Chapter 77: Chapter 7 Excommunication-12
March locked the door and returned to his room. Li was sitting on his bed. When she saw him, her eyes drooped like a puppy nervously waiting to get punished. March brushed her tousled hair and smiled.
”Good job.”
”Huh?”
”That girl did something bad to you, right? Then you can't just sit around and take it. Good job, Li.”
He brought over ointment and bandages and treated her arm. Li secretly glanced at him and nervously opened her mouth.
”Um, March?”
”Yes?”
”Didn't you like that girl?”
”What?”
March lifted his head in utter horror. He saw Li's clear green eyes. She did believe that he liked Alice. He sighed.
”White Rabbit kept saying that, and now you too. Hey, I don't want to hear that, especially from you...What I mean is, I don't like her. No, I hate her. That is a secret to White Rabbit. White Rabbit cares for Alice.”
Not yet calmed down from the fight and anger toward Alice, Li blurted out her thoughts. ”How can someone care for a girl like her? That girl thinks that she can make White Rabbit do whatever she wants.”
”What are you talking about?”
Li, realizing what she just said, jumped in surprise and closed her mouth. Knowing no one would believe her, she had decided to take this secret to the grave.
But this was March. Li thought back to the one that had protected not Alice but her. It was March. She hesitantly opened her mouth.
”My real name is not Alice. I—I'm the real…”
She told him her real name and about her parents' death. She told him how Alice had snatched her body and how she had completely lost it to her and ended up waking up in this new body.
