The fifth king of the elves

Chapter 264. 264. Father and Daughter Who Can't Understand Each Other

"You don't like going back to Yangxin City, we can take a detour to get badges in nearby towns, it's not a big problem."

Luther suddenly realized something and quickly changed his words.

"But you always have to go back to your parents' house to have a look." Mai pursed her lips and chuckled, "Yangxin City is pretty good, the food is delicious, the surrounding scenery is nice, and the level of the trainers is also commendable. You can still practice more."

Luther was silent for a while, and said softly: "How bad is the relationship between you and your family?"

Straight to the point.

Mai's body trembled, but then she knew that she couldn't hide it, not to mention that she had exposed too much by accident after getting along for such a long time.

She wanted to hide it very much, but traveling with Luther all the way, subconsciously relying on Luther from time to time, made her always unconsciously throw out those secrets that belonged to her.

It seems that I have found someone who can bear with me, or finally found someone who can listen to my thoughts.

Every time she slipped her mouth, Mai always felt a lot more comfortable inside.

Mingming had already agreed that everyone could have their own secrets and keep them in their hearts without revealing them, but they also made up their minds not to reveal these things, which troubled Luther too.

But... I can't bear it.

Mai pinched Ibrahimovic's ears, looked at Luther, and suddenly became very relaxed.

"I don't have siblings, I'm an only daughter, so my father has always attached great importance to me. From childhood to adulthood, he always arranged everything in every detail until..."

"It wasn't until you ran away from home that you scared him so much that he started to let go."

Luther remembered what Mai had told him about her reckless departure. If luck hadn't been on her side, he probably wouldn't have been able to touch her.

"The thing he said to me most of the time he was growing up was, 'I'm doing this for your own good'."

"I was ignorant when I was young, but I always believed that my father would not lie to me. He is the one who loves me the most."

Mai's laughter was very dry: "However, he lied to me. He released all the first batch of elves I raised, saying that it was for the sake of my illness."

"The second batch of elves is not that I want to leave, he wants to do the same."

Luther didn't say anything, he knew that Mai just needed a listener now.

"Two years ago, I had been confirmed to have recovered from illness several times. I wanted to start my own travel with an illustration book, but he told me that I was not old enough to travel. I just studied hard by his side for a while and took over his position."

"And what he said the most during my illness was, let me start traveling as soon as you recover from the illness." Mai held the lawn tightly, "Since he didn't want me to go out from the beginning, don't give me so much expectation!"

"You probably don't know. Before I started this trip, I had a quarrel with him. What he said to me is still in my ears."

"It's impossible for you to become an excellent trainer, and you can't become a qualified breeder. The teachers who invited me back have told me so. Are you still determined?"

Mai showed such a numb smile for the first time, and said with a choked voice, "Is he my father?"

"Why does he have to make decisions for me and decide everything for me? As long as I want to do something I like, he will keep denying me!"

Ibrahimovic flustered into Mai's arms, trying to attract Mai's attention and stop getting angry.

The dull hippopotamus also quickly posted it, his usually dull and lifeless eyes were full of bewilderment.

Pachiris wagged his tail vigorously, hoping that Mai would tease him as usual.

Sun Coral even performed a good show of splashing herself with a water gun, trying her best to make Mai happy.

However, the box that Luther opened could no longer be closed.

This was the first time Luther saw such an angry and helpless Mai.

Luther really wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start.

Mai's father's love for Mai does appear to be too controlling, and he thinks this desire for control is a manifestation of loving Mai.

Mai's sickness since he was a child made him, as a father, choose to take care of everything in person. He is indeed a qualified father... It's a pity that Mai has gradually grown up.

Everyone who can think independently has his own judgment and the right to choose. Mai's father's love is beyond the bounds.

This scale has actually hurt Mai, and Mai can't bear the "love" method that seems to put a shackle on her body.

The first fight was to run away, Mai won, and Mai's father conceded.

However, Mai's father's admitting defeat was more like a plan to delay the attack. He did not realize that Mai had grown up, and was no longer the child who needed to be held in the palm of his hand, who was constantly sick and needed constant care.

Mai wants to leave, wants to go out, she wants to realize her original dream.

The holders of the illustrated book at the same time have already gone to various parts of the world, and started adventures with their elves.

Only Mai was dragged by illnesses one after another, and was always stuck at home and in the hospital.

The unclaimed illustration book of the Yangxin City Research Institute stimulates Mai to leave the city all the time.

Mai wanted to solve the problem through heart-to-heart talks, but the last conversation clearly made Mai fully understand that there is no possibility for father and daughter to understand each other.

"So I made a bet with him, if I can't get a breeder's license within a year, or choose to become a trainer, fail to collect eight badges, and have more than four core gym badges, I will go home obediently."

Mai curled her lips: "Even so, the talk is over."

Luther was curious about the conversation, and you didn't run away from home again, did you?
But Luther clearly remembered that his family even transferred the money to her, which is not like it.

"Fortunately, I was smart. At that time, I had a few elves with me. My father told me to go back to my room and study honestly. With the help of Boscodora and the others, I escaped from the room, smashed the outer wall of the courtyard, and beat up all the elves sent by my family to chase me, and ran out directly."

"The scene is spectacular. I have a lot of elves. When they saw me running away, they all wanted to follow. I asked them to help me block other people, so there was no swarm of bees chasing me."

Luther covered his forehead, it turned out that he didn't run away from home, it was a big fight.

Hearing Mai talk about this period of history, Sun Coral jumped even more happily.

She was the one who took the lead in tearing down the wall back then, it must be the first!

It's understandable, why she didn't have much money when she first met Mai, and she still had to eat her own food.

Mai, who just came out of the house, obviously didn't adapt to the change of status, and probably spent all the money she brought with her in a daze, and ended up meeting herself, who was just as miserable.

"Your family members are not looking for you?"

When Mai mentioned that she broke down the wall and ran away, she seemed to feel a lot more comfortable, and her tone calmed down.

"It's just a compromise. My father chose to agree with the bet I made with him that day, but he sent me messages with the same taste between the lines." Mai leaned back against the tree, a little tired.

"It's hard for me and him to understand. He can't change, and I can't change. We always quarrel when we meet. I can only say that time will never go back to my childhood."

"Yangxin City is a very good city, but unfortunately, my home is in Yangxin City."

"I just want him to know that I've really grown up, not a three-year-old kid, and can make my own decisions. But these, he doesn't seem to understand, and he never tries to understand."

Hippo and the others stuck beside the tired Mai, who smiled and reached out to caress them.

Luther's elves looked at Luther and then at Mai, feeling extremely anxious.

Hei Lujia sent the little fairy milk to the head of Jucaoye with his tail, exchanged glances with Qilulian and Shunzimian, and slowly stood up.

He staggered, and leaned directly on Luther, who was still considering his words and didn't know what to say.

Ibrahimovic bumped his head against the feet of the dumb hippo, and the dumb hippo hesitated for two seconds before falling back.

The two people whose upper body lost their center of gravity stuck together at once.

Hei Lujia stood up unsteadily, and subconsciously said, "I'm old and useless."

Thinking of it after speaking, Luther and Mai couldn't understand, flicked the grass seeds on their legs with their tails, bit the tail of Marylou who was watching the show, and took her away who wanted to lean up.

The dumb hippo scratched its head, glanced at its own feet, looked at its own tail, touched its head, and turned its back.
