"Who is it, this late at night?"
Naqi glared in the direction of the unseen door, quite displeased.
Ye Feng guessed who it was.
But he wouldn't say, just for the fun of it.
He told Naqi to open the door.
Naqi, with a reluctant sigh, put on her pajamas and went to open it.
When the door opened.
Mikoli saw a beautiful woman.
It was Naqi, his ex-girlfriend whom he still deeply loved.
Naqi was wearing a cyan silk pajama set, hinting at what lay beneath.
Mikoli's face flushed. After all, when Naqi was with him, she had never worn such revealing clothing that men favored.
Naqi was surprised to see Mikoli.
She asked, "Why are you here?"
Why did Naqi break up with Mikoli?
From any perspective, they were both handsome and beautiful.
One was a gym leader.
The other was a renowned Pokémon coordinator, a master of aesthetics, and a league champion.
Weren't they a perfect match?
No.
As mentioned before, Naqi was rather competitive and had a strong desire for advancement.
Most women seek a partner who is stronger than them.
Because they need a sense of security; someone stronger can protect them.
But Naqi was different.
Mikoli, being too outstanding, made her feel suffocated when he was by her side.
Unable to bear it any longer, she ultimately initiated the breakup.
Then you might ask, wasn't Ye Feng more outstanding than Mikoli?
Wasn't she suppressed when she was with Ye Feng?
Well...
You must understand that initially, Naqi only intended to strike a deal with Ye Feng.
She herself never expected things to develop to this extent with Ye Feng.
Indeed, it's always better when the rice is cooked.
Seeing Naqi like this, Mikoli felt it was inappropriate. After all, she was at home, and it was late at night; wearing pajamas to sleep was perfectly normal.
"Can I come in?"
Mikoli handed Naqi the white rose he was holding, signaling his intent to enter.
Naqi's face was full of nervousness. "No, it's inconvenient here!!!"
Naqi quickly refused.
"No? Inconvenient?"
Mikoli blinked in surprise. "You know what kind of person I am, don't you? I just want to come in and talk with you."
Mikoli was somewhat unwilling to give up.
Naqi tried to dissuade him for a long time, but she couldn't stop Mikoli. Finally, she said:
"Really, I told you, it's inconvenient. My boyfriend is at my place."
"Boy? Boyfriend?"
Mikoli couldn't believe it.
He had thought that even though he and Naqi had broken up, they still loved each other in their hearts. That was why, despite so many excellent women pursuing him, he had never agreed to any of them. But now, Naqi had a boyfriend?
"Naqi, who is it?"
Ye Feng emerged from the house, pretending to be ignorant.
He saw Mikoli standing outside the door.
The moment their eyes met.
Both Ye Feng and Mikoli looked surprised and shocked.
But the difference was, Ye Feng was faking it.
Mikoli was genuine.
Mikoli stared at Ye Feng in disbelief.
This man he had just met today was here at his ex-girlfriend's house at night?
Judging by his demeanor, it was likely...
"You two?"
Seeing Ye Feng come out, Naqi walked towards him and intimately hugged him.
"Mikoli, this is my boyfriend."
"Ye Feng, do you remember I mentioned before that I had a boyfriend?"
"This is Mikoli."
"You've probably heard his name too."
Ye Feng let out a long, drawn-out "Oh."
He then walked up to Mikoli.
He extended his right hand.
Smiling, he said, "Hello, Mikoli. My name is Ye Feng."
"It's our first time meeting. Please take care of me."
Mikoli stared at Ye Feng's outstretched hand, then at Ye Feng himself.
Inside, he felt boundless anger and pain.
First time meeting?!
Didn't they just meet this very afternoon?!
No wonder!
No wonder!!!
Mikoli suddenly recalled something: earlier that day, he was chatting with his teacher, Adam, about Naqi.
At that time, Ye Feng had been standing nearby, smiling.
He hadn't thought much of it then, but now!
He finally understood what that smile meant!
It was mockery!
"Hello."
Mikoli managed to suppress his emotions and shook Ye Feng's hand.
However, this handshake was also a contest of strength.
He was the one initiating it, and he was also the one who wanted to let go quickly!!!
Ye Feng released his grip.
Mikoli's hand was already red.
Ye Feng's hand, however, was completely unharmed.
Seeing this, Naqi
immediately stepped in front of Ye Feng.
She questioned Mikoli, "Mikoli, what do you mean by coming to my house in the middle of the night?! And hurting my boyfriend?!"
After speaking, Naqi picked up Ye Feng's hand and gently blew on it, "Are you okay, Feng?"
Mikoli was furious seeing this scene.
His rage boiled over, and he threw the white rose onto the ground.
He pointed at Naqi and said, "Fine, you're really something."
"I didn't date any other woman for you, and yet you're with this Ye Feng!!!"
Naqi retorted, "You're being ridiculous. We broke up long ago. What I do is none of your business?"
Mikoli gritted his teeth in anger.
Especially thinking of Naqi's intimate posture with Ye Feng, he presumed they must have already been intimate!
What was even worse.
He suspected that just before he knocked on the door, these two were still engaged in such activities!
So, he had interrupted them?!
Mikoli turned and left directly.
He stormed away.
He hadn't harbored any animosity towards Ye Feng initially.
He had only thought Ye Feng was a cold-blooded person.
But today, he realized Ye Feng was a scoundrel!
He must have been with Naqi for a long time, and hearing him talk with Adam today, he deliberately flew back early to do these things to provoke him.
"Very good, very good. This isn't over between you and me."
Mikoli was seething with rage.
At this moment, he felt like he could tear a packet of instant noodles apart with his bare hands.
Meanwhile, Ye Feng and Naqi watched Mikoli leave.
Ye Feng was smiling.
Naqi was too.
She had long lost any feelings for Mikoli.
So, whatever happened to Mikoli was none of her concern.
She used to be able to be friends with him.
But unfortunately, now...
"Alright, wife, let's go."
Ye Feng took Naqi's small hand.
They returned inside the house and resumed their happy life.
...
"Naqi, Naqi, I love you so much! Even though we broke up, I still held onto my original feelings for you. But, why have you treated me like this?!"
"Why?!"
Mikoli's face was contorted with rage.
No matter how handsome his features or how extraordinary his demeanor, when pushed to the extreme of anger, he appeared frightening.
At that moment, his phone suddenly rang.
He had initially intended to vent his anger on the caller, but upon seeing it was Daigo, his temper immediately subsided.
After all, Daigo was his good friend, and someone he couldn't afford to offend.
He answered the call:
"Daigo, is there something you need so late at night?"
Daigo said, "There is indeed something urgent. It's not clear over the phone. Come to Slateport City to find me."
After speaking, Daigo hung up.
Mikoli had no choice but to temporarily suppress his anger.
He summoned his Gyarados and flew towards Slateport City.
