"Why don't you cook noodles with us?"
Taoyuan Qinyin saw that Mao Lilan was not being polite, but was really feeling a little embarrassed, so she took the initiative to greet her:
"It's just right that after dinner, the three of us can go take a shower together."
It is summer after all, and although the air conditioners in the villa are on, it is still quite hot standing by the fire.
Momozono Kotone and Suzuki Sonoko had just boiled the water and were already sweating profusely. They were just discussing taking a shower after dinner, and now Mouri Ran had arrived, so it was a good opportunity for them to go together.
Mao Lilan did not hesitate. When she heard the owner of the villa speak, she immediately followed the host's wishes and agreed to the other party's invitation.
"Miss Solana, do you want to join us?"
Seeing that Hoshino Aoi seemed to be looking at her from a distance, Momozono Kotone didn't know what she was thinking of. She suddenly looked at her and invited her with a smile.
"I won't go."
Hoshino Aoi raised her eyebrows and refused:
"With Mr. Amuro here, I don't have much work to do myself."
At this point, she glanced at Mao Lilan and said to her:
"I'm going to bring some cold noodles to Conan later, Xiaolan, you can rest for a while."
"Then I'll trouble you, Solana."
Mao Lilan curved her eyebrows and thanked her.
She knew that if Solana had not offered to deliver the food, the job would have been hers in the end. So although she did not explicitly say that she was helping, in Maori Ran's heart, she was actually helping herself.
Therefore, Mao Lilan did not refuse her kindness, but accepted it with a smile.
But just when Hoshino Aoi was about to pick up her bowl and chopsticks and was about to serve the meal——
"I'll go with you."
A pair of hands quickly reached out from the side and picked up the plate that she had not yet had time to hold.
At the same time, a light voice came from the side, with the same gentleness as always.
Hoshino Aoi sighed, feeling somewhat helpless, but with a hint of smile in her expression.
"I clearly remember that when I saw you just now, you were still chatting with Sonoko and the others. How come you came here so quickly?"
Seriously…
She had already told her to do it, so why did she still bring the work upon herself?
Hoshino Aoi felt helpless.
She is not a very diligent person, but when faced with a sensible child like Mao Lilan, she can't help but want to do more things.
But the other party...
It’s not that she doesn’t appreciate it, but it seems that because few people helped her with anything while she was growing up, she often feels embarrassed.
Obviously, considering the help she has given to others, she should get more, but she would feel embarrassed if the other party gave her even a little bit in return.
This made Hoshino Aoi helpless and she didn't know what to do.
She rarely encountered such unconditional devotion.
So far, only Mao Lilan and Judy have given her a similar feeling.
As for Amuro Toru and the others...
They are different from Judy and the others.
Hoshino Aoi also understood in her heart that although she didn't care about it, and could even be said to enjoy it, it was undeniable that between them, she was the one who gave first.
Be it feelings or other aspects.
It was Aoi Hoshino who paid first, and then received the "reward" from others.
Of course, Hoshino Aoi is not caring about anything.
After all, no matter what she did for them, it was ultimately to achieve her own goals.
She just wanted to see them all survive to the end, not 5-4=0.
So Hoshino Aoi thinks it is natural to make some effort for this.
However, when she suddenly meets someone to whom she has not given much, and even her personality during the initial interactions is fake, but in the end she receives unlimited rewards from the other party, it is indeed difficult for her to harden her heart.
never mind……
Since there is already a Judy, adding a Mao Lilan to Solana's friend list is not a big problem.
Anyway, everything is Solana's fault, what does it have to do with her, Aoi Hoshino?
Thinking of this, Hoshino Aoi sighed softly and smiled helplessly:
"Forget it, let's go together. It's just a meal anyway. After Conan finishes eating, we can come back and continue to rest."
Hearing this, Mao Lilan seemed to see something from Hoshino Aoi's face. She curved her eyebrows and said in a light tone:
"Yes, but by the way, would you like to join our ladies' tea party later, Solana? Miss Taoyuan said that Miss Meidao baked some cookies that would be perfect for our afternoon tea."
"Okay, I won't be polite then."
Hoshino Aoi nodded in response.
The two of them walked and chatted, and soon disappeared at the door of the living room.
Seeing this, Toru Amuro withdrew his gaze, but he did not sit down and continue chatting with Kogoro Mori and others. Instead, he turned around and walked in front of Kotone Momozono as he was about to get up and walk over.
"Sorry to bother you, Miss Taoyuan."
Seeing Taoyuan Qinyin stopped talking and looked over, Amuro Toru curled his lips and smiled at her:
"I just overheard Miss Lan say that you're going to have a tea party soon, and I happen to be able to make some snacks, so..."
He seemed to be a little embarrassed as he spoke, but after scratching his head, he still said his request with a smile:
