See You Again, Robin
Medical Center.
"Ouch, that hurts!"
Lily winced and cried out in pain as Adam wiped the sting wound on her.
"Adam, be gentle."
Marshall, as Adam's fiancé, was heartbroken and kept urging Adam on, wishing he could push Adam away and do it himself.
"Stop pretending, Lily."
Adam retorted, "It doesn't hurt that much. Don't lie through your teeth just so you can see Marshall's pained expression."
"Lily?"
Marshall looked at Lily in disbelief.
I'm so sorry~
Lily looked at Marshall with seductive eyes.
"Okay, I forgive you."
Marshall looked at Lily and saw that the melancholy and distraction of the past few days were gone from her eyes. It was as if they had returned to the time when they first met, when they exchanged glances and knew that they both wanted each other's bodies.
That thrill is back, it feels so good!
"Alright, once I've cleaned you up and prescribed some medicine, you can go back."
Adam naturally saw their flirting and was happy for them, but he still complained with a look of disgust, "When the time comes, as long as you don't touch the wound, you can do whatever you want, just don't show off your love here."
"Hey-hey."
Marshall chuckled.
"What are you saying!"
Lily exaggeratedly expressed the reserve and shyness that a girl should have.
But unfortunately, she is Lily!
This performance is so fake.
"Marshall, it seems you should thank these bees."
Adam saw that after Lily's ideals repeatedly hit a wall, she finally realized that it was better to cherish the people in front of her and completely let go of those unrealistic dreams, and couldn't help but sigh.
"We should."
Marshall also sighed with emotion.
Some time ago, he was both worried and saddened by his lover's hesitation and restlessness.
Now, the clouds have finally parted and the moon is shining brightly.
He was indeed very grateful to the bees.
Because they didn't give Lily a timely and severe lesson, who knows when Lily would have realized what was happening.
Keep in mind, their wedding is only a month away.
Everything was prepared; invitations had been sent out long ago; relatives and friends had coordinated their work and taken time off months ago to fly over for their wedding.
If it can't be held in time, it will have a bad influence on Lily among her relatives and friends.
That's right!
At this point, his biggest worry was affecting Lily's image, and he wanted to make Lily the most perfect in the eyes of his family and friends as much as possible.
Only when Lily is as perfect as possible in the eyes of her family and friends can Lily get along better with them and truly integrate into the Ericksen Family.
A harmonious family brings prosperity!
"Come on, Adam!"
Lily complained, "They stung me so badly, and we're supposed to be grateful to them?"
"Why not?"
Adam laughed and said, "There's a novel in the East Country called The Return of the Condor Heroes. The love between the male and female protagonists in it is all thanks to these bees."
"What?"
Lily immediately became interested and pressed Adam for details about the story.
While cleaning Lily's wounds, Adam briefly recounted the story of the Condor Heroes to the couple.
"Look, the female protagonist has had a deep connection with bees since childhood. Sixteen years later, she reunites with the male protagonist by embroidering words on bee wings. Shouldn't they be grateful to those bees?"
Wow! What a beautiful love story!
Upon hearing this, Lily's eyes immediately became magical. She raised her hand and looked at the red dot on it, no longer feeling pain or ugliness, but instead feeling that it was a beautiful blessing.
"Don't overthink it!"
Adam immediately guessed what Lily was thinking and quickly interrupted, "The Condor Heroes is a legendary world with mysterious powers. Moreover, the female protagonist started beekeeping from a young age, which led to that extraordinary encounter. Don't think nonsense, or you'll get stung again later. Besides, do you want to be separated from Marshall for sixteen years?"
"No!"
"Don't want!"
Marshall and Lily immediately exclaimed in unison.
So that's why.
Adam laughed and said, "They got married because they embroidered words of reunion on the bee's wings, while you got married because Lily was stung by a bee, and you both had a change of heart. It's a similar story, and each has its own wonderful moments. No one should envy anyone else."
"That's right."
Marshall grabbed Lily's hand.
"Um."
Lily looked back at him tenderly. "I want to tell this story at the wedding; it will be so beautiful..."
At this point, she looked at Adam and said, "By the way, what's the name of this story? I'll go buy it and read it."
"I want to see it too."
Marshall chimed in, "I'm also very interested in this relationship."
"Well."
Adam paused, unsure of what to say.
The story of the Condor Heroes is indeed very romantic... It would be better if it didn't have the dragon knight part.
I wonder if Marshall can accept this?
He remembered how devastated he was when Lin Wanyu spoiled this part of Guan Gu Shenqi Gu's story back then.
Although Marshall is a very open-minded United States, his views on love still lean towards the Eastern ideal of a lifelong, monogamous relationship, so he probably can't accept this.
Because Adam remembered that Marshall was extremely jealous, just like first lovers in the East Country, and he cared a lot about the fact that each other's first time was with the other person.
Marshall used to say this with great pride and certainty.
But when Robin's sister Kelly came to visit, Marshall and Lily took Kelly on a tour of New York, and they discussed this issue.
Then Marshall realized that Lily's definition of him differed from his in some respects.
The two had a very unpleasant falling out at one point.
That's unbearable, let alone the dragon knight part.
"What's wrong?"
Marshall and Lily looked at Adam with curiosity.
"Nothing."
Adam's mind raced. Not wanting to upset them on their upcoming wedding day, he tried to cover it up by saying, "That's East Country novel, it's not translated, you won't understand it. If you want to know, come to the bar tonight, and I'll explain it to you in detail."
Emmm.
When he translates it, he can just delete this heartwarming scene.
"That's okay too."
Marshall and Lily had no objections upon hearing this.
There's nothing I can do; I can't understand the East Country Language. They're not Howard or Sheldon.
Howard and Sheldon also spoke very poorly; to put it in professional terms, it was like speaking mute Chinese—the kind of Chinese that doesn't even pass a level four proficiency test.
"OMG! Lily!"
Just then, a familiar exclamation rang out.
"Robin!"
Lily smiled at the newcomer, then couldn't help but glance at Adam beside her.
"Robin ..."
Adam also looked at the newcomer and gave an awkward smile.
"Lily, what's wrong with you?"
The newcomer was Robin. She didn't even glance at Adam, but stared at Lily's wounds, and scolded, "You're not still trying those weird dreams, are you?"
"Yes, but this is the last time, and you don't know, even though I got stung once, I'm actually very happy..."
Lily pulled Robin aside and started chattering away, laughing heartily as they talked.
Marshall winked at Adam.
Adam grinned, remaining silent as he continued to clean Lily's wounds.
