About Me Being Adopted by Talula (Complete).

Summary

In this chapter, Zhialu uses her authority to drag Orson out of a gathering, insisting it’s just a guard appointment, despite the evident tension and speculation from others like Talula and Frost Nova. Orson, unprepared, finds himself defending against their questions while pleading for help from the indifferent Patriotic Master. As they escape to the street, Zhialu reveals her playful side, shedding her noble demeanor. Orson experiences a moment of admiration for her as a normal teenager rather than a noble, which contrasts his awkwardness about their situation. Zhialu explains her desire for Orson to be her guard as they investigate the aftermath of a recent incident in Qie City. They visit Peterheim High School, where Orson faces the wrath of Lindent for his absence, leading to relief and a friendly reunion with the Bear Squad. As they move forward, they discuss new educational reforms at the school aimed at breaking down class barriers, reflecting on the changes triggered by past crises. Their journey continues to the commercial street, now restored and vibrant. They encounter Ino performing on stage, which surprises Orson, who reflects on Ino's past struggles and emotional turmoil. Orson gently reassures Ino, who is grappling with guilt and fear over his past actions and the death of Sasha, helping him understand that while he may have acted for safety and security, he should not take pleasure in causing harm. The chapter combines themes of identity, growth, and the complexities of moral choices in the face of one’s past.
