Chapter 60: The Beauty of Adulthood

  After Roux's resurrection, she spent her days accompanying King Nicholas and the three Nasu siblings.

  Watching them reunite in harmony, Min Xi was also infected, with a smile in his eyes, but he didn't say anything.

  "Maybe this is the best outcome!" I saw that they could finally reunite as a family, and I truly felt happy for them. I don't know how much longer it will take before I can return to the real world.

  I got their address and decided to visit the first brave warrior of Tenshi no Shi, Hakuren. However, when I arrived, it was just an old broken house.

  "Has he gone on a long journey?" I looked at the house full of spider webs and thought that no matter how you looked at it, this didn't seem like a place where people lived. The only reasonable explanation was that the First Brave Bai Mie had probably gone traveling.

  "It seems so!" Min Xi, who followed behind, replied carelessly.

  "Depressed, how did this king do it, not even knowing that the first brave warrior left..." I felt extremely disheartened and kicked a stone at my feet. The task that was about to be completed suddenly changed, making the good mood I originally had drop to zero in an instant.

  "It's just a nominal hero, not some kind of vassal or anything, it's normal that he doesn't know!" Min Xi was able to analyze objectively, but because the current Lu Lu is almost always by the side of the king and his sons, so when he has nothing better to do, he follows me over.

  Actually, I suddenly feel that Min Xi is quite pitiful. Although Rourou is his adoptive mother, after reuniting with her biological son, she seems to not love him as much anymore. I don't know if this is temporary or not, but it's inevitable that Rourou will live with the king from now on.

  "Don't you feel wronged?" I couldn't help but ask the doubts in my heart. After all, Min Xi specially came to accompany me, and I was still a little grateful to him. After all, with this clever person around, if I had any questions or concerns in the future, I could also go ask for his advice.

  "Resentful?" Min Xi looked at me, raised an eyebrow and said nonchalantly: "I've always known that Lu Lu isn't my mother, so I've always been very stubborn and never called her mom. Besides, I'm all grown up now. Rather than worrying about whether my foster mother was snatched away or not, it's better to think about finding a wife to spend the rest of my life with, that's more practical!"

  Mian Xi has already understood, I also nodded in agreement and said: "Right... you can understand, that's the best thing!"

  "It's a pity that Bai Mian is not here, why don't we go on a date instead? Don't forget our promise." Min Xi, in high spirits, stretched out his hand to poke my head, fortunately I reacted quickly and dodged it, countering with a fierce stare.

  "I haven't forgotten our promise, so don't you dare lay a hand on me." I said with a firm tone and righteous words. I felt like I had instantly transformed into a tomboy, sigh... was it because I'd been single for too long? I felt like the elegance of a lady was slowly disappearing from my body.

  "You're too sensitive, it's not good!" Min Xi shook her head and gazed into the distance, suggesting: "Today is sunny, why don't we go out to admire the flowers?"

  "Alright!" I could only helplessly nod my head, feeling annoyed and unsure whether it was better to stay here and wait for the first brave warrior Bai Mo or go to the next stop and pick up another handsome guy. Or, look for other handsome guys around here?

  Walking side by side with Min Xi, I started thinking about my future plans and didn't pay attention to chatting with him, so the atmosphere seemed particularly quiet. Feeling that my hand was originally lightly swaying, it was tightly grasped by Min Xi, I felt both shy and angry as I glared at him.

  "I really don't know how you used to flirt with your man in the past? Can't even take this kind of action!" Min Xi asked me with a playful face.

  When asked by Ming Xi, I recalled some scenes. Zhan Zhonglan and I were like ordinary couples, we would kiss and hug each other, but our kissing method was always very ordinary, a light peck, or to be precise, it was just the touching of lips.

  Wasn't Zhan Zhonglan ever fond of himself? I couldn't help but feel puzzled...

  If a guy really won't take the initiative for you, does he still like you? However, Zhan Zhonglan is indeed very reserved. If he had acted like a typical playboy from the start, I would have rejected him quickly and wouldn't have agreed to date him.

  But is he really as dull as I imagined? In the end, he still had an affair with another woman! It turns out that he wasn't dull, but rather secretly flirtatious, only he never showed it to me!

  Just thinking about it makes me feel inexplicably heavy in my chest.

  "Are you displeased and want to leave immediately in anger?" Min Xi asked, guessing on her own.

  "Do you know? In our world, if someone becomes single again, it's something to be celebrated... I don't want to be gloomy just because of that trashy guy from the past. And besides, although Mian Xi looks really flirtatious and naughty on the surface, but if he really wanted to do something, he would have done it already, there's no need for him to waste so many words with me!"

  "What do you want to do?" Min Xi asked me.

  "Take a good walk and have a good meal!" I replied neatly.

  "Sure enough, just like Xiao Tuo, he's a complete and utter foodie!"

  Although Min Xi said it was a joke, his heart began to ache when he mentioned Xiong Xiaotu.

  I really miss him, I don't know if he's doing well or not. Unfortunately, there is no phone here, even if there was... I thought of wireless summoning Min Xi, maybe I can wirelessly summon him, but...

  He is here, the only person I want to see happy, so I don't dare to do it.

  Even if I can be willful and let him accompany me willingly, but should I really do that?

  "Actually, your feelings for Xiao Tuo are deeper than mine. But if that's the case, why didn't you bring him back? Can't you summon back a handsome man you've collected?" Min Xi asked me with a puzzled expression, her eyes gleaming with complexity.

  Min Xi's words were like a sharp needle piercing through my soul, making me feel utterly ashamed.

  I looked into his puzzled eyes and said seriously, "Because to me, he's important, worth caring about, my partner. I hope he can be happy, but if he accompanies me on this mission, he'll only suffer!"

  "It's just you who thinks that way, or maybe he doesn't think that way at all." Min Xi shook her head and said: "Sometimes I really can't understand you women, you obviously want it very much, but you have to pretend to be willing to let go, however, in your heart you actually care about it to death!"

  Right? Or is it really as Min Xi said.

  But can't he understand this kind of desire for each other's feelings?

  "Just like you with Ruru, although she's reunited with her family, she can't love you as much as before, but you still want to see her happy."

  "Damn it! Obviously we're rivals, if you don't want to find him, he'll naturally fall into my arms!"

  I rolled my eyes at Min Xi and said, "You think there are so many good-looking guys out there, do you think I'd fall for a philanderer like you?"

  "Who are you?"

  A somewhat rough male voice sounded, I looked up and saw a man wrapped tightly all over his body, like a mummy.

  Who is this person, anyway? However, looking at his spirited eyes, he shouldn't be a pampered rich kid or the king's relative. Or could it be... the First Brave I've been waiting for, Bai Mian?

  Before I could ask about the situation, this sturdy man suddenly shook his hands and the straps on his hands instantly lengthened, like a nimble snake, attacking me and Min Xi.

  It seems like we're going to have a fierce fight!
