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

Chapter 220 Cynthia, you're still pretending!

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and Li Shuwen packed his bags early in the morning to prepare for departure.

The father, who was having a great time at the game arcade, offered to cover for his son for the first time after hearing that his son was going on a date with his future daughter-in-law!

"Son, don't worry! I'll take good care of the Veiled Dojo. I swear, I won't play a single minute of games until you come back!"

"Focus on your date, Dad's waiting for your good news!"

Looking at Li Dazhuang's serious expression, Li Shuwen's lips twitched.

He was going on a date, and from his father's perspective, it was as if he were going to his execution.

"Alright, I'll leave the Veiled Gym to you and Kai, Dad. The trainers you selected using your previous methods won't be bad."

Despite his young age, Akai is very energetic.

Although Akai talks about youth, he actually practices scientific body training.

Kai is very eager to learn, and with the help of the Gravestone and Machop, he makes rapid progress.

Even the old man with the lung fog said that Akai's talent was even greater than his own when he was young.

And Ah Kai's burning passion for youth.

The only comparable person to the "Lung Fog Dad" is someone who is completely obsessed with love.

But for Akai, this was just an ordinary day.

Li Shuwen considered himself to be quite serious about his cultivation, but he still couldn't compare to Akai.

Aside from work and rest, Ah Kai spends the rest of his time practicing Buddhism.

When they returned from the Padia Pit, Li Shuwen took good care of Akai, as he had accumulated a lot of fatigue.

If Akai continues to train like this, he'll most likely turn himself into an acorn.

Fortunately, the food in the Pokémon world contains much more energy than that there.

Akai's body won't be excessively depleted, but not controlling his training time will definitely affect his physical development.

"Kai, your training time must be limited to eight hours. You should drink the nutrient solution I prepared for you at least three times a day."

Ah Kai nodded vigorously. "Master, I will definitely do as you say, but... could the training period be a little longer?"

Li Shuwen's expression was serious. "No, it's eight hours, eight hours it is!"

"After you turn eighteen, I won't care what you do, but not now."

Ah Kai is not even twelve years old yet, there's no need to rush.

"If you really can't stay idle, go look at those training books in the first row of my study, or go out and catch a couple more Pokémon."

"If you can't train yourself, you can train Pokémon!"

Just as Li Shuwen was about to leave, Old Man Lung Fog suddenly grabbed him.

"Have you prepared a gift for your girlfriend before you meet her?"

Li Shuwen blinked; he really hadn't considered this issue.

"Gifts don't have to be expensive, but they must come with meaning!"

Li Shuwen nodded and prepared jasmine essential oil for Shirona.

The fragrance of jasmine is both elegant and full of vitality, symbolizing inner resilience, which suits Cynthia's gentle yet powerful qualities.

This is also the characteristic that Cynthia displays while pretending to be innocent.

……

After driving all the way to Shenhe Town, Li Shuwen strode into the Institute of History.

Cynthia had tied her long golden hair into a ponytail and was draped over one side of her body, pretending to be conducting research and analyzing ancient documents.

Li Shuwen stepped forward with a smile, "Cabbage, how does the flower ice cream taste?"

Cynthia looked up and smiled slightly. "It's still early. Let me finish analyzing this data before we head to Shenhe Town."

"As for the flower ice cream, it tastes absolutely amazing! It's simply the best ice cream I've ever had. No wonder it's Shuwen's!"

I had already tried flower ice cream at the Padia Crater once.

Cynthia thought that the flower ice cream she received this time, even if it tasted better, wouldn't be too extravagant.

But wildflowers and carefully cultivated garden flowers, which may even receive Shemi's blessing, are on completely different levels.

One bite, and Cynthia was instantly amazed.

Three hundred pounds of ice cream—Cynthia was like a dragon finding a treasure.

I've completely lost the desire to share this with everyone.

Oh my god, it's all my fault!

"Cynthia ate some too. After the first bite, she seriously suspected that you had hidden something from her when you made it for her last time."

Li Shuwen smiled slightly, looking into Cynthia's eyes, "The best ice cream should naturally be given to the most important person."

Cynthia blushed slightly, feeling very pleased.

But for no apparent reason, Cynthia also felt a pang of sadness.

"You can wander around for a bit, I need to focus on translating the documents."

Cynthia's change came suddenly, but Li Shuwen knew very well why.

"Actually, it's a matter of materials; the wildflowers from the Padiya Pit are not as good as the petals from the flowerbed."

When Li Shuwen revealed the real reason, Cynthia was initially delighted, but then felt a little resentful because the flower ice cream wasn't specially prepared for her.

Li Shuwen smiled enigmatically, "But I had already planned to use the best ingredients to make the best flower ice cream and give it to the best you."

Cynthia lowered her head, but she couldn't hide the smile on her face.

Dr. Mustard Blue came out with a cup of coffee and looked at Li Shuwen, "Weren't you planning to go to Suiyi Town to watch the fireworks festival? It's getting late, aren't you going?"

Li Shuwen was extremely respectful. After learning that Bai Cai was Cynthia, Li Shuwen, who already respected Dr. Mustard, showed even greater respect from the bottom of his heart.

"Doctor, Bai Cai said we'll set off once she finishes translating the document she's working on."

Dr. Mustard waved his hand dismissively, "I'll delegate this task to someone else. You just focus on your date."

"This is such a rare opportunity, you should take your annual leave and have a good week of fun before coming back."

It was all just for show, Cynthia, and you're still putting on an act!

Do I really need you to translate this document from three years ago?

Dating, getting married, and having great-grandchildren are your real priorities.

Cynthia looked up and saw Dr. Mustard's gaze, instantly understanding its meaning.

"Okay...okay."

Shirona put down the documents, and then, together with Li Shuwen, was pushed out of the research institute by Dr. Mustard Orchid.

"Have a nice date, and don't come back unless there's something wrong!"

After getting on the bus, Li Shuwen smiled and said, "Dr. Jiezilan is really enthusiastic."

What could Cynthia say? She simply smiled faintly.

Li Shuwen handed the packaged gift box from the back seat to Cynthia.

"A gift for you, a floral essential oil that I made myself."

Cynthia unpacked the package, took out the essential oil, and smelled it.

"It tastes great, I really like it."

Li Shuwen started the car, and Cynthia said calmly, "The fireworks display doesn't start until tonight, so we can take our time."

Li Shuwen said with a smile, "I've heard that the scenery in Suiyi Town is quite nice; we can go and explore it more."

"Being with you, even just taking a walk, makes me happy."

Bai Cai was secretly pleased, but still said calmly:

"The scenery in Random Town is nice, but I still prefer Random Ruins and want to learn about Sinnoh's history that has been buried by time."

Li Shuwen smiled faintly. Cynthia was quite dedicated, trying her best to maintain her "cabbage" persona.

He had a sudden inspiration: "The two gods of time and space, Dialga, the god of time, and Palkia, the god of space, will appear before you, but you can only choose one."

Who do you choose?
