Raku Sakakihara came to the vicinity of the piano stage. The piano, which was originally very manic and intense, was standing there quietly, exuding a black tranquility. In contrast, Amami Kuriuri was constantly being talked to in the audience.<
/p>
Tianhai Jiuliuli is the kind of girl who is easy to talk to. If you say hello to her, you will at least get a response from her.
Sakakihara Raku also knows that it is impossible for a beautiful girl who combines talent, beauty, and fantasy to be unpopular.
He likes Jiuliuli.
Others will also like Jiuliuli.
The key is, her surname is Tianhai.
Those young men maintain their own identity and etiquette, and although they will not swarm around them, they will definitely express their wishes.
They first greeted Jiuliuli politely, and then used the so-called "common language" to start a topic about Jiuliuli.
As we chatted, we occasionally saw several gentlemen teasing each other.
Tianhai Jiuliuli faced this and kept smiling, even though she didn't really want to talk about these topics.
She wanted to leave here, but she couldn't.
"Sorry, please give way."
"Huh? Are you...?"
"Brother?"
When Amami Kuruuri saw Sakakibara Raku suddenly appear, he shouted casually.
As soon as Tianhai Jiuliuli called out his identity, everyone who was originally a little unhappy became softer.
"Hello, Jing Yixiu."
"Suga Kinji."
"Bosui Eriye."
"Sakakibara Raku." Sakakibara was happy to see the other party extending his hand to him, and he naturally shook it with his three peers.
These three gentlemen are very elegant, like they come from a big family.
"Sakakibara?" Iishiu wondered why his surname was not Tianhai.
"Kurouri and I are adopted brothers and sisters," Sakakibara took back his hand and smiled at several people. "Although I really don't want to disturb your conversation, my sister just finished a performance and needs to rest for a while. Why not wait until the dance starts?"
How about we discuss it further."
Tianhai Jiuliuli watched him stand in front of her.
The three people looked at each other.
Having said that, it seems that Miss Tianhai was a little unable to respond.
Iishiu was the first to react and apologized to Amami Kuriuri beside Sakakibara: "Sorry, we didn't think carefully."
The remaining two people reacted and said a few words.
Tianhai Jiuliuli kept saying it didn't matter, her voice was very gentle.
After saying a few polite words, Jing Yixiu straightened his posture and took a step forward. The Zhou Zheng suit on his body showed his temperament. He bent down in an invitation gesture:
"Although it's very rude, I admire Miss Tianhai's beauty and quality very much. I wonder if I can dance with you at the dance in ten minutes?"
He is very gentleman.
Jingyi, you guy!!
Kanji Suga and Eri Hsui were also behind, almost jumping in a hurry.
What if we agreed to chat for a while and then work on our own abilities based on our good feelings?!!
For the three of them, regardless of their own wishes, it is a good thing to make friends with the eldest lady of the Tianhai family, which will be helpful to the entire family.
Tianhai Family is a large pharmaceutical group and one of the top chaebols in the country.
Of course it would be better if you can get married!
Both the parents and the old man at home like to hear and see it.
The key point is that Tianhai Jiuliuli is extremely beautiful. If we can date her and go on together, it will be a win-win situation!
Winning her favor is the first step.
——Not only Ii Hide, but also Kanji Suga and Usui Etoshi also have this idea.
Tianhai Jiuliuli is a little embarrassed. She doesn't want to accept it, and it doesn't seem good to refuse. After all, the other person is so polite.
"I..."
"I-san, if you invite me to dance, you can wait until the dance starts. Now I think it's better to let Jiuri rest for a while, what do you think?" Raku Sakakibara said with a confident smile.
Raku Sakakibara, the "eldest brother-in-law", has spoken.
Seeing that the opportunity was about to be missed, Suga Chikaji and Usui Eri also hurriedly agreed, saying repeatedly:
"Yes, yes!"
"Sakakibara-san is right. Ii, please let Miss Amami rest for a while."
"Jing Yi, you are too blind."
"That's right, even if you don't understand piano, you should understand the difficulty of that piece of music."
"It's almost hot."
You two guys...
Jing Yixiu's eyelids twitched wildly.
This is about to succeed!
Kanji crossed his arms with one hand, and said as if he was standing on a moral high ground with a hint of reminder: "Ii, you have to understand that the most important thing for a gentleman is not to pester a lady."
Eri Hsui nodded in agreement: "If you act like this, it will make Sakakibara-san and Miss Amami have a lower opinion of you."
"As a man, you must be self-aware and know when to walk away."
"It would be more appropriate for Miss Tianhai to rest first at this time."
......
One sentence from each of them made Jing Yixiu unable to dismount.
There was no other way. After he expressed his apology to Amami Kuruuri and Sakakibara Raku, he took the initiative to say goodbye and leave, saying that he would come back later and asked Miss Amami to show her respect.
Then, Sakakihara Raku watched the three young masters blaming each other and leaving.
"Thank you, brother." Tianhai Jiuliuli raised his eyes.
To be honest, I still vividly remember Jiuliuli’s dreamy performance just now. Her confident and beautiful appearance on the stage made people feel a lot of distance.
At this time, she called herself brother again, which made Sakakihara Raku feel a little unreal.
Seeing that she did seem a little tired, Sakakihara Raku felt a little embarrassed to say the invitation to dance together.
"Go back and sit down first and take a rest."
"Okay."
......
Sofa seating area.
Amami Kuruuri and Sakakihara Suzu sat together, and Suzu brought her some fruit to eat. Suzu was also very interested in her playing the piano and wondered if she could learn it.
"Where's my aunt?"
"She went to the toilet."
Tianhai Qimingyue lowered her head, put the sliced dragon fruit into her mouth, her sky-blue eyes were like the broken ice of the sea in winter, so deep that no trace of emotion could be seen.
Why did Sakakihara Raku suddenly feel that she had become a little colder?
Fortunately, she is still willing to talk to him.
"So, brother still hasn't invited sister to dance?"
"I think she must be very tired after playing Profeykov's piece just now. It would be inappropriate to invite her now, as it would be against the gentlemanly ethos."
"Brother, you have thought carefully. Also, it's Prokofiev." The Seven Bright Moons in the Sky did not look at him.
"Haha, I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with piano music." Sakakihara heard something wrong with her tone. Logically speaking, the little devil shouldn't be so cold, "Nana Mingyue, what's wrong with you?" p>
"No, brother, don't think too much."
We spent five minutes together without any dialogue.
Tianhai Qimingyue suddenly raised the phone with the screen lit up to him, pointed the time at him and said, "There are only five minutes until the dance. If the brother doesn't make an appointment with the sister in advance, many people will come to see her."
"Then it's really time for me to formally invite..." Sakakihara Raku secretly glanced at Amami Kuruuri's smiling face.
It is exactly the same as Qi Mingyue, but full of warmth and kindness.
Tianhai Qimingyue caught the look in his eyes as he looked at his sister, his expression could not tell what she was thinking:
"Before I officially go, I want to hear from my brother what it is like to have a crush on my sister."
"What feelings... It's very simple. I will be happy because I see her, and I will be happy because she smiles at me."
"Nothing else?"
"There must be some, but I may not be able to describe it."
"What will happen if my brother is rejected by my sister?"
"I will be disappointed for a while... Being rejected by a girl still hurts my self-confidence. I will probably increase my daily 20 kilometers to 40 kilometers a day."
Sakakihara smiled bitterly, "I'm still running alone...the more I run, the lonelier I get."
Tianhai Qimingyue didn't hear a comfortable answer and didn't want to talk anymore:
"Okay, brother, go and find your sister to dance alone. I'll cover for you here at Ling, saying that you took the initiative to be your dance partner so that my sister wouldn't be harassed. Also, don't invite your sister in front of Ling."
Sakakihara Raku is still clear about these.
But...
"Qi Mingyue... why did you help me so much?"
"Because of the agreement, there is also my new potato chip dish. If you are in a bad mood, the dishes you cook will be a little bit worse." Tianhai Qimingyue looked at him with deep eyes, "I am not doing this for you, don't get me wrong.
”
Tianhai Qimingyue's tone suddenly became very cold, as if she was deliberately alienating herself.
Sakakihara Raku didn't care about her expression.
"Even if it's not for me, I still want to say thank you."
"..."
"I'm looking for Jiuliuli."
"Well..."
Amami Nanami watched as Sakakibara Raku went to the other side to find Jiureli in person, and then asked her out to talk alone.
The two of them reached the blind spot, and Tianhai Qimingyue naturally withdrew his sight.
Qi Mingyue has long been determined in her heart that no matter what the reason is, her sister will agree to her brother's invitation to dance.
However, when Amami Nanamigetsu saw Raku Sakakibara leading her sister to the stage, her heart was somewhat complicated.
......
Five minutes later, the dance started as scheduled.
The rhythm of the music became soothing and comfortable. On the magnificent dance floor, people intertwined.
Sakakihara Raku did not expect that Jiureli would agree to his invitation so easily.
Now she is standing in front of him, and the delicate beauty of her little face can make people blush to the point of looking away.
Not to mention looking directly into her eyes and holding her hand.
Tianhai Jiuliuli smiled and said: "Brother, don't be nervous, it's my first time to dance ballroom dancing too."
"Really?" Sakakihara Raku was slightly surprised.
"Well, I only tried to dance with Qi Mingyue in the past. When we attended similar dances before, no one would invite us because we were too young. Okay, brother, please extend your hand. Boys have to take the initiative.
OK."
"Oh, okay."
Amami Kuruuri speaks politely, but when Sakakibara grabs her hand, she still blushes a little bit.
Sakakihara was pleased to see that she was a little restrained, so he took the initiative a little bit, slowly opening her palm with his fingers, and then inserted his fingers along the gaps between her fingers.
Palm and palm fit together.
Wait.
She said this was her first time dancing.
Doesn't it mean that this is also the first time that a boy pinches your hand?
Sakakibara realized this, and when he looked at Jiuriuri again, her face was already red and cute.
Even though she regards herself as her brother, in fact...does she still feel embarrassed because she is a boy?
Her fingers are slender and delicate, and the feeling of interlacing their fingers seems to connect their hearts together.
Sakakihara Raku didn't even want to think about anything at this time, he just wanted to be in contact with her hand for a while longer.
Nanimingyue is right, the feeling of Jiu Liuli's little hands is very similar to hers, but based on Sakakihara Raku's personal experience, Jiu Liuli's is warmer and softer.
It fits her character very well.
In such close movements, both of them smelled each other's breath.
"Jiuliuli, are you ready?"
"Well..."
As the soothing music began to play, Sakakihara tried to bring the dreamy girl in front of him onto the dance floor. His outstretched left hand actively led her to let her move to his own rhythm.
Step after step, eyes looking into eyes, the contact between ten fingers and heart becomes clearer in the palm of the hand.
Sakakihara Raku can even feel the softness of Amami Kuriuri being held by him, her small face, soft flaxen hair, the girl's petite collarbone, and the white lines in the black and gray dress and breast protector.
The smell of hormones makes people smell the beauty of young girls.
Everything about the girl is so beautiful that people forget to breathe.
Men advance to the left, women retreat to the right, women advance to the side, men retreat to the side, men advance horizontally, and women move together...
Apart from the piano accompaniment, it seems that there is only the sound of breathing caressing the ears, and the fragrance of a young girl lingering on the tip of the nose.
Unlike Nanami Nanami, when the dance progressed, Sakakibara Raku could clearly find that she was embarrassed to look at him, and instead turned her gaze to the two people's clasped hands to cover up her shy mood.
The younger sister who is usually generous and confident can also be shy... Sakakihara Raku is convinced of this.
But Tianhai Jiuliuli is obviously not the kind of girl who is only shy.
She quickly adapted to this look, regained her confidence, looked into his eyes, and showed confidence in her graceful dance steps.
Because of the proper grasp and necessary separation of dance, the movements between the two people do not appear to be very ambiguous, but simply fit and appropriate.
The girl he had a crush on was at such a close distance and still holding her hand. This kind of throbbing heart made Sakakibara want to say sincerely and proactively in her ear... I like you. But he understands that now is not the time to confess!
Now in her mind, I only have a slight favorable impression, a little bit of favorable impression.
What is more, she is grateful to herself as an elder brother.
I have to behave better in front of her.
Let her good impression of him slowly rise, and then wait until it is all right, and decide the outcome directly!
He still remembered that Qi Mingyue said that Jiu Liuli liked people who made her feel dependent.
Sakakihara took a breath and smiled confidently at Amami Kuruuri:
"Jiuliuli, can you relax a little more? Leave it to me and I will guide you."
Tianhai Jiuliuli met his gaze, and inexplicably felt a bit of boyish handsomeness on his face.
"No, no problem." She agreed.
She began to relax her rhythm, relax her arm strength, and let the Sakakihara music on her hand actively pull her.
As the dance steps swayed back and forth, she became more and more aware of the stability conveyed in the palms of her hands, with the feeling that she was dancing...
This paragraph becomes more and more consistent, and the more perfect cooperation goes straight into the soul.
The guests watching around couldn't help but applaud the two of them.
......
"You clearly said you can't dance, but you can still dance so well." Suzu Sakakihara only glanced at the dance floor, then she was dissatisfied and stuck her fork into the steak, and ate it in one bite.
Tianhai Qimingyue didn't speak during this period. She used a spoon to pick out the watermelon seeds one by one, and so on.
She found Suzu Sakakihara sitting across from her, and she mumbled as if she was holding her breath:
"Aren't you the one who taught me how to dance?"
"It seems that sister-chan is not stupid."
"I'm super smart!"
The Seven Bright Moons in the Sky Sea smiled without saying a word. Of course, it was just a faint chuckle, hard to see the trace.
"How about I discuss something with you?" Sakakihara Suzu tried to ask.
"Sister-chan, what do you want to discuss with me?" Tianhai Qimingyue asked her identity.
Qimingyue... so abominable!
I will only call myself my sister in front of myself.
Sister, sister, sister...
Although she is an older sister...but she is also the older sister of a bad woman!
That day, I even secretly touched Jiuliuli’s thigh with my brother’s hand!
Just to counter his provocation against her.
It’s too abominable!
Sakakihara Suzu decided not to think about this and collected her emotions:
"From now on, don't bother me making lunch for each of us... It's quite troublesome for him to cook the taste of the three of us by himself."
"That's not okay. I only like to eat potato chips and fried rice."
"But Qi Mingyue, you have to think about my brother! He is very tired!"
"Sister-chan, are you caring about your brother?"
"Yes...yes!" Suzu Sakakihara hesitated for a second, then put her hands on her hips, "I just care about him, I am his sister! I don't care about him, he is just a poor guy who can only live alone."<
/p>
"So sister-chan, have you ever thought that your brother can actually live well alone?"
"He can live a good life, but for him... it is definitely not as good as now. He also needs me. I am his biological sister, and I understand him! This is what he said to me personally!"
Suzu-chan's cute look made interest reappear on Amami Qimingyue's face.
"What are you doing?" Sakakihara Suzu saw her hand reaching out and quickly avoided it.
"I want to pinch my sister-chan's face to see if it's that soft." Tianhai Qimingyue overlapped her hands in front of her skirt and returned to her intellectual and steady look.
"I, my face is not for pinching! Of course, if you agree to my request, I can touch it for you, just once."
"I agreed."
"Really?"
"I don't lie."
Sakakihara Suzu must be unwilling to be pinched by others, but...but...
It’s all Smelly Lele’s fault!
You have to thank me properly!
For you, I even sold out my appearance!
Sakakibara Suzu sat a little closer, and then Amami Nanamigyue's hand immediately pinched her face.
"So soft." Tianhai Qimingyue pinched the flesh of her cheek between her thumb and index finger.
"Okay, okay! Just as promised." Suzu Sakakihara quickly opened her hand and sat back.
Tianhai Qimingyue found it interesting and patted the seat next to her, "Sister-chan, sit over here."
"What for?"
"Let me experience what it's like to be a sister."
"No, you and I are not going to fight!"
"Sister-chan wants to reduce the burden on brother, right?"
"Humph, you have already agreed, you can't go back on it."
"I just agreed to cancel. I didn't say that I can't apply to my brother again. He loves his sister so much. As long as he shows a weak side to him, he will immediately agree to his sister's request. I am also my brother's sister now."<
/p>
"No, no, no, no! You are too cunning, too cunning!" Sakakihara Suzu's eyes widened, and she protested with a bulging face.
"..."
Tianhai Qimingyue didn't speak, she just tilted her head slightly, and then patted the sofa cushion next to her skirt.
Sakakihara Suzu turned away and then looked back, her eyes dodging several times in a row...
She is hesitating.
All, all because of that smelly old man!
She moved over with great reluctance.
Then, Tianhai Qimingyue reached out and hugged her from behind, pressing his face against hers.
