Knocking on the door and entering the lounge, Elmo had already put on the dress and was sitting on a chair waiting for the wedding banquet to start.There was no one else in the lounge, except Elmo, who looked a bit deserted.

"Congratulations." After entering the door, Qiao Xi said to Elmo.Whether Elmo likes it or not, he has to say it, it's a courtesy.

"Thank you..." Elmo twitched the corners of his mouth, smiling a little stiffly.

Seeing that Elmo's expression was not very good and his smile was forced, Lu Jia asked, "What's the matter?"

"I'm nervous." Elmo said truthfully.

Qiao Xi walked over, sat next to him, felt his hands were cold, and comforted him: "When I got married, you behaved very well throughout the whole process, so you know the process, there is nothing to be nervous about, just do it normally Just fine."

"That's what I said, but I always feel that something will go wrong." Elmo pursed his lips.

Qiao Xi can actually understand Elmo's nervousness quite well. Elmo is originally an introverted and innocent person, and has never followed such a big rule.Suddenly binding him within the rules and not allowing him to make mistakes, any individual would feel uneasy.

"It's okay. You and Thain entered together?" Qiao Xi asked.

"Well, he said it together." Elmo didn't have any idea, the process was decided by Thain and Thain's family, he just had to follow it.

"Then there is nothing to worry about. With Thain here, he will remind you." Qiao Xi said.In his opinion, Thain is a careful person and will not let Elmo make any big mistakes.

"Qiao Xi is right, just trust Thain." Lu Jia also reassured.

Qiao Xi looked around the lounge and asked, "Why don't you let your family come to accompany you? Where's your best man? It would be better if someone chats with you."

"They will be more nervous around me, why not let me calm down." Elmo pinched his fingers and said.

Qiao Xi smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll accompany you, don't be nervous."

"Yes." Elmo nodded.Seeing Qiao Xi did reassure him a lot, and for some reason, Qiao Xi could make him relax more than his family on this occasion.

Lu Jia sat on the soft stool opposite them, smiled and said: "Actually, it's okay to make a small mistake. When Leonard and I got married, I was also very nervous. When I was putting on the ring for him, my hand shook The ring fell off. Fortunately, Leonard reacted quickly and caught the ring. If it falls off the ground and rolls away, it will definitely be troublesome to find."

"Pfft." Elmo laughed, as if he felt a lot more relaxed.

Qiao Xi also laughed. She didn't expect that Lu Jia, who was always calm and thoughtful, would make such a mistake.

"Marriage is indeed a major event in life, but the wedding is not the most important thing, what matters is how to get along with each other in the future." Lu Jia laughed.

As a person who has experienced it, Lu Jia's words are indeed very reasonable, and they are reassuring, and they have found a direction for the future.

"I see, thank you. I feel much better now." Elmo smiled more naturally.

In order to keep Elmo in a good state, Qiao Xi changed the topic, and the three chatted about other things, so as not to always focus on the wedding and bring back the tension.

After all the guests arrived, it was time for the ceremony.Qiao Xi and Lu Jia returned to the banquet hall and sat in the seats assigned to them.Both Hesa ​​and Vera came today, but Qiao Xi and He Tian didn't sit at their table, but sat at Lu Jia and Leonard's side.This is also Thain's arrangement. He thinks that Qiao Xi and Lu Jia should be able to relax if they sit together.Also sitting at their table were some people from the mecha world, and these people were familiar with Luke.And none of these people had ever met Qiao Xi. Qiao Xi was not stupid, so she naturally knew that this was a special arrangement.Including all the guests present, none of Qiao Xi's acquaintances when he was learning mecha, and none of Saint Niaen's classmates were invited.

The wedding ceremony between Thain and Elmo went smoothly, and Elmo made no mistakes. Elmo's best man was his cousin, who looked like a very innocent child, and even more nervous than Elmo.But since there was nothing in particular that required him to do, there was no problem.

After the ceremony, the formal banquet began.Thain and Elmo also went to change their clothes and began to thank the guests table by table.The dishes prepared by Cooper's house are very good, not worse than Qiao Xi and He Tian's wedding banquet.There is no dish that Qiao Xi doesn't like, so he is not a picky eater either.

During the dinner, Qiao Xi and Lu Jia chatted casually, because all the people present were professionals, Lu Jia didn't talk about mechs with Qiao Xi.Occasionally, a few manufacturers would discuss with Lu Jia about problems with the mecha, and Qiao Xi would just listen in and learn something.

After chatting about an academic question, Lu Jia said to He Tian in a voice that he tried not to let others hear: "It's not a problem for Qiao Xi to stay at home like this all the time, let him come to my research institute, and I will help him arrange it." Other jobs. Always at home, you will be out of touch with society." He knew that this place was not suitable for talking about this issue, but he didn't know when the next time he would see He Tian.Regardless of selfishness or appreciation for Qiao Xi's talent, Lu Jia hoped that Qiao Xi would not leave behind the mecha manufacturing part.On the surface, he can arrange some irrelevant work for Qiao Xi, but when Qiao Xi really comes over, he can decide how to arrange it.

He Tian didn't even look at Qiao Xi, and said directly to Lu Jia, "No, it's better for him to be at home. If he's really bored, let his mother arrange something for him."

He Tian's refusal left Luga at a loss as to what to do next, Leonard patted Luga's leg quietly, signaling him to stop here.

Qiao Xi didn't say anything, and ate her food in silence.He Tian's refusal was almost in his expectation, but when he heard Professor Lu Jia's inquiry, he still had 1% hope, but now it seems that this 1% is too slim.

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while, but it happened that Thain and Elmo came over to thank them and eased the atmosphere.

Thain thanked everyone one by one and toasted. Elmo followed him with a very modest attitude. He didn't know how to drink, so he used fruit juice, but no one would care about these details, as long as the couple was happy.

After arriving at Qiao Xi's side, Thain said to them: "I will invite you alone tonight, teachers and professors, don't rush back, and Qiao Xi is not allowed to be absent."

Lu Jia smiled and said, "If you don't go home after the wedding banquet, come out to eat?"

"Well, I haven't seen you and Qiao Xi for a long time. It's right to invite you to dinner." Thain smiled, then patted He Tian on the shoulder and said, "You come too, otherwise I won't be responsible for sending Qiao Xi off." Xi go home."

"En." He Tian responded, and said, "I'll be here later, and I want to accompany my father to do some errands."

"Okay." Thain nodded simply, as long as He Tian can come.

Because of Thain's invitation, the three of them did not go back after the banquet except He Tian.Leonard took Lu Jia and Qiao Xi to a nearby coffee shop, and joined them after Thain and Elmo finished sending off the guests.

It was almost evening when Thain and Elmo finished their work, and both of them were starving. Although Thain asked someone to prepare food, they really didn't have much time to eat.So in order to take care of the two hungry people, the group went to the hotel booked by Thain early.

What Thain wants is a private room, so it is more convenient for everyone to talk.Some dishes have been ordered in advance, and they can be eaten when they arrive. Qiao Xi and the others can order whatever they want without delay.

The pre-ordered meals were served first, and Thain served Elmo soup, and the two bowed their heads to eat.Qiao Xi and the others were not too hungry, so after ordering a few dishes, they asked the kitchen to prepare them slowly.

Elmo slowed down when his stomach felt a little down, probably because the wedding was over, so the whole person relaxed.

"Qiao Xi, aren't you going to learn something? Are you bored at home all day?" Elmo asked as he put down his spoon.He has had very little contact with Qiao Xi recently. Since Qiao Xi stopped going to school, he is also a little lonely at school.

"I'm thinking about it." Qiao Xi smiled.In fact, he is not bored, but he can't touch the real parts, and he always feels that something is missing.

Lu Jia sighed, and said with disappointment in his eyes: "I originally wanted Qiao Xi to follow me, but He Tian disagreed."

"Professor, don't blame He Tian." Thain put down his chopsticks, sighed slightly, and said, "Originally I didn't want to talk too much about this matter, but either Qiao Xi or you, I have misunderstood He Tian. If I don't say it, I feel that He Tian's thoughts are wasted in vain."

"What?" Luke looked at Thain puzzled.

Qiao Xi also frowned slightly, waiting for the next sentence.

Thain took a sip of tea and said: "Actually, Teacher Leonard only knew about this matter, but He Tian didn't let him say it, and we couldn't say anything. The professor shouldn't be angry with the teacher. You know, the teacher has never been Someone who is used to saying that."

"It's actually not that easy for Qiao Xi to drop out of school. If he doesn't match He Tian, ​​then it's nothing, just drop out. But because it's He Tian, ​​he can't hide his identity. You and Qiao Xi may not be the same You know, there is a rule in the military academy that every student who is successfully matched will register the information of their matching partner, and it will not be made public, just for keeping files. This requires a matching certificate issued by the matching center, so He Tian does not Maybe Qiao Xi's identity can be concealed. The school is not stupid, how could it not be possible to see that He Tian's match is the Qiao Xi who studied in school?" I'm afraid no one knows more clearly about this matter than him.

Hearing what Thain said, Qiao Xi was a little confused. He really didn't know that the school had such a rule.

"If Qiao Xi's matter can't be covered up, then the military will definitely intervene, and Qiao Xi will be in trouble at that time. He Tian had no choice but to tell the prince and princess about it. In the end, the prince personally came forward and told He Tian Negotiate with the school together. As for what He Tian told the prince and princess, I don’t know. But the result of the negotiation is that He Tian graduated as a student of St. Niall’s School and made it public after graduation. Qiao Xi You can no longer touch mecha manufacturing, and it is best not to let people find out that he has used a fake identity." Thain said: "So He Tian didn't let Qiao Xi go to Mifei Star, in case he meets a classmate and is discovered What, it will be very troublesome. Locking Qiao Xi at home is also to hope that he will not have the opportunity to touch the mecha, otherwise if he is discovered, no one can help him."

The graduate schools of members of the royal family are as confidential as their identities. If He Tian publicly admits to being a student of Saint Niaen after graduation, then Saint Niaen will gain a very high status and reputation in the military academy. After all, they have cultivated such an excellent son as He Tian.It is absolutely profitable for the school to make this exchange with He Tian.

At this moment, Qiao Xi felt as if she was blocked by something.He really didn't expect that things turned out to be like this, He Tian was still protecting him behind his deceit.He was glad that when He Tian locked him at home, he didn't lose his mind and get angry at He Tian, ​​otherwise he might not be able to clean up the mess at all.

"Qiao Xi," Thain looked at Qiao Xi, and said, "Be nice to He Tian, ​​he deserves your trust. Also, although I don't know if I guessed it right, but as far as I know He Tian, ​​he recently talked to He Tian You are fighting coldly, just to let yourself not be soft-hearted, if he is soft-hearted and asks you to learn mechs or go to Miffel Star, you are likely to get into trouble because of it. So don’t blame him, he is just not good at expressing. "

Qiao Xi lowered her head, closed her hot eyes, and said, "Well, I understand."

Lu Jia sighed for a long time, and said with some self-blame: "I misunderstood He Tian."

Thain smiled and said: "If he hadn't discussed this matter with me, I'm afraid I would be the same as you, feeling very puzzled and dissatisfied with some of his actions."

Lu Jia nodded his head slightly, then patted Qiao Xi's shoulder without saying anything.He believed that Qiao Xi could understand what he meant. If Qiao Xi and He Tian could get together sincerely, they would be very happy.
