Fast Wear: A Different Life

Chapter 416: Longing for Love (30)

Time slowly came to the day of Xiangliu's coming of age ceremony. After the family had a simple breakfast in the morning, Fangfeng Bei arrived.

Not long after he arrived, the guests who came to watch the ceremony also gradually arrived.

Until half an hour before the coming-of-age ceremony, the number of people coming gradually decreased, and most of them were from the town.

After complicated ceremonies, Xiangliu's coming-of-age ceremony was finally completed.

Finally, Fu Shiqi and Xiangliu invited everyone to the largest restaurant in town, "Chunfenglou".

On this day, Fu Shiqi booked the entire Chunfeng Tower, set up a buffet downstairs and entertained guests upstairs.

The banquet didn't end until mid-afternoon. After Ji Xiao and her family saw off the last guest, they were all exhausted after being busy for most of the day.

Fortunately, days like this only come once in a lifetime.

By the time Fu Shiqi had settled the final bill, Ji Xiao had already asked Fang Fengbei, who had come early to help, to go back and rest. After all, it was really tiring to talk to people all day long. Afterwards, the family of four walked home in the afterglow of the sunset.

After returning home, Ji Xiao and Fu Shiqi took out the birthday gift they had prepared for Xiangliu and gave it to him. Then they sent Xiaoyao and Xiangliu back to their room to wash up and rest early. She and Fu Shiqi also returned to the bedroom.

After returning to the room, Ji Xiao took Fu Shiqi into the space. Without saying anything, she turned into her original form and soaked in the pool, letting herself float on the water.

Fu Shiqi didn't disturb her because he also transformed into his original form and planted himself in the soil.

The ways of the world are really tiring, but when he thought about another time when Xiaoyao would reach the age of 15, he felt like his whole body was about to break apart.

This was more tiring than all the years he had been a police officer. After all, apart from his superiors, he had no use for these things.

Now he can face all kinds of people with a smile. It is really difficult to be a human being.

I saw that the whole flower was almost losing its luster. The whole yard was extremely quiet that night. Everyone went back to their rooms, simply washed up and went to bed.

At this time of day, Ji Xiao and Fu Shiqi were still chatting in the yard, basking in the moonlight, enjoying the breeze, and fishing.

Now, the two of them were too lazy to even open their mouths, let alone chat. They just wanted to have a good rest.

The next day, no one got up, including Xiaoyao, who was just accompanying the guest's child and was unable to get up for morning exercises.

It was not until the sun was about to set in the afternoon that they came out of the room one after another.

Ji Xiao looked at Xiangliu, who was wearing an ice-blue robe, with white hair and a golden hair crown, and it really fits the saying: The man on the street is as beautiful as jade, and the young man is unparalleled in the world.

After sighing, when Xiang Liu came to sit next to her, Ji Xiao said to him: "I plan to take Xiao Yao out for a walk with your father. Now that you are an adult, you can go out alone."

"So when are you and my dad going to leave?"

"Now, both Jishitang and Jingsi Zhai are looked after by people, and we can leave at any time."

"Then I'll leave with you."

"Okay." Ji Xiao then changed the subject and asked, "Where is your friend Maoqiu? Why haven't you seen him since you came back?"

"It just broke out of its shell not long ago, and then ate several ice crystals, and is now sleeping."

"Fine!"

After chatting for a while, Ji Xiao and Fu Shiqi went fishing, while Xiao Yao continued her daily practice.

Although she has learned all kinds of weapons, she still likes to use the trident the most, so she goes to the training ground to practice every day.

Now, all she needed to do was put it into practice. The so-called practice meant surviving the ferocious beasts in the beginning and defeating them at a very small cost later on.

Finally, Xiangliu, who didn't want to do anything, also picked up his own fishing rod, came to the pond, found a place to cast the rod and sat down.

After Xiangliu cast out the hook, he sat there quietly waiting for the fish to bite. Not long after, he felt a fish bite the hook, and he quickly reeled in the rod, and a big fish jumped out of the water.

At this time, Xiaoyao had also finished his daily training course and came to the pond with his fishing rod. When he saw the fish Xiangliu had caught, he clapped his hands happily and praised, "Brother, you are amazing!"

The couple on the other side of the river caught the fish and then released it. After eating fish for so many years, Ji Xiao and his wife had already gotten tired of it.

Now fishing is just a way to kill time and a hobby.

Xiangliu smiled, put the fish into the bucket, put the bait back on, and threw the hook into the water again.

Xiaoyao watched for a while and then found a place to cast his fishing rod.

However, after a long time, Xiaoyao didn't catch any fish, and she became a little frustrated. She was sitting next to Xiangliu this time, so at least she could catch one!

"Brother, why are there so many fish in front of you, but not even one for me?"

"Don't be impatient, fishing requires patience." Xiangliu comforted softly.

"Well, but I didn't move or say anything! It's been such a long time today, and I haven't caught any fish." Xiao Yao nodded, muttered softly, then cast the rod and continued to work hard.

Finally, after sitting for another two hours, she caught a small fish and shouted with joy.

"Brother, brother, look, I finally caught a fish. Hahaha..."

Xiaoyao proudly showed her trophy to Xiangliu, and Xiangliu turned around to take a look at the palm-sized fish.

"You sat there for a long time and only caught this thing. You are so lucky."

"Well, I'm just so happy! I seldom catch fish, and I don't know why." Xiao Yao replied as he took the fish down and put it back into the water.

"There are more fish around mom and dad, why don't you go there?"

"Then why don't you go?" Xiaoyao won't go! They caught fish, but they had eaten enough dog food.

Xiangliu also knew why. After all, he had been with his parents longer than Xiaoyao. It was easy to say about his mother, but not about his father.

His father is worse than a dog. He wants to be with his mother anytime and anywhere. He wants to be close to his mother even when fishing or reading a book.

If his mother hadn't been worried about letting him go out and gain experience alone during those years, he wouldn't have wanted to go with his father at all, but who can blame him for being a good son who listens to his mother?

If Fu Shiqi knew that Xiangliu said he was a good boy, he would definitely say he was shameless, because he was a dark person inside. Xiangliu would only show his kind side in front of Ji Xiao.

Ji Xiao knew what he was actually like, after all, she was the one who taught him personally.

When Xiangliu and Fu Shiqi went out to train together, he had to cook and kill ferocious beasts. Only when they encountered rare treasures would his father help. Sometimes he would even cheat materials from him to prepare gifts for his mother. It was really enough.

Xiang Liu rolled his eyes silently in his heart, glanced at Xiao Yao and said, "What do you think?"

"All right!"

In this way, the family of four fished all night, and finally left a smaller fish for Xiaohong to cook fish fillet porridge.

This is what Ji Xiao wanted to eat. They put back all the fish they caught. The only one left was the one caught by Xiao Yao. After all, her fish was the smallest.

Xiaoyao caught two fish in one night. The first one was too small so he released it, and the second one was taken back to make porridge.
