Stepping away from Jessica and observing her from a distant corner, Mr. Guan gradually discovered some details that he had not been able to see before.
Jessica always likes to be close to Li Er, sometimes holding arms, sometimes holding hands; when Li Er sits with his back to her, she gently rubs the back of the chair and stares at Li Er unblinkingly.
Li Er's long black hair. That time when Mr. Guan invited them to have afternoon tea, when he was clearing away the tableware, he discovered that there was missing a paper cup that Li Er had used on the table that was stained with her lip marks - naturally this paper cup would not
In the trash can.
On the other hand, Li Er, her arrogance towards Jessica is really annoying. Why does she always feel as if she is better than others? Mr. Guan can tell at a glance that she secretly hates and envies her roommate;
To maintain a superficial friendship, this woman is really hypocritical.
In any case, it seems that he can no longer be with Jessica. This is not the goal of the game, and there is no loss even if they are not together... He just feels a little sorry for "Mr. Guan", a character who is deeply in love.
He has a crush on Jessica, so the goal of the game is related to her; Jessica is madly in love with Li Er, so her goal must be related to Li Er? Although he doesn't know the specific details yet, he at least knows what direction he should go in to inquire.
Mr. Guan put the freshly baked pastries into the box while thinking about the tactics to be used in the next conversation. When he went out holding the pastry box, he was like everyone in this building who had to carry
Like anyone who saw food outdoors, he secretly prayed that he would not meet Elizabeth.
Living on the second floor with Elizabeth, he had to be extra careful, so he closed the door and went downstairs softly. Perhaps his movements were too gentle, so when he was about to go downstairs, he hid in the shadow under the stairs.
The two people didn't notice anyone approaching the stairs at all, and they were still whispering.
Mr. Guan paused with a bit of embarrassment. He didn't care at all about the other neighbors in the building. As long as he could help Jessica and achieve his goals, he didn't care whether the other characters were fighting each other to the death——
Sighing silently in his stomach, he knew he had to wait until the two of them finished talking at the bottom of the stairs.
"...This amount is only enough for you to use it twice at the end," a woman whispered, "You won't be able to get more if you want."
The other woman's voice hummed deeply.
The consequence of Mr. Guan's usual lack of concern for his neighbors was that he didn't know who the people talking were at this time.
"No matter what your goal is, you have to complete it within two times..." The first woman continued: "Then we will be clear. You haven't mentioned my matter to others, have you?"
"No," the second woman only answered in two words. Before Mr. Guan could identify whose voice it was, she stopped talking. It seemed that he had just caught up with the end of the conversation. He heard the second
A woman said, "So be it," and hurriedly backed away from the stairs, turned around and entered the house - if the two women looked up or went upstairs, they would inevitably realize that he had heard the conversation;
Except for Jessica's matter, he didn't want to cause any complications.
After waiting at home for a while, when he felt that everything should be okay outside, Mr. Guan went out again. When he knocked on the door, he was still thinking about who the two women talking to were "twice-weighted"
What was it? But the moment Jessica opened the door, he immediately forgot what he had just heard.
"I have something to talk to you about," Mr. Guan hurriedly bent down and handed the pastry box over, as if offering a gift, and asked, "It's just the two of us, is it convenient for you?"
Li Er, who was watching TV in the living room, let out a gloating laugh for some reason.
Jessica looked back at her, as if she was a little shy and embarrassed, holding the box and not knowing what to say. Her intuition as a woman must have made her aware of Mr. Guan's feelings, but she chose not to respond.
That's all; she must have misunderstood and thought Mr. Guan was going to puncture the window paper.
"It's... related to her." Mr. Guan hurried over and whispered in Jessica's ear, and then glanced at Li Er's back. I had never noticed it before, but it turned out that Jessica's ears and eyes still had something to do with it.
There are several coarse hairs.
As expected, Jessica immediately opened her eyes and answered "Okay".
"Then let's go into my room and talk," she suggested. She was a very gentle person, and before leaving, she didn't forget to ask Li Er: "Mr. Guan brought some snacks. I'll bring you a plate while you watch TV."
Eat, okay?"
Li Er didn't look back, just waved his hand, as if he was afraid that this suggestion would rub off on him and said, "No, no, no."
What a disgusting girl!
Mr. Guan followed Jessica into her room, still a little aggrieved. Jessica closed the door, sat down on the bed, motioned for him to sit down on a chair, and asked as soon as she opened her mouth: "What's wrong with Li Er?"
La?"
With such deep feelings, I really don't know if I can get the desired result. Mr. Guan shook his head and prepared to attack directly - of course, he had to be careful not to directly talk about the game goals to avoid being considered a foul.
"It's not her, it's you." Mr. Guan whispered, "You love her, right?"
Jessica's expression was as if someone had pricked her with a needle. She immediately became vigilant, straightened up and said, "Why...don't talk nonsense."
"Don't worry, as long as you don't want to, I won't tell anyone." Mr. Guan was afraid that she would misunderstand him, so he almost moved out of his chair in a hurry. "You must understand my feelings for you to some extent.
Some... I can do anything for you, as long as you are truly happy."
He wouldn't be able to speak the lines of this kind of third-rate romantic drama without a character manual.
Jessica looked at him, blinked slowly, and said in a longer voice: "...Oh?"
She must have come around.
Due to the rules of the game, he could only wrap his game goals in a confession and tell her. Anyone who is not a fool should be able to realize it.
"I understand, I'm very touched, thank you." Jessica was still so gentle, and sighed and said: "But, I'm afraid you can't help me. Li'er is not...she is not interested in women, and naturally she is not interested in me either.
I'm not interested. Of course I want to confess to her and pursue her, but I'm more afraid of losing her. Rather than losing her, it's better to stay like this."
Understood.
Mr. Guan sat back on the chair, straightened his back, and realized that a smile was appearing on his face involuntarily. Jessica glanced at him and smiled slightly: "...You don't discriminate against me, and you are willing to help me."
I, I will always cherish this feeling."
When Mr. Guan left, he gently touched Jessica's shoulder and glanced at Li Er, who was still unaware in the living room.
