Chapter 246 Going to Hokkaido during summer vacation

"Little guy, ten years ago..."

"What?"

Natsume Naoki was admiring Nanami Ye's manuscript. While sighing that the school doctor was truly amazing, he heard what she seemed to be saying.

As a result, I listened to it ten years ago and there is nothing more to say about it.

Qihaiye looked at him, looking at his face carefully, as if she wanted to see something from this side of his face, searching for it in the ocean of memory.

Natsume Naoki also turned to look at her, and the two looked at each other.

Nanami shook her head at the end of the night and said softly: "How old were you ten years ago."

It's not a question, it's like talking to oneself.

It seems that if you don't think so, you won't be able to accept this fact.

"Probably when I was in elementary school." Natsume Naoki thought for a moment, then regretted slightly: "I can't remember exactly what happened ten years ago. My childhood memories are hazy."

There was silence in the room for a while. The door had been opened. The draft blew in from the outside and slipped around, raising the curtains and moving slightly.

"Have a rest, there is still one more class, let's get started." Nanamiye calmed down and returned to her stern teacher image.

In this way, accompanied by the breeze, Natsume Naoki calmed down and realized the charm of Nanami's paintings that had been with him for ten years.

One stroke at a time, one movement at a time, Natsume Naoki looked at Nanami Ye who was teaching seriously and could understand that she really loved painting.

But what Qihaiye was thinking about was who was the blue figure who helped her regain her confidence when she was at her lowest point.

Natsume Naoki just held her hand, and the touch at that moment made her absent-minded, always feeling like something was scratching her heart and lungs.

It's like feeling something but not being able to solve it with your hands. The knees touch each other and cause slight friction.

Soon it was nearly an hour again, almost eleven o'clock, and it was time to have lunch.

Natsume Naoki stretched out. After being a model all morning, his whole body was feeling sore. He would probably have sore muscles when he woke up tomorrow morning.

"Would you like to stay for lunch?" Nanami asked.

Natsume Naoki shook his head, "There's no need for lunch. I'll go home to eat. Thank you, the school doctor."

Qihaiye nodded, without forcing it, and asked, "When will you come next time?"

At this time, Himeno was downstairs, shouting and eating. He came to the villa to study painting. If he didn't want to leave at noon, he was in charge of the food. The standards were very high. The food was ordered from a famous izakaya nearby, and it was still steaming hot when it was delivered.

Seeing that Natsume Naoki didn't stay, Nanami also had no appetite.

She had developed a habit in the past, always eating tomatoes when painting. As time went by, she was almost half full after painting in the morning.

This is really not an exaggeration. When she first came to live in Tokyo, it was already a good life to be able to eat tomatoes until she was half full.

Most of the time, I would eat a cup of cup noodles all day long, cut it into two pieces, and make half a cup at a time. Then I would go to major publishing houses to try my luck with my comics all day long. Most of the time, after being rejected,

She sat on a bench outside the publishing house, watching the cars passing by on the street, and then stared at the noodle shop on the roadside in a daze.

At that time, she thought that if she had money, she would eat the most expensive food and live a luxurious life every day.

Now that she really has money, she does, but she still feels that she can eat two mouthfuls of tomatoes while painting and feel the sweet and sour taste spreading in her mouth, which is the most peaceful thing.

Natsume Naoki packed his schoolbag, thought about it seriously, and said with some regret: "The next time will probably be after summer vacation."

Nanamiye asked: "Do you have any plans for the summer vacation?"

"If nothing else, I'll go back to my hometown in Hokkaido." Naoki Natsume thought for a moment, "I've been living in Tokyo since I was in junior high school, and I haven't been back much. The last time I went back was during the New Year celebrations in my second year of high school."

Qi Haiye frowned slightly when he heard this.

Only then did she remember that she and Natsume Naoki were actually from the same hometown.

"Hokkaido."

She muttered softly, and the pronunciation of the few words meandered on the tip of her tongue and mouth. Finally, she spat it out gently, and flew away in the breeze.

Natsume Naoki felt that this name made Nanami feel a little sad when she said it.

It is true, after all, Hokkaido has bad memories for her, and there are also people and things that she is sorry for.

Natsume Naoki said goodbye and left, greeting Himeno downstairs.

Jiye looked at the second floor suspiciously, came up with a bang, then knocked on the door, leaned at the door and asked Nanamiye: "You won't really attack him, will you? He is your student! I didn't expect it.

Enjoy this bite."

Qihaiye was still sitting in front of the drawing board in silence. Hearing Ji Ye's chirping, she sighed: "Don't think that I am the same as you."

Jiye stuck out her tongue, and laughed when her old story was revealed.

She is the kind of woman who is relatively casual, and she and her current husband met on a dating app. After the two veterans met, they found that they were very comfortable getting along with each other, comfortable in every sense of the word, so they simply moved in together.

Got married not long ago.

Jiye's husband is a company executive. He usually goes to work during the day and comes back at night.

I met Nanami Ye only once, at a wedding banquet... She was actually right, she and Himeno were completely different people.

Himeno is the carnivorous type, she is the theoretical type, and so far no man has ever been able to make Nanami fall in love with her.

Perhaps, her heart had been stolen ten years ago by the figure who held her hand and taught her to draw pornographic comics all night long.

"Come down for dinner, I ordered your favorite curry beef donburi." Himeno came over and hugged Nanami Ye's arm and shook her: "It's the one I always recommend to you. They often serve your favorite dishes.

"

This move was a coquettish move that Himeno used to coax Nanami into in college. Girls all know that they must go to the toilet and eat with their good friends, otherwise they will always feel uncomfortable.

When Himeno wanted to go to dinner in college, he held Nanami's arm and shook her until she got impatient and followed him.

But Nanami Ye was very unusual today. She shook her head and said, "I'm full from eating tomatoes."

Ji Ye was stunned and looked at the fruit plate next to him.

There was nothing left inside.

"Did you eat them all?"

"I only ate tomatoes, and the other fruits were eaten by the little guy."

"My little one, this is the first time I've seen you so interested in a man... Even though he is younger than you, I still don't think you will like this one, right?"

Qihaiye lowered her eyebrows and thought for a moment, then said softly: "Am I special to him?"

"Anyway, I've never seen you talking about any man. When I was in college, everyone was talking about men, and you were the only one talking about the dead ones."

What we are talking about here are famous painters who have passed away. Nanami studied medicine at university, but she is more interested in painting than Himeno, who majored in art.

Nanami Ye did not refute, but said to Himeno: "How many students do you have there, and when will the latest one end?"

Himeno didn't understand why Nanami Ye asked this, but she still answered truthfully: "It should be the day after tomorrow...I'll go down and ask later."

Nanami nodded and said after a long time: "I want to go back to Hokkaido during the summer vacation. I am no longer in Tokyo. Remember not to accept any more students."

"Hey, what?"

Ji Ye thought he heard wrongly, but after a while his face was full of surprise: "You finally figured it out?"
