"At first, there was shock and sadness, but she recovered quickly," Hill said. "She asked us for help, and Coulson agreed. He thought she was excellent and had great potential."
"Coulson?"
Shen He was taken aback, not expecting Coulson to have his eye on Skye.
However, it was also what he expected. He looked at Black Bolt. "We also have an Inhuman here who hasn't undergone Terrigenesis. She's the daughter of Jiaying, who was lost for many years. Perhaps we can try to change her with familial affection."
Even though, judging from the original TV series, Skye's mother, Jiaying, was already an irredeemable villain.
In the end, she even wanted to kill her own daughter, and then she was killed by Skye's father.
But as Shen He had said, those were just things that happened in a future where they hadn't appeared.
Black Bolt's expression changed slightly, and then he nodded solemnly.
Since his brother's betrayal and death, he held a special sentiment towards the concept of family.
He was even preparing to have a child with his queen, Medusa, in an attempt to fill the void within him.
"Well then, you two can stay here for a while," Shen He said with a smile, standing up. "It's also a good opportunity for you to get to know the situation on Earth. I might be a bit busy in the coming days, but if you need anything, feel free to ask me."
"Thank you very much."
Black Bolt bowed and followed Hill as they left.
They now held considerable goodwill and respect for Chaldea. The two forces were in a honeymoon period.
After Black Bolt left, Shen He sat back down and continued to handle the documents on his tablet.
Although he had entrusted many things to Coulson, he couldn't completely shirk his responsibilities. He still had plenty of information to utilize in his mind.
For example, Skye's father is a doctor at an underground clinic, one of Tony's rivals will invent the Extremis Virus in the future, and there's a mage association established by a certain Sorcerer Supreme.
Now that there are enough people, it's possible to tentatively prepare for these things in advance. At the very least, if the Extremis Virus is utilized well, it can play a significant role.
He was tentatively laying out his plans, relying on the power he possessed, to see what kind of changes he could bring about in this Marvel world.
He didn't know how much time had passed when Jeanne's figure suddenly appeared behind Shen He.
"Master, you shouldn't work too hard, it's already lunchtime..."
"I don't want to either."
Shen He stood up helplessly, raised his hands to stretch, and as he put his hands down, he also put his arm around Jeanne's waist, pulling her closer to him.
Although Jeanne was still a little shy, she had gotten used to this kind of intimate gesture. She just cleared her throat with a blushing face:
"This won't do, Master, even with the enhancements, you're still human. You need to eat properly and get enough rest."
"I know, I won't push myself too hard."
Shen He nodded with a smile; it felt pretty good being nagged by his girlfriend.
"Speaking of which." Jeanne seemed to suddenly remember something, "Master plans to perform the next summoning in two days, right? Everyone's really looking forward to it. I wonder what kind of new companion will appear."
"That depends on whether I'm lucky enough."
Speaking of which, Shen He was a little nervous. In two days, he would have saved up forty Summoning Stones.
That meant he'd have accumulated a hundred Summoning Stones in total. Based on his last experience, there was a high chance a new instance would appear this time. Even if a new instance didn't appear, he still had to perform the summoning. It took time to cultivate new Servants. Judging by the construction speed of Stark Tower, it was only two to three months before Loki arrived on the battlefield.
"It'll be alright." Jeanne clasped Shen He's hand with her fingers.
He said to him, "There's still plenty of time."
"How about Jeanne lends me some luck?" Shen He's eyes drooped slightly.
Jeanne's body stiffened. If it were before, she would have run away shyly, but she had been working hard recently to learn how to be a qualified girlfriend. It seemed that always running away would disappoint her lover.
Finally, she gritted her teeth, trembled her eyelashes, and closed her eyes, her expression unmistakable.
—Why is my girlfriend so cute?
Shen He had a smile on his face. He actually just wanted to tease her. He simply followed Jeanne's waist with his fingers, watching her nervous and shy expression with satisfaction. He felt full even before he had eaten.
However, at this moment, a light cough suddenly came from the side, and Jeanne immediately turned into a spirit and ran away.
"Shiki." Shen He turned around helplessly, looking at Ryougi Shiki standing by the door, "It's very rude to speak up at this time."
"What's this?" Shiki sighed as she said, "I'm clearly the victim. Violet looks like she won't eat if you don't come, and she keeps urging me to call you with her eyes, and if I don't interrupt, you won't know how long it will take to come over."
Although Shen He was already used to Ryougi Shiki's masculine tone, he still felt a little embarrassed to be addressed like that directly.
Ever since he and Jeanne confirmed their relationship, he had indeed been showing off his affection at any time and place. Hmm, he needed to reflect.
"Speaking of which, Shiki, you seemed to have mentioned wanting to raise a kitten. Do you have any breeds in mind?" Shen He changed the subject as he walked.
Shiki shook her head. "No, and I'll pass on it. It wouldn't be good if I ended up killing it."
"You can rest assured about that." Shen He chuckled softly. "We'll all help, how could so many people let a kitten get hurt? How about a Persian Cat? I looked it up, Persian cats are gentle, responsive, quiet, and not clingy. Although they're a bit aloof, I don't think you'd want to hold it all day..."
Shiki didn't say anything, just followed along in silence as usual.
She had only mentioned it in passing while window shopping that day, but Shen He had obviously taken it to heart, but she wouldn't hate this kindness that she was already familiar with and used to.
Come to think of it, Shiki was also surprised that she would have the idea of raising a kitten in the first place.
This wasn't a thought belonging to the past Ryougi Shiki, but one that belonged solely to her, a self-generated emotion born from "her experiences and memories." This meant—
—She was gradually filling the emptiness in her heart with boring daily life and fragmented emotions.
And accompanying these things that were being filled into her heart were Shen He, Jeanne, Violet...
They held a different meaning for her, Ryougi Shiki was certain of this now.
"Shen He," Shiki suddenly called out, "Will you marry Jeanne in the future?"
"Cough, cough." Shen He choked, "Why do you suddenly ask such a thing?"
"I just feel that if you're lovers, you'll eventually reach that point, forming your own family."
Shiki's expression held a hint of confusion and doubt, and looking at her like that, Shen He couldn't help but laugh.
"That depends on Jeanne's wishes, but for me, things are already like a family as they are now."
In the end, Shen He gave an answer that wasn't really an answer.
If you don't get married, you're just a scumbag... Shiki thought to herself, but didn't say it out loud. She couldn't quite imagine how Shen He and Jeanne forming their own little family would change things between her and them.
