"I see. I understand." Kanako seemed to know something. She nodded and said with a smile, "It's because the summer solstice is special, right?"

special?

Kofutani Sanae tilted her head slightly, feeling somewhat confused.

Is this the special one she understands?

No, no, no, that shouldn't be the case, right? How could that be possible? Right, Suwako-sama?

"Well, I guess so..." Suwako answered vaguely.

Sanae: ….

Chapter 235: It says that you can’t disturb us, but it doesn’t say that we can’t sleep together, right?

In the morning, after getting up and washing up, Xia Zhi came to the door of the familiar room, knocked gently, and called out in a low voice:

"elder brother?"

After waiting for a while, there was no sound in the room. It seemed that he had not woken up yet.

Xia Zhi was not surprised. Rather, she would be more surprised if her brother could get up early on weekends.

However, this kind of schedule is still somewhat unhealthy. I have to remind my brother to correct it in the future.

While thinking about this, Xia Zhi went downstairs and soon saw a petite figure squatting next to the cat's bed.

"Good morning, Hubie," she greeted the girl.

Hubie turned his head to look at her, thought for a moment, and nodded gently: "Okay..."

Is this some new way of saying hello? Xia Zhi thought.

Speaking of which, she has always had a doubt.

Normally, children of Hubie's age should like to stay in bed, but Hubie gets up very early every day, and I have never seen her stay in bed.

In fact, today she got up more than an hour earlier than usual. When she went downstairs, she saw the girl squatting beside the cat's bed feeding the kittens.

This made Xia Zhi 063 have a somewhat unrealistic suspicion in his mind: Could it be that she had been waiting here since last night?

"Hubby, you get up so early every day." Xia Zhi couldn't help but sigh.

If only the brother could be 27% as hardworking as the girl.

After thinking for a while, she whispered, "Brother is still sleeping now, don't disturb him for now."

"Well... Hubie knows."

Hubie nodded.

After all, I just came out of the room...

"As for breakfast, I'm sorry it's too late to prepare it now. What would you like to eat, Hubie? I'll go to the convenience store across the street and buy some."

"It's okay..." Hubie shook his head and replied, "Hubby... I don't need to eat breakfast..."

"You won't grow tall if you don't eat breakfast... By the way, there's the bread I bought yesterday on the table. You can heat it up before eating it." Xia Zhi said, touching the girl's head.

She finally understood why her brother liked to touch Hubie's hair. The soft touch was indeed very comfortable, (bidc) even better than touching Xiaoxue, making her unable to stop for a while.

"Meow?" The kitten who was eating looked up in confusion.

...Is that so? Hubie tilted his head slightly.

The girl's cute look made Xia Zhi fall in love with her even more.

"It feels like I have two pets at home." She couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

It turned out to be the right decision to promise my brother to take Hubie in... Who doesn't like a cute girl?

But then again...it seems like Hubie has always eaten very little?

How could this be possible? She was still growing.

Just when Xia Zhi was thinking about whether to buy some more eggs, milk or something like that for the girl to supplement her nutrition, she heard the girl's voice asking.

"Xia Zhi...are you going on a long journey?"

His eyes fell on the backpack behind Xia Zhi, and Hubie asked in confusion.

"Well, I'm going to be out for a while today, so you guys will have to take care of lunch on your own."

After thinking for a while, Xia Zhi reminded again: "Remember to wake up your brother before nine o'clock."

Otherwise, he would definitely sleep until noon, right?

"Hubby knows."

Hubie nodded slightly, then looked at the girl and asked kindly, "Do you need Hubie to take you there?"

"No, it's quite far."

"It doesn't matter." Hubie replied: "If Hubie goes around the earth...it will only take less than half an hour..."

About sixty-seven times the speed of sound?

Xia Zhi did a simple calculation in his mind and quickly came up with the answer.

"That's really fast..." She sighed, and after thinking about it, she refused: "But it's not that far, and Yin Zi has already booked a taxi, so forget it."

Obviously, she didn't take the girl's joke seriously.

"OK then……"

Hubie nodded with some regret.

Taking out his cell phone and taking a look, seeing that the time was almost up, Xia Zhi quickly stood up and walked towards the door.

"Then I'll leave the house to you for now."

After watching the girl leave, Hubie withdrew his gaze and turned back to look at the kitten at his feet.

At this moment, it had eaten up all the cat food in the bowl, and was looking at Hubie with its little head raised, making "meowing" sounds, as if begging for food.

Recalling Xia Zhi's advice before he told himself not to raise the kitten as an orange cat, Hubie thought about it, picked up the kitten, and placed it in the cat wheel beside him.

"You can only continue eating after you run 5,000 laps."

After giving these serious instructions, she ignored the kitten lying in the running wheel with a confused look on its face, got up and went upstairs to the door of Xia Zhi's room.

Reach out, turn the handle, and open the door.

The room was extremely quiet, and still maintained the same layout as when Hubie left. It was obvious that the owner of the room had not woken up yet.

Hubie thought about it, turned around, closed the door, locked it, walked to the bed, lifted the quilt and got into bed.

Xia Zhi felt a weight on his body while sleeping. He opened his eyes dazedly and asked in confusion: "...Suwako?"

"No." Hubie replied.

"Eluco...?"

"Who is that?" Hubie tilted his head and asked in confusion.

"It's Hubie..."

Xia Zhi yawned, hugged the girl in his arms, and asked dazedly, "Why are you back again?"

"I want to... take a nap..." Hubie replied softly.

She heard the sound of steady breathing and looked up, only to find that the boy had fallen asleep again without her noticing.

"..."

After thinking for a while, Hubie did not start the sleep program, but gently leaned his head on the boy's chest, listened to his heartbeat, and quietly closed his eyes...

Chapter 236: Xia Zhi: It's a shrine I've never heard of

After waking up naturally after a long time, Xia Zhi stretched comfortably, sat up from the bed, looked at the bright sunshine outside the window, and his mood became better.

"Good morning, Hubie."

He smiled and greeted the petite girl who was lying beside him, looking at him with a pair of clear big eyes.

Hubie tilted his head slightly, thought for a moment, and then nodded in response: "Good morning... Summer Solstice..."

"Didn't you sleep just now?" Xia Zhi asked curiously.

"Um……"

Hubie nodded slightly and explained, "Because... Xia Zhi is with me... so I don't want to sleep..."

I'm really sorry that my presence disturbed your sleep.

Xia Zhi complained in his heart.

He rubbed the girl's head out of habit, then stood up and opened the window. The fresh air accompanied by the breeze blew in his face, which lifted his somewhat groggy spirits as he had just woken up.

A beautiful day begins!

Xia Zhi thought to himself with satisfaction.

After making his bed, getting dressed and washing up, he walked out of the bathroom refreshed and glanced towards the door.

The pair of plush slippers belonging to Xia Zhi were lying quietly in the shoe cabinet. It seemed that the girl had already gone out.

Xia Zhi didn't care. He went to the kitchen and made himself a cup of hot milk. Then he thought about it and made another cup for Hubby.

Unlike the country in his previous life, people in this country did not have the habit of drinking hot water, so homes generally did not have thermoses at all times. Even Xia Zhi only began to get used to drinking boiled water under the influence of the summer solstice.

After bringing out two cups of hot milk, Xia Zhi saw the bread on the table again. After thinking about it, he took a few slices and put them in the microwave to heat them up slightly.

Although it can be eaten without heating, it will not taste as good as after heating. It only takes a dozen seconds anyway.

Taking out the hot bread and putting it back on the table, Xia Zhi nodded with satisfaction.

In this way, a simple breakfast is ready.

As he thought this, he took out his phone and checked the time.

- 15:23

"..."

Looking at the numbers displayed on the mobile phone screen, Xia Zhi fell silent.

...The beautiful day hasn't even begun, but it seems like it's almost over?

Hubie looked at the dish on the table, which couldn't be simpler, and tilted his head. After thinking for a moment, he looked at Xia Zhi and reminded him considerately:

"If you only eat this little for lunch... you won't grow taller..."

After thinking about it, as if to increase the credibility of her words, she added:

"That's what Xia Zhi said..."

"…It's just afternoon tea."

Xia Zhi put away his phone as if nothing had happened. After thinking for a while, he took out two more slices of bread, spread butter and jam on them as a snack for himself.

"Aren't you going to have lunch?" Hubie asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"I'm in a hurry, so I won't eat."

"Oh..." The girl nodded, not quite understanding.

Come to think of it, since it’s already around three or four in the afternoon, then Xia Zhi should be back by now, right?

Thinking this, Xia Zhi picked up his phone again, found the number with the note "Kitahara family poster girl", and pressed the dial button.

……

Although it was a group extracurricular activity, Xia Zhi didn't feel any sense of group at all.

No matter what she wanted to do, there would always be someone who would complete it for her first, intentionally or unintentionally, leaving her with no sense of participation at all, and in the end she could only stand by and watch.

Xia Zhi didn't like this feeling, but she couldn't blame the classmates who helped her out of kindness.

So after thinking about it, she asked her teacher for a transfer from the tree-planting group with more people to the garbage cleaning group, which tended to act alone.
