He saw it last time in the hospital. He was a real violent guy.

Asami's smile widened: "Hehe, uncle is worried about me, I'm so glad."

Hachiman was a little amused and confused. Chizuru's grandmother was still here behind him. What nonsense were you talking about?

When Mami was about to say something, she saw a woman walking out of the door.

Mami's smile froze for a moment, then she said, "Chizuru, uncle, I had a lot of fun today. The next time we meet will be after school starts."

Chizuru nodded gently, and then heard Asami say, "Uncle, don't get off the car if you hear anything later."

Just when Hachiman was a little confused, he saw Asami getting out of the car.

"Hey, isn't this our Nanami family's precious daughter? She just came back after 10 o'clock at night. Could it be that she was hanging out with some weird people? Your father is very worried that you will learn bad things."

The woman's voice was very sharp and high-pitched, making it uncomfortable to listen to. However, if it wasn't uncomfortable, she wouldn't have said such words.

I saw Mami walking into the house in silence.

"Who is in this car? A man? Say something. Can't you learn from your brother?" The woman continued to scold, as if she wanted everyone in the room to hear her voice.

Chizuru couldn't help but frown. She had heard Asami herself say that she had no mother.

This woman's unkind words and attitude made her seem like she was the mistress of this house.

In other words, she is Mami's stepmother?

Just when Chizuru was about to go down to check the situation, she heard a voice that was louder than her stepmother's, "Chizuru-chan, uncle, see you at the beginning of school!"

In other words, he didn't want the two of them to get involved. At this time, the old man said in a calm tone: "Every family has its own problems. If you are just friends, don't get involved in other people's family affairs."

Although these words may sound a bit cold, they are probably the old man's life insights gained over the past few decades.

Hachiman was silent for a moment, then finally activated the crown and left Asami's house.

It would take some time to get back to the apartment rented by Chizuru, so only the grandparents and Hachiman were left in the car.

Qianhe felt that there were no "outsiders" anymore, and finally couldn't help asking: "Grandma, why do you want me to wear a gymnastics suit? Don't you know how embarrassed I am? If you want to see it, can't I wear it for you when I get back?"

Hachiman's fingers trembled slightly, and he remembered what happened in the guest room just now. Because the tattoos on the inside of the thigh were too dense, Hachiman's movements were originally gentle, but later he couldn't care less and his movements became a little rough, and Chizuru couldn't help but make a sound.

And the girl was obviously moved.

Neither Chizuru nor Hachiman seemed able to convince themselves that the other party was just a friend.

Even if it's not voluntary, which friends of the opposite sex would do such a thing with each other?

Hachiman himself thought that he must admire Chizuru very much. He even liked her simple, optimistic and hardworking character.

He is also willing to help such girls realize their dreams and live a better life.

As to whether this kind of liking can be equated with love between men and women, he has not considered it yet.

What's more, Chizuru herself has a boyfriend, and she is self-aware. She is very fickle and has let down many people, so she doesn't want to destroy other people's feelings.

If they said that their previous ambiguity with Chizuru was due to a series of coincidences and they were forced to do so, then at this moment they could still be considered to have a clear conscience, but if they continued to do so in the future, it would be hard to explain.

Then, Hachiman heard Sayuri's grandmother say, "Let's talk about this when we get home."

Although Chizuru's grandmother doesn't talk much, her attitude is unquestionable. Chizuru is mostly obedient in front of her grandmother, so she didn't say anything?

However, Grandma Qianzuru, who had always been taciturn, seemed to become talkative at this moment.

"Mr. Hikigaya, can I call you that?" Sayuri's grandmother asked softly.

"You're welcome. Just call me by my name." Hachiman still had respect for the old man. Her husband died early. After her son and daughter-in-law passed away unexpectedly, she raised Chizuru alone. She had to stay in the hospital until her body could no longer bear it.

But Sayuri's grandmother still kept her distance and asked, "Mr. Hikigaya, I heard that Chizuru is your employee. I want to ask, how did you two know each other?"

We met when your granddaughter was a girlfriend-for-hire.

Only through the rearview mirror did Hachiman see Chizuru's pleading expression.

In fact, she had kept the fact of renting a girlfriend a secret from her grandmother.

She didn't want to make her grandmother worry and think that she was doing something improper.

Even though he had a clear conscience.

So Hachiman said, "We met during the audition. Chizuru performed very well. The vice president, the director and I all think that Miss Chizuru is a talent."

Sayuri nodded slightly, her expression indifferent, making it hard to tell what she was thinking.

However, it is not difficult to guess what the other party is thinking. What is the purpose of a big boss taking extra care of a small actor?

Because he knows too well how dangerous society is, the old man would not easily believe the claim that he is attracted by his granddaughter's talent.

You are fooling the little girl here.

Chizuru was somewhat relieved. At least the rental girlfriend thing was not exposed. However, she did not expect that Sayuri's grandmother would continue to ask: "Mr. Hikigaya, may I ask, are you married?"

Although strictly speaking, Hachiman was in a Schrödinger superposition state of being single and married at the moment, he knew what the old man wanted to know, so he said bluntly: "Well, I'm married."

When Chizuru heard what Hachiman said, she couldn't help but pursed her lips. In her mind, the charming moments when she and Hachiman were "entangled" in the guest room disappeared a little.

Sayuri's grandmother asked again: "Do you have a child?"

Hachiman answered honestly again, "I already have a child."

Sayuri's grandmother praised sincerely: "At such a young age, he has a successful career and a happy family. Mr. Hikigaya is really a happy man."

Hachiman always felt that the old man had something else in his words, as if he was saying, "Since you are so happy, you are contaminated by your granddaughter."

But maybe Hachiman was thinking the wrong thing, or maybe the other party was just being polite.

"Thank you." Hachiman nodded gently.

However, Grandma Sayuri just kept looking at Chizuru who lowered her head and didn't say anything.

About half an hour later, the grandparents got off the car in front of the apartment.

Grandma Sayuri said softly, "Thank you so much for troubling you tonight, Mr. Hikigaya."

Hachiman just smiled and said, "It's nothing. After all, Ms. Chizuru is also my friend."

Then he said to Chizuru: "Then Miss Chizuru, see you next time."

After saying that, he didn't stay long and drove away.

Chizuru didn't say anything. Grandma Sayuri asked softly as she watched the tail lights gradually disappearing into the distance.

"Chizuru, do you like this Mr. Hikigaya?"

Chapter 4 Forbidden Delicacy K

"Chizuru, do you like this Mr. Hikigaya?"

Grandma Sayuri's voice was calm and gentle, but her words exploded in Chizuru's ears like a thunderclap.

Chizuru couldn't help but widen her eyes and looked at her grandmother, then quickly denied: "Grandma, what are you talking about? It's not true. Mr. Hikigaya and I are just friends."

Sayuri's grandmother looked straight at Chizuru and met her eyes. Soon, Chizuru lowered her head as if she was guilty, not daring to continue looking into her grandmother's eyes, for fear that she would see something.

After a moment's silence, Sayuri's grandmother said, "It's cold, let's go inside."

Chizuru nodded quickly and walked up the stairs of the apartment. When passing by Kazuya's room, Sayuri's grandmother asked: "Chizuru, is this Kazuya-kun's room?"

Chizuru responded and said, "Well, I told you before, my room and Kazuya-kun's room are next door."

After hearing this, Sayuri's grandmother nodded gently. Chizuru quickly took out the key, opened the door of the apartment, and welcomed grandmother in.

In fact, this was also the first time that Qianzuru's grandmother came here. Qianzuru turned on the light and the heater. After a while, the originally cold room gradually became warm and bright.

Sayuri's grandmother looks after her granddaughter's home, and keeps it very clean and tidy, which is also the result of family education.

However, this place is too small, only about 30 square meters in total. After all, if it is an expensive apartment, Qianzuru can't afford it.

In fact, the Ichinose family originally had a house, a fairly nice one-family house, where Chizuru's parents, she, and Chizuru lived.

However, after Chizuru's parents died, there were many places where money was needed. The family lost its main labor force and could no longer pay the mortgage, so they had to sell the house. Part of the money was spent on Chizuru's parents' funeral, and she originally wanted to save the rest, but her health was not good enough.

She is not afraid of death and she has lived enough, but if she leaves early, what will Chizuru do?

"Grandma, have some tea. You can sleep in my bed tonight, and I'll get you another quilt so you can sleep on the floor." Qianhe made two cups of tea.

What a filial and good child she is. She knows that Qianhe has had a very hard time these years, but there is not much she can do to help.

Qianhe seemed to remember something, her cheeks flushed a little, and then she said: "Grandma, please sit down first. I will go change my clothes first."

Chizuru took out clean underwear and home clothes from the drawer and went to the bathroom. She looked at the clean underwear in her hand with some distress.

What happened at the Kinoshita household just now had such a huge impact on her that her body felt a little strange and her mind was filled with the image of Hachiman lying between her legs.

After finally changing clothes and returning to the room, Grandma Sayuri sat down and asked Chizuru to sit next to her. The two of them hadn't said anything heart-to-heart to each other for a long time.

Sayuri's grandmother took a sip of her tea and then asked, "Have you done it with Kazuya-kun?"

Qianzuru, who was also drinking tea, couldn't help but choke on it and her eyes turned red from coughing.

"Grandma, what's wrong with you today? Why do you always say such weird things!" Qianhe said excitedly.

But Sayuri's grandmother responded calmly, "A young couple, even just living next door to each other, just a wall away from living together. But nothing happened. Is it me or you who are weird?"

Chizuru fell silent for a moment. Although she was conservative, she was not so rigid as to say that she had to get married before doing that kind of thing. In fact, Kazuya-kun had hinted at her before and even tried to get close to her after getting drunk.

But she even had her first kiss.

Sayuri's grandmother said, "Does Kazuya-kun not mean to do this, or do you not want to?"

She always felt that there was still a long time to come, and Kazuya-kun's personality was still a little erratic. Although he was very kind to her, he was like a child. That was why she was reluctant and wanted to wait until Kazuya-kun's personality became more stable.

Although she is not conservative enough to wait until marriage, she does not think it is shameful to be a virgin in high school, probably because she has few friends.

"Grandma, why do you keep asking these questions tonight?" Qianhe felt a little uncomfortable and didn't want to answer.

But Sayuri's grandmother didn't stop and continued to ask: "Chizuru, what do you think of Kazuya-kun now?"

Chizuru pursed her lips. Originally, she didn't have any special ideas. It was only with the matchmaking of the two old men that she felt that she and Kazuya-kun had a good fate and that Kazuya-kun had a good personality, so she agreed to the request to date.

Due to her upbringing, Chizuru's personality is actually somewhat similar to Saki's. She is pragmatic, which her peers do not have. It's not that she doesn't yearn for the unforgettable love in novels and TV dramas, but reality tells her that such love will not happen to her, which also affects her choice of mate.

As long as they like each other, the relationship can be cultivated slowly. Since the elders of both sides agree, it is not bad to try to get along with each other. This is what Qianzuru thinks.

However, the partner chosen under such an idea is more like a companion who lives together, and often lacks heart-warming moments.

This cannot be said to be wrong, provided that you don’t meet someone more amazing.

This is the dilemma that Qianhe is facing now.

Now she had some understanding of what it felt like to truly like someone.

This is completely different from the so-called evaluation of pleasing the eye or having a good personality.

It is a feeling that makes you happy from the bottom of your heart as long as you see the other person.

Chizuru felt a little bitter in her heart, and then she whispered to her grandmother: "I might break up with Kazuya-kun."

When Chizuru was in the guest room, she could no longer deceive herself after being treated like that by Mr. Hikigaya.

She had indeed cheated on him, and it was not even possible to say for sure that it was only mentally cheating. When she was wearing her gymnastics uniform and doing that with Mr. Hikigaya, she was suppressing a joyful emotion in her heart.

If she continued to go against her own feelings and date Kazuya-kun, he would be the only one who would be hurt in the end, and Chizuru couldn't bear it.

When she was driving back just now, she had been thinking about it all the way and had a rough answer. She would break up with Kazuya-kun.

However, she had just met with the parents of the Kinoshita family, and her grandmother didn't seem to object. So it was a bit difficult to say this, and she didn't know how her grandmother would react.

Despite this, she still said it, and was even prepared to be scolded by her grandmother.

After a moment's silence, Sayuri looked at her granddaughter with a kind gaze and said, "Chizuru, the doctor said that I won't survive past next year at most."

Qianhe couldn't help but look up, her eyes suddenly turned red, and her teeth were trembling slightly.

Because she had experienced the death of her loved ones before her eyes, Chizuru attaches great importance to family ties. Now, Sayuri is her only blood relative.

"How could that be? But that's not what the doctor told me last time. There should be a way. Let's find a better hospital. I'll ask Mr. Hikigaya for help. He knows a lot of people."

Qian He immediately became excited, even a little bit out of control, but now she couldn't care less, her body was shaking, her face was full of panic, she didn't know how she was going to live in this world alone if even her grandmother died.

Grandma Sayuri reached out her hand, held her granddaughter in her arms, and said softly: "Chizuru, don't be afraid, I'm still here."

The warmth from the old man calmed Qianhe down a little. Her eyes were filled with tears, and she now understood what the old man had meant.

"You offered to let me meet Kazuya-kun's parents before, just to arrange my life in advance?"

Only in this way can the strange behavior of the elderly be explained. After all, they are only high school students. It is really too early.
