Chapter 284: Just missed it?

"Hey~!"

"When did you guys come down?!"

It was not until Iura Hide took the initiative to say good morning to her with a smile that Hori Kyoko finally came to her senses.

Thinking that the song she had just sung must have been heard by both of them, her face turned red.

To be honest, she was not insecure about her singing skills or felt that she sang badly, but the name of the song was "I Really Want to Tell You"!

"Not long ago, just before Kyoko-chan started singing~"

"What!? You guys came down so early?" Kyoko Hori's face turned even redder when she heard that. She clenched her fists in shame and anger and said angrily, "Why don't you come over to help?"

"Because Kyoko-chan sings so beautifully, I can't help but want to listen to it more~"

"."

If it was Pochi-chan, her CPU would have burned out by now, and she would have fainted just like she did during the adventure last night.

Although Hori Kyoko was not so exaggerated, she also lowered her head with hot cheeks. Shyness and sweetness intertwined together made her a little afraid to look Iura Hide in the eye.

"Why did you get up so early today?" Hori Kyoko instinctively tried to change the subject.

"Because I know Kyoko-chan will definitely get up early to make breakfast for us~"

Kyoko Hori was slightly startled when she heard this, she raised her head and said with some dissatisfaction: "There is no need to be so polite to me, right? It's just helping to make breakfast, I also have to make breakfast every day at home!"

Jingpu Xiu smiled and shook his head, and said seriously: "I am a little embarrassed, but the main reason is that I also want to make breakfast with Kyoko~"

Kyoko Hori was stunned for a moment after hearing this.

Want to make breakfast with her! ?
What does it mean?
Could it be.
Kyoko Hori stared at Iura Hide blankly. The shyness and sweetness in her heart, which had not yet subsided, surged violently again. She couldn't help but mutter "idiot" in a low voice.

At the same time, a strong impulse emerged from the bottom of her heart like a erupting volcano, making her want to rush over and throw herself into Jingpu Xiu's arms, hug Jingpu Xiu's neck with both hands, and go on a "spontaneous adventure" with Jingpu Xiu.

As for the so-called sense of ritual, she had long forgotten it.

However, just as she raised her feet, Kiko, who felt that it was a bit redundant for her to stay here any longer, turned around and wanted to leave, leaving the space for the two of them.

As a result, Hori Kyoko, who had only Iura Hide in her eyes, finally noticed her presence and stopped subconsciously.

There was no way. It was already embarrassing to play dare with Iura Hide in front of someone else's sister.

But Jingpu Xiu has a girlfriend, isn't this just cheating in front of him?

"I'm going to make breakfast, you guys continue~"

"."

Just when Kyoko Hori was struggling over whether to regroup and charge again, Motoko saw her stop and added another sentence.

Now even Iura Hide couldn't hold it in anymore, and the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously, which made Hori Kyoko even more embarrassed.

"Ah, I'm going to make breakfast too!"

After saying that, Kyoko Hori didn't wait for Motoko and Iura Hide to say anything else, and hurriedly walked towards the kitchen.

Now Motoko finally realized that she seemed to have done something bad with good intentions, and she turned her head to look at Iura Hide.

"Onii-chan——"

"Stupid tape~"

Jing Pu Xiu smiled and touched her head, indicating that he did not blame her, which made her feel relieved.

At the same time, Hori Kyoko, who had walked a few steps away, slowed down her pace again. Her cheeks seemed to have realized something belatedly and became even redder and hotter, and her heart was pounding so hard that it almost jumped out of her body.

"Stupid stupid stupid—"

"Hori Kyoko, you big idiot, you were so embarrassing just now!"

"Also, couldn't you have been faster just now!!!"

Yes, in addition to being shy, Hori Kyoko was more annoyed at this moment.

If she had been faster just now and thrown herself directly into Iura Hide's arms, she probably wouldn't have noticed even if Motoko walked away later, right?

At this moment, Hori Kyoko kept muttering to herself, feeling even more regretful than when she gave up the adventure yesterday.

Although Kiko was a bit of a nuisance there just now, but on such a refreshing and quiet morning, the two people who loved each other, filled with sweetness and emotion, suddenly decided to go on an adventure without any preparation.

From a certain perspective, it is romantic and ceremonial enough, right?

Anyway, if she had really pounced on him just now, she would definitely not regret or feel sorry for giving her C kiss to Iura Hide at this time.

but
“I just missed it!!!”

To be honest, if it wasn't Motoko but Sota, she would have wanted to beat him up!
But just when she was about to cry, Jingpu Xiu had caught up with her again and came to her side.
An electric shock-like feeling spread from the fingertips of the two people, causing her heart to beat violently and she almost couldn't help but scream out.

It was not until the three of them arrived in the kitchen that Jingpu Xiu quietly let go of her hands, and her severely overheated CPU finally recovered a little bit of thinking ability.

Then a sweetness that could not be described in words surged into her heart, making her almost unable to stand.

Although she had already made up her mind, as long as Jingpu Xiu also liked her, she would be willing to be just one of Jingpu Xiu's girlfriends.

For this reason, even if she needs to play games in a duo or even multi-row with others, she can accept it.

But this is the first time they hold hands!

And their fingers are tightly clasped!

Looking at the sink in front of her, she didn't even want to wash her hands. What should she do?!

Kyoko Hori was in a state of confusion.

At this moment, Jing Pu Xiu came over with an apron and said gently in her ear: "Can I help you put it on?"

This made her tremble all over, especially when Jingpu Xiu's fingers gently touched her body through her clothes. She felt dizzy as if she was drunk, and goose bumps appeared involuntarily.

It wasn't until Iura Hide helped her put on her apron that she came back to her senses.

Then she turned around subconsciously and saw Jingpu Xiu still looking at her from behind. This made her, who usually had a cheerful personality like a boy at school, blush and snap her fingers.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Do I look tacky in an apron?"

Kyoko Hori couldn't help but ask in a low voice, and she became unconsciously nervous when she said "earth".

Although she was not wearing the home clothes she usually wore at home, she might be used to it. She always felt that she looked very rustic when wearing an apron and doing housework. She was originally fierce and dressed so rustically. To be honest, compared with Kitagawa Umi, Kasumigaoka Utaha, and even Ozora and Ryune, she felt a little frustrated and inferior.

However, Jingpu Xiu smiled when he heard it, looked into her eyes very seriously and sincerely and said: "No, in my opinion, Hori Kyoko is no worse now than she is at school, as well as she is at home!"

"Really!?"

The nervous mood instantly turned into joy. After hearing what Iura Hide said, Hori Kyoko's eyes couldn't help but light up.

"So do you like me more at school or at home?" Hori Kyoko asked subconsciously.

After asking, I realized that what I said seemed to be a little ambiguous, so I hurriedly explained with a guilty conscience and embarrassment: "I was talking about dressing, not...no"

"Nothing?" Jing Pu Xiu tried to suppress his laughter and teased her deliberately.

Unfortunately, Hori Kyoko saw what he was thinking at a glance. She blushed and glared at him coquettishly, then turned away in a panic while whispering "idiot".

At the same time, Jingpu Xiu looked at her shy appearance and felt an impulse in his heart.

I couldn't help but take a step forward, gently put my arms around her waist, and whispered in her ear: "Whether it's the Kyoko Hori at school, the Kyoko Hori at home, or the Kyoko Hori who keeps saying 'idiot' now, I like them all, because they are all part of Kyoko-chan."

To be honest, Jing Puxiu's love words are not new or clever, but they make people feel very sincere. After all, this is a girl who can take the initiative to get up early to prepare breakfast for you! How can he not like it when he is used to seeing those fairies in his previous life?
His love words were like a glass of Long Island iced tea, gently pouring into Kyoko Hori's heart. Although she didn't drink alcohol, or even had never drunk alcohol before, Kyoko Hori felt drunk.

She was drunk and her head seemed to be thinking a lot, but also seemed to be thinking of nothing. Her body became soft and she had no strength, so she couldn't help but close her eyes and leaned relaxedly in Jingpu Xiu's arms.

For a moment, the spacious and tidy kitchen seemed to have turned into a world of pink marshmallows.

There were only her and Iura Hide left in the whole world.

Until Jizi, who had finished all the other work that did not require the use of the sink, came over with a little jealousy and whispered to them to move aside.

Hori Kyoko, who was immersed in her world of two, blushed, said "sorry" in a panic, suppressed her reluctance, and quickly escaped from Iura Hide's arms.

Time, which seemed to have been paused, began to flow again.

Although Kyoko Hori still didn't get to go on an adventure with Iura Hide this time, she was already extremely satisfied to be able to hold hands and hug, and to hear such sweet love words.

In fact, compared to last night's adventure, she prefers the current situation.

"It's almost time for the chicken to marinate."

"OK, leave the rest of the work to me~"

"Then I'll go get the grilled fish."

"Well, remember to wear gloves and be careful not to get burned."

"I know. I've been making breakfast for my family since I was in high school, okay~"

Kyoko Hori, wearing thick gloves, turned her head slightly to look at Iura Hide, who was also wearing an apron and busy in the kitchen with her.

An indescribable and inexplicable happiness and emotion quietly spread in my heart.

So much so that when she returned home, she was much more patient than before when faced with Hori Yuriko and Sota's questions.

For example: "Kyoko-chan seems to be in a good mood today. Could it be that she played games with Iura-kun last night?"

If it were the old Hori Kyoko, she would only feel embarrassed or very impatient when faced with Hori Yuriko's half-teasing, half-probing questions.

But this time.
"Not yet, but it should be soon~"

Kyoko Hori, who was making breakfast, said this casually without turning her head, which almost choked Yuriko Hori to death.

"What? It should be soon!?"

"Yes, I like Xiu, and Xiu likes me too, isn't this normal~"

Kyoko Hori still didn't turn around when she said these words, and she was even still flipping the frying pan in her hands, but the happy smile on the corners of her mouth was completely seen by Yuriko Hori, who was stunned.

"What about the girl who rushed onto the stage and forcefully kissed Iura-kun last time?" After a long while, Hori Yuriko came to her senses and couldn't help asking.

At the beginning, when she knew that Hori Kyoko liked Iura Hide, and that the two had been classmates for more than a year, and had even always been the best friends of the opposite sex except for their childhood friend Sho Sengoku, she was definitely happy and 100% supportive.

Although she had not met Iura Hide yet, she believed in Hori Kyoko's judgment. After all, Hori Kyoko was her daughter and she was so smart that she would definitely not make a mistake in choosing someone.

But after watching the video of Iura Hide's last performance, she became a little shaken.

It's not that she thinks Jingpu Xiu is not good, it's mainly because a "big star" like Jingpu Xiu is so likable.

It is no exaggeration to say that after watching Iura Hide's performance videos and listening to the songs written by Iura Hide, if she could be a dozen years younger, she would definitely become a fan of Iura Hide.

If you add that the two are best classmates or friends.

She was 100% sure that she would definitely fall in love with Iura Hide.

But from the perspective of a mother and someone who has experienced this, she really doesn't think highly of Hori Kyoko.

Even if Hori Kyoko really was dating Iura Hide, or even if they got married in the future, there would still be no way to feel at ease.

After all, you can still cheat even if you are married. What if Iura Hide likes another girl?
But she knew very well that Hori Kyoko's personality in this respect was exactly the same as hers.

When she fell in love with Hori Kyoko's father Hori Kyosuke, she was unanimously opposed by all her relatives and friends.

After all, Kyosuke Hori was just a poor student and a gangster at that time. He was completely useless except for his good looks, and his family conditions were very ordinary.

If it's just a relationship or just for fun, then there's no problem. But if the real purpose is marriage, which decent girl would fall in love with such a man?

Even if it's a hot girl, I'm afraid she wouldn't be interested in a man like this, right?
But she just fell in love with Kyosuke Hori at that time, and she wanted to marry him even if everyone opposed it.

Even if she had to go out and earn money on her own after marriage because Hori Kyosuke didn't make much money, she would never regret it.

She is already like this, how can she be qualified to persuade Hori Kyoko?
And to be honest, although she did not regret marrying Hori Kyosuke and did not regret becoming a corporate slave, she knew that she was really sorry to Hori Kyoko.

If possible, which high school girl in her prime would be willing to give up almost all of her spare time to not only take care of her younger brother, but also do all the housework?

Even though Gokou Ruri's family was so poor, most of the housework was still done by her mother.

But Kyoko Hori took on all of it.

When thinking about this, Hori Yuriko, who knew that her love was more important than anything else, could not say any words of persuasion. She could only use this kind of "indirect hint" to remind Hori Kyoko to be "cautious".

However, Hori Kyoko's answer made her feel a little 'desperate'.

"That girl is a friend that Xiu met in the talent class. Although that girl likes Xiu very much and always pesters Xiu, she is not a bad person, and she is definitely not Xiu's girlfriend~"
