Kyoto Shenyin Love Story

Chapter 203 Back to You

After getting off the tram and walking all the way back to Kirino's old house, Yoshikawa stopped at the entrance of the yard.

"I'm not going in."

"Um……"

Akane Kirino looked at her, and was very concerned about her increasingly sluggish state, "Is it okay for Hongzi to go home by herself, let Soya take you?"

Yoshikawa glanced at Soya, then quickly looked away.

"No... I'm fine."

Akane Kirino thought for a while, then handed the bag containing the swimsuit to Soya, "Then I'll see you off."

"..."

After all, she couldn't refuse anymore and nodded.

"Then please."

Looking at the two girls walking away side by side, Soya turned around and walked in.

Take your bathing suit to the wash and hang it in the yard to dry.As soon as he turned around, Zhao Wuling appeared at some unknown time and handed over his swimsuit.

Hang up the swimsuit for her, and the two returned to the edge and sat.

It was cloudless, the sky was blue, and the sun was shining down on the yard.Before noon, the little breeze blowing from the yard has become scorching hot.

After sitting for a while, she turned to Kirin to look at Soya.

"what happened?"

"..."

He remained silent, and felt that his whole body was getting hotter and hotter, so he got up and went to the upstairs room, and took off the electric fan.

Plug in the power, press the switch, the blades fly at high speed, sending out a steady stream of cool wind.

He sat down in front of the electric fan, just enjoyed a few breaths, got up towards the fog bell, and sat between him and the electric fan, blocking out the wind.

"..."

Soya sighed faintly, stretched out his hands through her armpits, and hugged the petite girl closer to him.

"Yoshikawa is going to confess."

The short hair around the ear was constantly fluttering by the wind behind her, and Chao Wuling's expression was as usual, without any surprise.

"Ming still wants to reject her?"

He didn't speak, just nodded.

She too was silent.

After looking at him for a while, she moved forward again, bent down, and pressed her face against his chest.

Plop, plop--

"Regret has turned into pain, hurting you and her."

Soya lowered his head, buried it in her short hair, and took a deep breath.

"It's okay. The pain is only temporary, for me and for her...it's okay."

Chao Wuling closed his eyes and didn't speak for the time being.

"It's really hot under the sun..."

"Thank you, Sis."

After being sent home by Akane Kirino, Yoshikawa held her back, "Come in and have a glass of water before going back."

"Okay." Akane Kirino readily agreed.

After saying hello to Yoshikawa's mother, she came to the room on the second floor and sat down. Hongzi soon came up with two glasses of juice.

"It's ice-"

After drinking most of the glass of juice in one go, Akane Kirino shrank her neck.

There was a gap in the contrast, Yoshikawa picked it up and put it down again, the juice in the glass hardly changed.

"Hongzi really doesn't have much energy." Kirino Qian looked at her and said.

"……Feel sorry."

She lowered her gaze, watching the water droplets condense and slide down on the glass.

"I woke up too early today...Maybe I didn't sleep enough."

"Just like that?"

Yoshikawa raised his gaze, and Akane Kirino, who was sitting across from her, stared at her intently.

"I feel that Hongzi suddenly lost her energy after picking out her swimsuit... Did something happen in the middle?"

"..."

After a moment of silence, she forced a smile, "Sis always feels particularly sensitive when she doesn't expect it... she is usually very dull."

"Hey, are you complimenting me? Are you complimenting me? If Hongzi says no, I will be angry."

Before Kirino Akane had time to pretend to be angry, she panicked.

"Hongzi?"

She quickly got up and sat across from her, watching the two lines of tears suddenly flow from the bottom of Yoshikawa's eyes, while wiping them, she was at a loss.

"Hey, what's wrong... did I say something wrong?"

Yoshikawa shook his head, just sobbing, but the tears flowed more and more.

"Hongzi..."

Kirino Akane blankly guessed the reason, "I won't be really angry? I will always like Hongzi..."

She suddenly thought of something.

"Did Soya bully Hongko while I was trying on the swimsuit?"

"..."

Yoshikawa paused, looking at her with teary eyes.

It was as if someone suddenly pulled the film of memories, and the events that happened in the past few months emerged one by one before his eyes.

The first time I saw the "handsome country boy" Soya at the gate of the middle school after school, I thought he was dating Akane, so I started to pay attention to him;

Accidentally went to Danhai High School together, obviously just accompanying, did not take the entrance examination, but he got the admission notice earlier than her;
After he learned that he cared about Qian, he took him as an object to confide in without authorization, and planned to attract Qian's attention by pretending to like him;

And go to and from school together, deal with inexplicable commissions from inexplicable clubs together, go to Kyoto to play and spend the night together...

"...I'm acting like a fool."

The initiator of the messy and complicated relationship between each other is herself.

If there were no extra problems, if she fell in love with him naturally and pursued him normally, would she get a different result?
——Although until now, she didn't understand the real reason why he planned to reject her.

"Is it really because of Soya..." Akane Kirino looked at her, "What did he do to Hongzi? Did he peek at Hongzi while she was changing clothes?"

"Do not……"

Yoshikawa wiped his eyes, then shook his head, "It has nothing to do with Soya."

Since she was destined to be rejected by him, she hoped that only he and herself would know about this forever.

Is it time to stop pretending to like him in front of Akane?

How should we get along with each other afterwards?
Want to break up?

If you break up the relationship, how will you explain to Qian.

Or, just get along as normal as before?
But can she do it?

"..."

She didn't want to admit it, but she had to admit that everything had turned into a mess just as he said.

"I just suddenly don't know what to do in the future..." She looked at Akane Kirino, who was full of worry, and explained half-truth, "But it's all right now. Sorry, I made Akane worry."

Akane Kirino was taken aback for a moment, "'Later' is...?"

"It's about things like life and the future."

"Eh? Why are you suddenly thinking about such a thing?"

"I don't know. When I was changing clothes, I suddenly started thinking about it for no reason."

Yoshikawa forced a smile at her, "Because of this kind of thing, I became lethargic and cried in front of Akane... I really am a fool."

"Fool!"

Akane Kirino used both hands to pinch her cheek, pulling it left and right.

"I'm worried to death!"

"I'm sorry...it hurts, Akane."

She let go of her hand, pressed it on her shoulder again, and looked at her seriously:
"If Hongzi doesn't know what to do in the future, then leave your life to me. Even with Hongzi's share, I already have long-term plans."

"Long-term plan..."

Yoshikawa stared at her blankly, "What is it?"

"that is……"

Akane Kirino suddenly remembered Soya's confession, "Ah, we can't tell Hongzi yet. All in all, we must not disappoint Hongzi."

"..."

Yoshikawa was dazed for a while, leaned forward, and hugged her tightly.

"Okay, I'm very happy... I will leave my life to Qian."

Originally, it was to stay with Akane forever, so she became more and more involved with Soya... She was really a complete fool.

"Now, I'm back by Qian's side..."

"Eh?"

Akane Kirino looked down at her, "When did Hongzi ever leave me?"

"I mean... I only like Akane from now on."

"Hey... what about Soya?"

"..."

She rubbed against her chest, closed her eyes, "Let him go."

Akane Kirino was at a loss for a while.

Hongzi doesn't need Soya anymore...but she's not in a stable state right now, so she should just be talking casually, right?

After staying in the room on the second floor for a while, Akane Kirino went back first.

Send her to the entrance of the alley, and when she got home, her mother picked up the paper bag for the swimsuit.

"Hongzi, I washed this new swimsuit for you."

"Um……"

Just as she was about to go upstairs, Hongzi stopped after recovering.

"Mom, wait a minute!"
