People were invited to the river, but they didn’t go to the river at all.

Wuyang was crowded with people, and the area near the bridge was even more jam-packed with cars and people. The police stood on top of the police propaganda vehicle and used loudspeakers to repeatedly remind tourists not to crowd.

"There are so many people here, but it's a good thing we didn't go to the Sumida River. I'm afraid there won't be picnic cloths that can only be placed on the road a few kilometers apart this year."

Sakakibara glanced at the other side, and then returned her gaze to the side of Amami Nanamiyue's face beside her. She stared blankly at the crowds of people entering the temple fair, and the silver hairpin in her hair shone in the wind...

"What are you thinking about in July?"

Tianhai Qimingyue's expression was cold as usual, only her eyes silently staring forward brought a touch of warmth.

Even though Raku Sakakihara called her in her ear, she remained silent as if she didn't hear him...

"July...?"

Tianhai Qimingyue looked away and closed her eyes, "It's nothing... I just think there are a lot of people here and it's very lively."

"It's a summer festival after all." Sakakibara continued to say to her, "There are too many people on the other side of the river and we can't get through. How about I take you over to visit the temple fair outside the shrine?"

"It's up to you."

"Then...give me your hand."

When Sakakibara said this, Amami Nanamiyue saw that her hand had separated from his at some point. She looked at his face, hesitated for a moment, and then held it...

The two walked into the street and were immediately surrounded by the lively music of the festival.

Raku Sakakibara saw a stall selling animals, so he took Nanami Nanami's hand and went there with him. When the boss asked "What animal do you want?", Raku Sakakibara said "shark" without thinking.

word, and also added the keyword "extra large".

He paid for it smoothly and took the huge gift from the boss with a smile. Amid the envy and surprise in the eyes of the children lining up behind him, he handed this to Tianhai Qimingyue.

Next, even when she started walking slowly in the temple fair, Tianhai Qimingyue kept her eyes on the shark, dumbly noticing the funny expression caused by the boss's poor skills.

Sakakibara looked at her several times during this period, but he had never seen Qiyue with such a silly expression similar to Ruri's.

"What are you doing staring at me for so long? You're stupid."

"...Do you still remember what I like..." Tianhai Qimingyue muttered softly.

"Don't you just like Little Shark in July?"

"anything else?"

"potato chips."

"besides?"

"Potato chips fried rice, anything light except potato chips fried rice... I like less salt for dinner, and I prefer bread with some salad for breakfast. I like to hold on to your glasses when I have nothing to do... And you said you don't care about my words, but

I will always wipe the pair of glasses I gave you several times a day." Raku Sakakihara blurted out without spending much time thinking about it.

When he said this, he didn't think it was anything at first...until he saw the quiet profile of Tianhai Qimingyue.

There is not a single messy hair beside the ears. It is very clean and smooth. It has been gathered into a bun on the back of the head. The bun is even more carefully prepared, with not only silver ornaments inserted, but also a few lavender velvet flowers.

.

Obviously, she specially dressed herself up before going out today...

...

"Feel sorry."

"Apologise for what?"

"...I haven't spoken to you much this month..."

Tianhai Qimingyue then moved her eyes to his face, "...It seems you are not too stupid."

After talking to this point, the two fell silent again, each looking at their own eyes.

They all know what has been hindering the relationship between the two of them recently... It is not a problem of either party, but a slight gap between both parties.

After walking absentmindedly for a while, Sakakihara Raku didn't even look at Amami Nanami again, but kept thinking about her hand, wearing a yukata, and her small side face as beautiful and delicate as a handicraft...

Is she hinting at herself by always looking at what she bought for her?

When she went out tonight dressed so beautifully, was she actively telling herself that she wanted to talk to herself about her concerns...?

Maybe the answers to these questions are already in my mind, but at this moment... it's extremely difficult to say them to her. I don't know what words I should talk to her about, or how to start the conversation...

"July..." Sakakihara looked at her snow-white neck from the side.

"Well...is there anything you want to say?" Tianhai Qimingyue ate gently.

"...Is it because I haven't talked to you for a month, making you feel insecure...?"

Even though the question was small and tactful, Tianhai Qimingyue still paused after hearing it.

Sakakibara looked up at the night sky of the festival, "Or...we haven't really reconciled since we came back from England, so July started to worry about gains and losses?"

He withdrew his gaze, looked at the girl, and said with a smile:

"It is precisely for this reason that in Qiyue, you asked me just now whether I still remember your preferences, and you were very happy because I gave you one just now."

"..." Tianhai Qimingyue opened her mouth slightly, but did not speak at first. After two seconds of hesitation, she frowned, "You... better not take yourself too seriously..."

"Then I'll go jump into the sea."

"...Farewell." Tianhai Qimingyue's voice became faster in an instant, and her steps moved slightly toward him.

Sakakibara retracted his world-weary expression, turned around, and smiled at the girl again, "Look, after all this, you are still a little bit tough in July... Is it because you haven't gotten rid of your anger in July last time?"

"...So. Even now I know that you bastard said those words to me on purpose..."

"But you really believed it at that time, and you had uncomfortable emotions about it, and you still linger to this day...right?" Sakakihara's expression and words softened, and she continued to speak.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "I only know that I wanted to throw away all the things you gave me, but I didn't have the heart to do it. And I thought that the person I wanted to believe would actually do it to me.

Say those words..."

...Even though Amami Nanamigetsu didn't finish what she said, Sakakibara Raku could still hear the emotions in her words.

There is actually a problem in July that is more serious than Liuli.

That's her sense of security...

Her life is all based on the phantom of the past.

This makes her emotionally helpless, basically only believing in herself and the person who saved her in the past...

After experiencing many things, she chose to believe in herself, believing that he would give her a reliable emotion and give her a life that she had never had before...a life of mutual support and trust...

...It is useless to pursue the mistakes of the past now. Sakakihara Raku only understood Qiyue's deep love for him by recalling these things.

Those words that deliberately irritated her really hurt her.

Sakakihara looked at her and wanted to apologize to her again, but she saw it and stopped her.

"I know your thoughts, and now I also understand your unwillingness and motivation to let go of the snow. Maybe people are selfish. Obviously I was saved by you in the past, but now... the 'I' in the past has been replaced by

I'm sorry for Yuki, but I can't accept you putting that kind of thing on others again."

"..."

The seven bright moons in the sky were quiet for a while.

"Now I don't blame you at all. If I want to blame it, just blame the Tianhai family... The people in this family never know what home is, and they always only have work and money in their minds. I envy Ling very much. I have heard this often.

The story of her growing up with you... Even if you have no money, even if you can only live in a leaky house, you can cuddle up with each other for warmth and continue to move towards tomorrow with your energy.

"My aunt also told me about you when you were young. She said that when you were in elementary school, whenever you went to find Ling... Ling would call you 'brother', smile and rush to you happily, and hug you...

.As for my sister and I...even the graduation ceremony was just the two of us in college life, there wasn't much to talk about...

"If I had a brother like that... maybe I wouldn't be like this... and like Ling, I could be happy every day and face the new day with a smile every day."

July, who likes to laugh every day like a bell...

Sakakibara imagined it for a moment, but he couldn't imagine it... That kind of situation is not actually July.

"...And because of this, you kept teasing me when we first met...?"

Tianhai Qimingyue held it in his hand and squinted his eyes: "Didn't you realize that I also prefer to play the kind of person in my heart? Why do you think it's like this now?"

The first July...

If you think about it carefully, it seems that the only characteristic left is "no expression".

Emotional matters were too serious and heavy, and she no longer had the mood to joke with herself as before.

"I particularly want to ask you a question now."

"Hmm? What do you want to ask?"

"You bastard, why are you so hard to chase...?"

Nanami Nanami's serious expression immediately made Sakakibara laugh, "I can't help it, who told me to be so good?"

Tianhai Qimingyue frowned and twisted his waist, "I can't stand the way you bastard behaves in front of me."

"Hey...are you doing this again? Don't say it in Qiyue! I can't stand your usual arrogance and arrogance. You are so stubborn. I know you are so stubborn every day. Sooner or later, you will lose to your stubbornness.
