"That's why… I…" Yue said while glancing at Hikaru, and paying attention to his emotions. She was afraid that he would be jealous.
However, when she saw that Hikaru was calm, she pouted, and felt a bit angry.
It is extremely difficult to understand most women.
If Hikaru showed any signs of anger or jealousy when she said that she received supplies from Rayze, she would feel happy.
But since Hikaru calmly reacted to the news, she felt a little angry in her heart.
Yue pursed her lips, then said: "I feel like he treated me quite well, that's why I opened the door to let him into the room, and then... I received a lot of supplies from him."
Yue finished speaking, then slightly raised her head to look at Hikaru's expression.
At this moment, a hint of anger could be seen in his eyes; however, his expression was still calm.
Seeing Hikaru's expression, Yue felt happy: 'Huh! You are indeed a Tsundere. On the outside, you try to appear calm but you are jealous, right?'
'Hm… but… am I not joking too much?'
Yue thought again, then she corrected her words: "Sorry… I… I said something wrong. I never allowed him into my house, he only stopped outside the door."
Hikaru looked unconcerned, he swallowed the piece of meat in his mouth, then calmly said: "You don't have to apologize to me, that's your private matter, I have no right to interfere."
"After all, your family and his family have been together for a long time so you must be very close to him."
Hearing that, Yue pouted and said: "I... I'm not close to him at all. Don't get it confused, he always sticks to me like glue, I don't care about him."
"Ah! I know." Hikaru only responded superficially, then focused on eating.
Yue also ate, but she felt that the food in front of her was no longer as delicious as before.
She picked up the bottle of mineral water, opened the cap, drank it, then folded her arms and sat still on the chair.
"Heh?! You aren't eating anymore? If you don't eat quickly, the food will get cold. With the current temperature, it will freeze quickly."
"Huh! I am not eating." Yue snorted, her voice a little angry.
Hikaru tilted his head to look at Yue, then he stopped paying attention to her and focused on eating.
"You…" Yue was so angry that it seemed that smoke was coming from her head. She didn't understand why Hikaru was acting like that, nor did she know why she was angry.
Yue sat still, after a while her stomach growled. She had no choice but to continue eating. After all, it was the end of the world, food and water were extremely scarce, and she didn't want to waste them.
The two of them ate in silence, Yue ate in anger, it seemed like she was venting her anger on the food because she chewed aggressively.
Hikaru glanced at Yue, he suddenly smiled and said: "Are you sulking at me?"
"Huh! Why should I sulk at you? You and I are not close at all." Yue pouted and said.
"You're right, both of us are not close to each other…"
As Yue listened to Hikaru, she suddenly felt extremely disappointed, it was as if the only bit of warmth in the cold world was gradually slipping away from her reach.
"That's why… I want you and I to get closer." Hikaru said as he placed a silver bracelet on the table.
Yue was surprised when she saw the bracelet. The bracelet was silver in color and was sculpted extremely delicately.
"This is…" Yue asked in confusion.
"It's a gift, I am giving it to you."
"Heh?!" Yue looked at Hikaru, then looked at the bracelet on the table. Even though she didn't know what material it was made of, Yue nevertheless felt extremely happy: "But… Why did you give me a gift?"
"Like I said." Hikaru shrugged: "I want to get to know you. Besides… men give gifts to women, apart from that giving a gift to a beauty like you is normal, and there is no reason needed."
"Ah! If there is a reason… it will be because I was captivated by your beauty, so I decided to give you a gift."
"Don't you like it?" Hikaru said as he stretched out his hand as if he wanted to take the bracelet back.
Suddenly, Yue immediately held the bracelet in her hand, she pouted and said: "Who said I don't like it? Of course I like it."
Yue really liked the gift, holding it in her hand made her feel extremely secure, as if there was an aura protecting her.
No, apart from that Yue felt that as soon as she held the bracelet, her body became very warm. It seemed that the space around her body and outside were completely different.
Yue even felt that her body was a bit light and comfortable. The little bit of discomfort she felt from not showering for many days also disappeared.
"This is…"
Hikaru smiled and said: "What I give you is not an ordinary bracelet. It is made from the wood of an evolved tree, and of course, to cut the tree I had to fight with it."
Hikaru said it as if it were a completely normal thing. However, when Yue looked towards Hikaru, she realized she had been too indifferent and neglectful.
Because Hikaru was wearing a jacket and there was too little light in this place, Yue didn't notice the blood stains on the t-shirt behind his jacket.
There was a lot of blood, but it was partially covered by the jacket so it couldn't be seen clearly.
Yue suddenly felt extremely embarrassed.
'He risked his life to fight monsters just to make a gift for me....'
'But I don't understand, I'm sulking at him. Ah… why am I so stupid?'
'There's so much blood... he must be in a lot of pain.'
Yue's eyes were a little wet. Yue was a pianist, and she was also a romantic, so Hikaru's actions made Yue feel extremely emotional.
He was like a prince as he overcame countless difficulties and destroyed monsters just to bring a gift back to the princess.
This made Yue's heart beat faster, and her face became redder.
She pursed her lips, although she liked this bracelet very much, she also felt that this bracelet was very special.
However... The bracelet was too precious, Hikaru had to sacrifice a lot of blood to get this thing, so she didn't dare to accept it.
"I…"
"Don't refuse it." Hikaru knew what Yue was going to say, so he immediately interrupted her words: "You deserve to wear it in your hands."
Hearing that, Yue felt extremely sweet in her heart. Suddenly, she took a deep breath and said: "I… I don't know how to wear it, can you help me?"
Hikaru smiled and replied: "Of course."
He stood up, walked behind Yue, wrapped his arms around her as if hugging her from behind.
Yue didn't protest or refuse, she sat still while Hikaru put the bracelet on her wrist.
He gently placed the bracelet on Yue's right wrist. The bracelet seemed to be made especially for her, it fit her very well, it was not too tight nor too loose.
Yue immediately felt that her body felt more comfortable and warmer than when she held it in her hand.
Yue felt so comfortable that she wanted to sleep in the kitchen.
"Do you like it?"
Hikaru's voice rang out, bringing Yue back to her senses.
At this moment, Hikaru was still standing behind her, his hands holding her shoulders.
His words carried a warm breath and a masculine scent that made Yue's heart beat stronger.
Yue turned her head slightly, her face was now less than 10 cm away from his.
She nodded and said: "I… I like it very much."
Both of their eyes met and due to the dim candlelight Yue relaxed the vigilance in her mind even more.
Combined with the effectiveness of the bracelet, Yue had completely lowered her mental defenses.
Yue suddenly closed her eyes, raised her head, and slightly moved her soft lips forward.
Hikaru was also not an amateur. He bowed his head and kissed Yue's soft lips.
This was Yue's first kiss, when she felt Hikaru's warm lips, she was startled but she did not protest.
As both of their lips touched each other, Yue felt even sweeter in her heart.
Hikaru of course did not relent, he immediately 'attacked' and enjoyed Yue's lips like a sweet candy.
Yue had no experience in this matter, so she could only sit still and let him continuously 'attack' her.
More than 5 minutes later, the two of them separated, Yue gasped and looked at Hikaru. Her cheeks were as red as a ripe apple, and this made her look more charming and beautiful.
Yue looked at Hikaru, her hand gently caressing his face: "Do... Do you like me?"
Hikaru smiled and said: "Of course. You are a very beautiful person, why won't I like you?"
"Huh!" Yue suddenly pouted: "So you only like my beauty?"
"Hahaha…" Hikaru laughed loudly: "Of course I also like many other things about you. However, do you really like me?"
Yue was startled when she heard that. She really wanted to say that she liked him too, however, she couldn't determine whether she really liked him or not.
'Maybe... It was the heat of the moment. After today is over, will I regret it?'
Would she pretend it was all just a dream?
Yue didn't know, she shook her head and said: "Sorry... I... I can't answer you right now."
"It's okay… I don't need you to answer right now. After all, this is only the second time we've met, I know everything is happening fast,and that you need time to adapt."
Yue felt happy hearing that. She felt that Hikaru was very gentle as he didn't force her to do anything.
Suddenly, Yue immediately compared Hikaru to Rayze in her mind, which made her upset.
Rayze always wanted to control her, and keep her in this place. He even killed many people, and his hands were stained with fresh blood.
To Yue, Rayze was no different from a pervert, or a serial killer.
As for Hikaru, he was like a prince, as he brought the last bit of warmth and light of this world to her side.
"HM… I hope I can listen to you play the piano today."
