After comforting Tina, who was worried about him, Lorraine withdrew her hand.
Now that his five-month-long save file was gone, he knew that complaining was useless. It was time to face reality and think carefully about how to create a new save file, and this time he wanted to do it even better than before.
As Lorraine gazed at the setting sun on the horizon, her mind filled with countless thoughts.
Little did they know.
Sitting next to him, Wu Tina was also watching him, gazing at his profile, which looked somewhat lonely yet strong under the setting sun. Unconsciously, she became somewhat mesmerized.
So much so that they didn't even realize when they had gotten close to each other.
It wasn't until Lorraine's stomach suddenly rumbled that she snapped back to reality.
Lorraine was also taken aback for a moment, then gave Wu Tina a somewhat awkward smile.
Wu Tina covered her mouth and smiled.
"Is Brother Lin hungry?"
"I think I only ate something this morning..."
"Oh, by the way, please wait a moment."
Just as Wu Tina was thinking about what she could do for the other person, she remembered that she had some things in her small bag.
She rummaged through the bag carefully and then took out a box of cookies that wasn't very pretty.
It was handed to the other party.
"This is?"
"We had a home economics class at the academy today, and I made some cookies. I was planning to take them home and eat them slowly, but since Brother Lin is hungry, if you don't mind, you can take them and eat them."
"Did you make this yourself?"
"Although... although it may look a bit ugly, it tastes good. I've tried it myself, and it's not bad. I hope Brother Lin will like it."
Lorraine hesitated for a moment.
Seeing the expectant look on Wu Tina's face, he accepted the gift and said with a smile, "Then I shall accept it. Thank you, Wu Tina."
"Brother Lin, you're too kind. It's just some cookies."
Wu Tina was very happy that the other party accepted it.
As Lorraine picked up the cookies and started popping them into her mouth, she watched him nervously.
Lorraine was a little confused.
"What's wrong? Why are you staring at me?"
"Um... well... ah... how's the taste?"
So that's what you were concerned about.
Lorraine replied.
"It's delicious! I'll eat it all. I'll have this gift for dinner tonight."
"Oh, that's great!"
Wu Tina breathed a sigh of relief.
"What, are you worried I'll dislike it?"
"My cooking skills are not very good. Although the cookies I made tasted okay, the shapes were really messy. I feel it would be too impolite to give cookies like this as a gift."
"It's okay, I'll be happy as long as it's from you."
"Huh? Ahhh... Haha, Brother Lin, you're exaggerating too much."
Tina danced with delight, overwhelmed with gratitude.
But I was actually very happy.
——
Seeing that the other person was really eating the cookies she had made herself and that they looked a bit dry, Wu Tina specially took out her teacup from her small bag and reminded him with concern, "Brother Lin, have some tea. You'll choke if you keep eating cookies like that."
Lorraine noticed that the pink teacup that Wu Tina was holding was the one she usually used.
He smiled and shook his head.
"It's alright, don't worry... cough cough!"
Before he could even finish speaking, he choked and coughed several times.
Seeing this, Wu Tina quickly opened her teacup and handed it over, saying, "Oh dear, you see, it's not good to be too stubborn."
"That's your own teacup, isn't it?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"Is it okay if I drink it?"
"Is there any reason why not?"
Wu Tina had just finished speaking.
She suddenly snapped out of her daze and realized that if the other person touched her teacup, then... then if she used it later, wouldn't the two of them... then become indirect kissers?!
Upon realizing this, Wu Tina's pretty face immediately turned bright red.
But the hand that offered the teacup remained still in motion.
She stammered weakly.
"If... if it's Brother Lin, I... I... I wouldn't mind."
"real?"
"Um."
"She really is a kind-hearted child."
Lorraine was moved.
Since the other party had already put it this way, he didn't stand on ceremony. He took the teacup and began to enjoy the biscuits with gusto.
Seeing how happily the other person was eating, Wu Tina was also happy.
...
When the cookies were almost finished and the tea was gone, Lorraine returned the teacup to the other person with satisfaction.
Wu Tina took it back and put it back in her small bag, but still asked with concern.
"Brother Lin, is this all we have? Well... aren't men usually known for their big appetites?"
"Haha, that's enough. At least it's enough to maintain the most basic energy for activities."
"Oh, I see. I was still hungry. If I had known this, I would have made more."
"It will be dark soon, you should go home, Wu Tina."
"Is it really okay for Brother Lin to be alone?"
"What, you want to stay and keep me company? Sleeping on the street with me in the middle of the night?"
