Pokémon: Starting as a Farmer Instead of a Trainer

Chapter 395 Confessing His Transmigration Identity to Senior Xiao Zhao (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Mingyou rode up the Milerton, the engine roared, and soared into the sky above the Ghost Mountain. The entire Beishang Township was covered in snow, including the Beishang Center and the tourists in Cuilu Town, all of which were on full display.

This is what it feels like to come home!

Milerton glided over the northern countryside before heading toward the manor.

Currently, the estate only includes part of the villa area and is not covered by the ecological park; the other areas each present their own distinct environment.

From above, the villa, covered in snow, looked just as it always had, except that the snow at the entrance and on the road leading outwards showed signs of having been cleared, and it must have been cleared this morning.

Needless to say...

As Milton descended, the view in front of the villa came into view, and Mingyou's gaze was instantly drawn to the figure sitting in front of the door.

The horned deer was seen sitting in front of the door, enjoying its afternoon nap, while a quiet and dignified young girl sat on its lap, her head slightly lowered. She wore a white knitted hat, and her slender fingers gently lifted strands of her dark gray hair that hung straight down. Her bright eyes, through her glasses, fell on the book on her lap, and her lips were slightly upturned as she immersed herself in the world of the book.

Seemingly hearing the noise from above, the girl placed the bookmark, closed the book, and her smile became even brighter. She slightly raised her eyes to look at the figure descending on Milerton.

"You're back a bit late~"

"After all, a lot has happened."

Mingyou and the girl smiled at each other. Many things didn't need to be said before they met again. The two were so similar that they probably understood each other better than they understood themselves.

Xiao Zhao stood up, took off her glasses, and said softly, "Come in first. I'll go prepare some food for you. Go take a shower and change your clothes. You'll catch a cold wearing such a thin coat in the middle of winter."

"No need to trouble yourself..."

"What, you think I'm a hassle?"

"Haha, it's the same as always."

The long-lost feeling made them both burst into laughter. Mingyou wasn't in a hurry; more than taking a shower and changing, he wanted to talk to the other about what had happened on the trip...

A moment later, Ponpo rode Milton to Green Town to buy groceries, and called Meloetta and the others back. Groundwing called Skybreaker to wander around, while Keldeo looked at the scenery of the manor with great excitement.

Knowing that Mingyou was back, Lucario and the others also started to get busy. They divided the work clearly and took over all the tasks, seemingly to deliberately make time for the two of them to spend together...

Mingyou and Xiaozhao both knew what was going on, but they didn't say anything. They started chatting on the sofa, and he told her everything that had happened to him, without hiding anything.

Upon learning that he had actually gone to the space-time rift, Xiao Zhao, who had traversed it several times before, couldn't help but feel a little worried, because she was very aware of the danger.

She was incredibly surprised when she learned that her inexplicable fall into this world was related to Team Galactic.

"Is that so? Team Galactic... the former research team, has become like this."

Xiao Zhao was once a member of Team Galactic, but back then Team Galactic was just a research team investigating the Pokémon ecology in the Greenland region.

But since it had already happened, she couldn't say anything more. She could only sigh and wonder if it was a coincidence or destiny.

At this moment, upon hearing that Mingyou had been ambushed and fallen into a spacetime rift, Xiaozhao was so anxious that she almost stood up, and even regretted for a moment that she had completely trusted the other party to cause trouble.

"You fell in? How could that be...?"

"It was indeed very dangerous, but if it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't have been able to leave at all."

"what?"

Xiao Zhao was slightly taken aback, her expression full of confusion: "What did I do now...?"

"Ha ha."

Mingyou smiled and explained the situation to her. Xiaozhao hadn't expected that it was through her connection that the Great Lord Shen'ao had saved the other party. It seemed that this was indeed just a coincidence and not some kind of arrangement.

She took out her alpaca phone, a hint of nostalgia flashing in her bright eyes, and said softly, "I didn't expect you to actually meet the Grandmaster Sinnoh. Did you challenge Him?"

"I'm not like you..."

Mingyou said helplessly, but he had a question: Did the Great Lord Sinnoh mention in his words that the other party and Xiaozhao seemed to have some kind of agreement?

At this point, Xiao Zhao paused slightly, then parted her lips slightly: "He promised to take me home, but as you saw, the later part about you helping Him fulfill the promise probably means..."

After a brief pause, Xiao Zhao looked up at Ming You, a slight blush rising on her cheeks, and continued, "It must be you who gave me a new home~"

"..."

Feeling the girl's innocent gaze, Mingyou was slightly lost in thought, but her tone became quite heavy: "But in that case, you can't go back either, can you? In the original world... you still have other family members, right?"

"no."

"Oh...ah?"

Mingyou looked up in disbelief.

Xiao Zhao shook her head gently. She had long since remembered everything. She used to be just an ordinary high school student, not this amazing.

Her father died unexpectedly when she was very young, jumping into a river to save someone. Her mother did not remarry, but worked very hard to raise her, hoping only that she could grow up healthy and live the life she wanted.

Because she comes from a single-parent family, she learned to live independently at a very young age. Her mother's gentleness and strength were also perfectly inherited by her. Perhaps she was influenced by her mother little by little in daily life.

Unfortunately, her mother passed away from overwork when she was 12 years old, leaving her to live alone, enduring the strange and pitying looks from those around her. So, she no longer had any family on the other side.

After hearing this, Mingyou reached out and gently hugged her. Instead of sympathizing with her experiences, she smiled and said, "It would be great to meet someone who could raise someone like you. But this just shows that you are also very suitable to be a good mother."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhao frowned slightly, gave him a coquettish look, and gently pushed him away, her eyes fixed on him warily: "What are you thinking, you underage kid?"

"I'm so sorry I'm underage, I'll try my best to grow up..."

Mingyou looked helpless. He had to stand firm after being hit. It was all his own fault, there was nothing he could do... After all, he really wasn't prepared at all, it was too sudden.

Noticing his expression, Xiao Zhao didn't continue the topic. After all, she was the one who lost control of her emotions at the time. Later, after thinking about it carefully, she wondered if couples really had to cross that line to maintain their relationship? At least their relationship was still very good, and they could even talk about marriage anytime if conditions allowed. They understood each other too well.

Hmm...do you really understand?

Xiao Zhao suddenly noticed this problem and couldn't help but look at Ming You. She had always felt that there was something being kept from her, but she couldn't say it. She just sensed it with her sixth sense.

Just as she was pondering this question, Mingyou sighed softly and finally decided to stop hiding it and told the other person that she was also a transmigrator.

"Hmm...that's roughly it."

"So you're one of them too... huh? Huh?"

Xiao Zhao belatedly realized that Ming You was so startled that her knitted hat nearly fell off. Ming You was also a time traveler? And in her past life, she was a teacher at an orphanage? No wonder she was so good at taking care of children… But that's not the point!

"You've lived over 40 years in total across both your lifetimes. Both of me combined aren't even as old as you. How dare you call yourself a minor!"

"At least for this lifetime, isn't it?"

"I...cannot refute it!"

Xiao Zhao patted her chest, trying to calm herself down quickly. The amount of information this time was much greater than the travel stories the other party had told her before, but many of her doubts were finally answered.

After a long silence, she finally processed the information and asked her first question: "So, in your past life, did you have any romantic relationships?"

"Is this question more important?"

"Of course... I'll get jealous..."

Xiao Zhao's eyes darted around, and her stammering voice grew softer and softer. This was the first time she had taken the initiative to admit that she was jealous.

"Don't worry, there isn't."

Mingyou said helplessly, "I even failed to say goodbye to Xiaozhao once, and I had to wait for her to take the initiative. How could I possibly have someone else? But the way she looked just now was quite cute."

Having gotten the answer she wanted, Xiao Zhao finally breathed a sigh of relief. She wasn't doubting it, but rather finding it unbelievable. Ming You was so outstanding, yet she had no competitors at all—it was too strange…

However, that topic was left at that. Now she was more concerned about something else. Since they were both time travelers, shouldn't they be ranked in order? There should be a first come, first served, right?

Although the other party had traveled through more than ten years, she herself had traveled to the Xicui era, belonging to the generation of ancestors. The two could not be compared. The main reason was that she really liked being called "senior" by others.

"How so? Or shall we decide by rock-paper-scissors?"

"Of course you're the senior!"

Mingyou immediately raised his hands in surrender. How could he not understand the other party's little scheme? Besides, having such a reliable senior was already enough for him.

"Yay!"

Xiao Zhao struck a victory pose, and noticing Ming You's doting gaze, she coughed lightly and stood up: "Of course, other names are fine too, you can call me whatever you want, but please try to use this newly unlocked name."

"Okay, Xiaozhao~ Senior~"

Mingyou deliberately dragged out the sound, and Xiaozhao smiled and nodded in satisfaction, but then she seemed to suddenly think of something and her expression froze.

"Oh, right, there's one more important thing!"

"Um?"

Before Mingyou could react, Xiaozhao lifted her off the sofa and dragged her to the front door. She stood there like a Muggle, staring blankly at the girl in front of her, not understanding her intentions.

But the next second, Xiao Zhao in front of him suddenly stood on tiptoe, wrapped her long arms around his neck, leaned forward slightly, and pressed herself tightly against him.

Feeling each other's hot breaths and heartbeats, and the fragrance and moisture from their tongues prying open each other's lips, they parted their lips after a long while. Mingyou gazed into the pair of beautiful, affectionate eyes in front of him, and heard Xiaozhao's sweet and gentle voice in his ear, the voice he longed to hear most.

"Mingyou, welcome home~"
