Chapter 198 Three Things!
[Part 8/12 of today's Mass release! Here you go fellas! Big Shout out to Dirtydew!]
Hugo smirked and leaned in slightly, his voice dropping into that low, confident tone he knew made Lily's heart race. Explore hidden tales at My Virtual Library Empire
He had had a lot of practice on how to do the sleeper voice and he had made good progress.
"I missed you even more," he whispered back.
Lily's eyes softened, and a smile stretched across her lips. Then, without warning, she squeezed him tighter, pressing her body even closer against his.
It was as if she wanted to melt completely into his arms. Her soft but firm body fitted every inch of his body comfortably.
"Thank you," she murmured, her voice full of emotion. "Thank you for being so understanding... for always supporting me and encouraging me to chase my dreams. It means so much to me, Hugo. More than you'll ever know."
Hugo's heart did a little skip, but his brain?
His brain was having a mental breakdown. Her words were absolutely inaccurate. In fact, they were unbelievable!
Did this girl think if he didn't mind her never having time for him?
'Understanding? Me? Ah Lily! You might not know this, but I have multiple girls, and I'm currently dodging a war between them!
I'm the furthest thing from an understanding boyfriend! I just don't get in your way because I have other options!
Besides, I'm not that kind of guy. I'm very peaceful and calm... hehe'
But did he say that out loud? Of course not.
Instead, he put on his most heartfelt expression, gently rubbed her back, and said, "Of course, Lily. I'll always be here for you. Your dreams are my dreams."
Even for him, it sounded absolutely cheeky. His face grew pink from the cringe. He almost gasped at the overload of cringe. But at least it had the desired effect on Lily.
After hearing his words, she melted on the spot, sighing against his chest before hugging him even tighter, if that was possible.
Hugo grinned. 'Perfect execution.'
He was getting better at this. Sanchez's advice had already been ingrained into his psyche.
He was beginning to know the perfect words to say. His understanding of women was also improving by the day. At least, of the normal ones.
Among all his girls, Lily was the one who loved emotional support and deep conversations the most.
She wanted someone who could talk about feelings, ambitions, and the deeper meaning of life. She wanted a person who she could have intimate, personal and vulnerable conversations with.
And Hugo?
Hugo hated deep conversations. He didn't even like to have deep thoughts. How would he want to have deep conversations!
But for her? He could pretend for a few minutes. But that was already pushing it!
Finally, they separated, and Hugo glanced around the gym. It was completely empty.
Hugo grinned. "One-on-one?"
"One-on-one."
But just before they started, a thought crossed his mind.
He still had Mastery Points and Credits from his system. Should he spend some to get volleyball skills?
For a moment, he seriously considered it. But then he shook his head.
"Nah. Not needed. It's just volleyball. How hard could it be? All he had to do was give the bouncy ball a spank, right?"
Lily clapped her hands together. "Let's make this more interesting."
Hugo raised an eyebrow. "Oh?"
"If you lose," Lily said with a devious grin, "you have to come to all my volleyball games for the next month."
Hugo nearly choked on air.
"ALL of them?!"
"All of them."
Hugo frowned. That was a lot of time commitment. Not to mention gas expenses when his Benz was repaired.
But before he could argue, Lily continued.
"But if I lose... I'll do any three things you say. No questions asked."
...
Hugo's brain stopped working.
"Did I just unlock a legendary side quest?!"
He slowly grinned.
"Deal."
