Even though we were shopping together, the dominant position was still those few people.
Amami Kururi and Miss Uto were picking out clothes in front of them, and Sakakihara Raku, as an existing model, had to accompany them to try on them one by one.
Nao Yoshihara and Suzu Sakakihara were sitting in the rest area of the store, eating the free refreshments provided by the clerk.
While drinking tea, Yoshiwara Nao discovered that Sakakihara Suzu would deliberately avoid the people choosing clothes over there.
"It seems like Suzu-chan, you and Ruri-chan haven't known each other for a long time, right?"
"Well, it's not too long."
"Just now, I noticed that you were secretly looking at your brother."
"No..." Suzu Sakakihara shook her head while sitting upright.
Ms. Yoshihara was not in a hurry. Some things had to be guided slowly. She picked up the teacup, took a sip of the hot tea, and then asked: "Speaking of which, I just found out not long ago that you have an older brother, Suzu-chan. Do you have a brother?"
It seems like you are deliberately hiding him?"
"No, it's just that my brother doesn't come to the office often..."
"Lingjiang, when it rained that day when I came to the company, I saw that your brother's shoulders were wet, and he was very serious about your work. After the recording ended that day, he asked me a lot about you.
I think your brother should care about you very much."
Perhaps it was a pain point in her heart that was touched. When Sakakihara Suzu heard this, she rubbed the teacup in her hand with both hands. She looked into her own purple eyes in the light reflection of the tea, and then nodded gently.
"In your heart, Suzu-chan, what do you think of Brother You?"
"It's...ok..."
"Is it just okay?"
"I don't know either..."
Miss Yoshihara clearly saw the hesitation in Sakakihara Suzu's eyes, and said with a smile: "You don't like your brother, do you?"
"No!" Sakakihara Suzu answered very quickly this time and suddenly raised her head.
"Ling-chan seems to have misunderstood something. I mean the relationship between brother and sister."
"...He is my brother."
"Well, as the only daughter of the Yoshihara family, I have always envied people who have older brothers... Suzu-chan secretly told me, did your brother carry you on your back when you were a child?"
Seeing Yoshihara-senpai's smile, Sakakihara Suzu, who had always been reserved and confident outside, thought of those things in her childhood, and her face turned a little red.
"Of course there is, of course." Sakakihara Suzu replied in a softer voice.
Yes, yes, that’s the expression.
Suzu-chan is so cute!
"So, Sakakibara-kun has been very loving since he was a child. He must be a good brother. My sister really envies Suzu-chan."
"Has Suzu-chan ever been in love?"
"No." Sakakihara Suzu shook her head lightly.
"Do you think your brother is handsome?"
The ugliest!
Sakakihara Suzu cursed in her heart, but she couldn't say this in front of her seniors.
"Brother is quite handsome."
"Yeah, although Sakakibara-kun is not a top-notch handsome guy, he still has the temperament. How should I put it... he feels very comfortable."
"My brother is a member of the archery club at school, and he is very powerful."
"Learning archery?! No wonder."
Yoshihara Nao first used chat to get closer to Sakakibara Suzu, and occasionally interspersed a sentence about her impression of Sakakibara-kun. Until Sakakihara Suzu completely relaxed her vigilance, Yoshihara Nao hooked her teeth and suddenly interspersed a sentence between normal topics: "Suzuki-chan, do you like you Sakakibara-kun?"
"No. Brother is just an older brother, but there is still love between brother and sister."
Sakakihara Suzu's millisecond response made Ms. Yoshihara pause for a moment.
It seems that I have been prepared for it.
Next, Ms. Yoshihara relaxed and tried to guide again, but Suzu Sakakihara became wary and could answer any questions without leakage.
They show the feelings of ordinary siblings.
Suzu-chan, it seems like she really isn’t a brother-in-law?
It’s just because of what happened when I was young that I have a little respect for Sakakibara-kun.
Ms. Yoshihara somewhat believed in this answer, but she always felt that something was wrong.
Suzu Sakakihara smiled on her face, but she was screaming in her heart.
Yoshihara-senpai! Stop asking! Stop asking!!
At this time, several people also bought clothes and walked towards the two people sitting in the rest area to rest.
"Have you bought it yet?"
"Well," Uto Yaesame said with a smile while squeezing Sakakibara Raku's shoulders behind him, "Originally I said I would only buy two sets, but I feel that there are a lot of good clothes in this store, and Ruri-chan completely agrees, so,
I just bought a little more."
"How many sets did you buy?" Nao Yoshihara asked.
"Five sets! Including sportswear and various casual clothes. I also bought shoes. All the money was paid by Xiao Liuli."
Sakakihara sighed: "I already told you that you don't need to buy so many."
"Ruri-chan really cares about my brother."
"It's nothing." Tianhai Jiuliuli showed a smile that didn't make people feel lonely at all.
"So Sakakibara-kun is also very happy."
Sakakihara smiled and said: "After all, I bought so many things, and I didn't spend a penny... It seems inappropriate to say I'm unhappy."
"Hahaha, Sakakibara-kun has a bit of humor!"
Stinky brother...
Sakakibara Suzu glanced at Sakakibara Raku, who was standing next to Amami Kuruuri with a smile on her face, and the uncomfortable feeling at the beginning came to mind again.
......
Downstairs in a shopping mall where people are busy, the three of them said goodbye to their two seniors and took the subway home.
Since she was following behind, Sakakihara Suzu watched the two of them get on the subway first.
By chance, there were one empty seat and two empty seats on both sides of the subway. Sakakihara Suzu thought that Sakakibara Raku would sit directly with Amami Kuruuri. Unexpectedly, after Sakakibara Raku and Amami Kuriuri said a few words, they deliberately waited.
Got her.
"What for?"
"Why don't you and Jiuliuli sit together?"
"Why?"
Sakakibara looked at his sister's eyes for a while, then said, "A Suzu, you don't seem to be very happy recently. In the past, you would have agreed with an indifferent expression, 'Okay.'"
"I..."
Sakakihara Suzu was speechless for a moment, then turned her head away, remained silent for a while, lowered her head and muttered: "I'm a little unhappy."
"Because of Jiuliuli and Qimingyue?"
"Of course...they suddenly came to my house. Not only did you not resist them, but you also cooked for them every day!"
Sakakihara raised his eyebrows: "Are you...jealous?"
"Who! Who would be jealous of you!"
"Don't react so violently, Ah Ling."
"Well..." Suzu Sakakihara, who was holding the subway ring, lowered her head again.
"Here, take this."
Sakakihara Suzu glanced sideways at the two canvas bags he handed over, then raised her eyes and asked him: "What are these?"
"The clothes, I bought them specially for you."
"Didn't Jiuliuli buy you clothes? Why buy them for me."
"She bought me clothes, but it doesn't affect my buying clothes for you. Take them, the coat and your shoes."
Sakakihara Suzu looked down at the two white canvas bags again.
"The clothes I bought must be ugly..."
She muttered, but still took the canvas bag he handed her in her hand and held it tightly.
The subway was shaking while it was running, and the two bags in my hands were shaking slightly.
As the subway arrives at the station, many passengers get on and off the train.
"Brother."
"What?"
"Didn't we agree that we are on the same front? Their surname is Tianhai and our surname is Sakakihara."
"I know...but we are a family now, and we shouldn't divide these things." Sakakihara looked at her, "Do you hate Jiu Liuli and Qi Mingyue?"
"I'm not really annoying, I just feel...uneasy. I seem to see them everywhere. Brother, you not only cook for them, but also talk and laugh..."
She rarely smiles when she talks to me. After thinking about this sentence, Sakakihara Suzu didn’t say it after all.
"Bing." Raku Sakakihara stared at the flashing darkness outside the subway window.
"Do you know why I care about you so much?"
"Because you are my brother..."
"Yes, because I am your brother... I didn't care when you cried and fussed when you were a child. Even if you said something about me that you disliked, I wouldn't care either. Because I know you are the one who will ask for things on my back.
The sister who is looking for her mother is the sister who saw toys on the roadside and wanted me to buy them for you.
"Dad left when I was five years old. You were only three years old at that time. Not only did our family not have any savings, we also owed a lot of debt. Every time the debt collectors knocked on our door
Door, I can feel that you are scared. You have nothing to hold on to, so you can only hold me... It was a very difficult time, and it was all thanks to my mother who managed to survive, relying on the poverty of my hometown.
Relatives borrowed money from here and there, and then paid it back little by little.
"I still remember that you really wanted to eat meat, but your family couldn't afford it, so I had to lie to you that the tofu I fried was meat... We haven't all been through those days."
"What are you talking about..."
"What I want to say is, don't be too resistant when faced with uncomfortable situations. Jiu Liuli and Qi Mingyue are actually very good people. If you get along seriously, I believe you can become very good friends.
"Since my mother has chosen to remarry Uncle Tianhai...then we must respect them appropriately."
Having said this, Sakakibara paused for a second and let out a long sigh of relief.
"Besides, uncle Tianhai didn't treat us badly...he got an expensive house and gave us gifts. He didn't treat us badly in terms of pocket money. Although we basically don't need it now, it can be seen that
He wants to work hard to build a good relationship with us."
Sakakihara Suzu: "But this week, I haven't seen Uncle Amami very often. My mother is too, too busy."
Sakakihara Raku really has nothing to say on this point.
Tianhai Maodian rarely goes home in the afternoon, and when he does, he always wears a crisp suit.
He is very kind to his family. He doesn't smoke or drink. He just likes to read newspapers and often wears a pair of glasses and can read all afternoon.
Raku Sakakihara also visited his study room at home. There is a table and a wall of books. On it are not only the laws of the country, but also the laws of other countries, and the texts used are not translated.
Last weekend I saw Uncle Tianhai working from home. His serious attitude made him subconsciously not want to disturb him.
He is a successful person who makes people feel pressured.
"Brother, do you think Mom married Uncle Tianhai because of his status?"
"It's probably more because of his knowledge...Uncle Tianhai is a top student from Dongda University."
"Dongda...Then why does he fall in love with our mother?"
Sakakibara smiled and said, "Have you noticed that our mother always wears a pair of glasses no matter what?"
Sakakibara Raku turned his head and glanced at Amami Kuruuri who was a little sleepy behind him, and said to Sakakihara Suzu beside him: "Call Kuruuri up and get ready to get off."
"Brother."
"Hmm."
"You're right, I shouldn't be willful..."
"It's okay, sometimes you are cute if you are more willful."
"Then I will try to get in touch with Jiuliuli and the others?"
"This is a good thing."
"Then you won't be partial, will you?"
"Of course I will, I will favor whoever is obedient."
"Stinky Lele."
"What?!"
"Stinky Lele!"
Sakakibara smiled and said: "Okay, okay, you still have a lot of homework to do when you go home. Don't ask me to help you again."
"It's up to you to take care of it!" Suzuki Sakakihara said with a face, "Also! I will be going to the recording studio in the afternoon this Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, so don't disturb me if you have nothing to do!"
"Yeah, yeah, I got it, I got it."
Although she knew that Raku Sakakihara was deliberately perfunctory, Raku Sakakihara still looked angry.
Stinky Lele, it must be Stinky Lele!
......
In the living room, Amami Nanami was sitting on the sofa reading a book. She saw Suzu Sakakihara who was the first to enter and then locked herself in her bedroom.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"My sister also took my sister-chan shopping?"
"No, we met by chance in the mall."
As soon as Keke discovered that Jiuliuli had returned home, she immediately waggled her tail and ran up to her, shouting excitedly at her.
"My sister took her brother to buy clothes, right?"
"Yes." Tianhai Jiuliuli knelt down on his knees, smiled and touched Coco's head.
"That's it." Amami Nanami's delicate eyebrows stayed at Sakakihara Suzu's closed door for a few seconds.
......
As soon as Sakakihara Suzu returned to her room, she lay directly on her bed.
She looked at the ceiling and kept recalling what happened today.
First, he mistakenly thought that Yoshihara-senpai had fished out Sakakibara Raku, and then he followed him out, but he didn’t expect that it was Kuruuri who asked him out to buy clothes...
It was obviously just a normal shopping for clothes, but Sakakibara Suzu felt a little irritated when she thought of Sakakibara Raku's appearance.
In addition, Jiuliuli was holding her clothes and gesticulating in front of him...it was even more unpleasant to watch.
Suzu Sakakihara looked at the ceiling and felt a little irritated. She got up and grabbed the headphones next to the computer, connected them to her mobile phone, and then continued to lie on the bed and listen to music.
She scrolls through Twitter, where she has 6 or 7 thousand followers.
I want to look for something inside, but as I browse, my mind remains blank.
The scene in the flashback is always the way the smelly old man held an umbrella for himself, his shoulders getting wet, and the way he carried him several kilometers to the hospital when he was a child...
Suzu Sakakihara turned off her phone, put it on her chest, grabbed the rabbit doll beside the bed, held its head and murmured:
"Why are you so nice to me?"
"..." The rabbit doll always has a cute expression with narrowed eyes.
"..."
Time passed slowly, and Sakakihara Suzu lay down for a while, then quickly took off her headphones, stood up, found the two canvas bags just now, took out the clothes and shoes inside, and put them on.
A casual jacket, beige student sweater, light-colored miniskirt, and a pair of sports running shoes with blue on the left and red on the right.
Suzu Sakakihara looked at herself with short hair in the mirror, pinched her little face, and murmured:
"It should be no worse than Jiuliuli and the others."
But as soon as the idea came to her mind, she quickly shook her head and put aside these miscellaneous thoughts.
No, how can I compare myself with the two of them!
