Pokémon: I just became a Gym Leader, and Cynthia proposed to me.

Chapter 296 Family Reunion

Upon hearing that voice that haunted his dreams, Li Dazhuang trembled uncontrollably.

The others turned around immediately upon hearing the sound.

Hongye looked at everyone and immediately recognized Li Shuwen.

"Is that Shuwen? He's grown so much."

Li Shuwen, with tears streaming down his face, smiled at Hongye and said, "Mom, it's me."

Li Meining was a little flustered and didn't know how to greet them.

Hongye stepped forward, embraced Li Meining, smiled gently, and stroked Li Meining's head, saying:

"My little Ning, let Mom see if you've been eating well and growing up properly all these years."

Tears streamed down Li Meining's face. "Mom, I miss you so much."

Cynthia was a little conflicted, unsure of how to greet him.

Is it Cynthia, Li Shuwen's friend, or just plain cabbage...?

Wait a minute, Bai Cai isn't Li Shuwen's girlfriend anymore!

Cattleya watched Hongye and Li Dazhuang with great interest.

These days, she has heard a lot about Li Dazhuang's bad deeds from Li Meining.

She wanted to see how Hongye would teach the dejected Li Dazhuang a lesson.

However, Gadalia never expected that Li Meining's mother would be so beautiful.

However, in terms of appearance, Hongye is one point better looking than Li Shuwen when he didn't have the charm of a fairy.

After all, Hongye was only 28 years old when she passed away, a time when she was in the prime of her life.

Shi Lan was somewhat surprised, never expecting that the mist could actually give the body of a deceased person.

To allow the deceased to embrace their loved ones.

Shi Lan narrowed his eyes slightly; he knew all too well just how deep Li Dazhuang's love for his wife was.

The environment created by the mist is so favorable that it may actually be harmful to Li Dazhuang.

The appearance of the red leaves behind them suggests that she is someone who remains in the past.

On the journey of life, you can pause briefly to reminisce about the past.

But people must eventually set sail again to face the unknown challenges ahead.

Li Meining carefully held Hongye, worried that her strange strength would hurt Hongye.

"Mom, I'm sorry, if it weren't for me..."

Hongye gently interrupted her, "It's not your fault, Xiaoning, it's Mom's decision to give birth to you."

"Don't blame yourself. Eat well and grow up healthily. That's the greatest happiness for your mother."

Li Meining nodded vigorously, "Yes, I will, Mom. I've already set off to challenge the Kanto Alliance!"

"I'll try my best to bring a championship home!"

Hongye smiled and said, "I know our Xiaoning is the best."

Hongye looked at Li Shuwen, "Shuwen, come here quickly and let your mother take a good look at you."

Li Shuwen immediately went over, and Hongye reached out to stroke Li Shuwen's cheek.

"You've grown up, my child."

He squeezed Li Shuwen's arm again and nodded in satisfaction.

"That's good, you're as strong as your father was when he was young, so I'm relieved."

Li Dazhuang finally mustered his courage, forced a wry smile, and turned around.

"Red Leaf, I miss you so much~"

Hongye looked at Li Dazhuang and said, "Brother Dazhuang, you've gotten old. How have you been all these years?"

Li Dazhuang stepped forward, grabbed Hongye's hand, and his lips trembled.

"I'm sorry, Momiji. I haven't taken good care of myself, my two children, or my Pokémon all these years."

Hongye gently shook her head, leaving the two children aside.

She hugged Li Dazhuang's waist and buried her face in his chest.

"In my heart, Dazhuang is the best husband, the best father, and the best trainer. Stop running away, you can definitely do it!"

Inspired by these words, Li Dazhuang felt as if he had returned to his passionate youth.

"I understand, Hongye. I will eat well, train hard, and take good care of the two children in the days to come."

Hongye nodded in satisfaction, "This is the Dazhuang I like."

Li Dazhuang immediately let out a silly chuckle.

Cattleya pouted. She hadn't even disciplined the old man; had she just let him get away with it so gently?

As the red leaves unfurled, Li Dazhuang looked at Li Shuwen with loving eyes.

"Shuwen, thank you for taking care of Dad and my sister all these years."

Li Shuwen shook his head, "It's not hard work. Taking care of two idiots is quite easy."

Li Meining waved her fist, "My brother is the real idiot! I'm very smart, okay!"

Li Shuwen shrugged. What smart person would say they are smart?

Li Meining, you're so clever!

Li Dazhuang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Li Shuwen didn't expose his past. What a good son!

Seeing how harmonious the brother and sister got along, Hongye smiled happily.

Then she looked at Cynthia, and her eyes lit up.

"Shuwen, won't you introduce this beautiful young lady to me?"

Li Shuwen scratched his head. "Cynthia, she..."

Cynthia smiled and said, "Hello, Auntie. My name is Cynthia. I live in God and Harmony Town. I'm good friends with Shuwen."

Cynthia and Cabbage: This is the love game between her and Li Shuwen.

Cynthia didn't want to reveal it so quickly; beauty is meant to be savored.

Cattleya chimed in, "Yes, they're really good friends!"

Hongye smiled slightly, already understanding the relationship between Li Shuwen and Xilona.

Two young people enjoying the innocent taste of first love.

"From now on, please ask Cynthia to take good care of Shuwen. Shuwen, you should also take good care of Cynthia."

Cynthia nodded immediately, "Don't worry, Auntie, I will!"

Hongye gently stroked Li Meining's hair. "Xiaoning, Mommy wasn't there to watch you grow up, but Mommy believes that Xiaoning is a strong child."

"Mom is proud of you."

Li Meining burst into tears again, "Mom, I won't let you down!"

Hongye hugged Li Shuwen again and whispered in his ear:

"Shuwen, don't miss out on a girl as wonderful as Cynthia! Seize the opportunity and don't hesitate!"

"Don't let anyone else snatch it away!"

Li Shuwen smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mom, I will try my best."

Li Shuwen glanced at Cynthia, whose ear tips were slightly red.

Cynthia smiled at Li Shuwen without saying a word, but it seemed like she said everything.

A gentle breeze blew, and Hongye turned around to look at the mist behind her.

"It's almost time. I should go back to my world, Brother Dazhuang. I hope you can look forward and move forward."

"Don't let me become a burden to you..."

Li Dazhuang, visibly agitated, clenched his fists and shouted, "Hongye, how could you possibly be a burden to me! I..."

Under Hongye's gentle gaze, Li Dazhuang gave in.

He relaxed his fist with relief, revealing a bright smile.

"I understand. I will continue to fulfill the promise we made together when we were young!"

Hongye winked playfully, "Then let's make a deal, don't use this method to see me again."

"I will carry my share and move forward steadfastly."

Li Dazhuang opened his mouth, but no words came out.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Hongye's body slowly transformed into golden specks of light.

"Brother Dazhuang, Shuwen, Xiaoning, I'm so happy that our family can meet again. I'm so happy to see Shuwen and Xiaoning all grown up."

"Big Zhuang, take care of yourself."

Li Dazhuang silently shed tears, waving at the golden speck of light flying into the sky, "I will, Hongye~"

Thank you all for your continued support. I worked overtime to finish this, and I specifically chose 1314 as the update time.
