Chapter 8 From Dusk to Night
In the evening, dusk is approaching and the sky is setting.
The Chabaoti Archipelago looks like a dream against the backdrop of rainbow bubbles. The light of the setting sun shines through the dense branches and leaves of the Alchiman mangroves, falls on the grass and the stone road, and reflects romantic light traces through the rising water vapor. The resulting Tyndall effect makes the entire archipelago intoxicated.
Navy Family Reception Center.
"Mr. Lex, Lieutenant Colonel Gion has returned to the branch. Do you want to go over now, or wait for Lieutenant Colonel Gion to come and see you later?"
Luo Xi put down the Den Den Mushi in his hand and asked with a smile on his face.
She was looking forward to Lex's answer, because it would become the topic of gossip between her and the other navy sisters tonight. Did Lex love Lieutenant Colonel Zhiyuan more, or was Lieutenant Colonel Zhiyuan more obsessed with Mr. Lex?
Lex couldn't help but laugh when he heard Roxie's words and thoughts.
Is it true that gossip is women’s nature no matter which world we are in?
In fact, Lex also likes to gossip, such as the love-hate relationship between Whitebeard and Miss Bakin. However, ever since Lex was knocked away by Whitebeard's air shock last time, he has never asked Whitebeard this question on his own initiative again.
However, he still keeps an eye on Stussy's movements on Happy Street. Hey, is that clone his godmother?
Lex stood up, picked up his two knives on the sofa, put on his suit jacket, and walked out the door. His observation Haki told him that Zhiyuan was in her office.
"Mr. Lex, Lieutenant Colonel Zhiyuan should be in her private office now. Do you need me to show you the way?"
Luo Xi came to his senses behind him and shouted quickly.
"Thank you, Ms. Roche, but I already know how to get there."
Lex didn't look back, waved, and continued walking forward.
Looking at Lex's tall back and his long golden hair swaying in the wind, Luo Xi looked at him with an infatuated look on her face. Although she couldn't take part in the action herself, chatting about gossip was also very fulfilling.
Lex walked to a deserted corner.
Space Teleportation.
The next moment, outside of Gion's private office, Lex pushed the door open and walked in.
"Don't you know how to knock on the door?"
Gion said without even looking up as he continued to complete today's patrol log.
Lex moved a chair and sat on the left side of Zhiyuan as if he was back home. His right arm naturally lifted Zhiyuan's cloak of justice, wrapped around Zhiyuan's waist, and pressed his head against Zhiyuan's long hair from behind. He breathed gently and obsessively inhaled the unique fragrance of Zhiyuan's body. Are all girls so fragrant?
"Stop it, I haven't finished writing yet."
Zhiyuan twisted her shoulders, as if trying to shake off this clingy guy, but Lex's movements affected her writing.
"Please be considerate of me. I came all the way from the West Sea to the New World, visited the Sleeping Ancient Town, and went on a trip to the Moby Dick, and then I crossed the Red Earth Continent to come to Shampooland to see you, honey. Come on, give me a kiss."
Lex seemed to have no regard for his face in front of Zhiyuan at all, and put his mouth close to Zhiyuan's face. You know, Lex is two years older than Zhiyuan.
"Oh, that's annoying, go away."
Zhiyuan refused without even looking up.
"Eh? Are you still my wife? I remember you cried and said you would never be separated from me when we were 17. How come it's like this after just one year in the navy?" Lex grinned.
"Shut up, Lex."
Zhiyuan's face turned red and she even paused while writing.
Just last year, Lex asked Zhiyuan to join the navy, but Zhiyuan refused to leave Lex no matter what. Three years of living and training together, his meticulous company after the death of his father, the inadvertent little surprises in life, and his gentle consolation when he was sad, have made the name Lex firmly engraved in Zhiyuan's life.
So when Lex decided to let Zhiyuan join the navy, reshape the fate of the world, and plan his own ten-year plan.
Zhiyuan cried for the entire afternoon, and no matter what he did, he wouldn't cry. His eyes were usually bloodshot and red, which was completely different from his usual cold and arrogant personality. This also became Lex's biggest asset for teasing Zhiyuan later.
"Then give me a kiss, and I'll shut up and wait quietly for you to finish writing."
Lex continued shamelessly, in front of Gion, Lex didn't know how to write the word "face".
Hearing this, Zhiyuan had no choice but to move his cheek quickly to the left, touch Lex's lips like a dragonfly touching the water, and then quickly move it back.
"Ah? That's it. I haven't even felt it yet. Let's do it again."
The hand that Lex had placed on Zhiyuan's waist restlessly pinched the flesh on Zhiyuan's lower abdomen.
"Huh? That's enough. Get out of here. Why didn't I notice you were so shameless before?"
Zhiyuan made an angry sound, but did not struggle to break free from Lex's arms, and even leaned back slightly on Lex's arm.
"Okay, okay, I won't make a fuss anymore. Finish writing these quickly, and then come with me to Shampoo Land for a stroll."
After that, Lex waited quietly for Zhiyuan to finish the diary, but his right hand still pinched Zhiyuan's waist from time to time.
"Huh~Finally done, take your pig's trotter away."
Gion stood up and opened Lex's arms.
"Then go change your clothes quickly, wife."
"Does it look good in a skirt?"
Gion asked Lex as he walked towards the changing room in the office.
"My wife looks good in anything she wears."
"Hmph, perfunctory."
"........"
Lex was used to it. After four years, Lex broke through the emperor-level combat power, comprehended the domineering color entanglement, and awakened the fruit, but he still did not find the standard answer to this question.
In Gion's words, if you just say it looks good, it seems too perfunctory; if you say it doesn't look good, it means there is no love; if you ask why it looks good, it seems too deliberate; if you ask why it doesn't look good, it means you want a divorce.
As Lex watched the locker room curtain being drawn, his mouth twitched slightly.
After waiting for about half an hour, the sun had completely set and night fell quietly.
Swish!
The curtain was drawn open, revealing the breathtaking beauty of Gion under the light.
She changed into a light pink one-shoulder high-slit dress, put on light makeup, and wore pure white pointed high heels. The skirt had a hollow waist and was tight at the hips, revealing Zhiyuan's almost perfect figure.
The only thing that is not perfect is that her breasts are beyond the size and are about to burst out. She is worthy of being the leader of the fourth faction of the future navy - the European faction. She is young but has a huge breast.
Lex looked intently at the Gion in front of him; the half-hour wait was not in vain.
"How about we not go out for a walk? You look tired after working all day. Let's just go back to bed."
Lex said with a sly smile, but it was not vulgar.
"Stop talking nonsense and accompany me to Island 36. I haven't been to an amusement park in a long time."
The 18-year-old Gion doesn't seem to have fully grown up. Over the past four years, Lex and Gion have spent a lot of time at the amusement park.
"Okay, my princess, shall we walk there or teleport there directly?"
Lex raised Zhiyuan's hand, brought it to his chest, bent down and kissed it lightly, and asked with a smile.
"My dear knight, I ask you to escort me all the way there. I want to enjoy the night scenery and taste the delicacies along the way with you."
Zhiyuan smiled sweetly and walked out the door, with Lex following closely behind holding Zhiyuan's hand.
Under the night sky, four years of companionship make the couple enjoy the time together.
