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

By the time everything was done, the sun had already risen, illuminating the entire city.

Lin Guochang stretched out his arms, stretched his body, and slowly walked out of the police station.

He glanced at Lin Yi beside him and couldn't help but say:

"Well, now you've squandered your father's several months' salary in one go!"

Although Lin Guochang's tone was somewhat teasing, he did not mean to blame him.

However, Lin Yi frowned, as if he was thinking about something.

Seeing this, Lin Guochang's mouth twitched slightly.

"Hey, hey, are you kidding? Aren't you satisfied yet? Those people were beaten so badly, do you want to make this matter worse?"

Lin Yi shook his head gently and explained:

"That's not the case. After this incident, those bullies should not dare to bully others easily anymore. But what I am worried about is whether similar things will happen again in the future? If I am not here, will they come back again?"

"Alright, alright, just speak up, what do you want to do?"

An Qing naturally understood what Lin Yi was thinking. She stretched out her fair hand and gently rubbed Lin Yi's head.

While Lin Yi's attention was distracted, she quickly ruffled his hair until it looked like a bird's nest, then nodded with satisfaction.

Lin Yi seemed to finally realize something. He straightened his body, bowed deeply to the couple with a serious face, and apologized sincerely:

"First of all, I must apologize to you. My willfulness has indeed caused you a lot of trouble."

"!!!"

The couple looked at each other, their eyes filled with astonishment and disbelief.

What the hell? What the hell… What the hell!

Lin Yi actually gave in? And took the initiative to admit his mistake?!

"That...baby son."

An Qing squatted down so that her eyes were level with Lin Yi's, her lips slightly parted, wanting to say something but not knowing where to start.

"It's just... we were wrong to leave you alone in this city, and... "

"Why don't you go to the hospital and have your brain checked? Maybe you injured your head when you were fighting with those guys?"

Lin Guochang still said it directly.

"Tsk!"

An Qing glared at Lin Guochang fiercely, secretly blaming him for saying such things so bluntly.

However, Lin Guochang waved his hand nonchalantly, indicating that he didn't care.

"What are you afraid of? Don't we know what our son is like? He won't care."

Sure enough, after the couple was speechless and misunderstood that there was something wrong with his brain, Lin Yi looked at An Qing and said.

"Actually, I'm busy and I want your help. Mom, I remember you know a lot of people in the Magic City, right?"

The couple was stunned, looked at each other again with tacit understanding, and nodded in agreement.

"...Yeah, it tastes just right."

"It's just that the map of Yan State is a little short. Next time, please lay out the groundwork a little longer. I really like to see you give in."

Lin Yi: “You guys step on…”

……

That night, outside the airport.

"I say, you really don't want to go to Qinghai City with me to study?"

Lin Yi looked at the girl in front of him and invited her again.

"If I leave, those people might bully you again like before. And I can help your family settle down there."

His tone was sincere and full of expectation.

"No, I appreciate your kindness, but I don't want to cause any trouble."

Mi Yu shook his head gently, his eyes looking into the distance, as if recalling some bad memories.

Recalling Lin Yi's almost crazy eyes and hoarse anger yesterday, she couldn't help but reach out and touch the hearing aid on her ear, her expression a little gloomy.

"Besides, in a year or two, I will be completely deaf, so there will be no point in going to trainer school."

Mi Yu's voice was full of helplessness and sadness, as if he had lost hope for the future.

However, Lin Yi did not give up.

He took a step forward, stared closely into Mi Yu's eyes, and said solemnly:

"If you can't hear me, I'll learn sign language." His expression was extremely serious, without any hint of joking.

"I always keep my word."

Lin Yi added firmly, as if promising something to Mi Yu.

Hearing these words, Mi Yu felt an indescribable emotion in his heart.

She stood there in a daze, her eyes revealing complex emotions.

She slightly opened her lips, wanting to accept Lin Yi's invitation, but her throat seemed to be blocked by something and no sound came out.

However, the inferiority and self-esteem that was difficult to eradicate in his heart made Mi Yu unable to speak no matter what.

At this moment, Mi Yu was extremely conflicted.

On the one hand, she was worried that she would become a burden to Lin Yi;

On the other hand, she obviously wanted to agree to Lin Yi because she felt really safe around him.

At this contradictory moment, she didn't know how to make a choice...

Lin Yi was born into a fairly wealthy family. Whether judging from his daily food, clothing, words and deeds, we can infer that his future achievements will surely be limitless.

And I? I am just an ordinary person, nothing compared to him.

I'm afraid that someone like me will only become a stumbling block on his way forward...

Just as Mi Yu was lost in her thoughts, something suddenly caught her sight.

"This is......"

Lin Yi stuffed the business card into Mi Yu's hand and gave her a gentle smile.

"This is the business card of the owner of the breeding house in the center of the Magic City. I have already told her in advance. Didn't you say before that you wanted a Ditto as your first Pokémon?

Wait until the summer before your senior year of high school, then call her and she will give you a Ditto egg for free."

"what?"

Mi Yu was stunned for a moment. She stared blankly at the valuable business card in her hand, totally not knowing what to do.

"Why...why are you so nice to me..."

"Because I think that interfering with other people's choices as an outsider last time was not a good thing."

Lin Yi stared at Mi Yu quietly and spoke softly.

"But I think you are a good person, and good people should be rewarded. So I think, at least, you should have the right to make your own choice."

"My own...choice..."

Mi Yu covered his chest and muttered.

What is going on? What is causing this throbbing in my heart?

She didn't understand, nor could she comprehend the complex emotional changes in her heart at this moment, but she clearly felt an unprecedented warmth and care.

This feeling made her feel a little overwhelmed, but also made her full of expectations for the future.

"So, Miyu, if you really don't want to be a trainer, then why did you go to the trainer school?"

Lin Yi stretched out his hand and looked at Mi Yu with firm and gentle eyes.

"Come on, make your choice. No matter what the choice is, as long as it is a choice that you have no regrets about, then it is the right choice."

Looking at Lin Yi's outstretched hand, Mi Yu's eyes lit up with a strange light.

She slowly raised her hand, as if trying to grasp the courage and determination that belonged to her.

However, just as her hand was about to touch Lin Yi's hand, a strong sense of self-doubt surged into her heart.

She suddenly stopped and put her hand back to its original place.

No, I am the one who is being saved. To Lin Yi, I am a complete burden.

She silently told herself in her heart that she should not bring more burden to Lin Yi because of her selfishness.

She didn't want to be a burden to him, and she didn't want him to get into trouble because of her.

Mi Yu bit her lip, trying hard to control the impulse in her heart.

She took a deep breath and shook her head gently to express her refusal.

I don’t want to be a burden!

If I could be better...

Suddenly, that self-esteem seemed to be ignited and burned fiercely, making the eyes that were originally as silent as dead ashes instantly glow with countless dazzling rays of light.

"I will definitely work harder to become an excellent person. Before that, are you willing to wait for me?"

Mi Yu, full of expectation and hope, slowly raised his head and asked softly in a gentle and earnest tone.

Every move she made was so cautious, as if she was afraid of breaking the beauty of the moment. She was so gentle that it made people feel pity and love for her.

"Uh, well..."

Please forgive Lin Yi at this moment. As he has not slept for nearly twenty-four hours since last night, his body has been exhausted, and his brain has been in a highly operational state. He really does not have the extra energy to understand the deeper meaning of Mi Yu's words.

He simply thought that Mi Yu was rejecting him in a tactful way, and couldn't help feeling embarrassed and scratched his hair subconsciously.

However, when he heard the other party's affirmative answer, an indescribable excitement suddenly surged up in Mi Yu's heart.

She herself couldn't explain where this inexplicable throbbing came from, but she just felt extremely happy!

"It's settled then, you must wait for me!"

Mi Yu finally revealed the playfulness and liveliness unique to girls of this age. She clenched her little fists tightly as if to cheer herself up, then turned around and ran away like a happy little deer.

Her back looked full of joy and happiness.

Lin Yi just stood there looking at the figure's back, not knowing what was going on.
