Chapter 174 Great Cause
Gion swore that this was the best miso soup he had ever tasted in his life!
It is salty but not greasy in the mouth, with the unique umami flavor of seafood. After drinking it, your whole body feels warm.
This smell... feels like coming home.
"How does it taste, Gion-sama? Does it taste good?"
Tengetsu's eyes sparkled, and he looked at Gion expectantly.
When she looked at Tianyue, her smiling eyebrows and long eyelashes trembled slightly, making her look cute and charming.
Gion pursed his lips, but he didn't dare to look at the former's eyes. He nodded and whispered:
"Well, Sister Shi's cooking skills are very good, and the miso soup is delicious."
"Very good!"
Tengetsu held Gion's hand overjoyed, with a nice blush on his face, and said with a smile:
"Since you like it, come to my house for dinner more often in the future, and I'll make you more delicious food!"
At home...?
He does not mean that.
After hearing these words, Gion's mood became extremely complicated.
She had always had a strong and cold personality, but when she met Tianyue's expectant gaze, she couldn't bring herself to say anything to refuse, so she just nodded silently.
Darren looked at Gion quietly and couldn't help but chuckle in his heart.
Ah Shi's charm lies not in her peerless beauty that captivates the entire country, but in her gentle and virtuous temperament that makes anyone unable to help but feel pity and protection in their heart.
It is precisely because of this that she was able to gain the support and love of so many people in Wano Country in the original plot.
"Come on, come and try the grilled eel I made."
…
The meal was surprisingly harmonious.
There were no quarrels, no quarrels... Under Ah Shi's gentleness and enthusiasm, Gion didn't have a seizure, and Darren didn't seek death. They were just like a family, enjoying themselves.
After the meal, Darren took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and walked out of the house to the yard.
Under the shade of the trees, two deck chairs stood quietly.
Darren's eyes were dazed for a moment.
Just a few months ago, there was a young man with expectations and hopes for "justice" lying on one of these chairs, drunk and screaming about his passion and youth.
But now, the passion and enthusiasm of the boy have disappeared, and he has become mature and tough.
The boy with the blood of a "hero" suddenly became a world-class vicious criminal.
Things are different and people are different.
Although Darren has always been determined, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional at this moment.
He pursed his lips, walked over to the tree, and sat down on one of the lounge chairs.
Quietly looking at the starry night sky in the distance, he silently lit a cigarette and digested his inner emotions.
"So... Senior Dorag, did he really kill the Tianlong people?"
A voice suddenly sounded beside him.
Darren glanced at Gion who came next to him, smiled, and said in a low voice:
"Yes, I was the first one to arrest him."
"It's a pity that he escaped...otherwise, I could at least be promoted to another level."
Gion bit his lower lip and suddenly cursed in a low voice:
"fraud."
"ah?"
Darren was stunned.
Gion turned around and stared at Darren closely:
"I said you are a liar."
"You're obviously very sad, aren't you?"
Darren was silent for a moment, then smiled disapprovingly:
"How could that be? I'm not familiar with Dorag."
"He is the son of a hero, and I am the biggest loser. I just regret that I did not catch him with my own hands."
Gion suddenly sneered:
"So how long are you going to pretend to be scum?"
"If I remember correctly, you are still injured, aren't you?"
"But you pretended to be okay and walked into the house with a smile on your face... You are obviously a very gentle person!"
Hey, hey, this is not a good word to praise a man.
Especially in certain Japanese anime, the adjective "Yasasi" translated as "gentle" is a term reserved for some loser male protagonists.
So Darren said angrily:
"I'm not pretending, I am indeed a scum."
"As for Dorag... I'm not so much sad as I am with emotion and envy."
He slowly exhaled a stream of smoke from his mouth.
"A man's greatest luck is that he can find a great career in his life when he is still young and strong."
"how about you?"
Gion stared at Darren closely, as if expecting some kind of answer.
"What is the great career you want to engage in in life?"
"me……"
Darren sighed with some emotion, thought seriously for a while, and then said with a serious face:
"When you say that, I also know that there are some problems in my life."
Gion was slightly startled when he heard this.
Could it be that... this guy is really reflecting on his life?
For the past month, Gion has been unable to accept the fact that he fell in love with a "scum".
But if Darren could change and turn around...
She couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation in her heart.
"I've thought about it a lot, especially after the Dorag incident happened, I started to re-examine my life."
Darren frowned slightly and said with emotion:
"What should a person live for in his life?"
"If I covet enjoyment at such a young age, enjoy food, love, liquor, power, money, and life..."
"Earn money that no one else can make in a lifetime, live a luxurious life that no one else can imagine, then when I get old, I will find..."
Gion's eyes lit up, and he asked anxiously: "What did you find?"
"...I found that I have no regrets in my life."
Darren exhaled a puff of smoke leisurely, his eyes were half-squinted, and he was filled with emotion, as if he had discovered the true meaning of life.
Gion: "..."
"You bastard, scum, scum!!!"
The curve of his chest rose and fell violently due to anger. Gion gritted his teeth and trembled with anger.
Fortunately, I had been looking forward to it just now!
This guy hasn't changed at all! !
He is still the bastard that makes people hate him so much! !
She glared at Darren fiercely, pushed the door open and left without looking back.
Darren suddenly felt helpless.
He obviously told the truth.
Don't waste your money while you are powerful, and enjoy life as much as possible.
Is it possible to wait until the world government finds out that he killed a Celestial Dragon and is wanted all over the world before he can enjoy it?
It's too late then.
Here is Dorag’s living example!
It's just a lesson learned.
He sighed.
"Husband, you shouldn't make sister Gion angry like this."
Tianyue walked to Darun's side with a helpless expression, held his hand, and persuaded:
"Hurry up and coax her. In fact, Sister Gion cares about you very much."
"General He visited me a few days ago and told me something."
"Do you still remember what happened when you were imprisoned by Kaido of the Hundred Beasts in the New World? In fact, at that time, although she was unwilling to admit it, Sister Gion privately begged Commander Crane over and over again to persuade the Warring States General. We are sending troops to rescue you..."
When Ah Shi finished speaking, Darren was slightly startled.
