The nth time I met my puppet

That night, Nan woke up here again. She was no longer surprised. It was still cold and gloomy, but for some reason, she felt a dull pain in her neck.

Subconsciously, I stroked my neck, but there was no injury. However, goose bumps appeared on my back.

"you're awake?"

The doctor walked over with a smile and draped a blanket over Wan Nan.

"Is it cold? Didn't you say it was cold last time? So this time I made preparations in advance."

Wan Nan looked at him in a daze, as if she didn't expect that he really remembered her last reaction. Such kindness made her feel warm and a little overwhelmed.

But she ignored the question: is there really someone who would care about her so selflessly?

The doctor wanted to help her, but Wan Nan avoided him. San Bing seemed to be very averse to her contact with the doctor, so she had better stay away, otherwise San Bing would be unhappy again...

"No…I'm fine, thank you."

The doctor felt somewhat helpless, but in order not to cause annoyance, he tacitly kept his distance.

As expected, Sanbing was still waiting for her outside the laboratory, with his usual expressionless face. Wannan handed the blanket to the doctor and walked towards Sanbing.

嗏

Wan Nan walked about half a meter away from the scattered soldier and stopped, without moving. She didn't know what to do, nor was she sure whether the scattered soldier had calmed down.

Now…what should I do?

Hug him? Or say sorry?

Before Wan Nan could move, San Bing embraced her in his arms.

“Don’t come to him so impulsively next time… okay.

Whatever it is, just tell me, stop it.

I’ll be worried…”

There was uncontrollable concern and worry in his words. Wan Nan listened silently without saying anything.

Only then did she suddenly realize that this time's skirmishers were really different from the previous two times.

His tolerance and care for her had already exceeded her imagination, but because of her preconceived notions, she always felt resentful towards him.

But even if Sanbing was so tolerant this time, it didn't mean that all the previous things were written off. She still couldn't accept it. She could only say...

She doesn't hate him anymore.

Not hating something doesn’t mean I like it.

In the end, Wan Nan did not struggle or resist, but just answered silently.

"Well... I understand. There won't be a next time..."

The doctor frowned as he watched this scene. This was not the plot he wanted. He hoped that both of them would quarrel hysterically, but unfortunately, it did not happen as he wished.

But the doctor would not let this scene continue, so he took the initiative to step forward.

"Sorry to bother you."

The doctor smiled but did not continue speaking. Instead, he waited for the soldier to let go. The soldier frowned and seemed unhappy, but still let go. Seeing this, the doctor continued speaking.

"I need to remind you that I said medication can only alleviate the symptoms. The body will gradually develop resistance to the medication, and the effectiveness of the medication will become less and less effective. If necessary, I may come to you to research new medications, but the development of new medications may take a long time..."

After the doctor finished speaking, he added another sentence as if talking to himself.

"...I wonder if your body can hold on until then?"

He did it on purpose, as if planting a seed in their hearts.

So... after the Doctor left.

Sanbing held Wan Nan tightly in his arms for a long, long time.

Until a drop of rain fell on the back of Wan Nan's neck, Wan Nan felt a little strange, finally broke free from the embrace, and asked with some confusion.

"It's raining?"

The soldier turned his head away and no expression could be seen, he just hummed in a muffled voice.

"Hmm...it's going to rain soon."

Sanbing took Wannan's hand and went back. Sure enough, it started to drizzle on the way, Wannan thought.

Maybe that drop of rain just now was reminding her that it was about to rain.

……

This incident could barely be considered a stepping stone, and the relationship between the two seemed to have returned to normal. Wan Nan was very happy about this change, and began to try hard to get closer to San Bing, but it seemed to have no effect?

Sanbing maintained an attitude of neither taking the initiative nor rejecting, which made Wan Nan almost anxious to death.

On the contrary, the doctor always cared about her, even though he was always driven away by the stragglers.

But the doctor's medicine seems to be becoming less and less effective.

Wan Nan was becoming more and more anxious, but in the end, she was just anxious in vain. After all, she didn't dare to act out another scene rashly. Was she just going to wait like this?

Until Wan Nan fell asleep suddenly again, she finally couldn't wait any longer. Instead of worrying about it, she might as well try again.

So... she picked a good time period, when the sun was setting, and took in the surrounding scenery. She also wore matching clothes and dressed up specially.

The setting sun shone on Wan Nan, and for a moment, even Sanbing was amazed.

Wan Nan is actually very confident this time. Her acting skills have greatly improved. She doesn't believe that she can't defeat him this time!

Wan Nan was ready, and nervously leaned over to Sanbing's ear and whispered.

"Asan, do you love me?"

Sanbing seemed stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Wannan to ask this. This question was completely beyond his expectations and made his brain freeze for a moment.

His instincts responded before his brain could react.

"Love."

This answer also surprised Wan Nan. For a moment, she almost forgot the words again, but after a moment of hesitation, she continued.

"I love you too."

Wan Nan seemed to be smiling shyly, her eyes avoiding, and she seemed very nervous and happy.

I have to admit that her acting this time is much better than last time, and she really showed the feeling of a young girl in love.

But Sanbing didn't answer, nor was he happy. He just looked straight into Wannan's eyes. It is said that the eyes are the windows to the soul, and eyes can indeed express a lot of emotions.

"No, you don't love me."

Sanbing said it with certainty, frowning and looking very unhappy. He still couldn't see love in her eyes, but more of pretense and calculation.

Wan Nan thought her disguise was perfect, but San Bing had seen how she loved him, so how could he not see through her disguise?

The corners of Wan Nan's mouth twitched, and the expression on her face was almost unable to hold back. She froze for a moment, lowered her head and pretended to be a little sad, then pinched her thigh hard, tears suddenly appeared in her eyes, and then she looked up at him with tears in her eyes.

"You don't believe me? But you were the first to admit it."

Sanbing looked directly into Wannan's eyes and finally asked the question he had always wanted to ask.

"Why...? Why can't we be sincere to each other? Why have I never seen even a hint of love in your eyes?

Why... don’t you love me? "

Wan Nan was almost stunned. She never thought that even though she disguised herself so well, she could still be seen through. She cursed in her heart.

"Fuck, how can you tell that? Of course I don't love you. You've screwed me twice, and you still want me to love you? That's a nice thought."

(According to normal people's thinking, it is impossible to like someone who has hurt you so easily. Okay, I will still ask for rewards as usual.)
