The man in military uniform was tall and straight, with a stern face, and his cold side face looked like the most perfect statue under the sunlight, without any flaws.

Seeing Huo Yan like this, and thinking of how embarrassed she is now, Xi Ran gritted her teeth.

He walked over, a far-fetched smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Are you okay?"

Huo Yan didn't answer, but lowered his eyes and looked at him deeply.

Xi Ran suddenly panicked, he didn't know if Huo Yan had heard the conversation between him and Yu Cheng, but Huo Yan must have known everything that happened in the hotel today.

"Brother Huo, I didn't know you were still alive. My parents didn't allow me to marry you. In fact, I miss you very much." Xi Ran actually knew that when he was with Yu Cheng, Huo Yan would definitely not accept him But he didn't care, he just hoped that Huo Yan could help him.

"Brother Huo, can you help me? What happened before was really an accident. I, I was framed." Xi Ran knew that Huo Yan was capable of helping him. Uncle Huo's face, help me?"

Huo Yan finally spoke, "Xi Ran, don't let me see you go to my house again, this is my last advice."

After he finished speaking, he lifted his foot and left. He couldn't hold on now, and he had to go home before changing back into the beast form.

Looking at his back, Xi Ran suddenly collapsed, and shouted, "Do you think Xi Qing is a good person? Let me tell you, he didn't marry you because he likes you, he just wanted your family's property! "

The man who had already left suddenly appeared in front of Xi Ran again. With his appearance, the surrounding air pressure suddenly dropped. Xi Ran only felt the pain in his chest begin to spread, and the coercion of mental power crushed him inch by inch. air in the lungs.

Finally, when he felt that he was about to suffocate to death, the man's voice came again, "If I hear you say a word bad about him again, you will definitely not be able to bear the consequences."

It wasn't until Huo Yan left and the pain dissipated that Xi Ran slowly straightened up.

He looked at the direction where Huo Yan was leaving, with hatred and regret in his eyes, but what was more, it was jealousy that was getting deeper and deeper.

Huo Yan, I will make you regret it!

-

When Xi Qing heard the knock on the door, he thought it was Shen Jian who brought the little white dog over, and hurried to open the door, but the next second, he saw a silent profile.

Silence does not refer to appearance, but Huo Yan is really silent. Xi Qing opened the door for a long time, but he didn't say a word, just looked at Xi Qing fixedly.

Xi Qing was a little embarrassed by him, so he had to take the initiative to find a topic, "You, are you back?"

Huo Yan: "Yes."

Xi Qing: "People from the royal family, didn't you make things difficult for you?"

Huo Yan "They dare not."

Xi Qing "Would you like to come in and sit down?"

Huo Yan "I like to stand."

Xi Qing: "..." Marshal, I can't go on with your chatting style!

Maybe Huo Yan saw Xi Qing's speechlessness, he hesitated for two seconds, walked into the room... continued to stand.

He was standing, and Xi Qing was embarrassed to sit down, and Huo Yan always stood upright as if he was in the army, and with his cold eyes, Xi Qing seemed to see the instructor during the military training, and couldn't help but He also stood up in a military posture.

"I forgot to introduce you before. My name is Xi Qing. I'm Xi Ran's half-brother. I was called back by Xi's family two days ago. They asked me to complete the marriage contract for Xi Ran and make an engagement with you. I have something to ask The Xi family helped, so we agreed, if you can't accept it, we can terminate the engagement."

Xi Qing talked a lot, and said everything he needed to explain. He couldn't say that he agreed to the Xi family for the grass and land, he could only say that he was asking for something.

In the end, it was sincere to say that the engagement could be terminated. At first, Xi Qing thought that the Xi family had already discussed the change of candidates with the Huo family, but it was only today that they found out that the Huo family didn't even know about it.

So even if Huo Yan didn't come back, Xi Qing would take the initiative to find Mr. Huo. After all, they are also parties involved and have the right to make decisions.

"No! No need to cancel it! I can accept it!" Hearing Xi Qing's words, Huo Yan became anxious immediately.

He thought that Xi Qing had misunderstood that he liked Xi Ran, so he quickly explained, "I don't like Xi Ran. The engagement is because my father likes it, and because Xi's family insisted, it has not been broken."

Xi Qing frowned when he heard this, he thought that the Xi family did not support this marriage, after all they were so eager to replace Xi Ran with him.

But now it seems that the Xi family was very advocating this marriage contract before, and the reason why they changed their attitude later was only because the Huo family suddenly fell into trouble.

Xi Qing's shameless understanding of the Xi family has reached another level.

"There is still one year left, if you think we are not suitable, you can tell me." Huo Yan said, although he will not let this "inappropriate" happen.

Huo Yan was referring to a rule of the empire that after an engagement, couples will spend one year together. After one year expires, if they feel that it is not possible, they can go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to dissolve the engagement. If not, the engagement will be valid forever. .

"Okay." Xi Qing nodded with a smile.

In fact, Huo Yan still has a lot to say to Xi Qing, but he was delayed talking to Mr. Huo downstairs just now, and now he has no time.

He could only say, "I have something to do in the army during this time, so I have to stay there all the time. If you have something to do with me, you can contact Shen Jian."

"Okay, I remember." Xi Qing continued to nod.

The lighting in the guest room is very good, the sun shines in through the glass, and casts light and shadow on Xi Qing's body, maybe because he was dishonest when he slept last night, the young man's soft hair curled up slightly, and the curly hair was curled up smoothly. The movement of his nodding dangled back and forth, attracting Huo Yan's full attention.

Huo Yan looked at it for a long time, but still couldn't hold back, he stretched out his hand and gently rubbed Xi Qing's head.

"Goodbye."

Before Xi Qing came back to his senses, his back had disappeared into the corridor.

Host, are you stupid?The system saw Xi Qing standing there in a daze, motionless.

"Ah, no, just, Marshal, he's pretty good." Xi Qing suppressed the unconsciousness in his heart, looking for something to say.

The system is too lazy to dismantle other hosts. Our goal is to let others send us good person cards, not you.

Not long after Huo Yan left, Shen Jian came over, holding the sleeping Zhou Shi'an in his arms.

"I'm sorry, Adjutant Jiang took it to the pet shop to take a bath, so it was a bit late." Shen Jian handed the little white dog to Xi Qing.

Xi Qing smiled, "It's okay, I was negligent, and I haven't bathed it for a long time."

Shen Jian "Are you leaving tomorrow?"

"That's right." Xi Qing only took one day off, and he will be going back to school tomorrow.

"The school should be going for the mecha assessment soon. Do you need to buy a new mecha? I can take you to the mall." After Shen Jian finished speaking, he also explained, "I also graduated from Shangyou, so I know the courses better. .”

Xi Qing felt that Adjutant Shen was too smart, every word he said came to his heart, and he really planned to buy a set of mechas before leaving.

"It's really necessary, but don't bother, I can go by myself."

As soon as Xi Qing finished speaking, Shen Jian hurriedly said, "No trouble, besides, this is also a task assigned to me by the marshal, I hope you don't refuse."

Xi Qing could only nod his head and said, "Okay then, thank you."

The two left from Huo's house and came to the Mech Mall by hover car, but Shen Jian stopped Xi Qing from going in through the main entrance, pointed to another small door and said, "Let's go this way."

Xi Qing was a little puzzled, "Is there any difference?"

"It used to be an ordinary shopping mall. The mechas were not only expensive but also of mediocre quality. They were all used to deceive laymen, but the ones here are all genuine good mechas." Shen Jian said his lines without blushing.

"So that's how it is!" Xi Qing didn't expect that there was such a doorway in the interstellar world, so he quickly followed Shen Jian in.

Take the elevator to the fourth floor. As soon as the elevator door opened, a shopping guide with blond hair and red lips walked over. She smiled and asked, "Hello, what do you need?"

Shen Jian smiled and said, "Let's take a look at the mecha."

"Okay, this way." The shopping guide pointed to the front, and when Shen Jian and Xi Qing were walking forward, she suddenly turned around and typed a line of words on the optical brain!I see Mrs.

Then clicked send.

This place is very big and bright, but the only strange thing is that there are no mechas in the whole shop.

Xi Qing looked around suspiciously, "How do I buy this?"

Shen Jian was about to speak, when the shopping guide hurriedly answered, "We use high-end configurations, and we only need one test to pick out the most suitable mech for you."

Xi Qing: "Test? Mental power test?"

"Of course not, we don't buy such low-level things...equipment." Sensing Shen Jian's disapproving eyes, the shopping guide quickly changed his words.

She brought Xi Qing to an electronic screen, "Just put your hand on it, and this can also test your mental strength by the way."

Xi Qing nodded, and put his right hand in the middle.

Looking at the long white fingers on the electronic screen, the shopping guide opened the group chat again, and quickly entered the delivery date!The lady's hands are so beautiful!

Then put down the optical brain as if nothing had happened, and continued to say professionally, "Just wait for three seconds."

Three seconds passed, and soon, Xi Qing saw that the wall in front of him was suddenly sunken, and then, a three-meter-high mech gradually appeared from inside.

The whole body of the mecha was once bright silver, with a small amount of jet black decoration on the sides of the limbs, and the silver knives inlaid on both sides of the arms flashed a chilling cold light, just standing there motionless, people felt majestic and domineering .

"This is a 2s-level mecha, just in line with your s-level mental power, how is it, are you satisfied?" the shopping guide asked with a smile.

"I'm very satisfied, how much is the price?" Xi Qing nodded again and again, this is very good, especially to set off his temperament!

Shopping guide "You are an S-level spiritual talent that the empire is in short supply, so it's free."

Because I have seen related advertisements on Optical Brain before, Xi Qing did not doubt the truth of this sentence, nodded and said, "Then do I need to sign any documents?"

After all, the empire's training of S-level talents is not free, and there must be proof.

"Of course, just write down your contact information here. If you don't know how to use it later, you can ask me." The shopping guide pointed to the writing desk not far away.

Xi Qing smiled and walked over.

"Oh my God! Madam looks so pretty when she smiles!!"

As soon as Heidi posted this sentence in the group chat, she heard Shen Jian's dissatisfied voice, "I said you, restrain yourself a bit, it's almost enough."

"What's not enough? If you didn't happen to find the marshal, would I still need to pretend to be a shopping guide here to see my wife! If you have the ability, let me go!" Heidi couldn't get angry when she thought of this.

Shen Jian smiled, "I'm sorry, my wife and I met this morning..."

Before Shen Jian finished showing off, he saw that Xi Qing had put down the pen in his hand, and he quickly stood up seriously, "Have you finished writing?"

"Yes, is this okay?" Xi Qing handed the form to Heidi.

He always felt a little weird. Why did the mech questionnaire need to fill in the constellation and birthday, as well as his favorite color?Are you sure this isn't a hobby questionnaire?

Heidi quickly glanced at the questionnaire, and after confirming that Xi Qing's contact information was on it, she nodded, "Okay, I'll pack it for you right away."

Three minutes later, Xi Qing twisted the assembled mecha and went out, bidding farewell to this enthusiastic and somewhat over-the-top shopping guide.

"Are you going to Huo's house, or to the hotel?" Shen Jian asked after getting in the car.

Xi Qing was just about to say go to Huo's house, he bid farewell to Mr. Huo before returning to the hotel, but at this moment, his optical brain suddenly rang, and it was a message from Fang Xuan

"Xi Qing, come back quickly, people from the Academy of Sciences are here, they say you stole strawberries from the Academy of Sciences!"
