My girlfriend is a Kryptonian
Chapter 146: Gwen's Coming of Age Ceremony
After visiting the underwater tunnel safely, the two walked out of the tunnel exit one after the other. The sea breeze blew the woman's long black hair slightly onto the boy's face.
His face was itchy, accompanied by the scent of violets.
Xi Nian still lowered his head slightly, looking a little absent-minded, and continued to walk forward like a child, held by Diana's hand.
Diana seemed to know what Xi Nian was thinking, looked back at him, and whispered: "Are you still thinking about the little episode just now?"
Xi Nian nodded, raised his eyes, and a ray of light flashed in his eyes: "Maybe... my classmate was not wrong."
After all. He really saw a shark with hands and feet!
Speaking of which.
Since he left the island country where Starro was imprisoned last time, he has never seen anything about the surviving members of the X-Force anywhere else, even on TV and newspapers.
What is their follow-up?
Was he re-imprisoned in the Dream Prison specially built for serious criminals, or was he sent to Arkham Asylum in Gotham City for psychiatric treatment, or did he take the opportunity to escape the control of the US high-level officials and lurk in a dark corner of the world.
Although they were the most vicious criminals in the world, this was the result of Xi Nian's three-in-one, so he had to care.
"I'll take care of everything."
Diana said, and at the same time, she gently pinched the palm of the boy's hand, and her slender white fingers were immersed in warmth.
She was stunned for a moment, but then she realized it.
The two of them had basically never let go of each other's hands since they got on the car. It's just that Xi Nian held her hand, and she took the initiative to hold his hand, as if she had become accustomed to intimate physical contact.
This is outside the house.
Although many parents also pulled their own children, Diana's heart still trembled slightly.
"Auntie..." Xi Nian was about to continue discussing with Diana, but outside the exit of the undersea tunnel, a familiar figure, one big and one small, came forward.
"Hey, Miss Diana! Little Xi Nian!" Mary Jane waved her arms enthusiastically and walked over with Gwen.
"Miss Diana, good afternoon... I'm glad you can come to visit the museum together!"
Gwen seemed a little reserved in front of Diana. She was wearing a black uniform and a small dress, and had a quiet temperament like a lady from a noble family. She bowed and greeted her in a proper manner.
"Gwen, you are not like this usually..." Xi Nian muttered, and then saw Gwen secretly glaring at him, so he stopped talking.
"Miss Jane, long time no see."
"Gwen, you have grown up a lot, and you look more and more beautiful." Diana smiled at the corners of her mouth, nodded to the mother and daughter one after another, and responded politely and elegantly.
Gwen reached out to cover her slightly hot cheeks, her eyes full of joy, as if she valued Diana's recognition very much.
"I always thought I took good care of myself, but compared with you, I really feel that I am getting worse every year." Mary Jane even stepped forward and took Diana's hand, saying with emotion.
"No, you still look very young." Diana smiled slightly.
Mary Jane sighed: "You see, I have wrinkles on my face, but they are not obvious with makeup. Unlike you, your skin is as bright and clear as a girl in her twenties."
"Miss Diana, isn't she only in her twenties?"
Deputy instructor Felicia, who was passing by, stopped and couldn't help joining the conversation. She looked at Diana with curiosity: "She should be only two or three years older than me, right?"
"Miss Felicia, you don't know that. Miss Diana is at least..." Mary Jane stopped talking in time, covered her mouth with her hand, and said apologetically: "Sorry, I always hate people discussing age, and now I almost got caught."
"It's okay."
Diana shook her head gently, let go of Xi Nian's hand without leaving a trace, and gently patted the back of his hand and said: "You and Gwen should go for a walk nearby first, don't go too far."
"Okay?" Gwen's eyes lit up, and she looked at Xi Nian next to her.
"Go ahead. People of the same age have more topics to talk about together." Mary Jane seemed to suddenly remember something and said to Xi Nian: "By the way, little Xi Nian. Remember to come to my house this Sunday and have dinner together."
This Sunday?
Xi Nian was stunned for a moment and looked at Gwen. The two had just made an appointment for Saturday yesterday.
Gwen was also a little puzzled and asked curiously: "Mom, why does it have to be Sunday?"
Mary Jane smiled and said: "Little fool, have you forgotten? This Sunday is your birthday, your 17-year-old coming-of-age ceremony! Or do you not plan to let little Xi Nian come to your coming-of-age ceremony."
"Oh my God, I almost forgot!"
Gwen was stunned and slapped her forehead suddenly, realizing that she was embarrassed, and in front of Xi Nian's family and the deputy instructor.
Seeing Xi Nian's mouth curled up, she almost laughed out loud. Gwen blushed immediately, stretched out her hand and pulled him out.
"That... Auntie, I'll go out for a walk first." Xi Nian turned around and said hurriedly.
"Go ahead, don't go too far."
Diana smiled and nodded, and continued to talk with Mary Jane and Felicia.
...
The reception hall on the second floor of the Marine Research Museum.
Gwen pulled Xi Nian to the railing of the hall, and looking out through the French windows, they could see the fishing dock and the vast blue ocean.
Noon was almost over, the sun was tilted to the west, and the sea was sparkling.
"Please, forget what happened just now!" Gwen bit her lip, her short hair shook like a rattle, and she let out an imperceptible cry: "Oh my God, I actually... in front of your aunt..."
"Your careless look is actually quite cute." Xi Nian covered her mouth, patted her shoulder, and said sincerely: "Don't worry, my aunt won't lower your evaluation score because of this."
"Damn it, laugh if you want to!"
Gwen raised her small pink fist angrily, and only Xi Nian knew that this fist was not a joke.
Gwen suddenly remembered something and said worriedly, "Oh no, you have already made an appointment with Kara to visit her cousin on Sunday."
Xi Nian pondered for a moment: "I will explain it to her tomorrow."
Gwen shook her head and said firmly: "I made a mistake here, so I will explain it. If possible, see if she is willing to change it to Saturday."
"All right."
Xi Nian agreed. In his opinion, Gwen is his brother, and it doesn't matter who explains it.
"I didn't expect that you will be seventeen years old soon."
Xi Nian looked at the beautiful girl in front of him. He didn't know his date of birth, so he never celebrated his birthday.
The special one was Christmas, because that night his aunt picked him up.
"My coming-of-age gift, you must prepare a good gift." Gwen put her hands on her back and squeezed them together, slightly pushing forward her well-developed chest, very close to Xi Nian's body.
She lifted her short, shiny golden hair and blinked her eyes at him, saying meaningfully, "When the time comes, I will ask for it together with the previous compensation!"
"Of course!"
Xi Nian agreed without thinking too much.
