Star boss she is beautiful and sassy

Chapter 881 881.Ares is a little unhappy? Qin Shaoheng's attention! The one and only Charlotte!

Ares looked stunned for a moment, as if this was an unexpected answer.

But soon, he returned to normal.

It seemed as if those red eyes were always as calm as water, without any ripples.

After a pause, Ares spoke again.

This is a more appropriate conversation rhythm, which will neither make the conversation awkward nor make people feel anxious.

In particular, he is not likely to reveal his personal emotions.

But...Ares's question really makes it difficult to hide certain thoughts.

"Have you been in touch with him?" he asked suddenly.

Charlotte was a little surprised and only replied hesitantly: "Well, we usually contact each other, but not very often."

Although she answered truthfully, she couldn't help feeling puzzled.

Strange, why did he ask that?

But before Charlotte could figure out anything, Ares continued, "It seems that he thinks highly of you."

Charlotte was even more confused: "Why do you say that?"

Ares said succinctly: "Major General Qin is usually very busy."

He didn't say much, but his unfinished words made his meaning clear - Major General Qin was very busy, so anyone who could keep in touch with him on a daily basis must not be an insignificant person. What's more, he must be someone he values.

On the surface, it seems to be the case.

Charlotte thought to herself: Is that really the case? Why doesn't she feel that way?

After thinking about it, she couldn't help but say, "I don't think it's a big deal. We just happened to know each other and got in touch because of some things. Slowly, we became familiar with each other."

Ares listened to her saying this, his expression remained normal, without any sign of abnormality.

However, compared to before, his eyes were less worldly and became clear and distant again.

Ares spoke very gently: "He won't invite anyone casually, nor will he give instructions to anyone casually."

His tone was light, but his attitude was affirmative.

Charlotte: It seems... that's the case?

But Charlotte never thought about these issues subconsciously.

Although she is uninhibited and confident, she is never blindly arrogant.

Especially when it comes to interacting with others, she will never think too highly of herself or think of herself as too unique.

But now, after being pointed out by Ares, Charlotte had to face it.

Could it be that she really missed something?

Is it true, as he said, that Qin Shaoheng values ​​her very much?

But... why?

Because she and Qin Shaoyang are classmates?

Or is it because she has a talent for mecha driving?

It can't be because she is more perseverant, right?

However, apart from this, Charlotte really couldn't think of any other reason.

After thinking about it again and again, she couldn't help but say, "Maybe it's because his brother and I are classmates and we have a good relationship, so he loves me and takes care of me."

This seemed to be a more appropriate argument, and Charlotte continued, "In short, it's hard to find a good teacher. Since I have this opportunity, I must seize it and take the initiative to ask for advice. As a result, it is inevitable that we have more interactions, but it's not that he values ​​me too much."

Everyone is discussing the subject professionally, so how could there be any other involvement? That's what Charlotte thought.

Ares had been listening quietly, his expression reserved and introverted.

It seemed that from just now on, the gentleness on his face had faded a lot.

At this moment, he didn't respond until Charlotte finished speaking.

For some reason, Charlotte always felt that there was a subtle chill in his calm tone.

But...what happened to him?

Charlotte was confused and didn't understand what was going on.

It was clearly him who brought up the topic, so why did he suddenly seem... a little unhappy?

He looks a little unhappy, right?

Or was it all just her illusion? Charlotte couldn't be completely sure about this.

It's just because the person in front of her always has no expression, which makes it really hard to guess.

If Charlotte didn't know him well enough and was good at seeing the big picture from the small details, she would never have thought that "he is a little unhappy".

Everything is fine, why is he unhappy?

This man's heart is like the sky in June and a needle in the sea.

Wait, that's not right, why did the topic involve Major General Qin again? Charlotte realized it belatedly.

So, is there really any relationship between him and Qin Shaoheng?

Otherwise, why would the topic always revolve around the other person?

Almost subconsciously, Charlotte asked: "Are you familiar with Major General Qin?"

Now, it was her turn to ask him back.

Ares, who was originally in a dull mood and even seemed "a little unhappy" to Charlotte, was stunned for a moment by this question.

He was still silent, but his eyes were slightly wandering.

He looked as if he had been asked an unexpected and difficult question and was trying hard to think of an appropriate response.

Although Charlotte asked suddenly, Ares could instantly understand her true intention.

The conversations between the two of them were always so easy to understand.

His face remained calm throughout, but his eyes could not completely hide his emotions.

After all, Charlotte is extremely perceptive.

As she got to know him better, she could always see some clues and taste some meaning.

After a long while, he slowly said, "I'm just asking casually, don't worry about it."

His voice was low, but his answer was evasive.

Charlotte: Is that true?

When he posted the update just now, he mentioned Qin Shaoheng.

Now again, is this really just a casual question?

She always felt that this was not the case.

Could it be that the two of them were really familiar with each other? Otherwise, why would they keep mentioning each other in front of her?

In this regard, Charlotte could only make a rough guess based on his feelings.

After all, she and Qin Shaoheng and Ares were not yet familiar enough to know each other's network of contacts.

The two continued walking forward, and for a moment, no one spoke.

The atmosphere seemed to have become a little cold because of the topic just now.

But fortunately, Charlotte is used to silence and doesn't feel uncomfortable at all.

As they were about to return to the main building of the manor, she naturally wanted to say goodbye to him.

Unexpectedly, he spoke before her: "What do you think of what I proposed yesterday?"

Charlotte was slightly startled, but soon realized what he was talking about.

When they were walking together yesterday, he mentioned rewarding people according to their merits.

Because Charlotte has not graduated yet and has not joined the army, she cannot accumulate military merits.

But considering Charlotte's special contribution in this mission, Ares, as his superior, hopes to reward her.

At that time, Charlotte wanted to bring up the matter of Professor He Xiaotong. She wanted to know about the project that Professor He was collaborating on with Zhanzhi 8.

However, because it involved relevant secrets, Charlotte had only taken the initiative, but Ares saw through her intention and spoke to her before she could.

His refusal could not be more obvious.

Afterwards, he also asked Charlotte if she had any other expectations.
