Reborn Pokémon: My childhood sweetheart is Xiaoguang.

Chapter 708: About my girlfriend being "kidnapped" by my best friend!

"Ladies and gentlemen, Flight 12138 has arrived in Miare City and will land smoothly. Have a pleasant journey."

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to..."

A gentle bilingual announcement from the flight attendant filled the cabin.

Xiaoyun rubbed her stiff shoulders and turned to look at Xiaoguang, who was fast asleep with his head against her shoulder.

The other person's head was tilted slightly, and their entire weight was resting on his shoulder. Their sleeping face was as peaceful as a kitten's.

Xiaoyun thought to herself:

"This girl's sleeping posture is still so cute, just don't drool on my clothes..."

He looked down at his shoulders.

Thankfully, there were no water stains.

"Xiao Guang, wake up, it's time for us to get off the plane."

Xiaoyun gently shook Xiaoguang's shoulder, her voice very soft.

"Hmm... have we arrived?"

Xiao Guang groggily opened his eyes and looked out the window, still in a half-awake state.

The familiar city of Miare came into view, with the city's landmark Prism Tower still towering into the clouds.

"Well, we're here."

Xiaoyun helped her tidy her slightly messy long hair and tucked the stray hairs behind her ear.

Yes, they returned to Miare.

After the advanced tournament ended, there were less than two weeks left until the Carlos League Conference.

Considering the travel time, the group ultimately chose the fastest way: to fly back to Miare from Glory City.

Xiaoyun stood up and took their backpacks from the overhead luggage rack.

"Let's go, the others should have already gotten off the plane."

Xiao Guang quickly tidied himself up and smoothed out his hair that had sticked up while he was sleeping.

The cabin door opened, and passengers disembarked one after another. The two followed the flow of people toward the exit.

"Phew, I'm finally back!"

Xiao Guang took a deep breath of the air in Miare. Although the air in airports is pretty much the same, psychological factors made her feel that the air here was particularly familiar.

After all, I've come back and forth several times already, and it feels like coming home.

The two followed the flow of people toward the exit.

From afar, Xiaoyun spotted a conspicuous, swaying sign.

It wasn't because it was big, but because the person holding the sign was making exaggerated gestures.

As you get closer, you'll see the sign written in bold black marker.

"Hey, you scumbag cloud user, look here!"

There is another line of smaller text below:

"And the beautiful Xiaoguang~"

Xiaoguang: "..."

Xiaoyun: "..."

The man holding the sign was blond and wore sunglasses that covered half his face. He exuded an aura of "I'm trendy, but I might not be a little smart."

"It's Ah Xun."

Xiao Guang waved to the other person.

When Ah Xun saw them, his eyes lit up, and he held the sign even higher, shaking it vigorously.

"Here, here! Here, here!"

Xiaoyun covered her face and walked over, lowering her voice:

"Hey, do you have to be so conspicuous? Don't you have any shame?"

He didn't even dare to call the blond-haired kid mentally challenged.

He was afraid this guy was really something.

"Hey, don't worry about the details!"

Ah Xun patted him on the shoulder, then turned to Xiao Guang, instantly flashing a bright smile: "Xiao Guang! Congratulations on becoming Queen Carlos."

"I watched your live stream, it was amazing! That Diamond City was incredible, it's truly the pride of Sinnoh!"

"It was just luck..."

Xiao Guang waved his hand somewhat embarrassedly.

"A fluke? Excessive modesty is just arrogance."

The blond-haired guy didn't believe in any wishful thinking.

When asked, they said they hadn't learned anything, but when it came to the test, they didn't say a word.

Xiaoyun looked at him: "By the way, you're here pretty early. How many days have you been here?"

"Of course!"

Ah Xun raised an eyebrow: "Battles are good for training skills. Trainers who arrive early can gain an advantage. The League Tournament is sure to be full of experts."

"Without boasting, I've already played seventeen matches at the Battle Cafe in Miare, with a record of fifteen wins and two losses! I'm pretty good, aren't I?"

"Fifteen wins and two losses, that's impressive."

Xiao Guang blinked and praised sincerely.

Trainers during the League Tournament are no pushovers; winning so many matches already shows they're very strong.

Ah Xun became even more smug, but Xiao Yun ruthlessly sabotaged him:

"That's amazing, so its ranking must be very high. It must be a high-level ball, right? It might even be in the top ten."

"As expected of Grandpa Ah Xun."

"Damn it."

Ah Xun took off his sunglasses, too lazy to argue with this guy.

"Forget it, I'm not going to argue with you anymore. Let's go, let's go to the athletes' hotel first. I've already booked rooms for you!"

He turned to lead the way, but Xiaoyun noticed that Xiaozhi and his friends hadn't followed.

"Ash, what about you guys? Aren't you coming along?"

Xiaoyun turned around and asked.

Ash scratched his head: "We won't go. Clemont's house is nearby, we can stay there."

Clemont explained, "Well, it's been so long since I left Luna, Clemont must have accumulated a lot of work. As the Gym Leader, I still need to go back and check on things."

Xiaoyun maintained her smile, thinking to herself:

"So you still remember you're the owner? Hitroit did a much better job than you. Going back would only make things worse..."

But she definitely couldn't say that aloud, so Xiaoyun could only nod:

"Yes, that makes sense. A dojo does need its owner to manage it personally."

Yulijia sighed, "I miss my dad too. I wonder how he's doing all alone at home."

Yulijia is sensible and knows how to care for her lonely father.

Unfortunately, this lonely old man is secretly a masked superhero.

Serena looked at Hikaru, somewhat embarrassed, "Hikaru, you know me, I..."

She didn't finish speaking, but Hikari understood perfectly: Serena was definitely going with Ash.

Well, I understand everything.

Xiao Guang smiled and nodded, "I understand. Why don't you go back and settle in first, and then meet up again tomorrow?"

"no problem!"

Serena gave an OK sign, and the group changed direction and headed towards the Prism Tower.

Watching them disappear into the crowd, Xiaoyun turned back to Axun and asked, "By the way, why are you alone? Where's Sanping?"

Xiao Yun only noticed this when there were fewer people. Ever since Carlos arrived, A Xun and his genin buddies have basically been inseparable.

The two trained together, one reckless and the other steady, and they cooperated quite well; it was rare to see them act separately.

"Sanping is staying in the village to train with Brother Yiping, but he said he would come to watch when I attend the Alliance Tournament."

As Ah Xun led the two towards the airport exit, she said...

"It's said that Brother Yiping is going to teach him some profound martial arts techniques. If used well, it can defeat an enemy in one move. I wonder if this kid has mastered them yet."

Xiao Guang imagined the scene of Sanping forming the Tiger Seal, a single, fatal blow, and couldn't help but gasp:

"Wow, that must be amazing."

"Hey, never mind that, let's go back to the hotel! There are people waiting there."

Ah Xun waved his hand, walked to the taxi waiting area outside the airport, and skillfully hailed a car.

"Is someone else waiting? Who is it?"

Xiao Yun raised an eyebrow; he didn't know many people in Carlos.

Ah Xun grinned mischievously, "You'll find out when we get there anyway."

........

The athletes' hotel.

Located in the city center, this is a modern high-rise building, just a ten-minute walk from the main venue, making it an excellent location.

There were already many trainers coming and going in the lobby. Some were checking in, some were chatting together, and some were exchanging contact information. They were all contestants from all over the world.

"Miss Joey, I'm coming in."

Xun led the two into the lobby with practiced ease, and even gave what he thought was a cool wink to Miss Joey at the front desk.

He's clearly become quite familiar with the place.

"Mr. Ah Xun, welcome back."

Miss Joy gave a professional smile, but when her gaze fell on Hikaru, she paused noticeably, her eyes widening slightly.

"This is... Miss Hikari? The new Queen Carlos?"

Xiao Guang bowed slightly politely: "Hello, Miss Joey."

Wow! It really is you!

Miss Joey instantly switched from professional mode to fan mode, and immediately pulled out a small notebook.

"Could I have your autograph? I just watched your final live stream, and your performance style was absolutely beautiful. It's a pity I couldn't be there in person."

"of course can."

Xiao Guang was surprised that Miss Joey was a fan of his, and quickly signed his name in the notebook.

"Thank you so much."

Joey's sister was overjoyed.

Xiaoyun watched from the side, a smile playing on her lips.

His daughter is a celebrity now.

After a quick registration, Ah Xun led the two to their room. He explained as they walked:

"The room is on the eighth floor, with a superb view; you can see the Prism Tower."

"The room numbers are all consecutive; I specially booked these for you in advance. How about that, reliable, right?"

"Hey, you really have to be a brother to know what's what."

Xiaoyun patted him on the shoulder.

Actually, Ah Xun is reliable sometimes, right?

The elevator arrived at the eighth floor.

The corridor was covered with thick carpets, and the walls were adorned with oil paintings depicting Carlos's landscape; the environment was quite pleasant.

Ah Xun walked to the door and handed the room key to Xiao Guang: "Xiao Guang, go in and take a look~"

Xiao Guang took the room key, looked at A Xun with some confusion, and then at Xiao Yun.

Xiaoyun shrugged, indicating that she didn't know either.

Xiao Guang swiped the swipe to open the door and went inside.

"Light!!!"

Immediately afterwards, a figure rushed out of the room and pounced straight at Xiaoguang like a hungry wolf.

Before Xiao Guang could react, she was suddenly embraced tightly. The impact made her cry out and take two steps back. Fortunately, Xiao Yun caught her from behind.

"Courageous!"

Xiao Yun shouted loudly, her right hand already reaching for the Poké Ball at her waist.

To flirt with his girlfriend in broad daylight—they really don't respect him as an inspector.

But when he saw who it was, he immediately stopped.

Because the person holding Xiaoguang had a neat head of short orange hair and a free and unrestrained temperament.

She is Xiaoguang's best friend, the god of support, who is always there for Xiaoguang's important matches.

Xiao Wang, Wang Jie.

Xiao Wang hugged Xiao Guang and shook him, saying, "You didn't expect to find me here, did you!"

"Surprised? Unexpected!"

Xiao Guang finally realized what was happening and hugged the other person back in surprise: "Xiao Wang, what brings you here? Is the grand celebration over?"

Xiao Wang let go of her, but his hands were still on her shoulders, and his face showed his familiar, dashing smile:

"Ah, it's over. I won the championship this time, and I'm now a top Coordinator just like Hikari."

"Hey, champion! I knew you'd be fine, Xiao Wang."

Xiao Guang praised her, saying that she was genuinely happy for the other person.

Xiaoyun shook her head with a smile.

That's definitely no problem. If things had gone according to plan, this guy would have been the champion that time.

Thinking of something, Hikaru blinked: "Oh right, what about Haruka..."

"We didn't run into her; she was attending the Hoenn Grand Festival."

Xiao Wang's expression instantly fell, and he sighed, "What a pity, I wanted to compete with her again."

She won second place twice, once losing to Xiaoguang and once losing to Xiaoyao.

Hikaru can't win, so he can only challenge Haruka.

Xiaoyun, always eager for drama, chimed in cheekily, "So you didn't run into Xiaoyao? Then Xiaowang, your championship title isn't very valuable."

Xiao Wang immediately turned and glared at him, her eyes sharp as knives: "Xiao Yun, you..."

Why does this man have such a sharp tongue? Is he looking for trouble?

"Xiaoyun!"

Xiao Guang playfully tugged at his sleeve.

She knew her best friend was very competitive, and these words were like a madcap.

But Xiao Wang was already in battle mode, his chin slightly raised: "Xiao Yun, don't think you can talk big just because you're stronger than me. Believe me or not, I'll make you admit your mistake in a minute!"

“Xiao Wang…” Xiao Guang tried to ease the tension.

"AUV? I really don't believe it. What do you suggest we do?"

Xiaoyun got excited and even made him admit his mistake.

Who is he? Xiaoyun! The Pokémon World Championship Champion!

A true man stands between heaven and earth; how can he bow down to the power of his best friend!

"Ah Xun, you should try to persuade them."

Xiao Guang looked pleadingly at the only person next to him who might be neutral.

Ah Xun may be reckless most of the time, but he can still say something sensible when it really matters... right?

However, Xiao Guang clearly overestimated Xiao Huangmao's bottom line.

Then I saw the other person pull out a small stool from somewhere, holding a bag of sunflower seeds in his hand, and was eating them with great relish.

Seeing Xiao Guang looking over, he spat out the sunflower seed shells, looking completely innocent:

"What's there to advise? I think it's fine."

Hehehe, let's fight!

He absolutely loves seeing Xiaoyun get her comeuppance!

Xiao Wang stared at Xiao Yun for three seconds, then suddenly smiled, a smile that held a profound meaning:

"Oh? Are you sure you're not going to apologize?"

She asked slowly.

"I'm not apologizing, so what!"

Xiaoyun stuck out her neck, saying, "A real man should have backbone!"

"OK."

Xiao Wang nodded, then turned around, grabbed Xiao Guang's shoulder, and pulled him into his arms.

Then, with his chin slightly raised, he announced to Xiaoyun:

"Now, Xiaoguang is mine."

"We'll share a room tonight, you'll sleep by yourself."

Xiaoyun: "???"

Xiao Guang: "???"

Ah Xun: "Pfft—"

Xiao Wang wasn't finished yet, and continued: "Besides, I'm not leaving anymore. I'll follow you wherever you go, and Xiao Guang will be mine from now on."

"Yeah, we eat together, shop together, sleep together, and even shower together. Oh, that's not necessarily true, it depends on the situation."

"???"

Xiaoyun gasped.

How dare she! A mere woman dares to pull such a stunt! What a vicious scheme!

Regarding the incident where my girlfriend was "kidnapped" by her best friend.

What is the solution to this plan?

Xiaoyun took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

He stared at Xiao Wang, his expression complex.

“Say what you just said again.”

"I'm not leaving anymore."

Xiao Wang readily accepted good advice and never backed down.

"last sentence."

"Is Xiaoguang mine?"

"One more sentence."

"Apologize to me."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiaoyun darted forward, bowed ninety degrees, and said in a loud voice:

"Sister Wang! I was wrong!!!"

The precision of his movements, the sincerity of his attitude, and the speed of his actions stunned everyone present.

The sunflower seeds in Ah Xun's hand fell to the ground with a "clatter," and he opened his mouth wide:

"Damn it! Where's your backbone? Where's your manly integrity? You've lost it way way too fast!"

He knew Xiaoyun was a dog, but he didn't expect her to be such a dog.

"Integrity? How much per pound? Would you buy it?"

Xiaoyun straightened up, patted off non-existent dust from her clothes, and remained remarkably calm.

Moral integrity? Can that thing keep a girlfriend?

Ah Xun instinctively replied, "I'm not buying it..."

"Yeah, what decent person has any integrity?"

Xiaoyun shrugged, her tone matter-of-fact.

Ah Xun was instantly drawn into the conversation and subconsciously retorted, "Can someone with principles be a decent person?"

The two exchanged a glance and said in unison:

"Transparent!"

Xiao Guang and Xiao Wang stared at the two clowns, speechless for a moment.

Xiao Guang sighed and rubbed his forehead, while Xiao Wang's eyes lit up; she felt as if she had discovered a new continent.

This man seems like someone I can bully a little more?

She stroked her chin, her eyes lingering on Xiaoyun.

Could she go even further? Like calling me godfather?

Hmm, I'm getting a little itchy.
