Chapter 25: The Turbulent Sea of the Hainan Festival

  Just as they were chatting idly, a servant from the Four Treasures Temple arrived with some refreshments.

  "Hello, Brother Qian and everyone at Sifang Bao Temple. We meet again."

  "Yafeng, have you met Older Sister and Huirizhen before?" Ninxu asked with some concern.

  Yahiko's face turned ugly at the mention of that day, it was something she would never forget. But immediately she recovered and smiled: "Yes, sister is really special, Hanae-chan is also worth learning from, I roughly know where you guys learned it from, and understand how Shouta-nii's personality was formed."

  A few people in the know naturally heard the implication behind Ya Feng's words, while others were left confused.

  "Yes indeed, we call it refined through a hundred trials. Congratulations on becoming one of us." Baishi was beaming with joy.

  "I think so too," said Yafeng, half consoling himself. "It's good to take some blows and training while we're still young."

  "Yah, don't slack off." Sanada finally made out the name after listening for half a day, and he had also heard of that exceptional older sister from the Shinobi Tsuba household.

  "Yes." Yafeng immediately stood up and replied. As for this conditioned reflex, Yafeng actually despised himself, but he couldn't stop himself.

  "Hmph."

  Yah Feng's conditioned reflex triggered laughter from many people.

  "Yafeng is really too lovely." Xiaochun gazed at Yafeng with eyes full of adoration.

  "Xiaochun, do you want to get off (sensitive word) track?" Yishi immediately became very excited and defended her love.

  "It's nothing, they just think Yafeng is cute." Xiaochun said with a hint of grievance.

  Just as they were fooling around, everyone laughed and forgot about what had happened earlier.

  Seichiro, Hyotei and the four members of Shitenhoji had sat down for a bit and were thinking of going somewhere else to take a stroll. Koshinuke told Yafune to accompany him, saying that she was also tired from the past few days and should take this opportunity to relax a bit. As a result, just after they came out, only Nifumi brothers, Atobe Keigo, and Shiratama Mitsuya were left beside Yafune.

  "Well, actually I'm not very familiar with our school either. If you have a place you want to go to, just go ahead." Yafeng said with some embarrassment.

  "This old man doesn't have anywhere he wants to go." The first to respond was Akitsuki with his loud and confident voice.

  "Haha, I don't care either." said Ni Feng.

  "Yafeng, you are our guide, where do you want to go? We'll just follow you." Nixin gave the final notice.

  "Oh." Yafeng responded weakly, it seemed that his idea of acting alone was not going to work out. So he said: "I heard from classmates that there are some small stalls with good snacks up ahead, want to go?"

  "Alright." Jian also replied on behalf of everyone else.

  The elegant wind brought a group of handsome guys to the snack stall, and the spectacular scenery along the way is not worth mentioning.

  Yafeng bought a lot of squid balls, and the handsome guys also followed suit to enjoy them greatly. Of course, a certain magnificent big brother and his wooden followers were excluded.

  "Mr. Jakubei, aren't you going to eat?" asked Yakaze, skewering an octopus dumpling.

  "This kind of unpretentious thing is what I like."

  Tsuba's words were cut off by a sudden octopus ball stuffed into his mouth by Yafeng, who only wanted to make Tsuba eat this unpretentious thing but didn't expect the current pose to be so ambiguous. Yafeng's mouth corners rose in amusement, enjoying the situation. Ken was tangled up on the side, while Niji smiled but had a moment of stiffness. Shiroishi looked slightly displeased, and as for Katsuragi, please ignore him.

  Tsubaki looked at Akane standing in front of him, feeding him takoyaki, and his heart skipped a beat. The unassuming takoyaki he thought was just ordinary now seemed delicious.

  "Hey, doesn't it taste good?" Yafeng asked with relish, completely ignoring the awkwardness from earlier. "Huatian, you have some too." He said, handing another one to Huatian.

  "Yes." Kaede nodded and took over.

  "Hehe, Yafeng is really considerate." Nifē said with a hint of implication.

  "Yes indeed, Yafeng is really considerate." Shiroishi followed with a sentence that intentionally put emphasis on "considerate".

  "Hehe, that's right, our family's Ya Feng has always been like this." Nian Zu followed with a pleased smile.

  "Yu Shi." Jian also called out with a hint of warning.

  "Hmm, what's wrong? Does Jian have a problem too?" Ninxia cleverly chose to pretend to be stupid.

  "It's nothing." Jian said gritting his teeth.

  This time, Jian You was defeated again.

  Yahiko seemed to have not understood their conversation, still enjoying his food with relish. Tsuba also didn't react much, only raising the corners of his mouth a few degrees.

  After dinner, Yafeng suggested going to the Maid Café of the Dance Society.

  Watching those girls in maid costumes from the dance club staring at them as soon as they came in, Yafeng's heart felt extremely pleased.

  "Sir, madam, what can I get for you?" Another beauty came over to ask, that sweet voice really made one's bones melt.

  "Sorry, we've already ordered." He continued to smile politely, but if you looked closely, you would notice the bulging veins on his hand.

  After that girl walked away, Yafeng burst out laughing, "Yu Shi Gege, aren't you the one who loves long-legged beauties the most? Why didn't you seem interested in them today?"

  "Yah Feng," Nian Zu said in a low growl, "You're doing this on purpose, aren't you?"

  "You guys are always enjoying being chased by those beauties, so today I'll bring you here to indulge in it. And those girls usually have to run far to see you, now that you're here, of course, they should get a good look." Yafeng said with an innocent and kind tone.

  Yafeng felt a sense of satisfaction in her heart as she watched the speechless crowd, while Renyu and others were thinking about how to make them forget this side of her.

  "Hehe, relax, it's not like you'll lose a piece of flesh if someone looks at you, just smile." Yafeng's heart grew even more joyful and his face smiled even brighter.

  "This is not something I would do, is it, Karasuma?" Tsubosaka said with disdain.

  "Yes."

  Yah Feng was speechless towards someone who had gotten too full of themselves and softly said: "Narcissist."

  "What was that? Ah-huh?" Kiyotsugu clearly heard Yafeng's words.

  "There's nothing much to say, you're just handsome." Yafeng said impatiently.

  "What's wrong, are you intoxicated by my good looks?" Traces of self-love in his question.

  "No," Yafeng hastily denied, "This young lady's aesthetic and your aesthetic are different, so this impossible thing doesn't need to be mentioned again."

  After being ridiculed, the person couldn't show their anger and had to endure it with a good face, no matter how good they looked. Meanwhile, the onlookers were in an extremely good mood, and even the dark clouds from before seemed to have been blown away.

  "Hehe, this coffee is really good!" Not Two smiled brightly.

  "Yes, it's not bad." said Shirishi.

  "I think so too, what about you, Yu Shi."

  Qian also threw a provocative glance at Ren Zu.

  "Heh, is that so? Now it seems not bad to drink, but who knows what's next, after all, everyone had their own views just now. Sometimes the facts are not as they seem on the surface, right, Jianye?" Nianzu said without showing any weakness.

  Ya Feng heard something unusual but it wasn't entirely clear.

  "Brother Yu Shi, what did you say?"

  "Coffee." Ninxu replied neatly.

  "Whatever." Yafeng fell silent, thinking that you're treating me like a three-year-old kid, but if you don't want to say anything, then forget it, anyway it has nothing to do with me.

  Others fell into their own thoughts and became quiet.
