"I've already dragged you into this, Xiao Mu. You'll definitely help me, right? Remember to take care of Xiao Xiang later."
"..."
"give it to me."
Chapter 185. My little Ning, she's asleep.
Ningzi wants to come to my house.
Should I say yes, or should I say yes?
Faced with the difficult choice, Ruoye Mu, after anxiously considering it, still chose to agree.
After all... who could resist such temptation?
Why would anyone use this to test her?
Xiangzi will take care of things himself, and Su Shi will also take her home.
This night will surely be marked by the name of Wakaba Mutsu.
Otherwise, it would be a huge loss.
The seawater even seeped into Mu's ears, and Mu felt something within her disappear, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
What were Su Shi and Ning Zi doing just now? They were completely soaked. If they had just been rolling around in the sea, they probably wouldn't have been able to do this.
They were hiding something and clearly had no intention of telling her.
Mu pondered what he, as a "cleaner" who had been summoned, still needed to do for these two.
But something was always bothering Mu's thoughts, making her mind confused and unable to function.
Just like...
"Xiao Ning...it's so hot..."
Toyokawa Ningko's hot breath visited Wakaba Mutsu's face again, making Mutsu's eyes almost melt.
Also burning up is the pet necklace around its neck, which has been mostly swallowed by seawater.
If the tide rises again, the necklace and harmony will float up.
"Xiao Mu, Xiao Mu, why don't I call your sister and explain? You can just wait for the results."
“No need… But Xiao Ning, why do you want to stay at my house… Didn’t you bring me here with the driver just to pick you up and take you back?”
"No, no, it's just that I want to find someone to keep Su Shi away from me."
Toyokawa Neko gestured for Wakaba Mutsu to put her arm around her neck, while also turning her head slightly to look at Nagasaki Motoyo.
Su Shi was lying there unable to move at all; the series of extreme sports activities she did that night must have been really tough on her.
"Why did you dump her? Why did you come out with Su Shi again?"
"Because... hehe, everyone likes to ask questions tonight."
In the black sea, Wakaba Mutsu was like a patch of green seaweed. Toyokawa Ningko didn't dislike the small size of the idiot in her arms, but her body couldn't help but miss the greatness of Su Shi.
"Because Su Shi has experienced too much stress tonight, I hope she can process it properly... As for coming to see Su Shi..."
Ningzi's voice was so soft that Ruoye Mu could barely hear it.
The voice seemed to come not from the outside world, but from deep within Wakaba Mutsu's brain.
"I want to completely eliminate any worries, and Xiao Mu also hopes that everyone will have a good ending, right?"
"..."
Does Mu hope everyone has a happy ending?
Hopefully.
But if the solution to this problem is to make Xiao Ning and Su Shi get to know each other... it still feels a bit uncomfortable for some reason.
Why is it so.
One is her best friend, and the other is her master… her sister? Um… it doesn't matter anymore. Anyway, the question is, why are they connected…?
"Let's go, Xiao Mu, your driver must be getting impatient."
When Ningzi got up and left, she left behind her warmth for Mu. Mu felt the coolness of the seawater behind him and the lingering warmth in front of him, and for a moment he didn't want to move.
But she saw Ningzi walking towards Su Shi, seemingly trying to pull her up.
"Xiao Ning, let me do it."
Ruo Yemu quickly got up and rushed directly to Ningzi.
These two... shouldn't have any more contact, right?
Su Shi can go find Xiangzi. Ningzi is fine with me.
When Wakaba Mutsumi had this thought, even she was stunned.
Beneath this night sky filled with revelations and dreams, and wading through seawater as black as the earth, Wakaba Mutsu had his first distinct and strange thought.
Is this... jealousy?
I can't believe I even realize I'm jealous.
……
"Miss, why are you wet too?"
"It's raining."
"But outside... okay, I'll prepare an umbrella for you next time."
The female driver looked at the spotless windshield and silently chose to keep quiet.
She understood; she understood everything.
These are just some more stories about female copper workers that I shouldn't have heard.
"Su Shi, we'll take you home first, okay?"
Mutsu, sitting on the far left, asked Nagasaki Motoyo on the far right.
"Ha, it's me... Xiao Ning..."
Nagasaki Motoyo subconsciously glanced at Toyokawa Ningko; she didn't want to go back to that empty room and play the game of pouring herself coffee in front of the mirror.
"What, you don't want to leave?"
"Is it okay... If I go back, I'll still be all alone at home."
"But I'm going to Xiao Mu's house. Oh, right, I forgot to call Xiangzi to tell him."
"Xiao Mu, what are you going to say to Xiangzi later?"
Ningzi was like a social butterfly, flitting back and forth between the little brown and green hairs on the side.
"Don't worry, leave it to me... I'm good with words."
After listening to Ningzi's whispered words, Mu dialed Xiangzi's number, and the other party seemed ready to answer at any moment.
I dialed it and it was answered immediately.
"Xiao Mu? Now Xiao Ning, she..."
"Xiao Ning was half asleep, but..."
"what?"
"Xiao Ning said she wanted to sleep on a softer bed."
"..."
A softer bed?
The bed at home was very hard, and it took Toyokawa Shoko several months to gradually get used to it.
"What is it? Ningzi wants to sleep on a softer bed? Is it...?"
"Let Ningzi stay at my place tonight. I think she might need to have a better time... Xiaoxiang, is that okay, just this once?"
"..."
After a long silence, Toyokawa Shoko finally let out a long sigh on the other end of the phone.
"Okay... I'll take her out for something nice to eat, but I'm sorry I don't have the means... Please, Xiao Mu, take good care of my Ningzi for me tonight."
It's your Ningzi again? It's your Ningzi again?
Wakaba Mutsu didn't have much affection for these words.
She disliked others labeling Ningzi as belonging to someone else, and she always felt that Xiangzi was deliberately saying this to her.
That means:
Ningzi is mine. I'm just lending her to you to take care of. You just need to take good care of her and then send her back. Everything else is none of your business.
But... I'm also Ningzi's family.
Xiao Xiang, you really are on a pedestal now.
"Okay, I'll take your picture when we get there, don't worry, go home now, Xiao Xiang."
"Can Xiaoning say something to me? I'm still worried..."
"No need, Xiao Xiang."
Ruo Yemu had already turned off her phone's speakerphone; she looked out the window at the trees rushing by.
"My little Ning, she's asleep."
...... ...... ......
The chapter has been modified.
...... ...... ......
Ch186. Savor it slowly when you get home.
beep-
Standing on the street near her home, Toyokawa Shoko remained stunned for a long time after the phone call was disconnected.
What did Mu say?
"..."
Harmony means…
Her Ningzi?
"This guy, could he be having feelings for my sister... How could he do this? She's my friend, how could he have feelings for my sister?"
If Mudu has feelings for Ningzi, then wouldn't everyone else also...?
Takamatsu Akari, Shiina Tatsuki, and the not-so-bright pink-haired Chihaya Aine that Shoko met in the music room.
Surely not everyone is eyeing her Xiao Ning covetously.
"Ugh."
Ultimately, it was because I was too weak.
Mutsu's words, that Ningzi wanted to sleep on a softer bed, really stung Toyokawa Shoko.
A softer bed would be ridiculously expensive. If it were just a mattress, it would be a bit more affordable, but that's still beyond what Toyokawa Shoko can afford right now.
Even if you took out a month's salary from your part-time job, it might not be enough.
"I wish I were still the same Xiangzi I used to be."
The streetlights were out of service, and the street lamps on the side of the street were completely ineffective. Xiangzi felt his way back along the wall.
These low walls are quite common in this area. The last time I encountered a strange person on my way home at night, it was also in this neighborhood.
"How awful! Why did I become such a terrible older sister who can't meet my younger sister's needs? I promised Mother that I would take good care of Ningzi and Father."
As a result, my sister was targeted by all sorts of bad women.
My father also went missing after he started working in northern Myanmar.
The enormous city of Tokyo was so different from the one Xiangzi remembered.
