Give weak women a heart of steel

Chapter 322 Today, we will die together

"You don't actually need to ask this kind of question, you just know it."

Hinazuki Kana looked ahead and spoke slowly.

She drove slowly, the evening wind blowing by.

The girls' fluttering hair was blown up and swayed uncontrollably.

Xia Tingkui hesitated for a while, then she said: "I'm sorry."

"What's there to be sorry for about this kind of thing?" The girl was a little confused, but she didn't ask any more questions.

"But, I feel guilty."

Xia Tingkui said this in a low voice.

Hinazuki Kana did not argue with Xia Tingkui who was so strange.

I just asked: "Do you want to eat later? Where do you want to eat dinner?"

"Aren't you going back?"

"Because Ichinose Kiyuki has a problem, Tobi will be with her tonight." Hinazuki Kana slightly moved her flaxen hair.

Her hair is now so thick that it can be braided into a loose braid and hang down on her collarbone.

However, she didn't do this.

She just wrapped a ribbon around her temples and stroked it like this.

"So, it's just us tonight. Of course, there's also the tide." Hinyue smiled slightly: "Today, she paid."

Xia Tingkui pursed her lips and hesitated before asking the question: "Do you mind?"

"What do you mind?"

Hinazuki Kana feels that Xia Tingkui is a little strange today.

"Perhaps, she shouldn't have been allowed to be with Qujian Ai today."

Thinking like this, Hinazuki Kana took the time to look at the girl again.

I also feel that the decision Xia Tingfei made today is considered a good one.

——Because Xia Tingkui's expression is not as gloomy as before.

If before it was like a plant, today it is like a human being.

"Although, there are more questions. And they are still weird questions."

Hinazuki Kana waited for a long time, but did not get Xia Tingkui's answer.

By the time Hinazuki Kana arrived, she almost felt that this topic was already in the past.

Xia Tingkui said: "What if something happened? After all, it was Ichinose Qingyue."

"She looks very mature."

Ichinose Qingyue is the most mature among the girls.

Whether it's clothing or makeup.

They all have a mature flavor.

Other girls can't escape the youthful and immature little girl flavor.

"Ha." Hinazuki Kana couldn't help laughing: "How can such a thing be possible?"

"Besides, even if something happens, what can we do?"

These words left Xia Tingkui speechless and had no reason to say too many things.

So she could only choose silence, constant silence.

"It would be fine if nothing happened."

She pursed her lips and bit her teeth tightly.

As for Ichinose Qingyue and Xia Tingfei, each of them just held a fast food box.

It's just fried chicken nuggets drizzled with blueberry powder.

These are dinner for two.

If that's not enough, you can continue ordering at the counter not far away.

This is not because Xia Tingfei is stingy or anything like that.

But because of Ichinose Kiyuki herself.

——This is what she demands.

The two people were sitting next to the display window. Through the display window with large advertising slogans, Ichinose Qingyue looked at the passers-by outside.

Her eyes were dim, as if she was watching.

But if you look closely, you can see that she is not looking at anything, she is just in a daze.

She didn't speak, and Xia Tingfei didn't speak either.

It's not that I don't have the desire to speak, it's just that I don't know what to say.

I just don't understand how to do it.

Only then can the girl herself return to normal.

So, this dinner became extremely silent.

It's like they are strangers, like they don't know each other.

——Even stranger than a stranger.

Even strangers will deliberately find some topics to talk about when sharing a table.

Use this to relieve the embarrassment.

However, the two people seemed to have no such intention at all.

The girl thought there was nothing wrong with this, so she dressed up in that white dress and red thin coat.

If she was wearing a beret, she would look very similar to a girl in Xia Tingfei's memory.

With her pink lips pursed in a habit, she slowly drank the sweet and sour ice cola.

Occasionally, you can still hear the slight impact of ice cubes.

Clattering.

So that there won't be complete silence between the two people.

After a long time, Xia Tingfei said: "Is it because of love between the songs?"

He thought over and over again, and the only reason why the girl became like this was Qujian Ai.

But there’s nothing wrong with what he loved to say between the tunes at the bar.

Moreover, it was just a glance at Ichinose Qingyue.

"Is it because of her? That's why you are the one who knows how to-"

Even though Xia Tingfei didn't say his last words, the girl could guess what Xia Tingfei wanted next.

"No."

Ichinose Qingyue denied it simply and neatly. She said in a low voice: "That's not the case."

"Hers didn't do anything to me."

"But your hands were shaking before!" Xia Tingfei's words were a bit sharp.

"It's just because of myself." She said: "Before I met Qujian Ai, I thought I would live forever."

She said in a low voice: "To be honest, it's true. I think I will definitely continue to live that way. I go to school during the day and work as a bartender in a coffee shop for a period of time after school."

"This kind of life is really good. Even if I continue to live like this, I will not be dissatisfied."

"Even more, I need to be grateful to you for giving me this kind of job."

"Thank you."

The girl thanked her seriously.

This made Xia Tingfei's throat hoarse. He understood that the more determined the girl said now, the more decisive the turn would be.

"Then why is this still happening?"

Xia Tingfei still asked this question.

Ichinose Qingyue said with a melancholy tone: "Because, I suddenly discovered."

"This kind of life is not what I pursue."

She gave a seemingly ridiculous reason, but Xia Tingfei didn't laugh.

If it were just a realistic reason, I would have ten thousand ways to solve it.

But if it involves the girl's own mental problems, then he is helpless.

"While watching Ai Qujian, I suddenly discovered. - Even though the store manager was wanted by the security guards, and even though there were wanted notices of her everywhere, she didn't take it seriously." "She still did it. Doing the same thing, doing the same thing as before.”

"If it is the strongest diamond, it shines brightly."

When she said this, the girl couldn't help but lower her head.

"When I saw her, I suddenly thought of myself."

"What about me, have I changed from before?"

She murmured to herself.

"Yes, of course there are changes!"

Xia Tingfei said categorically in a sonorous tone: "Of course you have changed. You were the person you were before. In society, there is no place for you at all. What were you doing before? It was just thinking about this kind of thing."

"But, now. You have a good and not tiring job, and you have enough salary at your disposal every month. No matter what you do, no one will stop you."

"You can even save the money to travel during the summer vacation."

"Beside you are your close friends."

"They are your family, even your good sisters. And the cafe is your home."

"Isn't this a good change?"

Xia Tingfei looked at Ichinose Qingyue.

It would be great if Ichinose could be changed so easily.

It would be great if Ichinose Kiyuki could suddenly realize something like Ikkyu after hearing this.

But this is reality after all. She, Ichinose Kiyosuki, is not Ikkyu, but a girl.

Even though she looks mature on the outside, she is still a sensitive girl on the inside.

Ichinose Qingyue's back seemed to be crushed by a heavy object. She covered her face and slowly bent over.

When she rested her forehead on the table, she said uncomfortably and lowly: "That's it, that's it."

Her voice seemed to be trembling.

Weakness and timidity floated out of her words.

"——These are just changes in the environment."

She was almost sobbing softly: "I haven't changed at all - in fact, I am worse than before."

The girl said so sadly, she was crying.

"I finally realized it. I finally understood why Ichinose Kiyuki was here."

"——Everything is my fault."

"In the beginning, the mainstay in her heart was the Friendship and Mutual Aid Club. It enriched her soul and prevented her heart from collapsing in the difficult external environment."

"Here, let her have a clear and shining goal."

"She is trying her best to move towards her goal, and she is trying her best to move towards this goal that is not the right one."

"Maybe she was the happiest at that time. Maybe she was the most fulfilling at that time."

"And this kind of happy thing all changed after meeting me."

"It was me who destroyed the only pillar of strength in her heart, and it was me who made her heart wander."

"It's me again. I only gave her a false support."

"I thought that with work, her friends, and even the gradually improving surrounding environment, I could gather a pillar of support in her heart and a heart of steel."

"But, that's not the case."

"She was lost in the undercurrent and completely lost her life goal."

"The pillar that is barely condensed is just a false pillar."

"It's like self-paralysis, like a piece of paper."

"Her false pillars collapsed under Qu Jianai's casual glance."

Xia Tingfei felt annoyed and resentful in his heart.

But it’s not Qujian Ai that’s annoying, and it’s not Qujian’s love that’s hated.

What he was upset about was himself, and what he hated was himself.

"It's me. After destroying the girl's pillar, I didn't give her a new pillar. It's me. It's completely my fault."

Xia Tingfei took a deep breath.

"It won't work if you just blame Qujian Ai. This is just escaping and not admitting your mistakes."

"Although Qujian Ai is a arrogant woman, it is this kind of enchanting and arrogant woman who has a firm belief."

"I think so, maybe that's why. The light of confidence she exudes is the pillar that will pierce Ichinose Kiyuki's heart."

"So, Ichinose Kiyuki is the one who suddenly became like this."

Xia Tingfei smiled bitterly.

"In fact, I still want to thank Ai Quma. Thank her for exposing Ichinose Kiyuki's hidden dangers in advance, if it had been delayed even longer."

"Maybe she will collapse even more completely."

Xia Tingfei ate faster. After finishing the fried chicken pieces, he held the Coke cup and drank all the Coke in one go.

Even if it was ice cubes, he poured them into his mouth and crunched them.

"?"

The girl was a little confused and confused.

"I'll take you somewhere."

Xia Tingfei stretched out his hand.

The girl doubtfully put her delicate palm into Xia Tingfei's palm.

"Attention, we are about to run."

Xia Tingfei said this and kicked the girl's stool away.

"This guest——!"

The waiter shouted.

But Xia Tingfei dragged the girl and started running. The girl's high heels clicked on the asphalt road, stumbling.

They ran in the darkness, under the streetlights that provided a ray of light.

Running in the clouds and mist.

The girl felt that her body was as heavy as a machine, and soon she was dressed roughly.

However, she didn't stop.

Instead, he ran hard with the help of Xia Tingfei.

Sweat soaked her temples, and her long hair fluttered like a flag.

The final destination is an extremely desolate small station.

Next to the station, there is an old vending machine, covered with weeds and even scratched.

This station only has one bench and a small block.

The railway tracks are like the backbone of a giant beast, sleeping quietly among the gravel and weeds.

The rust on it gives it a desolate look.

Xia Tingfei and the girl stood at the edge of the platform. The girl asked in confusion: "Are there any trams here?"

"Probably not." Xia Tingfei answered lightly.

He ignored the girl's confused face and said calmly: "Do you still remember the question we had?"

"If, if I fall down behind me now, you will hold me back." The girl said.

"That's right." Xia Tingfei said with a smile, "If you had asked me, I would have made a different choice."

He said this: "Close your eyes, girl."

"We will die together today."

Xia Tingfei said this, putting his hands on the girl's shoulders.

Very hard.

The moment the girl closed her eyes, she felt as if she was being dragged into the abyss.

She is falling.

From the platform.
