Chapter 121: If you like me, please tell me!

……

Woof.

Aoi Natsuki stood on the wooden porch outside the balcony, her gaze calmly looking at Jijang, who was wagging her tail rapidly towards her in the garden.

A man and a dog stare at each other.

He couldn’t see a single distraction in Yoshi Sauce’s eyes.

It’s so nice, sometimes I think about the life of being a pet every single day without any worries or troubles.

Natsuki Arai exhaled from the tip of her nose, today was the second day of her official vacation, but yet ……

His eyes slowly turned his head into the living room, where a few girls sitting in rows on the couch were chatting with each other, and there were fruits and snacks cut up for them by his parents on the table… Was his house really a tea party?

After taking a breath of fresh air, Natsuki Aoi re-entered the living room, when Apricot Sakurajima, who was sitting on a separate small sofa, waved her hand towards him and smiled, “Aoi, you’re the only one left, come over here and sit with us.”

He looked a little odd after hearing that, and then looked at Hayakawa as well as Takahashi, who were likewise blushing, inevitably a little shy from such a sudden visit, and both subconsciously avoided his eyes.

“You’re still completely nonchalant, Sakurajima.” Natsuki Aoi shrugged.

In fact, he didn’t really care, it was good to get together with a few friends during vacation time, but if it was an event organized by Sakurajima, then the true purpose of the event needed to be put into a big question mark.

“Yossi! New venue confirmed for Discovery Club Outdoors!”

“Don’t talk to yourself!”

Aoi Natsuki spat out, and then sat down on the edge of the long sofa, with Rina sitting beside her, watching “Let’s Bare Bears” on demand on the TV very intently, her body not being cold at all because of the underfloor heating in the living room, barefoot and fully dressed in a light pink nightgown, constantly swinging her short legs back and forth.

“Awwww.”

Lina had a fruit plate in her hand, and with that, she stuck a piece of fruit in her plastic fork and reached out to Natsuki.

“Thanks.” Aoi bowed her head and just took a bite of the piece of apple, while thoughts were floating around in the head of Takahashi Midu who saw the scene.

Ah ……

At that moment, Mr. and Mrs. Aoi walked in from the entrance of the dining room and greeted the few people, everyone had met them before, they were all familiar with each other.

The first thing Aoi Ryuuya saw was Long Sakura sitting upright on the sofa, and he was instantly healed inside, in his heart, Long Sakura was the one he had chosen for his son!

“Honey!” Aoi Ikuko glared at him with her eyes, her tone slightly serious, and Aoi Ryuuya immediately straightened her attitude, and in the next moment she instead turned her attention to Hayakawa Keiko, who was sitting on the far left side of the long couch.

Apparently Mr. and Mrs. Aoi have a girl in mind for them.

“This is ……”

It was the first time that Mr. and Mrs. Aoi had met Takahashi Midu, but from her looks, there was an indescribable sense of familiarity.

But it shouldn’t be, a beauty like this shouldn’t be forgotten even after a year apart.

Arai Ryuuya angled his head and rubbed his chin with his right hand as his mind began to think.

“Hello uncle, aunt and uncle! I, my name is Takahashi Mito! It’s my first time to meet you! Please teach me more!”

Takahashi Mito had been waiting for this moment, but the mind that had been prepared for it instantly went blank when he actually met Aoi’s mom and dad.

It’s a very real reaction, it’s not really stressful to come over to a familiar friend’s house, it’s really stressful to come over and have the other person’s parents still at home, that’s the real awkwardness!

When I learned last night that I would be meeting at Aoi’s house today, I had been thinking about making a good impression on Aoi’s parents during their first meeting, and I stayed up until 2:00 a.m. all night just thinking about it and preparing the wording, and finally forced myself to fall asleep.

Woke up early this morning, washed her hair and put on makeup, stood in front of the full body mirror to change several outfits, just to present the best state, but I did not expect that at this moment, she had practiced countless times the words actually appeared to be stuck, she really wanted to find a crack to drill in ah!

“Takahashi?”

Mr. and Mrs. Arai also perceived the surname.

Aoi Ikuko was the first to respond, “May I ask who Ayano is?”

Takahashi Mito regained consciousness and said respectfully, “I’m her sister.”

“Oh! I remember, Ayano also mentioned that she has an older sister who is also an alumnus of the same school as Natsuki, talking about you, right?”

“Yes! Uncle!”

Standing up, Takahashi Mito folded her hands back and forth in front of her body in a well-behaved manner that was quite rare on a normal day, which drew the curious attention of the others around her.

Aoi Ryu was equally surprised by Takahashi Mito’s face value, no matter which one of the several girls here today, singled out individually, could reach the level of a TV debut idol, no! No! Even surpassing ordinary idols, they are completely divine faces that can stand in the C position!

“Auntie and Uncle, let me pour you a cup of tea.” Long Cherry said at this time.

Aoi Ikuko didn’t say anything, but only nodded her head gently, after which she found a cushion and placed it on the carpet next to the coffee table, and then sat down.

Long Sakura got up and went to pour the tea, while a few other girls, upon seeing Auntie sitting on the carpet, quickly got their asses off the sofa and then followed to sit around the coffee table, not daring to treat her in any way.

Aoi Natsuki saw the situation and felt the calm oppressive feeling of his old mom, who had been brought up with strict discipline since childhood, but had received a lot of stern guidance from his mom.

“Here, Uncle.” Long Sakura returned from making tea and respectfully handed it to Ryuya Arai.

Aoi Ryu nodded in satisfaction as well and followed suit, and then a few people began to make small talk.

Each had their own goals, occasionally struck up a conversation with someone else, and overall it was kind of a fun time.

Sakurajima Apricot played the role of a good girl as always, and such a sense of contrast made Aoi Natsuki, who was standing by the cabinet at the edge of the living room, unable to help but feel a chill in her heart.

“Auntie and Uncle, before the first meeting came in haste and I didn’t bring any gifts, this time I specially selected two meet and greet gifts, please be sure to accept them.” Sakurajima Apricot pulled out two red-packaged gift boxes from her bag and handed them over with both hands with a sweet smile on her face.

This action instantly made the sight of Midu Takahashi on the side, Sakurajima you!

All at once the whole room followed in silence.

Looking at the gift box, Aoi Ryuuya first made a wooden “Oh” sound, and then took the gift: “Sakurajima, you’re really thoughtful, but we can’t accept anything that’s too expensive.”

“It’s just a small token of appreciation.” Sakurajima Apricot continued to display her sweet sister traits.

Aoi Natsuki couldn’t look away, reached out and slapped his head, and was about to turn around and bolt for the restroom when his afterglow noticed Takahashi Mito, who kept shooting him looks of help.

Yeah, it was her first time here today as well, and she came prepared, but all her planning ultimately missed that Sakurajima had this trick up her sleeve!

Now she was afraid that Aoi’s parents would think too much about it and have bad thoughts about her in their hearts, and her whole heart was in turmoil with it, so she finally had to seek help from Aoi, hoping that he could help her say a few words.

It’s not often that Takahashi Mito looks aggravated, but Aoi Natsuki doesn’t want to stay here anymore, I’m sorry Takahashi, you’re already a sixteen year old girl who understands that when you meet difficulties, you need to overcome them on your own.

Thinking of this, Aoi Natsuki accelerated her steps to leave the door of the dining room.

Looking at his distant back, Takahashi Midu cried out miserably for help in her heart.

Anxious, the whole body swayed slightly.

Corridor.

Aoi Natsuki had just finished flushing the toilet and stepped out, when he came face to face with Sakurajima Apricot, who was waiting for her with her eyes closed, leaning against the wall, with Ryuusakura beside her, engaged in small talk with her.

When they saw him come out of the restroom, they also stopped talking and looked at him.

“So what, Sakurajima, you didn’t come over here today for some kind of experiment or to verify those unrealistic hypotheses again, did you?” Natsuki Aoi was the first to ask.

“Why, today is just a very normal gathering of friends isn’t it?”

Natsuki Arai narrowed her eyes in obvious disbelief, “Then why did you have to choose my house?”

Sakurajima Apricot opened her flirtatious eyes, straight from his collarbone, slowly rising to his jaw, lips, and finally the bridge of his nose, and smiled, “Isn’t the answer obvious, as your harem group, naturally they should all be assembled in your house.”

“???”

“Ah le le, you’re not trying to deny it, are you? Then I’ll be very sad.” Sakurajima Apricot put on a sad expression, albeit very fake.

Unable to communicate with her, Aoi Natsuki turned to Ryuusakura and asked, “Ryuusakura, you wouldn’t have such a ridiculous idea, would you?”

For a traditional martial arts practicing family, the idea of loyalty between husband and wife and such should be very deeply rooted, and he was thinking of having Ryuusakura open her mouth to give Sakurajima a good rebuke, two against one, a double crush in words and physicality.

“I don’t really think it’s weird.”

“Huh?” Aoi Natsuki was greatly shocked.

“My grandfather had three wives back in the day in Rice, so I don’t really have an objection to the idea.”

“You watch.”

“Don’t make a scene, if my parents hear this, I won’t be able to avoid a mental education tonight.” Aoi Natsuki stated this matter seriously and gravely, but Sakurajima Apricot was clearly unimpressed.

Harem ……

The thought didn’t cross his mind for a second.

It’s fine if it’s really a galgame, put it in reality and it might cause the whole thing to fall apart, and on top of that, reality doesn’t exist to read gears!

“Let’s go back, just now uncle told me that there are pictures of Aoi as a child that we can look at oh.”

“Really?” Dragon Sakura said in surprise.

“You guys!” Aoi Natsuki was just about to step forward, but in the next second, Sakurajima stopped her with her hand, and Ryuusakura went back to the living room first, and at that moment, only Aoi Natsuki and Sakurajima Apricot were left in the whole corridor.

There were those compelling eyes again, but over time he gradually began to get used to them.

Sakurajima’s hand still stopped in front of him.

Aoi raised his head, Sakurajima then stepped forward, his right index finger gently poking at the location of his heart, his eyes staring, his tone low, “If …… there’s ever a day when you have a little bit of a heart attack on me, be sure to let me know, I want to… …”

She slowly shifted her eyes upward to meet his at eye level.

“I’m going to have a great time.”

After saying that, Sakurajima apricot immediately moved away from the line of sight, turned around and walked into the door of the dining room, while Aoi Natsuki was still standing dumbfounded in the same place, his mind was still thinking about what had just happened, he didn’t know why, he had just heard a lot of complex emotions from Sakurajima’s tone, Sakurajima wanted to express something, but through the throat didn’t even open his mouth and say it.

“……”

After a long silence, Natsuki Aoi let out a long breath and, without further thought, walked into the doorway.

Just as he took his first step inside, Sakurajima’s voice came back to his ears.

“Whoa! Is this what Aoi looks like at five years old! So cute~”

Hmm?

“Dad! What the hell are you doing!”

……

The fifth day of vacation.

Natsuki Arai has to continue with her plan to upgrade Hayakawa’s specialty spot, and after Sakurajima said earlier that she found a new spot for fishing, she asked last night and indeed there was such a spot, just in time for vacation and another day to kill.

Early in the morning, the sun was shining brightly, with sheer white clouds hanging in the sky, and although it was slightly chilly, it wasn’t as freezing as it had been earlier.

Put a scarf on Lena and get ready to go.

“Ready?”

“Awwww!”

Leigh’s signature move, the thumbs up of affirmation.

Stroking her hair, he then carried on the items he needed based on the information Sakurajima had sent to him, the equipment side of things would be prepared by Sakurajima, he just needed to do the follow up cooking.

Carrying a large bag on their backs and holding Lina in their left hands, the two finally stepped out of this door that they hadn’t been out of for two days, once they were on vacation they liked to stay at home, especially in winter, when there was underfloor heating in the house, so how could they think of going out?

Stepping out of the entrance door and taking a deep breath of cold air, both Aoi Natsuki and Rina shook their bodies in silent agreement.

“Awwww~”

Lina waved goodbye to Jijang.

The two then headed to the location they had agreed upon with Sakurajima, where they bumped into Hayakawa, who had arrived early, and waited ten minutes for Sakurajima’s apricot to arrive, and the group of four boarded the bus and began to slowly drive towards the outskirts of Tokyo.

What do you say? And it’s a good experience to show little kids the ocean.

Facing high-rise buildings all day long will make you feel bad after a long time.

It’s better to relax more from time to time. If you should enjoy it, you should enjoy it.

Traveling for four and a half hours, Lina was so sleepy that she couldn’t even open her eyes, leaning against Natsuki’s arm and drifting off to sleep, and Aoi Natsuki’s interest had also become flat from the original high, and when he once again looked his eyes out of the window, what he saw this time was a very different picture.

It’s the sea.

It was a truly endless sea.

He pulled open the quarter window and a gust of sea air blew right through Lina, who was about to fall into a stupor, her hair disheveled, exposing her large forehead.

She slowly climbed to her feet, letting out an immediate gasp at the sight of the ocean outside.

The other tourists in the entire bus laughed along with them due to the excessive noise.

Aoi Natsuki embarrassment, the car are some old moncler outlet online women, dressed very plain, a closer look, there are a few moncler outlet online feet next to the fish bucket, may also be the same as them, is to go fishing.

Hayakawa Keiko looked out the window with longing, she vaguely remembered that when she was a child in the countryside was such a scene, many of the houses here were some kind of bed and breakfast, it looked especially nostalgic.

At eleven o’clock in the morning, several people got off the bus.

But the sight after getting off the bus made Aoi Natsuki confused, wasn’t he here to fish? This is not only one kilometer away from the location of the beach.

“Sakurajima, did you get off at the wrong place?”

“No, this is it.”

“But there’s no sea here either, how can I fish?”

“Did I say I was here to fish?”

“Hmm?”

Apricot Sakurajima reversed her backpack in front of her and unzipped it, pulling a small shovel out of it.

Smiling, he said towards the crowd:

“Let’s catch the sea together today.”
