Chapter 157 A Changeable Relationship (Second Update)

Just as their lips were about to touch, Hawking suddenly stopped and stood up again.

"What am I doing?"

Looking at Wanda on the bed, Hawking calmed down for a few seconds, then turned and walked towards the door.

"They've grown so fast! How can they have grown so much in just a few years?"

He had indeed always treated Wanda like a younger sister, even though they were not related by blood.

In his previous life, his parents divorced and barely cared for him, and he had no siblings.

So in this life, he was still very happy to have a lovely younger sister.

However, everything that happened today made him realize that, as Wanda grew up, his feelings for her seemed to be changing.

Some things touched him and made him feel that spark of attraction.

If their feelings hadn't changed, he would never have felt this way, nor would he have done what he just did; he would only have felt rather awkward.

However, he is a relatively rational person. Even if he finds that his feelings have changed, he will not just follow his own nature. Instead, he will quickly calm down and start to think about the possibilities between him and Wanda.

First, it's still uncertain what Wanda's feelings are for him. If Wanda is only after his brother, then he should cut off these thoughts as soon as possible.

After all, it's only a small beginning, not a deep entanglement, so ending it shouldn't be difficult.

Secondly, if he really does end up with Wanda in the future, what will Elena and Oleg think?

Whether he agrees or disagrees is also important to him.

Other people's opinions didn't matter to him, but he had a special affection for Wanda's family and truly regarded them as family.

Naturally, one cannot disrespect their choices simply because of one's own selfish desires or one's own power.

Finally, Wanda hasn't really grown up yet, so there's no need to rush. Her abilities aren't yet at the point where she can afford to waste time on this.

Perhaps we can wait a few years; time will tell.

If it's truly a two-way street, then he's not inflexible; marrying someone with whom he has a foundation of affection seems like a good choice.

As for Wanda, who will come from the future, as long as he is strong enough, he can handle it.

"Forget it, now is not the time to think about these things. Improving our strength is the most important thing. Only when we are strong enough will we have the confidence to do other things."

As he left the room, Hawking walked and pondered, and finally his heart calmed down again.

However, when he arrived at the door of the medical room again, he couldn't help but turn pale.

The door to the medical room was still locked, which meant that the battle inside might not be over yet.

"Foreigners really know how to have fun, but couldn't they wait until they got back to their rooms tonight to do it?"

Hawking's eye twitched, and he raised his hand and slammed it twice on the door of the medical room. Two very obvious handprints immediately appeared on the special metal door.

The medical room is indeed very soundproof; even a normal knock can't get in.

But even when Hawking nearly smashed the door open, the people inside could still sense the movement.

We didn't do this before because we felt it was unnecessary.

Sure enough, the door to the medical room opened in less than a minute.

"Oh, it's Hawking. I was just doing an experiment. Is there anything I can help you with?"

Phoenix Girl, whose clothes were slightly disheveled, tried her best to adjust her breathing to avoid giving herself away.

"Are you conducting an experiment, a baby-making experiment?"

Hawking replied with a speechless expression:

"Wanda has an upset stomach, get me some painkillers."

"I'll get you some painkillers."

Fearing that Cyclops, who was hiding inside, would be discovered by Hawking, Phoenix did not fully open the door. Instead, she used her mind to retrieve the painkillers from the medicine cabinet.

Reaching out to take the painkillers, Hawking turned to leave, but before departing, he couldn't help but utter a final remark:

"Although this medical room is soundproof, the students have all sorts of unique abilities, and there are always some who are not affected by the soundproofing."

Therefore, it's best to be careful when conducting experiments.

"Thank you, we understand."

When Phoenix heard Hawking's reminder, she was stunned at first and didn't react. But as clever as she was, she quickly realized from the few words Hawking emphasized that he might have discovered her battle with Cyclops.

So embarrassed I almost wanted to crawl into a hole and disappear.

Seeing this, Hawking happily returned to his dormitory.

When you feel awkward, if someone else is even more awkward than you, then you don't feel so awkward anymore.

Meanwhile, inside Wanda's dormitory, the entire room was enveloped in red chaotic energy.

"He's going to kiss me! He's actually going to kiss me! He really does have feelings for me, not just sees me as a little sister. This is just... amazing!"

I'm so happy! If it weren't for my period, Wanda would probably have jumped out of bed and been rocking back and forth.

In fact, she was very clear that Hawking had always only regarded her as a younger sister, and many of her sweet thoughts were just self-comfort.

She quickly came to her senses afterward, just as she had thought it was Hawking confessing his love to her, and that Hawking wanted to do *that* with her.

Upon reflection, I realized it was just a misunderstanding on my part.

It was precisely because she knew that Hawking had always regarded her as a younger sister that she had never truly expressed her feelings.

She knew that the final result would inevitably be failure, and it might even cause the relationship to become estranged.

However, just now, during the brief moment when she pretended to be asleep out of embarrassment, she clearly sensed that Hawking's feelings for her went beyond what he usually felt for her.

Unfortunately, it was just one step away, just one step away.

"It's alright. Although you were only one step away, you've already broken through the most difficult barrier. Hawking, you'll never escape my grasp in this lifetime!"

After laughing heartily a few times, Wanda tried to calm the chaotic energy emanating from her excessive joy, then closed her eyes again, pretending to be asleep, and waited for Hawking to return.

The most skilled hunters always appear as the prey.

"Wanda, wake up, get up and take your medicine, then go back to sleep."

Back in his dorm, Hawking looked at Wanda, who was still fast asleep, poured her some water, prepared her medication, and gently woke her up.

Wanda pretended to be groggy as Hawking fed her her medicine, then hugged him tightly and pressed her body against his.

"Brother, don't go. My stomach still hurts. I want to hold you for a while."

"Okay, I'll hold you, you can go to sleep."

Feeling the softness against his chest, Hawking took a deep breath, tried to clear his mind, gently patted Wanda's back, and attempted to lull her to sleep as soon as possible so he could leave the room.

"Today's bedtime routine is so hard to wait for!"
