Before seven o'clock in the morning, Naoko woke up on her own.

What I saw in front of me was a little unfamiliar.

Where is she......

She tried to roll over and found herself being held tightly. Bursts of warm snorts were blowing on the back of her neck.

“……”

Holding the hand around her waist, she was also more conscious.

She's in Tokyo.

In his room, on his bed, beside him.

The back of her neck was slightly itchy, and Naoko moved it down and squeezed it back, fitting more closely against his chest.

Glancing at the time, she found that it was not yet seven o'clock, and she herself was a little surprised, she didn't fall asleep too early last night.

Is it because he hasn't gotten used to sleeping with him again?

They lived apart after that night more than a month ago.

After that, she lived alone, both at her home in Tsuzen and in the old wooden house in Takayama.

It wasn't until a few days ago that he suddenly appeared in front of her again.

He really found her.

She didn't take the initiative to leave any clues, and with a little clue, he crossed thousands of miles and found her in the sea of people.

The so-called forgiveness when you find him was originally just an excuse to escape from not wanting to explain the complicated thoughts in her heart to his mother, but at this time and turning her head to look back, maybe the moment she pushed open the door of the post office and saw him was the moment when she unconsciously made a decision.

Has she forgiven him already......

“……”

Taking a deep breath, Naoko took the hand on her waist again, brought it to her mouth, and bit it down.

"Hmm...... Hurt...... It hurts, it hurts, it hurts—"

The pain in his hand made Naruse complete the transformation from dazed to awake between breaths.

"Naoko?"

"It's time to get up." Naoko said, but turned over again, hugged him and didn't move.

“……”

Looking at the tooth marks on his fingers, Naruse picked up the phone next to his pillow and took a look at it, and found that it was not yet seven o'clock.

Putting down the phone, he also lowered his head, "Why did Naoko wake up so early and can't sleep?" ”

"Hmm."

Naruse yawned, "Then get up." ”

She didn't respond, so he continued to lie down with her.

"Mom, are they up?"

"I didn't hear anything." Naoko said as he buried himself in his chest.

Naruse himself held his breath and listened for a while, but there was no movement outside, and it seemed that they hadn't gotten up yet.

"I don't think I'm awake yet, hah......" he yawned again.

"Didn't you get enough sleep?"

"Well, it's kind of ...... What time did we go to bed last night, is it almost a little bit? ”

"I don't remember."

Naruse lowered his head and kissed her forehead, then closed his eyes again.

"Lie down a little longer."

"Hmm."

When he opened his eyes again, Matsu Qianqiu was standing by the bed, lifting the quilt, looking at him, and Naoko, who was sleeping with him in her arms.

"Mom is going to work." Seeing him wake up, she smiled and whispered.

Naruse quickly came to his senses, "Hmm. ”

She touched his head and looked at Naoko again, "Live well after you go back, don't mess around again." ”

"I know."

"That's it, Naoko woke up and remembered to tell her that I was going out."

"Hmm."

Matsu Qianqiu gently put down the quilt and left his room, shutting the door with a wave of his hand.

After a short while, there was the sound of the door closing outside.

Naruse hugged his girlfriend in his arms, "They're out." ”

“…… Well. ”

"You're all awake, why don't you say hello."

She opened her eyes, "Shy." ”

He smiled.

"Go back this time, see you next time, it's probably the end of the year."

Naoko moved up, "Hmm." ”

"Get up."

She nodded.

Both of them slept almost this time, got up quickly, and after washing, Naruse went to prepare breakfast.

Half an hour later, the two left the apartment with their luggage.

I took the train to Tokyo Station, transferred to the Shinkansen, and at the end of the three-hour trip, it was already noon when the two returned to Aomori, where there was heavy snowfall.

Before taking the train back to Tianjin, another 40 minutes passed.

Coming out of the station, Naruse exhaled mist and clenched his girlfriend's hand, "Welcome back." ”

“……”

She bit her lip and nodded.

"I'm back."

It would take a long time to go home, so the two dragged their luggage directly and went to school.

"It's so quiet, it's already class."

"Hmmm......"

Returning to the school where she dropped out, how resolute Naoko was then, how restrained she is now.

"It's fine." Naruse smiled and comforted his girlfriend, "Leave it to me." ”

She clenched his hand.

Naruse took her and came directly to the staff room, it was class time at this time, and there were not many teachers left here, but the teachers of the two happened to be among them.

“……”

As soon as he saw him, Yanagisawoka's eyes widened.

Naruse smiled apologetically, not knowing what Morimi had told him.

pulled Shangzi and came to Zhongyuan Xue, who was also stunned, and he spoke directly.

"Teacher Nakahara, what procedures do you need to go through if Naoko wants to transfer back to Jingao?"

"Ah...... Huh? ”

Nakahara Xue turned her gaze and stayed on Naoko's face.

Naoko gently pulled out her hand, then bowed her head to the teacher in charge, and bent down.

"Because of my reckless behavior, I have caused a lot of trouble to Mr. Nakahara, and I am sorry."

Nakahara Xue opened her mouth and stammered, looked at her, and then looked at Naruse.

He also lowered his head, "The matter of Naoko turning back to Tsugao will also trouble Mr. Nakahara." ”

In the afternoon, Naruse and Naoko stayed in the staff room, and under the guidance of Nakahara Yuki, they walked through the process of returning to school.

On the guardian's side, although the Hua couple could not be present, they also answered the phone - Zhongyuan Xue was very clear about the situation of her family, and the requirements were not so strict.

Before school ended, Naoko's return to school process was almost complete.

"Welcome back to Jin High School, back to Class C of the second year, this flower."

Naoko bowed deeply, "Thank you, teacher." ”

Zhongyuan Xue wiped the sweat on her head, in order to complete the formalities as soon as possible, this kind of cold weather made her so busy that she sweated a lot - the hot wind of the air conditioner has been blowing.

"This flower student will be able to come to school normally tomorrow."

"Okay."

Naoko answered, and looked to the other side of the staff room, and after she was done with her business, Naruse went to deal with her as a teacher.

"Ahem...... I'm almost recovering. ”

Yanagisawa didn't bother to talk nonsense, just brought the attendance book to him and asked him to look at the shocking absence record on it.

Naruse swept his eyes, and suddenly remembered Matsu Chiaki's words yesterday, "I've been absent from work these days...... Didn't it say anything above? ”

The teacher glared, "Which one is above?" ”

"Above school?"

"Huh?"

"No, nothing ......"

It seems that the relationship he is looking for is not very reliable, Naruse thought to himself.

Anyway, he's back now, and there's probably no need to skip school again after that, and although the number of days of attendance is dangerous, it's no problem to go to school well after that.

Jingle Bell Bell –

The bell rang for the end of the second class in the afternoon.

"It's time to go to the evening meeting, so come along." Yanagisawa said to Naruse.

"Okay."

On the other side, Nakahara Xue and Naoko also said the same thing.

The two dragged their suitcases and followed their respective teachers back to the classroom.

Class C is closer, and Naoko's return immediately causes an uproar throughout Class C.

Naruse showed his head at the door, waved his hand to the starfish with his mouth open, and then followed Yanagisawa back to Class A.

After all, he was only absent for a few days, and the reaction of his classmates in the class was much calmer than that of class C.

"Has Naruse finally been arrested back to school?"

"Yes."

"I didn't even wear a uniform."

"I forgot."

While greeting and returning to his seat, he sat down, and Morimi also turned around.

"I'm back."

She stared at him for a moment.

"Didn't you say that if you solve Naoko's matter, you will contact me."

"Sorry, these two days were rushed......"

Morimi looked at him for a few more seconds and asked, "What about Naoko?" ”

"In Class C."

"Are you back in school?"

"Hmm."

"It's really fast......"

She had a bunch of questions to ask, and the teacher on stage had already begun to preside over the evening class meeting, her eyes constantly glancing this way.

"Let's turn around first, and we'll talk about it later."

"What does it matter?"

"The guy on the stage is staring at you."

She turned around anyway.

And when the evening shift was over, Morimi's mood to inquire was not so urgent, and his eyes kept looking at the door of the classroom, as if he was waiting for something.

"Are you going to study at the school today?" Naruse asked.

She looked back, "Can I go?" ”

"What's not to do."

She glanced at the suitcase he had placed next to her seat, then at him again.

"When my wife comes back, isn't the first thing I want to do is strangle me?"
