[Net King + Black Basket] Seijuro, your mother calls you to go home for dinner!

Xunli's trip was like a vacation instead of a job. For the first half month, she used jet lag as an excuse to go out every day. First, she went to the dessert shop that Seijuro had been to before, and the clothing store run by Yu Kise (The other party didn't recognize her) Looked, and then aimlessly pressed the road on the busy streets of Tokyo.

The new life is not so bad, on the contrary, she enjoys being light now.Walking side by side with a group of strangers made her feel more at ease.The high-rise buildings surrounding the city seem to have remained unchanged, but the advertisements and letters flashing on the screen have changed with the times, and Xun Li feels both fresh and nostalgic.

During this period, she occasionally communicated with Jingwu by text message. The grown-up little nephew has been completely used to her presence. From the beginning, she would reply once within 10 minutes to once a day. Whenever Xun Li complained, he would always Touching the mole of tears, he raised his signature Atobe smile and said arrogantly, "Hmm~ I'm a busy man."

Except for him, Xun Li has not had the opportunity to tell anyone else about his return.She doesn't expect them all to have Jingwu's tough endurance.Dianzi?She might just faint.

But she didn't have any psychological pressure.The unlucky things that others have not experienced are basically encountered by Xun Li. Now when she hears other people complaining about their respective lives, she just smiles it lightly, thinking that it is nothing.

anyway--

Holding the list given to her by Mai in his hand, Xunli sat on the bench outside the supermarket and counted the ingredients in the plastic bag.This pseudo-foreigner with indirect cerebral convulsions doesn’t know what to do, but he wants to eat Tian/Chao hot pot in the early summer when the weather has just turned warm—and he must cook lamb at home!

She tied her hair into a loose ponytail, wore a solid-color short-sleeved T-shirt and jeans, and went out shopping with a shopping bag issued by a promotional event in the mall.It would be embarrassing for someone familiar with Xunli's identity to see her homely attire... Mrs. Akashi's wife turned into an errand aunt, even she would find it ridiculous when she thought about it occasionally.

"Sliced ​​meat, fish balls, beef basil...ah, there is still a lack of seasoning for hot pot." She tilted her head in distress for a while, the taste of mud/hongren is generally mild, and the spicy seasoning can only be found in Tian/chao food stores . "

Xun Li tilted his head in distress, thinking, and was planning to go to the next shopping place, when a few passers-by shouted in his ears——

"Someone fainted!"

"Quick—get him to the chair!"

……

Xunli stood up reflexively, noticing that the old man surrounded by several passers-by had fallen into a coma with his head on the ground.Passers-by tried to help the old man to the chair, and they were in a mess anyway.

In such an emergency, Xunli kindly stepped forward to help. Having learned basic first aid knowledge, she calmed down and signaled passers-by to call for emergency services while she and others lifted the semi-conscious old man to the bench.

Said to be an old man, he looked to be just over sixty years old.However, Xunli was not in the mood to pay attention to the other person's face. She observed the other person's state, half-squinting her glasses that were weak and out of focus.

"It looks like a stroke!" Another middle-aged man said.He kept wiping the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.

"Is there a hospital near here?"

"I've already called, and I should be there within 5 minutes!"

It was only then that Xun Li noticed the old man's attire. The decent casual suit seemed expensive, and he didn't even bring a bag, so he couldn't find anything to prove his identity.

Xunli discussed with several passers-by, and decided that she, who is currently idle, would accompany the old man to the hospital.It was the first time that Xunli caught up with the first aid process, and she was quite flustered.

"Are you... the old man's daughter?" The nurse in the ambulance looked at the old man, and then at Xunli.

"I...not. I'm just a passer-by." She waved her hand to clarify, acting quite calmly. "We called him when we saw him pass out on the road."

"Well, it's a symptom of a stroke. Fortunately, you made a timely call." The nurse nodded, and she has seen many similar incidents over the years. "Then trouble you to accompany us to the hospital."

"no problem."

Xunli's plastic bag has long been thrown away.After following the ambulance into the hospital, she went to the front desk to register and spent almost all the money in her wallet on registration fees, examinations and wards.In the current situation, she doesn't care about the money, but cares more about the state of the old man.

Fortunately, the other party had no major problems, and he was transferred to the normal ward after basic first aid measures were taken.The doctor mistook her for the old man's daughter and stood in front of her and babbled a lot.She only grasped a few key words in a long list of academic nouns. The old man himself also suffered from heart disease. Because his identity could not be confirmed, his previous medical history was not known for the time being.

She turned her head and saw the old man on the bed through the half-open door.Only now did she have the opportunity to look at the other person's face - she always felt familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before.

"Do you need to go in and see him?"

"...No need." The doctor stared at her tremblingly, and the other party probably really regarded her as the old man's family member.

To be honest, she didn't like the hospital full of the smell of disinfectant, Xunli touched her chin, and decided that a good person would not write an IOU and put it next to the old man's pillow.The only pity is that I left the ingredients at the entrance of the supermarket. Tonight's mutton hot pot is going to be ruined... What a pity.

Before leaving, she looked at the old man suspiciously. The outline of the other person's face always reminded her of a certain person's face subconsciously.

"Hmm... probably my illusion."

Xun Li shook his head, turned around and walked towards the hospital gate.Disturbed by this accident and penniless, the mood of shopping disappeared.She better go home early and cook instant noodles TAT

Undoubtedly, Xunli, who had just arrived home, was scolded by Mai after saying the first half of the sentence "The ingredients are missing", but she yelled back the second half of the sentence not to be outdone.Mai was taken aback for a moment, scolding her why she didn't say it earlier and felt sorry for the money that could not be collected.

"Stop pretending, your bonus is enough for us to sit and eat for half our lives." Xun Li rolled his eyes, "If you insist on eating hot pot, we can find a nearby restaurant."

"Forget it, just eat whatever you want." She made a concession, unbuttoned the top button of the neckline, and almost sank her whole body into the soft sofa.

"Is there anything I can help with?" Xun Li glanced at his mentally weak sister strangely, and sat down beside her.

"You also know that my mother will return to North America soon, so leave the task here to us. The main store just opened this month, and I'm preparing for next month's promotional activities."

"Propaganda?" She thought that Mai had already found many well-known models and magazines through her connections.

"It's publicity, but it can be considered a small celebration banquet. All the people invited are our investors and partners."

Following her words, Xun Li almost believed that Noriko and Sakaki Taro would be there. "They're all acquaintances, and I'll help—"

"Haha, I'm just waiting for your words!!" Mai recovered her HP instantly, and jumped up from the sofa to wrap her arms around her neck. "Before that, hurry up and explain your identity to Dianzi. You don't know that every time I face her, I always have a bitter expression that I want to poke you/get out, but I have to be careful to keep it secret!"

"Just say that you endured a lot =_=" Xunli's mouth twitched, and he pushed her arm around her neck away, "I will deal with this matter, don't worry. My experience in organizing events is better than You are rich."

"Well... there is one more thing that is a pity."

"?"

"I thought Akashi Masashi would go too, but he directly refused with the excuse of 'no time'." Mai shook her head regretfully.

"My ideal plan is to meet Xiaozheng first before meeting him." Xun Li coughed a few times to hide his embarrassment.

Although it is necessary to tie the bell to untie the bell, I have never seen such a low-level bell tier like her!

**

When Masashi received the news that his father Kenichiro was in the hospital, it was only half an hour before Xunli left.

His news network covers various industries. Hiroyuki Ninashizu, whom he met when he was young, is the director of this hospital. He happened to see Akashi Kenichiro lying on a stretcher in the corridor of the emergency room. He almost rushed back to the office to make a phone call. To Masashi.

It would be a lie to say no worries.

Yashi thinks that his relationship with his father was much better than that of his mother when he was a child.But when he grew up, he gradually alienated him for various reasons.Akashi Kenichiro may have courage and means, but in the eyes of Masashi, he will always be a man who blindly obeys Akashi Nanami, has no assertiveness and no halo.

It's not that he didn't doubt the possibility of his parents' true love for each other. Maybe they just got used to having each other's company so they didn't turn their faces and walked hand in hand for most of their lives.

Masashi closed the folder with a barely audible sigh.

"Thank you for the notice. I'll be there soon." He was not in a hurry to inform Akashi Nanami. The old couple are usually inseparable. Some kind of dispute arose.

Hiroyuki Ninzu also explained the situation of the stranger who sent Akashi Kenichiro to the hospital. According to the nurse in the emergency department of the hospital, it was a woman wearing glasses. She was extremely shocked and directly paid the registration fee and hospitalization fee.

Masashi ruled out the possibility of "acquaintances" in the next second. This attitude of doing good deeds without leaving a name is completely unlike the behavior of people he knows.

"Thanks to that stranger. If it was delivered a little later, Mr. Kenichiro's condition might be worse."

"……I see."

He hung up the phone, sat calmly and steadily on the office chair, his relaxed body leaned back slightly.Only the palm of the hand holding the phone was sweating, which betrayed his complicated and somewhat anxious mood at this time.

Undeniably, he was worried about his father's condition, and blamed himself for the fact that he was busy with work but didn't realize that Akashi Kenichiro had been sick.But at the same time, his chest was full of pleasure/sensation called "revenge".

Akashi Nanami once set up a chess game, which indirectly put Xun Li to death.Naturally, she has never experienced this kind of pain that is hard to remember and has to force herself to forget.

So, what will Akashi Nanami do when she hears that her husband's life was almost in danger?If she really cared about this man - she couldn't be unimpressed.

... As for the kind stranger.

Masashi did have the idea of ​​finding her out and thanking her, but he temporarily put the matter behind him.

There was a heartless smile on Masashi's lips, even at the last moment he couldn't stop the smokeless war with his biological mother—unfortunately, she was about to GameOver.

"I'm looking forward to your reaction... Mother."

Well, domineering president, you've turned black.

The author has something to say: I am really sorry for suddenly disappearing for so long! !

Hmm... I haven't encountered any accidents, and I haven't been stolen. The end of the world is not here yet.

Recently, I have been going crazy to review exams and catch up with homework. I am struggling with both school and social activities. I am exhausted.

Because I have too many things to do, I have never been in the mood to write, and I can’t write a funny TAT at all.

The next time it disappears will be around the end of November ~ early December, I don’t even dare to think about OTZ for the final exam

Thank you for waiting patiently for me to update TAT
