Chapter 835: Chapter 828: Changing Perspectives
"At least he has a conscience," after a pause, Feliz continued to ask, "So he..."
"Are you going to write him a letter? He seems to be still on standby in Holy Heart City, Ziang and Moumou are also at the academy. If you want to write a letter, you can have it delivered to them through a messenger and they will pass it on to your brother," Luo’er interrupted her.
"What do I have to say to him?" Feliz pouted, contradicting her own words.
"Feliz, being tsundere will only backfire on you in the end, if you want to talk to him, just do it quickly. Once you go to Earth, and he gets dispatched somewhere else, you might not get the chance to communicate for years," Luo’er said, smiling as if he saw right through her.
"Do you understand me that well?" Feliz glared at him, unsatisfied.
"Of course, I won’t claim to understand you exceptionally well, but I generally know what you’re thinking," Luo’er said, spreading his hands.
Upon hearing Luo’er’s words, Feliz didn’t show a disgusted expression but lowered her head, revealing a shy one. After a while, she collected her emotions, took a deep breath, and asserted, "What I write can only be seen by you, no one else is allowed to see it."
"Got it, I’ll deliver it for you," Luo’er said, chuckling and shaking his head.
"Then I’m off to write the letter, what a hassle..." said Feliz, turning her head and hopping away cheerfully.
Watching Feliz bounce away joyfully, Luo’er let out a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to go bother Wang Xu, the voice of Fulajie’er, full of jealousy, echoed in his mind: "Luo’er, who is she??"
"She’s Feliz, haven’t I told you about her before?" Luo’er responded matter-of-factly as he walked.
"Why do so many girls know you!" Fulajie’er asked, feeling wronged.
"How should I answer that question," Luo’er said, scratching his head awkwardly, "I mean, I don’t want it this way, but so many girls just approach me on their own."
"And then you just accept them all?" Fulajie’er asked.
"I haven’t, why would you think that?" Luo’er protested, feeling wronged.
"Luo’er!!!!!!!!" Fulajie’er said sternly, "I’m going to find my sister now. You hurry up and give her the pendant, right away!"
"Didn’t you say earlier that giving the pendant to your sister required your approval?" Luo’er asked.
"I’ve agreed now, hurry up, do it now!" Fulajie’er demanded, sounding almost frantic.
"Alright, I understand. Come find me after you’ve calmed down," Luo’er sighed and with a shake of his head, he turned and walked towards the direction of the library.
After sending off the sulky Fulajie’er, Luo’er continued towards Wang Xu’s office with a sense of resignation. These entanglements between men and women were giving him a headache, seeming even harder to handle than strategizing.
Arriving at Wang Xu’s office, Luo’er knocked on the door out of habit and soon, Wang Xu’s voice came from inside: "Come in."
Luo’er pushed the door open to see Wang Xu sitting at his desk. Upon seeing him, Wang Xu couldn’t help but reveal a wry smile and shook his head, "You could’ve just come in directly, why be so polite?"
"Just in case you were doing something weird and I walked in on it," Luo’er shrugged, nonchalant.
"What kind of person do you take me for," Wang Xu sighed, stood up, walked over to Luo’er, and gave his arm a caring squeeze, then continued, "What brings you here?"
"Isn’t that a stupid question? I came for my report," Luo’er rolled his eyes. It was only in Wang Xu’s company that Luo’er would reveal his true feelings.
"Alright, treat it as if I said something stupid. Tell me what you’ve achieved," Wang Xu turned around, sat on the edge of the desk, and crossed his arms, asking with interest. He actually didn’t mind Luo’er’s attitude; on the contrary, he liked how genuine Luo’er was with him, it made him feel that their decades of friendship had not faded.
"You guys really need to take good care of Eve and her brother, don’t let the people from the intelligence bureau exploit any loopholes again," Luo’er said seriously.
"We are well aware of that. The area is now surrounded by guards; you don’t have to worry about their safety," Wang Xu spread his hands as he spoke.
"That’s exactly why I’m worried," Luo’er frowned and said, "Don’t forget, Fu’en was held in the heavily guarded Haiya and was still killed by the intelligence bureau’s people."
"This time it’s different, we’ve done the best we can at this stage. If the CIA can still infiltrate us, then it can only mean we are far behind them in counter-infiltration," Wang Xu said, shrugging his shoulders.
"Besides, to come back to the point," Wang Xu didn’t wait for Luo’er to speak but continued, "once your Advance Team is fully assembled, you might be directly assigned to search for the Ancient Scripture. You won’t be staying at the base for long."
"How’s the situation in Holy Heart City now?" Luo’er slightly relaxed his brow, and then continued to ask.
"It’s not very clear at the moment, but it seems the Booze Ghost Gang still has the upper hand. I guess it won’t be long before the CIA can completely infiltrate the entire Holy Heart City," Wang Xu said, shrugging his shoulders.
"Don’t care anymore?" Luo’er asked.
"Why bother with it? Opening the door is our primary goal now, everything else is secondary. If we try to get everything, we might end up with nothing," Wang Xu said.
"Why do I feel like you’re implying something sinister?" Luo’er narrowed his eyes and asked him.
"Do nothing wrong, and you won’t be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door." Wang Xu burst into laughter when he heard Luo’er’s words, replying with a grin.
"I’m a Materialist; I don’t believe in ghosts and gods!" Luo’er answered expressionlessly.
"Ah, whatever you say. I’m not implying anything, just making conversation," Wang Xu said with a spread of his hands, pretending not to understand anything.
"Azita, that guy, I’ll settle accounts with him one day," Luo’er said coldly.
"Don’t worry, I’ll keep tabs on your behalf. As long as he’s alive, that debt has to be settled," Wang Xu said, comforting him.
Luo’er nodded slightly, then lowered his head and fell into a brief silence. After a while, he spoke again, "How is my grandfather?"
"Old Chief, eh? He has retired now and is enjoying his family happiness," Wang Xu replied.
As soon as Luo Qishan was mentioned, Luo’er couldn’t help but think of Luoya and involuntarily frowned, asking, "What exactly are you planning to do with Luoya?"
"Ah, we haven’t touched Luoya. With the Old Chief around, who would dare?" Wang Xu said with some surprise.
"I’ve heard it all from Feliz. Don’t tell me you don’t know about these things," Luo’er said, staring at Wang Xu.
"Oh, you’re talking about that. You don’t need to worry. We won’t hurt Luoya. We just want her to help us with some propaganda," Wang Xu said, reassuring him.
"Propaganda?" Luo’er asked, his brow furrowing.
"Right, you must have heard about the Elf Planet Project," Wang Xu replied.
"You guys are still thinking about that cursed project?" Luo’er said, taken aback.
"What you say... As a half-elf, naturally you don’t understand the struggles of outright humans. There are plenty on Earth who want to become half-elves," Wang Xu replied.
"So what do you want Luoya to do? You don’t intend to let her..." Luo’er asked with a puzzled face.
"Don’t jump to conclusions. We wouldn’t do that, nor would we dare. We just want Luoya to be a spokesperson, take a few pictures for propaganda—that’s all," Wang Xu explained.
"Propaganda for what?" Luo’er asked.
"Now that the technical barriers of the Elf Planet Project have been overcome, the only problem left for implementing this plan is traditional thinking. Whether Earthlings are willing to become half-elves is still up for discussion. Although previous polls showed 80% of people hoped their descendants would become half-elves, those were only random samples. We hope to use a bit of propaganda to get more Earthlings to accept half-elves, so the Elf Planet Project can be better implemented," Wang Xu explained earnestly.
"So you want Luoya to become an ambassador?" Luo’er asked, blinking in slight disbelief.
"Of course, Luoya’s image fits perfectly with what Earthlings imagine half-elves to be, doesn’t it?" Wang Xu replied, shrugging his shoulders.
