42 -42 Najia’s Song_1
“Xiao Ji, awake?
Time for dinner~”
“Ji!”
Feng Yuan laughed as he picked up Xiao Ji, who had rushed over to him, and placed it on the small table.
Seeing Najia gazing blankly at him, he picked it up and placed it next to Xiao Ji.
Najia gave a slight bow to Feng Yuan, as if expressing an apology.
“Big bro, if only you could learn his cooking skills~”
“Quit nagging!
Go eat your food!”
At the dinner table, Feng Yuan smiled knowingly as he watched Xiao Shuang bicker with Qi Chen and lowered his head to eat his own meal.
After dinner, Qi Chen and Feng Yuan prepared to return to school.
Xiao Shuang, with her hands behind her back, leaned forward and said,
“Do you want me to take you back to the school~”
“Enough, you’re about to go back to school yourself.
Hurry up and get ready for that.
Mom, we’re off.”
“Be careful on the road.”
As they left the house, Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan, who had Najia on one shoulder and the Dreaming Dragon Baby lying on the other, and joked,
“You’re looking like a rich young master heading to cram into a bus, you’re likely to attract a crowd~”
“Oh stop it, which rich young master looks like this.”
“You do~”
Feng Yuan cast a glance at Qi Chen and walked on in silence.
Qi Chen scratched his head, unsure what to say when suddenly Najia on Feng Yuan’s shoulder began to sing.
Hearing the slightly familiar tune, Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan in surprise and said,
“What kind of ultimate move is that?”
“What ultimate move?”
“That song, what effect does it have?”
Feng Yuan turned around and touched Qi Chen’s forehead, saying,
“You don’t have a fever.
Why are you talking nonsense?
Ordinary songs don’t have special effects.”
“Isn’t that the song you sometimes sing?”
Najia stopped singing and looked at Qi Chen with a puzzled expression.
Feng Yuan looked at Najia, somewhat puzzled and said softly,
“Don’t mind him.
But you do sing beautifully~ Didn’t remember the rest of the tune, did you?
I’ll teach you when we get back~”
“Gina~”
When they returned to the dormitory, Feng Yuan found a skinny young man standing in front of his dorm door, with something placed at his feet, as if waiting for a long time.
Seeing Feng Yuan’s return, the young man quickly walked over and said dissatisfiedly to Feng Yuan,
“Where did you run off to?
You didn’t answer your phone when I called you!”
“I was looking up some research.
What’s the matter?”
“Gina~”
Feng Yuan, a bit puzzled, took out his phone and saw that it had run out of battery and automatically shut down at some point.
Realizing that Feng Yuan’s phone screen wouldn’t light up, Hong Zhi sighed and looked at Najia with a smile on his face.
“You’re really something, huh?
It’s okay now, right?”
“I guess not just yet.
What did you need me for?”
“Gina?”
Hearing Feng Yuan, Hong Zhi turned, picked up the bag he had put by the wall, and handed it to Najia, saying,
“I bought some gifts for it.
Spirit Beasts that resemble dolls are usually from the Mystic Series, so I’ve prepared some things that Mystic Series Spirit Beasts like.”
“Gina~”
“Come on in first.
You’re not in a rush to go back to school, are you?”
Feng Yuan said as he took the bag and walked into the room.
Hong Zhi hurriedly followed.
Just as he closed the door, Najia leaped from Feng Yuan’s shoulder, floated over to Hong Zhi, who hurriedly caught it and mimicked Feng Yuan by carefully placing Najia on his shoulder.
He then reached into the bag and took out various little trinkets and toys to hand them to Najia.
Feng Yuan put the Dreaming Dragon Baby on the bed and said,
“I’m going to take a shower.
Are you coming?”
“Ji!”
“Tsk, you really don’t like to stay clean.”
Seeing Xiao Ji vehemently shaking its head, Feng Yuan didn’t force it and turned to take clothes out of the closet.
Watching Feng Yuan’s actions, Hong Zhi put down what he was holding and said to Feng Yuan,
“I’ll go back first.”
“Gina~”
Seeing Najia, who had been placed on the bed, jump off and tug at his pant leg, Hong Zhi hesitated for a moment, then picked up Najia and continued to play with it.
Qi Chen put down his phone and looked at Hong Zhi, puzzled, and said,
“If you can’t bear to leave it, why don’t you take Najia with you?
It seems Feng Yuan has no plans to contract with it.”
“I’m afraid if I take it back, it will revert to how it was before.”
Hong Zhi said with a smile, handing the little ornaments to Najia, watching it dress itself up.
Suddenly, he realized what had been said and looked at Qi Chen in surprise,
“Wait a minute!
You said its name is Najia!”
“That’s what Feng Yuan called it.
Do you know what kind of Spirit Beast it is?”
Qi Chen put down his phone and curiously watched Hong Zhi, whose face turned slightly red as he said,
“I don’t know, never heard of it.”
“Gina…”
“Eh?
What’s wrong?
Don’t be sad, did I say something wrong?”
Seeing Najia’s smile gradually fade to a sorrowful expression, Hong Zhi hurriedly tried to console it.
When Feng Yuan came out after his shower, he found Hong Zhi continuously comforting Najia, with Xiao Ji occasionally saying something, looking somewhat puzzled.
“What are you guys doing?”
“I accidentally said something wrong…”
Hong Zhi lifted his head and explained, then tried to make Najia smile again.
Feng Yuan walked toward Qi Chen with a puzzled look and asked,
“What did he say to make it like this?”
“I asked if he knew what kind of Spirit Beast Najia was, and when he said he didn’t know, Najia became like this.”
“So, that’s what happened…”
Feng Yuan looked somewhat speechless at Hong Zhi.
Qi Chen was a bit confused.
Feng Yuan went over and softly sang that familiar nursery rhyme.
Najia lifted its head and just looked at Feng Yuan, and when the song was over, Feng Yuan said with a smile to Najia,
“Let the past go, see how much he cares about you~”
“Gina…”
Facing Hong Zhi, Najia reluctantly smiled, and Hong Zhi, feeling a bit distressed, said,
“Don’t force yourself to smile, I’m sorry, I spoke without thinking…”
“Gina…”
Najia shook its head and gently placed its little hand on the back of Hong Zhi’s hand.
Seeing that Najia no longer forced a smile but was also not looking sad anymore, Hong Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.
He hurriedly said goodbye to everyone, and with one last reluctant look at Najia, Hong Zhi turned and left the dormitory.
Feng Yuan sat on the bed, picked up Xiao Ji, and said softly,
“I’ll teach you how to sing ‘Homeward’~”
“Gina~”
It only took a few repetitions for Najia to learn ‘Homeward’, the song.
Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan with a puzzle said,
“Is it a Mystic Series Spirit Beast?”
“Pretty much.”
Feng Yuan said, then lay down on the bed and said somewhat helplessly,
“The school competition starts tomorrow, what a drag.”
“Then you should go to sleep earlier!
And don’t get up in the middle of the night to sing!
Be careful or someone might come banging on your door!”
Recalling being woken up by Feng Yuan last night, Qi Chen said with some dissatisfaction.
Feng Yuan laughed and took out his phone, saying to Xiao Ji,
“Xiao Ji, come here~ I’ll teach you how to use a smartphone~”
“You really are…”
Qi Chen was at a loss for words about what to make of Feng Yuan.
“Wake up!
It’s time for class!”
“Mm…
Let me sleep a bit more…
Ow!
Xiao Ji, what are you doing!”
“…Ji?”
Feng Yuan pushed Xiao Ji away and rubbed his eyes, looking at Qi Chen displeasedly, he said,
“Why did you smash my face with Xiao Ji?”
“We have class!”
Watching Feng Yuan freshening up, Qi Chen couldn’t help but complain,
“Look at the trouble you’ve caused!
Xiao Ji must have been addicted to playing on the smartphone all night!”
“…Ji…”
“Really, I thought you’d be more reliable, but you got tricked by him so easily.”
Qi Chen complained while picking up Xiao Ji and placing it on the bed.
Feng Yuan, done freshening up, saw Xiao Ji still looking drowsy and half-awake, and said with resignation,
“Xiao Ji, you just rest in the dorm today.”
“Ji!”
Xiao Ji, slightly more alert, tried to shuffle into Feng Yuan’s arms, but its paw slipped and it fell straight off the bed,
“Ji!”
“Ao…”
Seeing Xiao Ji struggling on the floor, Dreaming Dragon Baby seemed unable to bear watching.
It coiled its body and, with some effort, carried Xiao Ji to Feng Yuan’s head.
Feng Yuan, somewhat helplessly, took Xiao Ji down and said to Dreaming Dragon Baby,
“Don’t do that, it might fall off my head in its current state.”
“Ao?”
