Chapter 883 Why call her Auntie? Call her Sister
The boy's palm was warm and dry, and he gently pulled her up. However, as her right foot touched the ground, a piercing pain hit her, and she fell forward uncontrollably.
"Be careful."
Hanyu Kusunoki was quick-witted and caught her steadily.
Qingzi threw herself into his arms, and a refreshing mint scent mixed with the smell of sunshine hit her face, making the girl a little dazed for a moment and forgetting to breathe.
"It looks like you're seriously injured." Hanyu Kusunoki lowered his head to check her ankle and said gently, "I'll carry you to the hospital."
"No need!" Qingzi quickly shook her head, "My home is really just up ahead, I just need to rest for a while..."
"Is that so..." Hanyu Kusunoki seemed to be lost in thought, and suddenly squatted down on the spot, "Then I'll take you home."
"Eh?! Wait—"
In the end, with Hanyu Kusunoki's insistence, Aoko was carried on his back.
"So light." Hanyu Kusunoki weighed the girl on his back. "Don't you usually eat well?"
"No, no!" Qingzi lay on his back and argued softly, her voice as soft as a mosquito's, "I eat a lot at every meal..."
The boy's back was warm and reliable, and Qingzi relaxed unconsciously. The evening breeze blew by, carrying the boy's faint fragrance, making her heart beat inexplicably faster.
Even Kaito had never experienced such close contact...
"Um..." She tried to find a topic to ease the awkwardness, "Why are you here?"
"When a friend comes, we eat." Hanyu Kusunoki chuckled. "I saw a cute kitten fighting with a telephone pole, so I watched it for a while longer."
"I'm not a cat!" Qingzi protested angrily, then muttered softly, "And I'm not very cute..."
"Hmm?" Hanyu Kusunoki teased her deliberately, "Are you questioning my taste?"
"No, no!"
Qingzi shook her head in panic, and her hair brushed against the boy's neck, making it itchy.
The two chatted casually and soon arrived downstairs at Nakamori's house.
Hanyu Nan gently placed her on the bench at the door: "Do you need me to take you upstairs?"
"no need!"
Qingzi shook her head like a rattle, "Mom is home!"
She didn't dare let her mother see her being carried back by a boy. The scene was scary to think about.
"Jingle Bell--"
Just as she finished speaking, her cell phone rang suddenly.
Qingzi hurriedly took it out of her schoolbag and saw that the caller ID was "Mom". She was relieved.
"Hello, mom?"
"Aoko, I'm sorry." Nakamori Aoi's voice sounded apologetic from the other end of the line. "I have a case to deal with, so I'm going back to the court. You can take care of dinner yourself. There's a bento in the fridge."
"Eh?" Qingzi's face fell instantly, "But mom said she would cook fish this morning..."
"Sorry, babe. I'll make it up to you next time."
Aiko Nakamori hung up the phone in a hurry.
Qingzi pouted in grievance, and her stomach growled at the right moment.
She looked down at her swollen ankle, then thought about her empty home, and suddenly felt extremely desolate.
My feet are injured and I have lost all my fish...
"Looks like our Nakamori-san is going to be hungry tonight?"
Hanyu Kusunoki raised an eyebrow.
"No, no way!" Qingzi forced herself to be tough, trying to maintain her last bit of stubbornness, "I can cook!"
"Oh?" Hanyu Kusunoki said with a half-smile, "Then how will Nakamori-san, with his injured ankle, cook while standing?"
The girl was speechless, her face wrinkled.
"How about this." Hanyu Kusunoki pulled a tube of ointment from his pocket like a magician. "I'm going to have dinner at Hei Yu's house next door. Sister Qianying's fish is amazing. How about we go together? I can apply the ointment on you while I'm at it."
Aoko blinked, and suddenly remembered that the last time she saw Hanyu Kusunoki, she was indeed from the Kaito family, and she also said that she was good friends with Aunt Chikage...
"This...is not good..." She hesitated.
"Sister Qianying is very kind." Hanyu Kusunoki seemed to see through her concerns and lowered his voice, "And... I'll tell you in secret that I can also cook a variety of fish dishes~ sweet and sour fish, boiled fish, pickled fish..."
As the names of the dishes were announced one by one, the girl's eyes became brighter and brighter, her saliva began to be secreted unconsciously, and various fish ingredients kept flashing before her eyes.
She likes eating fish the most!
"Well, excuse me for a moment..."
The girl finally couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food.
Hanyu Kusunoki smiled and carried her on his back again: "Hold on tight."
He is very good at prescribing the right medicine for the right disease.
Aoko put her arms around his neck, feeling the boy's steady steps. The setting sun stretched their shadows long, like a warm painting. Suddenly, she felt a strange sense of harmony.
What she didn't know was that at this moment the curtains on the second floor of the Nakamori house were swaying slightly, and Nakamori Aiko was standing by the window holding her cell phone, looking at their departing backs thoughtfully.
..........
In front of the Hei Yu residence, as soon as Hanyu Kusunoki rang the doorbell, the door opened with a swish.
"host--"
Kuroba Chikage, who was wearing a red high-slit cheongsam, stopped talking at the tip of her tongue and stared at Aoko on Hanyu Kusunoki's back with her beautiful eyes wide open.
The carefully applied makeup almost broke.
What had happened? Why did she see her son's childhood sweetheart on her master's back?
"Sister Qianying." Hanyu Kusunoki took over the conversation naturally, "I met Qingzi on the road and she had an injured foot. I brought her here to get some medicine and have a meal."
Although Hei Yu Qianying was full of doubts, she quickly adjusted her expression and showed a gentle smile: "Hey, how did Aoko-chan get hurt? Come in quickly!"
As she spoke, she moved aside to make way.
At the moment of turning sideways, he took advantage of the angle to secretly pout at Hanyu Kusunoki, silently protesting: This big devil actually brought Kaito's childhood sweetheart here!
Hanyu Kusunoki gave her an innocent wink and walked straight into the living room with Aoko on her back.
Hei Yu Qianying followed behind and felt inexplicably sour in her heart when she saw the young man carefully placing Qingzi on the sofa.
The master was not so gentle when he first met her.
Aoko was placed on the sofa and looked at the two of them curiously: "Aunt Chikage and Hanyu-san have a really good relationship."
"Of course, Hanyu-san is mine..."
"Good friends." Hanyu Nan took over the conversation and squeezed Qianying's shoulder, "Right, Sister Qianying?"
The tips of Heiyu Qianying's ears turned slightly red, and she hummed softly.
Qingzi always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't put her finger on it, so she could only say embarrassedly: "Aunt Qianying...sorry to bother you..."
"What do you mean, Auntie?"
Kuroba Chikage pinched Qingzi's face affectionately and said, "Call me sister~"
She put on exquisite makeup today, and the cheongsam outlined her perfect body curves. She looked as young as her sister, with no signs of aging at all.
Besides, maybe I really have to call her sister in the future?
