In the hotel room.
Rhodey brought Gwen and Daisy back here.
"There's another guest room over there; you can stay here tonight, and as for where you want to go tomorrow, you decide."
Rhodey said to Daisy, then took her to see the guest room and asked her if she needed anything.
"I just need a change of clothes."
Daisy said somewhat awkwardly.
Speaking of which, she and Rhodey were not related, yet Rhodey not only saved her life but also arranged a place for her to stay for the night.
This made Daisy feel a kind of care she hadn't experienced for many years.
Even her own biological mother had never cared for her this much.
More often, it was just wanting to use her abilities, thinking she would be a good helper, nothing more.
Daisy had never seen familial affection in that woman's eyes.
"Okay, you rest well."
Rhodey nodded, then turned and went out, closing the door for Daisy.
In the living room outside, Gwen saw Rhodey come out and ran over to ask, "How is it? Is Daisy's mood still stable?"
"Hmm, not bad; at least she didn't cry."
Rhodey said.
Gwen swatted him playfully.
"Daisy is too pitiful. I suddenly feel so lucky! Not only do I have parents who have loved me since childhood, but I also met you!"
As Gwen spoke, she hugged Rhodey tightly, as if afraid he would disappear the next second.
"Rhodey, where do you think Daisy will go in the future?"
Gwen asked, still holding him.
"I don't know about that. We'll see where she wants to go then. I can drop her off if it's on the way."
Rhodey said.
Although Rhodey had some thoughts about Daisy, with his girlfriend right beside him, he couldn't openly do anything.
After all, he still had to consider Gwen's feelings.
But these were minor issues!
Rhodey felt he could handle it.
He had the hotel's room attendant buy a set of clothes.
After Rhodey took the bag from the female attendant, he turned and knocked on the guest room door.
"Daisy, can I come in?"
Rhodey asked from the doorway.
After waiting for a moment, the sound of slippers on the floor came from inside the room.
Then the guest room door opened.
Daisy, wearing a bathrobe, stood at the doorway, looking at Rhodey apologetically and saying, "I just took a shower. Come in."
She stepped aside to let Rhodey in.
After entering, Rhodey handed her the bag.
"These are some clothes I bought for you to change into. See if they fit."
Rhodey said.
Daisy took the bag and peeked inside.
There were outerwear, underwear, and pants—everything.
Rhodey was clearly very well prepared.
"Then please wait a moment. I'll be ready soon."
Daisy said, then took the bag and ran to the bathroom.
About ten minutes passed.
Daisy, having changed her clothes, walked out of the bathroom.
She was wearing the newly bought outfit, and it looked quite fitting.
"It fits well, thank you!"
Daisy walked up to Rhodey and thanked him again.
"Don't be so formal, it's just a set of clothes," Rhodey said. "We're going out to eat in a bit. Do you want to come along?"
Daisy was about to say she wasn't hungry, but before she could speak, her stomach rumbled.
This made Daisy blush instantly.
"You uncooperative stomach, you really picked the worst time to make noise!"
Daisy felt frustrated.
Rhodey, however, didn't think much of it. He simply said, "We'll come get you when we're about to leave. You can rest for a bit. We'll be heading out in about fifteen minutes."
"Mhm, okay."
Daisy responded softly, her head bowed, afraid Rhodey would see her flushed cheeks.
Only after Rhodey left did Daisy dare to lift her head.
"How embarrassing!"
She rubbed her hair in annoyance, feeling ashamed of her behavior just now.
After a while, Daisy suddenly looked down at the clothes she was wearing, a puzzled expression on her face.
"How did he know my size?"
As she thought about it, Daisy's face couldn't help but turn red again.
...
In the evening.
Rhodey and Gwen went to pick up Daisy, and the three of them went out for dinner together.
The day's events seemed to have little impact on the city.
Most ordinary person were still living normally, unaffected by the previous turmoil.
In fact, after Rhodey and his companions finished dinner, they even saw many people holding what looked like a celebratory event in a nearby square.
There was a large bonfire in the center of the square, and many people were singing and dancing around it.
It didn't look at all like the city had suffered a terrifying attack during the day!
These people truly had big hearts.
Rhodey thought.
Seeing the performance in the square, the three of them stopped to enjoy it.
Standing among the crowd, Daisy's gaze subconsciously fell on Rhodey beside her.
She couldn't remember the last time she felt so safe.
But now, with Rhodey by her side, Daisy felt as if she didn't have to think about anything.
She just needed to quietly follow him, eat, drink, and play, and be a happy and cheerful girl. That was enough.
No need to think about those violent things.
No need to consider where to go tomorrow.
Daisy really liked this feeling; she even wanted to just succumb to it.
But when she saw Gwen, who was holding Rhodey on his other side, Daisy instantly sobered up.
