Because of a few chats in the bookstore and tinkering with social software for a while, I delayed a lot of time. So by the time Qiu Yang arrived home by tram, it was already past eight o'clock at night, and he didn't have time to eat anything, but just got off the tram and bought two rice balls at a nearby convenience store.

Walking to the door of the apartment, he was hungry and just wanted to hurry in for dinner.

Passing by the door of the neighbor's house, Qiu Yang remembered the encounter from last night to this morning, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth again.

Today's wind is inexplicably strong, and it has already brought some chill of autumn nights, so he didn't stop outside the door much, tightened his coat and entered the door.

Almost as soon as the door was closed, the person was still standing in the hallway, taking off his shoes and cleaning up, when suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Who?"

"It's me, next door." There was a small response from outside the door, as if it was going to disappear if it didn't open the door again.

"Who's next door?" Qiu Yang suddenly got playful and wanted to tease her, so he asked knowingly.

"It's me! Saito! Open the door! ”

Just listening to the voice, you can imagine the girl's puffed little face, and when she opened the door, she looked slightly annoyed.

"Ah, it's Saito-san, thank you so much this morning, I really didn't be seen." Although Qiu Yang was a little happy about the girl's visit, he also felt a little inexplicable, so he subconsciously greeted politely. "It's so late, what's the matter with Saito-san?"

"There's nothing special, but didn't you bring a gift this morning? I'm going to give you something back. After that, I was afraid that my statement was a little abrupt, so I specially added, "This is also neon hospitality, you just came here, you may not be familiar with it!" ”

Although Qiu Yang felt a little strange, as Saito said, it was better to accept this return gift if he followed the local customs.

"It's just that this girl is empty-handed, so can't she give her to me? Pledge in person? I don't mind. Qiu Yang couldn't help but think evilly, and was also a little curious about what kind of gift he would receive.

"Well, you haven't had dinner yet, I've prepared some simple meals, and I'd like to invite you to my house for dinner, okay?"

- Huh? Dine? Did you prepare? Go to your house??

Qiu Yang's brain was a little down.

Perhaps she was not used to such initiative, and was a little too shy, the girl stammered a simple invitation, and hurriedly added: "This is also neon hospitality!" If you don't come, you won't give me face! ”

"Grunt..." Qiu Yang's stomach rang at the right time, but it broke some of the awkward silence. Both burst out laughing.

- It's true that he's hungry, not to mention that he already has a little heart for the girl, so he readily agrees.

"Then I'll be respectful and obey my fate, trouble Saito-san."

It wasn't until the other party agreed and followed him into the entrance of his house that Asuka Saito realized how crazy what he was doing.

"Smack!" She slapped herself on the cheek twice and muttered to herself. "What am I doing?"

Everything has to start this morning, after Qiu Yang left.

Unwrapping the gift bag from the new neighbor, one is a rather delicate-looking teapot and the other is a cute lamb doll. A postcard is also attached:

"Since I didn't know your gender and age beforehand, I chose these two gifts. The teapot is a specialty of my hometown, and the lamb doll is because my Chinese name is the same as 'sheep', and it is often said that my personality is gentle like a sheep. With these two gifts to you, there's always one you like – I prepared it with that in mind, and I hope you enjoy it. Qiu Yang. ”

The postcard is handwritten, and the handwriting is as beautiful as a neon local high school girl, which makes Saito Asuka feel more favorable.

"He's really a very sincere person."

Moreover, she suddenly recalled the question Qiu Yang asked just now, he really didn't seem to know his identity, eh? Linked to Yoda-chan's complaint last night, it seems that it is normal for international students from Huaxia not to know Nogizaka, and it makes her convinced that Qiu Yang really doesn't know the identity of her idol.

In this way, maybe you don't have to move? Just make an ordinary friend?

Asuka Saito was selfish and planned to hide his identity like this.

The problem of identity is solved, and then another mystery remains-

"Yoda-chan! I ask you, did you leave me at the door yesterday and leave? Asuka Saito crackled on the screen and sent a message to Yuki Yoda.

He Tian Yuxi, who had just participated in a stage recording, suddenly received a message from his predecessor in the lounge, and thought that he was coming to Xingshi to ask her for being irresponsible last night, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly replied:

"Wronged, Asuka-chan! Last night you said you were going to sober up outside the door! Yoda, I can only leave you at the door and leave, and you don't want to give me the key! ”

And sure enough... This is a real hammer, and last night it was probably this new neighbor who helped him enter the house. Thinking that he was obviously helped by him, but he slapped him inexplicably, but today, regardless of his previous suspicions, he specially came to the door to send such a sincere gift, and Saito Asuka felt even more guilty.

- If she remembered that Qiu Yang had brought her princess in the door last night, he didn't feel that he had suffered at all, and Asuka Saito probably wouldn't feel guilty.

Especially after discovering that Qiu Yang didn't know his identity, Saito Asuka thought that the mode of interaction with him should be the same as that of socializing with peers in society, and he did such a rude thing, and he should indeed apologize or even compensate. Now that you have decided to make friends with him, the first impression is probably irreparable, at least the second impression has to work hard.

Thinking like this, she decided to just ask her juniors what their opinions were.

"Eh, Yoda-chan, let me ask you, if someone helped you, but you accidentally did something sorry for him, how would you apologize."

Yoda on the other end saw this endless question, and there was another question mark: Why does Saito's predecessor always think like this? But fortunately, she was not angry with herself, so she replied casually:

"Is that person a friend of Asuka? If it's a friend, just apologize and explain it on Line, right? ”

"Hmm... It doesn't seem to be a friend's words.,It's just a person who has accepted kindness from a one-sided friend.。 ”

"If it's not very familiar, why don't you have a meal together?" When he and Tian Yuxi typed this line, they basically acquiesced in their hearts that the "benefactor" mentioned by Asuka's predecessors was also a girl - after all, Asuka's predecessors almost never had heterosexual interactions. Then he followed up: "But Asuka-chan, you just said that you inadvertently hurt her, or do you want to cook some food yourself?" It's been nearly a year since Azuka-chan practiced her cooking skills! ”

"Do you cook it yourself..."Asuka Saito was a little dizzy, she didn't know much about human feelings or anything, but it did sound very sincere! Maybe that boy will be able to forgive himself?

So in the evening, she really prepared some side dishes carefully for the recipe, and specially checked the tastes that Chinese people love to eat. I just waited left and right, and I didn't hear the sound of my neighbor coming back in the corridor. Asuka Saito felt that he was taking it for granted, what if he came back after dinner outside? But he was a little unwilling, and he starved until eight o'clock, and then he looked forward to Qiu Yang's return.

I suddenly feel like a housewife who is looking forward to her husband's return... As soon as such an idea appeared, it startled Asuka Saito and made himself blush.

Qiu Yang, who didn't know so much of the above background story, stood in the hallway, looking at the tips of the red ears of Asuka Saito, who had his back to him, and couldn't help but get nervous, and quietly sent a message to the new friend he met today for help:

"Hashimoto-san, there's a cultural question that I need to ask you about - what does it usually mean for a neon girl to invite you to her house for dinner......?"
