After Xiao returned, Wendy planned to take him to take a shower first. Wang Ming was still making dinner, and he said there would be activities that evening.
I don't know what the specific event is.
By the time the two of them finished showering and came out, dinner was ready.
"Mmm, it smells so good." Wendy and Xiao, who had just come out, immediately smelled the aroma of the food. When they saw that the food was already laid out on the table, the two of them quickly went over. They had changed into casual white t-shirts and gray pants.
The sun was already setting in the west, casting a warm golden glow on the country cottage and giving Wendy and Xiao a thin golden coating, making them look radiant and captivating at first glance.
"All done washing, come and eat." Wang Ming called to Wendy and Xiao. Wendy had sold everything that afternoon, and the earnings were enough for them to eat for several days without doing anything on the show.
"It smells so good." Wendy sniffed it, and had to admit that Wang Ming's cooking skills were indeed quite good.
After a pleasant dinner, it was time for the activities.
Wendy looked at the moon curiously. Tonight, just as he had expected, the moonlight was perfect. Then, Wengyu and Wanqiu came out, each carrying a basin of water for washing feet. "Come soak your feet, and then, drink some wine," Wang Ming said with a smile. "I also want to try what this wine that Wendy highly praised tastes like." "Haha, whatever makes you happy. It's fine, it's very delicious. I don't even get drunk from drinking it."
Hearing Wendy say that, Wang Ming and He Ning were relieved. He Ning said to Wanqiu, "Little sister, just have one drink. Drinking too much is not good for girls." "Okay, Teacher Wang." Wanqiu nodded obediently. Then He Ning poured a glass of wine for Wang Ming and Weng Yu, half a glass for Wanqiu, and a full glass for Wendy and Xiao.
"The moon is beautiful tonight, and the wine is lovely." Wendy held her glass up to the moon, then glanced at Xiao beside her, who was taking small sips of wine. "And you have a beautiful woman by your side." This remark made Xiao choke quite a bit, and Wendy burst out laughing at Xiao's embarrassed expression. She laughed very loudly.
"Hahaha, am I wrong? You're a stunning beauty now. If you entered the entertainment industry, you'd be able to outshine everyone. Hahaha." Wendy laughed heartlessly. Xiao wiped the wine from his mouth and glared at Wendy with a hint of speechlessness. Wendy just blinked, but her eyes were full of smugness.
At night, everyone chatted. Xiao, who was not good with words, rarely spoke. Wendy listened to the four of them chatting, occasionally interjecting a few words, which amused everyone.
When they went to sleep that night, Xiao and Wendy slept in the same room. Xiao silently hugged Wendy from behind and buried his face in the crook of Wendy's shoulder. "What's wrong?" Because Wang Ming, He Ning, and Weng Yu were sleeping very soundly due to the strong aftereffects of the alcohol, Wendy spoke very softly. Xiao didn't move, but just hugged her gently.
"Okay, I'm fine. Let's think about what to do next." Wendy sighed. "There's the wedding, and then there's training after the wedding, and time is really tight..." "Hmm." Xiao mumbled. Wendy comforted Xiao by stroking his hair. It was smooth, not greasy, and clean, as if it had just been washed.
I don't know what's wrong with Xiao today. Wendy racked her brains but couldn't figure it out. In the end, it all came down to that drink. Could it be that Xiao isn't a good drinker? Hmm, it seems so. It seems that Xiao usually doesn't drink at all. Although Diluc's drink is very pleasant, it also has a strong aftereffect. Xiao seems to be showing his true feelings now.
"Xiao, look at me." Wendy turned Xiao's face towards her and looked at him. Xiao's once sharp face was now soft, and his eyes were curved like an innocent big dog looking at you. Now, Xiao's golden pupils were full of tenderness. Wendy admitted that her heart was indeed hit hard.
"Wendy," Xiao said. Wendy was momentarily dazed and subconsciously asked, "What's wrong?" "I like..." Xiao said softly. Wendy felt as if her heart had been struck by something, and then she saw Xiao press down on her.
"Wait a minute, at least... at least, soundproofing..." Wendy finished setting up the soundproofing before losing consciousness.
As a result, Wendy completely ignored Xiao the next day, and no matter how much she tried to coax him, Wendy simply wouldn't respond.
"Don't be angry." Xiao wasn't good at comforting people either, and he was in a dilemma looking at Wendy's sullen face. After all, he really didn't know how to comfort people, and he was the one who made the mistake last night. Wendy glanced at Xiao, then turned her head away.
Their next destination was the Mech Academy, a newly established academy in the Dragon Kingdom. Students could control mechs to fly and travel through the air, but the admission requirements were extremely high. Wendy only obtained permission to enter after contacting the person in charge there.
Unlike the students who study seriously, Wendy and Xiao need to master all the operating methods of the mech in the shortest amount of time, and they need to master them proficiently without making any mistakes.
This indicates that the two are in a rush, since the next time they'll be in space.
Would the Eye of God still be useful in space?
Wendy didn't know, but she still needed to be fully prepared.
After meeting the person in charge and the very enthusiastic classmates, Wendy and Xiao finally arrived in front of the mecha.
Looking at the towering mech in front of them, Wendy and Xiao admitted they were shocked. However, before they could be shocked for long, they had to get their hands on it.
After a brief explanation, Wendy and Xiao had to figure out the controls themselves, mastering each operation and familiarizing themselves with each keystroke. Time flew by.
After Wendy and Xiao finally familiarized themselves with the internal buttons and other components of the mech, the voice of national destiny finally rang out.
"The sixth stage of the national fortune begins. All contestants, please prepare yourselves." When the announcement of the national fortune rang out, Wendy and Xiao were resting. After a week of intensive training, Wendy and Xiao's mech piloting skills were comparable to some outstanding newcomers, but they still lacked practical combat training.
With a flash of white light, Wendy and Xiao seemed to have arrived at a main street where people were hurrying by, and hovercars could be seen overhead. Large screens around them were broadcasting the news.
"A federal survey shows that nearly half of the population did not want to see the Union lose..."
"The Alliance recently declared that it demands the Federation surrender as soon as possible, or it will use force to suppress them... Our Ministry of Foreign Affairs has stated that we are not afraid; let's fight if we want..."
