Chapter 46: Screwed
When Ade woke up the sky was already bright. He dazedly touched the phone on his bed and looked at the time, it was just ten o'clock. This is the most peaceful sleep he has had in so many days, and he was a bit reluctant to get up so early. He tightened the pillow in his arms, decided to daze a little longer. By the way, C.C.'s pillow is quite comfortable.
Before he fell asleep again, he thought to himself that he would never go out again if he didn't have to. In the future, it is good to hold on to Loran's thighs and stay on the moon for life.
It was nearly twelve o'clock when Ade got up from bed reluctantly. He casually put a piece of clothing on his body, with sleepy eyes went into the bathroom, and began to wash up. But why are there three toothbrushes? Whose pink one is this? The cold water on his face finally made him wake up a little, then he then remembered that there seems to be an extra person in the house.
It seems a bit impolite to leave the guest at home and sleep by himself until noon. After washing up, Ade walked slightly awkwardly towards the living room and heard a sound coming from the kitchen. Hmm, was she too hungry that she decided to find something to eat on her own?
"Ade-san, you're finally up? Please wait a moment, lunch will be ready soon." The pink-haired girl with her back to him was busy with something in the kitchen, "I wanted to call you up for breakfast, but seeing Ade-san sleeping so soundly, I kind of couldn't bear to call you up."
Wait, what is this situation? What is this? Transmigration again after sleep?
"The refrigerator is full of nutritional supplements, and the cabinet over there is full of takeaway advertisements. Is this how Ade-san usually settles your diet?" The young lady still kept talking, "It's not a healthy lifestyle. I used to be very busy at work, but I eat well at every meal."
C.C. seems to be able to cook, but hardly ever, and he himself's even lazier, so long live the supplements. But that's not the problem, "I don't remember there being anything left to eat at home. Lacus, well, where did the ingredients come from?"
"I bought them online, I placed an order last night, and they were delivered early in the morning, and I also bought some supplies that I must live with by the way." Lacus finally began to serve dishes, "By the way, I borrowed Ade-san's computer without greeting. Sorry, but I definitely did not browse any file without permission. I was almost recognized by the delivery man, is my hair too conspicuous?"
Ade looked at the young girl busy putting food on the table, and he hurriedly went forward to help. But how do I persuade her to live in the hotel after a while?
"Please make sure to tell me the real feedback, and don't say things like 'it's really delicious' just to take care of my emotions." Lacus looked at him apprehensively, "In the past, my father and I were both very busy at work and rarely had time to eat together. I always thought of surprising my father when I secretly learned to cook well, but I don't have the chance anymore. Ade-san is the first person to try my handmade cooking, so please do tell me what you think."
You are not participating in some cooking talent show, cooking a meal does not need such a sensational backstory
Ade chewed the food in his mouth and gave his thoughts honestly, "Surprisingly okay? I thought big stars would have terrible cooking."
They didn't talk much during the meal, and after the meal, Ade took the initiative to clean up the dishes. It's not polite to let the guest do it. After the meal, the two sat back at the table. Ade hardened his heart and decided to have a good talk with her. After all, they are not in love, so it's better to find another place for her to live.
Besides, although C.C. seems quite cold, if her bed is moved by others, she surely will blow up.
"So it's true that you still want to kick me out?" Before he could organize his words, Lacus spoke up first, "Even though I've tried hard to make myself more valuable, it's still not enough, right? To Mr. Ade, my 'trouble' attribute still far outweighs my 'value', so he'd rather have me move out and live alone, is that right?"
"No, it's not that I find you troublesome. I wouldn't have taken you back to the moon in the first place if I was afraid of trouble." Ade carefully weighed his words, he didn't want to make his words sound hurtful, after all, he had already made a similar mistake, and the mind of a young girl is actually very sensitive, "It's just that it's not quite appropriate to live in an unmarried man's home, right? I will help you find a place close to my house, and it will be convenient if we want to meet."
"Ade-san knows that I don't care about that, so why are you using such flimsy reasons?" Lacus indicated C.C.'s room with her eyes, "Is that Ade-san's cohabitant's room? Is it a girl?"
It's definitely because Alice talked too much yesterday!
"Sorry, I only know that Ade-san doesn't officially announce who he's dating, and didn't know that you were living with someone." Lacus showed a sad smile, "It must be a very pretty girl, right? After all, her charm is so great that I, a big star, can't compete with it. I was quite confident in myself before. Are she and Ade-san already pledging to marry?"
This question made him freeze for a moment, what kind of relationship did he have with C.C.? Contractor? Collaborator? Or was it considered lovers?
"I see." Lacus quietly sighed in relief, "I will not cause trouble in Ade-san's life, if that lady comes back, you can tell me in advance, and I will leave immediately. I can guarantee that I won't leave traces of my life behind."
"It's not about that." Doesn't it make it like he is carrying on a clandestine love affair? "The problem is-"
"What's the problem? I just want to find myself a place to stay, is it too much to ask?" The young girl looked a little agitated and raised her voice quite a bit, "Even just once, can you please put yourself in my shoes and think about my situation?"
What does that mean?
"I wonder if Mr. Ade has ever had a similar experience, coming alone to a completely unknown place, unable to return to the previous environment, without any familiar people or things around, only an endless sense of loneliness and fear." Lacus's eyes are a little empty, "This time, in the darkness I find the only light, so I want to fight everything to grab it hard. Can't I?"
Ah, I understand, of course, I understand. After transmigrating into this world, I was like that. In this psychotic-like world, I was looking for the only light
"I lost my last family member not long ago, I lost my beloved country, and went from being the beloved Miss Lacus to being a wanted traitor. People in my country want to kill me, people on earth want to possess me, and there is no place for me in this big, big world." Lacus looked straight into the depths of his pupils, "At this time, there was one man who saved me from the devil's den. He came forward and said he believed in me, said he would protect me, said he would give me a small place to rest on the moon."
""
"I'm a politician, I admit it. But I'm also a girl who gets lonely, who gets scared, who gets insecure. Is it a luxury to ask for the only hope I've managed to grab, the only person I've found to rely on to be a little closer to me?"
Sigh. Is Lacus being too eloquent, or am I being too easy to be moved
The young girl seems to have finished venting and regained her composure, "Please forgive me if I brought a little bit of acting with my excitement just now. I found that Ade-san would be overwhelmed if I did that, so I could not help but do so. But everything I said is true. If you don't believe it, please use your almighty NT ability to verify it."
"Do you have some strange misunderstanding about NT? It's not such a convenient thing." Ade held his forehead with some headache, "NT will only be extremely sensitive to each other, and will only have a very vague sense when it comes to non-NT. It can't be used as a lie detector as you think."
"Then Ade-san keep saying believe me ?"
"I do not have the ability to distinguish the truth of each of your words, and it is too tiring to do so, so to be lazy, I simply always believe you." Ade sighed, "I believe everything you just said, so I'm convinced by you. You can stay in my room until the other owner of this house returns."
"Thank you, Mr. Ade. Thank you for letting me stay, and thank you for believing in me!" Lacus folded her hands and smiled brightly, "I still need some household items and some clothes, shall we go shopping together this afternoon?"
But before that, Ade tried to contact Loran - Harry had given him Loran's contact information before. Although Char would not be bored enough to ask the moon to extradite Lacus to ZAFT, he still has to talk to Loran and thank him for his previous speech by the way.
Harry told him that Loran already knew he was back, but was busy today, and would take the initiative to contact him tomorrow. In addition, Loran also gave Ade a message, "Deal with the girl you bought back yourself." So does everyone on the moon already know it?
In the afternoon, Ade took Lacus out to shop. Although he thought online shopping would be fine, Lacus insisted that they must buy clothes in the shops. This point is quite similar to C.C., or is it that girls are all like this?
On the way, Lacus was not recognized, but Ade was recognized several times. He then remembered that he is also a public figure on TV, but the good thing is that he has never been in the gossip news, and those who recognize him are kindly greeting him. Slightly regretful that no one asked him for an autograph.
Lacus acted happily and treated herself like a clothes rack, trying on all kinds of clothes, but only bought a few pieces in the end. Ade felt embarrassed looking at the salesclerk, so he also bought some clothes for her. Anyway, Lacus now lives in his own room, and his own closet was very empty, so it does not matter.
After accompanying Lacus all day, Ade returned home exhausted and collapsed on the sofa, only the young girl was still in good spirits and cooking dinner. It feels good to have a hot meal instead of ordering takeout and drinking supplements, right?
After dinner, the girl found that he was very tired, so she did not pester him to talk, but went back to her room to rest. Ade lay on the bed, thinking that it would be better to talk to C.C. about it, but how to say it? Well, let me take my time and think about it.
The next morning, Ade, whose biological clock was back to normal, woke up on time. After coming to the living room, he rubbed his eyes incredulously because he saw someone talking with Lacus in his living room. Am I still dreaming?
"Your Highness Loran?!"
"Dr. Adrien, sorry to bother you so early." Loran stood up and greeted him, "There's no need to rush, take your time. Miss Lacus is very considerate in her hospitality."
Ade cleaned himself up as fast as he could and was ready to follow Loran, but Loran insisted on having breakfast at his house, which was of course made by Lacus.
After the meal, Ade got into Loran's car, and it turned out that Harry had been waiting outside in the car.
"Miss Lacus is a very nice person. I think those wanted by PLANT must have inside information." Loran smiled kindly at Ade, "I think Dr. Adrien did the right thing this time."
"Thank you, Your Highness. Thank you for giving a helping hand earlier." Ade politely saluted, "Is something wrong? Why in such a hurry?"
"Something was indeed something wrong, and I'm afraid it's something that only you can resolve." Loran grimaced, "TurnA's system halted."
