Masha now wished that she could stick to Lin Feng for 24 hours a day.
No matter if it was for eating, bathing, or even going to the toilet...
After finishing breakfast, Lin Feng comfortably lay on the sofa. He wanted to properly enjoy the tranquility of the early morning.
As soon as he closed his eyes for a moment, he heard the sound of something being dragged coming towards him.
Opening his eyes, Masha's face was right in front of him.
She was bending over, carefully observing Lin Feng.
"Asleep?"
"No, just resting my eyes. I've been a bit too tired these past few days..."
Before he could finish speaking, Masha sat down next to him.
Lin Feng let out a soft sigh, feeling very helpless.
Although he didn't dislike Masha sticking to him, she should at least give him some personal space.
Look at the beast-eared girls, they might sleep together at night, but during the day they each had their own things to do.
Yuna would go to the backyard to train alone, Yu Li and Kandis would go to the Adventurers' Guild to take on monster bounties, Emily and Rosa Linda would do housework all day, and even that stinky dragon Red Scale had recently started growing flowers...
"You're so free, don't you have anything of your own to do?" Lin Feng casually slapped Masha's butt, "Following me around all day long."
The speaker had no intention, but the listener took it to heart.
Masha's previously relaxed nerves instantly tensed up.
Lowering her head, she softly murmured: "Have I...started to annoy you?"
"Not to the point of annoying me, but you can't keep following me like this all the time, right?" Lin Feng quickly took her into his arms and patted her shoulder comfortingly.
"Why not? As long as you're willing, I'll always quietly follow behind you."
...
Such a straightforward confession left Lin Feng at a loss for words.
One didn't know how to respond to this in the moment.
Lin Feng got up and brewed a pot of red tea, waiting a while before pouring a cup for Masha.
"Before I came back, what did you usually do when you were free?"
Masha was stumped by the question. She tilted her head, pondering this problem while mechanically sipping the tea.
"I won't be free. "
"Oh? How's that?"
"After waking up, I would set off on the path to find you. I haven't been free these past few years." Masha seriously replied.
"But now I'm back. You can't be like before. People have to live their own lives. You can't only live for me, right?"
"Why not?" Masha threw herself into Lin Feng's arms, gently coaxing, "I chased after Brother Lin Feng for so long before finally succeeding. I must give birth to many, many children for you..."
What?!
"With such a petite body yet such lofty ideals, I, Lin Feng, will definitely...sorry, went off topic there."
Lin Feng coughed twice, gently lifting Masha aside: "What did you do at home?"
"I would sweep and mop, help customers take measurements, occasionally go mining at nearby mines, and sometimes help dad work the bellows."
"What you mentioned are all work. Apart from that, what else?"
Masha shook her head.
As she said, spending day after day like that really would be dull.
Being able to endure this for ten or twenty years took quite some perseverance.
If it were Lin Feng, he probably would have run away from home out of boredom.
From the corner of her eye, Masha caught sight of Lin Feng's wrist, and it was like a light bulb went off as she slapped her forehead: "That's right! I also like making bracelets!"
"That's not bad. Making and selling bracelets, you can not only cultivate a hobby, but possibly make some money from selling them."
"You're right!" Masha suddenly stood up, looked around, then ran towards the backyard. After a while she came back holding many smooth stones.
Then without even a word, she raced upstairs.
Lin Feng slowly let out a breath, and slowly closed his eyes.
Just as he was about to nap for a bit, Emily came running over and deliberately sat right on Lin Feng's face.
A faint ocean smell wafted over.
Although they often played around like this, it was still better to show some restraint in broad daylight.
If she led others astray, then he would suffer in the future.
"Silly rabbit, what are you doing? Annoying."
"You can't sleep. Come out with me later." Emily was even more unscrupulous when she saw Lin Feng didn't resist.
Lin Feng pushed her butt away: "What is it? Are you thinking of going back to visit your hometown?"
"No, I'm going out to buy flowers. Yuna asked me to a few days ago." Emily had just sat on Lin Feng's face, but now she was neurotically sniffing his face.
"You're so annoying...go away!"
Lin Feng thought for a moment.
He suddenly remembered that on the night he established a bond with Masha, Yuna had asked him to buy a few potted plants as spares.
He had accidentally forgotten about this matter.
"Do you know what kind of flowers she wants to buy?" Lin Feng raised an eyebrow slightly.
Emily laughed and then happily exclaimed: "Of course it's holy flowers!"
It was ridiculous when you thought about it.
According to Yu Li, the Takizawa flowers that couldn't be found anywhere in the Great Forest before were now even being artificially cultivated.
The two changed clothes and went to the nearest flower shop.
Emily tiptoed while craning her neck, and finally saw the coveted Takizawa flowers in an inconspicuous corner.
She foolishly ran over and reverently picked up the flower pot.
The female boss of the flower shop seemed very friendly towards beastmen. Seeing Emily's enraptured look, she quietly asked: "Do you like them a lot?"
Lin Feng carefully looked over this boss. She had a pleasant appearance and seemed to be in her mid-thirties. Her figure was clearly well-maintained.
Yu Li had said just a few days ago that this boss was her friend, so mentioning her name while bargaining could possibly get a cheaper price.
"Of course I like them! These are the holy flowers of our tribe. They are revered there not just because they are beautiful, but because they can cure all illnesses!" Emily held the flower pot and excitedly ran to Lin Feng's side, "Hubby, buy them for me."
"Since you like them, I'll just gift them to you. These flowers don't sell much, so there are always one or two pots left over."
"Really?" Emily's eyes lit up. She pointed to the few pots of Takizawa flowers next to her, "Then, can you gift me all of these? I really love these flowers."
Lin Feng watched from the side, thinking that this rabbit was quite shameless.
"That's...still not possible. Ours is a small business, we can't do things like that." The boss awkwardly smiled.
Lin Feng couldn't stand it anymore and rapped Emily on the head: "There's a limit to taking advantage of bargains."
But she retorted righteously: "It's a fool who doesn't take advantage of a bargain!"
Oh well...he would discipline her when they got home.
"We'll take all these pots. This rabbit is a bit dumb, don't take her words seriously."
Emily didn't complain at all. On the contrary, she kept muttering enthusiastically: "So many holy flowers...so many holy flowers!"
She had already started fantasizing about waking up every morning to a row of Takizawa flowers lining the windowsill.
"Hubby, you're so nice! When we get home, I'll let you...hmmph!"
When Emily was halfway through speaking, Lin Feng swiftly covered her mouth.
The female boss also didn't know what to say when she saw this scene.
