A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 427 Messenger
After all, instead of letting the bomb explode on the day of the Flower Dance Festival, it is better to detonate it in advance. In this way, I will have time to put out the fire.

"Emily? How could she make a dress for you? It's a very troublesome thing. How much did it cost you?" Abigail was not surprised to hear this. After all, as a native of Pelican Town, she had known about Emily's handicraft skills and her love of sewing clothes for a long time. In other words, no one in Pelican Town was unaware of the fact that Emily had profound attainments in this area.

"Well, it didn't cost any money. She mentioned it on her own initiative. And there are some things involved. I want to explain it to you clearly."

Leon sighed, and explained clearly his agreement with Emily and the matter of learning dance with Emily.

Abigail's expression after hearing all this was very interesting. There was anger, surprise, regret, realization, relief, and resentment. So many emotions gathered on Abigail's face and changed intertwinedly, which made Leon a little scared.

After a long silence, Abigail slowly spoke: "So, what do you think? Now."

"I'm not sure, but you know, I'm a man of my word." Leon said tentatively.

"Oh, that's it. You wear the dress Emily customized for you and dance the first dance with her." Abigail said expressionlessly.

It sounded like a very generous decision, but Leon was no fool. He knew the murderous intention hidden in Abigail's words, so he immediately changed his words and said, "Actually, I can also break the appointment."

"Breaking an appointment is not a good thing. If it happens the first time, there will be a second time. If I am the one who is stood up for the second time, wouldn't I be asking for trouble?" Abigail rolled her eyes and complained.

"But won't you be jealous or angry? After all, your boyfriend's first dance at the Flower Dance Festival wasn't with you." Leon looked at Abigail's expression and was a little unsure of what Abigail was thinking.

"Of course I'm jealous, but this has already happened, and it was before I confessed my feelings. Technically speaking, you were still single when you agreed, so even if I'm jealous, it can't change this fact."

As Abigail said this, she pulled Leon to sit on the head of the bed and leaned on Leon's chest.

"And it's just one dance. I don't want you to think I'm possessive. A dance only lasts five minutes at most, but there are countless five-minute dances throughout the Flower Dance Festival. So if it's just a short period of endurance, it's not a problem. But you have to make sure the rest of the time belongs to me."

"Thank you for your understanding." Hearing Abigail's thoughtful words, Leon was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes.

"You're welcome." Abigail rolled her eyes and said sarcastically, "Besides, you should be very happy right now. You can dance with two girls at the Flower Dance Festival, and in front of your girlfriend. This must be very exciting, right?"

"That's all." Leon replied with a smirk, "The truly exciting thing is something else. I just don't know if you're willing to witness it with me?"

"Bah, forget it." Abigail spat at him with resentment and rejected Leon's suggestion without any hesitation. She had already seen through Leon's little thoughts.

Lyon was not disappointed, but just hugged Abigail quietly. His previous words were just to test Abigail's emotions. Now that he found that Abigail was really considering Lyon's situation from his own perspective instead of just speaking angrily, Lyon felt a lot more relaxed.

Looking down at Abigail's pretty face, Leon felt extremely lucky at the moment. Who would have thought that such a considerate girl was actually so careless before? This contrast made Leon couldn't help but peck her cheek.

"Should I wear this dress on the Flower Dance Festival?"

The sneak attack was successful, and before Abigail rolled her eyes, Leon spoke.

"Of course I have to wear it. I have to wear it." Abigail was very firm in her attitude towards this issue.

"No problem, I'll talk to Emily later, so don't bother doing it." Leon naturally wouldn't object to Abigail's request. After all, Abigail had already given in, and now it was his turn to show his attitude. "Yeah." Hearing this, Abigail smiled brightly, and then continued to lean on Leon's chest, enjoying the comfort of the moment.

After a long time, Abigail reluctantly left Leon’s arms: “I should go back and rest early, and you too.”

"Shall I take you home?" Leon suggested.

"No, I have to go back and get rid of the smell. It would be very troublesome if Mom smelled your scent on me. Last time you sent me home, Mom said I had a special smell that didn't belong to me and asked if I was close to you. I evaded the question by saying that I was practicing fighting techniques with you. If she smells it again, it will be difficult to explain."

Abigail shook her head and then complained.

"I've never seen you wear perfume, so why do you always have this special and obvious scent around you? If I wasn't sure you were no good, I would have thought you were gay."

"That's called masculinity." Leon replied to Abigail speechlessly, then stood up and sent Abigail out of the farm.

After watching Abigail's receding figure until she completely disappeared into the night, Leon turned around and returned to the cabin.

After taking off the tuxedo and hanging it on a simple hanger, Leon immediately took a shower and changed into ordinary clothes. Only then did he feel a lot more comfortable.

Although the fabric and craftsmanship of the gift set were excellent, it was still somewhat restrictive when worn and was far less comfortable than ordinary clothes. If Abigail hadn't liked it, Leon would have taken it off after trying it on.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

Just when Lyon was washing clothes, Dahuang's barking suddenly sounded not far away. Lyon stood up and looked in the direction of Dahuang's barking. He found that at the entrance of the farm, a human-shaped black shadow was completely blended into the night, and only the general outline could be seen standing next to the dog house.

This strange scene made Leon take out the Galaxy Watermelon Knife and slowly walk towards the location of the black shadow.

Before he had taken two steps, the black shadow suddenly disappeared. When it reappeared, it was already in front of Leon. Its face was still unclear. It was a black mass, even more abstract than Krobus's appearance. Even the facial features could not be seen. One could only barely make out that it was a humanoid creature, but he could not tell what it looked like specifically.

"Mr. Lyon, is that so?"

Just as Leon was about to make a move, a childish female voice that was completely inconsistent with her image suddenly came from the shadows, causing Leon to freeze in his knife-drawing action.

"It's me." Since this unknown thing knew his name and addressed him respectfully, it was obviously not coming with bad intentions, but Leon still did not let down his guard.

"Please accept this letter." The black shadow said, and a tentacle condensed from black mist extended from its body. At the front of the tentacle, a letter was wrapped on the tentacle.

"Whose letter is it?" Seeing this, Leon did not rush to take the letter, but asked.

"Mr. Qi."
