When facing Bai Heqing, Belmode was indeed nervous.
Of course, she felt that the cause of this problem was not entirely her fault, but mainly Bai Heqing's fault.
Compared with the gentle sister Keiko, this person is really too cold...
From the time Belmode appeared until now, the only two reactions Shirakawa Kiyoshi has made are to glance at her when she appeared, and then to give up the other side of the bench when Sister Keiko called her to come and sit down. .
Then it was gone.
Not talking about saying hello in a friendly manner, Bai Heqing didn't even set his eyes on her for even a second except for the first glance at her.
This kind of unabashed indifference made Belmode subconsciously tighten his heart when facing Bai Heqing...
"Thanks……"
The two of them sat on either side of the bench. Bai Heqing didn't react at all after hearing Belmode's whispered thanks.
He still maintained his previous posture, quietly looking at Keiko Hatoyama, who was painting for him.
[This person has an absolutely terrible personality...]
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward, and Belmod couldn't help but started to complain crazily in his heart.
You indifferent man! Do you know how to socialize? ! Even if you don't want to talk to strangers anymore, you should at least give me a reaction at this time, right? !
This kind of attitude, this kind of attitude... I have lost all the courage I had to muster up to make friends with you!
Ah——Sister Keiko, how could she fall in love with a cold man like you?
Of course, after complaining, Belmod silently took back his last sentence.
After all, complaints are complaints, and she actually knows very well that Bai Heqing's indifferent character is only relative to those who are not close to him, and sister Keiko is not included in this.
That sad first encounter three years ago had already proven this.
Rather than letting this awkward atmosphere continue, Keiko Hatoyama suddenly spoke up behind the drawing board.
"Xiao Qing, you can't be so rude." There was helplessness in her tone, as if similar things had happened countless times before.
Keiko Hatoyama calls Shirakawa Kiyo very affectionately, which seems reasonable considering that she is one year older than Shirakawa Kiyo.
As her words fell, Bai Heqing, who was originally quiet and silent, finally reacted. He turned to look at Belmode beside him. Under her somewhat nervous expression, he spoke in a serious tone:
"Feel sorry."
However, this time Belmode was out of shape again.
【so beautiful. 】
Once again I saw Bai Heqing's beautiful pure purple pupils.
Belmode was stunned subconsciously.
His unique pair of pupils are still as beautiful as they were three years ago, but the difference is that there is a touch of spirituality in his eyes that was not there three years ago, which complements this beauty. The final flaw.
"No, it's okay..." He quickly came to his senses, but Belmod was still a little nervous.
After receiving her reply, Bai Heqing looked back as if he had completed some task, and returned to his previous look of keeping strangers away.
Suddenly, Belmode was curious, and very curious.
How did two people with seemingly completely opposite personalities get to know each other in the first place and then come together again?
Of course, Bellmode didn't know yet that her doubt would soon be answered by Keiko Hatoyama.
"alright."
While the three of them were chatting, Keiko Hatoyama quickly finished painting their portraits.
Although it was a chat between three people, it was actually Hatoyama Keiko and Bermod who were basically talking, while Shirakawa Kiyoshi just sat silently, listening to the conversation between the two.
Only when Hatoyama Keiko asked him, he would say a word or two.
It's a sentence or two, not a word or two.
Although the tone is still calm and calm, it can indeed be measured in "sentences".
This once again confirmed Belmod's previous guess.
Bai Heqing's heart is not really as cold and unkind as he shows.
He is probably just the kind of person with high psychological defense.
"look."
Taking off the drawing paper, Hatoyama Keiko stood up and showed it to the two people on the bench with a smile.
"Eh?"
Looking at the drawing paper in her hand, Belmod was stunned for a moment.
Because Hatoyama Keiko only painted one picture.
On both sides of the bench on the drawing paper were a cold-looking Bai Heqing and a nervous-looking Belmode.
[Why, you want to draw me and him together, will this...]
Looking at this drawing paper, Belmod suddenly became a little uneasy.
"It's very beautiful. Your painting skills have improved again." At this time, Bai Heqing beside her replied.
"Humph, that's natural, don't look at who I am..."
Shirakawa Kiyoshi's compliment seemed to be of great benefit to Keiko Hatoyama. She suddenly began to show off and turned to look at Belmode who was standing aside.
"Little Karasuma, what do you think?"
"I, I think..."
Confused, Belmod subconsciously looked into Hatoyama Keiko's eyes.
Like Shirakawa Kiyoshi, Hatoyama Keiko also has a pair of very beautiful eyes. This beauty does not refer to how unique her eyes are, but the gentleness and cleanliness that fall deep in her eyes.
"Yeah! It looks good!"
Feeling ashamed of what he had just thought, Belmod blushed and nodded vigorously towards Keiko Hatoyama.
"Well, although you all say it's good, I obviously feel that there are still many details that haven't been drawn properly..."
However, after listening to the two people's answers, Hatoyama Keiko frowned, looked down at the drawing paper in her hand again, and her tone was tangled.
"Sister Keiko! If you want to be serious! In fact, there are indeed some!" With his cheeks still rosy, Belmod mustered up the courage to speak loudly.
"Huh? Where where?"
"That's about this wooden man!"
Belmod stood up and walked forward quickly, pointing at Bai Heqing on the drawing paper and shouting, her heart was beating fast at this moment.
At this moment, she completely let go of all her previous worries, and she finally knew how to get along with the two people in front of her.
There is no need for extra courtesy, no extra skills, and no need for extra worries and speculations.
Just like the painting in front of her, just because Belmode appeared and sat on the bench, Hatoyama Keiko painted it together without any extra thoughts at all.
Both of them are extremely pure people.
"Blockhead?"
Hearing this title from Bellmod, Hatoyama Keiko was obviously stunned. She first looked at Bellmod, who was already blushing, and then looked at Shirakawa Qing on the bench. She couldn't help but Laughed out loud.
"Xiao Qing, Xiao Karasuma said you are a wooden person! Hahahaha!" Keiko Hatoyama held the easel and smiled very happily.
"Ben, that's what it is..."
Being pointed out by Hatoyama Keiko so directly, Belmode was also a little embarrassed. She murmured in a low voice and glanced at Bai Heqing quietly.
Indifferent man!
I've wanted to complain about you for a long time!
On the bench, Bai Heqing was not angry. He quietly looked at Hatoyama Keiko who was laughing non-stop. On the originally calm and indifferent face, Belmode saw a smile for the first time.
After noticing Belmod's gaze, he turned his head and looked over again.
【Thanks. 】
Although Bai Heqing didn't say it directly, from his eyes, Belmode saw what he wanted to express.
【snort. 】
Belmode raised his head.
Later, Belmode always believed that this was the beginning of her and Bai Heqing's understanding of each other.
From then on, "wooden man" became her specific name for Bai Heqing.
As for this special painting, it has been well preserved by Keiko Hatoyama.
Until thirty years ago...
In other words, it was not until seven years after their current time that it came into the hands of Belmod again and has been preserved by her to this day.
