Chapter 29: The Grey World (9)
Late at night, when everyone was ready to go to bed, Li Mengxi, who had been lying in bed for almost a whole day, finally woke up.
He slowly opened his eyelids, staring straight at the brown plank ceiling. Then he came to realize that he seemed to be in a hotel bed, and that it seemed to be night in the light.
"You're awake. ”
At this moment, a very pleasant voice came from the side, so Li Mengxi followed the sound and saw Hinata Nain's figure. The girl was sitting on the edge of the bed in a familiar chair.
If you look closely at the surroundings, it seems familiar.
"This is ......"
As soon as Li Mengxi spoke, Hinata Naine knew what he was thinking, and nodded with a smile.
"The room you stayed in before. ”
"However, I asked my boss that this place has already been rented to someone else. ”
"I'm the one who rented. ”
"Don't you have a place to live?"
"I'm afraid you won't find a place you like when you come back, so I'll help you keep this place. ”
"That's right. Thank you. Li Mengxi also smiled at Hinata, and then he remembered the duel between the two in the morning. "By the way, I seem to have lost to you at that time. ”
"yes, and then you suddenly fainted!" As she spoke, Naine Hinata deliberately made an angry expression, "If you lose to me, you'll be so devastated!"
Hearing this, Li Mengxi shook his head with a smile.
"It's not like that. I guess the thread in my head is broken. ”
Sinaps said the same thing. ”
"He?" Li Mengxi smiled bitterly, "This time, he is finally satisfied." Now, you don't have to trouble me anymore. ”
"Well...... "Naine Hinata looked embarrassed, "Sinapus asked me to tell you, and he'll come back to play with you." ”
"Alas!" Li Mengxi sighed sadly. Seeing him like this, Hinata Nain couldn't help but laugh.
"Poof! hehehe......"
"Hey!"
"I'm sorry, but this is the first time I've seen you look like that...... Is...... Ahahaha......"
"You're still laughing!"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Nane Hinata finally reluctantly put away her smile. Then, she took a deep breath and put on a more serious expression. "Let's get down to business. You lose, and you're going to reteam up with me as agreed!"
Finally talking about this problem, Li Mengxi couldn't help frowning, looking like he wanted to say something and stopped.
"What do you want to say!" Hinata was a little anxious, "It's not that I want to regret it!"
"Of course not!" Li Mengxi hurriedly responded, but the sadness on his face did not dissipate, "I'm just thinking, do I still have this qualification." ”
"What qualifications do you need for this kind of thing! I want to team up with you, not want you to be my entourage!"
"However, I left without telling you anything, and I didn't answer emails, and I broke my promise to make you suffer that kind of pain. Such a me...... Can I really stay with you?"
"As for these things, especially the fact that you did not come to my rescue, I will admit that I did blame you. "However, I feel that I have done something wrong. Especially that promise of yours, which was wrong from the beginning! You have to protect me, and I should protect you! Protect each other, support each other, that's true companionship, isn't it? I should have caught up with you from the beginning, and if I had caught up with you at that time, you wouldn't have been what you are now. I'm sorry, but you must have been exhausted this year. ”
"It's the same with the Black Ice Knight. Your sense of responsibility is too strong. What does it matter to you what I decided for myself, I was too anxious. I was so anxious that I couldn't stop myself. Thank you for stopping me, it's really exhausting. ”
"'Thank you' is what I should say. Those guys have already apologized to me, very 'sincerely'. ”
"Hehe, it seems that we all have things to apologize to each other, and we all have things to thank each other. ”
"Then it's all settled! You don't owe me, and I don't owe you. Then we are equal again!"
"Hmm. Li Mengxi sat up with his upper body, "Looking back, you also pulled me to form a team a year ago." This time, I would like to invite you instead. ”
"Okay!" said Hinata coquettishly, "Then you have to say something nice enough." ”
"Nice words......" Li Mengxi pondered for a moment, and then put on a serious expression. "I don't know if that's pretty or not. But what I'm going to say next is the truth!"
Hearing this, Hinata Nain also put away her playful expression and straightened her sitting posture.
"Say it. ”
"Like you said, I don't pay much attention to what is around me, and before I know it, I'm just straight ahead. It's been like this for a year, and every day I've seen a lifeless gray world, and to be honest, I don't really like it. It is only when I am with you that I take a good look around and discover all the joys in life. My world has color only when you are by my side. So, I hope to team up with you again, I want to see a colorful world. ”
This is more like a confession than a persuasion to form a team. When Hinata Nain heard this, her face immediately turned red. But this overload didn't last long, and she immediately recovered, took a deep breath and calmed down.
"Well, you can say that kind of thing every time as if nothing happened. It's too serious. Nane Hinata said and raised her hand to operate the panel.
Soon, the window for the team invitation popped up in front of Li Mengxi. Seeing this, he looked at Nayin Hinata in surprise, who smiled and nodded. So, Li Mengxi happily pressed the "confirm" button.
At this moment, after a year, the two formed a team again.
"That's right. Nain Hinata suddenly remembered something again. "Why the hell are you so anxious to level up?"
Hearing her ask this question, Li Mengxi couldn't help but stagger her gaze. He caused a lot of trouble for Naine Hinata this time, and it was understandable for him to explain the cause of the incident. But he really didn't want to tell Nain Hinata about this.
Of course, now that it happened, Li Mengxi felt that even if he told Hinata Nain about things related to his brother, there would be no problem. It's just that this girl's sense of responsibility is too strong, and if she hears this, she will definitely do her best to help herself.
In this way, will Hinata's Naon also become like herself this year?
Li Mengxi was scared of this. Naturally, he didn't give up the direction he was heading, but he didn't want to go back to that gray world either. He wants to move forward, but in a world of color. And this color was brought by the girl Nayin Hinata, if she also changes, what should she do?
At this time, looking at Li Mengxi's hesitant appearance, Hinata Naine smiled with relief and said, "Forget it." You don't want to say, I don't ask. ”
"Is it really possible?" asked Li Mengxi with an unexpected look. He believed that from the day he said goodbye, Hinata Naine had been worried about herself a lot, and that the failure to fulfill her promise must have caused her harm, and finally let her correct herself. So far, if you don't say why, you don't think it's appropriate, but can Hinata really not care?
However, this is the truth, and this is the girl named Naon Hinata.
"That's okay! you must have a valid reason, I believe that. Isn't it?"
Facing the question, Li Mengxi nodded. If it is legitimate, his reasons can be regarded as legitimate.
"Then it doesn't matter. It's just that I don't need to ask for a reason, but as a substitute you have to tell me about your experience during the year. ”
"Didn't you hear that guy say that?"
"He said what he saw and heard. What I want to hear now is your own description, and this is not okay?"
As she spoke, Hinata Naine leaned forward and met Li Mengxi's gaze from the bottom up, her big eyes open and her head slightly tilted. Looking at her in this posture, Li Mengxi was stunned.
"Hey, what's wrong?" said Hinata Naine with a wave in front of him.
In this way, Li Mengxi came back to his senses.
"Nothing. I just think you're cute. ”
Hearing this, Hinata was stunned for almost a second, and then suddenly sat up straight, her face flushed.
"You, you, you, you, you, what did you say all of a sudden!"
"Uh...... Yes...... Let's take a look. I remember before, didn't you let me say it. ”
"That's also a matter of time and place!, stupid!" yelled, and Hinata got up angrily and quickly ran towards the door.
"I'm sorry!" Li Mengxi hurriedly apologized, but the door had already been touched. Seeing this, he had no choice but to sigh. "Alas!"
At this moment, the door was opened again, and Nane Hinata poked her head in.
"No need to apologize, I'm not angry. It's just that it's late, and I should go back and listen to your story tomorrow. You should also take more rest. ”
"Hmm. See you tomorrow. Hearing this, Li Mengxi smiled with relief.
"See you tomorrow. With that, Nane Hinata closed the door again. She didn't leave immediately, but looked at the door panel, and then called up the control panel. She is now the owner of the room, and she can set it so that Li Mengxi can't get out of it by himself, so that he won't leave without a sound anymore.
Naine Hinata's fingers dangled on the panel for a while, but finally she put it down without doing anything. She chose to believe Li Mengxi, since this is the case, she no longer needs any insurance.
Thinking like this, Hinata finally turned around and left with a smile.
In the bar on the first floor of the hotel, Jasmine had been waiting boredly for a long time. At this time, she heard the sound of footsteps coming from the stairs, and she immediately looked up, and saw that it was really Hinata Nain, so she rushed up to meet it.
And Nane Hinata, who was walking down from the top, also saw Jasmine's figure, and was quite surprised and accelerated at the same time.
Eventually, the two met at the top of the staircase.
"You didn't go back?" asked Hinata puzzled.
"How can I rest assured that you're alone! Also, you're really teaming up with that guy again?"
"yes, what's wrong?"
"What's the matter? Don't say goodbye, ignore emails, don't keep promises, generally choose this kind of person as a teammate? Anyway, I won't choose. ”
"He's just ......"
"Okay! Leave this alone! What about yourself? You're not going to team up in the city, are you? Go out into the wilderness, are you really okay?"
Asked about this, Hinata Nain groaned slightly and nodded firmly.
"No problem! Face the fear to get rid of it! And even if there's a case, that guy will protect me!"
With that, Hinata walked outside the hotel. Jasmine looked at her back and didn't rush to follow, but thought about it carefully.
First he was played missing, then he was ignored for a whole year, and finally he was stabbed in the heart. Even so, he still stood up without hesitation when the other party needed it. Afterwards, he easily forgave the other party and continued to trust unconditionally.
This kind of thing between a man or a woman can simply be called a sincere friendship and a strong partner. But what if one side is a man and the other is a woman?
"Jasmine?" Just as he was thinking, the voice of Nane Hinata came from outside the store. So, Jasmine hurriedly replied "here" and chased out.
Coming to the street, the two men walked in the direction of the Eastern District. As she walked, Jasmine leaned into Hinata Nayin's ear and whispered, "Nain, you won't like that guy named Li Mengxi, right?" ”
"Alas!" Hinata screamed as she stepped away, blushing to her neck. "This, this, this, this, this kind of thing...... For, for, for, why do you think so!"
"And ask why?" Jasmine squinted and walked over, "Your attitude, no matter how you look at it, isn't it?
"I really didn't think about it. As she spoke, Nane Hinata squirmed, and the ten fingers of her hands fiddled with each other between her abdomen. "It's true that guy is sometimes handsome, reliable, and safe around him for no reason...... I'd love to team up with him, but when it comes to liking, I don't think that's the case. Besides, I don't know what it's like to like......"
"Then I ask you, what are you going to do if that guy confesses to your face?"
"Say what and do how...... It's too impractical. ”
"Yes. Then we'll talk about it then. With that, Jasmine turned and took a step.
"Hey, Jasmine!" said Hinata scrambled to catch up. "The topic you started yourself is over like this?"
"What else would you do?
"That, that, that, that, that kind of thing is even more impossible!"
"Otherwise, I'll go confess. ”
"I mean, you seem to be still saying bad things about him. ”
"Then it's better for Nayin to go. ”
"Jasmine!"
...... The frolicking of the two maidens echoed through the empty streets of the night, fading away.
