Ultra Star

Chapter 23: My Lover Is Not Intent

"The training is so tiring. Fortunately, I have gained something. My reaction speed is much stronger than before. This way, I can better cooperate with the Space Wind Wolf's advance after I become an Ultra Warrior."

Cui Cheng had just finished training today, and was about to drink some water and go back to take a shower in the afternoon, but the communicator was connected.

"Hello, my name is Jana, and you saved me during the battle with Dragiri."

Cui Cheng was very puzzled. After all, he often saved people on the battlefield. Besides, it had been a while, so he said, "Do you want to thank me? It's okay. I often do this. Excuse me, beautiful lady, do you have anything else to say? If not, I'll hang up now."

It’s not that Cui Cheng hates this person, but on the one hand he is not familiar with this person, and on the other hand this world is quite chaotic, who knows which boss might have called this person to trick him.

"I'd like to ask if you are free this afternoon? I would like to go shopping with you."

"Huh?" Cui Cheng was confused when he heard the news. This was the first time a girl asked him out. He would be lying if he said he wasn't excited. But Cui Cheng still asked, "Are we just the two of us?"

"Well! Do you have time?"

"Okay, then where should I find you? I'll come find you right after I finish training and take a shower."

"I'm at the entrance of the college. I can wait for you for a while."

When Cui Cheng heard this, he immediately said that he would go and take Jana to his room first. After all, it felt a bit rude to let a girl wait at the door.

After saying that, Cui Cheng rushed to the door with a towel draped over his head and a bottle of water in his hand. When he arrived at the door, he saw a cute girl with twin black ponytails standing at the door, as if waiting for someone.

"Excuse me, are you Jana?"

Cui Cheng asked the woman.

"It's me. You look better as a human than in the photo." Jana was wearing a light blue Lolita-style dress today, which made her look very playful with her cute face.

"Please spare me. Don't I know what I look like?" Cui Cheng said as he led Jana to his dormitory. "By the way, where did you get my contact information?"

"I specifically asked Ms. Theresa. After all, she is an A-rank Valkyrie. Although it was a little difficult, I still found out where you live."

The two chatted all the way to Cui Cheng's dormitory. Cui Cheng's dormitory didn't have much decoration, only some basic living utensils. Cui Cheng took his change of clothes and went into the bathroom.

In the bathroom, Cui Cheng made a phone call to Theresa over the sound of running water.

"Dean, I want to ask you something. Why did a woman I don't know find out my contact information and come to me specifically?"

Theresa was taking a nap in her room with a yellow doll in her arms. She was a little annoyed when she was woken up by the phone call: "Is there anything I can do? I've been asking about you at the headquarters for a while. I can't just watch her stay sad. Besides, I just want to repay you. I'll recommend that I take you for a walk around the neighborhood while you're on vacation. Come on!" After that, she hung up the phone.

Later, when Cui Cheng and Jiana were shopping, they could only whisper: "The boss is unreliable."

On the way, Jana saw a set of men's T-shirts and asked Cui Cheng for his opinion.

"I think it looks great, whether you wear it everyday or pair it with a coat for an important occasion."

"In that case, let's go to the fitting room and try it on." Then he pushed Cui Cheng into the fitting room to try on clothes. But what Cui Cheng didn't know was that the clothes he tried on were actually similar to the ones Jana was wearing at the time, and Jana picked them on purpose. If it wasn't for the excuse that she would wear the new clothes later, Cui Cheng and Jana would probably wear couple clothes. Cui Cheng didn't find this out until he went back and compared them.

Afterwards, the two of them went to a restaurant to eat, and on the way, Jana also learned some of Cui Cheng's experiences.

"Then why don't you hide your identity in this world?"

"The main reason is that I can't explain how I was able to free fall from a height of 10,000 meters without any injuries. I can't say that I injected some kind of serum. Besides, the combat system of this world is relatively complete, so there's no need to hide it."

The two were chatting in the restaurant when the food came and they met three acquaintances.

"Teacher, why are you here, and here with a beautiful lady? Teacher, you wouldn't..."

"Kiana, have you finished writing your review?"

"Teacher, you are cheating."

Kiana and Cui Cheng started chatting, and Cui Cheng took the opportunity to introduce the two parties.

"It turns out that Sister Jana is actually an A-rank Valkyrie, so amazing!"

Kiana and the others were shocked. After all, an A-rank Valkyrie was a strong fighter and she actually appeared near a restaurant not far from the academy.

"Nothing, why don't you three come over to eat together? My sister will treat you today."

Upon hearing this, Kiana was the first to rush to Jana and took her arm. Mei and the others couldn't stop her, so they had to sit next to her and opposite her.

Several people were chatting while eating, and Cui Cheng did not forget to add more dishes to Jana and others. Of course, Cui Cheng just felt that as a man, he must not make things difficult for a group of girls, and he had no intention of taking the opportunity to show his gentlemanly manners.

During the meal, Cui Cheng saw a bag of white powdery substance fall out of a man's pocket. He thought it was drugs and grabbed the man. Later, he found out that it was a bag of protein powder and apologized immediately. Cui Cheng's action also shocked several people at the same table.

"I'm sorry for losing my composure just now. It's mainly because I saw that thing now because of my brother's conditional reflex."

When Jana heard this, she asked, "What happened to your brother, Cui Cheng?"

Cui Cheng told several girls the story of Awei. When he talked about the part that Awei wanted to be a policeman in his next life, the four of them shed tears.

"Teacher, I didn't expect your brother to be so capable. He did this kind of thing before he even graduated from the police academy."

Mei and Brunia also nodded in agreement.

"Yes, my brother is very powerful. But if I couldn't see his soul for some reason, I would not be able to stop that guy. The average life expectancy of my brother's police force is only about 40 years old, but he still wants to be a policeman in his next life. He is such a fool!"

After saying this, Cui Cheng also shed tears and missed his friend so much.

Mei Raiden asked another question: "Teacher, can we really see other people's souls?"

Cui Cheng learned about Mei's family situation from Theresa and said, "I don't know either. At least I haven't seen other people's souls since that time. But the only thing I can be sure of is that I can't see your souls, because as long as I'm alive on the battlefield, you will never die. And I will never die because I'm an Ultraman and I can heal myself. Hahaha!"

Cui Cheng picked up the vegetables from Mei's plate and said, "It's delicious. Thank you Mei for honoring the teacher. Also, young people should not talk about this kind of topic all the time, especially during meals. It's unlucky." Cui Cheng said playfully while holding the chopsticks, and then said seriously, "I will never abandon my friends and comrades. This is the only word I will not break."

After that, they started eating, and Cui Cheng left for a while during the meal.

After dinner, Cui Cheng separated from Jana and gave her a gift.

"Here you go, it's a not-too-expensive necklace. I specifically asked the store to find a style that suits you. Thank you for accompanying me shopping today."

Jana carefully put away the gift and prepared to try it when she got home.

After arriving at the dormitory, Cui Cheng sent a message to Meiyi, telling her not to dwell on the past. She will be fine now as she has teachers, friends and family. She can bring up any issues she has and there is no need to worry about it.

Inside the base, Jana was carefully trying on the necklace, and a teammate beside her joked, "Captain, this isn't a gift from your boyfriend."

Jana blushed, chased the team member away and sighed.

Today's contact made Jana know that Cui Cheng was a polite and modest person with a delicate mind in some aspects. But it seemed that he had no interest in love with her from the beginning to the end. She didn't expect that her first love at first sight would end in vain. Jana looked at the information in her hand again and fell into deep thought.
