After quickly ordering, Izayo smiled and returned the menu to the waiter, then turned his gaze away and looked at Yinglili who was lying on the opposite side of the table.

"Tired so soon?"

"No, I was looking at you just now." Ying Lili smiled comfortably.

"I can see it every day, what's so interesting about it." Shizayo also smiled.

Ying Lili lowered her eyes, rested her chin on her arms, and shook her head gently from side to side, "There are various reasons, and I don't really know what to say."

"Then let's talk about it after you think it over." Sixteen nights pursed his lips.

"Um……"

Ying Lili agreed, and raised her eyelids again, as if she was hiding behind the flowers to peep, her eyes were full of secret joy, Shizai Ye couldn't help being stunned for a moment, as if the sunset glow on the street outside the window at this moment was also eclipsed.

"Speaking of which, when my mother invited you to dinner that day, she originally wanted to call me, but I stayed with you until the next day, and I couldn't prepare..." Ying Lili casually said something else.

"Even if I had time to prepare, I wouldn't let you go with me." Sixteen nights said slowly.

"Hey?"

"Auntie will spot it when we meet." Izayoi curled up his index finger and thumb, and tapped the remaining three fingers on the table muffledly, "Not to mention that Aunt Sayuri is very sharp, she is still you. Mom, besides me, is the person who knows you best in this world... If you stayed with me overnight, if it was just a night, she would probably be able to tell at a glance. "

"That's right." Ying Lili stuck out her tongue playfully, admitting that Shizaiye's judgment was completely correct, "Then what did you tell your mother that day? When she called, I said that if there was no one at home, I would borrow Living here in the other residence of the Tachibana family, my mother agreed very straightforwardly."

"Probably I want you to recuperate physically and mentally by my side." Izayoi said with a clear expression, "Especially on the premise that I have met me many times and are familiar with it."

"Hey?"

Izayoi naturally reached out and stroked Yinglili's forehead hair, "Just like what Wan Lihua said, Aunt Sayuri also has the same idea."

"... Mom, mom thinks that too?" Ying Lili sat up in surprise.

"Strictly speaking, it's not as exaggerated as Wanlihua." Sixteen nights smiled and signaled her not to be too anxious, "From the perspective of Aunt Lily, she just wants you to meet someone who is completely strange but not annoying to you, and then Use this 'foreign object' of interpersonal relationship to change your previous life state."

"...I see." Eiriri tilted her head slightly, taking a slanted peek at Izayoi. ,

What kind of "completely strange but not annoying" is this, it is exactly the person who lost and found again!

Clearly aware of her mother's concern, Ying Lili couldn't help but began to think badly, what kind of expression would her mother show if she knew the real identity of Shizaye in the future?

"But don't expect too much." Sixteen nights suddenly said, "Even if you don't recognize me at a glance like you, Auntie has so many years of experience and her unique intuition..."

Although it was just Izayoi's own subjective guess, he always felt that from Wan Lihua's birthday party, Sayuri Sawamura, through some irrational cause and effect, connected him with the "Shinomiya Shizhu" who died seven years ago. "Connected together.

Of course, Izayo still hoped that it was just his reverence for Aunt Sayuri's extraordinary insight since he was a child.

Ying Lili also quickly digested the information that Shiliuye had vaguely revealed, and planned to discuss with him how to hide it from her mother, but before she could speak, a voice interrupted her intention.

"Oh, sixteen nights, long time no see." A familiar voice sounded.

"Long time no see, Emperor." Izayoi greeted.

Only then did Ying Lili realize that it was Si Tiao Di, she turned her head without thinking much, frightened the emperor who just came over to greet him, and staggered a little.

"Uh... This, isn't this student Ying Lili? Long time no see."

After all, he is the rising star of the Sijo family, and his ability to adapt is not trivial.

"Well, long time no see, Dijun." Ying Lili greeted politely.

"I really didn't expect to meet here... I'm still with Izayoi." Di showed a kind smile.

Seven years of self-isolation made people as naive as Ying Lili, and she also noticed that Sijo Tei smiled reluctantly.

"Wanlihua went to the Shinomiya villa today for business, and Sawamura-san needed to go home to get something, so let me be a flower protector." Izayoya lied without changing his expression.

The emperor was stunned, "Oh... oh..."

His eyes then glanced at the shopping bag placed next to the seats for the two of them, which contained books, comics and physical disk boxes. Even the protector of flowers, Izayoi was too considerate in his service.

Di suddenly felt a little uneasy.

After Shi Zhu left, he didn't want to talk too much about the private affairs of these old friends, but the current situation couldn't allow him to keep silent, but it was very abrupt to talk directly to Wan Lihua... What should I do...

Although he looks talented, unlike Dianthus, who is extremely lucky, Di is quite innocent in his personal feelings.

It's just two extremes.

"What's the matter?" Sixteen Nights pointed to Di's back, "You came with your friends, it will look strange if you stay here for too long."

The emperor shrugged, "It's okay, we just came over to have a dinner after the club activities."

At this moment, the waiter of the restaurant just came over to serve the meal, God knew it was not good to continue talking here, he looked at Izayoi with a complicated expression, and sighed again.

"Let's do it for ourselves..."

Then, after leaving a quiet but clear sentence, he turned and went to his friends.

After the waiter left, Ying Lili covered her mouth and asked Shiliuye in a low voice: "Does your current status have a bad relationship with him... How can he say that he can do things for himself?"

"No, as Tachibana Izayo, I actually have a good relationship with him." Izayo smiled and shook his head.

Ying Lili tasted it again. The emperor's attitude just now was indeed not bad, but it seemed that he was considering whether to help keep it secret.

"So why on earth would he say that?"

"Because of you."

"Ah?" Ying Lili didn't turn the corner this time.

Izayo suppressed a laugh, continued to lower his voice, and moved forward.

"He... thought I cheated on you."

"……puff……"

Chapter 20 I've been misunderstood anyway, it's okay to pretend it's true.JPG

People have to eat every day, but if Ying Lili were to rank the most difficult meal in her 17 years of life so far, the dinner just now would probably be ranked first.

As the saying goes, the authorities are obsessed with the onlookers, but the situation on Yinglili's side is reversed.

It is the authorities who are clear and the bystanders are fans.

Compared with the embarrassing emotions such as feeling uncomfortable, Ying Lili's first feeling is that she wants to laugh, but she can't laugh in the restaurant. In that case, let alone whether Sijo Tei will find out and then notice something, just the sight of other customers in the store is enough trouble.

After overcoming all kinds of difficulties, Izayoi hailed a taxi after finally finishing his meal.

In the car, every time Ying Lili wanted to talk to him, she started laughing as soon as she opened her mouth. By the time she got off the car outside Spencer's villa, Ying Lili was almost out of strength to walk.

After all, she had had enough laughs, Ying Lili squatted at the door for a while, then tried to stand up, and entered her home with Shizaye.

After Izayoi, who was walking behind, closed the small entrance and exit door, he walked behind Ying Lili and made a slightly emotional sound.

"This place hasn't changed much from before."

"Huh? Yes." Ying Lili slowed down and walked back to his side.

Except for the pillars and stone fences in the courtyard, where the obvious signs of age can be seen, the flowers, plants and trees are not so easy to see.

"The trees over there have grown so tall." Izayoi looked at the trees on the balcony, "Now can I climb from under the trees to the window on the third floor?"

"Almost, like last year or the year before last." Ying Lili tried hard to recall.

But she couldn't remember it at all.

"The canopy of the tree is a little too dense, so the lighting is not very good during the day?" Shizayoi stopped, looked thoughtfully at the tree in front of the building and said.

"Ah... this..." Ying Lili was a little embarrassed.

At first the tree grew taller, and the family thought about pruning the branches and leaves more, so as not to block the lighting of Ying Lili's bedroom on the second floor, but Ying Lili also stopped it.

"Although I am a bit narcissistic, I guess the reason is mostly related to me?"

"Yes." Ying Lili couldn't help being a little proud.

It was obviously a very willful reason tolerated by her parents, but she never felt that it was completely right, and now that it was pointed out by Izayo, she seemed a little proud, and she couldn't help puffing up her chest.

"Didn't you like to climb that tree before... Especially jumping from the top of the tree to the balcony on the second floor, you are really not afraid of danger." Ying Lili recalled happily, "Sometimes when I look at the taller and taller trees, I wonder if you will climb up again someday, and lie to me that the tree is not high at all, and we climb up together to sit and watch the scenery—"

"No way." Izayo simply denied it.

"Huh?" Ying Lili's smile froze as if struck by lightning.

"Because it's really high, let's not talk about the height of the second floor before... the level of the third floor now." Izayoyo kept nodding his head, "Not to mention the past, even if you fall now, something will definitely happen."

Ying Lili felt her fist harden, she slammed the back of Shi Zhu's shoulder hard, and went into the room angrily.

Feeling a soft pat, Izayo could not help laughing, and hurriedly chased after him.

"Really... Seven years of filters can't beautify your mouth." When going upstairs, Ying Lili made faces at him from the side, "I'm an idiot for thinking so much."

"Because it's really dangerous." Izayoi told her truthfully, "There are many things in this world that are more dangerous than climbing a three-story tree... I hope you can avoid them."

Ying Lili stood at the door of the room, her shoulders froze.

"It's only now...I don't agree." Ying Lili held back her smile and acted like a baby.

"That's right." Izayoi completely agreed.

This trip home, Ying Lili, actually just wanted to find her shorthand book, there were a lot of drafts of this and that, and she would often write down some important compositional inspirations.

But whether it will be transferred to canvas is another question.

"I said..." Ying Lili sat on the edge of the bed, looked at the books and comics that Shiliuye bought for herself on the bookshelf, and hesitated to speak.

"what?"

"Can you still draw?"

"It's okay, but because I haven't practiced with you these years and I have other things to do, my level may not be enough for you to see." Sixteen nights said, "I have seen the works you took for the competition, and the progress is rapid. If you It’s hard to catch up if you can’t settle down to chase it.”

"That's it..." Yinglili responded happily.

It turned out that he had been watching him from afar.

"What's wrong? Asking this suddenly, even if you are the teacher who introduced me, I can only honestly tell you that my level is terrible."

Ying Lili couldn't help laughing, "No, I just wondered why you insisted on drawing me when you said that before."

"Oh?"

"After all, you used to look exactly like Sister Huiye, wouldn't it be alright if you changed her appearance?" Ying Lili put forward her own idea.

Izayoi finished tidying up and sat beside her, "Theoretically speaking, but after all, I changed my appearance before that, and I don't even know how similar I am to my sister. Therefore, I need a face that looks like my sister but not like her—"

"So you need me to personally 'design' the appearance of the 17-year-old 'Shinomiya Shizhu'?"

"That's right. If it's you, you should be able to do it." Sixteen nights hugged Ying Lili's shoulders, "You don't have to force it."

Ying Lili tilted her head and leaned against his chest, "Not at all, it's more interesting. And——"

"and?"

She couldn't help talking to herself, "It would be nice to be able to participate in what Shi Zhu has to do, even if it's just hiding in the formation and writing and drawing."

"Oh..." Sixteen nights deliberately sighed.

"It's Izayoi." Ying Lili changed her words with a smile.

"It's all good, there are only two of us here, you can call it whatever you want." Sixteen nights patted her arm, "Your room is still the same as before."

"Because there's nothing much to change... except the furniture is a bit old." Ying Lili sniffed the smell on Shizayoi's clothes, her breathing gradually became chaotic, "Well... when will Wan Lihua go home?"

"It takes about two or three hours to visit, so it must be after nine o'clock." Shiliuye felt what Ying Lili meant, and answered her softly.

"Then...we still have some time, right?"

Ying Lili sat up slightly in his arms, clumsily hooked his neck, and stammered a reason:

"Anyway, the emperor misunderstood that you were cheating on me anyway, so it would be a shame not to have some fait accompli..."

"There's no need to do that at all."

"I, I would like to, um~~"

Chapter 21 Four Siblings Don't Matter

That night, after Shijo Zhenfei returned home, she heard a very outrageous thing from the family members.

Her younger brother, Sijodi, had been squatting in the toilet for two hours and hadn't come out. At first, the servants at home thought it was strange, so they knocked on the door in about half an hour, and they got instructions like "don't worry about me, go do your business".

The young master said so, so it's not easy for the servant to continue asking.
