In the end, An Qing still failed to tase him.
Security personnel arrived on the scene and took control of everyone present.
They managed to intervene just before she could shock Lin Hao in a vulnerable area.
Perhaps not wanting to escalate the situation, after learning the full story, the comic convention organizers did not make things difficult for An Qing.
They simply confiscated her taser gun.
The nine individuals were driven out, permanently banned from entering.
It was worth mentioning that the moment Lin Hao was being taken away, a blurry shadow suddenly flashed past at lightning speed.
It sliced open his belt, causing him to suffer a major embarrassment right in front of everyone.
Now, the three startled girls—An Yu and her companions—had been settled into the lounge to rest.
Ning Dongli, who was in the worst mood, remained motionless as she leaned against An Yu the entire time.
An Yu allowed her to do so.
How strange.
Why was An Qing here?
An Yu blinked expressionlessly as she gazed at An Qing on the other side.
The other girl was silently leaning back in her chair with her eyes closed, resting.
Looking at her like this, she did resemble the cosplayer from before quite a bit.
However, it was clear she was not wearing her cosplay outfit.
The female protagonist truly lived up to her title—her normal appearance had even higher stats than her cosplayed form.
But… had she come here to play by herself?
An Qing was An Qing, always performing in her true colors.
Still, something about it did not feel quite right.
An Yu tilted her head in puzzlement, still unable to figure it out.
“System, why do you think she is here?”
Since she could not figure it out, she might as well ask the System.
“Is it possible she came specifically to save the host?”
Even the System found itself almost laughing at its own suggestion.
Although the reborn female lead’s hatred value had been steadily decreasing, it had not dropped to that extent.
Even if it kept dropping, the System would not issue any rewards.
Although the System suspected that An Qing harbored unusual feelings toward An Yu, that was merely suspicion.
However… seeing what happened earlier, it really did look that way?
The System was also somewhat confused.
“Me? I am fine.”
An Yu blinked expressionlessly.
Did she look like someone who was in trouble?
At this moment, An Yu was still wearing that cosplay outfit.
She looked quite adorable, without the slightest trace of dishevelment.
In contrast, An Qing appeared somewhat exhausted.
Seeming to sense An Yu’s gaze, An Qing finally lifted her head and looked toward the girl who constantly occupied her thoughts.
The moment her eyes landed on the scene, she felt displeased.
“Tsk.”
The other party was currently pressed tightly against a girl An Qing did not recognize at all.
Both were wearing outfits of some unknown character.
It seemed that upon noticing her gaze, the unfamiliar girl fearfully snuggled even closer to An Yu.
This made An Qing feel even more irritated.
She had nearly forgotten that this was precisely why she had rushed over.
Those pieces of trash had been nothing more than an unexpected accident.
“Why did you come, An Qing?”
Now, something even more unexpected occurred.
An Yu took the initiative to speak to her.
Her tone carried a rare hint of confusion.
Clearly, An Yu had no idea why she was here.
An Qing stayed silent, pressing her lips together tightly.
This question was truly difficult for her to answer.
Because she herself did not know why she had come.
It was simply that after seeing the photos online, An Qing had become restless and unable to sit still.
The thought of An Yu constantly interacting with unfamiliar girls made her heart ache.
She could no longer remain at home.
Thus, from those photos, she had learned about this comic convention.
An Qing hated this feeling.
She did not want to see An Yu interacting with unknown girls in places she knew nothing about.
Knowing the location had been enough.
She had casually purchased an expensive ticket, worn the most ordinary clothes, called no one to accompany her, and did not plan on buying anything.
An Qing was not here to enjoy herself.
She had come solely because of the unease in her heart and her desire to see An Yu.
Along the way, An Qing had been filled with hesitation and confusion.
Because she did not know what she was doing here.
An Yu was out on a date with an unfamiliar girl.
So what about her?
What could she even do by coming over?
Using the identity of someone who was practically a stranger, what could An Qing… do?
Would it not change anything at all?
Even if she found her, what then?
An Qing had not considered what would come after, yet she had still come.
But…
It was good that she had come.
It was good that she had come…
Otherwise, An Yu would have been taken advantage of by that kind of trash…
An Qing gritted her teeth.
The anger in her eyes solidified, as if it could spit flames.
No matter what else, An Qing now understood one thing: allowing An Yu to go out alone was truly dangerous.
Especially when she was together with girls who needed her protection.
Perhaps because her anger had clouded her mind, An Qing suddenly stood up.
She walked slowly over to An Yu and looked down at her from above.
“Come home with me.”
She looked at An Yu and only at An Yu.
Her eyes held no room for anyone else.
This caused Ning Dongli, who was sitting beside An Yu, to tremble subconsciously.
She did not know An Qing.
However, from the way An Yu and An Qing interacted, it was clear they knew each other.
Moreover, it seemed she wanted to take An Yu away.
This instantly made Ning Dongli nervous.
She subconsciously tightened her hold on An Yu’s arm, as if carrying out a silent protest.
At least for now, she could not leave An Yu’s side.
Just a little longer…
Just a little longer would be enough.
“No.”
An Yu lifted her head and looked into An Qing’s eyes.
She refused without the slightest hesitation.
Today was her time with Ning Dongli.
She could not listen to anyone else.
“An Qing, you came just for this reason?”
She blinked.
Her eyes, adorned with purple contact lenses, looked particularly beautiful.
However, this made her emotions even harder to read.
“So what if I did?”
An Qing gritted her teeth.
Her gaze remained hollow.
Because… she could not feel at ease.
An Yu gazed into An Qing’s eyes, still feeling somewhat puzzled.
It really feels like this reborn female lead is concerned about me.
But it was so strange.
With such a high hatred value, she still wanted to save her and show concern for her…
What did it even mean?
The reborn female lead truly made no sense.
“An Qing… thank you for saving us.”
An Yu spoke softly.
“And thank you for your concern.”
“Thank you for coming over.”
Although An Yu still did not understand why she cared.
This string of thanks caused An Qing to nod slightly.
She had thought An Yu was about to agree to leave with her.
Even Ning Dongli grew somewhat panicked.
Because she had thought the same.
But no.
The girl lifted her head.
Her voice was filled with determination.
“Today, spending time with Ning Dongli is the most important thing.”
Today she was supposed to play with Ning Dongli.
It was a promise she had made long ago.
No one could change that.
Suddenly, she extended her hand toward An Qing.
“An Qing, want to come together?”
