In the glittering city, a heavily made-up woman's Victoria's Secret outfit was suddenly lifted by a gust of wind, attracting the attention of commuters on their way home from work.
What followed was a fierce verbal battle.
Some passersby stood there with smiles on their faces, but they just watched quietly without any intention of dissuading them, and occasionally took out their phones to take pictures.
Tokyo is indifferent.
Therefore, more pedestrians choose to hurry along, with no intention of lingering.
Among them are office workers who haven't finished get off work yet, still rushing to the next business meeting in a drunken stupor, just to close another deal and ease the burden of their family's loan.
There are also bartenders whose work-rest schedules are reversed, rushing to work despite physical discomfort, yet still not slacking off in the slightest, all in order to earn a meager salary to supplement their family income.
What about the others?
Others walked at a leisurely pace, smiles playing on their lips, exuding energy and vitality.
They wear cloaks, chase stars, and pursue the moon. They travel on their journeys, unaware of the direction ahead and forgetting the path they came from.
But they still had smiles on their faces and were still full of vigor.
Because they know they are not alone, even if the people around them change and the scenery around them changes again and again.
The path they walked will not be forgotten.
The bright moon hanging high in the night sky will protect them, the twinkling stars will encourage them, and even the gentle breezes and gusts of wind record everything they have been through.
Therefore, this is what Su Qing said:
"I will see it."
Then he gently shook his head:
"No matter how many times I ask the question again, no matter how many times I answer it, the result will be the same, just like now. So, if you still don't believe me, then I'll keep saying it—until you believe me."
"Please don't say that! Please don't say that!"
Suddenly, a strong pulling force came from the cuff of my sleeve; it was Shiina.
"I know that if it were you, you would definitely do your best..."
At this moment, Shiina tightly gripped Su Qing's sleeve, her cheek pressed against his broad chest.
Because of the hot weather, Su Qing's clothes were very thin, so Shiina could feel Su Qing's unique temperature, smell Su Qing's unique scent, and hear Su Qing's strong, reassuring heartbeat.
Then, Shiina suddenly realized that she knew how to describe it.
Like the harbinger of sunshine after a storm.
No, to be more precise, the sun has already shone brightly on this land.
So, it was a pair—
Warm eyes
……
"Cried?"
After handing Shiina a glass of water, Su Qing asked with a smile.
"It's not that easy to cry."
Shiina took the water, thanked him, and whispered.
Su Qing merely glanced at the girl's face, shook his head, and didn't continue the topic. After all, he was only teasing Shiina. Instead, he said:
"Do you remember our agreement before the exam?"
"Of course I remember. I don't think I would do anything as outrageous as forgetting our agreement."
Holy crap, why do I feel like I've been tagged?
But judging from Shiina's expression, it doesn't seem like it. Besides, when has she ever forgotten her promise?
That's pure slander! Be careful, or I'll sue you for defamation!
After calming down the inexplicable guilt in her heart, Su Qing smiled and said:
"That's good. Remember to set aside one day this weekend, and I'll take you out to play."
"If possible, could you tell me where we're going and what we're going to do first? I'd like to prepare in advance."
Shiina is the kind of person who likes to plan ahead, which allows her to achieve her goals more efficiently.
"No, if we're going out to play, just listen to my arrangements. I'll make sure you're happy."
"Really? Then I'll look forward to it a little."
"What do you mean? Does that mean you weren't expecting it at all?"
Su Qing felt hurt. Was he the only one who had been looking forward to this from the very beginning?
"Of course not, it means... I'm even more excited now than before."
Shiina's voice was clearly anxious; it wouldn't be good if Su Qing misunderstood.
"Okay, okay, I understand."
"Really."
When Shiina saw Su Qing's expression, he felt that Su Qing was playing a trick on him again!
But then she quickly remembered something and said:
"Speaking of which, have you decided what reward you want?"
Reward, what reward?
Su Qing was taken aback for a moment, then recalled her memories before the exam and found that there really was such a thing.
"If I remember correctly, I was supposed to come up with the reward myself, right?"
"That's right, so it's okay if you make some unreasonable demands."
"Excessive demands?"
"Yes~"
Shiina narrowed her eyes slightly, unable to suppress the smile in her eyes. Su Qing had repeatedly teased her, and today she kept saying things that were bad for her heartbeat.
Therefore, Su Qing is a bad child!
Bad kids should be punished by the little devils!
"I won't make that kind of request..."
"I meant I could give you a lap pillow or something, but I don't know which kind of 'type' you mean?"
"No, even a lap pillow is too..."
Seeing that Shiina was about to say something even more shocking, Su Qing could only admit defeat and said with a wry smile:
"forgive me."
"Now you know how powerful I am?"
"Of course, Shiina is the best in the world."
"You're using a tone that's like you're coaxing a child again."
"I never lie."
Shiina glanced helplessly at Su Qing and said softly:
"However, using your knees as a pillow is really a good idea."
"Why did you suddenly want to give me a lap pillow?"
"Because a magazine I recently read said that giving boys lap pillows can help them recover their energy..."
"You can't just say that to other people..."
Su Qing felt it necessary to report these unscrupulous magazines for misleading our angels.
"I wouldn't say that to other people..."
"That's good."
Su Qing thought for a moment and then said:
"As for a reward, I'll wait until the day I take you out to play before I get my wish."
Why wait until that day specifically?
Shiina blinked, not quite understanding Su Qing's thoughts.
"You'll find out when the time comes. How about that? Doesn't your anticipation increase a bit?"
"Now that you mention it... it does seem to be true."
After they finished speaking, Shiina and Su Qing suddenly met eyes and then couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Clearly, the two are very happy now.
At that time, the Tokyo night sky was still bright and the stars were few, but the moon and stars were also very happy.
Because the angels they had been protecting for so long finally had someone who valued her speak to her personally:
I will care.
Chapter 98 Come back to life after a long absence
Tuesday, a sunny day.
"Do you need to ask the Service Department for any specific request?"
Su Qingshan, who had just received her speech draft for Friday from Hiratsuka Shizuka, arrived at the Service Department and saw a petite girl lingering at the entrance of the activity room, muttering, "Go in, don't go in, go in, don't go in."
If I'm not mistaken, it should be that the Service Department has finally come to work after a long time, but the other party is hesitant because of the strange name of the Service Department. In addition, the other party is blocking my way, so Su Qing asked.
"Huh, what kind of request?"
Sakurai was originally considering whether to pick a flower from the flowerbed and break off its petals to decide whether or not to join this strange club, but now it seems that he doesn't need to.
"Why are you just wandering around here if you're not going to make a request?"
"Um, anyway, hello! I'm Ayako Sakurai from Class 2-A. I came here because I heard there's a magical club on this floor that grants students' wishes..."
Why is it this kind of talk again? Su Qing immediately thought of Hiratsuka Shizuka, wondering how she was promoting the Service Club.
"There is no club that can grant wishes, but if you need help, there is a club that can meet your needs."
"But... isn't this the Service Club?"
Sakurai unconsciously took a few steps back, and his voice trembled slightly.
Su Qing felt it was best to explain in advance to avoid being questioned repeatedly about the club's name and developing an obsession with it.
"Don't worry, it's like volunteer service. Anyway, let's go in first and talk about it."
Su Qing walked around Sakurai, then knocked on the door, and after receiving a response from the person inside, she pulled the door open.
Then he turned to Sakurai and whispered:
"Welcome to the Service Department. If you need any requests, please come and ask us."
After saying that, Su Qing walked straight in, leaving Sakurai standing there blankly and replying with an "Oh".
"Xiao Qing, over here, over here."
When Yui, who was sitting next to Yukino, saw Su Qing, she first greeted him excitedly, and then began to criticize Su Qing for being late. Of course, compared to Yukino, who was an ice queen, she had no intimidation at all.
Good afternoon, Yukinoshita, Hachiman.
Good afternoon. ×2
After greeting everyone, Su Qing sat down and looked at Yui with a helpless expression:
"Didn't I tell you I needed to go get something from Teacher Xiaojing first?"
"Hey, did you say it?"
"Do you want to think about it again?"
Su Qing looked at Yui with a forced smile, as if she would punish Yui severely if she heard an unsatisfactory answer at any moment.
When Yui saw Su Qing's appearance, she felt a chill run down her spine and realized that something was wrong. She really didn't want to be dragged by Su Qing to do solid geometry and conic sections again!
