Meanwhile, at Victoria Housekeeping...
"Why didn't Kelin want to talk to Zhe more just now? Haven't you been missing him a lot lately?"
Ailen looked at the timid Matcha Cake beside her and asked in a puzzled tone.
"Because, because there are other girls around Brother Zhe, Kelin is afraid that she might say something wrong and make Brother Zhe unhappy..."
"what?"
It seems rare to see Zhe unhappy, right? Anyway, as far as Ailian knows, even the last time she slightly ignored him because of her friends.
I just care more about myself. Of course, there have been some rare cases.
For example, when something is halfway through, a special situation suddenly arises, forcing it to be terminated, but that only ruins the fun...
"Why would Kelin think so?"
Ailian was a little confused. It was obvious that before, Kelin only showed basic respect to the other girls around Zhe, and it was not to this extent.
After asking, she found out that in Kelin's eyes, she had more or less had contact with the other girls before and knew that they were good people.
"Kelin knew that Miss Yao was known to the public for her aloof personality, so..."
I see, so it was a misunderstanding...
Ailian thought so, and then told Kelin about her time with Jiayin. She was a very gentle and considerate girl, and perhaps a little playful.
"Besides, anyone who has a good relationship with Zhe is not a bad person, so don't worry, Kelin. We are all his wings."
The last sentence was said by Zhe to her, but she forgot exactly when.
However, after hearing what Ailian said, Kelin breathed a sigh of relief and no longer worried about having sisters who were difficult to get along with.
Naturally, the conversation between the two was also heard by the other two people from Victoria Housekeeping. Lekaan remained silent and didn't want to say much, while Lina smiled with some surprise.
Now, getting back to the topic, the game is about to begin.
Ies confidently put on accessories with joyful designs and went on stage to have the final showdown with Butler.
"The opponent is really strong, but I think the winner will be Ies!"
When his attention was focused on the game, Jiayin temporarily forgot what he had just been thinking about and focused on observing the situation on the field.
The competition was fierce, but the final winner was still Ies. Lekaan was a little surprised by this. He actually... no, he should have thought of it as early as when the other party launched the challenge.
"Congratulations... Mr. Zhe, it looks like the winner of this match is Ies. It was a very exciting match, but personally, if I had a vote, I think I would still vote for Butler.
But it is obvious... the result of this game shows that the charm displayed by you and Ies has won the recognition and love of more citizens.
Please forgive my intrusion, but to be honest, I am a little curious... The title of the final is [New Eridu Treasure], and the costume you chose for Ies... Why, is it such a clown costume? "
"Hmm... What does Lekaan think the [New Eridu Treasure] is?"
Zhe did not answer directly, but asked a question in return. To which Lecan answered very solemnly, it was responsibility and dignity.
The responsibility to fight against emptiness and the dignity of civilization. Eridu was born, stood tall in a wilderness filled with emptiness, and thrived to this day precisely because it adhered to these two points.
These words made a lot of sense, so much so that Zhe even felt that it was a good thing that there was no speech session in the competition, otherwise he would not have felt so confident.
But in fact, this is just a sense of deviation. It is like when you write an essay, you write the content according to the topic. You feel that your content is well written, novel, and in line with the topic.
But when the teacher reads out other people's essays, you will think that others' are better, and even wonder why you didn't think of it.
"But I think the winner will still be Ies."
Jiayin suddenly interrupted the conversation between the two.
“Responsibility and dignity are certainly important, but New Eridu has something more precious than these…it is New Eridu’s unique treasure.
Zhe, didn’t you tell me this yesterday?
Jiayin said as she looked towards Zhe, and upon hearing this, Lekaan also spoke.
"Sir Zhe, please feel free to enlighten me."
Chapter 385 Kelin: I will continue to work hard to make good wings... (Additional)
"My answer is... joy. New Ailidu is a city that can laugh heartily in the face of disaster. Even after experiencing...
No, even today, the city is being devoured by the void at any moment, and everyone faces the risk of losing their homes overnight...
But even so, the people of New Eridu still organize New Year's lantern shows and the Bombu beauty pageant all day long...
Some people might think this is silly, but I think that's what makes New Ailidu so endearing, and what makes people want to live here... and what makes people willing to give everything for such a life.
New Ailidu is a city of joy... Joy is the most precious thing that allows New Ailidu to overcome everything."
Zhe expressed his opinion. After hearing this, Lekaan was silent for a while and then slowly spoke.
"I see. Is that why he's the Joker? Always bringing laughter to people..."
"Besides, this is a beauty pageant after all! Today is Chinese New Year, right? Of course, something that makes people happy is best. That's easy to understand, right?"
Jiayin said as she extended her hand to Ies beside her.
"Mr. Lecan, please take a look at this adorable Ies. Ies, act cute... Look, you're smiling too! With such charm, it would be absurd not to win!"
"...You're right, Miss Yao. Ies deserves to win this championship. I will keep your answer in mind, Mr. Zhe. I believe I'm not the only one who applauds your answer."
After saying this, Lekaan took everyone from Victoria Housekeeping to wait aside. Before leaving, Kelin plucked up the courage to say hello to Jiayin.
Although the latter didn't quite understand, he still responded with a polite smile and a wave, and Kelin was delighted to see this.
After it was over, Xiao Pei came over with an excited look on his face.
"We won! We won!! Player Ies!! Ies!! We won!!! Wuuuuuuuuuuu… We really won… Wuuuuuuuuu…"
Xiao Pei cried with joy. As a die-hard fan of Bangbu, nothing could make her happier than seeing the player she had brought along win the championship.
With Zhe's comfort, Xiao Pei's excitement eased a little.
"I knew Ies could do it...! Ies has been working so hard these past few days...! He really did it... That's great... Did I help?"
"Of course, Xiao Pei also worked hard and helped a lot."
Zhe smiled and expressed his affirmation, and Xiao Pei's face turned slightly red with excitement when he heard this.
"That's amazing... I never dreamed... that I could actually win the Lido Fabric Competition this year... and... today's champion was led by me...
Ies... wuwuwu... can I call you Ies..."
"Yes! (Of course!)"
"Thank you, Ies... I'll never forget seeing you on the finals stage... I'll treasure the video of this match for the rest of my life..."
"Yeah? (Thank you, Xiao Pei! Want a hug?)"
"Ies... Angel... Wuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."
Xiao Pei was excited but suddenly remembered his last job, which was to take Ies to do the training on lighting the Qisui Lamp.
After explaining everything, Xiao Pei hugged Ies again and then ran to the lounge.
In contrast to Xiao Pei, Ies, who had actually achieved his goal, seemed very calm.
Then Zhe went to find Jiayin and Evelin again.
"Hmm~ Everything went well... right?"
Jiayin was originally happy for Ies's successful championship, but as if she thought of something, her last words became a little hesitant.
Evelin couldn't help but feel a little strange when she saw this.
"You've already won the championship, aren't you satisfied?"
"Well, originally, all we needed to do was complete a perfect lantern lighting ceremony, and this year would be perfect~ But...sigh..."
Jiayin sighed and glanced at Zhe. At this moment, she had realized that what Ailian meant by bullying was actually...
But why did I become even more unhappy after learning the truth? Hmm...
"We still have some time before we leave for Guangying. Would you like to chat with your friends now? Miss Ailian is waiting for you over there."
In the end, Jiayin, whose little head was unable to think of such a difficult decision, chose to leave the matter until next year. He had wanted to try it before, and now he found that it felt great to implement this sentence.
"Excuse me, who is Ellen...?"
Evelin asked with some concern when she heard the unfamiliar name, and Jiayin had a complicated expression on her face.
"He's a friend of Zhe and me, but I think Ailian and Zhe are closer. After all, he's the one who attracts cute girls~"
Jiayin is not a fool. Maybe she was just suspicious before the conversation with Ailian, but now she can be said to be certain.
Nine out of ten of the cute girls he met with Zhe before were interested in him, and some of them might even have had sex with him like Ailian.
It seems like I'm a failure now. I clearly made up my mind, but at most we just kissed. Should I have been more radical?
While Zhe was talking to other people, Jiayin suddenly had a good idea and looked at Evelin beside her.
"Eve~After we finish work on Takujin Day, can we go to Zhe's house to celebrate?"
"But haven't we already booked a restaurant?"
"Well, let's celebrate twice. After all, it's not too much to celebrate such a big thing twice."
At this time, Zhe was on the other side, at Victoria Housekeeping, and learned about Kelin's previous concerns from Ailian.
He also comforted her and reached out to touch Kelin's head. The latter spoke happily.
"Thank you, Brother Zhe. Kelin will continue to work hard and be Brother Zhe's... wings..."
"Wings? Did Airen tell you that? Yeah, thank you. I'll continue to love little Corinne well from now on, and of course, the same goes for Airen."
"Hmph, there's no need to say so many cheesy words..."
……
"How's it going? Did you enjoy chatting with everyone?"
Jiayin looked at Zhe, who finally came back after a long time after saying hello, and tried to keep a calm tone.
"Zhe is really amazing. Ever since my debut, I seem to have had very few opportunities to make friends, and I've become more and more dependent on Eve...
This time with you, I got to know a lot of new people! I wish we could become friends~"
Jiayin's words seemed to have a hidden meaning, and then she looked at Evelin beside her.
"What about Eve? Would she mind?"
"...How could that be possible? As long as you are happy, I will be satisfied."
……
(P.S. Thanks to '三日月' for the great recognition and the popularity. Thank you all for your support. This is the first time that the word "plus update" appears in all my works.)
Chapter 386: Challenges on the First Day of the New Year
After hearing Evelin's words, Jiayin breathed a sigh of relief, and then made up her mind.
Evelin glanced at the time again, then spoke again.
"It's almost time to go to Guangying Square to prepare for the lighting ceremony."
"Well, let's go."
……
"Brother, I'm here!"
Ling waved to Zhe, and the two met at Guangying Square. As for the sisters Odilea and Odette, they went back home to be with their families during the holiday.
“Jia Yin and Ies have gone to prepare for the lighting ceremony, so let’s just walk around and wait until midnight.
I used to stay home to celebrate New Year’s Eve, but today I came out and realized there are so many people celebrating New Year’s Eve by the river…”
Ling looked around as she spoke, and she seemed to see quite a few familiar faces, some of whom she hadn't expected to celebrate New Year's Eve by the river...
No, if it’s because of my brother, it doesn’t seem impossible?
"Brother, do you want to go say hello to them?"
"Well, that's exactly how it should be."
Zhe nodded. He met four people from the Cunning Rabbit House in the square and three people from the Public Security Bureau by the river. It was a pity that Jane was not among them, but that was understandable.
