CHAPTER XXIII

After class, I went back to my apartment to put my study supplies. The road was a bit congested and I parked on the side of the road. Half an hour ago, Yuichi Fujisawa asked where to wait for me, presumably considering that I was in class, and he used a text message.

Without thinking, I replied directly to him and asked him to wait for me at the intersection of the university and high school.

After waiting for another two or three minutes, he replied with a good word.

The crowd on the road cleared, I put away my phone and followed the crowd back to my apartment.

The door was hidden, and the laughter of the girls leaked through the cracks in the door, and I paused for a few seconds in the doorway, vaguely discerning a few familiar voices.

"Is it really the driver of the Fujisawa family who came to pick you up, and brought the latest fashion from Paris?" - Slightly thicker voice from a girl downstairs, name unknown.

Yuko Igarashi replied, "Of course. ”

"I'm so envious. And what about Yuichi Fujisawa? Is it coming too? "This is my roommate, Yumi Nagasawa.

When I pushed the door in, the atmosphere in the room was a little delicate.

"Ahh There are many luxury ornaments on the tatami mats and several cases, and there are several girls around the tables. Among them, Yumi Nagasawa poked her head out and greeted me in a familiar and affectionate tone.

I nodded, and the eyes of several people were all on me, not noticing that Yuko Igarashi was quietly relieved. Her caution aroused my wicked taste, and I sat down.

Yumi Nagasawa smiled meaningfully: "Look, these are all given to her by Yuko's fiancΓ©." ”

"I just heard some of your conversations." I staggered Yumi Nagasawa's eyes and met Yuko Igarashi, and the smile made me feel a lot more friendly, "The driver of the Fujisawa family came to pick you up, right?" Before...... Many people say that you are not the fiancΓ©e of the young master of the Fujisawa family.

At one point, hearing this, Yuko Igarashi's face was stained with anger, but her dissatisfaction with me was obviously more: "They all say that you are not nosy, so you are also interested in these?" ”

"Hmm......" I turned to Yumi Nagasawa, "Yumi said last time......"

"Yuko!" Yumi Nagasawa interrupted me, "Just mentioned Yuichi Fujisawa, he came to pick you up yesterday?" Did you see him? ”

"......" Yuko Igarashi hesitated slightly, and immediately raised her chin and said in an arrogant tone, "Of course! Youyijun also took me to the Zhinian Shuxi store to pick the latest model. ”

"Isn't it Gao Ding?" A scrawny girl asked. Yuko Igarashi's little face suddenly changed color, and for a moment the expressions on everyone's faces were colorful and ironic, and I withdrew from the embarrassing scene and returned to my room.

Yumi Nagasawa once accused me of being half-hearted with her in some ways, and I agree at this moment.

I don't know how long Yuichi Fujisawa waited, but when I arrived at the designated place, he was sitting in the driver's seat with his eyes closed. I didn't see the driver Akiyama, he came by car.

Remembering the tiredness in his voice last night, I stopped and didn't bother him.

After a few moments, he slowly opened his eyes, his gaze fell on me, and he smiled at me. Then, with his hand raised to unbuckle his seatbelt and understood what he was going to do, I walked over briskly and opened the door. When I sat down, he leaned over and helped me fasten my seatbelt.

Yuichi Fujisawa fastened his seat belt, but he didn't start for a long time.

"Actually, I'm a little angry, Susu." Suddenly, he spoke.

"Huh?" I was stunned, but immediately realized why, "Sorry, I talked to my roommate for a while, so I'm late." ”

"Not this thing." He whispered, "No matter how long it takes, I'm willing to wait for you." He leaned over to me, his voice in his ear, muffled, "It's a little far from the apartment building, are you tired?" ”

Oops, I feel like my brain is starting to mess up again. I shook my head. He looked at me fixedly: "I can wait for you downstairs." We're ...... like this," sighed, "sneaky." "Such grievances," Susu, I can't see the light like this? Well? ”

My chest was pounding, and I looked away.

"No," I said, "......Yuko Igarashi from our department is here, and I don't want her to see it." ”

I mentioned her name on purpose, but I didn't want the phone to vibrate at an inopportune time, it was mine.

"Phone." He reminded me softly.

Missing the opportunity, I took out my phone, it was Kaoru Kaoru, who I hadn't seen for a long time.

"Gui'an, Susu." When connected, there was a lot of laughter.

"Gui'an, Sister Kaoru."

"Long time no see, I don't know if I bothered you?"

"Nope." Of course, I don't tell the truth, "What's the matter?" ”

"Na, that's right," her pronunciation was elegant, and her tone was intimate, "I passed by Gan Chuntang today, and there were not many people, so I bought a Baumkuchen." I wonder if you have time to taste it together? ”

"I'm sorry, but I can't do it today, but I have an appointment today." I say.

She was a little lost: "That's ......"

"Next time." I couldn't help it, so I hurriedly said, "I'll bring you Baumkuchen next time." ”

"Maybe you'll have to wait in line for an hour or two next time." Without waiting for me to say anything, she continued, "Let's go buy it together." ”

"Okay." We said goodbye to each other and closed the line.

I was holding my phone, but I wasn't in the mood to ask Yuichi Fujisawa about Yuko Igarashi again.

"Let's go eat." Yuichi Fujisawa said as he drove the car out of the academy.

The restaurant he chose was built on a hill, and after a few windings around the mountain road, through a row of green bamboos and a small bridge and flowing water, the gray courtyard was finally revealed.

The waiter at the door was dressed in Tang costume and spoke fluent Chinese: "Today, in good weather, a seat has been prepared for you in the forest." Please. ”

So we were led to sit down in the bamboo forest in the backyard.

"Please wait a moment." After he finished speaking, he quietly retreated.

"The rule here is that the chef eats whatever he wants, there is no menu." Yuichi Fujisawa explained to me by wiping his hands with a wet towel on the table.

I nodded.

While speaking, a team of girls in Tang costumes brought the dishes, and the waiters who appeared at the beginning finished the names of the dishes one by one, and then retreated again.

Yuichi Fujisawa poured warm water for me: "I heard that it was the chef from Niel, can you taste it?" ”

The dishes on this table are all served on delicate plates, and the color is excellent. The weather was good, and the people sitting across from each other were pleasing to the eye.

I sat up straight, but I was annoyed that I had gone to the appointment today, and I could neither mature put the matter on the table and deal with him, nor could I cover my ears and steal the bell. The beautiful scenery of the good day, I don't resonate with this good scenery, and I don't fit in.

Can anyone tell me what I should do?

"Susu." On the other side, Yuichi Fujisawa put down the teacup, "Can you tell me what you're thinking?" ”

No. Don't want to. No.

I was silent.

"Huh," he said, smiling helplessly. Got up and grabbed his cane, "I was going to show you when I'm done." You don't have an appetite anyway, so we'll go over now, right? ”

"What?"

"I'll show you something good." He came over and took my hand, "Would you be happy?" ”

He took me to his villa next to the Kamo River. At this time, I could not have imagined that this would be the place where I lived in Kyoto for a few years. I love the soft Italian rug in the living room on the first floor, which I bought at a luxury home store when I got my first salary as an intern that year. There is also the classical piano in the stairwell, and there is a small groove in the leg on the right side of the piano, and one time Yuichi Fujisawa told me that it was hit by him when he was a child, and he didn't know that I had touched the groove many times, as if I could touch him when I was a child. Many times, I like to look out across the Kamo River from the terrace in the early morning, where I have greeted many sunrises, and I have had many good times with Yuichi Fujisawa, whom I love the most in my life.

Yu Fujisawa took me up to the second floor in the elevator, and the thing he wanted to show me was here, a well-equipped sewing room. The latest German-made machines, countless needles and threads, pencils and toners of all colors, and staggered heights of the table exude a new and charming atmosphere in this studio that covers an entire floor.

"In two days at most, the storage room will be renovated." Yuichi Fujisawa placed a key in the palm of my hand, "Do you like it?" Susu. ”

It was the first gift he gave me.

Like, how can you not like it?

I looked up at him, and the sunlight poured into the room through the floor-to-ceiling windows, which opened a small opening, blowing the light gauze curtains, and I could faintly hear the sound of running water on the Kamo River. I looked into his deep eyes for a moment, "I want to know about Yuko Igarashi." ”

He brushed the broken hair on the side of my ear and didn't shy away: "There is indeed such a marriage contract between me and Igarashi. ”

"Are you going to get married?"

"Maybe."

"You...... What do you think of her? ”

"What do I think?" He smiled, the corners of his mouth were a little cruel, "Susu, there will be others without her." ”

This person else can never be me.

What should I go on? For example, what is our relationship? Another example: Are you giving me such a gift to support me? No, no, no, I'm definitely not going to be your lover. And then what? Yuichi Fujisawa and I are also coming to an end.

Before the relationship could officially begin, it was drawn to an early end.

My fingers clenched, the keys in my hands ached, my back straightened, and my teeth clenched. I was so nervous that I was afraid that I would say something inappropriate and bad about failure.

Yuichi Fujisawa, on the other hand, just stared at me calmly, calmer than he had ever known him. Those dark eyes turned into an unfathomable ancient well. At this moment, he exudes a sense of good time.

I understand. He's waiting for me to speak, and whatever I say, he'll be able to resolve it perfectly. And I'm ...... What should I say?

I......

I don't want to fucking say anything!

A rare foul sentence burst out in my heart, and I dropped the key and turned around. I don't remember when I noticed the staircase, and I ran down the carpeted staircase.

your fiancΓ©e! your little lover! your Fujisawa ......

My footsteps stopped at the corner on the first floor.

His name went back and forth in my mind, but I was reluctant to put his name and those indecent words together.

Pride and self-restraint are me, and it makes no sense to be unprincipled, and it is also me.

I wanted to turn back, and then I ran to the elevator, but before I could see the instructions up and down, I heard a soft sound of "ding", and then the elevator door slowly opened towards both ends, and the four eyes met, Fujisawa Yuichi walked towards me quickly, and I threw myself into his arms at a faster speed.

He was caught off guard for a moment, and I threw myself against the door wall, snorting.

Inside the elevator, I was greeted by a familiar light fragrance, and I buried my head in his chest.

The elevator doors behind him slowly closed.

Yuichi Fujisawa's hand landed on my hair and rubbed slowly, and it was his chin that touched the tip of my forehead. He spoke first, and with his low, gentle voice, he sighed helplessly in my ear:

"Susu, you run so fast, I can't catch up with you." He carefully kissed me on the center of my brow, "You're the only one, Susu, I promise you." ”

I don't think I have anything more to ask for.
