Chu Anqing paused.
She rubbed her hands around the beverage cup, murmuring softly:
“For this mission where we boarded the Skyspace Aircraft to capture Space-Time Particles in space.
...
Even if I don’t understand much about it, I can tell it’s not an easy task.
You and Teacher Liu Feng have compelling reasons; you both want Space-Time Particles; Senior Gao Yang and I are your friends, and of course, we would come to help you because of our relationship.
But what about Elder Sister Huang Que?”
Chu Anqing looked up, blinking her eyes, as if soul-searchingly gazing at Lin Xian:
“Elder Sister Huang Que doesn’t want Space-Time Particles...
so what reason does she have to help you so wholeheartedly?]
...
In an instant.
Lin Xian was stunned.
He had never thought about this question!
All this time, he never truly appreciated Huang Que, instead always complaining that she was an enigma.
He had also never thought about this question.
Because...
It was always Huang Que “leading” him.
Huang Que would pave each step for him, remind him of Catch Me If You Can, warn him to watch out for Zheng Chenghe, tell him that what he wanted was in the Mirror, sorted out the Skyspace Aircraft for him in advance, waited for him at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, and even made a special trip to Mi Country to save Chu Anqing who was there to cheer on-site.
This...
From this angle.
Huang Que was simply spoiling him too much, much like a mother dotes on her son...
Although it might be an exaggeration to say so, Huang Que indeed did that, thoughtfully guiding him at every step.
So much so that.
For so long.
He had taken it for granted, as if it should naturally be this way.
But Huang Que didn’t owe him anything.
“...”
Lin Xian fell silent.
He shifted his sitting position.
He thought over the question again.
Yet, he still couldn’t find a reasonable answer.
Chu Anqing was right.
Huang Que wasn’t targeted by the Seven Sins, nor was she locked onto by Kevin Walker, and she didn’t need the Space-Time Particle...
so why was she playing house so diligently with him, what was her goal?
Beep beep!
Lin Xian’s watch made a soft sound.
He looked at his wrist, it was a reminder he had set; the time was already 10:30 PM.
“It’s time to go back.”
Lin Xian turned his wrist, showing Chu Anqing the time:
“It’s time.”
“Eh~~ so soon!” Chu Anqing seemed not to have had enough:
“Geez, Elder Sister Huang Que, too, why doesn’t she let us stay out to ring in the New Year and do the countdown before heading back.”
“Maybe it’s for safety reasons,” he suggested.
Lin Xian stood up, pointing outside:
Lin Xian looked up.
At the same time, the chat page with Zhao Yingjun on WeChat popped open, and Huang Que’s voice also came synchronously—
[Happy New Year.] “Happy New Year.”
It was as if watching a movie, Lin Xian heard the voice and saw the subtitles simultaneously.
At this moment, he received the same New Year greetings from two women.
He nodded.
Looking at Huang Que:
“Thank you, and I wish you...
a Happy New Year too!”
Huang Que tilted her head and smiled.
Hands in her coat pockets, she turned straight around and, with the click-clack-click-clack of her high heels on the floor, walked into the lobby.
“Is that it...”
Lin Xian chuckled lightly and typed a reply on his phone to Zhao Yingjun:
“Thank you, and I wish you...
a Happy New Year too!”
...
Back at the dorm.
Spending a whole day shopping with Chu Anqing was truly exhausting.
It felt even more tiring than the daily training.
After washing up, he lay on the bed and checked the time.
00:27
“Let’s sleep.”
Exhausted.
He pulled the covers over himself and almost instantly fell asleep; Lin Xian entered dreamland.
...
...
Whoo...
The dry and scorching summer wind brushed against his face.
Before he went to sleep, he had felt a chill, but now, entering his dream, he was directly back in the hot summer of late August—an experience of both ice and fire.
He opened his eyes.
In front of him, were still the dozens of armed soldiers tightly surrounding him.
Same as the script of the hundreds of times before.
The man dressed as the captain came forward, throwing out an electronic arrest warrant:
“Lin Xian!
You are now being lawfully arrested on the charges of crimes against humanity, endangering Earth, and disrupting the space-time continuum!”
Heh.
Lin Xian smiled indifferently, looking up at the sky—
Suddenly!
He widened his eyes!
Before him, the once countless times quiet sky!
At this very moment!
Was dotted with more than a dozen huge zeppelin airships!
Each one enormously large!
Slowly flying!
Brilliantly lit!
Hovering over the city, they looked like an invading fleet!
Printed in the largest font on each of these vast zeppelin airships were the same shining advertisement words—
[The world’s finest Time Capsule!
