Even if… I don't know who my parents are, even if… I don't have a happy family, so what?
I have him, Su Zhan… he is my home!
Skye slept sweetly, deeply…
Her hand was already wrapped around Su Zhan's neck, unwilling to let go even in her sleep, as if afraid that if she let go, Su Zhan would disappear.
The room was dimly lit, with no lights on, and Su Zhan watched Skye up close like this, watching her smile even in her sleep.
…
…
Skye groggily reached out, feeling that no one seemed to be around, which startled her and woke her up instantly. Opening her eyes, Su Zhan was no longer beside her. She got up in a panic, just about to call Su Zhan's name, when she suddenly heard the door open, followed by Su Zhan walking in, carrying some things.
"Where did you go?"
Skye got up and directly threw herself into Su Zhan's arms.
Su Zhan smiled and said, "To buy breakfast."
"I thought… I thought…" Skye murmured.
"You thought I left? How could that be? Although I may not be with you every day, there's no way I'd leave at a time like this." Su Zhan hadn't expected Skye to be so clingy. It seemed that girls and women were indeed different. After Skye's transformation, her dependence on him had increased exponentially!
"Mhm." Skye nodded repeatedly and got up from Su Zhan.
"Still sleeping? If not, come eat!"
"Mhm." Skye was like an echo, happily agreeing, and didn't even bother to get dressed. She just ate breakfast with Su Zhan in the living room. Although it was just a very ordinary breakfast, Skye seemed to be eating a grand feast, feeling incredibly satisfied.
"What are your plans today? Are you going back to S.H.I.E.L.D., or are you coming with me?" Su Zhan asked.
Skye thought for a moment, then said with some reluctance, "Of course, I want to be with you, but… I should go back. I've already found some clues, and I hope to investigate them as soon as possible, and then I can be with you forever!"
"Alright, then I'll take you back later."
"Mhm!"
After breakfast and a short rest, the two washed up, got dressed, and then left the hotel.
Back on the S.H.I.E.L.D. ship, everyone noticed that Skye seemed a bit different upon her return, as if she had a very unique charm… Considering that Su Zhan had taken Skye away to spend the night out, it was clear what had happened.
Coulson even teased Su Zhan, saying, "I'm injured, but you took Skye out for romance. Isn't that a bit much?"
To this, Su Zhan merely said, "Envious? If you're envious, go find a girlfriend yourself. Maybe she can soothe your injured heart!"
"If there's nothing important, you should rest today. I'm going back to the Base. Call me if you miss me!" Su Zhan kissed Skye on the cheek, then prepared to leave. As he turned, he happened to see Simmons. Her face had a very strange expression, like envy? Or… jealousy?
Su Zhan smiled at her, and Simmons hastily composed herself and smiled back at him.
"You're so beautiful!"
After Su Zhan left, Simmons came over to Skye, unable to help but exclaim.
Skye smiled and said, "The clothes are beautiful, aren't they?"
"No, not the clothes, it's your aura, you're more feminine now…" Simmons thought for a moment and said, "You're like a shining gem now, dazzling."
Skye smiled sweetly; she could also feel her own change.
"Is this the difference between a girl and a woman? Su Zhan, when will I become a woman?" Simmons subconsciously thought of every moment she had spent with Su Zhan, of him lying on her lap, of the conditions he had proposed to her…
"Achoo!"
Su Zhan, who was flying, suddenly sneezed. "Strange, we just parted ways, and Skye misses me so soon?"
Shaking his head, Su Zhan was about to accelerate when his eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of a light below. A very familiar light—the light emitted when Blink opened a portal.
"Why is she here?"
Su Zhan was a little curious and instinctively changed direction, flying over.

"Where is she?"
After landing, Su Zhan found that Blink was gone.
Looking around, he found that this was an abandoned parking lot, surrounded by scrapped cars. Su Zhan was a little puzzled. Blink wasn't at the Base; why would she suddenly come here?
If it was for secrecy, there was no need to open the portal here, was there?
A puzzled Su Zhan was about to call Blink to ask when he suddenly heard movement behind him. Turning around, he saw Blink walking out from behind him.
"What are you doing here? Are you here to buy something?" Because Blink could teleport, she was basically responsible for buying things, which was why Su Zhan asked this.
"Yes." Blink nodded and walked over.
Su Zhan frowned slightly, feeling that something wasn't quite right.
Flat. Blink's reaction was too flat. In the past, Blink would definitely call him 'Boss' first when she saw him. There was no way she would react so flatly now.
"Wait!"
Su Zhan frowned and called out, "Are you alright?"
"Me? Of course, I'm alright?" Blink said, puzzled.
"No, you're not!"
Her reaction further confirmed Su Zhan's suspicion. Watching her warily, Su Zhan said with a cold smile, "Although I'm not sure if this is an illusion or Mind Control, I'm certain you are not the real Blink. So, whoever you are, you'd best come out, otherwise if I find you, I'll let you know what happens when you provoke me, when you provoke my people!"
"I'm very curious, how did you figure that out?"
Blink's expression suddenly changed, becoming playful, and the tone of her voice was also different.
"Mind Control?"
This shouldn't be an illusion; Blink must have been controlled by someone.
There were quite a few people who understood Mind Control, and for a moment, Su Zhan really couldn't guess who would control Blink.
"It's simple. Although you controlled Blink, you are not her, so naturally, you don't know our way of interacting." Su Zhan looked at her coldly and said slowly.
"So that's it. It seems you two are indeed very familiar, able to see through it with just a few words." Blink chuckled softly, then said, "Want to know who I am? Then follow me!"
