123. No Birthday (Part II)
After Hiratsuka said something, Shota left the hall where the birthday party was held, and Hiratsuka was still not ready to leave.
She wanted to eat more, and she didn't want to waste such a great opportunity.
As for other people's eyes and the like, with Hiratsuka's temperament, she doesn't care much about it. And she also knows very well that the guests on the scene will not have anything to do with her in the future, so she doesn't have to care about their opinions.
Just as Hiratsuka continued to eat the buffet, in the tea room on the other side, Shota knelt down opposite Yukino and Yono's mother in a regular manner, and didn't dare to act rashly even if his calves were already sore.
He was not at all accustomed to this traditional way of sitting.
But the experience from childhood has taught Shota that it is best not to have any rude behavior in front of the other party.
"Shota, I've worked hard for you, Yukino has bothered you. As a wife, Yukino still has a lot of shortcomings, but because her father let her live abroad alone for three years, I can't educate her properly. β
"It's okay aunt, you're polite, this is what I should do."
Shota was cautiously talking to Snow Mother, in the past, Shota was actually not so cautious, but now the situation is different, Snow Mother can already be said to be his future mother-in-law, naturally he can't face Snow Mother with the same attitude as before.
In particular, the two are still only fiancΓ©s, but they have already lived together. In this regard, Snow Mother knocked Shota many times openly and secretly, to pay attention to proportions or something, Shota could only smile politely and promised all Snow Mother's words.
Nearly 30 minutes passed, and when Shota's back was about to be covered with cold sweat, Yukimu finally ended the conversation and motioned for Shota to go to Yukino. Shota immediately stood up respectfully and bowed goodbye to the Snow Mother, although it was a little unetiquette, but because of the fact that Shota knew the roots and the relationship between the two families was close, the Snow Mother didn't care too much.
Because his calves were numb, Shota had to move his feet on the wooden floor in small steps, and he didn't rush towards Snow Mother when he got up like some thick-lipped beauty, thanks to his good physical exercise on weekdays.
"That's why I don't like to stay at home."
Yukino's voice came from the side, and as soon as Shota turned his head, he found that the other party who had cut his hair short had come to his side, holding his arm with both hands, and continued to walk forward.
Without waiting for Shota to ask, Yukino continued, "I heard from the maid that you went to see my mother, so I came here to wait for you. After all, an orangutan is an orangutan, and it is certainly not impossible to get used to human etiquette. β
It's still the same ridicule as before, but it makes Shota feel quite warm, and Shota immediately smiled and said, "Didn't you also say that this is the reason why you don't like to take it here?" Just look at your legs and you're not used to kneeling. β
Although kneeling or sitting upright has various benefits for the body, the only bad thing is that it will cause the legs to be eight inward, and if Google is not well developed, it will also affect bone development. Probably because of studying abroad, Shota didn't see this at all in Yukino's body.
And Yang Nai is different.,Not only has he been receiving a traditional education from his mother.,And my favorite sport is horseback riding.,Although I've been paying attention to it usually, my legs have been affected to a certain extent.γ
Xue Nai was noncommittal, and after a short while, he spoke: "Kneeling is only a trivial point, I heard that you will stay for dinner tonight, right?" β
"Well, it was Sister Yang Nai who asked for it."
"Why? My sister said that you used all kinds of excuses for not staying in the past few years. β
Shota didn't speak, but the look in his eyes had already shown why he had stayed for the family banquet under Yukino this year.
"I see." Xue Nai nodded lightly, "That's fine." β
"Uh......" Shota opened his mouth, and just when he was about to ask Yukino what he meant, he found himself guided by Yukino in a not quite right direction, "Wait, we seem to have gone wrong, right?" β
"Wrong? I'm pretty sure your room is just a short walk from the front. β
Shota has a special room in the snow house, although he has basically never lived here since he grew up. But the current situation is very different from what Shota thought, he looked at Yukino speechlessly, and sure enough, the reason why she was waiting for him outside the room was not because he expected Shota to have a numb leg due to kneeling, but because he didn't want to let him go to her room to find her.
"But there's a guest room over there!"
"Is there something wrong?"
Shota was speechless, feeling that he still thought things too good. But if you can only stay in the guest room, then Shota might as well go home and come back in the evening. The distance between the two sides is not close or far, but it is much better than killing time with a computer in the room.
"What's wrong, Shota?"
"Well, I guess I'd better go home and come back in the evening."
"Well, it's a pity, I'm thinking that before dinner, let's go for a walk around the neighborhood first, so forget it."
With that, Yukino turned cleanly and prepared to leave, but Shota clearly saw a smile in the other party's eyes.
Regardless of being ridiculed by Yukino, Shota directly left behind what he had just said, and moved quickly behind Yukino who pretended to be leaving with a half-limp and shouted, "Then what are you waiting for?" Let's go now! β
"It's so thick-skinned."
"Why did you learn Sister Yang Nai after cutting your hair short? It's really good, don't learn, learn bad. β
"Okay? What is good? What's bad again? What do I learn from my sister, Shota will you be satisfied? β
"Uh......"
Shota was just casually teasing, but he didn't expect it to cause such a big reaction from Yukino. Although the tone was still quite flat, Shota instinctively felt that Yukino's heart was by no means as bland as it seemed.
Looking at Yukino, who had already turned to look at him, Shota quickly reacted and said with a hippie smile: "For example, a smile, it's so beautiful to smile, but it's always a cold face." β
"If you want to look at the smile, wouldn't it be better for you to go and see your sister? Anyway, we're almost exactly the same now, aren't we? β
Although the truth is indeed as Xue Nai said, the two sisters, who were already very similar, now even have the same hairstyle, if you don't look at the temperament and figure and just look at the face, people who are not familiar with it may not be able to tell the difference.
But Shota wouldn't follow Yukino's words.
"It's completely different, who knows when Sister Yang Nai is really smiling and when she is smirking."
"I'll tell my sister."
Yukino turned around again and walked forward on her own.
"Hey, hey, how come I didn't know that your sisters' relationship had become so good?" Shota still followed behind Yukino with some difficulty, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, at least he made a mistake just now, "Anyway, this direction is wrong, isn't this the way to your room?" β
"Don't you want to go to my room?"
Shota followed Yukino silently, although he should have been happy to be able to enter Yukino's boudoir, but now he was a little unhappy. Today's Yukino, or rather Yukino after cutting her hair, seems to have become a little strange.
After entering Yukino's room, Shota's first reaction was disappointment.
Don't say anything about the girl's fragrance or something.,Yukino's room doesn't even have some ordinary decorations.,It's just an 'ordinary' Japanese-style room.γ Aside from a bookcase containing countless books on many subjects, the rest of the room was no different from Shota's.
It's just as cold, lacking the breath of people.
"I don't understand what you're disappointed about, I lived abroad in junior high school, and I've lived with you since I came back to China, what do you want my room to be like?"
Shota smiled bitterly at Yukino's words, and when he thought of having the opportunity to enter Yukino's room, he got a little carried away, and he didn't even think of such an obvious thing.
"Hurry up and get out when you're done, and don't rummage through things."
"Okay, good, obviously there's nothing to see, why are you so nervous."
"Who wants to come to my room?"
Shota pretended not to hear Yukino's rhetorical question, and walked directly to the desk in the room. On the desk is a small Mr. Pan doll about 10 centimeters long, as well as a photo frame.
After seeing the doll, Shota didn't stupidly ask, 'Why is there only such a small Mr. Pan?', nor did he say 'I will let the whole world know that Mr. Pan was contracted by you', he just picked up the photo frame next to the doll.
Although the Shota in the back basically can't do it.
"Huh? Is this you when you were a kid? It's completely different from when we met, it's really cute at this time, and I thought all the things you did in elementary school were exaggerated. β
For example, the story of the shoes and the boy and the girl and the teacher and the dog really made Shota cry and laugh at first.
Yukino in the photo is obviously a little smaller than Shota's impression of his first meeting, and his hair is not that long, just as short as now. The face is not a stinky and cold expression, but a little proud, a little naΓ―ve, but very easy to like the appearance of a little girl.
Yukino didn't react to Shota's half-praise and half-ridicule, as if it wasn't her, until Shota put down the frame before he spoke, "Let's go out." β
"Okay."
Shota nodded, his heart becoming more and more confused.
Yukino, what do you want to do? Could it have something to do with Falato?
