Chapter 55 I Will Always Wait for You
"That's too much, Si Jue! How could you sneak out of the cooperation we agreed on?"
Qi Hanxing squeezed over with great effort, and kept dangling in front of Lilith like a mole.
"Ahem, well, although you were quite perfunctory to me before, I think I've fallen in love with you."
He confessed unwillingly that the boy, who had never been troubled by anything, would only show a somewhat uneasy expression at such a time.
Lilith was still in shock from the confession, her eyes wandering. After hearing Qi Hanxing's words, she asked a strange question,
"Didn't you say you don't like your wife and hate her?"
She heard this with her own ears. Could this be some kind of prank? Or some kind of drama to make the heroine jealous? She couldn't help but guess,
"...How can you still remember it so clearly? You've already sent me a divorce notice. Now you're my ex-wife, ex-wife! Those words naturally don't count!"
So they're all serious?
Lilith suddenly felt absurd. What was this? She'd spent so much time trying to match the male and female protagonists, even filing for divorce, because she was worried about her own life, afraid that her status as a wife would cause dissatisfaction among the male protagonists. And now two of the male protagonists said they liked her?
She's not a masochist. Shouldn't both Si Jue and Qi Hanxing hate her?
What's more, the heroine is still here?
Lilith looked at Alice behind Si Jue. She pursed her lips tightly and looked unhappy.
"Senior must be thinking of something strange again. I've noticed that you always seem to think I should be involved with them."
Alice snorted coldly, feeling somewhat dissatisfied. She was clearly the one venting her anger on behalf of her senior, but the annoying sentinel showed up to confess his feelings. This was too much.
"Guides aren't restricted to Sentinels. These easily out-of-control creatures aren't suitable as partners at all. The Empire has always paired Guides and Sentinels together, even though mutual affection is the most important thing."
"I don't like any of the Sentinels. Seniors can't push me towards them. It's not fair to me."
The black-haired, black-eyed girl looked at Lilith stubbornly. Her eyes, which had been thought to be gentle and kind, were now filled with grievance and ambition.
The overly strong gaze was even a little too much for Lilith to bear. She felt that there was something hidden in the heroine's words that she couldn't think deeply about.
So, the heroine wasn't attracted to any of the five heroes? Doesn't that mean her assist was a failure?
Lilith didn't like forced pairings. Being forced to get close to others had caused her so much pain before. She couldn't possibly impose that on another girl.
Alice doesn't necessarily have to be with the male protagonist, right? Maybe he prefers ordinary people?
The unexpected plot made her brain explode. Lilith turned her head and looked at Shen Jiaxu. He stood there with a complicated and gloomy expression, as if he wanted to say something.
"Wait, you're not going to say you like me too?"
That's too bad! Lilith raised her hand hastily to stop him, but Shen Jiaxu just looked at her speechlessly, the gentle mask disappeared, and his tone was sarcastic.
"Heh, I quite like seeing you being narcissistic."
After being ridiculed, Lilith was not angry. She just sighed exaggeratedly and patted her chest.
"That's great, you're still normal, otherwise I would have suspected that the plot I was following was wrong."
Well, first of all, excluding Shen Jiaxu, Xie Huan definitely wouldn't like her either. Fu Sui? This guy looks like a playboy, probably the type who only cares about sex and not love. It's safe.
Qi Hanxing... I always feel like he's just a child sulking. Does he really know what love is?
Then, the only thing left to deal with is the guy in front of her who is holding her tightly.
Lilith sighed and patted Si Jue's head soothingly.
"Can you let me go first? I have to go to class. If you have anything to say, we can talk after school."
"What about me?"
Before Si Jue could answer, Qi Hanxing became more and more aggressive, not even considering her own body shape, and wanted to lean into Lilith's arms like a little bird.
"You, uh... the person outside the door seems to be looking for you. I won't bother you for now. Bye."
Anyway, she had to run away first. This Shura field plot was not something she, an ordinary cannon fodder, should go through. She had to spend some time to sort it out.
The middle-aged man outside the door yelled Qi Hanxing's name at the top of his lungs, saying that if he didn't answer the phone, he would send the video of him crying as a child.
Shen Jiaxu had to let someone in so as not to disturb the other student union members while catching an idol who was trying to escape.
Alice hesitated for a moment, picked up the documents on the table and stepped aside.
Only Si Jue,
Lilith looked helplessly at the person who had been following her. Although he had let go of her hand, he still walked not far away from her right side. His figure was visible in the corner of her eyes.
There were many students walking in the corridor, and all kinds of eyes were looking at them. Lilith herself didn't care, but Si Jue also looked completely unaware.
But when they walked into the classroom dedicated to guides, Lilith and the others were stopped.
"Sorry, this is a guide-only course. Sentinels are not allowed. You can place your sentinel on the bench on the left."
The pretty lady with a high ponytail at the door said this. Lilith glanced to the left and saw several sentries standing or sitting, looking bored and killing time.
Why does this scene look so much like the couples traveling together that I saw when I was shopping in the mall in my previous life?
Lilith hesitated to speak, but the silver-haired boy sat over obediently, with his legs slightly apart, his body sitting upright, looking at her quietly.
"I'll wait here for you, no matter how long it takes."
Damn, what kind of a spoiled husband quote is this? Lilith admitted that her mood was indeed a little better at the moment.
The handsome lady at the door smiled knowingly and gently pushed Lilith's shoulder.
"Okay, stop staring at each other affectionately. We're just going to class, not parting forever. It's so corny."
The awakening of the guide usually occurs after adulthood, so the corresponding courses will not be opened until the second year of school.
Compared to the large classroom for individual soldier courses, the guide classroom was more like a small auditorium. Five round tables formed a semicircle around a high platform in the center. At this moment, a few people were already sitting there.
Lilith counted them. Including herself and the girl at the door, there were only fifteen people. No wonder the Empire valued the status of guides so much. She randomly chose a round table with few people and sat down. The guide sitting opposite her suddenly stood up.
As early as when Lilith walked in, others had already noticed her. After participating in the exchange meeting, Alice was in the limelight, while Lilith was in a mess. Fake rich girl, useless guide, arrogant and domineering person who got retribution, and the winner who won without effort, all these labels were attached to her.
"Get up, you piece of shit, this is not the place for you."
