How Am I Still Alive?
Chapter 1622 Small Gift
Lu Ping'an's return is a signal.
When it returns to Earth, many things begin to work at its core.
Or to put it another way, he is just one of the many sentient beings who returned to the planet specifically for this time to prepare to participate in this feast.
"The time is almost as we expected. After two and a half to three years of strategic defensive period, it is finally the strategic counter-offensive period."
The hard times seem to pass by in a flash, but there are always people who bear the burden and move forward in the suffering.
Lu Pingan seemed to have used the magic method of jumping time, skipping the dull and torturous defensive period and directly reaching the destined counterattack turning point.
Most of the time, he came from various star regions for his own benefit and was busy going back and forth between various forces, but he was also preparing for the counterattack and liquidation of the war.
However, he still values and respects the defenders who stay in the country and are destined to see no future or end.
"Thank you, charming city defender."
Lu Pingan gently clinked his glasses and smiled at the long-legged beauty in a blue evening dress.
Xia Qin is much more mature than she was back then. Now in the dinner venue, with long hair, she is already a beautiful woman with a charming smile and smooth skin.
"Thank you for your hard work, Gu Cheng. No, the biggest arms dealer and war broker in the entire Eastern Kingdom."
The wine glasses touched lightly, making waves. The two people looked at each other, but they covered each other's mouths and chuckled.
This is a charity dinner held by a development company under the ancient city city hall. To be precise, it is a Hongmen Banquet led by the government, allowing companies to contribute some money to support the country, war losses, orphans and other public expenditures.
But in fact, due to the relatively harmonious relationship between the various forces in the ancient city, the city's public security has always been above the standard, and various forces are actually willing to contribute some money.
Taking this opportunity, Lu Ping'an directly donated the more than 400 war machines he had agreed to do. He asked to donate anonymously. At this point, he didn't need much fame. The lower profile the better.
As a bearer of public responsibility and the beneficiary of this huge donation, Xia Qin naturally participated in the banquet.
However, compared to back then, she was much more skilled and mature.
Now the two are discussing with each other in the corner of the banquet. They are too young but important, but few people dare to disturb them without knowing each other.
"Tsk boss, stop talking about love here. Whatever you want, please go home. There are two big bosses who want to see you."
But Catherine, who suddenly walked out, was a bit disgraceful.
"Ignorant."
"Okay, I'll tell that to the eighth-level phosphorus-spreading elder. They're here to talk about the sail engine, and it seems they are finally willing to sell their technology."
".Hold on."
Lu Pingan sighed, put down the empty cup, and prepared to go over.
Suddenly, Xia Qin came over, stretched out her hands, and helped straighten her collar and tie.
"Thank you for your hard work. Let me comfort you later?"
"good."
Lu Ping'an smiled happily. Although the two parties had established a certain relationship, it was rare to be together for two consecutive days.
The main reason is not that Lu Ping'an is too busy, he is used to taking time out of his busy schedule, but that Sister Xia Qin is too career-minded and often works overtime after being satisfied with short gatherings.
She seemed to feel that being together was a waste of time, so just meeting him every once in a while would be enough. In a sense, this manly woman really had not changed at all, but her way of life and appearance had become smoother and more mature.
Yes, Lu Pingan and Xia Qin are lovers, and they have been for almost two years.
It was natural for them to come together. In the previous life, Lu Ping'an was a carnivore, and some things would not change after eating meat. But this time, it was just that he was immature, and his life was in an unstable state, so he became temporarily conservative. That’s all.
After he reaches the eighth level and his status is stable, and his life points are sufficient to at least extend his life span for a hundred years, he will take the initiative to consider his physiological needs in this regard even if his parents do not urge him to get married.
"Hmph, you stinky man." The little woman, whose face was made red by Lu Ping'an's happy smile, also pretended to glare at him, and was a little happy that he was obsessed with her.
After all, if Lu Pingan wants a woman now, he really has everything. As long as he opens his mouth, many who are younger and more beautiful than him will follow him.
Looking at Mr. Lu who walked over with a smile and quietly discussed important matters with the two elders, Xia Qin played with the wine glass, feeling a little happy and a little confused.
She couldn't help but think of the confession two years ago or the oolong incident called the confession.
In fact, the relationship between the two has always been ambiguous, and Xia Qin also knew that Lu was not as honest as he appeared. It was natural that something should happen.
In a bar on a rainy night, a woman pretending to be drunk entangled herself with a man who always pretended to be innocent. She complained, "I'm over thirty and I haven't been in love yet." s answer.
"Then, think about me." Then, the man was pounced on by the "drunk" woman and taken away.
Then, of course, something happened.
The reason why it was said to be an own incident was because the big cat, who was quicker to strike, had been squatting aside and staring, eating melon seeds and squeezing walnuts, watching the pair reenacting and secretly videotaping it. The next day, all parties involved With a tacit understanding, everyone went about their own business, as if nothing had happened, but a certain cat was watching a video in the living room and waiting for the two of them to come downstairs.
Well, back to the topic, Xia Qin’s career is the most important thing, and her life has always been about practice and work. Lu Ping’an, who gives herself to herself, is not so honest outside of work.
However, in this life, he was more attentive and pursued feelings instead of carnal desires. Although he still had fun, he did not let those messy things enter his life, let alone his heart.
"Pop."
Patting her cheek gently, the woman regained her senses. Why was she always being led away by this bad man who pretended to be honest?
In a sense, Lu Ping'an is really the one who is being eaten. It's just those who really understand both sides know that Lu Ping'an has always been a wolf pretending to be harmless.
"By the way, I want to take this opportunity to talk to the government department about the update of equipment and the purchase and maintenance of surveillance cameras." She quickly turned her attention to business again, maybe she would have to get used to it again. Late for the appointment.
Suddenly, she saw her man saying sorry to the big bosses and walking over in a hurry.
"how?"
"I almost forgot to give you a little gift."
As he spoke, the man leaned down and put a bronze headband with a dagger pattern on the woman's neck.
"This time I met a regular-level man who calls himself the evil god. His strength is average, but his bones are ground into sword-bone protective gear, which is quite useful."
"Can't you give me something romantic?"
The woman glared angrily again. This bone ring was just put on her head. Now it was a dinner party.
Romantic? Lu Ping'an opened his mouth, not knowing how to respond. He really didn't expect that these words would actually come from Captain Xia's mouth.
"Snapped."
But with a snap of the fingers, the bronze bone ring turned into a colorful garland, with roses inlaid in all directions, making the woman's appearance more vivid.
At the same time, little bits of color are extended from the ends of the hair, making the hair color colorful.
There are also more patterns on the clothes, and there are rose decorations on the shoulders and chest carvings, as if the whole person has transformed into a flower elf.
The woman smelled the fragrance of the flowers, felt the surprised or envious eyes of everyone around her, sniffed the roses, and laughed.
Lu Ping'an also laughed. Fortunately, we have practiced it. This "garland enchantment" is really a wonderful skill.
"How did you learn this skill? You look very skilled, do you use it often?" The woman's smile suddenly changed. It was too bright and looked a bit dangerous.
"Uh, guess." Lu Ping'an wouldn't lie.
"I guess you're a big-headed idiot!" Xia Qin, who fully understood someone's tricks, became furious on the spot and struck directly.
So, Lu Ping'an limped and went to discuss business with the bosses.
Well, the last chapter actually hinted that this is just a matter of course, it is the path of carnivory. When someone becomes an adult and becomes independent, he starts to eat grass on the side of the nest. Why did he switch to the finished book?
Well, time is accelerating because we can’t win now, we have to fight two years later
Well, the last book started with 800 orders for hell, and we also wrote 2.5 million to complete all the outlines. This is a good result in itself, and we will finish all the contents as expected.
Well, this book already has 3.95 million words, and it has indeed entered the second half, but there are at least two large volumes left. It is only the eighth level now, at least after reaching the tenth level and finishing everything.
