Legends of Runeterra

Chapter 81: Flat A to Cheat the Big

In the Fulgrim Tavern, in Wei's solo practice room.

"Oh!"

The unprotected fist collided with the solid dummy, and with the last heavy straight punch, Wei stopped.

"Huhuhu~!"

Wei gasped for breath, staring at the dummy in front of him that was covered in red marks.

Her hands hung naturally, sweat ran down her arms and soaked the wounds. The slight tingling sensation made her heart slowly calm down.

Wei was wary of Li En at first. After all, he was only wrapped in a blanket and holding an unconscious girl, which was really suspicious.

After understanding the situation, Wei accepted the other party. However, Li En left without saying goodbye. Baobao was always worried about him, which made Wei feel a little resentful towards him.

Until that night, when faced with the purple monster that pounced on him with a hideous smile, Li En blocked it in desperation and knocked the monster back with one punch.

The smiling figure under the moonlight was deeply engraved in the girl's heart.

But due to her personality, Wei has always hidden this emotion.

After that, Li En settled down in the Fugen Tavern.

During this time together, it was obvious that Li En's identity, influence, and personal strength were all terrifyingly strong.

But she could treat everyone equally, and sometimes even after she played with Baobao, when she scolded Baobao, Li En would stand beside her and take the scolding.

Although they would do some other weird things afterwards, and would actively admit their mistakes and do it again next time, this wonderful atmosphere of equal coexistence allowed a bud to slowly grow in the girl's heart.

Facing Orianna, Caitlyn, and Seraphine, each one more beautiful than the other, Wei, who had realized her feelings, became more careful to hide them.

Wei, who originally had no confidence in her appearance, now realizes the huge gap between their worlds after personally coming into contact with the life of the upper class in Piltover.

At the tea party, she was actually the first one to notice Seraphine and Li En's little tricks, but her mind was so confused that she ended up saying nothing.

Later, Caitlyn called Li En out, and Wei, who had followed quietly, saw the two of them sticking together, which made this girl, who had always appeared to be very strong, completely break down.

"Hoo~!"

He let out a long sigh and slowly let go of the obsession in his heart.

The young feelings that had not yet been expressed were deeply buried by the girl at this moment.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Um!?"

A clear knock on the door woke the girl up.

"Who!"

"It's me, Li En!"

"Ah! Is...is there something?"

"I want to talk to you, do you have time now?"

Wei wanted to refuse in her heart, but what she said was: "Okay...Okay!"

As soon as she finished saying this, Wei felt regretful. She didn't have time to cover her hands, so she quickly hid them behind her back.

"Crack!"

"Good evening, Wei. I saw you on my way back home today..."

Li En, who pushed the door open, suddenly smelled a faint smell of blood. Looking at the bloody dummy next to the girl and the other's hands behind her back, Li En frowned and the smile on his face disappeared.

"Good evening, Li En!"

Facing Li En's gaze, Wei spoke somewhat unnaturally.

"Could you please wait for me outside? I've just been sweating a lot and want to..."

"Hands out!"

"what!?"

"I said, put your hand out!"

Seeing that Wei was not making any move, Li En stopped talking nonsense and quickly walked up to the girl.

"Hey! What are you doing! Wait, I'm fine, don't..."

While the girl was struggling, Li En reached behind her back and grabbed her arms, which were slippery due to sweat. With a force that the girl could not resist, he slowly pulled her hands to the front.

"Is this what you mean by okay? Huh?"

Looking at the girl's hand in front of him, where sweat and blood mixed together and white bones could be vaguely seen, Li En's voice suppressed his anger.

"..."

Facing Li En's questioning, Wei had a lot to say in her heart, but feelings are a very personal thing, and given their relationship, what qualifications did she have to say anything about the other person?

With her emotions surging in her heart, the girl still didn't speak, but just turned her head away and didn't look at the other person.

"Hey~! Sit down, I'll give you some medicine!"

Li En sighed softly and pulled Wei to sit on a chair nearby.

Then he took out the medicine from the magic pocket, half-knelt in front of the girl, and began to clean the wound bit by bit, with gentle and careful movements.

"If it hurts, tell me!"

When pouring the disinfectant alcohol, Li En raised his head and whispered a reminder.

Hearing the other person's gentle tone, like coaxing a child, Wei's heart trembled slightly, and as the pain brought by the alcohol took her down, the girl's eyes turned red.

"Tick-tock! Tick-tock!"

In the quiet room, the sound of tears dripping on clothes could be clearly heard, and Li En paused.

"Wei, what's wrong with you? Did I hurt you?"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

It would have been fine if Li En didn't say anything, but as soon as he started talking, Wei cried even harder, and her tears couldn't stop flowing.

Looking at the girl who couldn't stop crying, and considering that she had been in an abnormal state today, Li En gradually had some guesses in his mind.

So he didn't say anything more, but gently put his arms around the other person's shoulders, trying to pull the girl to lean on his shoulders.

"Do not touch me!"

"Uh, sorry, I just..."

"It's Seraphine again, and Caitlyn again, Li En, you are a bastard!"

"what!?"

"Why are you playing dumb? I saw it all! First it was under the table, then it was in that little garden!"

After speaking out, Wei could no longer suppress his emotions and blurted them all out.

"But...what does this have to do with you?"

Facing the girl's accusation, Li En pointed out the key point directly.

"I..."

Seeing that the girl was speechless, Li En pressed the issue: "Since you already know everything, I won't hide it from you! Seraphine and I were just an accident, and Caitlyn was the one who took the initiative. Apart from standing up for them, what right do you have to blame me?"

Under Li En's continuous questioning, Wei's anger continued to accumulate and his face became redder and redder.

"because I like you!"

"Ah this..."

The moment she said it, Wei began to regret it, but seeing Li En's dazed look, an inexplicable impulse surged in her heart, and she was too lazy to think so much at this moment.

The next moment, Wei grabbed Li En's collar with one hand, circled his neck with the other, and pressed her soft lips against his.

"Well!?"

To be honest, Wei's performance was terrible. It was more like she bumped into him rather than kissed him, and she just stayed motionless after that, with no next step at all.

Just when Wei was about to let go of Li En, he was suddenly hugged by the other party.

"Wait... wooo!"

At this moment, the offensive and defensive momentum is different.

...

"Crack!"

The doors of the two sisters' rooms were opened, and Baobao watched his elder sister walk in with her hands wrapped in gauze.

"Sister, you practiced for a long time today!"

"Really? It's okay!"

"Hey, sister, why is your mouth swollen?"

"Really? You're seeing things, go to bed!"

"Oh..."

Under Wei's majesty, Baobao obediently lay on his little bed.
