Chapter 77
What was going on?
Was Andrius having lunch with a general?
It seemed like the general treated him with respect and courtesy as well.
Was Rainbow mistaken?
She could not believe her eyes, so she rubbed them, but she heard Andrius saying, “Stop rubbing your eyes. You are not hallucinating.”
Rainbow looked excited and awkward at the same time. “You, me. I… You…”
“What?” Andrius pointed at Noir and introduced him, “He’s
Noir.”
Andrius then explained, “This is Rainbow Conery, Luna’s cousin. She’s here to study, and she seems to be a military otaku.”
“Hi! Hi! Nice to meet you!”
When Noir heard Rainbow was a military otaku, he got up and saluted her formally before he stretched his hand out for a
handshake.
Rainbow was thrilled. She shook his hand lightly because her hand was shaking.
“Join us.” Noir pulled the chair beside Andrius and signaled
Rainbow to sit down.
Rainbow was flattered. She looked at Noir excitedly, “I… Can I really sit down and have lunch with you?”
Noir nodded. “Of course. It’s just lunch.’

Then, Noir called the waiter to bring another set of cutlery.
Rainbow sat down. Everything happened so quickly, and it felt surreal.
When Garren saw what happened, he came over furtively. The general he mentioned was a bluff, but Noir was a real soldier of high ranks.
If he could get to know Noir, he would no longer need to lie or bluff to Rainbow, and he could do whatever he wanted in the future.
“Uhm…” Garren gulped. He asked cautiously, “I’m Rainbow’s classmate, Garren Greenhill. Can I join you guys…”
“Go away!” Noir bellowed before he could finish.
Noir’s voice frightened him, but he did not want to give up just yet. He looked at Noir and explained, “It’s just lunch. It’s nothing…”
“Are you deaf?”
Noir grunted. He grabbed Garren’s wrist and dragged him out of the hotel before tossing him onto the road.
The little fiasco ended with Garren out of the scene.
Rainbow enjoyed lunch with Noir and Andrius. She asked Noir a lot of questions, and as long as they were not confidential secrets, Noir answered all of them with ease.
In addition to his identity as a Lycantroop, he was eloquent. He boasted a lot about his military adventures, and the stories were endless.
Rainbow was so intoxicated that she could not stop thinking about it.
It was until both Noir and Andrius finished eating that
Rainbow regained her senses and was embarrassed by her infatuation.
When Noir went to get the bill, Rainbow hugged Andrius’ arm and asked, “Andrius, my dear brother-in- law, can I get a picture with him?”
She had heard of Andrius and Luna’s relationship.
At first, she had no good impression of this brother-in-law of hers, but after she found out he was close with Noir, she started to look at him differently and even called him brother- in-law wholeheartedly.
Andrius was shocked. He had never acknowledged the
marriage with Luna before, but since Rainbow called him brother-in-law, it would be awkward if he denied the girl’s request.
Therefore, he said, “Sure. I’ll ask him.”
After Noir came back, he saw Andrius and Rainbow chatting
away.
He asked out of curiosity, “What are you guys talking about?”
Andrius dragged Noir by the collar and said, “Take a picture with her.”
Noir was speechless.
Had he become a mascot of some sort?
Unfortunately, he dared not and was not in a position to deny his superior’s request. With that, he allowed Rainbow to instruct him to pose for multiple pictures.
Rainbow took so many pictures to the point that even she felt embarrassed.
Noir went back to his duties with Marcus while Andrius brought Rainbow to her school.
On the way there, Rainbow went through the pictures she took with Noir and somehow teared up.
“What’s wrong, Rainbow?” Andrius asked.
“I’m fine!” Rainbow choked but she continued, “I’m just so, so happy.”
Andrius was rendered speechless. “Isn’t this a little too much?”
“Too much?! It’s not enough!” Rainbow reacted strongly.
Andrius shook his head and smiled in silence.
“You don’t understand!” Rainbow saw the nonchalant look on his face. She continued, “He’s a general, a hero that protects our country! Taking a picture with a general is precious. It is my honor!”
Andrius did not ruin her fantasy since she was so into it.
As a matter of fact, the generals were honored to have a picture with him, the Wolf King, but he would never tell
Rainbow. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
Andrius knew he was not going to stay for long. Once his fake marriage with Luna was over, it was highly unlikely that he would come back.
“Andrius, how do you know him?” Rainbow asked all of a sudden.
Andrius simply said, “We were childhood friends. He got into the military and became a general.”
“Ooh.” Rainbow’s eyes gleamed with interest. “There are still many chances for me to see him in the future, right?”
“Of course.” Andrius added, “If you want to take pictures with him again, just tell me. I’ll call him over.”
“Wow!” Rainbow squealed in excitement.
While the car was stopping in front of the traffic lights, she kissed Andrius on the cheek.
“I love you, Andrius!”
She was so quick that even Andrius failed to react and was left speechless. He was only playing Luna’s husband and was not really her spouse, yet Rainbow treated him like her real brother -in-law and kissed him.
He did not know who to complain to.
They finally reached Rainbow’s school.
“Andrius, can you do me a favor?” Rainbow got out of the car and gave Andrius a key. She pointed at the school dorm and said, “Can you help me bring the luggage to my dorm? I wanna get a boba tea.”
Rainbow then hopped towards the nearby boba tea shop, seemingly delighted.
There was a long line in front of the boba tea shop.
Andrius bitterly smiled and got to work.
Fortunately, Rainbow did not bring a lot of luggage with her: only a large backpack, two boxes, and a big handheld.
Andrius wanted to finish the task in one trip, but the big handheld was heavier than expected. The strap would break if he was not careful.
He left one box and the big handheld behind and decided to make two trips.
After he was done with the first trip, he came back to the car and saw that another Porsche had stopped beside his own.
