Chapter 26 - Flower Amber

Chen Sha said that their marriage was on mutual benefits of many stakeholders. He could not decide to divorce alone but agreed to divorce on one condition, that she had to received his special training and leveled up to level A first.

Lorraine took a chance at lunch time to go to the dormitory to find Qian Xu.

The robot Big Bear rotated its bulging eyes and said, "Master is not at home. Please come to visit later or contact master directly."

"Can I go in?"

"What do you say?" Big Bear unexpectedly rolled its eyes.

Lorraine knocked its head on the screen and sent a message to Qian Xu: "Are you at the base? I have something to tell you in person."

Qian Xu did not reply directly. After more than ten minutes, he directly appeared in front of her.

Lorraine followed behind Qian Xu walk into the room. Qian Xu didn't even invite her to sit. He stood in the empty living room and asked indifferent, "What's the matter?"

Lorraine took a step forward and he immediately took a step back, deliberately keeping the distance.   

Lorraine's mind became mischievous, pressing forward step by step.   

Qian Xu stepped by step back, retreated until ended at the wall.

Oh, my! Is this the moment to smack the wall? Lorraine held back her laugh and kept going forward, slapped one hand hard on the wall.   

Qian Xu quick as lightning slid to the other side and stood behind her.   

Lorraine smirked with a pity. She turned around and looked at Qian Xu with a smile: "You seem to never have experiences with women."   

"If you have nothing to say, I'm leaving." Qian Xu's face flushed red, his eyes were full of anger.

Lorraine didn't dare to keep teasing him. Her smile vanished and said seriously: "The commander agreed to divorce me."

"What?" Qian Xu's face turned into shock and looked at Lorraine as if looking at a lunatic.

Lorraine said with a big smile: "Our wedding was originally a marriage of benefit. He was not merry. I was not joyful. Let alone I'm also a fake one. From the very beginning, the commander and I had agreed to be a fake husband and wife. Also we can't be a fake husband and wife for a lifetime. Yesterday I suggested for a divorce and he already agreed."   

Qian Xu's heart was ups and downs. His eyes were complicated. For ten years, he thought he had known her well, but every time she still made him greatly shock.

"For you." Lorrain opened her hand. Laid on her palm was a piece of a thumb-size sparkling translucent stone, "A small gift."   

Qian Xu hesitantly picked it up and found that it was amber. A blue mythical flower was wrapped in a sparkling translucent brown resin. Under the sunlight, flower petals reflecting circles of halo, like the time had left years of growth rings.

"If it is a naturally formed with a complete flower shape's flower amber, it will be a considerable cost. This one is a replica. I made it myself. I bought raw materials and spent a little money, not even expensive as a cup of Deep Blue Green." Lorraine afraid that Qian Xu would not accept it so she repeatedly emphasized that the gift was not that much value.   

"Why do you give me this?"   

"A represent of my promise." Lorrain raised her hand and made a vow gesture, "I promise, I will level up my strength to A level as soon as possible. If you get sick again in the future, you will not have to worry about killing me."   

Qian Xu returned the flower amber to Lorraine and said coldly: "From now on our chance to meet each other will not be much. You gave to the wrong partner."

Lorraine reached out her hand as if about to take the flower amber back, but actually held Qian Xu's hand, "I am not Princess Lorraine, and I will soon not be the commander's wife. If I am just Luo Xun, will you accept this gift?"   

Qian Xu wanted to pull back his hand but Lorraine refused to let it go.   

Her fingers were warm. Qian Xu's fingers were cold. Warmth and coldness entangled. No one backed down, both inadvertently used wrestle technique.

With a clanking sound, the flower amber fell to the ground.   

Lorraine held her aching hand, her face aggrieved.   

Qian Xu wanted to ask her where she hurt, yet immediately restrained himself, "The commander is honorably powerful, young and promising. He will be a very good husband. If you try to get along well with him, you will definitely find..."   

Lorraine sharply interrupted Qian Xu's unfinished sentence, "I didn't like him. I like only you!"

Qian Xu was stunned.   

In the interstellar, along with the lower and lower marriage rate, seeking pleasure was common, but seeking love was rare. Especially in the Odin Federation, the outside was war stress, the inside was genetic complication. Regardless of men or women, all were unwilling to promise for the might not coming future, only wanted to pursue an overnight pleasure.   

"Qian Xu, I like only you!" Lorraine saw that Qian Xu kept not responding so she called up all her courage and confessed again.   

Qian Xu's eyes waver. At last, hundred thousand thoughts had turned into helpless melancholy, "I'm just a useless person with no future, not worthy for you."   

"Worthy or not, I know it myself." Lorraine picked up the flower amber on the floor and gave it to Qian Xu again, "You just need to answer me. If I'm just Luo Xun, will you accept this flower amber?"

"I won't!" Qian Xu completely cut it clear.

Lorraine's tears welled up in her eye but endured so tears won't fall, "You're lying! If you didn't like me, why didn't you prosecute that I'm a fake princess? Why did you still covered up for me when you fully aware that I'm committing a crime?"   

"I'm just in a friend standpoint. I can't bear to watch you die."   

"I don't believe it!" Lorraine's face was full of stubbornness and put the flower amber on the table, "Wait until my strength reached A level and done divorcing the commander, I will come to you again."
