Chapter 139: A bowl of shrimp noodles
"Just now, that classmate, it seems that she is not from our class? Does Hirosue-san know her?"

In the car, Shirai sat stiffly in the back seat with Hirosue. In order to hide his embarrassment, he took the initiative to talk.

"I know her, Kondo Saki, she used to be my good friend." Hirosue seemed to be recalling something, "If she was a boy, we would have been childhood sweethearts."

"Oh," Shirai wisely didn't ask any more questions. Are they good friends? Judging from their performance just now, their relationship was not very good. That could only be because something happened later.

In silence, we soon arrived at the convenience store where Shirai worked.

"Thank you, Hirosue-san. See you tomorrow then!"

"See you tomorrow."

After getting out of the car, Shirai gestured goodbye to Hirosue in the car until the car started and disappeared around the corner of the street.

Shirai went into the convenience store, greeted the manager, changed his clothes, and started his part-time job for the day.

"Shirai, you seem to be in a good mood?" the store manager asked curiously.

"Hmm? Really?" Shirai was stunned for a moment, but soon came to his senses and smiled brightly, "Maybe, I met a very good friend."

"Hey, youth is great." The store manager sighed like an old man in a TV series, even though he was just a middle-aged man. "I was also a famous handsome boy in my high school."

Shirai pursed her lips, looked at the store manager's belly and greasy face, and nodded vigorously: "Yeah, I can see that!"

"Yeah, yeah!" the store manager laughed.

night.

Shirai received today's salary and took the train back home.

"Little honey~"

After sucking the cat for a while, Shirai felt a lot more energetic and started to make dinner.

Still cooking instant noodles.

"Oh, I forgot to buy eggs." Opening the refrigerator and looking at the empty egg grid, Shirai felt a little discouraged.

"Let's make do with it."

She knows how to lower her expectations appropriately.

After eating instant noodles, he poured the cold cat food to Little Honey, then she turned on her phone and started reading tweets.

"Mom sent me a new one."

【The whole family took advantage of their free time to come to Tinyland, and had a lot of fun! 】

Shirai looked at them carefully one by one, a smile appearing on his face.

"Is Xiao Shengneng already this big?"

Shirai had discovered his mother’s Twitter account by accident before, but he had just been following it quietly.

After making a heart click, she put down her phone and cleared the dishes.

It's time to learn.

Before going to bed, she sent a goodnight message to her mother via LINE as usual.

But I didn’t get a reply today, maybe because I was too tired from playing?

While waiting, Shirai fell asleep in a daze.

There seemed to be a picture around me, with a blurry filter applied.

She knew she was dreaming again.

Scene after scene was slowly reconstructed according to her fragmented memory.

No, I don't want to dream.

"Xingzi, from now on, you should live with your mother and don't see that gambler anymore."

"When are you going to tell Xingzi? My mother is urging me."

"Give me some time, please?"

"You should hurry up. I won't treat her badly financially."

".This is the thing, Xingzi. Can you live well on your own?"

"Mom, it's okay. I can live well on my own. I'm fine."

"Xingzi, I'm sorry. I'll come to see you when I have time."

".Are you alone too?"

"Meow~"

"I'm better than you. Look, this is the honey my mother bought for me. Do you want to try it?"

"You want to come with me?"

"Meow."

"Okay, as long as I'm alive, I'll do my best to support you."

"Shirai."

"Shirai?"

"Um, ah! Yes!" "Answer the question I just asked."

"."

During lunch break, Shirai lay limply on the desk, looking at the chat box on his phone with empty eyes.

"Why is there no reply? Did something happen? Should I call?"

Her mind was a little confused.

The chaos continued until lunch break.

"You didn't bring your lunch?"

Hirosue asked.

Shirai then remembered that he had not prepared a lunch box because he got up late.

"Come with me." Hirosue said.

Shirai followed Hirosue in a daze.

"Eh? Hirosue-san, are you going to take me out?"

Shirai asked hesitantly as he looked at the school gate that was getting closer and closer.

"Ah."

"But can't we go out during lunch break?"

As they were talking, they had already arrived at the school gate. The security guard glanced at Guang Sue Liang Gong, opened his mouth slightly, quickly opened the door, stood aside, stood straight, and said nothing.

Only then did Shirai realize how amazing Hirosue was.

It was even more amazing than she had ever thought.

Guangsue didn't walk far before he found a high-end-looking restaurant on the street next to the school and walked in.

"Hirosu-san!" Shirai mustered up a lot of courage to pull Hirosue's sleeve, "This, this looks really expensive."

Hirosue turned around and took out two coupons from his sleeve.

"Free coupon for one person!"

Shirai cried out in surprise.

She had never expected that such a high-end restaurant would have such a thing.

"I have a lot of these coupons at home. If you don't use them, they will expire. You don't have to worry about the capitalists." Hirosue held Shirai's hand and led her inside.

Shirai lowered his head slightly and followed Hirosue carefully until he sat down.

"What do you want to eat? The coupon is only valid for the single-person set meal here." Hirosue handed the menu to Shirai.

Shirai took a quick look and quickly made a choice.

“Rainbow Prawn Noodles.”

"It looks okay, so I'll have the same as you." After making the decision, Hirosue told the waiter.

Before Shirai could say anything, Hirosue had already ordered.

"Do you like eating shrimps?" Hirosue picked up the tea poured by the waiter and took a sip.

Shirai shook his head: "Actually, it's just that I miss it. When my mother took me out to play, she would order a bowl of shrimp noodles and share half. She would secretly give me all the shrimp."

"She sounds like a good mother." Hirosue said seemingly sincerely.

Shirai's eyes dimmed and he subconsciously touched his phone.

"You seem distracted today. What happened?"

"No, no, it's okay. I'm fine. It's just that this is my first time in such a high-end restaurant, so I'm a little uncomfortable."

Shirai forced a smile and fiddled with the tableware and seasonings in front of him awkwardly.

Soon, two bowls of shrimp noodles were served.

The noodles inside are relatively thick and come in seven colors. The shrimps are big and there are some side dishes.

Shirai took a bite and it was delicious, but she had no appetite.

Hirosue put half of the shrimp on Shirai's bowl: "I can't eat so much."

Shirai looked at her silently for a while, then smiled and said, "Thank you, Hirosue-san. I actually always thought that you were a difficult person to get along with. I'm sorry."

"You're right, I'm indeed difficult to get along with." Guangsue nodded in admission.

"Ah?" Shirai blinked, a little confused, "But you have so many friends at school, and everyone is talking about you."

"Do you really think that those people are my friends?" Guangsue looked at her with a smile on his face. "Money and power are the bond between me and them. Of course, I am not qualified to criticize them. After all, I am also such a person."

"But, in my eyes, Hirosue-san is very sincere." Shirai said courageously.

Hirosue Yoshimiya looked at her in surprise.

"Just take it as a compliment. I accept it. Eat it quickly, or the noodles will get cold."
