Capítulo 1597: Chapter 522: Not Entirely Impossible
Late at night.
On a deserted street, Su Ming walked towards the noodle shop.
When he arrived at the shop, he saw Irelia already sitting on one of the stools.
She was wearing a purple lace dress, her long hair draping over her shoulders, a Star’s Tear necklace around her neck, exuding elegance in every movent.
“Granny Cai, two bowls of beef noodle soup.”
Su Ming sat down next to Irelia and said with a smile to the busy Granny Cai.
“Alright.”
Granny Cai responded kindly.
At this mont, Su Ming turned his head and smiled at Irelia.
“Senior, long ti no see.”
“Well, what can you do, junior Su Ming is so busy, once you disappear, it’s for quite a while.”
Irelia said to Su Ming with a aningful tone.
Su Ming was taken aback by Irelia’s words, yet she should know very well what he’s been up to lately. Why turn the tables now?
But Su Ming quickly realized she was blaming him for not being in touch more, so he replied with a smile.
“Senior, it wasn’t my intention! It’s just that my superior treats like I’m expendable, I can’t refuse, so I have to run around.”
“You follow your superior’s orders so well, why not go live with your superior?”
Irelia glanced at Su Ming and replied with a smile.
“Cough, cough, that’s work, look, I’m free now and imdiately ca to find you.”
Su Ming hurried to clarify.
“Really? How co today I saw junior Su Ming having a leisure ti, happily strolling with three girls on the street?”
Irelia replied calmly.
“Eh, are you jealous?”
Su Ming was startled first, then asked with a laugh.
“Not at all, we don’t have any relation, why would I care?”
Irelia smiled at Su Ming as she spoke.
“Don’t say that, Senior.”
Su Ming returned with a look of embarrassnt.
At this mont, Granny Cai placed two bowls of beef noodle soup in front of them, kindly speaking.
“Are you fighting?”
“No, just explaining.”
Su Ming quickly replied.
“That’s right, if you can explain it verbally, definitely don’t hold back.”
Granny Cai said with a smile to Su Ming.
“Mm.”
Su Ming promptly replied.
“Then enjoy your al, if it’s not enough, I’ll add more noodles for you.”
Granny Cai turned to tidy up the kitchenware.
Su Ming and Irelia quietly ate their beef noodle soup, after a while, Irelia spoke.
“Junior Su Ming, you called out late at night, it’s not just for noodles, right?”
“Mm, I plan to take a trip to the Bright Star Sea.”
Su Ming thought for a bit and told Irelia.
“You just got back, why so soon leaving again? Aren’t you going to rest a bit?”
Irelia looked at Su Ming with so confusion.
“My troops are in the Bright Star Sea; they’re under attack from the chanical Clan, and evacuation isn’t going well. The Federation Governnt doesn’t have enough personnel, so I plan on heading over.”
Su Ming explained to Irelia.
“When will you leave?”
Irelia asked after a few seconds of silence.
“Depends on the situation. If a ship is available tomorrow, I’ll leave.”
Su Ming said to Irelia.
“Why the rush?”
“If I don’t go now, I’ll miss the chance!”
“How will you miss the chance?”
Irelia looked at Su Ming with so confusion.
“My mom is constantly pushing to get married and have kids. If I don’t leave now, it’s over. Senior, could you help out?”
Su Ming said with a joke to Irelia.
Irelia looked at Su Ming and chuckled softly.
“It’s my first ti seeing soone confess by starting with making babies.”
“Cough, cough, just joking.”
Su Ming awkwardly replied.
“That joke wasn’t funny at all.”
Irelia replied calmly and continued eating her noodles.
“Alright.”
Su Ming saw this and lowered his head to eat his noodles too.
After finishing the noodles, they got up and left the shop, heading towards the nearby bus stop.
Their journey was silent.
Su Ming quietly accompanied Irelia to the bus stop.
“This is far enough.”
Irelia said to Su Ming.
“Mm.”
Su Ming stopped walking and nodded slightly.
Irelia headed towards the bus stop but stopped after a few steps, turning back with a smile to Su Ming.
“Not impossible, but you’ll have to start from being my girlfriend.”
“Really?”
Su Ming’s heart skipped a beat and he looked at Irelia with joy.
“Mm.”
Irelia replied with a bright smile.
Just then, the public hover bus ca from afar, and a gentle breeze ruffled Irelia’s hair.
Su Ming bid farewell.
“The bus is here, get on.”
“Mm, stay safe, and return safely.”
Irelia tucked her hair behind her ear, giving her advice to Su Ming.
“Alright, when I get back, perhaps you can accompany for a walk?”
Su Ming smiled as he replied to Irelia.
“Alright.”
Irelia said with a smile, then turned and boarded the hover bus.
Su Ming stood in place, watching the bus fade into the distance.
……
Early the next morning.
Su Ming rose early, changed his clothes, and sent a request via his wristband to the Military Departnt for a ship to the Bright Star Sea.
After completing this, Su Ming went to the bathroom to wash up.
As he ca out of the bathroom, his wristband vibrated with a ssage popping up.
“Respected Admiral Su Ming, your request has been approved. Please arrive at the interstellar airport before 7 PM tonight to board the Level 5 Battleship·Harmony. Vice Admiral Alifei will supervise your journey….”
