"No, I can tell it's been a while. Did something sad happen to you, or did I...make you angry?"

"Not at all. You never made me angry. It's my own fault. I adjusted myself quickly." Qin Liu tried to make his tone sound more relaxed.

However, this could not fool Bai Lang, but made her feel that the matter was more serious. She desperately hoped that she could think of some topic to make Miss Qin Liu laugh, but when she got to the point, she found that she was tongue-tied and at a loss for words, and could not think of any witty words at all.

She looked around anxiously, as if trying to find a topic from the environment, and she actually found it.

She recalled the scene she saw the last time she came to the park. In her anxiety, she blurted out, "Qin Liu, the last time I came to this park, I saw something very interesting and remarkable. It was still dark at night."

Qin Liu's interest was indeed piqued, and she put the painful choice behind her mind. She really wanted to know what Miss Olisia would find interesting.

"Two Philins, both men, in the woods..."

"What are you doing in the woods?" Qin Liu asked. Based on her knowledge, she had already guessed what it was based on these key words, but she was still very curious, because it felt very different when it came from Miss Olisia's mouth.

However, Miss Olicia suddenly realized something, her face turned red, and she refused to say anything.

"What is it? You are so mean. You have aroused other people's curiosity, but you deliberately didn't say anything."

"I, I suddenly realized that this is actually a very boring thing. No, there is no need to talk about it." White Wolf said hesitantly.

"I want to listen even if I'm bored." Qin Liu insisted.

“It’s really boring.”

"Tell me something." Qin Liu poked Bai Lang's arm with a smile.

White Wolf had no choice but to open his eyes and say nonsense: "Okay, okay, I'll tell you. They are...playing chess, really, I saw it with my own eyes!"

“Playing chess?” Qin Liu was obviously stunned for a moment, then he laughed non-stop, holding his belly, “Haha, you are amazing, playing chess? I saw it with my own eyes? They played chess in the dark woods in the middle of the night, did they light up the lamp? Hahaha.”

"Light a lamp? Light what lamp?" White Wolf was already confused by the other party's intense emotions.

Qin Liu's smile slowly faded. She licked her dry lips with the tip of her tongue and replied in a strange tone, "How can you see clearly without turning on the lights? If it were me, I would definitely turn on the lights for such an interesting thing, don't you think?"

White Wolf nodded blankly: "Yes, yes, we should turn on the lights. We can't play chess in the dark."

Volume 4: Chapter 144 People need to understand each other

Miss Qin Liu was happy, but Bai Lang was becoming more and more confused.

Did she say anything? She didn't say anything.

Why did the other person become so strange?

——The shy and introverted brain is doomed to fail in the face of Victorian frivolity.

A study conducted by the Victoria Institute of Psychology shows that body movements can affect emotions. After laughing, Miss Qin Liu felt that a part of the burden in her heart was lifted, and she felt relaxed.

A strange thought suddenly occurred to me.

She suddenly pounced on Miss Olicia beside her, rested her head on her shoulder, and locked her soft waist with both hands.

"What are you doing?" Bai Lang struggled reflexively, but she couldn't get away from Miss Qin Liu's arms, so she had to persuade her with a dry tongue and a red face, "This is a park, a public place."

"Yes." Miss Qin Liu raised one hand and pointed to the left. Bai Lang looked in the direction she pointed and saw a blond-haired girl named Filin reading a book on another bench a few dozen meters away, while her female companion was taking a nap with her head resting on her legs.

"This park is right next to the university. The students in Victoria are very open-minded." Qin Liu explained, then took his hand back and put his arm around Miss Olicia's waist.

"It's up to you." Bai Lang let out a long sigh and felt that she was making a fuss out of nothing. There was nothing wrong in lending her shoulder to her friend as a pillow. She noticed another detail and tilted her head because she was afraid that Miss Qin Liu's horns would poke her face.

This little action irritated Qin Liu, and she muttered a little dissatisfiedly: "I'm very careful not to touch it, you don't have to worry. Hey, don't you think my horns are beautiful?"

"These are the most beautiful horns of the Vaifans I have ever seen." White Wolf praised without reservation. She tilted her head and gently touched the other's horns with her head.

Not only beautiful, but also hard, she thought oddly.

"Am I the most beautiful Vaifan you have ever seen?" Qin Liu suddenly had an idea when he heard the compliment and asked more aggressively.

"Yes." White Wolf answered without hesitation.

Qin Liu was very confused. She felt that Miss Olicia was being perfunctory: "Don't you need to think about it?"

White Wolf was also confused: "Do we need to think about things that can be obviously judged?"

She felt Miss Qin Liu pause for a moment, and her breathing rhythm slightly quickened. The breath blowing on her face became rapid and itchy, with a faint fruity scent.

It’s time to eat oranges, Bai Lang thought randomly. She also tried a little in the restaurant at noon, but found it too sour, so she didn’t eat it. Maybe, probably, she should try a few more?

"Ms. Olicia, you are so good." Qin Liu said suddenly.

"Hey, what can I do?" The white wolf shook his ears and asked curiously.

However, Miss Qin Liu suddenly got angry for some reason, and vented indignantly: "Miss Olicia, I have a feeling that I am not the only one who can't stand it. You know, you are actually very bad."

While speaking, Qin Liu clenched her hands into fists, as if she wanted to hit Bai Lang's waist twice in anger, but when she hit the body, the fists turned back into palms, and she rubbed them gently.

Bai Lang was so frightened by this sudden situation that she dared not speak. She knew that people would always make all kinds of unintentional mistakes. The closer they were to others, the easier it was to be hurt unintentionally. She tried her best to pay attention to other people's emotions, but did she still miss something?

Of course, she couldn't guess what Miss Qin Liu was thinking. In fact, Qin Liu herself couldn't figure out her own thoughts, and she had begun to regret what she had just said.

How can you say such words? What kind of situation do you want to put Miss Olicia in?

She is innocent, and you are guilty. There is no shortage of guilty souls in this world, Jane Willow. You have committed the crime of depravity. You are not worthy of using the Qinliu Knight mentioned by the bard as your code name.

Hasn’t the thing that you have been worrying about already come to an end?

You already knew this would be the result, and deep thinking is just an excuse, isn't it?

Jane Willow.

You are destined to abandon your past principles and give up your former ideals.

You will be decadent, miserable, intoxicated, happy, leave your homeland and go to distant Ursus.

Because, this is your choice.

Her expression changed, and she struggled to put on a painful smile. She looked at the profile of the person next to her with infinite tenderness, and whispered:

"Olicia, I actually want to tell you something."

"You say." White Wolf answered cautiously.

Qin Liu's face suddenly turned as pale as paper, and her voice trembled: "I'm not leaving. I want to stay in Victoria."

"You, what did you say?" White Wolf asked in disbelief. Her mind couldn't help but reflect on that golden morning when Miss Qin Liu took the initiative to ask to go to Ursus. She seemed to be trying to persuade her to think more, but in fact, she was so happy that she wanted to jump up. That day, she walked briskly in the jungle, and Miss Qin Liu, who was worried about danger, always asked her to follow behind her.

Before going to bed at night, when she was alone in a daze, she planned her future actions bit by bit. Miss Qin Liu had already integrated into her entire dream...

Why is this so?

She hoped that she had misheard, but she knew that she couldn't have misheard. Miss Qin Liu was speaking in her ear.

Qin Liu could not see the sadness and helplessness that flashed across Bai Lang's face. She said softly with a broken heart, "I'm sorry. I've thought about it carefully. It would be more appropriate for me to stay in Victoria."

When you are frustrated, I will stand by your side without hesitation, but the fact is that you don't need me at all with your ability. I am just a burden to you, a dispensable person. I am poor in swordsmanship and stupid, and I will never become the Qinliu Knight mentioned by the bard, but I want to work hard to become a better person. I like you so much, gentle, shy, brave, silly Miss Olicia.

Bai Lang suddenly understood why Qin Liu was always unhappy. The answer had been in front of her, but she had never paid attention to it.

The other party had told her a long time ago that he longed to be a real knight, and the two even held a ridiculous ceremony for this. In Victoria, the ancient knights were the sword and shield that protected the country and the people. Miss Qin Liu's idea, from her imitation of the knights and her envy of the identity of the bagpipe soldier, can be seen, this is undoubtedly the most noble ideal.

What qualifications do I have to interfere with other people's decisions?

White Wolf, don't let your cowardice and selfishness hinder the progress of others. Miss Qin Liu has been troubled by this until now. Giving up immediately is the best action. Any hesitation and sadness you show will bring greater suffering to the other party.

Why are you sad? Why are you so sad? It's your fault. You shouldn't have relied on others. You shouldn't have done that from the beginning.

She blinked her misty eyes hard and tried her best to imitate a cheerful tone: "Why do you need to apologize? Nothing happened. I expected it a long time ago, so I told you at that time so that you could think about it carefully."

Before Bailang opened his mouth, Qin Liu's heart was brewing the most urgent hope. She hoped that the other party would ask her to stay. No, there was no need to ask her to stay. As long as he expressed a little bit of reluctance, she would laugh and say that she was actually joking.

However, fantasy is just fantasy after all, and Miss Olisia really doesn't need her anymore.

She suddenly had the urge to cry, but she forced herself to nod and say "hmm".

Volume 4: Chapter 145 The Last Supper

The evening celebration banquet started as scheduled, in the high-end private room of the Dagu Hotel.

Before the celebration party began, Oliver already knew Jenny's choice. He then realized that he had been overthinking it. Qin Liu and Olicia should be pure friends. There may be some reluctance between them, but it is not as exaggerated as he thought.

As expected, people with rich inner worlds always like to add drama to other people's stories. It's time for me to change this bad habit.

At the table, not only was Jenny chatting enthusiastically, but even Miss Olicia became unusually active, and he, who usually didn't like to talk, was also affected and joined in on the conversation. Although there were only three people in the private room, they managed to create a lively atmosphere.

However, there were some strange emotions always lingering in Oliver's heart. He would feel in a trance that there was a foggy sad emotion flowing in the lively scene.

He attributed this feeling to the pressure of tomorrow's urgent tasks.

At the dinner table, Olicia and Qin Liu clinked their glasses. Olicia wished Miss Qin Liu smooth sailing in her mission in Xiaoqiu County and to realize her ideals as soon as possible. Qin Liu wished Miss Olicia a prosperous career.

Overhearing Olivia's wishes, Oliver couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Any emergency mission would not be easy or pleasant. Things in Hill County had already shown signs of breaking out. According to his guess, Rhodes Island might have to prepare to face the most difficult task in Victoria. Would the future really be smooth sailing?

He suddenly had an idea: Wouldn't it be better to let Jenny follow Olivia, leave Victoria with its uncertain future, and go to Ursus where things are going smoothly?

Bai Lang, who picked up the red wine, was also filled with emotion. Qin Liu was wishing her a prosperous career, but was this her career? Yes and no, this was also the career of the infected.

Can the future of Ursus infected people really be prosperous? Maybe, maybe not. How can such a small person like her try to influence the overall situation? Compared with the confusing situation in Ursus, perhaps it is the best choice for Miss Qin Liu to stay in the safe and reliable Rhodes Island.

She sighed in her heart and drank the red wine in the glass with relief.

Today's red wine has no taste.

The joyful dinner ended at 10:46, and several people were walking back to the hotel together. Bai Lang suddenly suggested that Oliver wait for a moment, as he wanted to talk to Qin Liu about something in private, but he didn't say what it was.

The good old man Oliver of course obeyed the order and walked aside. He noticed from the corner of his eye that Olivia was pulling Jenny away from him.

Really, are you still afraid of eavesdropping? Oliver would never do such a tasteless thing. Well, although, I am indeed very curious.

Bai Lang brought Qin Liu to a stop beside a flowerbed at the corner of the road. He rubbed his hands awkwardly and said, "I just want to tell you something. It won't take too long."

"It doesn't matter how long it takes." Qin Liu looked deeply at Olicia and answered in a daze.

White Wolf spoke, a little anxiously: "Qin Liu, you are a very good person. You said that you admire the spirit of chivalry. I understand and admire it. I have a friend who sneers at knights, but I know that she also likes real knights. This is very good, this is very good."

She was a little incoherent, and Qin Liu became more and more curious. She was more concerned about the "friend" that Miss Olicia mentioned, but at this time, the other party was obviously expressing something more important with intense emotions.

"I said this just to express my opinion. Please don't misunderstand me. I want to say, Qin Liu, sometimes you don't need to keep moving forward and be less like a knight. This is by no means to not support your idea. It's by no means that you, you understand, I support you, I fully support you, but don't do that, because you will get hurt. Being a knight is difficult, really difficult."

Qin Liu did not answer, and no one knew what she was thinking at this moment.

The white wolf's face turned pale and he lowered his head without saying a word.

What are you talking about? White Wolf, you are defiling the most noble spirit. You have thought about it countless times. You clearly know that sacrificing for ideals and grand dreams is the highest destination for the soul and body. Do you want to drive others out of this hall?

This is you, White Wolf.

A selfish reptile with a gorgeous appearance but a despicable heart.

A fiery flame suddenly burned in her eyes, and without any warning, she hugged Miss Vaifan tightly, breathing in her scent.

After a long time, the flames died down.

She hummed. "Thank you, Miss Qin Liu."

They didn't keep Oliver waiting for long, and they went back together chatting and laughing.

That dim flower garden, the hazy starlight, the sounds, the moisture and dew of breathing, and the pain of separation will always remain in Jane Willow's heart, until, long, long later, when the two people, who had experienced countless events, had a sad reunion.

……

The next morning, the sky was gray and the newspaper said it might rain.

Qin Liu opened the rear door seat with the suitcase.

"Aren't you going to say goodbye?" Oliver put out the cigarette in his hand and asked while holding the steering wheel.

Qin Liu looked back at the window of the hotel and shook her head: "No, I'm afraid I won't be able to walk if I go."

Oliver fastened his seat belt with a strange look on his face. He did not start the engine immediately. He turned his head again and reminded: "I advise you to go first, otherwise you will regret it later."

"You are so nagging. Miss Olicia hasn't woken up yet. She likes to sleep in."

"Okay." Oliver stepped on the accelerator awkwardly. It was hard to imagine that a man of few words like him would be described as 'nagging' one day.

The car drove smoothly out of the garage of the Dagu Hotel and passed through Londinium Avenue. At the city gate, they were allowed to pass smoothly after showing their Rhodes Island identities.

The suburbs were sparsely populated in the early morning, with not many other vehicles. Oliver, who was driving, relaxed. He suddenly remembered something he didn't quite understand, so he asked casually, "Jenny, how do you know Miss Olicia likes to sleep in? I think she's very hardworking. Is it possible to sleep in in the assessment area you're going to?"

"No, it's very busy there."

"That's strange. You haven't seen it before, so why do you dare to say that?"
