"Good morning, Shiraishi-san. Why are you free to come over today?"
Xia Zhi was forced to say these words. If she directly called "Lihua", then Xia Zhi would probably be in trouble. When Xia Meng turned around to observe her again, Xia Zhi frantically gave her a
With a wink, Shiraishi Lihua, who was still a little surprised and sad, thought quickly and quickly understood what Xia Zhi meant, and a calm expression replaced the confusion on her face.
"Because I went shopping with my mother and came to this area, my mother asked me to bring some snacks I bought from the station to Xia Zhijun. Although the quantity is not a lot, the snacks are very good."
Shiraishi Rika gave a brief explanation, and then stood there very quietly, which was in sharp contrast to when Tachibana Aya came over just now. She was probably waiting for Xia Zhi to introduce to her this person who looked very similar to him.
Why did the girl appear here? As for who she was, Shiraishi Lihua had already roughly guessed it.
Shiraishi Lihua was about to say hello to Xia Meng first, but Xia Meng turned around and kept staring at Xia Zhi. The suspicious look did not diminish at all because of Shiraishi Lihua's explanation. Xia Zhi even felt that her misunderstanding might have deepened.
.
"Well...Mengmeng, this is my classmate, called Shiraishi Lihua. I usually take a lot of care from her. She is my friend. Li...Shiraishi, this is my sister, just call her Mengmeng.
I just traveled from the other side today, so please take care of me." Xia Zhi forced herself to introduce herself to both parties, while Shiraishi Lihua looked at Xia Meng with a smile and tried to say hello to her.
"Hello, Mengmeng. Welcome to Japan, you will definitely like it here."
"Thank you." Xia Meng also gave a decent answer to Shiraishi Rika's polite answer. Perhaps it was because she was a little hesitant to accept the snake oil-like answer. Shiraishi Rika was a little embarrassed, but no
The envious look in Tachibana-senpai's eyes that looked at her from a distance made her a little confused as to what was happening now.
"Anyway, let's come in and sit for a while."
Shiraishi Rika didn't suppress her curiosity and nodded. It happened that her mother had already said something like "I suddenly remembered that the water was still boiling at home" and left halfway. She obviously never had to boil water at home.
. Shiraishi Rika also knew what her mother was thinking. Although she was a little embarrassed, Shiraishi Rika came with the same intention this time.
Turning around and gently closing the door, Shiraishi Reika took off her shoes and walked to the entrance. Although not as many as Tachibana Aya, she had been here many times, and everything had a familiar feeling. Xia Meng couldn't help it.
He turned around and looked at Xia Zhi. Xia Zhi was sweating again, but he had no choice but to pretend he didn't see it.
Xia Meng walked a few steps towards the living room, and when passing by Xia Zhi, she quietly said to someone, "I'll settle the score with you later tonight." Then she took the water glass Xia Zhi put on the kitchen table into the bedroom.
Xia Zhi was about to cry, but Tachibana Aya stared at the cup held by Xia Meng for a long time. It wasn't until Xia Meng walked into the room that she puffed her lips and looked at Xia Zhi. Xia Zhi's side
I just took the snacks brought by Shiraishi Rika from her hand.
"Xia Zhijun's sister is so cute, just like Xia Zhijun." Shiraishi Lihua praised her. Xia Zhi originally wanted to accept it happily, but after thinking about it carefully, there seemed to be something wrong with this sentence: "
Mengmeng doesn’t seem to like me very much, did I do something wrong?”
"No, Mengmeng has always been like this. Although he looks cold, he is a kind and good child. Lihua, you don't have to worry about this." Xia Zhi comforted her and asked her what she was doing here today: "
By the way, this is the first time Lihua that you have come here without calling, is there something urgent?"
"It's nothing, just like what I just said, I went shopping and happened to come here, so I came here to give Xia Zhijun some snacks. Are you causing trouble to Xia Zhijun?"
"Not at all." Xia Zhi shook his head. How could he tell the truth? He still wanted to save face: "Lihua, go sit over there first and I'll get you a glass of water."
"No need to bother."
"There's nothing in the first place, so don't dislike it anymore." Xia Zhi made a joke, and then walked into the kitchen. Seeing that Xia Zhi didn't listen to her, Shiraishi Lihua didn't have any good ideas, so
He came to the living room and said hello to Tachibana Aya, who was sitting on the kotatsu table with his head propped up and looking at him.
"Good afternoon, Tachibana-senpai, I'm here again today."
"Isn't that the same, Rika-chan? You are welcome to come and play at any time. Treat this place as your own home. You're welcome." Tachibana Aya changed her previous frown and said with a smile. Shiraishi Rika knew that this slightly unruly senior had started teasing her again.
Already on her own, Shiraishi Rika decided not to bother herself by continuing to talk about this topic.
"Have Tachibana-senpai become good friends with Mengmeng? Mengmeng seems a little reluctant to talk to me." Shiraishi Rika was a little distressed. Xia Meng reminded her of the time when she just met Xia Zhi.
With very similar appearances and the same indifferent attitude towards themselves, the two of them are simply carved out of the same mold, just using different raw materials. Xia Zhi's side is fine, after all, they have been getting along for such a long time.
Later, Shiraishi Rika also knew that it was only when Natsuki was talking to people she didn't know well. Now the relationship between the two has become very good, although there is still a very powerful opponent sitting in front of her.
, but this is still much better than before. Baishi Lihua has no dissatisfaction. Therefore, if possible, Baishi Lihua wants to make friends with Xia Meng. Of course, this is not a first-come-first-served basis.
Just thinking about it, Shiraishi Rika just wants to make one more friend, eh.
Aya Tachibana, who had been smiling just now, froze after hearing Rika Shiraishi's troubled words, and the smile on her face froze like a photo. Rika Shiraishi looked at her with some confusion, and soon figured out why this
A person who is so perfect that you envy would have such an expression. It seems that in this respect, both of them are on the same starting line. Shiraishi Lihua showed a knowing smile: "I wonder if Mengmeng likes to eat snacks."
, I can only do these things.”
Aya Tachibana discovered that this cute love rival, who was usually as harmless as a small animal, also smiled like a devil. For the first time, Aya Tachibana hoped to share a part of his talent with others.
