Chapter 14: The Gift
Shui Yin really felt that she didn't have to come here, and this kind of shopping mall labeled as "exclusive to the rich" seemed out of place with her. She's only here to buy a gift for Yuxia, but the sky-high prices here make Shui Yin's wallet tight. Yu Xia is also a young master, and he is prosperous and wealthy, and he has no worries about sleeping and eating, and of course ordinary gifts can't be taken. Shuiyin did have the idea of "pretending not to know his birthday", but as soon as he thought of Cheng's words and the bet with Yu Xia, he immediately killed this idea. She felt that although Yu Xia was perverted and annoying, it was not bad for her, and she had to buy this gift.
Shui Yin was doing intense mental activity as he walked towards the next gift shop. As she passed by a bookstore, she stopped abruptly. Shui Yin stood in front of the bookstore and thought for a while, when suddenly his eyes lit up and he pushed the door in.
This weekend, Cheng was not idle. Since he was discharged from the hospital in the morning, Nishimori has been following him every step of the way, and she has grabbed the corner of Nari's coat like a humanoid pet. Just a few hours ago, Cheng told Nishimori everything about him, and to Cheng's surprise, Nishimori had already recognized him. When did you recognize it, but do you remember the "Sports Festival" held last month? Cheng inadvertently rolled up his sleeves when he was counting the athlete numbers with Nishimori. At the beginning of the Nishimori period, he didn't associate him with the person he was a child with, but he spoke to give people the feeling that he was too similar to that person. When Cheng asked her why she kept hiding it, Nishimori replied briefly: "Because I'm afraid that you won't say goodbye again." Cheng was silent, he couldn't continue to pretend to be stupid, he knew that he was in trouble, and his childishness and irresponsibility finally made him feel uneasy, but after so many years, Nishimori has waited too long. No......" Cheng said thoughtfully, "You can't just leave it at that......" Cheng wanted to continue, but he didn't dare to make any more vows. "That'...... How about walking with me to the beach here? Of course Cheng agreed.
After leaving the hospital, the two went straight to the most beautiful natural beach in Hailing Town-Lingshi Beach. There are not many tourists on the beach, and it is no wonder that living by the sea every day has long been not interested in the beach or anything.
The earthy yellow sand had not yet been scorched by the morning sun; The sea breeze is light, accompanied by a hint of coolness; Seabirds tap the surface of the water, coming and going; A few fishing boats in the distance are dotted. Nari and Nishimori approached the shoreline, which was slightly green in the sand, looking for the wonderful memories that had been sealed for a long time.
"There are no rocks here...... Saimori's eyes narrowed slightly, she wanted to look further, wanting Cheng to help her climb the rocks again. Well, now, you can climb it on your own, right?
"Yes." Cheng's tone was weird, and he took advantage of Nishimori's distraction to lift her up from behind with both hands. Nishimori only felt a lightness in her body, and then, she rode on Cheng's shoulder.
"Hey! Put me down! Nishimori blushed and slapped Cheng's head in panic. If you keep fighting, you're going to bloom! Cheng closed his eyes tightly and "enjoyed" this "facial massage". Xishou struggled violently for a few minutes, but Kecheng didn't let go like he was holding on to a life-saving straw.
Seeing that she had stopped, he carried her along the coastline on his back. "Can you see farther this time?" Cheng tilted his head and smiled at her. "Hmm......" Nishimori held Naru's head with both hands, admiring the lost shore and the glittering pebbles. Once again, her heart was put back on the safe and comfortable rocks, looking out at the blue sea and blue sky.
Nishimori untied a necklace made of pebbles and lightly tied it around Nari's neck. "If you want to compensate me, stay with me for the rest of your life."
There was a gust of wind blowing in my face, mixed with the smell of sea salt from a small fishing village.
Shui Yin went straight home after buying the gift, holding a cardboard box in both hands with circles of tape tied to it. This gift is indeed not as expensive as the previous ones, but it also cost her nearly three hundred yuan. If you want to ask her how she got it, of course, it is "installment". Shui Yin entered the house, and two pairs of slippers on the ground were side by side. This guy hasn't come back yet? Shui Yin muttered to herself, she hadn't seen him since she woke up in the morning. Shui Yin carried the box that didn't look light into the house, looking east and west, not knowing where to hide. While she was struggling, she suddenly thought of a perfect spot—that cluttered corner.
But she clearly remembered that Yuxia had told her not to move there. "It's just something to hide, okay?" The sound of water enlightens itself. She covered the carton with waste paper and carefully moved it to the bottom of the stairs, where there was an empty space in the innermost part. The carton is slightly larger for this position, and there is no way, so Shui Yin got in and moved the container inside. The dry tape on the container was completely retired, and several of the contents fell to the ground. Mizune was so frightened by the sound that she broke something...... Shui Yin hurriedly reached out to pick it up, but fortunately, except for one of the items, there was separate packaging. Shui Yin gently put them back into the box one by one, and her gaze froze as she placed the last item, the only one that wasn't packaged.
It was a picture frame.
Shui Yin was just about to see the picture in the frame, but was turned back by an invisible force. "Can't look at ......," Shui Yin thought in pieces, "This is the ** of snooping on others." Resisting her curiosity, Shui Yin placed the gift in an empty spot, adding a "new member" to the dusty pile.
"What are you doing?" A fierce sentence made Shui Yin's heartbeat suddenly increase. Shui Yin pulled out like an electric shock and leaned against the wall in fear, while Yu Xia was looking at her suspiciously, waiting for her to give a reasonable explanation.
"I ......" Shui Yin blushed, and her incoherent appearance was not uncommon for Yu Xia.
Yu Xia didn't say anything, and directly bent down and poked her head in. Mizuin was completely panicked, in case Ha Natsu found out about the gift......
Mizune closed her eyes, trying to remember when Haxia had returned. She couldn't remember, it must have been a pile of debris that had dampened the sound. Yu Xia shrank back and patted the ash on her body. Shui Yin's whole body was pressed against the wall, and she couldn't exert any strength, and this embarrassing atmosphere couldn't help but make her break out in a cold sweat.
"What do you see?" Yu Xia asked in a calm tone. "Nope! Didn't look! I really didn't even look at it! "The sound of water is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot." So what do you do inside. Yu Xia asked. Shui Yin wanted to speak and stopped, how did she answer? Truth be told, things are only going to get worse. Shui Yin looked down at the floor, swallowed a thousand words, and shook his head slightly. A layer of mist hung in the corner of her eyes, as if it would form a drop of water in the blink of an eye.
Yu Xia silently poured a breath and said calmly, "It's okay. There was nothing in it. I don't let you get close because I'm afraid you'll knock over the clutter and press yourself inside, so you're fine. Haxia stepped forward, patted her on the shoulder and smiled back.
Shui Yin looked up hesitantly, even more overwhelmed. Her feet seemed to be tied to a jack pendant, and she wanted to move but didn't move. "I ...... Really didn't look at it...... I'm sorry......" Shui Yin repeated stiffly. "I believe in you." Yu Xia interrupted her, "If you're willing, take the time to help me sort out these things, it's really too messy." "Yu Xia's tone is well mastered, which is very relieving to hear." Hmm......" Shui Yin nodded with relief, and the tense atmosphere finally eased.
"Then I'll cook!" Mizune smiled apologetically and clasped her hands in front of her chest. "I've put the newly bought food on the table, let's make some of my favorite food." Yu Xia instructed.
Yu Xia looked back at the clutter that was full of ash but gave him a sense of intimacy, smiled slightly, and walked up the stairs.
"It's time to put it down." Yu Xia spoke in a very small voice, as if she was talking to herself.
In your life, you will also meet such a person, even if she makes a big mistake, even if it violates your principles, you will forgive her without reservation.
Who is this person?
