The purple-haired, straight-haired girl had her cheeks puffed out at the moment, her angry look undeniable.
But beneath this indignant expression.
The girl's eyes held a hint of complex emotion.
Fern's shoulders could still feel a slight soreness at this moment.
Her heart was still filled with fear even now.
And this fear was the source of Fern's indignation.
"Fern?"
Yulian leaned closer to Fern and called out softly.
"Hmmph…"
Fern was like a cat whose fur had stood on end, only letting out a low sound of dissatisfaction.
"Stark was wrong."
Alright, okay.
Seeing that Fern had no intention of speaking first.
Yulian got up again and sat beside Stark, who was adding firewood.
"Stark, what happened between you and Fern?"
Yulian looked at Fern behind him, then spoke to Stark beside him, asking.
"I…"
Stark took a breath, intending to speak.
But thinking of Fern, who was sulking and ignoring him at the moment, Stark's words stopped at his mouth and he fell silent again.
Don't stop talking!
Yulian suspected that he had been trolled by Stark.
But he had no evidence.
Weren't you clearly about to speak?
What, were you suddenly muted?
"Stark..."
Yulian suppressed the helplessness in his heart, his eyes slightly serious.
"You don't want to stay angry with Fern forever, do you?"
"Uh-huh—"
This time, before Stark could speak, Fern on the bed side had already snorted first upon hearing the sound.
There's a chance!
Yulian looked at Stark with light in his eyes.
Please don't say the wrong thing!
"Of course I don't want to…"
Good!
Comrade Stark expressed his determination to reconcile with Comrade Fern without the slightest hesitation!
It's just that his tone was slightly lacking in firmness and vitality!
His attitude might need adjustment!
However, considering that it was Stark who spoke first and took the first step towards peace!
All of this is still understandable!
What about the rest?
Light appeared in Yulian's eyes, anticipating Stark's next words.
However, the next second Yulian saw Stark lower his head again and silently add firewood to the fireplace.
Huh?
Yulian blinked a few times.
Is that it?
The situation is a bit bad!
"So what happened?"
Yulian had no choice but to keep asking.
"I..."
Stark looked at Fern.
Seeing that Fern had no other reaction except turning her back to him, he continued.
"Yesterday, didn't Fern freeze my face with her hand?"
"Hmm?"
"Then when I went out and came back today, my hand was also very cold, and then…"
And then naturally Stark returned the favor…
Stark didn't say the rest, but Mr. Yulian could guess what happened.
But, if it was just like this.
Fern shouldn't be angry.
So troublesome!
Yulian's eyes were vacant.
He somewhat missed the time in the tavern when he and Sein would groan after drinking some cheap wine.
It was truly foolish.
It was truly happy too.
"Mr. Yulian, help me…"
Stark said with a pouting, wronged look.
"No matter what I say, Fern ignores me…"
"Okay, I understand."
Yulian gently patted Stark's shoulder.
In an instant, he was by Fern's side again.
Hmm, her expression looked better than before.
Yulian quietly observed Fern's expression.
He let out a sigh of relief.
He complained in his heart about how Mother Fern was as petty as a child.
But then he thought that Mother Fern was actually just a child too.
It was just that she was usually too sensible, which made people unconsciously overlook Fern's occasionally sensitive inner feelings.
"Fern..."
Yulian spoke softly.
"You heard it just now."
"Stark is very sorry for using his hand..."
Uh…
How should I start?
Used his hand to touch your cheek?
Help…
Yulian had a headache.
"Mr. Yulian..."
Fern pursed her lips.
Hesitating to speak.
"Uh-huh, I'm listening."
Yulian didn't know what Fern wanted to say.
But wanting to speak was ultimately a good thing.
However, Yulian listened attentively but didn't hear Fern's next words.
I don't actually mind Stark touching my face?
How should I say it!
Fern's heart was not as calm as it appeared on the surface.
She was even a bit frantic.
"Hey—"
Frieren had been hiding and watching the drama for so long.
She finally came forward, nudged Yulian with her elbow, and then pulled Yulian aside.
"What?"
Yulian looked at Frieren, who had pulled him over, and frowned slightly.
There was finally progress!
We should pursue the victory!
"Could it be that there are some things that, because we are here..."
"Fern is embarrassed to say?"
Frieren covered her mouth.
She said softly next to Yulian's ear.
Embarrassed to say?
Yulian rubbed his chin!
Isn't that right!
Girls are naturally more thin-skinned!
In this situation, they should explain clearly to themselves separately!
Yulian looked at Stark with some sympathy.
This child was truly wronged.
While enduring Fern's anger, he also admitted his mistake in front of Fern but was not forgiven.
In that case.
Yulian thought for a moment and then leaned into Frieren's ear and said something.
Frieren turned around and walked towards the outside of the house.
Yulian, on the other hand, came to Fern's side, said a few words, and then pulled Fern towards the outside of the house and followed.
"Rumble—"
A familiar sound rang in Stark's ears.
The previous second, Stark was still curious about what the others were going out to do, and the next second he saw Frieren, covered in goose down snow, shivering and coming to the fire.
"So cold."
Frieren roasted herself by the fire and rubbed her hands.
"Mistress Frieren..."
"Where did Mr. Yulian and Fern go?"
Stark asked the doubt in his heart.
"Them~"
Frieren pursed her lips.
Her words stopped abruptly halfway through.
"Hmm?"
"Mistress Frieren?"
Stark couldn't help but ask.
"I won't tell you, who told you to ignore me before."
Frieren raised her head haughtily.
She roasted herself by the fire, ignoring the downcast Stark.
In another wooden house.
Yulian took out a gas lamp from his spatial ring and lit it.
He sat face to face with Fern at the table.
"Fern, it's just the two of us now."
"So say whatever you want to say."
Yulian said with a smile.
The next second, he exaggeratedly waved his fists.
"If Stark really made some unforgivable mistake, I will definitely not let him off easily!"
Of course, this was just Yulian's excuse.
After all, if he was a bit fierce towards Stark, Fern might loosen up a bit here.
"I…"
"Actually, I'm not angry with Mister Stark…"
Fern lowered her eyebrows.
"It's just because Mister Stark suddenly appeared behind me..."
"Putting his hand on my shoulder made me very scared."
Fern touched her still sore shoulder, looking melancholic.
Understood!
Yulian understood everything!
So I'm also part of your play!
