interstellar enemy

Anyway, it's important to get over this party first.Putting aside those scrutiny of the relationship between the two, Qiao Xi took the tongs, picked up all the things on the grill and threw them away. Eating mushy things is not good for your health.

"What do you eat?" Qiao Xi asked He Tian.

He Tian looked at him with deep eyes and said, "Anything is fine."

Qiao Xi nodded and got up to get food.Manshan smiled and returned to Bert.

After bringing back some food, Qiao Xi began to grill the meat in earnest. The charcoal fire was very strong, and small pieces of food such as meat skewers would be cooked in a short time.Qiao Xi distributed the beef skewers to He Tian and Thain, then spread a thin layer of oil on the chicken wings and meatballs, and began to roast them.

"You suddenly roasted meat, I thought someone had taught you." Thain said to He Tian while eating Qiao Xi's roasted meat.

"It doesn't look difficult." He Tian brushed on the dipping sauce and handed some to Qiao Xi.

Qiao Xi was also a little hungry, so she was not polite and ate while roasting.

"It's a good thing you brought Qiao Xi here, otherwise you would have to eat my roast today." Thain took a bite of Qiao Xi's roast meat and gave him a thumbs up.

He Tian grabbed a handful of raw meat skewers for him, and said, "Grill it yourself, he still has dinner."

Thain took the meat skewers. It's not that he doesn't know how to grill, but he feels that the grilled meat is not as delicious as Qiao Xi's.After thinking about it, Thain arranged the meat skewers next to Qiao Xi, so that Qiao Xi could flip through them for him, and all the roasted ones were his.

Qiao Xi doesn't talk much, he only speaks when someone talks to him.He Tian was in charge of fetching and eating, while Qiao Xi only took care of baking and eating.After coming down several times, Qiao Xi found that He Tianna was all his favorites, and there was no room for him to be picky at all.

Seeing that the relationship between Qiao Xi and He Tian was warming up, everyone present did not give them any more emotional lessons, and let them get used to each other slowly.

When both of them were full, He Tian checked the time, got up and said, "I'll take Qiao Xi home."

"So early?" Manshan felt that it was still early, and she had already ordered the servants to clean up the guest room for the guests to stay overnight.

"He has access control, and he has to go home before 9 o'clock." He Tian took his coat and put it on Qiao Xi.

Qiao Xi also stood up and said cooperatively: "The house is under strict control, I have to go back. Thank you for entertaining me, I'll go first."

After Qiao Xi said this, everyone couldn't force him to stay, and asked He Tian to return after seeing Qiao Xi off. He Tian nodded and left while holding Qiao Xi's hand.

In the evening, the wind got stronger, and He Tian's clothes on Qiao Xi were blown open. He Tian simply put his arms around Qiao Xi to make the clothes more snug.

After getting in the car, He Tian turned on the air conditioner, then started the car and left Bert's house.

Along the way, neither of them spoke.Qiao Xi didn't know what He Tian was thinking, he had already broken up, what's the point of that?

After arriving downstairs at Qiao Xi's house, He Tian parked the car in the parking space, turned off the engine and said, "Let's talk."

Qiao Xi unbuttoned her seat belt and asked, "What are you talking about?"

"Your behavior was a bit abnormal that day, so I had to doubt you after seeing the video. And you did use your brain. I don't know if you need to use your brain." He Tian looked at Qiao Xi, Said: "Also, I did not agree to break up, this is not something you decide unilaterally."

There was a tinge of anger in Qiao Xi's eyes, and he said coldly: "What do you mean it's not something that I can decide on my own? It's your business if you don't agree..."

Qiao Xi was interrupted by He Tian's movements before she could finish her sentence.He Tian held Qiao Xi's face with one hand, stroked the thick scab on his forehead with his fingers, and said in a low voice, "Have I applied your medicine before?"

Stiffened by his movements, Qiao Xi dodged for a while and said, "It's already been used up." The medicine for the last injury was used up.

He Tian took out a new ointment from the space button with some annoyance, and said, "Take it every morning and evening, and it won't leave scars."

"I don't want it." Qiao Xi didn't want to take anything from him.

He Tian frowned, put down the back of the passenger seat, Qiao Xi was caught off guard and lay down.He Tian pressed him on the chair, opened the ointment and applied it to him.

Qiao Xi was restrained by him and couldn't move. She shook her head and was afraid that He Tian would put the medicine in his eyes, so she simply let him go and said, "What's the use of applying it now?"

"It's useful." He Tian said affirmatively.

Qiao Xi didn't refute him anymore, she wanted to wait until he finished applying the medicine.But He Tian finished applying the medicine, but didn't let him go.

The two were so close that Qiao Xi could even feel He Tian's breath on his face, very light and warm.Qiao Xi's mind was spinning rapidly. He Tian's not wanting to break up should be a good thing for him. Thinking about it carefully, except that he was a little tired to a certain extent, He Tian treated him pretty well.Now He Tian is obviously here to ease the relationship, and the initiative is in his hands.Whether to continue this relationship or not, he should use this opportunity to settle the matter of copying the files.

After thinking about it for a moment, Qiao Xi's heart sank, and he said, "Okay, I admit, I copied the file."

He Tian's pupils shrank, and he asked fiercely, "What did you say?"

Qiao Xi looked at He Tian, ​​showing a sad and wronged expression, and said, "Listen to me, okay?"

He Tian let him go and sat back in the driver's seat without saying a word.

While observing He Tian's expression, Qiao Xi said, "I know I did something wrong, sorry. I was just too anxious..."

He Tian looked at him sternly, as if he wanted to strangle him to death.

"Professor Lu Jia has been guiding me. I know I should be satisfied, but...the longer I spend with you, the more I realize that I am not worthy of you at all." Qiao Xi looked at He Tian seriously, "Maybe I If I work hard for another ten years, I still won't be able to catch up with you in 20 years. So I desperately want to learn more, so that I can become a mecha master as soon as possible. By chance, I heard that Professor Keith said that Professor Jill can I’m tempted by the mech I’m driving. Actually, I also want to be a mecha warrior, but my physical fitness is not good. You know that not everyone can become a mecha warrior. I’m just an ordinary person, but I want to fight side by side with you. I I wanted to know what the mechanism of that kind of mecha is. I didn’t have the opportunity to enter Professor Jill’s laboratory. But the air conditioner in the reading room suddenly broke down that day, and the maintenance staff said that I could go to Professor Jill’s laboratory. I didn’t do it at first. He thought, but when he saw the optical brain with Professor Jill's name on it, he couldn't control his thoughts."

Qiao Xi lowered her head and lowered her voice, trying to adjust her tone and speed, "Actually, I am also very scared, afraid that others will find out, and even more afraid that if you know, you will definitely look down on me and think that I am not worthy to be by your side But I really just want to learn more and see if there is a chance to go to the battlefield with you. I don’t want to do bad things. I have also thought a lot these days, because my eagerness for quick success not only didn’t benefit, but also followed You fell out. At first you asked me, I didn’t dare to admit it, but keeping this secret made me feel even more uncomfortable, and I couldn’t sleep well. It’s all my fault anyway, you can hand me over to Professor Jill, I should Take responsibility for what you did wrong."

After listening to Qiao Xi's words, He Tian's anger actually faded a lot.Even his mother said that standing with him would feel stressful, let alone Qiao Xi?Since he knew Qiao Xi, this was the first time that Qiao Xi expressed his thoughts openly and honestly. He Tian didn't know how to get angry with such Qiao Xi.Since Qiao Xi wanted to steal information, all the abnormal and cautious behaviors that day made sense.But having said that, even if Qiao Xi took that information, what could she do?It is impossible to publish it, so is it necessary to build mechas?It's not that he looks down on Qiao Xi, but with Qiao Xi's current ability, it's simply a fantasy.

Seeing that He Tian's attitude seemed to be a little relaxed, Qiao Xi continued to insist: "Actually, I can make up a legitimate reason for the fact that I have used my brain, but I don't want to lie to you again. I feel uncomfortable if I lie to you. Now put Let me be clear, you can expose me if you want, anyway, I made mistakes first." Qiao Xi thinks that He Tian is the kind of person who prefers soft words to hard things, so speaking soft words is more effective than confronting him.

In fact, he can really make up a legitimate reason for using the optical brain, but he didn't leave fingerprints on the optical brain, so no matter how he looks at it, he is prepared, so it is better to admit it than to make up a lie that will not work. , and then distort the original intention of copying the file, it feels more believable.To be honest, the video recorded by You Hui was indeed beyond his expectation, and it also broke his original plan to let go of himself silently.In the final analysis, it was his own carelessness, and he had to learn a lesson in the future.

He Tian was silent for a long time, and said, "Go back to class on Monday."

Qiao Xi was a little hesitant. He couldn't figure out what He Tian's attitude was now, and he might cause trouble again when he went back to class.

He Tian didn't say much, opened the door of the passenger seat, and said, "Go back."

He Tian didn't express his opinion, Qiao Xi still had no idea, but he couldn't rely on the car because of the eviction order.

"Then I'll go back first." After finishing speaking, Qiao Xi got out of the car.The moment the car door was closed, He Tian started the car and drove away.

The rhetoric made up with so much effort seems to have little effect, and Qiao Xi can't help but feel a little disappointed.But since He Tian didn't arrest him immediately to see Professor Lu Jia, there should be room for resolution of this matter.He will wait and see again.

When He Tian returned to Bert's house, he didn't say much. Everything seemed normal, and he and Qiao Xi seemed to be getting along well.But others couldn't understand, Thain knew He Tian, ​​but he didn't ask immediately, but waited until the party was over and the two went home before speaking.

"You didn't have a good talk with Qiao Xi?" Thain felt that although He Tian didn't talk much, he should have no problem communicating with others.

He Tian told Thain that Qiao Xi admitted to copying with a blank face.

After listening to He Tian's words, Thain was a little surprised at first, and then he became a little clear, and smiled: "Do you remember? We were separated when we first learned mechs. You followed Teacher Leonard, my teacher. I am an ordinary mecha trainer. Then every time we fight in the training room, I always lose. Later, I staggered my training time and yours, and went to Teacher Leonard with you for various reasons. In fact, I I also went to steal my teacher, but the reason was that I wanted to play with you or go with you when I was bored."

He Tian turned to look at him, it was true.At that time, he just thought that Thain had no other playmates, so he wanted to spend time with him.

"Actually, after listening to you, I can understand Qiao Xi. My father told me since I was a child that I will follow you in the future, and I must not be weak in mecha operation. So I have always been under great pressure, especially the one who always loses. Time." Thain smiled and said, "You sure don't know, every time I go to the training room with you, I seem to be watching, but in fact I secretly record what Teacher Leonard taught you, and then go home to practice every night .Actually, Mr. Leonard has seen through this little trick of mine, but he didn’t say anything. Later, he found my father and said that he was willing to accept me as a student, so I started to study with you. Until I was tied with you, I let go of that pressure."

He Tian frowned and said, "You don't have to do this." Even though Thain couldn't control the mecha well, he was still his most trusted friend.

"I don't want to hold you back, and I hope that I will fight side by side with you based on my strength, rather than relying on the love we grew up with." Speaking of this now, Thain is already very relaxed, but at that time, the mood of the people was different. The memory is still fresh, "Qiao Xi's thoughts should be the same as mine at the time. I was young at the time, so my methods were clumsy. Qiao Xi's methods are indeed not straightforward, but in the end, I just want to learn more and be worthy of you." That's all. Everyone may make mistakes because of people or things they care about, but not all mistakes are so unforgivable. Qiao Xi took the risk of taking a document that he couldn't understand, but it was in vain. And with his learning speed, It is estimated that Professor Jill has already built the mecha, and he may not understand the theory in the information."

He Tian listened silently. Indeed, it would be great if Qiao Xi could independently build a fourth-level mecha when she graduated, and build a high-level mecha in one step, unless Professor Lu Jia helped.

"Qiao Xi just wanted to learn, and did not bring any loss to Professor Jill and the Institute because of taking the materials. Since he realized that he made a mistake, he would not make it again. If it was me, I would be willing to give it to him again. Opportunity." Thain smiled from the heart.In his opinion, as long as it is for He Tian, ​​some innocuous tricks are not worth mentioning at all.

"I'll think about it again." He Tian didn't express his opinion immediately,

Sean smiled and said nothing.He was just offering some ideas of his own. As for what He Tian wanted to do, he would not interfere and would respect He Tian's choice.
