Gu Xing seemed surprised by Karasawa Makoto's surprise confession.
She looked at his eyes and guessed that this must be beyond his expectation, but she made up her mind to launch an offensive at this unexpected place.
"Sato and Chiyo told you a lot about me, right?"
Gu Xing nodded, with an even more surprised look on his face.
"You know," Karasawa Makoto said, "That's what we discussed."
Gu Xing was stunned at first, then smiled bitterly and said: "I thought you would hide this matter to the end."
"They say you are resistant to emotional matters,"
Karasawa Makoto stared at Gu Xing, "I think I will only offend you if I approach rashly. Now, I have almost no secrets from you."
Gu Xing shook his head, "For example, that cellar."
"For me," Karasawa Makoto smiled, "it's also a secret - it's very dangerous, don't think about it all day long."
This time it was Gu Xing's turn to lower his head, "Do you think I won't resist now?"
"to be honest,"
Karasawa Makoto and Gu Xing walked side by side, "I am also a difficult type when it comes to relationships. So when I first fell in love with you, I instinctively thought it was my illusion. For this reason,
I gave myself a full year to cool off."
Gu Xing continued to lower his head, "Didn't Rimi tell you that I might turn into a monster at any time?"
"So," Karasawa Makoto suddenly came closer to him and looked directly into his eyes, "that's why I have to cherish the time you are still awake."
After hearing this, Gu Xing's body shook unconsciously.
The fragrance of Karasawa Makoto's body spread toward Gu Xing like a vine that grew wantonly, wrapping around him tightly in an instant.
Gu Xing took a step back as if frightened. He was stunned for a while and said with a slight loss of grace: "I'm sorry, I can't do it."
After saying that, he bowed to Karasawa Makoto, turned around and left in a hurry.
His figure moved farther and farther in the snow, and soon turned into a black dot like an ant.
Makoto Karasawa stood quietly in the wind and snow, smiling and beautiful.
…
In the following days, Satomi and Chiyo were able to see how lively they were——
Makoto Karasawa began to visit Chiyo's Kaidan Coffee Bookstore frequently.
At first, she just acted as an ordinary guest, wearing a baseball cap and a mask, and hid in an inconspicuous corner looking for a book she liked to read.
When she arrived at the bookstore, she kept it secret of course from Gu Xing. Chiyo quietly led her in and walked in like a thief.
As she walked with her head buried in her chest, her heart was pounding. She was afraid of being discovered by Gu Xing, and also afraid of being discovered by the customers in the bookstore. She felt like having a secret secret meeting with her lover at the huge risk of being exposed and cast aside by movie fans.
.
Putting the hot coffee on the table, Karasawa Makoto peered through the gap between the bookshelf and the books at Gu Xing, who was constantly making various drinks, and looked at the girls who came to the coffee bookstore because of Gu Xing.
Chiyo brought her a plate of snacks.
She whispered: "You should treat me as an ordinary guest, so as not to be discovered."
Chiyo smiled and said: "The guests here are all here for Gu Xingjun, who would stare at you specially - you cover yourself up so tightly."
Karasawa Makoto looked around, and it seemed that this was indeed the case. She breathed a sigh of relief, and then snorted, "When I succeed, I will never let Gu Xingjun continue to betray his lust."
Chiyo pretended to put away the snacks and coffee, "Are you repaying kindness with enmity? My bookstore is no longer in business?"
"What are you afraid of?"
Karasawa Makoto blinked, "In the future, I will come to the bookstore more often to do autograph signings, do activities, etc. Isn't it much better than Gu Xingjun making coffee?"
Chiyo put the snacks and coffee back again, "Haha, that's true."
Karasawa Makoto stayed in the corner of the bookstore all morning like this, drinking coffee, eating snacks, and reading. When she got tired, she raised her head to look at Gu Xing through the gap, which was pleasing to the eye.
When it was almost noon, Gu Xingjun called Qiandai over to take the order for him.
Makoto Karasawa guessed that he had been busy for so long and it was time to go to the bathroom, so he waited there in advance. After seeing no one around, he took off his mask and pretended to put on makeup in front of the mirror outside the bathroom.
As soon as Gu Xing walked into the aisle leading to the bathroom, he recognized Karasawa Makoto at a glance.
He stood there stunned for a long time, then walked over hesitantly, "Why are you here?"
Makoto Karasawa put her head against the mirror, applied one last touch of makeup to her lips, then put away the lipstick and put it in her bag. She turned around and looked at Gu Xing and smiled: "I heard that this bookstore is very popular with young girls recently.
Welcome, I’m here specifically to see you.”
Gu Xing hummed speechlessly, and suddenly looked at Karasawa Makoto's hand, "You came in wearing a mask?"
Karasawa Makoto nodded.
Gu Xing said in confusion: "If you are wearing a mask, why do you need to put on lipstick?"
Karasawa Makoto opened her mouth, stared at Gu Xing for a long time, and then said: "I'm willing - you observe me quite carefully."
"No,"
Gu Xing looked around and subconsciously stood in front of Karasawa Makoto, "You'd better put on your mask quickly. If customers see it, my bookstore won't be able to bear it..."
Karasawa Makoto raised his head, stared at him, and whispered, "I've been here all morning."
"Where's Satomi?"
Gu Xing picked up the phone and dialed Rimi's number, "I'll ask her to take you to the second floor first."
Karasawa Makoto: "..."
