Ani recalled what he had experienced in the past few years, including the death of his adoptive father, being hunted down while investigating intelligence, and witnessing countless innocent residents being killed by giants.
Her eyes turned red unconsciously, and she hugged Su Sheng tightly, hoping that the person in front of her would never leave her.
Su Sheng felt the lining of his chest becoming moist. It seemed that Ani was remembering the past again.
"You must have suffered a lot when I was away. I will stay with you from now on."
Su Sheng hugged Ani with both arms. She had endured too much pain. He should have taken her away from Marais in the first place and not let her inherit some bullshit female giant and let Ani become like this.
"Father, father is gone. The last words he and I said were, let me find you, let me pursue my own happiness."
Ani's crying voice came out intermittently, sobbing and telling all his grievances.
"I really thought you would stay with Larry's family for the rest of your life. I also saw Marcel being eaten by giants, and there were so many innocent people inside the wall..."
The person in her arms had eyes swollen from crying. Su Sheng was like a ray of light, illuminating her otherwise dark starry sky and guiding her forward.
Ani's voice became smaller and smaller. Su Sheng picked her up. The traces of tears flowing across Ani's cheeks were so obvious. This was the catharsis of her emotions and her most vulnerable side. The two tear marks were like It pierced Su Sheng's heart like a sharp sword.
He originally just wanted to come to Parade Island and try to intercept Hu Mikasa to fulfill his own wishes.
But when he met Ani, his original intention changed. Now he just wanted to protect Ani from being wronged and to live freely. It was time for him to restrain himself.
Su Sheng felt her heart hurt like a knife. It turned out that Ani was already so important in her heart. In fact, life is like this. When chasing a distant goal, who knows whether you will meet the most important person in your life at the next intersection? It is this uncertainty that makes life full of meaning and passion.
Su Sheng carried Ani to Karula's residence, which was very close to the training corps dormitory, and only Karula lived there.
Su Sheng gently put Ani on the bed and covered her with a quilt.
"Sorry, Carol."
"It doesn't matter. I will take good care of her tonight. You haven't eaten yet, right? I left some extra bread and soup for you and Allen. You can eat it first."
Karula was a very gentle and virtuous person. She cut the bread into small pieces, put it in a bowl, put it on the table, and wanted to feed Su Sheng with her own hands.
"No, I'm not very hungry. You can eat."
Su Sheng waved his hand, and Karula was a little at a loss. In the past, Su Sheng would ask her to feed him with her own hands when no one was around. What happened today?
"What happened? Why do you look so bad?"
"It's okay Karula, I'm just not hungry. I'll just bring those to Allen and the others. You can rest early."
Su Sheng picked up the lunch box and walked out of Karula's residence, walking towards the dormitory step by step.
"What happened to you?"
Looking at Su Sheng's bleak back, Karula felt sad. She regarded Su Sheng as her junior and lover. She could tell there was something between Su Sheng and the girl named Ani lying on the bed. He is much older than him, and something like this will happen sooner or later.
As night fell, Karula lay on the bed and fell asleep with Ani in her arms.
When Ani opened his eyes, he smelled a fresh fragrance and saw a beautiful young woman in front of him hugging him, while he slept on her arm for a long time.
"Ah, you're awake. It's getting light. It's time for me to get up."
Karula rubbed her eyes and greeted Ani with a smile.
Ani recognized Karula as Allen's mother. She heard that she was also very kind to Su Sheng, but she didn't expect to look so young and beautiful.
"Hello, aunt, why am I here?"
A trace of disappointment flashed in Karula's eyes, and then she covered her mouth and laughed.
"Our little Su Sheng brought you here and asked you to sleep here last night. By the way, you didn't eat anything last night, right? I'll go and warm some for you."
Karula's busy figure kept walking through the room, and Ani put on her shoes and started to help.
"Arnie, this will make the food taste better. Su Sheng likes sweeter bread, so you can add a little sugar..."
Ani, who had never learned anything before, looked a little clumsy, but Karula patiently taught her every step of cooking.
"From now on, Su Sheng can eat the food you cook."
"Auntie, what are you talking about?"
Ani was a little shy when she fixed her hair. She didn't know how to cook for Su Sheng. He should be the one to do it. And what should I do if the food I cooked didn't taste good?
Ani, who was thinking about running the train, was a little at a loss and stood there like a good girl.
"You will be the one to take care of Su Sheng from now on. Auntie can still see that. Ani, you must be good to Su Sheng, okay?"
Karula looked at Ani begging, and Ani nodded and continued to learn cooking skills with Karula.
The gentle Karula would talk about Su Sheng's embarrassing stories from time to time. When talking about the first time Allen met Su Sheng and thought Su Sheng was a girl, Ani also covered his mouth and laughed with Karula.
"gather!"
After hearing the order, Ani said goodbye to Karula and hurried towards the training ground.
