[Comprehensive] Did Zhixi watch pretty boys today?

After Saiki Kusuo "strengthened" Zhixi's consciousness, she never entered that world from her dream again. In the blink of an eye, it has been several days since she met Madara last time. Know how the boy is doing recently, and whether he continues to grow taller.

For this new friend, she is actually very worried, knowing that the world over there is not peaceful.There were two times when Madara didn't say anything and didn't show it on his face, but Zhixi could smell a faint smell of blood from him. She didn't understand the background and rules of that world, but... she was still worried after all.

No matter how talented, no matter how proficient in the so-called ninjutsu - in Zhixi's view, Madara is just a child, let a child who is not her age live that kind of life, occasionally, Zhixi's heart also There will be some emotions similar to "unbearable", although she knows that in the eyes of Madara, it is the idea of ​​a weak person.

It's just that Saiki Kusuo foresaw that she would die because of her consciousness frequently going to that world, and in the face of such a fundamental threat, Zhixi could only make concessions.Time flows much faster over there, and Madara should have forgotten her in a short time. If so, that's a good thing. Zhixi explained herself in this way, and gradually let go of this stone.

And recently, what bothered her the most was another thing.

After mid-October, the preparation of the sports festival was officially put on the agenda, and the workload of the finance department suddenly increased a lot. As a minister, she had the power to arrange the work of the staff, but she found that several members of the finance department ...it seems that he is not willing to obey.

After observing for a period of time, Zhixi found that the members of the ministry did not intend to disobey, but more like a kind of resistance - people always hope to gain something through resistance, Zhixi thought it was probably "fairness".

Judging from what happened to her on the second day after she came to this world, Hirose Misaki in the next class—the hot girl with the short skirt, she has a good relationship with Hanin Eexi, and she entered this department because of Zhixi is here in the idle courtyard, so she doesn't deal with the work of the department because of this relationship.

To put it simply, she was a girl who entered the student union through the back door to get credits.

It's no wonder that several other people in the department are not very enthusiastic about their work.

But how can we deal with this matter so that it will not affect the work in the next period of time?Zhi Xifa was stunned for a long time, until the person beside him tapped the table in front of him before recovering.

"What are you thinking?"

Akashi Seijuro covered the pen and turned around, resting one hand on the table and looking at her intently.

Asking him about this kind of thing should be able to get a good solution-for some reason, Zhixi trusts Akashi very much in this regard, but how can I say it so that I don't look like I'm complaining or arranging?

"...Akashi-kun, if when you assign work to the student council, a classmate with whom you have a good personal relationship is passive and sabotages, how would you deal with this situation?"

In the end, Zhixi chose to erase her personal information and asked vague questions.

Akashi, on the other hand, had a look that he had expected a long time ago, and he lowered his chin knowingly, "Are you talking about Hirose-san?"

"...Well, Akashi-kun is amazing."

"It's just been mentioned before." The young man took a sip of the tea in his cup, with a calm expression, "This kind of thing can't be handled properly just because you avoid it, you need to take the initiative to make a choice. What's more important, work or personal relationship, How to make friends with other people with the posture of a high-ranking person-have you ever thought about these things?"

Zhi Xi shook her head blankly, and said, "I just think that if you don't encounter matters involving principles in interpersonal communication, you usually give in if you can, otherwise it will be a bit ugly...Is this wrong?"

The girl's style of doing things is very extreme, and Akashi has long noticed this.Her sudden outbursts of ruthlessness, and her ability to turn things around in a flash, can be called a strength in some cases, but it's not a well-established and mature way of doing things.

"Why did Zhixi ask me this?" Akashi didn't answer her directly, but threw another question.

"Uh... because I think Akashi-kun is a very powerful person, in various senses."

Zhixi moved closer to him, and said seriously: "Akashi-kun is different from the people I used to know, he is... well, a very mature and rational person, so I think it's appropriate to ask Akashi-kun about this kind of thing." Can't go wrong."

He is different from things rather than people, Zhi Xi can feel it.Ning would teach her many things, but few of them were personal.Color is just a pure description of the matter itself, but Akashi points out the key points in a straight-forward way. He will guide her way of thinking and thinking habits to develop in a better direction.

Akashi Seijuro was slightly taken aback.

He didn't expect that one day he would get such an evaluation from her. He had heard the words countless times from other people's mouths, but when they came out of the girl's mouth, they had a different color.

Akashi tilted his head, with a smile at the end of his eyes, "Thank you, then can I think that Zhixi, who will ask me for help in this regard, is relying on me?"

He saw the ignorance in the girl's eyes after hearing this question, and the expression of about to fall into a state of contemplation after that, and interrupted her trance in a timely manner, "People don't have to retreat, and the road is difficult. Besides, feelings One thing can never be maintained by making concessions."

Having said that, enough is enough.

Zhi Xi blinked, probably having an answer in her heart.

"You seem to be in better shape recently."

Seeing that Yuki's eyes gradually cleared up, Akashi knew that she had no problem with Misaki Hirose, so he turned to another topic.

"Ah," Zhi Xi was taken aback, "Yes, because there is a problem that has been temporarily resolved."

"Is it because of Saiki Kusuo?"

The young man's tone was light.

Zhi Xi's heart skipped a beat.

That day at the dessert shop, why did Saiki Kusuo suddenly put on the hat of "ex-boyfriend" on himself? Kee couldn't figure it out, and didn't dare to ask deliberately. Although Akashi didn't ask anything until today, but Sure enough, I still care.

"Akashi-kun is really sharp." Zhixi couldn't help explaining, "Actually, Kusuo-kun is not my ex-boyfriend, he was joking that day."

Although it doesn't seem to give Saiki Kusuo face to directly expose it like this, but she doesn't want to be misunderstood more than those Zhixi. She doesn't have an ex-boyfriend, and only an incumbent who will be born in a hundred years. Thinking of this, she smiled and added : "Kusuo-kun is a very good person, he helped me a lot, Akashi-kun, you don't have to..."

do not worry about it.

Zhi Xi didn't say this, because she suddenly realized that such a conversation was very strange.

——Why did she subconsciously think that Akashi Seijuro would care about her ex-boyfriend?

"Seijuro."

"……what?"

"Call me Seijuro." The red-haired boy raised his head and looked over fixedly, "I will care about this."

It was as if he understood what she hadn't finished saying.

——No, no, the point is not here.

The person who said this was Akashi Seijuro, and Keiyu froze, such a situation made her feel very unbelievable...but there was a bit of inexplicable familiarity.

"……OK."

"there's one more thing,"

Zhi Xi watched the boy leaning over slowly, the distance between the two got closer, so close that she could almost count his eyelashes.Akashi's eyebrows are very deep, and the position and proportion of the facial features are just right, like a delicate and beautiful meticulous painting.

"——Don't be like this in front of me in the future, and praise other boys without hesitation, Zhixi."

Akashi knew that at the dessert shop that day, the "ex-boyfriend" said by the boy named Saiki Kusuo who was seven points similar in appearance to him was a lie. The look on the girl's face was too surprised.

But that didn't stop him from worrying.

Especially after he saw that it was a lie, she didn't explain it immediately but wanted to blur it - no matter what the reason was, Akashi felt extremely upset.So what about the lies, he just cares, just like he is accounting for the different names of the two girls, not to mention their appearance is so similar, when he gets into the horns, he can't help but wonder if she ever looked through him that person.

How childish.

Many times even he himself can't help but laugh.

Zhi Xi opened her mouth, she didn't need to pretend to be stupid after she had said so much, but she swallowed the words on the brink of a precipice.

Seijuro...do you like me?

She bit her lip hard, not letting a word escape.

Because just now, she suddenly remembered something, or a person.

The ceiling lights, the paper towels stained with jam, the hands tying shoelaces.

And that look from the bottom up.

Such a mood is very strange, like going through an old photo after many years.It's been more than a month since I left that world, but it seems like many years have passed.

"...What is it like when you like someone?"

Finally, she asked, "Mr. Huang Se said that I like this kind of emotion. I can't help but want to laugh when I see a person, and I can't help but want to get close but I don't dare. Is it like this?"

Akashi raised his eyelids and looked at her, his eyes were calm, with a little "gentleness" in them, "Do you want to ask how I feel about you—or, do I like you?"

It is rare for Akashi Seijuro to discuss such a pink and girly topic.

But, if it's her, he doesn't think there's anything wrong with it.

The young man raised his eyebrows slightly, and took a full look at the astonished expression on the face of the person opposite, "Is it strange? Zhi Xi, I thought you already knew that I like you."

"...But, what do you like about me?"

After the initial shock, Zhi Xi quickly regained her composure. This is not the first time she has experienced this kind of situation, but this time she was directly told her mind - she originally planned to make a detour, so she was a little at a loss for a while.

But the question she just asked has been bothering her for a long time: what do they like about her?

Why do humans have this emotion of liking for other humans?

"If this question was so easy to answer, there wouldn't be so many emotional disputes in the world."

The boy's tone was relaxed and almost teasing, as if he was chatting and joking with her.

"As for why I like you..." Akashi looked away, and looked quietly at the green plants placed in the corner of the desk, "Eexi, even if I were to answer this question face to face... I can't say I'm shy , but it does feel uncomfortable."

"Hug, sorry..."

"You're probably the only one who would apologize for something like this."

Akashi chuckled, and looked back at her, seemingly a little helpless, "Even I thought that when I met someone I liked, I would plan carefully and plan everything carefully so that she would also fall in love with me. "

"Being arrogant, I never thought I'd ever be upset about something like this until now."

"But only in your matter, I can't be so calm and patient."

His pupils shrank and dilated slightly, as if he felt a little disbelief about the words he was about to use.

He didn't want to say that word, but he really lost for no reason in this game.

"I'm afraid I... won't make it in time."

[So even though you pushed me away that day, I never thought of backing down. ]

[So during this period of time, my eyes have always followed you, and I am afraid that those unreasonable disasters will befall you again if I don't notice for a while. ]

[I don't know what you're dealing with, but I know why you choose to be alone. ]

[--I do not want to. ]

In all the conversations he had with her, she never once mentioned her thoughts on the future.

She never seemed to think about the future—why?

Only this question, Akashi Seijuro didn't dare to think about it.

He looked at the girl's stunned expression, and a loose smile appeared in his eyes again, "Sorry, did I scare you?"

"..."

Zhi Xi opened her mouth, but just shook her head.

She felt...unbelievable.

The halo around him was removed, and Akashi Seijuro at this time was just a quiet, elegant and pure boy.

She stared at him blankly, somewhat unable to explain how she felt in her heart at this moment.The Akashi in front of her is completely different from the side he showed in the past. She can feel that he is an extremely real, vivid and rich person.

Yes, rich.

His five senses are vigorously developed, and each of them can extend infinite possibilities of surprises and expectations. There is no need to have any burden when talking to this kind of him. People are like spring breeze.

One can imagine what an amazing man he will become in a few years - he is already very dazzling now.

Zhixi thought for a while, and stretched out her hand to hug Akashi.

It was a feather-light hug that took mere seconds from start to finish.

For Xianyuan Zhixi, but also for herself, she thought.

The language is too thin, and she doesn't know how to speak to express her feelings.

"...I'm not scared, I'm just a little bit, I don't know how to react."

When she let go of Akashi, Keeyu raised her head and looked into those ruby-like eyes, with a smile in her voice, "It's a great honor to be liked by such an amazing Seijuro."

There was light falling in the girl's eyes, and after being refracted by the pupils, a little light gold sprinkled on the pearl-like whites of the eyes, twinkling like amber of the highest purity.The ends of the eyes are very long, the lines are slender and smooth, and the eyes flow like butterflies fluttering. Down is a small and delicate nose and rosy lips.

Just like an extremely expensive doll, made of ceramics, it needs to be handled and collected carefully.

But this kind of her pushed away everyone around her without hesitation, and faced all the unreasonable disasters without fear.

Akashi's gaze moved down, and landed on the palm of Zhixi's unclasped left hand. There was an unhealed wound on it, which was cut by a knife in the cooking class not long ago.

At that time, the girls surrounded her—unknowingly, she had made friends with most of the class—and warned her to be careful in the future.

That's not something you can avoid by being careful.

The girl covered the wound with one hand, blinked at them and smiled, saying that she was fine.

But the wound was not shallow, almost to the bone.

She didn't even frown.

"So that was my reward just now?"

Akashi broke free from the memory and raised his eyebrows.

"No... well, you can think so too."

"That's not enough."

"Huh? What do you want—"

Zhi Xi raised her head and was about to ask, but her words were blocked.

The cold breath was originally overwhelming, but after being stimulated by the heat from the body temperature, it deteriorated instantly, so it was noisy and burned.

Akashi let go of her, stretched out his index finger to caress his lips, and the fingertips touched a little sticky.

"I'm sorry for messing up your lipstick." He chuckled, there was no trace of apology in his voice, it was all taken for granted.Looking down at his fingertips, there is a faint red on them, "What I want, I have just withdrawn it."
