Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Returns from Japan

Chapter 659 Dating
Aki had a hickey on her neck, and Lu Mingfei naturally had the same one.

However, Lu Mingfei had more experience in doing bad things than Bia Ji. Before meeting Liu Miaomiao and the others, he went to a pharmacy near the Regent Hotel first.

When paying, Lu Mingfei noticed that the young female clerk at the pharmacy glanced at him a few times.

Is it really that obvious?

Lu Mingfei thought to himself that it was good he had come to the pharmacy to buy band-aids beforehand.

If I just go and meet up with Miaomiao and the others like this, and they see the hickey on my neck, I won't be able to explain it.

In fact, even if Lu Mingfei were to confess directly to Liu Miaomiao and the other girls that he had also won over Aki, they would probably accept it without hesitation.

Because Liu Miaomiao didn't say anything when she brought Erii home.

Furthermore, after Lu Mingfei and Liu Miaomiao finally broke through that final barrier, Liu Miaomiao's views had undergone significant changes. She was somewhat glad that she had agreed to Lu Mingfei's suggestion of a group relationship.

After all, that feeling was indeed wonderful... but she couldn't really handle it alone, and even she and Wenwen were both struggling.

However, it was Aki who requested Lu Mingfei to keep this matter a secret for the time being, because she was not yet mentally prepared to meet the "family members".

Lu Mingfei could probably understand Aki's nervousness and shyness. After all, she was originally Liu Miaomiao and Su Xiaoqiang's senior sister, but now their roles had reversed, and the senior sister had become the younger sister. Aki's personality was naturally rather shy, so it would definitely take her some time to accept this change in status.

Therefore, he respected Aki's opinion and continued to keep this matter a secret from the little fairy and the others for the time being.

"Could I borrow a mirror from the store?" Lu Mingfei asked the pharmacy clerk.

The pharmacy clerk nodded silently. Lu Mingfei went to the mirror and examined the hickey on his neck.

"Why is it still heart-shaped?" Lu Mingfei couldn't help but mutter after seeing the strawberry print, and tore off the bandage to cover it up.

"There's another one behind the neck," the female shop assistant whispered a reminder.

Lu Mingfei was taken aback upon hearing this. He turned his neck to take a closer look and, sure enough, found another hickey on the back of his right neck. After thanking the female shop assistant, he covered the hickey with a band-aid. He thought to himself, "I didn't expect Senior Sister Aki to be so good at sucking..."

The act of covering a hickey with a band-aid on the neck is, of course, a bit of an attempt to conceal the fact.

So after meeting up with the girls, Lu Mingfei took the initiative to apologize for being a little late, and then said that he had just gone to the pharmacy and had been bitten by mosquitoes twice on his neck, and was having a bit of an allergic reaction.

Although Su Xiaoqiang was curious about what kind of mosquito was so venomous that it could cause an allergic reaction in Lu Mingfei, who has thick skin, she didn't suspect anything.

The main reason is that she could never think of covering up the hickeys, let alone imagine that those hickeys were personally imprinted on by her highly respected senior sister, Aki.

Only Xia Mi knew what Lu Mingfei had been doing just now.

……

The news that I don't know whether to call good or bad is that Ji Ruyan and Liu Yue finally went home this weekend.

Liu Miaomiao's parents finally returned home after being away on a business trip for almost half a month, so she naturally wanted to stay home with them. Therefore, she couldn't go out this weekend, and her usual weekend date had to be temporarily cancelled.

However, this would allow Lu Mingfei to get through these two days peacefully, waiting for the hickey on his neck to fade and completely destroy the evidence.

During his phone conversation with Aki, Lu Mingfei learned that Norma had already sent out their paper offers. However, due to the international nature of the mail, it would probably take another two weeks for the offers to reach Shilan Middle School.

About two weeks later, around the time of final exams, the admission notice arrived, which wasn't too late.

Now that Liu Miaomiao and Chen Wenwen's school enrollment issues have been resolved, Lu Ming's next task is...

"What? You want to break up with Junior Sister Su?" Aki asked in surprise over the phone.
It's a weekend morning, and Lu Mingfei is in his room talking on the phone with Aki. As a newlywed couple, they're currently in the honeymoon phase, and they've been chatting on the phone for ages since early morning.

However, before they had talked for long, Aki heard Lu Mingfei say on the phone that he might break up with Su Xiaoqiang soon.

"It's not a real breakup... it's just a fake one," Lu Mingfei said, his voice slightly helpless.

Of course, it was just a fake breakup. Now that Su Xiaoqiang had given her everything to Lu Mingfei, how could she possibly bear to break up with him?
Aki was a little confused: "A fake breakup?"

"Mmm."

Lu Mingfei spoke with a hint of helplessness, explaining the cause and effect of the matter to Aki.

The reason Lu Mingfei insisted on a fake breakup with Xiaotian was because it was something they had agreed upon beforehand. Everyone was about to transfer schools and leave Shilan Middle School, and before leaving, Chen Wenwen had to be Lu Mingfei's "official girlfriend" for once. It was a way to ensure their youth wouldn't be filled with regrets.

After hearing Lu Mingfei's explanation, Aki patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

This startled her. She thought it was because her relationship with Lu Mingfei had been discovered by Junior Sister Su, causing conflict in Mingfei's family...

I never expected my junior sisters to have such a good relationship; they even defer to each other when it comes to the title of "official girlfriend."

Aki laughed and said, "But this will only worsen your reputation, Mingfei. You just broke up with Junior Sister Liu and got together with Junior Sister Su, and now you've already set your sights on Junior Sister Chen. You truly deserve to be number one on the 'This Scoundrel Should Be Killed' list."

Lu Mingfei was taken aback: "How do you also know about the 'List of Those Who Should Be Killed'?"

"I've also browsed your school's forum. When recruiting students, shouldn't I first learn about your school?"

Aki said sarcastically, "That novel post titled 'Lu Mingfei and His Life on Thin Ice' is pretty good. I've been following it recently. Is it based on your real experiences, junior brother?"

Lu Mingfei thought to himself: Yes... but not entirely. After all, I've already won over Senior Sister Aki, but Senior Sister Aki in the novel hasn't even appeared yet.

"Oh, by the way," Lu Mingfei suddenly remembered something and asked, "Aki, are you busy today?"

"Not too busy. I'm organizing the mission log I wrote when I was tracking the Gypsy camp in Eastern Siberia. After you finish your business here, Mingfei, I might have to go back to Siberia with Professor Guderian."

Aki replied with a smile, "What's wrong? Junior brother, are you planning to ask me out on a date?"

The question was originally just a joke. After all, Aki knew that Junior Brother Lu had so many girlfriends, and her relationship with him wasn't yet public; it was still a secret affair. Junior Brother Lu would definitely be spending his weekends with Junior Sister Liu and Junior Sister Su.

Unexpectedly, Lu Mingfei readily admitted, "Yes, there's a preview screening of Jay Chou's movie 'Secret' at the Wanda Cinema in the CBD this weekend, so I was wondering if you're free to keep your junior company." Aki paused for a moment, not expecting that her junior brother Lu was actually asking her out on a date.

It would be a lie to say I'm not happy. After all, newly confirmed couples are often more clingy and want to be together all the time.

But she still hesitated before asking, "Where are Junior Sister Su and the others?"

Liu Miaomiao and Chen Wenwen couldn't go out today. Liu Miaomiao's parents had returned from their business trip, while Chen Wenwen hadn't been to church for a while because she had been going out with Lu Mingfei recently. She was determined to go today no matter what.

As for the little fairy… Lu Mingfei thought back to how the little fairy was half asleep when he left her room this morning. He figured that even if she woke up, they definitely wouldn't be able to go out to the movies together this afternoon.

That said, Little Celestial Maiden really hasn't improved at all. Even though her junior sister has already absorbed the vast majority of the firepower...

Of course, Lu Mingfei couldn't tell the truth. He replied with high emotional intelligence, "I just want to see it with Aki, is that not allowed?"

This isn't really a lie. When Chu Zihang gave him those two tickets to the preview screening of "Secret," Lu Mingfei had already planned to go see it with Aya.

This movie won't be officially released until July of this year, and it's one of Lu Mingfei's favorite romance films. There will be many more opportunities to watch this movie with Miaomiao and the others, but this will probably be the only chance to watch it with Aki.

The title "Secret" is fitting, as his secret relationship with Aki cannot be revealed for the time being.

Although Aki is Lu Mingfei's senior in terms of age, she has almost zero experience in love. She couldn't resist Lu Mingfei's direct flirting, and her heart was already pounding. Biting her lip, she said:

"Of course, you can... But isn't Jay Chou a singer? I've heard his songs, they're quite good. Did he also act in movies?"

"Yes, he also starred in the live-action version of Initial D, playing Takumi Fujiwara."

"So what's the theme of the movie you're talking about?"

"Horror movies, are you scared?"

"Don't be afraid, I'm not a little girl like Junior Sister Su anymore. I'm your senior sister, after all!"

"Yes, yes, senior sister, are you free to go on a date with your junior brother today?"

"My work isn't too busy here, it's okay to sort it out later... By the way, is it really a horror movie?"

"Isn't Senior Sister fearless?"

"I'm not afraid, but I still need to ask beforehand. Just so I can be mentally prepared..."

Lu Mingfei could hear the hesitation in Aki's voice, so he stopped teasing her: "Okay, okay, even if I have low emotional intelligence, I can't possibly take my girlfriend to see a horror movie on our first date, can I? It's a romance movie."

Hearing that it wasn't a horror movie, Aki breathed a sigh of relief on the other end of the phone, while a strange feeling welled up inside her...

Because she had just heard Lu Shidi say that she was his girlfriend.

Aki asked, "Where shall we meet? In front of the movie theater?"

Lu Mingfei replied, "I'll pick you up from the Regent Hotel; I'm afraid you won't know the way."

"That's fine, but what if Professor Guderian and the others see us?"

"It's alright if he saw it. It's perfectly normal for a junior brother to come and catch up with his senior sister, isn't it?"

"That's true."

The date was decided happily, and the two agreed to meet downstairs at the Regent Hotel an hour later.

Since it would take quite a while to get from Xiaotiannv's house to the Regent Hotel by taxi, Lu Mingfei quickly washed up and prepared to go out.

Stepping out of the room, Xia Mi and Erii were playing a game in the living room. Xia Mi was nestled next to Erii, their heads close together, seemingly engrossed in a handheld game. So absorbed in their game that they didn't even notice Lu Mingfei walking up behind them.

"I told you to choose the first option. Now, does this mean we're heading into a bad end again?" Xia Mi's voice was full of confidence.

Erii shook her head and tapped the screen of the PSP, clearly disagreeing with Natsumi's point of view and having her own opinion.

Lu Mingfei curiously peeked over and through the gap between the two cute little heads, he caught a glimpse of the PSP handheld screen.

What came into view was yet another extremely erotic scene. A red-haired girl exposed her chest and was completely open with the male protagonist.

Lu Mingfei recognized the character as Ebihara Minase, one of the heroines in *Guan Le Ren Qu! ~The Bonds of Melody~*. This game is also one of Yuzuriha's classic titles. The current strategy CG indeed indicates that they've entered one of Ebihara Minase's bad endings.

I really miss those days when Lu Mingze would go out for tutoring, and I would secretly play visual novels on my uncle's old laptop in my room on weekend afternoons.

"..."

No, this isn't the time to reminisce about those things. Why is Erii playing visual novels again?!
Come to think of it, he remembered seeing Erii playing "Doukyuusei" yesterday, wasn't she also trying to romance a red-haired character? Had she already finished "Doukyuusei" so quickly?

Lu Mingfei tapped Xia Mi on the head. Xia Mi winced in pain, clutching her head, and turned around, baring her fangs.

"Senior brother, what are you doing!"

"What do you want me to do?" Lu Mingfei withdrew his hand. "Wasn't last night's 'lesson' enough?"

Thinking of Lu Mingfei's strong support last night, Xia Mi wilted again and immediately concealed her fangs: "This, this time it has nothing to do with me. I didn't help Erii download this game, Erii downloaded it herself."

Did Erii download it herself?
Lu Mingfei paused for a moment, then turned to look at Erii. The underworld princess clutched her PSP game console to her chest expressionlessly, as if afraid Lu Mingfei would confiscate it again, like a kitten guarding its food.

...Eri can actually find galgame resources on her own now?

If it weren't for the fact that he had to go on a date with Aki soon, Lu Mingfei would definitely have punished Xia Mi properly.

Look how badly they've corrupted Erii, who was supposed to be so well-behaved and adorable...!
