Chapter 162 Do you want to come with me?
On a pedestrian overpass in Shibuya district.
The girl in sportswear with her ponytail tied up high was staring in a daze at the "lights" rushing towards her not far away.
Today is Sunday, and according to her family's schedule for her, now can be considered as her private rest time.
Of course, she didn't know what to do when she was resting alone, so she finally chose to go out for a night run.
Then, I stopped on the overpass and couldn't help but stare blankly.
“Will it really be comfortable to do something like that?”
She suddenly murmured to herself.
The conversation I had with Maki Miyazawa in the morning couldn't help but come to my mind.
Maki told everything about her and Haruno without reservation, even though Suguha Ezaki, who was still a virgin, found it difficult to understand.
But she could feel her friend's excitement and the sweetness that was about to overflow through the screen, which made her unable to help but be dazed for a moment.
Although the relationship between Haruno and Maki seems to have started a little too late, it's still a happy ending overall.
At first, she thought that the two had done it many times, after all, they could go out traveling together during the Golden Week. She didn't expect that they would have to wait until they were completely sure of each other's feelings and future before having sex.
"really weird."
Very strange.
She wasn't the traditional woman who believed that "you have to wait until you get married to have sex," but seeing how much Haruno and Maki were willing to develop feelings for this matter and wait for so long, she couldn't help but become distracted.
It is said that there is no harm without comparison. Thinking of the two-hour love between her parents, Ezaki Suguha increasingly felt that the way Haruno and Maki get along seems to be correct.
But she seemed to have lost the opportunity to pursue the "right" thing.
"Ugh"
The tall girl sighed for the first time.
There must be a special reason why she was so depressed. It would be better to say that the pressure in her heart was like a cup of water that was about to overflow, and what her mother said to her yesterday undoubtedly added an extra spoonful of water to the cup.
She originally wanted to relieve some of her stress by traveling to Kyoto, but what her uncles said this afternoon made her feel uneasy again.
A blind date.
I haven't even graduated from high school yet, thought Suguha Ezaki.
However, it seems normal for a large family business like hers. With no hope of further studies, she can only rely on the help of her family to attend other schools.
In return for her family's kindness, she must go on blind dates with men and have them marry into the Ezaki family in order to increase the family's weight in business and politics.
Just like the problem her father who fled to Italy once faced.
In addition, Suguha Ezaki knew that his uncles had another purpose, which was to force Naoto Ezaki to step down by supporting him.
Although she is not very clear about the internal struggles in the family at present, it is not difficult to see that the uncles are very afraid of their brother.
The reason is very simple. Naoto Esaki is a radical within the family.
It is said that her uncle's death from overwork was closely related to her uncles. If it were not for this reason, her grandfather would not have brought Naoto home on behalf of her father.
Naoto Esaki, who is already in his twenties and has gradually shown his potential, has recently been vigorously integrating the family businesses. It is said that he is also fully responsible for the recent negotiations with the Kansai Chamber of Commerce on the development of new industries.
The uncles must be scared, fearing that Naoto will settle accounts with them one by one after he takes power. After all, their grandfather will not take action because of their blood relationship, but Naoto will not care so much.
It is precisely because the uncles are afraid that they are eager to go out on blind dates and try to make the internal situation of the Ezaki family more chaotic.
“Can’t life be simpler?”
Looking at the cars speeding past below, Ezaki Suguha sighed again.
She had no attachment to the position of head of the family. Although her family was indispensable to her life, which most people envied, she felt that even without these things, she could still live as a normal person.
The greater the responsibility, the greater the ability required. All these things made Ezaki Suguha feel a little breathless.
She knew very well that even if she didn't want to compete with her brother for the position, she would not have the final say after the blind date, and the uncles would take advantage of the situation.
Then, in the end, did it turn out to be what the mother wanted to see?
I don’t know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, but Ezaki Suguha feels very confused now.
Looking at the road below where cars were constantly passing by, she somehow came up with a strange idea.
It doesn't really matter, and no one will worry about it.
Moreover, it can also free you from the current situation where you are under great pressure and can't breathe.
Um.
Although people do not want to die occasionally, the moment they decide to die is definitely very sloppy.
At least that's what Suguha Ezaki thought.
Although he doesn't usually show any negative attitude, maybe people like him are called "dangerous people", right?
Looking at the bridge that was so close at hand, Ezaki Suoha was lost in thought.
It was not until her phone vibrated for the third time that she realized someone seemed to be looking for her.
She subconsciously took out the mobile phone from her pocket, opened it and saw that it was the name that had made her absent-minded before.
——Sawayama Haruno.
Or maybe it would be more appropriate to call him by his pen name? I remember it was Kiriyama Fuyumi?
Although this guy's name is a bit weird, if you think about it carefully, you will find that it sounds quite nice.
While thinking this, Ezaki Suguha opened her phone without hesitation to check what the other party said. When she saw that the other party was just asking where she was, although she was a little confused, she still sent her location directly.
It's really strange. When we met last week it was Sunday night, and when we met this week it was also Sunday night.
She wasn't wearing it when we met last week, and she still wasn't wearing it when we met this week.
Ezaki Suguha subconsciously looked down at her sportswear, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise a little. But unfortunately, she wasn't wearing a skirt today, so Haruno probably wouldn't have a chance to notice it, right?
But what if the other party asks?
Sure enough, it’s better to tell the truth. She doesn’t like lying.
What's more, she had the urge to kneel on the ground and try to wag her tail to please him.
Especially after breaking their wrists that day, and after hearing this morning about Haruno's performance in bed, her heart became more and more restless.
Suguha Ezaki had no idea that his straightforward personality seemed to have become a little strange due to the influence of Haruno Sawayama.
She just stood quietly on the overpass, looking at the hustle and bustle of traffic passing by below, standing there in a daze without thinking about anything, until that person arrived.
The other party had no intention of hiding his steps. After stepping onto the overpass, he walked straight towards Ezaki Suguha.
Even without looking back, Ezaki Suguha could roughly judge that the distance between herself and the other party was shrinking, until it was maintained at a relatively delicate distance.
Isn't it time to come over? Ezaki Suguha suddenly felt a little regretful.
Even she herself couldn't explain why she had such an idea.
I hope Sawayama Haruno can get closer, preferably by pinching my neck and pressing me against the edge of the overpass railing.
"call"
Ezaki Suguha took a deep breath and drove away the messy thoughts in her mind, then she slowly turned around.
The person standing in front of her was indeed Sawayama Haruno.
"Eat?"
The other party suddenly raised the small bag in his hand. Ezaki Suguha took a look and stood there in a daze.
It's oden.
"I wondered if I'd run into you somewhere this weekend, so I asked out of curiosity. I didn't expect we were so close." Sawayama Haruno shrugged and said casually, "I saw a small stand on the way here. The oden smelled delicious, so I bought two servings."
".good."
Suguha Ezaki took the oden cautiously.
Although she was a lady from a prominent family, she had of course eaten things like oden, and a lot of it.
But if it is oden bought from a roadside stall, it may be the first time you try it in your life.
"Be careful, the soup might spill, it might still be hot."
Seeing that Ezaki Suguha took it, Sawayama Haruno smiled knowingly.
After reminding the other party, he also took out his own portion, then placed it directly on the railing of the overpass and started eating it.
Suguha Ezaki standing by also followed suit.
Maybe eating while standing on a roadside overpass is also a novel experience for the young lady?
Sawayama Haruno thought it was a good thing that the other party did not refuse, otherwise it would have been too embarrassing.
Due to the requirements of the system task, I had to come over and contact Suguha Ezaki. I had to observe whether the other party was in trouble, but I didn't want to appear too stiff or awkward, so I had to buy two servings of oden on the way here.
Fortunately, the atmosphere is still harmonious now.
"Why is Suguha standing here?"
"I just finished a night run and took a break on the bridge."
It seemed that Ezaki Suguha was not used to the way of eating while standing and talking. After almost choking on her food, she asked with a grim face, "Where's Haruno? You didn't bring Maki out tonight."
"That guy."
Thinking of Miyazawa Maki, Sawayama Haruno's mouth twitched.
That guy is probably still sleeping soundly at home. After all, he did it so many times last night and played all day today. If he doesn’t sleep until midnight, it’s unlikely that he will wake up.
Of course, I can't tell Ezaki Suguha about the fact that I was almost exhausted and now I'm sleeping soundly at home. I'd better save some face for Maki in front of her friends.
So Zeshan Haruno thought about it and said casually: "She is a little tired from shopping today, so she is still sleeping at home."
"is it?"
Suguha Esaki seemed a little hesitant.
Um.
She felt that judging by the other person's personality, it should be related to what happened last night?
After all, he was so anxious to find me early in the morning to ask for a solution, and even went so far as to ask me to get some medicine that could quickly restore his energy.
It is not difficult to see that Maki Miyazawa is really worried about this kind of thing.
If that's the case, Haruno is indeed very strong.
I don't know what he was thinking about, but Ezaki Suguha's eyes suddenly became a little complicated. When he looked at Sawayama Haruno beside him, more and more strange thoughts came to his mind.
She didn't want to think about family and academic matters anymore, and the best way to stop thinking about them should be to do exactly the same thing as what happened last time they arm wrestled, right?
so to speak
"what happened?"
Noticing the sudden gaze from the side, Sawayama Haruno subconsciously turned around to look at the other person, and happened to meet Ezaki Suguha's unreserved gaze.
There was an inexplicable glow flowing in the other person's bright eyes.
It was as if she was going to do something to herself.
"Haruno, do you want to come with me?"
The truck speeding under the overpass honked its horn shrilly, and the girl's unspoken words were completely shredded by the wind.
