"I am indeed here to pick you up, but I never said that I am from Avalanche. The reason I came to pick you up is because I received a commission. Well, I am a mercenary, a mercenary who does things for money." Shen Ye looked at the two of them with a smile. They were so innocent and cute.
Listening to Shen Ye's words, Yuffie and Sonon looked at each other, then huddled together and whispered, stealing a glance at him from time to time.
"What should we do, Senior? We seem to have been exposed." Sonon's tone was a little anxious. "Although he was hired by Avalanche to pick us up, he probably didn't tell them his true identity. Will he tell Shinra after he returns?"
"Don't panic, Sonon, he shouldn't be that kind of person." Although she said so, Yuffie's eyes were full of panic. When she thought about the trouble she got on her first mission, the heart of this underage girl was beating like a drum.
"How about...we take him..." After thinking for a while, Sonon made a move.
"Isn't this a bad idea?" Yuffie looked at Shen Ye in embarrassment. The other party had just saved her, and she still had a good impression of him in her heart.
Shen Ye was already lying on the quilt, but the room was so small that although Yuffie and Sonon tried to keep their voices down, he still heard their conversation. He covered himself with the quilt, changed into a comfortable position, and said, "Don't worry, you can discuss it slowly, but it's better to wait until I fall asleep first, so that it will be easier for you to start."
Realizing that his words were heard by the other party, Sonon scratched his head in embarrassment, and then looked at his senior for help, but Yuffie had already covered herself with the quilt and said in a muffled voice: "I'm already asleep, I didn't say anything just now."
"Oh!" Looking at the senior who was pretending to be an ostrich, Sonon sighed helplessly, then lay down in the corner with his bedding in his arms.
The room soon fell into silence, as if everyone had fallen asleep. Just as Shen Ye half-closed his eyes and was about to dream, Yuffie's voice rang out: "Sonon, are you asleep?"
"Not yet!" Sonon opened his eyes and asked, "Senior, what's wrong?"
Yuffie said faintly: "I didn't eat anything at night. I'm hungry."
After hearing Yuffie mention this, Sonon felt a little hungry as he hadn't had dinner yet.
"I'll go find something to eat, senior, please hold on for a while." Sonon got up, opened the door and was about to go out. At this time, he heard Shen Ye say, "Wait a minute, I..."
"I understand. I'll bring you one too." Before Shen Ye could finish his words, Sonon closed the door.
"I was going to say that I have some food here." Shen Ye held up the snacks he had just taken out of the system space, then sighed and said, "Well, it seems that I don't need it anymore."
"I need it." Seeing the snacks in Shen Ye's hand, Yuffie suddenly jumped up from the bed and pounced on them like a hungry tiger...
When Sonon walked in with the bread and porridge he had bought from the hotel owner with great difficulty, he saw his senior sitting in front of a pile of snacks and eating heartily.
"Senior, what's going on?" Sonon asked in a lost voice, looking at Yuffie with bulging cheeks.
Yuffie really had no time to speak, so she pointed at Shen Ye with her finger holding a potato chip, indicating that he had brought it.
Sonon immediately looked at Shen Ye with dissatisfaction and said, "Why didn't you say anything just now?"
"I was just about to say something when you interrupted me." Shen Ye spread his hands innocently. After seeing that the other party fell silent, he continued to watch Yuffie eat.
I have to say, cute girls are cute no matter what they do...
…
"Shen, wake up!"
Early the next morning, Shen Ye heard Yuffie's noisy voice, and at the same time he felt a pair of small hands pinching his face.
Waving away the hand that was pinching his face, Shen Ye opened his eyes and saw Yuffie's cute little face, leaning in front of him, blinking.
It seemed that it was because he saved her yesterday, and it also seemed to be the effect of the rich snack meal last night, Yuffie's attitude towards him had changed significantly, and she seemed very intimate.
So when she saw him open his eyes, Yuffie held his arm and dragged him out of the "bed".
"Hurry up and get up, we have to leave."
"It's just dawn at this time, right?" Shen Ye turned his head and squinted to look out the window. The dawn sunlight had not yet illuminated the entire town.
"It's getting late. When I was in Wutai, I had already finished training by this time." Yuffie pressed Shen Ye's shoulders and shook him hard, as if trying to wake him up completely.
"Okay, okay, stop shaking." Shen Ye felt that his brain was about to be shaken evenly. He pushed Yuffie away and stood up muttering.
"Why can't I see Sonon?" Shen Ye looked around the room. The corner where Sonon slept last night was very clean.
"He went to buy breakfast. After all, he felt a little embarrassed for eating so many delicious dishes during your hospitality last night." Yuffie didn't dare to say that she was embarrassed, after all, she ate the most last night. Then, while talking, she pushed Shen Ye to the bathroom, "Hurry up and wash your face and brush your teeth. We'll leave after breakfast."
In the bathroom, the toothbrush was ready. It looked like it was made by Yuffie, which made Shen Ye look back at her. However, the little girl was not at the door, but sitting on the bed, humming an inexplicable song.
After Shen Ye finished washing up, Sonon also returned to the room with some food. The three of them quickly finished their meal and then left the room to prepare to set off.
However, when they were about to set off, something went wrong with Yuffie. Because of motion sickness, she actually suggested following them and walking to Midgar.
Sonon pushed the motorcycle he had picked up from the wilderness bandits last night and kept persuading Yuffie, but the little girl just didn't want to get on the bike and walked out with her bag on her back.
In the end, there was no other choice, so Shen Ye bought a Chocobo from the Chocobo merchant in the village and let her ride.
"Senior, how can you be so embarrassed?" Seeing Yuffie happily accepting it and riding on the Chocobo, Sonon felt embarrassed and quickly took out all the money he had and handed it to Shen Ye.
But Shen Ye just shook his head and didn't accept it.
"You take it. We'll find a way to supply you with the rest when we get to Midgar." Seeing that Shen Ye refused to take it, Sonon said again.
Seeing Sonon's actions, Yuffie's face turned red. She seemed to think that this was not a good idea, as if she was too polite. She took out a magic crystal from the cute Moogle's waist bag with some pain, and then made up her mind to send the magic crystal to Shen Ye: "Here, this is for you. It should be worth a chocobo, right?"
Seeing the pain written all over Yuffie's face, Shen Ye pretended to really take it, and Yuffie's face shrank nervously.
"Forget it, it's just a Chocobo." Shen Ye smiled and shook his head, withdrew his hand, then started the motorcycle and slowly drove towards the village entrance. The speed and endurance of the Chocobo were of course far inferior to those of a machine, so he had to wait for her.
Yuffie then happily put the magic crystal back into Moogle's waist bag, then controlled the Chocobo to follow Shen Ye, humming the Chocobo song happily:
"Chocobo, I am Chocobo~
You are also a chocobo~ He is also a chocobo~"
