A farming master in Stardew Valley

Isn’t that what Chapter 32 means?

If he said yes, the misunderstanding might deepen, but if he said no, it would be easy to offend people, because Leon noticed that Emily at the bar was also looking at him at this moment.

So Leon hesitated for a long time, and finally said: “Let’s order according to Willy’s instructions. As for Emily, there is no need to bother her. After all, there are so many guests to take care of.”

"Okay." Gus didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said. Instead, he felt relieved and appreciated that Leon was considerate of Emily. "You're a good guy. I'm optimistic about you."

After saying that, Guts left with a smile, while Leon looked at Guts's back speechlessly, wanting to complain about what the other party thought was good about him?

After Gus left, Willy pulled Leon aside and said, "Emily is a nice girl, and she comes from a wealthy family. Even though she works at the tavern, she does it just to keep herself from getting bored. You have to give her some snacks."

"So why do you think I like Emily? I just think that as people of the same age, we can get along well. I can't just sit here and eat alone without saying anything. That would seem too lonely." Leon looked at Willy's gossipy face and explained helplessly.

"Is that so?" Willy looked a little disappointed when he heard Leon say that, and it was obvious that he regretted not being able to eat the melon.

Leon shook his head, wondering if people became interested in such things as they got older. This was true for Gus and Willy. Fortunately, he and Emily didn't have much interaction, otherwise Leon felt that in a few days everyone in the town would think that he had feelings for Emily.

It is true that Emily is very good, with first-class personality and appearance, and is also a single girl worth pursuing in the game, but for Leon now, he cares more about the farm.

After all, having money is the kingly thing. If you waste a lot of opportunities to make money in order to pursue love at an early age, that is love-brained.

The most important thing is that Emily is not the only single girl in Pelican Town. If he really wants to find a wife, he should also see what other girls are like in real life. As a man, he can't hang himself on a tree, right?

While waiting for the food to be served, Lyon and Willy talked about some issues about fishing. Willy told Lyon everything he knew. While Willy was supplementing Lyon's theoretical knowledge about fishing, time passed.

"You two, this is today's bar special, a dish from the sea. Please enjoy."

Just as Willy was telling Leon how to use lures to attract catfish that appear on rainy days in spring, Emily placed two large plates of food on the table and began to introduce them.

"Thank you." Leon turned his head to look at Emily and nodded in thanks, while Willy closed his mouth and looked at Leon and Emily with an auntie's smile.

"You're welcome. This is my job, isn't it?" Emily shook her head. Then she saw the beer in front of Willy and the empty space in front of Leon except for the dishes that had just been served. She said, "Have a glass of peach juice. It's my treat."

"Uh, no need." Leon refused subconsciously. He had drunk water when he came here and was not thirsty. And to be honest, he had drunk peach juice twice. Once the novelty wore off, he lost interest. For him, peach juice was a little too sweet.

But after saying this, Leon noticed that Emily's face looked a little lost, and he was immediately confused.

If Emily was a wine-tipping agent, her disappointment could be explained, but the other party said he would treat her, and there was no vested interest in the matter, so why would she have such an expression?
It made him seem like he was unromantic, which made Leon realize that something was very wrong. Could it be that Emily, the person involved in the gossip, also felt that he had feelings for her?

Thinking of this, Leon had to add: "Emily, thank you for your kindness, but I drank too much water when I came here, so it's already good enough that I can eat this portion of food. If I give me another glass of juice, I might waste food." After speaking, Leon began to observe Emily's expression. When he saw Emily breathe a sigh of relief after hearing what he said, and her face returned to smile again, Leon's heart tightened, and he felt that he seemed to have guessed right.

"Okay, I'll treat you next time. By the way, I've taken the daffodils you gave me home. They're blooming beautifully in my room. If you have time, you can go and see them." After saying this, Emily trotted away with a red face.

Willy, who was watching the whole process, said to Leon seriously: “Although old Willy has not married, he also had experience in chasing girls when he was young. I can see that Emily has a good impression of you. I don’t believe that you just had a simple exchange?”

“Don’t tease me, I’m confused now.” Leon covered his face and complained: “And how can you tell that she likes me?”

"It's my intuition. Besides, this is the first time I've heard Emily invite a man to her house in such a long time. She lives with her sister and has never invited any man to her house. You are the first one." Willy replied.

"Just to see the flowers," Leon emphasized.

"It's daffodils, right? Don't you know the meaning of daffodils?" Willy asked back.

"Yes, daffodils are considered a symbol of respect and mystery," Leon replied.

"Ah? Shouldn't it be about reliving love, eternal love and beauty?" Willy was stunned when he heard this explanation and retorted subconsciously.

"Is that what you mean?" Leon was also confused. After all, he really didn't understand the language of flowers. A flower might have several different meanings and explanations.

Seeing this, Willy glanced at Leon, then at Emily who was busy at the bar. He just patted Leon's shoulder with a suppressed smile on his face: "Okay, this may be a cognitive misunderstanding, but in Stardew Valley, giving daffodils to people of the same age usually means that I have some feelings for you. Think about it carefully."

Leon rolled his eyes at Willy, then explained: “I gave her Daffodils, and I also told her my own understanding of Daffodils’ words. Logically, she shouldn’t have misunderstood.”

"Perhaps, but don't ignore your own strengths. You're polite and tactful, and you're quite handsome. From what Gus was saying to you just now, I noticed that you seem to be very good at considering things from other people's perspectives. You must know how attractive these qualities are to girls."

Willy complained to Leon earnestly: “If I had your advantages back then, I wouldn’t have to do all the housework by myself now.”

"You old bachelor, just eat your meal obediently and stop making meaningless analyses. These words coming out of your mouth have no credibility at all." Leon finally couldn't stand Willy's teasing anymore and started a personal attack.

But Willy was not angry when he heard this. Instead, he retorted cheerfully: "What's wrong with being an old bachelor? Old bachelors were young once too. These are all words of experience. You have to listen to them."

　I still like chapters ending in even numbers, so I am making up for the fact that I only updated one chapter last time due to some busy schedule.
