Underworld Salvage Master [Comprehensive Yingmei]

night.

Oscar got off a taxi, and he carried a black bag and walked towards the gate of the apartment building.

It was getting late, the apartment building was quiet, and most people had turned off their lights to rest.

He went upstairs and stood in front of his door, ready to get the key to open the door.

"Oscar!" Karen stood up from the dark corner of the corridor and called softly.

Oscar was taken aback, turned his head to look, and then smiled pleasantly: "Hey, Karen! Why are you hiding there, are you trying to scare me?" Then he walked towards Karen.

Karen looked at Oscar, shook her head and said, "No, I'm just waiting here for your return."

Oscar reached out and touched her arm, and asked with a trace of surprise: "How long have you been waiting here? There is hardly any heat on your body, why don't you wear a coat, aren't you cold?"

Karen smiled and said, "I just forgot to put on my coat, and I'm cold, so please open the door and let me in for a cup of hot tea!"

"Oh! Of course!" Oscar hurriedly opened the door of his house and let Karen in. He put down the black bag in his hand on the chair and walked quickly into the kitchen to boil hot water. "You shouldn't wait outside. Come on, I said I'll call you when I get back!"

Karen walked up to him, watched him put the kettle on the stove and lit it, and said, "Sorry, I can't do anything until you come back, so I have to come here and wait for you!"

"What?" Oscar looked at Karen in surprise, smiled, and said, "You can't... suddenly realize that you fell in love with me, so, now... are you here to confess your love to me?"

Karen shook her head and said, "No, I said that I have no feelings for you other than being a friend. I'm sorry, Oscar. I'm here for that medicine, remember? You found it for me before, it's used to detoxify Frost Poison antidote."

Oscar looked at Karen in disappointment, and asked, "What's wrong with that antidote? Why did you suddenly ask this? I thought..."

"Is that antidote... Loki gave you?" Karen looked at Oscar, "Can you tell me the truth? Oscar, I want to know the truth."

Oscar didn't answer, and looked at Karen silently.

"It was Loki who gave you the antidote, right?" Karen could see the answer from Oscar's eyes, but she not only wanted to confirm this, she also wanted Oscar to tell her why Loki gave him the antidote ! "Oscar?"

Oscar sighed deeply, and said, "Since you asked this question, you should know it very well."

"No, I just know... what the antidote is all about!" Karen said in a low voice, "But, I don't quite understand why the antidote came from your hand, you and Loki... "At that time in Asgard, people who didn't like each other, why would Loki be willing to give the antidote to Oscar, and what happened to these two of them? "I would like to know……"

"What you want to know is actually very simple. That Loki guy asked me to give you the antidote, so I'll give it to you!" Oscar replied, "It's that simple!"

"How could Loki give you the antidote so easily!" Karen shook his head, "Don't lie to me, did you make a deal with him? Did you promise Loki something in order to understand the antidote?"

Oscar fell silent suddenly.

Karen looked at Oscar and said, "What did you promise Rocky?"

Oscar didn't answer.

Karen stared at Oscar, he began to avoid her sight, she waited for his answer, but his subtle movements showed that he was not willing to answer her.

The two stood opposite each other, for a while, no one spoke, and the water in the kettle that was boiling on the stove in the kitchen made a slight sound.

After a while, Karen put her hand on Oscar's arm and said, "Oscar, tell me, what exactly did you promise Loki?"

"I didn't promise him anything!" Oscar smiled, "Don't worry, I have no deal with that guy, nothing!"

"I don't believe it!" Karen said. "If not, why did you keep silent for so long? Oscar! Tell me, please? I need to know!"

At this moment, the kettle suddenly whistled beside them.

Oscar turned and turned off the stove, opened the cupboard and took out a white mug, and said, "I still have some instant coffee here, do you want to make a cup for you?"

Karen shook her head and said, "No! Just give me hot water to warm my hands!"

Oscar nodded, and after adding water to the mug with the kettle, he handed the mug to Karen and said, "About the antidote..." He looked up at her, "Don't worry, I have no deal with him .”

"If not, why do you hesitate?" Karen took the cup, "Tell me, Oscar."

Oscar smiled and said: "Hey, don't frown, Karen, there is no deal between me and Rocky, I can tell you this with certainty, but... well, I have an agreement with him, and you don't need that agreement Worry, I didn't sign any life and death agreement, understand what I mean?"

"I don't understand!" Karen held the cup and said, "That so-called agreement made me worry about you even more."

"Are you worried about me?" Oscar looked at Karen with a smile, "I am very touched by what you said! Karen, I have to say that I am very grateful for your concern."

"Since you are very moved, why don't you tell me what agreement you made with him, so that I can rest assured?" Karen looked back at Oscar, "You just have the heart to look at me and worry about you?"

"Oh, of course I can't bear it! I'm sorry, I can't say it!" Oscar leaned against the cabinet, "Actually, this is just an agreement between men, it's not a big deal, anyway, I have already completed the agreement, and so has he, and now this agreement has been completed Obsolete, no longer exists."

Karen stared fixedly at Oscar, without saying a word.

Oscar bent his lips, looked at Karen for a long time, showed an expression of "I surrender", and said helplessly, "You have to know?"

Karen hummed and nodded.

Oscar was silent for a while, and said, "Okay, I... I'll just say it!"

"Say it!" Karen said softly.

Oscar clasped his arms and pondered for a moment, then said: "My agreement with him is very simple, he asked me to give you the antidote, and I want him... to stay away from you."

Karen choked, would Rocky agree to Oscar's request?

"I don't want to tell you about this agreement, just because..." Oscar looked at Karen's expression, "It seems that even if you don't say it, it will end the same, right?"

"What?" Karen asked.

Oscar smiled and said, "Karen, I don't want to lose my last hope. Even though you have been unwilling to accept me, it seems that I... have lost it a long time ago..." There was a trace of sadness in the smile on his face.

Karen lowered her eyes and looked at the mug in her hand. The curling heat was swaying in front of her eyes. She understood what Oscar was talking about. For some reason, at this moment, she didn't have the usual courage to tell him frankly, yes, You are right, Oscar, yes, I do not want to accept you.

"Why didn't you speak?" Oscar asked.

Karen slowly raised her eyes, looked at Oscar, and said, "If I could be more realistic, I should accept you, Oscar, I should do that! But, I can't. I also know that if I say that, it will hurt you heart, I'm sorry."

She couldn't say anything other than sorry.

Oscar fell silent. He looked at Karen, stared at her face for a long time, and asked, "Do you hate me? Because I keep pestering you, I don't want to give up on you, and I can get you by constantly thinking hard. Hate me?"

Karen shook her head silently.

Oscar nodded and said, "Thank you, Karen."

Thanks?Karen looked at Oscar suspiciously.

"I thought you wouldn't know about the antidote, yes, I used to think so for sure." Oscar said slowly, "I thought you wouldn't know about it, and you would gradually forget about Loki. Will slowly accept me, I thought I was just one step late to confess, but it doesn’t seem to be the case, right? I’m not one step slow, but a lot slower, I wasted ten years in vain, I’m helpless I watched you dating that man named Alex, but I didn't think that I should snatch you from that man, because, I thought that was the life you wanted, and after you broke up with him, I mustered It took me the courage to confess, but it would be too late by then, right?" He smiled bitterly, "Loki, he is in your heart."

Karen bit her lip and looked at Oscar without saying a word.

Oscar stared at Karen and said, "He, is it worth it?

"No, he's not worth it!" Karen said suddenly.

Oscar was taken aback.

Karen put down the water glass and said, "He doesn't deserve my love, he cheated me, so he's not worthy." She smiled, "We've known each other for so many years, I'm afraid no one knows me better than you, Oscar."

"Yes, I know you well, so since you asked me about the antidote, I knew that there would never be a possibility between you and me." Oscar replied.

"I'm sorry," Karen said.

Oscar looked at her silently for a while, then said, "I accept your apology, Karen."

Karen bent her lips, smiled a little, and said, "When I get old, I might show off to the young children that your grandma used to be amazing, even Pluto once pursued me!"

Oscar laughed and said, "Are you sure, when you became a grandma, I was already Pluto?"

"If not, then I will tell the children that the heir of Pluto has pursued me!" Karen said.

Oscar showed a helpless smile and said, "You really know how to adapt."

Karen shrugged and said innocently: "So, in order for me to show you off, you'd better become Pluto as soon as possible!"

"I..." Oscar nodded and said, "Alright, let me try my best!"

"Oscar!" Karen called, looking up at him.

Oscar smiled and asked, "What?"

Karen said earnestly, "Thank you, thank you for loving me!"

Oscar stared deeply at Karen, opened his arms, and said, "Okay, since you thank me, then give me a hug!"

Karen smiled and walked towards him.

At this moment, the kettle behind Oscar suddenly hit his foot from the stove.

Oscar frowned, stretched out his hand to cast a spell, straightened the kettle and stopped in mid-air, he raised his eyes and frowned.

Karen raised her eyebrows, and followed Oscar's line of sight, looking out of the kitchen.
