Chapter 13: The Return

King sat quietly at his desk, tapping on his computer, looking through classified documents.

As the day of the summit draws closer, a small number of survivors have appeared in all regions, and the issue should be discussed at this meeting.

King frowned, thinking about his next move.

At this point, Jack brought his coffee into the study and placed it on King's desk, ready to turn and leave.

"Nancy is coming back soon, you can prepare some dishes for her favorite tonight." King snapped.

Jack was slightly stunned and asked, "Is Miss Nancy okay?" ”

King didn't look at him, still staring intently at the computer, and casually said, "She's safe." ”

Before Jack left the study, he glanced at King, then gently closed the door.

King's gaze finally left the computer, and he looked up at the closed door, thoughtful.

The phone rang suddenly, and King answered the call.

"King, you're back." Lucy's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"The other humans are here too?" King asked calmly.

"Yes." Lucy replied.

"Okay, I'll pick up Xiao Xian in a moment."

Wang Xian in this world has no memory of King at all, which once made him feel very lonely. However, Xiao Xian, who came from the past, made him feel very familiar, as if she was the person he had been looking for.

"Sister Lucy, can humans go to W University to study?" Detective asked.

Lucy glanced at the man beside her, "There is no precedent, but the school rules don't say that humans are not allowed to enter. ”

"If he can get in, he should be able to go." Lucy thought for a moment and said, "But I still learned that it will be King." ”

"A sudden human running to a canine-like campus may cause a commotion." Lucy frowned.

"King, I'll go tell you." Xianxian said, "Hu Xin, you better prepare for the exam first." ”

"Brother Hu Xin, let's prepare for the exam with Qiuqiu." Gu Xiaowei suddenly stepped forward and said.

Xianxian glanced at the thin boy who had just spoken, but he didn't expect that he had become good friends with Qiuqiu.

Hu Xin looked at Qiuqiu, and then at Xian Xian.

"Hu Xin, this is Qiuqiu." Xian Xian hurriedly stepped forward and introduced, "Thanks to Qiuqiu, I have been able to live until now without incident." ”

"Please advise me in the future." Hu Xin squatted down and stretched out his hand towards Qiuqiu, and a man and a dog held hands harmoniously.

"Sister Lucy, can you let Hu Xin and Grandpa Mu live with you?" Detective asked.

Lucy hesitated for a moment before saying, "I've actually found a place for them to live a long time ago." ”

"I'm thinking of letting Hu Xin and Qiuqiu learn together." Xian Yan said.

"Okay, so be it."

Qiuqiu bit the corner of Gu Xiaowei's clothes and pulled him to Lucy together.

Lucy seemed to understand what Qiuqiu meant, and asked, "Do you want Williams to live too?" ”

Qiuqiu nodded.

"There aren't enough beds, you and Serena Williams share a room." Lucy thought for a moment and said.

Qiuqiu wagged his tail happily.

Seeing this scene in front of him, Xian Xian showed an extraordinarily gentle smile. "Did you see that? Humans and dogs can still get along like this. Xianxian whispered in Hu Xin's ear.

"See. But this is just the beginning, and no one knows what will happen next. Now Qiuqiu is just a golden retriever, and when he becomes a canine, will he still be so friendly? Hu Xin leaned close to Xianxian's ear and whispered.

"Xiao Xian." King stood at the door of the restaurant, looking at the two of them with some surprise.

As soon as he heard the familiar voice, Xianxian immediately turned around and ran to him.

"You're here." There was a little grievance in her words, and tears couldn't help but flow.

Looking at her teary-eyed image, King hugged her into his arms and gently kissed the tears in the corners of her eyes.

"I'll take you home."

Everyone froze there in shock.

Grandpa Mu's face was extremely ugly, Hu Xin's eyes showed a trace of resentment, Lucy's face was full of envy, and Qiuqiu wagged his tail happily......

She was also frightened by King's actions, and he actually kissed her...... King had licked her cheeks before, but she was a dog at the time, and now it would be misleading. How would she make sense of his behavior? An instinctive canine friendly closeness to humans?

"Why is your face so red?" King frowned slightly, "Is it a fever?" ”

She shook her head, "I'm fine, it's just a little hot." ”

King let go of his embrace, reached out and touched his forehead, then his own. Then rubbed her forehead with his own forehead, feeling the temperature of each other.

"I don't seem to have a fever." King muttered to himself.

Xian Xian couldn't imagine the expressions of the bystanders, the two of them looked very ambiguous like this!

"King, it's better for us to keep our distance." Burn took two steps back.

"Why keep your distance?" King looked at her bewildered, "You're my man, we're the closest. ”

"Do you know what you're talking about?" Xianxian glanced at the audience on the side, and sure enough, they all had "adulterous" expressions.

"Don't get me wrong, we're not the kind of relationship you think." Xian Lian hurriedly explained.

King didn't pay any attention to the gaze of the others, but stepped forward to take her hand and led her out of the small restaurant.

The atmosphere in the car was extremely dull, and Xian Xian lowered his head and didn't dare to look at him at all.

"Are you being shy?" King suddenly realized that although he has a high IQ and EQ, he has zero experience in love, and he can't understand the mind of a little girl at all.

"What you did just now will make everyone misunderstand." She sighed.

"Misunderstanding what?" King frowned.

"I misunderstand that you like me."

"I do like you very much, they didn't misunderstand." King's smile looked very sincere.

"Do you know what it means to like?" Burnt was stunned.

"The meaning of liking is very broad." King said earnestly.

"And what does your liking for me mean?" 燨燨燨 asked.

King was stunned, he had never thought about it. "I really haven't thought about it."

There was a hint of disappointment in her eyes, and it seemed that she was thinking too much about herself. King's affection for her is by no means the kind between people of the opposite sex. Maybe it's really the relationship between family members.

"Xiao Xian, I will think about it carefully, and when I find the answer one day, I will definitely answer you." King said earnestly.

"No, I'm just asking." Xianxian smiled awkwardly, "Those actions you just made them misunderstand that we are a couple." ”

King looked confused and looked out the window in silence.

"I'm sorry, my actions just now were all instinctive, I didn't expect so much." King explained quietly.

Xian Xian let out a long breath, and it was better that the relationship between them should not become too complicated. Because he loves Wang Xian in this world, and she is just a passer-by from the past.

"It's okay, it's good to make things clear." She was finally able to look him in the face.

When he got home, King walked into the study alone.

"Lucy, I'll ask you a question."

"What's the problem?" Lucy's face was full of confusion.

"In your eyes, what is the relationship between me and Xiao Xian?" King asked earnestly.

Lucy was stunned, what kind of problem was this......

"Normal people can tell that you are lovers." Lucy said casually.

King's face was full of confusion, "She's my family. ”

"Ask your own heart. You're not related by blood, Wool's family? Lucy said, "I'll ask you, if one day, Xiao Xian falls in love with someone else, and wants to marry someone else and leave you." Will you be happy? ”

"I'll kill that guy! No one can snatch her from me. King said grimly.

"Look, your affection for her is not family love at all." Lucy explained, "If you see her as family and she finds someone to love, you'll just bless her, and you want her to be happy more than anyone else." ”

King was silent for a moment before asking, "Is my mentality really wrong?" ”

Lucy sighed, "Your heart doesn't deceive yourself, you're just in love with Xiao Xian." ”

King frowned, "But I don't ...... Xiao Xian of this era"

"Are feelings different?" Lucy was a little confused.

"Well, there's always a gap." King said.

"It seems that you treat the two of them as different people." Lucy lamented, "But they're two different individuals. ”

"Do you have an answer?" Lucy asked suddenly.

"Not yet." King whispered.

"Then you'll have to hurry up." Lucy smiled, "Don't let her heart be stolen by others first." ”

"Who are you referring to?" King's face was a little gloomy.

"Xiao Xian is a human, she will probably like humans." Lucy laughed, "What, you want to change your mind and kill all the humans?" ”

King hung up the phone and stood quietly in front of the window, looking at the girl in the courtyard. When he recalled the scene he had seen in the diner, he felt extremely irritable. After becoming the head of the seven, how long has he not been so upset as he is now?

Xian Xian, who was eating refreshments, looked up slightly and noticed the figure by the window. She waved at him.

"Jack has prepared afternoon tea, do you want to come over and eat together?" She got up and walked to the window, still holding the pastry she had just taken a bite of.

King lowered his head and took a bite of the cake in his hand. "It tastes pretty good."

At this moment, the distance between them was only 1 centimeter, and they stood there with their long eyelashes shining golden in the sun, and their flushed faces looked particularly delicate and lovely.

Seeing such a fire, King couldn't help but be stunned. He never seemed to have seen her up close like this, and he could clearly hear his own irregular heartbeat.

"Is this what it feels like to be excited?" King pondered.

In order to alleviate the embarrassment in front of him, Xianxian asked in a low voice, "Do you want to come over and eat together?" ”

"Okay."

The two sat leisurely at the dining table, sipping black tea and eating dessert.

"Well, I have something to ask you for." Xian Yan said.

"What's the matter?" King put down his teacup and looked at her earnestly.

"It's about humans." "I hope you'll agree to let humans study at W University. ”

"As long as humans have the ability to get in, I won't stop it." King smiled faintly and picked up the teacup to take a sip.

"You won't stop it, but that doesn't mean others won't stop it, right?" Xian Yan said.

"What do you want me to do?" King asked.

"I want you to talk to the school leaders and show you your attitude towards humanity." Xian Yan said.

"You really want me to do this?" King's expression was a little serious.

"Does that make it difficult for you?" Xianxian frowned, in fact, he should be glad that he could promise not to stop it, but she still expected him to help.

"My trouble is not in the dynasty, but in other regions." "If I give this order to the school, it means telling all the canines in the dynasty that I am willing to forgive and accept humans. ”

Xianxian didn't think about it so much, she just hoped to help Hu Xin and Xiao Wei. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have embarrassed you."

King burst out laughing and said, "If that's what you want, I'm willing to do it." ”

"King, I just hope that something can be done to make humans and canines get to know each other again." Xianxian explained.

"From the moment I saw that agreement, I knew what was going on your mind." King said.

"You guessed it was me?" She was a little surprised.

"Well, in this world, only you would be so naΓ―ve as to believe in a canine." King's eyes became extraordinarily gentle, "If humans can put aside their hatred and live in peace with canines, I have no reason to stop it." ”

"On the human side, it's up to you and Lucy." King said.

"What about the school?"

"I'll be informed." King promised.

"Thank you."

"Between me and you, you don't have to be so polite." King petted her head dotingly, "We're family. ”

"Since we can be family, humans and canines should be friends." Xianxian swore and said.

"Hopefully, that day will come." King smiled, "I'm going to go on a long trip the day after tomorrow." ”

"What's the matter?" Xian Xian's heart was a little reluctant, she had just come back, but he was leaving again.

"Meeting of the Seven Heads of State. This meeting may be a bit long. King said.

"Can I go along?" Xianxian pleaded, she was still very curious about the Seven Heads of State, and now she could perfectly disguise herself as a canine, and she should not be discovered by them.

"You want to go?" King didn't expect Xianxian to want to go with him, in previous years, he went to the meetings alone, and other heads of state would occasionally bring their families with them.

"Can't you?" She frowned, wondering if she was embarrassing King again.

"No, I'm happy." King laughed, "In previous years, I was on my own. ”

"Then I'll go with you from now on." Xianxian smiled.

"Good. I'll ask Jack to help you pack your bags. King said, "By the way, until then, we're going to Lucy and Luffy's wedding tomorrow. ”

"yes, I almost forgot that they were getting married. I was kidnapped by humans when I went to find Sister Lucy. Xianxian suddenly remembered, "There are really too many things happening these days, and I feel that my brain capacity is not enough." ”

"You're going to rest at home tonight, and don't go anywhere. Otherwise, Lucy's wedding should be canceled again. King laughed.

"I had an accident, why did their wedding have to be cancelled? It's not me getting married. She muttered.

"You want to get married?" King frowned, he had never imagined what it would be like for her to marry someone else in her wedding dress.

"I'm only 18 years old, who got married so early?"

"But, I think you seem to envy them for getting married." King said.
