After taking care of Carrie and Lorna, Luke still hadn't been idle.
Because … there was still Skye.
Luke could only sigh. Spring was here, and it was time for people to communicate.
Fine, that was pure nonsense.
The truth was that the reserve team members he had invested in weren't too different in age, which was why this problem had arisen.
The three superpower sisters, Lorna and Skye were all in their early twenties, and were indeed at an important time to decide their futures.
If it were an ordinary person without resources or guidance, they would muddle-headedly enter society in their early twenties for a few years.
By the time they came back to their senses, they realized that they were already in their thirties.
At that time, if they wanted to change and work hard, they would need perseverance and courage that not everyone had.
Most people would muddle along like this and become one of the masses, living an ordinary life.
Lorna was a little like this, but her heaven-defying superpowers made Luke choose to make a move.
The others, on the other hand, were different. Luke had never let them do as they pleased.
They had received long-term training that surpassed the elite level in advance. Even the twin sisters, who were relatively idle, were far better than ordinary children who had been educated in "quality education" and "happiness education."
One of them was a B-list singer, while the other was a top internet celebrity. They had earned their positions mostly on their own.
Apart from their respective professional skills, they had at least received passing evaluations in psychology and economics.
They might not be as profound as some outstanding university students, but in terms of breadth and practical application, they were better.
When Stacy and Claire were together, not only didn't Luke relax, she became even stricter.
It was easy for him to say things like "Claire is so outstanding, aren't you afraid that someone even more outstanding will pursue her?" to make her self-esteem explode.
Stacy's abilities gave her a starting point that far exceeded that of ordinary people.
With strict self-discipline, it was easy for her to be outstanding.
But these girls couldn't compare to Skye.
With her extraordinary intelligence, she had always taken the initiative to learn. She had been collecting and organizing intelligence for PDD since a long time ago, and had now joined the Righteous Alliance.
If Carrie, Lorna and Stacy were his trump cards, then Skye was Luke's trump card.
She had a good start in intelligence and character, as well as auxiliary abilities and combat strength.
To describe it in one sentence, it would be, "Those who are smarter than her are not calm enough, those who are calmer than her are not strong enough in battle, and those who are stronger than her are not smart enough."
Luke barely had to worry about such an outstanding girl, but he was the one who met her most frequently.
Because … the person she recognized was Luke himself.
The one who caused the trouble this time was a rich young man introduced by Skye's classmates when he was in college.
She only treated him as an ordinary friend, but he actually wanted to be her boyfriend.
If the other party was a playboy, even if he was as rich as Tony, it wouldn't be a problem.
Skye didn't like him, and she wouldn't give him any face.
However, this guy, who was excellent in all aspects, was not fickle. Even with Skye's information network, he did not find anything wrong with him.
She had even guessed that he was gay, and that he was looking for her to use as a shield.
Unfortunately, there was no evidence that this outstanding young man liked men.
At this point, it was just a small interlude in life, and wasn't worth Luke making a big fuss about.
But Skye had come to see him twice recently.
Luke was a straight man, and his ability was even more straightforward. He easily sensed Skye's hidden thoughts.
The promising young man wasn't the main point. The main point was that this person had made Skye "covet" Luke.
Who could he blame for that? It was spring, and there were too many people who wanted to communicate with him.
That was the big problem that gave Luke a headache.
Skye had been found in the sewers by his original self. He had sent her to school, solved the problem of her ability damaging herself, and "found Big Dipper" to suppress the restless Jia Ying.
He wasn't surprised that she had a good impression of him.
But … they were too familiar. It wasn't easy to make a move!
He wasn't the only one who was familiar with Skye. Selina, Mindy, Joseph, and a lot of the neighbors in the Clinton area were familiar with him and Skye.
In addition, Skye's codename, the Sky Crippled Hand, was also well-known in the Bat Squad.
If he made a move, the trouble that would follow …
In all these years, Luke had only lost control of himself for a period of time in the first one or two years because his physical fitness had skyrocketed.
In the next five or six years, the only people who were close to him were Jenny, Elena, and Max.
He hadn't touched any of the other women who had been completely or partially delivered to him.
There were so many technologies and equipment to play with in the research lab, and he really wasn't interested in seducing women.
Many women looked at him with sparkling eyes, and most of them didn't like him, but purely lusted after his body.
Elizabeth, who had followed him from LAPD to NYPD, really liked him.
However, as their circles intersected less and less, Luke took the opportunity to "implicitly reject" her.
Skye, on the other hand, was an ace that he had personally groomed, and was still working in the Righteous Alliance.
Solving Skye's problem was much more difficult than solving Lorna's problem.
After careful consideration, Luke chuckled. He had been overthinking things.
He wasn't a casanova to begin with. It was best for him to stick to his usual straightforward personality.
Thus, he accepted Skye's invitation to dinner at a Spanish restaurant in Long Beach.
After a few years, Skye was no longer the little girl who lacked nutrition.
Her face was rosy, her lips were full, her long, wavy brown hair was smooth and shiny, and her eyes were filled with confidence and determination.
Sitting down across from Skye, Luke didn't hide his admiration as he nodded with a smile. "Looks like you've been doing well recently."
Skye wasn't shy at all. She nodded gracefully and asked, "Thank you for your concern. What about you?"
Luke chuckled. "Shouldn't we talk after we order?"
Skye slapped her forehead. "Yes, you like to enjoy good food."
Luke waved at the waiter and soon finished ordering.
Skye couldn't help but ask, "Can you eat your fill with so little?"
Luke nodded. "Of course not, but I don't think many people come here to eat their fill, right?"
Skye couldn't help but laugh.
Luke didn't want to beat around the bush, so he started the topic. "Do you have any ideas about finding a boyfriend?"
Skye's heart skipped a beat, but her expression was indifferent. "You want to talk about that rich young master? I'm not interested. "
Luke chuckled. "Don't forget, I'm also considered rich … young man."
Skye's eyes widened slightly, and she couldn't help but laugh. "You? Young man? "
Luke shrugged. "I'm only 25. I can't be considered middle-aged, right?"
Skye choked.
It suddenly occurred to her that the person in front of her was indeed very young.
Although Luke's face had always been "young," after spending so much time with him, he always appeared too "middle-aged," which made people subconsciously overlook.
After a brief silence, Skye pretended to ask casually, "So? Did you also meet a rich woman pursuing you? "
