Chapter 360: Love and Spices (6K)
After she offered the fragrant kiss, the toes that had been standing on tiptoe fell to the ground again.
The love that belongs to Naoki Natsume and Mao Asai has never been one-sided-
She doesn't have to step on her feet when she wants to kiss, he bends over.
After a long time, Asai took half a step back, put his slender jade fingers on the corner of his mouth and gently pursed it, his expression seemed to be satisfied with having just tasted a creamy dessert.
Naoki Natsume smiled slightly, his eyes full of pampering: "Thank you for your hospitality." β
"It's a pity." She looked at Naoki Natsume, "What if the two of them were awake now?" β
"When I wake up and see a scene like this, I don't think it's a good thing for the patient."
An abrupt voice interrupted Asai Mao's oath of sovereignty, and Nanami leaned against the door and looked at her, teasing, "My heart beat faster when I woke up, and I'm not afraid to make a good deal for others?" β
"When did you come in?" Asai frowned and looked at his aunt: "I remember that the two uncles closed the door before leaving. β
"Came in at this and such a time." Nanami smiled even more happily, and his two hands made strange gestures out of thin air, as if to demonstrate something.
Asai was a little embarrassed when she saw this, she understood that her bad-hearted aunt was mimicking the posture she had just kissed with Natsume Naoki around her neck!
"You two are so forgetful that I didn't even notice when I entered the door." Nanamiya stopped his muzzling and added.
Asai squinted his eyes in displeasure: "Won't you knock on the door?" β
"I thought there was no one in there." Nanamiya shrugged his shoulders: "Because I am watching over the two of them most of the time, except for the reason that I have studied medicine, and because Mr. Amamiya and they are also busy with things, they will not stay here at night." β
She yawned as she spoke, and it seemed that she had been with the bed late last night.
"Where's my food?"
"Here." Naoki Natsume walked to the table, untied the picnic cloth, took out the bento box wrapped in it and handed it to Nanamiya: "Mao started preparing the ingredients last night, and I was afraid that it would not be fresh to eat, so I didn't make it and put it in the refrigerator to heat it up again in the morning, so I woke up early this morning and made it." β
"Mouthy."
Asai snorted coldly disdainfully, as if he was dissatisfied with his words.
Seeing this, Naoki Natsume just smiled dotingly, reached out and touched her head: "Then I hope you will be merciful and don't cut off my tongue." β
"Am I some kind of devil who is in charge of the Tongue Pulling Hell? In that case, I'll be the first to clean you up! β
Nanamiya took the bento, opened it, put it under his nose and smelled the aroma of the food, and he could still feel the heat of the rice.
"It's a good job of insulation, so you don't have to compete with them for the microwave."
There is a microwave oven in the lobby of the inpatient department, so that family members who accompany the hospital can have a hot meal.
However, because microwave ovens are not only used by family members, but also by doctors and nurses, and there are only two microwave ovens for many people, so if you want to use them, you have to wait in line with those men, women, and children in the hall.
There is always an indescribable mist on the family members who come to accompany the bed, which envelops the whole person, making their faces unsmiling, their eyes are low, and the feeling of tiredness is about to come out.
If you stay in the crowd for a long time, you will always be infected.,Nanami Night is studying medicine again.,I'm used to seeing these births, old age, sickness and death.,Even if you're used to it, you don't want to be next to it.γ
Life's hardships are always sad.
Of course, there is another more important reason, she has a lazy temperament, and she doesn't have the ability to act like Asai Trutho, so she naturally doesn't want to bother to work hard to eat ready-made.
"It's good." Nanamiya opened the lunch box and sat down to eat, eating fried hamburger meat with an admiring expression on her face.
Then she looked at Naoki Natsume again: "If I'm not mistaken, your cooking skills are very good, my sister's skills were learned from you, and my little niece's skills were learned from my sister...... Why don't you cook? β
Naoki Natsume shook his head when he heard this: "I haven't cooked for so many years, and I'm already rusty." Besides...... She has lived with me for so long, and she has long figured out my eating style, and the meals she cooks add secret spices, in short, they are very delicious. β
Nanamiya is a little curious, she lives alone in an upscale neighborhood in Tokyo, and she usually eats not all to go to the kiosk or takeout, and the kitchen utensils are all available.
It's not that she doesn't know how to cook, but she hates the tedious preparation and the need to wash pots and dishes.
In short, it's very casual and lazy.,I hate all troublesome things.γ
But on a very hungry night, it is common to fry an instant noodle and get some side dishes to drink and watch late-night variety shows.
"Where's the recipe?" Nanamiya looked at Asai Mao: "You won't be so bad and don't tell me, right?" β
"Your eyes aren't much better." Asai glanced at her with his hands on his chest, frowning and looking coquettish, as if protesting something.
Source change appγ
But then her brows softened again: "First of all, even if there is, I won't tell you, and secondly, there really isn't." I've never heard of myself having such a thing. β
Turning to look at Naoki Natsume, she asked, "Do you see anything special in my cooking?" If it's rosemary and bay leaves, it's a misunderstanding, those spices are Mediterranean spices, which are occasionally used in Italian cuisine, and are used in all Mediterranean cuisines, not secret spices. β
Naoki Natsume didn't answer, just looked at her with a smile.
Asai was stunned for a moment, and soon understood.
Because Naoki Natsume's eyes were full of affection.
It's the same as when she cooks for Naoki Natsume on weekdays.
Full of love.
There's nothing more special and aromatic than this spice.
So she gave him a vicious look, as if to warn him not to say some meaty and earthy love words.
"Shut your mouth, talk nonsense, wait for a boiled egg tonight!"
Naoki Natsume shrugged at Nanami Yaichi with some innocence: "She threatened me, so I can't say anything about this secret recipe." β
Hearing this, Nanami Ye picked up a piece of white radish with a fast child, and stared at the white radish carefully: "It's good not to say it, just look at the plan she wanted to show affection in front of the patient just now, maybe she will be sick to your stomach after hearing it." β
"Eating the food I cooked and saying that I have nausea, I think you are hungry tomorrow!"
"Talking to my aunt like this, I have a lot of ability!"
Nanami Ye looked at her-for-tat while eating, but there was still a hint of a smile in his eyes: "But it sounds like it's ear to hear, do you know, the pungent character in your bones is the symbol of our Nanami family, and the soft bones of the Asai family don't have such a lioness's temper, as if they are ready to pounce on me and eat me." β
Hearing her say this, Asai fell silent for the first time, as if acquiescing to her words.
Whether it's Nanamiya or herself, or even her mother, who died ten years ago, she actually has a stubbornness in her character that refuses to admit defeat, and she herself couldn't be clearer.
To sum it up, it's very rebellious.
She actually doesn't have a good impression of the Asai family, and the father gave her a warm home when she was very young, and when she was a little older, she began to mess with flowers and grass outside.
So much so that after Asai Yue became his mother, she fought with those indiscriminate women all day long, teaching her husband who loved to go to nightclubs to drink.
This is also the reason why Naoki Natsume also has a complicated perception of Uncle Asai after regaining his memory.
He really wasn't a good father.
Later, he reformed and decided to treat this family well, but he had a car accident on the way to Sapporo to play and relax while driving his wife and daughter, which seemed to be providential, and it was too late for the prodigal son to turn back.
So Asai didn't refute Nanamiya when she heard this, she liked her mother's previous surname more than the Asai family, and she also liked the people of the Nanami family more.
For example, my aunt.
In fact, when Nanami Ye longed for the big city and was unwilling to stay in the countryside, she already understood it very well when she grew up.
Everyone has their own aspirations, and everyone's way of living is their own choice, and others have no right to interfere.
It's just that children will always make trouble because of some things that seem very childish to adults, so she made such a fierce fuss back then, which once made this family relationship thicker than water very embarrassing.
Now that she has experienced life and death, she has long been relieved and no longer holds a grudge against Nanamiye, after all, she is her aunt and her only relative now.
But there was one thing that stuck with her.
"You gave him back the last [Memory] fragment!" Asai frowned and looked at Nanamiya, who was almost finished eating, and asked.
Nanamiya continued to eat as if he hadn't heard it, and after eating the last piece of meat, he wiped off a grain of rice from the corner of his mouth with the tip of his tongue, and clasped his hands together: "Thank you for your hospitality, it's really delicious." β
"I'm asking you."
"You know the answer, but you still want to ask me, what do you want to hear?"
Nanamiya tilted his head and put his finger against his lips, not knowing if he was reminiscing about the bento he just ate or something: "That's my first kiss, the little guy's first kiss has been taken away by someone in advance, right?" So I think I'm still at a loss? β
Asai Mao frowned: "You don't have anything you want to tell me?" β
"Blame me for kissing your little boyfriend?" Nanamiya smiled slightly: "I'm your aunt, so I should let you ...... You're not going to be an adult, you're going to have such a naΓ―ve mentality, right? β
After a change of words, she said again: "Besides, it's obviously a last resort. If I don't kiss him, there is no way for this memory to return to its original owner, and you seem to disappear? I don't remember it very well now, but there seems to be such a thing~"
Nanamiya shook her head, this memory became a lake because it no longer belonged to her.
If she continued like this, her memories of the event would become more and more ambiguous, until she finally forgot about it completely...... This is normal, after all, the fragments have returned.
It's like the Natsume couple has no memory of the fact that Asai Mao disappeared for a while, and everything is back on track, and in the near future, only Naoki Natsume will remember this memory that will last a lifetime.
Asai moved his nose slightly, and seemed to be a little angry.
Because of this explanation, because she really didn't have anything to say to herself.
She walked over and snatched the lunch box from Nanamiya's hand, threw down the sentence "Why don't you starve to death" and went out, probably to wash the lunch box.
The sooner you soak the grease stains, the better it will be to clean, and when the rice grains stick to the lunch box and harden, it will take some effort to clean them.
When she slammed the door and left, Naoki Natsume looked at Nanamiya, a little helpless: "Auntie, you talk too hurtfully, she actually thinks about you very much, she has spent a lot of thought on this meal, and she has been going to buy vegetables to prepare since yesterday afternoon...... I think it's time for you two to sit down and have a good chat. β
"We have to talk." Nanamiya nodded, then shook her head again, "But not today, not about it." All I can say is that, based on what I know about her character, what I just said is the best way to say it, although it sounds like I'm some kind of unkind femme fatale. β
She pointed to her lips and looked at Naoki Natsume with a smile, her eyes full of the charm of a mature big sister.
Naoki Natsume understood what she was referring to when she said "about this matter" just now.
That kiss was honestly shocked that he had seven points, and only tasted the sweetness of the big sister three points.
Because it was so sudden, the surprise in the surprise was more occupied, and there was no such thing as the enjoyment of kissing.
"I don't understand what it means." He confessed, "I still think you should be honest with her, Auntie." β
Nanamiya sighed, crossed Erlang's legs, and crossed the ten fingers of his hands on his knees.
"I'm her aunt, and the two of us are related by blood, and talking about it in this matter will only embarrass each other. It's better to deliberately say something hurtful, so that she feels kind enough to feed the dog, and it's better to hate me than when we meet, and our heads are full of ethical stiffness. β
Naoki Natsume coughed lightly, his face was a little red, and he looked away.
Nanami was slightly stunned, and when he looked down, he realized that he was wearing a slit skirt today, and the thin black silk was the kind of leggings that covered the hips, as if he was seen by the little guy......
The white sand is black in Nirvana, and it does not support itself in the fluffy hemp.
This Erlang's legs are cocked, and Bai Peng was born in black hemp, looming, making him young and strong, and he does not support himself.
I didn't expect my aunt to be so old and still like white so much.
Naoki Natsume thought so, and then found a chair to sit down, so as not to be so embarrassed.
Nanami Ye saw that he was embarrassed, and after being stunned, he smiled: "The little guy is very energetic." β
"It's a little bit more exuberant during this time." Naoki Natsume sighed: "Take advantage of the time when Mako disappeared to take a good rest and relax." I used to be listless and depressed every day...... I think it seems to have formed a vicious circle, sleeping in the bed at night is not good, sleeping on the floor is still not good for sleeping, one is not good for the body and the other is not good for the spirit...... In short, it's not good. β
"I think it's good."
Nanami smiled again at night, and I don't know if I was feeling the vitality of young people or just envy the young.
"What do you mean, my little niece has become a medieval witch, what kind of evil waist trick will she have?"
Naoki Natsume coughed a few more times to relieve the embarrassment and change the subject: "Ahem! That's where I'm mainly here today to see the situation of Senpai and Chizuru, how are the two of them? β
Nanami pretended to regret at night: "I thought the little guy was afraid that my aunt and I would be hungry, so he made a special trip to bring me food." Sure enough, young boys will like young girls. β
As she spoke, she secretly looked at Naoki Natsume's reaction, and saw that he didn't mean to explain at all, and suddenly felt bored.
"Are you not reacting to being teased now?"
"It's not that I'm used to being teased by you and Mao since I was a child."
"Oh...... Is it? Nanami Ye laughed evilly: "It seems that there is really no reaction to verbal teasing, but the little guy has really grown up, and he has to take some practical actions to react, such as just now?" β
Saying that, Nanamiya exchanged legs again, tilting his head and laughing at his reaction.
The looming spring light makes Natsume Naoki not look at it, nor does it not look at it.
"I'm not kidding you," she said, talking about the patient, and finally began to put the medical students on the shelf: "At the moment all the indicators are normal, and they are not in danger of life except that they have not woken up." When the old palace secretary came to visit, he told me privately that according to the current situation, it would be two days after tomorrow to wake up. β
Naoki Natsume estimated the speed of time that he had spent eight years in a dream after being in a coma for four days, and muttered to himself: "They have also spent so long in their dreams, what are their obsessions that they can't let go?" β
-----------------
In the dream, Amamiya Chizuru, who has reached the age of elementary school, still hasn't gone to school.
Amamiya Kima felt more and more that there might be something wrong with his daughter.
But he would rather invite the best psychiatrist to diagnose his daughter, and he didn't have time to spend half a day with his daughter to the amusement park......
"You haven't been out of the house for seventeen days," Mio Izumi sat on the bed and looked at Lori who was sitting in front of the computer playing games, "breaking the previous record of sixteen days." It's really hard for me to imagine what it would be like to go out for seventeen days. β
"Is it hard to imagine? No, right in front of your eyes. β
Amamiya Chizuru sat in the middle of the bed, leaning on her knees first, her two small hands around her shins, stunned.
Hearing Mio's inquiry, she came back to her senses and answered.
Mio Izumi turned her head to look at her, "What were you thinking just now?" β
"I'm thinking about things outside, and I don't know how long it has been." Amamiya Chizuru muttered softly: "If it's been a few years since I went out, and Senior Dog married his childhood sweetheart, then what should I do?" β
Mio Izumi smiled, "Then I can only die alone with you...... Maybe when you get old in the future, you can live in a nursing home and take care of each other. β
"Why do I have to die alone with you?" Amamiya Chizuru frowned: "And why should I die alone?" β
"Can you still like someone other than Naoki-kun?" Izumi Mio asked rhetorically, she shook her head: "Anyway, I won't, this sentence is easy to say, but I am confident that it will be verified for a lifetime." β
"Hey, do you have a bit of fighting spirit? You still practice sports, where is the fighting spirit of not admitting defeat? Amamiya Chizuru pouted: "Even if they are already married after they go out, so what?" As long as you don't get a marriage certificate, it's not a bigamy crime, and I don't believe he can let me go! Besides, it's a bit of a crime...... Well, even if it's a little bit of a small dispute with the law, but I'm a thousand cranes of Amamiya, and there's nothing unfair. β
Mio Izumi was a little surprised: "Are you already ready for such a determination?" Even if you can't compete with his childhood sweetheart, you don't plan to give up on him? β
"Don't say anything discouraged, not necessarily." When Amamiya Chizuru said this, she actually didn't have much confidence.
It's just that she's not one to throw in easily.
"But ......" She changed her words and decided to tease Mio Izumi: "Without the first choice of senior dog, I can still choose my master!" β
"Here it is again, and here it is, and you're talking like that again." Mio Izumi was a little angry, she could see that she was really angry: "How old are you in the dream?" I'm still so obsessed with that scumbag greasy uncle who deceived you, I'll sweat for you! Now that you're an adult, why do you still say such things that you can't distinguish between right and wrong? He has a family and a room, and he is also engaged in online dating, and his character is obviously not good. β
"That's what you said, not his character."
"Yes, I said it! If I woke up from a dream and found him, I would scold him to my face! In reality, getting married and having children on the Internet with a little girl who is less than ten years old, how good can you be as a farmer? β
"However, he is really my last salvation during this time."
Amamiya Chizuru suddenly looked at himself sitting in front of the computer very seriously, his eyes were a little lonely and lonely, and his voice was small: "Without him, I would have become a very withdrawn person, maybe it will be a rich second generation with a problematic personality, no school and no culture, and go astray in a mess...... He was my white moonlight, illuminating my childhood, but I lost him. Heaven played a joke on me and gave me a second chance, and I didn't want him to be my cinnabar mole again, so I wouldn't let go. β
"I really don't want to wake up if there wasn't that guy out there waiting for me...... Or how good it would be to stay a little longer on this day? She sniffed, "Let me see the happiness of not losing him for a second longer." β
The game shown on the computer screen was "Elven Forest" ten years ago, simple and kryptonite, but it was the last game she played with Naoki Natsume.
She found reality in an illusory world.
The web is such an amazing thing.
If only the day hadn't ended so soon!
She was sad.
Ten years ago, I was immersed in happiness and didn't know what I was facing.
Ten years later, she was so sad that she was about to cry.
Because tomorrow of the dream is the day when Amamiya Konma goes to Hokkaido to participate in the three-day bidding.
She would beg her father to take her, because Naoki Natsume was in Hokkaido, and he had described to her the magnificence of the snow-covered mountains, and he had told her about the vast white snow of Otaru and Hakodate.
She didn't want to see him in the middle of nowhere, she just wanted to see the world he depicted, the beauty of the world and the snow of Hokkaido.
Amamiya Konma will agree to his daughter's request to finally go out, but because he is busy with business, he will also bring his wife to take care of his daughter.
He would prepare his suit and his wife's evening gown, because on the last night there would be a charity banquet to auction works created by the master oil painter Yumi Ishiizumi.
He was bound to get that painting, and painting it means that the project was done.
Similarly, there was a three-day countdown to the snowy firelight that night.
