Chapter 392: Someday
Chapter 392 One day
"what are you doing?"
Natsume Naoki pulled up a backless chair and sat next to her, leaning his face closer: "I know you don't have many friends in the village, but you're not so bored that you're playing on your phone, right?"
Asai Mao's beautiful fingers pointed on the screen, as if she was typing, but she stopped after a few taps, as if she was considering her words.
Without raising her head, she heard Natsume Naoki's words and felt his face coming closer, while her attention was still on her mobile phone.
The whole body just tilted in his direction without any trace, the amplitude was as subtle as the Leaning Tower of Pisa, but in the end the shoulders were still touching each other.
"While editing sales information, I spent the past two days at home with nothing to do and wrote a program that allows people nearby to see my ads first on Twitter."
"I thought you were bored." Natsume Naoki said with a smile: "I'm worried that you will feel lonely if you have no one to talk to... If you feel shy staying with my parents, it would be good to go and chat with your aunt.
, it’s better than being alone here.”
"You think I will be lonely, so you come to accompany me instead of accompanying your rich daughter?"
The corner of Asai's mouth raised an imperceptible arc, but he was still very strong: "Just because I told you at home that I am not afraid of someone but don't like someone? It's too sensitive. Compared with the whole world, I'm just alone.
It’s just about eating... I’ve been here like this for the past ten years.”
"It's in line with her character," Asai said, "I already feel like she's being patient even if I don't punch you."
Hey, my frown is relieved a little.
"Which one did you catch?" Asai was a little confused.
You two were clearly flirting, but why did it seem like I had done something wrong?
It was a cocktail mixed with whiskey and soda water, which was very common in bars in Japan. Natsume Naoki thought that Nanami might have bought it from a bar in the town because she was not used to drinking it in the village tavern.
The aunt and niece met each other's eyes, and it happened that Nanami saw Natsume Naoki's tender gaze towards Asai.
Natsume Naoki then said: "When I went to the dessert shop in town today, I was actually with Amamiya Chizuru on the way there."
Girls will use abnormal behavior to attract boys' attention!
He once thought in his mind that one day he would be able to tame Mao in just one day, but he could even tame a senior with the physical strength of his senior sister, but he could not become the master of a little maid with 9 physical strength. This made him feel even more sad about life.
Among them, Nanami is probably the only one who can show such a posture of Asai Mao.
"Yesterday, yesterday at noon in Hakodate." Natsume Naoki became a little more serious and no longer smiled playfully: "I have thought about it for a long time, maybe the answer I gave to Nanami Ye is the same as that of my senior sister."
Asai stopped talking, lowered his head to eat the noodles, and made a "Lulu" sound as if to retaliate.
There are very few times when Asai is upset.
"When, why don't I remember."
What are you looking at, drunkard!
The latter shrugged his shoulders, and drank the Highball in his hand with an expression like "The kid is really petty."
no respond.
"She was very angry, really angry." Naoki Natsume recalled Chizuru Amamiya's appearance at the highway cafe: "She also said that you and your senior must be angry too, but you won't show it.
But she was not used to it. She scolded me a lot... but she still forgave me after scolding me, so she angrily said, "Even if I am angry, I will forgive you in the end. It is better not to be angry." She said this.
After that, she praised you for your foresight."
Natsume Naoki touched her head and said that it was because of this experience that she understood how lonely it was to eat alone!
As if due to a connection between blood vessels, Nanamiye, who was far away from the two of them and could not hear the sound, paused while holding the wine glass and turned her head to look over.
Asai crossed her arms across her chest and frowned slightly. Natsume Naoki found her look a bit funny, but she didn't seem to feel helpless because of the disharmony between her and her aunt.
Just because one has soup and the other doesn't?
Natsume Naoki told her about catching eels at noon. After Asai listened quietly, he originally thought that the focus would be on himself and Nanami, but to his surprise, Asai pointed at his bowl with chopsticks.
It's just that most girls don't grasp this issue of scale well, and there are quite a few who end up being arrogant and begging for coaxing with a straight face, turning into cold wars with scornful expressions.
Asai still didn't speak.
Then Asai glared at her.
Facing Asai's burning gaze, he felt that everything was about to be put on the table.
Natsume Naoki took the sea bowl as big as his face. Inside, a whole eel with the head and tail cut off was fragrant. It was spread on the rice with distinct grains. Next to it were cucumber shreds and carrot shreds, and a few slices.
The Naruto roll looks appetizing.
"I guess this is the one I caught." He clasped his hands together and chuckled.
emmmmmmm
Suddenly, a bold idea came to Natsume Naoki's mind.
In fact, this behavior has been going on since childhood. When Naoki Natsume saw Asai burying her head in eating noodles and purring, she seemed to have seen her when she was a child.
"I didn't remember until I watched it again in my dream that you would stamp your feet when you were angry when you were a child." Naoki Natsume said with a smile: "When you grow up, you stop stamping your feet. Has it changed to this?"
"Then let me ask bluntly." Asai Mao paused and said, "Who do you choose between me and her?"
Natsume Naoki looked at her and smiled: "You obviously understand, but you got angry at me because you didn't hear what you wanted to hear."
Natsume Naoki looked at the grilled eel in his bowl. The fragrant eel was so tempting that his eyes seemed to be sucked away by the slightly burnt flesh.
He picked up a piece of eel with chopsticks, put it in his mouth and tasted it carefully.
"Have a bowl of eel rice."
"It's very fragrant. After eating the first piece, you will want to eat the second piece." He chewed carefully and commented softly: "The grilled eel already in the bowl will arouse my appetite, because I am hungry now.
, I couldn’t stop after taking one bite. But after I finish eating this big bowl, if I feel full and tired of eating, I may not want to eat eel rice again for a long time.”
"Talk about people!" Asai frowned displeased.
It is not an ungraceful thing in Japan to make a sound while slurping noodles, but Asai used to eat noodles without making any sound.
After saying this, Natsume Naoki glanced sideways at Asai to observe her reaction.
"Assuming this is really the one you caught, is she me or Nanami Ye?"
If you can't do it yourself, then one day it's Nanami Yelai's turn...
Natsume Naoki asked: "What about you?"
"Naoki, what do you need?" A short man came over with a mountain of bowls and boldly interrupted the bold thoughts in his mind: "Eel rice or soba noodles?"
Finally, Asai spoke: "What did she say?"
Natsume Naoki was stunned.
"Yeah?"
Between lovers, well... just keep a straight face!
It's hard even for me to explain what happened between the two of them. On the contrary, it's like watching good friends fight with each other.
"Besides, you didn't have anyone to accompany you when you were in Tokyo, right? So you can understand me, you just eat alone..." Asai turned off the screen of his phone and looked up at him, with a bit of disgust in his eyes: "Also,
, instead of chatting with her, I might as well play with my phone by myself."
It seems that not only smart girls like to listen to love words, but aggressive little maids also feel happy when they are coaxed with a cold face!
What she wanted was soba noodles. She actually didn't understand why Natsume Naoki, who liked hot dry noodles, didn't like soba noodles.
This bowl is placed in Shinjuku or Ikebukuro. If the shop selling eel rice bowl has "pine" or "bamboo" hanging on the door, then it must be a "pine" grade.
"I told her, honestly."
Asai gracefully took a napkin and wiped his mouth. Naoki Natsume was surprised to find that he had just eaten a piece of eel rice, and Asai had actually eaten the entire bowl of soba noodles!
He paused and continued: "I've already told you the answer."
Asai raised his eyes and looked at him: "Let's continue sleeping in the living room tonight. I won't be merciful this time."
At this moment, Uncle Murata walked over quickly and patted Natsume Naoki on the shoulder: "Naoki, Mr. Amamiya asked you to come over."
"We'll discuss where I'll sleep tonight when we come back." Naoki Natsume hesitated, and finally followed Murata.
Asai looked at Natsume Naoki's retreating back, raised his eyebrows, took the remaining eel rice from him, and started to cook again.
Chapter completed!
