designer who lives in the next room

"No, I don't like spicy food very much..." Natsume Haruko shook her head, but she didn't expect Yui to not listen at all.

"Okay, then let's eat Dandan noodles. Really, I haven't eaten for a long time!" Yui had already made a decision, and she couldn't wait when she opened the car door.

Natsume Haruko had no choice but to follow her out of the car. She felt that as long as she said she didn't want to eat before entering the store, there was still room for negotiation.But Yui didn't give her a chance to struggle at all, and before she could react, Yui had already pulled her tightly into the shop.

"Boss, two dandan noodles and two bottles of soda, thank you!" Yui helped Natsume Haruko order food. She originally wanted to drink some beer, but she had no choice but to drink some drinks first because she had to drive.

It seemed that there was no way to change it, and Natsume Haruko felt despair in her heart.

"Well, please put less chili on my portion." This was Natsume Haruko's last stubbornness. She really can't eat chili.

The weather in this city today is very good, full of sunshine but not too hot, you can feel the wind blowing while walking on the road, and it is easy to take away some of the heat from your body.

The airport is still very busy as usual, with some passengers walking in and out carrying bags while others are in a hurry.Two people walked out from the airport door, carrying suitcases and bags of souvenirs.

Most of them were hot pot ingredients and some snacks. Before Li Zixi left, she asked her mother to buy some for her, but she didn't expect her mother to buy so many for her.

The plastic pad was about to burst, and Le's hands were burning with pain.Compared to Li Zixi, Nanako on the side is much more relaxed. She has been breathing deeply since she came out, feeling the fresh air here.

"I can finally talk properly..." Nanako looked at the familiar things in front of her and said to Li Zixi beside her. She stayed in China for more than half a month, and she hardly talked to anyone except Li Zixi. Now that she has returned to her own home, she can finally stop being a mute.

"That's really congratulations to you." Although Li Zixi said this, her tone didn't feel a little bit happy. Instead, she threw a pack of snacks into Nanako's arms, "Help me get some, you The guy also feels sorry for his wife."

"..." Nanako held a large bag of snacks in her arms, "I told you not to bring these, you can also buy them here."

Nanako looked at the snacks in the bag, they could obviously buy them at an import store, why bother to bring them here from Li Zixi's hometown.

"That's different, this one is authentic." After resting for a while, Li Zixi felt relieved. She rubbed her fingers that were hurting from being strangled and said to Nanako, "You'll know when you eat it. Remember today's meal. Difficulty will make your food more delicious."

"Oh yeah, it looks like you've completely forgotten about your weight loss plan." Nanako sighed, Li Zixi seemed to have really forgotten, the eating and drinking these days made her belly round a lot , "If you go on like this, you will become a snowman."

"It's not that exaggerated, I'm still far away, okay?" Li Zixi squeezed her stomach, the smile on her face froze, she didn't notice it much at first, but when Nanako said that, she also felt that her The stomach became more and more obvious, "I think it's better for me to control it."

"Fortunately, I'm also a woman, otherwise someone might give up your seat on the bus." Nanako teased, she helped Li Zixi carry some luggage, and then the two of them started walking towards the bus station.

This is not China anymore, and it is impossible to take a taxi.

"If it's Nanako, I would also like to conceive your child." Li Zixi said to Nanako with a smile, but she immediately shook her head, "No, it should be Nanako who is pregnant with my child, or am I more like a husband? .”

Nanako glanced at Li Zixi, just now this person called herself "Nanako's wife".

"It's really..." Nanako sighed, the exhaustion of the journey made her very tired, and now Nanako just wants to go home and take a shower and have a good rest, "Whatever you say is fine, anyway You can't really get me pregnant."

The packages that Li Zixi brought back had been divided up by her, everyone got a share of the snacks and local products, even Aino Li Yuan who almost made the two of them collapse a while ago had a share.

In the next few days, Nanako and Li Zixi will send these to them one after another, and then they plan to have a good reunion. Even though they haven't seen each other for more than half a month, they still miss them a little.

Half a month is a very short period of time, and it doesn't sound like enough to change anything, but it does change, because of some things, these people are all connected together again.

At this time, Li Zixi never dreamed that she would see Su Changxi and Natsume Haruko again one day.

In the dandan noodle shop, the boss had already put a lot of spicy peppers in Natsume Haruko's bowl, but just like that, Natsume Haruko was panting like a puppy.She didn't eat a few mouthfuls of noodles, and she was almost full just by drinking water. She looked at Yui opposite, and she couldn't figure out why some people like to eat spicy peppers.

"Don't you usually eat wasabi?" Yui asked Natsume Haruko.

"Why don't you eat it? How is it possible to eat seafood...cough cough...don't eat wasabi..." Natsume Haruko was choked when she spoke, this meal was really delicious Disgusting, "But wasabi is different from chili. Wasabi is just a pungent nose, but chili is a real pain."

Yui thought about what Natsume Haruko said, and there seemed to be nothing wrong.

"Then you will miss a lot of food like this." Yui continued, "Many Chinese dishes have chili."

"...I actually seldom eat Chinese food." Natsume Haruko shook her head. She had never eaten authentic Chinese food, nor tasted authentic taste, so she had no interest in Chinese food.

"If you have a chance, you can try it. Some of the things Li Zixi made are really delicious..." Yui regretted saying this. From the current point of view, how could Natsume Haruko be able to eat what Li Zixi made? food.

"...can I have another bottle of soda?" Natsume Haruko changed the subject, so that she and Yui wouldn't feel embarrassed, "and can you not bring me to eat such a spicy one next time?" something..."

Volume [-]# A Little Envious

The weather in the past few days has been very good, the sun is sunny but not too hot, and the air is as fresh as ever, so when Li Zixi and Nanako returned to the residence, the first thing they did was to open the windows to let the fresh air refill every room in the room. a corner.

As for the reason why I had to open the window to take a breath when I came back, I have to say that it was the bowl of instant noodles that Li Zixi forgot to throw away before leaving. At that time, Li Zixi left in a hurry to catch the plane, and Li Zixi didn't think about it until the second day after returning to China. When I got up, I still had an unfinished bowl of instant noodles and threw it on the table.

The temperature in summer is already very high, plus no one is there and the air conditioner is not turned on, so when they left for a few days, the unfinished instant noodles have already started to deteriorate, and the doors and windows of the room are tightly closed, so wait The moment Nanako opened the door, a strange smell came over the surface.

It was too late for Nanako to put the things away, so she ran to open the window, but even so she was not satisfied, just a bowl of spoiled instant noodles has such great power, Nanako is now so glad that she threw away all the garbage in the kitchen before leaving Lost.While opening the doors and windows, Nanako also turned on the air conditioner to enhance the air circulation in the room. It took more than half an hour like this before the turbid air in the room was completely replaced.

At this moment Nanako can finally go back to rest on the sofa, Li Zixi also put all the luggage back where they should have been in the first place, but the bowl of instant noodles was still left on the table, Nanako looked at the hairy and blackened noodles, She really didn't want to reach out to touch it, the scene was really disgusting.

"After tidying up, go wash the dishes." Li Zixi walked out of the room holding the snacks in the suitcase. As soon as she came out, she saw Nanako sitting on the sofa staring at the instant noodles, and couldn't help but wrinkled Brow, I can work hard to pack my things here, but Nanako is fine, she just sat on the sofa and stared blankly.

When Nanako finished listening to what Li Zixi said, she directly gave Li Zixi an "unbelievable" expression. She pointed to the instant noodles on the table, "You want me to clean up the leftovers? And it's so disgusting." ,I do not want it."

"Hey, my dear Nanako, just do some work..." Li Zixi put the snacks in the cabinet, then picked two packs from it and threw them to Nanako, "Think about the last time the toilet was blocked and I cleaned it up." Well, after all, the one who blocked the toilet was you."

"But it wasn't as spectacular as this time, was it?" Nanako asked, of course she still remembered the scene last time, "Although I blocked the toilet, it was only because I accidentally threw the mask in That's all."

"So you're reasonable? Even if it's a mask, I have to use my hands..." Li Zixi would think of the scene that day as she spoke, and a disgusted expression immediately appeared on her face, "Forget it, Just thinking about it makes me sick."

Anyway, from that day on, Li Zixi put another trash can in the bathroom, specially for Nanako to throw away the mask.As for the bowl of instant noodles, it was Nanako who cleaned it up in the end. Although she was very reluctant, she knew that she was wrong, but she still couldn't hold back Li Zixi.

As for the rest of the room, it is no different from before, and the doors and windows will not be dusted after closing the doors and windows. After that, you only need to tidy up the window sill a little bit, but it’s hard to be away for more than half a month. Those flowers that Nanako raised on the balcony It's so careless, no one takes care of it, and no one buys automatic watering things. Those plants that are not drought-tolerant have all turned yellow and died, and there are only two pots of prickly pears left.

Nanako looked at the plants that had been dead for an unknown amount of time and kept sighing. Thinking about them, she felt sorry for them. When she was at home before, the cats in the house would always use their claws and mouths to break them into pieces. Finally, the cats were handed over to Jie Jie After a period of time, Yiyang became like this because of his own negligence.

It's okay that the leaves were damaged by cats, and it can grow some new leaves by itself, but now it's all over, the soil in the flowerpot is dry and cracked, and it can't be saved this time.However, Nanako recovered quickly, at least the flower pots were still there, and she would not travel far for a long time, so she just needed to buy some new plants to raise.

As soon as Yuyi was mentioned, Li Zixi remembered the cat she raised, and wondered if that guy Yuyi had fed it well, and whether he had become a qualified temporary excrement shoveler.Hearing Li Zixi's doubts, Nanako told her not to worry, Yui is not alone now, she has a more reliable Kimura Asuka by her side.

In fact, when Nanako sent the cat to Yui, she thought that Yui would not be responsible for Nana's daily care, so she felt a little sorry for Asuka Kimura.

"Then let's go get it back tonight?" Li Zixi said to Nanako, after all, it was her pet, although she also knew that Yui and the others would not treat Nana badly, but since she was back, then don't Continue to trouble others, "By the way, go and see Yui, and give her some special products."

Nanako agreed, but she had to wait a little later, because she was too sleepy now. She didn't sleep well on the plane and now she had to take a shower and catch up on sleep. She wouldn't wake up until eight or nine o'clock in the evening. And at that time, Yui would also be staying in the bar, so it would be easier to find her.

Nanako would never have imagined that when she and Li Zixi were talking about Yui, Yui was wandering around the mall with Natsume Haruko, not to buy anything, but the two of them didn't know where they were going.And Nanako would not have imagined that during the time they were away, not only the relationship between Yui and Natsume Haruko had changed, but even Iori Kyoko and Su Changxi, who hadn't been in touch with them for a long time, also found closed the door.

The shopping mall is not as quiet as the residential area. Even though it is summer, there will still be so many people rushing to the shopping mall to shop. Yui's face has clearly shown an unhappy expression, but Natsume Haruko on the side is Not to mention, very few people would be willing to come out with her, so she also wanted to extend this time as much as possible.

"Who said it would be cool in the mall..." Yui couldn't help complaining when she just walked up to the third floor. She looked up at the central air conditioner on the ceiling and said, "Is there any air conditioning in this pipe?"

"There should still be some, right?" Natsume Haruko was not too sure, she also felt a little strange when Jing Yui complained. The temperature in this mall is indeed lower than outside, but it doesn't make people feel cool. So she ran under a vent and stretched out her hand, and sure enough, she felt a gust of wind blowing down from it.

So she said to Yui proudly, "Look, let me tell you, there is still some wind, but it's not very cool."

"If the wind from the air conditioner isn't cool, doesn't that mean it doesn't have it?" Yui didn't know what Natsume Haruko was proud of. When the passers-by around her walked away, she couldn't wait to grab her collar and blow in a few breaths.

It turned out to be like this, no wonder Yui felt very hot, Natsume Haruko understood her movements only after watching her.

Compared with Yui, Natsume Haruko's figure is a little worse, and the "hills" that are slightly flatter will not generate extra heat, so Natsume Haruko feels that the mall is not that hot, but this is the case She was a little speechless, even though the relationship between her and Yui was much better than before, it was not yet to the point where she could talk about each other's figure.

And Natsume Haruko always thinks that the reason why Yui treats her like this is just to fulfill the agreement between her and her mother, so Natsume Haruko can't make a judgment on whether Yui treats herself like this is sincere.

Suddenly, Yui's cell phone rang, it was a text message from Li Zixi.

Probably just asking her if she has time tonight. He and Nanako are going to pick up Nana and bring her and Asuka Kimura some souvenirs.

"Is there something wrong?" Natsume Haruko asked Yui, she was shorter than Yui, so she couldn't read the text on Yui's phone.Having said that, in fact, even if she could see it, Natsume Haruko would not be able to see it. She was just emotionally unstable and it didn't mean she didn't know the most basic manners.

"It's nothing serious, it's just that Li Zixi sent a text message saying he would come to see me at night." Yuyi said it without thinking, but she realized something was wrong just after she finished speaking, and she said Li Zixi's name as if nothing had happened. So she hurriedly looked at Natsume Haruko, who was obviously stunned when she heard Li Zixi's name.

Natsume Haruko knew that Yui and Li Zixi had a good relationship, so it was not strange to hear the names of Li Zixi or Nanako from Yui's mouth, but even if she had thought about it, she would still be confused when she heard the name. Feel very strange.

She didn't know how to answer Yui. She didn't know whether she should pretend not to hear what she had done before or ask Li Zixi how she had been in the past few years, so she could only stand there blankly. She didn't speak at the same place, and after a long time, she scratched her head with her hands in embarrassment and said to Yui, "If you are busy, you can go first, I know the way back."

Maybe Yui also felt a little embarrassed, so when Natsume Haruko finished speaking, she immediately shook her head, "No, no, it's still early, and it's not a big deal, it's just that she raised a cat and put it with me , besides, I promised your mother that I will send you back."

"You don't have to listen to her completely, I'm not a child anymore." Natsume Haruko sighed, she knew that her mother was out of kindness, but she was a bit overprotective, "She also raised a cat Really, I'm a little envious."

Volume [-]#The guy is gone

Speaking of cats, Yui suddenly remembered that Japan is a big country for raising cats. Almost everyone with a yard has one or two cats, but he has never seen any cats in Natsume's yard.

So Yui turned around and asked Natsume Haruko, "Your yard is so big, it's not a problem to raise two or three cats, right? Since you feel envious, why don't you raise two yourself?"

Natsume Haruko knew that Yui would ask such a question, so she showed a helpless expression on her face, "I also want to raise it, but my mother is allergic to cat fur, in other words, to all furry animals They are all allergic, so let alone cats, they can’t even raise rabbits or birds.”

It turned out to be the case, and Yui also remembered that Natsume once said that she didn't like animals. Yui always thought that the reason she didn't like animals was because she found it troublesome to raise them.But for this reason, Yui has nothing to do. Allergies are not other diseases, and they are generally difficult to cure, so she can only secretly sympathize with Natsume Haruko.

"What kind of cat does she have?" I thought the conversation about Li Zixi would end here, but I didn't expect Haruko Natsume to continue asking. I don't know if she is really interested in that cat or just wants to Talk to Yui about Li Zixi.

"Not sure, even Li Zixi herself doesn't know." Yui shook her head, and then she told Natsume Haruko how Li Zixi got the cat, "It's a little wild cat, but it's cute. .”

Natsume Haruko nodded after listening. In her eyes, cats are not unlovable creatures, even if some cats look strange.However, after she heard the story, she still felt that Nanako doted on Li Zixi so much that she would run to find that cat in the rain. Such a thing was absolutely impossible for herself.

"If only I could go and see that cat one day." Natsume Haruko seemed to be talking to herself, and Yui didn't know whether to answer her or not.Judging from the current situation, Li Zixi's cat, Natsume Haruko, will never be seen. On the one hand, it is absolutely impossible for Li Zixi to be willing to see Natsume Haruko, and on the other hand, Natsume Haruko's mother also said that she must not let her My daughter had contact with Li Zixi and the others.

There may be opportunities in the future, but at least not now.

In Yui's impression, Li Zixi's personality is not bad, except for the small temper she often has, she is basically a magnanimous person, and it is not once or twice that she quarreled with Nanako, but regarding the things she is thinking now, she still Decided to see Li Zixi's reaction first.Soon she will go to solve the matter that Iori Kyoko asked her to ask her. If Li Zixi can forgive Su Changxi, then she may take Natsume Haruko to see Li Zixi's cat one day in the future, but if Li Zixi treats Su Changxi If the reaction is very contradictory, then the matter is basically out of the question.

"I know a cat cafe, do you want to go?" Yui changed the subject, she didn't want Haruko Natsume to continue to pay attention to Li Zixi's affairs, and now she has learned that Haruko Natsume likes cats, in her mind Li immediately had a plan for the next step.

She felt that Natsume Haruko would not refuse her proposal, and even someone like her who didn't like animals very much would occasionally go to the cat cafe to relax.So after she finished speaking, Natsume Haruko nodded immediately. It could be seen that she was really interested, and this mall was really boring.

After buying two bottles of drinks at the vending machine in the shopping mall, Yui took Natsume Haruko to the cat cafe. I have to say that the cats in the cat cafe are too entrepreneurial. Yui and Natsume Haruko just walked into the store , Before the clerk had time to talk to them, those cute cats surrounded her, three or four surrounded Natsume Haruko, rubbing her ankles non-stop.

Just like an ordinary girl, Natsume Haruko was immediately immersed in the joy of being surrounded by cats. It seemed that she had completely forgotten about Li Zixi and Li Zixi's cats now.

Yui bought some cat snacks for Natsume Haruko, and asked her to play with the cats by herself, while she sat by the window and chatted with the shop owner.Yui would occasionally come here with Kimura Asuka before, and the boss could also know their relationship from their closeness, so I was a little surprised when I saw Yui leading Natsume Haruko here at the beginning .

The boss took a piece of cake and put it in front of Yui, glanced at Natsume Haruko who was sitting on the carpet and playing with the cat, and then started a joke with Yui, "Why, did you change it? This kid looks older Much younger than you, right?"

"It's really a little small." Yui dug a spoonful of cake and said to the boss, "But I don't have that kind of relationship with her. How should I put it, this child should be my sister."

"Should be my sister? Is there a story in this?" The boss continued to smile, but she also believed Yui's words. She knew that Yui would not change girlfriends easily, and even if she did, she would not I brought my girlfriend to this shop like this. After all, she came here not long ago with Asuka Kimura, "How about this cake, which one is better than the one made by yours?"

"Of course it's because your cooking tastes better, boss." Yui answered without thinking, but it made the boss curl his lips.

"You guys can really talk, and I'm quite happy when you say it." The boss made an expression of "I understand", "Although I know in your heart, the one in your house cooks better, After all, she specializes in opening a dessert shop, so if you have a chance, you can bring her here a few more times, and let me learn more from her."

In fact, Asuka Kimura has taught her a lot, but the boss doesn't seem to have much talent in making cakes, but Yui couldn't say this directly, so she had to agree to the boss and told her to wait until she was done. After the day, I will bring Kimura Asuka to come here a few more times.

"Then it's settled. I'll give you a discount when the time comes." The boss patted his chest and told Yui, and then went to work on other things.

There are many cats in this cat cafe, most of them are very expensive cats, so they have to do a lot of care every day, whether it is nail clipping, bathing or grooming, the boss is also very busy all day.

It is also because of this reason that the consumption level of this cafe is very high. It will cost a lot of money to buy something to drink and eat for the cat, but looking at Natsume Haruko's happy face now Yui felt that the money was well worth the money.Today's daily expenses and invoices were all kept in Yui's wallet, and if it was impossible, he could go to Natsume for reimbursement. That guy is a rich woman, and this small amount of money is nothing to her.

For the time being, I can leave Natsume Haruko alone, the sun shining on Yui's body makes her feel sleepy suddenly, there is no time limit in this cafe, and she can stay until after get off work, so Yui plans to take a nap.She turned her head to look at Natsume Haruko again, who was still playing with the cats, and for some reason there were more and more cats around her, it seemed that she couldn't get away for a while.

Besides, if Natsume Haruko wanted to leave, she would definitely tell herself, and it would be good to wake herself up at that time.

After going out to play for a day, the amount of exercise was far beyond normal, Yui couldn't hold on any longer, and just fell asleep on the table.She also had a dream, dreaming that Asuka Kimura was angry because Yui broke her and the cat cafe owner's cake was delicious, and even forced her to exercise...

Anyway, not a very good dream.

It was uncomfortable to sleep lying on the table, plus I had such a dream, it would be better not to sleep if Yui fell asleep this time. When she opened her eyes, the sun had already set and the sky was dyed red.Yui, who had a sore back, aching neck and a little pain in the neck, got up. She wanted to ask Haruko Natsume to leave. It was almost time for dinner at Natsume's house, and it was time for Yui to send her back.

But she couldn't find Natsume Haruko in the store. She was surrounded by cats before, and she was nowhere to be found. Those cats were also scattered everywhere in the store, and she seemed to be very tired after playing all day.Yui immediately panicked, it would be fine if it was someone else, but it may not be Natsume Haruko.

She immediately ran over to find the shop owner, but she didn't ask Natsume Haruko's whereabouts.

And her cell phone happened to be turned off at this time because it ran out of battery, and she didn't have Natsume Haruko's cell phone number a few times, so she couldn't even make a call.There was a bad feeling in her heart. If Natsume Haruko acted alone, it would be full of danger to her and others.

"If the child who came with me comes back, let her sit in my car and wait for me." Yui threw the car keys to the boss, "And if she comes back, definitely help me keep an eye on her, don't let She ran around."

The boss was very puzzled holding the car keys. Natsume Haruko was not a child of only a few years old, but also a woman in her 20s, so she didn't know why Yui was so flustered because of this incident, but looking at Even though she was very puzzled by Yui's appearance, she could still feel that there must be a reason for Yui to be like this.

There is still a long time before the end of get off work, so the boss agreed to Yui's request. Seeing Yui running away in a hurry, she could only pray in her heart that nothing troublesome would happen.

Although Yui ran out of the store, she didn't have any clue about where to find Natsume Haruko. She felt that Natsume Haruko was most likely to go home by herself, maybe because she saw Yui sleeping So I don't want to disturb her, but according to Natsume Haruko's personality, if she wants to go home first, she will at least tell the store manager.

And Yui didn't dare to contact Natsume Haruko's mother. If she guessed wrong, if Natsume Haruko didn't come home, wouldn't that mean she lost Natsume Haruko? If so, Natsume Haruko was fine. If not, he must be in bad luck.

Volume [-]#Please don't tell my mother

It was completely unexpected where Natsume Haruko would go, the sky had begun to gradually darken, and Yui, who had walked several streets, didn't even see anyone who looked like Natsume Haruko.

Before, she never thought that she would take care of Natsume Haruko one day, so she had no idea what Natsume Haruko would like or where she would like to go, so she could only look for it from store to store, and everything might affect young people. She would go in and take a look at any store that attracted her attention, but no one had seen Natsume Haruko, whether it was a toy store or a milk tea store.

"It's really weird!" Yui, who had exhausted most of her physical strength, was a little angry. She had been running outside and she was covered in sweat. She bought a bottle of cold mineral water from a vending machine and drank half of it in one go." Where did you go alone?"

Time is moving towards the time agreed with Natsume Haruko's mother. If she can't send Natsume Haruko back in time, she will become a dishonest person. Although Yui doesn't mind such an evaluation, but if she really If Natsume Haruko or someone else is injured because of this incident, then she must have some troubles.

I could only keep walking to find it. On the one hand, Yui was looking forward to seeing a guy similar to Natsume Haruko, and on the other hand, she was also looking forward to her returning to the Cat Cafe and being locked in the car by the boss.
