Even the whole world is trying to match us up

Chapter 158 I Hate Psychology (Happy Valentine’s Day)

When night begins to climb up into the sky, eating away at the remaining golden color on the horizon.

The mottled sun tried its best to take away the last soft light on the earth today.

The world will briefly turn into a quiet blue.

A cat gracefully shuttles between telephone poles.

A figure dripping with sweat is running towards this side.

Click.

The crisp sound of cameras sounded in the alleys of Meguro River.

The warm yellow street lights suddenly rose up like flames at the same time.

Some tired teenagers leaned on the telephone pole and looked down at their mobile phones.

"The playboy bullhead sent a picture to the explorer in bed."

"The big bullhead with big heart: How is it?"

"The big bullhead with a big heart: Is it beautiful?"

"The explorer in bed: Yeah."

Then another message popped up in the chat box.

"Explorer in bed: haven't you arrived home yet?"

The boy clearly didn't set a message vibration reminder, but his hands trembled.

Then, he typed a reply quickly.

"Fan-hearted bullhead: I just ran from Shinjuku to the Meguro River, and I'm almost there."

"Fan-hearted bullhead: Thank you for your concern."

"Explorers under the covers: Since members of the Natsume Club learned photography, their aesthetics seem to be getting better and better, and they all know how to capture blues moments."

"The Big Bullhead: Blues Moment? What is that? Doubt.JPG"

"Explorer in bed: I take back my preamble. You still have a long way to go before becoming a great photographer. Sea otter forehead.JPG"

"The explorer in bed withdrew a message"

"Fan-hearted bullhead: Stop, that's one of the few compliments I have. Crying bitterly.JPG"

"Explorer under the quilt: The blues moment refers to forty minutes before sunrise, to about fifteen minutes before sunrise, and from eighteen minutes to forty minutes after sunset, the sky gradually changes from warm to cold tones, slowly appearing Quiet blue."

"Fan-hearted bull head: Thank you very much for popular science. However, it was yours just now, now it's mine!"

"Explorer in bed: keep up the good work."

"The explorer under the covers: I want a great Natsume member in the future."

"Fan-hearted bullhead: Got it."

The chat ends.

Close the phone.

The white light dissipates.

The young man raised his eyes as if he wanted to rest his eyes.

The cat just now has long disappeared.

Really.

The sun tilted slightly to the west.

The moon suddenly jumped out from the east.

The reason why the sky is not dark is probably because it replaces the sun.

The boy lazily walked towards home.

A man is holding down the road.

I was thinking about some random things in my mind.

The plans for the sports festival finally went ahead.

The reason why he hesitated was not because he lacked the courage.

When Minister Shikano said that she hated being in the public eye, his thoughts began to wander.

He stood alone among the noisy crowd, a little confused.

He suddenly remembered a sentence mentioned in "Dear Andre".

The most "secret" game rule in chess is the "pawn".

Once the pawn crosses the river, there is no turning back.

In life, one decision affects another decision, and one accident is doomed to another accident. Therefore, accidents are never accidents. One road is bound to lead to the next road, and there is no turning back.

And all decisions in life are actually "pawns" crossing the river.

Just like the matchmaking of [the world].

After painstakingly and carefully laid out the chess game, the marshals of the two armies immediately met.

Suddenly the chess player stood up and said, "No more playing."

How embarrassing it would be to back down at the last moment.

So he still played a game of chess seriously.

In this way, some trivial matters were solved.

Unconsciously, he wandered to the door of the izakaya.

Small night lights hanging from the eaves.

It's warm yellow.

Just like the setting sun.

Generosity sprinkled residual warmth on him.

"I'm back."

He opened the door and shouted.

"Welcome home." Ms. Huatian coughed lightly.

"Welcome home!" The drinkers still like to raise their glasses in response.

"Have you caught a cold?" Natsume Qingyu asked with concern.

"Small problem, I probably went to bed too late last night." Ms. Hanada scratched her head like a child and said perfunctorily.

"Mom, you go and have a rest. I'll help take back the stall." Natsume Qingyu put her schoolbag on the bar and skillfully held the cocktail shaker.

"Then I'll trouble you, Ersha."

"Everyone, please remember not to drink too late." Before going upstairs, Ms. Huatian did not forget to tell the drinkers.

"Oh."

…………

The next day, school is over.

Natsume Kiyoha, with some dark circles under his eyes, hesitated while walking on the way to the club building.

It is clear.

He didn't sleep well last night.

There is not enough time to catch up on sleep during class.

Not because the izakaya was busy too late.

But people will always be extremely awake at night.

Being sentimental, he thought about a bunch of messy things.

About Hatsukano Suzune.

They clearly showed their feelings to each other.

But it seems no different from usual.

That means the love she understands and the love that normal people understand are two different things.

Just like love and marriage.

No matter what response he would get today, he had figured it out.

The probability of death is 100%, the probability of lifelong regret is 82%, the probability of meeting someone is 0.00478%, the probability of becoming a couple is 50 in 70 billion, the probability of failure to express love is 83%, and the probability of breaking up and getting back together is 3% , the probability of the two reaching the end is %.

Meeting itself is a very small thing.

What a pity it would be to miss each other because of a difference in thought.

As the saying goes in psychology.

Making the other person fall in love with you is your own task.

Forcing the other party to respond is just putting pressure on yourself.

Think of this.

Natsume Qingyu took a long breath and opened the door of the mobile classroom.

Jingle bell~
The crisp wind chimes are as clear as ever.

A familiar figure was sitting by the window, his hands gently turning the pages of the book, his expression very gentle. He seemed to be the only one who felt heavy.

Is this what you call pre-match nerves?
"Good afternoon, member Natsume." Suzune Hatsugano suddenly raised her head, looked at him with bright eyes, and raised the corners of her mouth slightly, forming a gentle smile.

Then, she put the bookmark into the title page, closed the book, and gently pushed it to the side of the desk.

Having been with Hatsukano Suzune for a long time, Natsume Qingha naturally understood the other person's behavioral intentions.

"Good afternoon, Minister Hatsukano." He responded as he came to the desk and sat down.

beep.

original.

The water in the teapot has boiled.

There is also a small plate of macaron cake on the table.

It seemed like a pleasant tea party.

A few minutes later.

Natsume Qingyu looked at the steaming water in his hand, and then looked at the leisurely girl opposite who was sipping warm tea and fell into deep thought.

Since she forgot to pour me tea, it should be reasonable for me to eat a small piece of cake to balance my mind, right?

The young man lowered his head and took a sip of water.

His eyes wandered left and right, taking advantage of the other person's cup to drink.

With the cover of the cup, he quietly made his way towards the plate of delicate pastries at lightning speed.

Snapped.

The giant dragon guarding the treasure on the opposite side was no ordinary person, and he was distinguished from him in a flash of lightning.

"Let's talk about the embarrassing thing you did yesterday first." The girl put down the teacup gracefully and pulled the boy into the interrogation room.

"What embarrassing thing to talk about? It was a seamless plan that everyone was happy with." Natsume Qingyu touched his claws that were beaten back.

"Does seamlessness mean making shameful things public?"

"I didn't say anything! They were all making noise." Natsume Qingyu started to shirk responsibility with his eyebrows, which looked very funny.

"..."

Afraid of laughing out loud, Hatsukano Suzune lowered her head and looked at the steaming tea cup in her hand.

She wanted to be angry, but the other party did not do anything extraordinary.

It's a pity that I am not an unreasonable person.

"As long as you are the first to declare the person you like, people around you will definitely have concerns. It is like swearing your sovereignty over love. If someone knows about it and still disturbs him, he will be easily accused. Being called a third party. I just took advantage of everyone's little thoughts." Natsume Kiyoshi explained righteously.

"Having said that, the method is quite clumsy." Of course, Hatsugano Suzune understood everything he said and raised her eyes to accuse.

"But it's very effective, isn't it? You were worried about the love letter, and I was worried about the love letter. Now, isn't it solved at the same time?" The young man showed an expression asking for praise, "Besides, I didn't lie. We like each other, don’t we?”

"That's true, but...we haven't dated yet, have we?"

"So what? It's enough to give others the illusion that 'we are a couple'." Natsume Kiyoha turned to the offensive, "Or, Minister Hatsukano has other boys he likes. If that's true, then It is indeed my fault, I will..."

"No." Hatsukano Suzune objected, her voice louder than anything she had said before.

"Oh, oh oh." Natsume Qingyu's eyes wandered elsewhere, looking at the halo-coated bookshelf, and sipped the water in the cup.

It actually tastes a little sweet on the taste buds.

He thought that he was probably sick.

"Aren't you angry?"

There was a girl who was probably being so cautious for the first time.

The young man who thought of this almost choked the water in his trachea with laughter and looked back.

"What are you angry about?"

"Normally speaking, when someone expresses your feelings, you need to respond, right?"

Hatsukano Suzune's hands on her knees were slightly clenched, but her expression was the same as usual.

Probably for some reason, I can't accept it for the time being.

"Minister, when did you suffer from Alzheimer's disease? Didn't I already get a pretty incredible response?" Natsume Qingyu suppressed a smile and added another glass of water to himself.

He knew that he could secretly pour a cup of tea while the girl was brewing her emotions.

But it is not necessary.

He has better ideas.

"Club member Natsume, you are so gentle that it's hard to get used to it."

"This is not gentle, but sensible."

The boy holding his chin in one hand shook his head lazily and continued.

"Just like when you are reading too close, you will not be able to see clearly. Similarly, if you want to build a good interpersonal relationship, you also need to keep a certain distance. If you are close to the person you like all of a sudden, then Then I can’t have a direct conversation with the other party. It’s simply not worth the gain, and I quite like the minister’s poisonous tongue.”

"The last sentence is redundant."

"Really? I think it's the most important thing."

Natsume Qingyu calmed his eyes slightly, raised his head, and met the girl's clear eyes.

Then say.

"After all, subject separation is never the ultimate goal of interpersonal relationships, but the entrance. The reason why the minister is troubled by this is because he has fallen into the misunderstanding of subject separation. I think that if I don't respond, I will betray my good intentions. But it is actually a kind of thought. Restraint. If the other party does something for you, even if it is not what you expect, you still have to repay it. Then how tiring the life of the best people in the world must be."

As a native of the Eastern Kingdom in his previous life, he understood all this very well.

Why do people in the East always use romantic and free words to describe foreign marriages?
That's because of the strong cultural differences, "reward" is engraved in the bones of Dongguo people.

Gifts are given in return during festivals and holidays, and dowry is used as a dowry when a couple gets married.

It’s not that it’s bad, it’s just that the thinking is irrational.

It seems as if all the bonds have turned into thoughts of return.

'Because I have done this for you, you should reward me accordingly'

Otherwise it wouldn't appear.

Couples break up and demand financial contributions, couples quarrel over betrothal gifts, parents regard their children as life bets, and so on.

"So, 'making a great minister fall in love with a stupid member' has been my own project from beginning to end."

"So, Minister Hatsukano doesn't have to worry about it." The young man smiled quite relievedly, but his heart became empty.

Is this the consequence of seeing things in the world too clearly?

A brief breath.

The bookstore seemed to fall into some kind of silence.

Time seems to become slow and gentle.

"But if you can't let a stupid member fall in love with your minister, it doesn't seem to be great."

The ethereal voice of Hatsukano Suzune was not loud, but it broke the sticky silence in the room, radiating endless power and filling the entire room.

At some point, the boy who was chewing on the empty tea cup opened his eyes slightly and looked at her.

It feels like you are on the shores of Walden Pond.

“After all, children who don’t learn to face difficulties head-on will eventually want to avoid all difficulties.”

The sunlight shining through the window screen shone across her profile, and the dust in the air was clearly visible, jumping around on the quaint desk like an elf.

Incredibly beautiful.

"Minister Hatsukano, you have changed. You are no longer the same as before." The young man said with emotion.

"Member Natsume, you have also changed. You are no longer the same as before." The girl raised her neck again and responded not to be outdone.

"So, can I eat the cake now?" Natsume Qingyu stretched out his hand again and asked in a child-like tone.

Snapped.

"Wash your hands first." Hatsukano Suzune slapped the dog's paws again and warned in a motherly tone.

"Why is this boiled water tasteless?" Natsume Qingyu hinted with crazy eyes.

"Member Natsume, the result of repeated interference by adults will be that the children will learn nothing and eventually lose the courage to face life's issues." The encyclopedia talked about the principle of maturity.

"Ahhh, I hate psychology."

One child let out a "whoops"-like anger.

"Please return to me the gentle minister who brought tea and water a few days ago!"

"Go ahead and dream."

The screen stops.

The boy tilted his head.

Is there such a good thing?
It’s not just you who has the final say in the dream!
