Chapter 1669 "Stagnant Water" Elvy
After Chu Nan completed his body rebirth and found a way to recover his contact with the outside world from Dong Fang, he immediately contacted the people he had the best relationship with and confirmed his safety.
However, when he contacted Elvy at that time, she did not answer his call. Moreover, after that, her attitude towards Chu Nan seemed to have changed 180 degrees.
Her connection with Chu Nan had become very few in the past few months. Even if she occasionally contacted him, Elvy's attitude was very cold. Although she did not seem to be treating a stranger, she did not have the intimate appearance she had in the past.
This surprised Chu Nan. At one point, he thought that he had unintentionally offended Elvy but did not know. However, when he probed through Chu Xiaoxi, he could not find anything.
When Chu Nan went to Earth to participate in the event, Elvy actually chose to return to Planet Macaw as if she was deliberately avoiding him. After that, she only contacted him twice in total and spoke very little in the process. The communication only lasted for a few minutes before it ended.
Chu Nan had been very busy recently and did not have the time to think too much. He only felt that this girl, Elvy, must be angry at him for something. He would be fine after she was done.
However, he did not expect that Elvy would actually come with General Jonotange.
After being stunned for a moment, Chu Nan nodded at Chu Zhongping on the virtual screen and replied.
"Alright, I'll be right back."
Then, he closed his personal terminal and instructed Lockar. His figure flashed and he flew out of the base.
The base was more than 2,000 kilometers away from Chu Nan's house, but this distance was naturally not a problem for the current him. He only took less than two minutes to fly home. With a glance, he saw more than ten combat airships with the symbol of the Federation Army floating above his farm. More combat airships were heard around the farm.
Seeing this posture, Chu Nan could not help but frown and fly in.
As soon as he entered the house, he heard laughter.
Looking carefully, Chu Zhongping and General Jonotange were sitting on either side. Sitting in the middle was Old Master Xio. Yu Fang was holding a plate of tea and fruits over. Clearly, she had just taken them out and prepared to entertain the guests.
At General Jonotange's seat, Elvy sat there with her head slightly lowered. She was so quiet that she did not seem to be her.
Seeing Chu Nan enter, Old Master Xio smiled and greeted him. However, General Jonotange stood up and welcomed him with an extremely enthusiastic attitude.
Compared to the first time Chu Nan saw him at his house, his attitude was worlds apart.
Chu Nan casually dealt with Chu Zhongping, Old Master Xio, and General Jonotange before turning around and looking at Elvy who still had her head lowered and was silent.
Something was wrong.
Something was very wrong.
Although he had sensed that something was wrong from Elvy's attitude towards him a few months ago, now that he had finally seen her in person, the feeling that something was wrong became even stronger in Chu Nan's heart.
With Elvy's personality, if Chu Nan had really angered her in some way, she should not be like this.
The current her seemed to have completely lost her previous vitality and arrogance. She was so quiet that she was like… like a puppet.
This adjective flashed through his mind and Chu Nan could not help but frown. He raised his hand and planned to answer General Jonotange's question. He forced a smile and asked, "About that… can you let me and Elvy go out and talk?"
General Jonotange was stunned. He glanced at Elvy and laughed.
"Of course! Elvy, go quickly. Didn't you always want to see your Brother Chu Nan?"
Hearing the title from General Jonotange, Chu Nan could not help but have goosebumps. He still forced a smile and nodded at Old Master Xio, Chu Zhongping, and Yu Fang before arriving in front of Elvy.
"Let's go, Elvy. Let's go out and walk around. I have something to tell you."
Elvy raised her head and glanced at Chu Nan.
Meeting her gaze, Chu Nan's heart trembled.
The current Elvy's eyes were almost without light. Not to mention losing her previous vitality, playfulness, and pride, even her face had lost any light. Her entire body… was like a pool of stagnant water.
Seeing her like this, Chu Nan no longer hesitated. He reached out and grabbed her arm before pulling her out of her seat.
"Let's go out for a while."
After saying that, Chu Nan pulled Elvy out of the house and ran out of the farm to the river beside it.
Due to Chu Nan pulling her all the way here, Elvy was a little out of breath. Two lumps of redness involuntarily appeared on her face, and her entire body looked much more energetic than before.
However, the way she looked at Chu Nan was still like a pool of stagnant water. As he watched, he suddenly felt an inexplicable anger.
"Hey, Elvy, what's wrong with you?" Chu Nan frowned and asked, "Why did you become like this? Tell me, did something happen?"
Elvy looked at Chu Nan and did not say a word.
Chu Nan frowned. He was not afraid that Elvy would be angry at him, but afraid that she would not say anything.
If he did not even know why she had become like this, it was even more impossible to resolve.
His powerful A.I.-like brain quickly swept through all kinds of possible situations. Suddenly, a terrifying situation flashed past, causing Chu Nan's entire body to involuntarily tremble. He suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Elvy's hand.
"Hey, Elvy, was it… were you bullied by someone? Tell me, if anyone bullies you, I'll definitely avenge you and teach that guy a lesson! Have you forgotten? I'm a Star-Grade Martial Artist now. There's no one in the entire Milky Way I don't dare to teach a lesson to. As long as you tell me who bullied you, no matter who he is, I'll make him pay the price!"
In the last sentence, Chu Nan almost gritted his teeth and his tone revealed intense hatred.
He was not joking.
Although Elvy was not related to him by blood, he had long treated her as one of his closest people. In his heart, her and Chu Xiaoxi's status would not be much different.
If someone really did something to Elvy, Chu Nan was certain that he would pay any price to let that person receive the punishment he deserved.
Moreover, he had the ability.
The expression on Elvy's face finally moved, and a trace of light appeared in her eyes.
Chu Nan was immediately overjoyed when he saw this change. He raised his hands and pressed down on Elvy's shoulder. He looked into her eyes and said extremely seriously, "I'm not joking. Elvy, if anyone dares to bully you, I'll definitely teach that person a lesson. Don't forget that you've always called me Brother Chu Nan."
Hearing the term "Brother Chu Nan", the expression on Elvy's face finally changed clearly. The stagnant water in her eyes suddenly rippled. She looked at Chu Nan in a daze for a moment before suddenly laughing.
This smile was immediately as if the ice had been unsealed. A happy and brilliant smile suddenly appeared on her expressionless face like a flower blooming. Her entire body seemed to have been injected with endless vitality as if she had come alive at that moment.
"Ha, haha… Chu Nan… Brother Chu Nan, I… I knew it. You… you must have thought wrongly…"
Elvy seemed to be unable to control her laughter at all. From the beginning, she could not stop. Towards the end, she even bent down and hugged her stomach, laughing until she squatted down.
Chu Nan helplessly rolled his eyes and heaved a sigh of relief.
As long as Elvy could laugh, it meant that she had definitely not experienced the worst situation as Chu Nan had thought.
Chu Nan squatted down and his gaze was on par with Elvy.
"Hey, are you done laughing? If you're done laughing, tell me what happened? Why are you unwilling to contact me during this period of time? Why are you always so cold to me? Why…"
Elvy suddenly raised her head and stopped laughing before looking at Chu Nan with an extremely serious expression.
"Brother Chu Nan, will you marry me?"
