Chapter 36: Holiday Moving Trouble
"Look at his worthless smile. Does it look like he's learned his lesson?"
A tall figure stood on the manor's terrace, with a commanding view that captured the entire scene. Mr. Vanser frowned and unhappily asked his wife, "Who is that child?"
Mrs. Su adjusted the tassels of her shawl and replied, "He's a very outstanding student in the Strategy Department. His name is You An."
Mr. Vanser: "Civilians?"
Mrs. Su paused and chuckled softly, "Dear, you don't seem to want them to get too close?"
"I hope they are good friends..."
Thinking of the rumors that had arisen from his marriage to his wife, Mr. Vanser sighed tiredly and returned to sit in the armchair next to the coffee table.
"Perhaps you're overly worried. At least Colin told me that Lance is more eager for power than ever before. If they climb high enough, then no thorns will be worth fearing."
At this point, Mrs. Su laughed helplessly. "Of course, it's too early to say that. He doesn't even know what love is."
Mr. Vanser frowned upon hearing this, his expression changing again and again until it gradually turned into a faint look of disgust: "How stupid! This is not like me at all."
Mrs. Su smiled and said quickly, "It's not like me either."
＊
Yuan had not been sailing in the ocean of knowledge for long after returning to school when he was forced to go ashore because of the Dawn Festival on Granton Star.
This is to celebrate the anniversary of the victory in the counterattack against the Zerg, which also coincides with His Majesty's birthday celebration, so there are a total of twelve days of holidays!
Before the festival, Kagano arranged animal-shaped glass lamps with a festive atmosphere. These small decorations are connected with silk ribbons interwoven with silver-gray and burgundy, and are suspended and dotted on the branches of large trees.
Every student passing by the tree had a happy look on their face. They gathered in twos and threes, enjoying warm soy milk, brown sugar and taro ball hot milk tea while discussing how to enjoy a wonderful holiday life.
Lancelot was also packing his luggage in advance. He had hardly stopped since the holiday notice was issued. The light screen showing various shopping information was almost covering his face. He was instructing people to deliver the newly purchased things to a nearby property.
Youan has no plans for a vacation. After paying off this month's medical bills, even though he still has nearly four million in his account, he doesn't plan to spend a penny. He's even thinking about where to find a part-time job during the holidays.
But his plan did not go as he wished. The next morning, when he was about to feed You Tuantuan medicine, he just walked out of the room and saw the noble young master who was supposed to be on vacation in the dormitory.
"Good morning, brother. Good morning, Boss Fox..." You Tuantuan stuck to You An's feet, yawned, jumped onto the table, and rested his head on the edge of the glass. His two soft cheeks also piled up, making his head look rounder than usual.
Lancelot poked him with his finger: "Brother Rabbit is up?"
You Tuantuan was extremely embarrassed. He rushed over and hugged Lancelot's fingers, correcting him in a muffled voice: "I'm not, I'm not..."
It would be strange if it wasn’t.
Lancelot chuckled, took the potion bottle from Youan, poured half a cup of warm water into the glass, and placed it on the luminous coaster.
The cold potion bottle tilted, and the golden potion slowly spread out, as beautiful as fireworks.
"Wow……"
You Tuantuan was stunned at first, then he opened his small eyes, which were no longer sleepy, and stared without moving.
When the potion was completely integrated, the two little paws clapped together, and then they lowered their heads and licked it twice.
Hmm! It doesn’t seem so bitter anymore!
You Tuantuan drank it all, touched his bulging belly, and patted it proudly.
"Isn't it holiday already? I thought you were leaving today." Youan helped You Tuantuan wipe his mouth, picked up the sandwich and took a few bites, looking at Lancelot in confusion while chewing.
"Of course we have to go. Who would waste an entire vacation staying in school?" Lancelot said lazily, supporting his face with one hand.
Youan raised his hand silently: "Me."
"You have to go too." Lancelot held his hand and pressed it down. He noticed You Tuantuan trying hard to prick up his ears and looked over with a smile. "Don't worry, darling. Of course, I'm going to leave too."
You An was stunned: "Where to?"
Lancelot's tail, hanging from the chair leg, swayed slightly as he casually reminded, "Remember the bet on the Rising Stars Tournament? Several seniors also added to the bet."
Among them, there is a very good property in the Xilin District, which is suitable for Yuan's new home. As for the aircraft, it is not very good-looking, so Lancelot decided to exchange it for an equivalent amount of white blue coins for decoration, and use the rest to pay the tax on the components sold by Yuan when he was a ghost.
Lancelot was unexpectedly busy with these things for a long time, and it was not until the day before yesterday that he finally finished everything.
"It seems you really forgot, but it doesn't matter. I have handled the formalities for you and have arranged everything--"
Seeing Euan's face gradually coming to terms with his past, Lancelot raised the corners of his lips and leaned back in his chair with a rather proud expression. "Today is the first day of the Dawn Festival, which is a perfect day for moving!"
It took Youan a while to react: "Moving?"
Lancelot crossed his legs and swung, "Moving."
"My home?"
"Yes, you and You Tuantuan's rabbit warren."
Oh my God!
I have a home!
Euan's tail wagged briskly, and in the other's astonished gaze, he leaned over and gave him a grateful, but not intimate, hug: "Thank you, Lancelot, thank you so much!"
Dwarf rabbits are like this. They look soft and cute, but they are actually very stubborn. But when they really want to show their kindness to you, they have the ability to turn their hearts into a pool of sugar water and penetrate into their internal organs.
"You're welcome..." Lancelot's back stiffened slightly, and he stood upright like a handsome statue, dragging out a melodious tone as he replied, "Because I'm a good person."
So for the rest of the day, Youan was packing his luggage. The pile of custom-made clothes he bought at the beginning was too much to wear, but now they finally had a new place to go. In addition to these, there were also a lot of miscellaneous items left, such as tool boxes and microprocessors, because there was actually a lot of discarded metal machinery hidden under his bed.
Youan passed by holding two core components of the particle gun, and You Tuantuan followed closely behind, holding up a missing nut and clicking.
Lancelot had a new understanding of his hoarding disorder. He leaned against the door frame with his arms folded and thought, if he picked up this rabbit and shook it, he didn't know how many shocking mechanical weapons would come out. Even the military would have to be fully armed before they dared to come.
Kagano does not allow outsiders to enter and leave the school at will. With a new place to stay, You Tuantuan no longer has to hide in the dormitory.
Compared to Euan, this little guy didn't have much luggage. He could only wipe his beloved walnut bed again and again, squatting beside it with a chubby face. He only wagged his tail happily when he saw Lancelot helping him put the luggage into the suitcase.
Lancelot found it a little funny: "It seems that you are more looking forward to it than your brother."
You Tuantuan nodded: "Because I live alone, I can go out without clothes after taking a shower!"
“Is that so—”
Lancelot raised an eyebrow and poked the little bunny's furry belly with his fingertips. "But, you weren't wearing any clothes in the first place."
Snap!
It was like a bolt of lightning striking from above.
You Tuantuan rubbed his head and stomach dully, then began to become petrified after realizing it belatedly.
I, I'm not a civilized rabbit!
＊
Towards the afternoon, most of Kagano's students had left. A packed aircraft finally flew over the glittering spire of the spiral tower and landed in front of the yard of a small villa in the Xilin District.
Across the tall iron fence, you can vaguely see a small house with green walls and a white roof. A small attic window is embedded in the sloping roof. The wooden window frame has clean lines and is matched with half-open shutters. There are also two small rattan chairs under the second-floor balcony. There are lush flowers and plants at the foot of the wall, especially a few newly planted pink and green roses that are quite eye-catching and hang softly along the brick cracks.
There are patrol platforms around the community, and of course the new owner will add more security devices due to his or her interests and hobbies.
All in all, Youan is very happy with this rabbit hive!
Probably to celebrate Youan's move from the old dormitory to the new one, Lancelot called Enzo Quanyi and other friends to come over for a housewarming meal and help as free labor.
He seemed to be born to stand in the center of the crowd. He stood directly at the door, spread his hands with a smile, and asked the guests for housewarming gifts.
Ji Qiao was taken to a nearby asteroid for vacation by Count Plankin. Enzo was too lazy to be a light bulb, so he brought all the porcelain plants, household robots, and Assia's Matchstick Rabbit paintings that his brother and sister-in-law had selected.
Lancelot accepted it all without hesitation.
Youan envied his ease and composure.
Because when he first came to Kagano, he also tried to take the initiative to show his goodwill to his then roommates Vincent and Zach, but he was usually ignored. After so many times, Youan habitually pretended to be invisible.
After all, the hustle and bustle of life has consumed a lot of his energy, and he really can't afford to divert it to maintaining interpersonal relationships.
Now facing the outgoing guys like Quan Yi, Youan picked at the seams of his trousers, silently moved step by step to Lancelot's side, staring at them with his eyes.
When he was discovered, he nodded and repeated, "Hello, hello too."
Quan Yi took great effort to hold back his laughter. If you didn’t know, you would have thought that these two were welcoming guests at their wedding!
The group of people didn't gather at the door for long before they came into the house in a lively manner. They arrived at the right time. In addition to the pile of metal machinery, Youan still had a lot of miscellaneous items that he had not had time to clean up.
These young masters had also heard of You An's reputation as an A student. When they first arrived at the academic master's residence, they were shocked by the two boxes of ancient paper books.
Quan Yisui helped to empty the boxes and found that they covered a wide range of items. In addition to the Granton Top Students Question Bank, there were also professional books, serious literature, prose poetry collections, and reference book collections... The recorded texts were not just common languages, but mostly various obscure minor languages.
Compared to the hardcover books they kept at home as decorations but had never actually read, these things were much more tattered, with missing pages and curled edges, as if they had been dug out from a garbage dump.
Someone flipped through the book out of curiosity. Just a few glances at the densely packed, bizarrely shaped text made them feel dizzy and they couldn't help but rub their temples and ask Youan, "You understand all this? Is reading really that interesting?"
“Yes, yes!”
You An was carefully smoothing the curled corner of a thick ancient book. Upon hearing this, he immediately raised his head, and his dark eyes were like stars that were instantly ignited, flashing with pure and blazing light.
He put the book down and gestured with his hands, trying to describe the feeling. "Reading it was like jumping out of the sky with a parachute on my back. When the symbols and words suddenly became coherent in my mind, it felt like I was passing through those thick, misty clouds. My vision and thoughts gradually became clearer. That feeling of suddenly seeing the world clearly... It's really wonderful!"
He spoke very quickly about things that interested him, and his whole appearance was particularly lively and bright, with pure joy and desire to explore between his brows.
It’s as if you see a rabbit jumping in the grass, waving its paws and enthusiastically telling you that the dense forest ahead is hiding all kinds of delicious sweet berries!
Quan Yi and the others were stunned for a moment. The brief moment of daze made them realize that the straight-A student in front of them was indeed different from their stereotype of academic masters. For example, listening to him speak was like a strange... enjoyment?
So no one noticed that Lancelot's green eyes, which always had a vague smile on them, were now clearly reflecting Youan's glowing profile. The corners of his lips curled up in an extremely soft arc, as if he was admiring a rare treasure that inadvertently revealed its most moving brilliance.
——Except for Enzo who was obsessed with tossing You Tuantuan around and playing with him.
Enzo paused in the sudden silence. He looked around, his gaze suddenly fixed on Lancelot's face. He squinted for a moment, then raised his eyebrows in interest, as if he had caught something extremely interesting.
After Youan finished explaining, he met everyone's gazes and smiled embarrassedly. He came out of his overly excited desire to share, and lowered his head to continue concentrating on sorting out the scattered books.
Lancelot continued to stare at him. After everyone else had gone about their business, he walked around the room wagging his tail, then walked back to the sofa in a very natural manner.
Youan was still sorting the oceans of knowledge assigned to him when he suddenly felt a dent next to the sofa.
He was startled and gently pushed away the head that was about to lean against his shoulder: "I'm sweating."
Ha, this is really interesting. I work myself to the point of sweating, but in the end I still get criticized.
Lancelot narrowed his eyes dangerously, as if he was about to jump up and shout, "What's wrong? What's wrong with sweat?"
He grabbed the clothes and sniffed them, emphasizing unpleasantly, "Even if I sweat, I'm still a scent fox!"
You An responded with a perfunctory "hmmmm" sound. He lowered his head, flattened the corner of the book, and brought the slightly yellowed page to his nose: "You smell so good."
Lancelot: "..."
Hold your book and give it a few kisses!
He snorted in dissatisfaction, and just as he moved away, Quan Yi came over happily, sticking his butt out and trying to sit next to him.
Lancelot extended his hand, quickly pulled the man around, and pushed him towards the bathroom. "Are you sweating? You stink! Go wash up quickly."
Quan Yi felt completely baffled and wrinkled his nose at him in disdain.
Foxes are really troublemakers.
