"What a lazy yet beautiful wish... I'll try to find time to visit you on Takujin Day. Also, please accept this."
Number 11 took out some materials as she spoke. These were small New Year gifts. The third New Year custom she knew was—
Giving gifts during the New Year is like passing on good luck. No. 11 gives his good luck to Zhe in the hope that his wish will come true.
It's great, finally there are some normal customs...
Zhe sighed in his heart and accepted the gift.
"I accept the gift and the good luck, but doesn't Number 11 need some luck himself?"
"Strong soldiers can protect themselves with their strength. You don't need to worry about me."
"That won't do. As a return gift for such precious good fortune, could you tell me what number 11 wishes for?"
Zhe's words made No. 11 stunned for a moment, as if she thought of something, and then she turned her head away with an unnatural expression.
"My wish is simple. I want to become stronger and get promoted... You can't help me with these things, so just give me your blessing."
"Of course I can give you a blessing, but is this really all that Number 11 wants?"
Zhe didn't give up, but walked forward and put his face in front of No. 11.
"That's really all."
No. 11 was still trying to hide his true inner desires. Seeing this, Zhe retreated and looked lost.
"I see. I thought, with my relationship with No. 11, I should be able to know her wish. I just wanted to do something for her..."
"No, Zhe, I..."
No. 11 wanted to explain, but Zhe just shook his head.
"It's okay. After all, even married couples have secrets from each other. Besides, I will prepare a gift for Takujin Day. I believe No. 11 will like it."
Zhe's behavior made No. 11 feel even more guilty. If he betrayed the other person's feelings just because he was embarrassed to express his true wish...
Thinking of this, No. 11's eyes became firm. He hesitated for a moment and then spoke.
"Zhe, actually, my real wish is..."
No. 11 spoke softly, but Zhe heard it clearly...
After retiring, will you marry me and run a gooseberry farm? That's a great wish...
Chapter 376 Ya: If you don’t want to have a baby now, can you get some practice first?
But doesn’t it have a bit of a flag-setting meaning?
Zhe was thinking this in his heart, and because of a mission that was about to start, No. 11 could not stay at the video store overnight, so he had to leave first.
This was a coincidence that avoided a crisis, because when they returned to the video store, Ya had been waiting there for a long time.
Although she didn't do anything at the moment, her cheeks were puffed up, expressing her dissatisfaction to Zhe.
"Ya, are you still unhappy?"
"..."
"Don't be upset, okay? I bought you a honeydew melon."
"Hmm! Um..."
When talking about honeydew melon, Ya's eyes lit up instantly, but thinking that she was still angry, she swallowed and continued to remain silent.
But her eyes were clearly drawn to the honeydew melon. With that size and variety, it must be very sweet and juicy...
In the end, I couldn't resist the temptation and ate the honeydew melon together.
"Why does Ya want a child so much?"
After eating the honeydew melon, Ya's emotions calmed down, and she took this opportunity to ask Zhe about the doubts in her heart.
"Because I want to become a real couple with Zhe."
"Well, but being a couple doesn't necessarily require children, right? Besides, we're still young..."
Zhe looked at the serious Ya in front of him, a little confused, while the latter continued to speak.
"My father said that. He said we must have children. I think that makes sense, but why doesn't Zhe want children? Is he dissatisfied with me?"
"Of course not! Ya is so outstanding, our future children will definitely be the same."
"Then why..."
"Because I haven't finished my work yet and my life hasn't really settled down, I don't want my child to be born in such an unstable time."
Zhe stated his reasons in a deep voice, and Ya fell silent after hearing this. After a long time, she lowered her head and thought, pursing her lips.
"I'm sorry, Zhe, I'm so irresponsible. I wanted to be a mother, but I didn't consider these things for my child. I'm not a qualified mother..."
"Of course not. It's already very precious that Ya can consider these things."
"Well, I will continue to practice. When I am qualified enough and everything is settled, Zhe, are you willing to have a child with me?"
"Well, if that time comes, I will do it without you telling me."
Zhe held Ya in his arms, and the latter's knot in his heart was untied. Although the idea of having children was temporarily gone, the idea of becoming stronger still existed.
"Zhe, I want to do some physical training now."
"Now? Okay."
……
The next day, both of them got up early, and Ya took a look at her schedule for the day.
"There's a New Year's meeting speech in class today. I wanted Liu to go in my place so I could watch your game, but she refused."
It is normal to refuse. After all, for this kind of thing, it is Ya who has to be the one to do it. Even though Liu is the actual section chief, he is still only the deputy section chief in name.
"Be patient, I'll make you something delicious when you come back."
Zhe reached out and touched Ya's head, and combed the hair on the latter's ears. While the other party was enjoying it, she noticed Zhe's mobile phone.
"what is this?"
"Uh, it's the news that my second comic submission failed..."
Come to think of it, Zhe could somewhat understand Jiayin's feelings for winning the second place in the competition to portray herself, since that comic book was clearly created by herself.
But the illustration I secretly submitted failed to make the cut. It was really too dramatic...
Ya nodded, not quite understanding, somewhat surprised at her man's versatility.
……
When we arrived at Xinghuan, it was already the semi-finals of [Liduyoubu], and Jiayin had been waiting here for a long time.
"Hey, here I come, let me see the new clothes I made yesterday..."
"Why are you so anxious to see the clothes? Are you worried about my designs?"
"No! Anyway, let me take a look first..."
Zhe did not refuse Jiayin's request. When the clothes were taken out, the former immediately showed satisfaction on his face.
"Yeah, that's cute! Should be... okay?"
"What happened? Jiayin seems very nervous."
Zhe asked with some doubt, and Jiayin told him the truth without hiding anything.
"The schedule just updated, and I saw today's opponent... Although this might be a bit detrimental to morale, I think today's opponent seems quite strong..."
Seeing this, Zhe was a little surprised.
"Jia Yin is usually very confident, why is it that this time..."
"You know my intuition is pretty accurate, right? Today's opponent is definitely not an ordinary Bomb...!
I can tell from the look in its eyes on the player's profile page that it definitely understands the art of winning people's hearts!"
"Surgeon Bomb?"
"...It's not about controlling people's hearts! Wait, are you kidding me?"
Jiayin suddenly realized what was happening, and Zhe smiled when he saw that the effect had been achieved.
"Don't worry, Ies is training very hard, so he won't lose!"
"Believe me, this opponent today must not be underestimated!"
Jiayin's repeated emphasis aroused Zhe's curiosity. The two of them immediately hit it off and decided to go and find out the truth before the game.
"Let me see, our opponent Bumbu's name is... [Robin]. Is it [Assistant Robin] or [Robin the Rogue]...?"
While Jiayin was thinking, the two also found their target, Bomb, who was in the player's rest area. Surprisingly, the other party could speak human language.
And the temperament he exuded was full of calmness. Seeing this, Jiayin was about to say something to Zhe, but was interrupted by a burst of footsteps that seemed to be deliberately getting heavier...
A blond young man stood next to Robin, looking at this side with a smile, and without introducing himself, the other party guessed that the two people and Yi Bu were the opponents in the next game.
After a while of guessing, Jiayin couldn't help but speak. Taking this opportunity, the blond young man opposite also turned the topic to Jiayin's identity.
Hearing the blond young man's question with a hint of smile, Jiayin also smiled leisurely and raised his hand to take off his sunglasses.
"I'm Yao Jiayin, what's wrong?"
"...Miss Yao is such a free and easy person."
The blond young man didn't expect that the other party would act so calmly after just one sentence.
"I just know that sometimes there's no need to pretend. There's no way someone like you can't tell who I am."
"No, I feel like you don't need to be a big shot to see it just by looking at a pair of sunglasses..."
Zhe complained silently, and Jiayin felt a little embarrassed when she heard it, so she reached out and tugged at the former's clothes.
Chapter 377 I’m Not Your Fan Anyway
"...Please stop ruining my life! I know it's all thanks to Eve's protection... I, I've already thanked Eve!"
Jiayin's shy little movements were seen by the blond young man. After looking at the two people in front of him for a while, he spoke with sudden realization.
"You two seem to have a good relationship. Could it be that you are Miss Yao's...?"
"It's up to your imagination."
"oh……?"
Zhe's answer surprised the blond young man, but it seemed that it was what he thought, because Jiayin on the side spoke up to change the subject out of shyness.
"Okay, okay! Let's talk about something else!"
Although they had kissed, which was a major step in their relationship, that was all.
If Jiayin talks about this kind of thing in front of outsiders, she will still feel shy. She is so aggressive when they are alone, why is the contrast so big outside?
"Speaking of which, I heard that an accident happened at Miss Yao's concert a while ago? The outside reports are mostly vague. Perhaps I'd be lucky enough to hear the person involved's side of the story?"
The blond young man also changed the subject, but this topic was a bit sensitive, so Zhe asked back calmly.
"Why are you interested in this?"
"Well...actually, I'm a collector. The value of many collectibles and artworks depends not so much on their quality as on the stories behind them...
That day, the Star Ring Tower was nearly destroyed, right? I'm very interested in this kind of [expensive story].
He glanced at Jiayin, who didn't seem to mind. So he simply told the blond young man what happened in the Star Ring...
"So, in the end, Miss Yao used her singing to control the harmony engine and saved everyone present?"
"It's not my singing, it's everyone's singing! If it were just me, even if Hemiola's resonance efficiency was high, it wouldn't be possible."
Jiayin waved her hand and explained the actual situation to the blond young man, who also grasped the key point in her words.
"[Hemiola] is...?"
"It's my microphone, specially customized. The album [Youlan's last work] is on it now~ Hmm... maybe many years later, this microphone will become a collector's item like you."
"Oh? Miss Yao, do you mind if I borrow it for a look? It's the [Lido Diva's] custom-made microphone. I've never seen anything like it before."
Jiayin readily took out the [Hemiola], and the blond youth put on gloves on both hands before taking it. After carefully examining it, he politely returned it to Jiayin.
