Quick Wear: The Heirless Boss Wants to Get Close to Her Every Day

Chapter 354 Starting Match with an Imperial General (33)

Shen Shuyi walked up to Xavier, took his hand, and lilies of the valley, shimmering with pale green light, bloomed on Xavier's arm.

She was offering Xavier emotional support.

His gaze swept over Edmund. "Where I am is none of your business."

“I asked him who he is to you!” Edmund raised his chin and said to Shen Shuyi, word by word, “I remember you were doing combat training alone, right?”

"Also, the points for this strange beast shouldn't be counted on your head."

Shen Shuyi snorted softly; she found Edmund to be quite foolish.

In the abandoned planet training, all the alien beasts that can earn points are ownerless. Whoever hunts them gets the points; it's all about strength.

Edmund, however, believed that since they saw the six-winged fire demon beast first, they assumed it was theirs for the taking.

In response to Edmund's aggressive questioning, Shen Shuyi calmly replied, "If you were truly capable of killing this high-level beast, you wouldn't have needed to pursue it for several days."

Edmund was enraged by the mockery, and his face turned ashen.

Hathaway quickly said, "Elder sister, how can you speak to His Highness like that!"

"Shut up." Shen Shuyi slightly raised her chin. "I don't have a sister like you."

After recovering from the mental reassurance, Xavier grabbed Shen Shuyi and stood in front of her, his tall figure giving off a strong sense of oppression.

He looked at Edmund, "Your Highness only cares about points, didn't you think that this high-level beast might hurt people?"

Shen Shuyi is a C-level guide. What if she gets injured by a strange beast?

Clearly, the junior students who watched the whole thing know that the right thing to do is to kill the six-winged fire demon beast as soon as possible. Points are nothing compared to life!
This prince didn't care about his classmates' lives, especially since Senior Sister Shen was his fiancée, and they grew up together as childhood sweethearts. If he were to become the crown prince, how kind would he be to his subordinates?

After this incident, they will not cast their votes for him; the empire does not need a future monarch who disregards human life.

Edmund heard the man's voice and it sounded very familiar. Seeing how intimate he was with Shen Shuyi, a thought popped into his head.

He is Lancaster!

Hathaway just wanted to appease Edmund and give him a way out when he was embarrassed, so she shamelessly tried to smooth things over.

"It's all a misunderstanding. We rushed here to kill this beast, how could we possibly let something happen to Chang Shen?"

"A high-level beast has appeared here. Why don't you team up with us, Shen? It would be much safer that way."

Edmund realized that the man was Shen Shuyi's husband, and he felt very uneasy.

"No need. If we team up, when we encounter a monster, should we just sit and wait to be killed, or should we kill it and leave it for you to kill us? It's really hard to say."

Edmund was furious upon hearing this. "Shen Shuyi! How could you have become so wicked?"

Has she forgotten her past feelings in such a short time? She's only known Lancaster for a short time, and she's already defied her for his sake!
Shen Shuyi felt that Edmund was going on and on, so she grabbed Xavier and left, too lazy to waste words with him. "Let's go."

Xavier glanced sharply at Edmund, then gripped Shen Shuyi's hand and walked forward. Edmund watched their departing figures, hand in hand, so angry that his mental energy became disordered. If his companion hadn't dodged in time, he would have almost been injured by them.

The military academy students couldn't contain themselves when they saw this.

[His Highness Edmund looks a bit scary. Could he be jealous of Senior Shen and the General? Is it really necessary? They broke off their engagement ages ago, and it was the man who broke it off.]
[Hathaway is shameless. After such a huge scandal, she's still following Edmund around. She's really disgraced our noble ladies. There are even videos of her with the prince and Prince Denison on the internet.]
[I heard that while Prince Edmund was engaged to Senior Shen, he was having an affair with Hathaway.]
[Luckily, our senior Shen didn't pick up men from the hazardous waste bin. Admiral Lancaster is quite good, much better than some fickle men.]
Shen Shuyi felt that Xavier was holding her hand too tightly, and she could feel the warmth from his palm even through the protective gloves.

She tickled him and whispered, "Sir, you're hurting my grip."

"Sorry." Xavier quickly let go, and the two looked at each other through their protective masks, the burning passion in his eyes becoming increasingly undisguised.

Shen Shuyi grasped his hand again, "The combat training will be over soon."

"Hmm." Xavier's voice was a little hoarse. He had been trying to restrain himself, but he really wanted to hug his wife and take her away immediately.

In this practical trial on the abandoned planet, Shen Shuyi achieved the highest score in the entire grade, which greatly exceeded everyone's expectations.

Even her mentors were surprised by her strong combat skills, considering she was only a C-level guide. What's even more remarkable is that she earned all these points on her own; the monsters Xavier killed didn't count towards her points record.

After the practical training ended, the military academy gave the students who participated in the trial a three-day break, after which they returned to the academy for an awards ceremony.

Shen Shuyi did not take the military academy's spaceship back to Tuyadi. As soon as the combat exercise ended, Xavier picked her up and carried her to the general's personal spacecraft back to Lancaster Manor.

Shen Shuyi took a shower in the spaceship's bathroom and felt refreshed, only to see the man in combat gear silently setting the spaceship's course.

When he turned around and met her gaze, his deep, intense blue eyes made her instinctively take a step back.

"Oh!" Shen Shuyi was picked up by him in one go, and she subconsciously reached out to hug his neck.

She whispered, "Where are we going? Aren't you supposed to stay in the cockpit and watch out for things if something happens?"

Before she could finish speaking, Xavier lowered his head and kissed her lips.

She was then carried to a large seat, with a beautiful rose nebula visible through the porthole.

Xavier stood up, unbuttoning his combat shirt one button at a time and tossing it aside casually. His bronze skin looked exceptionally superior in the light.

His waist was slender and strong, and at this moment he looked like a wild wolf ready to pounce.

Shen Shuyi quickly used both hands to support the man who was leaning down, "We just can't go back to the manor."

“That’s not what you said in the video call.” Xavier rested one hand on the back of the seat and held his hand with the other. “You said… you’d give me anything when we met.”

Shen Shuyi blushed as she looked at the man's slender fingers covering the back of her hand and at the bulging veins on his back. Her heart started beating faster and her breathing became rapid.

With only the two of them in the cabin, only romantic nebulae could be seen outside the porthole, and only the ambiguous sounds of their breathing could be heard inside.

A deep male voice sounded in her ear, "Shuyi, I want to stay here."
