It was as if he had seen through the mystery of his heart.

The words, which were sharper than the sword, pierced Ji Yuehua's heart with a sharp shot, making him unconsciously lower his head.

yes.

In the end, it is always a small fight that can save the day, and it cannot be called a setback.

Although he has put in more than ten times more effort than ordinary people, and has indeed exercised the ability to be independent, he has not tried the real painful lesson.

That's why he collapsed after causing Tachibana Yukino to lose his legs, and it took so long to get back on his feet.

has no face to face those former senior friends, and doesn't want them to see his down-and-out appearance, which is naturally an important reason for him to stay away from them.

However, what about the two righteous sisters and Bayi Yonglin?

For the three people who accompanied him to grow up, and played the role of "guide" to a certain extent throughout his childhood and even adolescence, he has long been accustomed to seeing him make mistakes and go out of his way.

Why, then, did he try to escape from the three closest ones during those days?

Perhaps, even he himself did not notice.

As an extension of the guilt psychology that destroyed Tachibana Yukino's life.

As long as you actively disappear from their lives, you will be able to protect them from your own hands...... Such negative thoughts have always existed in his heart.

No one looks down on himself more than he does.

There is no one who can forgive himself more than him.

It is under such negative psychology that he proposes that kind of self-destructive deal to Congress.

After five years of wandering, he saw his own value clearly, and finally was able to face his life head-on. However, it turned out that all this was in the hands of the seniors, and there was never escape from their expectations. This is especially true when it comes to Yumetoki Okazaki, who is known for his resourcefulness.

Perhaps, for these seniors, he is just a child who has just learned to walk......

Because it is a fact, there is nothing that can be denied. Ji Yuehua bowed slightly.

"I'm ashamed. It took me five years to get back on my feet. If Teacher Long Fei and Old Man Zuo had knowledge, they would definitely laugh at me for being useless, right?"

"Is that really going to be the case? I think that it took longer than others to stand up because your heart is more gentle than others, so there is no way to forgive yourself. Well...... Anyway, now that you've completely pulled yourself together, there's no point in continuing to discuss this. ”

Just like it was just now.

With a smile on her face that seemed to know everything, Yumemi Okazaki gave Ji Yuehua a meaningful look, and then, out of the corner of her eye, skimmed over a house in the distance.

It's a bit bigger than the house next to it, but it's not very large.

From the outside, it seems that there is only a garden or so. Because it is a traditional style, the old building with only one floor is probably the same as his house in terms of saleable area.

As a former military marshal and director of the first technology development bureau...... No, even by the specifications of a military division commander, it seems too modest to live.

Although not that there is any particular opinion on this...... Is this the place where Dongfang Canglong and Yumemi Okazaki lived in seclusion after they got married?

"I don't think you'd go to a place like this to meet me, an old woman. If you're looking for that idiot, he's walking or doing physical training in the garden at this time. ”

"Obviously he has retired, does the old man of the East still insist on daily exercise?"

"Ahh There was no way, as long as he didn't say that he wanted to go to the mountains to instruct the brown bear in martial arts. To make sure this idiot didn't get into trouble, I sold even that grocery store. Alas, all I know all day is fighting and fighting, so why did I fall in love with such a single-celled creature in the first place?"

Like this.

Although he said it in a complaining tone, he had an expression of happiness on his face that was about to melt, and he unconsciously bent the corners of his mouth and smiled. It is conceivable that if Dongfang Canglong is also here, it will immediately become a magic realm where the light bulb retreats.

I didn't expect to be exposed to affection before I saw Dongfang Canglong...... What's more, from the Okazaki Mengmei in front of me, I thought of my two righteous sisters and Bayi Yonglin.

If it's a couple, I'm sure I've already done things like "ah~" feeding, or sleeping on a knee pillow. Ten years later, will I and them be like this, like glue, inseparable?

I imagined that situation a little. With a little longing and expectation, Ji Yuehua's face turned red like a fire.

Noticing the abnormality on his side, Yumemi Okazaki put her slender and slender fingers on her lips and giggled.

"Oops, did it turn out that you were the first to become red-faced? Speaking of which, Yonglin's child is the same, as long as she grabs her weakness, she will get angry. This can't be done, young people's faces are too thin. Hurry up and go with that kid or your two stupid girls. Maybe you'll be a little bolder, right?"

"Thank you for your advice. I'll think about it carefully. ”

Although his face was about to turn red like a persimmon, his tone and expression remained calm on the surface, and he deliberately used honorifics...... It's like a left-handed old man when he was younger. It's so cute, so cute that you want to pinch your cheeks. ”

"Please don't do it. Although you may not have noticed, I am already an adult. ”

"It's because I'm an adult but I'm still so innocent, so it's worth teasing...... Forget it, who told me to have something else to do. I'll let you go today. ”

After saying that.

Without waiting for Ji Yuehua to breathe a sigh of relief, Yumemi Okazaki added another sentence, "Ah, then again, I heard the news a while ago." Have the courage to confess on the street, aren't you a capable kid? I heard that Yonglin's child didn't go to work for the next few days, but you have already ......"

"Wow, ahh Commander Okazaki, don't you have something else to do? Is it really okay to keep standing here and talking to me?"

Hearing Yumemi Okazaki's teasing, Ji Yuehua's face and neck were hot like a fever, and she interrupted the former's speech in a panic.

"Well, it looks like we haven't crossed that line yet. But it doesn't matter, as the saying goes, you young people have enough time to grind, take more long detours, and do some useless work. Well, it's almost time for me to go and be a consultant for the lovely juniors. The next time we see you, I'll treat you to tea again. ”
