Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Returns from Japan

Chapter 621 is open?
"Did your junior sister do your makeup too?" Lu Mingfei asked.

“My senior from the cheerleading team did my makeup,” Erii typed in reply.

"Is this the makeup you'll be wearing for the opening ceremony performance later?" Lu Mingfei asked. He knew that Erii had been half-coaxed and half-tricked by Xia Mi into joining the school's cheerleading team and was going to perform at the opening ceremony.

"Yes, isn't it good-looking?"

Saying she's not pretty would be a lie. A girl who is already beautiful without makeup looks even more radiant with a light touch.

If you could only use a five-second shot to introduce Kyoto, it would be a girl in a kimono looking back in the snow at the snow-covered Fushimi Inari Shrine.

"It looks nice. But don't listen to your junior sister so easily in the future."

"Why?" Erii blinked. The glitter from her eyeshadow made her already bright eyes even brighter, causing Lu Mingfei's heart to flutter.

Why? Of course, it's because Lu Mingfei felt he might lose his resolve and do something bad prematurely.

Girls who are unaware of their own charm are especially captivating when they showcase it.

Ever since Erii started spending time with Natsumi, Natsumi has been doing this all the time: spraying Erii with perfume every now and then, and making Erii wear pretty little dresses and twirl around in front of Lu Mingfei to show off. Erii always obediently does as she's told. This makes Lu Mingfei's heart itch, as if something is scratching at it.

But if Erii were also pushed down by him... wouldn't that be too unfair to Miaomiao?

Lu Mingfei's mind started wandering.

However, Erii, who seems to be simple-minded, is not so naive. Although she has never received socialization training, Erii may have gradually learned some of the "rules" of the real world through her interactions with her peers.

When they go out together, Erii always offers her cool little hand to Lu Mingfei to hold, but she never does that at school. She only acts coquettishly towards Lu Mingfei when they're alone.

Erii followed obediently beside Lu Mingfei. The two of them turned out of the back door of the studio and walked along the small path outside the studio where few people passed by. Lu Mingfei said in a serious tone, "Because my junior sister is a bad person, you have to stay away from her."

Erii typed: "But I think Miya is a really nice person."

Look, he's only known his junior sister for a short time, but he's already on her side and saying she's not a bad person.

Hmm... It seems like Erii hasn't known me for very long.

Even now, Lu Mingfei is still quite surprised. Erii, whom he had only met once before at the airport, actually trusted him so much back then.

Not only was she willing to run away from home with me, but she also took the initiative to stand on my side when I had a conflict with Yuan Zhisheng.

Lu Mingfei has never really believed in the idea of ​​love at first sight or destiny. What love at first sight? All love at first sight is just lust at first sight.

Look at Guo Xiang, she fell in love with Yang Guo at Fengling Ferry and was doomed for life. That's because when Yang Guo took off his mask, he revealed Louis Koo's face! And he was even fair-skinned Louis Koo! If Yang Guo had taken off his mask and revealed Eight-Taels-of-Gold's face instead of Louis Koo's, do you think she would have been doomed?

Although Lu Mingfei thought he was just average-looking, Erii wouldn't trust him so unconditionally just because he was handsome.

...Is that also possible?
After all, this wasn't the first time Erii had run away from home with him; she had a history of this. Erii and Lu Mingfei had only met once underwater in Tokyo Bay before, and when they met again at Genji Heavy Industries, the yakuza princess was completely lured away by a random male escort.

"How's school life?" Lu Mingfei asked Erii. "Are you getting used to it?"

“I’m used to it. Everyone is very nice and will take the initiative to chat with me,” Erii typed.

Lu Mingfei nodded. Although Shilan Middle School is a private elite school, there aren't that many mischievous spoiled brats in the school. Most students retain the kindness and empathy unique to students.

When Erii first transferred to the school, some girls in her class came over to greet her, and they were a little surprised that Erii didn't speak. After learning from Liu Miaomiao that Erii couldn't speak because of illness, they all showed great friendliness.

In addition, Erii has an adorable appearance and a well-behaved personality. Although Erii is a year older than most of the girls in her class, the girls seem to prefer to take care of her as a younger sister.

Are you comfortable living at home?

"I've gotten used to it. My house is big and spacious, and I have fewer nightmares at night. It's just that I can't buy Japanese versions of games; I can only play Chinese or English ones, which is a bit inconvenient."

The PS3 primarily uses discs to play games. Game discs released in different regions may have content cuts and changes, and most importantly, the game language and voice acting may differ. In Lu Mingfei's hometown, only Hong Kong versions of Chinese and English game discs are available; Japanese discs are not.

However, it was another keyword that caught Lu Mingfei's attention.

"Nightmare?" Lu Mingfei was taken aback for a moment, then immediately asked, "Has Erii always had nightmares before?"

“Not always, it started after I met Sakura. I occasionally have scary dreams,” Erii replied.

Lu Mingfei frowned: "What kind of scenes does Erii dream about?"

“I dreamt that I secretly ran away from home behind my brother’s back, but I got lost in the basement and couldn’t find the exit no matter what I did. I couldn’t get out or go back. I was very scared and wanted to cry but I didn’t dare to. I didn’t know what to do, so I could only hide in a corner and wait for someone else to find me. Then Sakura would find me, reach out her hand to me and say that she would take me away from here. We walked side by side, you held my hand, and I secretly turned my head to look at your face.”

"So that's why you were willing to run away from home with me back then?"

"Yes, I know Sakura isn't a bad person." That explains why Erii was willing to go with him back then...

However, Erii said that she started having nightmares after meeting him, and only recently stopped.

Lu Mingfei felt that this matter couldn't be explained by simple coincidence... He should ask Lu Mingze about it tomorrow.

The beeping notification interrupted Lu Mingfei's thoughts. He picked up his phone; it was a message from Erii.

"Sakura..."

"What's wrong?" Lu Mingfei looked at the girl beside him.

"How about we switch hands? It's inconvenient for me to type with my left hand."

Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously lowered his head, only to find that his hand had unknowingly reached for Erii's smooth little hand, his fingers even stroking the back of Erii's fair hand, delicate, smooth, and cool. Erii was holding the Nokia N73 that Lu Mingfei had bought for her in one hand, looking at him with gentle eyes.

Unbeknownst to them, they had somehow turned off the small path outside the back door of the studio and onto the tree-lined main road leading from the school gate to the gymnasium. The students from Shilan Middle School around them watched them with complex expressions.

Lu Mingfei looked at the little hands he was holding with Erii and wondered when he and Erii had started holding hands... Could this be what they call being unable to control their feelings?

……

However, the walk with Erii didn't last long. At 9:30, Lu Mingfei took Erii back to the studio. The opening ceremony of the school sports meet was starting at 10:00, and Erii had to participate in the opening ceremony performance with the cheerleading team.

Lu Mingfei didn't join any clubs or sign up for any sports, so he didn't need to prepare for the opening ceremony performance like Erii and the others. Therefore, he only needed to return to his seat in his class and be a spectator.

The reason he didn't sign up for any sports events was, of course, because it wasn't necessary. After all, with his current physical condition, participating in a high school sports meet would be like transforming into Ultraman to participate in a martial arts competition—it would be somewhat unfair.

Aside from Xia Mi, all the other girls signed up for sports events. Liu Miaomiao, Chen Wenwen, and Su Xiaoqiang signed up for the women's 4x800m mixed relay.

At first, Lu Mingfei was worried that Liu Miaomiao would sign up for the mixed race and stay at school every afternoon after school to train, and wondered if he might have any opportunities to take advantage of her.

He just hadn't expected Liu Miaomiao's training to be so serious... and the track and field club seniors were incredibly oblivious, dragging out each training session for ages, until it was already past 7 PM by the time it ended. This left Lu Mingfei with absolutely no chance to coax Liu Miaomiao home.

"Hi……"

On the playground ahead, the honor guards from each grade were ready to go. Lu Mingfei sat in his class's audience seat, his chin resting on his hand, and let out a soft sigh.

With a helpless expression, he silently tapped Tab and closed the favorability panel that had been displayed in front of him.

"The progress of Little Fairy and Wenwen's bloodline enhancement is getting faster and faster."

Lu Mingfei thought to himself, "I guess Wenwen will be able to upgrade from D-level to C-level bloodline soon, right?"

However, while Xiaotiannv and Chen Wenwen's progress was smooth, Liu Miaomiao's bloodline progress was still stagnant, which inevitably made him sigh.

Lu Mingfei sighed again, thinking that things should take their natural course; these things can't be rushed. Haste makes waste.

"Why do you sigh when a true man should serve his country?" A light, cheerful voice suddenly interrupted Lu Mingfei's thoughts.

"?"

Xuande... oops, Lu Mingfei looked back at the person, who was 159.05cm tall, with willow-leaf eyebrows, almond eyes, dimples, and crescent-shaped lips. Her voice was like a silver bell, and she moved like a little girl.

Lu Mingfei noticed her unusual appearance and asked her name.

The man blinked, then widened his eyes and said, "It's only been a few days since we last met, and the class monitor doesn't recognize me anymore?"

Monitor?

The familiar address made Lu Mingfei frown subconsciously.

Although he is indeed the class monitor of Class 2, Grade 1, not many people actually call him "class monitor." People like Liu Miaomiao usually call him by his name, while Liu Miaomiao's other friends call him Lu Mingfei. Among the girls he knows, only two call him Class Monitor Lu.

After eliminating one incorrect answer, only one correct answer remains.

"Deng Zhuoyi?" Lu Mingfei was stunned. "Are you wearing makeup or using a beauty filter? Using a beauty filter is a bit too much, isn't it?"

"what!"

The other person gritted their teeth, stomped their foot, and said angrily, "I am Lin Huihui! Class monitor, tell me honestly, did you deliberately call me by the wrong name?"
