Chapter 424
"There's a saying that goes, "If you fight at the beginning, you will make up at the end of the bed." Why don't we let them go for a while? Maybe it will be fine tomorrow." Lit suggested.
"That's the only way." Lianka sighed, then stood up, "I'll go buy some food for my sister for tomorrow's breakfast. Let's stop here for today."
"Oh, by the way, Lianka." Just as Lianka was about to turn around and leave, Lit suddenly called her.
"What's wrong?" Lianka turned her head and looked at Lit with a hint of doubt on her face.
"It's just... I told you before, are you going to continue?"
"... I don't know." Lianka was silent for a while, then shook her head.
Judging from the reaction now, her sister undoubtedly cares about Orson.
No matter how slow Lianka is, she can see that if Olivia doesn't like Orson, how can she care about Orson to the point of being unable to sleep and eat?
And how can she be jealous because of a tiny possibility that some girls appear around Orson?
But Lianka still didn't know whether her sister fell in love with Orson from the beginning or she fell in love with Orson slowly over time.
Lianka hoped it was the latter. After all, if it was the former, the scene that Olivia said that she would fulfill the engagement on her behalf would become hypocritical.
My sister would never lie to me, absolutely.
This was Lianka's consistent thought before.
And now, with Olivia's actions, this thought has become: My sister would not lie to me, right?
Orson was lying on the bed. He didn't know how long it had passed before he was awakened by the sound of the door being pushed open.
"Lite?" Orson asked.
"Yes, it's me." Lite nodded, then walked into the room and put a glass of water on Orson's bedside table.
"Orson, I brought you a glass of water. If you feel uncomfortable, drink some. You drank too much."
"Didn't you put anything in this time?" Orson said half-jokingly.
Lite blushed when he heard this.
"No, no... Believe it or not, you can drink it or not." She turned her head away with a red face.
"Lite." Orson didn't care about what Lit said, but asked her a question.
"Tell me, am I a complete villain?"
"Orson, why do you say that?"
"You have been in contact with me for so long, you should also know that many of the things I do are not glorious."
"Frame-up, bribe confidants, torture, murder, these villain tricks, I, who usually maintain a tall and majestic image in front of everyone, play them more familiarly than any inferior villain."
"Will you hate me for this?"
Hearing this, Lit shook his head.
"No, Orson, you have helped me a lot, even if everyone hates you, I will be the last person to support you."
"I didn't teach you to lie, Lit." Orson said this, and his eyes suddenly became clear.
"If one day, I become a demon that harms the world, and if I am not eliminated, the entire human race may perish. If so, will you still choose to help me?"
"..." Litt was silent.
"Good boy, you are right to be silent." Orson saw Litt's reaction and smiled.
He knew that Litt had made a decision in her heart, but her conscience made her not want to say it out loud.
"Orson, you won't be like this." Litt suddenly said.
"You won't be like this, I won't let you become that kind of existence."
"Hehe, you are quite arrogant, but what can you do now? Not to mention me, even Lena has become a mountain you can't climb over, right?"
"So, Orson." At this time, Litt suddenly held Orson's hand.
"Before I grow up to be able to completely protect you, before you have no worries, don't become like that, okay?"
"I will try my best." Orson said this, smiling and nodded.
Of course, it was just talk, Litt didn't know what he meant by this sentence.
Maybe Lit would think that he said this because he thought he would be blinded by greed in the future.
But in fact, it is far more terrible than this.
The name of Paradis is not so easy to bear. The reason why Limusa can shout the title of the son of Paradis after seeing Orson is that the blood in Orson is obviously very powerful and may explode at any time.
Like a time bomb.
Orson is afraid that the world line will converge, and then he will have to use that power in front of everyone.
But after so long, he is no longer afraid of death, or not as afraid as before.
He is more afraid that because of his existence, he will hurt more people he cherishes.
If the current self reveals the bloodline of the devil, Lucius, Lit, Olivia, Chelinina, Lena, Elsa and others will be implicated because of him.
But this knot in his heart cannot be confided to others, so he can only bury it in his heart.
The problem of his life experience and whether there is a hidden danger of an outbreak of bloodline must be investigated as soon as possible.
Chapter 48: Reconciliation
On the other side, in Olivia's room.
Although Olivia closed her door, Lianka still took the initiative to walk into her sister's room.
"Sister, are you in a bad mood?"
"Well, I guess so." Olivia forced a smile, but found that this smile was too hypocritical, and finally nodded.
"Is it because of Orson?"
"...Yes, or not." Olivia said this, pondered for a while, and then shook her head. "I don't know."
"But it must be related to Orson, right?"
"Yeah."
"Sister, you have never lied to me, and I have always believed in you. I want to ask you one thing now. Did you like Orson before?" Lianka said this and sat next to Olivia.
She turned her head and looked into Olivia's eyes, hoping to see through her inner thoughts.
"Lianka...you, why are you asking this suddenly?" Olivia was asked by Lianka, and she was obviously panicked.
"Because you don't act like you don't like Orson. I think you may have liked Orson before, rather than after the surrogate marriage. Of course, all this is just my guess."
"So, sister, is that so?"
"..."Olivia was silent for a while, then nodded.
"Do you hate me? For my own benefit, I deceived you and tricked your excellent fiancé to my side."
"No." Lianka shook her head and then put her arm around Olivia's shoulders.
"Sister, you also know that I don't like Orson. Instead of letting two people who don't like each other be together, it's better to let two people who like each other be together. This is more appropriate, right?"
"But, Orson was originally yours..."
"I've said it all, I don't care about these." Lianka said this and smiled. "Although my sister lied to me about this matter, I know that my sister also considered my feelings when she considered herself, and that's enough."
"Although a white lie is also a lie, the result is good, isn't it?"
"... Thank you, Lianka." Olivia was moved when she heard this.
"But, sister, if I fall in love with Orson and want to take him away from you, will you agree to it?" Lianka suddenly said.
Olivia, who was still moved, froze in an instant.
"Lianka, what did you say?"
"After all, sister, you also said that I am Orson's original fiancée. If I want to repent, will you agree to it?"
Olivia was silent.
"Okay, I lied to you!" Lianka said, waving her hand. "I don't like Orson. Besides, it's too weird that the Duke's two daughters like the same person!"
After that, Lianka patted Olivia on the back.
"Okay, I said all this just to hope that you can cheer up, sister, and don't be so depressed."
"Even if I don't like Orson, there are still a lot of women who like Orson, and there should be many excellent ones among them, right? Don't be dejected when you fight for a man, otherwise you will easily become a loser!" After saying this, Lianka smiled and left Olivia's room.
"Really, Lianka is actually a little adult." Olivia heard Lianka say this and shook her head helplessly.
But between the words, Olivia has regained her spirit.
Yes, just like Lianka said, anxiety alone can't win in this war without gunpowder.
On the other side, Lianka changed into pajamas after returning to her room and lay on the bed with a red face.
She really didn't care that her sister lied to her, after all, she also lied to Olivia.
Just in what she just said to Olivia.
...
The next day, after Orson got up, Lit had prepared breakfast for Orson downstairs.
"Good morning, Orson, how was your rest last night?" Litt seemed to be just about to go to class at this moment. He had already walked to the entrance. After hearing Orson's footsteps coming down the stairs, he turned around and looked at Orson and said.
"Very good." Orson said this and smiled. "Litt, hurry up and go to class."
"Brother Litt! If you don't leave now, you will be late!" Lena's energetic voice sounded outside the door at this time.
Then the door was opened from the outside.
Lena's little head poked in.
After seeing Orson at the stairs, thinking of Orson's state yesterday, Lena couldn't help shrinking her head.
But she still greeted Orson.
"That... big brother, good morning."
"Good morning, Lena." Orson saw Lena's performance and knew what kind of impression he left on people yesterday.
"Okay, Orson, we're leaving first, and you should finish your meal and go out quickly." Litt said this and hurriedly pulled Lena to the classroom.
Looking at the backs of the two, Orson felt a little touched in his heart, and then he sat at the dining table and ate the breakfast prepared by Lit for him.
At this time, there was another knock at the door.
"Please come in." Orson said so, and then the door was opened.
"Excuse me, Orson." Olivia appeared at the door at this time.
Walking into the entrance, she closed the door, then took off her shoes, stepped on the floor and walked towards Orson.
"Olivia?" Orson was stunned when he saw Olivia. "Why are you here..."
At this moment, Orson was still feeling guilty about Olivia, and he didn't know what topic to talk about.
"Can't I come?" Olivia said, smiled, and then sat next to Orson.
"I'm sorry, Orson, it was my fault yesterday." At this time, Olivia took the initiative to apologize. "But, please understand. After all, no matter who it is, when they see their partner being liked by others and they are unable to do anything about it, they will be very...sad."
"No, Olivia, I am the one who should apologize..."
Before Orson finished speaking, Olivia took over.
"Okay, in that case, Orson, your way of apologizing is to stay with me for a day, right? Then I will forgive you mercifully!"
"Huh?" Orson was stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses when he saw Olivia's expression of a little fox who was as successful as ever.
"Pfft, okay, then I promise you." Orson said this and nodded in agreement with Olivia.
The rift between the two people simply disappeared because of this joke or "plot".
Getting back together again.
Chapter 49: Is this your girlfriend?
"However, it seems that there are still classes today. If the two of us just skip class, does it really matter?"
