ten days ago...

A beeping sound.

The call was dialed.

On the rooftop of the campus, Tian Haizi leaned on the guardrail under the setting sun with one hand, looking at the students who were still going home in twos and threes on the playground.

[Hi, July.]

[…]

[Why don't you speak?]

[At this point in time...] The other end of the phone sighed obviously, [Auntie, why are you calling again? If you still want to talk to me about someone, I will choose to block you in the next second.]

Tianhaizi laughed, turned over, leaned against the rooftop guardrail, and looked at the sky above him that was dyed red by the setting sun.

[Don't worry, don't worry, July. I wonder if you have noticed that you have become more and more impatient in both actions and words recently?]

[…]

[Not going well at work?]

[There is no point in discussing these things with my aunt.]

[Auntie is caring about you. I know you are living a good life on your own now. You are doing the things you like, and you have your own career to be busy with after school. Reading fills your interests and hobbies, and your career satisfies your desire to move forward.

Entrepreneurship... Well, if it bothers you, there is no doubt that with the intelligence and intelligence of our family in July, we will be able to make our business bigger and stronger like the old man.]

[...What exactly does aunt want to say?]

Tian Haizi lowered his head, looked at his toes with a smile, and crossed his feet on the ground, [Have you ever thought about it in Qiyue, why are you so focused now?]

[…]

Be quiet for a moment.

[Myself.]

[Really?]

[No need to question this, aunt.]

Xiaoqi, this girl, has a harder mouth than her heart.

[Xiao Qi, do you still remember what you looked like when you were a child?]

[…]

[You have always been taciturn. When I see you, you always look like you are holding a book and reading it seriously. I heard from my elder brother that you have been very obedient since you were a child. You have never been like me in the past without going to bed for a day.

There was no stopping. At that time, I was thinking, what is the reason that allows a little girl who should be lively to have such self-control? And what caused her to travel more than ten trains by herself a month ago and rent a taxi?

Car, all the way from Tokyo to Shikoku?]

[...Auntie, there is no need to say that these are useless. If there is nothing important, I will hang up.]

Tianhaizi was not in a hurry and looked at the time, "Xiaoqi, can you get off work?"

[Getting ready to leave.]

[Then come to school. I'll wait for you. If you follow me this time, I will promise not to make these useless calls to you again. Otherwise... you know I don't lack phone numbers.]

[...What is the purpose of my aunt doing this? Is it a spy sent by someone?]

[Don’t say that! I just discovered some things, and you must know them.]

Tianhaizi didn't wait for Tianhai Qimingyue to agree and hung up the phone on his own initiative.

After waiting on the rooftop for about twenty minutes, Tianhai Qimingyue opened the door to the rooftop and came to her.

At this time, the sky was already dark.

"Let's go." Tian Haizi saw her arrival and walked directly towards the rooftop entrance.

"Where to go?"

"Take you to see something."

Tianhai Qimingyue held her forehead and said, "Auntie, I don't have much time to accompany you to make trouble. Since the past few days, you have been calling me... It's completely unnecessary. I'm not doing well by myself now.

?”

"Then what if I say that Xiaole and Liuli have even bought their tickets to the UK?"

"..." Tianhai Qimingyue's shaking head paused for a second.

Tian Haizi looked at her face, and her expression no longer had the usual joking expression, but a very helpless look, "Look, I said, you still care about Qiyue. At that moment, you

Are you thinking that Xiao Le will elope with Liuli looking happy?"

"...I just didn't expect it to happen so soon."

"Xiaoqi, you girl likes to be tough-talking."

Tianhai Qimingyue: "What I said is the truth. According to the agreement between the two people, my sister's competition will not be until next year at the latest. It is best to go to the UK at that time."

"Have you ever thought about elopement?"

"Elope? Even if it's an elopement, you won't do anything to me at all."

Tian Haizi shook his head, "In July, sometimes it's better to be honest."

Tianhai Qimingyue frowned, "Auntie, there are some words that I don't want to repeat too many times. The fact is that those words said by a certain guy are destined to part ways in the future."

"What did Xiaole say? Qiyue, why do you think Xiaole said those things to you?"

"...Does this require an answer?"

"Try to think about it."

"Absolutely not--"

"Try to think about it first, Qi Qi." Tian Haizi emphasized his tone.

"..."

After Tianhai Qimingyue glanced at her aunt's extremely serious expression, she remained silent for a moment and replied with her own thoughts: "Because of the snow."

"Is it really because of the snow?"

"In addition, he thought that I could not agree with his point of view, and he became angry because of it."

"That's all...?"

"..."

Tianhaizi: "Look, don't you have an answer in Qiyue? I understand that you are so smart, and you must have doubted more than once why the people you have trusted countless times will continue to deny you again and again like now.

Because you can't give an answer, you can only give an explanation of 'he has changed', right?"

"..." Tianhai Qimingyue still didn't answer.

"Look, you haven't been able to fully explain this in Qiyue, right? So, follow me now and I'll take you to see something."

After Tianhaizi finished speaking, he walked into the corridor first.

Tianhai Qimingyue took advantage of the remaining microscopic light of the setting sun and glanced at her aunt's back before following her.

...

Walk down the teaching building and walk out of the atrium corridor full of sunset.

Tianhai Qimingyue followed Tianhaizi all the way to the playground.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After Tianhaizi took the initiative to stop, Tianhai Qimingyue saw what her aunt wanted to see for her.

——In preparation for tomorrow's final, Raku Sakakihara is patiently teaching Yuki Amami the key points of shooting and offside.

Tianhai Qimingyue frowned again, "Why are you showing me these?"

Tian Haizi looked at the two people on the basketball court, "Just from this picture, Xiaoqi, what do you think?"

"...You want me to comment on him?"

"Talk about it."

"..." Tianhai Qimingyue was a little reluctant, "Based on the scene in front of me, I can only describe it as 'warmth'."

Before they finished speaking, the two people on the basketball court were practicing grabbing the basket again.

"Well..." Tian Haizi then asked, "What do you think about Xiao Qi, a person who can now warmly teach Zhixue basketball, and who used to practice with her every day to this point, and the person who said those words to you?

, seems to be the same?”

"...There is indeed some separation. But there is no conflict."

"Then keep reading."

"..."

Tianhai Qimingyue patiently watched the two people's basketball practice until the end.

After it was over, the two sat under the basketball hoop, and Sakakihara brought her a bottle of water from the automatic collection machine.
