Izumi Toru scratched his head, a little embarrassed.
It obviously felt good before, but in the end, I only hit this doll, which was smaller than a slap.
Sakurai Naoko whispered softly: "I like this very much. It would be so embarrassing if I held such a big doll like Ruiko. I am already so old."
"My wife is very young."
"Stop making fun of me."
After saying that, Naoko Sakurai took the doll from Toru Iizumi.
Izumi Tetsu's heart skipped a beat.
Just now, the woman's fingers suddenly scratched the palm of her hand.
Is it an illusion?
Probably just accidentally...
Naoko Sakurai turned around and hid the doll.
Izumi Toru didn't see where she was hiding, but the bag containing her things was held by Sakurai Ruiko, and her yukata didn't seem to have pockets...
As if noticing Izumi Toru's surprise, Sakurai Naoko crossed her arms, feeling a little embarrassed.
But it was precisely this action that made Izumi Toru guess what...
His throat felt a little itchy, so he rubbed his neck and coughed.
"Ahem, um... let's go."
Amakusa Meiyi walked in front holding the doll and leaning on Izumi Toru's shoulder.
Sakurai Ruiko held the doll in one hand and followed Sakurai Naoko's arm with the other.
She wanted to leave. After all, it would be weird to follow Toru Izumi and Mei Amakusa.
But her mother didn't speak, Izumi Toru didn't say anything about separation, and Amakusa Mei didn't care. She could only look at the backs of the two people in front of her and pouted.
"Leizi, aren't you happy?"
Suddenly, my mother's voice sounded from my ears.
"Eh! I, that..." The girl glanced at Izumi Toru in front of her, bit her lower lip, and then she shook her head, "No, it's nothing."
Naoko Sakurai reached out her hand and rubbed her daughter's hair.
"Want some candy?"
"Um."
"Wait for me a moment."
With that said, Naoko Sakurai let go of her daughter's hand and walked towards the place where apple candies were sold.
"Wait! Mom! Be careful!"
Sakurai Ruiko stretched out her hand and found that her mother had been separated by the crowd.
She quickly squeezed through.
"Please give way! Please give way!"
Struggling to separate the crowd, Sakurai Ruiko grabbed her mother.
"Mom, don't run around! There are so many people, be careful! Don't let the baby..."
"Silence!"
Sakurai Naoko suddenly scolded her daughter.
Sakurai Ruiko opened her mouth and lowered her head aggrievedly.
"I, I'm just worried..."
The woman sighed, then took Sakurai Ruiko into her arms, and whispered: "Raiko, don't let others know about this kind of thing."
"Why?" Sakurai Ruiko was very confused.
"If others find out, they may use this matter to deal with Azheng. He is currently on the rise in his official career, so he cannot hold him back."
Upon hearing her mother mention her father, Sakurai Ruiko immediately frowned.
"Him? Why do you mention him? Why do you still care about him? He is just a big scumbag!"
"Anyway, after a while, I will stay at home and not go anywhere..."
"oh……"
Naoko Sakurai turned her head and said to the shopkeeper: "Please give me four pieces of apple candy."
After paying the money, Naoko Sakurai handed her daughter two copies.
"You can give one of these to Izumi-san."
Sakurai Ruiko's heart skipped a beat.
"Huh? Why do you want me to give it?! I, I don't!"
"Then you go give it to the girl next to Izumi-san. I'll give it to Izumi-san's share."
"Eh?!"
"What's wrong?" Sakurai Naoko asked with a smile.
Sakurai Ruiko felt a little regretful.
Although I am just sending candy, but I can say one more word...
No, don’t talk to him!
snort!
"No, it's nothing!"
"Um."
Because they were still tall, Izumi Toru noticed the whereabouts of Sakurai and his daughter.
He protected Mei Amakusa behind him and waved to Naoko Sakurai, who was looking for him.
When she saw Izumi Toru, the woman's eyes lit up and she immediately walked over with her daughter.
People were coming and going, and women were wearing wooden clogs, making it difficult to move forward. Izumi Tetsu couldn't stand it anymore.
"Mei Yi, stand here and wait for me for a while."
"Um."
Izumi Toru separated from the crowd and walked next to the petite Sakurai Ruiko and the frail Sakurai Naoko.
"Follow me."
Before Sakurai Ruiko could say anything, Sakurai Naoko responded first: "Yes."
The girl could only curl her lips.
She was pulled by her mother and followed Izumi Tetsu.
There are more and more people on both sides.
Izumi Tetsu's advancing figure is like a rock rushing in the current, which makes people feel very reassured.
Suddenly, her mother's faint voice made Sakurai Ruiko look sideways.
"Leizi, you have to find a boyfriend as soon as possible. Otherwise, I will..."
Sakurai Ruiko hurriedly interrupted her before she could finish listening.
"Mom! I-I'm not looking for a boyfriend!"
"Really?" Sakurai Naoko secretly pouted at Izumi Toru's back, "Isn't this also okay?"
Sakurai Ruiko lowered her head and muttered: "Mom, I won't tell you anymore!"
Sakurai Naoko stopped talking.
Arriving next to Amakusa Mei, Sakurai Ruiko immediately let go of her mother's hand.
"Amakusa-san, eat some candy."
"Ah, thank you!"
Amakusa Mei held the doll under her ribs and took the candy apple with her other hand.
The translucent red candies reflected the light emitted by the surrounding stalls like handicrafts, and the girl was reluctant to eat them.
Later, let’s eat his food...
Thinking like this, she looked at Izumi Toru, but found that his expression was a little strange.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Hearing Amakusa Mei's question, Izumi Toru shook his head.
"I just thought of something, it's nothing."
"oh……"
"Um."
The four of them continued to walk forward slowly.
Izumi Toru glanced at Naoko Sakurai beside him.
The candy apple he just got had teeth marks on it.
Moreover, she handed the candy apple to herself after carefully observing the difference.
That is to say...
At this moment, Naoko Sakurai turned her face and glanced at Izumi Toru.
"Izumi-san, is there anything strange about me?"
You are totally weird...
After silently reciting these words in his heart, Izumi Tetsu said: "It's not strange, on the contrary, it's very suitable."
"You mean the yukata?"
"The yukata is also very nice." He waved the candy in his hand, then bit off the part with the tooth marks, chewed it a few times and then swallowed it. He continued: "It's very sweet."
After hearing this, Naoko Sakurai also picked up the candy and took a small bite.
"Yes, really?"
"Um."
Sakurai Ruiko was walking when she suddenly heard Izumi Toru's words.
"Take pillow classmate, your yukata is very beautiful."
"Thank you..." After responding subconsciously, she realized, "Who is the pillow classmate, you bastard pervert!"
"Sorry, my pronunciation is not very standard."
"No matter how non-standard, [Sakurai] and [Pillow] shouldn't be pronounced incorrectly!"
Sakurai Ruiko opened her eyes wide and looked at Izumi Tetsu with a smile on her face angrily.
After a while, her face suddenly turned red.
"snort!"
The girl turned her head and ignored him.
The heart is pounding rapidly.
Don't smile at me, bastard!
Just relying on my good looks...
Bullying!
So, Izumi Toru, who successfully made the girl shy and dared not look back, reached out and took away the apple candy from the woman's hand.
"Eh?"
While he was wondering, Izumi Toru took a big bite at the small gap, and then handed over the candy in his hand.
After secretly glancing at her daughter, she hurriedly took it and carried it behind her back.
"Why don't you eat?" Izumi Toru asked.
"……oh."
The woman took out the candy from behind, looked at the gap on it, hesitated for a while, then carefully opened her mouth and bit it.
"Is it sweet?"
"...It's very, very sweet."
Pretending to speak calmly, the woman's face turned red.
