Chapter 70 A Shy, Burning Heart

Zhi Xin seemed to sense those gazes, and her body stiffened slightly.

She took a deep breath, as if summoning immense courage, and slowly raised her head to look at Su Yi.

Her eyes, like the clearest lake, were now filled with shyness and nervousness.

"Hello, male...male god."

Her voice was so soft it was almost inaudible, her cheeks were as red as ripe apples, and her eyes darted away, completely avoiding Su Yi's gaze.

"I...I am Zhixin!"

After saying this, she seemed to have used up all her strength, and quickly lowered her head again.

All that remained was a cute whorl of hair facing the crowd.

Upon seeing this, Yan's gaze instantly sharpened, piercing Zhi Xin like a knife.

He Xi's smile became increasingly playful.

She glanced at Zhixin, then at Su Yi, and then at Yan, who had a knowing look on his face. She found the situation incredibly amusing.

Leng and A-Zhui were also taken aback, seemingly not expecting Zhi Xin to react this way.

Hannibal, in the shadows of a corner, shook his head almost imperceptibly, gaining a new understanding of the king's charisma.

Su Yi himself looked at Ruoyi, the guard whose eyes were red even at the tips of his buds, and felt both amused and sentimental.

The angels' matching system is truly astonishingly efficient.

He knew perfectly well why Zhixin was acting this way.

The right-wing guards of Holy Keisha should, in theory, be among the calmest and most rational executors.

However, at this moment, she is like a little girl experiencing her first love.

The only explanation is that so-called data matching and genetic resonance are at play.

He coughed softly, breaking the subtle and slightly awkward silence in the living room.

"Miss Zhixin, please don't be nervous. Just make yourself at home."

Su Yi's tone was gentle and casual, trying to ease the other person's embarrassment, "Would you like a cup of tea? Or juice?"

"No...no need! Thank you!"

Zhi Xin quickly waved her hand, her voice still soft, but at least she dared to secretly glance at Su Yi.

He Xi, always eager for a good show, chimed in with a smile, "Oh dear, my Zhi Xin is shy, Xiao Su Yi, please don't mind."

"Well, she heard there's a really knowledgeable guy here, and she insisted on coming over for an academic exchange. Right, Zhixin?"

"Teacher...!"

Zhi Xin was so embarrassed by her teacher's teasing that she wanted to crawl into a hole and glared at He Xi.

But that look wasn't threatening at all; instead, it made him seem rather cute.

Yan stood to the side with his arms crossed, his face growing colder and colder. His eyes darted back and forth between Su Yi and Zhi Xin, and he let out a barely audible snort.

Academic exchange?

You're kidding me!

Zhi Xin's little thoughts were practically written all over her face!

Leng frowned, seemingly displeased with Zhixin's unbecoming behavior.

However, because He Xi was present, he did not say it directly.

Ah-Zhui found it interesting, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.

Su Yi took in everyone's reactions, his mind racing.

Zhi Xin's arrival signifies that Keisha's attention towards her has escalated further.

Moreover, it certainly carries some kind of binding intention.

Yan's reaction was also quite interesting.

The competitive spirit of this left-wing guard seemed to have been completely ignited.

As for He Xi?

This Heavenly King was purely a spectator, and he couldn't be happier if the scene became even more chaotic.

"Since it's an academic exchange, that's perfect."

Su Yi continued, following He Xi's words with an innocent smile, "I've recently become very interested in some of the technical principles of angels, such as the ultra-efficient transmission of energy circuits."

"Miss Zhixin is a highly accomplished disciple of the Heavenly King; her skills must be profound. Would it be convenient for me to seek her guidance?"

He changed the subject naturally, giving Zhixin a way out and pulling her out of her awkward shyness, while also cleverly getting to his real purpose.

Sure enough, Zhi Xin's eyes lit up instantly when academics and technology were mentioned.

That scholarly focus and confidence quickly overwhelmed his shyness.

She sat up straight, her expression becoming serious.

"Is the male god interested in the technology of the angels? Regarding energy circulation, we recently applied a new technology to the seventh-generation armor."

She began to explain in a clear and organized manner.

Although her cheeks would still occasionally flush slightly when she looked at Su Yi, she had generally returned to the standard expected of a right-wing guard.

Su Yi listened very attentively, occasionally asking several key questions.

This shows that he didn't just ask casually, but rather had thought about it quite deeply.

The atmosphere between the two quickly shifted from ambiguous awkwardness to focused academic discussion.

Yan watched from the side, her feelings becoming even more complicated.

On the one hand, she was displeased that Zhixin had become so friendly with Su Yi so quickly.

On the other hand, she had to admit that Su Yi was indeed very charming when he got serious.

Moreover, listening to their discussion, Yan herself subconsciously began to think about those technical issues, and even wanted to chime in and express her own opinions.

He Xi, standing to the side, observed the subtle interactions between the three young people with great interest, her fingers lightly tapping the armrest of the sofa.

hand.

That's interesting, really interesting.

Zhi Xin's shyness and focus, Yan's jealousy and resentment, and Su Yi's thirst for knowledge and ease.

It seems this place will become even more lively in the future.

Hannibal, however, had quietly retreated into the shadows, like the most silent guardian.

As long as the king is safe, he has no intention of getting involved in these minor issues between the angels.

The academic discussion continued for quite some time until night fell, when Hannibal quietly reminded them that they had other things to do that night.

Zhi Xin stopped, still feeling a bit embarrassed, and said to Su Yi, "Sorry, my idol, I think I talked too much."

"No, I benefited greatly."

Su Yi said sincerely, "Zhi Xin, your knowledge and logical ability are admirable. I hope we will have the opportunity to exchange ideas in the future."

"Um!"

Zhi Xin nodded vigorously, her eyes sparkling.

Then, Su Yi turned to look at Yan.

"Yan, you're in charge of arranging where Zhixin and the others will rest."

"Hannibal and I still have things to do tonight!"

"etc!"

Yan shouted almost instinctively, suddenly standing up from her seat.

As she watched Su Yi and Hannibal's departing figures, a strong sense of unease welled up within her.

Is he going to do something?

What's wrong?

Is it dangerous?

Why can't I bring her along?

A jumble of thoughts clashed within her.

Upon hearing this, Su Yi paused slightly.

"Um?"

He uttered a simple interrogative syllable.

"I....

'

Yan opened her mouth, the words "I want to go too" swirling in her throat, but were swallowed back the moment she met Su Yi's calm gaze.

"Keep an eye on the house."

Su Yi's tone was calm but left no room for argument.

Having said that, before Yan could react, he and Hannibal transformed into two streaks of light, quickly disappearing into the thick night.

Yan chased after her to the door, the evening breeze ruffling her golden hair, but bringing only a vast silence.
