Chapter 49 The so-called loneliness

After seeing Asuka compromise, Shinji just smiled softly, and then returned to his room, and when he opened the door, he found Rei already sitting on the bed after taking a shower. Wearing a slip dress, Li, with two white arms gently wrapping around the little future and smiling, it can be seen from the girl's smile that the girl at this moment is happy because of the fragrance of the house.

"Well...... Today is Tanabata, but I forgot to buy a gift for you, and the roses in the house are considered gifts, can you? ”

"Hmm~ Thank you Shinji, I like it very much." Rei smiled softly. It can be seen that Rei is very satisfied with this gift.

"Well, if you like it." Shinji shrugged his shoulders and sat down next to Rei, looking at the alarm clock at the bedside, the hands were already pointing to ten o'clock. "Well...... Time is really fast. It's already ten o'clock. Li, rest early, Sister Misato just informed me that you are going to go to NERV all day to carry out the start-up linkage test of machine zero starting tomorrow. ”

"yes, I see. But...... I still want to finish that story before I go to sleep. ”

"Hehe, have you been thinking about that story?"

“…… Well. Leigh nodded slightly.

“ok。 ...... then" Shinji smiled slightly, and after sitting on the bed, Shinji raised his head and looked through the window to find the starry sky in the sky. In a matter of minutes, Shinji found the long belt of stars, and on both sides of the galaxy, two twinkling stars appeared in front of Shinji's eyes. I have to say that the starry sky in this world is still very clear, there are countless stars in the sky, although it is a heavy industrial city, but the air quality is good.

"Li, look, there's the Cowherd Star and the Vega Star." Shinji pointed to two twinkling stars in the sky. "Look, isn't there a long galactic belt between them?"

"Hmm." Rei leaned her back against Shinji's chest and looked in the direction of Shinji's finger with a longing look.

"Well, the pair of lovers of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl can't meet because of this galaxy."

"Huh?" Rei looked back at Shinji with some confusion when she heard this. And Shinji gently hugged the girl's arms. After all, Shinji has a habit of turning on the air conditioner.

"It is rumored that after the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl lived together for a period of time, the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother of Heaven knew about the Weaver Girl's private descent to the earth, and the two god kings were furious about this matter, and immediately ordered the gods of the god realm to capture the Weaver Girl and come back. One afternoon, the gods took advantage of the Cowherd's absence to secretly take the Weaver Girl, and when the Cowherd returned home, he found that his beloved wife was gone, and hurriedly put on the cowhide left for them by the dead old cow. Carrying the two children with a flat pole, they chased towards the divine realm. However, just when the Cowherd was about to catch up with the god who took away the Weaver Girl, the Queen Mother was in a hurry, pulled off the golden hairpin on her head and slashed towards the Milky Way. The Cowherd was left on the other side of the galaxy and could no longer live. Since then, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl can only look at each other across the river. For a long time, the two never left the riverbank, just looked at each other and cried. And their move finally touched the magpies of the human world, thousands of magpies flew into the sky, gathered into a long magpie bridge, the cowherd stepped on the magpie bridge and finally met the weaver girl as he wished. The sincere love of two people not only touched the world, but also moved the divine realm, so the queen mother ordered every year on July 7, to allow the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl to meet once, in addition, there is a legend that if people can hear the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl in the sky under the grape trellis on the day of the Chinese Valentine's Day, this story has also become a beautiful and romantic story of hx. ”

Shinji, who finished telling the story, looked down at the person in her arms, and she found that Rei was sincerely staring at the starry sky at this time, and her ruby eyes were full of mist, as if a crystal teardrop would cross Rei's white face with a slight shake.

With a gentle smile, Shinji tightened his arms to show comfort to the girl. "Li, this is the story of the HX Tanabata, in order to commemorate this day, the HX people regard the 7th of July as their own unique Valentine's Day, is the story good?"

"Hmm." Leigh reached out and wiped the tears from her eyes. Leaned slightly towards Shinji's chest. "It's a touching story."

"Hehe, yes, but it's late, Leigh, we're going to rest. We're going to start training tomorrow. With that, Shinji lay down first, stretching a big stretch.

"Well, by the way, I just heard you and the second qualifier screaming, what happened?" When Rei saw Shinji lying down, she lifted the quilt and lay down. The roses on the bed fell to the ground one by one, which looked very comfortable.

"Well...... Well...... "Shinji was a little embarrassed, but he still told Liri what Misato had just told him.

"Hmm. That's about it. So I'm going to be with tomorrow morning? Agent 鞯ザ涝谝桓 Xin Feng Yongyi? Astute? Still? Yi Qiang? ERV inside. You can come to me anytime. ”

"Is that so? Well, I see. As she spoke, she covered her mouth and yawned gently, then closed her beautiful eyes and lay down peacefully beside Shinji.

"Huh?" Shinji wondered. "That...... According to the normal plot development, won't you be jealous? ”

"Jealous?" Leigh obviously couldn't understand the word.

"Uh...... It refers to the sour feeling in the heart. Shinji explained awkwardly.

"No, it won't." Rei replied with a smile. That smile was as if the most beautiful rose in the world was quietly blooming. "Because Shinji once said that as long as you are here, you will let the warmth I hope for always remain, I believe in you." As she spoke, Rei took the initiative to wrap her hands around Shinji's chest and gently pressed them on.

"Li...... You ......" Shinji was a little overwhelmed by Rei's initiative.

The book says...... This is the distance between boyfriend and girlfriend. Shinji, is there any point in doing this? Leigh asked, blushing.

"Hehe, it turned out to be in a book." Shinji smiled. But then again, what kind of book is Leigh reading? And write this kind of thing...... I thought to myself, but I didn't dare to say it. There is something that a beautiful woman throws herself into, and Shinji will say that it will be struck by lightning if she says anything.

"Well...... What's the point? You should ask yourself how you feel, Leigh. Shinji tapped the tip of Rei's nose slightly, then stretched out his arm and grinned at Rei's delicate body.

"Do you feel it?" Rei closed her eyes, and a happy smile appeared on her face in an instant. "Hehe, it feels, it's warm."

"Really? That would be enough. Shinji didn't speak, hugging Rei's soft delicate body, enjoying the tranquility of Tanabata-

a.t.field——

About five minutes later, a slight knock on the door reached Shinji's ears, although it was very faint, but with Shinji's killer's hearing, in such a quiet environment, no small sound could escape his ears. Feeling the strangeness of the door, Shinji sighed slightly.

"Shinji...... Just now, that's the second qualifier, right? Rei opened her beautiful eyes and asked Shinji.

"Huh? Did Leigh feel it too? Hehe, too, I forgot that you have that powerful perception. Shinji smiled helplessly. Well, it was her, I thought she had just passed by just to go to the bathroom, but I didn't expect her to be outside the door for so long, and I wouldn't have known she had been outside the door all the time if it hadn't been for the slight sound of her closing our door at the end. ”

"Is she eavesdropping on our conversation?"

"I don't know, maybe it's because the scent of roses in the house attracted her."

"That'...... Did she hear all the words just now? ”

"Hmm...... I must have heard them all, because I had just told you the story when I found her, and although there was only a slight sound when the door was opened through a small crack, I did hear it. If she's really been listening outside, then she must have heard it all. Do you care about her? Shinji turned his head to look at the girl in his arms.

"I don't know......" Rei didn't answer Shinji directly. Instead, he gently buried the head of the mantis in Shinji's chest. "All I know is that in the eyes of the second qualifier, I can see that she has the same emotions as I used to be. So ......"

"Emotions ever? What do you mean...... Afraid of loneliness? ”

"Hmm......" Rei said, her eyes slightly darkened. Actually, although I don't like the way she looks at me, I also want to help her, and I don't want that kind of loneliness to appear in the people around me. But I didn't know how. ”

"Rei......" Shinji smiled softly when he heard Rei's words. Leigh, you've really changed, when I first met you, you were cold, but now, you've learned to think about others, and that's a good thing. ”

"Really?" Leigh's cheeks flushed slightly. "All I know is that my life has changed since Shinji came. I can feel warmth in my cold heart, so I want to give this warmth to those who feel the same way as me. Second Qualifier...... Shinji, can we help her? ”

"Hmm. Absolutely. In fact? Agent? Hui Bei Ji waved off the faint shallow?? Starling? Ant noisy cows? That? Dare to eat? About the time when we are about to consume the truth of the peony and the pasture, and the illusion of the time?? Don't lie? Repeatedly? Copy! Shut up and recite Α! Ang Yu Juggling?? Mulberry? Bifurcation? Astatine forgiveness! Closed concubine fan is said to be a private pot n 倥? Neon Zhizhi? Lofty? Fed? p> "Shinji...... If one day, I become a weaver girl, will you be willing to ......?"

"No, it won't." Leigh's words weren't finished yet. was calmly interrupted by Shinji.

"Huh?"

"No, it won't. I won't be as stupid as the Cowherd, I only see you once a year. Shinji grinned. If you really become a weaver girl one day, then even if I die, I will definitely swim across the turbulent galaxy and meet you on the other side of the river. Not to mention a year, even a day, I don't want you to feel lonely. ”

"Shinji......" Rei's eyes flashed again. So, what if it's the second qualifier? ”

"Hehe, you're really good at asking questions." Shinji tapped the tip of her nose lightly. "If it were her, as long as she was willing to really open up, I would do the same thing, because she is the same person who is afraid of being alone, just like us." Shinji said solemnly. In turn, it regained the appearance of hip-hop. "Of course, as my real girlfriend, you can't be jealous. Hee-hee. ”

"You...... Shinji~" Rei heard Shinji's teasing and slapped Shinji's chest with a red cheek, just like a girl in a normal relationship.

"Leigh." Gently grabbed the hand that Rei had hit. Shinji said softly. "Leigh, trust me, I will never let you feel lonely. Absolute. ”

"Hmm." Rei leaned against Shinji's chest and said softly. With just a single click, that sense of trust was immediately felt by Shinji. "If I could, I would like to convey that warmth to the second qualified person as well."

"Hehe, it will be, as long as we work hard, I believe that sooner or later one day? Agent sole? Intimidate? Charm barrier? Bow to G! Slack? Whoa? Reef Gang coughed down Mi Mu Punishment Bullet Cormorant? ァ?p>

And on the other side......

"Stupid."

Asuka curled up, leaning against the wall, her hair, which was a little gray from the moonlight, covered Asuka's pretty cheeks, but it was difficult to hide the tears that Asuka shed.

"Stupid! Stupid Shinji! Stupid Leigh! Asuka's body trembled slightly, "Stupid Shinji, Misato said that the house here is designed because people's creed is to be aware of each other and think about each other." Do you think I can't hear through the wall? What to say warmly, what to say to open your heart. I don't believe it! It's all a lie! Asuka's tears of excitement flowed like beads with broken threads.

"I've always felt that I've always felt that I'm alone, and I've already been able to ignore the so-called loneliness, so why do I still have heartache......" Asuka asked herself as she reached out and pressed her chest.

"Shinji, Rei. You two big fools! ”
