236: Two people who know each other well

Chapter 236: The Two Who Knew Each Other Inside Out

Finally, just one second before Mina's avatar turned red, Dick arrived at the last moment and kicked open the door to the room.

Looking at the aggressive Dick, the two girls and one flower in the room were stunned.

"Dick, you..."

"Go out first, let me talk to Mina alone," Dick directly interrupted Alice, then added, "Take Xiao Zi out too!"

When saying the last sentence, a chill flashed in Dick's eyes as he looked at Xiao Zi, scaring the little flower into an uncontrollable shiver.

Mina looked at Dick's serious expression, wanting to speak but hesitating, but in the end, she just waited quietly, waiting until only she and Dick were left in the room.

"Dick, good evening."

Mina greeted him softly, her tone as gentle as ever, showing no hint of yandere tendencies at all; her behavior was like that of a normal person.

But Dick did not relax his vigilance, because Mina's avatar had not yet turned green, still in the state of turning from gray to red.

Seeing this, Dick walked straight to Mina's side and sat down, immediately pulling her into his arms without a word, and then directly kissed her.

In this situation, physical action is more effective than verbal communication.

Mina's condition cannot be allowed to worsen. If he accidentally said something wrong later that caused her avatar to turn completely red, that would be awkward.

Words might be said incorrectly, but a kiss would definitely not be wrong; he had to first stabilize Mina.

As expected, the minute-long kiss made Mina's avatar turn from gray to green, and the unsettling red had disappeared.

However, the color of Mina's avatar was still dim, not a bright green, which indicated that she still had a knot in her heart that had not been completely resolved.

Releasing her, Mina was in a daze in Dick's arms; she was breathing in small gasps, her chest rising and falling.

"Di, Dick, why so sudden..."

"Is there any reason needed to kiss the woman I love?"

"Ah..."

Mina's avatar became greener. Her symptoms were actually very mild; after a combination of sweet words, she immediately felt much better.

Of course, more importantly, he discovered it in time. If Mina were allowed to overthink all night, her avatar would definitely be completely red when she woke up tomorrow morning!

Dick was not in a hurry to get to the topic. To completely cure the knot in Mina's heart, he needed to set the stage further.

With the experience of multiple lifetimes together, Dick knew everything about Mina. He was perfectly clear about every corner inside and outside her body.

"This sweater is finished?"

Dick took the folded sweater from Mina's lap and put it on right away.

Mina had just learned to knit sweaters. There were no complicated or fancy patterns on it, just pure dark brown, and the style looked a bit rustic.

Not only that, but the sweater was also one size too large, not the most suitable size for Dick.

"Ho, how is it? Is it comfortable to wear?"

"Mm, it's very comfortable, I like it very much," Dick turned around, showing it to Mina, and smiled, "I'll wear it all the time."

Although the two of them were not short of money at all now, Mina still retained the habits of a poor person.

For clothes, they would usually get one size larger so that they could continue to wear them as they grew, increasing the lifespan of the clothes.

Besides this reason, Dick himself also liked loose clothes; tight-fitting ones made him uncomfortable all over, feeling as if he were restrained.

This was something only Mina knew. She and Dick had depended on each other since they were young, so she naturally knew many small details.

"Mm, I'm glad you like it. The Eternal Frost Forest has a cold climate, so you need to pay attention to staying warm afterward and don't catch a cold..."

Mina gently helped Dick adjust the sweater, her face radiant, as if she were the one wearing new clothes.

Dick turned and grasped Mina's slightly rough hand, saying affectionately, "You gave me such a wonderful sweater, how should I thank you?"

"No, no need, Dick, I didn't do it for a reward..."

Dick shook his head and chuckled. Although Mina refused verbally, the anticipation in her heart was already evident.

She just wanted to be praised, to be thanked, and even more, she hoped to receive... a reward!

Dick was very understanding; he directly picked up Mina's light body and walked slowly to the large bed.

"Dick..."

Looking at the extremely shy Mina in his arms, Dick chuckled, "You always like to keep things bottled up; if you don't say it, who knows what you want?"

"I didn't..."

"Alright," Dick stopped teasing Mina and said directly, "It's what I want, is that okay?"

"Whatever... as long as you like it."

...

Several hours later, in the dead of night, Mina nestled in Dick's arms, her face flushed, her eyes filled with happiness.

Dick noticed that Mina's avatar had now turned completely green, and at this moment, it was even emitting green light with a "kuku" sound.

But Dick did not relax his vigilance, because this was only temporary. Mina's real problem had not been solved yet, and she could relapse at any time.

Perhaps even without Xiao Zi babbling there, on some lonely night when Mina couldn't sleep and was overthinking, she would fall into depression by herself.

"Mina, we are people who know each other inside out. If you have anything you can't figure out, you must tell me."

Dick emphasized the phrase "know each other inside out," making it sound somewhat thought-provoking.

Mina was no longer some pure maiden; she quickly thought of something, lowered her head, and her face flushed.

Dick was not in a hurry. The groundwork had been laid; now he just had to wait for Mina to say it herself. Only then could it be completely cured.

Mina's personality of liking to endure in silence was the real big problem!

Dick had always been far-sighted. Solving Mina's problem this time was simple, but it was far from enough.

What needed to be truly solved was Mina's personality problem; this was the biggest cause of her yandere tendencies.

Not long after, Mina recovered and whispered, "Why... didn't you form a Soul Contract with me?"

"Alice, Xiao Nai, and Cecilia, they all have one... What, what does this mean?"

Mina knew that Dick loved her, and knew that she shouldn't throw a tantrum. She was worried that Dick would be displeased because of this...

Therefore, Mina looked uneasy. She didn't mean to question him, but just humbly wanted to know the answer to the question.

In the battlefield of love, the person who loves the other deeply is often extremely passive.

"If, if it's not convenient to answer, you don't have to tell me. You must have your arrangements..."

Mina looked up at Dick, pursed her lips, and said, "I was just asking casually, it just came to mind. I don't necessarily need to know the answer..."

"Because I trust you, I trust you more than anyone else, so you don't need the constraint of a Soul Contract at all!"

Dick looked at Mina, his eyes sincere, and said with a genuine tone, "Mina, you are more special than anyone else. I can unconditionally entrust my back to you!"

Of course, the main reason was the System's judgment. Even without a Soul Contract, Mina was judged to be in a state of "being controlled by him."

In a sense, Mina was indeed very special; the only person she cared about in her heart was him, which saved a Soul Contract slot.

Listening to Dick's words, Mina suddenly understood, and the knot in her heart completely disappeared.

So that's it, it was because Dick trusted her the most!

Forming Soul Contracts with the other three girls was because of insufficient trust, which was why they had to rely on Soul Contracts!

Being trusted, and by the person one loves, is a great feeling of satisfaction.

Mina felt a little dizzy for a moment and collapsed softly into Dick's arms.

"Mm, Dick, I don't need a Soul Contract, never will. I will always be behind you, protecting and supporting you, I swear..."

Listening to Mina's incredibly emotional confession, Dick appeared moved, but in reality, his heart was calm like still water.

Alas, Mina.

You said the same thing in my seventh lifetime.
