Chapter 361: Ambition
"What a beautiful bracelet."
Kikyo touches the bracelet she just gotten, and even though she is not familiar with it, she thinks it should be an expensive piece of jewelry.
Kikyo usually doesn't even have a hobby of makeup, she has always been a simple witch, and she has never had the habit of wearing jewelry, but under the enthusiasm of Xia Ruo's mother, she still wore the jade bracelet on her hand.
She thought about it, and when she left, she would return it to Xia Ruo and ask him to go back.
"It's good if you like it," Xia Ruo's mother looked at Kikyo with a kind gaze, as if she was looking at her own daughter.
The more I look at it, the more satisfied I become, such a beautiful and temperamental little girl, even if she has nothing to do with Xiaoruo, she is very pleasing, if only she had such a daughter.
Pull it out, no matter where you go, it's a lot of face.
Kikyo was a little embarrassed to be stared at, and the pressure on the elders was getting a little bigger.
"By the way, Xiaoju, what do you think of our Xiaoruo?" Xia Ruo's mother continued to look at Kikyo and asked.
"This ......"
Kikyo is not stupid, even if she didn't think about it at first, but slowly, the other party said it so obviously, she also found that Xia Ruo's mother seemed to be matching herself and Xia Ruo.
After all, he and Xia Ruo are very close in age, and it is understandable for the elders to do this.
After noticing this, Kikyo was a little overwhelmed, and it was the first time she had encountered this situation, as if she had come to meet her parents.
Himself and Xia Ruo? How is this possible.
Kikyo wanted to open his mouth to explain that it was impossible for him and Xia Ruo, but it was difficult to say it so bluntly, so he was silent and didn't say anything.
He no longer answered Xia Ruo's mother's questions, and there was such a strange atmosphere in the living room.
What do you think of Xia Ruo?
Kikyo suddenly had such a thought popping into his mind.
Match yourself and Xia Ruo?
"I and Xia Ruo should be good friends."
Kikyo frowned, she had never thought of this kind of thing before, but because of Xia Ruo's mother's reminder, Kikyo suddenly recalled the past when she was with Xia Ruo.
The past scenes were recalled, and Kikyo began to use his own perspective to review what kind of person Xia Ruo was.
How so?
It seems like...... I haven't been with Xia Ruo for a long time, and I haven't known each other for long, but when I get along, those memories are quite warm, and in the daily life of demon eradication, some interesting memories are all brought to him by Xia Ruo.
Xia Ruo is a very interesting person.
With Xia Ruo, it was like a mission on his back, and it was not so heavy.
He used to eat barbecue with Xia Ruo, eat hot pot together, and bring a lot of delicious things, so that the daily life of demon removal is more embellishment, even if his body is full of the bloody smell of monsters, he will not have any disgust.
and Xia Ruo likes to take out his guitar instrument and sing to himself, Xia Ruo's voice is very good, the singing is very good, and the lyrics are also very good, 'Thoughts through time and space', this is Xia Ruo's favorite song to sing.
Xia Ruo also likes to pull himself to admire the moon, although he doesn't know what the meaning of moon viewing is, but the bellflower still follows it, and when he admires the moon by himself, Xia Ruo seems to be very happy.
Xia Ruo also came over from time to time to tell stories to Kaede and bring some gifts, and when he was not at home, Xia Ruo would also take care of Kaede.
Xia Ruo's strength is also very good, ordinary little monsters, Xia Ruo can easily solve them, with him at home, he is very relieved, Feng also likes him very much, after Xia Ruo left, Feng would often catch himself and ask, 'When will Xia Ruo's brother come again'.
After the demon removal is over, Xia Ruo will also prepare a meal in the dilapidated shrine where he lives, and say to himself who has returned from the demon removal with a gentle smile, 'Welcome home'.
At that moment, I was really touched.
I even thought about it, usually there are only two people in the family, myself and Kaede, and it is also a good idea to have a man in the family, of course, it is a momentary thought.
It's just that......
"By the way, why did Xia do so many things to me?"
……
A strange thought suddenly appeared in Kikyo's mind.
Why do so much to yourself, and for no reason, without expecting anything in return?
Do you simply want to do good? Is that really the case? It's more dangerous to stay with yourself, isn't it? In the past, when he was with Xia Ruo, Kikyo didn't think about it, but now that he thinks about it, there are still some doubts in it.
What is Xia Ruo always looking for herself?
Kikyo has seen a lot of people, everyone has their own ambitions, and they are moving forward for their own purposes, like Xia Ruo, there are very few people who have no purpose and no return, and no purpose.
However, Kikyo's intuition tells her that Natsuruo is not the kind of person who has no purpose, and that he has his own ambitions.
What is Xia Ruo's ambition?
Once Kikyo also doubted that Xia Ruo would come for the Jade of the Four Souls, but after observation, Kikyo did not find out that Xia Ruo was greedy for the Jade of the Four Souls, and even had a disdainful attitude towards the Jade of the Four Souls, everything he did was sincere, and this point, Kikyo would not be wrong.
At that time, after realizing that Xia Ruo was not for the Jade of the Four Souls, Kikyo did not suspect Xia Ruo anymore.
In Kikyo's opinion, there is nothing more important than the jade of the four souls, Xia Ruo can't even look down on the jade of the four souls, what else can attract him?
But now that he thinks about it, Xia Ruo's purpose is not the Jade of the Four Souls, but something else.
Compared to the Jade of the Four Souls, what is more important in Xia Ruo's eyes is that his ambition is......
"Me."
Thump.
Kikyo's heart beat suddenly, and Kikyo, whose expression had been unwavering, unexpectedly showed a surprised expression.
……
Kikyo looked in the direction of the kitchen with some surprise.
If it weren't for this reason, Xia Ruo wouldn't have had to do it, everything that seemed meaningless before Kikyo would now suddenly become meaningful.
Everything Xia Ruo did before, looking for herself to admire the moon and sing, isn't it the pursuit of girls? It's just that in the Warring States Period, Xia Ruo's pursuit method was a little too moisturizing and silent, so that he was so dull that he didn't notice it.
And this invitation, I also hope that I can come.
Is it me who you want more than the Jade of the Four Souls?
Kikyo didn't know what the expression on her face was at this time, she had always thought that Xia Ruo was a friend, but she didn't expect that Xia Ruo still had such thoughts.
Although she saw through Xia Ruo's ambition, it was strange that Kikyo did not have a trace of disgust, and she even felt that her face was a little hot.
At this moment, a strong fragrance reached Kikyo's nose, this fragrance was something she had never smelled before, just smelling the fragrance, Kikyo felt that her saliva was constantly secreting.
Kikyo immediately thought of Xia Ruo, who was cooking in the kitchen.
Thinking of this, she was a little surprised, Xia Ruo's cooking skills were so good, and she could smell such an attractive fragrance from such a distance.
The fragrance arrived first, and Xia Ruo's voice came.
"It's time to eat!"
Immediately afterwards, Xia Ruo wore an apron and walked out of the kitchen.
……
Xia Ruo and Xia Meng brought the prepared dishes to the table.
Xia Ruo's dishes are just simple home-cooked dishes, mapo tofu, shredded pork with green peppers, kung pao chicken and the like.
After all, what he learned in Ju downstairs was home-cooked food, and he was the most proficient in making it, and Xia Ruo had not done it yet.
But even if it is a simple home-cooked dish, with the addition of Xia Ruo's cooking skills, it is already extraordinary, and its elegant fragrance can be smelled by people in the living room even if the door is closed in the kitchen.
"Is this what you did Xia Ruo? It smells so good. ”
Kikyo swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked, usually looking at Xia Ruo's appearance, he doesn't look like a powerful cooking master at all, this time he came to Xia Ruo's house, but he didn't expect to see such a side.
Xia Ruo was wearing an apron, looking very homely, I really don't know what else he would do.
The dishes on the table are all authentic Chinese dishes, in the eyes of the bellflower, these dishes seem to be a little different from the normal dishes, and they seem to exude a faint light, this strange scene, or the first time the bellflower has seen it, I can't help but be a little curious.
"I didn't do it, who else can there be here," Xia Ruo looked at Kikyo's surprised expression, a little funny, since Kikyo left the Warring States Period, the expression on his face has increased, which is a good phenomenon.
Kikyo couldn't resist the temptation of the aroma of the food, so he picked up a piece of mapo tofu with chopsticks and gently bit it.
The crystal tofu melts in your mouth, and the moment you eat it, it seems that there is a volcano that erupts in Kikyo's mind, and a feeling of happiness surrounds Kikyo's body.
As if there is no better thing in the world than this, eating food can bring a feeling of happiness.
Xia Ruo's mother also noticed Kikyo's expression, and was a little proud, "Our Xiaoruo's cooking skills are good, there are really few men like him who are good at cooking, Xiaoju should take advantage of it." ”
Kikyo was a little embarrassed when he heard such a straightforward word.
That's the kind of thing she's not good at dealing with.
Xia Ruo couldn't help but interrupt when she heard her mother's words, "Mom, I said it all, I'm just friends with Kikyo, don't talk nonsense." ”
Xia Ruo's mother glanced at her son, "Okay, okay, I won't talk about it, it's time to eat." ”
After being relieved by Xia Ruo, Kikyo breathed a sigh of relief, it was indeed a little embarrassing just now, but fortunately, the dishes were really delicious, and Kikyo's chopsticks were also fast, and it didn't take long for the dishes on the table to be eaten up, and Kikyo also felt full.
Food really has a unique charm, and the glowing cuisine is even more so, and after eating, the sense of happiness will not fade, this wonderful feeling, once experienced, I want to eat like this for the rest of my life.
When you think of such a delicacy, you may never be able to eat it again in the future, and you will unconsciously feel a sense of loss.
What should I do if I can't eat it in the future?
Kikyo glanced up at Xia Ruo, and she suddenly felt that what Xia Ruo's mother said was indeed very reasonable.
……
After lunch, Xia Ruo went to clean up the kitchenware and wash the dishes, while Xia Meng and her mother took the bellflower out shopping, saying that they were buying some daily necessities and clothes for the bellflower.
After all, Kikyo still has to live for a while.
Xia Ruo originally had some questions that he wanted to ask Kikyo, but he couldn't find the opportunity to talk to Kikyo alone.
However, he could see that Kikyo didn't want to go shopping, but because it was inconvenient to refuse, he was pulled over.
Faced with this situation, Xia Ruo could only sigh.
"Forget it, Kikyo isn't very familiar with modern life anyway, so let her have a good time, after all, she used to work so hard and didn't have a good time."
Although his mother is not very reliable, Xia Ruo still trusts his sister, and Xia Meng will definitely not let the bellflower be boring.
So after Xia Ruo cleaned up the kitchenware, he left the house first, went to see the preparation activities of MW, and went to see if there was anything missing.
After taking a look at the preparations for the event, when Xia Ruo came back, it was already more than eight o'clock in the evening.
However, Xia Ruo pushed open the door, but unexpectedly found that only Kikyo was sitting on the sofa watching TV in the living room.
At this time, Kikyo was wearing pink cartoon pajamas, which may have been bought for her by Xia Meng, and a holy witch like Kikyo was wearing such cartoon pajamas, which was unexpectedly a little cute.
It was a costume movie on TV, and Kikyo looked at it with relish.
Kikyo seemed to have just taken a shower, and his long black hair was draped down, and when he saw Xia Ruo come in, he just glanced at him lightly, and then put his eyes on the TV again.
"Why are you here alone?" Xia Ruo looked at the lone bellflower and asked.
"They're all going to bed, Auntie told me to wait for you here," Kikyo replied in a flat tone.
"Sleep? Sleep so early? ”
Xia Ruo frowned, he keenly felt that after he came back, it seemed that there was a faint sound in his mother's room, and the door seemed to open a crack.
“?”
At this time, the costume drama on TV just ended and entered the ending song, and Kikyo saw that the episode was over, so he picked up the remote control and started to change the channel.
Its proficient appearance seems to watch TV a lot.
Kikyo looked a little cute watching TV seriously, Xia Ruo wanted to ask her why she came so early, but she was a little embarrassed to disturb her, so she did it on the sofa on the other side and watched TV with her.
After Kikyo glanced at Xia Ruo, he didn't care about him anymore.
At this time, on the TV at Xia Ruo's house, a white-haired boy with red clothes and animal ears appeared.
"Inuyasha! Sit down! ”
“……”
When did Inuyasha air on TV?
The moment Xia Ruo saw "Inuyasha", he was stunned for a second, and the next moment, he disappeared in place and appeared directly in front of Kikyo, blocking Kikyo's sight.
A person suddenly appeared in front of him, and Kikyo was startled.
She completely forgot what she had just seen on TV, and just looked at Xia Ruo who suddenly appeared in front of her suspiciously.
What is this for?
