"Ah, you're awake!" It's a girl's voice.

I don't know how long I slept, but I opened my eyes again.

"Ah...... Where is this? "I was supporting my body with my arms and trying to stand up slowly.

A hand gently placed on my body and lifted me up.

"Great......" she said, sobbing, "you're scared the hell out of me, it's okay, it's okay......

I gradually remembered that before, it seemed to be a huge wave that slammed me to the ground.

"What just happened?" I asked, supporting my senseless body with my arms, kneeling on the ground.

"Just ......"

I raised my hand and scratched my head.

"Ah, it hurts—"

"Don't touch there!" She just spoke, but she couldn't stop me.

This sudden burst of pain reminded me that I had just lost a lot of blood.

"What happened to me?" I stood up by her strength.

"Leave this alone," she leaned over to help me, "You're fine!" ”

Overhead, there is a bright starry sky, and the faint starlight is sprinkled on the water, as if you are in a fantasy world.

"What's your name?"

I turned my head to ask her, but I didn't know why, even though there was only a faint starlight, every time I cast my eyes on her face, my eyes would be obscured by the blinding bright light, and I couldn't see anything clearly.

"What's my name," she paused, "don't you know yet?" ”

“……”

What's your name, how do I know......

"Alright, let's find a way to get out of this place!"

With her support, we walked towards the endless starry sky ahead......

It was my phone ringing that pulled me back into the real world.

"Hey ......"

I opened my sleepy eyes, fuzzled my phone on a stool next to me, and asked reluctantly.

"When are you stinky boy coming?"

Directly on the phone, Yirui's angry scolding voice came from the phone.

"Ahh

I looked around and realized that I was still in the bathtub, and the water around me had become icy. When I took my phone in front of me and took a closer look, I had been soaking in the water for almost fifty minutes.

"Come soon," she softened slightly, "and if you don't come here, the food will be cold!" ”

"Got it, got it, I'll be right away, I'll be right away......"

Unconsciously, I fell asleep, soaked in the cold water for a long time, my limbs were numb, and I just wanted to stand up, but I almost fell into the bathtub without strength.

"Son, blow dry your hair first!" Mom stopped me.

"It's too late, it's too late! Why didn't you call me just now! ”

"Didn't you say you'd pay attention to it yourself! Your mother and I have my own business......"

Really, it didn't come out for fifty minutes, Mom, don't you suspect anything?

"Let's go, I'll see you later!" With that, I rushed out the door.

"Hey, do you think you're going too far?"

Wearing an apron, Yirui leaned against the wall and questioned me.

In the face of Yirui's overwhelming questioning, I could only stand at the door, smiled embarrassedly, and replied, "I took a bath today, and I fell asleep while soaking...... Hey, hey, hey......"

"Really...... How long can you soak in a bath? ”

"Really, I knew I would have taken a picture of you before I came over."

"Okay, okay, hurry up and wash your hands and eat!"

She carried a strangely shaped bowl from the kitchen that I had never seen anywhere before, with a large bowl-like hood fastened to it.

"What is this?" I wiped my wet hands on my clothes.

"Roast chicken!" She brought the plate to the table and put it down, "As soon as I got home today, I started making it, and it took me a lot of effort!" ”

She wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead with her hand and said with a sense of accomplishment.

"Ah," I couldn't believe it, "roast chicken? Would you really do this yourself? ”

"You don't believe me...... I learned it from a certain sound before, and I think it's quite simple, so I've always wanted to try it for you! ”

"If it's not tasty and your stomach hurts, then you have to be responsible."

"Why don't you say something like this before you have tasted it......" she said as she poked me in the cheek and pouted.

She lifted the cover, set it aside, and continued, "It may be a little salty, or a little light, but in short, you will just eat it." ”

Since it was Yirui's first time trying to make roast chicken, I reluctantly gave it a try!

"How?"

She asked expectantly as she took a knife to help me cut open and put it on my plate.

"Wow, it's so fresh outside!" As I chewed, I commented on my feelings in real time, "Hmm...... Inside, there seems to be a part of it that doesn't taste good, and the taste is a little lighter. ”

"Ah......" she looked a little lost, "maybe my pickling time is too short, and the taste hasn't fully entered it......"

"Overall, it's pretty good, two-thirds of the chicken is already full of color, flavor and flavor, and you can score eight out of ten!"

This time, I didn't deliberately brag, and my exclamation was also from the heart. It may be that I haven't eaten roast chicken for a long time, but the first time I've made a roast chicken that is not very mature, I actually think it's so delicious.

"Eh, really?" Her eyes widened suddenly, "That's good, that's good......"

I looked up at her, wiped the oil from my mouth, and said, "Don't look at me, you can eat with me!" Come on! ”

"Uh-huh, I'll try my craft for myself!"

As she spoke, she put a piece into her mouth and savored it.

"Well, it's so light......," she said as she chewed, "how can you say that it's not bad, how do I feel that the taste is so light, from the outside to the inside, it's so light!" ”

I grabbed the chicken leg and replied, "Hmph, how can a young lady like you, who used to eat and drink spicy food every day, appreciate the deliciousness in it?" ”

"Don't say that......"

"Then again, you've always treated me like this, do your mom and dad know about it?"

She was stunned for a moment and replied, "I don't know." Don't mention them! ”

"Huh?"

"Don't talk about them in the future......"

She frowned as she spoke.

"You can't go on like this!" I said, "Looks like you really hate them, you hate your own mom and dad." ”

"You're so annoying......"

I continued: "Can you explain to me why you have such a look on your face every time I talk about your parents? ”

"You won't understand ...... if you say it"

"Except for what you said before, they always use going out to work as an excuse and can't accompany you. Your parents have not treated you badly in terms of clothing, food, shelter, or transportation! ”

"You don't understand anything at all......"

She lowered her head, closed her eyes, and slowly opened them again. She suddenly raised her voice, and I was a little overwhelmed for a moment.

"They say they want to go out to work, they can't accompany me, they always leave me alone at home or something, I can understand," her voice became heavy, "but you don't understand anything, all they really care about is themselves!" ”

“……”

All of a sudden, the atmosphere became awkward—Eri-san looked angry.

"Growing up, they saw that any of the children of relatives and friends had a skill, and they wanted me to learn those skills as well. People can play the piano, so let me learn the piano; If people dance well, they will enroll me in a class to learn to dance; If people study well, they will enroll me in cram schools. Did they consider my feelings?!"

"Aren't all parents like this now? If you don't, your child will be one step behind others. ”

As soon as I finished speaking, I realized that I had said something I shouldn't have said, and I wanted to turn back the clock and stuff it back into my stomach.

"They just let me learn that, to go to the competition, to win the prize, and then to give myself some face. What if I can't learn well...... immediately changed classes for me to study, and immediately threw away the original books and equipment; If you study well, you will take me to show off everywhere in front of others, and if you don't study well, you will beat me and scold me......"

"Eri ......"

I just opened my mouth to comfort her, but I didn't expect her to immediately regain the right to speak.

"When I graduated from junior high school, they said that they had signed the company's headquarters to a foreign country and wanted to take me there to study art in a better place......"

"Huh?"

"So, why they don't have time to accompany me, I lied to you."

"Lie to me?"

As she spoke, her eyes were already soaked with tears, and she kept wiping her eyes with her hands to keep them from falling.

"So, I stayed here alone just to do what I wanted to do......"

Before I knew it, I began to feel that my nose was sour, and my heart was very unpleasant.

"Eri...... Don't be sad. ”

"Ah," she looked up at me, "I'm sorry, I can't help myself." ”

I didn't know what to say, so I pulled two tissues from the side and handed them to her.

"Well, thank you," she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "accidentally, I showed you a side that you never showed before......"

"Yirui, it's okay. Anything you can tell me......"

"Shame on the dead," she tossed the tissue into the trash, "Hurry up, hurry up and eat......"

I looked into her wet eyes and responded, "Oh, you should hurry up and eat too." ”

"Hey, I'm losing my temper with you......" she muttered.

"It's okay."

"Forget about it, did you hear it?" She said to me a little stubbornly while holding me the food.

"Alright, alright......"

"Well, you're starting to get proficient too!"

She was wiping the table and watching me clean up my plate, she said.

"Practice makes perfect."

"Finally not so clumsy anymore."

I've always thought about helping Yirui with some housework or something, just like helping her mother do some housework from time to time at home. Therefore, since the first time I helped Yirui clean up the dishes and chopsticks and caused water everywhere in the kitchen, I have kept trying, practicing in my own home and at Yirui's classmates, and finally I have done a decent job.

"I'm inspired to be a good family man!"

"Haha, yes," she chuckled, "and I'm looking forward to seeing you in the future!" ”

"However, it may take a little time......"

She unbuttoned her apron and hung it on the kitchen wall, then took two tissues and wiped her hands.

"Let's go down for a walk."

It's already half past six in the evening, and it's completely dark, so I don't know why Yirui said that she was going for a walk at this time.

"Walking?"

"You've never been around our neighborhood!"

"Also to ......"

"The flower bed downstairs is already full of fallen leaves, just right, you show me the 'supernatural ability evolution version' from last time!"

During this time, I have been busy coping with the selection exam, and I almost forgot about the fact that I had discovered the "Evolution of Supernatural Abilities" before, and last time I kept saying that I was going to find a chance to show it to Yirui, but then I have not been able to succeed.

"Well, don't freak out then."

The mechanism that triggers the "Evolution of Supernatural Abilities" is the gold leaf, because ordinary people can't see or touch this gold leaf, so I've been carrying it in my pocket casually, not afraid of being discovered or stolen.

"We'll be back at seven o'clock, and we'll finally finish the exam, and when I'm done taking a shower, let's have fun together for a while!"

"Also, it's been a long time since we've played games together."

I haven't visited the flowerbed downstairs of Yirui's fellow scholar before, after all, it is a flowerbed in a high-end community, and the selection and layout of vegetation have a rather elegant atmosphere. But what puzzles me is why the leaves that have fallen before are piled up in the garden in such an upscale community!

"Come here, don't be seen by passers-by!"

Yirui-san waved me over from a dark corner.

I looked around to make sure there were no pedestrians for a while, and then said, "No one, so I'll start!" ”

I rubbed my hands together and took the gold leaf out of my pocket.

"It's so bright!"

Yirui-san is probably the second person besides me to be able to see this gold leaf.

"Then I'll get started!"

I held the gold leaf tightly in the palm of my left hand. Although I hadn't operated this golden leaf for many days, this set of movements was as skillful as if it were an innate act, and it hardly required me to recall it to complete it smoothly.

"Ahhh ”

"It's okay, I'm not going to attack, these leaves won't hurt anyone."

After hearing this, Yirui-san approached my protective shield.

"You can lean over and feel it!"

She leaned in to take a closer look, and exclaimed:

"The leaves are actually spinning around you at high speed! Also, your body is floating in mid-air! ”

"Well, can you go find some stones?"

She then picked up a few pebbles from the ground, held them in her hands, and asked, "What do you want them for?" ”

"Smash me! Smash it my head! ”

"Hit you? You're crazy! ”

"These leaves are my protective cover! Feel free to throw it over. ”

She took a few steps back, came for a run, and quickly threw a few pebbles at my head.

"Be careful—"

Originally, I wasn't scared, but I was frightened by Yirui's "Be careful-" and shrank my head back.

"Smack!" The stone was blocked by the high-speed spinning blades, and fell to the ground as if it had lost its soul.

"Wow!" She exclaimed.

I let go of my left hand, let myself fall back to the ground, and said, "Well, it's pretty good!" ”

"Awesome is awesome, but you can only defend and not attack......"

"Who said you can't attack," I immediately retorted, "it's just not convenient and inappropriate for you to show offensive." ”

"Yes to ......," she clapped with her little hand, "Quite amazing! ”

"Hahaha-"

"In this way, Zhang Yan and the others will come to you to do things in the future, and you can protect yourself!"

"Not only protect myself," I replied proudly, "but you!" ”

"Hmm." She smiled with relief and responded.

"Then we're almost going back."

"Since you're here, you can help us clean up these leaves in the community to a pile on the side, okay?"

She said with a wicked grin.

"Surely, my supernatural abilities have only been used for work so far?"

However, using the supernatural power of this golden leaf to move these blades was much easier than using my hands to control them directly, and now the blades seemed to be spinning around me on their own, without the need for any more effort on my own. So, I quickly piled up all the fallen leaves in a flower bed.

"Pretty useful skill...... she muttered as she spoke.

"Please, I'm not here to do this work for you!"

"Haha," she said, smiling, covering her mouth, "well, then, let's go back now!" ”

"You go to my room first and turn on the screen and console! I'll blow my hair and come over. ”

This is the second time I've played games with her, and it's the second time I've ever touched a console.

"Which button to press?"

"Please, have you read a book too! Look at the sign for yourself! ”

When the button was pressed, a screen immediately appeared on the screen. A password is required to log in to my account, so I started wandering around the room. I have to say that I am really lucky to have the opportunity to step into the room of the girls in my class in the seventeenth year of my life. Those unlucky guys in the class, let alone stepping into Yirui's room, have to do everything they can to talk to her, and their heads are going to explode, and they can't find any chance to get close to her.

"Sure enough, there are so many books." I cast my gaze to the bookshelf to the side.

"Don't open my closet secretly!" Yirui shouted in the bathroom.

"Got it."

I'm not so bored, I thought to myself.

There are two tall bookshelves next to Yirui's desk, one full of all kinds of books: from China, from abroad, with a certain age, or new books that have been particularly popular in recent years, it is possible to find a figure on this shelf. There is also a bookshelf for visiting all kinds of miscellaneous items: dolls, figurines, a metal sword, and ...... A wide range of award certificates and medals.

In 2009, the first prize of piano province; In 2010, the first prize of piano province ......"

I looked at the dazzling array of awards, and involuntarily picked up a gold medal and held it in my hand to observe it carefully.

"Yujie, I've kept you waiting!" Yirui suddenly opened the door and walked in.

"Don't don't don'......" I hurriedly put the medal back in its original position, "it's okay, nothing happened!" ”

"Well, you've seen it! How, do you think I'm amazing? ”

"Also, it's pretty powerful...... "Of course, this comes from the heart.

I really don't understand, Yirui is so accomplished in piano, why should she be so angry when she mentioned the matter of learning piano and dance in the past?

"Hey, really, you are not allowed to look at other people's things without the consent of others in the future!"

Before I knew it, she was standing in front of me.

"I said, Yujie ......"

I didn't come back to my senses at once, and hurriedly apologized to her: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry ......"

As if she had a familiar look, she stepped up and hugged me gently.

"What is this for? Huh? ”

Now, she's wearing loose pajamas, which makes me feel completely different from what I used to be at school. The fragrance from her was all around me, and for a while, I felt an indescribable wonderful feeling.

Once again, I became overwhelmed.

"I promised you last time, I did well in the selection exam, and I will reward you with a hug."

She slowly let go of me and turned away playfully.

"Elective, haven't the results of the elective exam come out yet! Who said that I must do well in the exam! You ......"

"Then take it as compensation for my tantrum with you just now!"

"Ah, this ......"

"Come here!" "Depend on ...... Eri. ”

"Huh?" She turned.

"I said, this ...... "I stutter every time I am suddenly done something strange by Yirui-san, "in the future, embrace this kind of thing, and leave it to your boyfriend to do it together...... Don't hug me at every turn, it's embarrassing ......"

"Oh, okay. Then don't regret it~"

She handed me a handle, then jumped on the bed and wrapped herself in the quilt.

"Don't say much, let's have a good time tonight!"

"Don't be too late, we have an appointment to go to the garden tomorrow morning, don't forget!"

"Don't worry, you can't forget it!" She writhed under the covers.

Well, while the results of the selection have not yet been announced, let's have a good time with Yirui today!
