After Boqi moved into my closet, the quiet life is gone forever

"Unfortunately, yes."

"What about Miss Philen? If you dare to say it's just for fun, I'll beat you up. And when we meet, I'll report you to Miss Yukinoshita!"

The gentle Hongxia immediately thought of how Chaoyang would treat Feilun, the person she was jealous of just now.

"I've already told Philen, but she seems to need more time to accept it. But I promised her that no matter what, I will definitely find her when the time comes. Even if I die, I will see her before then."

191. Goodbye means see you next time and, Hongxia, you smell so good.

"Why did you suddenly decide to break up...did I do something wrong?"

Hugh Turk woke up early in the morning after a long sleep and still couldn't believe the news.

Fulilian accepted it calmly. After all, separation was something she had been experiencing in her life.

Philen was listless... and didn't return to his room until very late.

"This has nothing to do with you, Shuttark. We just suddenly got information about the companion we've been looking for, so we're turning back to the capital. ... I'm relieved to have a reliable warrior like you on this team. Just enjoy this journey."

"If you had told me earlier, I would have bought you a gift yesterday."

Hugh Tark rubbed his hair, looking distressed.

"Haha, I accept your kindness. Or you can buy it for me next time we meet."

"Xiutark, come with me to buy some bread for Chaoyang and the others to eat on the way."

Fulilian looked at Philen next to her, and without any warning, pulled Xutalk and walked somewhere else.

"Phelan...I will see you again...I promise."

"Well... I remember, Miss Hongxia... I'm sorry..."

"It's ok."

Hong Xia smiled and scratched her cheek embarrassedly, then continued.

"Actually, I'm in the same position as you. It'll be awkward for my former companions to meet up and find out about Chaoyang and I, haha... so I can't blame you. Don't worry, if Chaoyang forgets you, we'll punish him severely."

Philen lowered his head and gently stroked the ring on his ring finger.

Hongxia also noticed it.

"The ring...it suits you very well. Don't lose it. You should be the first one to get it."

"Is that so? Hurry while the weather's nice, find your companions, and come back to see me... If Lady Fulilian takes her time traveling, you'll definitely catch up in no time. When everything's over... it'll be my turn to find you... Although I want to be with Lady Fulilian for the rest of my life, I don't want her to see me die, so I'll leave her with the best memories."

"Is that so? That's good. I will support whatever Philen decides."

A warm smile appeared on Chaoyang's lips, and he stretched out his hand to Philen's cheek, which felt a little chubby like baby fat.

He placed his hand gently on her cheek, preventing her from looking away out of shyness.

At this moment, Philen was trying hard to suppress the urge to cry.

[Such warm fingertips. This is why I... and Miss Hongxia fell in love with him.]

As if he had absorbed all of Philen's energy, Chaoyang put down his hand with a smile.

"I'll invite you to another world when the time comes. Worry well before that, Philen. Tell Fulilian to save the bread for the journey. I've already told the lords over there about your identities, and I'm sure you'll be escorted out soon. If nothing goes wrong, we'll meet again in the northern kingdoms... Hongxia, let's go."

As Chaoyang took a step back, Feilun rushed over almost without hesitation. This hug seemed to contain too many unspoken words and inexpressible emotions. Feilun's body pressed tightly against Chaoyang, as if wanting to pass on all the warmth and reluctance to leave him.

After a long time, Philen slowly let go of his hand and handed Chaoyang a note.

"This is the address of Mr. Haita's grave... If you're going to the Royal Capital, could you please stop by the Holy City and buy a bottle of wine to pay your respects? If possible... please tell me you're Fellen's husband and that I'm accompanying Lady Flillian on her journey to Heaven."

Chaoyang solemnly took it, folded it and put it in his inner chest pocket.

"I've got that in mind. I'll report it carefully. Don't worry, Philen."

"Um……"

Feilun turned and bowed to Hongxia

"I'll leave Chaoyang in your care..."

"Ms. Feilun is so cunning. You are the first one to let Chaoyang meet his parents. There is no way. You really can't beat a genius?"

Hong Xia pressed her temples as if she had a headache and sighed.

"But... in that other world, I'm his captain, and he's my subordinate~~ In that respect, I win."

Hong Xia chuckled.

"I enjoyed this trip, Miss Phelan. I look forward to seeing you next time. Goodbye."

"See you."

Just like that, Chaoyang and Hongxia turned around and returned to their previous path.

But this time, a gentle gaze was watching them from behind.

……

"咻" "咻"

A figure was moving back and forth on the road. Even a horse could not match its speed.

"There's a river over there in Chaoyang. Let's take a break and have lunch by the river."

On the back of the tall figure, there was a petite body. The two of them were naturally Chaoyang Hongxia who had separated from Fulilian and returned the same way.

With the rapid movement of the morning sun, they covered the distance that had previously taken two days in just half a day. Excluding stops and detours, they could reach the capital in a few days.

"Sure enough, the magician's costume is not very comfortable. Let's go to the next city and find a custom tailor to make a school uniform~~"

"Why not make some clothes for the band's finale? I haven't seen you in them in ages and I really miss them. That long-sleeved sports jersey of yours has the hem really long, making it look like you're not wearing anything underneath. I quite like it."

"Huh? You actually watched me get dressed like that? Wow... I suddenly feel so disgusted."

"Well, I'm just expressing my true feelings. ...I'm going to go catch a couple of fish."

"You run away as soon as you encounter an unfavorable topic! Really."

After a while

Hongxia used magic to make a fire, and Chaoyang successfully caught two fish with his bare hands and gave them to Hongxia to deal with.

Although there is not much seasoning, the fish from another world tastes unique.

After eating, the two of them sat on the rocks by the river, listening to the sound of the stream and closing their eyes.

"Hmm...ah, I remembered something. I have something to give you."

"Um?"

Hong Xia, who was dozing with her eyes closed, half opened her eyes after hearing Chaoyang's voice. She saw that he had slowly taken out an exquisite little box from his pocket. The box was opened, revealing an exquisite ring inside.

Before Hongxia could react, Chaoyang, who was half-kneeling, held Hongxia's hand and slowly slid the ring onto her ring finger.

"..."

"...You're not going to say anything?"

Chaoyang looked at Hongxia who didn't react, and had a completely different feeling from Philen.

Hongxia seemed to have just reacted and her eyes widened.

"I'm just stunned. I didn't expect I could be so casual with my ring the first time I wore it. ...By the way, this style...isn't it exactly the same as the one on Miss Phelan's finger? You really don't fear divine retribution, do you?"

It was rare for Hong Xia to utter these words in a cold voice...but she didn't take off the ring and throw it away after all.

"Uh... the pattern on this is called Mirror Lotus, and the flower language is eternal love."

"Is your Eternal Love sold in bulk? ... You didn't buy 5,6 or at once, did you?!"

"No, how could that be! I only bought two!"

Chaoyang also felt that it was a bit absurd to give the same ring to two girls, so he took it out after leaving.

"Really... This should be the most romantic moment for a girl, but what you did to her is probably one of the top three most infuriating memories in my life."

"Uh... I'll give you a gold one when I get back. Forget about the diamonds, that's just a waste of money."

Hong Xia shook her head slightly

"...No need... Let's just take this. After all, it's a limited edition for another world. It might be unique in that world when I return. If Miss Fellen doesn't come..."

She touched the ring on her hand, which looked even more dazzling under her fingertips.

"Okay, you've had enough rest, haven't you? We have to get to the next city before dark! I don't want to sleep outdoors with you. Without Miss Fulilian and the others, who knows what you'll do out in the wild!"

Hong Xia said while lying on Chaoyang's back

"Excuse me! I won't do anything without your permission!"

……

Hotel

"Sorry~ There have been so many adventurers at the inn lately that there's only one room left. ...You two..."

"wanted!"

Faced with the good news, Chaoyang immediately paid and booked a room.

When going to bed at night.

Hongxia began to set three rules.

"Don't do weird things!"

"Can I hold you while sleeping..."

"Hmm---"

Hongxia fell into distress, and finally nodded painfully.

"Yes, you can...just hug me!"

"..."

Chaoyang began to inhale the scent of Hongxia.

It is obvious that Chaoyang is very good at salami slicing tactics.

Before I knew it, I began to suck up the sweet and fragrant juice, and my lips parted for a long time.

"I'll just rub it!"

In the gentle rainbow summer, under the appeasement policy, Chaoyang made a lot of money.

In the end, Hongxia's face turned red with shame, and Chaoyang tore up the non-war agreement.

Gradually, the sound of flesh colliding with silk began to fill the hotel room.

Hong Xia Fang was confused, but she felt an indescribable sense of happiness.

It was not until dawn that they sounded the retreat and consolidated their victory.

192. Confession and Rainbow Summer! Red Bean Paste Gomenasa!!!

Chaoyang, it has been five days since Hongxia left Fulilian's team.

In a simple civilian cemetery in the Holy City

At this moment, the two of them are paying tribute in front of a tombstone.

"Mr. Haita, although I've never met you, I can be considered your son-in-law... This bottle of wine is my filial gift to you."

"bump."

Pulling the cork from the bottle, the wine poured out and flowed onto the tombstone.

Hong Xia next to him lowered her head, clasped her hands together and prayed quietly.
