The sunny boy in Cardcaptor Sakura

Chapter 590 Storytelling

Geumine Shrine.

I don’t know if it’s because it’s a weekday, but there’s no one else inside the shrine at the moment. Only huge cherry trees stand majestically there.

Suddenly, a breeze blew by, and the rustling sound of leaves was heard.

Along with this sudden rustling sound, a dark hole appeared in the trunk of the cherry tree without any warning, and then several figures appeared in the hole.

As more and more figures walked out, the black hole gradually shrank and finally disappeared into the trunk of the cherry tree, turning into a transparent card.

After casually taking the floating card, Sakura looked around and saw that they were still in Tsukimine Shrine. She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It seems that we are back. It seems that not too much time has passed in this world since we left."

“After all, they are two worlds, so the speed of time flowing in the two worlds should be different.” Li Xiaolang also looked around and replied.

Chiyo looked at the Tsukimine Shrine, which was exactly the same as it was a few years ago, and tugged at Xia Yu's sleeve and asked, "Have we returned to the original world?"

"Well, I'm back."

Xia Yu turned around and looked at the huge cherry tree behind him. Although the shrine had not changed much and the cherry tree had hardly changed, but according to the perception of the tree card ability, after a few years, the cherry tree behind him did show some signs of time.

Moreover, the vague sense of disharmony also disappeared, indicating that they had returned to their original world.

Hearing Xia Yu say it so confidently, Xiaoying and the others were completely relieved. They still believed in Xia Yu's judgment.

"Um, Xia-san..."

After hesitating for a few seconds, Xiaoying couldn't help but come to Xia Yu and asked shyly, "Can you delete that video?"

"Video? What video?" Seeing Xiaoying's embarrassed look, Xia Yu laughed and pretended to be stupid.

"Can you delete the video of me introducing myself in elementary school that you filmed? Please."

"Well-"

Xia Yu deliberately stretched out his voice, facing Xiaoying's expectant gaze, and shook his head firmly: "No, this is a rare video, how can it be deleted so easily?"

"Woo..."

Sakura cried in her heart, she knew it, even though she had already guessed the answer, she still wanted to ask without giving up.

Now that I have received a definite answer, the little hope in my heart has completely disappeared. That's right, according to Xia's personality, he will definitely treasure this kind of video and will not delete it so easily.

"But it's not impossible for me to delete it, as long as you, Sakura, agree to one of my requests." Xia Yu suddenly changed the subject and smiled.

"any request?"

Hearing that there was still hope, Sakura excitedly asked, saying that she would agree to any request as long as the shameful video could be deleted.

"Don't worry, it's not a strange request. As long as Xiaoying can say the lines in the video with full momentum and let me film it, I will delete the video."

"..."

Xiaoying was stunned for a moment when she heard this, puffed up her cheeks and glared at Xia Yu and said, "Xia classmate, am I a fool in your eyes?"

"how you said that?"

"…Although I feel a little sorry for saying this, Xia, I always feel that after you filmed my video, you would definitely cheat. Not only would you not delete the video of my childhood, but you would also collect both of my videos."

"That way, you can get two videos of me at different ages saying the same embarrassing lines. You must have this in mind, right?"

"hiss--"

After listening to Xiaoying's convincing reasoning, Xia Yu's eyes widened slightly, and he was extremely surprised.

Is this still Sakura? When did Sakura become so smart? She could actually guess his plan right away!

Li Xiaolang, who had listened to the entire process, couldn't help but feel relieved.

Fortunately, fortunately, Sakura saw through the guy's dark plan and did not fall for it.

After Xia Yu made that request, he had already decided to expose the other party's intention right now, even if it meant being retaliated against in the future. However, he didn't expect that Xiaoying could see it herself. It seems that not only he has grown, but Xiaoying has grown as well.

Well... this growth is weird, and it always makes me feel a little depressed.

Seeing that Xia Yu failed to successfully fool Xiaoying, Zhishi suppressed his smile, reached out and patted Xia Yu on the shoulder and said: "It seems that you can't deceive Xiaoying anymore, Xia Jun."

"..."

"What? What kind of words are these?"

Although his dark plan was exposed, it was just a thought, and it had not been implemented yet. Is it wrong to just think about it?
A gentleman is judged by deeds rather than by his heart, and Xia is indeed a gentleman.

Xia Yu looked at Xiaoying with great sorrow, holding his chest and said sadly: "Xiaoying, is this how you see me? It's so sad, is this how I am in your eyes?"

"Ok!"

Puff-!
The affirmative answer without hesitation instantly stabbed Xia Yu in the heart like a sharp knife.

"..."

It's over, Sakura has completely turned into a white-cut black, that stupid and foolish Sakura no longer exists.

Xia Yu suddenly recalled what Xiao Ke said to Xiao Ying in the previous world. He couldn't help but look at Xiao Ying and said, "I also think that Xiao Ying, you don't have to grow up so fast."

"I've known you for several years, even the dumbest person wouldn't be fooled..."

Xiaoying complained quietly, and realized that Xia Yu would definitely not delete the video, so she had no choice but to accept it.

Think about it in a positive way, at least the girl in that video is not her current self, but her as a child in another world.

Although it felt a bit like self-deception, it made her feel better after all. She just felt a little sorry for herself in another world. The other party probably wanted her to help delete the video.

I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do.

After this little episode, everyone chatted for a while at the Yuefeng Shrine, then parted ways and went back to their homes.

After all, it was not the weekend and they had classes tomorrow. They came to Yuefeng Shrine after school today. It was already dusk and very late.

Nothing strange happened on the way home and I got home smoothly.

Night, summer residence.

Xia Yu's bedroom.

"What do you think these two cards are good for? Among the three transparent cards I got today, it seems that only this past card is somewhat useful. After all, it can travel through time and space."

Xia Yu was lying on the bed, holding three transparent cards in his hand and looking at them in front of his eyes. These three transparent cards were the promises, choices and past that Xiaoying had obtained today.

Before everyone left, he borrowed the three cards from Sakura, intending to analyze them first.

Unlike the easy-to-understand Clow Cards, the transparent cards are mostly based on events, and your function cannot be guessed just by looking at the name.

Just like the promises and choices in the three cards today, he had no idea what they meant by them. He simply had a collecting habit and would feel uncomfortable if he didn't analyze them.

"I don't know. Do we still need to analyze these two cards?" Hearing his master's question, Xiao Xi, who was lying on the desk reading a novel, looked up and asked.

"Of course we have to analyze it. After all, if we analyze it, we have to analyze the whole set. It always feels a bit awkward to leave one or two unanalyzed."

While Xia Yu responded, he casually put the three transparent cards in his hand together and threw them in front of Xiao Xi: "Analyze it, who cares? Anyway, you will know what it is useful for after analyzing it."

"Order!"

After receiving the order, Xiao Xi answered while picking up the transparent card on the top with his short hands, and then put it into the system space to start analyzing it. Seeing that Xiao Xi had already taken action, Xia Yu lay flat on the bed, with his hands on the back of his head, staring at the ceiling with his eyes blankly.

Today's fantastic encounter made him subconsciously think divergently, and he wondered whether he also had equivalents in other worlds.

If there are indeed isotopes, then in which worlds are his isotopes in? Or did his isotopes also travel through time?

"Ok?"

Just as Xia Yu was staring at the ceiling and thinking, he suddenly noticed that his cell phone was vibrating. Someone was calling.

As a person who habitually mutes his phone, he answers calls purely based on fate. If he meets the person, he will answer. If not, he won't answer. Zhishi often nags him about this.

Finally he had to compromise and changed the silent mode to vibrate, which increased his chances of answering the call.

As for why he insisted on turning off the ringtone of his cell phone, he could only say that old habits were not so easy to correct. He had the habit of silencing his cell phone before he traveled through time, and it has continued to this day.

"Why did you call me at night? You couldn't sleep and wanted me to tell you a bedtime story?" As the call was connected, Xia Yu raised the phone and chuckled.

"Hehe~ I really can't sleep, but I don't need Xia Jun to tell me a story."

Zhi Shi's voice rang out from the phone. She smiled at first, then said, "I was just thinking about myself in another world. Do you think she will be as happy as me in the future?"

"Well, to be honest, it's definitely impossible."

Xia Yu said narcissistically: "After all, there is only one person as good as me in the whole world, and now you have got me, so the happiest Zhishi can only be you."

"Oh my, come to think of it, I am really lucky."

Zhishi smiled when she heard that, but after she finished laughing, she was silent for a few seconds, and then she said again: "You know that's not what I want to ask, Xia Jun, your girlfriend is depressed right now, don't you plan to say something to comfort her girlfriend?"

"Well... in that case, let me tell you a story."

"story?"

"Yes, this is the story of Princess Chiyo. Remember the story of the Tsubasa Chronicle that I told you before?"

"I remember."

"Okay, this story begins with the shrine princess of Shirasagi Castle in Japan..."

Under the cover of night, the boy told the girl the story of another world over the phone. As the story unfolded, another fantasy world gradually became clear in the girl's mind.

After a long time, it was already three o'clock in the night.

"This is the story of a princess and a ninja, how is it? The princess sent the ninja to another world in order to let him understand what true strength is. In order to return to his master, the ninja and his friends experienced different worlds one after another."

After slowly finishing telling the story of Princess Chishi and Heigang, Xia Yu let out a breath, chuckled and asked Chishi on the other end of the phone.

There was silence on the other end of the line for a moment before someone answered, "Thank you, Xia Jun. I understand what you mean."

"You want to tell me that everyone is unique and has their own special person, just like I met you and Princess Zhishi met Heigang, right?"

Hearing that Zhishi understood what he meant, Xia Yu smiled and said, "Yes, so you don't have to think too much about your other self. Although you have the same face and name, you are not the same person. You have already found your own happiness, and she will get her own happiness sooner or later."

"Um...thank you."

"Why are you thanking me? We are going to be together for the rest of our lives. It would be awkward to say thank you."

"Haha~ Then I won't say thank you next time."

"That's it. It's late now. Time to go to bed. Good night, Tomoyo."

"Good night, Xia Jun~"

The next day, early in the morning.

"Good morning!"

At Tomoeda Junior High School, Sakura walked into the classroom full of energy as always and greeted her friends in the classroom.

"Good morning, Sakura..."

Seeing Sakura coming to the classroom, Tomoyo, who was lying on the desk, raised her head and responded to Sakura weakly.

"Wow - Tomoyo, you have such heavy dark circles under your eyes. Didn't you sleep well last night?" Hearing the call, Sakura turned her head and was startled.

I saw that Chiyo, who greeted her, had two faint dark circles under her eyes. Although they were not obvious, it was obvious that Chiyo did not sleep well last night.

"Well... I was so engrossed in the story that I didn't get enough sleep."

Zhishi smiled helplessly. Xia Yu had been telling stories until half the night last night, which caused both of them to stay up late. Then when they woke up early in the morning, she inevitably had dark circles around her eyes.

"What story is so fascinating? It makes you, Tomoyo, stay up late too." Sakura asked curiously after hearing Tomoyo's answer.

Chise is a very regular person, and I didn't expect that she would stay up late to listen to stories. This is a little hard to imagine for her.

"Well..."

Tomoyo thought about last night's story and didn't know how to explain it to Sakura. Should she say that she heard Xia Jun telling her another story about herself?

How should I put it? The master-servant relationship between Princess Tomoyo and Kuroko is indeed impressive.

Hmm...got it!
Zhi Shi suddenly had an idea and said with a smile: "It's not a special story, it's mainly because of the storyteller that I couldn't help but keep listening."

"Eh? Who's telling a story?"

Sakura became curious when she heard that, and Tomoyo smiled and replied, "It was Xia-kun. I couldn't sleep last night, so I called him to chat, and he told me bedtime stories all night."

"But it seems that his bedtime story doesn't make me fall asleep quickly. I accidentally listened to it very late, so I didn't sleep well."

"So this is ah."

Sakura felt envious. The person she liked told her a bedtime story. If Syaoran told her a bedtime story...

Woo...she might not be able to sleep either.

Sakura subconsciously felt a little shy because of her fantasy, but at the same time she was also vaguely looking forward to it. How about trying it at night? Let Syaoran tell her a bedtime story or something?

Seeing that Sakura stopped asking questions because she was shy, Tomoyo's lips curled up slightly and he smiled secretly in his heart.

"Morning, everyone!"

Not long after, Xia Yu also entered the classroom, but he was as energetic as ever, and didn't look like he had been staying up late at all.

After sitting back in his seat, Xia Yu also noticed Zhishi's dark circles. Seeing Zhishi looking somewhat tired, he couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

"I'm sorry, Tomoyo, I accidentally talked so late and made you stay up late."

"it does not matter."

Zhishi shook his head slightly and smiled, "That's what I wanted to hear, so don't worry about it. If you want to blame someone, blame me."

"How can I blame you? I didn't notice it. After all, with my physique, staying up late is not a big deal, but you can't."

As Xia Yu spoke, he reached out to help Zhishi massage the area around his eye sockets: "Let me help you massage and get rid of the dark circles first. It's not good to have dark circles on your fair and tender face."

"Ah."
