Chapter XVI
The next day.
Yu leaned against the window alone and looked at the field outside, deep in thought. His gaze turned to the corridor downstairs. The physical education class of the second-year students had just ended, and he saw Nao in the crowd.
He looked at her silently, closed his eyes and sighed softly.
"What's wrong? "What's on your mind?" Cang stood calmly beside him with his hands in his pockets.
"No, it's fine," said leisurely and quietly.
Cang glanced at You and drank a mouthful of water silently. She stood with him and accompanied him so that You's mood would be better. Although she didn't know what he was upset about, at least he wouldn't make him so lonely.
At this moment, someone patted You's shoulder from behind. You turned her head and saw Ryohira's strange smile.
"You, come with me."
"What is it?"
"Just follow me ~" Liang Ping smiled and pulled You out. After You was pulled away by Liang Ping, Cang silently looked out the window and pondered.
On the other side…
"The swimming pool will open soon ~ Hehehe ~" Liang Ping brought You to the rooftop. The two of them leaned against the net, and Liang Ping gave You a wretched smile.
You rolled her eyes at him."I'm not interested ~"
"Why? Just because you're a landlubber?" Ryohira made a drowning gesture to mock Yoyo.
"That's right." You directly accepted this statement.
“？”Liang Ping was stunned.
He stood up slowly and said,"If there's nothing else, I'm leaving." He walked back to the rooftop door quietly.
"Eh? Hey! "Wait!" Liang Ping quickly stood up and chased after him.
"Hey, hey, what I actually want to say is..." Ryohira stood beside You and took out a telescope from his pocket.
You sized him up and asked quietly," Where did you get it?”
" Aiya, don't worry about that. Come here quickly." Liang Ping pulled You back. The two of them stood in front of the net. Liang Ping handed the binoculars to You, who immediately held them in front of her eyes and looked at the place that Liang Ping was pointing at.
It was the school's swimming pool. A group of girls were wearing school swimsuits and cleaning the pool. Although they were cleaning, they were actually playing and cleaning like You and the others last time.
" Hehe, this is the best spot for filming, right?" Liang Ping said with a strange smile.
Yu ignored him and continued to observe. Her eyes swept past the girls and finally stopped on one of them. That girl was Naxo. She was also one of the girls who took turns cleaning the pool. She was holding a water pipe to manage the order, and her eyes were silently watching her.
" Hey, hey! Don't you want to take a closer look?" Liang Ping said wretchedly.
Yu's expression became fierce as she shouted at Liang Ping,"Peeping at Naxu or something!" This is absolutely not possible!"
Liang Ping was stunned. I didn't say that it must be Nao..."
"Eh?" Only then did You react and was stunned.
When Ryohira saw Yu's reaction, he revealed a strange smile and moved closer to his face."Hmph ~~"
"F * ck... Why?" You stuttered,
" If you were a man, anyone would want to see Nao's breasts!" Ryohira exclaimed as he looked outside.
You was stunned for a moment before an image suddenly flashed through her mind.(I'm afraid that I won't be able to pass the trial, so I won't describe it. Anyway, I just thought of what happened between you and Nao when you were young. For more details, please see chapter four of chapter one.)
You silently looked at his hand, recalling the past.
" I'm going back," You said calmly.
"Ah ~ Huh? Hey... Hey!" Liang Ping had already grabbed the binoculars and was looking at it himself, but when he heard You say that, he was immediately stunned and turned to look at his back as he left.
...............
You lowered her head and walked into the classroom silently. She saw Cang still standing in front of the window, calmly looking out.
You lowered her head and walked to her seat. Then, she sat down."I'm back..."
Cang turned his head and glanced at him. Then, he looked out the window and said calmly," What did Liangping say to you?”
"Nothing." You denied it directly.
Cang didn't continue asking, only nodding slightly.
(The current situation here is too complicated for me. First, it's the relationship between Kazuha and Ying. Then, it's the cause of their relationship. Then, it's Qiong's strange behavior. Then, it's the matter that has been troubling You. Moreover, he doesn't want to tell me. What should I do?) Cang thought.
PM.
After Nao finished tidying up the mop, she locked the door to the changing room. She had just walked down the stairs when she stopped and saw Ryohira sitting on his side on the stairs, smiling at her.
"Liangping?" Nao asked first.
"Nao, there's something going on ~"
"Eh?"
Liang Ping smiled slightly,"You, that guy, is interested in you."
When Nao heard this, her face turned red and she asked,"It's difficult..." Could it be that you told Xiaoyou?!”
" I'm not that stupid! This is a feeling that only men can understand!" Ryohira said matter-of-factly.
"I see."
" So you guys should just date," Ryohira said to Nao with a smile.
Nao was stunned. Liang Ping then continued,
"The Prince Charming that I thought I would never see again has appeared again ~" Ryohira stood up and patted his pants.
" No," Nao said quietly.
"I already said it's okay ~"
"This won't do…"
" Why are you still saying that? Nao, what's wrong with that?" Nao quietly walked past Ryohira.
Nao stopped and lowered her head." Because he definitely hates me…" After saying this, Nao carried her bag and ran out.
"Hey! Nao!" He wanted to stop her, but to no avail.
................
Sitting on the floor, he opened his hand and tapped on the contact list. He planned to call Nao, but no one picked up. He raised his head and took a deep breath.
"Still not done?" A cold voice sounded. You hurriedly put her phone into her pocket and turned to the door. She saw Qiong.
" What are you panicking for?" Qiong said coldly while hugging Rabbit.
"No, it's nothing. What's wrong?" You said calmly,
"I'm hungry, hurry up and cook!"
"It's possible... However... There are no more materials at home,"You scratched her head.
"If you don't have the materials, hurry up and buy them! I can't wait that long."
"Oh, alright…I'll go change my clothes first." You smiled bitterly as she walked past Qiong. Qiong noticed his action of hiding the phone but didn't say anything.
After changing her clothes, You stood at the door of her house and said to Qiong," I'll be right back. If I meet Cang on the road, I'll tell him to come back quickly." After saying that, You rode her bicycle and rode out.
After You left, Qiong silently walked into the living room and walked to the clothes that You had just taken off. He took out his phone from his pocket and saw that there were a few calls to Naxu. He expressionlessly looked at the four words " Iyuan Naxu " on the phone.
He clenched his teeth and saw his school uniform at the side. Then, in a fit of anger! He pulled his clothes forcefully!
other side
The sky gradually darkened. Cang walked silently on the road alone, his eyes staring ahead. From time to time, he could hear a dog barking at the door. However, this was not bad. After all, this was the countryside. This made his heart feel much more at peace.
He leisurely put his hands into his pockets and walked quietly under the dusk.
He suddenly stopped and looked at the Ifu Department Store in front of him.
“..”After pondering for a while, he walked over step by step.
"Cough! Sigh! Yes!" Eight Seekers was at the door, forcefully pulling down the iron door.
"Sigh! Yes!" She seemed to be struggling. With a cigarette in her mouth, she pulled down hard.
At this moment…Another pair of hands appeared on the door railing. Ba Xun looked to his side and saw Cang's calm face.
After staring at him for a while, they continued to work. The two of them pulled down hard and gradually, the door was successfully pulled out from the curtain.
The iron door might have been stuck in the curtain, which was why it was so difficult for Baxun alone.
The door of the shop was completely closed. Ba Xun wiped his sweat, then lit another cigarette and started smoking.
She took out a cigarette from her pack and handed it to Cang."Move ~"
" No, I don't smoke." Cang calmly waved his hand. Eight Search saw that he didn't smoke, so he had to take it back.
Puffing out white smoke,
"Phew ~" Cang quietly watched her whip.
Eight Seekers looked at him unhappily." What are you looking at? I've never seen anyone smoke before!"
"No, no, no. I was just waiting for you to speak,"Cang said calmly.
"You brat…She continued to smoke, but Cang just looked at her quietly.
"Phew, why are you looking for me? If you're here to buy something, I'm sorry. I'm already closed. If you don't help me, I'll pay for you."
Eight Seeker continued to smoke as he said coldly to him,
"I'm not here to buy anything."
"If you're not here to buy something, then what's the matter?”Eight Seekers said impatiently,
"I have something to tell you."
"I know! So hurry up and say it! What's going on?" Eight-Seeker said unhappily,
" Alright, then I'll get straight to the point." Cang coughed twice.
"I'm here to ask you about the matter between Zhu Yiye and the Heavenly Lady," Cang said seriously.
Eight Seeker stopped smoking and looked at him unhappily.
"You brat, why do you care about these things? It's not like you like one of them. What's the use of asking about these? "Don't look for trouble for no reason." Eight Xuns 'face turned cold.
Cang still looked at her calmly." This is related to their relationship, so please tell me."
"So what if I tell you? Can't you do anything for them?”It was obvious that Hachi did not believe Cang.
"I'm not sure…But I think I will find a way to solve their family problems."Cang looked at her seriously."
Baxun glanced at his serious expression and looked at the sky. The sky had already darkened.
"You? "I think you also know that Ichiha's family has always been a wealthy and powerful family since her great-grandfather's generation. Moreover, Ying is just an ordinary shrine maiden. How could she have any relationship with the Nagisa family? Don't be a busybody and go back obediently." Hachi took another puff of his cigarette.
Cang lowered his head and thought about it.
"Since you don't believe me, let's make a bet."
"Huh? Bet? What bet?"
Cang smiled." If I can't solve the problem between Ying and One-leaf, then you'll…"
"Just what? I won't agree to money."
"If I win, you have to treat all my friends to a meal."
"Huh? Just this? You're so boring, kid! Anyway, this isn't too much. Alright, I promise you. What if I win?"
"If you win, I'll have to pay three times the price for anything I buy from you."
“.. Alright, deal!"
(Very good, it worked!)
" Speaking of which, what exactly do you want to know? I still don't know what's going on." Eight Seeker scratched his head and said.
"Alright, then I'll explain it briefly. Listen carefully."
" Yes, yes! Hurry up and say it. It's not too late. I'm going to sleep soon."
"Okay, it'll be done soon. Actually,"
................
You held her bicycle and walked on the empty road. The basket in front of the car had the ingredients for dinner.
He was about to reach home when he saw Nao. She opened the mailbox at her door and read the letter.
"Nao!" He shouted,
When Nao heard this, she turned around and saw him not far away.
"Xiaoyou" said quietly to herself.
................
" I'm sorry, I asked you to sew the button for Qiong." You closed the door with her feet and walked in with tea.
Nao smiled slightly.
"It's okay…After all, this is Little Qiong's school uniform. It'll be very troublesome if you don't know how to sew it ~"
"Also…"That's true. Qiong and I don't know anything about this." You scratched her head awkwardly.
“.........”
"What about us…In the past, it was a girls 'high school that mainly studied housework. According to tradition, girls had to sew their own buttons on their uniforms."
Nao used a needle and thread to sew the school uniform that was torn by Dome and said to You who came in with tea.
" I know, Nao has already told me," Yu said naturally with a smile.
"Oh, is that so…" Nao smiled bitterly and said,
“.. Alright, done!" Nao showed the stitched school uniform to Yuu.
"Wow, thank you. You've been a big help."
Yuu smiled and looked at her, and Nao looked back at him.
“........”
"Then…Then I'll go back."Nao stood up and turned to Yu.
"Eh? Wasn't it good to sit for a while longer?”
" Yes, yes, that's all." Nao shook her head gently.
"Then, at least stay for a cup of tea."
"Oh! "This pair of teacups is so nostalgic ~" Nao suddenly said excitedly when she saw the teacups on the table.
"Oh? You still remember ~"You sighed.
" Yes." Nao nodded.
Nao walked to Yuu's side and bent down, using her fingers to stroke the flower cup.
"It will always be placed here, so Xiaoyou's always tastes very sweet."
You smiled slightly." Grandpa always receives gifts when he does checkups for people, so he usually lets me soak in them."
" Mmm, I miss it so much!" Nao sighed as she leaned on the table and looked at the cup.
(When we were young, Qiong, Nao, and I used these cups to drink tea together. Now that I think about it, I really miss it.)
"Ah Le? Why isn't Cang in my memories?”
"Xiaoyou?"
"Ah... It's fine, it's still the best."
“?”Naxo looked at You in confusion.
" Being with Nao like this makes me feel very comfortable." Yuu smiled as she looked at Nao.
Nao was a little surprised and looked at him quietly." Xiaoyou."
You revealed a gentle smile. The two of them looked into each other's eyes.
Their faces slowly came close to each other, and when their lips were about to touch,
The door suddenly opened! The two of them were stunned and immediately separated, their faces flushed red.
"Qiong…Dome…You scratched her head awkwardly.
Qiong frowned and said coldly,"Can't I be here?"
"Oh no…He didn't mean it that way…It's just that you've at least shown your face before."
"Beat... "Sorry to disturb you," Nao greeted him awkwardly.
" I just fell asleep." Qiong ignored Nao's words and retorted to You.
Yuya's consciousness ignored Nao, but she held it in and didn't express it.
"Nao sewed the button for you ~"
" Mm." Qiong opened his eyes and looked coldly at Nao.
Nao took out Tome's school uniform and showed it to her."Jiang Jiang ~"
Dong! Qiong instantly closed the door, causing the entire living room to shake.
The two of them looked at each other in confusion.
"Little Qiong?"
"Uh... I'm sorry, she's probably in a bad mood because she just woke up."
Nao glanced at Yu, her expression starting to worry.
..............
(Recently, Yiye's expression has been very depressed. I don't know what she's thinking. In short, she must have something on her mind that made her absent-minded. Moreover, she and Ying... Perhaps they were hiding something from everyone. By chance, Cang overheard the conversation between Yiye and Ying and learned that Ying was actually Yiye's half-sister. From Yiye's personal description, he learned that Ying was Yiye's father, the old master of the Zhu family. He had given birth to Ying with another woman, which was an illegitimate daughter. Yiye's father did not treat Ying as his own daughter. It could also be said that Yiye's father did not love Ying as much as Yiye did. One Leaf thought that her father was very bad! Ying was clearly his daughter, but he had abandoned her and handed her over to someone else to raise, letting her live that kind of life. This made One Leaf hate his father very much, thinking that his father's gentleness towards her was all fake. You also knew about this matter. Ying told him about it, and she said that she was going to tell him because she trusted You. But in fact, Cang thought that they didn't trust him. He thought that Cang would definitely tell You Qiong about this matter and then plan to help them together. They didn't want to drag themselves into this matter. She didn't want to cause trouble for them. Cang had indeed come. He had already vowed to find out the root of this relationship! And end this emotional dispute! However, these clues were far from enough. There were still many more details that he had yet to figure out, so he needed to continue investigating. The only person who was related to Ying and had a deep understanding of her was probably her guardian, Ba Xun. Therefore, he wanted to find out what they had experienced when they were young and what had happened to Ao Muran after he left. He had to find out!）
"That's it." Cang coughed twice after he finished speaking.
Baxun covered his forehead with his hand and felt a headache coming on." You brat, you talk too much. You've turned a simple explanation into a detailed explanation."
As the two of them talked, they ran to the backyard of the house. Eight Seeker had already taken off his shoes and was ready to sleep at any time. He stood on the floor and said,
"Anyway, can you tell me now?"
"Sure, but I don't have time now. I'm in a hurry to sleep."
When Cang heard this, he looked at the sky. The moon was already above his head. He looked at his phone. 49 points
"That's right. I think I should leave too. I'll come back next time. Then, I'll take my leave."
Cang turned around and prepared to walk out of the courtyard.
"Wait!" Suddenly, Ba Xun called out to Cang, who turned to look at her.
Eight Seeker took out a bottle of water from the shelf in the house and threw it to Cang. After Cang caught the water, Eight Seeker stood in front of the back door and said,
"I'll tell you the details later. Right now, I can only tell you a little."
Cang listened quietly, and Ba Xun scratched his head.
"Ying was indeed handed over to someone else to be raised. You're right about that, but you still don't understand the situation in that family. Ever since Ying entered that family, Ying's 'parents' often quarreled with Ying's 'grandfather' and argued every day over this child of unknown origin. Ying spent her childhood arguing, and only her grandfather sympathized with this child and took care of her like a biological granddaughter. Once he quarreled with his son and daughter-in-law, he was determined not to abandon Ying. Instead, she verbally attacked her son and daughter-in-law. Not long after, the couple at home went to the big city with the excuse of being busy with work, leaving only Ying and her grandfather to rely on each other, and... Cough cough! That's all I have to say! You can go back now."
BaXun waved his hand to drive Cang away
Cang lowered his head and thought about it." Alright, thank you for telling me this. This will be beneficial to both Ichiha and Ying."
"Alright ~! Cut the crap! Hurry up and leave!"
Cang nodded slightly and walked out of the courtyard, walking in the direction of home.
...............
"Yes!" Qiong sat alone in the room. He sat on the floor and took off all the buttons of his school uniform to sew himself. As a result, his index finger was bleeding.
Qiong looked at the blood on his index finger and sucked it dry.
" It's so late and you're still awake." Cang's voice came from the door. Qiong looked at the door calmly. Cang was leaning against the door frame, watching her sew.
Qiong ignored Cang and continued to sew the buttons. Cang leaned against the door calmly and watched how she did it.
After a moment of silence, Cang said seriously and calmly,
"Although I don't know why you hate Nao so much…But I know that you're jealous…"
Qiong stopped and glared at him fiercely.
" Alright, let's not talk about it. You'll get angrier if we continue," Cang walked out of Qiong's room and closed the door.
Qiong lowered his head and thought,"You clearly know best"
She lowered her head and continued to sew buttons…
