Nan Hua blinked her eyes.

Hearing Long Qian Xing’s words, she seemed to know why he suddenly said that.

However, she was not worried nor think that it was strange. As a soldier, it was extremely normal for Long Qian Xing to be sent for missions. He has been taking a long break to stay in the academy, it was already the time for him to leave again.

This time, he might be away for quite some time.

"I see. You should take care and be careful, Brother Long."

Long Qian Xing smiled helplessly at the polite words from Nan Hua. Even if the content sounded as if she cared for him, but the tone was more polite than anything. He felt a bit helpless, but he could only restrain himself.

Anyway, it was quite good for now.

"Don’t forget to train hard. When I come back, I’ll take a look at your progress."

Take a look at her progress?

Nan Hua didn’t really care about that matter. Even if she was not training again, she knew very well that her own strength that she showed on the surface will definitely increase again.

This was the only way for her to show more of her existence and able to enter the military academy.

If she was still the same weaklings as before, her missions would stagnate.

She had to do things slowly and make changes imperceptibly.

Getting stronger was just one of them and also the beginning of what she had to do. Later on, there would be more things.

"I know, Brother Long."

"Good." Long Qian Xing smiled. He turned his head to look at the sky again just in time as the sky changed color to darker. "Look over here."

"Hmm?"

Nan Hua raised her head and then watched as something came in the horizon, running across the sky with the taillight following behind that thing.

Her dark obsidian pupil followed the movement of the meteor in front of her just as another one appeared followed by many others.

Meteor showers.

In the real world, this was naturally a very rare phenomenon.

"It’s said that if you make a wish to a meteor, it would come true. If it’s a meteor shower, shouldn’t the effect be amplified?" Long Qian Xing joked in a light tone.

Nan Hua only showed a faint smile on her face but didn’t give a comment.

If the meteor could grant people’s wish, then she would also say her wish. But Nan Hua knew very well how fake it was.

No matter how much one wishes for something, if they didn’t work hard for it, they would not be able to achieve it.

What was the point of wishing to the meteor?

It was nothing more than a rock that fell because gravity called.

But it was a small tradition that was being used by a lot of people. Even if they knew that it was not true, they were still willing to utter their wish in front of the meteor for the slight hope in their heart.

Watching the meteor shower in front of her, Nan Hua didn’t say anything.

She had no hope for the so called luck.

What she could do was to work hard and achieve what she wanted. Because she knew that if she did nothing, nothing would come to her. There wouldn’t be a sudden windfall for her just because she wanted it.

She had to work hard for what she wanted.

Because she knew very well that this is her last chance.

...

Bang!

From the door behind them, Long Shi Yu finally couldn’t stand Tian Lou and Tian Lin’s antics anymore. The two brothers truly couldn’t be allowed to gather together or there would be nothing but chaos.

Thankfully, he had finished eating and enjoyed the dishes.

It didn’t make him full but satisfied his tongue that was greedy for the taste. In normal times, there was no way he could come to an expensive restaurant like this. His wallet would be bleeding heavily if he dared to come.

"Finally quiet."

Long Shi Yu was relieved that the sound insulation from the rooms were very good. If he had to listen to their chattering again, he really wanted to smash the table on top of these two’s head.

That way, the world would be quiet.

’Now, where should I go?’

Long Shi Yu’s brain was turning as he walked the corridor and stopped when he saw the balcony at the end of one branch of the corridor. The restaurant itself was big with several intersection and from this intersection, he could see a corridor heading to the balcony.

The balcony itself was normal, but what attracted his attention was the two people who were standing side by side, looking at the sky full of meteor showers in front of them.

This phenomenon was quite common.

As long as they have enough money, they could pay to ask for some show in the Virtual World. It was just very expensive for ordinary people to ask, so they could only wait for the rich people to smash their money.

Anyway, there would definitely be one every few days.

Sometimes even everyday was possible.

Long Shi Yu looked at the image in front of him and for some reasons, he felt that the two of them looked really good.

While he knew that Long Qian Xing has good feelings for Nan Hua and also some intention, this was the first time he saw the two of them looked so harmonious like this. The young man’s back was taut and tall while the young woman looked soft.

His mind faintly recalled Nan Hua’s coquettish tone back in the competition and his expression turned strange.

’Perhaps, there’s truly something called natural pair.’

He shook his head and looked at the two of them one more time before walking to the distance. He had no interest to destroy their two people’s words. It would be better to leave them be and just find some free space to rest.
