Faced with the blackened heroine, they actually stopped time

"This is my classmate Asagiri Soryu."

The introduction was very simple, and it seemed like he was evading some responsibility, but Oreki Gen's introduction made Asagiri Ran feel relieved.

It is not an identity that makes me feel embarrassed. At this moment, the identity of classmate seems to be the most appropriate one.

Because although Aunt Fujii looked very kind, she was not an important person to me. It was enough not to feel embarrassed at the moment, and as for what the other person thought, it didn't seem to be particularly important.

"Oh~ just classmates?"

Aunt Fujii said with a smile, causing Asagiri Ran to blush slightly.

Oreki Gen couldn't help but laugh.

"Of course."

"Isn't that beautiful?"

"What are you saying? Am I not pretty? My friends are pretty too, that's normal."

"Ha ha ha ha..."

Aunt Fujii smiled, then moved a little closer to Oreki Tsune and spoke in a low voice.

"Have I seen her somewhere?"

Oreki was stunned for a moment. Really? He really didn't seem to remember this.

"Maybe. She lives nearby and you may have seen her while you were on duty."

"Is that so? Well, I won't disturb your good time then."

"Take care, Aunt Fujii."

The middle-aged woman did not stay for long and left the two of them, leaving Asagiri Ran blushing for a long time.

Oreki Gen looked at the girl with amusement.

"Are you feeling so guilty now?"

"Why should I feel guilty? It's just... the air conditioner is turned up too high here, so it's a little hot."

The girl was trying to cover up her mistake by fanning herself on the side of her cheeks, as if this could lower the temperature and quickly remove the redness from her face.

People just like to do all kinds of self-deceiving things, which have no other effect except exposing their guilty conscience to the other party.

I bought the ingredients quickly.

Oreki Gen stood over the drinks and took a look.

"Would you like a drink?"

"Didn't you drink Coke just now?"

"I drank it all, what did you drink?"

"You have the nerve to say that!"

Asagiri Ran thought that the boy taking her Coke was a form of "interest", but she didn't expect that the bastard actually drank the whole bottle in just two or three gulps.

Taotie has become like this, right?

I've never seen anyone drink Coke like this, as if they were afraid of getting diabetes.

"Hey, because I suddenly realized that I haven't had Coke for a long time, and I'm a little greedy. How about buying a big bottle?"

The girl pointed to the other side.

"Drink coconut water."

"Anything is fine, as long as it's not alcohol."

Oreki Gen said with a smile.

Asagiri Ran looked at the other person strangely.

"Are you so afraid of drinking?"

Oreki Gen shook his head.

"It's not that I'm afraid of alcohol, but I feel like every time someone drinks with me, something bad happens to them."

"How many people have you been drinking with?"

The girl couldn't help but frown and asked awkwardly.

Oreki Xian looked at the other person's clear eyes mischievously, his long eyelashes trembling slightly.

Very smart. If it were in ancient times, such eyes would definitely be considered as a sign of divine will.

"What? Are you jealous now?"

"Sorry, I don't like sour food."

Oreki Gen blinked.

"How did you know I was going to make vinegar potatoes today?"

"What do you mean?"

"Even if you're not jealous, you have to eat it. Eat it forcefully."

"Fuck off!"

The two of them laughed and joked as they carried their things, paid the bill, and walked out of the supermarket, heading towards the street that they seemed to have walked on countless times.

Oreki Gen still clearly remembers the emotions he felt when he passed by alone a few days ago, and now he has this girl by his side.

Even in the twilight of time, even if the surrounding scenery becomes dim and gradually darkens.

They all seem to be beautiful existences.

People's moods are very changeable, so we should try our best to retain the fixed beauty around us.

Missing it once may be a lifetime.

Chapter 20: What would you do without me?

Coming to this familiar place to cook, Oreki Xian felt like the other person's kitchen was his own.

The operation is very easy and there is no sense of unfamiliarity at all.

Even where to put the seasonings and kitchen utensils, Asagiri Some might not know as well as Oreki Gen.

After all, this girl had no chance of trying to cook. I still remember that the first time Oreki Xian used her kitchen, he spent a long time cleaning it.

It’s not that the stove hasn’t been used for a long time, it’s that it has never been used at all.

Looking at the boy's familiar movements, although Asagiri Ran would mock the boy.

"Why don't you just become a chef after graduation? You seem to be having a lot of fun."

In fact, every time I see the other person lowering his head to wash and cut vegetables.

They are all embarrassed to speak their mind honestly.

She actually enjoyed this kind of atmosphere. With the addition of a boy, it seemed as if the whole room seemed less empty.

You may even sincerely feel that your life has become much more fulfilling.

How should I put it? It’s like an incomplete residence, as if it’s the first time in my memory that I can call it home.

It’s not that cold, and there’s a touch of humanity and the feel of life.

When Oreki Gen heard this, he would laugh.

"I've thought about it. Cooks make a lot of money these days. But forget it."

It was originally just a joking topic, but the other party answered it so seriously that Asagiri Ran became a little curious.

"why?"

"Because the fumes are very harmful to the skin. A handsome guy like me wants to stay handsome for a while longer. I don't want to age so quickly."

"Smelly."

Asagiri snorted softly.

But even she, who has never lost to anyone in terms of appearance, has to admit it.

In the entire Sakura City, she had never seen anyone more handsome or more capable than this boy.

Normally, when someone is handsome to a certain extent, it is difficult to say how good-looking he is. Compared with other handsome guys, you can only say that he has a different style and suits the taste of different people.

Have different temperaments to choose your own preferences.

There is no real defined standard.

But...no matter who is put together with this boy.

You will feel it sincerely.

Be it his appearance, temperament, or smile, he is invincible.

No one could match it.

While looking at him like this, I couldn't concentrate on reading. Even playing with my phone seemed distracted and restless.

The girl sighed and decided to get up.

He simply tidied the table, and without waiting for the other party to finish cooking before coming over, he sat down at the dining table and waited.

Oreki Gen cooks very quickly because there is no need to prepare too much food for two people.

When the specially prepared plate of shredded potatoes with vinegar was served on the table.

Even though a girl said she didn't like sour food, her taste buds and vision were instantly attracted by it.

The sour taste seems to whet one's appetite instantly.

All of a sudden, the secretion of saliva becomes uncontrollable. It has nothing to do with human preference. It is a purely physiological reaction.

It was also sprinkled with chopped green onions and a little chili pepper.

It is to make the flavor of this dish richer.

It's not just vinegar, of course it also needs spicy flavor as a supplement, at least this is very much to Oreki Gen's taste.

Can rice be eaten without some spiciness? Not at all.

"Okay, let's start eating."

Oreki Gen sat directly next to the girl, no longer opposite her.

This position and the change from the past made Asagiri Ran feel a little uncomfortable for a moment.

"Why are you sitting here?"

Oreki Gen looked at the other person as if it was a matter of course.

"Why can't you sit here? If you sit across from me and eat while looking at my handsome face, will that give you such a big advantage?"

Asagiri Ran angrily nudged the boy's arm with her elbow.

It's just a pity that her arms are too thin. Although her skin is fair and her body is well-proportioned and slender, it is obvious that her strength is not on the same level.

Not to mention pushing the boy away, even making Oreki Gen feel some pain was difficult.

It can be said that it has absolutely no lethality.

Instead, Oreki Gen became even more aggressive and he almost wanted to eat her together with the girl.

Asagiri Ran couldn't help but turn her head and look at him with a blushing face.

"How am I supposed to eat if you're like this?!"

Oreki Gen blinked.

"You want me to feed you?"

"Hey, you bastard! Don't disgust me when I have a good appetite."

"Hahaha, how about I hold you while you eat? That's fine too."

"I'll fuck you!!"

The girl seemed to be about to become angry to the point of reaching her limit, so Oreki Gen decided to stop while he was ahead.

What matters is the balance between relaxation and tension, and unlimited pulling.
