Ome Quartet of Snow Country

Chapter 500
On the morning of leaving Tokyo, the alarm clock didn't ring, and Haixing woke up early by himself.

The curtains were drawn and the room was dark.

After staring at the ceiling in a daze for a while, his consciousness gradually became clear.She looked at the pillow. Most of Song Qianqiu's face was buried in the pillow, and her long hair fell down, covering the rest of her face.

She didn't come back until midnight last night. She had been working particularly hard recently.They'd been here for a week, and she couldn't spare much time to spend with them.

"Well--"

Straightening his legs, Haixing carefully stretched his body that had slept all night so as not to wake up the people next to him.

Tensing and relaxing, she looked at the time, it was only after six o'clock.

They will leave Tokyo and return to Aomori today, but they won't get up so early.

At least before going to bed last night, Guang said he would sleep until eight in the morning.

He looked away from the alarm clock, turned his eyes around the bedside, and then landed on the photo frame next to him.

can not see clearly……

Starfish carefully stretched out his hand and brought the photo frame in front of him, then retracted his arm and looked at it quietly.

"..."

She couldn't help smiling.

This was a group photo they took on the lawn of Yoyogi Park the day before they left when they came to Tokyo last time. At that time, she didn't even know that he had developed the photo.

I always do this kind of thing quietly...

Starfish looked at the only boy in the photo, tracing every inch of his silhouette with her eyes.

I can go back and see him today.

She felt that she should be happy. Looking at her heart, she could not feel too much joy.

On top of the joy, there is also a faint layer of sadness.

She was in a daze, and her waist was suddenly hugged tightly.

"what……"

Immediately afterwards, a soft and warm body came up from behind, hugging her and wrapping her in his arms.

"Baby... why did you wake up so early?"

"I woke up..."

"It's still very early." Song Qianqiu murmured, seeming to be still half asleep, hugging her tightly, and then there was no movement.

Just when Haixing thought she fell asleep again, she suddenly said: "Is Haixing looking at Harumi?"

"..."

Her face suddenly felt hot.

"No...just looking around."

Song Qianqiu smiled, buried his face in her blond hair, rubbed her hair, and breathed in her scent deeply.

"Haixing is going back today."

"Um……"

"Mom is really reluctant to let go."

"..."

She put her hand on her arm, curled up a little more, and pressed close to her, "I can't bear to let him go either."

Song Qianqiu showed a little smile, and most of his sleepiness was gone.

And as soon as she regained consciousness, she couldn't help but think about it more.

A week passed, and she almost kept busy at work, and there was no progress in the things she wanted to ask clearly.

"Haixing likes Harumi, right?"

"what……"

Starfish made a little sound and shrank.

"It doesn't matter. Liking is a feeling, and it's something you can't control."

Song Qianqiu sighed softly, "But if you take action, you have to take responsibility."

Haixing didn't quite understand what she meant. He didn't know whether she was encouraging him to be braver or just sending out some useless emotions.

"Harunami chose Naoko himself. Even I can't help Haixing."

"Um……"

"But Starfish doesn't seem to have given up yet."

"……Um."

Song Qianqiu lowered his eyes and looked at her blond hair, "Do you have any other plans?"

"Eh...no."

Even Haixing knew that what Morimi said to her must not be told to anyone else, especially his mother.

"I just...can't help but like him."

Saying this with a blushing face, Haixing closed his eyes tightly, trying to make himself faint.

Song Qianqiu sighed again and hugged her tightly, feeling even more distressed.

"If there was a way to cut Harunami into two people, my mother would definitely give one to Haixing."

"Hmm..." Haixing made a vague sound, not knowing how to answer this sentence.

"But...even if we can really divide Harumi into two, it doesn't seem to be enough now."

Starfish was startled.Song Qianqiu let go of her, moved back, and turned her around to face him.

"Haixing and Kazuye are very familiar with each other, right? I'm talking about the level of understanding each other that goes beyond ordinary friendship."

"Well... Kazuye takes good care of me."

Haixing could almost guess what she wanted to say, so when Matsu Qianqiu said "Kazuyo also likes Harumi", she felt quite calm in her heart.

"right."

"Then what is Harumi's usual attitude towards Kazuha?"

"What about your attitude? Sometimes it's very close, sometimes it's very cold. Sometimes it's even like an enemy... just like to me." Haixing couldn't help but say one more thing.

Song Qianqiu couldn't help but glance at her.

She suddenly had a feeling that if she kept asking more carefully, she might not have to go to work today - she was completely out of work state and mood.

But she still couldn't help but ask: "Did anything else happen between Chunhai and Haixing after she returned to the countryside?"

"..."

Starfish fell silent, but his face gradually turned red, but it quickly faded away.

Looking at her reaction, Song Qianqiu could almost guess the general situation.

When couples look back on the past, they always think of the happy parts first - even if the relationship hasn't reached that level yet.

They were attracted to each other, got close to each other, and even became intimate, but because of Naoko or other factors, he still pushed her away.

"That brat..."

The actual situation was far more complicated than what his son confessed. Song Qianqiu took a breath and felt a headache growing more and more.

The situation on Haixing's side is still like this, but with Mori Jian, there may be many hidden secrets hidden from her.

She thought again of what she had smelled on him that morning.

Seeing her frown getting deeper and deeper, Haixing didn't know what to do.

"starfish……"

"what."

Matsu Qianqiu was silent for another half minute before speaking: "After Chunhai dated Naoko, he didn't say anything about having a private relationship with you, right?"

"how could it be possible……"

Haixing's mouth dropped, almost crying.

It was kind of him not to let her stay away.

"Ah." Song Qianqiu quickly comforted her, feeling a little more relaxed in her heart.

It seems that although the situation between the several children is a bit chaotic, it has not reached the point of breaking through the bottom line.

Therefore, when several girls stayed together, Harukai would always show that headache expression inadvertently.

Song Qianqiu felt that he understood his dilemma more deeply.

What's even more embarrassing is that in this situation, there is almost nothing she can do. If she is not careful, it will be the same as when she treated Kazuye before.

"..."

Staring at the ceiling, Song Qianqiu didn't feel sleepy anymore until the alarm clock rang.

Drop drop drop-

Seeing Haixing sleeping again and being awakened by the alarm clock, she felt infinite love in her heart and pulled her into her arms for a while.

"Get up."

"Um……"

The other three girls were already up, and Takikawa Yue had even prepared breakfast.

"Good morning, Miss Song."

"Good morning."

Ms. Sato also yawned and got up, changing her clothes for going out.

After breakfast, it was time to leave.

Several people dragged their luggage downstairs, and Song Qianqiu followed them down to the underground garage.

"I won't take you to the station."

"Miss Matsu, just send it here." Takigawa Hikaru said.

"Xiaoyue can actually stay a few more days." Matsu Chiaki said to Takigawa Yue, who only started school in September.

"About a week."

Of course Takigawa Yue was reluctant to leave, but she was still a little embarrassed to leave her here alone.

Matsu Qianqiu didn't say much and hugged several children goodbye. Morimi was last in line.

"One leaf..."

She had a lot to ask and apologize to, but she didn't know how to speak.

"See you at the end of the year, Miss Matsu." Morimi hugged her and then just looked at her.

Song Qianqiu didn't say anything until the end, just like when he hugged Haixing, he patted her back and let go.

Several people got into the car, and the assistant lady stuck her head out to look at her, and then nodded.

"We're off."

"Well, be careful on the road."
