Pokémon: Starting as a Farmer Instead of a Trainer

Chapter 275 I really didn't mean to watch you take a shower (Seeking monthly votes)

After complaining, Xiao Zhao sighed softly, stood up, and gently tugged at her collar. She also felt that her clothes were a bit too conservative, and she didn't even seem like a girl of this era.

Should she dress more lightly? She really wants to try wearing a dress, but she hates being looked at differently by others.

"I guess I should just forget about it... He won't mind my style of dress anyway."

Xiao Zhao gently shook her head, then glanced at Zoroya, who was chasing Meltan not far away, and waved her hand, calling softly, "Stop playing for now, come take a shower~"

"Woo~"

Soloa responded, wanting to play a little longer, so Xiao Zhao decided to take it for a bath later, and then looked at Ponpon who was mopping the floor.

"Ponpon, want to go take a bath together?"

"Hmm?"

Ponpo stopped what she was doing and noticed some dirt and dust on her cloak. It was left over from when she helped Tengi Snake train that morning, and it was indeed a bit dirty.

"Mmm~"

Okay then~

Ponpo nodded gently, but Mingyou, who was in sync with its feelings and waiting for Mingyou to log off at midnight to have a late-night snack, was stunned.

What the hell?

Not sleeping together, but showering together?

Wait a minute... this won't do!

Mingyou panicked instantly. He was definitely not that kind of person; he would never do something that crossed his bottom line.

So he hurriedly prepared to log off, but at that moment he suddenly discovered that no matter how he tried to interrupt the synchronization, he could not succeed, just like when he participated in a game and the logout button was removed.

"What...what's going on?"

Mingyou was a little confused. This shouldn't be the case. She clearly logged off like this when she was syncing with Meltan yesterday. Could it be that she and Ponpo had been syncing for too long and something went wrong? Or was there some other reason?

Why did this problem have to happen at this time?!

At this moment, he was completely panicked and no longer had time to think about many things. Xiao Zhao, who had already made preparations for possibly staying overnight, took out the clothes to change into and walked towards the bathroom with Peng Peng.

"Oh no! Did it have to be this fast?!"

Mingyou never expected her to head straight for the bathroom. Give me some time!

As the bathroom door gently closed and locked, he already knew it was too late...

"Mmm~"

Xiao Zhao let her long hair, which had been tied up, fall loose as she hummed a little tune, which was the same one that Mingyou had played on her harmonica earlier: "Summer and Weibai Town".

"Mmm~"

Ponpo, standing beside her, swayed gently to the rhythm and hummed along.

Listening to the little tune, Xiao Zhao smiled and said, "You like it too? Let Mingyou play it on the harmonica again another day. I feel like he probably knows a lot of nice tunes. Let him play them all."

"Mmm~"

"Haha, go and run the hot water first."

"Mmm~"

Ponpo nodded gently and ran to the side, while Xiaozhao stood in place, skillfully taking off her clothes. Mingyou knew that the opportunity had finally arrived!

"Hurry! Now! The whole village's hope! Press the red button on the synchronizer!"

At this moment, Mingyou couldn't care less about anything else; if she missed this opportunity, it would be gone forever.

But Ponpo, who suddenly heard his voice, froze on the spot, thinking it was a hallucination. It wasn't until Mingyou spoke again that Ponpo finally realized that the voice was coming from her mind.

"Hmm!?"

"What's wrong?"

Hearing Ponpo's questioning voice, Xiao Zhao, who was only wearing her inner photo, subconsciously looked over and reached out to unfasten her bra.

The moment she took off her white bra, Ponpo turned around and looked in this direction, telling her what she had heard. Mingyou, who was about to remind her not to tell anyone, followed Ponpo's gaze, and her voice stopped abruptly, her mind seemingly going blank for a moment.

So white... wait!

So cute... but no, that's not quite right!

Her figure is getting better and better...

Mingyou, being such an innocent young man, couldn't resist this. He admitted that he wasn't doing it willingly and didn't want to cross any lines, but he simply couldn't avoid her gaze.

"Huh? Mingyou's voice?"

Hearing Ponpo's response, Xiao Zhao, completely unaware of anything amiss, looked puzzled and murmured, "He told you to... turn off the synchronizer? Wait, this synchronizer... could it be...!"

"Oh no! I should have said game console!"

Mingyou snapped back to reality, revealing her panic, but it was too late. Ponpo took out the synchronizer from her cloak, indicating that this was probably what she was talking about.

"..."

Xiao Zhao fell silent, looking at the somewhat familiar synchronizer in Ponpo's hand. Having been commissioned to participate in the first-generation synchronizer experimental test, how could she not recognize this prop?

So, there's this guy who slept all day without eating or drinking, causing everyone a lot of worry...

Connecting the dots, Xiao Zhao instantly realized the truth. Noticing her exposed upper body, she quickly covered her chest, her expression one of utter panic, her face flushed red, whether from embarrassment or anger, she gritted her teeth and screamed.

"Naraka Yu!!!"

"Hmm?"

Ponpo tilted her head, what's wrong?

A moment later, Xiao Zhao, now dressed again, rushed into Ming You's room. Looking at the person who had just woken up on the bed, her body trembled slightly, her hands clenched into fists, her eyes glistening with tears. She bit her lip and questioned, "You... you saw everything, didn't you?!"

"Uh-huh."

Mingyou didn't dare to look at the other person, but he still mustered up the courage to admit that even if it wasn't voluntary, he had indeed crossed the line and violated the other person's privacy.

Seeing Mingyou admit it without hesitation, Xiaozhao was angry, but her face was full of disappointment. She never dared to imagine that the other party would do such a thing, but now...

"Shrimp-headed guy!"

Snapped--

Mingyou did not dodge and did indeed take a slap from Xiaozhao. Although she had prepared herself mentally, she did not feel any pain.

"Um?"

He came to his senses with a look of surprise, while Xiao Zhao simply placed her hand lightly on his face without applying any force.

"Aren't you... going to hit me?"

"You wish!"

Xiao Zhao snorted, grabbed his face, and stared at him with a resentful expression. She said in a low voice, "Do you know how worried everyone was about you! And yet you still had time to do this kind of thing. Today… I'm truly disappointed in you!"

"Feel sorry……"

"You should go and talk to Ponpo and the others!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Mingyou and she looked towards the doorway. Because of the sudden commotion, Ponpo and the others were all looking there, somewhat at a loss.

Xiao Zhao wasn't angry that he was spying on her, because she knew Mingyou would never do such a thing; otherwise, he would have had too many opportunities when she lived in the manor.

What angered her was this deceptive behavior. Mingyou had tricked everyone with the synchronizer, making Ponpon and the others worry, while Mingyou herself remained indifferent as a bystander.

"Hmm..."

Ponpo stood there dumbfounded. Now it finally understood why Mingyou had been lying on the board all day – it hadn't expected that she was inside its own body.

Although it doesn't really care, as long as Mingyou is alright, Sister Xiaozhao seems quite angry about the other party's behavior.

Should we try to persuade them?

Ponpo thought to herself...

"This time it's my fault, I'm sorry for making everyone worry, I never expected it to turn out like this..."

With Xiao Zhao pinching his face, Mingyou sincerely apologized to everyone, although Zhenyi and the others didn't know why he was apologizing.

It wasn't until Mingyou explained about the synchronizer that they finally realized that Tengteng Snake and Zhenyifa were the most panicked ones. Their request for help from Ponpon had been discovered.

"Candy..."

"Mengmeng..."

Riolu and Garchomp were already used to Meiyu causing trouble every few days, while Meloetta breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Meiyu was alright.

Seeing that Mingyou's apology was sincere, Xiaozhao let go of him and let Ponpo and the others go out first, as she had something to say to Mingyou alone.

After the door closed again, she sighed softly, handed the synchronizer to Mingyou, and said, "Take it back. Don't do this kind of thing again next time. If you want to help Teacher Mi with his experiments, everyone will cooperate. Don't do it secretly anymore."

"I just wanted to experience what Popo would do all day..."

"It would have been good if you had told me. If you want me to keep it a secret, I will definitely help you. Don't think it's too much trouble for me; I'll smooth things over for you."

Xiao Zhao sat on the edge of the bed, now calmed down. She spent a little time listening to Ming You recount how she felt after experiencing being a Ponpo for a whole day.

"That's it, I really didn't mean to watch you shower, it's just that the synchronizer suddenly..."

"Let's not talk about this!"

Mentioning this, Xiao Zhao's face flushed slightly again. She looked away and muttered in a very soft voice, "You don't even dare to confess to me, how could you possibly do something like this? You're such a dork..."

"What did you say?"

"It's nothing..." Xiao Zhao quickly changed the subject, saying, "It's just that final exams start the day after tomorrow, and Danyu will be back then. After their exams, do you have any plans?"

"Let's go to Ripple Town. Cynthia is there. She's the Sinnoh champion and has been invited to the opening ceremony of the Junior Cup. We can stay with her to prepare for the competition."

"Hmm... I'll leave it to you."

Xiao Zhao didn't have many opinions. She turned to the side and noticed that Ming You still looked apologetic towards her. She also felt that she had gone a bit too far tonight and shouldn't have been so impulsive.

But when it came to Mingyou, she always inexplicably couldn't stay calm. So she looked away and said softly, "You haven't eaten all day. I'll make you a midnight snack. What do you want to eat tonight?"

"Hmm... the cookies you made."

Mingyou was still thinking about this, and Xiaozhao immediately understood. The other person must have been present last night, so she smiled calmly, stood up, and said, "No problem, then please wait a moment!"

"Do you need my help? I'd really like to learn how you make desserts."

"No problem, but can you learn it?"

Xiao Zhao responded irritably, feeling as if the pastry master was laughing at her for not knowing how to make desserts.

Then their eyes met, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud, just like Mingyou.

The two were always like this; they might argue from time to time, but they would always laugh it off in the end, because the time they spent together and the memories they created had unknowingly allowed them to understand each other better...
