Knights Don't Need a Youthful Romance Story

By now, he had seen far too many outrageous things.

"Look, look, that boy over there, doesn't he seem special?"

"Which one?"

"It's under that streetlight over there."

"Indeed."

Several girls walked by, laughing and joking.

In fact, most people are good-looking, and some are even no less attractive than some so-called celebrities.

One reason why she looks like an ordinary passerby is that she didn't take good care of herself.

On the other hand, there's temperament.

Some people are very different at first glance, and they have a very confident aura.

Some people give off a very颓废 (颓废 is a difficult word to translate directly, but it implies a sense of listlessness, apathy, or apathy) feeling at first glance, like a shut-in who stays at home all year round and only goes out occasionally.

What's the difference between these two?

Clothing and demeanor.

Many people think that temperament is a mysterious thing.

In fact, temperament is the feeling you give someone at first glance.

A person's temperament is often determined by their perspective and experience.

Different experiences bring different temperaments to people.

Luo Zhen naturally noticed those girls as well.

Do I look strange?

Luo Zhen tugged at his collar, feeling a bit strange, his heart filled with doubt.

Because he hadn't thought about it that way from the beginning, Luo Zhen had no idea what those girls were really thinking.

Of course, these girls whispered and giggled as they asked to exchange contact information.

But in reality, he didn't actually have any feelings for Luo Zhenduo.

It's more about the novelty and the urge for friends to encourage each other and laugh at each other's misfortunes.

If you encounter someone with no class, they might even deliberately try to mess with you.

Just as the girls were laughing and shoving each other, Asukai Kiki, carrying a small bag, jogged up to Luo Zhen's side.

"good afternoon."

"Sorry, I'm not late, am I?"

"No, I just arrived."

Seeing Luo Zhen talking to Asukai Kiki, the girls made an "Eh~" sound and then quickly left.

Disappointed?

Not really.

Being sad is even less likely.

Girls these days aren't that fragile.

It was just a minor incident that happened while shopping.

They might not even remember it when they get home that night.

My impression of Luo Zhen is probably limited to a boy whose face I can't see clearly, and whose temperament I only remember is somewhat peculiar.

On the other side, Luo Zhen also seemed somewhat amazed by Asukai Kiki's appearance today.

On ordinary days, Asukai Kiki always wears clothes that are somewhat androgynous.

She doesn't like or is uninterested in anything that ordinary girls like, such as short skirts and stockings.

His style of dress is more like that of a guy like myself.

However, Asukai Kiki clearly dressed herself up nicely today.

Her long, slender legs were outlined in a graceful curve by black pantyhose.

Gray shorts hugged her beautiful curves.

The scarf casually draped around her neck didn't look messy; the little frog charm dangling from her small bag added a touch of cuteness and softened her usual aloofness.

Fair, delicate fingers restlessly twirled the ends of her hair.

For some reason, his emerald green pupils seemed somewhat unfocused, as if he was reluctant to meet Luo Zhen's gaze.

Although Asukai Kiki's height is considered quite good for a girl, she is still considerably shorter than Luo Zhen.

"Where to go next?"

"Let's go eat first. You haven't eaten since you got back, have you?"

Coming to his senses, Asukai Kiki turned his head and said.

He tried his best to maintain his usual demeanor while speaking.

He glanced casually at Luo Zhen's hands in his pockets, and a few thoughts began to stir within him.

But in the end, I gave up on the idea.

Although I had done a lot of mental rehearsals before coming here and even thought about taking down Luo Zhen in one fell swoop.

But when we actually meet, we try our best to maintain our usual way of interacting, worried that some of our behavior might cause the other person to change.

Friendship is always openly displayed and shared, while love is always cautiously explored and touched upon.

"Okay, what do you want to eat?"

Nodding, Luo Zhen didn't think too much about it.

All I can say is that Asukai Kiki's stern face is incredibly deceptive; she seems no different from usual.

Even if Luo Zhen occasionally had a different idea, he would quickly dismiss it because of the other party's expressionless face.

The two chatted idly for a while, but soon fell into an eerie silence.

'Say something,' *2

The two, who seemed to be walking on their own, simultaneously had this thought in their minds.

Both wanted to start a conversation but didn't know what to say. They wanted to talk about their recent experiences but were worried the other wouldn't want to listen.

And as we walked along, I didn't know what reason to start a conversation.

It looked the same even inside the restaurant.

Two pairs of lifeless eyes stared at each other, silently watching the person opposite them, before looking away.

After that, stop pretending to look at the other person casually, and look away again when the other person looks at you.

It's like playing hide-and-seek with your eyes.

'That's strange, did those two have a fight?'

The smiling waitress was actually sweating bullets inside.

They usually find it very troublesome to deal with couples who argue and give each other the silent treatment.

If it's just a cold war, that's fine, but I'm afraid of encountering someone who starts arguing and then gets physical.

Although watching a play is very enjoyable.

But cleaning up afterwards will be a hassle.

Fortunately, both of them seemed quite calm.

The waitress who left with the menu breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems there won't be any problems.

After the waitress left, Luo Zhen and Asukai Kiki continued to stare at each other.

Hey, don't say that.

From this angle, Asukai Kiki is indeed quite beautiful.

She's not the soft and cute type, but rather has a similar feel to Yukino Yukinoshita.

However, Yukino Yukinoshita wraps herself up like a hedgehog, separating herself from the group.

Asukai Kiki gives the impression that there is a thin film separating her from this world, as if she could leave at any moment, and she has a misanthropic feeling that is not interested in this world.

Looking at Asukai Kiki's fair face, Luo Zhen's thoughts drifted away.

“I said…”

Suddenly, Luo Zhen broke the silence by speaking up.

Chapter 441 What happened to the promised rest?

Have you encountered any problems in your life recently?

Looking at the coffee in the cup, Luo Zhen hesitated for a few seconds before subtly putting it aside.

In that awkward atmosphere, Luo Zhen handed over the task of ordering drinks to Asukai Kiki.

Without much thought, Asukai Kiki ordered two cups of coffee.

I don't know why so many people like to drink coffee when they chat these days.

If this were in the Free Country, Luo Zhen could understand it.

After all, people in the Free Country have a strange kind of faith in coffee.

In many people's eyes, holding a coffee cup is a symbol of efficiency, even if nothing is actually being done.

And here.......

It can only be said that the son takes after the father.

Luo Zhen didn't know what others thought, but he didn't like coffee.

Even with added sugar, it's still hard to drink.

"Everything is fine, right?"

Brushing a strand of long hair that had fallen behind her ear, Asukai Kiki took a small sip of coffee and spoke.

She vaguely remembered that Luo Zhen had asked her this question three times.

The first time was when she first arrived at the base here.

The second time was when she invited Luo Zhen out to dinner.

This is the third time.

When the same question is asked repeatedly, even a normal person will become impatient.

But Asukai Kiki patiently answered Luo Zhen's questions.

"Work is the same as usual, and I haven't encountered any problems."

"In life, I'm the same as you."

"Nothing much happened, nothing special."

Asukai Kiki gently stirred the coffee with a small spoon, watching the liquid being stirred in the cup, and spoke in a calm voice.

For her, this kind of life, though uneventful, was quite good.

Even though there are occasionally some dangerous and special tasks, for Asukai Kiki, these are just interludes in his work.

These things will be forgotten soon after the mission is over.

It's not something worth mentioning or recounting repeatedly.

On the contrary, she is more willing to share some small things in life.

For example, the breakfast I bought when I left home in the morning tasted very good, and the stars I saw when I returned home at night were very beautiful.
