red flame and light

For some reason, the return journey always seems to be faster than the departure.

Akabane felt that he had returned to Japan from France soon, and when he stepped on the land, Akabane felt comfortable all over his body.

Sure enough, no matter how long I haven't come back, my hometown is my hometown, which is incomparable to other places.

It stands to reason that for a family like the Yan family, it would be fine to pick someone up and send a driver, but Chibane's grandparents knew that their granddaughter was coming back, so they got up early and waited outside the airport for a long time.As soon as he saw Akabane coming out of the airport, he excitedly went up to greet him.

"Oh, my baby, why do you look so thin? Didn't you eat well? What did you do, Ayan? Didn't you ask you to take good care of my heart?!" Grandma touched her face distressedly .

Akabane said helplessly: "Grandma, I have eaten well, and I haven't lost weight. I'm still the same as before, only growing taller."

The old man stood aside, with tears in his eyes, "Yes, yes, he has grown taller."

It's okay not to mention this, but when she said this, the old lady started to sob again, "When our baby grew up, he wasn't by our side."

Akabane hurriedly hugged the old lady and began to comfort her, which made the old man standing beside her jealous, but he couldn't be jealous with his own wife.

After finally comforting the old lady and "rewarding" the old man with a hug, Akabane successfully brought the two of them into the car.

In the car, Akabane talked to them about his life this past year.Although the old lady and the old man knew about Akabane's life by making regular phone calls every day, they were also very happy and willing to listen when Akabane said it face to face.

Back home, Akabane was warmly welcomed by the servants, went upstairs and returned to the room under the burning eyes of everyone.

The room remained the same, it was what it should be, it was clean and there was no dust in the corners, it was probably because grandma had someone clean it every day.Thinking of this, Akabane's nose tingled.

Akabane put down his luggage, took a bath comfortably, and found that there was a doll on his bed when he lay down on the bed.Was it prepared by grandparents?

Akabane smiled, hugged the doll, closed her eyes, and fell into a deep sleep.

After this sleep, she slept through dinner and supper, and she didn't open her eyes until the next day.It's really difficult to get jet lagged. She still feels sleepy after sleeping for so long.

I got up and washed up, then went downstairs to say hello to my grandparents.

"Xiao Yu woke up, did you sleep well last night?"

"very good."

"That's good, come and have breakfast. I saw you were so tired yesterday, so I didn't call you up. You haven't eaten all day, are you hungry?" Grandma waved to her with a smile.

Akabane walked over, said good morning to Granny Afeng, and then sat at the dining table to eat.

"Xiao Yu, have you ever thought about growing your hair? You are a girl..." Although the old lady knew that Akabane had cut her hair short after leaving the country, she always felt awkward looking at Akabane.

"Grandma, I'm a boy now, and I'll be laughed at if I grow long hair." Akabane shook his head, denying the proposal.

"But you are still not." The old lady felt uncomfortable seeing the little princess she loved since childhood suddenly turned into a teenager.

Just as Akabane was about to say something, the old man answered, "Your grandma is right, even if you changed your gender in the information, it is still not the case, and you will change it back one day."

"Then stay until the day you change it back." Akabane said so, but in fact the boss in his heart didn't want to, and thought it would be best not to change it back.

"No, if you are disobedient, I'll have someone change it back for you immediately." The old lady firmly refused to change her position on this matter.The old man also expressed his support for his daughter-in-law, so Akabane had no choice but to agree.

After the meal, Akabane casually mentioned the doll on the bed.Both the old people said they didn't know, which surprised Akabane.

The old man thought for a while, then scratched his head, and said, "Ah Xuan came here a few days ago, did he let him go?"

Akabane froze and didn't speak.

The old lady glared at the old man, and then embraced Akabane, "Don't listen to your grandpa's nonsense, we were teasing you just now, that doll was released by grandma before you came back, to give you a surprise. Xiaoyu like it? ?”

Although she knew that grandma was lying, she felt that she could accept this statement even more, so she went along with it, "Yes, I like it." Akabane breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, but was inexplicably disappointed.

Seeing that her beloved granddaughter was unhappy, the old lady glared at the old man several times, and after several unsuccessful attempts, she entrusted him with the task of making her granddaughter happy.

The old man exhausted his whole life's skills and couldn't make Akabane happy. After thinking about it, he still planned to ask for foreign help.

So, after lunch, grandpa took Akabane into the car.

"Where are we going?" Akabane looked at the old man.

"Go to Hitachi's house." The old man smiled, "I'll introduce you to two new friends."

"new friend?"

"Yeah, I heard that the old man in Hitachi Courtyard has two twin grandsons, very naughty. I haven't had a chance to see them, so I'll go with you today, make friends by the way, and have two more playmates in the future."

Very naughty?Akabane frowned almost invisibly, she didn't want to meet any naughty children.

The car made seven turns and eight turns on the road, and it took a long time to drive slowly into the compound.

Hitachi-in's house is a big house. Entering through the gate, there is a big fountain in the middle. The circular driveway makes Akabane feel that it is a waste of time. Obviously, a straight line can solve a big problem.

"Master Yan, Young Master Yan, our master is waiting for you inside." The car stopped at the entrance of the building, where there were already people standing and waiting, he bowed to the old man and Akabane, "This way, please."

Akabane followed behind the old man and followed him into the house.The decoration in the room is more court-like, with crystal chandeliers, celadon vases, red carpets on the ground, an unbelievably long corridor, and stone pillars and gray sculptures at a distance.

Akabane felt that this family was really crazy to want to live in such a place, and it was not a royal family.

Along the way, Akabane expressed that he was not used to the surrounding environment, but the old man was so used to it that he didn't even glance to the side.

Under the leadership of the butler, Akabane finally reached the destination.The housekeeper knocked on the door, and the people inside answered. After the door opened, Akabane saw an old man in gray clothes with eyes, sitting at the desk looking down at something.

"Hit Luyuan, why are you still so boring? You actually hid at home to read the contract in this weather." The old man took a step towards the inside.

"What kind of wind brought you here?" the old man of Chang Luyuan said without raising his head.

"It's nothing, take my grandson... grandson out to get some fresh air." Akabane tugged on the old man's clothes before he changed his words in time.

Only then did the old man of Hitachi look up from the pile of contracts, but his eyes were on Akabane, and Akabane also promptly said hello, "Grandpa Hitachi."

"Hello." The old man of Chang Luyuan smiled, and then looked at old man Yan, "It seems that you are blessed to have such a sensible grandson."

Speaking of Akabane, Mr. Yan expressed his special pride, "That is, everything about our Xiaoyu is good."

The old man of Hitachi laughed, walked out of the pile of contracts, and led them into the lounge next to him.The furnishing in the lounge is quite different from the outside. It has a taste of literature and art. There are Chinese landscape paintings on the wall, and there is even a tea set on the table.

"By the way, I'm here to see your two twins, let them come quickly." The moment Mr. Yan sat down, he got into the subject.

"Are you sure you want to see them?" Mr. Hitachi showed an indescribable expression.

"That's right, we Xiaoyu don't have any friends. Aren't your two children about the same age as her? It's good to make friends, and save Xiaoyu from being lonely in the future." Old Man Yan said with a smile.

Akabane: "..." Although no friends are right, grandpa, haven't you seen the subtle expression on the face of the old man of Hitachi-in?I always feel like I'm being pushed into a pit of fire.

The two Hitachi-in brothers were soon brought along.

Akabane was taken aback when he saw them, although he didn't show it on the face, but he was shocked in his heart.

The two people in front of them really look exactly alike.

"Guang, Xin, this is Grandpa Yan, and the one next to him is his grandson named Xiao Yu, right?" The old man of Chang Lu Yuan asked her to confirm.

"Yes, my name is Yan Chiyu. Hello." Chiyu looked at them, no matter how he looked at them, he still couldn't tell the difference.

The two called someone, then stopped talking and sat quietly on the side.

"Isn't this quite quiet? Changluyuan, you really don't know your blessings when you are in the blessings." Old Man Yan said with a smile.

The old man of Chang Luyuan smiled wryly, "You really blamed me."

Mr. Yan chatted with Chang Luyuan for a few more words, and found that the juniors were all sitting obediently, always feeling as if they were being tortured, so he sent them out to play, saying it was to enhance their relationship.

Akabane had no choice but to follow them out.

On the way, Akabane didn't say a word to them, and they didn't say a word to her.The atmosphere was dull.

Akabane wanted to leave, and even felt that staying in the lounge just now was much more comfortable than staying with them.She always felt that these two people had the same face and the same emotion, they seemed...not in the same world as her.

Akabane was surprised that he had such an idea, but he couldn't find another way to replace it.

"Hey, how long are you going to be with us?"

Akabane realized that she had been following the two of them when she heard the sound. She looked around and quickly looked away.She no longer knows where she is now.

"Can you tell me how to go back?" Akabane asked.

The two teenagers with the same face looked at each other, and then said in unison: "Why are we telling you how to go back?"

Akabane obviously didn't expect them to answer like this, staring at them, looking for the answer in his mind, why did they tell me?

"I'm a guest and I got lost in your house, shouldn't you show me the way?"

The two smiled and said, "You are Grandpa's guest, not our guest."

What is the logic?Akabane was a little confused, "But this is your home."

The teenagers shrugged and said "so?".

"Aren't you going to tell me how to walk back? You brought me here." Akabane said.

"No, we didn't bring you here, you followed us." One of the teenagers said.

"We're going to play now, and we don't have time to take you back." Another boy said.

Having said that, it would be a lie to say that you are not angry.But Akabane thought this was someone else's home, so he couldn't beat someone else's grandson on someone else's territory.Suppressing the anger that was about to burst out, try to calm yourself down.

"Is there a general direction?"

The two pointed in the same direction, Akabane nodded, thanked him, turned around and left.She didn't want to stay with these two people anymore, even for a second.

Facts have proved that it is very difficult for a person to find his way out when he is lost in an unfamiliar environment.Moreover, there is no one on the road in the huge "maze", which makes Akabane who wants to ask for directions feel desperate.

If this continues, when will it be possible to find a way out?

Grandpa, grandpa, hurry up and find out that I'm gone!Come and find me!
