Chapter 569: Marry me!

Song Qi had already said as much.

The Grand Leader pondered for a moment, finding it difficult to say anything more, and immediately flew back to the Imperial Capital to preside over the relevant meetings.

Song Qi, meanwhile, remained in Xijing.

Song Qi could still fulfill the promise he made to Liu Zi; living like that was truly worse than death.

Song Qi was no saint; he only did what he believed was right.

Liu Zi’s body had turned into an incredibly hard metal, with a melting point even higher than the temperature of a cremation furnace. Ordinary incinerators were completely ineffective and only caused Liu Zi to suffer in vain...

Therefore, Song Qi simply built a specialized ultra-high-temperature incinerator...

Watching Liu Zi’s body go from a skeleton to being completely melted into a pool of molten steel.

As Liu Zi’s voice vanished from this world forever, Song Qi suddenly felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.

As for relaying messages to Liu Zi’s girlfriend and mother, Song Qi was not adept at handling such matters, so he entrusted it to others.

After handling Liu Zi’s final wishes, Song Qi did not delay, but instead returned to Xijing Institute No. 11 without stopping, beginning the research and development of equipment to resist the Attendant Civilization’s molecular weapons.

With the system’s help, the plan for the new equipment was finalized very quickly.

With the full support of Long Guo, the collection of various materials also proceeded exceptionally smoothly...

For Song Qi now, time was life!

Not a single moment could be wasted!

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

During these three days, Song Qi worked sixteen or seventeen hours a day, resting only six hours besides eating!

All just to squeeze out some progress on the project.

However...

On the morning of the fourth day.

Outside the experimental workshop, a burst of hurried footsteps could be heard.

The next second, Dilraba, wearing a black windbreaker, pushed open the laboratory door with red-rimmed eyes and a fierce aura.

She stared straight at Song Qi and walked directly over.

Zhou Zhou Zhou Yonghui saw Dilraba storm in and was just about to greet her...

But seeing the aura Dilraba was exuding, Zhou Zhou Zhou Yonghui immediately lost his nerve.

He hurriedly and tactfully slipped out of the experimental workshop.

And even closed the door for the two of them.

Song Qi put down what he was holding, feeling Dilraba’s angry, wide eyes, and secretly groaned in his heart.

Judging by this posture, this girl likely knew something...

Now, she had come to hold him accountable.

Song Qi’s Adam’s apple bobbed, and he was just about to open his mouth to explain. ===== CHAPTER 1203 =====

Dilraba’s agitated voice came through without giving him a chance to speak.

"Song Qi! What exactly do you mean by this?"

"You don't keep your word! You big liar! What did you promise me back then? You said you definitely wouldn't go to dangerous places, that you would definitely take good care of yourself! And now? Tell me, what do you mean by this now!"

Since Song Qi had known Dilraba, this girl had always been soft and sweet in front of him; he had never seen her this angry before.

Dilraba looked at Song Qi, her eyes brimming with hot tears, yet she still gritted her teeth, struggling not to let them fall.

Song Qi didn't know what to do for a moment.

He could only try to comfort her: "What are you saying..."

"I'm just going to the Freedom Nation for a trip, I'll be back soon!"

"Don't worry! Nothing will happen!"

"..."

"Song Qi!"

Song Qi wanted to say more, but the next second, he was directly interrupted by Dilraba.

Dilraba stared fixedly into Song Qi’s eyes.

"Do you really think I'm a fool? Do you think I don't know anything?"

"Commander Wang has already told me! He said you are going to the Freedom Nation! Do I not know what the situation is like in the Freedom Nation right now?"

"In our Long Guo, I don't know how many soldiers have already died there! Everyone we sent out, none were spared! They all died!"

As she spoke, Dilraba finally could no longer control her emotions, letting the surging tears slide down from her eyes.

"Song Qi... you are really too selfish. Have you considered me? Have you thought about what I should do if you really die?"

"Didn't you promise me? You promised me that you would absolutely not go to such a dangerous place!"

"I don't agree to you going, I won't let you go, you cannot go..."

"..."

Dilraba’s emotions completely collapsed, and she cried like a tear-stained doll.

Seeing this, Song Qi hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Dilraba.

He let Dilraba’s tears soak his shirt.

Facing Dilraba, Song Qi’s heart was filled with guilt.

Outside, she was a household-name female celebrity in Long Guo, but in front of Song Qi, she was just a little girl longing for a family.

In Dilraba’s heart, there was no grand sense of duty to the country, and she didn't want to hear about the safety of the Blue Planet.

Her world was very, very small, small enough that it only contained Song Qi.

Upon learning that Song Qi was actually going to the Freedom Nation, Dilraba felt as if her sky was collapsing...

Looking at Dilraba in his arms, sobbing like a frightened little deer.

Song Qi felt extremely uncomfortable as well.

He gently patted Dilraba’s back, trying hard to soothe her emotions.

However, Dilraba in his arms only cried louder.

"Song Qi! Say something!"

"Tell me... that what Commander Wang said isn't true..."

"Will you? I beg you, don't go..."

Listening to Dilraba’s voice in his ear, Song Qi didn't know how to answer and could only remain silent.

He could understand Dilraba’s thoughts, but Song Qi also had reasons he absolutely had to go.

At such a critical juncture, if he, Song Qi, didn't go, who else could turn the tide?

Facing Song Qi’s silence.

Dilraba also gradually stopped crying.

In this world, for some things, silence is the best answer.

Dilraba pushed Song Qi away, her tearful, beautiful eyes gazing softly into his.

"Xiao Qi."

"You still decided to go?"

Song Qi looked into Dilraba’s eyes, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded heavily.

Seeing Song Qi like this, a flash of indescribable rejection crossed Dilraba’s eyes.

"Since you must go, I won't stop you!"

"But, I have one request..."

"You must agree!"

"What request?" Song Qi asked.

"Now, immediately, right now!"

"Marry me!"

Hearing Dilraba’s request, Song Qi was stunned.

"Why are you stunned? Are you unwilling?"

"I'm willing, I'm willing!" Song Qi hurriedly waved his hands and answered quickly: "We'll go get the marriage certificate tomorrow!"

"No!"

Dilraba shook her head firmly!

"I want a wedding! A wedding that attracts the attention of ten thousand people!"

"I want all of Long Guo to know that I am your wife, Song Qi! That you, Song Qi, married me with the three letters and six rites!"

"Do you understand what I mean?"
