Chapter 14: The maid perceives the joy of work

"Natsume?" The girl on the other side had a little doubt in her quirky eyes, and asked while chewing on a shortbread, "What, it turns out that Mio-chan you know?" What is the full name, how big is it, which school is it from? ”

A series of questions like checking the account made Mio Izumi have a big head for a while, but she quickly thought of a rhetoric that took 0.5 seconds.

"The name is Naoki Natsume, and the major is the Department of Information Science and Engineering of the Faculty of Science and Engineering. Not only do I know you, but you should also know Xiaohui. ”

Mio Izumi continued: "He came to the sports club before the summer vacation last year and wanted to join the club, and you were there at that time, so you don't have any impression anymore? ”

The girl named Xiaohui frowned and thought for a while, then shook her head: "I can't remember, there is no such thing, right?" If there are such high-quality handsome guys in our club, how could I not have noticed it? ”

"Natsume-kun, he didn't succeed because he failed the physical strength test at that time." Mio Izumi reminded.

When she said this, Xiao Hui's eyes suddenly widened, and she suddenly realized: "Oh! I remember! It's the boy who ran 50 meters and took 12 seconds! Later, I measured 400 meters, and I didn't even run down! ”

Then she turned to look at Naoki Natsume, and opened her mouth wide, which was very exaggerated and cute.

"Shhhh It's rude to be quiet. Mio Izumi hurriedly reminded.

"Is it really him? Has it changed so much! Xiaohui turned back, with an incredible expression on her face, but she still lowered her voice, and leaned in front of Mio Izumi and said, "I remember that his hair was long at that time, and he didn't have much sense of existence, and people didn't like to talk, so he asked and answered...... Now it looks like a different person. ”

"People can't be good-looking, you know, I don't like to judge people by their appearance." Mio Izumi whispered.

"Oh, I know, I know, don't you just hate the kind of boy who comes to harass you when he sees you beautiful?" Xiao Hui pursed her mouth: "Then I'm also from the Appearance Association, Mio-chan, you also hate me?" ”

"You know I didn't mean that," Mio Izumi shook her head, "I'm not a boy who hates to talk to me, I just don't like certain cases." ”

Someone accosting shows that they have the capital to be accosted.

Girls naturally don't have to say, if a boy suddenly walks on the road and a girl blushes and whispers to ask you for your contact information, even if you are at a loss for social fear, there will be a little joy in your heart.

Mio Izumi hates the kind of suitor who still stalks after a clear refusal, even if there are nine gentlemen out of ten, the remaining one is enough for her to have a headache.

"Since you know each other, it's easy to do, and if you talk to you, you can also talk about it, just say that I met last year and met by chance this year, it's fate! God has arranged the biggest, and no one can stop fate when it comes! ”

Xiao Hui is eager to try it, and she is already speeding up the speed of eating shortbread.

She stuffed the shortbread into her little mouth and said excitedly: "I'll eat it quickly, I'll go when he leaves, I'll go later, follow him, and then find a section where no one is around!" ”

"Xiaohui, you are like the robber who is about to block the road and rob, or you should turn yourself in. And ......"

Mio Izumi said softly, "It's obvious that he's his girlfriend across from him, right?" ”

Xiao Hui was carried away by the excitement just now, and only Naoki Natsume's face was left in her eyes, and she was poured a basin of cold water by Mio Izumi, only to notice that there was a girl sitting opposite him who was not inferior to all the girls in the cafeteria in terms of appearance and temperament.

The enthusiasm subsided little by little, and Xiao Hui finally poked the dim sum in front of her with a fork very unwillingly, and complained in a sullen voice: "Ah! Yes! I knew that kind of guy was a sought-after commodity...... It was picked up a long time ago! Where's my turn? ”

Looking at Xiaohui's very depressed appearance, Mio Izumi couldn't figure out what she was thinking in her heart.

What's going on with this feeling?

Is it jealousy that leads to liking?

Far from it, she wasn't even sure if Natsume-kun and she were friends, maybe not even a nodding friend-

After all, after nodding and meeting, you can at least say hello and nod, right?

Why?

Strangers don't feel empty because of this kind of thing......

No, actually.

For example, if you see a very appetizing girl on the roadside hesitating on the roadside, you instinctively stop to look at the girl.

It's the first time I've seen her, but I'll continue to move forward with a soft sigh because I found out after a while that she's waiting for her boyfriend.

For example, a fisherman is accustomed to seeing fish, shrimp and small crabs in the shallows, and he saw a golden carp flashing in the river from a distance, and when he came back to his senses and wanted to look for it, he found that the golden carp had been caught in the net.

Naoki Natsume couldn't hear what was being said at the next table, and his conversation with Mio Izumi and Megumi was deliberately lowered in order to prevent being heard.

But he still thinks that it may not be good to be misunderstood by his senior sister.

"I was sloppy, and I didn't think about it so much after I got used to living with you at home."

Naoki Natsume looked at Mao Asai and said:

"Being mistaken for a couple can also make you embarrassed, right? I can't tell you about our relationship clearly, otherwise it would be too strange. The senior girl of the same major is the personal maid of the predecessor or something, and spreading it may affect your reputation. ”

"Indeed, don't tell anyone about that."

There was no sound when Asai Mao's face was chattering, which made Naoki Natsume wonder if she wouldn't be a neon person either.

"What about our relationship? At least don't let others misunderstand. Naoki Natsume asked.

"I've already made up the rhetoric, please keep it in mind." Asai looked into his eyes as if she wasn't lying at all, and held out two fingers.

"You and I were neighbors when we were kids, and the two of us went to the same kindergarten together, and we had a fight over toys in the kindergarten and had a breakdown. Later, I moved away with my parents, and we never saw each other again. ”

When mentioning his parents, Asai Mao's eyes fluctuated slightly.

But the fluctuation only lasted for a short time, and even Naoki Natsume, who was facing him, was not aware of it.

Naoki Natsume scratched his head, this statement is strangely true, she is worthy of being a professional maid, and sure enough, even the rhetoric has been arranged in advance.

"That is, the childhood sweetheart who has a very poor relationship has fallen from the sky after being separated for a long time? I'm going to let go of my old suspicions and become friends again, right? Naoki Natsume cleared his throat.

Asai Mao tilted his head slightly, not understanding what this guy was planning to do.

"Speaking of which, we should be childhood sweethearts, right? After all, I was a neighbor when I was a child. Naoki Natsume's voice was a little louder, just enough to be heard at the next table but not to the level of noise: "How many years haven't you seen it?" ”

Naoki Natsume's words really attracted the attention of Mio Izumi and Megumi at the next table.

Asai was stunned for a moment, then smiled lightly.

It seems that my work is finally having some fun.
