I am the emotional sustenance of your deceased

But she still shamelessly asked to see Qiansui immediately.

This is the thing she has been looking forward to most in the past eight years!

"Haha, Miss Yao is such a kind person. Are you so eager to take good care of her? You must take good care of her in the future."

"Yeah!" He nodded as fast as a rattle. The scene in front of him changed. He just closed his eyes and opened them again, and he arrived in front of a small wooden door.

Her heart beat faster and faster, so fast that even she herself found it unbelievable.

"age…"

As the key clicked into the wooden door, the originally subtle noise of children inside was instantly amplified.

Seeing the two adults walking into the house, the children stopped making noise. They all knew why the dean brought strangers here, and they all stood still.

Yao Lenai spotted the year-old in the crowd at a glance!

The child was like a fairy who had fallen into the mortal world, with clever grace in every move. Her eyes met Lenai's—

Even without thinking, one could understand how brightly the surprise and joy in the other person's red eyes were.

"Years old, this sister has adopted you. Of course, we still need to ask the child's opinion."

The dean also talked to Yao Lena about a lot of miscellaneous things, such as there was a probation period and that if mistakes were made during the probation period, custody rights would be deprived.

Kaname Rakuna had no intention of listening at all. She just looked at Chitose without even blinking.

On the way here, she was still wondering anxiously, what if she had just seen it wrong yesterday?

What if I just miss Chitose and Vision too much?

All these worries disappeared the moment Lenai saw the little girl.

Time and space seemed to have stopped. There was no one in front of her or around her, only the child remained.

"They're so similar... I can't tell them apart anymore."

"Big sis? Um, are you okay?"

The little darling with bright eyes and white teeth stood in front of Lenai, making Lenai subconsciously put her hand on the other's head:

"Years old? Is that you?"

No, you're not her, nor are you them... but you're so much like them.

"I'm 20, Kaname Rana...sister? Or mother?"

"what--"

Just as her mind was wandering, she was suddenly brought back to reality by these words. Yami Lenai was at a loss to find that she had already left the orphanage with her child.

【Me! What did I do! I…】

The hustle and bustle outside the house formed a sharp contrast with the tranquility of the child beside him, and the warm little hand of the little girl in his hand contrasted with the temperature of the tombstone he touched in Qiansui's hometown a few days ago.

The difference between life and death is the temperature difference between Huizuka Chitose's tombstone and Chitose's little hand.

"I got carried away and adopted a... little girl?"

"Sister? Mom?"

Faced with the girl's incredible call, Kaname knew that she should give her an answer.

She was definitely still in shock, unsure of what to call herself.

"Well, it doesn't matter what you call me."

[Why do I feel a little excited when I hear the name "Mom"? ]

"Wow! Mom! What a coincidence! I just went to see your performance yesterday! Today! Today! Today..."

The girl started talking immediately, and asked Lenai to kneel down on one knee solemnly, hold the girl's cheeks and push aside her hair.

"Shh... don't talk, let me take a closer look at you."

Let my eyes measure your face once more.

"Well?"

The boy, whose face was being pinched, blinked curiously.

"I never thought I'd adopt you, 23. We're so compatible."

Ch396. My intermittent love for Matcha Parfait

Lenai had to be patient and start lying.

"Yeah, what a coincidence!"

【Silly child.】

Lenai held the other person's little arm and looked around at the cute porcelain doll with subtle movements.

There are not so many coincidences in the world, kid, they are just carefully planned scams.

There was an undisguised look of guilt in Kaname's eyes, but her hands did not stop moving.

[I'm sorry, I approached you on purpose, but I couldn't control myself.]

It was not until just now that Lenai finally accepted the reality that she had adopted a daughter.

They raised a daughter on impulse, and even Lenai was not prepared for it at all.

"Big sis...Mom! Where are we going next?"

The little girl was not naughty at all. She moved obediently under Lenai's big hands, looking left and right as if she was saying goodbye to the welfare home.

"Change your name."

"Eh?"

"Well, change the name."

The action of holding the child was extremely cherishing, as if Lenai was protecting a precious piece of porcelain.

Is this the weight of my daughter?

It’s soft, fragrant, and still warm in my hands... I love it!

Just like Noshiro Chitose and Haizuka Chitose!

"From now on, you will be called——"

Countless images flashed and flew before Kaname Lena's eyes. It was a brief reel in which she saw her daily life with Chitose and Xiaosui.

"Just call me Chitose."

I want you to live a thousand years, I want you to live a thousand years... You must live a thousand years.

"Great! Mumu! I'm so excited! I was watching the older sisters' performance yesterday!"

The child started chattering again, but Yao Lenai, who liked quietness, didn't mind it at all.

She held the back of Qiansui's head and let him lean against her heart, then walked forward slowly.

[Huh… So cute, so cute…]

It was such a treat to listen to the little girl share her feelings, especially since she was so likable.

Lenai wanted to rub the other person into her body!

She didn't dare look directly at Qiansui because those eyes looked so much like theirs.

【Especially...Xiao Sui.】

Xiaosui...did you know?

Many years after you left this world, I have fulfilled your dream. I have successfully commercialized it, and I have also met a child who looks exactly like you.

"Her name is Chitose, her name is also Chitose... doesn't it sound nice... Chitose... I named her that."

"It sounds good. It sounds good."

Chitose Kaname didn't know who Rakuna Kaname was talking to. Her weird look was indeed a little scary, but she was not afraid at all.

【Xiao Lenai, I found you again. 】

Once again, got you!

Chitose Noshiro tilted her head harmlessly, and the smile on her lips looked so innocent to Rakuna.

【Let me accompany you through the last stage of this journey. 】

Now the identities have been swapped and everything is reversed!

Carrying so much and being forced to keep moving forward, constantly striving to become someone who surpasses Chitose Noshiro and Chitose Haizuka, how far have you come now?

Let me see it clearly with my own eyes!

……

Let me see you clearly again with my own eyes.

Ever since Lenai hugged Chitose, she never let go, even when she was sitting in a taxi, she kept the little girl in her arms.

Chitose looked around like a newborn kitten, scanning this new world with his newborn eyes.

"Mom!" Chitose stuck to Lenai and tried to raise her head to look into Lenai's eyes.

But I have to sigh that Lenai has developed very well as an adult, and is a potential stock that is qualified to challenge Chitose as an adult.

"Mom...huh..."

She was right! Kaname's body definitely trembled when she heard that name!

Chitose's eyes narrowed into slits, and she continued to open her mouth to call out Rakuna's new name.

[As expected, this idiot turned red-faced and limp like a limp little idiot. Hehe.]

"Mom! I'm hungry..."

Noshiro Chitose, who was given the name "Chitose Kaname", continued to act coquettishly with her new mother, and as the interaction deepened, Kaname Rakuna's number of trances began to increase.

Her expression was stiff and relaxed, but she just couldn't smile.

So cute!

"What do you want to eat? I'll take you to eat, old man."

In order to distinguish Chitose Noshiro, Chitose Haizuka and Chitose Kaname, Kaname Rakuna usually calls them Chitose Sister, Little Toki and Toki respectively.

They appeared when she was six, fourteen, and twenty-two years old respectively, meeting her at exactly opposite ages.

Noshiro Chitose was right. Kaname Rakuna was really sure that she would call the name Chitose for the rest of her life.

"Eat dessert! I want dessert and guitar!"

"You can't eat guitar... I'll take you there later..." Lenai suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and the corners of her mouth twitched a few times, "Forget it. Do you like matcha parfait?"

"What is that? Matcha parfait?"

"Mm, matcha parfait."

Matcha parfait is a strange food. Lenai's love for it has been intermittent throughout her life, but she will always drink it.

Chitose Noshiro is gone, and the matcha parfait is so disgusting.

Chitose Haizuka is here, and the matcha parfait is delicious again.

The ash tomb is gone, and the love is gone too.

Now the new year has arrived...

"New year...new..."

"Mom? Are you okay?"

"..."

Looking into the distance, Lenai chose to continue lying:

"I am fine."

Weird.
