Chapter 231: Those who face together and those who move forward alone
Kazuya felt that even if he was given the opportunity to choose again many times, what he was facing now was inevitable, because, the appearance of Ayase, along with the appearance of the other two girls behind Ayase, had directly blinded him, not that he was not psychologically prepared to face others, but Kazuya knew that the so-called psychological preparation was only counted when he was ready, and now this sudden situation made him completely overwhelmed.
So, on the one hand, Kazuya and Eiriri, who were still in the posture of hugging each other the other hand, Ayase who covered her mouth and didn't know what to say, and Kato and Shiyu, whose faces behind her were also a little embarrassed, the five of them looked at each other slowly and were silent for a long time.
If you have to go back to the source, you can see from Ayase's increasingly anxious emails in recent times that Ayase's mood is somewhat special, but he never imagined that Ayase would be able to find this villa in Eiri Pear, although when he was a child, he and Eiri Pear came here to play with Ayase, but only with that vague impression of childhood to find here, this kind of thing can only be described as incredible.
What's even more unpredictable is that Ayase also brought two other people over, Kato and Shiyu, who he hadn't contacted for more than a week, and also told his sister to hide these two people, and now, he stood at the door and looked at himself in a daze. If Ayase's unauthorized approach to the door only made him a little helpless, Ayase's practice of revealing his whereabouts instead of helping him hide from the other two made him a little angry.
That's right, this is Kazuya's first reaction when he sees the three of them, panic, and the anger that comes from panic, the anger that wants to blame someone else for the problem because he is overwhelmed by something he doesn't know how to deal with.
From Ayase's point of view, when she received the email from Kazuya last night, she had a feeling of relief at last, although she had seen the work of Eiri before, so when Kazuya proposed to be Eiri's assistant, her first reaction was understanding. But the hints that Kazuya had told her about the possibility of falling in love before, as well as the somewhat unexpected fact that Kazuya didn't go home for a week, gave her a vague sense of something bad.
And this feeling is even more obvious when Kazuya begs himself not to tell Shiyu and Kato about this, and the sensitive Ayase can basically guess what the hidden meaning behind Kazuya said this, but the email that Kazuya sends her at a fixed time every night still has a trace of "hope" that she doesn't even know why she wants.
When she learned that Kazuya was about to come back, Ayase felt that the burden on her body had been put down, and her whole mind drifted to the villa of Ying Riri, not to mention, and in a little anxious and apprehensive situation, Shiyu and Kato, who were inquiring about Kazuya's information, brought over this matter, which seemed to be no big deal in her opinion.
And she, who just wanted to see Kazuya, didn't even bother to find out why she was so urgent, when she opened the door and saw Kazuya, and the sudden change in the face of Kazuya, her first reaction was not because of the sadness and surprise of her brother and Yingli pears hugging each other, but realizing that she had lived up to Kazuya's fear of trusting her.
Obviously, he made his brother angry because of his willfulness before, and he was very careful to mend the relationship after that, and if there was a rift because of this incident, then Ayase felt that he didn't know what to do.
In the end, after the five of them looked at each other for a long time, Ayase's face, which was under increasing pressure in her heart, showed a rare look of panic and wanted to cry, and shouted anxiously: "Ah, that, brother, it's not like this, it's not like this, I'm not, I'm not-"
What Ayase wanted to express meant was "I didn't deliberately want to bring Shiyu-senpai and Megumi-senpai over", but, in a hurry, she couldn't say exactly what she meant, and in this kind of scene, which is somewhat similar to "catching rape", it is easy to misunderstand the meaning of "I didn't mean to disturb you and Yingli Riri-senpai".
Ayase's words made the other four even more embarrassed. Not to mention the two heroes and heroines of the "disturbed" incident, the expressions of the other two uninvited guests are more complicated.
Although they have made up their minds that they can choose to let go, and even prepared to expect that they want to give up, but Kazuya's decisive week of not contacting themselves still makes Kato and Shiyu a little upset, in the routine assembly of blessing-software after school, Kazuya and Yingli are more conspicuous at the same time, coupled with Ayase's embarrassing statement that she obviously knows Kazuya's whereabouts but refuses to disclose it, which has made Shiyu and Kato aware of the ending.
However, out of the girl's mood of not wanting to give up until the last moment, the two still tacitly followed Ayase when she showed that she wanted to go to Kazuya, and in the taxi that came here, Ayase kept looking out the window and was silent because she was worried about Kazuya, and Kato and Shiyu both felt that their identities were even more unjustified and had nothing to say.
And when Ayase cried and said "It's not okay to disturb you", Kato and Shiyu felt their sense of disobedience in front of Kazuya and Eiri Ri even more, and the attitude of hope that they felt when they had given up but had a dead face made their faces redder.
At this time, both Kato, who is good at adjusting the atmosphere, and Shiyu, who is good at manipulating words, feel as if their feet are on fire, and they don't want to stay in this atmosphere for a moment.
Therefore, after looking at each other for a while, Kazuya and Yingli Lili, who were supposed to be the "caught rape" side, had nothing to say, just embarrassed, but the three Ayase who were the "rape" party seemed even more reluctant to stay here because of the guilt and embarrassment in their hearts.
At this time, Kazuya instinctively felt that he should say something, but he still hesitated when he looked at Ayase, who was about to cry, and then at Shiyu and Kato, who seemed to leave as soon as he said something inappropriate.
At this time, what surprised him was that Ying Lili, whose hands were still around his body just now, had already let go of her hands, gently shook Kazuya's hand, stepped forward, squeezed out an unnatural but very firm smile, and said, "Well, this, everyone, let's come in first, it's a little cold outside!" Ayase, well, and Megumi and Shiyu, if there's something to do, come in and talk about it. ”
At this time, Kazuya suddenly remembered what Ying Lili said before, "I will accompany you to deal with it".
Indeed, when I didn't do it, Ying Lili did it with me! Looking at Ying Lili, who turned her head and squeezed out a smile at herself, Kazuya was stunned. It turned out that the girl in her cognition, who was always passively teased by others and led by the rhythm of others when the same group of people were present, now actively chose the rhythm that led everyone.
At least the current Yingli pear,It's no longer the childhood sweetheart he usually thinks is a little stupid!
----------------------------- Dividing Line----------------------------------
Ying Lili's studio, which had been cleaned up a bit, was much cleaner than the usual littering of drawing boards, paper, and paints, so everyone sat down. However, instead of sitting in a circle shape as usual, the five of them still closely formed the image of Kazuya and Eiri sitting side by side, and Ayase, Kato, and Shiba sitting in a row facing them.
Although Kazuya's first reaction was to let everyone sit at a round table, but when he did this, Ying Li Li gently grabbed his hand or exposed his childhood friend and girlfriend, in the calm nervous mood just now, coupled with his idea of wanting to show an attitude, he finally decided to sit with Ying Li Li.
And when he sat down, the complicated expressions in the eyes of the three girls opposite naturally couldn't escape his eyes.
But that's all there is to it now, right? Even if Ying Lili will face it with me, make choices, and draw clear boundaries, I can't back down! Although he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he still looked at Ying Lili and chose to move forward with her.
This way of sitting down led to the fact that although the three of Ayase entered the villa, the attitude of the confrontation did not change from before, and it was still a situation where the three women were playing against a man and a woman. However, Yingli Li's words just now seemed to calm down Ayase, who was a little out of control, and she was now able to say what she wanted to say in full:
"Well, that, brother, I didn't mean to, I didn't mean to tell this-uh"
However, halfway through the words, Ayase also realized that saying these words at this time seemed to be disrespectful to the two senior sisters around him, so he stopped awkwardly again.
Fortunately, Kato, who is now a little calmer, realized Ayase's embarrassment, and said, "We came here without permission, I'm sorry, Aragaki-san, Ayase hasn't told us about your situation before." Now, Kasumigaoka-senpai, is that so? ”
Shi Yu's reaction was slightly cold, but she nodded slightly while staring directly at Ying Lili.
And after explaining these words, the scene fell into embarrassment again.
Kazuya now feels that he really has nothing to say, and the kiss he just had with Ying Li Li had already been witnessed by the three of them, so it didn't seem to matter if he pushed the boat down the river. However, the other party did not ask a clear question, and he still hoped that he could tell others his choices and feelings in a more gentle way.
However, looking at everyone who was silent, Kazuya finally made up his mind and took a deep breath: "Then, let me come-"
"Just let me tell you, right? Ayase, did you come here because of the sketch that you were about to finish? However, before Kazuya could say those words, Ying Lili spoke first, and the timing was just stuck when Kazuya was about to speak, so he didn't know if it was a coincidence.
Ying Lili's somewhat nonsensical question made everyone stunned, although the main purpose of Ying Lili's retreat during this time and Kazuya's retreat with her is naturally the CG picture of the game, but everyone present now knows that everyone's current focus is not here. However, as soon as Ying Lili's words came out, the three of Kato didn't know how to deal with it.
So, Ying Lili continued to speak at a very fast speed: "To be honest, this still surprises me, I thought that the most anxious person would be that guy Lunya, but I didn't expect you two to come first, and so did Ayase, it's not easy to find here, right?" Heck, although I know that my drawings are very exciting for you, and Kasumigaoka Shiyu, you will also worry that my drawings are too attractive and make your script look tarnished, but don't worry, I still try to control the rhythm as much as possible, and people will also be interested in your script! ”
Everyone just looked at Ying Lili's speech in a daze, and talked about her own tirade endlessly, at this time, it was a little like Lun Ye, who was preaching to people who were not interested, thinking about his own thoughts, and completely ignoring the feelings of others.
But,And can also feel it.,The current Ying Lili,It's definitely not stupid enough to not know what other people are thinking.,It's not inexplicably boasting about her paintings.,She's really trying to ease the atmosphere of the scene.,The performance of the Ying Li just now,The performance of the arrogant Ying Li Li in the usual club activities is exactly the same.,But,Now,She's just using that kind of stupid state.,Want to use this kind of stupidity to enliven the atmosphere of the scene., Obviously, she also knows Kazuya's current idea of wanting to slowly make others accept this fact.
This is the so-called "face together" of Ying Lili!
However, looking at Ying Lili who worked so hard, the depressed mood in Kazuya's heart became more obvious, obviously it was his own choice, why should girls bear that kind of pressure?
"That's it!" Kazuya stood up, stopped Eiri Riri, who was deliberately dancing with her hands, blocked behind her, took a deep breath, looked at the three Ayase who had realized what was going to happen next, and said, "Maybe you can have guessed it before, of course, you should also know after that situation just now, that is, well, I'm with Eiri Pear, together!" ”
Even if it's together, at least, let me be in front of you first!
At that moment, Kazuya, although he suddenly had an inexplicable pain in his heart, still stood up straight, blocked the whole person of Ying Lili behind him, and looked at his sister without blinking, looked at his favorite tablemate, and looked at the senior sister he felt like-minded, and said so.
