StarTie Simulation: Aren’t you NPCs?

Chapter 157: Charge! Master! Revolt! Disciple! (Part )

Ever since the cocktail stand was brought in, Wu Xuan and Ji Zi have been chatting with each other, drinking the drinks they mixed, and spending the waiting time together.

Ji Zi, who was lying on the bed beside Wu Xuan, couldn't help but sigh.

He always felt that he shouldn't teach Ji Zi how to make cocktails. Why did it seem like she was both a novice and a playful person?

"He fell down after just a few sips...what is this..." After Wu Xuan finished complaining, he picked up Ji Zi, who was lying sideways on the bed with her head and calves drooping over the edge of the bed. After slightly adjusting her position, he put her down gently.

"Be careful of cerebral hemorrhage if you sleep like this...really..."

As Wu Xuan spoke, he covered Ji Zi with a quilt and tucked in the corners. Just as he was about to get up, Ji Zi, who was "asleep", reached out her hand and grabbed her neck, then pulled Wu Xuan in front of her with force.

The two looked into each other's eyes, and this was the first time Wu Xuan...had admired Ji Zi up close while she was drunk.

Perhaps because of being drunk, Ji Zi's fair cheeks were slightly red, and her amber eyes looked at Wu Xuan in front of her with a bit of haziness, as if covered with a layer of mist.

"Ji...Jizi, what are you doing..."

Ji Zi gently shook her head, reached out and touched Wu Xuan's cheek, then whispered: "I don't do anything... I just want to see the teacher..."

As she said this, she touched Wu Xuan's face and continued to talk to herself: "Teacher... do you know? The day I met the train was my birthday..."

"On my birthday, I had a quarrel with my tutor. The knowledge that should have been abandoned still appeared in the textbooks, filling the students' study time, but it was of no help to them at all..."

"I argued with him for a few words, and after class I ran out. I don't know how long I ran, but I finally ran to the beach and saw the Starry Sky Train."

At this point, a smile from the heart emerged on Ji Zi's face. Although under the influence of alcohol... this smile was a little silly, it was also touching enough.

She smiled and continued, “That was the turning point in my life.”

"The vast universe, the fragrant coffee, the beautiful cocktails... and a teacher who gives me meticulous care and guidance."

“This is something I never dared to think of before.”

“But now, it has come true.”

Ji Zi let out a long breath, and the hot breath mixed with a hint of alcohol hit Wu Xuan's face, making him a little at a loss for a moment.

She no longer held Wu Xuan's neck with her hands, but held Wu Xuan's face with her hands, smiling foolishly, and then said: "I can't believe it... my ideal type is... the teacher I have always admired..."

"Teacher... do you still remember the question I asked not long ago?"

Before Wu Xuan could reply, Ji Zi said, "Let me ask you...if we can't defeat that monster, what should we do?"

"And you said without hesitation that you would let me go first."

"I asked you the reason, and you said that it was because I was Jizi, so you let me go first and left you alone to face that difficult monster."

"You know what, teacher...my heart even skipped a beat after you said that."

"Teacher...are you..."

This time, Wu Xuan did not wait for Ji Zi to finish her words. Instead, he gently reached out his hand and pinched Ji Zi's slightly red cheek, and whispered, "I love you, my student, Miss Ji Zi."

In fact, Wu Xuan himself knew very well that Ji Zi's feelings for him were not just simple attachment, and not just because he helped her distract her when she was most vulnerable and taught her the knowledge and logic that was regarded as a miracle by the outside world.

If Wu Xuan's initial affection for Ji Zi came from his companionship after a long period of emptiness and loneliness, then Ji Zi's initial affection for Wu Xuan came from Wu Xuan's companionship and meticulous care when she was vulnerable.

This was the beginning of the relationship between the two people.

After that...Wu Xuan took good care of Ji Zi, and Ji Zi also tried her best to repair the train in less than two months, freeing Wu Xuan from the dark environment.

The relationship between partners and teachers and students, which had originally been inseparable, began to deteriorate.

Wu Xuan is still the same as before, he takes good care of Ji Zi, and he also protects Ji Zi well when he arrives at Lyra-V.

Ji Zi was attracted by Wu Xuan's thoughtfulness and elegance. His erudition and his love of coffee made her firmly believe that...he was the one she was looking for.

They always have common topics, and during breaks they can sit on the long sofa in the observation car with a cup of coffee and quietly watch the stars flowing outside the window.

This scene is exactly what Ji Zi wanted.

And Ji Zi...she never hides her desire for the starry sky, and she also never hides her desire for love.

Even if it is March 7, Walter, and Dan Heng, one day they will choose to get off because of something that touches them, or because they discover what they want, or because they find a new direction in life.

But Wu Xuan was the navigator, and both he and she agreed to take the Star Train, go to the starting point of the Achievers' journey together, and send the train home.

This means that he (she) will no longer be alone on his (her) journey in the future, and their future... will always be one of moving forward hand in hand.

Even if they don't get together now, in the not too distant future, long-term companionship will eventually make the "pure" teacher-student relationship deteriorate and become... another kind of friendship.

This is why Ji Zi chose Wu Xuan.

With the help of alcohol, she said what she dared not say under the light of the street lamp.

She didn't dare say it was because of shyness, not because of fear of rejection.

Because...Wu Xuan also yearns for her, likes her, and loves her.

For Wu Xuan, the relationship between himself and Ji Zi began with repeated misunderstandings, developed in daily life, and finally received the final answer in a special event.

Wu Xuan thought about the question "Do I really like Ji Zi?" three times, but the answer was the same every time.

That is, he really likes Ji Zi.

He liked her elegance, her charming amber eyes, her adventurous spirit, and her willingness to get to the bottom of all kinds of issues.

With the combination of these factors and the initial "taking advantage of the opportunity", he had already fallen in love with her.
