Chapter 279: Rest day, great assist from Xiaowang!
Battle outside the pyramid.
Shinji put his hands in his pockets and looked into the distance calmly.
He still lost.
Finally, when the Ice Pillar's freezing light penetrated the hardened plants and hit the Earth Turtle, the outcome of the battle was determined.
However, he was not disappointed. Instead, this battle made him feel a different side of his Pokémon.
Perhaps, there really is such a thing as bond.
Just then, a casual voice broke Shinji's peace.
"What are you doing, thinking about life alone?"
Xiaoyun also put his hands in his pockets and walked to Shinji's side. Since he was free anyway, he might as well see if this cold and aloof boy was affected.
Shinji turned around and looked at Xiaoyun, frowning and asked, "Why did you come out? Didn't you say you were going to challenge Mr. Kamishiro?"
Xiao Yun shrugged helplessly and spread his hands, saying, "No, Mr. Kamishiro rejected me."
"He said something like 'Boy, let's stop fighting today and meet again another day', and that was it."
He was indeed going to find Kamishiro. After all, there was no reason not to fight with such a top-level trainer in front of him, right?
As a result, he had just finished fighting with Shinji, exchanged a few words with Raiji and Xiaozhi, and was ready to retreat, not giving him any chance at all.
Damn, is it because he's not the protagonist?
At this point, Xiao Yun seemed to have thought of something, just like chatting with a good brother.
He also subconsciously put his arm on Shinji's shoulder, completely ignoring the latter's slightly frowned brows, and spoke to himself:
“Well, I think that although Mr. Kamishiro said so, it must be because he fought with you before.”
“Look, after all, the three pillars are not in good shape right now. If I challenge them now, I might be able to win! Mr. Kamishiro definitely doesn’t want to suffer this loss, so…”
The result of the battle was indeed that Kamishiro won, but Reggieice's situation was not much better. The final lush characteristic of the Tortoise was triggered, and the hardened plants that burst out at full force almost all hit Reggieice.
Unfortunately, Turtle is not Little Pixie after all, and was killed by Reggie Ace with low health.
Shinji listened quietly to Xiaoyun who kept chattering and complaining about Kamishiro.
For some reason, he didn't feel annoyed at all. Instead, he wanted to listen carefully.
This feeling made him feel very strange. After all, he was usually very impatient with such nagging.
After a while, when Xiaoyun finally stopped complaining, Shinji slowly said, "Thank you very much."
"What's wrong? Why are you saying thank you all of a sudden?"
Xiaoyun looked at Shinji with a puzzled expression, as if to say, "Hey, you are here to make me feel sentimental, right?"
"fine."
Shinji's face turned a little dark, and he squeezed out a word from between his teeth.
There was a hint of displeasure in his tone, but more of it was embarrassment.
Damn it, why should he say thank you? He obviously didn't do anything.
As if to ease the awkward atmosphere, Shinji asked again: "Why, do you want to stay here?"
"I'll stay a few more days. I've come all this way and still haven't seen the Qiefeng Temple. I plan to take Xiaoguang for a look."
After that, Xiaoyun looked at Shinji again: "What about you? Didn't Brother Lei Si say that you and I, or Xiaozhi, should go to the Wisdom Lake to fight? What do you think?"
The two of them chatted with each other like friends, without any sense of restraint or strangeness.
Even Shinji himself didn't notice this change.
If it were his usual self, he would only talk about training Pokémon, and he would not care about other things at all.
At the end, Shinji shook his head and said firmly: "Forget it, I don't want to fight you now, let's wait until the league meeting."
Because Shinji knew that he couldn't beat the smiling guy in front of him, he decided to save the match.
But after the battle with Kamishiro, Shinji felt that he seemed to have grasped something, and he needed some time to verify it.
After saying that, Shinji said goodbye to Xiaoyun and silently followed Raiji who had just come out and left.
"As for that guy..."
On the way back, Shinji talked to himself as he walked.
He thought of Xiaozhi again, the hot-blooded idiot whose training philosophy was completely different from his own, and Shinji couldn't help but snorted coldly.
"That's not necessary."
--------------
The next morning, at the Pokémon Center in Cutting Edge City.
The sunlight shines into the room through the curtains, illuminating two delicate faces.
Xiaoguang and Xiaowang lay lazily on the bed, their loose pajamas swaying gently as their legs swayed from time to time, revealing rays of alluring holy light.
The two of them just started chatting because they were bored, and as for the topics girls chat about, everyone knows what they like.
It was normal that the two of them were discussing the techniques of the gorgeous competition enthusiastically at the beginning.
But the topic soon turned to clothing, and then to famous local delicacies, which was also good.
Finally...Xiao Wang suddenly said something.
"Have you ever slept with Xiaoyun?"
When Xiaoguang heard this question, he blinked and was stunned. His brain didn't react for a long time, and he finally uttered a word.
"what!"
"You...what are you talking about? We, how old are we now?"
Especially when replying, Xiaoguang's fair face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye. How...how did we suddenly get to this point.
"Oh, I mean just hugging each other, sharing a bed."
After saying that, Xiao Wang glanced at her with her beautiful eyes and said meaningfully: "What are you thinking about..."
Xiao Guang was a little embarrassed. He looked aside guiltily and muttered softly, "Ah..., actually, that's what I was thinking."
Faced with such fake and exaggerated acting, Xiao Wang was too lazy to expose it and returned to the point: "But looking at you like this, it means there is nothing."
Realizing that it was not what he thought, Xiaoguang's tone began to relax, swinging his legs in boredom: "I think this matter... is not urgent."
Perhaps for girls, helping their best friends to promote their relationship is a very happy thing.
They will use various methods to promote the relationship and bring both parties closer.
And when they see that their methods have successfully helped the young couple move forward, they feel a sense of satisfaction, and they secretly smile behind their backs.
It feels a bit like raising a cat...
So when the two of them talked about this, Xiao Wang immediately sat up from the bed, crossed his legs, and looked at Xiao Guang intently: "How can I not be anxious? You two have known each other since childhood, more than ten years ago, and you have been in love for such a long time. Isn't it normal to sleep together? Or do you two not have much intimate contact normally?"
He looked so anxious, as if the CP he had been pursuing for a long time didn't get to see the light of day in the end.
Xiao Guang was a little silly when asked, and couldn't help but answer: "Hug..."
"A kiss sometimes."
"No, sister, are you really not afraid of losing Xiaoyun?"
Xiao Wang finds it hard to believe. Are these two people in such pure love?
You've been traveling together for so long, and now you're still camping in separate tents. Or are you two just trying out a new kind of relationship?
Don’t think there’s anything wrong with what Xiaowang said. People in the Pokémon world generally mature earlier and have strong physical fitness.
It's like if a middle school student can travel alone, then a high school student can become a champion, so it's not too much for young couples to do something unspeakable.
However, Xiao Wang seems to have forgotten that he is also a single man who has never been in a relationship.
"Huh?" Xiao Guang tilted his head, looking a little confused: "That's not the case, is it? Will I lose Xiao Yun just because of this?"
She and Xiaoyun have lived together since childhood, and their emotional foundation is quite strong. They can be said to be pure childhood sweethearts.
Besides, she is not a blonde and this is not a movie, so how can she fall from the sky?
Xiao Wang began her brainwashing plan: "Think about it carefully. Your Xiaoyun is capable, pretty, and still young."
Xiao Guang seemed to have thought of something, his face suddenly turned red, and he stammered, "It should...it should not be small..."
Sometimes when I hug you, I can feel a little bit of it...
Xiao Wang's face was filled with black lines, and he emphasized: "I was talking about her age!"
"Oh oh oh." Xiaoguang suddenly realized.
"Look at those older single women out there. Young and capable women like Xiaoyun are so popular. Aren't you worried that they will force themselves on you?"
"Think about it, think about it carefully, think about it carefully."
After saying that, Xiao Wang patted Xiao Guang on the shoulder and said seriously.
At this moment, Xiao Wang was just like the military strategist who gave advice in the girls' dormitory. His confident look almost fooled Xiao Guang.
Sure enough, Xiaoguang was completely fooled by Xiaowang's words. She frowned and thought carefully about whether Xiaoyun had any abnormal behavior recently.
Don’t mention it, it actually reminded her of one!
Recently, she often saw Xiaoyun and Sirona making video calls, and the two were chatting very enthusiastically.
Shirona: Hot? .....You've never seen a work report, right?
The more he thought about it, the more something seemed wrong. Xiaoguang felt nervous and looked at Xiaowang anxiously, asking, "Then what should I do?"
Xiao Wang smiled mysteriously, leaned close to Xiao Guang's ear and whispered, "You do this..., then... this, and finally leave it to me."
After saying this, she showed a confident expression.
After Xiaoguang heard this, there was a hint of hesitation in his eyes, but he still nodded to show his agreement.
Then she took a deep breath and started to act according to Xiaowang's instructions.
----------
next door.
Xiaoyun and Rotom were reviewing Shinji's battle yesterday. As they were chatting, there was a knock on the door.
"Xiao Guang? What's the matter?"
Xiaoyun stood up, opened the door and saw Xiaoguang, who was dressed neatly.
At this time, Xiaoguang had a white scarf around his neck and was wearing a white down jacket with bright red lines decorating the collar and cuffs.
The down jacket is hip-length and is paired with black leggings and snow boots, making the overall look lively and fashionable.
Xiaoguang put his hands behind his back, stood on tiptoes, looked at Xiaoyun with a cute face and said, "Hehe~Xiaoyun, I heard from Xiaowang that there is a very famous snow mountain ice cream in Qiefeng City. Let's go eat it together!"
If an ordinary person is invited by a girl like this, hesitating for a second would be disrespectful to the girl.
However, Xiaoyun showed the inexplicable straight male attributes at this time.
He actually answered directly: "Why don't you let Xiao Wang go with you? Isn't she from Qifeng City?"
Xiaoguang was obviously surprised by this straight-man response.
Aren’t bad guys usually quite smart? She’s even put on makeup, so can’t he tell it’s such an obvious date?
But this didn’t bother the clever Xiao Guang. She rolled her eyes quickly and made up an excuse: “Well… Xiao Wang said there was a flood at her home and she had to go back to help, so she didn’t have time to accompany me.”
"Um, is there going to be a flood in this weather?"
Xiaoyun had a look of doubt on his face, and seemed unaware that the smile on Xiaoguang's face was gradually disappearing.
He looked like he was destined to be the straight man.
Seeing that the man looked unmoved, Xiaoguang took a deep breath and decided to use his ultimate move.
She pulled Xiaoyun's arm, almost put her lips on Xiaoyun's earlobe, and said in a coquettish tone: "Hey, are you going or not? I'm scared to be alone~"
Feeling the fragrant breath beside his ear and the slight touch on his arm even through the clothes, Xiaoyun suddenly felt his blood boiling.
"go!"
However, just after Xiaoyun left, the door of the next room suddenly opened, watching their gradually leaving backs.
"It's done!"
The wingmen Xiao Wang and Xie Mi smiled knowingly.
------------
The city in winter is covered with snow and the wind is cold.
On the busy street, the crowds were bustling. Xiaoguang and Xiaoyun interlocked their fingers with their left hand and held up a delicate snow mountain ice cream with their right hand.
She gently extended her pink tongue and licked it carefully, saying with a satisfied look on her face, "I'm so happy! This is really the most delicious ice cream I've ever eaten!"
That happy little expression would definitely make Sirona envious to death.
Hearing this, Xiaoyun couldn't help but mutter to herself in her heart: "No, I waited in line for two hours to buy this."
Having said that, Xiaoyun did not show any dissatisfaction on her face. After all, Xiaoguang liked her. He should just pamper his girlfriend.
To some extent, queuing for the girl you love is also a kind of romance.
My calves are just a little numb.
As if sensing Xiaoyun's inner turmoil, Xiaoguang smiled sweetly and handed the licked ice cream in his hand to Xiaoyun's lips like coaxing a child: "Okay, dear, I'll give you a taste too~ Open your mouth, ah..."
But Xiaoyun pretended to be nonchalant, pushed the ice cream back, and said with a smile: "You eat it, I won't use it."
In fact, Xiaoyun's behavior was not inconsiderate, it was purely a subconscious action of the boy. Because the girl likes it, the boy wants to give everything to his beloved girl, which is actually a proof of caring.
However, for girls, they obviously don't understand it that way.
Even the usually considerate Xiaoguang was not immune to this. She pouted her lips, stared at Xiaoyun with her beautiful blue eyes, and said coquettishly, "Huh, do you dislike me?"
"No, I didn't. Xiaoguang, you know me." Xiaoyun explained quickly.
Xiao Guang's beautiful eyes wrinkled and she asked, "Then why don't you eat, huh?"
There was a hint of dissatisfaction and grievance in her voice, as if she really thought Xiaoyun disliked the ice cream she had eaten.
Faced with Xiaoguang's questioning, Xiaoyun broke out in a sweat and his brain was spinning rapidly.
"I don't want to eat this."
He looked at the food in Xiaoguang's hand and suddenly an idea came to him. He smiled wickedly and whispered to Xiaoguang.
“I want to eat “imported” food!”
