Chapter 410 [409] The treasure of life

The moment the phone rang, the two who were teaching seemed to have been pressed the pause button at the same time, falling into a common silence.

Shiina Iori looked down.

Sure enough, the words [Shinon] were displayed on the screen.

"cough."

Seeing this, Shiina Iori cleared her throat, and turned her head a little apologetic: "Nagi-chan, I'll make a phone call first."

"I will continue to extend today's class by 15 minutes."

With that said, he was about to pick up his phone and get up.

Obviously, this is part of his strategy.

After taking a shower and sending that Line, the scumbag didn't continue to call after dinner as promised, but An Ansheng washed the dishes, cleared the table, changed clothes, and gave Nagisa sauce as if nothing had happened. Attend class.

It seemed that he completely forgot to call Sinon.

It's not that he has the pigeon disease that has become popular among urbanites recently, he just did it on purpose.

That's right!

One-sided flattery will always be meat buns and dogs, never returning, lowering one's bottom line too much, and even fueling the anger of the angry girlfriend because of opening the door and stepping on the right foot first.

Any slight inadvertent mistake at this moment can easily explode everything like a gas tank accidentally thrown into the fire source, making the entire digester tremble and dung coat the walls.

The correct approach is never to give in without a lower limit, but to give the other party a long or short period of calm down when planting a source of oppression that is visible to the naked eye.

Apparently, Shiina Iori did just that.

In that seemingly brief Line message, whether it was 'cooking for Nagisa-chan' or 'I'll call you later', they were the most straightforward sources of psychological pressure.

The former reminds people, the latter marks time.

When I didn't continue to call her according to the original plan, the words that were originally used to make people feel at ease would become a reminder to make the other party take the initiative step by step.

That's right.

The easiest way to reconcile after a quarrel is not to give in and tolerate, but to drive the party that refuses to reconcile to take the initiative, and then take this opportunity to let go of the past.

So far, the plan has been a success.

The next point is to
"Snapped!"

Just as Shiina Iori was thinking in her heart and was about to quickly go back to the bedroom to make a phone call, she felt a sudden pain in her thigh.

The crisp sound of palms being slapped on his legs rang in his ears.

The ass that had just been raised was pressed down by this small slap.

Shiina Iori was taken aback for a while.

As soon as he lowered his head, he saw Nagisa-chan's expression that seemed to be indifferent.

"It's okay, just play here."

"I'll pretend I didn't hear it."

Seemingly noticing Shiina Iori's slightly bewildered expression, Nagisa-chan felt a little out of breath, but suppressed it in her mouth, but there was a faint sour taste in her tone:

"how?"

"Is there anything you can't say in front of me?"

"I'm eighteen years old after my birthday this year!"

She was talking about the birthday she had this year on the Ferris wheel.

"Nagisa sauce."

Shiina Iori considered her tone and tried to be as cautious as possible: "After all, Shino and I also have a 'living together' relationship. There are some things that are not easy to say in front of other people."

"It's ok."

Nagisa Miyahara leaned on his soft side face with one hand, as if he was looking down at the topic on the table, his eyes drifted to the other side:
"Anyway, when you were sitting in Shengchuan, you said that you would fall in love with me after graduation."

"Big deal, big deal, I'll just tolerate her in the future!"

"I won't be angry."

The voice became lower and lower, and the amplitude of the little head became more and more exaggerated.

Until the end, only the back of the head was left facing the direction of Iori.

But that little hand was still firmly pressed on Shiina Iori's thigh, not giving an inch.

The smile on Shiina Iori's face stiffened suddenly.

Is this a question of your incompatibility!
The problem now is to make a phone call in front of you. The matter between me and Yui will definitely be exposed completely, and then even Fuminashi’s apartment will be shrouded in a terrifying atmosphere of killing girlfriends. It will develop into a miserable situation where I am being purged and left the house, and forced to sleep wrapped in newspapers and cardboard boxes under the bridge hole-it is not impossible to be taken away by the lucky one who picks up the leak → Jinwu Zangjiao → day and night.

In just a few seconds, Shiina Iori deduced the next tragic plot in his mind.

Going on like this, the happy ending of "everyone is my wing" and "want everything" in my imagination is bound to be impossible to appear.

Therefore, this route must be avoided!
"Doo-doo-doo-"

The phone rang continuously.

Shiina Iori's mind turned quickly: "I'm not afraid of your anger, mainly because of"

He turned his head with a slap, showing a very real stunned expression.

"cockroach!"

"where?!"

Nagisa-chan was listening attentively, and jumped up from her seat in fright.

Just the moment he let go of his hand, Shiina Iori seemed to hear the horse race of the starting gun, and flew several meters away with a single step.

Miyahara Nagisa was taken aback for a moment, and then he also reacted immediately, and couldn't help but become a little angry:
"Iori——!!!"

Shiina Iori didn't even pay attention, and her steps were so fast.

Just kidding, there is only so much time on the phone, how can there be time for him to think of extra excuses and reasons.

In a few seconds, the other person might hang up, and then how could he fool Shino into reconciling with him.

He rushed into the corridor, it was too late to enter the room, Shiina Iori also made a decisive choice, a right-angle turn sock drifted into the door of the bathroom closest to him, slammed the glass door and locked it with his hand.

"Click!"

During this process, the other hand has already clicked on the phone's call button.

"beep--"

He didn't even dare to take a breath, for fear that the little fox on the other side of the phone would be impatient because of such a short hesitation of a few tenths of a second. Shiina Iori, who is very professional in business, almost turned around and leaned against the bathroom glass The moment the door opened, a standard central air-conditioned warm smile naturally appeared on his face.

And at this time, the landlady's knocking on the door also came out by coincidence, with a few growls of unwilling milk mixed in the middle.

"Iori!!"

"Since I came back, I found that something is wrong with you!"

"What the hell happened to you guys in Shizuoka!"

"hateful!"

"If you have the guts to leave me alone to travel, why don't you have the guts to open the door!"

Obviously, the landlady who originally planned to get the answer through all kinds of insinuations has already taken the lead.

Also sure!
During this trip to Shizuoka, some ulterior secret must have happened between the few of them!

Miyahara Nagisa stuck to the bathroom door, thinking of this, subconsciously began to grind his teeth with hatred.

Shiina Iori completely regarded Nagisa-chan's voice as a consonant interlude with the sound of running water in the bathroom, and didn't care at all. She continued to speak into the microphone with a standard business smile on her face:
"Hi, Sinon."

When speaking, he raised his head subconsciously.

In front of him, Yui was sitting on a small wooden chair with a towel wrapped around his head, holding a shower head in his hand to rinse his body.

As if hearing the sound of closing the door, the little head also turned around in a daze, and his eyes happened to meet him.

At the same time, Senior Little Fox's insipid hum sounded in his ears.

"Ah."

The picture in front of his eyes and the sound in his ears seemed to be intertwined at this moment, which made him subconsciously have a rational illusion that Sinon had also seen this scene, and his back felt a little hairy.

When Yui saw Iori suddenly barging in, she hurriedly threw the shower in her hand on the ground, and instinctively wanted to reach out to cover her body.

But because the seal couldn't cover it with one hand, after thinking about it, he covered his face again
It wasn't until the thick brain circuit, which was more than ten beats slower, gradually turned around, and remembered the few breakfasts and suppers I had on the ship a few days ago, that I gradually came back to my senses.

It's just that there is still a little rosiness on the pink and tender face covered by the warm water mist, and the movements are a little cautious, the fingertips are very smooth and intertwined, and there is a bit of hesitation in the voice.

"Iori, Nagisa-chan is still outside."

The voice was subconsciously cautious.

"Shh-!!"

With this weak sound, Shiina Iori seemed to be killed, her eyes widened instantly, and her fingers were between her lips.

"Ok?"

However, even such a slight sound seemed to be heard by Sinon Sano on the other side of the phone, and the voice in the microphone suddenly became a bit cold:
"Why, I made 37 calls just to let your family, Yui-chan~ tell me, do you have a place to live now?"

"Let me be clear first, I'm just asking you what's the matter because you are so annoying, and you made so many phone calls during my sleep that I had to turn off the phone to fall asleep."

"If there is something to take at home, I will throw it for you through the window."

"No! How can it be~"

Shiina Iori immediately raised her voice, covering the rest of Yui's voice, and at the same time quickly motioned her to get into the bath with her eyes, and continued to confess:

"Senior sister, I have already realized my mistake, and I am planning to go there tomorrow to apologize. Do you have time?"

"No, I can't stand Iori-sama's Dogeza, I'll pass out just by looking at it."

"Then please be sure to accept the breakfast that will be delivered tomorrow, it's also a token of appreciation!"

"I want to lose weight recently, but I don't have any appetite in the morning, please don't send me here."

"By the way, Shino, I seem to have forgotten to unplug the big oven at home before I left. It's the red one on the left. You need to use it."

"Sorry~ The pastry hut won't be open for a few days, so don't worry about it, Iori-sama."

Before he could finish speaking, Sinon interrupted directly with a flat voice: "If that's all."

"Thank you for the few days in Shizuoka."

Sano Shino on the opposite side was taken aback when he heard the words, and seemed a little unresponsive.

Shiina Iori leaned against the glass door of the bathroom covered by a layer of water vapor, her mood seemed to be very calm: "Sister, you should have noticed that my mother really has no talent in cooking, and the best dishes are not good. There are only a few dishes, so it’s not a problem to cook at home every day, but if there are a little more people, it will be overwhelming.”

"If you didn't have Sinon as your helper in the kitchen, I'd probably be exposed on the first day."

"When I was in the car before, even my father said that my sister was a good cook. She was still stubborn a few days ago."

Hearing this, I don't know if it was because of the sense of homely tranquility, Sano Shino on the other side of the phone instinctively calmed down following Iori's plain tone.

However, immediately after that, he remembered the night when they didn't return all night.

The emotions that he thought he had suppressed suddenly fluctuated, his anger seemed to be unstoppable, and his voice became sharp and sarcastic:
"Yes~Yes~"

"Anyway, Iori-sama must have had a good time on the cruise ship while I was helping my mother cook, right?"

"I didn't even make a phone call, and the whole person disappeared."

"Anyway, for a greedy and dissatisfied guy like you, the girls around you are probably just clothes that you can change at will? Sometimes it doesn't matter if you wear a few more clothes?"

"It's just helping my mother cook a few meals at home. My cooking skills are far behind our genius Iori-sama~ They are not on the same level at all!"

"Besides, I'm just one of the three girls who went home with you!"

"—Isn't this completely unimportant?!"

Amid the continuous bombardment of complaints, the mood of the girl on the other side of the phone gradually increased. Even the polite and steady tone that she had pretended to be before became unsteady. , with a strong nasal sound in the gnashing of teeth.

Shiina Iori just listened before, passively accepting the grievance, anxiety and sadness from the other side of the phone.

until the last sentence:
"You are very important."

His volume is not high, and there is a bit of hoarseness in his calm and magnetic voice that seems to have been baptized by time.

Then, as if he felt that saying this was not entirely accurate, he adjusted his terminology again.

"At least, that's how it looks to me."

The voice on the other side stopped suddenly, leaving only a very slight, subconscious vibrato.

It seems to be in a daze.

Shiina Iori adjusted her tone and carefully used her words, but every sentence she uttered was extremely sincere: "It doesn't make sense to lie to the people closest to me, so... I don't want to lie to you, senior."

"I'm not going to quibble about that day, I just want you to know—"

"For me, the first half of my life that has passed now is as illusory as a castle in the air, with no sense of reality. I just try my best to make progress and work hard. It seems that the meaning of life is only to pay off the remaining loans and climb to a higher level. ladder."

In his usual reassuring voice, the trembling voice on the other side of the phone gradually stopped, and even the air became silent, as if he was listening quietly.

"It is your appearance that has extended my life in a real sense and given me the qualifications to think about the future, career, family and future generations."

"Every one of you is a treasure that I can meet but can't ask for, and is the most real part of my life."

"Whether it's Sinon, or Nagisa-chan, Xing and Yui, it's all very important."

Shiina Iori's voice is soft, and when he narrates the memories and emotions he feels, he doesn't have a sense of pretentious sensibility.

——If there is no system, no Sinon and these girls beside him now, Shiina Iori's life length will be 24 years old with the end in sight.

It was an age that at most only allowed a medical student like him to graduate from the training institute.

But now that it has been extended to 34 years old, and there is obviously a chance to continue to grow in the future, everything is obviously different.

Every girl around him represents more than just a precious companionship and affection.

At the same time, it is the most real part of the length of his life.

Maybe it was with such a mood, or because of feelings, Shiina Iori's comforting voice gradually became deeper and quieter: "So...whether it's sad or sad, please don't say such things."

"I'm going to be very sad."

In the bath, Yui looked at him with a small head.

Outside the door, the sound of Miyahara Nagisa's knocking on the door stopped at some point.

There was also an inexplicable silence on the other side of the phone, only the slight sound of breathing remained.

Shiina Iori didn't continue to say anything, but just waited quietly.

"."

"Even children don't want to listen to that kind of talk!"

"idiot!"

After cursing, the person on the other side immediately hung up.

There was only a long "beep——" prompt sound in the microphone.

Shiina Iori was still holding the microphone in his hand, and he couldn't help showing a relaxed smile on his face, which had always been a bit heavy before.

When he heard the gnashing of teeth and a bit of dynamic scolding just now, he knew that the most dangerous level had passed.

After solving the breakup crisis visible to the naked eye, the next thing to do is to get closer and repair the relationship.

Count on Senior Little Fox to treat everything as if nothing happened, or simply let her accept 'Let's live together! ', 'You are all my wings! 'Such silly words are things that are impossible to dream of.

No matter how strong a person's love for another person is, the desire for exclusiveness must have the same depth.

The only thing Shiina Iori can do is to make herself a little stronger, so as not to be torn apart by the chaotic desire for monopoly at the moment of a certain kettle sound.

"Iori.?"

Yui, a small head protruding from the edge of the bath, looked at him with blinking eyes, and pointed to his mouth, as if to indicate something.

Shiina Iori looked at the phone, then at the glass door behind it, and compared it with a finger.

"Shh."

Then, I saw him open and close the door swiftly, and walk out with a bang.

Don't give Nagisa-chan at the door the slightest chance to peek inside.

Seeing this, Yui rubbed his face and let out a long sigh of relief.

However, thinking of what Iori had just said to Sinon on the phone, her pink face still felt unstoppably hot.

"Life is the same, treasure?"

"Hey hey"
