"—Xia Jun, why are you here?"

After seeing the tall young man with short hair who walked into the ward with Eri and Nozomi, Nishikino Mahime was stunned. How could she not recognize it as her favorite and favorite person.

"Do you need to ask? Of course I'm here to see you. ”

When Nishikino Mahime was still in a daze, Xia You's brows tightened slightly, and he took the lead in walking to the hospital bed.

After not seeing her for many days, the girl seemed to be a little emaciated, her jaw was becoming more and more pointy, and streaks of cyan blood could be faintly seen on the back of her white and tender hands. Her red hair, which was as rich as old wine, grew a little longer, tied up with a ribbon and flowed quietly over her shoulders.

And the thin hospital gown on the girl's body made Xia You feel even more distressed.

Seeing that he looked so concerned, the two daughters of Eri and Nozomi, who had only vaguely guessed, were finally determined. They looked at each other, and they all smiled a little.

"—Na, Ereri. ”

Nozomi Tojo pursed his lips and chuckled, beckoning to his best friend, motioning for her to come over a little.

The two bit their ears and whispered for a while.

Then, as if discussing something, Eri Ayase looked at the burgundy girl sitting on the hospital bed and asked with concern:

"Mahime, how are you feeling now? I guess the fever has subsided, right?"

"Ahh

With her attention almost entirely on Natsuyu, Nishikino Mahime slowed down for half a beat before noticing that Eri was talking to her, so she nodded busily.

And such a reckless performance made the smile on Nozomi Tojo's face deeper. She desperately resisted the urge to tease Mahime, and instead took a notebook from her schoolbag and handed it over.

"Come, Mahime, here's the score you left in the classroom. I received an email from Haiwei saying that you want it, so I brought it with me when I left school. ”

"Ahh

Looking down at the notebook, Mahime Nishikino was overjoyed for a moment.

For no other reason, it was too boring to stay in the ward to recuperate, and it was very restrictive, and I didn't feel comfortable doing anything. With the score, she was able to write songs to pass the time.

"No need to say thank you, we are partners and we should do this. As long as you can recover quickly, it's better for us than anything else. ”

Eri Ayase said seriously without blinking her eyes.

This made Nishikino Mahime unspeakably moved, and even her nose was a little sour. She clearly had a lot to say, but she couldn't say anything, and finally she could only hum in a low voice.

It's all in plain sight.

"Mahime, since your fever has subsided, then Ereri and I will go back today. We'll come back to see you tomorrow. ”

Nozomi Tojo took over the conversation and pursed his lips and smiled.

"Hey, are you going back so soon?"

Not only Nishikino Mahime, but even Xia You couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and looked at the two girls in surprise.

…… It's only been less than five minutes, isn't it? You're going back so soon?

In this regard, Ayase Eri is a little uncomfortable. She scratched her cheeks with her fingers, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she looked embarrassed to say something she wanted to say but was embarrassed to say.

In contrast, Nozomi Tojo is much bolder. She winked at Xia You and the two, with a happy expression on her face, and said in a low voice:

"yes, I won't bother you two today. ”

"Ugh!"

Listening to these meaningful words, Maki Nishikino, who was not the slightest defense, immediately skipped a beat in her heart!

Difficult, are they already ......

As if realizing something, she looked nervously back and forth at Eri and Nozomi, hoping that it was not what she thought. But when she saw one of them smiling bitterly and the other snickering, she finally had to face reality......

It's over, it's been discovered!

The shame of a little secret being exposed exploded in an instant.

"You, you, what are you talking about, the meaning is unknown!"

Because she was so flustered for a while, not only the voice, but even the fingers pointing at Nozomi Tojo began to tremble.

Seeing the girl's embarrassment and anger, Nozomi Tojo, who was a tax evader, was even more pleasant, covering her mouth and eating and laughing.

Eri Ayase shook her head with a wry smile and a helpless expression. Of course, she didn't forget to apologize to Xia You with her eyes.

In this regard, Xia You smiled and waved his hand to show that he didn't care.

In fact, as early as just now, he had already realized that his concern for Mahime was too much, not at all like the worry that ordinary friends should have, so it was easy for people to notice the relationship between the two of them.

But Xia You thought about it and felt that there was no need to hide it anymore. It may be better to take this opportunity to be generous and open about your relationship.

So he didn't deliberately hide his concern, which also made Eri and Nozomi confirm their guesses.

"Eri, Nozomi, you two remember to stay safe on the way back. - Also, I'm really bothering you this time, so I'm waiting for me to come along. ”

After a pause, Xia You regrouped and said.

"Don't worry about it, it's just a small thing. ”

Eri Ayase smiled and waved her hand as he had just done.

And the same is true of Nozomi Tojo.

Then the two girls didn't say anything more, and walked out of the ward after saying goodbye.

It's just that before leaving, Nozomi Tojo didn't forget to wave his fist at Mahime, as if he wanted to cheer her on. But this not only did not have the effect of cheering, but made the girl's face flushed, and she was so shy that she couldn't raise her head.

As soon as the two women left, the ward instantly became empty and became very silent. And the slanting sun outside the window gradually sinks in the west, which invisibly strengthens this atmosphere.

However, Nishikino Mahime didn't care about it at all. Eri and Nozomi's farce made her flustered now, and she didn't even dare to look up at Xia You, so she had to bow her head shyly.

Ahh——!h

Why do you want to say so many superfluous things? It's a strange atmosphere now, isn't it? It's so bad that people don't know what to say!

Nishikino Mahime's resentment mode is fully open.

Ah, besides, if I had known that Xia Jun would come to visit the patient, I should have dressed up in advance.

At least comb your hair! It's all a mess right now!

What a shame!

Maki Nishikino felt a girl's heart explode.

Although she knew that Xia You wouldn't care about this, as a girl in love, she didn't want her admirers to see even the slightest bad thing, she didn't want him to disappoint, and she didn't want him to become disgusted with herself.

Xia Yu doesn't know the small theater in Mahime's brain. He just pulled a chair and sat down on the edge of the bed, then took Mahime's hand.

There was deep remorse in his expression.

"I'm sorry, Mahime. I didn't even know you were sick. I'm really sorry. ”

"It's not your fault at all, Xia Jun, you don't have to apologize. It was because I was not good myself, and I didn't pay attention to rest, so I got sick. ”

As soon as she heard this, Nishikino Maki didn't care about what she was worried about, shook it back with her backhand, and quickly shook her head and said so.

"Ah, by the way, Xia Jun, how did you know that I was sick and hospitalized? ”

Seeing that Natsuyu seemed to be about to blame himself and apologize, Maki Nishikino smartly changed the subject.

“…… I called you because no one answered, so I called Eri and asked about you, and that's when I found out that you were hospitalized. ”

After explaining, Xia You subconsciously skimmed over the reason for his call and didn't say anything.

Hearing this, Nishikino Mahime seemed to think of something, and hurriedly took out her mobile phone from her bag and looked at it.

…… Ah, sure enough, the power is out.

This made her stick out her tongue at Xia You, and apologized:

"That, I'm sorry, Xia Jun, my phone seems to have been out of battery since last night, and I have forgotten to charge it. ”

"It's fine. ”

Xia You waved his hand absently. For him, it's better for Mahime to be safe than anything else.

"How's your health now?

"No, it'll be fine after the fever subsides at noon. - Originally, the doctors said that I could go back, but my mother insisted that I rest for a few more days and be hospitalized for more observation. ”

First shook his head and said, and then Nishikino Mahime complained dissatisfiedly, looking full of complaints.

But she can't be blamed for this, because staying in the hospital is really boring.

Listening to the girl's constant complaints, the pouting and whining appearance was also very cute, which made Xia You couldn't help but smile. He raised his hand and touched her hair affectionately.

"I know it's boring to be in the hospital, but I'd better stick with it. I'll come and see you every day. - Oh, and also, when we're well, we'll go on a date. ”

"Really!?"

Hearing this proposal, Nishikino Maki Deng's face was surprised, and her eyes sparkled. She remembered the previous trip to Disneyland together.

Xia You didn't evade looking back at each other, he smiled and nodded.

"Of course it's true. ”

"Great!"

Nishikino Mahime was overjoyed, and immediately couldn't help cheering. It was only after Xia You reminded her not to shout too loudly that she finally came back to her senses, and realized that she was too unreserved, so she couldn't help blushing and lowering her head.

In this regard, Xia You smiled and didn't care, but the guilt in his heart deepened more and more.

There is no other reason, and the easier it is for Mahime to be satisfied, the more he feels indebted.

…… Anyway, I can't let this kid get hurt anymore, no matter what.

Xia You secretly made up his mind.

At this moment, a series of footsteps suddenly came from outside, which made the two of them stunned and looked back one after another.

It just so happened that a neat woman walked into the hospital room. She was wearing a doctor's standard white lab coat, with no buttons and an open placket, and a pen in her breast pocket, looking casual and free.

But the meticulous and delicate makeup, as well as the red hair that was as smooth as silk rolled high, added a bit of grace and luxury to her.

At first glance, you can see that he is definitely a person of extraordinary status.

Seeing the visitor, Mahime's expression suddenly froze. And the graceful woman was also a little stunned, and her eyes finally fell on Xia You.

"-You are?"

…

(Ah, it would be nice if I could become Natsuyu, and I would be a good OvO to Mahime wholeheartedly)
