Chapter 5 Chapter names are hard to come up with
Inaba is a very interesting rabbit.
Although the appearance is still young and cute, but in fact, the heart has been vicissitudes. She's probably gone through quite a long time.
At least, it's been a long time among terrestrial creatures. But at the same time, it also means that she is still very young compared to Feili, who is the people of the moon.
However, you can't underestimate the emperor because of this, her sleek way of life, and her attitude towards life are enough to make many big monsters ashamed.
At least compared with the simple Lingxian, she can already be described as cunning and cunning.
But because of this, Feili sometimes unconsciously wants to tease her. I want to see the real side of the emperor -- maybe it is this thought that makes the action flying.
However, it is precisely because there is a side that you don't want to be seen that there is a false shell. And his actions are tantamount to prying open the hard exterior and leaving the fragile interior exposed.
Isn't that a bad behavior?
Fei Li couldn't help but think of it self-deprecatingly.
It's a bad act, but it's ......
He's not going to do anything about it.
He must still be teasing Emperor Inaba like he used to. Needless to say, that's the man's style.
Although he understands his mistakes, he has no intention of repenting, because it is obviously more fun to do so now.
Fei Li is a man who is far from justice. Although he always saves others, that doesn't mean that he is an upright person...... Unfortunately, the vast majority of people fail to recognize this.
So in the future, he will also be happy to tease Emperor Inhata.
Thinking of the rabbit's expression, Fei Li couldn't help but chuckle.
「…… You're smiling so happily, Ah Fei."
――At this time, a voice like a heavenly voice sounded in Fei's ears.
The mature and gentle female voice sounds like a natural voice in Feili.
But...... Considering that he didn't return all night last night, this day is probably equivalent to a thunderbolt on a sunny day, or even more so.
"Uh......"
Looking at the woman who appeared in the corridor unconsciously, Fei Li only felt a little speechless for a while.
This is not because of how terrible the other party's expression is, in fact, the woman who is holding her cheek and looking at him can be said to have a gentle face.
It's just that...... Fei Li always felt that there were some unusual emotions in those light gray eyes.
It shouldn't be an illusion. His instincts, which he has formed through countless storms, rarely go wrong, but the more times like this, the more important it is to remain calm. There is no use in panicking.
"Happy?"
After a moment's reflection, he shrugged his shoulders freely.
"It's okay. I'm just teasing the emperor a little. Her reaction is always funny."
"Hmm...... Are you going to tease her again? It's like what Ah Fei would do. But there's one more thing I want to know."
The woman nodded noncommittally, and at the same time, she slowly approached Feili and gradually walked in front of him.
Here's the point! Hearing his mother's words, Fei Li suddenly lifted his spirits.
"You didn't come home all night yesterday...... Where have you been?"
…… What a sharp question. It's so straightforward that it doesn't give anyone any room for loopback.
But for Feili, this is not a difficult one. The swift straight punches are indeed sharp enough, but as long as you see the trajectory clearly, it is easy to dodge.
"Well, I'm going on a night tour."
"Night Tour?"
"It was a bright night last night...... So the idea of appreciating the night instantly arose."
His unashamed expression was convincing, and in a sense, he wasn't lying.
Although it is drinking with ghosts, tengu, and death...... But they did look at the bright moon, listen to the blowing breeze, and staggered under the flowers on the other side.
It can only be said that appreciating the night is an ancillary product of the original purpose, but it cannot be said that it is not a fact.
However, hearing Fei Li's calm words, Yonglin smiled meaningfully.
"Oh...... Enjoying the night? I'm not surprised. Ah Fei, although you are the best samurai, you also have the gift of romance to become a poet."
Yonglin's words should be praised...... However, Fei Li heard a little ridicule in it.
It was a mockery without any malice, like the eyes of a mother who sees through her child's lying...... But wait, that's the way it is.
"I don't think you're lying—but that must not be the whole story. Don't forget who you learned your rhetoric and debating from."
As a man's mother, Yonglin, who has the grace of nurturing him, is still his academic teacher, which is not a surprising thing.
However, Fei Li is not the kind of guy who is so simple that he can be seen through at a glance, although he hates to use intrigue and trickery, but his city government is also quite deep...... At this point, the mother and son can be said to be in the same line.
So...... What makes Bayi Yonglin see through the truth is probably not Feili's flaws in rhetoric or expression, but because of her instinctive intuition as a mother or a woman.
「…… I'm going to drink."
Seeing Yonglin's determined look, he didn't hesitate too much, and Feili told her the truth.
Maybe he will choose to hide some of the facts, but he will never lie to her. And it's not something that needs to be hidden.
However, Yonglin's words next surprised him greatly.
"So it's such a joy to drink with that Shinigami and Tengu...... So happy that you forgot to go home?"
"Y-What did you say?"
The two people who were accurately said seemed to be as if Yonglin himself was present, and this inexplicable situation was really beyond Feifei's expectations.
But he was quickly relieved.
Forgetting that the pharmacist's sense of smell is very sensitive, it is natural that he will have this result.
"Are you going to deny it? Hoodlum. You have the scent of the other side flower, and the smell of the tengu, and another unfamiliar smell, though I don't know who that guy is...... But it looks like you've rolled around in a big circle among the flowers."
At the end, Yonglin's tone was rarely tinged with a hint of sarcasm. For her, who has always had great indulgence in her son, this is already a rare gaffe.
After all, no matter what, Feili is no longer a toddler. As a child who grows up, it is inevitable that he will leave his mother one day. He is already fully responsible for his actions and does not need to be supervised by anyone.
…… This is a fact that Yonglin does not want to admit, but cannot avoid.
Because once admitting this matter is equivalent to declaring that her ownership of Feili is over, how can she accept it.
"Did I worry you?"
Yonglin's gaze, which was permeated with anxiety and worry, was completely seen by Fei Li...... But what exactly was she worried about?
Fei Li couldn't understand.
But Yonglin's expression also made him feel remorseful.
"If that's the case, I won't go out again at night."
"No, Ah Fei, it's none of your business."
Indeed, it's just that she's not decisive enough.
She can't achieve the ultimate possession, and she definitely can't let go freely, and she can only swing between the two ends, she will be so distressed, just because of love.
Falling in love with someone is such a happy and heavy thing, Yonglin has already experienced it.
But if she could, she only hoped that the heaviness on her body would never go away.
――——Looking at Yonglin, who suddenly returned to her former gentle expression, Feili was a little confused.
But......
"Ahhh
"What's wrong? Ah Fei."
「…… No, nothing."
It really wasn't anything, he just thought of it out of the blue.
Where was the drunken Wen thrown away after being carried away like garbage by Cuixiang?
…… It should be fine.
