Chapter 023 Will you marry me!
"That's great. I'm happy to be friends with you, but excuse me, being proposed to in this situation will make people feel that there are ulterior motives." Su Ming said .
Flora: "I am serious. After a night of thinking, I am sure that my feelings for you are serious. I have been receiving top-secret training from my family since I was a child. I don't even have any friends, and I am not good at socializing between men and women.
But as a member of the Osborn family, reproducing offspring is an unavoidable mission and responsibility, which makes me feel conflicted.
I simply cannot imagine living with a man for a long time and intimacy, and I would rather be alone than live with anyone else.
I once tried to change my strange personality by participating in social activities, but failed.
Although it may be rude to say that, I feel that the people around me are not interesting at all. They feel mediocre and boring. People like Lance cannot attract me, but out of politeness I have to respond to their boring topics.
But you are different...you are special to me, I am sure of it!"
Flora looked into Su Ming's eyes. His eyes were so calm that she was scared.
This gave her an illusion, as if her confession was a grain of sand thrown into the sea, not even causing a ripple in the other person's heart.
Su Ming looked at the other person quietly, and he once again felt the practicality of super intuition.
If it were anyone else, it would be impossible not to be moved by Flora's confession.
Flora had a first-rate family background, a good education, and top-notch looks and talents. She was now well-known. Marrying her meant success in the secular sense. It could be said that she satisfied the fantasies of many men—beautiful, powerful, and noble.
So, even if there are many far-fetched reasons in Flora's confession, as long as you are a man, you will have an expectation: what if she really falls in love with me at first sight?
Unfortunately, Su Ming would not have such a fluke mentality. His super intuition prevented him from having such an illusion. He knew very clearly that Flora was lying.
She wanted to get something from him through marriage.
It was true that she wanted to get married, but it was false that she liked him.
Flora did have a crush on me, but that crush was half utilitarian and far from the point of wanting to spend the rest of her life with me, so...what did she want from me?
Su Ming didn't think he was special. As a time traveler, he had nothing, no background, no connections, and his strength was not strong at all.
Thinking of this, Su Ming's thoughts suddenly stopped, and he felt as if he had thought of something.
Intuition was like a silver lightning that pierced through the fog in Su Ming's mind, allowing him to glimpse the truth.
He seemed to have caught the thread!
That's right, Flora longs for his power!
Although he is weak, others do not think so. The Bureau believes that he killed the Subway Stalker, and Flora also thought that he saved her.
If you think about it carefully, you can find that in the other dimension, Flora's attitude was not so gentle, but rather a little arrogant.
But since he left the alien space, Flora's attitude towards him has changed 180 degrees.
She first invited him to dinner on the pretext of repaying him, and when they were about to say goodbye that day, she also made an appointment with him to visit Dongyang Island together the next day.
All signs indicate that Flora is deliberately trying to get closer to him and wants to maintain a good interpersonal relationship with him.
But is marriage necessary to maintain a good relationship?
Marriage can indeed serve as a bond of alliance, but isn't it too high a price to pay to win him over at the cost of your body?
In addition, the timing of Flora's proposal was also very suspicious. Her proposal was too sudden, and it didn't seem premeditated, but rather like a spur-of-the-moment decision.
"Su Ming, if you have some feelings for me, then why don't we try dating first? Forget about the proposal just now. I was too impulsive."
Flora's words interrupted Su Ming's thinking, and he had to make a decision immediately.
Agree...or not?
"Let me think about it."
Flora nodded vigorously, trying to show that she understood, but even so, she couldn't hide the disappointment in her eyes.
"It's okay, if you don't want to, we can just be ordinary friends!"
"I believe we will become good friends." Su Ming smiled, "I won't take what you just said to heart. I'm leaving first. I plan to complete the registration with the Investigation Bureau today."
"Well, I'll take you there."
Flora walked him to the door and they said goodbye.
Su Ming contacted Sylvie and learned the address of the Supernatural Investigation Bureau from her.
On the way to the Investigation Bureau, Su Ming was still thinking about Flora.
"Xiaoyu, what do you think?" Su Ming asked.
Xia Xiaoyu frowned: "What are you looking at?"
"My opinion on Flora proposing to me."
"I think there's absolutely no need for you to accept her proposal."
"Why?"
Xia Xiaoyu frowned and began to think seriously and analyze calmly.
"You've only known her for a few days, so there's no way you could have any feelings for her. If you're attracted to her, it only means you're attracted to her because of her beauty.
Flora's advantages are her appearance, family background, wealth and powerful supernatural powers.
If you are interested in her because of these points, then I don't think you need to agree to her. I have what she has, and I also have what she doesn't have. It would be better for you to marry me than to marry her.
Besides... that woman seems to have other intentions. She is no match for me, right?"
Su Ming glanced at the other person and said, "Be serious, okay?"
"Ah, didn't I flirt with you?" Xia Xiaoyu pretended to be surprised.
"I'm immune to this level of dirty talk." Su Ming said expressionlessly.
"Well...actually I think Flora is hiding her true purpose."
"I think so too... What do you think her purpose is?"
"I don't know, but I can help you monitor her." Xia Xiaoyu said.
“Yes!”
Su Ming clapped his hands and suddenly realized.
He almost forgot that he still had Xia Xiaoyu.
Except him, no one can see Xia Xiaoyu, she is the best monitor!
"But I'm sorry to bother you for help all the time." Su Ming scratched his head.
"Friends should help each other. And I'm actually the winner, because there are many people in this world who can help you, but you're the only one who can help me. I'm accumulating favors for the future! So don't be embarrassed... You'll have to pay me back in the future."
Xia Xiaoyu stretched out her fist and punched Su Ming's arm.
"But I don't want to monitor her for now. Aren't you going to investigate Bureau 7? I'm very familiar with investigating Bureau 7 and can be your tour guide. The Minister won't explain it to you in such detail like I do."
"minister?"
"Oh, it's Sylvie. The members of the Special Attack Department all call her the Minister, so I'm used to calling her the Minister too.
I have always been very idle, so when I am bored, I always run around with the people from the Special Attack Department.
I usually call them by nicknames, like Minister , Captain, etc. This makes me feel like I belong.”
Su Ming frowned and asked in confusion: "They shouldn't be able to see you, right?"
"Yeah, but I can pretend that they can see me." Xia Xiaoyu said with a smile.
