2159 Side Story: Post-Battle Mission (End)

At that moment, Big Dippers tone suddenly turned gentle. Wanda, I really like you

Wandas face suddenly burned.

Big Dipper: But thats because you are indeed cute. I know that this isnt love.

The witchs hot face suddenly froze. Her lips trembled, but she couldnt say anything.

Big Dipper put his hands on her shoulders. I need you to think carefully do you really love me? Or do you just like me?

Wanda was stunned. That

Like and love were simple words, but they carried different meanings in English.

Most young people didnt need to like each other when they were h.o.r.n.y they could sleep together to scratch the itch.

Thus, for a man and a woman to sleep together because they liked each other was already very decent.

Love was undoubtedly an even more extravagant word.

Even though most people said, I love you, they knew that it was just an exaggeration.

Only when they said I love you to their parents and children did it feel natural.

In a sense, only when a man loved his girlfriend as much as he loved his family would he not feel guilty when he said, I love you.

What did I love you at the level of the family mean?

Some 70- to 80-year-old parents raised fat shut-in sons who were a total failure.

Even though they scolded their son every now and then, they still couldnt bear to chase them out.

Few men could do that to their girlfriends.

Unless the woman was rich or beautiful, a man wouldnt have much tolerance.

A fat shut-in son basically didnt have any money, and was usually disliked by his parents, who would never get back what they put into him.

When Wanda heard Big Dippers words, she immediately understood what he was getting at.

Big Dipper wouldnt casually say, I love you.

Even I like you Hm, fine, most people in the Justice League avoided him.

Want him to tell them that he liked them? Sorry, it was definitely that kind of like where you were cut into dozens of pieces and then turned into roast meat with a plasma cannon.

Such a formal question made Wanda realize something she hadnt noticed before: Did she really love Big Dipper?

She was willing to block blades and cannons for Big Dipper, and didnt ask for anything in return.

But this was the duty and responsibility between comrades in the Justice League.

The Dark Knight and Black Cat would also do this for Wanda. Did that mean that they both loved her?

Then, exactly what did she like or love about Big Dipper? As Wanda asked herself this question, she suddenly realized that the answer didnt come as easy as she had imagined.

She liked Big Dippers company, guidance, scolding, and the sense of security he exuded. It was more like she was in front of a father?

Wanda immediately rejected this theory.

When she was with Big Dipper, she would subconsciously get close to him and fantasize about many intimate scenes.

She didnt hate these fantasies, nor did she reject the occasional intimate contact with him.

On the contrary, just imagining herself calling him Dad made her feel uncomfortable.

Observing her expression and confirming his thoughts, Big Dipper smiled. See, you actually dont know for sure which one it is, or which one you feel more, right?

Wanda thought for a moment before she nodded in agreement.

Big Dipper patted her shoulder hard. Do you remember how I taught you to face problems? Give yourself more time to think carefully before you make a decision.

Wanda nodded, then frowned and looked at him suspiciously. Are you stalling for time?

Of course, this was psychology which he had taught her himself.

Big Dipper drew back his hand and put on a serious expression. He shook his head and said, No do you know how long our team members can live for? At least 150 years old.

Wanda was confused. What does that have to do with us?

Big Dipper: Based on the medical data, the problem for you and me is not the minimum length of time, but the maximum.

Wanda roughly understood and asked tentatively, Then, is it 200 or 300 years for us?

Big Dipper: It starts at 500 years.

What? Stunned, Wandas mouth dropped open.

300 years should be for you to maintain your youth and not age. Big Dipper spread his hands. For us, if we make a decision at the beginning of our lives, its probably like a regular five-year-old girl shouting that she wants to get married?

Wanda lowered her head and looked at her chest. Are you implying that I look like a little girl?

For a moment, she had mixed feelings, and didnt know whether to be happy or angry.

Hundreds of years of a never-aging life was definitely good news for a woman.

But it wasnt that wonderful if there was no one to accompany her during her long life and admire her ageless appearance.

Seeing that, Big Dipper smiled and put his arm around her shoulders as they strolled down the street. Do you see this street?

Wanda nodded.

Big Dipper said, Weve walked a short distance, and have yet to see the rest. If we leave right away, wont you be curious about what the rest of the street is like?

Wanda looked around and curled her lip. This street is actually nothing compared with the other streets weve been on.

Fine, youre clearly my student. Big Dipper cursed inwardly.

After a brief silence, he said, Then I wont look at the scenery on other streets anymore. Are you fine with that?

Wanda hesitated.

Just now, she had just needled him like they were wont to do with each other, but both of them knew the real meaning behind this question.

If she said yes, she would get an answer, but it probably wouldnt be the one she wanted.

Besides, what he said earlier had made her rethink their relations.h.i.+p.

After being splashed with cold water a few times, she calmed down and thought about it; what she had initially thought would be a conclusive answer was no longer so definite.

There was no need to consider true love.

Seeing that she didnt reply for a long time, Big Dipper naturally understood that this was her answer.

He nodded. So, lets make a deal.

Wanda still didnt say anything and just looked at him.

Ill treat you the same for the next 100 years. After that, Ill give you an answer. Or Big Dipper looked at her. After you think it through, you can give me an answer at any time.

Wandas expression was complicated, and she gritted her teeth.

After a long while, she nodded slowly. Okay, I agree.

Big Dipper smiled and raised his left pinky. Pinky swear?

The witch lowered her head and stared blankly at his finger for a moment, before she quickly locked pinkies with him.

Their hands swayed a few times, and she couldnt help but glare at him. Do you make a promise like this with everyone else?

Big Dipper smiled. Of course not, but youre a little witch.

Wanda snorted and wrinkled her pretty nose. I was already an adult when I met you, alright?

Big Dipper: But I think youre still little.

Wanda asked, How am I little?

Big Dipper: Alright, lets discuss it on our long trip.

Wanda asked, How long? A week, a month?

Big Dipper: Hm, how about 500 years?

Wanda: Fine, go on.

On the sunny Paris street, the two figures moved further and further away as they spoke in low voices. Their pinkies remained hooked together as they disappeared into the crowd in the distance.
