After a long while, the morial service finally ca to an end.
The many attendees began leaving one after another.
Rhein and the others pushed Su Ming out, and just as they reached the Cetery gate, they saw Irelia in a purple dress walking toward them.
Su Ming froze for a mont when he saw Irelia, then turned to Rhein and the others and said,
"Rhein, wait for at the school gate."
"No problem, we get it!"
Rhein and the others replied with a grin, then very tactfully took their leave.
At this mont, Irelia walked up behind Su Ming and started pushing his wheelchair toward the inner courtyard.
Under the jacaranda tree, Irelia spoke to Su Ming in a soft voice.
"You worked hard this ti."
"It’s nothing."
Su Ming gave a slight shake of his head as he replied.
"Your condition is really bad right now. Your body took a huge hit, and your mind suffered heavy damage too. You need proper rest."
"I know, but with how things are now, there’s basically no ti."
"You don’t have to worry about what cos next. Just leave it to ."
Irelia said calmly.
Hearing this, Su Ming smiled and said,
"Cough, cough, is that really okay? You’re making it sound like I’m completely useless, can’t even protect my future wife."
Irelia was stunned for a mont, then the corners of her lips lifted and she replied with a smile,
"Oh, really? I’m so touched! I just don’t know which ’wife’ you’re talking about. I heard soone’s got one foot on several boats already, aren’t you afraid your legs will get broken?"
"Uh...."
Su Ming was instantly dumbfounded, feeling a chill between his legs.
"Haha, look how scared you are, I’m just ssing with you."
"Phew~"
....
---------------------------------------------
At dusk.
Xi Guang Laboratory.
Rhein and the others pushed Su Ming back to his room.
"Rhein, you guys go get so rest."
Su Ming said to Rhein and the others.
"But, boss, your body?"
"Relax, I’m already much better. If anything cos up, I’ll call you."
"Okay!"
Rhein and the others nodded, then turned and left the room.
At this mont, Su Ming noticed the bracelet on the nightstand. He picked it up and took a look; the bracelet was out of power and shut down.
Su Ming plugged in the charger and turned on the bracelet, and ssages instantly popped up one after another.
They were all from his parents, grandpa, Grandpa, Hilis, Vivian, Mia, Su Yuan and other relatives and friends.
Because he was currently under special protection and couldn’t be visited, they could only send ssages to check on him.
Looking at all these ssages, Su Ming’s face broke into a bright smile.
Compared to the fake flattery of his previous life, this was real, sincere emotion.
Su Ming carefully replied to each ssage, letting his parents and friends know he was safe so they wouldn’t worry.
After a long while, when he finished chatting with everyone and looked up, he was greeted by Celeste’s virtual projection suddenly leaning right up to his face like a ghost, blinking at him nonstop.
The corner of Su Ming’s mouth twitched slightly as he said,
"Celeste, are you trying to scare to death?"
"Hey now, how can you say that about ? I was so worried about you, scared sothing would happen and you’d just croak."
Celeste pouted as she spoke.
"Alright, my bad."
Su Ming replied with a laugh.
"Forget it, considering you’re injured, I’ll be the bigger person and forgive you. And I’ll even tell you a piece of good news."
"What good news?"
"Thanks to everyone’s passionate ’feeding,’ the Grey Angel is almost repaired and will be able to return to battle soon."
Celeste said to Su Ming with a grin.
"Feeding?"
Su Ming asked with a puzzled look.
"Yeah! Here’s what happened: soone started a dedicated thread about the Grey Angel on the Star Cluster Forum, discussing all sorts of Grey Angel topics. I left a ssage saying that because we’re short on Energy Crystals, the repair progress would be slow. And then everyone got super enthusiastic and lined up to ’feed’ a mountain of Energy Crystals. I was almost embarrassed!"
Celeste said with a giggle.
Hearing this, the corner of Su Ming’s mouth kept twitching as he replied speechlessly,
"Alright, you win."
"Hehe, (*^▽^*)."
"By the way, Celeste, do you have the battle footage from after I passed out?"
Su Ming asked curiously.
"Of course I do, I’ll project it for you!"
Celeste imdiately projected the battle footage.
Watching Long Bai pilot the Dark Demon God in combat, Su Ming was genuinely stunned; the fighting techniques were flawless, practically perfect.
Soon he saw the Ancient Legendary Level Star Destroyer·Isabella appear, brazenly tanking and absorbing the Herares Clan Leader’s attack, then blowing apart his Klein Barrier with a single shot.
Su Ming asked in great surprise,
"What ship is that?"
"Shocked, right? That’s the Federation’s new Ancient Legendary Level Star Destroyer·Isabella! Its performance is insanely strong, even better than the Grey Angel!"
Celeste said enviously.
"Isabella..."
Hearing the na, Su Ming’s expression turned pensive.
"Yup. Actually, I brought a friend along when I ca to see you today."
Celeste said cheerfully.
"A friend? Who?"
Su Ming was slightly taken aback when he heard Celeste’s words.
"Ta-da, look!"
Celeste pointed with her little hand to the side.
The next second, Isabella’s virtual image appeared.
"Senior."
Su Ming greeted respectfully.
"Just call Isabella."
Isabella said to Su Ming coolly.
"Alright!"
Su Ming answered quickly.
Then Celeste said to Su Ming with a playful smile,
"Su Ming, big sis Isabella is here specifically to see you. She wants to ask you for a favor!"
