In the anime, cultivating a girlfriend starts from childhood

"Yuzuru, this outfit is so cute!"

"Hehe, this one is also very good."

At this time, Yuzuru Nishimiya turned into a dress-up doll. Under the control of his sister, he tried on one set of cute clothes after another that were exclusively for girls.

At this time, she couldn't even raise any objections, because deep down in her heart, she also liked these beautiful clothes.

"Okay, Yuzuru, let's try the next one!"

Nishimiya Shoko excitedly pushed Nishimiya Yuzuru into the locker room.

Hiratsuka Ryosuke was strolling in the store when he seemed to step on something and suddenly heard an unfamiliar cry from behind him.

"what!"

When Ryosuke looked back, he accidentally stepped on a girl's foot, and the white beret in the girl's hand fell to the ground.

Chapter 25 The Taste of Strawberries

"I'm so sorry, I wasn't paying attention to the road. Are you okay?" Ryosuke Hiratsuka asked sincerely.

He was actually very puzzled as to when this girl came up behind him and he didn't even notice it.

"Yeah, it's okay."

The girl spoke in a calm tone, as if the person who was stepped on was not her.

He calmly picked up the beret on the ground, put it back in its place and slowly walked away.

Before leaving, he took a few more glances at the hat, as if hesitant about whether to buy it or not.

Seeing that she seemed to care a lot about the hat, Hiratsuka Ryosuke made a decision.

Chasing after the girl directly to apologize seems like he has bad intentions towards her, so he has to find another way.

Girls are always very sensitive. Often they may say "it's okay" but they may be thinking something else in their heart.

After all, if you accidentally step on someone, even if it's just an unrelated passerby, it is a responsibility to express your apology sincerely.

He took off his white beret, brought it to the cashier at the counter, and pointed at the girl who was wandering around.

"Hello, please help me pay the bill, and can you help me give this hat to that girl later?"

The cashier saw a handsome boy coming to the counter, made a small request, nodded repeatedly, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, little brother, I will definitely help you send it to the girl."

She looked in the direction of Ryosuke's finger and frowned slightly.

Do handsome guys like this type of girl nowadays?

The girl looked very ordinary, just like any other passerby, with nothing special about her.

"Ryosuke~ We've chosen, let's just go with these."

Nishimiya Naoko walked to the counter with a few pieces of clothes and smiled at Hiratsuka Ryosuke.

The cashier girl took a look at the cute girl in front of her, her slightly frowned brows slowly relaxed, and she understood what he meant.

That's right. It's reasonable that a handsome boy like this kind of cute girl.

After the three of them paid the bill, they left the clothing store together.

"Hello, I want this dress."

The girl walked to the counter, picked up a small red vest, and spoke without any emotion.

The cashier lady was shocked. She hadn't noticed when this girl came over.

Did I seem to have forgotten something?

Never mind, let’s pay the bill first.

"Mei! Where have you been? Mom has been looking for you for a long time."

A middle-aged woman ran to the counter and said to the girl with a worried look on her face.

The girl named Hui, with her calm face, pursed her lips for a rare moment.

It was clearly my mother who asked me to wait for her here. It was my mother who got lost.

But she quickly adjusted her mood. After all, this kind of thing had happened more than once or twice.

Just as she walked to the door with the clothes, the lady at the counter suddenly remembered what the handsome boy had asked her to do.

"Um, wait a moment!"

Hui turned around holding the bag, with a look of confusion on her face.

Are you calling me? I guess you called me by mistake.

When she was about to keep walking, the cashier girl ran out of the counter, stopped her, and handed over the things in her hand.

"Little sister, you forgot this. A handsome boy just said he would give it to you."

Hui looked at the white beret in front of her with the label still on it, and rested her finger on her chin, as if thinking.

Then it dawned on me that this seemed to be the hat I had just seen.

Is the handsome boy referring to the "Guardian Knight"?

He is a very famous person in the school.

Well, besides him, it seems that the flaxen-haired girl just now was also seen at the school gate before.

"Thank you."

Hui took the beret and looked around outside the store, but found no trace of the boy.

She also knew very well that this hat might be his gift to apologize for stepping on her just now.

Hui shook her head and didn't think too much about it. It would be forgotten soon anyway.

Her academic performance was not particularly good, she was not a class committee member, and she did not have many friends.

She occasionally watches TV series and goes shopping. She is an ordinary girl who can be seen everywhere.

It is estimated that such a famous person will never have any intersection with an ordinary girl like her in the future.

Hui put on the white beret with both hands and turned to look at the reflection in the window.

There was a faint curve at the corner of his mouth.

This hat really fits me.

"Mom, let's go."

She spoke calmly throughout, holding her mother's hand, and left the store.

……

August 30th.

This is the second to last day of the holiday and also Nibutani Morika's birthday.

As there are preparations before high school starts, Sister Jing has already gone to school.

This year, Ryosuke is home alone and plans to make the cake himself during the day.

ding dong~

The doorbell rings.

Hiratsuka Ryosuke walked to the door and opened it. The first thing that caught his eye was a large bag of strawberries.

The bag was slowly put down, and a small head with short flaxen hair popped out from behind the bag.

"Ryosuke, I came here early. You should be able to use these things."

Nishimiya Glass said timidly.

In Neon, it is considered rude to visit someone's home without the owner's permission.

The appointment time today was clearly in the evening, but after lunch she couldn't wait any longer.

I really want to see him soon. This is the only thought in Glass's little head.

"Come in." Ryosuke didn't care about Nozomi's early arrival and brought her into the house with a smile.

Nishimiya Naoko followed Ryosuke into the kitchen.

"The cake is baked. Naoko, please help wash the strawberries." After arranging Nishimiya Naoko's arrangements, Ryosuke Hiratsuka continued his previous work.

Nishimiya Naoko filled a basin with water, and bright red strawberries rolled into the basin one by one.

She secretly glanced at Ryosuke standing beside her, and saw that his eyes were focused and he cut the cake as if assisted by God. He quickly cut the baked cake into circles with the knife.

Nishimiya Naoko smelled the fragrance of the cake and secretly took a very small step towards Ryosuke, with a faint smile appearing at the corner of her mouth.

This way I'm closer to him, right? Hehe!

She lowered her head and smiled, her white fingers moving back and forth in the water.

Wash the strawberries and put them in a white porcelain bowl. The red strawberries will look even more beautiful and juicy after being soaked in water.

Just like Nishimiya Naoko's face at this moment.

"Ryosuke, this strawberry is for you!"

Nishimiya Naoko took out a strawberry and put it to Ryosuke's mouth as if she was offering a treasure.

Seeing him eat it, the smile on Glass's face deepened.

Ryosuke Hiratsuka thought that Naoko was attracted by the smell of the cake, so he picked up a small piece of cake with his left hand and handed it to Naoko's mouth.

Nishimiya Naoko leaned forward slightly, opened her lips slightly, and bit the cake.

But her tongue accidentally licked Ryosuke's fingers.

At this moment, she felt like she was electrocuted. Her body stiffened at first, and then she turned around suddenly with the cake in her mouth.

For a moment, her heart was pounding and she covered the lower half of her face with both hands.

His cheeks puffed up like a greedy hamster.

This was the best cake she had ever eaten.

"Glass?"

Ryosuke still doesn't know why Nozomi has such a big reaction.

Could it be that this child has never eaten freshly baked handmade cake before?

It seems I can make some other desserts for her when I have time in the future.

"delicious!"

Nishimiya Naoko answered incoherently while chewing something.

She turned her back to Ryosuke and her face was red.

At this moment, her eyes were like autumn water, clear and transparent.

The rosy face looks more beautiful than the fresh strawberries in the white porcelain bowl.

Chapter 26: Morixia's Birthday Wish

Seven o'clock in the evening, at the Nibutani family.

"Happy birthday, Morixia!"

Ryosuke Hiratsuka brought the finished strawberry cake and placed it on the small round table in the living room.

"Wow, cake, cake!"

When Nibutani Morika saw the cake, her eyes lit up.

There weren't many fancy decorations in the living room, nor were there many people.

Only Ryosuke, Shoko, Yuzuru, Mrs. Nibutani, and Morika herself were sitting around a round table.

"Isn't Yamada Fairy on good terms with you? She didn't come either?" Hiratsuka Ryosuke asked indifferently.

After all, in the past few months, Yamada Fairy and Mori Xia often got together secretly and said some incomprehensible words, like they were "accomplices" in doing bad things together.

Given their relationship, it is impossible for them not to attend the birthday party.
