At that moment, Hokuto's tone suddenly softened, "Wanda, I do like (like) you ......"

Wanda's face suddenly got a little hot.

Hokuto: "...... But that's because you are indeed cute. I know, it's not love (LOVE)."

The little witch's only hot face suddenly began to cool down, her lips trembled a bit, but she couldn't say anything.

Hokuto stretched out his hands and placed them on her shoulders: "I need you to seriously think about this - are you, really love to me? Or just like it too?"

Wanda was stunned, "Uh, this ......"

The words like and love are two words that are expressed differently in English.

Although most young people don't have to like it, the impulse to get together to solve each other's physical needs.

Therefore, a man and a woman who have reached the level of "liking" can have sex with each other and that's serious enough.

The word love is definitely more luxurious.

Most people say "I love you," but they know it's just an exaggeration or even a mouthful.

They only feel natural when they say "I love you" to their parents, wives and children.

In a sense, only if you love your girlfriend to the level of family, you won't feel guilty about saying "I love you" to her.

What does "I love you" mean at the level of family?

In Europe and the United States, there are seventy to eighty old parents raising a fat son who is a geek with no success.

Even from time to time reprimand scold, but still can not drive him away.

Men on the girlfriend can do so few.

Unless the woman is rich or very beautiful, that man's patience is "what you want".

The fat son of a geek has no money, and generally will not please his parents, who do not seek a return for their efforts.

At this moment, Wanda heard these two words from Beidou's mouth, and immediately understood what he meant.

People like Beidou will not say "I love you" casually.

Emmm~ Well, the majority of the Justice League is hiding from him.

You want him to say "I like you" to you? I'm sorry, but that must be the kind of "love" you'd cut into dozens of pieces and blast into a barbecue with an ion cannon.

With such a formal question, Wanda realizes something she hadn't noticed before: does she really "love" Hokuto?

To say that she was willing to take the bullet for Hokuto, but she had no problem and wouldn't ask for anything in return.

But this is a duty and responsibility between the Justice League buddies.

The Dark Knight and Black Catwoman will do the same for Wanda. Does this prove that they both "love" her?

What exactly do you "like", or "love" about Compass? Wanda asked herself so in her mind, suddenly realizing that the answer didn't seem to be as taken for granted as she thought.

She liked Hokuto's company, teaching, reprimanding, and the security that came with it, which were more like a ...... father to a?

Wanda immediately denied the theory again.

When she was with Hokuto, she would subconsciously get close to him and had fantasized about intimate scenes quite a few times.

She didn't hate such fantasies, nor did she reject the occasional intimate contact with him.

On the contrary, at this moment, she imagined herself calling him "father", and she felt uncomfortable.

Hokuto observed her expression, probably sure of what she was thinking, and smiled, "See, you're actually not sure which one it is, or which one is a little more, right?"

Wanda thought, nodding approvingly.

Hokuto clapped his hands on her shoulders a little harder, "Remember how I taught you to face problems? Give yourself a little more time, think it over, and then make a decision."

Wanda nodded and whirled around to frown, eyeing him suspiciously, "You ...... this is a delaying tactic?"

It was certainly something he taught about psychology as well.

Hokuto withdrew his hands, made a serious face and shook his head to say, "Not really. But do you know what the lifespan of a squad member is? At least a hundred and fifty years old."

Wanda was puzzled, "What does that have to do with us?"

Hokuto: "The problem is that according to the medical data, neither you nor I are the "least", but rather the smallest of the longest."

Wanda probably understood and asked tentatively, "So are we two hundred, or three hundred years old?"

Hokuto: "Five hundred years old to start."

"WHAT?" startled Wanda, opening her mouth wide for a moment before muttering.

"Three hundred should just be the time you stay young and look ageless." Hokuto spreads his hands, "The problem between us, if we have to make a decision at a stage where life is only beginning, it's probably similar to ...... the average girl screaming for marriage at the age of five?"

Wanda lowered her head and had a look at her pecs: ...... Are you saying that to imply that I'm like a little girl?

For a moment she had mixed feelings, not knowing whether to be happy or angry.

Hundreds of years of life, hundreds of years of immortal looks, this is definitely good news for women.

But if there was no one to accompany the long life and appreciate the immortal face, the situation would not be so wonderful.

Beidou saw the situation and smiled as he stepped forward to take her by the shoulders and strolled along the street, "See this road?"

Wanda nodded and hmmm'd.

Hokuto: "We've walked a short distance before, but we haven't seen the rest of it yet. If we leave right away, would you be curious what scenery is left on the rest of the way?"

Wanda looked around and skimmed, "Compared to the other streets we've been on, this one isn't really much to look at."

...... Well, that looks like a good student I taught. Hokuto slandered in his heart.

After a moment of silence, he then said, "Then from now on, we won't go to see the other streets either, are you willing?"

Wanda hesitated.

She'd just pissed him off with the snide remarks they were mutually accustomed to, but it was clear to both of them what the real meaning of the question was.

Once she said she would, she would get an answer, but it probably wouldn't be the one she wanted.

Moreover, his previous words had made her start to examine the feelings between the two.

After being thrown a few pots of cold water in a row, her mind calmed down to think again, and the answer that she thought was inevitable was actually not so sure.

And the real "love" of the feelings, is not to consider.

Seeing that she didn't reply for a long time, Hokuto naturally understood that this is the answer.

He nodded, "So, let's make a deal."

Wanda still didn't say anything and just looked at him.

"In a hundred years I'll do the same to you as before, I'll give you an answer then. Or ...... "Hokuto gazed at her, "Give me an answer anytime after you think about it."

Wanda looked complicated, her snow white teeth biting into her ardent red lips.

Only after a long time did she slowly nod her head, "Okay, I agree."

Hokuto smiled, reaching out his left hand to her face and hooking his pinky upwards, "Swear?"

The little witch looked down, staring at the finger for a moment, her left pinky quickly hooking with it.

The two hands shook together a few times before she couldn't help but stare up at him, "Is that what you swear by with everyone else?"

Hokuto's lips curled up, "Of course ...... no, but you're a little witch."

Wanda snorts and wrinkles her delicate nose: "I was an adult when I met you, okay."

Hokuto: "But I think you're still young."

Wanda: "Where am I young?"

Hokuto: "Well, let's talk about the long trip."

Wanda: "How long? A week, a month?"

Hokuto: "Well, how about five hundred years?"

Wanda: "...... Okay, you say."

On the sunny Parisian street, the two figures drifted apart, two fingers hooked together in small talk, but they didn't let go until they were hidden into the distant crowd.
