Chapter 454 Unexpected Visitor

Although they are only three years apart in age, Xiao Xiao always has a strange feeling of being an elder towards the siblings Xiao Qi and Xiao Lin.

No, no, it must be an illusion.

Xiao Xiao shook his head in dismay, the main reason being that these two naughty kids were too good at causing trouble.

Well, you can't say they're causing trouble, because the siblings Xiao Qi and Xiao Lin are smart and good at dealing with things, and they're the ones who always gather their friends wherever they go. This inevitably gives people the impression that they're too unruly and difficult to discipline.

What's more, the two siblings are somewhat rebellious in their temperament.

Not to mention, they are at the age of being young and reckless.

……

Everyone in the Xiao family tends to be quiet.

It's rare that the younger generation has a pair of lively twins, a boy and a girl. In fact, everyone loves them very much.

The two siblings are also good at changing with the times.

This further encouraged their arrogance.

In particular, Xiao's mother liked the sweet-talking siblings Xiao Qi and Xiao Lin very much. She always regretted that Xiao Xiao was too mature since he was a child, which deprived her of a lot of fun in being a mother.

In this regard, Xiao Xiao could only smile bitterly.

It is said that the country is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change.

He was born like this, and there was nothing he could do about it.

……

"Huh~Bang~"

Fireworks whistled up into the sky, and when they reached the highest point, they suddenly "bloomed" like a flower, shining brightly and brilliantly.

It was fleeting, but when a firework turned into points of light and disappeared into the sky, there were more fireworks "blooming like flowers".

The sky flickered, and colorful neon silhouettes were projected onto the faces looking up below. Pairs of eyes were sparkling with surprise and joy, and small fireworks bloomed among them, so gorgeous.

Even after the fireworks faded, the world in front of them never fell into true darkness.

……

"Chirp~"

"嘤嘤~"

Even in such a noisy environment, Xiao Xiao immediately caught the cries of the two monsters.

Then he felt a weight on his left shoulder. He tilted his head, and Pigeon and Baby Spoon tilted their heads to show him an amazed smile. Their emerald eyes and blood-red pupils seemed even more radiant and beautiful under the colorful light and shadow in the sky.

Xiao Xiao smiled slightly and looked to the other side. Feifei, who was squatting and looking up at the sky, tilted his head as if he felt something. Xiao Xiao's smiling face was reflected in his eyes. The silver-blue eyes lost some of their coldness and gained some brilliance.

"Ouch~"

The eyes under Taotie's armpits watched the grand "performance" of fireworks with a rare appreciation.

The sky is the stage and all things are the audience.

How soul-stirring.

……

The fireworks gradually became sparse and the sky fell into darkness again.

After the vigil was over, everyone went to rest.

Xiao Xiao deliberately stayed until the end.

He walked to the sycamore tree and squatted down.

The fungus man still looked up at the sky with an intoxicated look on his face, almost pious.

Until there were no more fireworks, Junren lowered his head with a sense of reluctance.

The mushroom people had never seen such a beautiful "scenery" before.

The first shock made it uneasy, and the excitement lasted for a long time.

……

The fungus man turned around excitedly:?!

Then I saw Xiao Xiao squatting, supporting his chin with one hand, looking at it with a smile on his face.

"Cuckoo!"

The fungus man screamed, Lord Xiao Xiao!
How come it didn't know when Master Xiao Xiao came to it?!
"Cuckoo! Cuckoo!"

Lord Xiao Xiao, I'm sorry!

I didn't notice you just now!
……

Looking at the fungus man who reacted violently and even looked extremely guilty, Xiao Xiao was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

What is this little monster thinking about?
Is he so scary?

He had always believed that he was very kind to this little monster. The reason why Xiao Xiao didn't say anything just now was that he didn't want to disturb the fungus man from admiring the sky, and a small part of the reason was that he wanted to see what kind of reaction the fungus man would have when he found himself next to it?
Obviously, the little monster's reaction gave Xiao Xiao a big "surprise".

Xiao Xiao rubbed his ears.

Caught off guard, he was actually shocked by the fungus man's high pitch.

Does this mean he is asking for trouble?

……

"Fungus man."

Xiao Xiao called out softly, his low voice carrying a bit of soothing power, "No need to apologize."

"It was me who quietly squatted beside you."

"I'm sorry for scaring you."

"Gugu~Gugu~"

The fungus man shook his head quickly. No, Master Xiao Xiao didn't need to apologize. It was he who was too rude. He...

"So, we are both wrong, and the matter is over?"

Xiao Xiao interrupted the fungus man's self-reflection and criticism in a gentle voice and suggested with a smile.

“…Gugu.”

The fungus man was stunned for a moment, then nodded slowly, but also muttered that it was mostly his fault. He made too much of a fuss and did not notice the arrival of Lord Xiao Xiao.

Thinking of this, the fungus man felt that he had committed a heinous crime.

Seeing that the fungus man was about to fall into self-contempt again, Xiao Xiao wisely changed the subject.

"Mushroom man, do you like fireworks?"

"Goo~"

"It's the ones that were released in the sky just now."

The fungus man suddenly realized and nodded vigorously, "Gugu~Gugu~"

They are so beautiful, almost as beautiful as the stars in the sky!
"hehe."

Seeing that the fungus man was no longer in his previous state of confusion, but instead looked like he was immersed in self-intoxication, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but chuckle.

"Yes, they are really beautiful."

There was a hint of smile in Xiao Xiao's voice.

……

When Xiao Xiao walked to the gate of the yard and was about to lock it, his ears moved and he raised his eyebrows slightly. He seemed to hear a familiar voice.

But, how is this possible?

Is he going to meet another monkey?
That’s right, what he vaguely heard before was the low “bleating” sound. The very distinctive voice made Xiao Xiao recognize the owner of the voice at once.

But how did it appear here?

Although his home is in the same city as the school, the distance is not close.

How on earth did that timid monster appear here?

……

"Quack~"

The croaking of frogs coming from behind made Xiao Xiao 90% sure that the croaking he heard before was exactly the sound made by the frog he knew.

Maybe he'll find a second one.

But, it wouldn't be such a coincidence that the second monkey I met would also be accompanied by the frog god, right?

The 猼訑 and the frog god are not in a companion relationship.

……

Xiao Xiao opened the door and looked into the dark alley.

He could clearly hear the footsteps getting closer.

……

Xiao Xiao didn't move and stood quietly behind the threshold.

He didn't have to wait long before he saw the monster coming out of the darkness.

It looks like a sheep, with nine tails and four ears, and its eyes are on its back.

It's true.

The moment those deep green eyes saw Xiao Xiao, they suddenly lit up with a bright light.

The deep eyes became a little clearer.
