Living in Tokyo, all I want to do is laze around.

However, although it looks the same as before, it no longer has that dreamlike beauty.

She wasn't very happy, and the colorful flowers around her seemed to lose their luster along with her mood.

Kai Uesugi smiled, took the half-eaten ice cream cone from her left hand, and held it to her lips.

"Kai-kun...?"

"Eat."

Somewhat doubtful, Hanabi did as she was told, taking a bite of the purple ice cream with her delicate lips.

"What does it taste like?" Uesugi Kai asked.

"It's sweet." Hanabi pursed her lips, her curious, violet eyes looking at him.

Kai Uesugi flashed his best smile, "Since it's sweet, Hanabi should smile. She looks prettier when she smiles."

Seeing his handsome smile, Hanabi blushed slightly, her heart fluttering with sweet excitement.

The sweet taste of the ice cream seemed to be surging and dancing in my mouth.

"Come on, smile."

Kai Uesugi held the ice cream cone in one hand and used his two thumbs to pull open the corners of her mouth.

He forced a smile out of a young girl.

not bad.

He quickly raised his camera and snapped a picture of what looked rather strange.

In the photo, Hana Maru Hanabi is wearing a small straw hat, holding a pink azalea in her right hand, and has a silly yet happy girlish smile on her face.

Kai Uesugi put down the camera and confidently examined the screen with both hands:

"Pretty good."

He turned the camera screen toward Hanabi Hanabi, "Hanabi, take a look."

"How silly," she said softly, looking at herself in the photo.

"This is Hanabi's own laughter."

"Kai-kun forcibly pulled him!"

Kai Uesugi dodged her hand that was trying to snatch the camera. "I won't pull it. Your face looks so bitter. A bitter smile doesn't look good."

Hanabi Hanamaru glanced at his height, gave up on trying to take the camera from him, and said in a weak voice:

"It's better to suffer than to be foolish..."

"Only silly girls are lucky."

Hanabi Hanamaru didn't know how to refute him; the ice cream in her hand was still the best.

Taking the opportunity, Uesugi Kai took another picture of a groundhog eating ice cream, looking like a girl.

"Kai-kun is so cunning." Hanamaru Hanabi angrily raised her head and bared her teeth in a show of defiance.

Other girls might be fierce, but when it comes to her, she's cute and fierce.

Kai Uesugi laughed and said, "Little kitten."

The kitten's fireworks are unexpectedly cute.

Just as he picked up the camera to take a picture, Hanabi Hanabi quickly ran away and refused to play with him anymore.

"The kitten runs pretty fast," Uesugi Kai said with a smile, putting down his camera.

Xiao Aiyi stood at his feet, holding up the ice cream she was holding for him:

"Brother, your ice cream will melt if you don't eat it soon."

Kai Uesugi smiled and accepted it, saying, "The ice cream isn't as sweet as your Hanabi-neechan's."

"Is Hanabi-neechan sweet?"

"It's the sweetness of life that we can't live without. Let me teach you something in advance: sugar is the most basic nutrient for the body and is responsible for most of the body's functions, especially the brain. Without sugar, the brain will not want to move."

Aiyi is very clever; she can extract the correct information from his words.

"If the brother doesn't have Firework Sister, he won't have any sugar, and his brain won't work."

Kai Uesugi ruffled her hair: "You're quite smart."

###Chapter 311 The Dream of Wisteria###

Gladiolus, hydrangea, silverleaf chrysanthemum, yellow chrysanthemum...

The flower shop has a wide variety of colorful flowers, but if he had to choose flowers for Huohua, he would still choose white lilies.

Clean, elegant, and refreshing, the moment you gently inhale the beautiful fragrance of flowers, your heart is filled with joy.

Hanabi Hanabi was just that kind of girl in his mind.

Kai Uesugi adorned her straw hat with a bunch of lilies she had bought, then shrank back and held the hat with both hands.

"Are you done...?"

"Alright." Uesugi Kai lowered his hands and smiled at her.

A small straw hat adorned with white lilies, below which lay a delicately drawn face, her eyes gazing upwards, every movement brimming with the ethereal beauty of a young girl.

"How can you look at yourself like that? Let me take a picture of you."

Upon hearing that she was to have her picture taken, the girl quickly straightened her posture, her small hand, adorned with a ring, clasped together in front of her white dress.

Click! This is the third photo of the day.

"Hmm, this one would make a great phone screen wallpaper." Uesugi Kai said to the little head peeking over beside her while fiddling with the camera, "What do you think of this photo, Hana-chan?"

"It's very beautiful... but why are they all filming fireworks?"

“I’m a man, why would I photograph handsome men instead of beautiful girls?” Uesugi Kai examined the camera screen carefully again. “The girl is beautiful, and the background is also very artistic. Among the endless stream of people, only the girl standing on the side of the street is the most special.”

"Is it really that good-looking..." Hanabi Hanabi muttered.

"Don't believe me? There are so many tourists here, I could just grab any one of them and they'd all say you're good-looking."

"And what about in Kai-kun's eyes?"

"Me? Come closer and I'll tell you."

"No way, there are so many people here."

Seeing that Hanabi Hanabi had actually dodged, Uesugi Kai couldn't help but admire how clever she had become. He had originally wanted to take the opportunity to kiss her and see her embarrassed and shy expression.

They were waiting for two ladies who needed to use the restroom at the park entrance, which was filled with irises.

As he waited, Uesugi Kai encountered another person he disliked.

"Hanamaru-kun? Haha, what a coincidence."

The person had the same surprised expression as someone who had unexpectedly run into a classmate while traveling.

"Sekine-san..." Hanabi Hanamaru took a step back and leaned against Kai Uesugi, nodding politely in response.

With a smile on her face, Sekine Sagara extended her hand to Uesugi Kai beside her: "Hello, Uesugi-san."

"Hello," Uesugi Kai's expression remained unchanged. "I didn't know Sekine-san was here...?"

How come you're everywhere?

Kai Uesugi would never believe that he had no interest in fireworks.

"The wisteria in Tochigi Prefecture has bloomed twice this year. I was planning to come here today to enjoy the scenery. I really didn't expect it to be such a coincidence."

Sekine Sagara glanced at the lilies on Hanamaru Hanabi's straw hat.

"I wonder if we could enjoy the flowers together? It would be best if we could walk together with two acquaintances we meet."

Kai Uesugi: "I'm sorry, I came with my family today, so I can't be with Sekine-san."

"That's a real shame," Sekine Sagara said with a regretful expression, but also with a sense of propriety. "Then I won't bother Hanamaru-kun any longer."

He turned around and quickly disappeared among the many passengers.

They came suddenly, and they left suddenly.

His purpose in appearing is unclear.

"Hanabi, does he harass you usually?" Uesugi Kai asked.

"No... Sekine usually keeps his distance... but Sakaki-chan has never liked him."

"What about the gift? Did he send you another one?"

"There aren't any left either."

When Uesugi Kai recalled his two previous encounters with Sekine Sagara, he realized that Sagara had always appeared suddenly, in ways that shouldn't have happened, but each time with a plausible reason.

Could it really have been a chance encounter?

Kai Uesugi didn't intend to think about that problem anymore.

"Does Hanabi think that this Sekine-kun has a crush on you?"

"Yes... I guess so... He used to give Hanabi gifts... although Sakaki rejected them all... Sakaki even told Hanabi that he was a playboy, but Sekine-san actually has a pretty good reputation among his classmates. He comes from a wealthy family and is pursued by many girls but has always been single."

He's rich, pursued by many but still single, a top student at Tokyo University of the Arts, and has an artistic flair.

Such men are indeed very popular with girls.

Why chase after fireworks when you're already surrounded by flowers?

Kai Uesugi turned his head to look at Hanabi's face; indeed, she was special.

Perhaps it is precisely because of her uniqueness that she attracts other men.

It's not her fault. Uesugi Kai himself also receives love letters from other girls and spends time alone with other girls, but Hanabi doesn't say anything about it.

This comes from her understanding.

"Alright, let's not talk about him anymore. As long as Hanabi doesn't walk alone on deserted streets, it's fine."

"Dad reminded me about fireworks."
