Chapter 147 Olive Branch
Chapter 147 Olive Branch
When school was over, Qi Yan, who was walking towards the school gate with Ryan, received a message from Huo Linyuan.
"Come home tonight, I'll pick you up."
Qi Yan couldn't help but smile. Such an ordinary conversation could always make him put aside all his unhappiness and become happy.
Is this what it feels like to be in love?
At this moment, he felt his heart was filled to the brim, and even the air was sweet.
"Tsk tsk tsk... Looking at your expression, I know without guessing that your marshal is here to pick you up, right?" Ryan joked with a look as if he saw through everything.
Qi Yan hummed softly, with a bright and charming smile on her face.
Ryan was fed a handful of dog food and felt very upset.
You are asking questions even though you already know the answer. Well, you don’t need to eat dinner at night. You’ve already had enough sugar.
But he still couldn't help but marvel at how quickly their relationship developed. In Ryan's eyes, their relationship was a blank sheet of paper the day before, and it was already sweet the next day.
But he didn't know that this was the result of countless days and nights of companionship, countless times of life and death together. The bond between the two had long surpassed the weight of the word "love".
Because he wanted to see Huo Linyuan as soon as possible, Qi Yan quickened his pace. At this time, a group of people blocked their way.
It was the group of people who had followed Lanxi before, but Lanxi was nowhere to be seen in the crowd. The leader was that ruffian-like man.
Ryan crossed his arms and walked forward: "A good dog doesn't block the road. What, you're not convinced and want to take revenge?"
The ruffian-like man had a strange look on his face, and you could tell he was trying hard to suppress his emotion and appear "friendly".
"I remember you seem to be from the Deke family. Your father came to my brother to ask for the agency rights of the asteroid belt a few days ago. You wouldn't have forgotten it so quickly, right?"
"Or do you want me to remind my brother that your father has a good son?"
Ryan's words made Dirk Wally's face change again and again. He was used to being a playboy in daily life, and he had never felt so aggrieved.
However, thinking of the purpose of this visit, he suppressed the anger provoked by Ryan and turned to look at Qi Yan:
"We are hosting a banquet at Xianglan Waterside Pavilion tonight as an apology for what happened during the day. As the saying goes, there is no friendship without fighting. If you come, we can be friends."
This group of people came here for Qi Yan's image. They were not as confident as Ryan. In Lingxing, the largest circle of power in the entire galaxy, their family was not even ranked.
If today's incident gets out of hand, they won't be able to bear the consequences.
In Dirk's eyes, Qi Yan was a lower-class commoner who was even worse than them. Being able to make friends with them meant having the opportunity to come into contact with the upper class, and any normal person would not refuse.
What's more, Xianglan Waterside Pavilion is a top-level communication venue. Those who can come and go here are either the most powerful among the powerful or famous figures in the interstellar space.
Even Dirk had to ask his father to step in and use a lot of connections to get a reservation.
In his eyes, as long as he mentioned the name of Xianglan Waterside, extended an olive branch, and waved his hand, Qi Yan would follow him.
But what he didn't expect was that Ryan was there too. But now the arrow was on the string and had to be shot, and he also believed that Qi Yan would not refuse.
After all, if a powerless person wants to gain a foothold in the Star Leader, he will inevitably need to rely on other forces. Although they are not as good as the Vincent Family, they have a wide circle of friends, and ordinary people are too busy to please them.
Ryan sneered. It was unknown where his confidence came from, and how could he tell that Qi Yan came from a poor, lower-class family.
Not to mention Qi Yan's stunning looks and innate noble temperament, just her clean, pure and naive nature can tell at first glance that she was raised in someone's care and pampered.
Not to mention one Xianglan Waterside Pavilion, even if there are ten of them, as the son of the richest man in the galaxy, he can buy them just by saying so.
Thinking of this, Ryan was already looking forward to the scene where Qi Yan announced her identity and everyone was shocked.
Qi Yan looked at the words "I'm here" in the dialog box, quickly closed the terminal, raised her head and refused: "Sorry, I don't have time."
After saying that, he said goodbye to Ryan and trotted towards the school gate.
Ryan looked at his jumping figure and couldn't help but sigh that the power of love is really great.
However, this nonchalant attitude was seen by Dirk and the others as more offensive than a direct and arrogant refusal.
"He's just a poor boy from a remote planet, why is he so noble?" Someone in the crowd was indignant.
Then someone immediately agreed: "That's right, Dirk came to invite us personally, this is something that many people would beg for but cannot get."
It was not known whether these people were stupid or what. Dirk had already felt humiliated by Qi Yan's rejection, and now after hearing what they said, he felt even more embarrassed.
I had no choice but to say something harsh to Ryan who stayed behind: "He will regret rejecting me. You should know that behind me is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. If he misses the olive branch I extended to him today, he will never be able to gain a foothold in Lingxing."
His self-righteousness made Ryan no longer want to say anything. Ryan suddenly felt that it was really embarrassing to argue with a group of idiots.
He looked at Dirk like an idiot and said, "Some people are beyond your reach. Before you try to get close to them, you'd better look in the mirror and think about yourself. Otherwise, you'll be embarrassed beyond your control."
"Crown Prince? Haha..." After two sarcastic remarks, Ryan turned and left with an ambiguous smile, leaving Dirk with a pale face.
-
Qi Yan trotted all the way to the aircraft.
Huo Linyuan was still wearing his military uniform, and it was obvious that he had just rushed over from the military headquarters.
As soon as Qi Yan sat down, he lifted her waist and put her on his lap.
He reached out and wiped the sweat from Qi Yan's forehead. The temperature on the planet had suddenly risen a lot in the past two days and was already a bit hot.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Do you miss me so much?"
He joked like this, but his hands had already lowered the temperature in the aircraft.
Mermaids have a cold constitution and prefer a cool environment, so they are more afraid of heat than ordinary people.
However, Qi Yan unexpectedly admitted directly and generously: "I do!"
In Qi Yan's world, anything he believes in will not change, so he doesn't need to hide his love for Huo Linyuan.
Although he can be shy at times, due to his lack of experience, his way of expressing his feelings is always simple and straightforward.
But it was this pure and clean appearance that always inadvertently touched Huo Linyuan's heart.
Huo Linyuan couldn't help but pinch his chin and kissed him on the lips: "Little goblin."
Whenever faced with Huo Linyuan's closeness, Qi Yan would become at a loss. His face would turn red, and he would clench his clothes with his hands in nervousness.
However, this time Huo Linyuan simply let him go. After all, if he got into trouble, he would be the one who suffered in the end.
