Chapter 51 Chapter 51 Staying in Tokyo
"Why, didn't our Rikkai University junior Yukimura, who's so good at everything, come to help you?"
Before the work started, Xiangcheng was completing her voluntary work of watering the garden.
The voice behind her came suddenly. Xiangcheng turned around and saw that it was Nishikawa Kai, whom she hadn't dealt with for a long time.
He wore his school uniform neatly, but his overly long bangs still gave him an evil and gloomy look.
Because he was his former teammate's older brother, Xiangcheng still replied, "Hello, senior." He lowered his head again, carefully preventing the water from the hose from hitting Huatou.
Nishikawa Kai looked at the beautiful garden and said, "I still don't like these flowers."
Xiangcheng became nervous, fearing that he would repeat his past "glorious" history.
Xichuan Jie sneered, "I'm not so bored anymore. But you... after spending so much time with my junior, you've become more compassionate."
Xiangcheng walked to the wall and turned off the valve without answering.
"I hate that look of his the most...don't you think?"
Xiangcheng took a step back. "If we have different opinions, there's no need to force agreement. I don't know why you're upset, but I don't dislike him."
"Tsk," Nishikawa Kai's eyes grew dangerous. "I thought you'd be different, but it turns out you're just like those girls."
Xiangcheng suddenly became angry. "I don't know where your subjective assumptions come from, but please don't use that tone to say how girls should behave... That's none of your business."
"Oh, really?" Nishikawa Kai shrugged. "Isn't it all about looks? If they're pretty, just go for it—"
This world is really not going to get better.
Xiangcheng smiled and replied, "That's right, Yukimura is indeed good-looking. I want to be with him, and all the girls in the school want to be with him. When he shines in the world, there will be a lot of girls who will also want to be with him."
"But you, Nishikawa-senpai, you're so concerned about girls getting close to Yukimura. Are you jealous of Yukimura, or are you jealous of the girls who can get close to him?"
"If it's the latter, you can actually admit it openly. I remember we weren't that rigid here. I think the girls who 'get together' aren't afraid of having more male friends."
"Oh, if you're simply jealous, there's no need to tell me. After all, humans don't need to understand the thoughts of gutter rats."
"Just step on it to death."
"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave... If you want to vent your anger on the garden, don't forget there's a high-definition camera overhead."
Ah, it’s been a long time since I cursed someone so happily. The last time was when I cursed my former coach.
And after cursing, there is a strange sense of relief, which sweeps away the worries and fatigue of the past few days.
Without paying attention to the reactions of the people behind him, Xiangcheng strode to the student union office to report that today's work was over.
He happily opened the door and closed it the next second.
"I'm done with my work, Yagyu—I'm leaving now! Sorry for disturbing you!"
He even forced her to play against the wall at school. He is indeed the man who claimed to have read 3,000 volumes of girls' comics, Yagyu Hiroshi!
After taking a few steps, she came back and cleared her throat: "Rika-san, the club activity starts in ten minutes. This time I'm really leaving!"
The happiness of good friends makes the world a little better.
I don't know how the problem between them was resolved.
Forget it, she should think about her own problems first.
Xiangcheng was torn and gloomy again. On the one hand, she felt that it was thanks to her decision to transfer that she was able to go to such a great place as Rikkai University, but on the other hand, she felt that she could go to Otokoma with Xiaohei and the others.
But then I wouldn't meet my friends from Rikkai University.
It is difficult to make too many assumptions in life. Once you have the most important thing in your heart, everything else will only become regrets.
On the way home from school, she told Yukimura, Niou, and Yanagi the story of this afternoon.
Niou screamed "Ah!" and startled the others.
"Pfft, it feels so cool!"
"Indeed—after all, you don't seem to like expressing your opinions."
Xiang Cheng accepted the compliments from both of them and pinched her chin beautifully: "I think he's super handsome too."
Niou put his arm around Yukimura's shoulder and said, "How's it going, Chief? Are you touched?"
Yukimura nodded, but still expressed his thoughts: "There is a misunderstanding. You never came close to me, Xiangcheng."
Yukimura dodged too quickly, and Niou's arm slipped off. He stumbled a bit and said, "I'm really impressed by you guys who are so obsessed with love."
Xiang Cheng gave a standard smile: "Okay, no more talking."
Then he remembered something: "Yagyu and Rika..."
Ren Wang and Liu approached at the same time: "Did you see it too?"
also?
Yukimura coughed and said, "They were in the afternoon..."
"No way? Could they do a wall-bang so well that everyone could see it?"
"What's the wall-dong thing? We're talking about them arguing!"
"Wait!" Xiangcheng stretched out a hand: "Let's sort out the timeline."
The four of them looked at each other and came to the final conclusion.
"As expected of Yagyu!"
Xiangcheng silently added: "Except for Sanada and Kuwabara, all of you are monsters with eight hundred minds and eight hundred eyes!"
Yukimura suddenly leaned closer: "Why do I feel like, Xiangcheng, you are saying bad things about me in your heart?"
Xiangcheng stood at attention: "No!"
"Is it true that there's no such thing as 'very thoughtful'?"
Xiangcheng gave an embarrassed chuckle.
Liu Herenwang covered his eyes, and the second one was stupid.
Yukimura's eyes turned resentful: "Is this what I look like?"
Xiangcheng actually wanted to say, "Don't you know it yourself?" But the moment she opened her mouth, her urge to survive made her change her words: "No, no... You're a very nice person."
"Nice Guy Card?"
"Well, you are quite honest?" Xiangcheng organized his words carefully.
It seems that no word is very appropriate.
Yukimura put his index finger on Xiangcheng's mouth and said, "Okay, stop talking."
When Xiangcheng got home, she saw her mother's car parked in the parking space, but no one was home. She called but no one answered.
She sat back on the sofa in a daze, and the phone call to her father rang for just enough seconds before being automatically answered.
He probably doesn't have surgery today. Xiangcheng got up and looked at his father's clipboard for a long time.
Both of them didn't answer the phone and weren't at home when they were supposed to go home.
She couldn't help but think of the bad things.
She was dozens of kilometers away, but she was powerless.
At this time, the mobile phone received a message.
[Xiao Hei]: Nothing to do today! Neko's transfer will be available after the midterm exams. Here's what you need to bring...
[Yuhara Kaoru]: Could you please confirm this for me again?
[Xiao Hei]: I just went to Grandpa Chensheng's place. Nothing much, really. How about you give him a call?
[Yuhara Xiangcheng]: That’s good. I won’t fight anymore. Even if I fight, he will only let grandma answer the phone.
Just when she breathed a sigh of relief, Xiangcheng received another call from Mikiko.
"Your father's friend just came back from abroad. He met me at the airport and didn't bring his phone with him. Are you worried?"
Xiangcheng finally felt relieved: "It's okay."
So this is what it feels like to "wait for someone's unknown death." The slightest disturbance around you can be regarded as a paranoia.
She went upstairs and collected all the French materials, eventually placing them in display cases that were rarely opened.
I too have longed for someone.
Fortunately, it was not said out loud.
After touching the cover of the top book, Xiangcheng closed the cabinet.
Then, according to Xiao Hei's message, I prepared some things.
Da Hu climbed onto her shoulders, pressing her down so hard she had to bend down. "Da Hu, your weight loss efforts aren't working at all! I'm going on a hunger strike if this continues!"
Da Hu used his tail to sweep her cheek flatteringly. Xiang Cheng dodged a little: "I doubt your butt has been touched by Xiao Xiao."
Da Hu was so frightened that he unfolded his empty egg and small chrysanthemum. Xiang Cheng took it down with a smile: "Okay, okay, it's clean."
If I go back to Tokyo, I can't take them with me. Xiangcheng lovingly held up Dahu, and the next second -
"Why have your eyes become smaller?"
Da Hu twisted his waist angrily and jumped away.
It took Xiangcheng two nights to sort all these things out.
On Friday, she had planned to take a leave of absence from work and go to Tokyo as soon as school was over. However, when she arrived at the station, her grandmother told her that her grandfather's nephew and others had gone home and she had no place to stay that night.
Xiangcheng had to postpone her trip until tomorrow, and also canceled her French class and the club's practice class.
Ms. Elaine, the French teacher, said with some regret: "Your level is quite good. If you persist, you will have no problem applying to colleges in your senior year of high school."
Xiangcheng apologized: "I'm really sorry."
“Actually, schools in France are really good…”
"I know," Xiangcheng smiled, "I've seen a lot."
Ms. Elaine said nothing more and sent her away in silence.
But then she thought of another student of hers, but unfortunately the call was not connected.
It seemed like nothing was left out. After taking a shower, Xiangcheng lay on the bed and took stock of everything. Now she could spend this month without any distractions.
The sudden ringing of the phone startled her, but the words "Yukimura Seiichi" displayed on the screen made her pick up the phone.
The person opposite was panting, as if he had just finished running: "Xiangcheng, are you home?"
"Yes," Xiangcheng was confused. "What's wrong?"
Yukimura's tone was very strange: "Can you come down for a moment?"
Xiangcheng looked through the window and saw Yukimura standing at the corner.
"Okay...wait a moment."
After quickly changing clothes and going downstairs, Xiangcheng ran over and asked, "What's wrong?"
Yukimura's expression was more solemn than she had ever seen.
"Ms. Elaine said you're not going to class anymore." He stared at Xiangcheng: "Why?"
Xiangcheng, who had finally made up his mind, felt a wave of guilt again.
Silence flowed between the two.
"Are you too tired?" Yukimura took the first step.
Xiangcheng shook her head.
"Or... my schedule is too full. The school has been really strict lately. Is that why I don't have time to play games? In that case—look," Yukimura pulled out Yui Orange's game console from his backpack, "I've already got it back."
"Yukimura, I don't want to go to France anymore," Xiangcheng finally looked up: "I want to stay in Tokyo."
