Chapter 914: Dinner time for Aoi and Chaska
Chapter 914: Dinner time for Aoi and Chaska
After hearing what Shao Yun said, Chaska did not respond. He just silently raised his hands to cover his face, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
After a while, she began to complain to herself about her behavior.
"Oh~ How embarrassing... I just want to see my mom, why is she urging me to get married..."
"Sister Keya building a nest and hatching eggs, what does that have to do with me..."
Then, Chaska slowly put down his hands that were covering his face, his face flushed, and he looked at Shao Yun with a somewhat evasive look, and stammered:
"I...I really didn't mean that! I...I, I will never drink again next time!"
Her voice became smaller and smaller until it was almost inaudible.
Shao Yun looked at Chaska, who was looking for a hole to crawl into, and waved his hand, saying, "It's okay... Anyway, I don't take it seriously. I've seen similar situations in Liyue."
When Chaska heard this, he immediately became alert and asked, "Liyue? There are also velvet pterosaurs?"
Shao Yun shook his head and explained: "No, it's a talking bird."
When Chaska heard the word "talking bird", he thought it must be "parrot".
“Isn’t that a parrot?”
Shao Yun shook his head again and further explained: "It's not a parrot, it's a crane. An immortal from Liyue? But she probably doesn't have time to urge marriage now..."
Chaska was still slightly drunk and his mind was a little confused.
She blinked her eyes, looked at Shao Yun blankly, and asked, "Ah? What does this mean?"
Shao Yun looked at Chaska's confused expression, shook his head helplessly, pointed to the sky, and said softly:
"It's complicated to explain. I think it's getting late now and you've already met your Velvet Pterosaur mother. We should just leave now."
Chaska raised his head, followed Shao Yun's finger and looked up at the sky, muttering to himself: "Yes, it is indeed very late..."
Then, Chaska sighed and said guiltily, "Hey, I'm sorry for causing you trouble. I'm really not taking you to meet my parents."
"Ah... I won't drink again next time. You usually don't miss mom, so what happened today?"
Shao Yun looked at Chaska, showed a tolerant smile, waved his hand gently, and said:
"I understand. When people are drunk, they always act out of their minds, even doing things that are beyond common sense. I understand that."
……
While Shao Yun was speaking, Fontaine, Baisong Town.
Navia: A-choo!
Silver: Miss, is it cold? I'll go light the fireplace.
Myles: I'm going to make some hot cocoa.
Navia: Ah, thank you. Maybe I stayed too late yesterday to meet Clorinde and Lady Furninna in the suburbs to play tabletop theater...
……
At night, Huayu will.
At the door of Chaska's house, Kuike was pacing back and forth anxiously.
The reason is simple: it’s so late, why hasn’t Chaska returned home yet?
"What time is it? Why hasn't Chaska come home yet?"
Just as Kuike was about to go out to find Chaska, he suddenly heard a creaking sound of wooden boards.
She looked carefully and saw Chaska and Shao Yun walking towards her one after another.
Seeing Chaska return safely, Kuike finally felt relieved.
She walked quickly forward, an expression of relief on her face, but also mixed with a hint of complaint.
"You're finally back. If you hadn't come back, I would have gone out to look for you!"
When Chaska saw Kuike suddenly rushing towards him, he was immediately sobered up by the alcohol.
Did the smell of alcohol on me dissipate? Would Aoi be able to smell it?
"Ah, Aoi, you don't have to wait for me outside the house..."
Kuike didn't pay attention to what Chaska said at this time. Her attention was completely attracted by the strong smell of alcohol on Chaska.
Her nose twitched slightly, then she frowned tightly, sniffed the scent of Chaska carefully again, and asked in confusion:
"Chaska, why do you smell so drunk? Don't you usually not drink?"
Seeing that Kuike had seen through his drinking, Chaska's eyes wandered up and down, and finally fell on Shao Yun, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw, and hurriedly explained:
"I...I promised Mr. Shao Yun that I would treat him to a drink...it's normal for him to drink a little."
After hearing this, Kuike couldn't help but wonder what this had to do with your drinking.
"Then why do you want to drink? I don't think Mr. Shao Yun is the kind of person who would force others to drink with him."
When Chaska heard Kuike's complaints, he suddenly felt that this scene was so familiar.
"Why do I feel this sentence is so familiar?"
Shao Yun, who was standing beside her, saw this and quickly reminded her in a low voice: "Did you forget? During the Abyss War, in the House of Ennui, you said exactly the same thing to Mavica!"
After hearing Shao Yun's reminder, Chaska patted his head as if waking up from a dream, and then said seriously: "Oh, yes, how could I forget it!"
Aike looked at her sister and felt both angry and amused.
"Really, I'm at my wits' end... Never mind, just drink some wine, but I hope you won't tell me that you drank on an empty stomach."
Kuike had just said that casually, and didn't really think that Chaska would drink on an empty stomach.
Under normal circumstances, drinking alcohol must be accompanied by some side dishes.
However, what she never expected was that Chaska answered without hesitation, without reservation, and without any deception:
"Yes what's the matter?"
When Kuike heard that the two of them were really drinking on an empty stomach, she got so angry that she couldn't speak clearly.
"You, are...really drinking on an empty stomach? No, really, Mr. Shao Yun, why don't you try to persuade me..."
Shao Yun was stunned. How come I have a share? That green honey plum wine is just like that fruit juice. Does it need to be eaten with wine?
Then, Kuike felt that it was useless to blame Shao Yun and Chaska, so it would be better to let them go into the house and eat something.
If you get a stomach problem, it would be more trouble than it's worth.
So she waved at the two of them, indicating that they should come into the house.
"You two should come inside and have something to eat. The dinner I made hasn't been touched yet."
Upon hearing this, Shao Yun pointed at himself in confusion and asked, "Is there still a share for me?"
Kuike nodded, then pointed at Shao Yun and Chaska, and said seriously with the courage of a doctor, "Of course you have a share!"
"If you two drink on an empty stomach late at night and get a stomachache, I'll have to come and treat you! So hurry up and come in and eat something!"
Shao Yun looked at Kuike who was so decisive and courageous, then turned to Chaska beside him and whispered, "Your sister is quite courageous when she nags."
Chaska chuckled and replied, "Yeah, you'll get used to it. If Aoi suddenly stopped nagging me one day, I would actually feel a little uncomfortable."
Although Shao Yun and Chaska spoke in low voices, Kuike's ears were extremely sensitive and he still heard their conversation.
Kuike turned around and complained angrily, "You two stop whispering, I can hear it clearly! And you said you like my nagging, really!"
"Even if you try to provoke me, I won't shut up!"
Kuike didn't close her mouth, but Chaska quickly closed her mouth, without saying a word, and followed Kuike into the house.
……
At Chaska's house, Kuike and Chaska were chatting animatedly during the meal.
During the three days that Shao Yun rested in the Holy Fire Arena, after experiencing life and death, the relationship between Chaska and Kuike became more harmonious.
Compared to the two sisters who were chatting animatedly, Shao Yun was eating quietly alone.
No matter how you think about it, he can't even get a word in...
Chaska suddenly mentioned it and asked, "By the way, where is Dad?"
Kuiko took a bite of cornbread and answered, "He is in the wild with Alpa, looking for the lost Velvet Pterosaur."
"You also know that after the Abyss attacked the tribe, many of the Velvet Winged Dragons living in the tribe flew into the wild."
Chaska suddenly realized and said, "So that's how it is. I was wondering why I didn't see him when I was working today."
……
Shao Yun, who finished his meal first, put down his knife and fork, stood up, and said with a smile on his face, "Thank you for your hospitality. It's getting late. I'll leave first."
Aoi waved enthusiastically and said with a smile: "Goodbye, come to Huayu Club often when you have time, but please don't come to me as a patient. I hope you are healthy."
Chaska smiled sincerely and said goodbye, "I hope you can be reunited with your wife and children soon. I will return the clothes you lent me tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
Shao Yun nodded and said, "Okay, goodbye."
……
After walking out of Chaska's house, Shao Yun shook his head and counted on his fingers.
"Well, Chaska's invitation to drink is over. It's still early for Gu Ming to deal with it. Don't worry about it."
"So, now, all we have left is a tour guide mission for Mavica, and then we have to wait until the Abyss that invaded Nata is dealt with, and then we will go back to Mondstadt and kill Wendy."
"Finally, live a good life in Nata! Then I'll discuss it with my brother-in-law..."
"I wonder if Xitila can find a suitable place to open a ranch for me..."
……
Meanwhile, in the Misty Sea Islands.
Ying held her daughter "Xi" in her arms, sat by the campfire, humming a lullaby softly, coaxing the baby to sleep.
The little baby "Xi" was in Ying's arms, quietly closing his eyes.
The days of being kidnapped passed one by one. The baby grew a lot and began to see.
During the day today, she would look at Ying's face with her crystal blue eyes from time to time, and she was beginning to recognize people.
At this moment, Paimon looked at Ying who was coaxing the baby to sleep.
In order to let Ying take a break, she volunteered to extend her hand and said:
"Ying, go and rest for a while. I'll take the baby back to the tent to sleep."
Ying looked at the enthusiastic Paimeng, then looked down at the baby who was already sleeping peacefully in her arms. After hesitating for a moment, she said, "Thank you, Paimeng."
"But, with your small body, can you really hold the baby? Forget it, I'll just hold the baby myself."
Paimon still smiled and said with concern: "Oh, I just saw that you are working too hard, so I want to help you share the burden."
"I'll take the kids back to the tent to rest. You can also take a break."
Ying looked at Paimon, feeling her sincere concern, and finally nodded and said, "Okay then..."
Paimon happily took the baby, who was almost three quarters of his own size.
"Hey, this little guy isn't heavy at all. I can definitely carry him! Then I'll take him to rest first."
Ying looked at Paimon who was holding the baby with difficulty but pretending to be relaxed, and a smile from the bottom of her heart appeared on her face.
If Paimon hadn't been there to assist and accompany her during this period of time, she would have probably collapsed from exhaustion long ago.
"Thank you, Paimon, it's great to have you around."
Paimon smiled innocently and replied, "Hehe, you're welcome! We are a family!"
