We moved to Golden Courtyard

"Oh?"

Xu Qi looked at Eleanor with curiosity.

He was just saying it as a polite gesture to make himself seem less vulnerable, but he never expected that fate would actually prepare an apology gift for him...

That piqued his curiosity.

Xu Qi leisurely picked up a glass of red wine, and thinking that the legendary destiny had actually bowed down, he was already preparing to enjoy the pleasant time that was about to begin.

"I heard that Mr. Xu Qi is not yet married."

"puff!……"

Xu Qi spat out the red wine he had just drunk.

After Eleanor finished speaking, perhaps only she herself could remain expressionless. Even Karen, who was sitting next to her, couldn't help but blush and lower her head.

Eleanor even calmly handed him a restaurant paper.

Doesn't she feel embarrassed?

"Perfect timing. Miss Karen has never had any romantic experience either, so I thought I could introduce her to you. Besides, you two don't seem to mind each other, do you?"

This guy definitely knows that Karen took him out to look for someone that night.

Moreover, I had given some hints beforehand.

But I never expected her to actually do it!

"Commander Eleanor, um... I actually have a girlfriend."

"I know, but you're still unmarried, aren't you?"

That's something... there's really no way to refute it.

Even though both Mei and Alicia are pregnant, Xu Qi hasn't actually registered his marriage with any girl yet. He wants to wait until Mei turns 20.

"So I'd like to introduce you to Karen, as a way of apologizing for what happened before. What do you say, Mr. Xu Qi?"

Xu Qi glanced at Eleanor subconsciously.

He saw the mockery in her eyes—this damn woman must be doing this on purpose!

If you really want to find me a woman, can I have you?

Seeing Xu Qi's fierce gaze, this former Kuomintang agent actually put on a shy expression and said...

"If Mr. Xu Qi needs it..."

"No! No need... Can I treat this lunch as a blind date with Miss Karen?"

"A blind date? Ah~~ I see, a date, is that right?"

Eleanor smiled.

"Of course, no problem. Then I won't bother you two any longer."

As she spoke, Eleanor stood up, gave Karen a look before leaving, and said gently, "Kalen, you'd better take this date seriously."

……

Only after confirming that the woman had really left did Xu Qi finally breathe a sigh of relief and smile bitterly.

"Miss Karen, I really didn't expect this..."

"No...it's alright, Mr. Xu Qi. I heard about it too. That night, Commander Eleanor broke down your and Miss Qi's door and saw you..."

This has really caused Mr. Xu Qi a lot of trouble! I'm very sorry!

The little girl solemnly walked out of the dining table and bowed to Xu Qi.

She wasn't wearing her pure white Destiny uniform today; instead, she came to meet us in her own clothes.

He wore a white undershirt with a black vest over it, which made him look very handsome.

And this bending over... he has a good figure, at least he's definitely upright.

but……

Xu Qi smiled.

"But Miss Karen would definitely not accept a man like me."

Karen trembled.

She looked up in slight surprise, seemingly not expecting Xu Qi to say such a thing.

Perhaps moved by the sincerity in Xu Qi's eyes, Karen hesitated for a moment, then straightened up and nodded, saying, "Yes, Mr. Xu Qi, you are very outstanding, but..."

Regarding your emotional situation, I'm truly unable to accept it. May I ask how you found out?

Xu Qi shrugged.

"Because I'm a cheating bastard."

So you do have some self-awareness...

Karen returned to her seat with a wry smile.

"Commander Eleanor investigated your background and found out that Mr. Xu Qi had many girlfriends in China, and after arriving in Europe, he got together with that Miss Qi Qi again within a few days."

Your skills in love are truly remarkable; those nobles of the Heavenly Mandate are no match for you.

Xu Qi smiled and said, "I think I can detect a hint of sarcasm in your voice."

The little girl stuck out her tongue, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

"Just as you can see, I'm a playboy, and I can't go anywhere without women by my side. Miss Karen certainly doesn't want her future man to be like me."

"Yes, Mr. Xu Qi."

Now that things have been discussed openly, Karen no longer needs to hide anything.

Moreover, she felt that talking to Mr. Xu Qi was very easy and pleasant, and she could speak her mind freely without any worries.

Even though he was a jerk, Karen couldn't help but want to be friends with him.

Is this what true friendship between gentlemen is all about?

"I hope my future partner will be faithful to me, and of course I will be faithful to my partner as well. So I'm sorry, I would never consider a man like you."

"It's alright. After all, I didn't expect Commander Eleanor's gift to be like this... But even so, it doesn't stop us from being friends, does it?"

"Of course! I really like Mr. Xu Qi!"

That's why Europeans are said to be open-minded; they can say "like" so easily. Of course, Xu Qi knew that Karen didn't mean it that way.

It's a pure and simple liking.

Xu Qi raised his glass and extended it to Karen.

"So, for the sake of our friendship, Cheers?"

"Cheers!"

The glasses clinked gently, producing a pleasant sound.

Both of them tilted their heads back and downed the red wine in their glasses in one gulp—were they drinking beer?

However, Xu Qi also noticed something else, such as the scars on the girl's wrists...

It must have been left in the big white goose that night; the cause of this wound was myself.

"Miss Karen seems to be injured? Is she alright?"

"Ah, it's alright. I was injured by accident during a mission the night before last..." Karen's expression turned unusually serious as she said this.

"The other side is very strong and may make some moves soon. Mr. Xu Qi, you must be careful in the city!"

I suddenly felt a little guilty.

"But Commander Eleanor doesn't trust you at all. She made me tell her about my date with you today. Honestly, does Mr. Xu Qi have the ability to be in two places at once?"

Xu Qi smiled on the surface, but in reality, he was sweating profusely!

He suddenly realized that introducing Karen to him was also a test.

How could a playboy from a gold conglomerate possibly refuse such a beautiful apology gift?

What a damn Kuomintang agent...

Chapter 1127, Chapter 1120: Because I am your sun.

The lunch with Karen ended in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.

Afterwards, he invited the other party to take him to some fun attractions in Waraheim, which was also a way of showing that Xu Qi was making an effort.

However, when we were returning to the hotel, I happened to run into the cat.

Pado didn't say anything, pursed her lips, and went upstairs looking slightly dejected.

"Um... Mr. Xu Qi, I should..."

"Ah, it's alright, Karen. You can go back now. I had a pretty good day. When you get back, please tell Commander Eleanor that our grudges are now settled."

"Okay! I'll definitely pass on the message!"

After watching Xu Qi leave, Karen finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She pulled a portable earphone from her pocket and immediately heard Eleanor's voice as soon as she put it on.

"The mission was completed well, you can return to the team now."

"Sir, this feeling is not good at all. I don't understand why you are so insistent on doubting Mr. Xu Qi, but I really think it's a waste of time."

"I know that for you, improving your strength and shooting down that blue-and-white armored vehicle the next time you encounter it is the most important thing, right?"

"Yes, Commander Eleanor!"

Typical orthodox military ideology.

However, Eleanor did not find this foolish.

In fact, she quite admired soldiers like Karen, who were always upright and honorable, and who enjoyed the feeling of winning on the front lines.

However, Eleanor, who came from the Military Intelligence Bureau, undoubtedly had a completely different set of ideals from Karen's.

The pilot of that blue and white aircraft must be Mafti, and he must have already landed on the island!

If we can find the other party inside Vanaheim and deal with them in advance.

Elinor's guiding principle has always been to win battles without bloodshed.

"Come back first. Mr. Xu Qi, whom you like, hasn't shown any suspicious signs yet. I'll also arrange for Harman to drive the Qubeley so you can practice more."

Adapting to the floating cannons is key to defeating that blue and white machine.

"Yes, Commander Eleanor!"

Inside the office, Eleanor was replaying the video of her interactions with Xu Qi that day.

No problem at all...

No matter how you look at it, he is a somewhat dissolute young master from the Golden Group who is obsessed with women.

Could this kind of person be Mafti?

For the first time, Eleanor began to doubt her own judgment and intuition.

"Pado! Pado!"

They chased the cat all the way back to the hotel, where the cat unusually ignored her boss.

Xu Qi smiled wryly and quickly stepped forward, grabbing the other person's wrist.

"Pado!"

"Boss, you won't even call me 'Kitty'..."

How can someone still be in the mood for memes?

But at least it shows that his kitten wasn't really angry.

"Cat, you should know that my relationship with that Karen was just a fling. She is the one destined for us."

"I know, but how does Miss Kiki explain that?"

Well, there's really no way to explain this.
