my pokemon player.

Ryan subconsciously shrank back when he saw Tian Lengmei, with a look of disdain in his eyes, and quickly waved his hand to explain:

"No, I'm really not that kind of person! I'm not interested in your feet!"

The sweet and cold queen raised her blushing little face, stared at him suspiciously with her big pink and purple eyes, and asked in a low voice:

"Ah?" (Really?)
"Of course it's true. I like drinking the juice you make just because it represents your kindness. I don't have any special hobbies!" Ryan replied firmly.

After getting Ryan's answer, the sweet and beautiful queen seemed to be relieved. Her tense body relaxed slightly, and the shame and suspicion in her eyes gradually faded away.

However, its head, which had been held high all day, drooped down, its long eyelashes cast a small shadow on its cheek, and its two little hands were drawing circles in a tangled manner.

It was silent for a while before it uttered a very soft response:

"Ah." (Oh.)

Rather than the relief of having a misunderstanding clarified, this voice revealed a hint of loss that even the voice itself might be aware of.

If Ryan liked its feet, it would actually be quite happy and would not think Ryan was a pervert.

It's a pity that it is too embarrassed to say this out loud. Just like Ryan just said, it can no longer express its feelings as freely as it did in the Tian Zhuzhu period.

However, its feelings for Ryan have never changed. Ryan will always be its best partner and family member, no doubt about it!

Thinking of this, the sweet and cold queen regained her spirits and looked at Ryan with anticipation, waiting for Ryan's evaluation of the juice.

Ryan didn't notice the little thoughts of Tianlengmeihou. He drank the juice in one gulp and then let out a satisfied "hiss".

"Not bad, really good, still the familiar taste!"

Hearing Ryan's praise, Queen Tianlengmei first raised the corners of her mouth, then raised her head and let out a proud snort.

"Ah!"
"Thank you, sweet and cold queen, the juice is delicious."

Ryan thanked him as he sat back in his chair and put the cup down.

When the sweet and cold queen heard this, her eyes lit up, and she asked cautiously in a low voice:
"Ah?" (Do you feel better now?)

Ryan looked at the nervous expression on Queen Tianlengmei's face and shook his head with a smile:

"When did I ever say I was in a bad mood? Don't think too much about it."

Queen Tian Lengmei suddenly became anxious and said hurriedly: "Ah." (But)

Before it could finish its words, Ryan interrupted it with a wave of his hand: "I know what you want to say. You're just worried that I won't find my father, and my mood will be affected."

"Ahhh!" The sweet and cold queen nodded repeatedly, and a hint of worry flashed in her eyes again.

Ryan said calmly: "To be honest, if I say that my emotions are not affected at all, I would be deceiving myself."

"But I'm not as upset as you think. After all, I learned that he is still alive and well."

"He lives a much more comfortable life than I do. He has no pressure to develop a territory and can adventure freely on the sea. This is exactly the life I have always dreamed of."

"So I'm not sad because I didn't find any trace of him. Instead, I'm a little jealous of his current life, and even a little angry."

"As a lord who is deeply trusted by his subjects, he not only failed to fulfill his due responsibilities, but also directly threw the territory to me and ignored me and the territory."

"I thought his personality would change after experiencing the last beast tide disaster, but I didn't expect him to be still the same as before..."

At this point, Ryan frowned, not knowing how to evaluate his cheap father for a moment.

Just then, a voice from outside the door helped Ryan make an appropriate assessment.

"You're still so careless and irresponsible, right?"

When Ryan heard this familiar voice, he immediately looked up at the door and said jokingly with a smile:
"It seems that Uncle White also has a lot of opinions about him."

White at the door shrugged and walked into the study.

"He was like this in the past. He said he would do his duty for the territory, but once he was asked to handle government affairs, he would find ways to shirk his responsibilities."

"How do you think my ability in government affairs improved? It was all because of him! I am only a knight commander!"

Perhaps because he was talking about Ryan's father, White was not as respectful as before, and it seemed more like he was chatting about family matters.

"You and him are quite similar in this respect. Both of you don't like dealing with government affairs."

White said in a dark tone, with a hint of mockery in his eyes.

"Ahem." Ryan coughed twice and defended himself in a low voice: "I'm just dealing with other things."

White nodded slightly: "Yes, Master Nord has used this excuse before."

"No, why can he use this excuse! Didn't he only have one Firefly Town at that time? How could he have so many things to deal with?"

Ryan retorted loudly: "It's different for me. I govern so many towns and I'm so busy every day. It's normal that I don't have time to handle government affairs."

"Really?" White nodded noncommittally. "So what were you busy with this morning? You didn't handle any government affairs."

"Of course I'm busy thinking about the future of the territory!" Ryan said casually, and then quickly changed the subject.

"We were just talking about my irresponsible father, why are you bringing me into this again?"

"Uncle White, you also think he is too much, right? He is obviously alive and well, but he is unwilling to come back to visit, and he didn't even send a message to report that he is safe. You are so sad and cry for him."

When White heard this, his old face suddenly turned red: "When did I cry bitterly? Don't talk nonsense!"

Ryan raised his eyebrows and asked with interest: "Then can you swear that you have never cried for him?"

"I..." White hesitated, and finally said helplessly: "Well, I did shed tears, but it wasn't as exaggerated as you said."

"That's about right. He's just playing with your feelings!" Ryan was still standing up for White.

White was furious when he heard this: "Master Ryan, could you please stop using random words like a visitor from the divine realm!"

"My words may be blunt but my point is valid. You must be dissatisfied with him. Otherwise, with your personality, you would not say bad things about him in front of me." Ryan said calmly.

White nodded slightly: "Yes, I do have some dissatisfaction with him, but it's not because he didn't take on the responsibilities of a lord, but because he didn't act as a good father!"

He lowered his eyes slightly, his voice low but clear: "He abandoned his territory and his duties, and he may be able to find excuses for these." "But as a father, he shouldn't have abandoned you and let you face all this alone at such a young age, and you don't even know whether he is alive or dead."

"This is what I can't let go of and what makes me feel dissatisfied. The last thing a father should avoid is protecting his children!"

White raised his head and looked at Ryan with complicated eyes, which contained friendship and longing for his old master, as well as pity and heartache for the young man in front of him.

"He might be an interesting adventure partner, a comrade you can trust, a... uh, unreliable lord."

"But he is not a qualified father. He has betrayed your trust and emotions. From your point of view, he is an incompetent bastard father!"

"So you don't have to hold back your hatred and disgust for him. You can curse him as much as you want. As long as it makes you feel happier, I will curse him with you!"

"To be honest, I have learned a lot of elegant swear words from the visitors from the God Realm, without even using swear words. For example, you used two words for 'touching the scene and feeling emotional', and 'the rectum leads to the brain'."

Seeing that White was about to tell everything he had learned, Ryan quickly raised his hand to stop him.

"Wait a minute, are you scolding him or me?"

White also reacted and hurriedly explained: "I must be scolding him, just wait and see, I will scold him to death when he comes back!"

Seeing White so anxious, Ryan chuckled and said, "Okay, Uncle White, I know you are worried that I appear to be calm on the surface, but in fact I am suppressing my resentment towards him."

"So you're trying to make me vent my anger so that my hatred for him won't accumulate, right?"

When White heard Ryan speak out his true thoughts, he nodded and said, "Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from your sharp eyes, young master."

“Good fellow, not only did you learn dirty words from the visitor from the God Realm, you also learned how to flatter him, right?” Ryan teased with a smile.

Without waiting for White to open his mouth to explain, Ryan continued, "First it was the Sweet and Cold Queen, and then it was you. There won't be other people and Pokémon behind, right?"

"Why are you all so worried that my mood will be affected? You are really underestimating me!"

"When I took over the mess in Firefly Town, the Knights were completely wiped out, and I didn't know whether my father was alive or dead. I also had to guard against the invasion of Ironthorn Town. It was a mixture of internal and external troubles."

"My mentality was not broken at that time. Now I just haven't found my father. How could I be devastated? Your worry is completely unnecessary."

Ryan was very helpless at this time. Although he did not find any trace of the cheap dad near Red Rock Island yesterday, he did not feel lost, but instead felt relieved.

Because he was not mentally prepared to face that cheap father, and was afraid that the other party would find any flaws in him.

However, the others did not know what he was thinking. When he returned to the territory and told White and others that his father was still alive, these people were ecstatic and cheered.

After he gave the details and told White and others that his father would not be back for a while, these people began to worry about his mood again.

It's not their fault for thinking too much. Under normal circumstances, when a child finds out that his father is still alive but is unwilling to come back to see him and takes risks alone, his mood will definitely be affected.

Little did he know that this was actually good news for Ryan. On the one hand, his cheap father was still alive and he managed to subdue two divine beasts. On the other hand, it also gave him time to prepare himself mentally.

So Ryan did not feel sorry for himself or feel depressed, but White and the others did not think so. They felt that Ryan was just pretending and hiding his emotions.

In addition, the current situation in the territory is very tense, and the war between them and Lion City is almost imminent. Therefore, White and others are very worried about Ryan's condition, fearing that Ryan will be hit.

Facing White's concerned gaze, Ryan sighed silently and explained again:

"My mentality has not been affected at all. At least he is still alive. This is good news for us, isn't it?"

"As for why he is unwilling to come back, perhaps he is afraid of taking on the responsibility of the territory again, or perhaps he is busy hunting down the Shadow Church."

"No matter what the reason is, I can understand it. He was always so unreliable before. I'm used to it."

White carefully observed Ryan's expression after hearing this, and after confirming that he was speaking from the heart, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief:

"You'll get used to it. In fact, I've gotten used to it. When I learned that he didn't return to the territory but was hunting down the Shadow Church, I wasn't surprised at all. Instead, I felt that this was what he should do."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk." Ryan smacked his lips unhappily. "You just said you'd join me in scolding him, but now you're turning around and speaking well of him."

"Sure enough, the relationship between us is still not as strong as the deep bond between you and him!"

White smiled sheepishly: "I'm not speaking for him, I'm just expressing my true thoughts."

"Don't worry, when he comes back, I will definitely help you scold him!"

"Then I'll wait and see. I'll ask Xiao Luo to take a picture of it then." Ryan said, leaning back in his chair.

"Ah? I guess that's not necessary."

"Hey, I knew you were lying to me~"

"Okay, okay, let's take the photo. Don't forget to ask Xiao Luo to take a better-looking photo of me!"

The two of them joked with each other and their mood became much better.

Ryan felt the care of Queen Tianlengmei and White and others, which made him, an orphan in his previous life, feel a long-lost and cherished warmth in his heart.

White was convinced that Ryan's mentality was not affected. Although Ryan was dissatisfied with Master Nord's irresponsible behavior, at least he did not turn love into hate, and the relationship between father and son was not broken.

"By the way, you came to see me not just to inquire about my situation, right? What is the document in your hand?"

Ryan changed the subject and raised his chin towards the document in White's hand.

"This is..." Just as White was about to speak, Ryan's panicked voice came to his ears:

"Wait! This can't be government affairs!"

“Well, actually this is.”

"Uncle White, you may not believe this, but my calm demeanor just now was all fake. In fact, I am in a very complicated mood right now and cannot handle government affairs for the time being."

Looking at Ryan's distressed expression, which couldn't be more fake, White's mouth twitched slightly:
"Master, you are worrying too much. This is not a government matter. It is a declaration of war issued to you by the lords of Qingquan Town and other three towns."

Ryan heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this, and said nonchalantly:

"Oh, it turned out to be a declaration of war. I was shocked. I thought it was asking me to handle government affairs."
