Just as Jiezi walked to the living room wearing the slippers Hayato prepared for her, she saw the young man who was busy. The pot has been placed in the middle of the table, and other ingredients have been sorted and placed on plates in a circle.
The clean and refreshing young man was wearing a navy blue T-shirt with a cloud pattern on it and gray baggy shorts. He was placing the dishes and chopsticks when he heard footsteps. He looked up and showed a sunny smile towards himself.
"Sister Jiezi, thank you for your hard work. You can eat if you wait a little longer. What should you drink? Coffee or barley tea? The hot water is boiled and I can make you whatever you want."
Looking at the boy who was smiling without a hint of gloom, Jie Zi thought of the past, the little boy whose father was bullied by other bad kids because he was too busy at work. He was told that he had no mother, so he would hide alone under the slide in the park and cry. He would tell himself this while holding back tears every time he found him.
"Sister Jiezi, I'm fine."
Such a sensitive and strong little boy has now turned into a sunny and handsome man.
"You are the one who has worked hard these years."
With a hint of crying, Jiezi didn't know why she was so sad, and quickly turned her head to prevent Hayato from noticing the tears she was about to shed.
Hearing what she said, Hayato also fell into memories. Although those days were not what he had experienced now, he was still affected by the memory when he thought about it. He shook his head and remembered this not so good memory. Still to the back of my head.
"Whatever happened, it's all over. Sister Jiezi, you haven't said what you want to drink yet?"
Hayato asked in a gentle tone after regaining his energy.
"I'll do it myself, but you, go take a bath."
Wiping away a tear from the corner of her eyes, Kiyoko turned around and urged Hayato to take a shower as well.
"Hey, no need, I've already changed my clothes."
"What about that? What if you catch a cold? The water in the bathtub has been put in. Hurry...go."
At the end of her words, Jiezi suddenly realized that the water in the bathtub was something she had just used, and now she was urging him so anxiously, wouldn't it be wrong? . .
"Sister Jiezi is right, then I'll go. By the way, Sister Jiezi, I want to drink wheat tea~"
Sensing Jiezi's embarrassment, Hayato spoke to her in a relaxed tone. After Jiezi nodded, he walked into the bathroom.
"Shimizu Kiyoko, calm down, today is embarrassing enough!"
When Hayato was waiting, Kiyoko gritted her teeth and complained to herself. After she finally calmed down, she did not forget to make tea for Hayato. After unsealing the tea bag, she poured the boiled hot water into the cup. The tea bag quickly floated. When you get up, the aroma of barley spreads under the stimulation of hot water.
"Mmm, it smells so good."
Because Hayato still had to take a shower, but all the preparations that needed to be done were done, so Jiezi could only make herself a cup of barley tea and sit on the chair and drink it in small sips.
Generally speaking, boys take a shower faster than girls. Soon Hayato came out of the bathroom, still wearing the same clothes, but his hair was still a little wet.
"Sorry for the long wait, let's start eating~"
She shook her head to show that she hadn't waited long. After Hayato said that dinner was ready, Jiezi helped him put the ingredients into the pot. After the two of them had a warm meal of sukiyaki, the heavy rain outside showed no signs of stopping.
After discussing for a while, the two decided to go to Hayato's room to review their homework to pass the time.
Except for the first time she came to help clean the room, this was the second time Kiyoko entered Hayato's room. The layout inside was not complicated. There were many sports equipment on the left near the door, and further forward were bookcases and The wardrobe is placed along the wall. In addition to comics, there are professional books and magazines about volleyball and basketball.
On the right is a bed that is larger than a single bed. The head of the bed is against the corner, and the end of the bed is against a desk used for studying.
Opposite the door are two sliding glass windows.
After drawing the curtains, he took out the small desk and cushions. Hayato sat on the side facing the door, while Jiezi sat opposite him. During the study process, Jiezi found that Hayato sometimes failed to understand the knowledge points of the third grade. As you all know, this surprised her.
Hayato can't say that he has learned all this knowledge. He can only use the excuse that he has previewed the advanced knowledge in advance.
Time passed slowly, and the only sound in the room was the sound of a mechanical pencil sliding on paper.
"Speaking of which, Sister Jiezi, why do you always wear black pantyhose?"
Hayato's sudden question startled Kiyoko, because her hair was completely dry and she was now in a loose state. She tucked her hanging temples behind her ears and talked about her past calmly.
When she was in junior high school, Jiezi was in the track and field club. She always had a lot of bumps on her legs because of regular exercise. Gradually, those wounds turned into scars, so exposing her legs was not a good thing for her, so she had to wear black pantyhose. to cover these scars.
Hayato already knew about this, but he still listened to her attentively. When Jiezi smiled bitterly and pointed to the scars on her knees and calves and asked him if they looked ugly, Hayato shook his head.
"Those are proof that you have worked hard, Sister Jiezi. They are not ugly. They are your medals. I only think they look better. How can I find them ugly?"
After saying that, he looked specifically at Jiezi's exposed calves and knees. Since she was not wearing socks, her slippers were placed by the door. Jiezi's slender white feet and round jade toes were all looked at by Hayato. .
"Wait, wait, no, don't look at me like that."
Seeing her like this, Kiyoko immediately pulled down her large T-shirt in an attempt to block Hayato's view, but she didn't know that her actions would only highlight her pure and charming temperament.
With a coo, the already quiet room suddenly heard the sound of Hayato swallowing saliva, and the still shy Kiyoko couldn't help but laugh.
"Wait a minute, Hayato, you just did."
"I didn't, I wasn't, you heard wrong."
Denying Sanlian will not save Hayato, who is already socially dead.
"Really~"
After the torment just now, Jiezi, who had completely let go of herself, asked with a hint of coquettishness, and then she saw a stream of bright red blood flowing from Hayato's nose.
"Pfft, hahaha, you have a nosebleed, Hayato."
Taking out the paper towel on the table and wiping his nosebleed, Hayato wanted to scream in embarrassment. To be honest, he was not Chuge, but Jiezi's destructive power was so great that no one could withstand it.
After wiping it for a few times, it was still not clean. Jie Zi opposite could not stand it anymore and took out a tissue.
"Really, let me help you."
After saying that, she came over and wiped Hayato. Because Hayato was taller when he was sitting, Jiezi had no choice but to keep a kneeling position and straighten her upper body to wipe his nosebleed more easily.
But Kiyoko forgot that she was only wearing the white T-shirt Hayato gave her, but there was nothing underneath.
This straight upper body, plump figure is immediately highlighted, and you can even find something that cannot be explained clearly.
Hayato, who was so stimulated, could not hold back, and directly stretched out his arms to hug Jioko's slender waist. The body temperature of her hands was transmitted directly to her skin through her clothes.
Gradually, both of them were breathing a little faster, and Kiyoko even closed her eyes. But at this time, Hayato came to his senses. He quickly retracted his palm, put it on Kiyoko's shoulder and pushed her away a little.
Jiezi, who was pushed away, first realized what she had done and her face turned red, and then she found that she had been rejected and turned pale again.
Hayato, who knew what she was thinking, quickly explained before the situation got serious.
"That's not the case, Sister Jiezi, listen to me. Although we are childhood sweethearts, we have only reunited for a few days. It may be the atmosphere or the past relationship that has caused the two of us to be like this, but I don't want to It’s so confusing, but you are the person I value most, so we’d better wait.”
After saying this in one breath, Hayato didn't know who he was asking him to make a decision now. He was confused whether it was the original Hayato or the current Su Yun, or maybe both. But after saying all these words, Hayato could feel that he was indeed Much more relaxed.
"So, don't you reject me?"
After Hayato finished speaking, Jiezi also calmed down, and after calming down her mood, she took the initiative to ask.
"That's definitely not the case. Even now, I'm not afraid of embarrassment. I've always liked you, Sister Jiezi, since I was a child. I've also thought about marrying you."
Hayato, who had the memories of these two people, didn't care if it was embarrassing or not, so he told all the memories of his childhood.
"That...that's good."
Jie Zi also breathed a sigh of relief, and she slumped down with some weakness. Everything that just happened was too sudden. Although she was also pushed by the atmosphere, she closed her eyes to prove that she didn't have that intention at all. She has been since she was a child. With her affection now throbbing, Jiezi couldn't deny that she also had new feelings for Hayato.
Now that the two of them have spoken out, the atmosphere has become awkward again. After all, they have just almost stepped into the adult's territory.
Jiezi stood up first and ran downstairs on the pretext of picking flowers (to use the toilet).
Hayato also fell directly backward.
"This is too exciting. Oh my God, something almost happened. Hey, you are more energetic than me."
Feeling a certain place, Hayato twitched the corners of his mouth and complained helplessly.
But what he just said was all his thoughts. There is indeed some ambiguity between Jieyi and him these days, but it is still a long way from love, so Hayato does not regret doing this. The most important thing is that he did not even confess. , it wouldn’t be right to do such a thing first.
On the other side, Jiezi was also cursing herself secretly in front of the sink mirror in the bathroom.
"No matter what, you shouldn't close your eyes. Isn't that equivalent to acquiescence?"
She pinched her cheeks and pinched her twice, and said with some embarrassment.
"But that's what Hayato thinks."
Putting her hands on the sink for support, Jiezi's eyes drifted into the distance.
After a long time, the door opened. After tidying up, Jiezi returned to Hayato's room. Neither of them mentioned what had just happened. After studying for a while, it was time to go to bed.
Because the other bedroom had not been tidied up, Hayato had no choice but to give up the bed to Kiyoko and planned to make a bunk on the first floor. Unexpectedly, Kiyoko grabbed the corner of his clothes and said that he could sleep in the room.
So, Jiezi lay on Hayato's bed, and Hayato made the floor in his room, turned off the light switch, and plunged the room into darkness.
