Being stunned by a new jk girl, the boy's expression showed a breakdown.
The simple and lively little girl back then is gradually fading away, and the noisy and annoying high school girl full of girlish sentiments has awakened... Looking at the Japanese resident Lin Daiyu in front of him, Mochizuki began to inexplicably recall the middle school student. version of Xu Yuhuai, I miss that little kid who was straight-forward all day long and had an unusually rich expression——
Can not go back........
Of course, although Mochizuki himself was indeed very temperamental - but looking at his obviously unbearable brother, Xu Yuhuai also smiled softly, and then calmed down his expression:
"Okay, I won't nag you anymore... After all, Brother Wangyue is now famous and is an all-around artist. It's normal for him to have a rich life~ You still think of coming to me to go out to eat, which is fine with me. I’m quite happy (=°ω°)ノ”
"...Just be happy."
Seeing that the joke was over, Mochizuki sat up straight again:
"After all, I haven't sat down and chatted with you for a while. You have the right to relax for yourself today, right?"
"What Brother Mochizuki said... I'm an unemployed [-]th-tier actor now. I just relax all the time???"
Having said these words in a rather relaxed tone, Xu Yuhuai also gently held his chin at this moment:
"Brother Wangyue, it doesn't matter. You are a public figure now. You won't be secretly photographed when you go out to eat?"
"...I'm just very popular in the small circle, and I haven't become popular to that extent yet."
Speaking quite self-effacingly, Mochizuki did not forget to add:
"Besides, it doesn't matter. It's just a meal with friends. I'm not doing anything shameful."
"Huh...but many of your friends are girls?o?o?, aren't you afraid of being secretly photographed or something?"
"That's right."
"And you often go out to eat with others... maybe this isn't your first time coming to this store, right?"
"It's definitely not the first time."
Mochizuki responded softly, and after a moment of silence, he slowly said:
"But if I eat with a girl here, today is the first time."
"........."
Mochizuki continued with his words.
Xu Yuhuai's cheeks were slightly hot.
"Ahem...Is this like this?"
Unexpectedly, the curly-haired brother next to him suddenly said such words. Xu Yuhuai, who had grown up and had more ideas about this aspect, also panicked at this moment:
"It's really an honor... to be the first person invited here."
"Why are you saying this so suddenly... We are all partners who came to Tokyo from Toyama Prefecture, so there is no need to be so different."
Smiling softly, the young man with a relatively lackluster expression pushed the menu to Xu Yuhuai:
"Okay, I won't say much more - let's see what you want to eat. I said I'm treating you today, so just eat with your stomach open."
"okay!"
Hearing Mochizuki's words, the brown-haired girl's clear dark green eyes also flickered faintly at this moment:
"Brother Wangyue, do you have any taboos? Or is there anything you want to eat?"
"There is no taboo."
In response to this, Mochizuki, who was from Yuezhou next door in his previous life, said this to Xu Yuhuai, who is also from Guangdong:
"I'll eat whatever you like, just order whatever you want."
"...Then I'm welcome!"
After a moment of silence, the girl's face showed the same smile as when she was young. Then she called the waiter and ordered a few of her favorite dishes, which tended to be Chinese and Cantonese dishes.
"Garlic pork ribs, Maggi shrimps, boiled cabbage hearts, and some fried noodles... Yeah, that's it!"
"........"
As usual, the waiter who stepped forward to listen to the customer's needs carefully recorded the dishes, then politely withdrew and quickly handed the order to the front desk.
At this moment of ordering, Mochizuki held his chin and quietly watched the scene in front of him.
The moment when he was looking through the menu and ordering dishes, Xu Yuhuai seemed to be laughing the happiest moment.
Although I have watched Xu Yuhuai appear in TV series, and I have also seen the child's smile from a distance when she acted with Xu Yuhuai in "Ultraman Tega", but in this short one minute, the smile on her cheeks was genuine. Sincerely, there is a relaxed and real cuteness.
Did she really hold it in for too long... It feels like she has become much more restrained after high school.
Quietly thinking about Xu Yuhuai's affairs, Mochizuki couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts.
To be honest, his impression of Xu Yuhuai was still that of a ghostly child in junior high school, so when he saw the girl who had become much more mature and calm after entering high school, Mochizuki himself did feel a little concerned.
It feels like she wasn't like this when she first came to Tokyo... Why has she experienced these subtle changes in the past few months?
Is it because I have grown up and become more reserved...?
Well, if this is really the case, I suddenly feel a little sad.
Mochizuki, who had always regarded Xu Yuhuai as the three-dimensional Kinomoto Sakura, and until some time ago thought she was still a little girl, suddenly felt the power and cruelty of time at this moment.
Of course, Mochizuki is not a lolita fan, nor does she have any special desires for the next generation... So, after sighing with emotion, Mochizuki didn't go too far -
Let’s just treat it like rice bugs and eat something, family members.
With this thought in mind, the young man braced himself and waited for the delicious food to arrive.
Not long after, Chinese dishes that were not authentic but could arouse the homesickness of wanderers were served.
In an instant, the aroma overflowed... Looking at the plate of three-thread fried noodles, Xu Yuhuai's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he started to pull a large bowl and show off fiercely.
“Tangoku’s fried noodles are delicious(?????)?!”
After making a sound like a raff, Xu Yuhuai pulled the fried noodles, his expression showing quite a sense of satisfaction:
"Smells, smells so good - this is the smell!"
"...You eat slowly."
An An put the phone aside quietly, looking at Xu Yuhuai who was more mature than before, but also vaguely revealed some taste of the past, Mochizuki said slowly:
"Drink some water, don't choke..."
"Uh, gu, thank you, thank you!"
Huaizi was a good person, and she choked when she said she was choking. She was hiccupping while taking the water Mochizuki poured for her, savoring the warmth and soaking into her throat, and her expression became quite cheerful:
"Humph, I admit that Neon's food level can match one-third of China's - although this table is indeed full of Chinese cuisine? (ˊ?ˋ*)"
"LOL, really?"
Hearing Xu Yuhuai say this very familiar sentence, Mochizuki couldn't help but laugh softly:
"Why do you feel like you've said this before..."
"Hey, did I say that?"
Xu Yuhuai was stunned for a moment, as if thinking about something, his dark green eyes turned slightly:
"I think about when... I have no impression at all (O?O)! When did I praise the delicious fried noodles!"
"...Idiot, don't you remember that when we all passed the Tiga audition, I treated you to Japanese fried noodles in Toyama Prefecture?"
Mochizuki couldn't help but sigh at the memory of being pulled over by a certain Chinese girl:
"I just remember that you were so anxious with me before, and you seemed to have argued with me, saying that you were not willing to eat with me even if you starved to death - but in the end, you were taken advantage of by Cricket's Japanese fried noodles. It was so delicious on the spot that I was so upset. Blinded."
"...It was a long time ago?_??."
Perhaps because the atmosphere slowly returned, Xu Yuhuai's expression gradually became the same as before, and changed considerably:
"Brother Wangyue has such a good memory, he can actually remember things from so long ago."
"It's okay... I still have some memories of some interesting moments."
"I didn't expect that the moment when I smell really good is actually a clip that Brother Mochizuki finds interesting... What a dank adult (/"≡_≡)="
After complaining like this, as if he had thought of something, Xu Yuhuai did not say anything more, but just fell into deep thought:
"But it's really...if I think about it, it feels like we've known each other for a long time."
"It's been nearly three years since that promotional video for Uncle Yoshino's music store."
"...If you include the time when you were hospitalized as a child, you would have to add many more years."
There was some hesitation, and Xu Yuhuai's expression also showed a trace of nostalgia:
"I really didn't feel it before. Only when I look back do I realize that time has passed quietly..."
"You are also growing up slowly. This is normal."
Gently touching the head of a girl who was still eating fried noodles, Mochizuki couldn't help but sigh:
"Sometimes it's like this. Life will quietly pass by you without paying attention. When you come back to your senses, you will suddenly have grown up. There is an inexplicable feeling of loss in your heart - but it doesn't have to be like this. Don't care, after all, you are powerful enough now, aren't you?"
"...Am I powerful now?"
Hearing the young man next to him commenting on himself like this, Xu Yuhuai couldn't help being slightly stunned.
"Nonsense...you're really good already."
Snapping his fingers casually, Mochizuki said slowly:
"Isn't it enough that you have already starred in Ultraman when you were just a teenager, and participated in a popular web drama about daily life of youth, and you have your own goals to strive for? To be honest, I think you are already better than many people. "
"......"
Only to this sentence, Xu Yuhuai did not respond.
"All right."
It was as if he finally got to the point.
Mochizuki drank the tea and said:
"I won't say much else... Huaizi, how have you been lately? Are you happy?"
"...Hmm."
Only then did he realize why Mochizuki had just told him so much, and Xu Yuhuai's thin body couldn't help but subconsciously shrink back.
...However, realizing that Mochizuki was watching him at this moment, Xu Yuhuai's thumping heartbeat quietly eased.
.......After a moment of silence.
After considering her words and mood, the girl said this:
"To be honest... I feel like my high school life was a bit depressing."
"I can see it." Mochizuki nodded. "After all, your expressions have become less expressive, and you are not as childish and in need of a beating as before. I am not used to it."
"Haha... maybe so."
He didn't even quarrel with Mochizuki like he did in junior high school. Xu Yuhuai just smiled apologetically, and after a long time, he said:
"The depression in high school life is actually not because of bullying by my classmates or anything else... Everyone is a very gentle and powerful person, and they won't treat me differently just because I come from a small town. He treated me well and took the initiative to chat with me, which really made me feel happy——"
"But...looking at them who are so dazzling, I suddenly feel a little unworthy of being their classmates."
Getting to the point.
Xu Yuhuai's voice paused, and the faint smile in his dark green eyes disappeared in an instant:
"I was admitted to the famous private art high school Xiushan Gakuin in Tokyo... Originally I was honored to be able to come to this school, and I also imagined that I could truly realize my dream during my high school career. — but as time went on, it felt like everything was different than I imagined.”
"Although I was cast as the heroine of Ultraman Tiga, because my acting skills were really raw, and female characters in tokusatsu dramas are generally not taken seriously, so with my not-so-outstanding acting skills and mediocre attention, I was cast in I haven’t received a suitable job for a while, and I can’t continue to grow.”
"Of course...although I'm a little bit reluctant to not be able to get a job, but with my temperament, I certainly won't stop here."
"So, I started to want to expand my business scope and start to learn more skills. Whether it's voice acting or anything else, I wanted to try my best. I didn't want to just stop there."
"...That's why you showed up at the audition for "Zero - Starting Life in Another World", right?"
Listening quietly to Xu Yuhuai talking about the current situation in an unabashed tone, Mochizuki just nodded slightly, and then drank the tea on the table:
"When I first heard that you were going to audition, I was quite surprised... After all, I thought that you, the little guy, would be more interested in acting, and wouldn't want to be a voice actor with low salary and a limited upper limit. .”
"I just like to perform. It doesn't matter whether the upper limit is high or not, and whether the money is high or not... As long as I can still appear in front of the stage, I am satisfied."
"...Huaizi's obsession is really strong."
