Faced with the same heartfelt question from Wu Tina.
Lorraine hesitated for a moment, then remained silent before finally replying.
“Wu Tina, I know this is unfair to you, and I don’t want to make this decision, but this choice… is the best for you, for me… for both of us. Continuing this friendship will only bring trouble and harm to both of us.”
"What?"
Wu Tina looked at Lorraine in disbelief and asked, "Brother Lin, do you really want to send me away?"
"I did not mean that."
"Have I... started to bother and annoy you?"
"No."
"Have I... become a burden to you?"
"no."
"But I don't want to leave you. I just want to stay by your side. If there are any difficulties, we can face them together, okay? Hmm?"
"Why won't you listen to advice? I was only doing it for your own good."
“Brother Lin, if you really care about me, you shouldn’t use such a seemingly reasonable excuse to do such an absurd thing. That would be the biggest hurt to me. Besides, Brother Lin, do you really think... I would agree to this? If I really nodded and said, ‘Okay, then let’s break up,’ then I really don’t deserve to stay by your side.”
"Aren't you afraid of putting yourself in danger?"
"Danger? If that's how you put it, Brother Lin, then I'm even less likely to agree. Knowing full well that you might be in danger, do you expect me to abandon you and run away alone?"
"Even if you stay, what can you do for me?"
"Brother Lin, how will you know what I can't do for you if you don't try?"
"It will be too late when that time comes."
"It's okay, I will protect you, Brother Lin."
"Wait a minute... what? Protect me? Who? You?"
now.
Faced with Lorraine's surprised yet amused expression, Wu Tina felt her blood boil. She really wanted to transform on the spot and show him her powerful strength. Although it was the power of an evil organization, Vena was right. Power has no distinction between good and evil. The power of an evil organization... it is still powerful power!
It's better than her going back to being that timid and ordinary girl.
She is now incredibly grateful that she agreed to it in the first place.
It seems Wiener was right.
If she hadn't accepted this power, then at this moment... she would have had no choice but to leave the person she loved most.
It's because she lacks the ability and the right to stand shoulder to shoulder with the other party.
——
When Lorraine heard these words, he was both surprised and amused. He stared straight at her, but Wu Tina's eyes did not flinch at all; they were very firm, as if she really had the power to protect him.
However……
Just then, Lorraine seemed to realize something, and her eyes began to show a hint of amusement.
He thought for a moment and then spoke again.
"Then tell me... what power do you have to protect me? Money? You don't have any money, and your mother isn't wealthy either. Don't cause your mother any trouble."
"No, that's not true!"
"Besides, look at your skinny arms and legs, and your skin is so white and smooth. I feel sorry for you if you get even a scratch."
Hearing the other person compliment her on her good skin.
Wu Tina felt a surge of secret joy, but continued, "Anyway, Brother Lin, I will try my best in my own way, please believe me."
"It seems... you're hiding a lot from me."
"Doesn't Brother Lin also keep many things from me?"
"Haha, Wu Tina, you've changed a bit."
"Yeah."
"Yes... you're starting to look a little different from before."
"What's different? I didn't know that."
"She's become... oh right, she's become cuter, prettier, and has a more attractive figure."
Unexpected praise.
This made Wu Tina blush and her heart race. She scolded playfully, "Oh dear, Brother Lin, why are you suddenly saying all this? How annoying!"
That's what they say.
But deep down, he couldn't hide his joy.
——
"And I've also become more... confident."
"ah?"
"Has something happened during this time?"
No, no.
"By the way... where were you around four o'clock in the afternoon a few days ago?"
Which day?
"It was the 7th."
"Let me think about it."
Wu Tina felt a sudden tension, because that day seemed to be the time when the battle in the abandoned factory took place. Could it be that Brother Lin had discovered something?
It was this fleeting moment of panic and unease that Lorraine remembered, and her gaze subtly changed.
She replied.
"I seem to remember that day... I don't know if it was because I played games too late the night before, but I accidentally fell asleep in the classroom after school. If a teacher hadn't come in and woke me up, I probably would have slept until dark. Haha, Brother Lin, you see, I can be quite careless sometimes."
"Oh, so he fell asleep in the classroom."
"yes."
"So, do you always have your phone with you?"
