CHAPTER XXXIV
It is not an exaggeration to say that December is the busiest month of the year.
This year, in anticipation of Christmas and the New Year in January, Shijo Kawara Town has held an illumination exhibition in mid-November with the theme of "Sky Forest Starry Light Wheel".
All of a sudden, my circle of friends was full of news about the lantern show.
Once browsing the group message, I accidentally clicked on the play button of the lantern exhibition video, and the noise in the video directly attracted Yuichi Fujisawa who was reading on the side.
"Lantern exhibition." He always had a smile on his face, which added a bit of playfulness to this moment, "Do you want to go?" Together, we are in this group? ”
I put down my phone: "No need, the last time Dongshan picked me up and passed over there, I have already seen it." ”
The studio was too far away, and at the beginning of the month, Yuichi Fujisawa gave me a car, and I excused myself from learning to drive, but he didn't insist on it anymore and decided to arrange a driver for me.
"Akiyama is old, and I want him to retire as soon as possible. You can use it for the time being, I can't pick you up all the time, it's always more convenient to have a driver by your side. ”
When he said that, I couldn't say no more.
The mini car he bought for me was in the garage, and he bought me a Bentley of the same model.
I didn't expect the driver to be Tomoyuki Higashiyama, who drove for me when I was a tutor before.
Privately, we talked about it, and he told me, "The last time I mentioned at my house that I needed a driver, Yuyu recommended Higashiyama-kun to me. She also said that appearance is justice. ”
I couldn't hold back my laughter.
"Speaking of which, last time Dongshan-jun was not qualified to be a driver for you, she was promoted." He continued, "Sister Setsuko has already chosen a good candidate, so she is a little dissatisfied, guess what she said to Sister Setsuko? ”
"Huh? What did she say? ”
"Experience is something that comes with the advantage of age, and there will always be one. But the fact that you are good-looking is rare in itself. ”
My brain made up the serious look of Yuha Fujisawa when he said this, and I fell into his arms with a smile.
"Has Sister Setsuko been angry?"
He hugged me: "I don't know what Sister Setsuko's anger has become, but Dongshan shouldn't have a good time at that time." ”
"He's still a newcomer."
Yu Fujisawa nodded.
"I guess it's even worse now." I said, "Then I'll have to take him." It's just that Qinghe Mountain is so far away, and it's not convenient for him to come over. ”
"You don't have to worry about that, ma'am."
Occasionally, Yuichi Fujisawa calls me "Madam". Even though I knew it didn't mean anything, I couldn't help but blush. So I buried my face in his chest under the pretense of changing positions.
My first year of college ended on Christmas Eve, and in order to welcome Christmas at midnight, the department chartered a high-end clubhouse and required all members to participate. I don't have much sense of ritual for holidays like Christmas Eve and Christmas, and it just so happened that Yuichi Fujisawa had a drinking party to attend, so I didn't shirk it.
After all, I have been studying at the Noble Academy, and this is not the first time I have participated in similar group activities, I know all the etiquette routines by heart, and I also know how to be a transparent person quietly.
I asked for a glass of low-alcohol wine, sat down and took small sips. Two unnamed classmates sat down next to me.
"Igarashi-kun isn't here today?"
"She said she was going to meet with the Fujisawa family or something......"
"Who believes her?"
The two girls burst into laughter.
I was silent, got up and left. There were all kinds of high-end clubs, so I found a home theater and ordered an old movie, "Harry Meets Sally".
When the phone rang, I realized it was late.
"Is the party fun?" It's Yuichi Fujisawa.
"Make do with it." I asked, "Is it fun to drink?" ”
"Make do with it."
With that, we fell silent with each other.
"Now, Susu." He whispered, "I'm downstairs." ”
I got up, but my voice was calm. I said, "I'm not done yet." ”
"Come out quietly, I'll be waiting for you at the door." He whispered to me, and hung up.
I pushed the door open and walked briskly out, taking my coat and scarf from the waiter, and I was suddenly anxious to see him as soon as possible. Thinking that the stairs at the door were long, and that I had to run down before he could go up the stairs, I hurried all the way downstairs.
The elegant figure, standing beside the car with a cane, wearing a black coat and red roses on the gown, was something else I had for him before I went out. He was so handsome, and all the light was on him that night.
In full view of everyone, I ran to him, stood still, gasping slightly.
He bent down slightly, and gently tidied up the scarf that I had not had time to put on and which had become messy during the run.
"Is it cold or not? Get in the car, the heating is already ......"
I grabbed him by the sleeve and stood on tiptoe to imprint a kiss on his thin lips.
He drank tonight, and so did I. Pre-dinner fruit wine, slightly sweet wine, and a little sweet wine whose name I don't know. I was a little unsteady on my feet, and he hugged me with strong arms. The air before the snow was condensed, but his arms were so warm.
In front of everyone's eyes, this kiss lingered and long.
Passers-by whistled, and we parted slightly.
He put the tip of his nose against mine: "Take you to a place." ”
I was a little drunk, it was late at night, I didn't know where I was, I didn't know how long the car had been going, and I passed through a short dark section, and the lights on the side of the road slowly turned on.
The branches of the trees on both sides of the winding road are full of cherry pink lights, and they go from dark to bright as the car goes. First the trees on both sides, then many trees in the mountains, thousands of trees, all lit up with cherry pink, as if the cherry blossoms in spring are blooming in clusters, layer upon layer, the lights are scattered, and the floating light is surging.
Fire trees and silver flowers never sleep.
I turned my head to look at Yuichi Fujisawa.
"I read a poem before." He took mine with one free hand, put it to his lips and kissed it gently, and said in Chinese, "The fire tree silver flower is closed, and the iron lock of the star bridge is opened." ”
He turned his head sideways, his eyes full of light: "Although there is no Xingqiao Iron Cable, today is not the fifteenth day of the first lunar month." But I want to give you the whole Qinghe Mountain's fire trees and silver flowers. ”
