Shiraishi Rika walked into the umbrella's coverage area and came to Xia Zhi's right. This umbrella can indeed accommodate two people, but it is just barely enough for two people. If the rain is a little heavier, or the wind is blowing, this umbrella
The umbrella is still not very useful.
The scene of sending Tachibana Aya back to the apartment last time under an umbrella was still vivid in my mind, but I didn't expect it would happen again. Natsuki said that he was ready for a battle.
The two of them stepped into the heavy rain.
After just two steps, Xia Zhi was still hoping that he might be able to block the two people. However, when the breeze blew, the already tilted raindrops became even more tilted, getting Xia Zhi's right hand completely wet——
Although this part is already wet.
Forget it, just take care of Shiraishi Reika. It was already wet anyway, so Xia Zhi felt that it didn’t matter whether she took an umbrella or not. She moved the umbrella towards Shiraishi Reika without leaving a trace, and the back of her hand touched Shiraishi.
Lihua's shoulders.
Compared with Tachibana Aya, or Yamamoto Ryoko, or Chihaya Yuuka or Mayumi, Shiraishi Rika is indeed relatively petite. But it is not to the extent of Itsuka and Rise, and it is still not as crowded as Tachibana Aya.
It's better to be together, even if the road is not easy to walk.
In such heavy rain, Xia Zhi didn't see any pedestrians. The few people who were there were covered by umbrellas and were busy walking.
Is this the only consolation from this heavy rain? At least no one will see me in such an embarrassing situation.
He had originally made up his mind to explain to Shiraishi Rika what had just happened, but now that things had happened, Xia Zhi didn't know how to speak. He became a little uneasy.
The feeling of guilt showed no sign of subsidence, and Xia Zhi felt that the rain had become extraordinarily long.
Following the route in his memory, Xia Zhi took Shiraishi Lihua and walked in the direction of her home.
However, this can't go on like this. If you don't speak, nothing will be solved. He doesn't like this atmosphere. Xia Zhi gritted his teeth and opened the topic.
"Um, Lihua..."
"Um?"
"Today's performance is quite interesting, don't you think?"
Xia Zhi wanted to slap himself.
"Ah...well, it's indeed quite interesting." Shiraishi Lihua answered absentmindedly, but this was not the result Xia Zhi wanted.
It was obvious that he was just opening his mouth to explain, so why did it become so difficult? This was different from his usual self. Xia Zhi took a deep breath and silently prayed for God's blessing in his heart.
"...Did you see what happened in the lounge?"
Xia Zhi felt the back of her hand trembled with Shiraishi Reika's body. Shiraishi Reika stopped her steps. Xia Zhi took a step forward without paying attention. After noticing that Shiraishi Reika didn't continue walking, she quickly retreated.
Back. Fortunately, it only rained a little bit and it was not a big problem.
But looking at Shiraishi Rika's appearance, she must have seen it and stopped running. Things started to unfold towards the most troublesome situation... although she was already mentally prepared.
"Lihua you..."
"What about that, Xia Zhijun?"
"……listen to me……"
Xia Zhi's words were interrupted by Shiraishi Reika, and she couldn't help but look at Shiraishi Reika blankly.
"What does Xia Zhijun think about me?" Baishi Lihua raised her own question, but still did not look at Xia Zhi, but lowered her head, not knowing that she was looking at the running water on the ground, but she was closing her eyes
eyes, showing all his courage.
"Lihua, of course, is my best friend." Xia Zhi gave this answer that had already formed in his heart. But...
"Is that all?" Shiraishi Lihua's voice seemed a little disappointed.
This girl who had been with her for a long time seemed not satisfied with the answer she had given a long time ago. She raised her head, looked forward, and stepped forward gently. Xia Zhi followed closely.
Beside her.
"Xia Zhijun still remembers what happened when we first met?"
"Of course I remember." The scene of Shiraishi Rika greeting her kept flashing through her mind. Thanks to the fact that she greeted her every day, although it was not exactly the same, Xia Zhi still remembered the first time Shiraishi Rika greeted her.
The scene when you are talking.
For this girl who had good intentions, I rejected her because I didn't have much energy to think about extra things at the time, so I didn't want to get too close to others, and because of certain things, I switched to another girl.
In the class, the relatively lively and outgoing Yamamoto Ryoko could still talk to him for a few words. Unexpectedly, she also came to the current class with him, and the close relationship between Yamamoto Ryoko and Shiraishi Rika was something Xia Zhi himself had never known.
Didn't even think of it.
He was able to become friends with Shiraishi Rika and develop the relationship that he has now. In addition to Shiraishi Rika's own friendliness and enthusiasm, Yamamoto Ryoko also helped a lot.
For them, Xia Zhi is very lucky to have such excellent and kind friends. Naturally, he will never forget the scenes of getting to know them and getting along with them so easily, and Shiraishi Lihua is a particularly prominent one among them.
As a girl, Xia Zhi remembered everything about her carefully and never dared to forget it.
"Xia Zhijun was very annoying when he was assigned to the same class as me."
After Xia Zhi heard this, he immediately felt his legs weaken and he was about to kneel down. Even if he didn't actually kneel down, he was frightened and staggered.
This is the most shocking and frightening thing I have heard this year.
Shiraishi Reika stretched out her hand to help Xia Zhi. Normally, Shiraishi Reika would care about Xia Zhi a little and then let go. But this time, Shiraishi Reika just smiled and kept her hand on Xia Zhi's hand holding the umbrella.
"I am obviously so beautiful, I speak very calmly, I always have a smile, and no matter how you look at me, I look very easy to get along with. My mother once told me that no matter where I am, I have to have a good relationship with others.
OK, so when I first started school, I made it my first goal to make friends with all the classmates. However, I was obviously about to achieve this goal, but there was one person who didn't know what to do and didn't cooperate at all.
He was also nonchalant when talking to me, and seemed like he had no interest in me at all."
Seeing Shiraishi Lihua looking at him, Xia Zhi swallowed: "Is it still too late for me to kneel down and apologize now?"
