Someone in Honkai, with Bouncing Warehouse as a Cheat, Chapter 36

Before this, she thought the surface personality of Sie was weak and that Sie could even be intimate with Bronya. Unable to bear it, she went to provoke and bully Bronya.

But what happened later?

Later, she was beaten half to death by "Sie." After suffering torment in both body and mind, Old Man Xing became afraid of Sie and would only walk around her.

Since she had learned from past experience, Ren Yu didn't dare to easily anger this "weak woman" who could blast open the Sea of Quantum's boundary with seven punches.

Seeing the tense situation, "Sie" suddenly showed a struggling expression. Her eyes gradually turned from red to blue, indicating that her surface personality was suppressing her inner personality.

Then, Ren Yu heard a strange voice.

"Stop it, I won't come out then. If you keep going like this, you'll hurt yourself!"

Inner Sie clutched her head, as if fighting against something.

She let out a low growl. Although unwilling, she gave up control of her body because she didn't want to hurt her other self.

Finally, Sie completely regained control of her body.

"I, I'm sorry."

After fully waking up, the first thing she did was bow her head and apologize to Ren Yu.

It was clearly her own fault, yet her other self had done such terrible things.

—They had almost fought.

"..."

Ren Yu didn't reply for a long time, making Sie even more uneasy.

—Is he angry?

—He must have been scared by my monstrous form just now.

Sie felt a bit dejected.

After being lost in the Sea of Quantum for so long, she had finally found a kindred spirit whom she could talk to and who was willing to be her friend.

But now, she had scared him away.

As she thought about it, Sie felt sad, her chest feeling heavy, as if a large stone was pressing down on it.

Just as she was lost in thought, her head suddenly felt warm.

Sie looked up blankly, only to see Ren Yu reaching out a hand and stroking her hair.

"What, what are you doing..."

Sie was a little flustered.

Aside from Bronya and her mother, this was the first time someone had patted her head.

However, she found that she didn't dislike it, and her heart was even pounding.

—This feeling, it's so strange.

"It's nothing."

Ren Yu coughed lightly and smiled.

"You don't need to apologize. It's not your fault; it was just the mistake of your other self."

"If you really want to apologize, how about you chat with me more often in the future?"

Ren Yu revealed his intentions at the right time.

Sie's eyes flickered, and her expression was a little confused.

Is that okay?

Is this considered a punishment?

It felt as if Ren Yu, knowing how much she longed for interaction, had made a request specifically tailored to her.

Upon hearing this, her inner personality immediately issued a warning in her mind.

[Sie, don't believe him. I suspect he has ulterior motives. You won't end up well in his hands. What if he's a member of that 'Serpent'? Right!]

Sie pursed her thin lips and secretly glanced at Ren Yu, only to find that he was looking at her at that moment.

Their gazes met, and she hastily averted her eyes, nodding randomly.

"Okay, okay."

—Since he knows so much about me and agreed to take me to find Sister Bronya, he shouldn't... shouldn't be a bad person, right?

Seeing her agree, Ren Yu smiled even more brightly, his gaze towards Sie like he was looking at a treasure mountain.

—I already owe her so many favors, and we've formed quite a karmic connection. What's a little more debt? It shouldn't matter, right?

Since Sie could charge the emblem, it meant she had a connection with him. Ren Yu would never let her go easily.

Besides, if he let her go, given Sie's personality, she might suffer abuse from others.

Ren Yu was trying to convince his conscience.

Yes, this was protecting Sie.

It's not because of my selfish desires!

At worst...

At worst, I just won't let anyone else bully her anymore.

Looking at Ren Yu, who was smiling like a spring breeze, Sie's heart felt warm.

He's so handsome when he smiles.

Then, the girl also blushed and smiled, as if happy to have made a new friend.

Early morning, 6:30.

The alarm clock rang, and Ren Yu slowly opened his eyelids.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the gap in the ceiling.
