Quick Transmigration: What to Do When the Male Supporting Character You Saved Becomes Obsessed with

Liao Tingyuan shouldn't be like this.

What should Liao Tingyuan be like? Lu Liruan asked herself in her heart.

Was he always the quiet and reserved person he was when we first met and didn't know each other well, making him seem detached from everything?

Is it that when the two of them face difficulties together, they are always calm and reliable, as if they are not afraid of anything and nothing can affect their emotions?

Lu Liruan realized that she had thought many times in the past: if only she could understand Liao Tingyuan a little more.

If only I could get closer to him, not in terms of physical distance, but in terms of spirit and connection.

If only I could understand him better... and know his feelings better.

Lu Liruan suddenly realized that this might be the moment she had been waiting for.

Liao Tingyuan is no longer as composed and brave as he once was, no longer like a teacher or even an elder; he now treats himself with a different attitude.

When he faces himself, he feels uneasy, fearful, expectant... experiencing emotions that are difficult to understand and seem inexplicable.

Lu Liruan's heart was pounding...

He finally met the extraordinary Liao Tingyuan.

His unusual behavior stemmed from himself, not from others. He wouldn't have such feelings for others, nor would he be so conflicted because of them. If it weren't for himself, Liao Tingyuan would probably have continued as usual.

His unique changes and transformations are all due to himself.

Thinking of this… Lu Liruan clenched the hem of her clothes, her heart surging with emotion. She didn’t know how to express her feelings at this moment, so she could only look at Liao Tingyuan’s face and fall into the surging emotions.

She unconsciously stared at Liao Tingyuan's face, unable to put it into words... Liao Tingyuan had always been handsome, Lu Liruan had always known that.

But at this moment, Lu Liruan felt that this was the first time she had seen Liao Tingyuan's face so clearly, not just his features, but a different kind of clarity.

As if the fog had lifted, Liao Tingyuan was finally just like himself, living in a world that was both calm and turbulent, moving forward day by day.

He was no longer like a still painting, standing there calmly. He took a step forward, walked to my side, and walked with me...

Liao Tingyuan felt somewhat embarrassed under Lu Liruan's gaze, and his ear tips turned bright red in the dim light of the living room.

The fact that he was so much older than the girl made him feel uneasy and burdened.

Why was he so agitated, unable to resist saying these things to the young girl, even though... these were the things he truly wanted to say?

But at this moment, he couldn't help but hold his breath, waiting for the girl's response.

To hand everything over to the other party, without reservation or defense, allowing them to examine and judge.

Whether it's good or bad, whether you receive forgiveness and pardon or are blamed and disliked, it's all up to the other person.

When he said those words, he gave Lu Liruan that right. He was willing to do so, as long as he could clearly express that he had no malicious intent, but was only selfishly deceiving her.

His selfishness made him feel guilty... and made him unable to hold his head up in front of a girl so much younger than him at his age.

But Liao Tingyuan does not regret the emergence of this relationship. This unspeakable emotion makes him anxious and restless, but it also creates a delicate taste that is both bittersweet.

Just this feeling alone made Liao Tingyuan feel... that he was truly living, unlike the life he had lived before, full of changes that were hard to describe.

Liao Tingyuan's gaze met Lu Liruan's, he looked away several times, but couldn't help looking back.

Lu Liruan had been silent for almost half a minute.

Liao Tingyuan's impulsiveness from swimming earlier gradually subsided, leaving him unsure of how to face the situation. What if the young girl was annoyed by his actions and words? How would he end things today?

Older, more mature people always think of ways to back down and maintain basic dignity and respect, but today Liao Tingyuan didn't know what to do, so he could only remain silent with Lu Liruan.

The young girl said she didn't want to argue with him about right and wrong because it was unnecessary, or because he had already disappointed and annoyed her. Liao Tingyuan felt bitter inside.

"Teacher Liao... is there anything else you want to say to me?" Lu Liruan heard her voice was a little soft. The sudden realization caught her off guard. What she wanted to see and get from Liao Tingyuan came too suddenly. Lu Liruan hadn't even fully reacted after hearing Liao Tingyuan's words.

Instead, halfway through her outburst of anger, she suddenly realized that this feeling of being stuck in the middle left Lu Liruan unsure how to turn things around.

Now, suddenly, she says, "Teacher Liao, the fact that you can tell me all this... that you can think so much about me, and even do things that are completely out of character for you, is something I've always wanted... Although I was angry just now, and I really was, I was also very happy..."

Wouldn't saying this make Liao Tingyuan think he's unpredictable and has something wrong with his head?

So Lu Liruan subconsciously asked Liao Tingyuan if there was anything else to say... Actually, Lu Liruan wanted to hear Liao Tingyuan tell her what he thought and how much he valued her, which gave Lu Liruan a dream-like sense of unreality.

"I... I have nothing more to say."

However, Liao Tingyuan did not understand her meaning, and a bitter look appeared on his face.

He felt this was Lu Liruan's interrogation, and Lu Liruan probably only felt disgust and impatience with what he said.

Indeed... Liao Tingyuan himself found such a strange and selfish idea unbelievable.

When he was talking to An Tang, he used the guise of doing what was best for Lu Liruan, speaking in a grand and righteous manner, but it was all nonsense... In reality, it wasn't like that at all. He wasn't that kind or benevolent... Liao Tingyuan felt that Lu Liruan was so angry with him, and that she might leave his life completely soon. This was probably retribution for his selfishness and lack of consideration for others.

One should not do bad things, should not have bad thoughts... One should be kind, should be selfless, should... should be tolerant of everything, considerate of others, and free from selfish desires...

In Liao Tingyuan's mind, like a media player, were playing a set of rules that hadn't appeared in a long time but had never disappeared, like a spell.

Lu Liruan did not notice that Liao Tingyuan's expression gradually became indifferent, and the emotions in his light-colored eyes were about to recede like the tide.

I shouldn't have lost my temper like that!

Just as Liao Tingyuan was about to fall into a vortex buried deep in his heart, he suddenly heard Lu Liruan's voice.

Clear and loud, as if a rope had pulled Liao Tingyuan back, everything around him that had been blurry became clear again.

Liao Tingyuan felt as if he had escaped weightlessness and was now sitting on the sofa, in front of Lu Liruan.

The two were very close, close enough to see the subtle changes in the girl's expression. Her eyes were bright, her eyelashes trembled, and a smile appeared at the corner of her eyes.

"Ok?"

Liao Tingyuan was not used to her change in mood for a while.

Lu Liruan didn't really want to laugh, but when she thought about what Liao Tingyuan had just said, she couldn't help but smile.

It wasn't that Lu Liruan denied her anger just now; she just felt that... after the anger subsided, the excitement of hearing Liao Tingyuan explain why he had done those infuriating things, knowing Liao Tingyuan's thoughts, and touching on Liao Tingyuan's true feelings overshadowed her previous anger.

“Teacher Liao, although I was really angry just now, I’m very happy that you’re willing to tell me your true thoughts and the feelings you didn’t originally intend to let me know.”

Lu Liruan nodded: "Being angry is being angry, and being happy is being happy. These two things cannot be confused."

Seeing Liao Tingyuan's puzzled expression, Lu Liruan coughed lightly: "If I had known what you were thinking beforehand, I wouldn't have been angry when I saw your actions later."

Lu Liruan raised an eyebrow defiantly: "But I can't know what you're thinking beforehand, can I? I can only tell you what you're thinking after I see your actions, get angry, and then question you... and you'll be hesitant and reluctant to tell me..."

Lu Liruan added two adjectives after Liao Tingyuan to describe him.

"So it's perfectly normal for me to be angry with you." Lu Liruan nodded to show her affirmation.

Lu Liruan didn't think that what she was saying was wrong at all. That's just how it is. If the order of events wasn't wrong, why would she be so angry?

Fortunately, Lu Liruan is good at speaking and is not stingy or resistant to expressing herself. Whether it is good or bad, as long as Lu Liruan wants to say it, she will say it.

Even if she was wrong, Lu Liruan would not deny her mistakes, because in Lu Liruan's understanding, only by being honest with herself, honest with others, and honest with life can she find peace of mind and live a life free from inner torment.

She used to be willing to tell Liao Tingyuan about her troubles in life and the pain of growing up, because that would make her feel better and she would receive comfort and strength from Liao Tingyuan.

The same applies now. Lu Liruan will not hide her thoughts, nor will she bury things in her heart and let them ferment to the point of being out of control.

“I got angry this time, but I also understand what you're thinking, so I'll be more understanding next time. And since you saw I was angry, you won't do anything to upset me again, right? So what happened today wasn't entirely a bad thing!” Lu Liruan straightened out her logic.

Then he asked Liao Tingyuan, "Is that so?"

Liao Tingyuan didn't quite react.

Lu Liruan lowered her voice and asked suspiciously, "You wouldn't deliberately do something to make me angry again next time, knowing I'll get angry, would you?"

"Teacher Liao, you're not deliberately trying to cause trouble, are you?"

Liao Tingyuan: ...

"will not."

Liao Tingyuan would definitely not do that again. This time, being discovered by Lu Liruan, besides feeling apprehensive, Liao Tingyuan also felt a sense of relief. After all, he really didn't know what to do. Perhaps being discovered by Lu Liruan was also an opportunity for him to completely face his own thoughts and for him to have a proper discussion with Lu Liruan about his various feelings.

A voice just now echoed in Liao Tingyuan's mind: Just say it all... Maybe this is the only chance he'll have to tell the little girl these feelings.

“When I was angry just now, I said some things in the heat of the moment…” Lu Liruan blinked.

“We won’t break off our friendship… right, Teacher Liao?” Lu Liruan looked at him: “I don’t want to leave you.”

Lu Liruan said sincerely.

Originally, he thought Liao Tingyuan could sense his dependence on him, but now he realized that Liao Tingyuan seemed to have never thought that no matter what environment he was in or what he went through, he would not easily leave him.

Because this is a special existence.

It has nothing to do with anything else, nothing to do with the danger of the mission, nothing to do with the mystery that has no end, nothing to do with age, and nothing to do with the mission itself...

I just want to be with him forever.

Liao Tingyuan looked into Lu Liruan's eyes and saw her lips move, but the sound seemed to be a beat slow before reaching his ears.

It produces a distorted effect.

It's totally unreal.

The first time someone said to him: I don't want to leave you.

Liao Tingyuan had never heard such a thing before.

He had never asked or made any demands... Even today, Liao Tingyuan never imagined that he would hear Lu Liruan say such a thing to him.

Lu Liruan thought he hadn't understood: "What I said just now wasn't what I really meant. I didn't want to break up with you, nor did I want to stop partnering with you. Teacher Liao, you wouldn't believe so easily that our friendship, built on fighting side by side, is so fragile, would you?"

Seeing that Liao Tingyuan still seemed a little dazed, Lu Liruan tried to lighten the mood by joking, "You don't trust me!"

"No." Liao Tingyuan lowered his head, his slightly long hair obscuring his expression, but Lu Liruan sensed something was amiss. His voice was faint: "I didn't distrust you... I just didn't believe I could make you forgive me, make you do this for me... do this for me..." He didn't finish his sentence.

Lu Liruan noticed a slight tremor in the last syllable of his voice.

Then Lu Liruan twisted her neck and shoulders, trying to bury her head under Liao Tingyuan's face to observe his expression.

"Crying...crying?" Lu Liruan winced as the gesture made her grimace. "Really?"

Fortunately, Liao Tingyuan did not cry.

Lu Liruan breathed a sigh of relief. She had thought she had made someone cry! She was truly unfilial then…

It shouldn't be described as unfilial.

Feeling Lu Liruan staring at him from below, Liao Tingyuan involuntarily sat up, because the posture the two of them were in was rather strange.

“Teacher Liao, I’m happy for you, I’m angry for you, I think this job is not bad for you, and I think my life is not bad for you. It’s all right.” Lu Liruan sat forward and said sincerely, “Because it is indeed because of you… I feel very happy now. Even if I’m not as happy as I am today or yesterday in the future, it should still be a good day for me.”

"So... stop thinking that we will separate and leave each other's lives."
