Chapter 281 - 167: The Way Home_2
Spending effort wasn’t the problem; the biggest issue was that consoling a girl could trigger unexpected chemistry, which was precisely the scenario Lin Wu didn’t want to see. Or maybe that’s why Lin Wu always found a way to tease Shana when she was happy. Since ancient times, the amorous have dealt with heartache, and nowadays, devotion leads to marriage. Once you marry, there’s buying a house, followed by raising little devils, toiling away for half a lifetime, only to look back and see nothing but a grave.
Everything started because he decided to comfort a girl.

"We’re here," said Shana, looking up at the manhole cover with the purest gaze. The next second, she burst into tears, hugging Lin Wu’s shoulders.
Lin Wu quickly comforted her, "It’s okay, we’ve arrived. You did great, really great." The poor girl had put too much pressure on herself.
"It’s not that," Shana said, her hands pulling at her hair, "I just remembered, this exit is outdoors."
Oh, crap! Now outside was all deep snow coming up to the thighs. It felt like taking the stairs for 30 floors home only to realize you forgot your keys. Lin Wu was at a loss for what to say.
If Shana wasn’t upset, Lin Wu would definitely go mad. But since she was already down, all he could do was comfort her, "No worries, we can go back, we have plenty of time."
"I’m sorry."
