Chapter 377 He and She in the Room
Chapter 377 He and She in the Room
After praising Satoshi and Hikari's show, Ayako then added, "However, in the latest episode, it seems that Hikari wasn't your partner, was she?"
"?!"
Xiao Guang's delicate body trembled.
She didn't expect that Ayako, who was just watching the show, would immediately recognize that the person performing with Satoshi wasn't her.
Even she herself couldn't tell the difference between her and that princess. Was it because she looked more lively and intelligent?
"Yes."
Faced with this question that Dawn had no idea how to answer, Ash answered without even thinking for a moment: "That is the princess from Katagoyaki Town. She was very interested in this program, and since Dawn had no interest in participating at all because of the Grand Festival, she gave up the opportunity to film this."
"Eh……"
Ayako glanced at Satoshi, then at Dawn, a hint of doubt in her eyes, but that doubt quickly turned into a teasing tone.
"Xiao Guang, Xiao Guang..."
"what happened?"
Hikari, who was already heartbroken, heard Ayako's call, but she was still listless and responded weakly, as if she had lost all her strength.
"Come here for a second~"
Xiao Guang: "?"
Hikaru was full of doubt, but he was just lured over by Ayako.
After passing a corner and confirming that Ash and Brock couldn't see or hear the commotion, Ayako leaned down with a worried expression and whispered in Hikari's ear, "Are you really that willing to give up such a good opportunity? You're letting someone else have it, especially someone who looks just like you?"
Ayako said this with a worried expression.
She originally thought that the time for her to discuss Xiaoguang's marriage and at least worry about her shouldn't come so soon, but now even if Ayako didn't want to get involved, she couldn't.
Although the girl who looked exactly like her daughter bothered her, Ayako also had a good impression of the princess. After all, the princess seemed to be smarter and more proper than her daughter, practically a supermodel!
In terms of temperament.
But Ayako definitely still prefers Hikaru more.
Moreover, she is very satisfied with Ash. He is young, considerate and caring, and so talented in Pokémon battles. Whether now or in the future, Ash is a very good candidate.
Ok.
The biggest problem is that Ash seems to have no interest in romance at all, not even a little bit of interest.
If Ash had even a little bit of understanding or thought about love, he should have been able to see how much Dawn liked him, right?
but.
Ayako turned around and thought about it.
A guy this charming shouldn't lack girls who like him, especially if he's really interested in dating...
Does my daughter really have a chance?
Thinking about her daughter's bizarre actions during the filming of this program, Ayako couldn't help but feel worried about her.
In a grand competition or something, it's okay to make a mistake once, it's normal! But opportunities to film a show like this are truly rare, once you miss them, they're gone forever.
Especially this time.
"Don't you have feelings for Xiaozhi? Is it really okay to give up this opportunity like this? Have you seen how close they were in this episode? That princess must also have some feelings for Xiaozhi, otherwise how could she accept such intimate behavior from a guy she's only known for a short time?"
"Waaah..."
Xiao Guang had finally recovered from the blow of this incident, but she never expected that she would be hit again by her mother at home.
Xiao Guang's world suddenly turned black, and he stood motionless as if petrified.
"Ugh."
Ayako sighed helplessly.
But you can't really blame Hikaru for that.
After all, based on Hikaru's past behavior at home, Ayako didn't think Hikaru would be someone who would fall in love easily.
in other words.
In some ways, Xiaoguang's emotional intelligence and behavior at home might rival Xiaozhi's.
In the past, when I watched midday TV dramas with her, Xiao Guang was always puzzled by the romance between the male and female protagonists in the dramas. He would always ask himself why he fell in love with a girl just because she was helped by him.
Such problems are endless.
They even go so far as to ask about your past relationships and marriage.
Did not expect ah.
Only a year had passed, and his innocent and ignorant daughter had already grown up.
That's truly gratifying.
If she hadn't put on such a bizarre show.
"Oh dear~ If this continues, I feel like in less than two years you'll see Ash hugging and even kissing other girls."
Ayako felt that to wake up Hikaru, she needed a strong medicine.
She decided to add this potent medicine herself.
Xiao Guang: "?!"
Hikari, who was already feeling down, finally couldn't bear the pain after hearing Ayako's heavy blow, which was a critical hit, and collapsed to the ground.
......
"You're back."
"What's wrong, Xiaoguang? Why do you look so pale?"
Upon seeing Ayako return with a smile on her face, Ash immediately noticed the strange look on Dawn's face.
He looked as if he had suffered a heavy blow; his face was pale, as if he had only been gone for three days.
He had no spirit at all, and wandered the world like a ghost.
"It's nothing, the child ate something wrong."
Ayako's smile remained dignified and elegant.
But she had already silently reached out from behind and pinched Xiao Guang's waist hard.
"!?"
Xiao Guang felt the pain, and only then did his wandering soul finally return to his body.
Once she realized she was back in the living room, she managed a weak smile.
"Ah... um, where were we? (whispering)"
Although Hikari had come to her senses, she still didn't know what Ayako and Satoshi had just talked about, so she could only ask in a low voice.
"what--"
Instead of answering Hikari's direct request for help, Ayako deliberately dragged out her words, "Huh? You said you wanted to take Satoshi to see your room—?"
Xiao Guang: "?!"
No!
I don't!
The answer stuck in Xiao Guang's throat, unable to escape, because his mother had somehow walked up to Xiao Zhi, helped him up, then nudged him from behind and waved to them: "Then you can go play by yourselves~ Go wherever you want~ We can plan the Futaba Festival today, you can enjoy the festival tomorrow!"
Ash: "???"
Let alone Xiao Guang.
Even Ash didn't realize what Ayako was doing. By the time he came to his senses, he and Dawn had already been pushed into the hallway by Ayako. All they had to do was walk up the stairs to reach Dawn's room on the second floor.
Even Pikachu, which had been perched on her shoulder, was pulled into Ayako's arms and taken back by her shoving.
"What on earth is going on...?"
Ash stood downstairs and looked at Dawn, expressing his doubts.
"I do not know."
Xiao Guang also looked bewildered.
I have absolutely no idea what Ayako's purpose in doing this is—
Ok?
and many more!
Something is wrong!
This scene seems somewhat familiar?
At this moment, Xiao Guang finally recalled a scene from a TV series he watched with Cai Zi. The scene involved the female lead taking the male lead to her room, and in that environment, the usually icy male lead felt embarrassed, which led to a warming of their relationship.
picture!
very similar!
That time is just like this moment!
Xiao Guang, who had completely given up hope, became lively again.
Perhaps her turning point will come when she takes Xiaozhi on a tour of the room this time.
Thank you, mom!
"Let's go! Let's go up and take a look first!"
"Huh? Hmm..."
Just a second ago, Xiao Guang looked confused, even lost and dejected, but now she's back to her usual lively self. Isn't the difference between then and now a bit too much?
Could it be that he or she ate something bad?
But Xiao Guang's meals are exactly the same as theirs.
!
Did Xiaoguang secretly eat something delicious all by himself?!
Xiao Zhi thought to himself with certainty.
......
Soon, urged by Hikari, Satoshi climbed the stairs and arrived at the second floor, where Hikari's room was located near the stairs.
When they first arrived in the Sinnoh region and stayed here, Ash also stayed in a guest room on the second floor, but he never went into Dawn's room.
This must be my first time since coming to Sinnoh, right?
Xiao Zhi wondered to himself.
"This is it."
Xiao Guang arrived at the door, gently pushed it open, and stepped aside to let Xiao Zhi go in first.
"..."
how to say.
Xiao Zhi didn't know what to say.
Very tidy?
The first word that came to Xiaozhi's mind was this.
Xiao Guang's room was somewhat different from the girl's room he had in mind. It contained very few things; there was only a large bed, a wardrobe, and a carpet on the floor.
There are also some other small miscellaneous items, such as a little nest on the floor that looks like a Pokémon's sleeping area.
And there's that coat rack by the door.
However, there were no Pokémon lying on the cotton nest, and no clothes were hanging on the clothes rack.
The entire room exudes simplicity, comfort, and spaciousness.
So it seems that Dawn usually only likes to buy different clothes for Pokémon Contests, and even then, she only buys them for her Pokémon. As for other aspects of her life, Dawn's expenses are indeed not much.
Unlike Xiaoyao.
Xiaoyao spends almost all of her money on food.
In terms of food alone, she can eat as much as several people.
Although those people certainly wouldn't be several versions of myself.
"W-How is it?"
After Ash went inside to visit, Dawn just followed behind him blankly.
This should logically be her home turf, but when Ash arrived, her room suddenly felt unfamiliar to her. Even Dawn herself began to question the little house she had lived in for years.
There's so little stuff here!
"Hmm, it feels very comfortable."
Xiao Zhi said sincerely.
Compared to Xiaoguang's room, her own room seemed much messier.
If it weren't for Hanako taking care of things for him every day, Ash's room would turn into a "nest" that even Growlithe wouldn't want to live in after a few days.
Xiao Zhi still saved some face for himself.
"It feels so good..."
Xiao Guang's face turned red again in an instant.
I don't know what scene came to mind, but even the top of my head started to steam faintly, and I felt as if I had turned into a steam engine.
"What a wonderful view!"
However, Ash's exclamation pulled Dawn out of her reverie the next second.
Ash simply commented that Dawn's room was very comfortable, but he seemed to love the view from the window so much that he couldn't help but shout it out.
It makes you look like an idiot.
Xiao Guang sighed softly to himself.
Of course, the "idiot" Hikari was referring to in her mind wasn't Ash, but herself.
It turns out that what they say on TV is all a lie.
My initial thought was indeed correct.
How could a male lead who initially had no feelings for the female lead suddenly develop feelings for her just because he entered her room?
This is ridiculous.
Ayako's explanation to her at the time was, "You're still young. You'll understand when you have someone you like in the future."
But she still can't understand it.
Hikari stared blankly at Ash's retreating figure.
Although Ash's heart was truly unmoved, when Dawn came to Ash's side, tilted her head, and quietly observed the smile on Ash's face as he saw the beautiful scenery, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly as well.
Forget it.
This is pretty good too.
At least Ash seemed quite happy.
As Xiao Guang thought this with a sense of relief, the distracting thoughts in his mind slowly began to fade away, and he suddenly appeared much more generous.
She walked naturally to Ash's side, and Ash, understanding perfectly, made room for Dawn.
The two stood shoulder to shoulder, gazing at the natural beauty of the town and the bustling atmosphere of people preparing for the festival.
Ash turned to look at Dawn, and when he saw Dawn resting her chin on her hand with a serene smile, immersed in the beautiful scenery of her hometown, Ash was slightly stunned for a moment.
Even he himself didn't realize it.
A gentle breeze slipped between the two, causing their hair to sway in the wind. They were so close that Xiao Guang's flowing hair would occasionally fall onto Xiao Zhi's shoulder and brush against his face.
Time passes quietly.
