"Then get ready," the man said helplessly.
"Wait a moment." Just as the man was about to leave, the woman suddenly grabbed him.
"What is it?" The man turned around, only to find that the woman looked somewhat embarrassed. He could not help but freeze slightly.
"I... I'm confessing to you!" The woman's face actually turned red. Usually stern and reserved, she now showed a rare hint of bashfulness.
"Ah?"
The man was stunned.
This... isn't a dream, is it?
He stood there blankly, never having expected something like this to happen.
Whether it was family background or ability, he was a level below her. With his conditions, he had never thought he had any chance of pursuing her.
Yes, he had liked this girl for a long time.
Everyone was serious at work on ordinary days, so he had kept those feelings hidden in his heart.
He had also noticed that other people had pursued her. Those people were all outstanding, yet every one of them had failed.
Compared to them, what did he have?
"Y-you're joking, right? You like someone like me?"
"You really are stupid." The woman let out a long sigh. "If I hadn't worked behind the scenes, you would never have had the chance to join Dusk. Likewise, it was because of my help that you were able to stay comfortably in this department. For an ordinary person like you, who would be willing to do something like this unless they truly liked you?"
The man stared at her blankly, still somewhat dazed.
Perhaps the joy had hit him so hard that he could no longer think.
"You don't want to?"
"I... of course I do," he hurriedly said.
What kind of blessing from heaven was this? The person he liked actually liked him too.
