Julian turned to look at the girl, who shook her head. The evening breeze lifted her long dress, and the girl standing in the wind smiled and said to him, "You can go now."
"What...does this mean?"
Upon hearing the girl's words, Julian felt inexplicably uneasy, but the girl shook her head.
She turned her head and glanced at the Zhen brothers behind her, who were carrying two babies and running towards them. Then she turned to Julian and asked, "Do you like me?"
"like."
"Leaving aside the game," the girl's words stunned Julian.
Did she know it was just a game?
"Putting games aside, would you like a girl like me? Would you like a girl who gets jealous, is spoiled, and whines and needs to be coaxed when things don't go her way?" As the girl spoke, her eyes welled up with tears. "Am I particularly annoying? I always annoy you, I don't let you look around, I get jealous for no reason, and I'm so delicate that I can't walk straight. Don't you think I'm annoying?"
The girl practically screamed when she uttered her last words.
It was as if she was afraid of hearing the other person say yes, so when she finally asked the question herself, she broke down emotionally first.
But Julian watched her cry, and after a long while he just sighed and shook his head, replying, "I don't hate her."
"Wh-what?" The girl sobbed and hiccuped.
"If I like you, I'll like your coquettishness and your whining. My father said that if a girl gets jealous, it means the man hasn't given her enough security in the relationship. At that point, it's us men who should be reflecting on our actions..."
Is that so?
"Yes, so please don't be sad anymore..."
As Julian said this, he seemed to have vaguely sensed something, but he wasn't sure.
The girl stopped crying and started laughing, staring at Julian with red eyes for a long time without saying a word.
Suddenly, Julian felt as if an invisible hand was forcefully pushing him away from in front of him!
In an instant, he felt as if he were flying.
The next second, the Zhen brothers' exclamations rang out beside him. He turned his head and saw that the three of them were suspended in mid-air as if they had been slowed down.
The three of them even took a moment to look at each other.
What a coincidence, you're flying too?
The next second, as if realizing something, they all turned their heads at the same time, only to see the girl holding two children's hands. The next second, the explosion rang in their ears...
"No!"
The experience in bed felt like a nightmare. Julian supported his sweaty forehead with his hand and took a deep breath.
The previous game left a deep impression on him, and the scene of the girl being engulfed by cannon fire just a second before the game ended was truly shocking.
[If it were possible, would you mind if I pursued you, Mr. Julian Malvis Gutaev?]
The girl's shy words seemed like a hallucination, or a continuation of his own unresolved dream. The sound that appeared almost simultaneously with the explosion was so deeply imprinted in his mind...
