Beiyuan Risa pursed her lips and met her husband's gaze.

When their eyes met, her eyes reflected that familiar face.

"What do you mean?"

Beiyuan Zhengyu saw the hesitation in his wife's eyes.

"What about the grandson and granddaughter?" Beiyuan Risa paused, "With the current progress of their relationship, do you think you can really retire?"

Of course, having said that, she does not object to taking care of the children for her precious daughter.

Rather, she had been looking forward to it for a long time, looking forward to the continuation of this bloodline.

Beiyuan Zhengyu fell silent.

After a while, he muttered something.

"That's good!"

He couldn't wait to do that!

Life after retirement is very boring. Wouldn't it be very happy to have a grandson or granddaughter to take care of?

However, based on his understanding of A Che, there is a high probability that the other party will choose to bring it himself.

By then, he and Risa would have to think of a solution.

Otherwise, the old couple may not be able to see their grandson and granddaughter frequently.

Chapter 447 Between best friends

The next day, at : in the morning, in a street cafe in Shibuya District.

"Rina, Rina, this is the only time you can think of me."

Sitting on the sofa in the booth, Hoshino Ai, who looked like he was still awake, stretched out his body and let out a soft coquettish voice.

This is not so much a complaint as a certain degree of coquettishness.

But if you insist on saying it, this is correct. After all, ever since Rina started eating at the neighbor's house, the number of times they came out has become less and less.

Of course, this is also related to her own work intensity.

God knows what is going on, but there are more and more things happening this year.

Yes, although in terms of working hours, I haven’t done much overtime in the past two months, there are more things that can’t be accommodated during working hours.

According to statistics from one of her colleagues, the things they handle every day this year have increased by nearly % compared with last year.

"What you said is as if I was in trouble and abandoned you in the end."

Rina Toshima rolled her eyes coquettishly and pushed the black forest cake in front of Hoshino Ai.

As a best friend, she actually knew that there was nothing wrong with what she said if she insisted on saying it.

Since the middle of last year, the two of them have been going out together less and less.

"Is this compensation?"

Hoshino Ai looked at the black forest cake in front of her, then raised her eyebrows and looked at Rina Toshima, blinking her eyes, and there was a bit more teasing in her tone.

"You can understand it this way." Tsugumi Seina pursed her lips, pretending to be a little reluctant but still had to give it, and then said the classic words that only tsundere characters would say, "If you don't want it, give it back to me."

puff.

After they stared at each other in silence for a moment, it was Hoshino Ai who couldn't help but burst out laughing first, and the fatigue from not getting enough sleep in the previous second also disappeared like a passing cloud.

"Let me be honest..." Hoshino Ai took a few deep breaths and suppressed his smile, "Rina, you are really not suitable for playing a tsundere character. You don't have that taste, do you understand?"

Anyway, she couldn't hold back her laughter and lost her composure.

But then again, it was precisely because of Rina's carefree, optimistic, and occasionally drama-loving personality that they became friends in the first place.

If you think about it carefully, Rina was simply the most dazzling star in the class at that time. In terms of grades, she might not be the best, but when it came to intimacy, no one could compare to her.

Girls are willing to gather around her, and many boys are also willing to chat with her.

Of course, now that I think about it, most of the boys who always talk to Rina have "unreasonable thoughts".

It's just a pity that Rina is not interested in them.

"You are jealous of my talent."

Rina Toshima rolled her eyes, but the corners of her mouth raised slightly unconsciously.

As the person who knows herself best, she knows too well that she is not suitable for a tsundere role.

It can even be said that she almost couldn't hold herself together during the performance.

But, as the saying goes, you have to do a full set of acting. At this time, you still have to be a little tougher.

Hold on to the character until the end.jpg

"Yes."

Hoshino Ai rolled his eyes, picked up a small fork, put a small piece of cake on it, and put it into his mouth.

As the delicate taste bloomed on the tip of her tongue, the slightly bitter but sweet taste of the Black Forest cake instantly hit her taste buds.

"good to eat!"

Hoshino Ai narrowed his eyes with a happy face.

Whenever she worked overtime until late at night, she would hypnotize herself by saying, "The holiday will be coming in a few days, and then I can eat delicious desserts."

Then...

After finally welcoming the holiday, she didn't want to go out alone, so she lay at home.

By the time she came to her senses again, her break was over and she had to go to work again.

"You are..." Seeing her best friend like this, Tsugumi Seina didn't dislike her, but her lips twitched. "Surprise inspection, when was the last time you came here?"

Theoretically speaking, Ai should not be like this.

After all, judging from Ai's recent work schedule, it is still at a normal level, at least not like before, where she has not been working overtime for nearly a month.

A long time ago)"

Hoshino Ai put down his fork, lay down on the table, and returned to his original lazy state.

"If you say it, you haven't said it yet."

Toshiro pursed her lips, turned her head, and looked out the window.

Dazzling rays of light were reflected on the outer glass of the high-rise buildings in the distance. The sunlight slanted into the commercial street and sprinkled on the sidewalk. As the heat spread, young people in fashionable and cool clothes quickened their pace to avoid the sunlight, which was already faintly hot.

If nothing else goes wrong, in one to two hours, the heat wave will burst out with its due power.

The weather forecast says that this summer should be almost the same as last year in terms of temperature.

"By the way, tell me, how should I refuse?"

Hoshino Ai held the side of her face with her hands, tilted her head, and stared blankly at the busy street.

"How to refuse?" Toshiro Sei Rina paused, "You mean, that colleague who keeps asking you out?"

Ai told her about this and also sent her the colleague's photo.

To put it very objectively, the male policeman had quite regular features and could be described as sunny and handsome.

But, like this kind of thing, sometimes it's really quite mysterious.

If you like it, you like it; if you don't like it, you don't like it.

"Yes." Hoshino Ai groaned with a headache, "To be fair, his conditions are quite good in all aspects, but the problem is, I have no feelings for him."

She didn't want to just settle for nothing in her life.

"If you don't feel it, then refuse!"

Rina Toshima said this quite cooperatively.

"Isn't that back to the original point?" Xingye Ai bit her red lips lightly, "How can I refuse?"

Until now, she had not thought of a suitable rejection plan.

"Just say you don't like him." Toshimaru Rina shrugged, "You don't want to be more tactful, do you?"

In this regard, she has always been like this.

The easier it is to say no, the easier it will be to accept.

As the saying goes, long-term pain is worse than short-term pain.

"But the problem is that the other person didn't confess, and the invitation was always made as a friend. The most important thing is..." Hoshino sighed sadly, "This person has a certain limit for advancement and retreat, and I can't find a suitable entry point. "

This is what gives her the most headache.

You say no, others grasp it very well, but they are stuck at a subtle distance. The most important thing is that others do not confess their love lightly, or say they like you, they just want to be friends with you as a colleague.

But anyone can see that this so-called 'friend' is not a pure friendship at all.

"My suggestion is, instead of internalizing yourself, it's better not to think so much." Toshimaro Rina picked up her cup of coffee and took a sip, "It's enough to directly express your position that you are not interested in him, and you also feel What's there to be embarrassed about? We are all adults, so don't go around in circles.

“If you are interested, you are interested; if you are not interested, you are not interested.

"In other words, what does that person have to do with it? If you reject him, will it affect your normal work?"

This was the only possibility she could think of.

"That's not true."

Xingye Ai shook his head.

Really compared to the so-called relationship, she is much tougher than the other party.

It's just that she has never used this.

"That's alright." Rina Toshima put down the coffee cup and looked away from the window. "I think what someone said is right. Some people are too purposeful and will be fooled at a glance. see through.

"If someone tells you that he wants to be your friend, why don't you just choose to wear it?

"Even if the other person looks sad and then says he or she doesn't mean that, you can just smile and say 'Oh, I thought too much, sorry', isn't that fine?

“Besides, you don’t owe the other person anything.

"The key is……"

Rina Toshima glanced at her best friend thoughtfully.

"If I remember correctly." She paused, "This doesn't seem to be the first time you've rejected someone's confession, isn't it? Isn't this a familiar process? You should be able to do it."

Anyway, in her impression, her best friend's relationship was much smoother than hers. Although they were both single mothers until last year (they have been single since birth), Ai was often confessed to.

"I just..." Hoshino Ai instinctively wanted to explain, but suddenly realized that there was nothing to explain at all. It was because she was too worried and thought it would cause a bad discussion. But the problem was that now she was being gossiped about by her colleagues. We also discussed a lot, "Okay, I think too much."

"That's it." Tsugumi Seina raised her eyebrows, then raised her hand and called the waiter on the other side, "Add another Napoleon cake over here."

"I want two!"

A white and tender arm was raised.

Hoshino Ai, who felt relieved, also added a share.

"it is good!"

The waitress nodded slightly, wrote down what the two people wanted, and then hurried to the kitchen.

"Then..."

Xingye Ai raised his eyebrows and looked at his best friend with an ambiguous expression.

"Tell me carefully."

"what?"

"Who-is?"

Hoshino Ai lengthened his tone and his eyes became narrower.

She is very interested in the gossip about her best friends!
