Chapter 176: The Responsibility of Being an Older Brother
The cushions were soft and dangerous, and it was dangerous for people to sit on them when they were stacked high, but even so, Fuyumi and Suzuki still didn't give an inch to each other - both of them were quite aggressive in their bones, and they didn't have anything to do with ladies.
Fuyumi glanced back at Kitahara Shuji, and suddenly most of her anger disappeared, as if she suddenly saw the main backbone, and her nose was sour and she felt a little aggrieved in her heart.
She found that she was a little bit too bad for Suzuki Noshi's sick seedling + stinky fart, and she was so abused that she couldn't find the north in half an hour, and this one has a comparison, and then look at the No. 2 stinky fart of Kitahara Shuji suddenly pleasing a lot, at least this is reasonable, and if you say it to yourself, it can be regarded as quite gentle now.
She complained directly: "This guy is looking for trouble again." ”
She can't do it herself, so she can only find the more powerful Kitahara Shuji for help, but this is her own person.
"Let's come down first!" Kitahara Shuji stepped forward and lifted Fuyumi off the mat as soon as he reached out, and then said to Suzuki Noshi, "You come down too, we can't afford to take that responsibility if we fall and hurt ourselves." ”
It is estimated that a normal person will hurt for a while if he falls from this height, but Noki Suzuki is not a normal person, and it is not uncommon for him to fall into a bone crack.
Noki Suzuki stretched out his hand to hug him, and said with a smile: "Xiuji, help me, I'm afraid I'll fall down in a flash." ”
Kitahara Shuji thought about it for a while, and really went over to take her down, and asked calmly, "I thought we had made it clear between us." ”
Is it nature to fight this stubbornly?
Noki Suzuki shook his body back and forth on tiptoe with his hands behind his back, and said with a smile: "I know, you don't want me to come here, but this time I'm here to give a thank you gift, and I can't do it if I don't come." ”
"Thank you?"
Fuyumi flattened her mouth and handed the official document to Kitahara Shuji, and Kitahara Shuji glanced at it, glanced at Suzuki Noki again, and said softly: "I'm not helping you for this, you don't have to do this." ”
If someone he doesn't know is chased and killed by a suspected gangster, he will reach out to save someone nine times out of ten, and it doesn't matter if it's Suzuki or if he has money or not - he doesn't want anything in return.
But Suzuki Noki's eyes lit up, and he said expectantly, "Is that just going according to the ordinary plot?"
Kitahara Shuji shook his head, returned the official document to Fuyumi, and said with a smile: "I can't afford it, then we accepted this thank you gift, thank you, Suzuki-san." ”
Noki Suzuki smiled and said, "A little thing, it didn't take much effort, and Xiuji doesn't have to say thank you." ”
Fuyumi snorted, glanced at Suzuki Noshi, and muttered unhappily, "What are you proud ......of?"
Suzuki Noki also looked at her and said with a smile: "Are you not convinced, dwarf winter melon? I'm just telling the truth, in this world, simple things for fire may not be for water, simple things for fish, but not necessarily for birds, and simple things for me, but difficult for you!"
"Shameless, you still don't rely on the wealth and power of your family!" Fuyumi stood beside Kitahara Shuji, bold again.
Suzuki Noki didn't care at all, and said confidently: "My family is rich and powerful, can't I use it yet? I don't need anyone to use it? Are you? This is the reality, it's very simple for me, but it can't be done for you, what's the use of you not being convinced?"
"You!" Fuyumi was angry, Suzuki Noki was as thick-skinned as a city wall, she was really invulnerable, and she was undisciplined, and she was about to be disgusted to death.
Kitahara Shuji gently patted Fuyumi on the shoulder, signaling her to stop arguing with Suzuki. It's not necessary, and I'm not prepared to deal with it for a long time. He smiled and said, "Suzuki-san, there are some things that everyone understands in their hearts, but they don't sound so good when they say them, and you can't be a bad guest when you come to the door, right? ”
Noki Suzuki nodded repeatedly: "I remember Xiuji's advice, I will be polite to the dwarf winter melon in the future - it's all for your sake, Xiuji." ”
She called her name and surname very affectionately, and she didn't listen to the kind words and persuasions, but this little thing Kitahara Shuji didn't care about anymore, and she couldn't stop it anyway, so let her go, just said: "Suzuki-san, if there is nothing else, isn't it ......?"
He didn't mean it was time to go, but Suzuki said happily, "I don't have anything else to do, I'm so idle, I'm willing to stay for dinner, I really like Shuji's cooking." ”
Fuyumi pulled the hem of Kitahara Shuji's back and asked if it was time to turn her face and throw the sick ghost out of the house - she was embarrassed to turn her face after receiving the favor, but Kitahara Shuji gave an order, so she had no psychological burden.
Kitahara Shuji looked at Suzuki Noki calmly, this is really a piece of kraft candy, you can't get rid of it if you stick to it, but generally others don't mess with him, and he won't yell directly like a grumpy radish head, there will always be three points of leeway, and after thinking about it, he told Dongmei: "Go and prepare, add a few more good dishes." ”
The other party also helped anyway, and it was impossible to say anything about going out of the door directly.
He smiled at Suzuki again: "I didn't make dinner, it's Hauna, the sister of Fukuzawa, coarse tea and light rice, please don't dislike it." ”
"No, no!" Suzuki Noki replied with a smile, and smiled at Fuyumi, who was obviously very unhappy: "Look at Xiuji's bearing, dwarf winter melon, you learn more, this is what it looks like to do big things." Alright, hurry up and set us the meal!"
Fuyumi didn't move, Kitahara Shuji gently pushed her, she glared at Kitahara Shuji and finally turned around and went out, and Suzuki Noki saw her go and asked with a smile: "Xiuji, she listens to you, and you are very protective of her, why is this?"
"She has a bad temper, is cautious, does not lose, and loves to make trouble, and sometimes likes to be unreasonable, but she has a good heart. Kitahara replied with a smile. This radish head is now unanimously engaged in a united front with the outside world, so he is barely obedient, and when there is no foreign enemy, this guy is thinking about engaging in some internal fighting or something, but most of them are looking for trouble in small things, and the bad guys are not counted.
As he spoke, Kitahara Shuji stretched out his hand and motioned for Suzuki Noki to take a seat, and he sat opposite each other, as if he was formally entertaining, and Suzuki Noki sat down with a smile, but Kitahara Shuji's sense of alienation was also felt - he was not treating a friend, he was just treating a guest who came to visit unexpectedly, and he helped the Fukuzawa family, so he was entertaining himself according to etiquette, but he didn't want to deepen the friendship between the two sides.
And he is still faintly accusing himself of being impure and bad-hearted, maybe the impression left on him when they met for the second and third time was too bad, maybe he shouldn't have been so strong at the beginning, and he shouldn't have been fooled and lied to him......
Anyway, when we met for the first time five months ago, he also disguised himself well enough, and even deceived himself, which deceived each other, shouldn't it be a big deal?
Why is it not the same attitude to treat dwarf winter melon as to yourself, no matter which angle you look at, you should be a hundred times stronger than dwarf winter melon, right?
Suzuki Noshi's mind turned, and he smiled at Kitahara Shuji and asked, "Xiuji, have you thought about how to deal with that whistleblower? You robbed him of his business, he shouldn't give up, do you want me to help you?"
"No need, we'll take care of it. ”
Noki Suzuki asked with interest, "What are you going to do?"
"It's not right for people, if he finds trouble with this store for the sake of duty and performance, we will find trouble with him. ”
Suzuki Noki understood, Kitahara Shuji was going to disgust the whistleblower, that is, the store manager opposite Yongshou Sanfuku, and report him if he was not clean, or even report to the company he worked for, such as embezzlement, eating some kickbacks or something, or simply covering his face and taking someone to beat him brainlessly - don't say anything after the fight, the other party naturally knows in his heart, and next time he puts a cold arrow, he has to think about whether he will be beaten again, and even whether the other party will escalate his revenge, and the stick will be replaced by a knife.
She smiled: "It's so hard, I have a better way, do you want to listen?
Kitahara Shuji shook his head and smiled: "No, it's our business, but I don't really understand why Suzuki-san, you have to get involved, we haven't known each other for a few days, and it's impossible to talk about friendship...... Don't say you like something, it's not that easy to like someone, I don't believe it, I want to hear the truth. ”
Noki Suzuki looked at Kitahara Shuiji's expression very seriously, and smiled: "Then tell the truth...... I'm very lonely, I used to have my grandmother with me, but now it's gone, and I can't even find someone who can talk to my heart, so I want to come out and have fun, maybe I can fall in love, or I can find a marriage partner, or I can make a few friends, or I can find something interesting to pass the time, and Xiuji is the first interesting person I met. ”
"What do you mean...... Am I unlucky?" Kitahara Shuji did seem to be sincere when he heard this, but he still didn't dare to believe it all, mainly because Suzuki Noki had a criminal record, and he couldn't say that everything was false, but there were not many true.
"It's lucky, it's a chance to climb to the sky, you have to seize it, Hideji!" Suzuki smiled and cheered him up.
Kitahara Shuji is not interested, if a person is down-to-earth, step by step, overcoming snow and ice, low temperature and lack of oxygen to climb Mount Everest, this is of course a feat, anyone has to say that it is really a real warrior, and my sense of accomplishment is also full of ten, but what is the meaning of taking a helicopter or being carried up?
That's what anyone can do.
Maybe I befriended Suzuki Noshi, maybe I could really fight for a few decades, but after all, what I got by attaching to people is very illusory, just a castle in the air, and one day Suzuki Noki gets tired of it and leaves, then everything will return to illusory, maybe it will fall from a high place suddenly, and it is possible to fall to death directly.
After all, people still have to rely on themselves, and it is okay to borrow strength, but the basic condition for borrowing strength is that they are already strong and powerful.
He retorted directly: "No, it's bad luck." ”
Noki Suzuki's eyes immediately turned red, and he asked softly, "Am I just making you hate like that, Shuji......?"
"Don't pretend, Suzuki-san, your tears are not worth believing...... I don't believe you're going to cry. ”
If this girl is a weak character, her grandmother should have collapsed when she died, and she would shed tears for a few words, and she couldn't believe that she killed Kitahara Shuji.
Suzuki Noki wiped her tears and said with a smile: "You are so bad, you are not a gentleman at all, you should coax me." Okay, I'm telling the truth anyway, believe it or not......! Yoko-chan's birthday is coming soon, will there be a party, and will I receive an invitation?"
She had some expectations, but Kitahara Shuji directly refused: "No, it's a private party between friends." ”
"That's right...... It's not a pity, I've figured out what to buy for my birthday. ”
Kitahara Shuji felt that even if he didn't receive the invitation, Suzuki Noki Hachisei would still come to the door by himself, and sighed and said, "Suzuki-san, I don't want to repay the favor, but I really want to say it...... I saved you. ”
"And then?"
"If you still have a little gratitude, please don't bother us again. ”
Suzuki Noki was silent for a while, and said with a smile: "Kitahara-san, it's too hurtful for you to say that...... I've put my posture very low, I also have self-esteem, I just think you're good and want to be friends with you......"
Kitahara Shuji said softly: "Thank you, I'm sorry, I can't allow you to bring trouble to the Fukuzawa family or my sister, I have received help from the Fukuzawa family, and now I am repaying the Fukuzawa family, and my sister herself is very pitiful, I don't want them to have an accident...... I'm really sorry, but please don't come here in the future. ”
After a pause, he said sincerely, "Good luck, Suzuki-san, and I sincerely hope you all the best." ”
Noki Suzuki stared at Kitahara Shuji for a while, lowered his head and was silent for a while, then stood up with a bright smile, took out a business card from his small bag and put it on the table, and said softly: "Actually, I'm quite pitiful, but it's none of your business, right?" I just want to use the rest of the time to live a fun life, but I ended up being cheeky and causing you a lot of trouble, I'm sorry, Kitahara-san...... Thank you for saving me, this is my personal call, if there is anything in the future that requires me to reciprocate, please don't be polite. ”
She left the activity room directly, but when she opened the door, she happened to bump into Dongmei, who was coming over with a rice cooker, and smiled at her, "Dwarf winter melon, you are stupid, but you are so lucky, no one cares about me who is so pitiful." ”
Dongmei was stunned for a moment, and said angrily: "What do you mean, stinky fart!"
Suzuki Noki smiled and didn't answer, and left directly, while Fuyumi looked at her back in confusion and asked Kitahara Shuji strangely: "What's wrong with her, she doesn't eat here anymore? she's so rich, what's pitiful, she's really insane!"
Kitahara Shuji didn't answer, he didn't like to refuse others coldly, and in fact, he also felt that Suzuki Noki was a little pitiful from the bottom of his heart - don't look at her super rich, she is not happy at all if she can't live, the maid deacon bodyguard around her takes her salary, and he may not dare to have a heart-to-heart relationship with her, and the celebrities he met at the ball banquet are estimated to be few simple people, and it is not easy to find reliable estimates.
Even before being restrained, she didn't even dare to go out of the house, probably she was the only one left in the Suzuki family's direct line, and her grandmother (or grandmother) was not at ease.
He used to think that Suzuki Noki was particularly annoying, and he harassed others at will for his own fun, and the eldest lady was full of temperament, very annoying, and a girl like Junko Sakamoto basically belonged to the same way, but now he really drove her away, and he felt a little bad in his heart.
Isn't that right?
He didn't speak, which made Fuyumi even more strange, but after thinking about it, the crescent moon eyes were bent, "You drove her away?
"I don't think it'...... coming"
"Great!" "Great!" Fuyumi immediately shouted outside: "Haruna, the beef doesn't need to be fried!" and Xueli ran in with the dishes and chopsticks, and replied for Haruna: "Sister, it's already in the pot, let's eat!"
Then she quickly set the dishes and chopsticks and knelt down next to Kitahara Shuji, waiting excitedly, saliva was about to flow out, and the toes on the feet under the buttocks were curled, but she noticed the business card on the table, picked it up and looked at it and asked in surprise, "Does she still have a business card?"
Xia Zhi Xia Sha also dragged her younger brother over, and before she could sit down, she asked, "What business card?"
Kitahara Shuji took the business card and threw it directly into the trash, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, I'm ready to eat." ”
He wasn't ready to deal with Suzuki anymore, and it was useless to keep it.
Xia Zhi Xia Sha exchanged glances and didn't ask again, but from time to time she looked at the little pig trash can containing fruit peel waste paper, and Dongmei had already started scooping rice, and asked happily: "Let you bring Yoko to eat together, why don't you see her all day?"
She's glad that Suzuki Muki is out, not to save her stutter.
"She's embarrassed to come often!"
Yoko doesn't come much when school starts, and at most occasionally comes over on weekends, usually sticking to her own home - she values having a home of her own.
Dongmei said indifferently: "She can't eat much, what does it matter, she can deduct it from your salary anyway...... The store will close for a day off on the 15th, and I will post a notice today. ”
If Kitahara Xiu asks for leave, this store will not be easy to open, and Haruna can't stand it, so in order to avoid diners complaining, he can only take a day off, and go to Kitahara's house to eat and drink by the way.
Kitahara Shuji smiled and said, "Okay!"
Regardless of that Suzuki Noshi, that guy is still quite tough in his bones, and he also has brains and means, so he should be fine, and the important thing now is to celebrate his sister's birthday.
This is the responsibility of being an older brother, and he must make his sister happy and happy.
