Chapter 390 Before the Chapter of Romance (1)
After some time, Mu Feng left the regimental commander's office.
Falga remained seated, sipping tea with a cheerful smile, leisurely reviewing the documents on his desk.
The sharp gaze he had just given was now hidden in his eyes, as if the arrangements made in the office had nothing to do with him.
Mu Feng silently mourned for the fools for three seconds in his heart.
Calculating the time, there are still four days until the Flower Festival.
During this period, his mission was to stay in Qingquan Town under the guise of maintaining order and to closely investigate any suspicious caravans passing by.
However, there was a stated reason: a personal one, as he was invited to attend Diona's third birthday party.
Then, it's reasonable to send them to Qingquan Town for a few days as well, right?
Thinking this, Mu Feng left the Knights' Order and was about to go home when he noticed a sneaky shadow behind him.
Seeing that Mu Feng seemed to have noticed something, the figure suddenly shuddered and quickly withdrew its protruding head back behind the wall.
Unfortunately, the stalker apparently failed to notice that her excessively long hair ornament had actually given her away completely.
Mu Feng suppressed a laugh, pretending not to notice the pair of red rabbit ear hair ornaments floating in mid-air, and silently turned his head back.
Then, pretending nothing was wrong, he walked down the steps next to the Knights as usual.
However, he deliberately sped up a little bit today.
This meant that by the time the scout knight hiding behind the wall peeked out, calculating Mu Feng's usual pace, his figure had already disappeared from where he should have appeared.
Amber no longer cared about hiding and quickly ran towards the stone steps, cautiously peeking down.
However, there was nothing except a slight breeze.
"Oh dear, how did I lose them? What a bad day..."
Amber spat out the strands of hair that had blown into her mouth with some annoyance, stomped her foot lightly, and her little face immediately fell.
By the wind god above, this is not the wind she is looking for.
That shouldn't be the case. Could it be that her Mu Feng database needs updating? She clearly remembers that he walks at this speed.
The depressed girl fell into deep self-doubt, so much so that she didn't even notice someone approaching from behind.
"Oh? What did you lose track of?"
A voice came from behind her, and Amber, lost in her own thoughts, blurted out the answer without thinking.
"Oh dear, I just lost them..."
The girl had barely uttered half of her subconscious answer when she suddenly sensed something was amiss and paused.
Wait, that voice... doesn't it sound familiar?
Amber's heart skipped a beat. She slowly turned her face and immediately revealed a smile that was a mixture of guilt and embarrassment.
"Haha... Brother Mufeng, good afternoon."
"I mean, it seems like my Windwing is about to have baby Windwings, and I'm in a hurry to go home with it... Ahahaha..."
The girl's voice grew weaker and weaker, and her eyes kept glancing to the side, as if she was about to make a run for her life at any moment.
Hey, can we reconcile?
"Hmph, didn't that prospective scout knight just desert her post so quickly? Now, isn't she..."
It's time to take stock of the overall situation?
Mu Feng moved closer, a warm smile on his face.
Reconciliation? My dear Miss Amber, are you joking?
He has always been a magnanimous person and never holds grudges.
Because if there's a grudge, it's usually settled on the spot, not overnight.
Fifteen minutes later, Amber, rubbing her battered face, walked angrily beside Mu Feng, kicking pebbles.
Damn it, Amber will remember this grudge!
The girl looked at the cheerful guy next to her and got angry. In a fit of pique, she twisted his fingers and pinned them to her own.
Mu Feng noticed Amber's little actions, smiled helplessly, and gently squeezed her soft little hand as a way of comforting her.
"So, my dear prospective scout knight, what brings you to go through all this trouble by following a lowly knight like me?"
Amber pouted, ignoring the other person's teasing words, but the title "Dear Miss Preparatory Reconnaissance Knight" still made the corners of her mouth turn up slightly.
Of course, it would be even better if the preparation could be removed.
"You idiot, Brother Mufeng, don't you think you've forgotten something?"
The girl stretched out her fair index finger and poked Mu Feng's arm in dissatisfaction, then spread her hand and waved it in front of him.
This action left Mu Feng somewhat bewildered for a moment, but he soon realized what was going on.
"Look at me, I was all prepared, I just forgot in my busy schedule."
Mu Feng patted his head, took out an exquisite badge from his pocket, and carefully handed it to Amber.
The badge is shaped like Earl Rabbit, and is bright red overall, with a pair of wind wings on its back.
It's obviously prepared especially for a certain rabbit girl.
"Here you go. I wish you good luck in your third competition."
This has become a little tradition between the two of them: every year during the Flower Festival, they exchange a small gift.
Last year's design featured a pair of wind wings printed with Earl Rabbit's image.
In return, he received a small rabbit Earl doll hand-knitted by the girl. The doll is very small and is currently sitting quietly in the small hanging basket on his bedside table.
Amber's beautiful chestnut brown eyes lit up immediately, but she couldn't be bought off by such a small gift at this moment!
"Hmph... What is he? I bet he's busy looking for other pretty girls, you idiot, Mu Feng."
The girl deliberately dragged out the last syllable of her voice, clearly indicating that she was jealous.
With so many people around, she still felt a bit threatened.
But despite saying that, Amber carefully put the badge into the small pocket closest to her chest.
Well, she reluctantly accepted it; it definitely wasn't something she would lock away in a closet three layers deep at home, only taking it out to look at before bed and then excitedly rolling around on the bed.
Then, she took out a sachet embroidered with a four-leaf clover.
The sachet is grass green, with brighter colors for the four-leaf clover pattern, and it faintly emits the fragrance of dandelion and sedum.
Of course, she had her own ulterior motives behind this.
Rabbits and four-leaf clovers make a perfect match!
"Here, take this. Wear this and you'll get a good night's sleep."
The girl handed it over casually, but Mu Feng noticed several dark red secondary blood spots on her fingertips.
Those were clearly marks left after being pricked with a needle.
The little girl is stubborn, but she's incredibly soft-hearted.
As for the tendency to say one thing and mean another, it's probably a common problem that comes from spending too much time with a certain blue-haired noble lady.
"Idiot Amber, give me your hand, I'll take you to get your medicine applied."
"Hmph, no need. If you want to thank this scout knight, remember to come cheer me on during the match."
"By the way, you're allowed to come alone."
The girl waved her little fist and bared her teeth in a cute but fierce manner.
"If you don't come, I'll... bite you!"
Even a rabbit will bite when cornered.
