Stepping back from jESSICA, Mr. Guan observed her from a far corner. Gradually, he noticed some details that he had not noticed before.
JESSICA always liked to stick close to Li Er. Sometimes they would hold hands, sometimes they would hold hands. When Li Er sat with her back facing her, jESSICA would gently caress the back of the chair and stare at Li Er's long black hair without blinking. When Mr. Guan invited them for afternoon tea, when he was cleaning up the tableware, he found a paper cup that Li Er had used was missing. It had a lip print on it. Of course, the paper cup was not in the trash can.
On the other hand, Li Er's arrogance toward jESSICA was infuriating. Why did she always feel that she was better than others? Mr. Guan could tell at a glance that she secretly hated and envied her roommate. However, she still wanted to maintain a superficial friendship. This woman was really hypocritical.
Anyway, it seemed that he could not be with jESSICA anymore. It was not the goal of the game. Even if they could not be together, he would not lose anything. He just felt a little sorry for "Mr. Guan", who was deeply in love with jESSICA.
He had a crush on jESSICA, so the goal of the game was related to her. jESSICA was madly in love with jESSICA, so her goal must be related to jESSICA. Although he did not know the specific details, at least he knew where he should go.
Mr. Guan was thinking about the tactics he should adopt in the following conversation as he put the freshly baked cake into the box. When he went out with the box, he prayed that he would not meet Y'lisabet, just like everyone else in this building who had to carry food outdoors.
Since he lived on the second floor with Y'lisabet, he had to be extra careful. He closed the door and went downstairs softly. Perhaps his movements were too soft. When he was about to go downstairs, the two people hiding in the shadows at the bottom of the stairs did not notice that someone was coming. They were still whispering to each other.
Mr. Guan paused awkwardly. He did not care about the other neighbors in the building. As long as he could help jESSICA and achieve his goal, he did not care if the other characters would fight against each other. He sighed silently in his heart. He knew that he had to wait for the two people at the bottom of the stairs to finish their conversation.
"This amount is only enough for you to use twice," a woman whispered. "You don't have any more."
The other woman's voice grunted heavily.
Mr. Guan usually didn't care about the consequences of his neighbors, but at this moment, he didn't even know who was talking.
"No matter what your goal is, you have to complete it within two times …" The first woman continued, "Then we'll be even. You haven't told anyone about me, have you? "
"No." The second woman only replied with two words. Before Mr. Guan could identify whose voice it was, she did not speak again. He seemed to have caught the tail end of the conversation, for he heard the first woman say, "So be it," and backed away from the landing and turned into the house. If the other two looked up or went upstairs, they would realize that he had overheard them; and he did not want any more complications than Jessica's business.
He waited at home for a while. When he felt that everything was fine outside, Mr. Guan went out again. When he knocked on the door, he was still thinking about who the two women were, and what the "twice the amount" was. However, the moment Jessica opened the door, he instantly forgot what he had heard.
"I have something to talk to you about," Mr. Guan quickly bent down and passed the box of pastries to her, as if he was offering a gift. He asked, "Just the two of us, is it convenient for you?"
Lee Er, who was watching television in the living room, suddenly let out a gloating laugh.
Jessica turned around and looked at her. She seemed a little shy and embarrassed. She hugged the box and didn't know what to say. As a woman, she must have sensed Mr. Guan's feelings a long time ago. She just chose not to respond. She must have misunderstood and thought that Mr. Guan was ready to reveal the truth.
"Yes … It has something to do with her." Mr. Guan quickly moved closer and whispered in Jessica's ear. He then glanced at Lee Er's back. He didn't realize that there were a few hairs in Jessica's ears and eyes.
As expected, jESSICA's eyes immediately widened and she replied, "Okay."
"Then let's talk in my room," she suggested. She was a very gentle person. Before she left, she didn't forget to ask Lee Er, "Mr. Guan, you brought some pastries. I'll get you a plate to eat while you watch television, okay?"
Lee Er didn't turn around. She just waved her hand as if she was afraid that the suggestion would affect her. She said, "No, no."
What an annoying girl!
Mr. Guan followed Jessica into her room. He was still a little indignant. Jessica closed the door and sat down on the bed. She gestured for him to sit on a chair and asked, "What's wrong with Lee Er?"
With such deep feelings, he really didn't know if he could get the desired result. Mr. Guan shook his head and was ready to attack directly. Of course, he had to be careful not to talk about the game's goal directly.
"It's not her, it's you," Mr. Guan said in a low voice. "You love her, don't you?"
Jessica's expression looked like she was being pricked by a needle. She immediately became alert. She straightened her back and said, "Why … Don't talk nonsense."
"Don't worry. As long as you don't want to, I won't tell anyone." Mr. Guan was afraid that she would misunderstand him. He was so anxious that he almost moved out of the chair. "My feelings for you, I think you more or less understand it … For you, I can do anything, as long as you are truly happy."
If he didn't have the character manual, he wouldn't be able to say this kind of line in a third-rate romantic drama.
Jessica looked at him and slowly blinked her eyes. She dragged her voice, "… Oh?"
She must have come back to her senses.
Due to the rules of the game, he could only wrap his game goal in a confession. As long as she wasn't an idiot, she should be able to realize it.
"I understand. I'm very touched. Thank you." Jessica was still so gentle. She sighed and said, "But, I'm afraid you can't help me. Lee Er is not … She has no interest in women. Naturally, she has no interest in me. Of course, I want to confess to her and pursue her, but I'm more afraid of losing her. Compared to losing her, it's better to stay like this. "
Understood.
Mr. Guan sat back on the chair and straightened his back. He realized that he was involuntarily smiling on his face. Jessica glanced at him and also smiled slightly, "… You don't discriminate against me, and you are willing to help me. I will always cherish your kindness."
When Mr. Guan left, he gently patted Jessica's shoulder and glanced at Lee Er who was still in the living room.
"… Leave everything to me."
