I loaded the dream game

She sighed slightly, walked to Xia Zhi's side, squatted down, reached out and gently poked the cheek of the concentrating boy.

"?"

Xia Zhi turned around in confusion, but before he could ask, he felt something being handed to his mouth.

His many years of experience of being fed by Ailuko made him subconsciously open his mouth and swallow it. The freshness of the meat and the sweet fragrance of the rice quickly filled his entire mouth. He, who originally didn't feel anything, immediately felt a little hungry.

"Are you making sushi today?" After swallowing the food in his mouth, Xia Zhi looked at the girl and asked

"Because most of the ingredients lately are sea fish." Yukino said as she brought another piece of sushi to his mouth.

In order to ensure the taste of the ingredients, the rice of the sushi should be icy cold, but the sushi that Xia Zhi is eating now has a hint of warmth, as if it is the remaining temperature from the girl's hands.

Xia Zhi doesn’t care about this...or rather, it seems to taste a little better?

“…Really.”

Looking at the boy who was inexplicably lost in thought again, Xueno sighed helplessly and reached out to gently wipe the rice and sauce from the corner of his mouth.

He is so reliable in normal times, why is he so careless and needs care in some aspects?

She thought so in her heart.

Feeling the soft touch on his face, Xia Zhi finally came back to his senses, just in time to see the girl take her hand back, take out a tissue and carefully wipe her fingers.

He tilted his head slightly, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Did we make a mistake in the last step?"

Generally speaking, at times like this, wouldn't people say "Don't waste food" while putting the rice grains in their hands into their mouths?

"I'm sorry that I couldn't fulfill your fantasy, but compared to that kind of thing, I'm more concerned about food hygiene and safety," Yukino replied.

Am I something unhygienic?

Xia Zhi complained in his heart, and just when he wanted to refute something, he felt a force coming from the fishing rod in his hand again. He was startled, and without any hesitation, he immediately pulled the fishing rod back with force.

The fishing line was instantly pulled straight, and the fishing rod was bent into an arc. Hearing the sharp sound of the line being cut, Xia Zhi knew that he had finally caught a fish. And judging from the force fed back, it should be a big fish.

However, no matter how big the fish is, it is still too weak to compete with me in strength.

Xia Zhi thought so in his mind and increased the strength in his hands again.

...But, with his inexperience, he overlooked one thing. Logically speaking, humans should be much stronger than ordinary fish, but why do people need to use so many techniques when fishing, and...why do fishing rods have to be made to bend, elastic and tough?

"Snapped--!"

As Xia Zhi's strength increased, the next moment, the fishing rod that had been bent to the limit made a crisp sound and broke in front of his dazed sight.

"..."

Looking at the half-broken fishing rod gradually drifting away with the ocean current, Yukino felt a little relieved.

This way, at least he can finally come back and have a good meal, right?

As she was thinking this, she saw the young man put down the fishing rod in his hand, stood up silently, and walked towards the tool compartment in the car with an expressionless face.

"What are you going to do?" Xueno asked confusedly.

"We've spoiled them too much. Pump out the water!" Xia Zhi replied in an extremely firm tone.

"..."

Xueno turned around and looked at the endless sea outside the door, and couldn't help falling into silence.

She felt that she had spoiled the boy too much.

……

After some "persuasion" from Yukino, Xia Zhi finally gave up the idea of ​​draining the Pacific Ocean temporarily.

At the same time, he also gave up his fishing career which had just begun.

"So, what's the fun in such a boring thing?" Xia Zhi still couldn't understand why so many people could not even think about fishing?

After swallowing the last piece of sushi, he complained to the girl.

"Yes yes yes~"

Yukino rested her hands on the table, supporting her cheeks, and looked at the boy opposite her who was still muttering to herself. She agreed with him helplessly, but the corners of her mouth inadvertently rose slightly.

Although the days are dull and the scenery outside the window is also the same

But, magically, as long as I am with young boys, I don’t feel bored at all.

Xueno thought so in her heart, looking at the face of the boy opposite her, she felt that she could probably understand why Xia Zhi valued and cherished such ordinary things in "daily life" so much.

If possible, she hopes that this daily routine can continue forever...

As long as I'm with him...

.......

Chapter 601: Confession under the Starry Sky

What kind of gift does Yukino want?

At night, sitting on the roof of the RV, Xia Zhi looked at the starry sky above his head and thought to himself.

Since it is related to the Chinese Valentine's Day, then there is no doubt that it is a gift that is more inclined towards the kind of feeling between lovers, right?

If they were a couple, what kind of gift would Yukino want to receive?

I can’t think of anything about the summer solstice.

As expected, it’s better to ask the person himself about this kind of thing.

Just when he made up his mind, he suddenly heard a "click" sound not far away, and the skylight on the roof was pushed open.

"Are you still sitting here?" Looking at the young man sitting on the edge of the roof, Yukino asked with a slightly frown.

"It's so late, aren't you going to sleep?"

Although she said this, she still pushed open the sunroof, climbed onto the roof, and walked carefully towards the boy.

It seemed that because they were on the roof of the car, she seemed a little timid. Seeing this, Xia Zhi had to reach out and help her.

"I'm thinking about something very important." Xia Zhi replied after pulling her to sit next to him.

Yukino breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the boy and asked doubtfully, "Is it something important?"

Something that Xia Zhi could describe as “important”…could it be that the world is going to end again?

However, to her surprise, Xia Zhi's answer did not rise to that level, but instead involved herself:

"Yukino-san, do you like flowers?"

Yukino was slightly stunned for a moment. Although she was a little confused, she still answered: "There are very few girls who don't like flowers, right?"

makes sense……

Xia Zhi thought to himself, and then hesitated.

But isn’t it a little too ordinary?

After thinking for a moment, he continued, "What about chocolate?"

"I don't mind...but I'm not particularly looking forward to it."

"How about an autographed photo of Eluko?"

"...?"

The gap was too big, and Yukino didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"It has cat ears." Xia Zhi said as he took out his phone and flipped through a photo. He shared it with the girl and asked her as if to show off, "How is it? Very cute, isn't it?"

Looking at the cute girl on the screen with a pair of furry cat ears, blushing cheeks, and shyly not daring to look at the camera, Yukino admitted that she was indeed moved.

But now is not the time to focus on this.

She tried hard to look away from the photo, took a deep breath, and after re-adjusting her mood, she looked at the boy suspiciously and asked, "So, what do you want to say?"

"Nothing, I'm just thinking about what kind of Chinese Valentine's Day gift you like." Xia Zhi put the phone back and replied.

Valentine's Day gift?

Yukino was slightly stunned.

"Is this what you said, the important thing?"

"Is there any problem?" Xia Zhi asked as a matter of course.

"..." Xueno pursed her lips.

Putting aside the question of why he specially prepared a gift for himself on Tanabata Festival, it is impossible not to be moved by the boy's answer, but...

"Isn't it inappropriate to use another girl's photo as a Chinese Valentine's Day gift for a girl?" She asked after taking a deep breath.

"That's Ai Lu Ke, you won't be jealous of her, right?" Xia Zhi looked at her strangely.

Who is jealous?

Yukino blushed slightly and gave the boy a displeased look.

and……

"As for the Qixi Festival, it should have passed by now, right?"

Even if I really wanted to prepare gifts or something, it's too late now.

"No." Xia Zhi raised his head, pointed his finger at the starry sky above his head and said, "Look over there."

Yukino raised her head in confusion and looked in the direction he pointed.

Then she saw that above the starry sky, at the two ends of the Milky Way formed by the starlight, two stars suddenly lit up.

The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, who met at the two ends of the Magpie Bridge, became the two brightest stars in the night sky.

"Look, aren't those the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl?" Xia Zhi withdrew his hand and asked, his tone as normal as usual, as if the person who lit up the stars just now was not him.

Although the scene before my eyes was very surprising, but...

Xue No took a deep breath, turned around and looked at him and said, "I need to correct you. The celestial phenomenon of the "Magpie Bridge Meeting" is not only visible on the Tanabata Festival. After entering summer, as long as the weather is clear, we can clearly see the geometric figure called the Summer Triangle composed of Vega, Altair and Deneb."

Summer Solstice:…

There's no need to sabotage it at this time, right?

So, science students really have no romance.

He complained in his mind.

"and……"

Xue No paused, slightly turned her eyes away, and said with a slightly blushing face: "Actually, Xia Zhi, you don't have to think about what gift to give me."

The girl's voice gradually became quieter.

"As long as it's a gift from you, I'll like it..."

"..."

Seeing the girl looking away, not daring to look at him, Xia Zhi thought for a moment, as if he had thought of something, and suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Come to think of it, it's so late now, if you're very sleepy, you can go to bed directly, there's no need to come up to me, right?"

You can't be unable to sleep without me, right?

He didn't say the second half of the sentence, but the girl seemed to understand. Her body stiffened slightly and her cheeks seemed to become even redder.

Looking at her blushing cheeks, Xia Zhi chuckled as if he had gotten an answer, then turned around and looked at the starry sky above his head again.

"Yukino-san, do you want to see the starry sky lights again?" he asked.

...Starry sky lights? In this place?

Upon hearing this, Yukino also raised her head and looked at the starry sky above her head.

The sky was filled with twinkling stars, densely filling the black night sky. Because it was on the sea and there was nothing blocking the view, it looked as if the entire starry sky was upside down, covering the world.

Although the situation is very similar to that in the tent, it is fundamentally different... Obviously, it is impossible to use starry sky lights in this kind of place, right?

Just when Xue Noi was wondering about this, she saw the boy reaching out his hand towards the starry sky above her head. Then the next moment, she felt the world around her suddenly become brighter.

Under the girl's stunned gaze, in the starry night sky, countless twinkling stars lit up one by one, from left to right, from the other end of the Milky Way to the end of sight, the bright starlight filled the field of vision, and the entire starry sky was shining with dreamy and brilliant light.

Here, under the brilliant starry sky, even the sea surface is illuminated, reflecting the little lights in the night sky. It looks as if the stars have fallen into the sea, making the whole world seem to have turned into the starry sky, becoming dreamy and unreal.
