Chapter 242 Sending Yukino Home

One afternoon, just as Xia Shi had expected, he spent four hours of hell.

It was almost time for dinner, so Xia Shi ran to the kitchen under the pretext of cooking.

In the living room, Yukino was flipping through Natsumi's photos, all of which were records of his childhood, from kindergarten to junior high school.

"It seems that Natsumi has been very cold since he was young." Yukino looked at a few private photos of him and found that the corners of his mouth were always pulled into a very cold arc, without any smile at all.

In some group photos, the Xia Shi team members actually smiled happily.

Like he said before, he would do things he didn't want to do just to fit in.

Seeing Xue Nai flipping through the photos, Ms. Xia explained, "He was in his first rebellious period at that time. He got along well with his classmates at school, but when he saw me in private, he gave me a cold shoulder. I didn't indulge him, so I hired a martial arts coach for him and trained him hard so that he didn't have the energy to act tough with me. It was a pity. Later I found that he was not very willing to learn, so I gave up after half a year, but his body did improve quite well."

"It shouldn't be a problem to beat up a small thug, but it's more difficult to deal with a murderer or an armed gangster." Xia Ningshuang pointed at one of the photos, "Look, when he was in the first grade of junior high school, he bravely took action to catch the criminal. I was so angry at the time that I locked him up for a week afterwards."

Yukino didn't comment, she knew why Natsumi's mother beat him.

Every time Xia Shi's member showed off his strength, his aunt would punish him.

When he bullies girls, his aunt will also punish him.

Thinking back to the stories she had just heard, Xueno felt that the other person was quite similar to herself in some ways.

Whether it is things that you are forced to learn, or some rules that you are unwilling to follow.

After looking at the photos, Yukino wanted to get up and help.

Just as she was about to stand up, she heard Ms. Xia's voice: "Let him do it alone. If a boy can't cook, it will be a serious deduction. It's a pity that he didn't bring the Yongling Knife and the Jade Dragon Pot, otherwise his cooking skills could be even better."

“……” Yukino sat down slowly.

She was thinking about what the two kitchen utensils the other person was talking about were.

……

Xia Shi listened to their conversation and fell into deep thought.

What are those two?

The legendary kitchenware.

A magical item in Chinese cuisine.

This world has relevant records, and the direction of the story is very different from the animation in the previous life. The legendary kitchen utensils are not that mysterious either, they are just a little better than ordinary kitchen utensils.

When he awakened his past life memories and discovered these kitchen utensils, he began to wonder whether there were any strange abilities or extraordinary people in his world. After all, he had traveled through time and space, and it would be too boring to live an ordinary life.

Unfortunately, no matter how we investigated, we found nothing.

There is no ninjutsu in the island country, there are no dragons in the dragon country, and some anime works are even no different from those in the previous life.

Gradually, Xia Shi gave up.

Until... I got entangled by the system this semester.

Time passed slowly, Xia Shi separated the last dish into plates and walked out with the dish.

The dishes were Chinese food, and he was afraid that Yukino wouldn't be able to get used to it, so he separated each dish. After all, Japanese people are not used to eating together.

"The meal is ready." Chef Xia shouted.

In the living room, two people who were chatting happily walked over.

Ms. Xia sat across from Xia Shi, and Yukino sat next to her.

During the meal, the three of them didn't talk much and had a very warm time.

After dinner, Xia Shi started to clean the dishes.

The two of them started chatting again while holding his photo.

When it was almost eight o'clock, Yukino stood up holding the little white cat. She felt that it was about time to go.

"Auntie, it's getting late. I'll take my leave first." After putting Panda down, Yukino bowed slightly.

"Well, it's not good for a girl to stay in a boy's house for too long." Xia Ningshuang picked up the cat and stood up to send her off.

At the side, Xia Shi, who was in a daze, also stood up.

When the three of them reached the entrance, Ms. Xia suddenly said, "A girl is going home so late, you have to see her off. Don't just stand there, put on your shoes quickly."

Xia Shi: “?”

From the tone of your voice, if someone didn't know me, they would think I was your servant.

I am in tears. When will my son be able to stand up again?

Seeing that he didn't move, Ms. Xia glared at him.

Xia Shi silently changed his shoes under the suppression of this blood.

"Y-san, I'll take you back."

Yukino didn't refuse, or rather, she didn't know how to refuse.

It would be very rude to deny someone's face at this time.

"Ah."

When the two were about to leave, Xia Shi's mother suddenly said, "Son, don't forget to bring your keys."

Upon hearing this, Xia Shi took out the key ring from his pocket and shook it.

……

The night in June was not cold, but it was a bit windy.

Walking downstairs, Xia Shi asked the other party how he felt today, "My mother seems to like you very much, so I talked a lot today, I hope you don't mind."

Yukino shook her head slightly, "Auntie is very cute and she loves you too."

"Yeah, I know." Xia Shi chatted, "In fact, when she gave birth to me, she wanted a girl and had already picked a name for me. She said she wanted to call me Xia Guo. Unfortunately, she didn't succeed in the end."

The two walked to the door of the apartment.

Yukino led the way half a step ahead, and Natsumi followed behind. Bright lights shone in the residential area, with a light every ten or so meters, lengthening the shadows of the two.

"She didn't like me to be stubborn and didn't want anything to happen to me, so she put a lot of pressure on me when I was little and asked me to learn more. She may have told you about some of her requirements for me, asking me to be nicer to girls and to help girls in trouble."

"But after she said all this, she always gave the same advice, 'If you're not happy, then don't do it.' But I kept doing things according to her requirements, and in the end I couldn't change it." Xia Shi chuckled a few times after he finished speaking.

Yukino listened to his words and thought of her parents.

Her father was kind but her mother was very strict, so Yukino had an unhappy childhood.

I was isolated because of my personality since I was young. I went to study abroad in middle school. After returning to high school, I was not isolated in the first year because my classmates were more mature. Although I was not isolated, I didn’t have many friends.

The next year, in the first half month of school, when the world became colorful and vibrant after living day after day like gears, when was it?

It was a Wednesday afternoon, and Yukino no longer remembered the book she was reading.

All that remained in her mind was his figure, his long black hair, and his passionate request to join the club.

The story between me and Xia Shi began from then on: we adopted a white cat together, took shelter from the rain at his house, ran together, watched the stars together, dated alone, and attended the cultural festival together...

"It turns out we've known each other for such a long time." Yukino thought belatedly.

Under the light, the two people's elongated shadows gradually moved closer together.

Chapter 243 Sisters talk

Inside the residential area, the lights were on and several families were watching TV; the sound of the programs came through the half-open French windows in the courtyard.

In addition, there are many families who are arguing. One of the issues is about the education of their children. One is a private high school with good educational resources but high tuition fees, and the other is a public high school with low tuition fees but cannot provide the best education for children.

Xia Shi put himself into this scene and found that even he found it difficult to make a choice.

It’s a really realistic problem.

He suddenly wanted to hear what Yukino was thinking.

"Sang Y, if your future child wants to go to school but your family can't afford it, what will you do?"

Yukino, who was walking in front of him, turned around and glanced at him, then continued to think and answered, "There is no such possibility. If I can't even provide a good education for my child, I will not give birth to her."

Very much in her style, solving the problem at its root.

"Bullmaster, you want a daughter?" Xia Shi noticed that she addressed him as 'she' instead of 'he'.

"Yeah." Yukino felt that her childhood was not happy enough, so she wanted to make up for the regret for her descendants.

"Boys are noisier, and I think daughters are better." Xia Shi answered after thinking.

"If I have a daughter, I want her to have a happy childhood, but I will not let her play computer games." This is a lesson learned the hard way. Huahua and Lili have both been raised in the wrong way.

The next one will definitely not fail! Xia Shi set a goal in his heart.

Yukino looked at him in surprise.

Xia Shi felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by her, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Xueno's little face was slightly red under the street light.

I actually had the same idea as Xia Shibu member.

……

After walking on the night road for more than twenty minutes and leaving the residential area, Xia Shi finally saw an apartment building not far away.

With his current income, he can actually live in a similar place, but in order to take care of Kirisu Madoka, Xia Shi gave up the idea of ​​moving. The current landlord's sister is also very cute, so there is no need to give money to other landlords.

After arriving at the door of the apartment, Xia Shi saw Yukinoshita Haruno who was working as a security guard at the door of the apartment.

At this moment, she was holding her hands, with a terrible expression on her face, looking at Xia Shi as if he were a scumbag.

"You're really good, Natsumi-san, for keeping the girl until so late and then sending her back." Yang No walked towards the two of them with a kind expression on her face.

"I thought so. Yukino actually said she wanted to go out this afternoon."

Xia Shi retorted: "If I really liked her, I wouldn't have sent her back today."

Before Yang Nian could say anything, Yukino couldn't help herself.

"Natsumi, stop explaining."

If he continues talking, everything white will turn black.

Xia Shi looked at her innocently, thinking - I'm clearly speaking for you, why aren't you letting me speak?

Yukino rolled her eyes at him and walked over to Yangno's side.

"Thank you, Natsumi." A hint of smile appeared on Yukino's cold face, and she added, "And, good night."

"Well, good night." Xia Shi replied.

Wait until he's gone.

The two sisters entered the elevator and Yang No pressed the number 8.

Yukino looked at the rising floor signs without saying a word.

Yang No was the first to break the silence, "Are you in love with him?"

"I don't hate it." Yukino replied.

"That's love." Yang Nai didn't wait for her to refute: "You don't like lying. When faced with questions you don't want to answer, you will choose to give vague answers."

After reaching the eighth floor, Yukino walked out.

Yang Nai followed her out of the elevator, "Girls can be reserved, but being too reserved will lead to missed opportunities. If you don't express your feelings to him, he won't dare to take that step."

"He is very cunning, like a leopard hiding in the dense jungle, waiting for prey to appear. You can't treat him as a harmless pet. If you don't want to be a hunter and take the initiative, when you are stuck in the mud, he will pounce on you and eat you up." Yang Nai watched her open the door, and seeing that she didn't speak, he had no intention of talking to her.

A few seconds passed...

"He has someone he likes." Yukino answered.

"That Kasumigaoka Utaha?"

"No, it's someone else." Yukino opened the door.

Yang Nai suddenly wondered if her sister read too many books. Why did she have so many thoughts? The more things she worried about, the harder it was for her to make a decision.

If you like it, just go for it. Why bother struggling with your own feelings?
