My older sister is a villainous rich girl

"Does love need to be proven through hurt?" he asked, puzzled.

As he approached, Ge Li's cold expression began to crumble.

She stubbornly bit her lower lip.

"if not?"

She said sarcastically, "To be willing to risk your life for Chris, even with this level of pain, you must be happy to endure it, right?"

Wayne stopped in front of her.

Ge Li was like a hedgehog curled up, pointing its sharp quills at him who wanted to get closer.

But what was clearly conveyed in her eyes was an undisguised pain.

Without saying a word, Wayne grabbed her hand and pressed it against his wound.

"You!" Ge Li exclaimed in surprise, "What are you doing?!"

“Didn’t you say you’d prove it with hurt?” Wayne said. “So, let Miss Gosling see for herself that you can hurt me too.”

Ge Li laughed angrily, "You think I'd feel sorry for you?"

"It's best if it doesn't hurt."

He pulled suddenly, and Ge Li didn't react in time, his hand was pulled away.

I touched that horrible scar.

"If it can make Miss Ge Li happy, this level of pain is nothing to me."

Wayne's wounds, which had begun to heal, started to reopen.

"You are crazy!"

Looking at him in disbelief, Ge Li's tears suddenly streamed down his face.

Chapter 149 Then be shameless!

"If I'm really crazy, then Miss Ge Li deserves at least half the credit."

"How come I never noticed before... that you are such a despicable person?" Ge Li's voice trembled.

“Now is a good time to get to know each other again,” Wayne said without changing his expression.

Yes.

People with soft hearts are always more easily blackmailed.

Wayne released her hand.

"Don't worry, I won't hug you. The blood will stain your clothes."

He walked back to the resting bed provided for patients and painstakingly cleaned his wounds in front of the mirror.

Fortunately, it wasn't his dominant hand that was injured, otherwise this posture would have been very awkward.

At the doorway, Ge Li murmured, "You've already... soiled me, and now you're saying these things? Don't you think that's going too far?"

Wayne's hand hesitated for a moment.

"sorry."

But he quickly added, "However, I may not be able to correct it, and I might make the same mistake again."

"because--"

“I really like Miss Gothic Edgeworth,” he said.

"I don't like it because I want to do...that kind of thing. Even if I can't do it in the future, I will continue to like it."

Last time, seeing her so heartbroken and questioning herself, I realized it would be a lie to say I wasn't affected.

He truly enjoyed his closeness with Ge Li.

However, that affection was not fake.

Have I been only thinking about my own thoughts all along, while neglecting her feelings?

Contrary to her own secret plans to escape at any time, she carried a burden far heavier than she had ever imagined.

Under such circumstances, Ge Li still did those things that... could even be described as a complete betrayal of the family, and must have been filled with guilt and unease.

As a result, he kept demanding more and more from her, forcing her to give more and more.

So, it's inevitable that you'll resent yourself, right?

"I almost didn't make it back this time," he changed the subject.

After calming down a bit, Ge Li came over, took the ointment from his hand, and carefully applied it to him.

“I heard it from my father.”

Wayne listened quietly as she did as she pleased.

However, nothing more was said after those few words.

Therefore, Wien knew that Mr. Franz probably hadn't said anything nice.

“There must be a mole within the city guard,” he said with certainty.

Miss Ge Li in the mirror had her brows furrowed, her attention now focused on the case.

"Where did those people come from, so audacious as to act so recklessly?" she muttered to herself in bewilderment.

“They are the remnants of the annexed Duchy of Milistan, and their goal is to disrupt the current political situation in the capital,” Wayne reminded him.

"Those people's primary targets should be the participants in the War of Fog Moon, and secondly, important figures related to the current situation of the kingdom. Therefore, even you and your father should pay close attention to whether there are any suspicious people around you."

Ge Li wrapped a clean bandage around his neck.

"You seem to know a lot about this."

"This is a matter of life and death for me, so I've gathered some information through special means." He subtly hinted that he had other sources of information.

She tied a small bow at the end of the bandage and gently smoothed it out.

When those gentle yet icy hands left my chest, a feeling of reluctance welled up within me.

“That’s fine,” she said.

Wayne replied with a thank you.

"Has Chris done something like this before?" she suddenly asked.

Wayne's expression froze as the unexpected shot hit the bullseye.

How am I supposed to answer that?

After a few seconds of silence and no response, Ge Li's expression dimmed for a moment.

Seeing that she was disappointed and wanted to leave the infirmary, Wayne suddenly stepped forward and hugged her from behind.

After a moment of surprise, Ge Li tried to break free.

Wayne whispered in her ear, "Just a hug, nothing else."

The struggles in her arms gradually subsided, and she eventually calmed down.

The two of them hugged quietly for a while.

“Wayne…do you think I’ll forgive you no matter what?” she asked, looking slightly bewildered.

"No."

He said sullenly, "I just wanted... even if Miss Ge Li wouldn't forgive me, I just wanted you to stay by my side."

"That's too cunning of you to say something like that."

“Yes, I’m cunning,” Wayne said resignedly. “It would be tough to be liked by someone as cunning as me.”

"But I can't let go anymore."

"I can't even imagine that someone else might take my place in your life in the future."

"Since... it was Miss Kareem who gave me the opportunity first, then please, in the future, continue to accept my affections, okay?"

His voice was so soft it seemed as if it might disappear at any moment.

Wayne knew that once such words were uttered, only the word "shameless" could describe them.

But if only shamelessness can keep her...

Then be shameless.

Ge Li fell silent.

Standing behind her, Wayne couldn't see her face.

He simply held her silently, trying to etch every subtle feeling he had at that moment into his heart.

The infirmary was so quiet that you could clearly hear their heartbeats.

"Don't do that kind of thing again," she said with difficulty.

"—Write to me."

……

Does this count as tacit agreement?

After Miss Geli left, Wayne remained standing there in a daze for a long time.

write a letter?

What kind of letter is needed?

love letter?

He returned to the classroom with a complicated expression.

“Wayne!” Gavin’s eyes lit up when he saw him, and he immediately pulled him aside.

Before speaking, he made a point of glancing around to see if any other classmates had noticed him.

“Wayne, tell me…” Gavin winked at him, “Aren’t we good brothers?”

"..."

Wayne said listlessly, "If you're a brother, come and chop me up."

"Tsk, who's going to chop you up!"

Gavin was getting impatient: "Good brother, just one question... will you help me or not?"

"How can I help you?"

Seeing him so restless and agitated, like an ant on a hot pan, Wayne instinctively knew it wasn't a good thing.

Gavin blushed slightly. "I've fallen for a girl."

Upon hearing this, an alarm instantly went off in Wayne's mind.

He stared at Gavin with a hostile expression, thinking that if Gavin uttered the names of Chris or Geli, he would immediately show him what it meant to "stab your brother in the back."

"Who?"

Gavin was very shy and beckoned Wayne to come closer.

Seeing his actions, Wayne's lips twitched.

"Forget it, you don't need to tell me. I'm not interested in knowing."

After saying that, he turned around and was about to return to his seat.

"Hey, hey, hey..." Gavin hurriedly stopped him, "I'll talk, I'll talk, okay?"

Under Wayne's gaze, he confessed in a voice barely above a whisper:

“I… have fallen in love with Miss Molly.”

I never said anything like what was said in Chapter 150.

Gavin Warren is a good friend of Prince Richard.
