"Do the advantages outweigh the disadvantages..."
Yuki Ichinose murmured thoughtfully, looking at Guang Ge in front of her, she could understand what it meant.
Just like Brother Guang, his merits are simply too numerous to count.
He is handsome, highly educated, gentle, considerate, humorous, and approachable. These are the advantages of his character. In addition, he is also good at a variety of talents.
Singing, swimming, surfing, photography, makeup, playing the piano, archery, cooking, skating, these are just the tip of the iceberg and probably not all that Brother Guang can do... It is no exaggeration to say that she doesn't know what there is that Brother Guang can't do.
In comparison, he has only one shortcoming, which is that he is fickle.
"Brother Guang, what are my strengths?"
After counting Guang Ge's strengths and weaknesses in her mind, Yuki Ichinose suddenly became a little curious about how she looked in his eyes.
"Hmm..."
Hearing this question, Kurosawa Hikaru looked at her and fell into deep thought.
"Can't you think of any?"
Seeing him thinking seriously, Ichinose Yuki was immediately shocked.
"How could that be? It's just that you have too many advantages."
Kurosawa Hikaru raised his eyes and looked at her, shook his head and said seriously.
"Really?"
"Really. For example, you are beautiful, which is also an advantage."
"Just looks?"
Yuki Ichinose was not very satisfied with the answer. She knew that she had a pretty face, but looks were not her only advantage.
"Don't worry, I haven't finished yet."
Kurosawa Hikaru was not surprised to see her reaction.
The reason why he was thinking just now was that he had a vague feeling that compliments on her appearance would not satisfy her, let alone cheer her up.
"good."
Ichinose Yuki nodded, knowing that she was indeed too impatient.
"Let me think about it."
Kurosawa Hikaru could understand her emotions, so he said something to comfort her and then fell into thought again.
Xiao Yuki would definitely be willing to accompany him back to his hometown. Putting aside other things, she would probably be excited just to see the place where he used to live.
However, the reason why she hesitated was because she was afraid that she was not doing well enough.
Without comparison, there is no distinction between good and bad, strong and weak... She felt that others could do better, so she backed off.
“You’re healing.”
After thinking carefully, Kurosawa Mitsuru finally found the answer and spoke.
"cure?"
Ichinose Yuki waited patiently for this answer, but was stunned.
Because the answer was beyond her understanding.
"You are very healing. When you are with me, you are always happy and have a smile on your face."
Kurosawa Hikaru looked at her expression, nodded slightly, and said affirmatively.
He has a crush on Yuki-chan, maybe because she is beautiful, but he likes her for reasons other than just her looks.
Every time Xiao Yuki sees him, she would be extremely surprised and smile happily, as if she had seen her favorite person. That feeling of her heart and eyes being filled with you can make any man addicted to it and unable to extricate himself.
“Is this considered an advantage?”
Yuki Ichinose felt embarrassed and her face turned red.
She actually liked this evaluation very much. It’s not that she disagreed, but she didn’t know whether it could be considered an advantage or not. No one had mentioned it before.
"Of course, because seeing you so happy, sometimes even if I'm in a bad mood, you can cheer me up.
Kurosawa Hikaru looked certain. Maybe Yuki was not the best in many aspects, but a person's charm never requires a person to be the best in a certain aspect, but lies in personality.
Admittedly, compared with Mirai and Chizuru, Yuki is not good enough based on the numbers on paper.
However, he was actually most relaxed when he was with Yuki-chan.
"Uh-huh."
Ichinose Yuki was very happy to see that he really thought so.
Most people go through life not knowing who they really are, and she was no exception.
In the past, she had never thought about how she was inferior to other girls, and she was not a competitive person.
But recently, because of the appearance of Ninomiya Chizuru and Shifengyuan Mirai, who are also Guang Ge's girlfriends, when she is alone, when she sees their shining figures, she always can't help but make comparisons.
"Are you satisfied with my answer?"
Kurosawa Mitsuru smiled as he watched her happy expression. Her beautiful green eyes were bright and lively. He knew that she had finally recovered her spirit.
Fools have their own luck. Although Yuki is not as smart as others, it is precisely because of this that she is the easiest to be satisfied.
"satisfy."
Yuki Ichinose nodded. She really liked the comment that it was very healing.
"Since you are satisfied, there is no need to talk about other advantages."
When Kurosawa Hikaru saw that she actually nodded, he looked silly, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and he continued to eat breakfast.
"Ah... I have to mention other advantages, too. I have to mention them all."
Yuki Ichinose was stunned for a moment, then she reacted and pulled his arm, shaking him and started to act coquettishly.
"Do you want to tell me everything?"
Kurosawa Hikaru's body was swaying as she pulled him, like a tumbler. He looked very troubled, and he looked at her with sidelong glances, but his eyes were full of doting.
…
"bite!"
As the elevator reached the corresponding floor, it made a crisp sound and the door opened automatically.
Before Kurosawa Hikaru could take a step, a maid was already waiting outside the elevator.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Kurosawa."
Sayaka Akai's hairstyle and outfit are the same all year round. She has short hair and a capable temperament. She bowed to him.
"good afternoon."
Kurosawa Hikaru nodded slightly and greeted her.
"Please follow me. The young lady has been waiting in the study for a long time."
After a simple greeting, Sayaka Akai led the way for him.
"Wasn't she staying in the room this time?"
Following her footsteps, Kurosawa Hikaru was a little surprised and spoke in a low voice.
Under normal circumstances, he would usually wait in the study first and then come down from upstairs.
"The eldest lady seems to want to see you first. She has a lot to say to you."
Sayaka Akai nodded slightly and responded softly without turning her head.
"Did she have a lot to say after last night's performance?"
After hearing this, Kurosawa Mitsuru roughly understood the situation.
"Come in."
Sayaka Akai helped him open the door and let him in first.
As he walked into the room, Kurosawa Hikaru saw a beautiful figure in front of the desk.
Shifengyuan Mirai, with her long black hair and snow-white skin, seemed to have heard the noise a long time ago and sat there looking at him.
As their eyes met, Shifengyuan Mirai patted the chair next to him, motioning for him to sit over quickly.
Seeing this, Kurosawa Mitsuru met her request and quickened his pace to walk over.
"Guang, how could you come up with such a good song?"
Before he sat down, Shifengyuan Mirai asked impatiently as soon as he approached.
"Which one do you mean? The Canon?"
Kurosawa Mitsuru sat down and asked.
"Of course it's Autumn Whispers."
Shifengyuan Mirai rolled his eyes at him.
Although she likes Canon very much, it is still far inferior to "Autumn Whispers"
Everyone likes different things. For her, the piano music given to her by Kurosawa Hikaru is simply the best gift in the world.
Whether it was autumn or whispers, these two elements completely hit the spot in her heart.
In addition, the melody and main tone of this piano piece are also in line with her preferences.
"I thought of this bit by bit just by thinking about your appearance. Do you like it?"
Seeing her eyes shining and looking very pleased, Kurosawa Hikaru smiled.
"What do you think?"
Shifengyuan Mirai noticed that he was a little proud, as if he was praising me a lot, and rolled his eyes at him with amusement.
This bad guy knew that she liked it very much, but he still asked.
"Then I'll find time next time and play it for you alone."
Noticing that she felt a little embarrassed, Kurosawa Hikaru stopped teasing her.
"How was last night?"
Remember this agreement, Shifengyuan Mirai said curiously again.
In fact, she actually went backstage last night and met with Lingshi, and there were bystanders in the presence of others, in order to create evidence.
Maybe she expressed her love and surprise for the performance last night, but that was a performance for outsiders.
That's why she was so anxious today because her true thoughts were not conveyed clearly.
"It went pretty smoothly, but my uncle was not very satisfied with me."
Seeing that she wanted to ask, Kurosawa Mitsuru did not hide it from her.
"Are you still not satisfied with this? Did you tell me about your background?"
The future of Shifengyuan is really incomprehensible.
From her point of view, Kurosawa Mitsuru is already perfect as a husband and is impeccable.
"They asked, and I told them... but they didn't seem to have heard of Shinichi-san's name."
"Just tell them. They will definitely ask before the next meeting. Once they have found out, they will be satisfied."
Upon learning of this situation, Shifengyuan Mirai was immediately relieved.
According to her investigation and understanding, the Ninomiya couple are very snobbish and ambitious, and are extremely obsessed with climbing up the social ladder.
In this case, even if Kurosawa Hikaru has any shortcomings, in front of his invincible backstage, the merits will outweigh the flaws.
"Let's not talk about this. What should we do at the beach this Sunday?"
Kurosawa Hikaru felt that it was not a good idea to talk about adult matters with his girlfriend, so after thinking about it, he took the initiative and guided her.
"This Sunday?"
When Shifengyuan Mirai heard these words, she was not in a good mood and her reaction was a little subtle.
"Yes, the performance is over. I don't have any fixed work arrangements for the time being. This time I can go out and have fun without any distractions."
Kurosawa Mitsuru nodded slightly and said affirmatively with some anticipation.
Unlike a piano recital, a performance in public must proceed on time.
Although he still has a lot of work to do in the future, such as fulfilling obligations and shooting commercials, the shooting date is negotiable.
After all, his current status is very high, so even if he asks his partners to wait for another week, it should be okay, he can just say a few nice words and let it go.
In his eyes, there are three things that must be addressed as a priority.
Go to the beach with Mirai, go on vacation with Chizuru, and take Yuki back home.
The sooner these three things happen, the better. Whether it is to avoid date conflicts or to relax, he plans to go on a date with Future at the beach first.
Because after the paper of his relationship with Mirai was broken, they have never gone out on a date together.
"… "
Seeing his expectant look, Shifengyuan Mirai opened her mouth but hesitated to speak.
"What's wrong?"
Kurosawa Hikaru felt that something was wrong with her expression and asked her with concern.
"Guang, why don't we wait until I go to college before going to the beach?"
After some hesitation, Sifengyuan finally made up his mind to explain it to him clearly.
"Why? Don't you want to go?"
Kurosawa Hikaru was stunned when he heard this, not understanding why she changed her mind.
"I really want to go, but it's not worth it to risk my parents getting mad at me. If I go next year, the risk won't be that great."
Seeing his happiness come to an abrupt end, Shifengyuan Mirai felt very uncomfortable, but in order to be honest with him, she expressed her concerns.
"… "
After hearing this, Kurosawa Hikaru fell into deep thought.
Most people, when faced with change, always have concerns and dare not take that step easily.
Only a few people will move forward resolutely when faced with change.
"Guang, I really want to go, but I don't dare to take the risk. I don't want to lose you."
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Shifengyuan Mirai held his hand under the table, and with trembling cherry lips, she smiled bitterly.
Because of last night's performance, her love for Kurosawa Hikaru has deepened.
She is proud of Kurosawa Hikaru's excellence.
She was pleasantly surprised by Kurosawa Hikaru's masterpiece.
"Are you worried that our elopement this time will bring unnecessary risks and make your mother angry?"
Feeling her movements and her nervousness, Kurosawa Hikaru could probably guess what she was thinking.
A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. This is the character of a wise man. Going there knowing that it is dangerous is something only a fool would do.
Among the laws of economics, there is one called loss aversion—which means that human nature is more afraid of losing than of gaining.
"Although our relationship is approved by my grandfather, there is no need to conflict with my mother."
Shifengyuan Mirai nodded and smiled bitterly.
She really wanted to go to the beach with A Guang. She wanted him to see her in a swimsuit and wanted to go somewhere different with him.
As long as she was with Guang, even if it was just eating smoothies or taking a walk on the beach together, she felt that she would be extremely happy and satisfied.
It was precisely because she knew that this would be wonderful, and that after she graduated from college, she would definitely do countless such things with Kurosawa, so after she realized the risks, she suddenly became timid.
"I have the head of the family's business card."
Seeing that she locked herself in the cage again, Kurosawa Mitsuru immediately said.
When a person is afraid, it is very difficult to calm his fear and take a brave step forward.
This is like asking a person who is afraid of water to swim. Although he finds it easy, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky for the person who is afraid.
"There's no need to use the family head's business card just to go to the beach... Guang, can we wait until later?"
Hearing this trump card, Shifengyuan Mirai shook his head, rubbed the back of his hand gently with his fingers, and begged humbly.
She wanted to go to the beach with A Guang. She didn't want to make A Guang unhappy, but she really had no choice.
She was not an ordinary girl. Not to mention staying out all night, from childhood to adulthood, no matter where she went, she had to report to her mother.
Even before going to see the performance last night, she had discussed it with her mother in advance because her mother felt that listening to a concert could help her relax and cultivate her sentiments, and she also agreed because she recognized her piano skills.
She didn't dare to take the risk, she wanted to wait... She wanted to wait until the day she graduated from college and married Kurosawa.
"… "
Seeing her pitiful appearance, Kurosawa Mitsuru was speechless. He felt very sorry and heartbroken.
He thought that after meeting his parents, there would be no more obstacles to his relationship with his future, and he would not be afraid even of eloping.
But now it seems that he has cleared the obvious obstacles, but the biggest problem that has never been solved is the fear of her mother in the future.
He probably understood this kind of fear.
Because children are really powerless when facing their parents.
It was as if Chizuru demonized her parents, feeling resistant and fearful, as if they were the most difficult people in the world to deal with, but after he actually came into contact with them, he felt that they were just that simple.
This result is the result of the days and nights spent together and the bits and pieces of past experiences.
"I'll use the family head's business card to propose to Mr. Zhenlong. Can I marry you directly?"
Kurosawa Hikaru pondered for a long time and came up with the only solution.
As for the future, the only thing that can truly help her break free from the shackles of being a bird in a cage is to marry him and leave the Shifengyuan family.
