Mid-Autumn Festival
"Is everything settled over there?" Her black hair was tied up high, and two long strands of hair fluttered in the wind beside her pink cheeks. Yu Ji held a large cardboard box that was half her height with both hands and stood in a circle behind Yin Ye and Xiang, who were squatting on the ground and starting a fire.
The two of them turned around when they heard the voice."Thanks, Yuki. You can put that aside."」Xiang stood up and took the seemingly heavy cardboard box. Yin also cleared a spot for Xiang to put the box.
"What's in here?" Xiang placed the cardboard box on the empty space, clapped his hands and turned to Yu Ji."It feels like there are a lot of things."」Yin also leaned over to the box and peeked at the gap that was deliberately left on the head, wanting to know what it was.
"Spring Song and I have put the barbecue grill and some useful tools inside, so you can use them as much as you can!」Youji tilted her head and smiled, then turned her body slightly."Then I'll go and prepare the ingredients with Spring Song ~"
After Youji finished speaking, she turned around and ran back to the sink not far away. From this position, she could see Spring Song standing beside the iron-gray table, distributing the vegetables.
[What a pity…Senpai and the others all said they weren't interested.]」Ren and Shin Dou walked out of the dormitory, their expressions full of helplessness and pity.
Yin Ye and Xiang immediately walked over when they saw the two of them."Even Ling Er said he's not interested?"」Yin lowered her head sadly, but Xiang didn't seem surprised.」After saying that, he sighed.
Shin Dou shrugged."We knew this would happen. Fortunately, we found Yuki."」,"Yeah, what about the others?" Lian Dong looked around and finally pulled his gaze back to Yin Ye and Xiang.
"Kazuyoshi and I are also in charge of starting the fire. Chunge, Yuki, and Tokiya are in charge of handling the ingredients. Natsuki and Cecil are in charge of buying drinks.」Xiang put his hands on his hips and continued,"I don't know what to do for you...?"」
Yin also looked at the frowning Soo Queen and paused for a second. At this time, he caught the box that Yuki had just brought over from the corner of his eye. He clapped his hands and said,"Then, can Shindo and Ren help to assemble the barbecue grill?"」
The two people who were ordered to work looked at each other."Of course."」Ren showed a cheerful smile and walked over to the cardboard box pointed at by Otoya's index finger.」After hearing this, Zhen Dou immediately walked over and took out all the tools inside and assembled them.
It was past 6 pm. The seven of them were preparing for the barbecue in the backyard of the dormitory. The other two, Na Yue and Cecil, went to a convenience store at the junction of the city and the suburbs to buy some drinks and a little surprise for them!
[I wonder if Qi Hai likes to play this.]」Na Yue held a cylindrical paper tube in her hand. It was wrapped in colorful wrapping paper, giving off a mysterious feeling.
[Then, are these drinks enough?] Cecil came over with a bunch of drinks of all sizes."I don't know what you like to drink…so I just took a few bottles."」Hearing Cecil's voice, Na Yue immediately looked up, but…the thing in Cecil's hand didn't look like Han Fei.
"Uh... Cecil, those seem to be wine.」Yue scratched her face and smiled bitterly.? Is that so?" Cecil looked down at the bottles and jars in his arms and realized that they were all wine…
" Haha... I took the wrong one." Cecil laughed as he retreated." I'll go change." After retreating to a certain point, he turned around and ran out. Na Yue smiled as she watched Cecil disappear. She waited for him to completely disappear before she squatted down and continued to choose the things wrapped in delicate wrapping paper.
In addition, Yuki, Harunge, and Tokiya were busy washing, separating, and slightly heating all the ingredients. They were afraid that everyone would think of performing if they ate half-cooked or unhealthy food, so they had to be especially careful.
"I'm done here ~" Youji said as she placed a large bucket of green vegetables on the iron-gray table."Thank you for your hard work."」Spring Song, who had been standing by the table, looked over with a smile.
Youji waved back with a smile,"No, I won't."」,"I've also boiled the meat here. You can eat it after grilling it.」Shi Shi carried the plate and walked towards the two of them.
[He's so strong, the familiarity is just right!] Yuki leaned over to look at the half-cooked ingredients on the plate and could not help but admire Tokiya.
[Spring Song ~ We've lit a fire!] "A voice broke into the space between the three of them, and everyone looked in the direction of the source of the voice.」Spring Song jogged over to welcome Xiang.
"Are you ready here? You can start hugging!" Xiang looked at the two people behind Spring Song."Of course."」Tokiya picked up the plate again and looked at Yuki.」
Yu Ji nodded, turned around, and quickly separated the ingredients. Spring Song also picked up her plate and said,"Wait for us, Xiang."」Hearing Spring Song say this, Xiang immediately took Spring Song's plate and said,"I'll come too."」
[This way, this way ~ I've vacated my seat!]」Yin stood beside the barbecue grill that Ren and Shinto had assembled together and waved vigorously.
There were a few chairs on the cement floor where there was only a table when Youji brought the barbecue grill over. It seemed that everyone had borrowed them from the dormitory.
[Everyone is amazing!] Spring Song quickly placed the ingredients on the table and looked at everyone with admiration. " Haha! This is how we hug when we're united!" Ren, who was squatting beside the barbecue grill to check on the charcoal, turned around and winked at Spring Song.
[Sigh ~ None of the Ling Ling's are coming.] Youji wiped the sweat off her forehead and pouted as she looked at the lit room on the second floor of the dormitory. Her heart was filled with regret and displeasure.
It was clearly a rare Mid-Autumn Festival, a time to reunite and have fun, so why didn't he come no matter how hard he tried? The main point was that even Shou Ling Er, who had the most team spirit, expressed that he did not really want to participate.
When he saw Yuki frowning, he immediately said,"Maybe they really want to participate. They're just too busy to come."」Yu Ji came back to her senses because of this sentence and gave Yin a smile.」
[Then let's start roasting meat!] Xianggao raised his hand and shouted,"I was so busy that I forgot I was hungry!」Shinto took the ingredients from Tokiya and placed them on the shelf with a pair of clips.
Everyone immediately started to roast the food. Youji and Spring Song also began to skewer the ingredients that had been split up and put them on the rack to roast.
" Everyone, let's buy it and hug it!" The familiar gentle voice of a man entered the ears of everyone who was lowering their heads to roast meat. Everyone suddenly looked up.
[Na Yue, Cecil!] Spring Song put down the skewers and meat skewers in her hands and ran over quickly. Youji, who was beside her, also followed.
[Wow! He bought so much! Thank you for your hard work." Spring Song bowed slightly."I'll help you get it."」Youji, who followed him, took the bag filled with bottles from Cecil.
" It's very heavy... Be careful." Cecil waited for Yuki to get used to the weight before letting go. But it was really quite heavy…After all, Han Fei, who had everyone's weight in it, was heavy.
[Welcome back!] Yin also stood up and took the bags from Cecil and Youji's hands before running over to take them.
"Can this be grilled?"」
[Y-Yes, you can.] Youji shook her aching hand and sat back down to continue skewering. "What do you want to eat?" Zhen Dou walked to Yuki's side.
Youji's mind suddenly went blank. She held her forehead and tried hard to think,"Hmm…I think you can eat whatever you roast!"」
Shin Dou opened his mouth slightly in surprise, but then retracted his expression."Alright, then you should come along when you have time later."」He said that because Youji was sitting alone here, and Spring Song had already run over to barbecue with everyone. He was a little worried about her, so he said that.
Youji paused for a moment and turned her face away in embarrassment. I'll hurry over." Her originally fair and tender cheeks were slightly pink, and her eyes were more stubborn.
[Shindo ~ Come over quickly! Your flesh is going to be burnt!" Natsuki, who had joined the barbecue, urged Shin Dou in front of Yuki. Yuki slightly shifted her gaze back."The meat, the meat is going to be burnt..."」
"Then I'll go over first. Everyone's waiting for you.」After saying that, Zhen Dou turned around and strode back.
You Ji looked at everyone who was talking and laughing, and suddenly a warmth surged in her heart.
Although she had attended all kinds of parties when she was young, she had always sat in the corner and watched others. Now that she was suddenly invited so warmly, it was inevitable that she was not used to it. However, this might also be a good opportunity to get to know everyone better.
Youji silently concluded in her heart. Her hands did not stop as she ran over after finishing all the remaining ingredients.
"Youji, come over here. I've baked some for you.」Chun Ge pulled Youji over and asked her to sit beside her. Youji didn't say anything and just sat with Chun Ge.
[Oh ~ Youji is here to snatch the food!] Xiang deliberately narrowed his eyes and stared at Yu Ji, who had puffed up her cheeks."I, I won't eat it all!"」She turned her face away, and the others laughed.
[Alright, hurry up and do it!] Tokishi clapped his hands and asked everyone to pay attention to the time to avoid causing trouble for others. Everyone also stood up from their chairs in response to his words and began to grill their food.
Chun Ge and Yuki were in charge of brushing the food on the shelves with barbecue sauce, Cecil carefully poured the drinks into the glasses, Shin To and Ren shredded the vegetables that Yuki had washed and kept them for decoration later, Yin Ya and Tokiya carefully took care of the meat slices and various food that could be burnt at any time on the shelves, while Xiang and Natsuki temporarily left the table and went somewhere.
"Smells good ~" Youji was enjoying the fragrance of the barbecue sauce as she brushed it on the table. If there were passersby passing by at this time, they would probably drool, right?
"Yes, it's all thanks to everyone's help that it smells so good.」Chun Ge's eyes were filled with happiness as she focused on the rowdy crowd.
Yuki stared at Haruka for a long time before she slowly followed her gaze…Cecil who accidentally spilled his drink, Tokiya who accidentally overcooked his drink because he was too particular about the rules, Shinto Kazuren who accidentally cut his head…Everyone occasionally made small mistakes, but they were not intentional mistakes, so she was glad that she could follow them and be by their side.
By the time Xiang and Na Yue returned, the food was almost done roasting and had been distributed.
Therefore, everyone had something to eat, and there was no need to fight for it.
[Wow! It's so delicious!] Yin also took a big bite of the meat skewer, her face filled with satisfaction as if she wanted to fly into the sky.
"That's too exaggerated ~" Lotus smiled lightly."But it's really delicious."」
Shin Dou and Tokiya nodded."The results of everyone's division of labor are very different."」Tokiya raised his glass.」
[Oh ~!] Xiang raised his glass to indicate that he wanted everyone to join him. When everyone had raised their glasses, he said,"3, 2, 1... Cheers!"!』。」
[Alright, you have to finish all of this!]」Na Yue picked up the plate and looked at everyone with a smile."It's a small matter ~ watch me!"」Xiang stuffed the hot meat into his mouth.
However, the next second, a warning came from his tongue."It's too hot!」Therefore, Xiang immediately grabbed a bottle of drink and poured it into his mouth that was invaded by the heat. When the drink in the bottle was empty, his mouth was slightly relieved.
Some of the others were smiling and some were worried, but he didn't seem to care.
[Hahaha ~ I stuffed too much at once!]」Xiang grabbed his hair and laughed mockingly.
After an hour, everyone had finished all the food that had been prepared and had roughly tidied up. They sat down and rested.
Youji noticed that two people were missing and immediately looked around to search for them.」
[This…] Cecil replied, his face as if he was hiding something.
However, at this moment, four lightning-like beams of light ran out of the forest in front of them!
[Everyone ~ Come and play ~!] Xiang's hands were holding onto the flashing lightning-like light beam. Beside him, Yue's hands were also holding onto it, just that the color was different.
[That is…!] Yu Ji immediately stood up and ran over, and the others followed suit.
[Hehe ~ I bought this specially that month!]」Xiang gave one of the bunches to the eager Youji in front of him.
[Ah ~ Spring Song, look, it's super beautiful!]」Youji was like a child who got a new toy and happily showed it off to the spring song that followed behind her.
[Wow, this feels very interesting!] Yin also took the unlit fairy stick that Na Yue distributed to everyone."Since fireworks are not allowed, we'll use this instead."」Natsuki smiled as she explained how to use it.
After everyone finished a round, they decided to arrange the sparklers in circles.
"Are you ready?" Spring Song and Youji formed a circle together.
[It's okay here!] Xiang Gao raised his hand."It's also very nice here!」Yin followed after Xiang and said,"It's done.」Shindo and Ren brushed off the dirt on their hands and stood up.
[The connection is complete!] When Cecil, Natsuki, and Tokiya were done, everyone immediately ran in circles.
"Good hugs ~" After everyone walked out, Xiang and Yin also lit up the sparklers at both ends. When it was ignited, it immediately shot up like a small star, then spread to the next one, and then extended to the inner circle.
One by one, the flames of different colors quickly burned toward the inner circle, and finally connected at the innermost circle.
" It's so beautiful!" Youji and Chun Ge's eyes reflected the dazzling halo in front of them.
[This is considered a full moon on the ground!] Xiang nodded his head in satisfaction and looked up at the brightest moon in the starry sky.
"Happy Mid-Autumn Festival ~" Everyone also looked up to admire the moon with Xiang and said the same words almost at the same time.
