Firefly, Are You Really Interested in Kissing? / Oak Cake Rolls? Just Give Them All to Firefly
Firefly mimicked Silver Wolf's tone and words, but her gentle voice and emotionless, monotone delivery made the sentence sound more like a coquettish pout.
Lin Shuang smiled helplessly.
No wonder all the messages I sent to Silver Wolf just now were read but not replied to.
This person still hasn't recovered after all this time.
That shouldn't be the case. When did Silver Wolf become this kind of character?
At the same time--
Silver Wolf was currently gritting his teeth and rubbing the controller, manipulating the character on the screen to relentlessly beat his opponent.
He was venting his frustration.
She certainly wouldn't be shy all day long.
The main reason Silver Wolf didn't go online was that she was still angry. She, a genius player from Punklorde, had once again made a huge fool of herself in front of Lin Shuang!
Even though today wasn't a game, she still couldn't accept it!
At this moment, Silver Wolf was fiddling with the controller while secretly plotting how to exact a severe revenge.
Volume 1: Chapter 112 Firefly, are you interested in kissing?
Compared to Silver Wolf, Firefly clearly has less interest in virtual games.
The main reason I was willing to come was because of Lin Shuang, and because I had promised to teach Lin Shuang some practical swordsmanship.
So even though they were logged into the game, the two of them practically immersed themselves in the Immersion arena.
Firefly quickly discovered that although Lin Shuang's foundation was not solid, she was very efficient at learning. So she also taught her some unarmed fighting techniques.
"In fact, this entire tactic, when combined with various individual soldier weapons, will achieve even better results."
During the break, Firefly suddenly brought up the matter.
Lin Shuang sat beside her and asked curiously:
"Is it designed to complement your battle armor? I feel like many of your moves are rather aggressive, is it because of the armor's protection?"
Firefly nodded and sat down on a chair nearby, her knees together. Her skirt slipped down slightly, revealing a perfect "absolute territory" between her over-the-knee socks and short skirt.
"Yes, all the combat techniques I know are designed for killing, so the use of weaponry is not excluded."
"So... most of the rumors about Sam in the Galaxy are about him being taciturn and violently overwhelming."
As she said this, Lin Shuang sat down beside Firefly, propping her elbows on her knees, turning her head to rest her chin on her hand, and smiling as she looked at Firefly's embarrassed face:
"Although I accepted this fact quickly, it's still a little hard to connect you with Sam's image."
Firefly felt a little embarrassed by what was said.
She herself knew this.
But for her, Sam and Firefly were two names she always wanted to distinguish.
Whenever she takes off her mask, Firefly becomes even calmer and more gentle.
When she becomes 'Sam', she will naturally recall the Glamoth Iron Cavalry and remember being Sam's weapon, and instinctively display more intimidation.
"Hmm... that's right. Kafka and Silver Wolf both said the same thing. Silver Wolf even said it's called...'contrast,' and that it will be very popular."
Firefly hugged her knees with both hands, then lowered her head, resting it on her knees, her bright eyes staring directly into Lin Shuang's eyes.
"For me, only when I take off my armor and call myself Firefly do I feel truly alive. But when I put on the armor and become 'Sam,' I feel more like a weapon."
Lin Shuang was first surprised by Firefly's words, then scratched her face with some concern:
"I see, but... is it alright to say something so important to me like this?"
The two had only met a few days ago, but Lin Shuang had a high Affection for Firefly because of the events of her past life.
But to Firefly, Lin Shuang was just someone she had just met.
That's why Lin Shuang was surprised that Firefly would suddenly bring up her matter at this time.
Firefly seemed to blush at Lin Shuang's direct question.
His head slumped on his knees, and he covered his face with his hands.
Through the gaps between her fingers and in places that couldn't be covered, one could still see a slight blush on Firefly's face.
Although it is cute, it is indeed very cute.
But Lin Shuang still found it a little funny; how could she make herself blush with embarrassment?
"Actually... it's because of Silver Wolf. You know, the nature of our work makes it difficult to have friends in real life."
Firefly covered her face with her little hands and began to chatter on and on:
"You know Silver Wolf's personality, she can be quite childish sometimes, but Silver Wolf's been very happy lately. Especially today, when she went out, she brought game equipment for two people. Although she won't admit it, Kafka and I both know she was planning to play with you."
As Lin Shuang listened, she suddenly paused, stunned.
Did Silver Wolf bring gaming equipment for two people during the day?
She had absolutely no idea...
I was urged to get things done as soon as I landed, and then that unexpected thing happened after I finished.
The Silver Wolf ran away as soon as it returned.
So Silver Wolf originally planned to play games with me offline?
Oh no, my conscience is bothering me.
So Silver Wolf was actually looking forward to playing with me offline...?
I shouldn't have teased her afterwards.
This time, when I woke up in the middle of the night and thought about it, I had to curse myself a couple of times, saying, "I deserve to die."
Lin Shuang clutched her chest and remained silent.
Meanwhile, the Firefly, still focused on the distance, didn't notice Lin Shuang's movements and continued speaking:
"And when she came back, although she was sulking, it wasn't a very negative emotion. Silver Wolf is usually so cool, this is the first time I've ever seen Silver Wolf like this."
When the topic turned to something funny, Firefly remembered Silver Wolf's appearance and couldn't help but laugh.
"I think you brought all of these, Lin Shuang. So I wanted to show you myself as well."
How could this girl possibly blush, chuckle, and then launch such a fierce, direct attack all at the same time?
Could this be what Firefly and Sam have in common?
Are you both good at straightforward, high-burst attacks? And do you like using your ultimate skill like a basic attack?
After chuckling as she finished explaining her thoughts, Liu Firefly turned around and saw Lin Shuang with an awkward expression.
What's wrong with you?
"No, I was just a little touched by your sincerity."
"Oh? Is that so? Hehe..."
Firefly had a silly, grinning look on her face, which suddenly made her seem a bit simple-minded.
So Lin Shuang stopped talking and just tilted her head to admire Firefly's smiling face.
There was a brief silence.
As if suddenly remembering something, Firefly looked at Lin Shuang and asked:
"Speaking of which, Kafka said that Silver Wolf came back very early... Did you two separate before even playing the game?"
Seeing that Firefly brought it up herself, Lin Shuang admitted it somewhat embarrassedly.
"Yes, because something unexpected happened, and then I teased her a bit too much, and Silver Wolf ran away in a huff."
"If I had known, I wouldn't have done it. Now I feel really embarrassed."
Firefly, of course, knew what had happened, and her little face turned red.
"It's alright. At most, Silver Wolf will hold a grudge and find a chance to get revenge. He won't really be angry."
"... It's not much better."
Lin Shuang pursed her lips. Being retaliated against by Silver Wolf in such a meticulously planned way wouldn't necessarily be easy; who knows what kind of torment she might face.
Firefly covered her mouth and chuckled, then suddenly asked:
"Um, how exactly did you two kiss? What did it feel like?"
"Huh? Uh... how should I put it? It was an accident, so it was just a normal kiss, and I didn't feel much."
"Oh..."
Lin Shuang's answer clearly did not satisfy Firefly; one could even hear the deep disappointment in her tone.
Seeing this, Lin Shuang blurted out instinctively:
"... Firefly, are you interested in kissing?"
Volume 1: Chapter 113 Oak Cake Roll? Give them all to Firefly!
Lin Shuang swore that she really didn't have any ulterior motives when she said those words.
Just from hearing Firefly's tone, I subconsciously felt that Firefly might care a lot about or be very curious about this kind of thing.
That's why it just slipped out.
But upon hearing this, Firefly couldn't help but feel a little shy.
"There are some..."
What Firefly longs for is not just a simple kiss, but the meaning contained within it.
"I'm quite envious of the atmosphere when Silver Wolf and you are together."
Lin Shuang, who had initially been having some wild thoughts, gradually calmed down under Firefly's words.
Lin Shuang rested her chin on her hand, turning her head to look at Firefly's expression.
Beneath the calm surface, a multitude of conflicting thoughts seemed to be hidden.
What is Firefly thinking right now?
Lin Shuang couldn't help but feel curious.
"Why don't we start by being friends?"
"Friends?"
"Yes, we don't necessarily need to have common interests, nor do we have to do anything together. Just chatting casually and sharing interesting things is enough."
Lin Shuang smiled and explained her imagined relationship to Firefly.
Firefly listened very attentively, but towards the end, she couldn't help but have some doubts:
"Does this really mean they have a close relationship?"
"Of course not."
Firefly asked such a serious question that Lin Shuang couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Upon hearing this answer, Firefly paused for a moment, her eyes widening as she looked blankly at the smiling Lin Shuang.
Resisting the urge to reach out and pinch Firefly's cheek, Lin Shuang continued:
"No relationship can be built overnight. Start with the simplest friendship; there's no need to deliberately meet or deliberately develop feelings for anyone."
Time will be the best soil for feelings to sprout.
"..."
Although Firefly remained silent, the smile on her face betrayed her emotions.
She nodded vigorously.
"Okay, let's start as friends then."
