However, upon seeing Nie Qingyun, she suddenly dared not let him speak.
This feeling of unease came too suddenly, and Bai Yelinran suddenly felt a chill run through his body.
The mere thought of Nie Qingyun possibly saying something like "Let's break up" or "Let's end our relationship here" makes my heart ache terribly.
Without even giving Nie Qingyun time to speak, she immediately began to cry and apologize incessantly.
"I'm sorry! It's all my fault!"
"It was my carelessness..."
"I...I'll definitely be more careful from now on!"
"From now on, in front of her... I, I..."
"I will never stand by your side again!"
"so……"
"So, is this okay...?"
Chapter 212: You Are All My Wings! (Bonus Chapter!)
Nie Qingyun was taken aback by the series of apologies.
As he had predicted, matters of the heart were indeed full of unpredictable events.
Although he admitted that he had some talent in strategy-related matters.
However, he is not very good at handling relationships. Due to his personality, he simply cannot navigate relationships with multiple girls as easily and effortlessly as other men.
People were still leaving the preparation room one after another.
Yuwen Chaolu and the others mostly focused their attention on Nie Qingyun and Cheng Yuqiu.
No one noticed that Shirayuki Rinne's eyes were already red and brimming with tears.
However, Nie Qingyun noticed this unusual change and also roughly understood what Bai Ye Linyin was thinking.
After a few seconds of silence, Nie Qingyun suddenly responded in the drone channel.
"No."
"So it really doesn't work..."
Bai Yelin's heart trembled, and she became unsteady in an instant, but Nie Qingyun's words did not stop there.
"It's definitely your fault."
Upon hearing this, the girl's face turned pale, and she clenched her hands tightly and lowered her head.
However, the next second Nie Qingyun continued:
"You shouldn't be so humble when it comes to relationships."
"Regardless of who is right or wrong in our matter, I should be the one who takes responsibility."
“Young Miss… I will absolutely not give up on her…”
"But I won't abandon you and let you suffer all the injustices because of that."
"It's not fair..."
“I know I have no right to say such things.”
"But when it comes to relationships, I'm very greedy."
"What I want is your feelings, Rinne... not for you to stay by my side and compromise yourself."
"You also have the right to be capricious and act spoiled towards me."
"Or rather... I hope so."
"If I can make you feel happy from the bottom of your heart and laugh happily, I will be very happy too."
"I'm the one who should apologize."
"I was too greedy, and I failed to handle everything properly."
"Please don't say things like that again..."
"Waaah~ Brother Qingyun..." Bai Yelin's lips trembled, and tears began to roll down her cheeks.
"As expected... it's really... wonderful to have met you!"
The girl's heart immediately filled with joy.
The more painful those self-doubts and assumptions she had before were, the happier she was now.
Perhaps because it was the first time she had received such a serious and positive response from Nie Qingyun, Bai Yelin almost couldn't resist rushing over to hug him.
However, Nie Qingyun has not yet received a reply.
He was speaking from the heart.
He wanted both the girls to stay by his side and genuine affection, so whatever kind of chaotic situation he was in, he deserved it.
Nie Qingyun never considered escaping this point.
Even after almost everyone in the classroom had left, Nie Qingyun, still without a reply, finally couldn't help but ask:
"Rinne, you..."
"I do!" Before Nie Qingyun could finish speaking, Bai Yelin interrupted impatiently:
"I, I like Brother Qingyun the most!"
"So, no matter what it is, as long as Brother Qingyun asks, I'm willing!"
“Uh…” Nie Qingyun was suddenly speechless; things had changed a bit too quickly.
He had clearly sensed that Shirayuki Rinne was very sad just now, but suddenly she seemed like a completely different person.
Girls' thoughts... are indeed hard to grasp.
Although I'm not entirely sure what happened, it seems like everything is fine with Rinne now.
So Nie Qingyun couldn't help but shamelessly ask:
"Well, in that case... please get along well with the young lady later..."
"The young lady's personality... you've seen it, it's a bit awkward, but she's a very nice person."
"Yes, I know." Bai Yelin wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and answered quite readily.
Things progressed much more smoothly than Nie Qingyun had anticipated, to the point that it felt somewhat unreal to him.
But judging from the current situation, it's probably a good thing overall...
perhaps?
With the door to the preparation room closed, only Nie Qingyun and a group of girls remained in the classroom.
With Rinne's situation resolved, things will be much easier with the young lady's situation.
After all, everything was laid out yesterday, and there was no argument between the two sides, so there shouldn't be any major problems.
"your Highness?"
Sure enough, the call was connected as soon as the [communication notification] appeared.
Cheng Yuqiu subconsciously snorted, and then stopped talking.
Then came Nie Qingyun's unreserved praise and his blunt, unsophisticated love confessions.
However, Cheng Yuqiu was easily swayed by this approach, and before long, he was completely bewildered.
Actually, she hadn't originally planned to confront Bai Ye Lin Yin and the others.
She knew these girls had saved Nie Qingyun before, and even if she couldn't easily accept the relationship between Bai Yelin and Nie Qingyun, she didn't intend to make things too awkward.
But after the meeting ended this morning, the two groups met in the preparation room, and no one spoke. The atmosphere automatically became strange.
Because of the embarrassing scene in the bathroom yesterday, Bai Ye Lin Yin was too busy avoiding Cheng Yu Qiu to dare to take the initiative to talk to him.
Yuwen Chaolu and the others didn't know anyone else, so the few familiar women would definitely stay together.
Han Zheng and the people in Shi Chuanyu's group all knew that Cheng Yuqiu was Nie Qingyun's girlfriend, especially the boys, who were all deliberately avoiding getting too close to her.
Now that Cheng Yuqiu is Nie Qingyun's "official girlfriend," she can't just take the initiative to talk to him, can she? She definitely has to keep a distance.
This resulted in a three-way power struggle.
Fortunately, thanks to Nie Qingyun's continuous efforts, the situation has improved.
Nie Qingyun quickly waved to Bai Yelin, and only after the girl walked up somewhat awkwardly did he turn off the drone's communication channel, then grinned at Cheng Yuqiu and said:
"This is Rinne-chan..."
As he spoke, he introduced Yuwen Chaolu and the others one by one.
After Nie Qingyun finished his introduction, before Cheng Yuqiu could speak, Bai Yelinyin took the initiative to extend her small hand and said:
"Hello, Sister Yujue~"
"Brother Qingyun used to mention you every day."
"Sister Yuqiu is even prettier than she looks on screen!"
"Even if you praise me, you won't get any benefit from it..." Cheng Yuqiu said subconsciously, then realized that this was a bit too aggressive, since the other party had already taken the initiative to be friendly and even called her "sister," so she immediately changed her words:
"You're very beautiful too..."
"Well, I guess I'll forgive you for now... but don't get me wrong, I didn't admit to anything else."
Even as she said this, she still reached out her small hand and shook hands with Shiroya Rinne.
Seeing this, Nie Qingyun finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Oh my God!
too difficult!
I even wanted to reward myself by placing my hands on the girls' hands and loudly proclaiming, "You are all my wings."
However, doing so would be going too far, and it's very likely that I won't be able to sleep with the young lady for the next few weeks, so I'll just let it go.
Seeing that the girls had all introduced themselves to each other, Nie Qingyun quickly waved his hand and said:
"set off!"
At the same time, he sighed inwardly.
Finally, we can fast forward to the part where we team up to fight the monsters.
Chapter 213: The Strange Agreement We're Currently Making
Sparse footsteps echoed in the corridor; twenty-odd people moving around together was considered a relatively large group in the post-apocalyptic environment.
For safety reasons, all the paths leading to the first floor in the building have been blocked off, leaving only a winding passage.
Nie Qingyun walked at the very back, looking at the line ahead, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Managing a team well is really not easy.
It took quite a while just to learn about the members' personalities, personalities, and special skills.
Not to mention dealing with the vast array of livelihood issues like Qin Hehuan did...
Fortunately, the number of people is not large, and Nie Qingyun does not intend to become a true leader like Qin Hehuan.
He can provide some help to Shi Chuanyu and others when necessary, but he certainly won't take care of everything. So how far these people can go in the future depends on their individual abilities.
Of course, these people are far from being able to go out and explore with Nie Qingyun right now.
Although Shi Chuanyu and Han Zheng had used the [Essence of Chaos], this item was different from the [Blessing of Perfection]. It could only randomly increase a total of 5 attributes, while the latter could increase all basic attributes to 10.
Therefore, a better solution can be derived: use [Completion Blessing] to raise all attributes to 10, and then use [Essence of Chaos] to break through the 10 limit. This way, waste can be avoided to the greatest extent.
But this is only an ideal situation. In reality, very few people in the entire complex have ever used [Completion Blessing], including Shi Chuanyu and Han Zheng.
The reason is simple: most resources are controlled by the student council, with Qin Hehuan at its core. The gashapon machine in the main building, which is not yet fully under its control, is not something anyone can use at will. The items produced inside can only be redeemed by contributing to the student council.
In conclusion, to this day, among those who originally followed Shi Chuanyu, there are still two people who have not activated the [Data System], let alone their attributes.
Therefore, Nie Qingyun did not intend to lead this group of people around at the beginning, but instead let them stay in a safe area to improve their skills first.
At the very least, you need to have all the [Data System] activated and possess a few decent pieces of armor and weapons.
