After a while, Hong Shangying lowered his head:

"Are we... together?"

She subconsciously touched her ring, as if she wanted to confirm something.

Huibara just raised her head, reached out and gently grabbed Hong Shangying's hand, pulling it in front of her.

Looking at the ring on Hong Shangying's hand that was not quite the right size, Huiyuan pinched Hong Shang's fingers.

"Do you want to hear my answer now?"

Her tone was the same as before, flat, emotionless and hard to read.

Hong Shangying's hands suddenly became a little stiff.

She was afraid of hearing an answer she didn't want to hear.

After a few breaths, Huiyuan did not keep Hong Shangying in suspense and continued:

"This ring must be painful to wear."

She mentioned the ring.

This is a topic that Hong Shangying doesn't want to hear.

“I’m used to it…”

She wanted to avoid the subject and spoke in a low voice.

Hong Shangying has indeed gotten used to it.

This ring was very big when she bought it, and it's just a little tight now. She can probably take it off with a little effort, and it doesn't hurt her too much.

Even if it really hurts her, she is unwilling to take it off.

But the woman who touched her hand had a simple answer.

"pick up."

Huiyuan said calmly.

Hong Shangying's expression froze for a moment, and she subconsciously grabbed Huibara's wrist, and words of begging the other party quickly emerged in her mind.

Just when she was at a loss, she heard Huibara's next words.

"I'll get you a ring of a more appropriate size. Don't wear this one anymore."

Huibara tried to take off the ring, but gave up before she got halfway because she was afraid of hurting Hong Shangying.

Hong Shangying's originally stiff hands became light.

Huibara also saved a lot of money, but he didn't use it for anything other than dating JK and raising his daughter.

A bit expensive to give as a gift to a friend.

However, if it is a gift to her girlfriend, she won't feel bad about it.

As for the ring I was given when I was a child, it doesn’t matter if I keep it as a collection or a commemoration, but I’d rather not wear it on my finger.

"…………"

After a long silence, Hong Shangying's eyes were a little red, but different from before.

Afterwards, Hong Shangying held her in the car for a long time.

Huihara still hates the feeling of heat.

…………

Hong Shangying is easier to please than expected.

After Huibara said she would give her a new ring, she forgot about other problems and was immersed in happiness.

And Huihara still did not answer Hongshang's question.

What is her attitude?

In fact, Huiyuan herself doesn't know either.

Frankly speaking, she couldn't give Hong Shangying an answer now.

At least before knowing Hong Shangying's feelings, Huihara was still in love with her female colleague Miss Suzuki.

As for being liked by others, she had never thought about it before.

Huibara's inner confusion is much greater than one might imagine.

I remember that when she was a child, Huibara’s biggest wish was not to become a magical girl, but to be liked by others.

She is a gloomy and inconspicuous girl.

He looks very ordinary, comes from an ordinary family, and his personality is unlikely to attract other people's attention.

When others were playing games like magical girls or playing house, Huibara could only sit alone in the corner and watch them from afar. At that time, she felt vaguely lonely and thought, it would be nice if someone could like her.

At first she thought that if she became a magical girl, this wish would be fulfilled.

But she gradually figured it out as she grew up.

Huihara's expectation is not to become beautiful, rich and popular.

But she hopes that even though she is so ordinary and inconspicuous, there will be people who like her even though she is useless.

Except for parents.

It's not because she is someone's child or sister, or because we have any special connection. I fell in love with her just because she is here.

Such an idea is of course naive.

But when she told her parents about this wish when she was a child, her mother would touch her head and tell her that this wish would come true one day.

So Huiyuan's idea has not changed.

The sky seems a little gloomy today, and the tone is darker than usual. The weather forecast says that it will rain this afternoon, after which the temperature in the city will slowly drop.

Huibara was walking alone in an alley with few people.

It seemed like he suddenly thought of something.

"Dad, Mom, it turns out someone likes me......"

Huihara lowered her head, expressionless.

Before I knew it, ten years have passed.

No longer a girl, but an adult with her own family.

She slowly raised her head and whispered:

"I will be happy."

Chapter 67: Miss Kazama stopped thinking

I don't know when it started raining in this city again.

I heard that before magical girls began to appear frequently in this city, many people left because of the weather because it made them feel depressed. But Haibara didn't hate it. She had always been in a good mood when she saw rain since she was a child, and she especially liked the feeling of the sky being covered by cumulonimbus clouds.

After separating from Hong Shangying, Huihara did not return to her small rented house, but went to another home she had not been to for a long time.

That's where her daughter lives now.

Many years ago, she lived in this house with her daughter. Later, due to various reasons, Huibara left the house to Kirio and rented a house herself.

The last time I returned to this home seemed to be several months ago.

After knocking on the door, as expected, Kirio was not at home.

Naturally, she did not inform Kazama Toori before returning home. Perhaps she wanted to play a prank on him. She was curious about how Kazama Toori would react when he saw her when he returned home.

Taking out the spare key, Huibara opened the door and walked into the house she had not entered for a long time.

After not being back for so long, a lot of changes have taken place in this home.

Her adopted daughter, Kazama Toori, is actually a person whose preferences often change with her mood. For example, her favorite clothes or room decoration may change every few weeks, and then she will want to redecorate the room.

Haibara had no motivation to decorate the room, so the family was always at the mercy of Kirio.

Of course, there are some decorations that have never been touched.

For example, there are a lot of small trophies and commemorative certificates that Kirori won in junior high school, things like this that Haibara never won when she was a child, but this big girl has a lot of them in her room.

Whether it is study or sports.

After all, her daughter has been good at everything since she was young.

There are also photos of Kirori and her biological parents.

Senior Kato in the photo is still the same as in his memory, young and handsome, dignified and elegant, as if he will never fade, but there is a touch of maternal nature in him that Sou Huiyuan has never seen before.

She remembered when she first adopted Kirori, she often thought that the daughter of her senior seemed to be better than her senior.

Now she sometimes forgets this and thinks that Kirori is her daughter.

"Changed location again?"

It is worth mentioning that the photos of herself and Kirio are usually not placed in a fixed place.

That dog-like girl might take their photo to some other place to admire it one day.

Huiyuan doesn't know where there is anything good to see.

She sat down on the sofa casually and soon noticed a wrinkled dog doll placed next to the sofa. There were traces of stitches on it, which she had sewn with great effort in the past.

Even after living alone, Huiyuan had never learned this kind of needlework, so she felt bad when sewing.

Her adopted daughter had been carrying the doll before she started living with her.

This puppy is very important to Kirori.

It looks a little dusty and dirty, and even washing won’t change that, but I still hug this puppy every time I go to sleep.

Huihara gently picked up the dog doll with both hands, placed it in front of her, and looked into its dark eyes, as if she was looking at a big black-haired dog with its tail wagging non-stop.

She blinked expressionlessly, then leaned forward and kissed the puppy's nose.

The sky outside had unknowingly been dyed a cold gray by the rain.

Haibara was not worried that Toori Kazama would forget to bring an umbrella. After all, her daughter was much more careful and smarter than her. She would check the weather forecast on time every morning and would call to remind her to bring an umbrella even if they did not live together.

Before Kazama Toori came back, Haibara had nothing to do.

A lot of things happened yesterday.

If you think about it carefully, does this count as finding a little mother for her filial daughter?

Of course, Haibara never told Kazema Toori about her love life. Probably no girl would care about what type of person a mother in her late thirties likes, or which woman she was fooling around with that day.

"--bite………"

The bell rang.

At first Huihara thought it was the doorbell, but later found that it was not coming from the door, but from inside the house.

After looking for the direction, she found that the ringing sound came from the room where Kazama Toori lived.

Huibara remembered that this was the sound of the alarm clock in Toori Kazama's room.

If the alarm is not turned off, it will keep ringing.

The sound is quite loud and a bit annoying.

But in the past, Huibara respected her daughter's privacy and would not enter her room casually.

But...her daughter is still outside, and it might take some time for her to go home.

Huihara fell into thought.

Generally speaking, the room of an 18-year-old girl who is physically and mentally healthy would not have anything shameful like a boy's, right?

At least Huibara didn't have that kind of thing when she was a child.

Even if she really saw something accidentally, it was actually no big deal. She just had to pretend she didn't see it. It was normal to be curious about that kind of thing.
