"Do you like me?"
This was a very common sentence. Perhaps everyone would have heard this sentence more or less in their lives. Those words seemed to ring out on a sunny afternoon. At that time, you were still young, youthful, and you could love unscrupulously. Once, we might have thought that we could hold on to each other's time and that love would never grow old. But time has reminded us more than once that it should not pass, and that it will never return.
So when you walked on the journey of life, you would stop by chance and suddenly look back, and you would be shocked to find that the scenery of the past had become blurry and the world had changed.
Do you like me?
It was a very light sentence. If you like me, then you like me. If you don't like me, then you don't like me. But no matter which answer, it meant a choice. And once a choice was made, there was no room for regret.
The room was very quiet.
Adele lowered her head and didn't hear any answer. She thought she knew the answer. Her lips were slightly curled up, and she was laughing bitterly. She planned to tell Allen that she was just joking with her usual indifferent attitude. However, it was hard to say the words out loud.
It was as if these words weighed a thousand pounds, even comparable to a mountain.
Her hands were cold, but the corners of her eyes were slightly hot. Her emotions were on the verge of losing control. It was only her pride, her pride, that prevented her from crying.
Then a warm hand held her cold palm. She looked up and saw Allen's fiery eyes. It was windy in the afternoon, and the wind blew open the curtains, so the sunlight could fall on Allen's face, causing the flying dust to stop like elves.
Allen reached out, held her little face, and whispered something in her ear. Then Adele's crying came from the room, getting louder and louder. Finally, she wailed like a child.
Allen said in her ear, "I like you, in the past, present, and future."
Then Adele's fell.
At this moment, all self-esteem and pride left her. She cried. Only tears could wash away the longstanding sadness, and she could follow this man to the future in a more relaxed manner.
In that future, she couldn't share the whole world with him. Because she knew that other women would appear around her.
But …
Who cares!
At least, she had a corner of his heart. Was he willing? Of course, he was unwilling. Love was selfish. Who didn't want to keep the person they loved for themselves? However, this cake was destined to be shared with many people, so no matter how unwilling he was, he couldn't change this ending. Therefore, what she could do was not to appear in front of him with a resentful face. That would only make him hate her. A smart woman would make herself more radiant in order to win more attention.
And Adele had always been smart.
After crying, Adele washed her face and changed into a woman's dress. From now on, she didn't need to wear men's clothes to arm herself, because a man had promised to protect her. So she could go back to being herself. Allen quietly sat on the side, quietly watching as she changed her clothes, put on makeup, combed her hair, and finally stood up. She was as beautiful as a princess.
"Come, let's go see Mr. Kate together.
Allen took the Princess's hand and said.
Adele blushed for the first time, but nodded without hesitation.
In the study, when she saw the well-dressed Adele, Old Kate dropped the book in her hand on the table and said, "What's wrong? My baby looks as happy as a singing lark."
Adele looked at Allen, wanting to say something. However, Allen pulled her back and stepped forward himself. "Mr. Kate, I want to change the content of the marriage between our two families. Before I came, I had already obtained the consent of my eldest brother, Rainer. I hope that I can replace my brother Rainer and complete the marriage between our two families with Adele. "
Old Kate immediately stood up and said excitedly, "Really?"
No wonder Old Kate was so excited. Originally, his ideal candidate was Allen, but Adele chose Rainer instead of Allen. Unexpectedly, after only half a day, things had changed so much that Old Kate was overjoyed. As wise as he was, how could he not understand the crux of the matter? He sighed and looked at Adele. "Fortunately, Allen is here today. Otherwise, you will regret it in the future, and Grandpa will be sad."
Adele's shoulders shook and she lowered her head. "I'm sorry, Grandpa, I was willful."
"Forget it, you can't be so willful in the future. Otherwise, let's see if Allen still wants you. "
"He dares!"
All of a sudden, the girl returned to her original nature, and both Allen and Old Kate laughed.
After leaving the Morsons, Allen brought Adele back to his house, met Horn in the study, and explained the situation to him. Horn was also very satisfied with the result. Bescot and the Morsons had always been on good terms, and now with the relationship between Allen and Adele, the two families would become even closer.
Moreover, this was a choice made by the young people themselves, and Horn was happy for them from the bottom of his heart. He immediately called Roddy over and asked him to announce the matter to the outside world. That night, a small private banquet was held in Bescot's mansion. The patriarchs of the various clans in the base were invited and the marriage between the two clans was announced at the banquet.
The banquet ended late at night, but the young people continued to make noise until dawn. Especially Reina, who had rushed back from Peter Town, caught Allen and drank, but in the end, he drank himself.
When the sky was slightly bright, Allen carried Reina to his room. Reina narrowed his eyes and snorted, "You know what, Allen? I didn't like you at all because you were too beautiful. I was thinking, such a guy actually wants to be my brother. Can he go to the battlefield? Even if he goes up, he will be scared shitless. "
"But then I discovered that you were also a ruthless character. Just thinking about it is fine. You are roughly qualified to be my brother."
"Remember when we killed the Dark Titan on Frost Star?"
Allen nodded.
"Now that I think about it, it seems like it happened yesterday. I think at that time, I really accepted having a brother like you. If you're just a weakling, don't expect me to admit you. But you're good, you're not a weakling. Haha. "
"You know what? You crippled that illegitimate son of Waffle, which was more enjoyable than defeating Capullo. It's just that you're still too light. How can it be enough to explode his eggs? You have to beat him half to death. What the hell? "
"You're drunk."
Allen pushed open the room and threw Reina, the big guy, on the bed. Reina hugged his pillow and shouted, "I'm not drunk. How can I be drunk? I can still drink. If you don't believe me, drink another dozen with me."
"Alright, alright, alright. I admit defeat, alright? You're the best at drinking. Now go to sleep. "
Reina said something vaguely and fell asleep, snoring like thunder. Allen shook his head and retreated from the room, his heart filled with warmth.
Just like that, another day passed. Finally, it was time for the Federation to negotiate with Capullo and the other forces. Today's negotiations were presided over by Mobius, the Federation President, and important figures such as Capullo, Vincent, and Wally would attend. Apart from that, more than a dozen clans, including Bescot, were also invited to attend. So early in the morning, Allen dressed up neatly. Today, he would attend the meeting with Horn and Roddy. It could be foreseen that this meeting would determine the fate of the earth in the future, and Allen sincerely hoped that it would be held smoothly and successfully.
After breakfast, there was already an airship ready at the base port. Arriving at the port by flying car, Allen followed Horn and the others to the airship. Many people came to see them off, including Adele. The Morsons had been invited, but Adele had no intention of attending and had only come to see them off.
Today, she wore a floral dress and a hat on her head. Although she was no longer wearing men's clothes, the feeling of a girl was still refreshing. She walked over and pulled Allen to the airship. "Be careful. I don't think Capullo and the others will agree so easily," she said.
"I will. Wait for me at home."
Allen kissed her gently on the cheek, and Adele let go of him. He walked onto the airship and sat opposite Horn and Old Kate, with Roddy. A moment later, his body trembled and the airship flew.
Leaving Bescot's family base, he headed for the Federation City where the meeting was held today, Caesar!
Mamus yawned and walked through the long and dark passageway. This was the ground base of the Federation Space Defense Agency. As a member of this base, Mamus had always been proud to serve on the base. It would be great if the working hours of the base could be shortened.
"Hey, Mamus. Didn't you sleep last night? If Mr. Ricca sees you like this, he'll be scolded again, right? "His colleague teased.
Mamus scolded jokingly, "You crow mouth, I really can't figure out why Jenny likes you."
"Because I have a flexible tongue. Not only will it say nice things, it will also do things to make Jenny happy."
"God, this is the base. Be careful what you say."
"Alright, see you after work, buddy."
Mamus worked on the base's monitoring platform. His main job was to observe whether the satellites in space were working properly. Of course, he wasn't the only one in charge of this job, but he was the only one in charge of the Sword of Dawn.
This was why Mamus was proud. That was the Sword of Dawn, known as the guardian of the earth. There were so many people in the base, and only he could face the Star Rail Cannon every day.
As usual, Mamus came to his workbench and opened the Star Rail Cannon's management system to browse through the readings. Then he hummed a song and poured himself a cup of coffee. Returning to the workbench, Mamus took a sip of coffee and began to activate the Star Rail Cannon's self-inspection program.
It was a tedious and boring process. Mamus, on the other hand, enjoyed it. As he drank his coffee, he hummed a few notes and began to imagine having a drink with the new, hot girls in the logistics department after work. He couldn't help but laugh when he thought about it.
