Chapter 130 Digging a Hole for Oneself? (Second Update)

"Several years?"

Wanda was taken aback when she heard Susan's words.

Have Stephen Hawking and Susan been together for several years?

That's impossible! Hawking was only twelve or thirteen years old a few years ago. If only the two of them had been together back then, Susan would be a monster!

"Yes, actually, Dr. Reed, who was in the office just now, and I were lovers in college, but we broke up a few years ago."

When we met again this time, I kept thinking about whether we should start over.

But Wanda, after listening to what you just said, I feel it's unnecessary. It's time to let go of the past and start a new life.

I didn't expect Wanda, at such a young age, to have such insightful views on relationships.

Susan explained with some emotion.

Whether it was because of what Wanda had just said or because of some unseen force, she now felt that Wanda was particularly kind and trustworthy.

So he blurted out what had happened between him and Reed.

"Walter?"

Wanda froze on the spot.

After all that, it turns out the person Susan was talking about wasn't Hawking at all, but Dr. Reed.

Could it be that I've made a mistake?

Wouldn't that mean I'd broken up Susan and Dr. Reed?

"Actually, I was just saying it casually, Susan, you don't need to take my words so seriously, hahaha."

Wanda released Susan's hand and awkwardly scratched the back of her head.

I'm sorry, Dr. Reed, I didn't mean it. Besides, I only said a few words casually, and Susan decided to give up on you. It's definitely not my fault.

Wanda silently apologized to Dr. Reed in her heart, and her mood immediately improved.

Although it was a misunderstanding, at least Hawking and Susan didn't end up together, which made her very happy.

"Actually, I think your brother Stephen Hawking is quite good. He's handsome, has a great physique, and gives off a mature and steady vibe. He's also a superhero who saves the world. Maybe I can consider it."

Just then, Susan suddenly said something with a glint in her eye.

"No, you two aren't a good match. My brother is only sixteen; he's not an adult yet!"

Upon hearing Susan's words, Wanda felt a jolt of fear. She realized she was in trouble; it seemed she had dug a hole for herself, a huge one at that.

Originally, it might have just been that Hawking had some feelings for Susan, but Susan loved Reed, so it was highly unlikely that they would end up together.

Now, after her own persuasion, Susan has let go of her feelings for Reed and has instead become interested in Hawking.

In the end, she herself became the Cupid who cleared the way for the two and acted as a matchmaker. Wanda, what exactly did you do today?!

"Sixteen years old! I really didn't realize that Hawking was still a minor."

Susan was also shocked when she learned Hawking's age.

Although Hawking looked relatively young, his physique, speech, and demeanor made it hard to believe he was a minor.

In addition, there were the earth-shattering things he did, such as creating the League of Legends International and defeating Apocalypse to save human civilization.

"It's okay, I can wait two years. Two years isn't a long time, and it'll give me more time to learn more."

"Sister Susan, actually I think Dr. Reed..."

Wanda grabbed Susan's hands again, then prepared another set of words to see if she could win back Susan and Dr. Reed's relationship.

But Susan interrupted her with a smile:

"Okay, I'm not teasing you anymore. I was just joking with you."

Wanda, tell your sister, do you like Stephen Hawking?

Stephen Hawking was indeed outstanding, but he was so outstanding that he was almost like a great man. Extraterrestrials who could save all of human civilization could easily destroy a city.

Such beings are not easily loved by ordinary people; they are more likely to be respected and admired.

She had only met Hawking twice, how could she possibly like him? To be honest, she was still a little afraid of Hawking, afraid of the terrifying power contained in his body.

Being too close to Hawking can instinctively create a sense of pressure, a pressure that's hard to describe.

It's like a low-latitude creature getting close to a high-latitude creature.

She just said those things to tease Wanda.

As a woman, a mature woman, from the moment they met at the launch pad until now, she had vaguely sensed Wanda's special feelings for Hawking.

That doesn't seem like familial love; it's more like familial love that has turned into romantic love.

As expected, she figured it out immediately after just one test.

"I...I...no...I...that...this..."

Wanda, who had been speaking eloquently just moments before, was somewhat taken aback when Susan directly revealed her secret. Her face flushed red, and she began to stammer and stutter.

It's impossible for her to say she doesn't like it against her will, but admitting it is something her shyness prevents her from doing.

"I already know. Have you told him how you feel?"

As someone who's been through it all, Susan immediately understood what Wanda's behavior meant, and she instantly became gossipy.

Seeing that Susan had seen through her, Wanda lowered her head and replied softly:

"No, I've never said that directly. He just treats me like a younger sister."

"Why not just tell him directly? If you like someone, you should be bold and pursue them. Confessing doesn't necessarily have to be something only the boy does; the girl can take the initiative too."

Susan smiled and encouraged her.

Wanda, however, shook her head:

"Sister Susan, the situation is different."

She knew very well that Hawking only doted on her like a younger sister and had no romantic feelings for her. If she confessed her feelings to Hawking at this time, she would definitely fail.

There will be a rift between them then, and they will no longer be as close as they are now.

Moreover, she had only just found out what type of girl Hawking liked, and she didn't meet his requirements yet.

Instead of blindly confessing her feelings, she believed that she should take it slow and that as long as she put in enough effort, Hawking would eventually come to like her.

Actually, she and Susan are different. The things she said to persuade Susan at the beginning were not her true feelings.

In her heart, loving someone doesn't need any reason. As long as she likes someone, she's willing to risk everything, even if it's like a moth drawn to a flame, or even if the world is destroyed.

"It's almost time; you should set off now."

Seeing that Susan was about to continue gossiping, Wanda quickly changed the subject.

Susan checked the time and realized it was almost time. She stopped gossiping about Wanda and Hawking's relationship and escorted Wanda back to the VIP room.

"What's wrong? You don't seem happy."

Susan and Doom boarded the space shuttle, Reed went to the command center to make remote decisions, and Hawking took Wanda to the observation deck to watch the space shuttle take off.

However, he noticed that Wanda seemed somewhat distracted.

"Hawking, did you come to the ceremony because you like Sister Susan?"

Wanda looked up at Hawking and asked in a serious tone.
