"Alas!" Chiba Hideji sighed and said, "I don't know what to do."
Jiang Nian saw the bench in front and quickly walked over. After sitting down, he said, "Would you like to sit here for a while?"
"You're already sitting down." Chiba Hideji said with a smile.
"If Yu Zi likes someone, will you try every possible means to contact this person in order to help Yu Zi?" Jiang Nian asked.
Chiba Hideji sat down and replied, "No, for things like this, you should work hard on your own."
"I think so too, so I doubt Nana Ohno's true intentions."
After Jiang Nian finished speaking, he looked towards the sunset in the distance.
Chiba Xiuer followed Jiang Nian's line of sight.
As the sun sets, all worries seem to disappear the moment you see the sunset, and all that remains is the residual warmth of the sunset falling on your body.
Jiang Nian sighed inwardly, "It seems to be right in front of me, but it's actually on the horizon. The sunset at home right now might be just as beautiful!"
Jiang Nian couldn't help but whispered, "I miss home."
Chiba Xiuer felt that Jiang Nian seemed to have said something, but he didn't hear it clearly.
So he asked, "Jiang Nian, what did you just say? I didn't hear it clearly."
"Nothing, I just want to say: you have to appreciate the scenery yourself, and you have to pursue the person you like yourself." Jiang Nian replied.
After separating from Chiba Hideji, Jiang Nian walked slowly, carefully looking at every store he passed by. To passers-by, he might seem lost, but in fact, Jiang Nian was looking for traces of his hometown.
When Jiang Nian saw the "Lanzhou Ramen" store, she felt a surge of longing in her heart, and tears had already filled her eyes.
When Jiang Nian was hesitating whether to go in, he was knocked down by a running person.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I was in a hurry to queue up to buy cake and I bumped into you." The man said as he helped Jiang Nian up.
Fortunately, Jiang Nian was not seriously injured, just a scratch on his hand.
"It's okay." Jiang Nian said after he stood up and recovered.
At this time, an older sister came over and said, "Eiji, are you okay? I saw you knocked the kid down from a distance."
Kikumaru Eiji scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Sister, don't blame me. Please help her take care of the wound."
Jiang Nian waved his hands after hearing this, "I'm fine."
Kikumaru Eiji's sister, Kikumaru Eriko, skillfully took out a small first aid kit from her bag and said, "Your hands are scratched, how can you be okay?"
While treating Jiang Nian's wound, Kikumaru Eriko said, "Eiji gets injured often, and now I'm able to handle these injuries skillfully."
After treating the wound, Jiang Nian thanked Kikumaru Eriko.
"I'm sorry." Kikumaru Eiji apologized again and bowed to Jiang Nian.
"It's really okay."
Jiang Nian thought for a few seconds and then jokingly said, "Aren't you going to buy cakes? Hurry up, or they'll be sold out."
"I want to go too, but I still feel sorry." Kikumaru Eiji said timidly.
Jiang Nian smiled and said, "It's okay. If you really feel sorry, you can treat me to Lanzhou ramen."
"But, but I still have to queue!"
"Then go ahead. Can my sister treat me to a meal?"
"Of course." Kikumaru Eiji and Kikumaru Eiriko said one after another.
…
Jiang Nian ate the noodles slowly, savoring the taste of home.
When Jiang Nian had eaten half a bowl of noodles, he could no longer bear it and asked, "Sister, why are you looking at me and smiling?"
"Do you have a younger brother?" Kikumaru Yuriko asked instead of answering.
"No."
"You might not understand, but when I see a pretty girl, I always feel like she'll be Eiji's future girlfriend."
Jiang Nian frowned for a moment, and sighed that most sisters in the world are really good at imagining things. He also sighed that this sister did not wish her brother well, but just hoped that her brother would fall in love early.
"do you have a boyfriend?"
After hearing this question, Jiang Nian suddenly felt that the noodles in the bowl were no longer fragrant, and the greetings from his aunts and uncles during the Chinese New Year suddenly appeared in his mind.
Jiang Nian shook his head and said quickly, "I'm only 11 and a half years old, how can I have a boyfriend?"
"That's such a shame." Kikuwan Yuriko said with regret, "Actually, you could just start by being friends."
Jiang Nian quickly finished his noodles and said goodbye to Kikuwan Yuriko. He had eaten the food he wanted and met interesting people. It must have been a meaningful day.
When he was almost at the door of his home, Jiang Nian looked at the damaged Band-Aid and smiled, as if he felt the warmth from a stranger in this world, and his heart was also warm.
Jiang Nian smiled and looked up at the sky, feeling the gentle summer evening breeze, when a voice came to his ears.
"Are you pretending not to see me?"
Jiang Nian then looked in the direction where the voice came from. The person turned out to be Ohno Nana's boss - Watanabe Haruna.
