Chapter 227 Mingyi: I want to dye this thing yellow.
"Kathishia? That's a very nice name."
Although he didn't know why this Xenomorph Latias in front of him had such a Western-sounding name, Li Luochen didn't dwell on it too much. Instead, he continued, "Have you ordered coffee yet? If not, I'll order it for you. It's on me as an apology for being late."
"Huh? This...this is way too expensive!"
Katishia was also somewhat surprised by the young man who suddenly appeared before her.
He had just planned to have some coffee while waiting for the carnival to begin, but to his surprise, Li Luochen actually sat down opposite him and said it was an apology for being late...
To tell the truth.
Katishia was a little embarrassed.
She smoothed her long golden hair, her eyes slightly lowered, and her outstretched hand remained suspended in the air.
"that……"
Seeing that Li Luochen remained unmoved, Katishia turned her gaze to the waterway not far away and said softly, "The hand-kissing custom is a major tradition in our Odomare..."
Li Luochen then realized what was happening.
He lifted Katishia's right hand and gave it a gentle kiss.
"Haha, sorry, this is my first time in Odomare, and I'm a little unfamiliar with the local customs."
Li Luochen scratched the back of his head, gave an awkward laugh, and then called over a waiter: "Bring me two strawberry parfaits. Besides this dish, what other local specialties do you have here?"
"Do you want some craft wheat juice?"
The waiter offered a suggestion.
"Craft wheat juice..."
Li Luochen belatedly realized that it was 8+1, then looked at Katishia and asked, "Want some?"
"Um……"
Katishia thought for a moment before holding up one finger: "I...I'm not very good at drinking this, just a little bit is fine."
"How about some Gu Ming tea? Cough cough, no, well, how about two servings?"
After Li Luochen finished speaking, he realized that he had said something wrong. After correcting his words, he ordered food from the waiter.
"OK."
After the waiter finished writing down the bill, he showed it to Li Luochen: "The total is 328. Would you like to pay by card or cash?"
Scan this one.
Then Li Luochen took out a black card with a picture of a Dragonite printed on it.
This is the card that Yulongdu gave himself, saying that all the basic New Year's money he has received over the years, including in the future, is stored here.
"So, do you offer Pokémon care services? I'll leave my three Pokémon with you and pick them up later. Don't worry about any purchases during the trip; just swipe this card."
The transaction records will be notified, and Li Luochen is not worried that the other party will use the card fraudulently.
After Li Luochen handed the baby tortoise, baby giggles, and Cosmog to the waiter, he continued chatting with Katishia.
"Is Mr. Luo Chen also here for the carnival?"
Katishia rested her hands on her lap, her pointed, thin ears twitching as she asked the question, her gaze involuntarily falling on the square not far away.
"That's right, I have a friend who lives in Odomare. She told me about the carnival more than a month ago."
Li Luochen stroked the Master Ball, quietly gazing at Katishia.
【Host……】
The system suddenly appeared at that moment.
"What? Can't you see I'm on a date? Unless it's something really important, just stay put."
When Li Luochen saw that the system wanted to speak, he directly interrupted it.
He was chatting with Occultias right now!
You little system, don't get involved at a time like this!
Don't force me to slap you when I'm happiest!
【T_T】
The system was on the verge of tears.
That wretched host!
However, the system failed to emerge as a result.
Looking at the area not far away...
"Sister Gadalia, does Luo Chenbao like blonde girls?"
Mingyi felt something was off.
Why are so many of the girls Li Luochen encounters blonde?
Blonde hair + xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), this is the third one already!
"Yeah, I think so. I just heard him say that he does like blondes, so what?"
As Gadriya was using her superpowers to style her hair, she looked Mingyi up and down at her words: "If you want to dye your hair blonde, Mingyi, I don't think it's necessary."
"Why? Doesn't Luo Chenbao like blonde hair?"
Mingyi took out her phone, opened the camera, switched to selfie mode, and then pulled up her long, jet-black hair: "If I dyed this black hair blonde, would it make Luo Chenbao notice me more?"
"Mingyi, there's something I want to tell you."
Cattleya yawned, then slowly said, "Be wary of the numerous exceptions; blondes are really prone to becoming losers."
"hateful……"
Mingyi's face immediately fell: "How many is this now?"
"Sixteen, I guess."
Caldelia roughly calculated and found that this was the sixteenth.
"Huh? How did you calculate that? Show me!"
Mingyi was slightly puzzled, then started counting on her fingers: "You, Shi Xintong, Huoyan, Wanlong, and Liuqia, and the future Lillie, that's only six, isn't it? How come it's sixteen for you?"
"What the hell?"
Cattleya covered her mouth and chuckled: "Charizard, Dragonite, Guradon, Skyfire, Naganadel, Plutonium, Lugia, Styropod, Thunder Drum, Hoopa, Gyarados, Pelipper, Cosmog, Totodile, Larvitar. Isn't she the sixteenth?"
"Pokémon?! You mean this blonde beauty is a Pokémon?"
Mingyi suddenly realized something when she thought of Latias, who would turn into Kanon.
No wonder Li Luochen specially changed into a formal suit.
So you wanted to catch Pokémon!
So she's jealous of Pokémon?
Forget about that!
Mingyi immediately felt that there was no problem.
On the contrary, I think Li Luochen should have made things clear sooner.
I worried for nothing!
"What, do you like my baby that much?"
Seeing Mingyi's fluctuating mood, Gadriya casually asked.
"No way! Someone like Li Luochen... I... I don't like him at all!"
Mingyi quickly waved her hand, saying that she was just worried that Li Luochen would be deceived by a bad woman, and as a good friend, she had to help keep an eye on things, otherwise what would happen if half of the Minrong Dojo were taken away in the future?
"Yeah?"
Gadriya looked at Mingyi with a half-smile.
He then took out his phone and played a recording.
"No way! Someone like Li Luochen... I... I don't like him at all!"
"Hey! Catharia! What's wrong with you?!"
Mingyi was at a loss.
But the next moment, Cattleya pinched her cheeks, causing her to whimper continuously: "Waaah..."
Meanwhile, on Li Luochen's side...
"So you're a gym leader! You must have a lot of challengers every day, right?"
Katishia looked on with longing when she learned that Li Luochen was the gym leader.
"Not really, but you do run into a lot of people."
Li Luochen nodded slightly, then took out his phone and opened QQ: "We've been chatting for so long, is it convenient to exchange contact information?"
