April is more than your lies

"Also, Hoshino-san... when discussing snacks, topics such as calories are absolutely forbidden. Otherwise, the magic hidden in the sweetness will disappear."

"Is it……"

No wonder, every time I remind Hesha not to eat too many snacks, she always gets a lot of complaints.

Now it seems that I have only received a few words of criticism, which is a rare treat.

Thinking of this, Shenwu's smile became calmer.

"I remember."

Volume 46: Chapter 45 Chapter [-] The missing part in life

Regarding "happiness", Shen Wu can't say that he hasn't thought about it. After all, it is a commonly used word in life.

And his thinking is limited to the understanding of the words themselves. Beyond this, something that truly has some "meaning" seems far away from him...

While preparing dinner, he also put the pudding in the refrigerator. He could eat it as long as Hesha finished practicing the piano tonight. As for reaping the "happiness" from magic like this, he actually had that. A little confused.

At the very least, it is somewhat difficult for him to turn something that is extremely devoid of reality into a "sweetness" that makes people love and hate it.

But it should be different at Kazusa’s place, right?

Knowing that the pudding was ready and that she would only have to wait a few hours to eat it, the girl could hardly restrain herself from jumping with every step she took.

When he accidentally caught a glimpse of her back, Shenwu tried to close her swaying hair with a certain piece of music in his mind, and the music he matched was all music that made people happy.

"Hesha, why do you like to eat pudding?"

"Why do you ask this all of a sudden?"

In addition to "calories", various strange problems are also things that reduce happiness.

When Shingo asked, Hesha knew that he was destined to be unable to come up with the answer, so he frowned and stopped thinking. If anything, this could be regarded as Hesha's "little cleverness".

"I just eat it and feel like it...I don't think about so many complicated things."

"Is that so..."

After eating it and then liking it, naturally there are also things that you won’t like after eating it, such as green peppers, and various vegetables...

If the way to treat certain things is completely decided based on likes or dislikes, the person who acts like this must be willful to a certain extent - Kazusa is a little better, at least she will listen to Shingo's advice, such as eating food that is well seasoned vegetables.

Shingo tried to recall the earliest origin of Kazusa's hobby, but his memory started with that cute little girl holding an oversized pudding in her hand.

"I remember that Hesa ​​loved pudding when she was a child."

"Yeah...are you thinking about something weird again?"

"I'm thinking that Hesa ​​started eating pudding first, maybe it was brought by Aunt Yaozi... I remember that she also likes snacks."

Rather, this mother and daughter are simply sweet tooth stars, otherwise they would not be able to consume sugar as much as they want without gaining weight.

"When you eat snacks, do you feel...happy?"

"That woman Yaozi Touma actually told you this?"

Hesha was stunned for a moment.

"Sugar is something that can make people feel happy. Because they want a lot of happiness, they eat a lot of snacks... When she was a child, she said it was a secret, but now that she thinks about it, she must be making me happy, right?"

Even though she scoffed at her mother's words, Kazusa still ate a lot of snacks.

"Aunt Yaozi has never experienced this with me..."

Thinking of this, Shen Wu couldn't help but laugh, but when he wanted to speak again, his voice was stuck in his throat.

Should I say that this was what the classmate I met in the supermarket told me today?

It's also a secret, maybe the other party also heard it from his mother...

From beginning to end, there was a lingering haze in Shenwu's heart. Compared to "happiness", the word "mom" was actually much more concrete to Shenwu. After all, there were photos preserved.

However, he suddenly realized today that he had no chance to hear all kinds of secrets from his mother that could make life "happy".

Think about it, his understanding of the world is missing the most delicate and tender part.

"What's wrong?"

Hesha sometimes wonders why Shingo always frowns for no reason. Compared with her little tempers, Shingo's moody personality is actually more troublesome.

"If possible, Hesha...can you tell me what Aunt Yaozi told you? It's like...sugar can bring happiness or something like that."

"..."

Hesha was a little confused, but she still started thinking while she was silent.

However, regarding mother's "teachings", apart from things on the piano, there doesn't seem to be much serious stuff...

She could probably guess that Shenwu was in a bad mood because he thought about his mother, whom she had never met. As for the deeper reason, she thought it was something that she couldn't get into.

What's more, the most regrettable thing is... even if she is extremely willing, she cannot share the warmth she received from her mother with Shingo - naturally she cannot share something she has never owned.

"That's all nonsense. That's Touma Yaozi. What do you think...she will say to me?"

"Aunt Yaozi..."

An elder who is...unspeakable.

Shingo condensed enough adjectives to fill an entire book down to just four words. He understood what Kazusa said, so he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Thinking about it this way, the elders of the two of them are actually quite difficult to describe...

"She should and will hope for a good relationship with Sha."

"Should you? Are you saying something that you're not even sure about to make me lose my temper?"

Just because you are in a bad mood now, I won’t care about you...

Shenwu couldn't comfort Hesha, and vice versa. Everyone had a few obstacles in their hearts that they couldn't get past, and the two of them happened to be stuck in the same place.

This can be regarded as the "evil fate" between them.

"Happiness, do you even care about this kind of thing?"

"Yes, sometimes I will think of it..."

Even strangers passing by will be touched. Living in this world, this kind of discomfort is inevitable...

The most important thing is that no matter how arrogant or arrogant Shenwu is, he cannot deny that he hopes to have a "happiness". No one wants to live a bad life, not even him.

"Sorry, Kazusa... said something strange again."

"If you are apologizing because you said something strange to me, then...the only thing you can say to me in the future is sorry."

Kazusa would not accept such an unwarranted apology. She just hoped that Shingo could be normal.

"Just do whatever you want. There's nothing you can't do anyway... If you get what you want, you won't feel too bad after all, right?"

"That's right..."

From this point of view, happiness is a rather luxurious feeling...

Shenwu felt that he needed to clear his mind, otherwise he would become an idiot because he thought about too many strange things.

"Hesa, let's practice the piano for a while?"

This is the best way for him to relieve his mood.

Volume 47: Chapter 46 Chapter [-] It’s nothing more than what you deserve

It's not difficult to boil the syrup, and it's also not difficult to pour the boiled syrup onto an inverted bowl, so the pudding prepared by Shingo for Hesa ​​and Hesa ​​has an extra layer of sugar shell.

The happiness brought by such a small trick can turn the ice and snow in Hesha's heart into a whole spring. In a daze, Shenwu seems to see the cute little girl many years ago.

This can only be attributed to the fact that he has been habitually immersed in memories over the years, so that even though Hesha is right in front of him now, he is still obsessed with the past.

When he is in a good mood, Shen Wu feels that this is not a bad thing. At least those illusions that were not unfathomable in the past are now in the best state he can imagine.

"..."

"..."

"..."

Hesha probably wanted to say something, but she hesitated every time she met Shingo's eyes. Until she finished a large portion of pudding in two or three bites - it seemed that this girl didn't feel any anxiety at all. disturbed.

He made delicious snacks, so he encountered something quite lucky tonight - this joke-like prophecy came true, and Shingo felt that it would be a good idea to start believing in the existence of magic from now on.

"I still want to eat!"

"Don't tell me you only did this one!"

Shingo only hesitated for a second, and Kazusa lost her temper, because she was in such a good mood that she could not be blamed enough for daring to make her unhappy at this time.

If Shingo dares to say that there is only one serving of pudding tonight, then it is foreseeable that his fate will not be much different from the sugar shell that was knocked to pieces by Kazusa with a spoon.

"Two more..."

It seems that they will not survive tonight...

Shingo smiled and sighed. He felt that he might be able to rub Kazusa's cheek now, and because he thought it might be nice to do so, he happily took action.

Hesha's cute expression of narrowing her eyes and smiling was rubbed into a ball by him, but she didn't lose her temper. It seemed that his guess was right.

"Too little...I still want to eat tomorrow morning..."

This is, are you kidding me?

Girls can act coquettishly, but the problem is... how a cold beauty as tall as an orchid behaves like a coquettish person has always been a mystery to Shingo - even now.

Because he suddenly realized that what his father said was not entirely correct.When Kazusa's eyebrows grow, she will indeed be a cold and arrogant beauty, but the problem is that her coquettish behavior is almost the same as when she was a child.

I want to see the indifferent Kazusa act coquettishly...

Just like Hesado's greed in wanting to eat a few puddings, Shingo is also used to taking advantage of the situation.

"Because it's the first time I'm making it, I didn't make too much... Just wait until tomorrow. I'll make one more tomorrow so that Kazusa can have a snack at breakfast."

"no!"

Hesha's greed is easy to satisfy, but on her side...

After shaking his head with a smile, Shingo retracted his hand, but this action aroused Kazusa's anger.

"no!"

Maybe, my greed is not too much?

Shen Wu thought this, but he didn't expect that his wish would come true so quickly.

Now Hesha has indeed returned to her usual cold and arrogant appearance, or in other words, she feels that she has shown her usual indifference and arrogance. However, there is an irresistible softness in her eyes, and her textured voice also carries a sweetness. soft.

Pudding is indeed a magical food with magic.

"I also want to eat at noon, and when I come back from school in the afternoon! I also want to eat when I come back from school in the afternoon! Like today, if I can't resist going without snacks for such a long time, only once is enough!"

"Then how much do you want to eat!? Pudding Star..."

Sure enough, for such a cute girl, if you don’t pinch her, it would be a shame to be so cute...

Shenwu used an adjective that had been hidden in his heart for a long time. His tone was frivolous, but he also concealed gentleness.

"Three for dinner and one for breakfast. If you bring the pudding to school at noon, the flavor will be much different, so it doesn't count..."

"Only for breakfast...well..."

Shingo was originally reluctant to use too much force on his hands, but Hesha's greedy attitude made him feel that he needed to "punish" this lovely girl, but in the end, he was still relieved.

"You bullied me again, you evil-minded guy..."

"The pudding I made is super large, four a day... It's almost the same as the daily calories needed by an adult, Hesha..."

In the end, he couldn't help mentioning things that made people unhappy.

If Teru and Sa continue to eat like this, even if they don't gain weight, they will get cavities sooner or later...

Happiness is a very precious thing. If you advance too much in advance, you will need to repay it with pain or other things in the future. Shenwu understands this.

"Even tonight, I can only eat two, and save the remaining one for tomorrow morning."

"Well……"

This unquestionable statement made Kazusa lose her energy. Normally, she would have been furious, but Shingo's magic hidden in the pudding was so powerful that her mood became soft. I can't even say anything against it.
