About the fact that I unintentionally raised my sister to be a cripple

call.

As if breathing a sigh of relief, his chest rose and fell with his breathing.

The palm of her hand seemed to still retain the warmth of her tiny arm, and the itching sensation of the girl's hair scratching her cheek with the sound of her breathing seemed to remain in her heart.

The sweet aroma of green apple mixed with matcha lingers in your mouth.

Last night is still fresh in my memory.

Sakakibara knew that it was the first time he took the initiative to kiss Nanamiyue.

I had just woken up and was lying on the bed, and I still had endless memories of her.

She refused and hesitated.

I wonder if I should be the kind of scumbag who takes the initiative.

But in the end, they still kissed each other.

If I remember correctly, he kissed her three times, right?

The breath enters the brain for a long time, the softness of the girl and the contact of the girl who is committed to herself are so sweet that one can forget time.

It only seemed like a few minutes, but in fact it was almost twenty minutes of kissing.

Very comfortable.

Extremely comfortable.

When I kissed him, I wanted to kiss her again, and I wanted to taste her a little more.

Sakakibara lay on the bed, his mind filled with Nanami Mingzuki's emotionless but distant expression.

On the winter night, the neon lights reflect the eyes, the impeccable cheeks, and the cold and sincere gaze.

The lights of Tokyo's commercial streets flickered, and the lines of her cheeks were clearly outlined.

The more this image appeared in my mind, the softness of her arms became more obvious in her hands, and the sweetness remaining on her lips became more mellow.

He reached out and touched his lips.

Sakakihara knew that he wanted to kiss her again at this moment.

He couldn't help laughing and laughed at himself: "It seems that he is really a scumbag."

After getting up and going to wash up normally, Sakakibara accidentally met her.

She stood in front of the sink in the bathroom, wearing fluffy shark pajamas, and her flaxen hair was tied back into two ponytails. It looked like he had just washed his face with hot water, his hair on both sides was slightly messy, and his face had a sheen that was wet with water.

Even without any cosmetics, her skin is alluring.

Sakakihara Raku pretended to go to the toilet, but in fact he secretly looked at her face.

Just as she passed by, the aroma of green apples swayed gently, making people feel itchy.

After coming out of the toilet, she was still standing there, twisting the washcloth in her hands.

Sakakihara Raku couldn't help but want to see her. She was usually awe-inspiring and beautiful standing here, and her cherry-pink lips reminded him of the scene on the bench last night.

He wanted to hug her waist from behind. This was what he was told in his heart.

"Someone has been looking at me since just now." Tianhai Qimingyue said to the figure behind her in the mirror in front of the sink. She quickly turned her gaze away, giving Sakakibara Raku a delicate and emotionless profile.

Sakakihara Raku only thinks it looks good, and the pajamas and twintails are particularly good-looking.

"What should I answer?"

"I just think someone's lust is wrong," Tianhai Qi Mingyue reached out and pulled some of the hair soaked in hot water by her ears, pulled away the washcloth, and walked in front of him.

The girl raised her head and looked up at him.

There are no words, but Tianhai Qimingyue's eyes seem to be able to peer into people's hearts. Soon, the polished lips faintly uttered three words:

"Want to kiss me?"

The sound was cold, yet extremely pleasant, as if the wind was blowing by my ear.

It's like rejection, but also like invitation and temptation.

It's amazing.

"I'd be lying to myself if I said I didn't want to."

Sakakibara wanted to reach out and put his arms around her waist, but was slapped back by Nanami Nanami.

"Isn't it okay?"

"You can't spoil a man. I spoiled you too much yesterday."

Sakakihara Raku's hand suddenly became tense.

That's not what you said, aunt.

We kissed last night, and from now on you will kiss me the hardest, okay?

But look at how she looks now.

Okay, Qimingyue is still Qimingyue.

The awe-inspiring yet beautiful flower of the high mountains.

You can't touch someone like her every day.

"Are you still thinking about what happened yesterday? Don't get me wrong, that's just a reward I gave you." Tianhai Qi Mingyue said expressionlessly, "In addition to better physical fitness, people who are weaker than me in all aspects can have nothing in front of me. The right to speak, simply put, you are trash.”

After being scolded with a venomous tongue, Sakakihara Raku felt that Miss Tenkai was really cute.

He quite liked her condescending and self-respecting attitude.

"You really can't kiss?"

Tianhai Qimingyue glanced at him and became interested: "Okay, call me Qi Mingyue's mother first. You can also call me mother alone."

"Why do you still care so much about this title?"

"You can understand that the radiance of motherhood wants to shine on you."

What a mess.

Sakakihara Raku would never agree to it anyway.

Tianhai Qimingyue saw that he had no reaction and didn't care. At the same time, he had no intention of continuing this topic.

"The last day of November is my sister-chan's birthday, right?"

"That's it. Are you going to prepare a gift for her?" Sakakihara didn't know why she suddenly talked about this.

"Of course there are gifts, but do you still remember what dad said to you?"

Sakakihara thought carefully and had no clue.

"What is it?"

"He said he would take you back to Tianhai's house to visit."

Sakakibara frowned, pinched his chin and thought carefully:

"It seems that I said that on your birthday, yes, that's the day. My uncle said he would take me to Tianhai's house to see him when he has time."

"This time just happens to be my sister-chan's birthday."

Sakakibara was slightly surprised and guessed: "Uncle is planning to celebrate her birthday at Amami's house?"

"That's the plan."

"How old is your Tianhai family?"

"It's very big. Grandpa alone has ten children. And grandpa likes open spaces, including hot springs and gardens."

Sakakibara remembered that Uncle Amami said that he had nine sisters.

The last youngest seems to be the same age as Qi Mingyue and the others.

"Then it's really big enough and we're going to hold a banquet then?"

"If nothing else, that's it."

"Will the people who come then be the kind of people -"

"As you think, you are either rich or noble." Tianhai Qi Mingyue waved her hand and said, "I will tell you directly. The main purpose is to tell the outside world about the remarriage of dad and aunt, so that they know that dad is married, and At the same time, I would like to introduce you and sister Jiang to everyone. Of course, this is grandpa’s idea, and dad doesn’t like such a big fanfare.”

"Why do you have such an idea?" Sakakihara was curious.

"Dad doesn't like that kind of atmosphere. He won't go to the banquet unless necessary. Let me put it simply. Dad doesn't want to be the eldest son of the Tianhai family. He is very disgusted with it. He is very concerned about taking over the Tianhai family's industry. Resistance, he likes to be more free and ordinary, which is one of the reasons why dad and aunt got married."

Uncle Tianhai and my mother are fundamentally not in the same social class.

If Uncle Tianhai hadn't disliked that kind of atmosphere, it would have been impossible for him to marry my mother.

Uncle Tianhai's family would not agree either.

When getting along, there will indeed be differences in status and knowledge.

Thinking about it carefully, no wonder my mother is always studying and reading when she is in love.

The emotional mother wants to catch up with Uncle Tianhai!

It is what Tianhai Qimingyue said, "a little ordinary".

Well, for a behemoth like Tianhai Pharmaceutical, Uncle Tianhai's life is indeed ordinary enough.

"What do you think of the relationship between dad and aunt?"

"I think it's pretty good."

Although they are busy, they are also very happy when they are busy.

Mom's restaurant is downstairs from Uncle Tianhai's office. Most of the time they work overtime together and go home together.

Uncle Tianhai also went to my mother's place to eat at noon.

"Did Dad ever tell you about his intention to marry you into the family?" Tianhai Qimingyue suddenly asked again.

"Yes, I did." Sakakihara nodded.

"Why do you think he said this to you? Don't you think it's strange?"

Raku Sakakihara thought about it, recalling the atmosphere when Uncle Amami spoke to him: "It's very strange. Logically speaking, there is no need for him to give up Jiu Liuli to me like that."

It’s like giving your daughter away for nothing!

Tianhai Qimingyue suddenly interjected: "First of all, let me correct you. Dad didn't give up my sister to you. He just said that he would not interfere with you after knowing that you like your sister and that your sister has a good impression of you.

"Secondly, he just said a little more about your possible future development. To put it bluntly, dad is just telling you in advance so that you can be mentally prepared."

"What are you mentally prepared for?" Sakakihara Raku couldn't understand why.

Tianhai Qimingyue crossed her arms and turned her back to him and said: "Our lineage is the main lineage of the Tianhai family, and according to the order, our lineage should be in charge of the family business. But for grandpa, dad is too rebellious and uncontrollable. . Not only did he go his own way and take the bar exam, he also went abroad to study without authorization, met my mother, deliberately got married without telling the family, and became pregnant with us."

Nizi

Sakakibara thought of this word.

Although it is not good to say that my future father-in-law is not good.

"In my grandfather's eyes, my father was a 'traitor'. He gave up his billions of family fortune, had conflicts with his family, went to Europe to marry a female star, and suddenly announced that he had a child without any news. At that time, my father and his family had already known each other. If there is a conflict, it has already been a big deal, but there is nothing we can do about it, because my grandfather is the only son like my father."

Tianhai Qimingyue narrated calmly and glanced at him sideways:

"You can try to think about what kind of mentality it is."

Put yourself into the old man’s perspective.

Um.

With good food and good feeding, the best thing is education, and what you want is almost at your fingertips.

Ever since he was young, almost countless people have been surrounding his son.

But this son of mine is not only ungrateful. He also went away to a foreign country, gave up his billions of family fortune, and went to marry a female star.

Indeed, Uncle Tianhai was rebellious enough to embarrass the old man.

If the eldest son is disobedient, then of course he has the second eldest son.

However, after giving birth to a total of nine children, the only one who is the eldest is a man!

If it doesn't work, make another one while your body is still healthy.

But it turned out to be a daughter!

She is still a daughter of the same age as my granddaughter!

Thinking about it this way, if Raku Sakakibara were the old man, he might be so angry that he would vomit blood.

Tianhai Qimingyue continued: "In such a situation, grandpa naturally has to find a way to deal with it. Unfortunately, dad only has a younger sister, and even the twins father gave birth to are all female."

Sakakihara Raku was almost speechless.

The Tianhai family is a country of girls, right?

"In this case, all grandpa can do is put pressure on dad."

Sakakibara knew about this situation, Jiu Liuli had told him.

For a long period of time after the divorce, Uncle Tianhai was very busy, very, very busy.

This should be a solution to the pressure placed on him by his family.

"But it is a pity that until now, my father is still firm in his opinion. He will not inherit Tianhai Pharmaceutical. Of course, grandpa does not want to cut off his lineage. There is only one way." Nanami Nanami glanced at Sakakibara Raku.

"Looking for a son-in-law."

As soon as he said this, Sakakibara understood instantly.

emotion

Emotional Uncle Tianhai is a hands-off shopkeeper!

The words he said to himself actually meant that he wanted to turn the pressure from the Tianhai family onto himself.

Even if you marry his daughter, this is what you should do.

But at that time, there was nowhere to go, and the horoscope had not yet been written!

"Qi Mingyue, don't you still have so many aunts? If you want to find a son-in-law, no matter how hard you turn, it won't be my turn."

"Although this is indeed the case, inheriting the family business cannot be smooth sailing. What is the most important thing for a family's son-in-law? It is trust, as well as the sense of belonging and loyalty to the family. Obviously, my uncles and grandfathers still look at it. No, Grandpa likes to train his successors from an early age, at least they are people he has watched grow up."

In this way, as the boyfriend of the old man's youngest granddaughter, I really meet the most basic conditions in the old man's mind.

"understood."

"Are you nervous? Are you thinking about what you are going to say after meeting grandpa?"

"No, you told me that the Tianhai family is not important. In the worst case, we will learn from Uncle Tianhai and elope together."

"Elope? So you're planning to give up now?"

"I'm not saying give up. I have to challenge myself. Maybe grandpa will take a liking to me?"

Tianhai Qimingyue once again knocked away his hand that wanted to hold her waist: "Before you say this, you have to think clearly, you are only a high school student."

"Then I am currently second only to you and Jiu Liuli." Sakakihara said with a smile, and wanted to reach out and hug her.

Tianhai Qimingyue opened his hands again. Rejection for the third time.

Sakakihara was aggrieved. He rejected him three times and made himself look like a fool.

Wait until she rejects herself many times.

"Qi Mingyue, you're not taking the opportunity to take revenge, are you?"

Tianhai Qimingyue gave him a beautiful look.

‘Congratulations, you guessed it right. ’

It really is.

"I said, I hold grudges very much. When you make me happy again, I will reluctantly reward you."

"How to reward?"

"What other reward do you want?"

School, noon.

running.

running.

running.

Rubber soles on the school's hard plastic track. Sakakihara Raku raised the corners of his mouth as he tasted the refreshing feeling of the little snowflakes brushing against his cheeks.

The muscles of the whole body resolve the impact transmitted from the toes, and the gaze goes straight ahead along the red runway.

The whistling in his ears and the breathing that went straight into his brain caused his lungs to continuously absorb oxygen with all their strength. Continuously move your legs, making your body become lighter and lighter.

Every morning and after noon, every time I run Sakakibara, I can feel the many eyes on the teaching building.

There were doubts, curiosity, and joking encouragement and confessions from the girls.

No one cares about these Sakakibara Raku.

Some people may ask or wonder, what is the meaning of running?

This is a difficult question to answer, and everyone’s answer is different.

But as far as Sakakibara is concerned, running can make him feel light, feel the pleasure of moving forward, and feel the pain of being unable to continue after his legs are sore.

Why do I still wear short-sleeved shorts and run on the playground in the winter of late November?

Then, only the word "persistence" can be explained.

There was no one on the playground, but Sakakihara Raku was unaware of any movement other than his own, and his back suddenly tensed up.

"Huhu."

Pretty rhythmic breathing.

Someone is catching up.

Sakakibara glanced to the right, and a short-haired man also wearing short sleeves and shorts appeared next to him.

who is it? ——Despite what Sakakihara thought to himself, his attention was more focused on his legs swaying rhythmically from side to side.

Powerful, even and standardized.

You can hear his clear breathing with every step.

He seems to be a capable person.

"You've been running alone these days, right?"

"Who are you.?"

The cold wind mixed with snowflakes whistled in my ears, and my voice became a little blurry, with some non-stop breathing.

"Qing Yayou, a second-year group."

It seems that he is a senior.

"Are you Sakakibara Raku? A junior in the fourth group of the first year."

The man who called himself Qing Yayu suddenly smiled and called out Raku Sakakibara's name, "I see you have been running in school these days."

"you know me?"

"There are almost no students in the school who don't know you." After a brief pause, the man smiled again, "You are a good runner."

He suddenly sped up, walking faster and faster, moving forward step by step, firmly and powerfully.

Sakakihara Raku was surpassed by him at once. This feeling of suddenly appearing from behind, pursuing closely and then quickly overtaking him made him feel a little provoked. He felt that under the back of the senior in front, the sounds of footsteps, breathing, and wind became clearer. A lot, everything changed in an instant.

He knew what this feeling was.

The feeling of being surpassed.

A long-lost feeling surged from his heart. Sakakibara took a deep breath that chilled his lungs, stepped forward suddenly, and sprinted at full speed.

At the door of the literature department classroom in the club building, Tianhai Qimingyue held a book in her arms and looked at the snowy playground through the lenses of gold-rimmed glasses.

On the red runway, the two figures walked around in circles.

"I'm really tired."

After watching them run fifteen laps and both of them were exhausted, Tianhai Qimingyue withdrew her calm gaze, turned around, her slender black stocking legs under her pleated skirt, and walked downstairs to the corner. Taking a quiet and steady step.
