When Nan Youxi woke up, it was already dark. He turned on the phone beside the bed and found that it was one o'clock in the morning.
There was an unread message on LINE. It was sent by Nao Asano at seven o'clock last night, asking him why he hadn't come over for dinner yet.
He edited his reply: "I accidentally fell asleep and just woke up."
He also didn't expect that he could sleep until the early morning.
Putting down his phone, he touched his hungry stomach and wondered where to get something to eat.
It's already May, the family's living expenses have been deposited into the card, and he is now rich.
Where should we eat? An izakaya? A convenience store
At this late hour, there wasn't much food to choose from.
He doesn't have a very mature face, so he probably can't go to an izakaya. If he goes to a convenience store, he can probably only eat oden or cold rice balls and cold bento.
He looked towards the window. The curtains were not drawn. The dark night covered the glass. The dots of light under the night sky were scattered everywhere, as if separated, making the night even more lonely.
Looking at this scenery, Nan Youxi sighed.
In The Sims, I have a wife, kids, and a warm bed, but in reality, I don’t even know what to eat. The contrast is huge.
He got dressed and was just beginning to feel worried when the screen of his cell phone beside the bed lit up and a message alert sounded.
It was from Nao Asano, and the message was very short.
"Are you hungry?"
The words were brief, but the impact was huge, like a bullet. Nan Youxi's heart was surging, and he typed a reply.
"Hungry!"
"Eat noodle?"
"I'll be right there! Sister is awesome!"
Walking quickly to the entrance, Minami Yuxi picked up the keys and access card on the counter, hurried out of the apartment, and walked quickly towards Asano's house.
The vegetarian noodles were made quickly. He sat at the dining table for a while and the noodles were placed in front of him.
Although the noodles are plain, the seasoned vinegar poured on top is very flavorful. There are also a few side dishes on the side, making it a delicious dish that is not shabby at all.
If you put a bamboo rack on it, put in running water, and make running water vegetarian noodles, it will be a delicacy that people will drive specially to eat.
After eating the noodles, Nan Youxi felt much better. Looking at the darkness outside the window, she felt that the scenery was shyly covering her face.
"Sister, are you still awake?" Minami Yuxi looked at Nao Asano in front of her.
"Playing games."
"Did I disturb my sister?"
"It doesn't matter, just pause the game and leave it there."
Minami Yuxi couldn't tell the truth from the falsehood in Asano Nao's words. It was true that this otaku girl liked to play games, and it was not surprising that she played games late at night, but she played games until the early morning today. Was she really just playing games
Just like the wind blowing down the leaves, the leaves can say that they are withering and want to fall down on their own, but what really makes them fall now is the wind that is caressing them.
"It's very quiet outside." said Nan Youxi.
"Yeah." Nao Asano looked out the window. The night was without the hustle and bustle of the day. Even if one occasionally met pedestrians at night, one would feel much more at ease because of the cover of the night.
She thought of the dream in which she and Nan Youxi went out shopping at night. However, the world line has changed.
She lowered her head and looked at the edge of the dining table.
Nan Youxi guessed her mood, stood up and said, "Do you want to go out for a walk?"
Nao Asano suddenly raised her head, her eyes full of surprise and joy.
"Yes!" She nodded vigorously, and little Nao also nodded.
"Before you leave, I have one condition."
As Asano Nao looked anxiously at him, he continued, "Sister, you need to change into a nice dress, and glasses, at least into a more ordinary style."
"I think this is quite ordinary." Nao Asano muttered softly.
"It covers half of my face. How can it be ordinary?" Nan Youxi took off her square black-framed glasses and flipped them over in her hand. "I don't know where you got this antique."
When her glasses were taken away, Nao Asano instinctively shrank back. She felt her face was too empty, so she quickly covered her forehead with her hands.
Her cheeks were slightly red, and not wearing her glasses in front of Yuuki felt like she wasn't wearing that piece of fabric.
Because her myopia was not severe, she could see the road clearly without glasses, so she hurried to her parents' bedroom to calm down. She put on contact lenses and took a white cardigan and a black long skirt from her mother's closet.
The door to the entrance opened, and the dim light of the street lamp shone in. Asano Nao hesitated.
"Let's go." Nan Youxi stretched out her hand.
"Yeah!" She smiled and held the boy's hand.
It is now early morning and all shops except those open all night are closed.
The weather was much warmer than before, and Nan Youxi opened his coat, letting the wind pass through his waist.
They didn't speak. There was silence under the night sky. They also became quiet, experiencing this quiet world.
They crossed the riverside where cherry trees were planted, passed the subway entrance, circled the school, returned to the Asano residence from the other direction, and waved goodbye at the door.
After returning home, Nao Asano did not turn on the lights. She lay on the sofa in the darkness of the living room, holding up her left hand that she had once held tightly with Minami Yuki, and looking back on this peaceful, little trip.
Minami Yuki returned to the apartment and couldn't find anything to do, so she picked up the comic book she borrowed from Asano Nao and read it until dawn.
After having breakfast at Asano's house, he came to school.
When the bell rang, he paid some attention to the class, but most of his attention was focused on Shiori Ichinose.
He looked at Shiori Ichinose's legs in black stockings under her skirt.
The socks are cotton socks, which have a different texture from silk stockings. They are warmer, softer and more homely. Under the dark blue pleated skirt, the elegant curves of the calves are wrapped in this homely warm feeling, which makes him unable to take his eyes away.
He thought that legs and socks are like mechanical keyboards and keycaps. The feel of the keyboard itself is important, but colorful keycaps can also add a lot of charm to the keyboard. The brand of the keyboard is a cultural temptation that exists like a brand in the spirit.
Shiori Ichinose's calves also have cultural temptation, and the temptation is huge.
Because - these are the Prime Minister's legs!
These are the legs of a prime minister who has been in office for at least ten years! And she is a female prime minister! If not the only one in history, then at least it ranks among the top!
In the memory scenes of The Sims, Shiori Ichinose always wears suit pants. If you don't watch it now, you may never see it again! This is the limited edition legs of the beautiful girl prime minister wearing cotton stockings!
Perhaps his gaze was too intense, which made Ichinose Shiori feel something, and she turned her head and glanced back. He calmly looked away, pretending to be listening attentively.
It was a close call, the peeping Prime Minister was almost discovered.
After the morning class, Minami Yuki took out the lunch box made by Asano Nao.
The night out in the early morning seemed to have a great impact on this homegirl, and she stuffed a lot of meat into her lunch box. Speaking of which, I forgot to tell Asano Nao about the paper crane. Never mind, there's no rush anyway.
As the temperature rose, eating a cold bento was no longer so unbearable. Minami Yuxi was not happy to queue in front of the microwave. He moved his own table and joined Chishou Kazumi.
The classroom was noisy, with various small groups chatting during the lunch break.
Suddenly, the volume in the classroom became lower. The students, who had been taught to read the atmosphere since childhood, quieted down in a very short time. It was a bit like dominoes. At first, only a small group became quiet due to the cold atmosphere or the sudden intervention of external things. Then, the silence quickly spread to the entire classroom like an infectious disease.
Nan Youxi looked around, looking for the source of the class's silence.
He met Yuko Ibuki.
The girl didn't care about other people's gazes. She walked to Nan Youxi's side, pulled a chair and sat down.
"I want to eat together." The girl put down the lunch box in her hand, looked at Chishou Kazumi, and then at Minami Youxi.
Nan Youxi thought about the dream movie that had troubled him for a long time yesterday. Yuko's dream movie appeared because of him.
He couldn't help feeling a little guilty and apologetic, so he couldn't say no. He looked at Chishou Kazumi and left the decision to her.
Chiju Kazumi was a indecisive person. She hesitated for a while, but when she saw that Ibuki Yuko had already opened the lunch box lid, she agreed.
