Yan Zheng was taken aback, and instinctively wanted to push Ashley away, but his body had not fully recovered, and his entire torso was still in a semi-frozen state.

Besides, even if he had the strength, he couldn't push it away after reacting. Ashley hugged her closely, and she could feel the temperature of her body through the sturdy mech.

Yan Zheng realized that the reason why the girl in front of him had always targeted him before was probably because she liked him. Seeing Ashley crying so truly, remembering his previous impatient attitude towards Ashley, Yan Zheng suddenly felt remorseful.

"Ashley, I'...... What I did was wrong before, and please don't be surprised. Yan Zheng's voice was as low as a mosquito, but fortunately a metal mask covered his blushing face, otherwise he would have been ridiculed.

Ashley instantly put away her crying and said writhingly, "Uh, that...... Actually, I ...... Be...... Loved it...... Strict seniors. ”

After this life-and-death battle, Ashley felt that Yan Zheng would not really understand if she didn't tell her directly. Loving someone should not be hidden in your heart at all, if you don't say it solemnly, then she will take the initiative to say it.

"Hmm." Yan Zheng nodded decently, as if listening to a mathematical equation that had been solved. In reality, he had no idea why he was nodding.

Ashley was disappointed, "In this way, Senior Yan Zheng must hate me very much." Otherwise, I should have answered as well. ”

"Uh-" Yan Zheng opened his mouth, his face turned purple behind the metal mask, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

He never thought about it. In his college career, in addition to practicing diligently, he concentrated on law enforcement, and his life was as calm as a lake, until Ashley just said that the lake in his heart rippled.

No, not ripples, it's stormy waves, it's just that he's pretending to be calm under a metal mask.

Does he like Ashley? Ashley is younger than him, and her stature is much shorter, and she has two shallow dimples on her cheeks when she laughs, which is very cute, and her eyes are like autumn rainbows, as if she can see through people's hearts. But that wasn't enough to be the reason he loved her.

Does he not like Ashley? It's hard to say that he risked his life to rescue Ashley this time, purely out of guilt for Ashley, if he didn't like Ashley, he wouldn't have any guilt in his heart at all.

This question is too difficult and too difficult. For Yan Zheng, he even wished he was still in an ice coffin, so that he wouldn't have to answer Ashley.

Fortunately, at this time, Luo Sheng also put on the black mecha and walked towards them.

"Are you two alright?"

"It's okay, it's okay!" Ashley waved her hand eagerly, hating why Luo Sheng came at such an inopportune time.

Yan Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly struggled to stand up, "Luo Sheng, thank you for saving your life, I can't remember exactly, this is the first time you have saved me." ”

Obviously, helping him out of Ashley's problems is also equivalent to saving his life.

Luo Sheng smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "We are old comrades-in-arms, why are you still polite to me?" ”

Yan Zheng smiled innocently, looked around at the mess around him, and then asked Luo Sheng, "It's all settled?" ”

Luo Sheng shook his head, "Everything here has been solved, but on the way to intercept us, a few of them were knocked to the ground by us, and it is not a complete solution." ”

Yan Zheng immediately volunteered: "Let me go!" All of Valan's Heart students must faint and lose consciousness and mobility in order to be judged to be out of the game. As soon as they are out, they are the last ones. ”

Luo Sheng said: "I think so too, but your body has not recovered yet, just leave this matter to me." Your task now is to take Ashley back to your teammates the way we came. ”

"Yes, yes!" Ashley hugged Yan Zheng and said solemnly: "At this time, we must listen to Luo Sheng's words, Luo Sheng's words are impossible to be wrong." ”

"Uh, but ......" Yan Zheng wanted to defend something more, but as Luo Sheng said, his physical condition really didn't allow it. Now it is the safest choice for him to take Ashley back to his teammates. One is to keep them safe, and the other is to reassure other teammates.

"That's it." Luo Sheng said solemnly: "Ashley, take care of Yan Zheng for me." ”

"Don't worry!" Ashley firmly clamped her waist tightly.

Luo Sheng approached Yan Zheng and said in a low voice: "Yan Zheng, some things must be talked about openly and honestly sooner or later, and it is better to explain early than late." ”

"Uh......"

Without waiting for a solemn reaction, Luo Sheng quickly ran towards the direction of the other four Valan's Heart students with his feet.

Yan Zheng struggled in vain a few times, trying to break free from Ashley's support, but finally gave up. The two of them walked slowly in the direction of their teammates in the misty swamp.

Along the way, no one spoke first. Ashley was worried that Yan Zheng would say that she didn't like her, so she just hugged Yan Zheng tightly. Yan Zhengze kept thinking about the complicated relationship between himself and Ashley.

"Ashley ......"

When he was about to reach the position of his teammates in the Misty Swamp, Yan Zheng finally took the lead in speaking.

"Huh?" Ashley's heart tightened.

"Didn't you ask me ...... just now" Yan Zheng licked his dry lips and whispered: "Didn't you ask me just now, do you like you or not?" ”

Luo Sheng is right, this matter must be talked about openly and honestly sooner or later, rather than being muddy and unclear all the time, it is better to explain it neatly.

"That'...... Do you like me? Ashley asked, blushing.

Yan Zheng was silent for a while, and then said softly: "I can't answer this question now." But what I can tell you is that I ...... Belch...... I don't hate you. ”

"Really?!" Ashley, who was already prepared for disappointment, was overjoyed when she heard this result.

"Yes, and, I'm going to treat you to dinner. After the completion of the Eight Stars Competition, of course. ”

"Just the two of us?"

"Well, just the two of us."

"Oh yes!" Ashley hugged Yan Zheng hard, and did not hide her excitement: "Great, Senior Yan Zheng!" Oh yes! ”

Yan Zheng said embarrassedly: "That...... Actually, you don't need to call me senior, just call me stern. ”

"Uh-huh!" Ashley pondered for a moment and called out softly, "Solemn." ”

Yan Zheng's heartbeat suddenly stalled.

At this moment, he realized that he actually liked this girl, but he couldn't be sure before
