Chapter 34 French Hell Joke
Would you like France?
Yuihara Xiangcheng opened many web pages about France, each of which showed the country's history, culture and art from a different perspective.
She was not surprised that Seiichi Yukimura liked such a country, nor was she surprised that he chose France as the first stop to launch his career.
But when I said "yes" impulsively just now, it was as if I was possessed by something.
She still knows nothing...
To be honest, the thing she mentioned most about France was the hellish joke about Louis XVI turning around, which she liked.
It must be because of the beauty!
Xiangcheng stroked the painting with his hands. The person in the painting seemed so dazzling, emitting golden light like an angel descending.
Anyone can see the artist's intentions.
So when Yukimura asked about the future, she didn't contradict him. But... she didn't know if it was right or wrong.
She was so confused.
She walked under the bright sun called "Volleyball", obscured from her senses of the outside world. Suddenly, someone stretched out his hand to block her eyes, allowing her to see everything around her clearly - but it was all white.
Xiangcheng bit her lower lip, placed the painting on the bedside, and then collected the gifts from her friends one by one.
Finally, I opened the express deliveries that were sent from other places.
From the few friends she once had.
The game cards that Grind gave me every year, the VNL game highlights video that Xiao Hei gave me this year, Haruko's handmade "orange", and the Osaka specialties sent by Tianyan Hanari who is far away in Kansai - it fits Hanari's personality as a foodie very well.
Yuihara Xiangcheng, who hadn't posted on social media for eight hundred years, finally sorted out the gifts and downloaded a few good photos from her teammates' group, which she put together into a nine-square grid and posted.
Soon the phone started to make continuous "ding ding ding" notification sounds, and Xiangcheng had to turn it back to silent mode.
This brings us back to the semi-socially disconnected Yuihara Xiangcheng.
She finally calmed down and continued to read the pages about France and studying in France.
In the abandoned mobile phone, everyone was having fun in the comment section.
[Yukimura Seiichi]: (Like) Happy birthday, have a sweet dream!
[Mizunoe Haruko]: (Likes) The reappearance of missing people? Rikkai University is awesome!
[Yanagi Renji]: My XX user guide is actually lumped into the same category as Bunta's love guide?
[Bunta Marui]: You must read carefully!
[Rika Sakurai]: You've seen through the true nature of friendship, so that painting should be the centerpiece, right?
[Kuroo Tetsuro]: Seeing you're so popular now, I'm so relieved! Old father in tears.jpg
......
The little monster meowed and burrowed into her arms, resting its little head against her chin. Xiangcheng's gaze shifted from the Ile-de-France University League page, she released the mouse, patted the little monster's head, and said lovingly, "What's wrong? Did Dahu bully you again?"
The little monster rubbed her hand and whimpered in response.
Xiangcheng stood up, and Xiaoguai consciously put his front paws on her shoulders. The man and the cat went downstairs. There was a night light in the living room specially left for the two of them. Dahu squatted in front of the bowl and licked the plate attentively.
Well, there is no food.
She picked up the little monster with both hands and said, "Do you still know that food is coming?"
The little monster looked at her innocently with his side bangs.
After putting it on the ground, Xiangcheng turned on the kitchen light, found the chicken breast and cod meat from the refrigerator, took them to the microwave to thaw, and then cut them into pieces. He used a small pot specially for cats to make soup and mixed it with the staple food particles. The fragrant cat food was ready.
Da Hu was anxious to climb up by climbing up her legs, but Xiangcheng was wearing shorts, so he didn't dare to stretch out his claws. He could only hug her legs and call her in an extremely flattering manner.
Long after others told Da Hu that he was too fat, Xiang Cheng took him to the pet hospital. Fortunately, the doctor said that it was not a big problem and he just needed to eat less at each meal.
So poor Big Tiger only ate until he was 70% to 80% full every day, and he couldn't bear it when he heard that it was time to eat.
Watching them finish their respective portions, Xiangcheng still couldn't bear it and added some extra soup for Dahu - the child licked the bowl of rice with a dazzling glow, which formed a sharp contrast with the little monster who ate most of it in a sloppy manner.
Raising a child is so difficult.
Xiangcheng suddenly felt the urge to talk, so she lay on the bed, opened her phone, and clicked off all the red dots in the dynamic messages. Without really reading what they were saying, she returned to the chat page and found Mizunoe Haruko.
He typed a sentence and then withdrew it.
It's half past ten.
Given Haruko's recent strict schedule, her cell phone should have been taken away.
Xiangcheng flipped through his not-so-many contacts and finally clicked on Yukimura Seiichi, whose profile picture was his most proud pot of daisies.
"Yukimura, raising a child is so difficult."
The message arrived, but it remained unread. Perhaps Yukimura had fallen asleep, so Xiangcheng closed it and went to wash up.
"Ahem," Yukimura Seiichi, who was drinking milk, remembered to remind Xiangcheng to go for a run. When he opened his phone, he saw...
Xiao Xia slid off the stool, came over and stretched her body: "Brother, what did you see?"
Yukimura came back to his senses, picked up his sister and put her on his lap, then handed her milk cup to him: "It's not a big deal. Okay, Xiaoxia, you must drink all the milk!"
Xiao Xia blinked her beautiful iris-purple eyes and took her cute pink cup: "Thank you, brother!"
——Raising a child is not difficult!
Yukimura thought to himself.
He'd better not ask Yuihara Kaoru why she thought of such a thing.
I just suddenly thought - what was Xiangcheng like when she was a child?
He looked at Xiaoxia with a milk stain around her mouth and wondered if Xiangcheng was also so soft and cute when she was a child?
I'm starting to feel a little jealous of Xiangcheng's childhood friends.
He helped Xiao Xia wipe her mouth, said goodbye to the other family members at the table, and went upstairs to change clothes before replying, "No, I think it's very interesting! It's a very challenging thing."
After a few minutes, Xiangcheng replied, "It would be better if Dahu and Xiaoguai weren't so greedy and the other one wasn't so picky."
Sure enough, he knew it just by looking at Xiangcheng’s avatar of the stacking game of tigers and monsters.
"But Xiangcheng still took care of it patiently, didn't she?"
This time, he replied immediately. It was a photo taken in front of the mirror. Da Hu, who had gained a little weight, was lying on Xiang Cheng, who was wearing pajamas, staring at the phone stupidly.
The message was withdrawn a few seconds later - Xiangcheng hurriedly sent another photo of two kittens eating.
Sent the wrong photo...
Yukimura exited the chat and opened the withdrawn photo from the album.
It was indeed a girl I had never seen before, Yuihara Kaoru, wearing Hello Kitty pajamas and with messy hair.
Yukimura guessed that she was most likely sending it to Mizunoe or Sakurai.
But...
The two of them agreed to run together on the seaside trail last night. Xiangcheng prepared herself mentally for the fact that "he definitely didn't see the photo, which only took a few seconds", while stretching her body while waiting for Yukimura to come over.
Xiangcheng's physical strength is not as good as Yukimura's - when they arrived at the agreed location, Yukimura had already run two kilometers.
He slowly slowed down and stopped right in front of Xiangcheng: "Are you done stretching?"
Xiangcheng nodded, twirling her ankles. She jumped in place for a moment, then pulled out her headphones and prepared to put them on. She explained, "I can't control my cadence very well. I'll speak softly, but you can still hear me."
Yukimura's palms were facing up: "Then give me one too!"
"Okay," Xiangcheng took off the one on the right ear and handed it to Yukimura: "180?"
"No problem~"
The song with the ticking of the cadence started, and the two of them started running side by side.
The best summer day in Kanagawa, a refreshing breeze by the sea, the warm sunlight behind, the brisk ticking of pure music in my headphones, the rhythmic breathing of those around me...
Like compensation.
It's a scene that makes people happy even without saying a word.
"I can't do it anymore," Xiangcheng panted and slowed down, "I can't run anymore."
Yukimura, whose breathing was still steady, also slowed down: "Then let's take a break!"
The two of them walked back slowly.
Yukimura took off his headphones and gave them back to Xiang Cheng, who exclaimed, "Wow, you really are... a physical freak."
Yukimura smiled, looking at the nearby sea: "One day - I just walked along this road, I don't know what I was thinking, I walked all the way to Tokyo."
Xiangcheng exclaimed again, "That's so far! Have you thought about your whole life?"
"Hmm... probably just thinking about winning a tennis championship!"
"Just one?" Xiangcheng looked at him with an expression that said, "I didn't expect that this was the only wish you had."
Her expression greatly pleased Yukimura, as if in her heart, he was the kind of person who could easily get what he dreamed of.
Such natural, complete trust.
"So, Xiangcheng, have you thought about that question again?"
"What?" Xiangcheng still didn't react.
Yukimura once again asked her seriously: "Going to France?"
"Ah," Xiangcheng thought about the many web pages she opened last night. "They all seem pretty good! But—I haven't decided which university to go to or what major to study yet!"
"It's okay," Yukimura thought about many things in an instant: "We can think about these things slowly, but as long as you are willing to go... can we start with the language?"
"Okay! Do you want to sign up for the class?"
"You can learn by following the system, and then you can have daily conversations with me."
Xiangcheng started praising him again: "You really are the one who has no weaknesses except chemistry!"
"Hmm...thank you for the compliment. So, Xiangcheng, are you a person with no flaws except physics?"
"I do," Xiangcheng rolled his eyes a few times, "but I still have many shortcomings!"
"Yeah?"
The disadvantage is - always treat him as a good friend.
But Xiangcheng seemed to remember something and became serious: "Yukimura, I have a question."
Yukimura became nervous: "What's wrong?"
"Where would you say Louis XVI... be safest?"
Yukimura began to think about the chapter in French history about Louis XVI, and then heard Xiangcheng answer herself: "Of course it's the highway!"
"Why?"
"Because you are not allowed to turn around on the highway!" Xiangcheng said and burst into laughter.
Yukimura helplessly raised the corners of his mouth: "Okay, okay, you really like this kind of hell joke."
"Also, if Louis XVI had driven to the execution ground using a GPS, what would his navigation system have said?"
Yukimura remained silent, but Xiangcheng couldn't help but give the answer.
