Chapter 45: One Hundred Secrets and One Neglect
The snow was not so bad as to break down because she was unprepared for my question, and she coped with the next question in as calm a tone as possible. However, everyone knows that the road ahead of this speech may not be so smooth under the heavy snow.
I don't know how many other people I know with me have followed this short encounter besides under the snow, and I don't know what those who see it will say about me. After this farce, the rumors that Yubihama Kazuya may have a relationship with Yukishita Yukino will be self-defeating, and I can be regarded as completing the first half of the agreement with Yukishita Yono.
I didn't know what the outcome would be after completing the second half of my plan, but I had no choice when I embarked on this path.
When I came out of the crowd, the first thing I saw was Yui-sama - it was normal, and I continued my plan shortly after she warned me, and it was time for her to interrogate me.
However, it was not the face of the angry reddened sister who was facing her, but the sister who had a complicated face and hesitated to act.
"Xiaohe, can I talk to you for a while?" she asked, uncertain.
There's no need to be so uncertain, I'm ready for your reprimand!
"Of course, I won't refuse my sister at any time, will I?"
Yui didn't speak, she just nodded and pulled me out of the crowd.
I don't know if it's because of the reputation of the new Miss Chief Wu Gao, or because everyone recognized me as the person who just asked the question, or because of my own delusion, everyone held their breath and silently made a passage for me and Sister Yui, as if the noise that belonged to the election just now did not exist.
------------------------------- dividing line------------------------------------
It's a novelty to talk to Yui in the family restaurant, and the conversation between the siblings is usually at home, or in my room, or in my sister's room, and my room is the majority, so this kind of conversation has a little more of a family carelessness. Choosing a public place such as a family restaurant undoubtedly adds a layer of separation to the relationship between relatives, making the conversation more formal.
"How long has Xiaohe been planning for today's incident?"
"I don't remember exactly. β
This is the truth.,I vaguely remember that I had an agreement with Yono under the snow to solve her sister's problem.,Slowly discovering that simple help can't be effective.,The most important thing is to change the way you think about problems under the snow.,So,Whether it was when the cultural festival saw the fragile side under the snow.,Or when the cultural festival ended and prepared for the student council election, I really can't remember whether I started this plan to die and be reborn.γ
"Xiaohe means, you can't remember how long you've been deceiving Xiaoxue, is that true?" the sister pressed her temple and asked helplessly.
Although this sentence sounds harsh, it cannot be denied. β
"No wonder! If it's been planned for so long, then Xiaohe really won't change his mind because of what I said before, right? I found out too late, it doesn't make sense, right?"
I responded with silence.
"So, why? Why did you do these things to Xiaoxue?" the sister continued to ask, "I don't believe that Xiaohe would do such a thing because he hates Xiaoxue - Xiaohe hates a person, he will only be silently dissatisfied in his heart, and will not try to embarrass her, right?"
"Because, although Xiaohe always behaves coldly, coldly enough to make people feel excessive, Xiaohe is actually a very gentle person, isn't it?"
It turns out that in my sister's heart, have I always been such an existence?
This is probably Yui Hihama's gentleness - what belongs to me is always disliked by me, and it doesn't look like a sister at all, but it's really my sister's gentleness.
I nodded as my answer.
Sister Yui blinked excitedly: "Yes, I know, Xiaohe should be here to help Xiaoxue, right?"
"Hmm. β
"So, how do you help?Ah, I know, I'm worried that Xiaohe's relationship with Xiaoxue is too close, causing me to have the kind of suspicion I had before, so I took the initiative to do such a thing to let everyone clear up the misunderstanding? And then Xiaohe left a back move, and finally he was able to make Xiaoxue the president, right?"
The heartfelt reassurance in Yui's sparkling eyes proved that she really thought so.
Perhaps, in her world, there is no extreme cruelty to reality - it's just that her brother is still darker than her.
My silence again made my sister slowly quiet, and it was obvious that she also realized that what was happening now was not so simple.
"Really, I think too well, isn't it?"
"I'm really sorry to disappoint you, Yui-san. β
"No, it's nothing, it's me who thinks so much on my own, and I'm a little too optimistic. β
"I'm sorry. β
"So, can you tell me the real reason?"
I habitually wanted to find a reason to say no, after all, I had been on my own for too long. On this so-called right path that I have found myself, for the sake of being right, for the benefit of the vast majority of people, I am constantly giving up the people around me, first under the snow, then Isshiki, before Kogi Sao's predecessors, and even now there is still a so-called cooperative relationship with Sonoda, she and I are very clear that the contract between us is essentially over.
The reason why I didn't give up on Sister Yui was because I never regarded my sister as someone I could rely on, so when my sister took the initiative to ask me and hinted to me that she could be the person next to me, I was at a loss.
What can Yui-san do? I've always been helping her, and I've been joking that Yui-san is actually my younger sister, and that the older sister just needs to keep moving forward according to her own ideas, and that as a younger brother I'll help her with all the obstacles - that's how it should be.
Recently, however, I've noticed that Yui-sama's pace of progress often stops, as if to cooperate with me, as if I know that I can't push her forward so calmly. Of course, it was still bearable, because, after all, I was still behind her.
And now, when she slows down again, and even says I'm going to take the initiative to help you, what should I do?
"Yui-san, do you believe me?"
"Of course, I've always believed in Xiaohe!"
"Well, you can trust me to give Snow the best ending in the end. I smiled reluctantly and said to my sister.
Yui Yui doesn't need to worry about Yubihama and don't need to hesitate for Yubihama Kazuya, because, for as long as I can remember, I've always been such a person who doesn't need to worry my sister, and if she worries now, it will be a dereliction of duty as a younger brother.
"The problem under the snow is that she is too dependent on others, and all her beliefs are borrowed from other people. One principle disappeared, and she couldn't wait to throw herself into another principle that the people around her had set for her, completely, lacking self-insistence. So her beliefs, which seem to be extremely firm, are actually extremely fragile. β
"Because of some accident, under the snow began to pretend to lend me the faith I offered her, and I realized this very early. But if she was told that it didn't make sense, she wouldn't understand. So, what I want to do is to make her feel the feeling of complete betrayal by someone she trusts, although this is a bit extreme, but only after experiencing this can she really think about what she really wants and how much she can do herself. β
I told my sister exactly what I was thinkingβnot to ask her for help, of course, but to show her faith.
"So, so far, everything is in my plan, I just need to calm down under the snow, remind her, make her aware of what to do, and that's it. β
"That's it, Kowa's thoughts?"
"Well, what's the problem?"
"After betraying Xiaoxue like that, it's a victor and a bystander to tell her what to do, right?"
"I understand what you mean, sister, that it is indeed too much for me to tell this to the snow - but I believe that under the snow, I believe that she is a psychologically strong and rational enough person that she may not choose to forgive me, but she will surely realize the intention I want her to understand. β
"That's right, Xiaoxue is probably that kind of person - even if she hates a person, even if she doesn't like a person, she won't deny the merits of that person, and some people who are too reasonable!" said my sister with a wry smile.
"That's right, that's my biggest reliance on this plan, isn't it?"
"But, Kowa, remember the warning I gave you earlier?" my sister looked up at me helplessly.
"Warning. β
"That's what I said to Xiaohe, the factor that Xiaohe may have ignored, I thought that Xiaohe may not have ignored it before, but now it seems that this is not the case!"
"So, what did I overlook?"
"Just now, Xiaohe agreed with me and thought that Xiaoxue was a person who was too reasonable, right?"
"Well, that's right. β
"However, has Xiaohe ever considered what will become of a person like Xiaoxue when he becomes impulsive?"
"Getting impulsive under the snow? It's not funny at all."
- No, this possibility still exists.
Some clues that I didn't pay attention to before slowly became entangled.
"Impossible, right?"
Because of the excessive belief that the person is not the person who will be moved by feelings, therefore, ignore the possibility of the girl having feelings, but, if-
"-If I say that Xiaoxue really likes Xiaohe, then what will Xiaohe think?"
"If Xiaoxue is not only betrayed by the person she trusts, but also by the person she likes, when she finds out that everything that the person she likes does to her is part of the lie, Xiaohe thinks, can she still maintain the sanity you imagined?"
Yui-sama's words reached my ears a little fluctuatingly.
I fully understood the meaning of these words.
When betrayed by someone you like, who else can look at all this calmly?
