[volleyball! ! ]Why Don't You Kiss Her

Chapter 16 Firework Festival

By the time we returned to Miyagi from Tokyo, it was already getting late, the gorgeous light in the sky was slowly dimming, and the night fell silently. long.

Lin Qiao stopped, and the footsteps behind her also stopped abruptly.As she walked, footsteps sounded non-stop behind her.Follow closely, like a puppy who is afraid of being abandoned by its owner.

"You have been with me all the way..." Lin Qiao rubbed his forehead, looked up at the sky, "Don't you need to go home? It's very late."

Lev Huiba stood up straight, with a serious expression on his face, "It's because it's late that I'm sending you home safely!" Well, in those eight o'clock TV dramas that the family watched, the male protagonist is so affectionate If you are lucky enough to send the heroine home, you may be invited to the girl's house for a cup of steaming tea.

"Yes." Lin Qiao sighed and surrendered.Another intersection is her home, "Just send it here, congratulations, Gray Feather Knight, your mission has been successfully completed."

"No. I have to watch you enter the house before leaving." She hasn't invited him in for tea yet!How can I give up!

Lin Qiao silently held his forehead, turned around and stopped talking.The two walked in silence for more than ten meters. Lin Qiao inexplicably felt that Hui Yu seemed to be very happy today, and her footsteps were a little brisk. When she looked back at him just now, she bumped into his shining green eyes. , like a warm and bright emerald.

When he got home, Lin Qiao pushed open the iron door, took out the key and stuck it in the lock.Two clicks, and then twist to open the door.Lin Qiao looked down at his fingers pinching the key, hesitated for a while, and turned his face, "Thank you...I'm home."

--that's all? !Hui Yu looked a bit reluctant, and pouted on the spot, but Lin Qiao also kept his eyes down in front of the closed door in such a silent manner, so resolute that he did not waver at all.

Hui Yu scratched at her silver hair, and finally slumped her shoulders in frustration.One second before turning around to leave, he still asked unwillingly, "Then...shall I go?"

"Well, bye. Be careful on the way home."

"...um...bye."

When Hui Yu's figure gradually became too small to be seen, Lin Qiao breathed a sigh of relief, unscrewed the last lock, and pushed the door in.

There were no shoes in the entrance, she stretched out her index finger to wipe off the shoe cabinet, and frowned at the layer of dust on her finger when she retracted her hand.After taking off his shoes, Lin Qiao stepped into the room with bare feet, the cold floor was so dirty that his feet were actually sticky.Walking into the dining room and opening the refrigerator, she saw only an empty cold room in the orange light.Still not giving up, she rummaged through the locker, and finally pulled out a box of instant noodles that hadn't expired yet. Lin Qiao held the instant noodles like a baby, and breathed a sigh of relief.

She pulled out the chair and sat down, tore open the package, and carefully poured the seasoning packet on the noodles. The hot water pot not far away was gurgling and boiling water. She looked at the hot air coming out and licked her lips expectantly. This cheap yet filling meal can be easily and happily eaten in minutes, rewarding her already hungry stomach.

Boil the water and soak the instant noodles. Three minutes later, Lin Qiao ate heartily while holding a fork.The way she eats always makes people look very appetizing, but she feels as satisfied as eating top-level kaiseki cuisine after eating instant noodles. Some classmates once joked that they would let her do food advertisements.

It was just that Lin Qiao choked on his face because he ate too quickly.Patting her chest to let the food stuck in her esophagus slide down, she coughed twice and choked out tears.Turning her gaze, she saw a photo frame on the TV cabinet. It was a photo of her and her parents when she was a baby. She probably forgot to take it away before... She drank the last sip of soup in the bowl slowly, Pulling off a tissue, he carefully wiped his lips clean, stood up and walked over, raised his hand, and flipped the photo frame down neatly.

With a "bang", the photo frame fell down like a shot soldier. The sound was like a small hammer hitting one's own bones, and all limbs were aching.

In fact, Lin Qiao had already guessed the situation at home before entering the door, so he didn't let Hui Yuleo in.The ugliness of the family should not be publicized, how could she have the nerve to let Hui Yu step into this deserted house.

The minute hand and the hour hand pointed at a quarter past nine when Lin Qiao just filled a tank full of hot water and dropped a yellow rubber duckling the size of a palm in it.She took off her clothes and immersed herself in the bathtub. When the whole body was submerged in the bathtub, the overfilled hot water scrambled and overflowed from the edge of the bathtub. A few times she had a little fun.

The water temperature gradually became cooler, Lin Qiao lay in the bathtub and closed his eyes wearily.

"It's just me and you from now on."

Rubber ducks waddled silently on the water.

Lin Qiao slept deeply and had no dreams all night.After waking up, she cleaned up and down the house. There was a lot of dust in the house. It seems that my parents are enjoying their new life and haven't been back much.He bought vegetables and cooked a meal, but in the end Lin Qiao was so tired that he slumped at the dining table and couldn't straighten up. He had no desire to eat the delicious food.

The phone rang, and Lin Qiao lazily reached out to touch it.

"Senior Black Tail?"

"Oh, Jojo, the plan has changed, the training starts a day earlier, so you can come over tomorrow."

"..." Lin Qiao glanced at the calendar in embarrassment. He originally wanted to take advantage of the last holiday before the spring high school competition tomorrow, but now he was told to work overtime.She pulled her hair, "Well, I see."

The next day, Lin Qiao packed up his clothes and went out.The school dormitory is not open during the summer vacation, and she has to stay at her grandfather's house before school starts.She came to her grandfather's house before rushing to school. Grandpa took out iced sour plum juice to quench her thirst. She took it and drank it all in one gulp. Behind him, he silently stared at her chestnut hair that was about to reach her shoulder line.

"Has Jojo grown taller again?"

"Hmm... I don't know. But it should be one seven two."

She sat on the steps with her back to her grandfather and bent over to tie her shoelaces.

"It's really like the cherry tree in the yard. Before I knew it, it grew so tall..."

Lin Qiao paused, stood up silently, carried his schoolbag on his back, turned his face sideways and waved at Grandpa.

"I'm leaving."

"Okay, be careful on the road."

Pushing open the iron gate of the yard, she stopped and took a look at the lush cherry tree.When she was a child, she was still just a weak sapling when she could be hugged by her grandfather on his knees. Now even the branches have stretched out from the fence of the yard unwillingly. The flowers in early spring withered all over the ground. Slightly reddened by the midsummer wind.

The cherries are red and plantains are green.

The streamer throws people away.

The days after that became normal again. The gymnasium and grandpa’s house were at two o’clock and one line. I followed the group of young boys to haunt the volleyball hall. When I was busy, I was covered in sweat—nothing bad, at least my life was back again. In the center of gravity, Lin Qiao lived with peace of mind.Occasionally, after training, the boys would ask her to have dessert together, and if they came back late, they would give her a ride.She felt very happy, although these big boys were bluffing, but there was still a rare delicacy hidden under the carelessness.

No one doesn't like the feeling of being cared for.So she always laughed during this period. The gloomy and depressed Lin Qiao who used to be in the camp has faded into a faint gray shadow.

On the last day of summer training, the homework time was half an hour earlier than usual.When Lin Qiao was tidying up the net, Hui Yu, who was mopping the floor beside him, rubbed over, "Is Qiao Qiao going tonight?"

"where to?"

"Summer sacrifice."

Lin Qiao tilted her head and thought for a while, as if there was nothing to do at night, she nodded and agreed.

Tiger Yamamoto whistled happily, "Hey—the manager wants to wear a yukata, yukata!"

The corner of Lin Qiao's mouth twitched, "...I refuse."

"Ah! Why!"

Are you kidding me, bathrobe?It seems that after the fifth grade of elementary school, I didn't wear it again.Because Lin Qiao's height grew too fast, if she had to go to the summer festival every year, the family would have to prepare a new bathrobe for her every year.And the way to put on a bathrobe is so troublesome, how could she know it.

Yamamoto threatened her ferociously that if she didn't wear a yukata, she wouldn't take you to play. Lin Qiao grimaced but didn't get angry at all.At seven o'clock in the evening, the doorbell of grandpa's house was rang on time.

"Let's go-"

Waiting outside the door was a group of teenagers baring their white teeth and laughing.

Lin Qiao couldn't remember how long he hadn't visited the summer festival.Colorful lanterns hang on both sides of the crowded street, and the smell of various foods is wafting from the nostrils. Masked children in beautiful bathrobes are running around, holding a bag with a small goldfish in one hand. Inside is a bite of apple candy, and there is a lot of people clamoring, this is the last feast of summer.

Lin Qiao, who hadn't been to a temple fair for a long time, was happily eating cotton candy, stopped and looked around, and had a great time in front of the goldfish fishing stall.But she couldn't find one for a long time, so she turned around to ask the Black Tail Gang for help, but when she turned around, she suddenly realized that she had separated from the big team.The surrounding crowd came one after another, and she stood against the flow of people and looked around, calling the names of Heiwei and Hisense twice anxiously, but no one answered.

Fortunately, just a second before he panicked, he saw a bustling shooting game stand not far away. The tall, silver-haired boy was aiming at the target with a gun.

When Lin Qiao approached, Hui Yu didn't notice her. He pulled the trigger, and the wooden bullet was shot out, but the dolls in the opposite row remained motionless.

"Boss! Let's do it again!"

Huiba slapped 100 yen on the table vigorously, his crooked fox mask messed up his hair, and his gnashing expression looked like an angry little wolf dog.The boss with a beer belly reloaded Hui Yu with a happy face. He took up the gun and aimed again with a serious face. There was a sound, and the dolls remained stable.

Hui Yu was so angry that she wanted to slap 100 yen on the table aggressively again, but after digging in her pocket for a long time, she could only touch the rubbed fabric, and her handsome features silently wrinkled into bitter gourds.Lin Qiao watched from the side, and finally couldn't help laughing, stepped forward and took out 100 yen and put it on the table.

"Boss, I'll come once."

Lin Qiao took the gun and weighed it. After thinking about how to use it, he picked it up.She closed her right eye, her expression was tense, she pressed the trigger with her finger, and asked without raising her head, "Hui Yu, which one do you want? The lion?"

"Uh...um."

--boom!

As soon as the words fell, the fluffy lion doll wobbled and fell down from the shelf. Passers-by A, B, C and D applauded in admiration. Lin Qiao, who couldn't believe it himself, was dumbfounded.Lin Qiao pursed her lips and laughed, curling her curly hair with her fingers, a little embarrassed. In fact, she was just trying her luck before, but she hit the target unexpectedly, and she couldn't help laughing wildly at her own luck. so good,

"Give."

Hui Yu foolishly looked at Lin Qiao, who was beaming with joy, and then at the little lion that was stuffed in her arms, her face was a little hesitant—hey!The role is wrong!Originally, he wanted to hit a doll handsomely and give it to her... In the end, he had to accept it, Hui Yu lowered his head uncomfortably and played with the little lion, moaning for a long time, but still awkwardly said thank you .There was a red ribbon tied around the lion cub's neck, Hui Yu thought for a while and took off the ribbon.

"this is for you."

"Ok?"

"When the hair grows, use this to tie it up."

"Return the gift? Okay, I accept it."

Lin Qiao looked at the ribbon in her palm with a smile, lowered her eyelashes and nodded.

With a few swishes, the brilliant fireworks dragged their slender tails up into the sky and then exploded. The colorful lights attracted everyone to stop and stare.Lin Qiao looked up at the fire trees and silver flowers all over the sky, her black eyes were brightened by the brilliant light, she could see so fascinated that she couldn't bear to blink her eyes.Hui Yu's gaze stayed on her side face, and at the end of the fireworks festival, without warning, she took off her mask and put it on Lin Qiao. Lin Qiao was cut off by the oncoming mask before she could ask what he was going to do. After losing all the light sources in her field of vision, there was only the huge roar of the last few fireworks exploding in her ears.

Then Hui Yu bent down and gently kissed the mask.

"Jojo, I like you."

Kissing through a mask, showing love with fireworks.

How romantic.

But you, neither see nor hear.
