279. Family trips 12(1/2)
"I haven't played like this for a long time." Mrs. Qingye sat in the passenger seat, enjoying the wind blowing in from the window.
"The main thing is that you choose the location well." Toru Watanabe said.
"I remember clearly what you said yesterday that I might not be able to make money. It's useless to say nice things now." Mrs. Qingye said vindictively.
“I said ‘I haven’t made any money yet’, so how did it change to ‘I can’t make any money’?”
"Watanabe-kun," Mrs. Kujo turned on the right turn signal, "Don't reason with women, just admit your mistake."
"It was my fault that I forgot such a big truth."
"I learned pretty quickly," Kujo Miki said with a smile.
"After all, I am number one in the country. By the way, Kujo mother, just drop me off at Yotsuya Station."
"I'm getting off at Yotsuya too." Kiyono Rin followed.
"good."
Arriving at Yotsuya Station, Mrs. Kujo looked for a place to park her car.
"Goodbye." Toru Watanabe waved to the three of them, "Miki, see you at school tomorrow."
Kujo Miki nodded slightly.
"Watanabe-kun," Mrs. Kujo said as she started the car, "we will go out to play again after you have your summer vacation."
"Does it include room and board? If not, I will start working part-time to save money from now on."
"Absolutely." Mrs. Kujo responded with a smile.
"That's good."
"How about a beach villa during the summer vacation? It can be done at home or abroad." Mrs. Qingye suggested.
"Forget it abroad, let's go to China." Mrs. Kujo said, "If you don't want to go to the beach, you can go to the Karuizawa Mountains to escape the summer heat."
"Beep-beep-" the car behind honked the horn.
"Watanabe-kun, help me look at the license plate of the car behind me," Mrs. Kujo said with a smile.
"Whether we go to the beach or Karuizawa, we can discuss it later during the summer vacation." After saying that, Toru Watanabe took a few steps back and waved his hand.
Mrs. Kujo glanced at Toru Watanabe unhappily, her eyes charming and alluring.
She stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
Watanabe Toru watched them go away, then turned back to Kiyono Rin and said:
"Did she tell me that I must abide by the law on the day I went there?"
"Yes." As he said this, Qingye Rin couldn't help but let out a small yawn.
On the first night, she was not used to a strange place;
On the second night, it was already twelve o'clock when everyone dispersed. When waiting for one o'clock, she was still at the lake discussing 'what is life' with Toru Watanabe.
"Go back and have a good rest. I won't send you any more roses." After a slight pause, Toru Watanabe added, "I won't send you any more roses."
From today on, sending flowers, reading personal diaries, hugging each other on the tram, going back to my hometown together, making eye contact... all of this has become the past and can never be done again.
No matter how close they are, the two of them are just friends.
Toru Watanabe and Rin Kiyono are friends forever.
As I thought about it, the sadness began to spread again.
With the noisy crowds around, the surging traffic passing by, and the flashing traffic lights not far away, Toru Watanabe felt like he was in the ruins of a city without a single person despite being in the crowded Tokyo.
"I'm leaving." Toru Watanabe said before falling into uncontrollable sadness.
"Watanabe-san."
"Is there anything else, Kiyono-san?"
"I can see through a person's lies. I never care about what a person says or does. I only see the truest thoughts in a person's heart. There is no difference in my opinion whether you actually send me a gift or not, because you
The real idea is to send it to me."
"...Didn't you say that you want me to be myself? If you say this, can I still do it?"
"Yes." Qingye Rin said with a smile, "But if I can't insist on 'being myself', how can I ask others."
"That's true, I heard you say something similar."
Watanabe Toru remembered a long time ago - actually only a year ago.
The two of them helped Koizumi Aina tutor students. When they were having a barbecue in the evening, Koizumi Aona advised Qingye Rin not to be strict with her friends and "not allowed to lie." At that time, she said, "If you don't lie, you are qualified to ask others like this."
"Besides not lying, what kind of yourself do you want to be?" Toru Watanabe asked.
"Just like what I have always done, pursue what you want and let the people who love love love each other."
"Come to think of it, I actually have something I've always wanted to do." He changed the subject.
"What?"
"Let you and Meiji be friends again."
Qingye Rin was stunned for a moment, then smiled helplessly: "Are you concerned about her or me?"
"I care about you two." Toru Watanabe said, "I won't be as deliberate as your mother. I don't like forcing others."
"You just like to put something on the trap that others need, so that people are willing to fall for your trap."
"Tell the other party your purpose clearly and don't force the other party - such a gentle thing, why did it turn into a conspiracy like this for you, Kiyono-kun?"
"I never lie."
"Did I lie?"
"Ask yourself."
Watanabe Toru sighed: "I don't know if I have any conspiracy, but you are really eloquent."
"This is a sign that I am smarter than you. You don't have to be too disappointed. After all, intelligence is mainly innate."
"What about exercising the day after tomorrow?"
"Including the training the day after tomorrow, you are even worse than me." Qingye Rin.
"Just say whatever you say, I have nothing to say."
"Are you feeling better?" Qingye Rin said with a soft smile.
"..." Toru Watanabe really had nothing to say this time.
"You want to go back and tell Asuka Mai and Koizumi Aina the good news? With an expression of losing hope in life, thinking about other women, they will not be happy either. Didn't you hide it well yesterday during the day?"
"Is this one of the ways to make me fall in love?"
"Didn't you fall in love with me a long time ago?"
"Is that one of the ways to snatch me away from them?"
"Part of it."
"Part of it?" Toru Watanabe asked, "Do you care about Mai-senpai and Mr. Koizumi?"
"What I care about is you." Qingye Rin said, "Stand there honestly, don't be sad, don't feel guilty, and wait for me to pass."
"..."
"No need to be grateful. It is God's duty to save her believers."
"You..." Watanabe Toru opened his mouth to say something.
Rin Qingye waited quietly for a while, but Toru Watanabe finally said nothing.
She put her hand on her chin and muttered each word, as if deciphering a code:
"'Why do you have to be so perfect? If there is a little flaw, I can catch it, magnify it, and give myself a reason to just be friends' - what do you want to say?"
Watanabe Toru once again felt the extremely clear and crystal love between the two.
"Goodbye," he said.
"See you tomorrow." Qingye Rin responded with a smile.
Watanabe Toru turned around and walked into the station, taking the "Sobu Line" back to Shinanomachi.
The tram swayed, and it was still a good day with clear skies today. Under the sunlight, the shadow of the car window was cast on my feet.
Watanabe Toru looked at the scenery outside the window.
In a four- or five-story apartment, there were people drying quilts on the balcony and watering potted plants. He looked at these and thought about what had just happened.
He had joked many times that Rin Kiyono was a god, but when he heard her say, "Stand there honestly, don't be sad, don't feel guilty, wait for me to pass," he really felt how charming she was.
Finally, he decided not to think about it anymore.
Thinking about it further, no matter how determined he is, he cannot remain indifferent to an almost perfect beautiful girl like Rin Kiyono.
Maybe it has nothing to do with determination. As long as you are a human being, you have the instinct to fall in love with her.
He opened the system and clicked on the "May Gift Pack".
