Ome Quartet of Snow Country

Chapter 263: Withdrawal Response
Senjian came out of the shower, wiped his hair, and went upstairs to his room.

The starfish naturally followed suit.

Lying on the bed, she talked about what she saw and heard in the restoration department in the afternoon.

"...Later, Shangzi came over. Then...they suddenly started hugging and kissing."

Sen Jian was lying outside, turned his head and glanced at her, "In front of Hai Xing?"

"Well...he just wanted me to see it on purpose."

"I think so too."

Most of Hai Xing's face was buried in the pillow, and she rubbed it a few times, trying to erase the memory of that time, but the scene of the two hugging and kissing became more and more clear in her mind.

"It's too much..."

Mori was silent for a while, looking at the ceiling.

"But the person who stays there and doesn't leave is actually a starfish."

"..."

"And Shangzi is his real girlfriend now. Hugging, kissing...it's nothing more than normal."

"..."

Starfish didn't speak for a long time.

Mori Jian turned his head and glanced, only to find that she was crying silently.

"Feel sorry……"

She sighed, turned around, and wiped the tears from her eyes with her hand.

"You're too good at crying...I mean, Hai Xing, don't make yourself sad anymore. If you don't see it or hear it, if you don't listen to it, you won't have so many troubles."

She sniffled, "How can it be so simple..."

Mori Jian withdrew his hand, "Haixing didn't try first, how would he know he couldn't do it?"

"We all live together, and we're still in the same school, how can we not see each other..."

"What I mean is that Haixing should not take the initiative to find him, reduce unnecessary communication, separate for a period of time, and survive the withdrawal reaction, and then he will gradually get used to life without him." Morimi said.

"What is a withdrawal reaction?" Starfish asked.

Mori thought about it.

"The urge to see him, to talk to him."

"Then I'm in a withdrawal reaction right now." Hai Xing murmured.

"..."

Morimi pursed her lower lip.

"Be patient."

"It's impossible for me to find him at this time." She whispered.

"Not just now, but also in the future."

Starfish didn't speak again.

Sen Jian looked at her for a while, "I turned off the light."

"Ah good."

pat.

She turned off the bedside lamp, and the room suddenly became dark.

The two lay down with their own thoughts in mind, and kept silent at the same time.

After an unknown amount of time, Hai Xing restrained her movements and slowly turned over.

"Can't sleep?" Senjian said suddenly.

"Ah... I thought Yiye had fallen asleep."

"Asleep, just woke up by you."

"……sorry."

"Don't take it seriously." Senjian smiled, and lay motionless for a long time. She couldn't lie still, and turned over to face inside again.

"I don't usually go to bed so early."

"Me too……"

"Playing with your phone?" she asked again.

"It's about the same... Recently, I was looking at some trendy photos on ins, flipping through them, and the time passed."

"Really..."

Sen Jian wanted to say that she was really free enough, so he didn't go on.

But Haixing recognized it, and explained: "Chunhai said to pay more attention to some trendy people, study their dress and makeup, and improve their aesthetics."

"So it is."

Going around, the topic came back to him, and Senjian coughed lightly, "Haixing can't sleep, just play with your phone, don't worry about me."

"Um……"

When Haixing touched the phone, the first thing he did was to adjust the brightness to the lowest level.

Seeing that she was all in front of the phone screen, Morimi grabbed her wrist and pulled it back.

"Your eyesight is worse than mine now."

"Hard to say……"

Hai Xing squinted her eyes, and moved her hand in front of her again to see the text on the phone clearly.

"If you continue like this, you will lose your eyesight."

"...Don't scare me."

Sen Jian looked at her for a while, knowing that he couldn't persuade her, so he didn't say much.

She rolled over again, facing outside.

"I'm going to sleep, Haixing should go to bed early too...Although I don't need to get up early tomorrow."

"Okok good night."

Mori closed his eyes, thought again, and spoke for the last time before falling asleep.

"When the weekend is over and next week, what is Starfish going to do?"

"do not know……"

"Will you continue to cling to him?"

"meeting."

She sighed.

"It's really helpless."

"..."

Starfish pursed her lower lip.

"Well, I'm hopeless."

Morimi closed his eyes and spoke softly.

"However, I will support Starfish."

"Eh……"

"Good night."

The next day, Saturday.

Naruse didn't get up until after nine o'clock in the morning, and accompanied Shangzi to the city, bought some things for club activities, and had lunch outside before getting ready to go home.

The bus going back turned around in the urban area, passing by near Tsumae Park.

Shangzi looked out of the car window.

"The cherry blossoms in Tsumae Castle are also slowly blooming. After a while, they should all be able to bloom."

"Well, after a while, let's come and enjoy the cherry blossoms."

"Hmm. But it has to be before the golden week comes... When the holiday comes, there will be too many people."

Naruse stretched, raised and lowered his arms, and wrapped her in his arms.

"Then let's come here before the Cherry Blossom Festival."

"Hmm." Shang Zi leaned forward.

Back home, the two sat on the sofa and watched TV, killing each other's time.

Shangzi chatted on the phone for a while, then suddenly leaned over and rubbed against his shoulder.

"I'm going to school tomorrow afternoon."

Naruse put down the book he was about to finish, "What are you going to do?"

"Go to the gym and help set up the equipment."

"'Devices'...how great is your handicraft club recruiting new recruits this time?"

"It's not too exaggerated."

"Then I will go with Shangzi."

"Okay."

After a while, Naruse also finished flipping through the book in his hand, folded his hands together, and stared blankly for a while.

"Have you finished watching?" the girlfriend asked.

"finish watching."

"How about it?"

"It's not bad, but the length is a little shorter. It would be great if the middle part of the adventure plot can be expanded and written more."

Shangzi smiled, "Do you want to read it again?"

She knew that he had the habit of rereading his favorite books several times.

"Well, but it shouldn't take long to watch the second time, at most it will be finished in the evening."

Putting down the book, Naruse stood up, "I'm going to the bookstore."

"Are you looking for Yiye?" Shangzi asked.

He leaned down and bit her neck lightly, "Go buy books."

"Well……"

Shangzi shrank his head, and he kissed her side of the face again.

"Shangzi, do you want to come together?"

She thought about it for a while, and quickly agreed, "Okay."

After tidying up her clothes, she went out with him.

And as soon as they came to Morimi Kohonen, both of them saw the motorcycle parked at the door.

"This is……"

"It's a car of light."

When I walked in, I found that not only Takikawa Hikari, but also Starfish was staying in Morimi's bookstore.

"..."

Seeing him, Hai Xing opened his eyes wide, turned around involuntarily, and immediately saw Shang Zi behind him.

After looking at each other for a moment, she looked away again.

"Chunhai, Shangzi."

Takikawa Hikari quickly saw the two of them and said hello, "Are you here to buy books?"

"Ah."

Naruse glanced at Morimi who was sitting at the counter, and then at her, "Why is the light here?"

"I was planning to go for a ride with Haixing, and then I found out that she is here to help."

"help?"

Hikaru Takikawa patted the bookshelf next to him, "These two rows of books were put on the shelves with the help of Starfish."

"yes."

He glanced at Haixing again, she was standing in front of another row of bookshelves with her back to them, and she also turned a deaf ear to their conversation.

"Just go for a drive by yourself." Sen Jian said suddenly.

"Hey, just talk about it for a while..."

Hai Xing also shook his head at this time, "I'm not going."

"Ok."

Hikari Takikawa looked at Naruse again.

"Then Chunhai wants to go out for a drive?"

"I'll let it go."

Naruse shook his head, and remembered another thing, "By the way, I have something to ask you."

She became curious, "What is it?"

"Things related to the motorcycle driver's license test."

"..."

She suddenly opened her eyes wide, "Does Chunhai finally want to learn motorcycles?"

"Hmm. Living in the country, it's too inconvenient to go to the city with only an hourly bus." Naruse said, "What I want to ask is the process of getting a motorcycle driver's license."

Hikaru Takikawa looked very happy, "Just ask, I'm familiar with it."

"How long did it take from signing up to getting a driver's license?" Naruse asked.

"my words……"

She suddenly noticed something that caught her attention.

Following her gaze, Naruse looked at his hand.

He and Shangzi held hands together.

"Shangzi and I have started dating," he said to her.

Hikaru Takikawa was stunned for a moment.

"yes."
