Chapter 134 – Hey Friend, Have You Heard of ‘Siscon’? (34)
Little Pink : [Why do I feel like this operation is somewhat familiar…? Isn’t this exactly like the way Host acts dumb and clueless? Wow, male god, you’ve picked up some bad habits!]
Yan Luo : “How could it be me when I’m so sweet and lovely, beautiful and charming? Him being bad is because he was already bad; what’s it got to do with me?”
Little Pink : …
Being interrupted by Lu Buchi like this, Di Tian naturally couldn’t entertain any overly intimate thoughts towards Yan Luo in front of everyone.
While his eyes were slightly darkened, his face still carried a smile as he gestured for the two to follow him, “Major General Lu, Miss Yan, please come this way. Knowing Miss Yan was coming, the Imperial Academy has prepared accommodations meticulously a week ago, hoping Miss Yan will like it.”
Yan Luo reached out and linked her arm with Lu Buchi’s, a hint of a smile playing on her lips, “Thank you.”
Polite yet distant, she showed no sign of being attracted by Di Tian’s appearance and aura like those other girls.
This feeling intrigued Di Tian a bit, and the eagerness in his eyes deepened.
But now there’s a stronger figure guarding Yan Luo, who is her brother apparently? One is a pure-blooded Adjuster and the other an outstanding Ability User. The Yan family does seem to have a lot of talent.
Di Tian’s lips twitched slightly and he strolled casually beside Lu Buchi, casually asking, “Major General Lu, do you have other business here? When do you plan to leave? I heard Major General Lu is exceptionally capable, reaching the rank of major general at a young age. His Majesty even instructed me to learn from you more in the future; perhaps I could ask for advice in the future.”
“I might not be able to give advice, but I’m open for practice anytime.” Lu Buchi’s face held a smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes, seemingly friendly.
Di Tian paused slightly, “What do you mean, Major General Lu?”
“My task for this year is to ensure Luoluo’s safety. Unless under special circumstances, I won’t leave the Empire.” Lu Buchi’s eyes held a hint of amusement this time.
Looking at Di Tian’s gradually unpleasant expression, Lu Buchi spoke slowly with his tone seemingly mocking, “Please rest assured, Your Highness.”
“It seems the Alliance is indeed concerned about Miss Yan’s safety.” Di Tian’s tone carried a hint of gritted teeth, but still smiling.
Lu Buchi nodded as if it were only natural, “After all, Luoluo is an Adjuster with the purest bloodline in our Alliance. It’s only right. The Alliance demands me return her the way she came. So, Your Highness, you needn’t worry about this aspect.”
—Who the hell’s worrying about this aspect? We’re just afraid you won’t leave; that’s why we’re asking. You guys in the Alliance are just playing words with yourselves.
They’ve reached the car door by now. Lu Buchi glanced at Di Tian’s expression.
Lu Buchi chuckled lightly, reaching out to support the door frame, helping Yan Luo into the car first, then followed closely inside. The interior was spacious, enough for seven or eight people, very luxurious, but Lu Buchi insisted on shielding Yan Luo in a corner.
And he even played the role of a host, handing Yan Luo a cup of warm milk, watching as she sipped it slowly.
Both his actions and words conveyed a message: ‘how she came, how she’ll go back, the Empire needn’t bother about it.’
Though his tone was friendly, his actions were undeniably arrogant and domineering.
Not to mention the delicate situation between the Empire and the Alliance now.
Di Tian’s faint golden eyes squinted slightly as he got into the car.
