Chapter 429 It is undeniable that Liuli still likes him in her heart...
Fifteen minutes later, Kanbaru drove his sports car to the front of Omotesando Station. This place is located between Minato City and Shibuya District. There are rows of trees on both sides of the road. It is a bustling shopping and cultural district with its wide streets.
Famous for its tree-lined boulevards, stylish boutiques, cafés and artistic atmosphere.
Naturally, tourists and young people from all over the world are inevitable here.
Kagura Raku turned the vehicle onto a main road lined with ginkgo trees on both sides. Tianhai Jiuliuli, who was sitting in the passenger seat, clearly observed that the tourists and young people on both sides of the road were looking at the supercar he was riding in curiously.
Their eyes may be filled with wonder, envy...or pure interest and curiosity. Occasionally, some people may question whether this sports car is worthy of its price range.
Some brave people have already raised their mobile phones to take pictures.
...
While Tianhai Jiuli was observing this, he turned his gaze back to the side of Kambara Raku's face who was concentrating on driving.
She was wondering if Lejun was pursuing a similar look when he drove a sports car out for a drive.
Kambaraku found a suitable place to park, and then walked into the Omotesando shopping street full of trees.
The streets are full of strange buildings with unique artistic flavor.
After walking for a while, a store with an appearance that seemed out of place on the bustling wide road came into view.
Using wood and bamboo as the main materials, it blends in with the surrounding natural environment. There is an arched doorway at the entrance, with spreading green plants planted above. An ancient wrought iron sign hangs above the store door, writing the name of Guxin Cafe
.
When Tianhai Jiuliuli followed Kanbaru Le and looked at the store curiously, he was already at the front and pushed the door open for him with his own hands.
When I opened the door, the crisp sound of copper bells was still lingering in my ears.
"..."
Tianhai Jiuliuli looked at him standing on the steps with some curiosity.
"What's wrong?"
"...It's nothing, I just feel that Lejun is a bit trying to please me."
"It's rare to go out for coffee with such a beautiful lady. Don't you need to be more gentlemanly?"
Kanbaru said teasingly, her tone and movements changing in line with the words.
Naturally, Tianhai Jiuliuli would not be someone who would be so happy and forgetful because of such words, but I just felt that his attitude had changed a bit.
Maybe...it's really not his fault that Lejun is so popular when he plays basketball?
He receives small gifts such as water and drinks, but he just doesn't know...
"Thanks..."
Tianhai Jiuliuli thanked her and walked into the coffee shop first.
The two of them pulled out chairs by the window and took their seats.
The waiter brought water, and Kanbaru took the menu and opened it.
"Liuli hasn't eaten yet after training in the afternoon. Do you want something extra? How about smoked salmon with cheese?"
"...Anything is fine."
"Well."
Kanbaru ordered himself a chicken, vegetable salad, and two extra cups of milk coffee, and handed the menu back to the waiter.
"I have actually been to this store before." Tianhai Jiuliuli looked around, and finally withdrew his gaze, focusing on the street with towering trees outside the window.
"oh?"
Tianhai Jiuliuli nodded and faced Shenyuanle again:
"It's just that it's very different from what I remember. In the past, when my mother would come to visit me and Qiyue, she would often bring us here. If you look closely, you can see that the changes are really big..."
"It sounds like Liuli doesn't like changes?"
"Changes can be good or bad, but no matter how they change, as long as you don't particularly hate the impression of the past, you will still have some nostalgia for the past where you lived."
——It’s really a twist and turn.
However, it’s not that Kanbaru couldn’t understand Liuli’s idea of taking the initiative to turn the topic onto the right track.
But at this time, he felt inexplicably unwilling to say these words so soon.
It's not resistance.
But I feel that talking about these makes me feel tired.
This reminded Kanbaru of himself not long ago.
If Liuli and Qiyue could give him a chance to sit down and talk, he would definitely try his best to explain to them.
You must do your best to take care of their mood and explain your thoughts.
After all, I did feel sorry for them.
Speaking of which, if you keep trying to find them, you will never get the right response, and you won't even get a chance to speak. But once you let go, the needs will actively look for you.
"Lejun, why do you want to take Zhixue back?"
"This..."
"Obviously Lejun has made a promise to both me and Qiyue...but those words that day were undoubtedly betrayal to us."
Kanbaru thought for a moment, "This matter is very complicated, and I don't deny my own mistakes... Let's put it this way, Liuli, why do you think I chose to take care of you in the past? Why did you choose to dump me in Liuli?
After that, I will take the initiative to take care of you."
Tianhai Jiuliuli was speechless.
The word "dump away"... No matter how calm Kambaraku's tone was just now, to Tianhai Jiuliuli's ears, it was really dazzling.
"...It was indeed my fault that time... Lejun was willing to treat me like that at that time because he felt very uncomfortable and sad for me, so he took the initiative to step forward..."
"Actually, it's more than that." Kanbaru shook his head. "If it were based on this alone, I wouldn't take the initiative to approach you Liuli. But after I overheard what my aunt said to you, I realized that you yourself were also affected.
If a person makes a mistake after being influenced by others, I think... no matter what, the burden on him should be lightened. What's more, I have some feelings for you, Liuli."
"Well...I understand what Lejun means."
"So, based on what I said above, the reason why I went to save Zhixue was because I couldn't deny the emotions I had with getting along with Xue these days...I also couldn't see a person who had been by my side like that
Happy people fall into a situation where they can only be depressed forever.
"She made a mistake, but she did sincerely repent. She couldn't suppress her inner feelings, but she chose to hide her feelings and leave voluntarily.
"This is the sincerity that Yuki possesses...
"Put yourself in Zhixue's shoes, was it the same as you, Liuli, who was abandoned by everyone?
"This is consistent with my decision to forgive you, Liuli."
...
Tianhai Jiuliuli took a good look at what Kamharale said.
It's complicated, but not incomprehensible.
Kambara was explaining his motivation for choosing to take Yuki home.
The motivation for this departure was not out of liking Zhixue in the sense of love, but because he couldn't bear to see Zhixue fall into that situation, and Zhixue needed him so much.
...
In a sense, is this an emotional betrayal?
After taking the meal from the waiter, Kanbaru continued:
"Liu Li also wants to hear how I treat Zhixue recently."
"Um."
"You may have heard some opinions from A Ling. Let me tell you personally here. In fact, my relationship with Zhixue is not as close as it was when we lived together before."
Tianhai Jiuliuli listened patiently.
"The relationship between Zhixue and me is very complicated now, and I did promise her that I would be responsible for her. You probably don't know, Liuli, that when I brought Zhixue back, I helped her repair the life manual that was soaked by the rain.
After we got together, she confessed her love to me."
Tianhai Jiuliuli: "...The kind that truly expresses your feelings?"
"yes."
Kanbaru stared at the cigarette tails floating on the coffee in front of him, "It's a long, long paragraph... Just listening to it makes me feel that her feelings are quite humble and weak, plus her own body
Conditions, as well as her life history in which she has never been truly loved by anyone, it is difficult not to think of wanting to take care of her.
"When I hear what she said, I always think of Zhixue who always likes to stare at children who have parents.
"Every time she sees some parents taking their children out to play and the parents buying things for their children, Zhixue will subconsciously take a step towards me.
"Every time I notice this, I always wonder, is there envy or fear in Yuki's eyes?"
When Kambaraku said this, he paused.
"Then I remembered that Zhixue just wanted to make me happy, so she worked hard to draw and give it to me...combined with a series of complicated pasts and feelings, it was difficult for me to let go of my desire to take care of Zhixue.
"This is consistent with wanting to take care of you Liuli."
Tianhai Jiuliuli: "Then what if there is a proper handling after Shuo Zhixue leaves?"
Kambara picked up the coffee and took a sip, "Of course everyone was happy, but I went to the fourth aunt's house where Zhixue was going to inspect in advance. The fourth aunt had a particularly pampered son, and a passerby touched him a little. In the eyes of the fourth aunt,
It's all disgust and disgust.
"In addition, Aunt Zi also said that the fourth aunt didn't like Zhixue in the past and was often neglected. If she has any conflict with that spoiled little nephew again...does Liuli think that would be a good place to go?"
"..."
Tianhai Jiuliuli couldn't refute.
Things about Zhixue are really too complicated.
She even felt that it would take thousands of words to describe the relationship between several people.
"Liu Li, because of this, I said to you that day that I was responsible for Zhixue. Now, I have agreed to Zhixue's request that she can stay with me for the rest of my life. I only considered you, and also because I am responsible for Zhixue.
Yuki has no love, and I have no guarantee that I can be responsible for her emotions."
Tianhai Jiuliuli stared at the reflection in the coffee and nodded: "I understand... Then what is the real relationship between Lejun and Zhixue now?"
"Hmm... It's hard to say. If you want to say that we are sworn brothers and sisters for life, it's not necessarily true. After all, Zhixue's feelings for me are indeed love."
Kanhara thought for a moment and came up with an explanation.
"Between us, now it's more like we each get what we need emotionally."
"...? I don't understand."
"It's very simple. The feelings I have for Zhixue are not love, but for Zhixue, these can be regarded as love."
Tianhai Jiuliuli understood instantly, "Then, Zhixue relies on this feeling to stay by your side, Lejun, and plans to follow you for the rest of his life?"
"Well, that's probably it."
"Grandpa, does he know?"
"He knows." Kagura Le nodded affirmatively, "He also agreed with me to take Zhixue back."
Tianhai Jiuliuli completely understood the current situation and asked the question he wanted to ask most now:
"Does Lejun think this is a betrayal of me and Qiyue?"
Kanbaru laughed:
"It all depends on you Liuli. If you think it is, it is, and if you think it is not, then it is not. No matter what, I promised Zhixue that I can stay with me forever."
...
The smoked salmon has been sitting in front of you for seven minutes.
Tianhai Jiuliu didn't take a bite.
When she was thinking about this matter, she just felt that it was hard to say...very hard to say...
It's said to be betrayal, but he has never betrayed emotionally, nor has he behaved...
Saying it wasn't a betrayal, he agreed to keep another girl by his side for the rest of his life.
I believe not many girls can accept this, right?
Hard to say...
It's really hard to say this.
It's really what Lejun said.
If you think so, it is.
No, that’s not it.
Everything comes down to personal opinion.
...
Lejun’s opinions and thoughts are very clear.
Then, the problem returns to itself.
Do you want to accept it?
Do you want to accept Lejun who will bring you Zhixue from now on?
...Tianhai Jiuliuli looked seriously at the face of Kaname Yuara opposite him.
For other people, past experiences may be forgotten as long as they get through it, but I can never forget the past. In my heart, haven't I already recognized him?
What the heart longs for is recognition and interdependence.
It was he who appeared in front of him in time and chose to ignore the past and save himself...
Now I can still recall the way I threw myself into his arms, holding on to his clothes and sobbing.
Even though he had done something sorry for him, he still wanted to give himself a place to rely on...
Tianhai Jiuliuli suddenly closed her eyes, with a faint smile on her face.
No... although these things are important, they have been the cornerstone that has been mentioned countless times. They are firmly fixed and cannot be shaken.
Kanbaru Raku, who was eating a salad, noticed her expression.
"Liu Li suddenly smiled when she looked at me. She thinks I'm so handsome recently? To tell you the truth, I even learned how to do makeup with A Ling in the past few days."
"...Huh? No, there's no way..." Tianhai Jiuliuli, who reacted slowly, shouted at him dissatisfied, "Recently, I just feel that you are neither salty nor indifferent towards me."
"Is it?"
Kanbaru held the dinner plate in front of him and sat down directly next to Tianhai Jiuliuli opposite. He then pulled up the coffee cup sitting opposite and moved it to him.
"Do, what do you do...get so close."
"To be honest, Liuli is a beautiful girl, I like her very much."
"..."
"Actually, everyone will like it, right? She is tall, has a good-looking face, is good at sports, and is a rich girl. To be honest, Liuli, I was very happy that you agreed to be my girlfriend at the beginning, and I really wanted to take you with you.
You go out shopping and show off to everyone that I am dating such a beautiful girl. It’s great.”
Tianhai Jiuliuli is not the kind of girl who gets happy when she hears kind words.
But the guy in front of me was praising him without using any fancy words. Hearing it in his heart, he felt very happy.
"Liu Li, you said I want to hold your waist now. There are so many young people in the store, how many people will envy me?"
"...Probably, a lot...?"
"That's all."
"...Why?"
He leaned forward slightly, leaned into the girl's ear, and whispered: "After all, Liuli is so beautiful that it makes me happy to see her beauty."
Tianhai Jiuliuli's ears immediately turned red, and he was sitting next to her indifferently, quietly eating his portion of vegetable salad.
But I'm just... happy... indescribably happy.
It's really strange... Obviously, I was angry with him not long ago...
Tianhai Jiuliuli stirred the coffee in the cup with a silver spoon very uneasily, lowered his head and whispered:
"Say sweet words every day..."
"If Liuli puts away her blush, I can still think that you hate these words."
"...Did Lejun go too far a few days ago?"
"Where is it?"
"Hmm...? Where else?"
"If Miss Liuli requests it, of course I will work hard to correct it."
"...That's about the same..." Tianhai Jiuliuli muttered, and the speed of turning the silver spoon with his right hand accelerated a lot in line with the smile that appeared inadvertently on his face.
"...Also, can you...can you say that title again?"
"Miss Liuli?"
"..." Tianhai Jiuliuli immediately pursed his lips happily, and then said in a serious manner, "If you shout well..."
