Anyway, it was a pleasant evening.

Pleasant moonlit beach, pleasant barbecue supper, and pleasant inter-racial communication.

...At least this is the case for Xingke and Nezha. (Ao Bing: I have objections!~)

However, if we put it another way - [Nezha and Xingke spent a pleasant night together], the sense of language will appear to be slightly ambiguous, so we will leave it aside for the time being.

Anyway, when the sky in the east turned pale and a golden thread appeared on the other side of the sea level, Xing immediately picked up Nezha, who was sleeping soundly, and said goodbye to Ao Bing and returned home.

Unlike the human race, the dragon race, like the demon race, is strictly a nocturnal race.

When the sun was about to rise, it was just the right time to sleep and rest in the warmth of the seabed. Instead, Ao Bing went to Chentangguan Taoist Temple and played in the human society as a "night tour".

Ao Bing always "closes her eyes and meditates" during class, which looks very cold and arrogant, but in fact she is just closing her eyes and meditating.

It looks like her back is straight and her expression is calm. That's because her cultivation level is very high.

—·—·—

When Xingke returned to Li's Mansion, he was not as sneaky as when he went out.

Because when he arrived at the door of his home, Li Jing and Mrs. Yin were already waiting at the door with their maids and servants, waiting for Xingke and their return.

——After all, the Li family is the only big family in Chentangguan. How could they not notice when their two children disappeared overnight?

Regardless of Xingke, it would be good if he doesn't trick others when he goes out, and Taiyi has already reported it in advance.

But Nezha is different. She is the innocent and straightforward daughter of the Li family. In the eyes of Li Jing and his wife, she is still a silly child.

Nezha and Xingke disappeared late at night. They could guess that Xingke had most likely taken Nezha out, so they were not too nervous.

This means not only believing in Xing Ke’s strength, but also trusting and respecting Xing Ke himself.

However, you still need to worry.

So I waited here early in the morning to wait for the star to come back.

Li Jing watched Xing Ke carrying Nezha on his back, walking step by step from the bottom of the mountain to him.

The two looked at each other blankly for a moment, and Li Jing couldn't help but sigh.

"Ahem, madam, you take Nezha to sleep in the room first, and I'll talk to Xingke."

"……Um."

Mrs. Yin agreed, took Nezha from Xingke's back, patted Xingke on the head, and turned around to go back.

Xingke touched his head, then sat on Mrs. Yin's chair and said calmly:

"I admit my mistake, I should tell you."

"..." Seeing Xing Ke being so calm, Li Jing asked, "Then why didn't you say anything?"

"Is it because of the atmosphere? [Sneaking out to play at night] itself is just like [stealing]. If we report it in advance, wouldn't there be no atmosphere?"

"Strong words! What nonsense! There is no such thing in the world..."

"Father, do you think keeping an aunt secretly is the same as taking a concubine officially?"

"Shut up, kid, and don't try to smear me. I will always be devoted to your mother!~"

Li Jing finally couldn't maintain the calmness of "Strict Father" now. He widened his eyes and turned to refute Xing Ke.

But at this moment, he saw Xing Ke's malicious smile and said:

"Dad, I think it's time for Nezha to go out for a walk.

She is different from me. I have been a homebody for 180 years and nothing has happened.

She is now in a critical period of [understanding the world], you can't expect her to be locked up in the Li Mansion and be a boudoir lady, right?"

"..." After hearing Xing Ke's serious words, Li Jing pondered for a moment and asked:

"Do you think Nezha is now... mentally capable enough to accept the outside world?"

In fact, Li Jing also knows that in other families, the daughter is Wenjing, the son is Sunshine, and the female is civilized and the male is martial.

But in his family, it was just the opposite.

This son of his seems to be a formal person, full of bad ideas, does things in a leisurely manner, and is full of everyone's demeanor. No matter how you think about it, he is not a person who likes to practice martial arts.

On the contrary, my daughter is a lively and cheerful person, jumping up and down, looking like she can never stop. Her qualifications and personality are both good materials for practicing martial arts.

However, success is also Xiaohe, failure is also Xiaohe.

Before it comes to future achievements, Nezha's qualifications are too strong, and she can't control the intensity of her actions.

If he were to be released directly to see people like this, hurting people and destroying things would be trivial matters, and the Li family would not be short of money to compensate.

The most important thing is actually other people's opinions of Nezha. Will the strange looks have any impact on Nezha's young mind?

Being classified as an alien by the people around him early on is really cruel to a child.

It would be better to leave her in the Li Mansion to grow up first. She would not be so lonely if she had a mature brother to accompany her. This was actually the foresight of Li Jing and his wife, and they had thought so before.

But after all, it's not a long-term solution.

Even if Nezha wanted to have an only child, this plan might have gone bankrupt long ago, and he wouldn't be able to hold on for a few days.

"So you are too underestimating Nezha. She is not really a stupid girl. She just rarely takes the initiative to think about complicated things at this carefree age."

Xingke shook his head and said helplessly:

"That child is born with [intuition] that is far beyond ordinary people. Often, even when he doesn't understand anything, he can avoid misfortunes and seek blessings with this wild intuition."

"...You mean that we don't have to worry about Nezha's safety, so letting her go out and experience some ups and downs is also training her?" Li Jing said thoughtfully.

"The edge of a sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold." Xing Ke continued to persuade:

"You always say she's still young, but how can she grow up if she doesn't take care of her?"

"Oh... that's all, that's all. I would rather she never grow up like that." As an old father, Li Jing's tone was full of helplessness:

"What kind of sword is it? It's a plum-blossom sword. Your mother and I are sheltering from the wind and rain every day, and we don't expect you to become any great talents.

You can live your life peacefully, so what if you are mediocre?"

——There are tens of thousands of talented people in this world, but how many of them died halfway in the struggle for success?

Fighting for the upper reaches also involves the risk of fighting for the upper reaches.

"I think you're right. I also hope to be able to eat my old age and be like a rice worm, so that your two elders can continue to support me while they are still in their prime." Xing Ke curled his lips and said regretfully.

"Go away, I didn't say that." Li Jing was alerted that Xingke's understanding seemed to be wrong, and quickly added: "I mean Nezha, not including you. You are so smart, go and stand on your own."

“But doesn’t that backfire?

Because of Nezha, I can't be an ordinary person. Nezha also cannot be ordinary because of the "fate" mentioned by Mr. Taiyi.

You see, fate always goes against our wishes."

"..." Li Jing glanced at Xing Ke silently, stood up and said, "That's all, just do what you want to do.

Your two brothers also left this home early and left Chentangguan to study in order to pursue their so-called dreams.

None of our descendants of the Li family are ordinary people who are willing to stay where they are..."

"Huh? That's not right, Dad, I am not. In my heart, I am willing to stay where I am. I want to be an ordinary person." Xingke retorted persistently.

However, Li Jing didn't want to agree to Xingke's words at all, so he turned around and went back home.

But after taking two steps, I remembered something, paused and told Xingji:
Chapter completed!
