But the tailor always modestly said that he was too weak to rely on such external forces.
Aunt hesitated for a moment, then said—
"Senior tailor, I'm fine. Let's get to the Boss as soon as possible..."
"We just received a communication call."
The tailor said—
"It seems the Boss has withdrawn the summons."
"Hey?"
My aunt was a little surprised, and then a little exhausted. They had all gone to Tsinghua and Peking University, and suddenly they said they were canceling the call to action... It felt like they didn't have to do morning exercises because it was raining, but then they waited until everyone was on the playground before announcing it.
But there's nothing we can do; after all, they're the boss.
Aunt sighed and asked—
"So what exactly happened? A sudden call to arms, then a sudden cancellation. This is the first time such a call to arms has been issued, and everyone is in an uproar."
Even though many people couldn't come, they were still having a lively discussion on the headquarters channel.
There are quite a few magical girls around the world.
The boss seems to distribute contracts wholesale; he'll send someone a copy whenever he finds one interesting.
It's pure pleasure-seeking.
The tailor pursed his lips, then smiled helplessly and said—
"They said they forgot what the summoning button was for, so they tried pressing it..."
"..."
So casual!
But this is quite like the boss's style; sometimes she's a bit nonsensical, and you just can't figure out what she's thinking.
Aunt scratched her head and said—
"Then... is it alright if the senior tailor doesn't hurry up and chase after her? Her boss has revealed her location, she'll definitely move immediately, right?"
It's common knowledge that the tailor and the boss are playing a game of hide-and-seek that has lasted for centuries.
The tailor shook his head and said—
"Relying on speed is useless. She always releases a little bit of her whereabouts, making me chase after her, but that might just be the opposite of what I'm doing, and she'll manage to evade me."
This summons is probably the same; it's a clue she deliberately released.
She lowered her eyelids slightly, then gently gripped the motorcycle handlebars. Even if she missed every time, she wouldn't give up.
The tailor said—
"Although many people have already gone back, those who have free time are still rushing here. Xiao Hong feels that something seems to have happened at Tsinghua and Peking University, so she's going to investigate for a few days first."
"Oh, I see."
Without saying a word, the aunt climbed onto the back of the motorcycle and hugged the tailor's slender waist.
The engine started, and the two drove together toward Tsinghua and Peking Universities.
As we entered the city, it was already dark. The streetlights along the road illuminated the way, keeping the city vibrant at night.
The tailor looked at the sky and said—
"Let's find a place to eat something and rest. You must be tired from traveling today."
"Yes, thank you, senior."
Auntie knew that the other person was being considerate, so she didn't stand on ceremony. Companions help and understand each other, so there's no need to be too formal.
……
Chen Ming, holding his little maid's hand, walked along the riverbank, enjoying the refreshing night breeze, and looking at the stalls in the riverside park, hand in hand.
"Hahaha……"
Many children were playing, and passersby were also looking around. Some couldn't help but turn around and look at the couple, perhaps because they were surprised by A-Fu's appearance and clothing.
She felt a little awkward, looked at herself, and said—
"Fine, I think I should go back and change my clothes..."
Chen Ming smiled and patted her hand, saying—
"It's beautiful, I like it very much."
That simple sentence melted her heart, and she couldn't help but smile, looking slightly infatuated, throwing all her worries to the back of her mind.
They got on the bumper cars. Perhaps lovers are more annoying, or perhaps the children were just being mischievous and wanted to bump into them.
But sword immortals are not so easily fooled. The two laughed and maneuvered their vehicles to dodge all the attacks, while others ended up crashing into them.
Chen Ming felt that it was a bit unethical for the two sword immortals to bully a child, so he parked the car and took A Fu to the next stall.
"what is that?"
Afu pointed to a ring toss game stall, his eyes fixed on a windmill on display.
Chen Ming said—
"A game where you can take something away from the case."
As he spoke, he bought a ring toss game from the shop owner and handed it to her with a smile.
Ah Fu held the ring toss game in his hand, tilted his head slightly, and casually tossed the rings, each one landing accurately on the prize.
The stall owner's hand trembled, and his face turned pale instantly.
After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said—
"Take them all."
I never expected him to be such a principled person.
Chen Ming smiled and looked at the boss, saying—
"No need, let's just take the windmill."
Afu glanced at him, her heart warmed; his thoughtfulness made her so happy.
Chapter 540 Willing to Spend a Lifetime
Afu held a windmill in her hand, spinning it around and around, her gray eyes staring intently at it. She shook her hand, displaying a childlike innocence.
Holding her lover's arm in one hand and playing with a windmill in the other, she was immersed in this beautiful moment.
I couldn't help but steal a glance at his profile.
His face isn't exactly gentle; it's somewhat aloof, but he's always smiling, so people often overlook this and feel he's approachable.
He likes to look at his phone, but not indiscriminately. He's just explaining to his family that he chased after her and isn't going back yet; his family must be worried.
Xuan, in particular, might be blaming himself; one can almost picture the child clutching his head in distress… I'm so sorry.
Afu scratched his head slightly and moved closer to him to look at his phone screen.
Chen Ming felt her warm body approaching, looked over, and smiled as he said—
"The landlady said that Xuan is very worried about you and feels very guilty. He looks pitiful sitting on the sofa with his knees drawn up to his chest."
"Huh, huh?"
Ah Fu, with an expression that said, "I knew it," said with some worry—
"Is Xuan alright?"
"I've already told her you're fine, so she doesn't need to worry."
"That child is very responsible, I'm afraid he still won't be able to let go."
"Hmm... do you care so much about your apprentice?"
Chen Ming narrowed his eyes.
Afu nodded and said—
"The bond between master and disciple is very important."
Over such a long period of time, old friends have all passed away. Only the master and disciple who are both sword immortals can last. In the world of sword immortals, the master and disciple relationship is equivalent to that of family.
The master-disciple relationship between Afu and Xuan spans so many years, making it incredibly profound.
Chen Ming, however, mischievously said—
"Since you care so much, why don't we go back and comfort Sister Xuan first?"
"Hey?"
Afu was taken aback, then saw him really about to turn around and walk home. She quickly grabbed his hand and said anxiously—
"No, no need. Xuan... Xuan is a reliable person, so there's no need to be so nervous."
Uh, what am I saying...?
As soon as Afu said those words, she realized she had become terrible. She had actually abandoned her disciple, whom she had been concerned about just to spend more time with him.
Chen Ming couldn't help but reveal a sinister smile, turning back to look at her and saying—
"What a 'good master'! The master-disciple relationship is very deep?"
"Waaah..."
The young maid felt ashamed and awkwardly rubbed her thighs together, shrank her shoulders, and lowered her head, looking humble, but she still clung to his arm and refused to let go.
With tears in her eyes, she whispered—
"Bullying people..."
He knows exactly how much he enjoys being with her, yet he still does something that embarrasses her. Is he trying to prove his supreme status in her heart?
Even though she was so compliant, he still bullied her again and again. It's true that those who are favored are fearless. Love made her humble.
Looking at Afu's soft expression, he felt a sense of pleasure. Bullying a little maid was certainly fun, but it should be done in moderation.
