Who says those who retire at the speed of light are not heroes?

"Of course." Xu Linglan snorted.

"Isn't the skirt a little too short?"

"feudal."

"It's so numb."

The two of them had already walked into the warehouse. Xu Linglan grabbed the hem of her skirt with her fingertips and lifted it up a little. Lin Cheng saw her bloomers with white lace under the hem of her skirt.

"Okay, okay, okay." Lin Cheng picked up a box of beer, while Xu Linglan picked up the chilled red wine and a few cans of fruit wine. She suddenly asked, "Aren't you worried that they will quarrel?"

"Worried."

"You don't seem to be worried at all."

"I can't do anything if they start arguing. Let's just let it be." This was the only answer Lin Cheng could give. The two of them carried the wine to the lawn outside. The table had already been set up. Lu Xiaoxiao used her ability to conjure up two buckets of ice cubes, and Xu Linglan took a can of fruit wine. The Monopoly game over there was over, so a group of people came over and started playing small games on the table with dice.

There are also people at the table who can't drink much, so an additional rule is added: those who can't drink can designate the only man at the table to drink.

Lin Cheng sat next to Jiang Li. Jiang Li had been a little reserved. She was the first to lose. Holding her beer cup, Lin Cheng leaned close to her ear and asked, "Can I help you drink it?"

"It's okay. We'll talk about it when you can't drink anymore." She held the beer glass and took a big sip. Soon, her snow-white cheeks turned slightly red.

After a few rounds of games, no one asked Lin Cheng to drink. The game was just suspended. Lizhi raised her red wine glass and looked at Ji Zhezhi who was sitting there. She said softly, "Long time no see, Miss Ji."

"Long time no see." Ji Zhezhi raised his glass and clinked it lightly with hers.

She finished the red wine in the glass, raised her glass and filled it halfway again, looked at Lizhi, and said softly, "Cheers to you."

There was a hint of obedience in her brows.

Instead, Lizhi was stunned for a moment. She also heard Ji Zhezhi say, "Just take a sip."

"How can this be so embarrassing?" So the two of them had another drink.

Ji Zhezhi looked at Jiang Lingxue again, "I guess... you are Jiang Lingxue, right?"

"It's me." Jiang Lingxue smiled.

"Cheers to you." Ji Zhezhi said softly.

"Okay." Jiang Lingxue also drank all the wine in the glass. There was no hostility in her eyes, just a hint of amusement.

Ji Zhezhi refilled the glass and looked at Lu Xiaoxiao, "Sister Xiaoxiao, toast to you."

She and Lu Xiaoxiao are of the same year, and it is not known who is older. Compared to Jiang Lingxue's playful eyes, Lu Xiaoxiao's eyes seemed much colder, but she looked so obedient that Lu Xiaoxiao did not refuse and picked up the wine glass to drink with her.

Ji Zhezhi raised his glass again and looked at Xu Wanyue, "So you are Xu Wanyue?"

"Eh? How did you know it was me?"

"Because you look a lot like your sister. He told me you have a sister."

"Is that so? Drink less." Xu Wanyue held the wine glass with both hands and spoke softly.

Ji Zhezhi took a sip as promised, then looked at Grape, "Sister Grape, this is for you. I hope I can exchange fighting techniques with you one day."

Grape first glanced at Lin Cheng, and after a moment she replied softly, "Okay, there will be a chance."

Lin Cheng watched Ji Zhezhi toast all the girls at the table, except Qin Wutong, of course. He seemed to recall the day of their wedding, when the girls walked from table to table holding wine glasses, smiling in their eyes, drinking one glass after another, and finally falling limp in his arms.

Xu Linglan was still confused when she was toasted, and waved her hands, "Sister, don't get me wrong, I just came here with my sister to eat for free."

"Shall we take a sip?"

"Yeah, yeah."

Sure enough, Xu Linglan is only a bully at home and is timid when facing people she is not familiar with.

After finishing this round of drinking, Ji Zhezhi reached out his hand, gently covered his lips, took out a tissue on the table, wiped off the wine that overflowed from the corner of his mouth, and then sat there quietly and obediently, with his head slightly lowered, as if he had drunk too much.

Of course Lin Cheng remembered her alcohol tolerance, so she wouldn't drink too much. But after a moment he understood that in this way, the possibility of a quarrel had been eliminated. If someone wanted to cause trouble for her next, it would be their fault.

Of course, this may not necessarily add much favor to them. When a woman hates someone, anything she does can be a reason to hate her.

"What about me? What about me? We have been good sisters for so many years, and you don't even drink with me?" Qin Wutong widened her eyes, full of dissatisfaction.

Ji Zhezhi replied softly, "I can't drink anymore, let me rest for a while."

"Hey, I don't believe you. You drank so much on your wedding day."

The corners of Lin Cheng's mouth twitched slightly.

The word "marriage" was like a fuse, and the atmosphere at the table suddenly changed. Silly Roe Deer always managed to come up with something fancy for him.

"Oh yes, get married."

Jiang Lingxue suddenly raised her head and said, "When we found out about your marriage, we were all very surprised. He didn't even tell us about such a big thing in advance."

Her eyes were bright as she looked at Ji Zhezhi in front of her, "Moreover, they didn't even invite us... Is it because we are not worthy?"

Ji Zhezhi slowly raised his head and said softly, "According to family rules, my wedding is approaching and I don't have much time to prepare. I can't contact the outside world in Paradise. I'm sorry."

"What's there to be sorry about?" Lizhi lazily leaned back in her chair. "The wedding that day was between him and your Ji family, so why not have another one? Another wedding with his family? We are all his family."

Ji Zhezhi is now in a dilemma. It is not right to do it, and it is not right not to do it.

Just as Lin Cheng was about to speak, Ji Zhezhi suddenly whispered, "On the day of your wedding banquet with him, I will definitely toast you an extra glass."

"Miss Ji, why are you laughing? He is already your husband, why should I marry him?"

"My engagement with him is just a rule in Utopia, and it's only recognized by everyone in Utopia." Ji Zhezhi looked into Lizhi's eyes, "The rules in the outside world require a marriage certificate."

"Aren't you going to get a replacement?"

"I don't need this kind of thing. Part of the reason I married him was because my family pressured me too much. I didn't want to marry anyone else and give birth to a child for him, so I married him. I am still a virgin." Ji Zhezhi shook his head slightly.

"I also made an agreement with him that if either party doesn't want to, they can divorce."

In an instant, Lizhi suddenly understood why Lin Cheng agreed to marry Ji Zhezhi.

In her impression, Lin Xiaocheng is definitely not someone who is full of expectations for marriage. Let alone getting married, even the word "love" makes him want to run away at the speed of light. It seems that Ji Zhezhi has a firm grasp on Lin Xiaocheng, perfectly guessed his thoughts, and avoided the parts that he resisted.

"I was not thoughtful enough about the wedding banquet. I will give you a big gift at your wedding banquet in the future."

All eyes fell on Litchi again.

At this moment, everyone looked at Lizhi with different eyes. After all, up to now, Lu Xiaoxiao and Xu Wanyue were not quite clear about the relationship between Lizhi and Lin Cheng. They only knew that Lin Cheng and Lizhi had a good relationship like a family, and the fruit shop was also established by them together. But Lin Cheng never told them the specific relationship between him and Lizhi.

Only Jiang Lingxue knew clearly.

As a person who enjoys having fun, she was particularly happy at the moment, pinching her thigh lightly with her fingers. She originally thought that Ji Zhezhi would bring bad luck to Lizhi, but Ji Zhezhi's strategy of retreating to advance was so beautiful that the girls' eyes became strange again when they looked at Lizhi.

What is the relationship between him and Litchi?

Lu Xiaoxiao and Xu Wanyue began to feel confused at the same time.

293 No!

"You misunderstood." Lizhi smiled and shook her head, "I have no plans to marry him yet."

Ji Zhezhi looked at Lin Cheng. There was no loss in Lin Cheng's eyes. He really had nothing to lose. Whether Lizhi married him or not, they were destined to be an inseparable family. Nothing could separate them.

Their relationship does not require marriage to prove its intimacy.

"Is that so?" Ji Zhezhi nodded gently. She suddenly lifted the bottle on the table and poured some more into her glass. She said softly, "Are you curious about why he married me?"

"Everyone gathered together because they were curious about this matter. You showed up so suddenly, and the news of your marriage also came so suddenly. Everyone was shocked." Lizhi replied.

Ji Zhezhi's glass was half full again. She whispered, "Because I deceived him. I used the favor he owed me for exhausting the energy of the Zhezhi Sword to trick him into accompanying me to the Utopia and disrupting my martial arts competition to recruit a bride."

"From disrupting my martial arts match to getting my family to play a whole show with me. From disrupting the martial arts match to the fake marriage, when he realizes the truth, if he regrets it, I will become a joke in the entire Utopia."

"I took advantage of his gentleness and kindness to achieve my goal. I knew he would take my face into consideration. I am such a despicable woman."

Ji Zhezhi's eyes were calm when she said these words. Her voice was a little soft, and her snow-white cheeks were slightly flushed because of drunkenness. "I met him five years ago. We were very young at that time. We couldn't tell what was liking and what was loving. We just faced the abyss together as companions. He saved me many times. Maybe that was when I fell in love with him. Later, he became even more powerful and joined other teams. He became the pillar of mankind and went to the abyss. And I had to return to the Utopia. This was the constraint my family imposed on me."

"Three years passed like this. Only after three years did I have the chance to leave the paradise and return to the outside world to look for him. But three years seems to have changed a lot of things. I seem to have come a little late. He has already known you, and his love for me seems to have faded away with time, so I can only use some despicable means."

"I know you don't like me, but I don't care about this kind of thing. If he thinks I should leave him, I will leave obediently, but he can only tell me this in person. If he doesn't say it, I won't leave."

After saying these words, Ji Zhezhi drank all the wine in the glass. She started coughing because she drank too fast. Lin Cheng came to her side and gently patted her back and gently grasped her shoulders. "Okay, okay, don't drink so much. Lizhi doesn't hate you."

Lizhi looked at the scene in front of him and shook his head helplessly.

She poured herself a glass of wine and put it to her lips. "So what you mean is that you will depend on him in the future. You don't have to perform all this for me. I just want to know what your relationship with him is now. I didn't say anything when he hooked up with other girls in the past few years. It's his own business. How can I interfere? It's as if I'm forcing you to drink and bullying you."

Although Lizhi's words were not soft, that was indeed what she meant.

She always just complained about Lin Cheng, no matter if it was Jiang Lingxue, Lu Xiaoxiao, or Xu Wanyue, the most she said was just grumbling, but she never really made a fuss and asked Lin Cheng to stop contacting them.

If she really wanted to make trouble, she would have started from the night Lin Cheng and Lu Xiaoxiao met in the bar. How could there be so many stories in the future? She didn't care how many women were around Lin Cheng, she cared about Lin Cheng himself.

"I invited you here today because everyone is curious about you, and I have something to ask you." Lizhi's glass was filled to the brim, and she said softly, "Don't drink anymore, take a good rest. Since we are all a family in the future, do you want to join the fruit shop?"

"Joining the fruit shop...what do I need to do?" Ji Zhezhi asked softly.

"You don't need to do anything, it just means that we will be a family from now on."

"Okay."

"Welcome, cheers to you." Lizhi drank all the wine in the glass, put away the previous indifference in her eyes, and her brows gradually became gentle.

Qin Wutong looked at Lizhi eagerly, "Can I join too, sister Lizhi?"

"Hmm? Why do you want to join?"

“It feels so lively when everyone is together!”

"You ask Lin Cheng."

Qin Wutong looked at Lin Cheng eagerly again, hugged Lin Cheng's arm and began to shake, "Let me join in, I want to play with everyone too."

"Okay, okay, then you will be the dragon fruit from now on."

"Eh? Dragon fruit looks weird, what are you?"

"I'm Watermelon Boy."

“Hahahahahahahahahaha.” Qin Wutong laughed so hard that her body shook. “Then I’ll be the dragon fruit.”

Lizhi lazily leaned back in the chair, her legs crossed under her skirt, and looked at Ji Zhezhi, "What about you? What do you want to be called?"

"Yuzu." Ji Zhezhi answered softly.

"Okay." Litchi nodded slightly.

..........................................

The atmosphere at the table put away its previous tension and anxiety, and gradually became lively again.

Every time there is a party, there always has to be a noisy person to liven up the atmosphere. In the previous parties, Lin Cheng was the one jumping up and down and making a lot of noise, but now there is one more noisy person, Qin Wutong.

The game at the table continued. Qin Wutong was a drunkard and had a lot of fun playing alone against many people. Although he was silly, he soon became friends with them. Jiang Li was dizzy from drinking and a lot of the wine she lost was blocked by Lin Cheng. She felt a little uneasy in her heart, but when she saw that there was not much hostility in the eyes of the others towards her, she felt a little relieved.

During the break at the table, Lizhi came to sit next to Jiang Li and said softly, "Don't worry too much. Although we are all capable people, since he brought you here, we can also be a family. Add contact information. You can find me if you need help in the future."

Jiang Li obediently took out her phone and added Lizhi's contact information. Jiang Lingxue also came over and patted Jiang Li on the shoulder, "Shall we add one too?"

Jiang Li was quite flattered. She knew Jiang Lingxue, of course, but this was the first time she had such close contact with her. She had even gone to see Jiang Lingxue's concert with Lin Cheng that day.

Jiang Li added a lot of people on WeChat at once. She carefully noted each one of them. Ji Zhezhi also added her as a friend. The atmosphere seemed harmonious at the moment.

Xia Ning is here tonight too, she's just standing there in the corner.

The game at the table was over, and Lu Xiaoxiao suddenly wanted to swim for a while. She glanced at Jiang Lingxue, who asked softly, "What's the matter?"

"I want to swim."

"Then shall I accompany you to change into your swimsuit?" Jiang Lingxue tilted her head.

So the two girls stood up together and went to the locker room. As soon as Lu Xiaoxiao took off her clothes, Jiang Lingxue came over and couldn't help but reach out and touch her bear, "Your size is too much."

After all, Lu Xiaoxiao was plump and Jiang Lingxue was slender. Lu Xiaoxiao felt a little awkward for a moment. Seeing that Jiang Lingxue was about to lower her head and take a bite, she stretched out her hand and put it on her forehead, and asked faintly, "What are you doing?"

"I want to kiss you."

“…No.” Lu Xiaoxiao refused decisively, but Jiang Lingxue smiled happily, “You’re so stingy.”

Lu Xiaoxiao picked up her swimsuit and began to put it on carefully. Jiang Lingxue was also wearing a swimsuit and asked out of the blue, "You don't seem very happy?"

"Should I be happy?" Lu Xiaoxiao was silent for a while and asked softly.

"It's up to you."
