"………Why?"

Although Asuna made various psychological preparations when she asked the question, Yingriri's answer still surprised her. Novel.

“Didn’t you… date?”

"It depends on which type you are talking about. If you are talking about normal interactions in the world, such as confession, date, date, etc.... Well, I think the relationship with us is still different. Do you think when I went out for a date with Mr. Fang Zheng? I didn't show any particular affection with Mr. Fang Zheng in front of others, right?"

"This is...that's right."

Hearing Yingliri's answer, Asuna nodded subconsciously. Indeed, Yingliri never showed any strangeness in front of everyone, so Asuna did not think that she would date Fang Zheng. Therefore, when she saw the intimate scene between Yingliri and Fang Zheng, Asuna was so surprised.

Looking at Asuna's confused expression, Yingliri smiled.

"In fact, I did confess to Mr. Fang Zheng. At that time, Mr. Fang Zheng's answer was that he could accept my confession, but at the same time he also told me that he had several girlfriends. If I was willing to confess to him after I knew about this, then he would accept it."

"Why?!"

Hearing this, Asuna screamed.

"Does Mr. Fang Zheng have several girlfriends?"

"At least that's what he said, and I don't seem to be kidding."

"But, but...I can't see that Mr. Fang Zheng is like this...so..."

Asuna's eyes were circling, her face was confused. She blinked and was stunned for a long time before she spoke.

"Are you a... fickle person?"

As Asuna said, Fang Zheng has always been very gentlemanly in front of everyone, and has not said that he pays special attention to a certain girl or takes advantage of them by taking advantage of them. So Asuna never thought that Fang Zheng would be a fickle man. But if according to Yingliri, then Fang Zheng would be just fickle.

However, this time, Yingliri didn't speak immediately. She quietly stared at Asuna in front of her, and then asked softly after a while.

"Asuna, if it were you, do you like a fickle person? Or a dedicated person?"

"Of course he is a dedicated person."

This time, Asuna gave the answer without any hesitation, while Eriri chuckled.

"You haven't been in a relationship yet."

“Woo……”

"Where I think so before."

Yinglili looked up and looked at the blue sky outside the window.

"I used to have a childhood sweetheart. I like him very much, and I hope he can like me. I only have me in my eyes, I will always be with me, and then I will confess to him, and then we will date, get married, and live a happy life..."

Listening to Yingliri's words, Asuna didn't say much. In her opinion, this was normal. After all, Yingliri's idea was also Asuna's idea, or most girls in the world thought so.

“………But, I’m not the only girl around him.”

Speaking of this, Yingliri's eyes became dimmed.

"The person in the fate he met was not me. No matter how hard I tried, he just regarded me as an ordinary childhood sweetheart. Of course, we are still friends, and we are very good friends. But that's all. He won't regard me as his most important person, let alone me as his only one."

Yingliri shook her head and clenched her fists.

"The only favorite love, a dedicated love for someone, is the treatment that the heroine will receive. Have you seen the harem animation? Asuna, there are always several beautiful girls around the hero, and each beautiful girl secretly agrees with the hero, but in the end? The hero only chooses the heroine, so... what about those supporting roles? What should they do? What can they do?"

“…………………”

Asuna didn't say anything. To be honest, she didn't know what to say now.

"I am just a supporting role, not a protagonist. I can't win the favor of the male lead and become his only one like the heroine. No matter how hard I try, I can't win if I can't win. Even if the opponent is a heroine who has no presence like a passerby, as long as she is the heroine, then I can't win no matter what."

“…………………”

Asuna was speechless when facing Eriri's words. Asuna said, she had never been in love and did not have a deep understanding of this. However, even so, she could still hear the heart-wrenching anger and sadness from Eriri's tone.

"I don't hate that child. On the contrary, the heroine and I are also good friends. But I still don't like this, why is this so? I have a best friend and the best childhood sweetheart. Why does it bring such pain when I add up with two happinesses? If that guy is not so dedicated, if he is a little fickle, then do I have a chance too?"

As he spoke, Yingrili leaned against the chair, closed her eyes, took a deep breath, then opened her eyes, looked at Asuna again, showing a smile.

"So, I was very happy when Mr. Fang Zheng told me that he had another girlfriend, but he could accept my confession."

"………Why?"

Perhaps because the difference between the turning point was too big, Asuna widened her eyes for a moment and could not react to the connection.

"I didn't lose. Although I couldn't be considered a win, I didn't lose either. Look, there are also champions, runner-ups and third-place finishes in the competition. Although people often say that compared to champions, runner-ups and third-place finishes are meaningless. However, with other contestants who have tried their best but have nothing, they have at least won the runner-ups and third-place finishes, right? Their efforts are not completely unreal. At least, they have also achieved the results of their efforts, not nothing. Even if I am just runner-ups and third-place finishes, they are better than those contestants who have nothing, right?"

"But, but this is...isn't it right?"

If Eriri's book had smashed Asuna's romantic fantasy about love before, then now Eriri's words are completely exaggerating Asuna's view of love.

Although I know what she said is wrong, why does it make sense?!

“Indeed, from a worldly moral point of view, it is wrong to do this.”

However, Yingli Li was very free and easy now.

"But what does this matter?"

“What does it matter…?”

"That's right, Asuna, look, why is this not allowed in the world? Although mistresses and lovers are often on the news and celebrities cheat on them, why are they boycotted by the world?"

"Um……………"

This time, facing Yingliri's questioning, Asuna frowned and began to think hard.

"In this way, if you give birth to a child, wouldn't it be pitiful without a father? Moreover, if you don't get married, there is no legal guarantee for your property... Moreover, if you do this, you will be sad if your parents find out."

"yes."

Yingli Li nodded happily.

"But what does this have to do with us? We are in the game now, not in reality."

"………Why?"

Faced with this answer, Asuna was completely stunned. At this time, Yingri stood up and spread her hands and turned around.

"Did you forget? Asuna, we are trapped in this game. Here, our bodies are just data. No matter how many times Mr. Founder and I did it, we wouldn't have children, and in reality my body wouldn't get pregnant, let alone, this is a game of death. Although Mr. Founder has been trying hard to protect us, no one knows when an accident will happen."

Speaking of this, Yingliri's voice became a little low.

"As the floor of our guide gets higher and higher, the boss is becoming more and more dangerous. Maybe when one of us will die by accident. I don't want to have even tasted the taste of love before death. At least now, I can taste the taste of happiness in the arms of the man I like. Even if it's just in the game, even if it's just a moment of dreams, it's better than working hard without any reward."

“……………………………”

This time, Asuna did not answer. After all, what Yingliri was talking about was a very realistic question. That's right, compared to cheating, mistresses, lovers, etc., the most important thing for them right now is to guide this death game.

However, even though Fang was assured that they would take everyone out safely, the girls knew very well in their hearts that maybe they didn't know when, or maybe just because of a guide, one of them might die.

In fact, didn’t the black cat almost die before?

If it weren't for Fang Zheng's protection, they would have lost a companion now.

In the face of life and death, the moral norms of the world do seem to be less important.

However, just as Asuna was pondering, she saw Eriri coming over and staring at her seriously.

"Okay, it's your turn next?"

"………I?"

"That's right."

Yingliri nodded.

"I have said so many shy words to you. These are all my secrets. In exchange, shouldn't you tell me your secret?"

"What, what secret?"

Hearing this, Asuna seemed a little panicked and shook her head quickly.

"I have no secret?"

"Do you think I don't know? Mr. Fang Zheng has told me. To be honest, Asuna, I have seen people who are addicted to notebooks, but it is very rare and abnormal to be as serious as you. Even if you read the notebook, you will not sink to this point."

While speaking, Yingriri stared at Asuna.

“………Are you running away from something?”—
