PDLP Chapter 234 She Misses You So Much in March
Chapter 234 She Misses You So Much in March
"calm?"
Where no one else could see, Firefly grinned and smiled.
"How can I stay calm?! That woman used some kind of trick, and Ah Qiong is completely bewitched, oblivious to his family and utterly infatuated!"
Don't act impulsively! Impulsiveness is the devil! Elio said that if you don't restrain yourself now, it will be even more troublesome later!
"How much worse could things get? Could it get any worse than this!"
"Auntie, are you alright?"
Anna noticed that Sora got angry when she refused Kaffa's request to break up with Raiden Mei.
Although her expression was well concealed, and the colored contact lenses made it impossible to detect any change, she still looked like a young and elegant mother—but her body was not as good at disguising itself as her face. The teacup she was tightly holding and her body trembling slightly with anger all proved that this woman was very angry.
"Qiong, say something!"
Anna gestured for Sora to quickly comfort "Kafka": Everyone says that there is no one better than a mother in the world. Putting everything else aside, Sora is now talking back to her mother for the sake of a girlfriend who is not accepted. This is a serious mistake.
However, "Kafka" seemed to be stunned by her anger at this moment, and paused for a long time.
……
"Okay, okay, I know how you feel. I'm angry too! They told me he found a replacement for me... but acting rashly now might make him resent Kaffa and us. Eriol's prophecy was right; he must have his reasons!"
Silver Wolf's voice, though tinged with anxiety, warned that if Firefly couldn't hold back, things would get complicated: Elio had said that the worst-case scenario was that they would be trapped on Earth in this timeline for nearly ten years without any contact with the outside world, and any attempt to damage the planet or leave would be ruthlessly suppressed by some being—perhaps a powerful local force? But why would they do that?
Eriol didn't say, and Silver Wolf didn't know either.
"So we're just going to do nothing? Just watch Ah Qiong get taken away by her?"
Silver Wolf felt that Firefly was very wronged. If she were any more delicate and he hadn't stopped her, she probably would have run off to a secluded place and cried her heart out, just like some young girls with red eyes.
【Of course not, of course not! You agree first, and we'll hold our positions for now, sneak in and monitor him! We'll see how he plans to handle things; if things don't go well, we can take action later!】
……
"Okay, then let's do as you say."
"Thank you, Mom!"
Kaffa's lips curled up, but a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes that went unnoticed by anyone.
"But have you thought about what to do with the fireflies?"
Mentioning Firefly, "Kafka" gently stood up, arms crossed, emanating a chilling aura. Sora, who had initially intended to stand up and hug her mother, was affected by this aura, and unconsciously took a step back after rising...
"Qiong, who is Liuying?"
As the brain raced, Anna was jolted awake by hearing other names.
Could it be that they were childhood sweethearts, or even betrothed as children?
"Firefly—"
For some reason, Qiong felt that "Kafka" was completely focused on staring at him at this moment, which made him feel a chill down his spine—shouldn't Kafka's mother be giving her child warmth? Is she really that scary?
"She's like family to me, the kind of person I'd risk my life for?"
He breathed a sigh of relief when "Kafka" withdrew her gaze.
Why don't we ask now?
"Um... is Firefly here too?"
Qiong looked at "Kafka," trying to get a response from Kafka's mother.
"Kafka" hesitated for a moment, then shook her head.
"No, she didn't. She's having an affair with Ah Ren."
Qiong's anxious heart was temporarily put at ease.
Thankfully, it's not a big problem. Although I don't know why Kaffa seemed a bit strange, it should definitely be Kaffa herself. The other person is Silver Wolf, a shut-in girl who only cares about playing games but has terrible skills. Later, she asks Silver Wolf for help, just to play a couple of games!
----------------
Until the very end, "Kafka" did not make any physical contact with the two of them. She even refused Sora's final hug and Anna's polite handshake... But somehow, Sora felt that in addition to reluctance, she seemed to be somewhat sad.
It was getting late. After seeing "Kafka" off, Qiong and Anna returned to St. Freya and parted ways at the school gate. After all, Anna didn't live in the teachers' dormitory. He still had to go to the courier station to pick up the gift he promised Kiana, the limited edition of Welt's new work "Seven Houmu" that he had snagged using the Anti-Entropy account.
Even though he hadn't spent a single penny, Qiong felt empty inside after the meal. On the way home, holding his new comic book, he kept thinking about "Kafka's" vaguely sad expression, and the more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt.
But what exactly was wrong? He couldn't quite put his finger on it.
"I can't hear the roar of the launch site in my dreams~"
Qiong took out his phone; it rang. And the only caller he could have set a special ringtone for could be…
"Coralie? Hey, Coralie, did you need something?"
Qiong answered the phone with a blank mind, but there was nothing on the other end except the sound of whistling wind.
"Hey?"
After a long while, a steady young male voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Is it you? Answer me, do you remember what your last words to me were before I opened the sea in the Scaled Abyss Realm?"
Calm words exploded in Qiong's mind; this voice could only belong to him.
"You...you are Danheng?"
"You haven't forgotten everything? Good, but answer my question first."
Qiong: ...
It would be better to just shoot him dead; only a ghost would remember that clearly!
"How could I remember that!"
Unexpectedly, Qiong's answer was affirmed by Dan Heng.
"It doesn't sound like acting; it's your style. But you've still forgotten some things... How have you been lately?"
"Uh, it's alright..."
"That's good……"
There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone. Perhaps Danheng wasn't very talkative and was waiting for him to speak?
"Are you all alright?"
"Yes, everything is fine."
Qiong: ...
Qiong felt that Dan Heng had killed the conversation again.
"However, we have a familiar passenger on our train, and..."
Dan Heng glanced at Coralie, who was making an X with her hands, and then at March 7, who had already drawn her twin swords and was preparing to rush out of the carriage with Helia to land on the floating island...
Forget it, with battle imminent, I won't give her the phone.
"Also, she misses you terribly in March, so very much—Miss Coralie, please allow me to say a few more words…"
beep-
Qiong: ? ? ?
The call was cut off just like that?
Qiong held her phone, completely bewildered.
"What kind of mess is this...?"
Is there too much information today?
Well, perhaps our not-so-peaceful campus life is about to be disrupted.
Even though the weather wasn't cold anymore, a gust of cold wind still sent a chill down Qiong's spine, making him shiver—as if a pair of eyes were watching him from the shadows.
"I'm back~"
She casually placed "Seven Houmu" on the table and refused Bronya's outstretched hand. Under Bronya's pleading gaze, Sora arrived at Mei's room door.
Mei, are you there?
Mei's somewhat erratic voice could be heard from inside the room.
"Sora, you're here... Come in!"
Qiong pushed open the door and saw Mei wearing a purple... dress? Her face was flushed red, and she didn't dare to look up at her.
What's going on? Has Herrscher of Thunder partially awakened?!
"Mei, what's wrong?"
Wait, is there something unusual on the bed?
"Qiong!"
Perhaps to hide her nervousness, Mei opened her arms and shouted at Sora.
"Quickly, come into my arms, or else... this queen will punish you!"
