Chapter 154, Holidays are coming
.
Time: The end of June, the beginning of July, June 6st.
Location: The bedroom of the Utsunomiya Shuo apartment.
Saturday is a holiday.
It was still dark, and the soft starlight shone through the large window, caressing the white bedding and gently touching Utsunomiya Shuo's cheek.
From time to time, there was a rustling sound in my ears.
He opened his eyes.
"You can sleep a little longer," Ling Zheng buried his body, folded his clothes neatly one by one and put them in the closet.
So sharp that it seems like it has eyes on its back.
"When I opened my eyes, I saw a hazy ceiling. Utsunomiya Shuo traveled through time and space, from yesterday to today." Utsunomiya Shuo's voice was devoid of emotion.
Simply put, it means waking up.
I looked at the time on my phone and it was not yet five o'clock.
4:36 pm.
too early.
Utsunomiya Shuo leaned on the edge of the bed, propped up his head and looked at the blonde loli who was tidying up her closet as if she was "sewing her clothes tightly before leaving, fearing that she would return late", and did not answer immediately.
The skirt of the three-no girl swayed gently and hung at her feet.
"It's just a routine trip home. It's no different from usual. There's no need to go so early." Zhuo said.
Without even turning back, Ling tiptoed to push the folded clothes to the top shelf of the closet.
"Of course there is no difference. I am a guest. You can continue to sleep. I will call you when the meal is ready."
"Do you feel sorry for me?"
Zhuo was leaning against the head of the bed, a little unclear, and asked casually with a smile.
Zero turned around and looked at him, nodding without hesitation.
Zhuo woke up all of a sudden.
And I wanted to slap myself.
Reason is the cage that controls the beast of desire. After working so hard for so long, I still have to commit such a humiliating act.
I sighed quietly in my heart.
……
From Zero's perspective, after seeing her frank admission, Utsunomiya Shuo's eyes immediately brightened up, but he quickly shook his head.
"Forget it. Since you're already awake, don't go to sleep. Just wait until you get home and continue sleeping. It doesn't matter anyway."
“……”Zero blinked silently and nodded.
Then continue to organize your clothes.
Zhuo slowly got up from the bed, sat on the edge of the bed, and watched her busy back.
Watching Zero stuff a certain piece of clothing into his suitcase, then frowning as he took it out and put it in the closet.
Suddenly I remembered that at this time last year, Ling said that I didn't need to bring the clothes back, and she could help... I didn't expect that after a year, all of this would become a reality.
As he thought about it, Zhuo suddenly laughed.
“I feel like a mama’s boy.”
After hearing what he said, Ling turned around and gave him a blank look. "I've never seen such a petty-minded mama's boy who likes to make decisions for his mother all day. You must say that... Mama's boy, can you help me take back the clothes on the balcony? These clothes are too plain, not good..."
Zhuo supported himself with his hands on both sides, shaking his body: "Just bring a few clothes that can be worn, I don't care about those things."
Hearing this, Ling sighed softly, "It's because you don't care about these things that I have to do these. I promised Sa Chiko, go quickly."
"..." Zhuo paused.
That tone is so strange.
Like coaxing a child.
……
At five o'clock, Utsunomiya Shuo and Ling had finished their breakfast and were ready to go out early to catch the first Shinkansen.
During the summer holidays, the trains can be very crowded and it is essential to leave early.
As early as yesterday when school was over, at the gate of the central university, Zhuo saw many students discussing their summer vacation plans... Before leaving school, they walked together in groups, greeted their classmates, and made appointments to meet during the summer vacation.
Some made appointments to go to the beach, some made appointments to play video games at other people's homes, and some were looking at their phones, preparing to discuss with the store manager about the precautions for working with classmates during the summer vacation.
At that time, Zhuo was walking alone on the road.
Zero followed from a distance, like a pervert.
On the way, he heard more than once that someone behind him called Ling and invited her to go somewhere during the summer vacation...
He did not stop at that time, but just looked up to see the wind blowing through the branches of the sycamore tree, creating dazzling sunlight on the ground.
The cicadas' chirping sounds are endless.
This experience is amazing.
You know in your heart that the girl who keeps ignoring other people's invitations has already made common plans with you, and you are not worried at all that she will agree to other people's sudden requests...but this girl does not belong to you.
……
Time returns to the present.
After dinner, Utsunomiya Shuo held his chin, looked at the poplar trees outside the window, and opened his mouth slightly.
Zero was mixing a watermelon salad on the low table.
Her long eyelashes fluttered gently, and there was a trace of fatigue in her azure eyes. It seemed that he was not the only one who did not sleep well last night. No wonder, he was woken up by Zero, so Zero got up earlier than him.
She picked up the fork and tasted it.
Then, a transparent glass plate was pushed in front of him, containing a red and white watermelon salad.
Zhuo took a look and also forked a piece of watermelon and put it in his mouth. It was very cool and sweet. The watermelon was chilled and the taste was just right.
The sleepiness has subsided a lot.
"Why do you have to wear a skirt?" Zhuo picked up another piece of watermelon, put it in his mouth, and asked casually.
"No reason." Zero said lightly.
"Aren't you afraid of the perverts on the train?"
Needless to say, the car must be very crowded.
"Not afraid."
"Then why is the skirt so long? You can't see anything."
Her Royal Highness narrowed her eyes, took out the fork stuck in the watermelon salad and shook it, as if she wanted to hit him on the head. After thinking for a while, she put it down and said, "What on earth are you thinking about all day long?"
"No short skirt?"
"..." Ling gently kicked Utsunomiya Shu under the table, "Stop talking."
"Mine." Zhuo nodded and admitted his mistake.
I'm starting to have some random thoughts again.
"What happened recently?" Ling tapped the glass plate full of salad with his fork, making a crisp clinking sound. "You look tired."
He put his eyes on the watermelon, picked up a piece of it and put it in front of his eyes. After carefully examining it, he gently put it down, looked up at her and said, "I want to drink Coke."
Zero was silent for a moment, then put down his fork, stood up and walked into the kitchen.
After a while, she came back with a can of ice cola, and gently placed it in front of Utsunomiya Shuo, and opened the pull ring with one hand. Her movements were smooth and seamless, very natural and handsome... No wonder so many girls like her.
With a bang, the gas escaped and she pushed the ice cola in front of Utsunomiya Shuo.
There are water droplets all around the can.
Utsunomiya Shuo took a look, then looked up at Ling.
"You don't have to answer." Zero's tone was as calm as usual.
Utsunomiya Zhuo thought about it, nodded, and said, "A suitcase."
"I remember," Ling said, wiping the water droplets off the iced cola with a tissue, "childish."
Utsunomiya Zhuo took the Coke, took a sip and stood up, then said, "This time you sit on top and I push you, so you are childish."
Seeing that he didn't want to eat anymore, Ling stood up and started to clean up the watermelon salad: "Childish."
……
The sky is misty.
The silver-gray sports car started on the road.
The city in the morning seems to be just going to sleep. The street lights have been turned off, and the indoor and outdoor lights of the buildings are colorful, exuding the unique charm of the transition between day and night.
The silver-gray sports car was like a swordfish, swimming leisurely in the water.
Then we arrived at the station.
They both got out of the car with only one suitcase, on which both their luggages were placed.
Zhuo, contrary to his usual behavior, was very active and proactive in taking the suitcase down and placing it on the ground. Then he patted the handle of the suitcase while looking at Ling eagerly.
Ling closed the car door and turned around to see this scene.
She knew what Zhuo meant, so she stood there without moving, just staring at Utsunomiya Zhuo, silently expressing her rejection with her eyes.
It's a pity it's useless.
Her glaring skills were far from enough to "pierce" the back of Kagura's face.
Then Zhuo's thin lips turned into a へ shape, and he patted the suitcase while looking down at him with obvious resentment, like a naughty child full of resentment.
Look at each other for one second, two seconds, three seconds...
Ling was defeated, sighed heavily again, and walked over as if he had accepted his fate.
Zhuo was standing, Ling was also standing, and they looked at each other through the suitcase.
"Turn around." Zhuo said.
Zero turned over.
"Jump up."
This time, two seconds passed before Ling held onto the hem of her skirt and jumped onto the suitcase... I don't know how many wonderful things she went through in those two seconds. Zhuo didn't think too much about it, and pushed the suitcase, jumping out.
...
...
station.
It's very early.
But no matter what time it is, the station is the most popular during holidays. There are many people who want to take the first train, and there is already a long queue at the waiting area of the high-speed railway.
There are parents and children traveling together, the mother holding the child's hand, the father standing in front, the child leaning on the mother's belly, drowsy; there are also tired office workers, drowsy with coffee; there are also students traveling together, dressed formally, going out to play...
Almost no one was talking, probably because everyone was not in the mood.
Quietly.
"The little flying stick is coming--" A loud thunder attracted everyone's attention.
Even the little girl who was about to fall asleep became much more alert. She leaned her head over her mother's body to see what kind of monster it was.
Then I saw a suitcase speeding towards the elevator.
The suitcase was pushed by a boy with dark circles under his eyes. He kicked his feet wildly, as if he wanted to take off on the spot.
Sitting on the suitcase was a girl with light blonde hair. She sat there delicately and steadily, seemingly unaffected by the bumps in the suitcase. She was very quiet and delicate, like a doll.
But there was no expression.
But it doesn’t matter, many puppets have no expression.
It looks cuter this way.
…This is what the little girl thinks.
Everyone else thought that the girl on the suitcase had no expression on her face because she had lost all hope in life.
Zhuo pushed Ling to the end of the line and stood there, silently waiting for the train to arrive.
In front of him was an uncle with messy hair. He twisted his upper body, looked at Ling, then looked at Zhuo, then turned his head back with a look of regret.
It seems like he is regretting why such a cute girl should play with a fool.
Zhuo didn't take it to heart.
After a while, a queue formed behind him.
in Apple pie order.
While he was daydreaming out of boredom, Zhuo felt someone pulling at his pants.
Looking down, he saw a little girl with pigtails. The little girl pointed at Ling's back and asked, "Uncle, I want to play with this, too~~"
"..." Zhuo compared the heights of the two men and swallowed the word "uncle" with difficulty.
There's no need to argue with children.
"~~Is it okay?" the little girl asked.
Zhuo thought for a moment, glanced at the back of Ling's head, shook his head and said to the little girl, "No, brother is this sister's licker, he only knows how to play with the flying stick with this sister."
After saying this, I saw that the little girl's eyes had begun to turn red.
In this state, he is definitely preparing for a big move—he is about to burst into tears.
Zhuo thought for a moment and added: "You can go find your own dog and ask him to play with you."
Hearing this, the little girl rubbed her chubby face and held back her big move.
Pretty impressive.
Then he walked away and returned to his parents, pulling his mother's clothes and saying something... I guess he was asking what a dog licker is.
Anyway, the mother gave him a reproachful look.
…Time passes silently.
The train came along, and the wind it brought slightly lifted the hem of the princess' skirt and blew her long hair, making it a little messy.
Utsunomiya reached out with one hand and brushed her hair back. The girl sat there motionless until her hair was done. She looked like a real doll.
"Have you considered becoming a hairdresser as your high school major?" Zero asked suddenly.
Utsunomiya Zhuo withdrew his hand, paused, and continued: "Do you want to come down?"
"Very uncomfortable." Zero admitted with a nod.
"Isn't it good to sit down? There are so many people and there may be no seats left." Zhuo asked.
"It's hard and uncomfortable." Ling didn't look back the whole time.
Zhuo seemed to think seriously for a while, then said, "Should we put the box down and sit on it?"
"It'll take up a lot of space," Zero warned.
"Is it not good."
"not good."
The phoenix stops.
Ding dong.
The trams opened.
"Okay then," Zhuo said, "When we get back, you'll push me instead. I want to ride all the way home...including the elevator."
"it is good."
Zero said, then jumped down.
Quite anxious.
The team began to enter the bus in an orderly manner. Because it was the first bus, no one got off and people got on the bus very quickly.
Zhuo followed behind Ling.
Pushing a suitcase.
There were still many empty seats after entering, but it seemed that no one liked sitting with strangers, so when choosing seats, they would keep a distance between them.
The result is that the empty seats are all individual and there are no connected seats.
The journey is quite long and takes several hours.
The two of them tacitly did not sit down, but found a handrail... a seat in the corner... Zero walked in first and stood against the wall of the carriage.
Zhuo followed silently behind, or rather, blocked her outside to help her separate herself from the crowd.
Her Royal Highness has many nicknames, one of which is called the 'Vacuum Queen'.
My mysophobia is very serious.
Don't like contact with other people.
The two of them held the handrails, Ling stood facing inwards and Zhuo stood facing the window.
The tram started, shaking slightly.
Because of his height, Ling's hair floated in the carriage like clouds in the sky.
