"When I first saw Sister Jing, I felt that you and Sharon looked alike! They looked like mother and daughter!
But you definitely can’t ask this kind of thing directly, right? After all, if this is really the case, Sister Jing, you must also want to hide your identity, right?
That’s why I thought about testing it quietly or something... I’m sorry, it’s my cleverness that caused you trouble! "
Saying this, Hideyoshi bowed his head and apologized again, his attitude was extremely sincere.
"I see……"
Listening to his words, Bai Hejing nodded with a calm expression and did not ask any further questions.
"Your guess is correct, Sharon is indeed my mother." She replied immediately.
"Really?!" Hideyoshi's eyes widened when he heard this.
"Isn't my face real enough?" Bai Hejing glanced at him.
"No, no, no, I don't mean to doubt you, Sister Jing, I just... I'm sorry, um, I seem to be a little excited..."
Seems too excited?
Hideyoshi began to speak a little incoherently, and kept moving his hands back and forth, showing a typical reaction when he was emotionally excited.
"Okay, calm down."
A smile finally appeared on his face. Bai Hejing raised her hand and patted his shoulder gently, asking:
"Do you need me to sign for you on behalf of my mother? To be honest, I am actually very good at imitating my mother's handwriting, and I can completely pass it off as real..."
"Is this, is this really okay? Although it's not Sharon herself, it seems okay if it's her daughter?"
"Of course, as long as you don't tell our identities. After all, I am taking my sister out to play today, and I don't want to get entangled with troublesome people..."
"Of course! I promise!" Hideyoshi immediately replied, patting his thin chest.
"Sister Jing, wait a minute, I brought a marker and I'll get it to you right away..."
Saying this, Hideyoshi quickly ran towards the parasol.
Bai Hejing walked slowly behind, watching his running back, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a solemn expression.
【He lied. 】
This boy is very smart. At the critical moment, he was able to use her face to use her famous star mother as a shield... If it had been anyone else, he might have been deceived by him just now.
But unfortunately, also thanks to the blood of her famous star mother, Bai Hejing is born with acting talent, and she is also very good at seeing through other people's performances.
Hideyoshi's reaction just now after hearing that she was Sharon's daughter seemed to her to be a bit superficial.
The action and reaction are very realistic, but there is no real emotion.
It was obvious that Hideyoshi was here to test her.
It’s just that Bai Hejing is not very clear, what is the other party’s motivation? In other words, has she exposed anything unusual before?
Suddenly, she remembered the look she had just made with Mary.
Is it because of this?
【Really...】
Thinking of this, Bai Hejing shook his head gently.
These strange and troublesome things can happen whenever you go out...
"..."
By the time Bai Hejing returned to the parasol, Bai Heying was already playing with Zhenchun.
It seemed that because Mazumi's brother named Akai Shuichi always had a straight face and lay expressionless on the beach chair, Mazumi wanted to make him laugh.
So, under Bai Heying's brainstorming suggestion, Mazumi made some tricks, including but not limited to climbing on a parasol and making faces at Shuichi Akai, repeatedly doing gymnastics tumbling in front of him, inserting French fries in his nose and mouth to make a fool of himself, etc. This series of actions can be called performance art.
Until Mary, who was not far away, finally couldn't stand it anymore and walked over.
"Zhenchun, what are you doing?"
"Mom..." All the fries fell to the ground, and Zhenzumi turned back to look at Mary, with an expression that seemed a little scared.
"You're a girl... Really, how can you stick French fries in your nose?"
Without saying too many words of blame, Mary took out a handkerchief and wiped Masumi's face.
"sorry……"
Zhenzhun lowered her head and replied. Just as she finished speaking, another apology sounded from beside Mary.
"I'm sorry!" Mary turned to look, and Bai Heying lowered her head and said loudly to her: "I asked Zhenchun to do this! Please don't scold her!"
"Ah, it's okay. You seem to be... the little girl next to me just now?" Mary recognized Bai Heying and asked.
"Yes." Bai Heying nodded and looked up at Mary.
When she raised her head, Mary saw her face clearly, and she was suddenly stunned.
Although Mary also saw the little girl following Bai Hejing when she and Bai Hejing looked at each other before, because her attention was on Bai Hejing at the time, she did not pay too much attention to Bai Heying.
Now that she suddenly looked at it so closely, Mary suddenly noticed that the appearance of the little girl in front of her was somewhat similar to someone in her memory...
It's Shirakawa Kiyo.
Memories kept flashing back in her mind. Mary subconsciously raised her head, stretched her head towards Bai Heying's face, and asked softly:
"Little girl, your father is..."
"Huh? My father..."
"Xiaoying."
Suddenly, Bai Hejing, who had been watching from the beach chair next to him, interrupted the conversation between the two.
"elder sister?"
"If you don't drink it anymore, your apple juice will belong to me." Bai Hejing gestured to the apple juice placed next to him and said with a smile.
"Wow! Sister Jing, you can't do this!" When Bai Heying heard this, she immediately shouted and ran over.
"Okay, drink slowly, I won't compete with you." She looked gently at Bai Heying who kept sucking through the straw, and Bai Hejing said with a smile.
Then, she turned to look at Mary, who was still standing not far away, and the smile on her face gradually faded.
[Does this family...do they all like checking other people's household registrations so much? 】
The two looked at each other again, but unlike last time, this time it was Mary who looked away first.
[Really, they just happen to look similar. What was I thinking...]
Seemingly feeling that her behavior just now was a bit offensive, Mary smiled bitterly and shook her head.
He suddenly went to ask someone about the little girl's father for no reason, just like a weirdo. It's no wonder that his sister is so wary...
What's more... Bai He passed away ten years ago.
Mary is extremely convinced of this, because this is a fact she personally went to Japan to confirm ten years ago.
Thinking like this, Mary picked up the chips on the ground and walked towards the trash can not far away with Zhenzumi.
"Ah la~ ah la la~ Xiao Jing~ and Xiao Xiaoying~ you two are here too~"
At this moment, a nice female voice came from behind Mary.
She subconsciously looked back and saw a beautiful woman wearing a lady's hat and short brown curly hair.
Under Bai Hejing's frightened eyes, Kudo Yukiko flew toward her who was still lying on the beach chair without any regard for image, and asked excitedly:
"Xiao Jing, are you taking your sister out to play alone today? Where are Bai He and Sharon? Where did they go?"
【Shirakawa? ! 】
When she heard this last name, Mary was stunned again.
[That little girl’s father… also has the surname Baihe? 】
