Chapter 155: The Trouble of Too Many Men

At the end of the letter, she drew three stick figures holding hands at the level of a child's simple drawing, and wrote the names one by one on the top of each stick figure: Liu, Guan, Zhang.

After drawing, she held it up to examine it and smiled with satisfaction. She thought Anubis must know what she meant.

This friendship was too precious to Qiao Suisui. She even selfishly didn't respond to Anubis's confession because she didn't want to lose a friend, which was why she expressed her feelings in this way.

Actually, she hadn't realized at first that her liking for Anubis was completely different from her liking for Luka and Zongfang. That feeling was like walking in a foggy morning, with smoke-like drizzle falling from the sky. By the time she came to her senses, she realized belatedly that she was soaked all over.

Is it intense? It doesn't seem so.

But that is the purest, greenest, and most sluggish liking, and it is also a liking that will never be replicated in a lifetime. She didn't know how Anubis walked into her heart, only that every time she thought of him, there was an indescribable sense of peace.

Some people may not be able to amaze time at first, but they must be able to soften the years. Anubis is the latter.

Qiao Suisui set the time for the second time capsule to today one year later, then sealed the two capsules in an iron box, buried them in the soil pit, and stepped on the land flat with her feet.

She was afraid she wouldn't remember the location, so she scattered a seed on this land. This is a Baijian tree that can only survive on the Southern Battlefield. It was taken casually from Zongfang's culture dish before coming out.

Qiao Suisui squatted in place and was in a daze for a while, muttering to herself: "If you read the letter by then, and we still like each other, then let's be together. By then, I will stay, stay forever."

Zongfang ended the call and walked toward Qiao Suisui. Seeing her still squatting there, not knowing what she was looking at with such concentration, he walked over and touched her head.

"Let's go, the temperature is about to rise."

Qiao Suisui agreed. Seeing Zongfang wanted to hold her hand, she dodged in a panic: "My hands are dirty."

She had been digging pits and burying soil all the time, and her hands were full of sand now.

Zongfang took her hand back in front of him, then bent down, grabbed a handful of sand, and threw it away.

He held her hand tightly with the hand full of sand and said: "I'm dirty too."

Qiao Suisui let him hold her hand and walk back in a daze.

In the same scene, if Luka were here, he would definitely wipe her hands clean with his clothes gently before holding her hand. But Zongfang chose to get dirty with her directly and would never let go.

The two walked hand in hand under the yellow sand, and a team of people came toward them, seeming to have been waiting for a long time.

Qiao Suisui squinted and looked over, then opened her eyes in surprise.

"Ashi!"

She waved to Laiboli, but Laiboli's gaze was fixed on their interlaced hands, his expression deep.

Laiboli greeted her almost the first second he saw her. At this moment, regardless of anything, he hugged her tightly, bent down, and buried his head in her neck, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.

"I was worried crazy..."

Qiao Suisui patted his back and saw the crowd he brought behind him all lowering their heads consciously. She couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed.

"Alright, alright, am I not fine? Besides, you should pay attention to your image in front of your subordinates."

A beastman with good hearing couldn't help but think: The image of the Sun being henpecked has always been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so there is nothing to pay attention to.

Laiboli didn't let go of her, and rubbed against her intimately for a while before separating reluctantly. During this time, Zongfang stood behind Qiao Suisui, watching coldly.

Zongfang raised his wrist to check the time, walked up, and directly pulled Qiao Suisui behind him by her arm. He didn't say a word, but it was as if he had said everything.

Laiboli raised his chin slightly and stared at him.

The two's gazes clashed in the air, as if electric sparks were popping.

Qiao Suisui poked her head out from behind Zongfang and said: "Um... how about we go in first?"

Laiboli left a team to guard, others returned to the warship to check the equipment to ensure they could set off tomorrow. Then he followed Qiao Suisui back to the shelter. As soon as he entered, Ka'er greeted him immediately. After seeing Zongfang's poor complexion behind Qiao Suisui, he caught a glimpse of Laiboli following at the end.

The two met, both startled.

Why is there another one? Laiboli's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

"Yo, what wind blew you here?" Ka'er sneered with his arms crossed.

Laiboli's brows were cold, and he glanced at him without any expression. Then he bypassed Zongfang to pull Qiao Suisui's hand and said: "Sui Sui, talk to me."

The next second, Zongfang and Ka'er stopped him at the same time.

Zongfang said: "Say whatever you have to say here."

Ka'er's gaze was unkind, he didn't speak, but it meant the same thing.

Laiboli sneered, mocking himself: "Sui Sui, do I not even have the qualification to talk to you alone now?"

Qiao Suisui felt a burst of pressure, "No, Ashi, you..."

What could she say? She wanted to say don't misunderstand, but she really couldn't explain it. Zongfang was still okay. Even if Laiboli wasn't happy before, he had lived with him in the Huangting for a period of time and could maintain superficial harmony. But if he knew about Ka'er... thinking of this, Qiao Suisui shuddered. These two hadn't gotten along from the beginning.

Finally, the four sat down in the living room, the atmosphere tense.

Laiboli spoke first: "Sui Sui, I came here this time specifically to take you back."

Qiao Suisui lowered her head, like a child who made a mistake, and said in a low voice: "I was just preparing to let Ka'er take me back."

Ka'er saw her guilty appearance and was furious. She was fierce like a little tiger in front of him, why didn't she have any temper now? He put his arm on the back of the sofa, leaned lazily in the sofa, and said leisurely: "What did you do wrong? Raise your head. We just stayed a few more days, which is faster than taking someone's broken flying ship."

"What does it have to do with you?" Laiboli questioned coldly: "I came to take her back to the Huangting, and you are not welcome there."

Ka'er smiled, stared at Laiboli with his chin raised, and said to Qiao Suisui: "It has nothing to do with me? Good girl, tell him, what is our relationship?"

Qiao Suisui looked at Zongfang for the first time, only to find that this man had spoken very little from the beginning, and was sitting quietly in the chair beside him, lowering his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

Her hesitation and silence made Laiboli sneer at Ka'er: "What kind of relationship can it be? Sui Sui is the worst at refusing others. Don't you think you have a chance?"

Ka'er's brows cooled down in a split second. He turned his head to look at Qiao Suisui, making it impossible to see the waves surging at the bottom of his eyes, but his persistent gaze seemed to be waiting for an answer from her.

Qiao Suisui felt breathing difficulties. It had only been a few days since she defaulted to her relationship with Ka'er, and she was completely unprepared, especially with Zongfang present. She originally wanted to talk to Zongfang slowly in private before telling others, but now she was framed here. Admitting her relationship with Ka'er felt like it had changed flavor, as if she had done something shameful and was about to be judged.

She opened her mouth, feeling a bit blocked in her heart, and couldn't say it for a long time.

At this moment, Ka'er's silent questioning and Laiboli's pressing step by step made Qiao Suisui feel like running away.

Her head got lower and lower, not looking at anyone, her fingers nervously picking at the tender flesh on the inside of her nails.

Suddenly, a slender and powerful hand covered her hand, stopping her small movement of picking her fingers.

Zongfang held her hand, pulled her up from the sofa, hugged her waist, and took her away from the living room.

"Since you two like to chat, chat slowly here. She went out just now and needs to change clothes."

Saying that, he pulled her away without looking back.

Laiboli stood up "suddenly," his face somewhat distorted by anger. He just wanted to chase after her, but was blocked by Ka'er, who was sitting with his legs crossed.

"Don't go, aren't you fond of chatting? Come on, let's chat."

Tell you a good news. The activity I asked everyone to vote for before (the one you told me you wanted to vote for but the activity had already ended, haha), it was close, I was also on the list. It was my heart being too big. When I told you, the voting time had already passed, which led to everyone wanting to help me but failing. Anyway, I still want to send you a welfare chapter. It's just that the platform hasn't been selected yet. I want to choose Po, but I'm considering whether some friends don't have a ladder? Because Ai Fa Dian and VB are not safe now. I will tell you when I decide, pay attention to the author's words in time. Vote for monthly tickets and recommendation tickets, subsequent welfare like this will be scattered irregularly.
