Chapter 172
Jiang Yan was a new student at the academy, similar to a freshman. However, due to the longer average lifespan in the interstellar era, their ages appeared relatively young.
The interstellar society was quite open-minded. As the meeting dispersed, Jiang Yan saw several couples holding hands. She looked around, curious about Jiang Youbai's reaction.
Suddenly, someone's hand touched her cheek, gently turning her head to face forward. A lazy voice chuckled, casually advising, "Watch where you're going."
It was Jiang Youbai, wearing a stiff athletic shirt with bandages on his hands. She had noticed him earlier. But since they had just met and he had no memories of her, she couldn't be too forward. So Jiang Yan decided to return with Lu Ningning.
The teacher was lecturing, the complex content incomprehensible to an outsider like Jiang Yan.
So she let her mind wander, pondering the plot. The teachers in this class were well-informed about the students' backgrounds and never meddled, allowing Jiang Yan to daydream freely.
She suddenly realized a problem: Jiang Youbai was her target, but she also had a fiancé, and there was Lin Zhi who would be attracted to her later...
There were too many intersecting characters. But brave Jiang Yan wasn't afraid of challenges!
The fiancé wasn't important, so she decided to resolve that issue first, then win over Jiang Youbai, and use Lin Zhi just to advance the plot.
Acting on her plan, Jiang Yan went home and told her parents about breaking off the engagement. However, things weren't that simple.DiiScôver new stories on
Her fiancé, Lu Yang, was a few years older than Jiang Yan and already a trainee mecha pilot. The Lu family was of equal social standing to the Jiang family, which was why the two families had arranged the engagement with the children's consent.
"I don't agree," Lu Yang said, his tone sharp and cold.
Lu's Mother was startled by his harsh tone. She exclaimed in surprise, "Weren't you reluctant when you got engaged? Why don't you want to cancel it now?"
Lu Yang replied, enunciating each word, "I. Was. Extremely. Willing."
Clearly, saying this now was useless. Lu Yang began formulating a solution, asking his mother, "Why does she want to break the engagement? Do you know, Mom?"
Lu's Mother was still shocked by her usually indifferent son's vivid emotions, and absent-mindedly replied, "I think I heard your Aunt Jiang say she has someone she likes now."
The communication was abruptly cut off. Lu's Mother, experiencing her son hanging up on her for the first time, didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Lu Yang rushed straight to his coach, coldly requesting leave, his whole demeanor radiating the fierce intent of a man whose wife had been stolen.
But the coach refused.
The mecha pilot selection was approaching, and training was at a crucial stage. He had to wait until training was over to leave.
Lu Yang calmly confirmed this result couldn't be changed, then turned decisively and returned to his mecha, proceeding to unleash a barrage of attacks on his practice opponent.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yan had already launched a full-scale offensive to win over Jiang Youbai. Because the mission in this world was too complex and difficult to solve, Jiang Yan decided to secure her target first before dealing with anything else.
