Dragon Raja: Lu Mingfei Returns from Japan

"So that's your childhood sweetheart?"

For some reason, Lu Mingfei always felt that there was a hidden danger lurking in this seemingly ordinary sentence.

However, from an outsider's perspective, this lie is indeed a bit outrageous. The "childhood friend who suddenly appears" trope seems to only be seen in harem anime.

It's really a bit unreasonable that two childhood sweethearts suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

"I guess so?" Lu Mingfei scratched his neck.

"When I first met you at the internet cafe, I thought you were just one of those typical internet-addicted losers in class."

Su Xiaoqiang, with arms outstretched like a swan, walked slightly ahead of Lu Mingfei and said:

"I didn't expect your family to be quite extraordinary..."

Su Xiaoqiang paused for a moment, then continued, "Also, you're quite something yourself."

Lu Mingfei realized that the little fairy was too proud to say it directly, so she was praising him indirectly. Suddenly, a thought of teasing her arose in his mind.

So you're praising me?

"Pah, pah, pah, stop being so narcissistic!" Su Xiaoqiang suddenly turned around and walked backwards on the balance beam, sticking out her tongue and making a face at the same time.

"Hey!" Lu Mingfei quickly reminded him, "You're going to fall easily like that."

"Don't worry, I walk like this all the time." Su Xiaoqiang confidently walked backwards. "Although I've never told anyone, I'm actually quite good at dancing."

The words had barely left her lips when a gasp suddenly rang out from the quiet lawn. The little fairy, who had just made her vow a moment ago, decisively missed a step on the edge of the fence. She stumbled and fell forward.

She collapsed into the arms of Lu Mingfei, who rushed to her aid.

The scents of Su Xiaoqiang and Lu Mingfei's perfumes mingled in the ambiguous air, irresistible to both men and women. Their eyes met, and their faces flushed in the moonlight, perhaps because the dance they had just performed was too intense, leaving them not fully recovered.

Su Xiaoqiang's arms were wrapped around Lu Mingfei's shoulders and the back of his neck, while Lu Mingfei rested his hand on Su Xiaoqiang's waist. Their faces were so close that they could feel each other's breath and even see their own reflections in each other's pupils.

Lu Mingfei never expected that such a classic romantic comedy scene would one day happen to him. He was stunned for a moment and just stared blankly at Su Xiaoqiang.

However, the classic romantic comedy scene goes far beyond that; someone witnessed everything from a dozen meters away.

Liu Miaomiao stood frozen in place, experiencing for the first time what it felt like to be "in an ice cellar." She felt that her hands and feet had never been so cold, and even breathing was extremely difficult, as if the oxygen around her had been suddenly sucked out.

Once Liu Miaomiao gets through this hurdle, everything will be sweet. Everyone, please be patient >.<

Chapter 157 Slaying the Dragon King

The salon was great, and meeting a pianist she had admired for many years should have made her very happy, but for some reason, Liu Miaomiao just couldn't feel that way.

Using the excuse of going to the restroom, Liu Miaomiao left the salon and went straight downstairs, intending to take a walk in the hotel area to clear her head. As she circled around to the flowerbeds, she spotted two familiar figures.

Liu Miaomiao was somewhat surprised. While she was still wondering why the two people were here, she saw their figures suddenly overlap.

Su Xiaoqiang wrapped her arms around Lu Mingfei's neck, while Lu Mingfei's hand reached behind Su Xiaoqiang. In a romance film, this would certainly be a sweet and delightful scene for the audience.

Liu Miaomiao felt she had never felt so cold, nor had she ever been so calm. After a few deep breaths, almost to the point of oxygen deprivation, she turned around and left silently.

……

An unexpected incident brought a rather ambiguous ending to tonight's banquet. Even the driver, Uncle Li, sensed the strange atmosphere between Lu Mingfei and Su Xiaoqiang in the car.

Lu Mingfei was alright; he could chat and laugh with her and even bring up some topics. It was mainly her young lady who seemed very nervous sitting there. She would tremble violently at the slightest movement from Lu Mingfei, as if she had been tickled.

The car stopped at the entrance of Lu Mingfei's residential compound. Lu Mingfei pushed open the door and got out, then immediately stood by the door and turned back to ask:

"Little goddess?"

“Z…” Su Xiaoqiang’s body stiffened abruptly, and she almost bit her tongue. “What’s wrong?”

"When am I returning this suit to you?" Lu Mingfei pointed to his own clothes.

"Oh……"

Actually, if it were Su Xiaoqiang's own thing, she probably would have just waved it over and given it to Lu Mingfei. But this suit belonged to her old man, and although she hadn't seen him wear it in a long time, Su Xiaoqiang still felt it wasn't quite right to give it to the old man.

"Give it to me when I go to school the day after tomorrow," Su Xiaoqiang said.

"Little Fairy, are you kidding me? We get a holiday for National Day the day after tomorrow."

Oh right, next week is the National Day holiday, so does that mean I'll have to wait more than a week to see this guy?

Wait, why did I have to see this guy?

"Then give it to me next week, there's no rush anyway," Su Xiaoqiang suddenly said irritably.

Lu Mingfei probably knew why Su Xiaoqiang's emotions were suddenly unstable. Although she was usually decisive and efficient, she was still a young girl and easily embarrassed. When he hugged the little fairy, although his heart raced a little, he had trained in a male escort club and quickly regained his composure.

Just recalling that scene from not long ago, the little fairy's beautiful face was so close, her eyeshadow sparkling, her lips painted with high-end lipstick pink and glossy, the feeling of kissing her was probably as soft as the little fairy herself in my arms.

Then he was pushed away by the little fairy.

Saying I was pushed flying is a bit of an exaggeration, but I was indeed pushed back several steps, stumbled, lost my balance, and fell onto the grass. I never expected such a slender and flexible body to have such great strength.

The Audi A8 disappeared into the night. Lu Mingfei returned home, and sure enough, Jiu De Mai was no longer there.

Xia Mi still hadn't woken up. If Lu Mingfei hadn't touched Xia Mi's neck every day and felt that she still had a heartbeat, he would have suspected that Xia Mi was already dead.

If she still doesn't wake up in a couple of days, should I call Lu Mingze out to take Xiaolongnu's pulse?

……

The departure of Shude Mai has both advantages and disadvantages.

The downside is that I won't be able to see those long legs when I get home every night, but the upside is that I finally don't have to sleep on the sofa anymore.

Lu Mingfei wondered if he should add a bed to the other empty room, otherwise if this happened again, he would have to sleep on the sofa again.

After taking a shower, Lu Mingfei returned to his long-missed room.

The moment he slipped into bed, a faint, sweet fragrance wafted over. Mai had only slept in her room for two or three days, yet the bed smelled strangely wonderful. In that instant, he was reminded of that beautiful body curve and those passionate French kisses.

"Oh shit!"

Lu Mingfei cursed under his breath, Guan Yu's sinister intentions were starting to stir.

How is he supposed to sleep?

……

Under the bright sunshine, Lu Mingfei opened his sleepy eyes and groggily pushed open the bedroom door. Last night, he had slept soundly in the fragrant blankets, barely managing to fall asleep after half the night, but the scenes in his dreams were also quite indescribable, keeping him up all night.

"Good morning, senior brother." Xia Mi, who was sitting cross-legged on the sofa watching TV, greeted him without looking up.

"morning."

Lu Mingfei yawned and slipped into the bathroom to wash up. He picked up his toothbrush, squeezed out toothpaste, and had just finished brushing half of his teeth when he suddenly realized something was wrong. He quickly peeked out of the bathroom door to check carefully.

"You're awake?" Lu Mingfei asked, his mouth full of toothpaste foam.

"Otherwise what? Do you think I'm dreaming and talking to you right now?"

Lu Mingfei quickly rinsed the foam from his mouth and then sat down next to Xia Mi in the living room. She was still wearing the same shirt that was too loose for her, revealing her slender and beautiful hands and feet. Her eyes, nose, and mouth were all normal; no part of her was missing.

Xia Mi pouted, feeling seriously displeased with the way Lu Mingfei was scrutinizing her as if she were an animal.

"Do you know how long you slept?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"I know." Xia Mi gestured towards the TV. "Four days, the time is on TV."

Lu Mingfei originally wanted to say, "Even a pig can't sleep as well as you," but then he realized that such a statement might be a bit too offensive to his beautiful junior sister, Little Dragon Girl.

Xia Mi, seeing Lu Mingfei's eager mouth, roughly knew what kind of nonsense he wanted to say.

"Four days may indeed be a bit long for humans. But for dragons, it's just a nap time."

Xia Mi shrugged. "Our lifespan is often a thousand years. After every great battle, we need to spend a long time sleeping to accumulate enough energy to heal our injuries."

Lu Mingfei suddenly recalled Zhuangzi's "Free and Easy Wandering," which he had studied in school. It said that in ancient times there was a great tree called Chun, whose spring lasted eight thousand years and whose autumn lasted eight thousand years. To dragons, the human race, apart from possessing considerable intelligence, was essentially just a rather short-lived race.

It is said that even dragon kings can prolong their lives by laying eggs, and the hatching of an egg takes hundreds of years. During those hundreds of years, countless flowers bloom and wither, and the world undergoes tremendous changes. A certain period of human history, both glorious and tragic, may have passed quietly by in a few autumn dreams.

"The battle with Odin took a lot of my energy. That's why I slept a little longer this time."

Xia Mi said calmly, "His Gungnir Spear is a world-destroying alchemical weapon, possessing the power to slay dragon kings. Among my brothers and sisters, I am not very strong. Just resisting the alchemical laws of this spear is already a struggle. So I am very weak right now."

"How weak are you?" Lu Mingfei suddenly asked.

"Is my strength now about the same as Liu Miaomiao's?"

Xia Mi blinked, her eyes suddenly brightening, and her expression returned to that of a sweet, girlish one. "So, if you want to seduce me, you'd better seize this opportunity."

Lu Mingfei rolled his eyes at her, then suddenly reached out his hand towards her. Xia Mi was stunned. She had only intended to play a lighthearted joke on Lu Mingfei, but she hadn't expected him to actually reach out his hand to her.

She instinctively shrank back, but there was no way to avoid it on the narrow sofa, so she could only close her eyes tightly.

Then I felt a hand land on my head and rub it like I was petting a cat.

Xia Mi immediately revealed her little tiger teeth, her eyes flashing with a fierce light while she let out a comfortable hum.

This scene felt somewhat unreal; Jormungandr, the mighty king of the earth and mountains, was purring like a cat under his caresses. The contradictory expression of the little dragon girl—squinting her eyes and baring her teeth fiercely—wasn't particularly menacing, yet it possessed a certain irresistible power against male adversaries.

Looking at Xia Mi's expression, Lu Mingfei suddenly felt that petting the Dragon King wasn't so different from petting a cat. However, the feeling of doing whatever he wanted with the Dragon King was actually quite nice.

However, it seems that Xia Mi's statement that she currently lacks power is indeed true. She looks exactly like an ordinary human girl now. It's estimated that just fighting against the Gungnir spear exhausted all her strength.

“You’re so weak right now, what if Odin attacks you again?” Lu Mingfei asked.

"Don't worry, he's not feeling so good either. The Gungnir Spear is to him what a swordsman's sword is. Without a sword, a swordsman's strength will be severely weakened. In addition, he is already in a weakened state for some reason, so even he doesn't dare to show himself easily right now."

As Xia Mi was speaking, she suddenly slapped Lu Mingfei's hand away as if she were getting a chill.

"Damn it! Senior brother, have you rubbed me enough yet?! Stop treating me like a child!" Xia Mi scratched her hair.

Lu Mingfei reluctantly withdrew his hand, thinking to himself, "If you're not a child, then who is? You haven't even developed yet."

"By the way, are you hungry after sleeping for so long? Do you want to eat something?" Lu Mingfei suddenly asked. He glanced at the time on the TV; it was eleven o'clock, which was about lunchtime.

Xia Mi looked up and glared at him.

Lu Mingfei was taken aback. Hadn't he already stopped masturbating her? Or had he said something wrong again? But he didn't seem to have said anything particularly taboo.

While he was pondering this, he saw Xia Mi suddenly grab his collar.

"Senior brother, are you really going to let junior sister go out wearing this outfit?" Xia Mi clenched her fist.

Lu Mingfei then realized that Xia Mi's outfit was indeed inconvenient for going out. Her clothes had been torn in the battle. She was currently only wearing a shirt, with nothing underneath, the overly long hem acting as a skirt to cover her crossed thighs. Since she wasn't wearing anything underneath, that meant she wasn't wearing anything underneath either.

Because he had gotten used to seeing it over the past few days, Lu Mingfei didn't think there was anything wrong with Xia Mi's outfit. It was only after Xia Mi pointed it out that he suddenly realized that something was indeed not quite right.
