Chapter 8, The Exquisite Robot Prince
Why is she acting so strangely today? Is there something she cannot say directly? Why does she still show a troubled expression?
In the days that followed, Ling Qing ordered her personal assistant to prepare meals every day, ensuring that there was always a portion for me, and she also sent me the latest high-quality dramas, thus I gained a good sister.
"Last time I was just teasing you." His gentle palm covered the back of my hand, warm and with a very real fleshiness, even I was puzzled.
Let's go, we must get it authenticated
Why? I asked tentatively, as I felt he seemed to know a great deal of things, and in his presence, I felt like a blank sheet of paper
She stared at the photo with wide eyes in astonishment, tears welling around her eyes, and after a few seconds—
Is this really considered news? This news has already spread throughout the entire academy, can you provide something more fresh?
not ... ...
"Regardless, I will fulfill my responsibilities, as this is something I promised him." I announced loudly to the girls present, hoping they would see my determination and give up early to go to sleep
There should be love among allies in order to cooperate better with each other
If Ling Qing is allowed to go, Hua Ying Ye will definitely get angry and will not let Ling Qing off the hook. Moreover, I will also break my promise, and the identity of Ze Jiu Ying will be exposed. This group of girls may also suffer misfortune, so even if I have to be the villain, I must do it this once
"How could it be you? Are you also messing around with them?" My hand trembled slightly as I looked at Ling Qing with a complex expression. She slowly walked out from the group of girls, her face displaying an awkward and somewhat restrained expression.
A group of girls excitedly discussed and giddily made their way towards the "Mysterious Place," their purpose being to admire the "Robot Prince"
"Sister Wei, you go ahead, I still have something to prepare. I will contact you later," Ze Jiu Ying said before quickly disappearing from my sight. At the same time, NO. 1 and NO. 2 appeared before me in a flash, enthusiastically guiding me.
You must be curious about the origin of "Love Day"; it indeed has a story behind it. "Zejing Sakura looked at me, as if trying to see into the depths of my heart
Because today is the 'Love Day' of the Cosmic Academy. He said softly, gazing at me gently, his starry eyes sparkling with a charming luster as warm and gentle as water, truly beautiful, so exquisite
Seeing me lost in thought, he suddenly approached. Under the sunlight, his long eyelashes cast shadows on his beautiful lower eyelids, adding a touch of tenderness. He asked me slowly, "Sister Wei, do you not want to see me?"
Zejiao and I sat side by side at the top of the "Wings of Angels," admiring the buses that occasionally flew by in the sky, their sudden bursts of speed resembling meteors streaking across the heavens
Today, the school is abuzz with the news that the legend of the school's curse is indeed true! Last night, someone saw the cursed robot!" Immediately, another girl's voice, filled with surprise and mystery, echoed.
What does "Love Day" mean? ... As I curiously observed my surroundings, I walked towards "Angel Wings," and I realized that the flyer in my hand had fallen at some point. Just as I was puzzled, I heard a girl laughing excitedly.
"You have forgotten, I can say that I am the shadow of the flower at night, and I am also wearing a mask." He chuckled lightly, unafraid of being discovered, and gracefully touched the mask on his face. The tenderness in his eyes made it impossible for me to continue pretending, and a sweet smile appeared at the corners of my mouth
Because ーー
The shadow of the flowers did not hold me back, just when I thought I was saved
"And what?" Ling Qing curiously leaned closer, staring at me for a moment. Then, as if she understood something, she revealed an expression of disbelief. "An Mingwei, tell me, did you promise something to Hua Yingye? Otherwise, why would you be so willing to help him!" She guessed it right!
Students, you must not proceed any further! It is very dangerous! If you become entangled in a curse, you will become very unfortunate! Very unfortunate! I rushed over, opened my arms to block them, and pressed the sensor at my waist. The robots assisting me on duty will arrive shortly; this group of people is indeed difficult to handle
Completed
Fortunately, I ran fast that night; otherwise, I would not have known how to conclude the matter. Of course, I also owe it to Ze Jiu Ying's assistance at that time. However, what surprised me the most was that Hua Ying Ye did not punish me in the days following that night, nor did he bring up the events of that evening. Everything seemed to have calmed down.
Then why do you always wear a mask, never allowing others to discover you? Moreover, all the students from the 'Mysterious Place' have gone to be exchange students at night, yet you appear there. What is the reason for that?
"I was just about to look for you, but I didn't expect you to come on your own." Yi Ming suddenly sprang out from the woods, his bright, sparkling eyes twinkling adorably. It was only then that I noticed he was wearing the sleeve of a night patrolman on his arm and holding a silver flashlight in his hand, seemingly just back to work
Dear Robot Your Highness, I have arrived! Haha ... ...
The situation has become quite tricky
"You move aside!" A girl shouted at me, clearly displeased because I was obstructing their movement.
"Don't tell me, you are the robot created by that couple!" I covered my mouth and chuckled, my eyes observing Ze Jiu Ying's expression.
As I passed through the "Gate of Wisdom," I swiftly sensed that the atmosphere on campus today was unusual. Male and female students were gathered together, dressed splendidly, completely absent of the usual hustle and bustle of rushing to classes, and there were also many robots distributing flyers.
"How long have you been here?" Under the scrutinizing gaze of the flower shadows at night, I had no choice but to speak first, taking two steps forward before coming to a halt
Why is he looking at me with a gaze that combines scrutiny with a hint of inspection, and harshness with a touch of appreciation? If I remember correctly, he usually either mocks me or snorts coldly; today, his attitude is different, and it seems somewhat unusual!
The man's name is Shen Yi, who was the most renowned genius inventor of his time, while the woman's name is Tian Zhi, who was also an exceptionally outstanding representative.
At that time, the principal established a rule prohibiting romantic relationships on campus, but there was one day when this rule was lifted, and that day was the day they went missing, which is today, known as "Love Day"
In the end, they suddenly disappeared and were never seen again at the Academy of the Universe, with no one knowing their whereabouts. Some rumors suggest that the two initiated a rebellion against the institution's system due to their dissatisfaction; others claim that they vanished in the "Wings of Angels" to resist the constraints of fate. Various versions abound, but later students tend to favor the latter explanation
I nodded slightly and said softly, "In fact, this is also a school regulation"
Being a little angry is acceptable, but it should not harm the feelings between brothers; once it passes, it is forgotten
"It’s all your fault. During the last robot drama, I could have made a magnificent comeback in front of Hua Ying Ye, but it was all ruined by your detestable Sun Wukong!" Ling Qing sobbed, tears streaming down her face, completely devoid of the ladylike demeanor she usually displayed on the television screen, resembling a complete abandoned wife
In fact, I heard everything that just happened, and I saw it clearly. There is no need for you to take everything personally. " Huaying stood firmly in place, still with her arms crossed and that cool expression on her face.
Suddenly, I saw a very familiar face among the group of girls; it was none other than my classmate, good friend, and close sister—Ling Qing, whom I interact with every day
What is he so excited about? Why is he looking at me with such a struggling and confused expression? It's really strange. Has my brother become so self-reproachful that he's lost his mind?
"You haven't called me recently; are you blaming me for the mistake I made during the last play..." Yiming quietly asked me, seemingly worried that I would turn around and leave
I do not understand what you mean. I looked at her in confusion, blinking my eyes in doubt, while kindly smoothing her disheveled hair. After all, Ling Qing is a star and should pay more attention to her image
Wait! I called out to him and curiously chased after him, asking, "What day is tomorrow?" This is because he usually does not allow me to take a day off unless there is an event at school
After patrolling for more than three hours without discovering any unusual circumstances, it is now approaching twelve o'clock, and I estimate that no one will appear. I was just about to turn back to the "Mysterious Place" to find Ze Jiu Ying when I inadvertently overheard someone speaking in the grass parking area.
After I walked away, I faintly heard one of them quietly suggest, "Shall we sneak out tonight for a night tour and see the 'Robot Prince'?"
Remember, do not come out under any circumstances
I sighed helplessly, it seems that Ze Jiu Ying was seen by someone last night, it appears that I must strengthen my preparations for tonight, a woman's curiosity is truly a terrifying thing
In the early morning, I walked into the "Mysterious Place" carrying a leather bag. As soon as I entered, I saw Ling Qing sitting gloomily among the flowers. Ever since that incident last time, she seemed very upset and had not spoken to me much lately
What do you want me to do here today? I get straight to the point, my mind filled with curiosity
"Alright, Wei Mei, you really don't need to be so nervous. I believe in you." His handsome face broke into a gentle smile, and I felt my cheeks begin to flush. Every time he looked at me with that expression full of tenderness, tinged with a hint of shyness, I couldn't help but feel the urge to scream.
My heart is in turmoil, unable to suppress its "thump thump" beating wildly
"How did you end up with panda eyes?" I sat beside her, comfortingly wrapping my arm around her shoulders to help her calm down. This little witch is quite pitiful, having been bullied by Huaying Ye to this extent.
"These are all secrets." A misty aura emerged in the crystal-clear depths of Zhe Jiu Ying Li's eyes as he tilted his head, his delicate lips almost brushing against my ear. "Sister Wei, you will naturally know in the future; I cannot say anything now." His warm breath wafted by my ear, and I blushed instantly, feeling that this was too ambiguous
I understand, because I also have someone I like, I certainly understand that feeling! I nodded heavily, pulled away Yi Ming's arm, and slowly took two steps forward. How did I end up saying all of this!
Last night, Yi Ming skipped work, which resulted in an increase in my patrol duties. Fortunately, after returning to the dormitory, I received Yi Ming's message of "remorse," which made me feel much better. Since I was too busy last night, I didn't go to keep Ze Jiu Ying company, but I am determined to go tonight.
An Mingwei! The Chairman is looking for you everywhere! Hurry to the 'Sakura Hall'!" Before Ze Jiu Ying could finish speaking, she was interrupted by a loud shout coming from the distance, "NO. 1"
An Mingwei, you ... ...
Wuwu... Ling Qing sat in the flower bushes, covering her face with both hands, her shoulders shaking as she cried. I thought that if her fans saw this scene, they would surely think that I was bullying her
"Are you not speaking from the heart?" Huaying raised her delicate chin towards me, a faint mockery lingering in her light brown eyes. For some reason, I vaguely felt that her tone had lowered significantly, as if it carried a hint of... regret... disappointment...
"An Mingwei, stop right there." He called out to me in a tone that was neither warm nor cold
I looked up at the enormous electronic bulletin board of the academy, where a few words appeared—Love Day, all faculty and students are on holiday
The two individuals were originally mortal enemies, but they fell in love due to competition. Their romantic relationship led to a decline in their "performance," and even the robots they developed were completely rendered useless.
He looked at me without changing his expression, reached out to pull my hand away, and leaned in front of me to answer seriously: "I have told you, I am not a robot, I am a person, a human being"
"Young master Yi, it would be best if you do not get too close to him," Ze Jiu Ying kindly reminded as she changed her posture
In summary, you cannot leave now, wait a little longer, he will be here soon
You will know tomorrow. His gaze swept across my cheek, presenting a cool demeanor, with his light brown eyes shimmering with colorful glints. The usually sharp intensity of his gaze seemed much more subdued at this moment, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, his handsome smile captivating my attention.
"Let’s go back! It’s so eerie in the academy at night, it’s quite terrifying!" A girl exclaimed with a trembling voice, surely they are here for another adventure...
He has a purpose... Zé Jiǔ Yīng extended her slender fingers, elegantly brushing aside my disheveled hair, gazing at me intently, compelling me to confront him face to face at close range
What is this? A green transparent electronic board, and there are many codes on it that I do not understand
"What is so remarkable about the shadow of the flowers at night, that you would stand on his side?" Ling Qing seemed unable to accept the reality, "I only stand on the side of responsibility"
I sighed, continued my patrol with the flashlight in hand, and thought that he might not be in the mood to patrol tonight.
The golden mask appears even more dazzling under the gentle sunlight, with a faint halo quietly swirling around him, a beauty that is breathtaking
"What is wrong with you?" I slowly walked over, crouched down, and asked her with concern, "Why are you crying so early in the morning? Who has bullied you?" I reached out to pull away her hands that were covering her face.
I followed NO. 1 and NO. 2 to the Cherry Blossom Pavilion, where the two hurriedly departed. The surrounding cherry blossoms were in full bloom, with petals drifting down, as if one were immersed in a sea of cherry blossoms. This is an independent garden located within the Shijou Academy, and every time I pass by during the night patrol, I cannot help but stop to admire the beautiful scenery
Ling Qing's gaze shifted, remaining silent without speaking, nor did she continue to incite the group of infatuated girls who had come to admire Ze Jiu Ying.
No, I am absolutely sincere, and I do not want your reputation to suffer any harm, because you have said that we are allies I helplessly bit my lip and discreetly wiped away the sweat from my palm
Of course, it was beaten by the robot from Flower Shadow Night. My most proud robot was turned into scrap metal by that damned gorilla beside him, sob sob sob... The youthful idol star, loved by everyone and blooming like flowers, was lying on my shoulder, crying and wailing with a pile of tears and snot, while sporting a pair of large dark circles under her eyes
I continued to nod in agreement, and to match his expression, I also showed a slight struggle, as he was pinching me quite painfully
"Very well." He nodded slightly, a smile in his eyes, showing no sign of opposition. His gentle eyes shimmered with a radiant brilliance, truly beautiful...
Suddenly
"It's nothing, I just don't want you to be with anyone else today." He released my wrist, slowly lowering his eyelids as if contemplating something, his long, curled eyelashes trembling slightly in the wind
It seems that out of fear, he broke his leg. When the chairman learned of this, all the students were expelled! After school, the boys gathered on the playground, leading the robots in exercise while discussing the major events that occurred on campus last night
What? A look of surprise flashed in Yiming's big eyes as he grabbed my shoulders and shook me vigorously, "You said you have someone you like?"
Hmm. The shadow of the flower responded in a seemingly understanding yet ambiguous manner. I nervously took a few steps to the side and awkwardly said, "I... I... I went to patrol!"
Day of Love Liberation
"How did you end up here? It's very dangerous outside lately, and you dare to walk around without a mask?" I nervously pulled him into a corner to avoid being spotted by the patrolling robots outside. His audacity is truly increasing; no wonder someone said they saw him last night.
I had no choice but to stop in my tracks, tidy up my mindset, and turn back to him with a smile, "Is there anything else?" The smile on my face was stiff, and my courage could not hold out for much longer, sob sob
It is no wonder that she is so happy, as I gave her the photo of Hua Ying Ye and Yi Ming KISS, and of course, I kept one for myself, hehe
Yiming's expression is quite strange; he has been silent, sulking in the corner.
I gently blinked my eyes, casually brushing aside the strands of hair on my cheek, and returned to the "Mysterious Place" with Ze Jiu Ying. I had originally intended to sit down and chat, but considering the recent circumstances were somewhat dangerous, I abandoned this "luxurious" thought. After giving him some instructions, I went outside to patrol.
Hey! Stop taking pictures! My eyes are all dazzled! Who the hell turned on the flashlight?!
Fortunately, there are no outsiders around... all the classmates are busy dating elsewhere
Today marks the day of love liberation! La la la! My Shadow Night, I must confess my feelings to you! The female students of "The Gate of Wisdom" are dressed adorably like dolls, gathering together to chatter excitedly, with hearts floating all around.
More than a hundred years ago, specifically in the early 24th century of the last century, during the peak period of technological advancement at the Cosmic Academy, seven highly capable individuals emerged, among whom a pair of men and women had always been arch-enemies.
Seeing me blush and lower my head, he leaned closer, his delicate nose almost touching my face. I nervously clenched my hands, but he lightly laughed and stepped back, asking me in a soothing voice: "Am I right, Sister Wei? You will protect me, won't you?" His melodious voice strongly stimulated my hearing, and a rush of excitement surged to my head.
As soon as I turned around, I saw...
This is the sensor that supervises all night patrollers in executing their tasks. If anyone is late or absent without leave, there will be a record on this supervision board. He handed the supervisor to me and commanded, "Place your finger on it to scan and set the record for tomorrow's day off."
I did not know that Yiming would input the lines incorrectly. If I had been there to supervise him that day, perhaps the mix-up would not have occurred. It is all my fault, all my fault, although Yiming is also at fault!
If he is truly handsome, then even if it is a curse that leads to my demise, I will still go to see him every day
I gazed at his crystal-clear eyes in a daze, deeply captivated; those eyes seemed to possess a certain magic that made it impossible to look away
I decided ... ... '' He rested his chin on his hand, pondering something
"You don't know ... ... " I replied softly, forcefully prying open the hand he was gripping me with. Huh, what is wrong with him? Suddenly using so much strength.
In any case, it has nothing to do with me, I quickened my pace and hurried towards "Angel's Wing", hehe, the most important thing is to see Ze Jiu Ying as soon as possible
He is truly super handsome! He is the most perfect "human" I have ever seen
That damned bastard Huayingye insulted me, calling me incompetent, an idiot, and mentally challenged, so over the past few days, I secluded myself to create a robot. Last night, I took my robot to confront Huayingye. Lingqing wiped her nose with her sleeve, leaving me utterly speechless
I don't know to what extent that 'robot prince' is handsome, I'm so excited, I really want to see it! The girls were swinging in the swing area by the playground, excitedly discussing the handsome robot. As I passed in front of them, each of them showed a timid expression, looking at me like a thief.
Since the last robot drama performance, every night the "Mysterious Place" has been rather restless, with girls coming to explore. I have already caught seven of them.
Have you heard? Last night, someone from Group A ran away to the campus and encountered the cursed robot!
The discarded robots were all buried in the basement beneath the "Mysterious Place". From then on, the "Mysterious Place" became a site for scrap recycling, and it was not until a few years ago that it was fully integrated again, transforming into the current "Mysterious Place" where elites gather (the students attending evening classes are all high-level elite talents from the Cosmic Academy)
I held the new flashlight that Ze Jiu Ying gave me last night, strolling along the path from the "Gate of Wisdom" to the "Hand of God". The bridge here is only a few meters wide, with water beside it, and the entire bridge is almost parallel to the water's surface, equipped with invisible guardrails on both sides, extending infinitely forward
An Mingwei, seeing your bewildered expression, I will provide you with a 'Today's Briefing'. The chief coordinator for distributing flyers, Robot 007, slid over to me and handed me a promotional flyer
Ling Qing forced a smile and turned to the group of girls, saying: "Classmates, let's head back for now. The president of the executive committee is about to arrive, and if we get caught by him, we might face expulsion. Let's all go back today, shall we..." It was evident that no one could disagree with such words coming from an idol star like her, and it was clear that the girls were very convinced by her.
Soon, she sighed, patted my waist, revealing her little witch nature, and said with a smile: "You must be careful during your night patrols. Don't worry, I will bring them all back for you."
"It is the flashlight of the night watchman! Fool! We have been discovered!"
Zejou Sakura slightly lowered his head, the strong wind billowing his garments, causing his chestnut-colored hair to flutter chaotically in the breeze, like delicate silk dancing in the air
I found the 'Mysterious Place' quite dull, so I came out for a walk and happened to run into you. " Zeku Sakura looked at me with gentle eyes, taking out a golden mask from behind and putting it on his face. "Then I'll put on the mask; is it alright now?" He chuckled softly, his voice tender as if it were meant to resonate deep within one's heart
Not at all! I adjusted my smile and saw that Yiming still looked sad. I blinked in confusion and said, "Yiming, why are you suddenly asking this? I'm really not angry, you don't need to blame yourself anymore"
I want to uphold the reputation of the Chairman! I interrupted the speaker and immediately stated my position, "The matters entrusted to me, I must take responsibility for; I cannot allow you to go back on this."
I helplessly smiled wryly as I took his hand, patting it as one would when educating a child, and assured him, "I promise you, I am not angry about the play; I am not such a petty person, am I?" I smiled as I observed his expression; he pouted, his brows furrowed together.
Is what you said true? Can I really take a break tomorrow? I can hardly believe my luck; will the Flower Shadow Night allow me to have a holiday?
Due to Yi Ming's recent absences, there has been no one to patrol the "Hand of God". I have temporarily taken over his patrol duties. I am not sure if he is afraid to face me, but I suddenly find myself missing him a bit
... ...
He gently pulled, and I fell down beside him
"What I said is all true." I turned to Yi Ming, slightly taken aback, and I noticed that his eyes were red. What on earth happened to this guy?
The annual Love Day has arrived again, haha, how wonderful!
After confirming that no one was around, I quietly told Ze Jiu Ying: "I received reliable information that a group of girls will come looking for you tonight. We should hurry back to the 'Mysterious Place' now, and I will cover for you then. You must not show up at all". I felt like a spy
To prevent unforeseen events, I have equipped robots 001, 002, and 003 with the necessary tools, and I have also put on my sleeves to begin tonight's patrol
"Ling Qing, you should take them back. Your presence makes it difficult for me to act..." I forced a helpless smile, trying to persuade her half-heartedly, "Before the robots arrive, you all should leave quickly. I will pretend I saw nothing." I had already reached my limit; if the robots came, it would be too late.
"You forgot, when we first met, I also came out during the day, and there were no issues at all." Ze Jiu Ying's gentle and melodious voice rippled in the wind, his slender fingers entwining around my wrist, the warm and soft touch making it utterly hard to believe that he is a robot
As I passed by the "Gate of Wisdom," I heard a lot of gossip about the recent rumors concerning the curse of robots during the night on campus
"Why do that? It is wrong to use this method to confront Huayingye!" I shone the flashlight on her delicate face, hoping she would quickly recognize the truth. Using this method to oppose Huayingye is no different from playing with fire and getting burned.
We have also heard that I came here for that robot prince, as rumors say he has been made very handsome, almost indistinguishable from a real person
Who is it
Wuwu, I already said I wouldn't come, being caught will definitely result in losing academic points! Wuwuwu... Those girls are chattering incessantly, as if a group of mother ducks are talking.
I walked down the bridge and entered the large garden, discovering that there were many patrolling robots nearby, and I could often hear the sound of the robots gliding.
I waited for almost an entire morning at the "Sakura Pavilion" but did not see the shadow of Huayingye. I decided not to wait any longer, and as I angrily walked out, I saw the CJ robot. CJ skillfully handed me a letter, which was addressed to the fairy from Yi Ming, asking my good brother An Mingwei to deliver it for me
Throughout the day, Lingqing remained hidden in the corner, mysteriously making phone calls, while Mr. Yi became my exclusive instructor, haha, I usually don't have such good fortune
"I didn't expect you would announce to others the maintenance of my reputation." He chuckled ambiguously a few times, observing my expression. I helplessly furrowed my brows, nervously gripping the flashlight in my hand
I was feeling down as I held the envelope. Just after I walked a short distance from the "Sakura Hall," I saw Ling Qing rushing towards me, her expression appearing somewhat flustered
He fell silent, withdrew his hand, and turned his back to me, seemingly angry, truly like a child
I reached out my hand to help him wipe away his tears, but he hurriedly stepped back, throwing a piece of grass at me like a child, huffing in anger: "You have someone you like now, and you forget about your brother; you are forsaking friendship for love!" After saying this, he ran away with red eyes. What is wrong with this child? He is already so grown up, yet he is acting like a little girl, playing jealous.
I furrowed my brows with concern and stepped out, the strong beam of the flashlight shining on them. I cleared my throat and questioned sternly: "Which class are you all from? Have you forgotten the rules of the academy?! Everyone must adhere to the prohibition on night excursions!"
I will give you something, so please stop crying. I took out the wallet I always carry from my pocket and handed a photo to Lingqing
An Mingwei, why did you leave?! She nervously grasped my arm, leaving me feeling perplexed. Why can't I leave? It was Huaying Ye who brought me here, not her.
"Let them be curious; it's not so easy to see me, especially with you protecting me." In Ze Jiu Ying's gentle, water-like soft eyes, a faint glimmer passed by, bright and captivating, an indescribable allure that made my heart "thump" heavily.
Indeed, the school usually does not allow us to engage in romantic relationships, stating that we need to focus on developing the nation's top-tier technology and not be distracted.
That is because I do not have your phone number
I looked up in confusion and saw him take out a small electronic sensor from his pocket
Ladies and gentlemen, I cannot allow this! It concerns your safety, as well as the safety of Ze Jiu Ying, and I have previously assured Hua Ying Ye that absolutely no unrelated individuals are permitted to approach the "Secret Place"
I understand. She said that the shadow of the flowers at night is about to arrive. I looked at the envelope in my hand and apologetically said, "Then you can wait for him on my behalf. I have important matters to attend to right now. If he comes, just tell him the truth." I smiled, but deep down, I felt a bit concerned. I had already waited for more than half a day; what did he take me for!
When did Ling Qing stand on the side of Hua Ying Ye? There must be a problem with this!
"Do I look like I'm joking?" A hint of a smile flashed across his lips as he walked past me to check on the patrol.
"Why did you show up so early today? There are so many people in the academy during the day; aren't you afraid of being seen by others?" I pretended to be angry as I stood beside him, mimicking Hua Yingye by crossing my arms and pouting my lips in a huff. A gentle breeze brushed through my hair, stirring my long black locks and the hem of my skirt.
I have decided to grant you a day off; you may rest tomorrow and will not need to participate in the night patrol. The sudden change in his tone surprised me, and I widened my eyes in astonishment at this unexpected reward.
How could there be such a exquisitely beautiful person? He really enjoys joking with me
My current mood cannot be described as happy; upon hearing that I have a day off tomorrow, my heart is almost soaring with excitement. Is this considered a reward for my dedication from him
According to the principal at that time, due to the incompatibility of their magnetic forces and the rejection of fate, they were unable to come together, let alone become outstanding mechanical experts
That gorilla must be invincible, and I feel an immense sympathy for Ling Qing.
In the shadow of the flowers at night, you must not blame me, for I did it to help my classmates by 'betraying' you
It is not a mocking smile, but rather a smile of appreciation; such opportunities are indeed rare
Hahaha... she hugged me tightly while crying and laughing, and gave my cheek a firm kiss, "An Mingwei, I forgive you, I forgive you for everything. From today on, you are my best friend, I love you!" She kissed the photo lightly with overwhelming joy, hugging me tightly once more, to the point where I could hardly breathe.
What exactly happened? What did the shadow of the flower do to you? My intuition tells me that there is something wrong here
Our school is truly strange, and on a day like today, it's no wonder that Huayingye agreed to let me have a day off. I muttered a few words softly, not expecting to catch the attention of Zejiuqing.
The shadow of the flowers leisurely approached me with arms crossed, exuding an air of regal authority from his calm and composed expression, as if he were surveying his subjects. I could understand that this was the innate "dignity" he possessed as the chairman, yet I still found myself stepping back two paces under the weight of his invisible power
As they were leaving school, I still did not forget to remind them
As I walked across the grass, I suddenly heard a sound from the bushes. I shone my flashlight over and saw Ze Jiu Ying without a mask. The soft, glossy brown strands of his hair shimmered with a halo, and his exquisitely chiseled profile was illuminated by the light, highlighting his fair skin that appeared translucent.
"Hmm! I will definitely do it!" I smiled and nodded emphatically, but I noticed that Ze Jiu Ying seemed momentarily taken aback, as if he did not expect my response to be so straightforward. In that instant, his eyes were filled with tenderness, revealing a captivating smile like a celestial melody, and my heart rate quickened again
Suddenly, a pair of dark panda eyes appeared before me. Ling Qing's delicate face was filled with infinite sadness, and upon seeing me, she cried even harder. The flowers nearby seemed to be startled, trembling gently a couple of times.
"I am sorry, An Mingwei, it was I who brought them here." Ling Qing stepped forward, mysteriously pulling me aside and quietly apologizing to me.
It has been a long time. The shadow of the flowers casually circled around me a few times, and seeing my eyes flickering, it swiftly lowered its head, fixing its strangely meaningful gaze on my eyes.
"I haven't been avoiding you on purpose these days; it's because I had to go back home due to family matters, which is why I haven't told you anything." Yiming pouted childishly, pushing aside the bangs on his forehead with a displeased expression. "I apologize for the robot drama performance; due to my oversight, I ended up writing the lines as if I were speaking to a fairy. You should understand my feelings for the fairy, right?" He gently shook my arm, his childlike face filled with a complex expression.
No, I am very willing to see you, because ever since you stopped cursing me, seeing you brings me good luck, and... and you are so pleasing to the eye, so handsome, so gentle, and so kind to me, of course I am very eager to see you! I silently added a few more sentences in my heart.
Every day I make my nightly rounds on time, and I also go to the "Mysterious Place" every day. Recently, Ze Jiu Ying has been asking me to go outside the school to buy food for him, and he has given me quite a few gifts. Just to name a few, there are solar-powered flowers, a flashlight with a freely rotating head, and a newly developed model of a computer...! ... At least seventeen or eighteen items, I would say!
Several times, I was almost caught by the shadow of the flowers at night, but fortunately, I was clever and successfully evaded capture
Are you angry? He tugged at my sleeve and shook it. Like a child who has done something wrong, he lowered his head in shame, his golden hair tousled by the night breeze, the collar of his school uniform slightly lifted, and his big eyes filled with regret and sadness
"Then hurry up! Be careful on the road!" I nodded with a smile, and only after watching them leave did I truly breathe a sigh of relief. Standing in place, I let the wind blow for a while to dispel the cold sweat on my forehead, and then I notified the robots to continue their positions for guarding, without needing to come over again.
Last night, someone saw you, and now the entire academy is buzzing with rumors about you. It would be best for you to stay out of sight for a while, as many people outside are curious about you. I suggested that he come with me to the 'Mysterious Place,' where we are both very familiar with the terrain, and there are many hiding spots.
Having guessed her intentions, Ling Qing grasped my arm and explained in a pleading manner: "Please do not wrongfully accuse me, they came to see that 'Robot Prince', I was just 'happening' to show them the way!"
Sister Wei, today is a special day, I will be waiting for you at "Angel's Wing" in the southwest corner of the academy
It is quite strange, Zhe Jiu Ying usually does not arrange to meet me during the day. There are so many students during the day, it is very dangerous for him to come out. I hurriedly rushed to "Angel's Wing" with concern
I placed my finger on it, and a green light swept over my finger. The floral shadow of the night retracted its delicate sensor, and it immediately commanded me: "What are you still dawdling for? Hurry up and go on patrol."
Ling Qing and Mr. Yi nodded at me in succession, and I couldn't help but wonder if it was my illusion, but I felt that their movements were somewhat stiff, as if they were reluctant. After glancing at them a few times, I left.
"Hehe, I clearly saw you eating a battery in the cafeteria that time." I brought out the ironclad evidence buried deep in my heart
"Why did no one inform me that you returned to school today? Had I known earlier, I wouldn't have had to make this trip." A smile was on my face, yet I vaguely sensed that Yi Ming seemed quite upset.
Oh my goodness! Please do not punish me! I absolutely cannot be expelled! I have worked so hard to get rid of that group of girls; I may not have any achievements, but I have certainly put in a lot of effort.
I ran across the grass and climbed onto the enormous stone-carved wings, where I could see a perfect silhouette quietly seated at the pinnacle of the wings from a distance
The next day, I received a text message from Ze Jiu Ying in the early morning
Come, come, come! There is news! According to eyewitnesses from last night, the cursed robot is super beautiful!
Oh, if you don't want to speak, I won't force you. I helplessly bit my lip, gazing at the smiling Ze Jiu Ying with starry eyes. His eyes were enchanting and gentle, enveloping me like warm pond water. My heart warmed; in fact, I did not mind his identity.
The shadow of the night soon arrived, just wait a little longer... Despite Ling Qing's desperate attempts to stop me, I quickened my pace and successfully left.
I gently brushed aside Lingqing's hand and shone the flashlight on those girls who were trying to take the opportunity to rush past
Dear students, please be quiet first. I gestured to indicate for them to calm down, realizing that there were probably more than ten girls, and the scale of the night outing had indeed grown quite large, sigh...
Hmm?
The situation caused by Sun Wukong that night unexpectedly led to a significant increase in the television station's ratings, which pleased both the school principal and the radio station leaders, allowing me to avoid feeling too embarrassed in front of Mr. Yi. However, I still could not reverse the situation of receiving a score of zero
No way! What is that person from Group A doing now!
"Ling Qing, Mr. Yi, the academy has not been very peaceful at night these past few days. Please do not go out for night excursions; it is very dangerous outside." I smiled warmly.
I nodded honestly
The "Wings of Angels," located in the southwestern part of the academy, is a wing-shaped building with enormous "angel wings" constructed on lush green grasslands comparable to the Scottish plains. Against the backdrop of the azure sky, it seems as if the entire Cosmic Academy is poised to soar into the heavens.
Zejiao turned her head, her gaze directed towards the distance
I was just trying to send them away, and I also promised you...
The shadow of the flower stood not far behind me at the fork in the road, his arms crossed in front of his chest as he observed me with great interest, as if he had been standing there for quite some time. I was a bit worried that he had seen me let Ling Qing go, so when my gaze met his, I instinctively averted my eyes.
"Do not cry anymore, I did not expect the consequences to be so severe, and it has even affected you to receive a score of zero." I helplessly blinked my eyes, sighed with regret, and took out a tissue from my pocket to wipe away Ling Qing's tears.
Why? I looked at him in confusion, not understanding his meaning
