"You and him?"
Orannal's face turned stern.
"What bad thing did that guy do behind my back?"
What are you saying?
Lu Mingming pouted, feigning anger, her ears turning red.
"I just feel that you two have different personalities, but you need to be cuter!"
"That's more like it."
Upon hearing these kind words, Orannal couldn't help but curl his lips into a gentle smile.
"This is for you."
He handed over the plastic bag.
"Hey, what did you buy?"
Lu Mingming took the bag and opened it to take a look.
The package included warm ginger soup, some essential cold medicines, and a bag of local snacks.
"I was thinking you went to see Nightwin, it must have been very cold in the sea, right? Don't catch a cold. The ginger soup is homemade, it's in a thermos so you can drink it anytime."
There are some snacks and cookies; you can eat them if you're hungry. Although they're not as good as yours, I tried them, and the five-star chef's cooking is pretty good. They'll do for filling your stomach. Anyway, you must take good care of your health when you get back.”
Oranner's voice trembled slightly as he finished speaking.
He remembered the panic and the pain of losing Lu Mingming when the laser beam shone on him.
Hearing what the other person said, Lu Mingming thought of the same thing and comforted them in a relaxed tone: "Don't worry, I'll be fine. My abilities are more powerful than you think. It's just that I'm restricted from using my mental power in this parallel world. Otherwise, I could go up and fight."
"good."
Oranar didn't say much, but indulgently agreed to Lu Mingming's words.
"I hope there will never be a day when you have to take action yourself. I want to be your knight in shining armor, protecting your safety. Would you give me that chance?"
The two suddenly locked eyes, and Lu Mingming saw an unprecedented level of seriousness and affection in their eyes.
Her heart began to race in her chest, and she couldn't help but frantically wonder: Had she misheard?
Lu Mingming pretended not to understand: "Of course! Haven't you always been my little tiger and little knight?"
Orannal lowered his eyes, quickly concealing the disappointment in them, and forced a smile.
“I was too hasty… I kept thinking about the scene of you collapsing in front of me, I kept having that dream… it tormented me.”
Oranner lowered his voice.
Without revealing any emotion, Lu Mingming could hear his pain.
"Feel sorry."
Oranner, filled with remorse, opened his arms and gently pulled the person into his embrace.
“Everything I did today was my fault. I can promise you that next time, no, I will absolutely never let you face this again.”
His eyes were filled with determination as he looked at Lu Mingming.
Lu Mingming was stunned, then lowered his head and chuckled helplessly: "Then please, little knight... come back to face my test next time when you are ready."
