Chapter 46: Distant

 After answering Matsu Qianqiu's call, Naruse just spoke, and she suddenly said "Wait a moment". After a while, she added "I'll contact you later" and then hung up the phone.

.

Seeing him put down his mobile phone, Shangzi said: "Auntie's phone number?"

"Well, I've hung up. I said I'd call back later. I guess I just finished shooting and I'm still a little busy."

Takigawa Yue also came over and asked a few questions about Matsu Qianqiu.

"I followed the crew's Twitter. Recently, it seems that they were filming in Karuizawa?"

"Probably, I don't know as much as Sister Yue. Speaking of which, Sister Yue is busy preparing for exams now, doesn't she forget to chase stars?"

"Just pay a little attention every day before going to bed..."

Naruse smiled and looked at the starfish staring out the window.

When he received a call from Matsu Qianqiu just now, she was the one who reacted the most, and now she is pretending not to care.

"..."

Out of the corner of her eye, she caught him staring at her, and Haixing tilted her head to the other side.

He seemed to smile, and then turned back.

Not long after, the bus stopped and several people got off together.

After walking a little further, the Takigawa sisters said goodbye first.

"Good night everyone~"

"Good night."

When they arrived at the intersection where Naruse's house was, they didn't forget to say hello to Haixing before they turned the corner.

Of course she only responded to Shangzi.

Looking at the two people's backs drifting away, she flicked her ponytail and turned away.

It has been dark for a long time, and the street lights on both sides of the county road have been turned on.

When passing by Morimi Furu Honten, Haixing deliberately slowed down and looked inside.

As expected, Yiye is not in the store.

She should be studying at home at this time, Haixing thought, even though tomorrow is the weekend.

After all, when she finished the exam, her face looked extremely ugly.

It’s impossible to fail, right?

Haixing shook his head and denied his guess.

Regarding learning, the standards that they can meet are completely different. What Yiye pursues is perfection, not her "passing".

"It's better to take care of yourself first."

Picking up the bag on his shoulder, Haixing cooed and walked towards his hotel.

"Ah, I don't know how many subjects will fail this time... When the time comes, can I still ask Kazuyo for help?"

On the other side, Monk Naruse also returned home.

Because dinner was done outside, there was no need to clean up when we got home. After resting for a while, Naruse went to take a shower first.

And while he was taking a bath, Song Qianqiu called.

"Spring Sea——"

Shangzi stood outside the door holding his mobile phone, "It's aunt's phone number. Do you want to bring it in?"

Wow——

Naruse climbed out of the bathtub and walked behind the door.

"Give it to me."

I opened a gap slightly and handed in the towel along with the phone.

"Thank you."

"Hmm."

After wiping his hands and sitting down in the bathtub, he answered the phone.

"It's so slow! Mom's call must be answered immediately. Did Chunhai forget it?"

"I'm taking a shower."

"Really? I'll call back later?" Song Qianqiu said.

In addition to her voice, there were also the busy sounds of other staff members. It seemed that she was still at the filming site and had not returned to her residence.

"No, it's already soaking."

"It's great. Mom also wants to rush back and take a bath right away. She's so exhausted——"

"Thank you for your hard work."

Turning on the hands-free, placing the phone next to the bathtub, Naruse slid down, letting the hot water cover his shoulders, and closed his eyes in enjoyment.

"Why did we take the photo so late today?"

"There was an actress who was not satisfied with a certain scene after several takes, and kept asking for retakes, which was the reason why so much time was wasted."

Naruse smiled silently.

That actress is probably none other than someone else.

"So, what is it that Harumi wants to tell me?"

After Song Qianqiu complained about herself, she asked him about the message he wanted to talk to her about.

"Next week there will be three-party talks. You shouldn't have time to come back, right?"

"..."

The other end of the phone suddenly fell silent.

Amidst the busy sounds, Naruse faintly heard a long sigh.

He opened his eyes and sat up again.

"It's not a big deal. My grades are excellent and stable now. I'm popular in school and have made many friends. As a teacher, I feel reassured. Even if you can come back, you won't have anything to talk to her about..."<

/p>

"——Wow, it's only been a month since I transferred to another school, and I'm already so pretty." Song Qianqiu suddenly laughed.

Naruse also smiled and relaxed a little.

"In short, I just need a temporary guardian to attend the three-way interview. Shangzi's parents will be back next week, and I plan to ask them."

"Hmm, Mr. Mohua and the others..."

Song Qianqiu pondered for a while, "I haven't seen them in many years since I left Tianjin. Is that okay?"

"With Shangzi here, there should be no problem."

"Then it's up to Harumi to decide. Remember to say hello to Naoko and her parents for me."

"Hmm."

Later, the mother and son talked about some life matters.

"...Today, we will have dinner outside, with Shangzi."

"Oh, we're going on a date. What's for food?"

"Seafood BBQ."

"Wow, my mouth is watering. I'm still hungry... Couldn't it be the 'Mutsu Suisan' store over there at Central Station?"

"That's it."

"Sure enough. Ah, I miss it so much - I will never forget the crab cakes from that restaurant once I have eaten them."

After a while, Naruse heard the noise on the other end of the phone suddenly become louder.

"Thank you for your hard work, Miss Song. See you tomorrow."

"Thank you for your hard work~Be careful on the road."

"Miss Song, I'm going back."

"Thank you for your hard work, good night——"

People kept coming over to say hello to Matsu Chiaki, and she responded to them one by one, temporarily ignoring Naruse on the phone. He didn't speak, but just listened.

Hearing the sound of the car door sliding, he realized that she had been staying in the car.

Soon, several more people got on the bus.

With a muffled sound of the car door closing, someone said: "We have to go back."

There was a short burst of cheers in the carriage.

Then there is the sound of the engine starting.

"Is there any problem over there? The wooden board suddenly cracked. I was really shocked. Fortunately, I came down quickly."

"It's almost done. Mr. Takeda and the prop team are taking care of it. Let's come over tomorrow and discuss the rest."

"By the way, the director just said... Hey, Miss Song, is your cell phone... talking?"

"Huh? Ah, I forgot."

Song Qianqiu's voice suddenly became louder.

"Chunhai, are you still listening?"

Naruse responded, "Yeah."

"Mom is going back to where she lives."

"Well, thank you for your hard work. Where's dinner?"

"It will be sorted out on the way."

The people talking started talking again.

"Miss Song's son?"

"Yeah, he's still a handsome guy. I've met him several times before."

"Hmm, how old are you?"

"What are you doing? Masako is too old. Even if you want to attack him, at least you have to wait until Miss Song is gone."

"Hey, hey, I can't pretend I didn't hear you."

Matsu Qianqiu responded with a smile, said good night to Naruse, and hung up the phone.

Wow——

Putting his cell phone aside, he lay down and looked at the ceiling of the bathroom.

"Karuizawa... it's so far away."

Maybe after a long time, or maybe only a few minutes later, there was a slight noise outside the door.

"Chunhai, are you asleep?"

"Asleep."

She chuckled.

Naruse picked up a handful of water, patted it on his face, and looked out the dark window.

"It seems to be getting colder at night."

"It's already October."
