Ome Quartet of Snow Country

Chapter 259 Couples
The sun was setting, igniting the sky and clouds, and the daylight hours were running out.

The orange light sprinkled on the earth, reflecting the last brilliance before sunset.

County Jin Gao, auxiliary building.

In the huge department room, there were only two figures sitting opposite each other.

It was quiet, and no one cared about the magazines spread out on the table.

"You lied to me."

Hai Xing looked at Naruse blankly, "Dating or something..."

"We've been dating for almost a week," he continued.

"You really are lying to me!"

If she had been dating for so long, it was impossible for her not to see anything.

Because... the appearance of the two of them is no different from usual...

Her reaction was not unexpected, Naruse still took a deep breath.

"It's fine if Hai Xing doesn't believe it, anyway, I've already told you. You can also ask Shangzi...or Mori."

"..."

Yiye also knows?
Why is she the only one who doesn't know anything...

Before she even realized it, she had already believed most of it.

She looked at him, speechless, and the circles of her eyes were getting redder and redder.

And being stared at by her, Naruse couldn't really calm down.

"Is it hard to understand? I like Shangzi. Didn't Haixing already know about it?"

"..."

Starfish pursed her lips tightly.

He continued: "Shangzi has always liked me, so..."

"——Then why are you dating suddenly now?" She said suddenly.

"Because Shangzi was assigned to Class C, I was assigned to Class A."

Naruse said, paused.

"...Moreover, Starfish has been too close to me recently, I don't want Shangzi to feel uneasy."

"..."

There was a beep in Haixing's mind, followed by a whirlwind.

Was it because of her approach that he chose to associate with Shangzi?
Obviously she just wanted him to plan a clear and definite future for herself.

... No, no one can be fooled by such words, let alone oneself.

Did he still see it?

Or she herself was too relaxed, and she didn't even try to hide it...especially after the intimate contact that night in Tokyo.

She thought that he would at least be interested in her body;
She thought that he would acquiesce in her constant approaching as before;
She thought that although the relationship between the two had "restarted", he still reserved a place for her in a certain corner of his heart...

And now, his response is to formally start a relationship with Shangzi.

"..."

After holding back for a long time, my eyes still became blurred.

Always, always...

Get close to her without authorization, and when she wants to get close to him, stay away without authorization.

She was always chasing, but never really catching up to him.

"..."

Starfish sniffled, and two lines rolled down from the fundus of his eyes, dripping on the back of his hand.

The tears made her tremble all over.

When she recovered, she wiped it on her face.

"Really, I see."

Naruse looked at her silently, and it took a while before he spoke.

"Do what Haixing wants to do, stay with me... There is no result in the repair department. Leave me alone."

"..."

He almost made it clear.

But she would rather that he speak more directly, and simply tear away all her cover, without leaving any face, completely embarrassing her, so that she has no way out... In this way, she will no longer embrace the impossible The hope, continue to delusional.

But thinking of this, she suddenly realized that they had already experienced this kind of irreversible situation.

After going around and around, she circled back to the original place and fell into the same mud.

And all of this, he could see clearly.

What a shame...

"...Do you think I'm annoying, like a fly, even if I drive it away, it will still fly back and continue to harass you."

Naruse pursed his lower lip.

"I never thought about it that way...the starfish just came to the wrong place."

"Then where should I go?"

"I do not know."

"I... woo... I don't know either." She sniffed sharply.

Naruse turned his head and looked out the window, waiting for her to dry her tears before asking:

"Does Starfish still want to continue working as a makeup artist?"

"..."

She opened her mouth, and suddenly understood the possible meaning that Yiye raised a few days ago.

It turned out that Yiye really knew it a long time ago.

She also understood his intention of insisting that she make her own decision.

"I will not give up."

Naruse closed his eyes and let out a slow breath.

"That's good."

Hai Xing looked at his profile, "If what I said just now is that I don't want to continue, what would you do?"

He looked over.

"I say a lot of nasty things."

Hai Xing laughed with tears, "You never said anything nice."

Naruse smiled too, but only briefly.

"Can't I stay here?" she asked again.

He took a breath, "I already said..."

"I'm just here to stay, do nothing, and won't bother you. When I find a place I want to go, I'll leave by myself."

Naruse looked at her, said nothing, and looked down at the meeting minutes on the table, acquiescing.

And even though he stopped looking at her, Hai Xing still squeezed out a smile, then picked up her things, and sat in a corner away from him.

During the whole process, Naruse just slightly raised his head.

In the following time, he continued to flip through the minutes of the meeting, inefficiently sorting out his speech at the club exhibition next week;

Hai Xing lay on the table, flipping through fashion magazines occasionally, and there was no more conversation between the two of them.

The room became silent again.

The one who finally broke the silence was Shangzi from the handicraft club.

"so tired……"

Naruse raised his head, looked at his girlfriend who appeared at the door, "Thank you."

"However, I have finally finished all the things to be done. Next week's club exhibition, the handicraft club will definitely make everyone's eyes shine."

"Is it so powerful?"

"really."

Shangzi only saw him, walked into the department room, walked around the seat, just as she opened her arms to him, she suddenly noticed that there was still a person lying on his stomach in the corner.

With her trademark blond hair, she would have been hard not to recognize her.

"……starfish."

Hai Xing looked up at her, "Shang Zi."

She lowered her arms, but Naruse seemed not to know that there was someone else in the room, stretched out his hand, put his arms around her waist, and then hugged her whole body into his arms.

Burying his face in her chest, he hugged her waist tightly and took a deep breath.

"……Thanks for your hard work."

"Chunhai..."

Shangzi looked at him, and then at the girl in the corner who pursed her lips, "Starfish..."

"It doesn't matter." He buried his face, "I have already told Haixing about our relationship."

"..."

Shangzi was still a little shy, but slowly raised her hanging arms, embraced his head, and responded to his hug.

When they started dating, she didn't think about hiding it from anyone, nor did she plan to make it public, and he also had the same attitude. As a result, after a week, it seemed that only Yiye knew about it.

Are they acting too much like a couple now?Or was it too much like a couple before, so the intimacy now can't make people care too much?
Such a question only floated in her mind for a moment before sinking down.

All she cares about is him, it was like this before, and even more so now.

His confession had been several days ago, and she still felt dizzy and unreal.

Holding him tightly to his chest, truly feeling his temperature, and the touch of his palms hugging his back, Shangzi told himself in his heart:
She really had him now.

"night……"

"It's still the same as before, let's go out to eat. I've already found a good place."

"Eh……"

"I have a restaurant reservation."

He let go a little, and exerted a little force on his hand, and she sat on his lap.

"After all, this is the first date between Shangzi and I after dating."

"..."

She couldn't restrain the joy in her heart, and let it flow on her face, "Yes."

Sitting on his lap, in order to maintain her own balance, she naturally hugged his neck.

The four eyes met, and the affection flowed.

His hands fell on her face, and then through the long hair, he gently held her head forward and approached her.

"..."

Shangzi opened his eyes slightly, then looked at Haixing again, before he could say anything, he kissed his lips.

"Well……"

From the corner of my eye, the bystanders in the corner finally looked away.

Shangzi looked over and stared at her side face, suddenly wishing that she could look directly at her side.

The hand that was still resting on her waist moved suddenly, and her lips were lightly bitten, turning her attention back to her boyfriend.

"..."

Apologizing to him with his eyes, Shangzi closed his eyes, ended the brief distraction, and responded to him.

"Well……"

The two pursued each other selflessly.

When it stopped again, it was already a few minutes later.

"what……"

Shangzi's face was flushed, and he lay weakly on top of him, with his head resting on his shoulder, breathing heavily.

Naruse stroked her back lightly, feeling her heartbeat as intense as his own.

"Let's go."

"Um……"

She responded, but she didn't have any strength, she was still lying on his shoulder.

Naruse looked at the corner of the eye room again, the back door was ajar, and the starfish had disappeared.

"..."

Shangzi was resting, and suddenly felt that he hugged him tighter.

"I like Shangzi."

"Well... I like Chunhai too."
