[Toru Amuro] Sunflower

Then, step on the accelerator and accelerate to drive past.

Afraid of spoiling the so-called "sense of surprise", Endo really blocked all of Takigawa Aoi's trust in him, so he was as stable as Mount Tai in her series of questions, and drove the car to the villa area in the eastern suburbs.

Aoi Takikawa calmly cooperated with the police officer on the surface, but she approached the truth like a drum in her heart——

Is zero back?

The Dongjiao villa area is the proud work of "Zhenji Real Estate". It took a lot of money to hire a designer, and it took several years to build it.Each villa is independent, magnificent and exquisite, but also related to each other, with a special security system.Aoi Takikawa had heard about this project, but had never been there. Seeing it with her own eyes, she couldn't help admiring it.

Endo stopped the car, took out a key from his pocket, and handed it over with both hands: "I will deliver it here. On the 21st, your surprise is waiting for you, please."

Aoi Takigawa was even more sure that Zero had returned, her heart almost jumped out, she said "thank you" and ran all the way there.

The location of No. 21 is easy to find, but the main entrance of the villa is obviously a fingerprint lock. Holding the key, she was lost for a while, and walked around the house—this villa has a huge garden. A few splashes of bright yellow.

She finally reached the locked door, took out the key, and inserted it right in, but felt her breathing was stagnant and she dared not open it.

Over the past year, she and Zero only met three times intermittently.Zero sneaked back to see her once before she was discharged from the hospital, and then there was a short dinner, a shoulder rub with Poirot—after a while, he even quit Poirot's job, and he seemed to disappear. without a trace.

Takigawa Aoi sometimes has nightmares, dreaming that they are separated by yin and yang, sitting up clutching the wet quilt, finding out the book of poems, and copying "when you are old and grey and full of sleep" over and over again, as if this way they can grow old hand in hand, without having to meet each other early forget.

Those sweet, painful, and blurred memories came together, and she turned the key tremblingly, the lock cylinder clicked, a gust of wind blew, and the door opened by itself.

She saw a whole garden of sunflowers.

The sunflowers in early August are blooming just right, with huge stamens wrapped in tightly packed petals, and clusters of them stand proudly facing the east, vividly interpreting the meaning of life.So energetic, so brilliant, that is the flower of life like fire.

And among the flowers, the lover she thought about day and night walked over in a white shirt, as gorgeous as the light that splits the thorns, and as gentle as the pure breeze in the morning.

She walked involuntarily until she reunited with him in the flower field.

Jiang Guling knelt down on one knee, took out a ring, and said seriously: "Xiaokui, I'm back."

"Will you marry me?"

Spoiler·Birthday

When Jiang Gukui woke up, it was only a twilight outside.In the past two weeks, there were too many things in the hospital. I was working with my eyes open and closed, and my nerves were always tense.After finally taking a day off, I still woke up so early.She sighed in her heart, feeling that it was time to adjust her state, she turned her head slightly, and saw Jiang Gu Ling lying beside her.

He closed his eyes, half of his face was sunk in the pillow, his hair was messy, and his facial features seemed much softer.Jiang Gukui's agitated heart instantly calmed down, and the sense of happiness flowed silently.

This is September of their No.11 year of marriage.

But Jianggukui didn't experience the so-called "three-year pain" or "seven-year itch".To her, Jiang Gu Ling is a star, and his love and light can accompany her through billions of light years.What's more, they are busy with work, so being with them day and night is still a luxury.If there is any difference from the year when we first met, it is probably that we have slowly tasted the taste of home in love, and have always protected the most authentic and even naive side of each other.

After lying down for a while, Jiang Gukui still couldn't fall asleep, so she planned to get up quietly to prepare breakfast.

She moved slightly away, afraid of waking Jiang Guling up.Now, although he doesn't live alone as an army like before, it's only relatively relaxed, and he stayed up all night last night.

As soon as Jiang Gukui sat up, she was hugged in her arms from behind, and her warm breath passed over her shoulders.Jiang Gu Ling was still sleepy, but with a bit of cunning, he quickly kissed her on the cheek. Before Jiang Gu Kui could react, she was brought down on the bed.

"Are you awake?" Jiang Gukui asked with a smile.It's not the first time that Zero has played this kind of trick, and if she doesn't tell the truth, he becomes more and more interested every time.

"Nope." Jiang Gu Ling helped her tuck the quilt up, yawned, and said vaguely, "Why are you up so early, sleep a little longer."

"Let's go make something delicious," Jiang Gukui leaned in, and could clearly see his new stubble, "Isn't it Ye Feng's birthday today?"

Jiang Guling didn't even bother to open his eyes, and hugged her a little tighter: "I've been at home today, so I have time to prepare things."

Seeing that he didn't intend to let go, Jiang Gukui simply closed her eyes and meditated, maybe because she felt too safe, she actually fell asleep, and when she opened her eyes again, it was already dawn.The half of the bed was empty, and there was a clanging sound from the kitchen - Jiang Gu Ling had already woken up to make breakfast.

Jianggu's family has an unwritten rule that unless they are on a business trip, the family of four must sit at the dining table and have a good breakfast together.When Ling and Aoi first got married, they still lived in the city for the convenience of work.Later, Jiang Guling retired from the front line, and Jiang Gukui also transferred jobs. In addition, the development of the eastern suburbs is getting better and better. There are direct trains for both the subway and the Shinkansen. The quality of the surrounding kindergartens and elementary schools is also good. Moved to a small villa in the eastern suburbs.

No one wants to experience the feeling of gathering less and leaving more, but it is unrealistic to stick together all the time.In this way, breakfast becomes a solid bond, a grand ceremony.No matter how busy your work is, enjoy time with your family at the very beginning of the day.

Jiang Gukui went to the kitchen after washing up.

Zero was frying eggs in his apron. He had been away from Poirot for many years, but his skill at cooking hadn't changed a bit.He beat the eggs well and poured them into the pan with ease, and soon there was a "sizzling" sound in the pan.The automatic coffee machine on the side had finished working, and the aroma filled the kitchen leisurely.

Their son Furutani Yuichi was sitting at the dining table, dressed very formally and wearing a small bow tie.Hearing footsteps, he raised his head and said hello: "Morning, Mom, Dad said dinner is almost ready, just sit here and wait."

"Morning, Xiaoyou." Jiang Gukui looked around for a while, and found that there was one person missing, "Where's Ye Feng?"

"Not yet." Yuu looked in the direction of the bedroom.

In front of him was a piece of cardboard and a row of colored crayons. Just now, he was concentrating on coloring the line draft.This is one of the gifts for my sister Ye Feng.Jiang Gu Yuyi is only seven years old, but he has the temperament of an artist. Whether he reads, draws pictures or plays the piano, he sits for three or four hours at a time, and his gestures are beyond the maturity of his peers.He went to school a year earlier, but he was only in the second grade. He often read those tomes in Jiang Guling's study room, and often quoted a passage from the classics, and his words surprised everyone. This summer, he won the International Piano Competition Children's Group The champion, the elders who are more familiar with him often jokingly call him a little prodigy.

But it is not easy for Zero and Aoi to raise a baby, because Yuyi also has an uneasy younger sister Ye Feng.

The six-year-old Jianggu Yefeng is the little king of Hades in the family. When he was a child, he went to the sky and stayed up all night. The sound of crying would be heard to the next door.A little older, she is the well-known little bully in the kindergarten. Looking thin and small, she dared to fight against the boy who was two years older than her. She was covered in black and blue without shedding a single tear. She forced the other party to shout Mom ran home crying.Ye Feng didn't want to attend the class, and the children around her couldn't attend the class—because she either kicked other people's stools, or threw the origami airplane behind, or drew stick figures on the homework book at the same table.Except for his brother Youyi, Ye Feng has almost no peers and friends, which is worrying about being parents.

Jiang Gukui thought about it, but she didn't know who Ye Feng's character was like. She was naughty when she was a child, but she didn't go out of her way.So she pestered Ling Wen for three months, so that she knew all about his glorious history of fighting as a child.Jiang Gu Ling looked innocent, and the good things he said to the kindergarten teacher almost equaled the good things he said after 20 years of work. He wanted to take Ye Feng back and clean up over and over again, but his daughter was his father's lover in his previous life, so Jiang Gu Ling couldn't bear to bully him little lover.The little lover was still stubborn, knowing that he was going to be beaten, tears just rolled in his eyes, but did not fall, looking pitiful, Jiang Guling fought repeatedly and failed repeatedly, but in the end he ended up speaking nicely and reasoning.

Looking forward to the stars and looking forward to the moon, the little Hades Jianggu Yefeng is finally going to elementary school.

You Yi and Ye Feng are in the same elementary school, and the students live not too far away, and there are many neighbors in the villa area.Jiang Gu Ling was heartbroken for his daughter, and felt that he wanted to help Ye Feng make a good impression on his new classmates. He, Jiang Gu Kui, and Yu Yi, who was reliable on the surface but was actually a brat, were three cobblers. After some discussion, I decided to hold a birthday party on the first weekend of school, which happens to be Ye Feng's birthday, September No. 16, and invite nearby children to come and have fun.

At this time, Ye Feng, the protagonist of the birthday party, was lying on her princess bed in a "big" shape. She had a separate bedroom, and she also called it a kindergarten teacher to teach "learn to organize your own things" and not let family members in. So her bedroom became a pig
