What an extrovert! Pismann was really grateful for Xia Lin's magnanimity. If it were Carolon, things might have been...
Although Pismann glared at Lan several times, Lan completely ignored it. Looking at Xia Lin eagerly, Lan said, "Hey, Your Majesty the Queen, I like you so much. Can we be friends?"
It was really amazing. Xia Lin looked at Lan with great interest. He had been in this world for quite a while and had met all kinds of people. Apart from Carolon's family, others either respected him, loved him, hated him (the people from enemy countries), or were just curious about him. Lan was the first one who proposed to be his friend. What an interesting young man!
Xia Lin waved his hand to stop Pismann from hitting Lan and said, "Sure. To be honest, I have relatives, lovers, teachers, and classmates, but I've never had a real friend."
Hearing this, Lan got even more excited. He stood up and jumped a few times in excitement. "Great! So I'm Your Majesty the Queen's first friend! I'm so lucky! Your Majesty the Queen, can I come and play with you in the future?"
Xia Lin nodded. "Yes, but before you come to me, you need to send me a message first, because sometimes I may not have the time."
Lan nodded and raised his hand vigorously. "I'm going out now. Uncle and Your Majesty the Queen, bye!"
Watching Lan bounce away, Pismann let out a motherly sigh. "Your Majesty the Queen, I'm sorry you had to see this. This kid is always so irresponsible."
Xia Lin shook his head. "Teacher, you don't need to mind at all. I actually think Lan's lively and cheerful personality is great. I like his character."
Pismann glanced at Xia Lin. Seeing that Xia Lin really liked Lan and wasn't just saying it to give him face, he felt relieved. However, he still had to talk to Lan later and tell him to be more careful. Although the Queen was kind and didn't mind, if the Emperor saw Lan treating the Queen in such a way, he would probably get angry!
After chatting for a while longer, Xia Lin said his goodbyes and left. When he returned to the palace, a servant came and said that Carolon was looking for him.
Xia Lin opened his handheld optical brain and, sure enough, Carolon had sent him several messages. But he had muted the optical brain while chatting with Pismann. He wondered what important thing Carolon wanted to say. Thinking this way, Xia Lin quickened his pace.
When he arrived at Carolon's office, Carolon was working seriously. Seeing Xia Lin come in, he waved and motioned for Xia Lin to sit beside him.
Xia Lin and Carolon squeezed onto one chair. Xia Lin asked him, "Carolon, why did you call me here?" The system hadn't given him any tasks, so it shouldn't be that someone had made a mistake and Carolon wanted to punish them. No, Xia Lin, you should trust Carolon. He had changed a lot. You couldn't always think that he wanted to kill people and solve problems violently like before!
Carolon turned off the optical brain, hugged Xia Lin, and turned him around so that Xia Lin straddled his lap. This posture was very ambiguous and successfully made Xia Lin blush. "Carolon, what... what are you doing?"
Carolon smiled gently and charmingly, which made Xia Lin stunned for a moment. Xia Lin complained in his heart: Humph, using his good looks again! But Carolon was really, really good-looking, so he always fell for it.
"Just tell me what you want to say quickly." Xia Lin buried his head in Carolon's arms coquettishly.
