Fruits Basket and Firefly

In the dim corridor, Nolan leaned his back against the wall and looked out the window. The school time and club time had already passed, and the school was empty at this time.Where should I go, where is my shelter?Nolan stared out the window blankly.

It is you who should know the shame!

Why do you question me, who are you to me, don't you think you are meddling in my own business! !

Yuxi's indifferent words echoed in Nolan's ears. It turned out that such a gentle Yuxi would be so indifferent. It turned out that he had no place in Yuxi's heart at all. It turned out that he was really self-indulgent... The more he thought about these things, the more Nolan felt in his heart. The pain subsided, she covered her head and squatted on the ground and cried bitterly.

"Xiao Lan!" The soft call made Nolan wake up. She looked up and saw a young blond boy standing in front of her.

"Red leaves!"

"I saw everything just now, including what Yuki said!" Momiji's words made Nolan's heart sink, and tears welled up in his dry eyes again, and the tears rolled down his cheeks.

"Hehe, what did you come to me for?!" Nolan stood up angrily and shouted almost madly, "Look at my joke, I'm just a tool of your Cao Mo family. I don’t care about you, go away, go away!!”

Hongye was not frightened by Nolan's crazy behavior, he reached out to wipe away Nolan's tears and said softly: "But in my heart, Xiaolan is a very important friend, not a tool!"

"Hongye, thank you!" Nolan cried and laughed, feeling much better.

Hongye couldn't bear to see the sad Nolan, so she could only wipe away Nolan's tears with her hands: "Xiao Lan, come and stay at my house tonight!"

"what!!"

"I know you live at Ziwu's house." Hongye knelt down and helped Nolan who was sitting on the ground, "Yuki also lives there, if you go back, aren't you afraid that it will be awkward for you to meet?"

Nolan understood Hongye's words. Hongye was right. Going home under such circumstances, the two of them would inevitably meet, and that would be embarrassing.

"Hongye, I'll stay at your house tonight!"

On the other side, Zi Wu who didn't see Nolan came back cried and said, "Ah~~, my dear Xiao Lanlan, my dear daughter, why haven't you come back?"

Ah Jia snorted helplessly: "Since when did Xiaolan become your daughter?"

Tou looked up at his watch, and said worriedly, "Where did Xiaolan go, and why are you still here so late?"

"I'm back." Yuki came into the house after school.

"Yu Xijun, you are back." Tou went to the door to greet him, but Nolan was nowhere to be seen, "Huh? Didn't Xiaolan come back with you?"

"No." When Nolan was mentioned, Yuki's eyes dimmed.

"That's strange, Xiaolan hasn't come back yet!!"

You Xi was taken aback by Tou's words, and hurried forward and asked anxiously, "You said Nolan hasn't come back yet?"

Tou nodded, and Yuki immediately put on her shoes: "I'll go find her!"

Just when Yuki was about to go out, a ringing of the phone alarmed the people in the house, and Ziwu answered the phone: "Hello, Kusama's house, oh, it's Hongye."

Red leaves?What is he calling for?Yuki perked up her ears to the back room in doubt.

"Hey! Xiaolan is with you!!" Zi Wu's exclamation startled Toto and Ah Jia, and Yuxi was even more stunned.

"Well, Xiaolan is here." On the other end of the phone, Hongye looked at Nolan who was sitting beside her, and handed the phone to her, "Xiaolan, Ziwu is looking for you."

"Hey."

Nolan weakly stunned Zi Wu on the other end of the phone, and then asked anxiously: "Xiaolan, what happened, why did you go to Hongye's house?"

"Mr. Ziwu, I'm fine." Nolan said, "I just wanted to come to Hongye's house to play suddenly, so I came here."

"Hey, Xiaolan, when are you coming back?"

"I don't know." Nolan paused and continued, "But I will be home in a few days, sorry for worrying you."

"Xiao Lan, you have to take care of yourself over there." Zi Wu said with concern.

"Well, thank you, I'm going to hang up, goodbye."

"See you."

Looking at the phone with a busy tone, Zi Wu sighed and hung up the phone, and Tou quickly stepped forward and asked, "Mr. Zi Wu, where is Xiaolan? How is she?"

"She's staying at Hongye's house for a few days." Zi Wu scratched her head and said in a heavy tone, "She doesn't seem to be energetic on the phone, and her voice sounds like crying."

Hearing Zi Wu's words, Yuxi felt a throbbing pain in his heart, and he began to regret his actions at that time.

Because Hongye's house had no spare room, Hongye's father asked Nolan to share a room with Hongye. At night, Nolan and Hongye huddled together on the same bed and chatted. It was Nolan who accidentally touched Hongye's hand. Just like last time, memories of Hongye flooded into my mind this time.

The little blond boy watched Boniao talking to his mother.

"Do you not regret doing this?"

"The only thing I regret is that I gave birth to that freak!" said the beautiful blonde woman decadently.

Unable to hug my mother, my dearest mother forcibly forgot herself, so lonely, so lonely, and my heart hurts not seeing my mother.

With father's double love, no matter how sad or painful it is, I will bear it with a smile. Mom, Hongye is very strong, Hongye will silently wish her mother happiness.

"Xiaolan." Seeing that Nolan had been stunned for a long time without falling asleep, Hongye called her softly, "What's wrong, I can't sleep, what are you thinking?"

"It's nothing." Nolan smiled at Hongye, hiding the sadness on his face, "I forgot to tell you, as a goddess, I just met you and felt your memories and emotions."

"Oh, what were you thinking just now?"

"I don't think about anything!!"

"I'm thinking about Yuki!" Hongye's words expressed what Nolan was thinking.

Hearing Yuki's name, Nolan's smiling expression gradually turned into sadness, and his eyes dimmed.

"Sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned him."

"It's okay." Nolan smiled at Hongye. "After all, I'm not the same kind of person as he is. Besides, I still don't understand him."

"Xiaolan, I will protect you." Nolan was stunned by Hongye's sudden words.I will protect you, that person once said to himself, but in the end there was nothing, he still hurt her.Those words are useless.

Thinking of this, Nolan resisted the urge to cry, and said, "Hongye, don't say anything about protecting me, understand, in the end, not only did you not protect the person you wanted to protect, but you hurt that person in the end. "

"Xiao Lan."

"Go to sleep, we have to get up early tomorrow." Nolan smiled and patted Hongye's head, closed his eyes and fell asleep.Looking at the sleeping Nolan, Hongye felt very painful in his heart, he didn't know what to do, since the first time he saw that girl, his eyes only felt bright.He originally thought that Tou was the existence of light in his heart, but this girl looked like an angel.At some point, he wanted to protect her.
