Give weak women a heart of steel

Chapter 288 Don’t make them sad.

"It's raining now, so the hot springs are closed. But you two can take a bath in the bathroom, and there is still hot water."

The waitress came over and handed the other umbrella to the girl.

But the girl didn't answer, just shook her head.

I just walked silently in the rain and slowly walked into Xicui Village.

His steps were full of heaviness.

"Miss, are you okay?"

The waitress asked worriedly.

"Maybe it's because she likes the rain."

Xia Tingfei was perfunctory, leaving the waitress to tilt her head in confusion.

After entering Xicui Village, the maid took out two more bathrobes so that Xia Tingfei and the girl could go directly to the bathroom without going back to the room.

The heat made the person who had just been out in the rain feel extra warm. He couldn't wait to take a bath and walked into the bathtub.

There is no one here now, only Xia Tingfei himself.

Leaning on the edge of the bath, he thought about everything today.

"Legend has it that when you step onto the Naihe Bridge, you will drink a bowl of Mengpo soup to forget your memories."

"She seems to have drank the Meng Po soup now."

He leaned on the tiles of the bathtub, feeling a little sad for no reason.

Probably because I have no choice.

This girl is really helpless.

——Although she is rushing towards death, she already has a heart of steel.

How determined and firm her will is.

——Maybe she just doesn’t need saving, all she needs is respect.

"Perhaps, this is also good."

Putting his palm on his forehead, he muttered.
-

There were still people in the female pool next door.

Ueno Naoko soaked in the pool, relaxing and comfortable.

She was a little uncomfortable taking a bath with other people, so she always took a bath at the end.

Sadly, the same goes for tidal algae debris.

Two girls were sitting on one side of the pool and the other on that side.

They are far apart, as if the relationship between the two has not improved yet.

"Why are you so late every day?"

Naoko Ueno was lying on the edge of the bathtub, looking at the tide algae debris in the opposite corner.

As the steam filled the air, Ueno Naoko's embarrassment also disappeared a little.

Hai Tide Algae hesitated for a moment, then told the truth.

After all, he would definitely be discovered in the dormitory.

Even, Naoko Ueno needs a little help.

"Because I'm writing something."

"Oh." Naoko Ueno said without interest.

She was somewhat uninterested in these things.

He just said boringly: "I didn't expect that you would become a nerd just like Liuli."

"It's not a study." She said as the tide and algae flakes slapped the water, "It's a love letter."

She doesn't have any shyness. As long as she decides something, she will try her best to complete it.

"Huh?" Naoko Ueno's eyes widened: "Love letter! Whose is it?"

"Ah, I am a fool. It must be written to Xia Tingfei, right?"

She slapped her forehead.

He asked very curiously: "Doesn't he know yet? It's so obvious to you. Isn't he that kind of herbivorous man?"

Naoko Ueno overturned her conclusion again: "With Kana Hinazuki as his girlfriend, he shouldn't be considered a herbivore."

She muttered, looking at the seaweed chips curiously.

"Because that's what Kana-san is like." Haishio Zaochan said: "In the past, Hinatsuki-san's treatment was similar to mine, but after she wrote the love letter, everything changed."

"So, that's what I want to do too."

"Ah, I said Liuli should come." Naoko Ueno complained: "If Liuli comes, we can take a step faster."

Hai Chao Zao Zuo was a little unconvinced: "Even if Nishinomiya Liuli comes, I should be the one who discovers this method faster."

"Yes, that's right." Naoko Ueno tilted her head: "But Liuli can definitely write faster than you."

Haichaozaoxi was immediately dejected.

That's right, if Nishimiya Ruri came, he would definitely not be in such a mess as he is.

She patted the water surface dissatisfied, causing waves of water splashes.

Let Ueno Naoko shout: "Don't do this, Umi!"

click-

The door was pushed open, and the girl with light blond hair walked into the bathroom.

The two people who were still fighting suddenly stopped.

Naoko Ueno looked at Aoi Tsukimura.

Her relationship with Tsukimura Aoi was not a good one, but it was definitely not a bad one either.

More like a familiar stranger.

Under normal circumstances, Naoko Ueno would definitely say hello.

But she is a girl who is very good at reading the air and can feel the low atmosphere on girls.

She was silent, and so was the tide.

She had long known that she was not a girl who could read the air.

Therefore, following Naoko Ueno is the most correct thing to do.

Tsukimura Aoi ignored the two people and just stood naked under the shower.

The water splashed on the girl's smooth back and fell on the tiles.

She stepped on the smooth tiles with her bare feet and closed her eyes.

Perhaps, it is disappointment.

Perhaps, it is taken for granted.

"Why did you reach the finish line so quickly?"

When the girl opened her eyes again, her skin was already pink from the hot water.

Stroll down to the bath.

Tsukimura Aoi sat quietly on the edge of the bath.

"Aoi-chan~"

Naoko Ueno shouted kindly, because the girl made the atmosphere very awkward.

She wanted to lighten the mood.

——Mostly it’s instinct, probably because she’s always been like this.

The girl opened her eyes and said indifferently: "I - am already 22 years old."

"Huh?" Naoko Ueno was shocked.

"22?" She looked at the girl's appearance.

This is obviously just a girl similar to myself!

"Really?" she asked in disbelief.

But the girl didn't answer, she just soaked in silence. The light golden hair was soaked with water and stuck to her shoulders and back. Naoko Ueno reluctantly stayed for a while, and finally couldn't bear the embarrassment, so she got up and left.

The tide algae soaked in the pool fearlessly and stared at the girl.

"22 years old? Looking like this?"

"so envious."

I envy the girl who can maintain such good performance.

Looking at her reflection on the water, she was most afraid of what she would look like after aging.

I don't even want to think about it.

But this timid thought was finally broken by the girl.

Hai Tide Algae was a little hesitant about what to call the girl, but finally decided.

——It’s better not to call him by name.

"Hello." Hai Chao Algae slowly walked to the girl's side.

But the girl's indifference made her a little overwhelmed.

But after a lot of effort, she finally asked: "How do you maintain such good performance? You look like a high school student."

"Are you curious?" The girl opened her eyes and looked at the seaweed in front of her.

"Yeah." Hai Chao Algae nodded firmly.

"As long as you're dying."

It was like telling a cold joke, which made Hai Tide Algae a little angry.

Naoko Ueno walked out in a loose yukata and walked to the lobby, ready to buy a bottle of drink.

Xia Tingfei was also sitting on the bench next to him, drinking a bottle of blueberry milk.

Naoko Ueno walked over, looked at Xia Tingfei's things, and couldn't help but joke: "Blueberry milk? It's really a girl's choice."

"What's the matter?"

"I just couldn't stand the awkward atmosphere in the bathroom, so I ran out." Naoko Ueno waved her hand as if to dispel the bad luck.

"It's Aoi Tsukimura. I just came back from outside with her."

"Such a heavy rain?" Naoko Ueno sat at the other end of the bench, looking at the heavy rain outside the door.

Xia Tingfei was too lazy to answer, and just sucked the strawberry milk.

"Is she really 22 years old?" Naoko Ueno hesitated for a while before asking this question.

"Yes, she is 22 years old." Xia Tingfei nodded: "She still has a driver's license in her hand. If you look carefully, you can find it."

But Naoko Ueno waved her hand in disgust: "How can I go rummaging through other people's clothes?"

Xia Tingfei had no choice but to spread his hands.

The girl stretched out her hands and kicked her legs vigorously: "I'm so envious that she still has such beauty at the age of 22."

"This kind of thing may be really good, but she has a terminal disease, and she only has four days before she meets her fate."

"There's nothing to envy, it's just an equal exchange."

But the girl was not very happy with Xia Tingfei's reaction. "If you can keep me young forever, I will even shorten my life span by ten years!"

Xia Tingfei laughed straight away: "This is not something that can be done in ten years of life."

Naoko Ueno just waved her hand, not wanting to discuss this issue with Xia Tingfei.

How could a male voice understand my own thoughts!

She drank vegetable juice angrily and listened to the rain falling outside the door.

The lead-like black hair has been blown dry to the extreme, and it hangs on her shoulders like silk.

The girl's face was full of boredom.

"Perhaps, every day you are experiencing now is an adventure that is difficult to encounter for others." Xia Tingfei said.

"Hey, isn't this what the teacher said?" The girl was a little impatient: "How can I be an adventure in my life now?"

She complained: "I stay on campus every day and have classes. Only after school and after class can I have some time to have fun. It's really terrible."

"The canteen in the school only has these few things that can be used as lunch every day, and there are not many other interesting things."

"Even Liuli! He turned into a nerd. It's so boring."

Raise your hands high and open your palms.

I looked at the ceiling through the gaps between my fingers, but I still found it boring.

He lowered his palm to the door and looked at the rain curtain through his fingers: "If I grow up, I will definitely travel around and eat all kinds of delicious food. Going to all places is a good time for fun. Make a lot of friends. friend."

"Why do you need to make so many friends?"

"What a stupid question." Naoko Ueno said dissatisfiedly to Xia Tingfei: "Only if you make a lot of friends, you won't be bored."

"When it's my birthday, there will be so many friends coming to celebrate me that they can fill any room."

The girl said this and fell into fantasy again.

"Fool, you will be like this when you grow up. All kinds of pressure will come to you. Only then will you realize that all your childhood dreams and all your childhood wishes are so worthless. Even being laughed at. Its cheap

"On the long train, the social beasts holding on to the armrests are shaking, and the social beasts sitting on the chairs with their heads hanging down as if they are drowsy, all have wishes and dreams similar to yours."

"In fact, their dreams are more delicate and grander than yours."

Xia Tingfei looked at the girl and said, "Perhaps, our daily life is a series of miracles."

"whispering sound."

The girl just relied on her childhood courage and laughed at Xia Tingfei's old-fashionedness.

The rain continued outside the door, and the water column flowing in the patio condensed into lines.

The planted dwarf pines and cypresses are swaying, and various decorative plants and trees have their heads lowered.

Only the rockery turned the splashing water droplets into something like mist.

For a moment, it turned out to be a bit hazy.

A small pool of water accumulated under the patio.

The chaotic chirping of insects seemed to have disappeared, making the summer rainy night a little quieter and monotonous.

Maybe the girl also noticed: "Has Hinyue really written a love letter to you?"

"Well, that's right."

"Eh, I really didn't expect that." The girl tutted: "To be honest, I really didn't notice what kind of charm you have."

"You may not know, but Hinsuki is very popular in school."

"I know she is very popular." Xia Tingfei said, "She is also called a snow elf."

"That's right, snow elf!" Naoko Ueno opened her arms and said exaggeratedly: "A girl like her should have a shoe cabinet filled with love letters."

"I have never had such an experience, but Hinyue goes home with you every day, and even goes to your club every day except for class."

"Everyone assumes that you are a couple, so no one writes love letters."

"However, there are still many people trying to strike up a conversation and looking for our girls to indirectly invite Hinazuki Kana." Naoko Ueno said, "However, she has not agreed even once, and she has not even met those boys."

"This is very rare." Naoko Ueno clicked her tongue: "I really don't know how you did it."

"Are you childhood sweethearts?"

"No, just a stranger I met by chance." Xia Tingfei replied.

"This is still really hard to understand." Naoko Ueno sighed: "I feel now that Liuli may really have no chance."

"And the tide, too."

The girl said this, and then said seriously to Xia Tingfei: "If you can't make a promise to Liuli and Haichao, just leave them as soon as possible."

"This may also allow them to suffer less harm."

"You know, Hai Chao is writing a love letter to you now."

"I hope you don't make the tide algae too sad."

She is extremely serious.

"It turns out that this is your purpose." Xia Tingfei looked at the black-haired girl.
