designer who lives in the next room

Asuka Kimura nodded without opening her mouth, motioning for Yui to continue talking.

"In Nanako's eyes, Li Zixi is a heartless little girl with a little princess temper. She has never seen that Li Zixi is actually a person who is prone to cranky thoughts." Yui explained to Kimura Asuka, Regarding these things, Asuka Kimura can also tell, "Nanako is a person who doesn't know how to judge people."

After saying this, Yui quickly waved his hand, and apologized to Kimura Asuka who had a dark face.

"I didn't talk about you again."

Yui said this to Kimura Asuka.

"That's why Li Zixi, who loves to think a lot, met you and heard you talk about Nanako's past. Of course, she would think why Nanako refused to tell you, why did you mention Nanako's past to her again?" Yui looked at Woke up a little thirsty, picked up the cocktail in hand and drank half of it in one gulp, "Also Li Zixi knew that you were Nanako's ex-girlfriend, of course you two have known each other for a long time."

"Is Li Zixi angry because of these things?" Kimura Asuka also picked up the wine glass, but she still couldn't take a sip like Yui.

"It was like this at the beginning. She was really angry because Nanako kept her past from her and didn't tell her. When she asked Nanako about her past face to face, Nanako didn't say a word for a long time. You should also see it, Nanako There is something wrong with her waist." Yui looked at her counter, and Kimura Asuka didn't know what she was looking at, but just followed her gaze.

"I can see that, her waist looks hurt." Asuka Kimura nodded, when she waited for Nanako in her shop, Nanako would indeed frown and cover her waist from time to time.

"That's because of Li Zixi, that child pushed Nanako, and Nanako's waist was placed on the table." Yui continued, the watch on the wall has been gone for another hour, and there is still no one in his shop .

"Is Li Zixi so cruel?" When Kimura Asuka said this, she had a smile on her face, "But Nanako should deserve it, she can't tell her past."

Yui looked at Kimura Asuka, and Yui didn't know what Nanako was like in the past, but she could tell from Kimura Asuka's mouth that Nanako must have been a bad guy in the past.

"But just because Nanako didn't tell Li Zixi about her past, Li Zixi became so angry, it shouldn't be." Kimura Asuka looked into Yui's eyes, and she got a positive answer from Yui's eyes.

"I said it just now, it's because of you." Yui looked at Kimura Asuka's face with interest.

"Me?" Kimura Asuka pointed to herself.

"Yeah, it's Nanako herself to say the least." Yui patted Yui's shoulder, "You said, if you and your girlfriend, ah, or boyfriend quarreled, then you must hope that the other party immediately Come to you or you will go to the other party immediately instead of going to someone else?"

Asuka Kimura nodded, indeed, if she had a fight with her significant other, of course she wouldn't want the other half to find someone other than her.

"That's right, it's something everyone can understand, right?" Yui looked at Kimura Asuka with a "that's it" expression, "But Nanako ran to find you first."

"Eh?" Asuka Kimura looked at Yui's face, not knowing what to say.

"Then, Li Zixi thought that Nanako was tired of staying with her, and she just ran to find you after arguing with her. That child seemed to be thinking like this all the time when she locked herself in the room." Yui Sighing, "Then Nanako ran to find you, and when she came back, she stood at the door of Li Zixi's room and mentioned your name."

"Ah..." Asuka Kimura scratched her face, "No wonder..."

"I thought Nanako was a pretty smart person." Yui drank the last half of the cocktail, "It turns out that people who are in love are idiots."

"Maybe." Kimura Asuka echoed Yui, and she finally drank half of the cocktail Yui gave her.

"Now you know the subtle relationship between Nanako and Li Zixi." Yui looked at Kimura Asuka's face, and she had a smile that didn't know what to mean, "Both of them are younger than me, Li Zixi Fortunately, Nanako was kicked out by her family, and I treat her like a younger sister."

"Then Nanako is really lucky." Asuka Kimura said, but she only said this.

"If it's possible, can you talk to Li Zixi, I don't think Li Zixi will care about Nanako recently." Yui put her hand on Kimura Asuka's shoulder, "From the standpoint of a sister, I I don't want to make Nanako sad, and of course I don't want their relationship to break down."

Asuka Kimura nodded, "But will Li Zixi meet me? After all, they became like this because of me."

"I'm talking about if it's possible." Yui's expression relaxed a lot, and she patted Kimura Asuka's shoulder a little harder, "Okay, I've also told you the reason why the two of them are angry, I I want you to help me and tell you."

"Well, I know..." Asuka Kimura nodded, but before she finished speaking, Yui blocked her mouth with her fingers.

"So should you explain, why did you mention Nanako's shameful past to Li Zixi?" Yui moved her face closer to Kimura Asuka's, and Kimura Asuka stepped back.

"What do you mean, it was just by chance..." Asuka Kimura was a little flustered, but she calmed down quickly. When he answered this, his eyes were looking out of the window, not Yui's eyes.

"If meeting Li Zixi was accidental, then how coincidental is it to think of Nanako's past by accident, and to mention it to Li Zixi by accident? Don't you think so?" Yui put her hand on Kimura Asuka's On the scene, she had a smile on her face, which put great psychological pressure on Kimura Asuka.

"I, I'm just afraid, I'm afraid that Nanako is just..." Kimura Asuka didn't continue, and she would tell Nanako's secret if she continued.

"Are you afraid that Li Zixi's relationship with Nanako is just for fun?" Yui looked into Kimura Asuka's eyes and said something that shocked Kimura Asuka.

When Asuka Kimura heard Yui's "also", she couldn't help shivering.

"What do you mean..." Kimura Asuka asked Yui in a low voice.

"Well, if this is the case, if you are really afraid that Nanako just wants to play with Li Zixi, you will tell her all about Nanako's past and tell her to be careful." Yui took Kimura Asuka's hand, "Say it That's right, why did you do this, because you were abandoned by Nanako in the past."

Kimura Asuka looked at Yui, and Yui could tell that her eyes were a little dazed.

"Nanako used to have the same smell as you." Yui explained to her with a smile, "One day it suddenly disappeared, and then she told me with a dark face that she had already dumped her girlfriend."

"It's you, right?"

"I..." Asuka Kimura couldn't say anything.

"Back to the previous topic, if you were worried about Li Zixi, you definitely wouldn't remind her like this, because you would definitely hate Nanako, and of course you wouldn't keep a secret for her." Yui looked at Kimura Asuka, " And you also like to talk about Nanako, so it means that deep down in your heart, you still hope that Nanako will return to you one day."

Asuka Kimura shook her head weakly, but this does not mean negation at all, Yui saw through her heart, and what Yui said in few words was what Asuka Kimura thought in her heart.

"That's why people in love are idiots." Yui gently patted Kimura Asuka's lowered head.

"I'm pretty accurate in judging people." Yui patted Kimura Asuka's head while looking out the window. The street lights were orange, but they looked quite bleak.

Volume [-] #like snowflakes

The weather is cold, and the business of the bar has really become very deserted. The money earned in a day is almost not enough for the electricity bill for a day. Yui originally thought about whether to close the bar in winter. Anyway, she also felt that the road was very cold. .

The temperature should have been below zero, the water on the road has frozen, the speed of the car has slowed down, and the pedestrians on the road are also cautious when walking.

On the one hand, a fall really hurts, and on the other hand, no one wants to be the laughing stock of those who walk with them.

It is really rare to go out alone now. Yui has not seen many people strolling alone on the road so far this winter.

Contrary to the bar, the maid cafe where Natsume Haruko is located is still full of people.

Natsume Haruko’s maid cafe is located near Akihabara, and they usually open until late, but it’s not too late, because Akihabara has everyone, so it’s better to let girls stay too late Not very safe.

Natsume Haruko is on the evening shift today, and there is a constant stream of people in the store, basically a little girl greets customers at two or three tables, but Natsume Haruko is currently leaning against the door of the warehouse and playing with her mobile phone.

Her brows were a little frowned, and she kept tinkering with the new mobile phone that she changed not long ago.

She used to use a flip phone all the time before, but she was still a little uncomfortable when she suddenly changed to a smart phone.

But what puzzled her the most was that she hadn't responded to Li Zixi's text messages these two days, and the phone was turned off even when she called.

Natsume Haruko vaguely knew that something must have happened to Li Zixi, and this was what made her very worried. She had a stomachache when she was doing business with the store manager, and she ran out alone just to make a call to Li Zixi, but she finally found time to make a call. On this call, the other party is still turned off.

Seeing that the time was almost up, she just came out to go to the toilet. The store manager would definitely be angry if she went back late. Haruko Natsume sighed and put the mobile phone into a small bag specially tied to her lap. This is her Made it for myself so that I don't have to keep my phone on my chest like everyone else.

Natsume Haruko has been a little out of her mind recently, and the people next to her can see it, because they are also very strange. Usually, the girl Natsume Haruko likes will be taken to the coffee shop by her to have a cup of coffee the next day, but other small But the girl didn't see Natsume Haruko bringing Li Zixi over.

Some people are actually quite curious about this matter, but no one has talked about it with Natsume Haruko, because after all, it is Natsume Haruko's own business, and although Natsume Haruko usually looks very gentle and considerate However, they have more or less heard that Natsume Haruko is actually a dark-bellied and somewhat sickly character.

In this store, there are also people who have worked with Natsume Haruko for about the same time. They still have a good relationship with Natsume Haruko. They occasionally go out to the shopping mall together when they are not working, but even these people did not ask Natsume Haruko. About Li Zixi.

When Natsume Haruko just returned to the store, her complexion was not very good, but knowing that she was working in a maid cafe, she immediately put on a very cute smiling face when she saw a customer. This is probably Natsume Haruko's face here Maybe that's why it's so popular in maid cafes.

The store manager is a little concerned about Natsume Haruko's physical condition. Although the store manager is usually a strict person, he will still be very worried if the little girl in his store is not feeling well.

Natsume Haruko just gave a random reason for making a phone call, but when the store manager came over to ask her about her health, Natsume Haruko still pretended to have a stomachache, frowned and shook her head.

The store manager pondered for a while, and told Natsume Haruko that she could go back. The store manager also specifically told her that even if she went back earlier today, she would not be deducted from her money because of insufficient working hours.

So Natsume Haruko quickly changed into casual clothes, and left the maid cafe under the admiring gaze of the boys in the shop.

The boys in the store have to say that they are still a little disappointed, because many people come here for a drink just to have a look at Natsume Haruko, a lovely maid. The food here is expensive and tastes bad.

"This is probably an otaku." Natsume Haruko still had a smiling face when she left the store, but it turned into a slightly bored expression when she closed the door.

If it weren't for the high hourly wages here, she wouldn't work here.

She is not interested in anything like animation. She originally wanted to be a pastry chef. She came to work here to save enough money early and learn to make pastry.

Natsume Haruko doesn’t like fat boys who print girls and sisters in cartoons on their clothes. Those people are talking about animations and voice actors. Natsume Haruko doesn’t understand it at all, but she still has to discuss it with them, because The maid cannot resist the words of the master, and everyone who comes here to consume is the master.

The wind outside is really strong. The clothes Natsume Haruko is wearing today have no hat. She can hear the wind whizzing by her ears now. Her ears hurt a little from the cold. The phone in her pocket has never rang, and she begins to regret it At that time, I didn't ask Li Zixi for her address.

But she thought about it again, Li Zixi had a girlfriend, even if she asked Li Zixi like that, she probably wouldn't tell her.

Natsume Haruko's prey in the past were girls who didn't have girlfriends, or girls who didn't like girls at first. She could slowly bend her for such a person, but this kind of girl likes girls as much as herself Yes, and the little girl who has a girlfriend has no idea how to get it herself.

She suddenly wanted to see what Li Zixi's girlfriend looked like, whether she was tall or short, fat or thin, whether she was a high-income class or an ordinary office worker, or a student at school. Natsume Haruko didn't know anything about Li Zixi's girlfriend at all. , so she didn't find a little room to start.

Even though she thought so, Natsume Haruko didn't know Li Zixi very well. When she chatted with Li Zixi by text message before, she sent a lot of words and the other party only replied a few words. She could feel the kind of perfunctory look Li Zixi didn't know her intention of getting close to her, and she also thought that Li Zixi should be tired of being with her girlfriend at that time.

Natsume Haruko has never talked about her preferences with Li Zixi, she doesn't know what Li Zixi likes or dislikes, she only knows that Li Zixi is Chinese, she came to Japan to take the postgraduate entrance examination, she knows that she likes girls, and she is easy to talk to that type.

This is the only thing Natsume Haruko knows about Li Zixi. She has never met a girl like this before. This kind of Li Zixi who looks very innocent and looks a little silly really makes her a little fond of it, so she made up her mind She made up her mind to pull Li Zixi to her side.

The wind suddenly became weaker, and Natsume Haruko could finally take a deep breath, but soon she saw very white and beautiful snowflakes floating down from the sky.

It’s snowing. Natsume Haruko has been waiting for this day for a long time. She likes snowy winter the most. When she sees snowflakes, she immediately forgets the otaku in the store. She catches a snowflake with her hands, but It melted immediately, so she used her sleeves so that the snowflakes could last a little longer, which gave Natsume Haruko time to watch the snowflakes carefully.

The people around seem very excited too, the most interesting thing in winter is seeing snowflakes.

Many children around me opened their mouths to try to let snowflakes fall into their mouths, but they finally gave up the idea under the restraint of their family members.

Because although the snowflake looks very white, it actually contains a lot of dirty things, and there is an invisible black in the snowflake's body.

Natsume Haruko suddenly remembered that when she was in high school, someone said that she was like a snowflake, but that was said by a girl who didn't have a good relationship with her.

"So that's what it means." Natsume Haruko looked at the snowflakes on her sleeve, and suddenly patted them all on the ground.

The snow suddenly fell heavily, and many people around took out their mobile phones to share the first snow of this winter, but Natsume Haruko didn't pay attention to any snowflakes any more.

She went to the vending machine and bought a bottle of coffee. The instant coffee here is better than the one sold in the store, she thought.

She sat on a bench that she wiped dry, which was close to her home.

She lives alone. She moved from Akita Prefecture to Tokyo alone during college. Her major was a modeler, but she wanted to be a pastry chef. She dropped it to learn pastry and save money. A lot of homework.

She is still a college student, the kind who is about to graduate, she sits on a chair and looks at her home in the distance.

She has a feeling that she can't graduate from university smoothly. Even if she passed the thesis smoothly, she still has no clue about her graduation project. She always feels that she should not engage in this kind of career that has something to do with architecture.

Soon there was snow on the road, and the street lights made the street very bright. Many children who should be doing homework at home ran out to feel the happiness brought by the snow.

When they were laughing and laughing all the way to Natsume Haruko's side, Natsume Haruko gave them a very unfriendly look, then crushed the empty cafe in her hand, and threw it into the trash can beside her inside.

It seemed that she was very dissatisfied that these children came to disturb her peace of being alone.

From here, it is my own home, rented, very cheap rent, not even heating.

Natsume Haruko sighed, she didn't know if her dream could come true, her family opposed her becoming a pastry chef.

She sighed again, and took out the cell phone in her pocket to check, but there was still no text message or call, and she didn't know how to pursue Li Zixi, the Chinese girl who made her miss him day and night.

Volume [-]#Winter night is always lonely

In Yui's bar, Kimura Asuka looked at the half glass of cocktail in front of her and thought about it. Yui's eyes on people were really sharp. This was the first time she saw Kimura Asuka, so Nanako would never have lived with Yui Talk more about yourself.

Kimura Asuka is now a little afraid of the woman beside her.

She tried to find some words of excuse, she took out a cigarette and lit it for herself, Yui beside her didn't seem in a hurry, holding an empty wine glass, playing with the few pieces of crushed ice left in the glass.

"Well, I don't know your name yet." The more you don't speak, the more embarrassing it becomes. Kimura Asuka found a topic to try to ease the atmosphere.

Yui glanced at Asuka Kimura, and must have seen through Asuka Kimura's psychological plan, but this bar will be open all night, so it looks like no one will come today, so it's better to drink this Asuka Kimura If you chat more, you won't feel bored.

"Just call me Yui. In terms of age, I'm older than you guys, so it's not too much to call me older sister." Yui smiled and said to Kimura Asuka, "But with your personality I'm sure you won't call me older sister, so it's better to call me Yui."

When Yui said this, he got up and went to the counter to get another bottle of wine that can be drunk directly without mixing, poured himself a glass, then raised the bottle, looked at Kimura Asuka, "Do you want some more?" ?”

Kimura Asuka quickly shook her head, there was still half of the glass left, she really didn't like drinking, so she declined Yui's kindness.

Yui smacked his mouth, "How can you tell a story without drinking some wine?"

"Ah? I didn't say I wanted to tell you my story." Asuka Kimura took another sip of wine, wondering if this cocktail is just like this, the more the drink goes down, the stronger the taste, Asuka Kimura couldn't help frowning , "We don't know each other well, do we?"

Yui nodded, "It's true that I'm not familiar, but since you came to my shop, we are destined, don't you think?"

Yui put her hand on Kimura Asuka's hand, and pinched her lightly, this action scared Kimura Asuka to quickly withdraw her hand.

"Well, Yui, did you drink too much?" Kimura Asuka looked at Yui's face, her face was indeed reddened, but Kimura Asuka didn't know whether it was because Yui drank too much or the red color of the bar The reason for the lighting.

"Do you think I'm a bar owner, and two glasses of wine can bring me down?" Yui held back a smile and looked at Asuka Kimura's face, "If you say you can't drink, that person should be Nanako. Should have known it?"

Nanako can't drink, it can be said that she is the kind who will get drunk after a drink. Asuka Kimura still knows it, she nodded, and she thought of what Yui said before.

"Are you hoping that Nanako will come back to you one day?" Yui's voice echoed in Kimura Asuka's ear, and she didn't want to discuss about Nanako anymore.

"Well, it's getting late today, and I have to go to work tomorrow..." Kimura Asuka didn't dare to look at Yui's face, she drank the rest of the wine in one go, and then put down the drink, which must have surpassed this glass of wine and the one just now The amount of money for coffee, after bowing to Yui, he slipped out of Le Bar directly.

Yui didn't chase it out either, she just threw the money left by Asuka Kimura into the drawer on the counter and poured herself another glass of wine.
