"Feng is a lust-devouring monster, right? I'll give you these core coins. I only need to keep one set of Tatoba transformations."

Di Xifeng gently pressed down Ying Si's hand that was handing over the coin book, and shook his head decisively: "You should keep these for yourself, you don't need to give them to me."

Di Xifeng explained to him that since he was a lust-eating monster created by Wu Fan, the benefits that core coins other than the insect type could bring to him were minimal, almost non-existent, so instead of letting these coins hide in his body, it would be better to keep them in his hands and make good use of them.

Now Di Xifeng wants to evolve again, and what he needs is the last coin of the insect group, the mantis core coin. Unfortunately, Naruto Eiji does not have this coin.

Di Xifeng was very curious about his next evolution, and had called Dr. Yu Men before to ask what he would become after his next evolution.

Dr. Yumen told him that the next evolution could have three possible directions.

The first is to improve Di Xifeng's ability to create Desire-Eating Monsters, because only those who can create Desire-Eating Monsters are Greedy, and this is the only way to evolve into a Greedy.

The second is the evolution of Di Xifeng's body, but this only evolved the power of Di Xifeng's desire-eating monster, so the evolution in this direction is the most unfortunate one.

And this last possible evolution is unknown.

Di Xifeng was originally a special case. There had never been a case of a Desire Devourer absorbing a core coin before. Even Doctor Yu Men had never seen it, so no one knew what kind of evolution would be achieved after completing this series of combinations.

No one knows whether he will evolve into a Greedy One, remain at the level of a Lust-Eating Monster, or become a new species.

Pushing the coin back into Hino Eiji's arms, Di Xifeng saw a determination in his gradually changing eyes, so he smiled and asked, "How is it, have you found what you want to do?"

"Ah."

Hino Eiji nodded and looked at the Eagle Core Coin in his hand:

"He gave us the coin and asked for help. It was the first time this had happened, so I had to save him."

"Isn't this expression well chosen? Do you need my help?"

Hino Eiji wanted to refuse in his heart but he didn't say it out loud: "If I encounter any difficulties, I will ask you for help."

"Is that so..." When Di Xifeng stood up from the ground, he took another grilled fish and left the Xiao Luo cell coin there: "Thank you for the grilled fish, it tastes good."

"Yeah, my cooking skills have been honed."

……

...

With familiar movements, he inserted the key into the door lock, opened the door of the residence he had lived in for a month, put the bag of snacks he had just bought from the convenience store on the ground, and sat in the entrance hall to change his shoes.

"I am back."

Such words have become a compulsory subject every day. Even if no one at home will respond, Di Xifeng will still say it. After all, if he doesn't say "I'm back" before entering the house, Xueno will give him a lecture as a human trying to disobey.

"Welcome back."

"!"

Someone actually replied to me. Could it be that Yukino has returned?

Di Xifeng quickly changed his shoes and walked into the living room. There was no familiar figure there. He only saw Waier lying on the sofa, changing TV channels boredly.

Di Xifeng himself did not realize that Xue Nai's absence had a huge impact on him. If it were the Di Xifeng of the past, he would never have thought that he might become uneasy because of a human being.

The food on the table was still hot, and the smell of smoke from the stove had not yet completely dissipated. Di Xifeng looked at Waier in surprise.

Feeling uneasy at Di Xifeng's look, Wai'er quickly sat up from the sofa: "What are you doing? I can't eat snacks with you every day. I still have to cook."

What surprised Di Xifeng was not that Wai'er actually cooked for him, but that Wai'er actually knew how to cook. He, a contractor, couldn't do it, but Wai'er, a contracted beast, actually knew how to cook!!!

After dinner, Di Xifeng washed the dishes. Looking at the pile of plates on the table that looked like they had just come out of the factory, Di Xifeng felt a little proud of the dishwashing skills he had learned from Xue Noi.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Di Xifeng received a call from Lai Zi Yuigahama Yui on time.

"Hello~ Is this the call from A Feng?"

Hearing the familiar voice made Di Xifeng feel much more relaxed and his tone became more lively. At the same time, Di Xifeng cooperated with Yuigahama Yui a little: "Hello~ This is A Feng who answered the phone."

This phone call was to make arrangements for the two of them for tomorrow's festival activities. They needed to agree in advance what time to gather, what time to play, and where to go, so that they wouldn't run around like headless flies tomorrow.

However, Yuigahama Yui has always believed that wandering around is the correct way to participate in the festival, and she rejected all of Di Xifeng's plans. Hearing Di Xifeng being speechless after being refuted, Yuigahama Yui's mood also improved a lot.

She had called Yukino many times in the past two days. Although each call was short, Yukino liked it very much. Just talking about the recent banquet arrangements or trivial matters at home could make them chat happily.

The day of the festival is approaching, but Yukino's family has yet to let her go home, so it seems that the three of them won't be able to celebrate the festival together this time.

The last phone call before the festival started with the silence between Yukino and Yui. From the moment the call was connected, the two of them maintained a tacit silence for a while until Yukino said "that" and it was broken.

As soon as Yukino was born, Yuigahama Yui mustered up the courage to say everything she wanted to say: "Um, I really... I really still want to be with the three of us. I will be happy only when the three of us are together..."

Yui ended the conversation with sobs and hung up the phone. After taking a break and adjusting her mood, she called Di Xifeng.

After refuting all of Di Xifeng's plans, her true purpose was revealed.

"That Ah Feng, I really still want to be with Xiao Xue."

"..."

"Ah, I don't mean anything else, don't think wrongly. What I mean is that I will be happy only when the three of us are together, and then I will..."

Silence again, silence again. Doesn't this author have any other plans to spend his time except silence?

"Is this a request, Yui?"

"This is a commission, Afeng."

Chapter 55 But I Reject

The fireworks festival on that day was very lively. Some people came with their families, some with friends, and some with their partners.

In this place where people gather in groups, Yuigahama Yui, who sits alone on a bench, stands out.

"Hey, isn't this Yui-chan?"

The voice sounded familiar, Yui looked away from the paper bag in her hand and looked at the girl standing in front of her.

With short red hair, deliberate makeup and an indescribable expression, Yuigahama Yui was stunned for a moment and said:

"Ah, it's Sagami."

Sagami Minami is a classmate of Yuigahama Yui, and can be considered a friend with whom she can talk.

"Oh my god, Yui, how come you don't even recognize me?" Sagami Minami complained

Yuigahama Yui realized that her reaction was a bit rude to Sagami Minami, so she quickly waved her hand and explained, "No, I just didn't expect you to come today, Sagami. Long time no see."

"It's been a long time since we last met. I think we haven't played together since the holiday." Sagami Minami is a very showy and self-righteous person. When she found out that Yuigahama Yui was alone, she decided to save the lonely Yuigahama classmate, so she asked knowingly: "By the way, are you here alone today?"

Yuigahama Yui's face darkened at first but she quickly recovered and said to Sagami Minami with a smile, "We came here as a group of three, but we got separated because there were too many people."

"Is that so? Yui, why don't you just come and play with us? It's so boring to stay here alone. They won't come to find you."

This statement is just short of saying "Look how nice I am, I'm willing to take you out to play."

No matter how Sagami Minami persuaded her, Yui insisted on waiting a little longer. Seeing Sagami Minami's changed expression as soon as she turned her head, she hugged the paper bag tightly in her arms and still sat on the bench waiting for the vibration of her phone.

……

...

Yukinoshita Yukino has been having a very hard time these past two days.

Her mother's name is Yukinoshita Kan. As the real person in charge of the Yukinoshita family, she has a strong personality and is a person who has the final say.

She was very strict in educating Yukino, which made Yukino feel very constrained and unfree, so she tried her best to move out of her hometown and live alone.

Yukino feels uncomfortable every day at home, and it has even become worse after so much time has passed.

When she first saw her mother after returning home, Xueno was panicked by her gaze, fearing that she had done something wrong and was seen by her. The ice queen that everyone feared at school was just a frightened little girl in front of her mother.

Her mother told her that she was called back because there was a family banquet being organized in the next few days and many representatives of well-known local clan companies would be attending, so as the support of the Yukinoshita family, she had to be present.

Moreover, this party would not just last one day, there would be different guests throughout the week, so my request to go back home at the end of the first day was rejected, and she even scolded me severely.

No matter how eloquent Yukinoshita is, or how stubborn she is, she dares not resist her mother. She has no choice but to stay at home obediently. When she has free time, she calls Yui and kills time by wondering if Di Xifeng and Waier are wasting their time at home.

Today is... the day of the festival.

She had just changed into a dress and sat on the bed, looking at her phone that was charging next to her pillow: "Yui and the others, what are they doing?"

He picked up the phone tremblingly, hesitated for a while, and finally clicked on the familiar column in the address book to make a call. The call did not go through, and Di Xifeng's call was displayed as being in progress.

She hung up the phone and lay down on the bed without caring at all that her freshly braided hair was messed up. The bed was big and soft, but it was not as comfortable as her own bed. Lying on this bed, she felt extremely empty inside.

"I also want to go to the festival with them..." Yukinoshita Yukino buried her head in the pillow and held the quilt with her hands. She is not a real ice queen and she also has her weak points.

Tears flowed out of his eyes, and with the influence of gravity, the tears from his left eye slid under his right eye and soaked the mattress.

knock knock knock

There was a sudden knock on the door, and Yukinoshita Haruno pushed the door open and walked into the room.

"Xue-no, are you okay? Mom asked me to come and tell you to get out."

If I had just pushed the door open like this in the past, Xiaoxue would have definitely complained about me, but today she was particularly quiet.

She tiptoed to sit down next to Yukino and gently pried open Yukino's hands that were grasping the bed sheet. She found that Yukino was grasping the bed sheet very tightly, and finger marks appeared on the palms of her hands.

"Xiaoxue, are you...crying?"

Yukinoshita Haruno was very surprised, because the educational policy of the Yukinoshita family is to establish opponents and constantly surpass them. Even if Yukinoshita Haruno cares about Yukino, she still puts herself in opposition to Yukino, wanting her to get rid of her dependence on herself. But even so, she has never seen Yukinoshita Yukino cry.

Yukinoshita Yukino looked so helpless and weak, and Yang No felt sorry for her sister. She slowly lifted Yukino up and took out a towel to wipe her tears. Yukino did not resist and let Yang No do whatever she wanted.

"Yukino, do you really want to go?"

Yukinoshita Yukino nodded obediently. Yukinoshita Haruno couldn't help but think that if she was always so cute and honest, she would definitely not be so unpopular.

"Look at my little Yukino, your makeup has been ruined by your tears." He wiped the tears on his face and smiled at Yukino's pretty face: "As expected, my sister is beautiful."

Being praised so explicitly by Yukinoshita Haruno, Yukinoshita Yukino was a little shy and covered her face with one hand.

"Xue-no-chan, please go."

Yukinoshita Haruno held both of Yukino's hands in hers, and the sisters felt the warmth of each other's palms. Haruno couldn't remember how long it had been since they had had such a heart-to-heart talk, but she now felt that she wanted to do so.

"Everyone around here has been moved away by me. The guard at the door is also my man. Just say a word and he will let you out."

"But in this case, sister, you, mother..."

Yukinoshita Yukino knew that if her sister did this, her mother would blame all the faults on her.

"Anyway, I have already agreed with Mom. All the choices I make are for the better of the family. No matter how much punishment I receive, it won't matter."

"..."

"As a sister, of course my sister's happiness is the most important~"

Yukinoshita Yukino found that she seemed to have become different from herself. She didn't hide in her room and cry because she couldn't go to a festival, nor did she show her vulnerable side in front of her sister.

It can create nothing, obtain nothing, give nothing, it is just a fake.

Is escaping really the right choice?

……

"Thank you, sister, but I refuse."

Chapter 56 What Happened

Yukinoshita Kan was very happy today. The reason for her happiness was none other than that she had successfully invited representatives of the famous Hongshang Foundation to attend the banquet she was hosting.

Yukinoshita Kan is not an incompetent head of the family. She knows her family's strengths and weaknesses very well. Her family may be considered powerful and has a long history in her local area, but looking at the world, her family is just a small family that cannot even be named.

Since she took power in the Yukinoshita Clan, she has been trying to make the Yukinoshita Clan strong again, and she has indeed done it.

Her husband, who was a puppet, gradually rose in the political arena by paving the way for her, and the family business also grew stronger.

If one wants to be competitive enough in both the officialdom and the business world, the more friends the better. So every once in a while she would hold banquets to invite prominent figures in the officialdom or business world. Many people were also willing to give face to the local tyrant, the Yukinoshita family, and attend the banquet, except for another local company.

Hongshang Foundation

Of course, Yukinoshita Kan would not complain if the Hongjo Foundation did not accept the invitation, because the Hongjo Foundation was different from the Yukinoshita family. It was a large enterprise with a say in the world. It would be better for her family to find a way to make friends with this one.

The reason for her happiness was that the Hongo Foundation, which had not accepted invitations for many years, unexpectedly decided to attend the banquet this time, which made Yukinoshita Kan feel lucky. It was also said that this time it was the chairman of the Hongo Foundation, Hongo Mitsuio, who came in person.

Upon hearing the news, she hurriedly called out all her daughters, and also asked her direct subordinate, her son Hayato Hayama, to stand at the door to welcome Mitsuo Hongo, determined to give him a good impression.

Watching her eldest daughter walking out holding her second daughter's hand, the second daughter's makeup had been wiped off.

Yukinoshita Kan realized that Yukino's makeup was ruined by crying, and there was no time to touch up her makeup so she had to wipe it all off.
