In addition to bursting out a big news before the "conference meeting", Chu Xuan's next action can be said to be "just-like", but even so, the black cat, who was secretly looking back and forth with strange eyes, always had a stern face and said nothing, and it seemed that he had a "husband-wife relationship" with Chu Xuan.

After the "conference meeting", Chu Xuan said goodbye to Shinji Ikari, who didn't dare to leave at an intersection, and took Black Cat and Ayanami to the store street to buy ingredients for dinner, but Black Cat did not speak along the way until she returned home and closed the door, she blushed and shouted at Chu Xuan:

“Incredible! It’s really incredible!

You, what are you thinking in your mind!

I will never go to school again!”

Although Black Cat immediately showed off her extremely cold and noble appearance after Chu Xuan revealed the news, as if she was saying, "I'm just married, so what?" In fact, she was so shy that she was about to die. Even when she was walking on the shopping street, she wanted to run home immediately and never take a step out of the house again.

"I just told the truth."

Chu Xuan pushed down his reflective glasses expressionlessly, acting like he was very "innocent", but the black cat would not have been deceived by him so easily, and he still stared at him with tears in his eyes.

If Chu Xuan dares to say that this is just a new type of shame PLAY or something, the black cat will strip all his clothes and kick them into a mixed hot spring where all middle-aged and elderly women are to relieve his hatred.

"Don't quarrel."

At this time, Ayanami Ri, who had been walking quietly between Chu Xuan and the Black Cat, finally came out to persuade the fight. A little worried expression appeared on her face, but she didn't know what to do at this time - she must not smile anyway, right?

With Ayanami Ri's experience, he still couldn't see the real reason why Black Cat was angry. He could not determine whether Black Cat would really break up with Chu Xuan because of this matter, but Chu Xuan was very confident in the bond between him and Black Cat, so he did not explain anything to Black Cat immediately, but comforted Ayanami Ri:

"We didn't quarrel, Black Cat just didn't understand why I wanted to make the agreement between her and me public."

"Agreement?"

Ayanami Ri blinked her eyes as beautiful as rubies. She was a little curious.

"Yes, it is the promise that we will always be together regardless of poverty, wealth, good or bad environment, sickness and health from now on."

Chu Xuan cleverly explained the concept of "marriage" to Ayanami Ri. After hearing the marriage vow that most girls are familiar with except Ayanami Ri, Black Cat's anger also dissipated a lot, but she still turned her mouth into a "enter" shape and stared at Chu Xuan who made a big mistake very seriously.

——The Black Cat is not particularly angry because she has no face to go to school again in the future. If it weren’t for accompanying Ayahari, she would have been impatient to go to middle school again. After all, in countless universes, only a very small number of students would like the school, and most of them hate the school like Black Cat.

The reason why Black Cat was angry was because Chu Xuan disclosed that their marriage relationship was likely to have an adverse impact on the strategy Ayanami Ri. She originally planned to wait until the mission was over. Ayanami Ri and they returned to the main god space together before telling Ayanami Ri's relationship between herself and Chu Xuan, as well as other "sisters" and Chu Xuan, but she didn't expect Chu Xuan to cause trouble...

"But, why would the black cat get angry with such an agreement?"

Rei Ayanami fully understood Chu Xuan's words, but she immediately became new confused, because in her opinion, it was a very wonderful thing to be with Chu Xuan forever regardless of poverty or wealth, whether it was good or bad, whether it was sick or healthy - although she had no idea about "poverty and wealth".

"Because this was originally a secret that could not be told to others."

Chu Xuan pushed down the reflective glasses and cleverly explained the reason why Black Cat was angry again.

"I see."

Rei Ayaba nodded in a clear way, but she still didn't know the real reason why the black cat was angry.

Indeed, Chu Xuan and Hei Mao’s marriage relationship should not be known to people in the "world". This is not only because it may cause misunderstandings of the "strike target" and thus increase the difficulty of the strategy, but also because exposing the relationship between them can easily arouse suspicion from some people - especially the suspicion of NERV counter-espionage personnel.

However, Chu Xuan also considered this. Although he spoke seriously at school, he could fool him by just saying "that's just a joke" when asked in Katsurachi Miri, because NERV's "Interior Department" could easily investigate that he did not join Yemeni nationality. He did not establish a legally recognized marriage relationship with anyone.

As for whether Commander Gendo Ikari decided to suspend his custody because he might have "involved" the fourth qualified person, Wujiu Ryuri, so as not to fall into his claws, the important first qualified person, Ayaba Rei... If Chu Xuan's plan can be implemented smoothly, it will not matter when Commander Gendo Ikari makes a decision.

"So, are you willing to make the same agreement with me?"

Taking advantage of this topic, Chu Xuan finally found the opportunity to ask the most important question.

This is not a confession. If it is a confession, Ayanami Ri will neither understand nor respond. Instead, this kind of naive and simple agreement that is as innocent as a fairy tale can make the girl nod.

“…”

Ayanami Ri unexpectedly opened her blushing eyes, and a faint blush appeared on her face.

A very strange feeling emerged in her heart. This feeling was slightly sweet, slightly warm, but slightly bitter, and there were other feelings that could not be distinguished.

Unconsciously, tears rolled down Ayahari's face. She touched her face in surprise, put the liquid that had overflowed from her eyes again, and looked at it carefully.

"This is... tears, am I crying..."

Ayanami Ri's eyes were blinking at the water marks on her hands, while tears were still oozing out of her eyes, but at this moment her face was still as calm as usual - because she didn't know what expression she should make now.

She raised her head and looked at Chu Xuan, who was reflecting her glasses, and shed tears expressionlessly, and replied in a very plain tone:

"I'm sorry, I can't make this agreement because I can't promise to stay alive."

"Don't worry about this, because I will protect you."

Chu Xuan seemed to have expected Ayanami Ri's answer and immediately made a promise to her. The black cat, who understood, immediately grabbed Ayanami Ri's hands, which were colder than normal people, and said with a plea:

“In this world, no one can guarantee that he will survive in battle, but we cannot refuse happiness because of this.

——In other words, it is precisely because you don’t know if you will die in the next battle that you must hold on to happiness in time!

Is it okay to make an agreement with us? In this way, the three of us will be able to stay forever in the future.

And…even death cannot separate us!”

Although Black Cat also played a little trick here, her intentions were undoubtedly very sincere. Not only to help Chu Xuan complete the task, but also to help Ayanami get rid of her original fate - perhaps the new fate of becoming a follower of Chu Xuan is not very safe, but it is definitely much happier than her original fate!

“…, I understand, then decide.”

Perhaps feeling the strength and warmth coming from the black cat's hands, Ayanami nodded gently to her and finally agreed to Chu Xuan's request without any hesitation.

Chu Xuan walked two steps closer, raised his left hand to help Ayahari wipe away the tears, then took out the paper and pen that had been prepared from his military pocket, and explained to her very solemnly:

“Sign your name here and the contract is reached.

From then on, no matter whether you are poor, rich, good or bad, sick or healthy, I will always cherish you, comfort you, respect you, and protect you until the end of my life.”

PS: Although everyone should already know that the second update is uncertain, maybe it is possible to send it out at three or four o'clock... But we still have to say it, please don't wait for the second update and watch it tomorrow morning.

Let’s leave it to us alone if we stay up late.
