Pokémon: What should I do? My father-in-law always wants to tear me apart

"What a thrilling afternoon!"

Ruan Yaoyao walked hurriedly on the road, a small hand as white as jade gently pressing on her plump and tall chest, as if only in this way could the heart that was beating wildly like a wild horse be calmed down a little.

She exhaled deeply, and her beautiful face was filled with relief.

It was obvious that Ruan Yaoyao was in a state of extreme fatigue at the moment.

She was panting heavily, and every breath seemed heavy and rapid, as if she had just experienced a long and difficult journey.

A layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and the beads of sweat were densely arranged like dewdrops on grass leaves in the morning.

However, this state is not just caused by physical fatigue, but more by excessive mental tension, and I haven't recovered even now.

In the afternoon match, Ruan Yaoyao was just about to lose the game because of being late.

The tension and pressure were like heavy shackles that tightly bound her body and mind.

Although if it really came to that, Ruan Tianli would definitely not sit idly by.

But in that case, Ruan Tianli would inevitably get into trouble and be known for using public power for personal gain. This was the result that Ruan Yaoyao was most reluctant to see.

During the game, the opponent just happened to judge that Ruan Yaoyao would send out Heart Scale Treasure, so he sent out a special form of Vulpix that was a combination of fairy and ice.

This undoubtedly brought a huge challenge to Ruan Yaoyao, but fortunately, Xinlinbao knew how to use Iron Head's skill to restrain Vulpix four times, and Vulpix's level was not very high, so he won with difficulty.

All in all, the game was safe and sound, but Ruan Yaoyao was still scared enough.

Those crystal clear beads of sweat sparkled brightly under the bright sunshine, like round and flawless pearls, slowly rolling down her smooth and delicate skin, making her look sweaty, delicate and lovely.

"I was almost eliminated directly because I was late for the competition.

Fortunately, the organizers set up a convenient passage for the contestants to use, otherwise the Bird's Nest would be so crowded that it would not be easy to squeeze in smoothly."

Lin Yi followed Ruan Yaoyao closely, muttering to himself, and at the same time stretched out his right hand and gently tapped Ruan Yaoyao's little head.

Ruan Yaoyao was caught off guard by his attack. She immediately covered her head with her hands, looked at Lin Yi in bewilderment, and asked suspiciously:

"What's going on?"

Lin Yi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a warm and gentle smile, and said slowly:

"Fortunately, your Heart Scale performed very well in this afternoon's match. Otherwise, considering your hasty participation, it would be difficult for you to display your true strength. So, you have to reward it well."

"That's true."

Ruan Yaoyao nodded in agreement and at the same time began to reflect on herself for forgetting such an important thing as the competition.

She slowly took out Heartscale's Poké Ball, her eyes full of tenderness and determination, and said softly: "I will definitely reward it when I go back later."

Ruan Yaoyao suddenly raised her head slowly, her eyes like bright stars were full of eagerness and anticipation, she looked at Lin Yi eagerly, like a pitiful kitten waiting to be fed.

She opened her mouth slightly, with a hint of urgency and desire in her voice, and asked softly, "Can we eat cake when we go back now?"

When Lin Yi heard Ruan Yaoyao's question, he lowered his head to check the time, then nodded slightly and responded:

"Yes. However, because we rushed to the competition venue, the delay caused the freezer to freeze for a little longer than scheduled. As a result, the taste of the cake base may change a little, but overall it shouldn't be a big problem. After we go back, I'll process it in two or three hours and it will be ready to eat."

"Huh? It's going to take that long?"

When Ruan Yaoyao heard that it would take another two or three hours before she could eat the cake, she immediately became like a flower hit by frost, with her head drooping and a look of loss on her face.

Her lips pursed slightly, her brows furrowed slightly, and her eyes dimmed, as if the expectations in her heart had instantly vanished into thin air.

That look makes people feel pity.

Lin Yi stared at Ruan Yaoyao's lonely and depressed look in front of him and couldn't help but smacked his lips.

He slowly bent down, leaned forward, and suddenly stretched out his hand to grab Ruan Yaoyao's face, which was as delicate as a newly bloomed flower, and began to knead it with a little force.

"Humph! Isn't it because you saw that so-called no-bake strawberry cheesecake on the Internet that I went to ask the pastry chef for advice? The production process of Western pastries like this is already very complicated and tedious!"

As Lin Yi spoke, the strength in his hands did not decrease at all.

"Okay, I'm sorry... Please stop pinching me..."

Ruan Yaoyao muttered timidly, her voice as thin as the buzzing of a mosquito or fly, with a hint of aggrieved and pleading tone in it.

Her watery eyes were sparkling with tears, and it looked like tears would burst out at any time.

Seeing this, Lin Yi finally loosened his hand, but a look of dissatisfaction appeared on his face, as if he was still immersed in the soft and delicate wonderful feeling when he touched Ruan Yaoyao's cheek just now.

His fingertips even couldn't help but make kneading movements in mid-air again, as if he was recalling the wonderful touch he had just experienced.

"Let's just order takeout tonight. I still have a cake to make, so I really don't have time to prepare dinner!"

Lin Yi raised his head slightly, his chin slightly raised, and a hint of determination appeared in his bright eyes.

"Yeah, okay!"

Ruan Yaoyao nodded gently, her big watery eyes twinkling with a faint light, as charming as the shining stars in the night.

"That way, by the time we have dinner in the evening, the cake will be almost done, and it can then be transformed into our dessert!"

Her pretty face was filled with a smile of longing and anticipation, as if she had already witnessed with her own eyes the mouth-watering exquisite cake being placed steadily before her.

Ever since Ruan Yaoyao finished the competition, neither of them planned to stay here any longer.

Logically speaking, Lin Yi should have stayed where he was and observed the performance of the other contestants so that he could remain highly alert to potential strong opponents.

But in his heart, instead of spending time and energy on those things, it would be more important and meaningful to cook delicious food for Yaoyao peacefully.
