The strongest high school student in Japan

This name carries too many memories between the couple.

"Silly boy, I love you too!" She suddenly hugged her husband tightly. "Chun-chan..."

The two of them stuck together like this, not separating for a long time.

By the way, I want to ask if you want other people's extra chapters...

323, Words of Advice and Nightmares

At Mogami Jun's request, the three girls stood silently under the tree, enjoying the courtyard in the night with the breeze.

And wearing yukatas, they seemed to blend into the night under the dim light and become part of the beautiful scenery.

This situation brought great spiritual satisfaction to Jun Mogami.

He only regretted that he could not freeze time at this moment, and could only helplessly watch it pass by, taking away those most beautiful memories.

"We've been outside long enough, let's go back." After an unknown amount of time, Meigong Xia Fei suddenly spoke.

Then, she turned around and walked into the mansion.

Since his master had said so, Mogami Jun certainly did not dare to disobey, so he went back with Sagihara Shion and Izumo Asana.

He found that everyone seemed to have reached an awkward point in time.

At this point in time, I no longer had the interest to continue standing outside and walking around, but it also seemed a little early to go back to bed.

Does Meigong Xiafei have any other plans? Or should we just disband and let everyone go back to rest? He couldn't help but wonder.

"Let me take you to the guest room first, you can rest there tonight--" While he was thinking, Meigong Xia Fei suddenly turned around and said.

There was certainly no reason to object to this, so they followed Umemiya Natsuki along the corridor to the doors of several rooms.

"You can sleep in this room tonight--" Umemiya Natsuki said to Mogami Jun, pointing at a door.

Then she opened the paper door and let Mogami Jun look inside.

The furnishings in this room are very traditional. There are sheets on the tatami, and daily necessities and some decorations are placed next to them. The arrangement is quite exquisite. There is a tea set on the table, and there are shelves with some porcelain and antiques on them.

This seems to be the room where the Umemiya family usually entertains guests.

0 ...

"Thank you, Umemiya-senpai." Mogami Jun politely accepted.

"Then you two..." Mei Gong Xia Fei turned around and looked at the other two girls, then suddenly laughed. "Do you mind sleeping in my room tonight?"

Sagihara Shion and Izumo Asana were both stunned for a moment. They did not expect that Umemiya Natsuki would entertain them so warmly. They were a little at a loss for a moment.

"It's okay if you don't want to. There are plenty of guest rooms here, and they can be arranged at any time." Mei Gong Xia Fei said with a smile, "I just thought that it's still early, so you can continue chatting. If you are tired, forget it. I won't blame you."

"I'm fine, just follow Senior's arrangements!" Asana replied immediately, "I'm also happy to chat with Senior Umemiya!"

"I don't mind." Sagihara Shion had also reacted and answered leisurely, "But, if the three of us sleep together, wouldn't it be a bit troublesome..."

"It's okay, it's just putting in an extra quilt, what's the problem?" Mei Gong Xia Fei waved her hand nonchalantly and replied with a smile. "Don't worry, the room is big enough, even if there are three people, it won't be crowded."

Since the other party has said this much, Sagihara Shion will not say anything more.

"Thank you very much..."

"Don't be so polite. When girls visit each other, isn't it natural for them to stay overnight together? I want to experience that, too." Umemiya Natsuhime laughed and replied, "It's rare to have girls of the same age visiting, and there are two of them at once. What's even rarer is that they are both of a level that I can take seriously, so of course I have to be more enthusiastic."

When she laughed, Izumo Asana and Sagihara Shion looked at each other.

Although she looks generous and cheerful, there is always an indescribable loneliness in Umemiya Xia Fei's words and deeds. It can be seen that for this young lady, "having friends visit and stay overnight" is an extremely rare experience.

If that's the case, then why not make her happy?

"Okay, then let's go!" Seeing the other two people cooperating so well, Meigong Xia Fei couldn't help but feel even happier. She waved her sleeves and took the other two people to her bedroom.

As a matter of course, Mogami Jun was not invited, and he knew what was going on and did not follow them. He could only helplessly watch them leave and disappear from his sight.

Finally, he returned to the guest room, poured himself a cup of tea, then lay down and started playing with his mobile phone.

I guess this is the only way to kill time and then fall asleep... I wonder how happy they will be chatting?

Jun Mogami couldn't help but imagine the scene of three girls wearing yukatas, lying together and chatting with each other with smiles on their faces, and suddenly he felt a strange sense of excitement.

No, I can’t think about it anymore!

He hurriedly stopped his daydreaming, then forced all his attention back to his phone, and slowly fell sleepy.

=========================================

Of course, Meigong Xia Fei and the others had no idea what the young man was thinking at the moment. After arriving at her bedroom, Meigong Xia Fei first called the servant over and told her to bring some bedding and spread the bed. Then she led the other two girls to visit her room.

She wasn't bragging, it was indeed a fairly spacious room, and even sleeping three people wouldn't feel cramped.

There are screens with exquisite paintings around the room, and many calligraphy scrolls and open paper fans are hung on the walls. Occasionally there are many calligraphy works by Mei Gong Xia Fei herself. It can be said that the room is full of bookish atmosphere, and there is no trace of any political or business elite.

"Senior Umemiya's handwriting is so good, no wonder even Minister Omi has to admit he is better!" Izumo Asana admired her handwriting carefully and couldn't help but exclaimed, "I don't usually have the chance to see it with my own eyes. Today I have the opportunity to see so much, it's really a feast for the eyes!"

Sagihara Shion didn't know calligraphy as well as Izumo Asana, so she didn't feel shocked or amazed when she saw the handwriting of Umemiya Natsuki, she just thought it was pretty. However, she was attracted by the content of these handwritings.

【木干しや竹に隠れてしづまりぬ】

【婩に匂ひやつけし回り花】

【淈りあだに流ちけり成のshell】

She read out loud as she looked at the words left in various places.

"How do you feel?" Meigong Xia Fei walked to her side and asked.

"It's well written. Do you like Matsuo Basho very much?" asked Sagihara Shion.

Of course she could tell that these haiku were all works by Matsuo Basho, a famous haiku writer in the Edo period.

"Yes, I like it very much, at least I liked it when I was a child." Umemiya Xia Fei nodded, "His haiku is fresh and has a hint of loneliness, which is in line with my aesthetic taste, so when I practice writing, I like to write his sentences-"

As she spoke, she pointed to the banner with the words [木干しや竹に隠れてしづまりぬ].

"My favorite is this one, it makes people feel very refreshing and quiet."

"It does feel good, so it's one of his famous quotes." Sagihara Shion nodded. "I also recited it when I was a child."

"木枯し" means cold wind, and the literal meaning of the whole sentence is "the bamboo forest hides the cold wind", which implies that "the chaos of the world is settled in the bamboo forest."

This haiku is a famous line by Matsuo Basho and is quite widely circulated. Although Sagihara Shion has not received specialized education, she has read it.

Umemiya Xia Fei became quiet again, quietly looking at the work she had written, and then suddenly let out a long sigh.

"It's strange. Although this is the first time I've met you, I always feel that you will achieve something in the future—"

"You're really flattering me... I don't even have that much confidence myself." Sagihara Shion replied with a wry smile, then turned serious, "Of course, I will work hard for this, not only to make a name for myself, but also to live up to all the people who have been kind to me."

"As long as we have this determination, how many things can't be accomplished?" Meigong Xia Fei nodded approvingly, then waved her sleeves, "Our family has been committed to making friends with talented people for many years. It is precisely because of this that we have been able to maintain our reputation for many years. For those who we admire, we have never been stingy in helping them."

Then she turned back to the wall, looked at her own handwriting, and suddenly reached out, took one, and handed it to Sagihara Shion.

"I'll give this to you as a gift. Consider it a welcome present for your visit to our home. I hope you don't mind."

Sagihara Shion lowered her head and took a look. There was a haiku written on it:

[Hirasan Shangxue's bridge]

This is also a famous line from Matsuo Basho. Mt. Hira and Mt. Mikami are separated by Lake Biwa, and when the egrets flying between the two mountains are close by, it is as if a snow-colored bridge has been built over Lake Biwa. This short sentence of haiku combines elegance and grandeur.

The word "lu" happens to correspond to Sagihara Shion's surname, so it is a double entendre, carrying the blessing of hoping that she will spread her wings and fly high.

Seeing that Umemiya Natsuki was so thoughtful, Sagihara Shion was naturally surprised and happy.

"Thank you! I am very satisfied... I just regret that I can't give the same gift in return..."

"It's okay. It's okay to return the gift if there is a chance in the future." Meigong Xia Fei replied with a smile.

Asana next to her was also peeking around, seeming to be somewhat envious of the gift that Sagihara Shion received.

"Don't be anxious, Asana, how can you miss your share?" Umemiya Xia Fei smiled and looked at her favored schoolmate with a doting look, "Here, this is for you!"

Asana was also very surprised. As she loves calligraphy, she treasures the gift given by her senior more than Sagihara Shion.

She carefully took the scroll and looked at it carefully. It read:

[Tonight's moon grinds out and people see Izumo Shou]

"This was written by Matsuo Basho when he was young." Sagihara Shion beside him explained in a low voice, "One night, it happened to be the fifteenth day of the eighth month, he saw the moon in the sky was round and bright, so he wrote this sentence. It means 'The moon tonight is so bright, it must have been polished by Hitomi Izumo-no-kami' - Hitomi Izumo-no-kami is a fictitious mirror polisher, implying that the moon is as bright as a mirror."

Izumo Asana quickly understood.

In addition to the meaning of the sentence itself, she could also feel the hidden meaning - Umemiya-senpai would protect Izumo Asana as she would the moon.

These words are elegant yet heavy, and they show the solemn style that she lacks.

"Senior is really thoughtful." With a mixture of gratitude and excitement, Asana carefully put away the calligraphy, and then solemnly thanked Umemiya Natsuki, "In the future, I will definitely study hard and strive to write as well as you..."

"Then you really have to work hard for a while..." Mei Gong Xia Fei replied with a little pride, "It's not that easy to reach my level."

While they were talking, the servants had made the bed.

So they all got off and continued chatting.

The girls seemed to have endless topics to talk about, but time was passing slowly and relentlessly, draining their energy.

Slowly, they stopped talking and fell asleep.

However, Princess Xia of Meigong did not sleep well.

Or rather, she couldn't sleep well every time she returned home.

It’s not because the environment at home is bad, nor because there is a problem with the bed, but because this place carries too many memories that she can’t bear to look back on.

When she closed her eyes, she seemed to be able to feel that there was some indescribable and irresistible terror coming towards her in the darkness.

In a trance, she felt as if someone was fiddling with her clothes and gently rubbing her body.

"No...no..." Her body was getting hotter and hotter, with large patches of sweat covering her body. She muttered to herself, as if trying to break free from the ruthless terror.

But her weak struggle was unable to stop the opponent's actions, instead it seemed to make him even more ferocious.

Her chest was squeezed hard. She opened her mouth but could hardly breathe. She felt so swollen and painful all over that she could hardly control herself.

“No! Stop!!”

Finally unable to bear it any longer, she let out an ear-piercing scream, then opened her eyes and breathed deeply.

However, it was only then that she realized that there was no one in front of her.

She lowered her head, looked at her clothes that had become messy due to her violent struggle, and the large areas of skin that were exposed, and then she couldn't help but smile bitterly.

This is the nth nightmare I have had.

"Ms. Umemiya, are you... okay?" A low voice came from the side.

Umemiya Natsuki looked over and found that Sagihara Shion was looking at her with a hint of worry and confusion.

Not my sister's beautiful yet terrifying face.

Those nightmares are over...

No, actually it’s not over yet. The humiliation and pain she once suffered have been forever engraved in her memory.

I will never forget it.

How can she get out of this pain? She didn't know.

But she knew that this pain must be returned to the giver in its original form, only in this way could she wipe out her anger and humiliation.

"Thank you, I'm fine, don't worry about me, I just had a nightmare." In the dim light, Umemiya Natsuhiko gave Sagihara Shion a half-bright smile and whispered to comfort her, "Sometimes I have nightmares at night. I'm sorry if I disturbed you..."

"Oh, that's good." Sagihara Shion felt relieved and closed her eyes again.

324, agreement reached

Although Umemiya Natsuki's bedroom was spacious and luxuriously furnished, it was an unfamiliar place after all, so Sagihara Shion did not sleep well.

The scream of Umemiya Natsuhime after a nightmare in the middle of the night woke up Sagihara Shion. After comforting her, she finally fell into a deep sleep again.

But after an unknown amount of time, she seemed to hear some faint noises again, and woke up again in a daze.

This time, the sky seemed to have slightly brightened.
