Rin's relieved sigh was cute in Shelly's eyes. Plus, he was touching her and making a request of her. This was all a win in Shelly's book.
She had every intention of helping Rin even if he had not asked for her help. After all, she did not want Rin to get hurt or die. But having him ask her for help was also cute, and Shelly wanted to see more.
Not only that, she wanted to be the only one to see this expression on Rin's face as well.
'I want Rin to rely on me more. In fact, I want him to rely only on me and not look at anyone else. I need to get more powerful to achieve that. Once I become untouchable, I will make sure Rin never needs to look at anyone else.'
Shelly's eyes shined with desire and Rin pretended not to see it.
He was giving Shelly the benefit of the doubt that she did not deserve. But that was fine for now. They were in a dangerous situation, so Shelly could forgive Rin's shyness for the time being.
