Chapter 1612
"Right here, tell Captain Shangguan to come over."
Wei Li nodded.
She said nothing, but briefly sent a few messages to Shangguan Ting.
Zhao Chi guessed she had something she didn't want him to hear.
Zhao Chi, on the other hand, spent 4 improvement points and maxed out his looks directly.
"Ah! That's it, Zhao Chi, how did you do it?"
Wei Li's surprised voice came through.
She instinctively leaned her body over, her small chest pressed against the edge of the table, squished out of shape.
Zhao Chi said nothing, also staring at Wei Li.
Wei Li actually felt a little embarrassed.
She clearly desperately wanted to look at Zhao Chi, but was too embarrassed to look.
She'd sneak a glance every half second, then sneak another half a second later.
"Is my change really that big?"
Wei Li stared at him and nodded vigorously.
But then shook her head.
"Zhao Chi, I feel like your features haven't actually changed, your eyes are still the same, your nose and mouth too, but the feeling you give me... is really different."
The moment the two had exchanged a couple of sentences, a pair of stocking-clad beautiful legs appeared at the edge of the table.
It was Shangguan Ting in uniform.
Shangguan Ting was only a squadron leader, she didn't have the authority to teleport like this.
But she was Shangguan Ting.
"Ah, Captain Shangguan's here, I'll be going then, goodbye."
Wei Li immediately stood up.
She gave Zhao Chi a deep look, left reluctantly, and closed the door properly.
Shangguan Ting stood in place.
Her eyes looked at Zhao Chi in surprise.
She looked him over thoroughly, from top to bottom.
Zhao Chi was truly on pins and needles.
Facing a beauty like Shangguan Ting, Zhao Chi now felt time passing very slowly.
It was really hard to imagine how those who did this professionally endured it when faced with ugly, fat female clients.
And facing that kind of female client, they probably couldn't get it up at all, right?
Shangguan Ting kept staring at Zhao Chi without speaking.
Zhao Chi said helplessly: "Captain Shangguan, why are you just standing there? There are three seats here, if you have something to say, sit down and talk."
That sentence was like a switch.
Shangguan Ting immediately nodded.
"May I sit on your inside?"
You fucking...
Clearly she could sit across the way, but she insisted on sitting in the seat next to Zhao Chi, pressed up against him.
Fine, fine, fine.
For the sake of the Fuxi Qin fragment, he'd endure it.
Zhao Chi stood up and gave up the seat.
Shangguan Ting kept staring at Zhao Chi as she slowly scooted in and sat down properly.
Zhao Chi looked at the seat across the way and thought about sitting there, but thought about it and decided against it.
Shangguan Ting had paid such a huge price just to spend 10 minutes with him, and he had already agreed, so let it be.
She just wanted to sit beside him, wanted to see what he looked like now up close, so let her look.
Zhao Chi still sat back down in his original spot.
But he immediately felt a bit of regret.
Because Shangguan Ting was too close.
Wei Li had been the same just now, if not for the table blocking the way, Wei Li might have pressed right up against him.
Now Shangguan Ting was right beside him, Zhao Chi could smell the scent on her.
She hadn't applied any perfume.
Only the simple scent of laundry detergent and shampoo.
Although Shangguan Ting was a squadron leader, immensely powerful.
She was still just a woman, quite a bit shorter than Zhao Chi.
Now she slightly raised her head, her eyes misty as she stared at Zhao Chi, her eye rims seeming to redden.
Is it really worth all that?
She really looked like an狂热 female fan who had just met a celebrity.
At that moment, a server suddenly entered the door, giving Zhao Chi a fright.
A flash of killing intent instantly appeared in Shangguan Ting's eyes.
As if she was extremely displeased by the server's interruption.
Fortunately, the server left immediately after bringing in a full evening tea set.
The killing intent in Shangguan Ting's eyes was immediately replaced by tenderness and apology.
Apology?
Where would any apology come from?
Did she truly feel sorry toward him?
Definitely not…
Most likely she got it wrong.
Shangguan Ting murmured at this moment: "Zhao Chi… you… you received all those things, right?"
This naturally referred to those 10,000 medicine pills and the Fuxi Qin fragment.
"Mm, received them. Thank you, Captain Shangguan."
"That Fuxi Qin fragment—I only had one myself, but I gave it to you."
What does this mean?
Did she regret it?
Shangguan Ting, as if she could read Zhao Chi's thoughts, chuckled softly: "Don't worry, once it's given to you it's yours. You agreeing to spend ten minutes with me already makes it worth it."
Zhao Chi pointed at the exquisite pastries and tea on the table: "Captain Shangguan, please try some."
Shangguan Ting nodded, poured a cup of tea, and handed it to Zhao Chi.
How would Zhao Chi dare let her do such a thing.
He immediately shook his head: "No need, you drink it yourself, I'll pour my own."
Shangguan Ting asked softly: "Have you been drinking? You reek of alcohol."
"Yes, I just had a gathering with classmates."
"Mm… being young is wonderful. A few years ago I was as young as you all are, and back then I often had gatherings too."
Zhao Chi: "…"
Shangguan Ting sighed softly: "But… later there weren't any more… I really do miss those days. Let's toast with this tea instead of wine."
Shangguan Ting raised her teacup.
That was no big deal either—Zhao Chi raised his as well and drained it in one gulp.
Shangguan Ting laughed: "Zhao Chi, go sit across from me. Being this close to me, you look stiff all over. Sitting face-to-face will also make it easier to see each other."
Zhao Chi couldn't have wished for anything more.
He immediately stood up and sat across from Shangguan Ting.
Shangguan Ting pouted slightly: "Look at you—really fled over there as if you were escaping."
Zhao Chi said: "You're overthinking it, Captain Shangguan."
Shangguan Ting revealed a smile of unmatched elegance: "Didn't I tell you before to call me by my nickname? I know you're unwilling, but for these last few minutes, will you address me that way?"
