By the time Baiyunshan came back, it was already close to nine o'clock in the evening.
He first sent the store manager back and chatted for a while, but while chatting he lost track of time and came back after having a meal.
The air in Wutongzaka is cold and chilly, but it is not far from the seaside after all, so it is not particularly dry. It just feels like a mist-shrouded frost on the body.
However, at this moment, he saw a familiar figure waiting under the streetlight in front.
Baiyunshan saw her, and she naturally saw Baiyunshan.
The two of them were separated by a distance, and neither of them spoke first, but just looked at each other from a distance.
Baiyunshan was surprised by her arrival, but she didn't know how to speak for a while.
Fortunately, the former was not a dull fool. After reacting, he took the initiative to close the distance and eased the weird atmosphere. He said, "Hashimoto, are you here to see me?"
"..."
Hashimoto Nana looked around him quietly and didn't answer, but her meaning was obvious.
Baiyunshan smiled awkwardly. That's right. In this case, if he wasn't looking for him, who was he looking for? So he hesitated for a moment and then asked: "What's the matter?"
This time it was the girl's turn to hesitate. She hesitated for a moment, then reached into her arms and took out a scarf.
Pass it to Baiyunshan.
Baiyunshan was stunned for a second, then reached out to take it.
The scarf carries the girl's body temperature and a faint indescribable fragrance, like the cold snowflakes in the vast sky and earth, refreshing.
"Is this..." Baiyunshan looked a little unnaturally and asked the girl hesitantly.
"I didn't knit it myself!" Hashimoto Nanami's face was still calm, and there was nothing strange about it, but her speech was unexpectedly fast, and her voice was slightly higher than one decibel.
"I know......"
"I bought it at a convenience store on the way here!"
"I also know..."
"Don't misunderstand-"
The voice of these words suddenly became lower.
What's the misunderstanding? Baiyunshan smiled bitterly and touched his head. The label and packaging on the scarf had not yet been opened. Of course he could tell that the girl bought it, but he couldn't think of how to answer it at the moment.
After a moment of silence, Baiyunshan took the initiative to ask his question: "But, why did you give me this?"
The girl had her own reasons: "I checked, today is a festival called New Year's Eve at Baiyun-sang's place, right?"
Baiyunshan couldn't help but glance at her in surprise: "You actually know this?"
Wenhuaqiao curled up the corners of his mouth in a subtle way, but quickly blended into the night: "I prefer reading, and I know a lot about China, and I have also learned some Chinese."
"Awesome, awesome." Baiyunshan could only clap his hands lightly.
Then, he continued: "So, you gave me this scarf because of this?"
The girl shook her head and said, "That's not all. Did Baiyun Sang go to the cemetery just now?"
"Um?"
"Are you going to visit your parents?"
"how do you know?"
"It's very simple, isn't it? You can guess a thing or two from Baiyun Sang's clothes, plus the mud stuck to the heels, and the meaning of today's festival, it's not difficult to guess this result, right?"
She said that, but after she finished speaking, her eyes were fixed on the ground in front of Baiyun Mountain, as if she was not ready to praise me.
Baiyunshan was once again surprised by the intelligence and delicate thinking of the girl in front of him, and praised him in unison: "You are so smart, it would be a pity to become a little idol instead of becoming a famous detective to become famous!"
"Where." As he said this, the girl's expression was quite helpful.
"So, you just give me a scarf?"
"Yeah, the weather is getting colder and the wind is getting stronger. The scarf should be good, right?"
"Thanks."
Baiyunshan sincerely thanks you.
The relationship between the manager and the idol can be called colleagues or friends, but the former is obviously the majority. The fact that the girl could buy him a scarf really made him feel warm in his heart. In his opinion, this at least regarded him as a friend rather than a colleague.
Hmm... It seems that my ramen and barbecue were not in vain——
Wait, change this sentence, replace ramen and barbecue with sincerity, yes, that's it.
There was also a smile on Hashimoto Nanami's lips. She had never liked owing favors to others. In her philosophy of life, this kind of thing must be paid back sooner or later. She has always kept Baiyunshan's help to her in mind, whether it was the rescue on the day of their first meeting or the performance of the Lantern Festival, these experiences were silently remembered by the delicate girl, waiting for the day of reward.
She doesn't hate this man either. Just as Bai Yunshan said, Hashimoto Nanami also feels that the two of them are actually very similar in some aspects. The topics they often resonate with during chats and the similarity in worldview are a reflection of this. This wonderful tacit understanding made her feel extremely at ease.
And peace of mind is what a girl desires most.
She couldn't let go of her guard, especially after her father passed away. The eldest daughter lost her father's love and had to become her father to take care of herself and her family. So she chose to go to Beijing regardless of her family's opposition and chose to work hard. She wanted to take care of this increasingly distressed and precarious family on her father's behalf.
She has not felt this kind of security for a long time since she came to Beijing alone. Security has always been something that girls deliberately avoid but desperately long for. A person came to work in a strange environment, met all strange people, and could not see good or evil on their indifferent faces, which made her slowly and invisibly build a high wall early on.
It can be said that she is a very ambitious girl.
The word "Zhengqi" means having to do something in a certain sense.
Baiyunshan joked with her, made her laugh, and made her angry, but two people with similar personalities could detect each other's thoughts from their tacit understanding. The girl knew that this was just to let her down her guard.
There are not so many dangers here, there are no intrigues everywhere, this is a place where you can find yourself.
Hashimoto Nana didn't understand that Baiyun Mountain had been sending this message all along.
Therefore, when encountering harassment, he would take the initiative to help them drive people away; when he was worried about the issue of rent cancellation, he would not hesitate to take over the matter and help face the rumored acrimonious Mrs. Ueno; even if he explained it in advance He knows the problems faced on stage, and when he senses the girl's thoughts, he will also take the initiative to go on stage to fulfill her wish.
The same is true for the recent live.
There are differences between boys and girls. Hashimoto Nanami's delicacy is from the outside to the inside, and the delicate tenderness of a girl can be seen at a glance. Baiyunshan, on the other hand, is wrapped up in laziness, cheating, and complaining with subtleties disguised in layers. They are so similar, but yet so completely different.
However, even Baiyun Sang, who wants to protect himself from the wind and rain, will still be lonely sometimes——
Nana Hashimoto thought to herself.
Compared with the girl who lost her father, Baiyunshan who lost her parents was undoubtedly more lonely in her eyes. The emotions that others could not understand were clear to her, after all, she had experienced it herself. At least Hashimoto Nana can still talk to her mother in Hokkaido to comfort her emotions, but Baiyunshan cannot.
He was alone in the storm for several years.
That's why when she first came to her place of residence in Baiyun Mountain and saw the yellowed photo, she felt that Baiyun Mountain was very powerful.
Because in Hashimoto Nana's view, she had already struggled so hard after losing her father, but Baiyunshan, who had lost both parents, could still look at it indifferently. He was undoubtedly much better than her.
Hashimoto Nana couldn't help but laugh at herself. She looked at Baiyun Mountain and saw that he had already unpacked the scarf.
The neatly stacked scarves stretch out and are extremely soft, and the delicate and warm touch on your hands makes you want to wrap them around your neck to block the pervasive cold wind.
But Baiyunshan did not do this.
A strange smile appeared on his face.
Hashimoto Nana looked at the scarf and showed a hint of embarrassment.
The two looked at each other and were silent for a long time.
"Hashimoto, it seems you are not good at comforting others, right?"
Baiyunshan raised his eyebrows and looked at the scarf in his hand.
Of course, the material of the scarf is not a problem, but the problem is the color. The scarf illuminated by bright lights arrogantly displays her own death Barbie fan, and the girl's heart is bursting at a glance. But it's a pity that this color doesn't look like what Baiyun Mountain should be wearing.
The girl's cheeks suddenly turned red.
The two people with similar personalities are naturally similar in comforting people. She is actually very bad at comforting others. She used to laugh at Baiyun Mountain, but now it seems that she is more like laughing at the fifty steps and the hundred steps.
She subconsciously wanted to say something, but when she saw Bai Yunshan put the scarf directly around her neck, wrapped it in a circle, and said lightly: "Well, forget it, it's fine as long as it works. I'm feeling a little cold!"
Hashimoto Nana was slightly startled.
The black and white suit is upright and looks serious when paired with the dome hat, but wearing a pink scarf gives people a rather funny look, and the two look out of place. But there was no strange or dissatisfied look on the face of the wearer. On the contrary, he looked very happy, as if the joking words just now were just an illusion.
People who are not good at comforting others are gradually becoming more skilled at it.
The girl couldn't help but think.
Hashimoto Nana looked up at the man who was still talking about the advantages of this scarf, and couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
Although we say we have made progress, don't be so obvious when comforting people. If you are too obvious, the effect will not be that good, you idiot.
But... I'm still very happy.
The girl couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
It would be really nice to feel that you are cared about.
"What's wrong? Hashimoto."
Seeing that the girl suddenly stopped talking and was lost in thought, Baiyunshan couldn't help but say something strange.
Hashimoto Nana didn't react and quickly said: "No."
Finally, she seemed to have thought of something again, and said goodbye with a calm smile.
"As long as you are satisfied, then I'll see you tomorrow, Baiyun Sang."
"Ah, see you tomorrow."
Baiyunshan looked at the girl in front of him, and suddenly felt that she seemed to have undergone some subtle changes, like the winter snow thawing under the glacier, and the early spring was approaching. It was so small that it was difficult to detect, but it was an earth-shaking change.
But he couldn't tell what it was.
The shadows of the two people gradually drifted away under the street lights until they disappeared.
