Chapter 58 Chapter 58 (Part 2) Apart from loving you, I have no...
Xiangcheng also paid attention to observe Xiaoxia's condition. Although she didn't understand and looked confused, she was still sitting upright, her big eyes looking at the words on the small blackboard curiously.
Xiangcheng pursed her lips for fear of laughing.
Maybe Yukimura was this cute when he was a child, with big eyes, holding a tennis racket, and shouting in a baby voice: "I want to be a professional tennis player!"
Just by imagining it, Xiangcheng can sketch out what he looks like.
After class, Xiangcheng and Xiaoxia said goodbye to Ms. Elaine. She held Xiaoxia's hand and set off on the way home.
"Sister Xiangcheng, what do you think of my brother?" Xiao Xia asked, unable to hide her curiosity.
Xiangcheng gazed at the path lined with sycamore trees and replied, "He's a good guy... well, he has a determined goal and keeps working towards it. He's also a good person and very good at solving problems."
Xiao Xia was a little disappointed: "Is that so... Is there anything that is very, very special to Xiangcheng sister?"
Orange was momentarily absent-minded.
A very, very special place?
"Get used to it." Xiangcheng suddenly smiled.
"Ah?" Xiao Xia didn't understand. Xiang Cheng shook her hand and said, "Walk carefully, Xiao Xia~"
It's like I'm used to walking on this road, under the shade of the sycamore trees, listening to the rustling sound of the leaves.
Just like the tonkotsu ramen she eats four or five times a week, the same Set A every time.
It was like the blueberry cake that came to her mind without even thinking. She tried to choose other flavors, but the end result was almost the same as not having any cake at all today.
Instead, I miss the flavor of blueberry cake, the fresh soup of tonkotsu ramen, and this Wutong Road.
Holding Xiaoxia's hand, I also missed Yukimura.
That was a completely different emotion from when I thought of Xiao Hei and Grinding.
"It's a bit far, can I hold you?" Xiangcheng squatted down and asked Xiaoxia.
Xiao Xia tilted her head and thought for a moment: "Will Sister Xiangcheng be tired?"
"No," Xiangcheng shook her head. "I play volleyball, my arms are full of strength!"
"Okay then," Xiao Xia threw herself into Xiangcheng's arms. Today's itinerary was indeed a bit too much for a child.
What's more, while Xiangcheng was in a daze, he took a detour to this road.
Xiangcheng carefully lifted her buttocks, pressed the edge of her skirt, and let Xiaoxia lie in her arms in a comfortable position.
"Xiao Xia, if you're tired, you can take a nap. I remember your house should be the last one on the next block, right?"
Xiao Xia nodded and couldn't help yawning.
Xiangcheng smiled and patted her back with one hand: "It's okay, go to sleep, you'll be home when you wake up."
"Sister Xiangcheng really tastes like orange!" Xiao Xia muttered this and closed her eyes. After a while, her breathing became long.
Her small breath sprayed on Xiangcheng's neck. Xiangcheng felt itchy at the same time. When she lowered her head and saw Xiaoxiayuan's purple hair, she couldn't help but touch it.
It feels really good.
Will Daiyukimura's hair also feel like this?
After walking as steadily as possible for more than ten minutes, she finally arrived at the door of the house marked "Xingcun".
Looking inside from the fence of the courtyard gate, Yukimura's house is really big and beautiful. Outside the sidewalk leading to the house from the gate is a neatly maintained and well-organized garden.
Xiangcheng rang the doorbell, and within a few seconds, a gentle female voice came through the receiver: "Please wait a moment!"
Not long after, a black-haired woman appeared at the door of the house. She was wearing a neat shirt and a tight skirt. When she got closer, Xiangcheng was very sure that she, Yukimura and Koharu used the same modeling face code.
But... Yukimura's face might be a little tougher.
As she opened the door, Xiang Cheng carefully embraced Xiao Xia and greeted her: "Hello, Auntie, I am Yukimura... a classmate from Seiichi, my name is Yukihara Xiang Cheng."
Yukimura's mother smiled a smile that was particularly familiar to Xiangcheng: "Hello, Jieyuan, I'm the mother of Seiichi and Koharu. You can just call me Aunt Mingli. Thank you so much for today... Koharu is a little heavy, right? Let me hold her?"
Xiangcheng whispered, "It's okay, Aunt Mingli!" After Yukimura Mingli took Xiaoxia, Xiangcheng took a step back to say goodbye, but was rejected by Yukimura Mingli.
"How can that be possible? Yuihara...ah, this is too unfamiliar. Can I call you Xiangcheng?"
Xiangcheng couldn't help but nod and agree at her smile: "Of course, Aunt Mingli."
Yukimura Akari smiled and said, "Xiao Xia went out with Sasuke from the Sanada family today. I thought it would be good for some exercise, but she accidentally got lost... It's all thanks to you, so no matter what, please come to our house for a simple meal, okay?"
Xiangcheng was about to refuse, but Yukimura Akari looked pleading, "Please, Xiangcheng, don't be so quick to refuse, okay?"
Xiangcheng swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue and finally nodded in agreement.
Yukimura Akari's smile returned to its gentle state as he ushered Xiangcheng in. "Look, this is the garden that Jingshi and grandma have been tidying up in their free time. Ah... there's also a sunroom in the backyard. Jingshi likes to stay in there when he's painting or something. When Xiaoxia wakes up, ask her to show you around."
Xiangcheng swallowed back her refusal words at Aunt Mingli's smile.
After entering the entrance hall and changing into slippers, Xiangcheng first saw the family portrait on the wall in front of her.
Xiaoxia was probably only one or two years old, and Yukimura was also very small, standing next to his grandmother with a cute smile on his face.
Aunt Mingli noticed Xiangcheng's gaze and introduced her to him, "This was taken before Jingshi got sick. He seems to have grown up so quickly since then."
In fact, Xiangcheng had never had any real feeling about Yukimura's illness. She only knew that it was probably very serious. However, since she met him, Yukimura's healthy appearance made her never imagine that just a year ago, he was lying in bed in pain.
She looked carefully at the cute Yukimura in the photo again. At that time, there was still a childlike innocence in the depths of his eyes.
Xiangcheng thought to herself, it turns out that some people really regret not getting to know each other earlier.
A little further in, we arrived at the Yukimura family’s dining room, where an old man was setting the table.
Xiangcheng immediately bowed and greeted: "Hello, grandma!"
The old man put down his bowl and chopsticks and walked over quickly: "Oh, is this the child who brought Xiao Xia here? Thank you so much!"
Xiangcheng said it was nothing - Grandma Yukimura gave her the feeling of a grandmother.
Just as Aunt Mingli was about to send Xiaoxia upstairs, the little girl woke up yawning, "Sister Xiangcheng..."
The other three people all laughed. Aunt Mingli rubbed her forehead and said, "Little fool, look carefully to see where Sister Xiangcheng is."
"Mom!" Xiao Xia hugged her mother excitedly, and seemed to be completely relieved.
Then she looked up and saw that she had already arrived home, and Sister Xiangcheng was still standing not far away.
She got down from her mother's arms: "Thank you, Sister Xiangcheng!"
"You're welcome!"
While eating, Xiaoxia was always trying to pick up food for Xiangcheng - although she didn't succeed many times, Xiangcheng still moved her bowl closer to make it easier for Xiaoxia.
Grandma Yukimura and Aunt Mingli couldn't bear to watch and kept shaking their heads. Finally, Grandma Yukimura simply did it herself, and Xiangcheng quickly stood up to say that it was not necessary.
Mingli pulled her to sit down and said, "Don't be so polite, Xiangcheng. Grandma is worried that Xiaoxia will disturb your meal."
"No, no," Xiangcheng bowed, "Xiao Xia didn't make any trouble... I think my sister is really cute!"
"Does Xiangcheng have any brothers or sisters?"
Xiangcheng shook her head: "No, my parents were always busy with work, so they only had me."
"Then...you must be reluctant to let Xiangcheng go far away, right?"
"Well," Xiangcheng thought for a moment, "If I go out, as long as they make sure I'm safe, it won't be a big deal."
Mingli smiled and said, "Is that so?"
Grandma Yukimura piled plate after plate of food in front of Xiangcheng: "Good boy, eat more."
"Oh, okay, thanks grandma!"
After finishing the meal, the two adults refused Xiangcheng's request to clean up the dishes and called Xiaoxia over: "Go and accompany Sister Xiangcheng around our house!"
Xiaoxia happily accepted the order and pulled Xiangcheng towards Yukimura's "secret base".
When you push open the door of the sunroom, what comes into view is an easel and various models, as well as some paintings neatly stacked on the shelves. Walking further in, there is a clean gardening table.
Xiangcheng stepped in carefully, ignoring the excitement in her heart of prying into other people's secrets.
Xiao Xiashen asked mysteriously, "Sister Xiangcheng, would you like to admire my brother's painting?"
"May I?"
"If it's you, it will definitely be okay!" Xiao Xia assured, patting his chest.
Xiangcheng followed Xiaoxia's instructions and took down the stack of works from the high shelf.
The first picture was a pot of Endless Summer hydrangea, which Xiangcheng placed next to it. When she came back to look at the second picture, her shocked look made Xiaoxia even more proud.
That was... the photo she had taken some time ago on her phone.
She didn't want to send it to him, but he drew it anyway.
Her hand couldn't help but touch Yukimura's eyes in the painting, but she quickly withdrew it.
One by one...
It wasn't until the last few pictures that content that had nothing to do with her appeared.
The tranquil sea, or the roses climbing up the rooftops...
Until the last picture, she actually found her own back again.
Familiar ocean, familiar reefs.
It was the day she was banned from the competition. She was hiding on the rocks and heard someone calling and reminding her from behind. When she turned around, there was indeed only a young man drawing there.
It turns out... they had met each other so long ago.
"Sister Xiangcheng, you're looking so closely, are you looking for the signature? My brother's signature is all on the back..."
Xiang Cheng turned over the painting with both hands, August 4th.
It was that day.
After returning home, Xiangcheng suddenly thought of something. She flipped over the painting on the bedside, carefully moved the framed items aside, and removed the backing.
There is indeed a sentence at the center behind the painting.
"To Yuihara Yuzuki:
Je n'ai envie que de t'aimer.
Yukimura Seiichi”
I have no other desire than to love you.
There was never a second when she was so eager to see Yukimura Seiichi.
