Chapter 112 Honeymoon Plan
Chapter 112 Honeymoon Plan
After the wedding, Linghua officially moved into Xinyang's room, and their interactions became increasingly bold. They were inseparable day and night, never tired of each other's company. However, for Toma and Lingren, who were still single, this became a unique form of torture.
One night, Thomas couldn't help but come to the study and complain to Ayato, "Xinyang and the young lady are really too unscrupulous! It's okay for them to show their affection all the time during the day, but I can hear noises coming from their room when I get up to go to the bathroom late at night. The young lady has never had such an irregular schedule before, I'm really worried..."
In contrast, Ayato seemed much calmer. Sipping her milk tea, she smiled and soothed, "They're married now, so it's perfectly normal for them to have their own little life. They'll naturally know what's going on and know when to stop. Besides, you've never been married before, so how can you possibly understand their feelings?"
Thomas's frown deepened after hearing Ayato's words, and he muttered to himself, "Even if they're married, they should at least consider the feelings of single men like us! I'm busy all day, and yet I have to endure their dog-food-spreading 'criticism'. It's really unfair!"
Ayato put down the milk tea in his hand, smiled and patted Thomas' shoulder to comfort him: "Alright, alright, stop complaining. You might as well take action quickly and find a suitable partner, so that you can get rid of this 'torture' sooner."
Thomas sighed deeply and shook his head helplessly. "How can it be that simple? I have so many things to deal with every day that I don't have the energy or time to meet girls."
"In that case, how about I assign you some tasks that require traveling? You can take this opportunity to go out more and make some friends with girls, so that when you get older you won't blame me for not creating opportunities for you." Ayato offered advice enthusiastically.
Just then, footsteps were heard outside the door. It turned out to be Xinyang and Linghua. Linghua blushed and said a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry to hear you guys talking here just now. We were negligent and caused you trouble. We will definitely pay more attention in the future."
Seeing this, Thomas quickly waved his hand and smiled, "Alas, Miss, you're too kind. I was just complaining casually, and I didn't mean any other harm. As long as you are happy and joyful, that's all that matters."
Xin Yang jokingly said, "Brother-in-law, you keep telling Thomas to find a girlfriend. Why don't you pay attention to yourself?"
Ayato drank his milk tea slowly, then replied seriously, "Women only affect the speed at which I draw my sword."
Everyone was stunned at first, then burst into laughter. Linghua also covered her mouth and chuckled, "Brother, when did you learn to be as smooth-talking as Xinyang?"
At this time, the atmosphere in the study became more relaxed and cheerful, and the originally slightly serious topic gradually dissipated in laughter.
Ayato gave Thomas a look, and Thomas made an excuse to leave the study. After Thomas left, Ayato's expression changed slightly. "When Mother was still alive, she said, 'When Inazuma ends her isolation, I'll let you two leave Inazuma and go live in Liyue.' Back then, Mother wanted to protect Ayaka, but the situation is different now. The Shebukyo is Inazuma's top shebukyo and is fully capable of guaranteeing your safety. So, whether you two stay in Inazuma or go to other countries, I'll support you both."
After hearing this, Xinyang and Linghua looked at each other at the same time. Xinyang spoke first, "Brother-in-law, we haven't discussed this matter in detail yet. But no matter what, we will prioritize the interests of our family."
Linghua nodded slightly and continued, "Brother, I understand Mother's painstaking efforts. But now the situation has changed, and Xinyang and I would like to hear your thoughts."
Ayato pondered for a moment and said, "In my opinion, staying in Inazuma is certainly safe, but going to Liyue can also broaden your horizons and increase your knowledge. The key is to see what you truly yearn for."
Xinyang held Linghua's hand tightly. "My only wish is to be with Linghua forever. No matter where we are, as long as we have each other by our side, there is nothing to fear."
Linghua's cheeks flushed slightly as she softly replied, "I share the same thought. However, this matter requires careful consideration and should not be acted upon rashly."
Ayato looked at the two people in front of him, a gentle smile on his face, and said, "That's good. You should go back and think carefully. There's no need to make a hasty decision."
Then, Xinyang and Linghua walked out of the study hand in hand. When they returned to the room, Linghua couldn't help but recall the stories Xinyang had told her.
"Are Liyue, Mondstadt, and the other kingdoms really as you describe them?"
"Of course. I'm an Adventer. Every country has its own unique customs and practices. For example, Liyue is a contracted kingdom, the oldest of all. Their rock god, Morax, is also the oldest of all gods. Mondstadt is a symbol of freedom, and its people value it. Other countries also have their own unique characteristics, some mysterious, some picturesque..."
Linghua listened attentively, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and yearning for the unknown world.
However, Linghua soon lowered her head again, her eyes revealing a hint of conflict and struggle. "Sometimes, I really want to visit other countries," Linghua said softly, a hint of melancholy in her voice, "but I really can't bear to leave my brother and the Inazuma family."
Xinyang understood Linghua's feelings. He patted her shoulder gently and comforted her, "Actually, we don't have to settle down in another country. We can choose to go on a honeymoon. This will satisfy your curiosity about the outside world without leaving Inazuma for too long. Besides, even if we do live in another country in the future, we can always come back to visit everyone."
After hearing these words, Linghua was enlightened. She looked up excitedly, her eyes sparkling with surprise and gratitude. "Honeymoon trip? Yes! I hadn't thought of that! Honeymoon trip, dear, you are so smart!" Linghua couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, and generously gave Xinyang a gentle and sweet kiss. This sudden move caught Xinyang off guard.
Linghua kissed Xinyang gently and said eagerly, "I'll reward you later. I'm going to find my brother now and tell him we're going on our honeymoon." Her voice was filled with anticipation and excitement, as if she were already on a wonderful journey. With that, Linghua turned and left, her steps brisk but firm, leaving Xinyang standing there with a happy smile on her face.
