Chapter 155 Men Have Too Many Troubles
At the end of the letter, she drew three stick figures holding hands using the level of a child's sketch, and wrote a name on top of each stick figure's head: Liu, Guan, and Zhang.
After she finished the painting, she held it up and looked at it carefully, smiling with satisfaction. She thought Anubis must know what she meant.
This friendship is so precious to Qiao Susu that she even secretly does not respond to Anubis' confession because she does not want to lose a friend, so she expresses her feelings in this way.
In fact, she didn't realize at first that her love for Anubis was completely different from her love for Luka and Zongfang. It felt like walking in the foggy morning, and a drizzle of rain fell from the sky. When she came to her senses, she realized that she was soaked.
Do you think it's strong?
But that was the purest, immature and slow love, and it was also a love that would never be repeated in a lifetime. She didn't know how Anubis entered her heart, but she only knew that every time she thought of him, she always had an indescribable sense of security.
Some people may not be able to amaze time at the beginning, but they can definitely soften the years. Anubis is the latter.
Qiao Susu set the time of the second time capsule to one year from now, then sealed the two capsules in an iron box, buried them in a pit, and flattened the ground with her feet.
She was afraid that she would forget the location, so she scattered another seed on the land. This was a berberis tree that could only survive in the southern battlefield. She took it from Zongfang's petri dish before coming out.
Qiao Suisui squatted there in a daze for a while, muttering to herself: "If you read the letter by then, and we still like each other, then let's be together. Then I will stay, forever."
Zong Fang hung up the phone and walked towards Qiao Susu. Seeing that she was still squatting there, concentrating on looking at something, he walked over and touched her head.
"Let's go, the temperature is going to rise soon."
Qiao Suisui nodded in agreement. When she saw Zongfang wanted to hold her hand, she hurriedly dodged: "My hands are dirty."
She had just been digging a hole and burying the soil, and her hands were now full of sand.
Zongfang, however, pulled her hand back in front of him, then leaned over, grabbed a handful of sand and threw it away.
He clasped her hand tightly with his sandy hand and said, "I'm dirty too."
Qiao Susu was stunned and let him lead her back.
In the same scene, if Luka was there, he would have wiped her hands clean with his clothes and then held her hand. But Munakata chose to get dirty with her and never let go.
The two of them walked hand in hand on the yellow sand, and a group of people came towards them, seemingly having been waiting for a long time.
Qiao Susu squinted her eyes, then opened them wide in surprise.
"Ash!"
She waved to Liberi, but Liberi's eyes were fixed on their holding hands, his face gloomy.
Libery walked towards her almost the first second he saw her, and now he hugged her tightly regardless of anything else. He leaned over and buried his head in her neck, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.
“I’m going crazy with worry.”
Qiao Susu patted him on the back. Seeing that the group of people including Wu Yang he brought with him lowered their heads consciously, she couldn't help feeling embarrassed.
"Okay, okay, I'm fine, right? Besides, you should pay attention to your image in front of your subordinates."
An orc with good hearing heard this and couldn't help thinking: The image of Sun as a henpecked man has always been deeply rooted in people's minds, so there is nothing to pay attention to.
Liberi held her tightly and kept intimate with her for a while before reluctantly separating. During this time, Zong Fang stood behind Qiao Suisui and watched coldly.
Zong Fang raised his wrist to check the time, walked forward, and directly pulled Qiao Suisui's arm and pulled her behind him. He didn't say a word, but it seemed like he said everything.
Libery raised his chin slightly and stared at him.
The two people's eyes met in the air, and there seemed to be crackling electric lights.
Qiao Sui Sui poked her head out from behind Zong Fang and said, "Well, how about we go in first?"
Liberi left a team of people to guard, and the others returned to the warship to check the equipment to ensure that they could set off tomorrow. Then they followed Qiao Suisui back to the shelter. As soon as they came in, Carl immediately came to meet them. After seeing that Zong Fang behind Qiao Suisui looked very bad, he caught a glimpse of Liberi who was following at the end.
The two men met each other and were both stunned.
Why is there another one?
Libery's face suddenly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
"Hey, what brings you here?" Karl folded his arms and sneered.
Liberi's eyebrows were grim, and he glanced at him without any expression. Then he walked past Zong Fang and pulled Qiao Suisui's hand, saying, "Sui Sui, talk to me."
The next second, Zong Fang and Carl took action at the same time to stop him.
Zong Fang said, "Just say whatever you want to say here."
Karl looked at him unkindly and said nothing, but he meant the same thing.
Liberi sneered and said self-deprecatingly: "Sui Sui, I don't even have the qualifications to talk to you alone now, right?"
Qiao Suisui suddenly felt a surge of pressure, "No, Ash, you..."
What could she say? She wanted to say, "Don't get me wrong," but she couldn't explain it. Zong Fang was fine. Even if Liberi was not happy before, he had been with him in the imperial court for a while and they were able to maintain superficial harmony. But if he knew that Karl thought of this, Qiao Sui Sui shuddered. These two people had never gotten along from the beginning.
Finally, the four of them sat down in the living room and the atmosphere was tense.
Liberi spoke first: "Sui Sui, I came here specifically to take you back."
Qiao Suisui lowered her head, like a child who had made a mistake, and whispered, "I was just about to ask Karl to take me back."
Karl was furious when he saw her guilty look. She was usually as fierce as a little tiger in front of him, but why didn't she have any temper at all now? He put his arms on the back of the sofa, leaned lazily on the sofa, and said casually: "What did you do wrong? Raise your head. Even if we stay a few more days, it will be faster than taking someone's broken flying ship to travel."
"What does this have to do with you?" Liberi asked coldly, "I'm here to take her back to the Imperial Court. You're not welcome there."
Karl smiled, raised his chin and stared at Liberi, and said to Qiao Suisui: "It has nothing to do with me? Be good, tell him, what is our relationship?"
Qiao Susu looked at Zong Fang first, only to find that this man had been very quiet from the beginning. At this moment, he was sitting quietly on the chair next to her, with his eyes lowered, wondering what he was thinking.
Her hesitation and silence made Libery laugh at Karl: "What could it be? Sui Sui is the worst at rejecting others. You don't think you have a chance, do you?"
Karl's eyebrows turned cold in a microsecond. He turned his head and looked at Qiao Susu calmly. No one could see the surging waves in his eyes, but his persistent gaze seemed to be waiting for her answer.
Qiao Suisui felt that it was difficult to breathe. It had only been a few days since she tacitly acknowledged her relationship with Karl. She was not prepared at all, especially with Zong Fang present. She wanted to talk to Zong Fang privately first and then tell others, but now she was put on the spot. Admitting her relationship with Karl seemed to have changed the situation, as if she had done something shameful and was being judged.
She opened her mouth, but felt a little choked up and couldn't say anything.
At this moment, Carl's silent questioning and Libery's relentless pressure made Qiao Susu feel like running away.
Her head lowered lower and lower, not looking at anyone, her fingers nervously tickling the tender flesh inside her nails.
Suddenly, a slender and strong hand covered hers, stopping her from clasping her hands.
Zongfang took her hand, pulled her up from the sofa, put his arm around her waist and led her out of the living room.
"Since you two like to chat, just chat here first. She just went out and needs to change her clothes now."
Having said that, he pulled the person away without looking back.
Liberi stood up suddenly, his face twisted with anger. He was about to chase after him, but Carl, who was crossing his legs, blocked his way.
"Don't go. You like to chat, come and chat."
I have good news. I was on the list for the voting activity (the one you told me you wanted to vote for but it has ended haha). Fortunately, I was on the list. I was too careless. When I told you, I had missed the voting time, so everyone couldn't help me. Anyway, I still want to send you a welfare stamp. It's just that the platform has not been selected yet. I want to vote, but I am considering whether some friends have no ladder? Because Aifedian and VB are not safe now. I will let you know when I am sure. Please pay attention to Zuohua~ Vote for the monthly ticket and recommendation ticket. This kind of welfare will be scattered from time to time in the future.
