Chapter 349: The Favorite of the End Times (29)
Something has changed, and nothing has changed.
Not being able to understand is another.
What Qiao Xi couldn't understand was that even though they had such an intimate relationship, he still suppressed his emotions. She thought this incident would become Guan Zhiyuan's emotional outburst, but it didn't.
She wanted to wait until the day when her emotions accumulated to the point of exploding.
However, when Guan Zhiyuan turned around, everything returned to normal.
Maybe another opportunity is needed?
The twilight rolled up the soft, light clouds like a veil, covering the setting sun that fell on the mountainside. The absurd reality of repeating the same mistakes continued the old dreams of the past.
But it was just a single encounter of passionate love, so short that it slipped away like the time between fingers.
In every dream of Guan Zhiyuan from now on.
The forgotten and relieved things that should have been said were never seen again, but the heroine was named Qiao Xi.
Self-deception continues in the dream.
The sequel to the story that has not yet been written in reality.
Whether it was the sofa, chair, living room or bedroom, wherever Guan Zhiyuan looked, it seemed that there was still some emotion left after the madness, but the temperature had long since cooled down.
He erased all traces of Qiao Xi's existence.
It was so clean that not a single spot was left, except for the mark that Qiao Xi left on him, as if he could still feel the scorching heat of their passionate embrace.
Conflicting feelings.
Guan Zhiyuan couldn't understand what he meant to Qiao Xi.
Will she hate him?
Yes, disgust is inevitable. Otherwise, she wouldn't have taken revenge on him in this way. This masochistic feeling of slow slicing tortured his heart and gave him a brief moment of madness.
And asked him to continue watching her and the base looked like this.
For Guan Zhiyuan, it was only pain and torture, like a rat in a dark sewer. He was oppressed and heavy, surviving to the point of suffocation. There would never be any light between him and her.
And he is in this degenerate game.
They lost everything, both physically and mentally, and were completely enslaved, dominated and surrendered.
Only his reason was resisting.
But Guan Zhiyuan knew that Qiao Xi only needed to say one word. As long as she said that she was bored and wanted to find some fun to kill time, she wanted to play a trick on him.
Even if reason wants to struggle and resist.
His honest physical instinct would follow the overwhelmed emotions and he would willingly offer himself completely, even though he knew it was just a casual act and that it was her entertainment.
Ling Chi's love is full of wounds.
Is this also Qiao Xi’s punishment?
***
Inside the office of the base commander A.
"So, Base D wants someone?"
Qiao Xi half-lay on Gu Xuanye's desk, watching the man flipping through the document in his hand.
"Well, they often come to us to ask for people."
Gu Xuanye also sighed slightly. Base D often used various excuses to openly ask Base A for high-level psychics, saying that they were for employment.
Can't find any fault with it.
In addition, we really need to protect those high-end talents, so we agreed to the other party's wishes.
"I see."
Qiao Xi nodded, not quite understanding, and watched Gu Xuanye flipping through the documents to select the psychic: "Brother Xuanye, can I go with you to take a look? You promised to let me go before."
As a result, it was not implemented yet.
This matter was repeatedly delayed.
"Then Xixi, do you want to go back with the people sent by Base D? They will come and examine the person in person."
The man's big hand fell on her head and rubbed it.
"OK."
Qiao Xi agreed without thinking. Generally speaking, a base commander cannot go to other bases without special circumstances. After all, the base commander of each base is the strongest one in his or her respective base.
The situation is special now.
They need to stay in their respective bases.
Qiao Xi was a little confused and didn't understand why Gu Xuanye agreed so readily to let her go back with the people sent by Base D.
but.
When she saw the person, she understood instantly.
Wow, an entire team of women. No wonder they were so confident in letting her go to Base D. The leader was a gentle-looking woman, elegantly spoken and graceful.
You can tell at first glance that he has received higher education.
Qiao Xi unexpectedly spotted someone familiar in the group. It was Michelle Mi, whom she hadn't seen for a long time. She was dressed casually and smartly, looking much more mature than before.
And when Michelle Cha was in the reception room.
When he saw Qiao Xishi sitting with Gu Xuanye, his expression almost broke. It was as exciting as it could be.
If it's not the right occasion.
Michelle Yim would probably quickly pull her over and ask her what was going on.
The two sides had friendly exchanges.
The people selected by Gu Xuanye all volunteered to go to Base D. After their supernatural powers passed the test, the gentle woman who was in charge of Base D nodded with satisfaction.
When they learned that Qiao Xi wanted to go with them to visit Base D.
I readily agreed.
The commander of Base A still had to give the other party some respect. Furthermore, Base D had a relatively good relationship with Base A, so this wasn't a big deal.
Before leaving.
Gu Xuanye's action of pulling Qiao Xi to kiss goodbye shocked the people at Base D again.
Qiao Xi was also confused.
But the man didn't care at all, and whispered in her ear, telling her not to forget to come back at night.
Gu Xuanye knew the peculiarity of her supernatural powers.
Qiao Xi originally wanted to teleport directly and take them back to Base D to save time and effort.
However, Gu Xuanye frowned and disagreed with her decision.
Although the girl can teleport directly there with the people from base D, the energy consumption of using this kind of power is too great, and the more people there are, the more her power will be consumed.
So if it was just Qiao Xi herself.
It should just be normal consumption.
Qiao Xi probably also knew that he couldn't explain it clearly.
Then she should just take the bus with the people from Base D. It will only take about two hours.
Haven't seen you for a long time.
Michelle Mi has been very busy since she arrived at Base D. Although she was selected, she has no relevant work experience and needs to learn many things from scratch.
After she went to Base D.
I had my own personal account and originally wanted to contact Qiao Xi, but I thought that Qiao Xi might not have a personal account, only the team account of Base C.
She just let it go.
After all, the team account is used by their entire team, and Wen Renyuan also knows the account password and can log in.
She didn't want this person to see her chat history.
I saw a joke before.
A qualified ex should be like dead.
So she gave up the idea and focused on improving herself. She would occasionally log into the team account to check, but there was no news.
Some have a few messages.
It was also Dongfang Xian who asked her how she was doing at Base D, or how Wen Renyuan was doing at Base B.
Very strange.
Didn’t you ask Qiao Xi?
If Mi Xuecha remembered correctly, she remembered that in the team account, there was a period of time when Dongfang Xian often looked for Qiao Xi to ask where Qiao Xi was and whether she was missing.
However, these messages were not responded to.
Now see Qiao Xi again.
However, I never thought that the other party was actually in Base A, and was behaving intimately with the base commander of Base A. This relationship cannot be summarized in a few words.
The car had just driven out.
Mi Xuecha couldn't hold it in any longer. She didn't even have time to reminisce about the past. There was no one else here who was trustworthy enough to talk to.
She immediately sat next to Qiao Xi.
The girl noticed her coming and looked up at her and smiled: "Senior Sister Mi, long time no see."
Still a polite and courteous greeting.
It seemed that Qiao Xi had never changed, but Mi Xuecha no longer had the trace of the girl who was always wary and timid towards everyone in the past.
"You and the base commander of Base A?"
She asked directly.
The base commander looked to be the same age as her. Mi Xuecha was surprised when she first saw the base commander of Base A. She didn't expect that there would be such a young base commander.
and.
I heard that this base commander is the first one to have dual superpowers at the maximum level, and his combat power is the ceiling among superpower users.
He is also in charge of such a large base A.
Her methods are mature, sophisticated and decisive, which doesn't seem like those of their age at all. Michelle Yim also admires her.
She had seen the message on the team account before.
Knowing that Dongfang Xian and the others said Qiao Xi was missing and were preparing to go look for her, they also asked those who had gone out to let the team know if they had any news.
Michelle Yim saw it and took notice.
But later I saw Dongfang Xian’s message saying that Qiao Xi had been found, but the girl had moved to another base.
There was no further news after that.
From then on, Dongfang Xian never mentioned Qiao Xi again.
Later, their team's account was automatically disbanded, and Michelle Mi never paid attention to these things again.
but.
Even though Michelle Yim had a bit of a reaction time, she still smelled something fishy. Dongfang Xian was a person who could get along well with anyone, men and women alike.
I cared so much about Qiao Xi before.
But now he is avoiding me so much that anyone can see that something is wrong.
Michelle Mi, who was originally lurking around to watch, was itching to ask, but since this was the team account, and she thought her ex-boyfriend might see it, she held back.
Now meet Qiao Xi in person.
Mi Xuecha immediately started to eat melons and asked all the gossips she wanted to ask, such as what happened between Qiao Xi and the captain of Base A, and what happened between Qiao Xi and Dongfang Xian.
Why is she at Base A?
Qiao Xi tilted her head and thought for a moment, as if choosing her words, while Mi Xuecha stared at her expectantly.
Even the other people in the same car at Base D.
They all pricked up their ears to listen to gossip.
"Brother Xuanye? There's nothing complicated about the relationship. He likes me, so he stayed. Senior Dongfang confessed his feelings to me, but I rejected him. He didn't give up, so I told him I had a boyfriend, and he gave up."
Qiao Xi gave a brief summary.
There was no emotion in the little girl's sweet and relaxed voice, but these few short sentences made Michelle Yim imagine a love triangle in her mind.
There are too many complaints.
For a moment I didn't know where to start.
Qiao Xi held her chin up and looked out the window, feeling extremely bored.
She was a good, honest child who only liked to tell the truth. She told Michelle when she asked.
"Then why are you at Base A?"
Mi Xuecha obviously didn't expect that Qiao Xi had such a rich romantic experience. She had been working at Base D for so long, but it seemed that she had never encountered any romantic encounters.
But his business is booming.
It can't be smooth.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have been promoted from internship to full-time position and to my current position after just over a year of employment. I can follow the team to represent Base D and go to other bases for exchanges.
"Brother Xuanye found me, so I came here. We knew each other before."
Qiao Xi sighed slightly and looked very troubled.
"Sister, I really envy you. Base Captain A is truly an elite among the elites in the Rocketry class, with excellent character and academic performance. You'll make a lot of money by being with him, okay?"
A female team member driving in front finally couldn't help but interrupt.
Obviously.
She simply ignored what Qiao Xi had said before, which had nothing to do with Gu Xuanye.
Michelle Yim didn't ignore it.
"Do you like Captain A? You said it was okay, so why did he kiss you? You two are so close, it doesn't look like it's okay."
"I don't like it. Even if there is a relationship, it's only a physical one."
Qiao Xi's straightforward words stunned Mi Xuecha, and she almost broke down.
What is this that can be said directly?
The people in the car also gasped.
This time, the melon eater turned his head and looked behind them. His eyes were like wolves staring at lambs, holding Qiao Xi tightly, wishing she could continue quickly.
"What are you talking about? Little girls don't understand, so don't talk nonsense."
Michelle Yim's face flushed. This kind of topic was too confusing for her. How could she talk about such things openly?
However, Qiao Xi was puzzled.
The girl's clear and beautiful eyes were full of doubts, so pure and clean that there was not a single complicated emotion, as if she was watching something very ordinary and had no evil thoughts about it.
She looked at Michelle Yim's face which was gradually turning red.
It dawned on me in an instant.
"I'm not making this up, that's how we are. It's just a matter of mutual consent, so please don't try to imitate me. It's a very unkind act."
Qiao Xi's serious lecturing didn't seem like he was lying.
Michelle Tea spat.
"If this is true, then you also know that if you don't love yourself, you still make the same mistake again and again? You have to rely on your own strength to gain respect. Don't be so depraved."
Qiao Xi lowered her eyelashes to hide the loneliness in her eyes.
"I know, but I don't have the carefreeness of my senior sister, so I can't do it. Brother Xuanye likes me and is willing to give me the best living conditions, so I followed him. This is the lifestyle I chose."
That’s what everyone said.
Mi Xuecha was also speechless. She couldn't understand why the girl became like this.
but.
The people at Base D suddenly understood.
Some also nodded in agreement.
"Indeed, the world isn't as bright as you think. Some people use their bodies to gain resources, and this is not uncommon in the apocalypse. But girl, you're lucky. The captain of Base A has taken a fancy to you, and he's young and devoted. Although his methods are a bit inappropriate, I think you could consider being with him."
The female team member continued.
"Men are always a bit playful when they are young. It's rare to find someone as devoted as Base Captain A. Take advantage of this opportunity. He probably really loves you, so he's willing to use this method to get you."
Qiao Xi just smiled and said nothing.
How to say it.
Shouldn't the essence of this behavior be resisted and condemned?
However.
The disguised image of Gu Xuanye is deeply rooted in people's hearts.
Even this kind of despicable and disgusting misconduct can be whitewashed as kidnapping in the name of love after he has acquired strength, power, status and position.
Even being young and handsome is an extra bargaining chip.
It really is...
It's the same no matter what era it is. Her identity as a "sleeping companion" that should have been despised was understood and whitewashed by others.
Too cheap.
It will probably be like before. Only after it is completely exposed can the filter in people's eyes be broken.
And that hypocritical good guy persona.
"Qiao Xi..." Mi Xuecha looked at the girl beside her who lowered her eyes and fell silent, frowning slightly, not knowing what to say.
She vaguely felt that something was wrong.
When Michelle Mi returned to Base C when her ability level was five, people she used to know greeted her and were surprised to learn that her ability had reached level five.
Then he said.
"Hey, your powers are the same as our base commander's. And your fighting skills are so strong. I feel sorry for your future boyfriend. It's so pitiful."
It was a joke from the other party at the time.
Mi Xuecha was stunned. She also realized that something was wrong, but she didn't know how to refute the other party.
Now I understand.
She wasn't strong enough yet, not strong enough to make everyone shut up.
Michelle Mi's gaze gradually became firm.
She must make Qiao Xi return to the right path. She cannot let the girl waste such good superpowers and youth in vain. She must make Qiao Xi change this point of view!
Meanwhile, Qiao Xi was distracted by the scenery.
He had no idea that in Michelle Yim's heart, he had become a misguided figure.
The lively atmosphere in the car did not diminish, and the group successfully arrived at Base D. As soon as they got off the car, Michelle Cha took the initiative to propose.
"Qiao Xi, let me take you to visit Base D!"
"OK."
After all, it's just a visit, why does he look so motivated and ready to do something big?
Qiao Xi was confused but didn't say anything and followed Mi Xuecha.
