Chapter 228 The scent of Suguha
"Hey, this kind of life is really good..."
Ayano Yui was lying on the sofa, holding a drink made by Sawayama Haruno for her, looking in a good mood.
Not wanting to be outdone, Maki Miyazawa was lying on the side, placing a drink and a box of French fries on the sofa - she planned to eat while lying down.
After hearing what Ayano Yui said, she couldn't help but turned around and asked curiously: "Come to think of it, didn't Xiao Wei say before that she wanted to participate in some competition or something?"
"Well, this is the task assigned to me by my instructor."
Ayano Yui took another sip of her drink, narrowed her eyes and smiled: "Don't worry about that, I have already completed most of it in the past few days, and I will continue to make time for it later."
"It's better to finish it early, so as not to delay the following things."
Sawayama Haruno reminded from the side.
He was the only one among the group who was sitting properly. As for why Ezaki Suguha was not included, it was because she had just gone to get new sauce, so people who were standing naturally could not be counted.
Reminding Ayano Yui also has his own deep meaning. After all, he had promised to take Ayano Yui out to play. By the way, has this guy got a passport? He should have, right?
"Doesn't Xiao Wei have to go to school?"
When Ezaki Suguha came back with the new sauce, he glanced at the other party with some confusion.
"No need, I was recommended."
".Which school?"
"Tokyo University of the Arts."
Ayano Yui waved her hand and said indifferently: "Let's not talk about this. I don't really like that school."
"."
Ezaki Suguha pursed her lips, looking a little lost.
It's true that comparing yourself to others can make you angry. She was still worrying about which university she could get into in the future, but she didn't expect that Ayano Yui would be admitted so easily.
"University"
Maki Miyazawa, who was lying on the sofa, suddenly turned over, hung her head outside the sofa, and looked at Sawayama Haruno opposite her.
“Is it difficult to repeat the year and take the college entrance exam?”
She couldn't help but ask.
"Do you have any idea about this?" Zeshan Haruno was a little surprised, but he quickly explained, "It depends on what kind of school you want to apply to. If it's a national university, it will be difficult to get in."
"That's it"
Miyazawa Maki was a little disappointed.
But it's also true that she had long since returned all the knowledge she had learned to her teachers, so it would be difficult for her to get into a national university, not to mention that her previous academic performance was very poor.
In fact, many private universities are difficult to get into, but after all, they are different from national universities. As long as you meet other conditions, you may still be able to enroll.
Just thinking about the cost of attending that kind of university made Maki Miyazawa feel a little discouraged.
It is difficult for ordinary families to afford such high tuition fees. Even if they can afford it, they don’t know when they can cash in, and this does not include things like professional employment.
"Then you should become a great writer soon."
Miyazawa Maki said absentmindedly: "When you become a great writer, you can find a way to send me to university, right?"
"If you want to read it then, that's fine."
Sawayama Haruno smiled helplessly.
He has gradually gotten used to Miyazawa Maki's unconventional thinking, but what the other party said is not wrong. If he becomes a literary giant of that level, let alone a university degree, it will not be a problem for him to improve further.
As far as Haruno Sawayama knows, the current University of Tokyo probably also has talent training programs in this area.
Although Tokyo University has won many Nobel Prizes, one thing like this is never too little. After his book is published, the school leaders will probably come to talk to him.
Anyway, it’s only the last few months of the second half of the year.
They chatted for a while and then started a new round of Hanafuda game.
But perhaps because they had just eaten, everyone was not in a very high spirits. After playing two rounds and Ayano Yui and Esaki Suguha accepting their punishment, tonight's Hanafuda game seemed to be almost over.
Looking at the clock hanging on the wall, Jiang Qizhiye hesitated for a while before saying tactfully: "I'm almost going back."
"It's almost ten o'clock."
Zeshan Haruno looked up at the clock and subconsciously said, "Is the butler waiting for you near the station? Do you want me to take you to the station?"
Suguha Esaki did not answer immediately, but glanced at Maki Miyazawa.
The other person was casually touching the Hanafuda cards and chatting with Ayano Yui beside him.
After she felt the gaze coming over, she slowly said, "Be careful on the road, Suguha. I'll continue playing cards with Xiao Wei at home."
As for Sawayama Haruno's gaze, she selectively ignored it.
However, Sawayama Haruno, who knew this guy's temper well, naturally understood that she was too lazy to care, so she quietly got up and took Ezaki Suguha out the door.
He finally breathed a sigh of relief after getting into the elevator.
"Feel sorry."
"It's ok."
Ezaki Suguha looked down at her shoes, smiled faintly and said, "I am very happy now."
"Yeah."
Sawayama Haruno was silent for a moment, then slowly moved closer.
When the elevator was about to reach the first floor, he gently held the other person's hand.
Suguha Ezaki did not resist at all, but let him lead her obediently. The elevator arrived quickly, and there was no one in the reception hall. It was estimated that Kazuki Takashima had gone to rest somewhere.
Sawayama Haruno took Ezaki Suguha outside. Although there was no one on the street at ten o'clock, it was not too late, and it was a perfect time for a night walk.
"Haruno."
As they walked, Ezaki Suguha couldn't help but ask out of curiosity, "You and Maki's sister?"
"what"
Sawayama Haruno pursed his lips and whispered, "We dated before."
".Don't you think it's a little strange?" Ezaki Suguha stared at him and said softly, "I asked Maki this afternoon, and she said she didn't want to dwell on this kind of thing, but I want to hear your thoughts."
"My thoughts?"
Sawayama Haruno looked away and was silent for a moment before explaining, "I will take responsibility, just like you."
"I understand."
Suoha Esaki smiled.
It turned out to be just as she expected, because Haruno was just that kind of person.
If that was the case, she had no other problems.
Although it is still unclear how Haruno broke up with the other party and how he got together with the other party's sister, since Haruno wants to be responsible for everyone, what he did before was not wrong.
Anyway, she had never thought about competing with Miyazawa Maki from the beginning, and maintaining the current situation was the best option.
"Speaking of which, Haruno had something urgent to do this afternoon, right? What happened?"
"Well, a thief broke into Shiori's house." Sawayama Haruno was a little embarrassed and coughed lightly, "The tablet and computer were stolen. Because my manuscripts were inside, I was worried that something might happen, so I went over there."
"Did you find it?"
"No, I called the police."
Zeshan Haruno gave a bitter smile and said helplessly: "But the police said the hope of finding it back is very slim."
"This"
Suguha Ezaki opened her mouth.
Just by listening to Sawayama Haruno's description, she could imagine her master being at a loss and somewhat panicked.
Then I thought about the "things" I had now and the guilt I felt towards her.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Qizhiye whispered: "I'll ask others to help me look for it. Generally speaking, people who want to sell stolen goods will choose places like second-hand markets."
"Do you have any connections in this area?"
"No, but there should be someone in my family who cooperates with that kind of place." Jiang Qizhiye smiled at him and comforted him, "I will ask my brother for mercy, and he should agree to me."
"That's good"
Sawayama Haruno breathed a sigh of relief.
One more person means more strength. At this point, what else is there to complain about?
But then again, why hasn't Naoto Ezaki contacted me yet?
"In fact, besides this matter, there is another thing I would like to ask for your help."
Sawayama Haruno looked at the station sign in the distance and said without hesitation: "Can I let Shiori stay at your house for a few days?"
"Of course no problem. I should actually take the initiative to find her."
Jiang Qizhiye smiled gently and said, "I told her before that I should move to another place as soon as possible. I'll take this opportunity to persuade her again."
"please."
Sawayama Haruno's pace gradually slowed down.
Realizing that they were about to reach the station, Ezaki Suguha also slowed down his pace.
However, no matter how much they "slowed down", the distance to the station would not become longer at all. Moreover, the black car parked next to the station drove forward a short distance, as if giving a hint. Therefore, they finally chose to stand about six meters away from the next street light.
The six-meter distance was enough for the people in the black car to see them, but they couldn't clearly see what they were doing. At this distance, which was just enough for the light to shine on the soles of their feet, two pitifully small shadows were slowly dragged out.
When they are close to each other, they stick together tightly, as if they have merged into one.
This made Ezaki Suguha, who had been looking down at the ground, unable to help but become dazed for a moment.
"Haruno."
Once again, the tall girl whispered her boyfriend's name.
Sawayama Haruno turned around, held the other person's hand tightly, and with a little force, he easily pulled Ezaki Suguha into his arms.
The height difference between the two is not that big, so when hugging, Sawayama Haruno cannot rest his chin on the other's head like he did with Miyazawa Maki before.
But perhaps it's not bad to look almost the same. At least when he lowered his head, he could clearly see the delicate collarbone of Suguha Ezaki hidden under the collar of her shirt, as well as the faint fragrance emanating from her body.
Very nice smell.
Sawayama Haruno couldn't help but lower his head and rubbed the other's neck.
This action made Ezaki Suguha feel a little itchy, her face slightly red but she was reluctant to move away.
"Wait for me a moment, Suguha."
"Well, I understand."
Ezaki Suguha hugged Sawayama Haruno tightly with his backhand and whispered, "I will always wait for you."
