Chapter 44 Worrying, suffering, praying... [Happy New Year everyone]
"Yuko, when will the surgery be performed?" Jinguji Kiyohime asked as she pushed Asuki China's wheelchair.
"The doctor said that it will take a long time before the operation can be performed, but I can already feel hot and cold." Asazuki Qianna said obediently.
"Yes," Jinguji Kiyohime nodded, then turned the wheelchair so that Asatsuki Qianna looked at the heavy snow outside the eaves.
"Is it okay to watch the snow here?"
"good."
"Will it be cold?"
Asazuki Qianna shook her head, "It's not cold, it's very warm."
There was a thick blanket covering her legs, and several layers of scarves were wrapped around her neck by Izumi Toru. Asazuki Qianna's face was flushed at the moment.
Jinguji Kiyohime let go of the wheelchair and rubbed her hands.
She felt a little cold.
At this time, a pair of warm hands covered the back of her hands.
The warmth in Izumi Tetsu's palms made the girl feel warm in her heart.
She leaned back slightly and leaned against his chest.
Asazuki Qianna opened her eyes wide and looked at the heavy snow falling outside the eaves.
She had never seen such heavy snow before, and her eyes were sparkling.
"Yuko, do you like Izumi-kun?"
Qianzuki Qianna nodded without looking back.
"I like it! My favorite!"
"Then, I will marry him in the future."
Asatsuki Qianna's body stiffened.
She turned around cautiously, raised her eyes to glance at Izumi Toru, and then hurriedly lowered her eyes.
"I...I, I just...just be my girlfriend...even if I don't get married or anything...I, it doesn't matter to me
......."
"Then, do you want to be Izumi-kun's bride?"
Qianzuki Qianna lowered her head and said shyly: "...I think, I think..."
"Well, let your sister be your officiant in the future."
"Sister?" Asatsuki Qianna raised her head and looked at Asuzuki Hongyin with some confusion, "I, do I have a sister?"
There was such a memory of Mohu in her mind.
A woman older than her kept looking at her tenderly.
That one should be my sister...
"Yes, you have been separated for many years. Izumi-kun has been looking for her since she found out about it, and she just found her recently. However, you can't see her for the time being. Your sister will definitely feel distressed when she sees that you have broken legs.
You cried. After the operation, when you can stand up, can we go see her again?" Jinguji Kiyohime bent down and asked in a low voice.
Although she wanted to see her sister immediately, Jinguji Kiyohime's words convinced Asatsuki China.
It's really not suitable for me to meet my sister like this.
So, she nodded seriously.
"good!"
Izumi Toru has already guessed who the "sister" mentioned by Jinguji Kiyohime is.
On the one hand, I was helpless at her bad taste, and on the other hand, I was a little worried.
Asuki China was disappointed with Hoshino Haruka's behavior, so she took the initiative to close her heart.
If I see her again, will it awaken her bad memories?
But then I thought about it, by then Hoshino Haruka should have turned into what Asazuki Bene and Asatsuki China wanted most, so that seemed good.
Except, that wedding that won't happen...
At that time, I think I should sit in a cold and quiet shrine and look up to the gods.
Jinguji Kiyohime couldn't help but smile from the corner of her eyes just imagining Hoshino Haruka officiating the wedding of Asatsuki China and Izumi Toru.

It must be very interesting.
However, when she thought of losing the blessing of the gods and becoming ugly, the smile on the girl's face suddenly disappeared.
She feels a little difficult to breathe now.
In order to prevent Izumi Tetsu from noticing anything strange, she bit her lower lip hard.
"Izumi-kun."
"Um?"
"For the next time, because of the matters at the shrine, I can't accompany you for the time being."
Izumi Tetsu's heart suddenly trembled.
"Ah, that's it..."
The disappointment on his face made the girl almost want to cry.
Jinguji Kiyohime stretched out her hand, touched his face, and said with a smile: "It's just these few days. After the New Year, I will have plenty of time to spend with you. Don't show it like this. Just be happy, okay?"
Izumi Tetsu rubbed her palm.
"Well, see you after the New Year."
Jinguji Kiyohime rubbed Asuki Chiana's head again, smiled at her, and then turned and left.
She could feel that Izumi Toru's eyes were always on her...
After walking around the corner, the girl finally couldn't help it and covered her eyes.
You shouldn't see him. The more you see him, the more reluctant you are to leave.
So sad, so sad...
Igarashi Mika walked out of the snow holding an umbrella.
"Do you regret it?"
Jinguji Kiyohime sniffed, then wiped her tears, shook her head, and said resolutely: "I don't regret it!"
"Then why are you crying?"
The girl's mouth dropped, and she immediately threw herself into her arms and cried, "It's so sad, Yuhua, I can't let him go..."
Igarashi Mika gently patted her friend's back and murmured in her heart:
Izumi Toru has no regrets either.
Pushing Asatsuki Qianna, who didn't know when she fell asleep, back to the room, she carried her to the bed and covered her with a quilt. Izumi Toru hesitated for a moment and kissed her forehead.
"Sorry, the wedding is temporarily unavailable..."
The woman who was already asleep could not hear his words.
In the dream, there was a young man holding flowers in his hands and kneeling down to her under the cherry blossom tree.
Izumi Toru found Igarashi Mika, who was making snow alone.
Thick snow fell on the white down jacket.
At first glance, it seemed as if she was wearing clothes made of snow and praying in the snow.
Izumi Toru held an umbrella and walked to her side, blocking the falling snowflakes.
Then, he lowered his head and said, "It's rare for you to be so stupid."
The girl took off the little snowman's head and smashed it into Izumi Tetsu's face.
Snapped!
Snowballs exploded in Izumi Toru's face.
Izumi was stunned for a moment.
Before he could react, the girl prepared herself for a long time, and even some snowballs that had been buried in the snow hit Izumi Toru one by one.
I wanted to ask the girl what she was going to do, but looking at her red eyes, Izumi Toru gave up.
He held the umbrella and let the girl squatting on the ground vent some emotions.
All the snowballs at hand were lost, and the girl finally stopped.
Izumi Toru then asked: "Have you calmed down?"
"No, I will never calm down."
"Then do you want to continue? I can help you make snowballs."
"No, my hands are cold."
Igarashi Mika stood up and shook her red hands.
"Want to help warm your hands?"
Igarashi Mika thought for a while, then nodded.
"That's fine."
After saying that, she put her cold hands into his shirt and placed them on his waist.
The sudden stimulation made Izumi Tetsu tremble all over.
"hiss!"
"You said you wanted to warm your hands."
"Yes, I, I didn't refuse either."
Because the girl's hands were too cold, Izumi Toru's voice was trembling.
Igarashi Mika didn't speak, just waiting for the temperature of his skin to warm her stiff fingers.
From a distance, the two looked like they were hugging each other.
After a while.
"Izumi Tetsu."
"Um?"
"You promised me that you would never take that step with Qingji."
"Feel sorry."
Hearing Igarashi Mika mention this matter again, Izumi Toru didn't know what to say other than apologizing.
The girl suddenly pinched the soft flesh of his waist angrily and twisted it twice.
"What's the use of apologizing? Tell me!"
Izumi grimaced in pain.
"Tell me! What's the use of apologizing now!"
Igarashi Mika twisted harder, and her voice became angry.
After a moment of silence, Izumi Toru smiled and said: "Don't worry, as long as my plan succeeds, nothing will happen to Qingji."
"That's how I..."
As if she realized that she had said something she shouldn't have said, Igarashi Mika immediately fell silent.
"That's it?" Izumi Toru asked.
"Nothing at all."
The girl grabbed the paper umbrella from his hand and pushed him hard before turning and leaving.
After staggering two steps, Izumi Toru steadied himself.
Standing in the snow, Izumi Toru thought of Igarashi Mika's cold little hands just now, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
You are angry because you are worried about me.
Then I was very happy.
"Hey, Igarashi, that's my umbrella, give it back to me!"
Hearing the shout from behind, the girl stopped in her tracks.
