The Illusion-Scale Flash Shuttle switched into aerial mode.
Lin Fei sat in the middle, both hands gripping the handlebars.
Leona hugged him from behind.
In front of him sat Qiangwei.
At this moment, Qiangwei's face carried a faint blush—Lin Fei was simply sitting far too close to her.
Although she had hugged him before when sitting behind him, that was different.
This time, it was Lin Fei holding her.
The feeling was completely different.
Still, the constant rush of air slapping against her face, along with the breathtaking sight of flying through the clouds, gradually made her forget about all that.
She began to enjoy the scenery in the sky and below.
"Where are we going now?" she asked.
"Of course we're going shopping for pretty clothes!" Leona said excitedly.
In her mind, she was already imagining countless beautiful dresses and outfits.
"This goddess has waited a long time for this."
"Last time I came, I didn't even get to shop before leaving. This time, I'm definitely buying enough!"
"Lin Fei, if there's anything you want, just buy it too. It's not like we're paying anyway."
Leona said this with extravagant confidence.
Qiangwei, meanwhile, was speechless.
Technically, they weren't the ones paying—but saying it so bluntly, right in front of her, was still a bit much.
Well…
She could apply for reimbursement later, anyway.
But judging by Leona's barely contained excitement before they'd even arrived, once they entered the shops and she went all out—
Qiangwei wasn't even sure her card limit would survive.
Forget it. No point thinking about it now.
If it wasn't enough, she'd just go ask Old Du.
After entering Giant Gorge City, they stopped riding the Illusion-Scale Flash Shuttle—traffic rules still had to be followed, after all.
Besides, the landing spot Lin Fei chose wasn't far from the clothing store Qiangwei had recommended.
This was a commercial street.
Since it was the weekend, it was packed with people.
Lin Fei and the others immediately drew a lot of attention.
After all, Lin Fei was handsome.
Leona and Qiangwei—one lively and flamboyant, the other cool and aloof—both had looks that surpassed even female celebrities.
A handsome man flanked by two stunning women—it was impossible not to attract stares.
Many men looked at Lin Fei with expressions of envy, jealousy, and hatred.
A redhead actually walking around with two goddess-tier women?
It was practically deserving of divine punishment!
"Looks like my beauty is making you a target of hostility," Leona said smugly.
"Handsome, outstanding men are always envied. That's perfectly normal," Lin Fei replied, completely lacking any sense of being disliked—if anything, he seemed proud.
Qiangwei: "..."
Enough already.
Only now did she finally understand—
No wonder Lin Fei and this Sun Goddess got along so well after knowing each other for such a short time.
They were the same type.
Totally on the same wavelength.
She couldn't help covering her face, wanting to put some distance between herself and these two.
"Qiangwei, what's wrong?" Lin Fei asked.
"Don't worry. Even though the women on this street can't compare to this goddess, you're still… barely passable."
Qiangwei had no interest in responding to this narcissistic goddess.
She looked ahead and noticed someone.
"Hey, there's actually someone who can compare to you."
"Huh?" Leona followed Qiangwei's gaze.
"There really is one?"
It was a policewoman—wearing a uniform, her hair tied into a simple ponytail, looking sharp and capable.
In terms of looks and figure, she really did barely measure up to this Sun Goddess.
"Oh, so it's Qilin," Lin Fei said, having noticed her too.
He had quite a deep impression of Qilin.
Although Police Officer Qilin was indeed beautiful—often said to be the only woman on Blue Star whose looks could rival that of an angel—
When it came purely to looks and figure, she still wasn't quite on the level of Su Xiaoli or Qiangwei.
What truly made her unforgettable, however, was—
In the original story, Qilin was attacked by Taotie scouts on the road to the airport, shot clean through the chest in a famous scene.
Along with Liu Chuang and Ge Xiaolun's awakening of their super genes, it became one of the most iconic moments.
It was also the true beginning of the main plot.
Judging by the timeline, the Taotie's probing attack should be happening within the next couple of days.
Because of Lin Fei's appearance, Liu Chuang and Ge Xiaolun's "famous scene" was definitely gone.
The only question was whether Qilin would still end up reenacting her moment.
As for warning her—
If he warned the angels, it might work, since their queen would take action once informed.
But Qilin? She definitely wouldn't believe him.
And even if she got shot, she wouldn't die anyway.
Of course—
If he could arrive in time to save her, he definitely would.
He wouldn't deliberately let her nearly die just to awaken her super gene.
Anyone who could do that was simply not right in the head.
"Lin Fei, stop staring. She's already gone," Leona said.
"Wouldn't you rather look at this goddess? Later I'll try on clothes—guaranteed eye candy."
Leona put one hand on her hip and waved the other in front of Lin Fei's eyes.
Lin Fei pressed a finger to his forehead, looking serious.
"Leona, you've misunderstood."
"I'm not the kind of man who freezes at the sight of a pretty woman."
"Oh? Then why were you staring for so long just now?" Leona crossed her arms skeptically.
"That's because I was thinking about a problem."
"What problem?"
"How many seconds does it take for a bullet to pierce through the chest."
"Tch—"
Leona instantly lost interest.
From his expression, she'd thought it was something fascinating.
"Forget it, forget it. Let's hurry up."
As she spoke, she grabbed Lin Fei and Qiangwei and pulled them toward a clothing store whose sign was already visible ahead.
"Wow!"
Through the transparent glass windows, they could see the dazzling array of gorgeous dresses inside.
Leona's eyes sparkled—it was practically heaven to her.
"Miss, you're so beautiful—you look even more like a goddess than TV celebrities," the sales assistant said.
"Haha, you've got good taste."
"Recommend a few dresses that suit this goddess's temperament."
The sales assistant was delighted—today's sales were looking very promising.
She quickly began recommending all kinds of outfits to Leona.
Another sales assistant looked toward Qiangwei, who had entered with Lin Fei.
Seeing that the group was together, she naturally assumed Qiangwei would also be buying clothes.
So she enthusiastically began recommending outfits to Qiangwei as well.
