[Net King + Black Basket] Seijuro, your mother calls you to go home for dinner!

Xun Li was woken up by coughing.

People are most vulnerable in the early hours of the morning, and she even lost the strength to reach out and turn on the desk lamp.In a panic, she knocked over the mug with her hand, and the water spilled all over the floor. The sound of blunt objects hitting the ground made her tremble, and all the sleepy people were driven away.

"FUCK...ahem..."

She cursed a few times in her heart, covering her mouth and trying to keep her coughing down.Her bedroom was directly below Masashi's bedroom, separated only by a ceiling.

She forced herself not to make a sound, but the careful silence lasted less than three seconds.

Her whole body rose and fell with the sound of coughing, and her fingers trembled violently. While coughing, Xun Li cursed in her heart, and she coughed out a sense of rhythm.

Xunli realized in vain that she might not be suffering from a severe cold. Would a simple cold cause symptoms such as chest tightness and shortness of breath?

The first possibility that flashed into her mind was bronchitis, but she always paid attention to keeping warm and not eating indiscriminately, let alone getting an infection.

Her eyes were fixed on the ceiling, as if she was about to burn a scorched hole out of it with her scorching gaze.Xun Li gasped softly as she rubbed her dry coughing throat, just now she had the illusion that her liver was upside down and dislocated, as if she would vomit blood the next moment.

Such a familiar experience brought her back to her elementary school days.At that time, the family conditions were not rich enough, and she suffered from asthma, and had to spend money to buy sprays every once in a while.

During that time, Xunli was afraid of winter, after all, the incidence of asthma was extremely high in cold seasons.Whether you go out or stay at home, wrap yourself tightly.It was later discovered that she had allergic asthma, as long as she was not exposed to allergens, there would be no major problems.

Coupled with joining the basketball club in junior high school, her physical fitness has been greatly improved, and she didn't pay much attention to this seemingly trivial problem after that.

Xun Li blinked in confusion, she hasn't touched buckwheat recently, has she?

"Cough cough..."

I can't sleep now.She looked at the screen of the mobile phone showing 4am in grief and anger, took a deep breath, turned it off, groped out of bed in the dark, and stabilized her center of gravity with her feet on the ground.

On Seijuro's birthday night, she couldn't eat anything except cake, for fear that it would spit out before swallowing it.

The coughing sound had completely covered up Mr. Stomach's growls, and she didn't realize that her stomach was empty until she calmed down, but the heating was turned up too high, which made her feel her stomach was ignited with excitement.

Xun Li pushed open the window, and the fresh and cold air that hit her face almost made her blood freeze into ice.Occasionally, a few snowflakes floated on her face, leaving a wet and cold touch.

The night is dark gray, the thick clouds are lead gray, and the world presents the same tone against the gray snow, just like a wall whose color has completely peeled off, revealing its original true colors.

The whole world looked bleak and desolate.

Xun Li took a deep breath and closed the window again.She doesn't want to be an M.

It has long been heard that insomniacs like to think wildly in the middle of the night, and usually the night is the time when the literary cells are most developed.

Full of melancholy, she sat on the bed, trying to pass the time and divert her attention with light-hearted romance novels. Maybe it was a psychological effect, and she spent the difficult nights relying on these books that she never had time to read on weekdays.

In the midwinter morning, the sky is very late, and sunlight is an extremely precious thing.So Xunli knew it was morning only through the time displayed on the phone.

She mechanically stepped out of bed, dressed and washed, briefly cleaned up the mug that had been broken into several large pieces, and began to smear on her face in front of the mirror of the dressing table, using concealer to cover up the dark circles under her eyes.

She smiled at the person in the mirror, twitching the corners of her mouth forcefully.

"Yoxi, let's go downstairs to meet Xiaozheng in good spirits!"

Who said "fragile" is called "woman"?The two living examples of Xunli and Akashi Nanami are enough to overturn Shakespeare's remarks.

The stagnant feelings were swept away after thinking of the child, replaced by a peaceful smile that only a mother can have.

Masashi who was sitting across from him spoke unnaturally early, Xunli pretended to be calm and picked up the slice of toast in front of him, and dipped some butter on the blade to spread it happily.

Seijuro's gaze was drawn to her hand, and he stared at her in a daze.

"what happened?"

Xun Li paused, and asked with a smile as usual.

"...that's ketchup."

"?" She was at a loss at first, and the lack of sleep for several nights made her head unresponsive, and it was not until she saw Ya Shi's playful eyes that she suddenly understood.

Embarrassed, she puts down the knife and wipes the red dip off it with a paper towel.

Seijuro chuckled, as if mocking her kindly for being more confused than a child.Xun Li stared at him annoyedly, not even the mood to reapply butter.

Depressedly, she took a bite of the bread, then picked up the half cup of milk in front of her, and gulped it down involuntarily.

"This cup!! Q mouth Q" If Seijuro was gloating just now, this time he made a terrified expression.

Xun Li let out a "hmm" while drinking, waiting for his next words.

"You stole daddy's milk..." The voice became weaker as it went to the back, and the ending disappeared in the warm and dry air.

……

"Puff—cough cough! Cough..."

She was choked by success and coughed violently.Coupled with the sudden stimulation of the cough center that had been suppressed with great difficulty before, the only sound that could be heard in the quiet restaurant was Xunli's strong rhythmic coughing.

It lasted for a full minute.

"Are you okay!?" Seijuro poured warm water for her and beat her back again.

Xunli was incapable of speaking, so he had no choice but to beat the table to vent his anger and burst into an aura of resentment.

"Cough... it's all over now, Xiaozheng, go to school, cough cough!"

"Huh!? You still care about this at such a time!"

"Don't you want to get the perfect attendance award!" It was rare for her to say a complete sentence in one breath.

Masashi swallowed the sarcasm that came to his lips.He frowned, not because she broke the rare moment of tranquility in the morning, in fact, he heard a faint sound last night, could it be her...

"serious cold?"

"Ah, probably."

Xunli finally slowed down, and patted his chest to give himself a smooth flow.

"Mom! What's going on here?" Seijuro was a little fussy, pointing to the red pimple on her exposed arm.

"I'm allergic..." She sighed faintly, the feeling of a relapse of the old disease is really hard.

"Do you want to go to the hospital for an examination?"

"I'll take care of it, you go to school first."

After going around to the chair, Xun Li personally hung the schoolbag on his thin shoulders.

"Pay attention to your health." He told her solemnly.

"Yes, my little doctor."

She watched him walk out of the restaurant with a funny face, and when she turned her head, she was surprised to find that Masashi was still looking at her inexplicably.

"what's wrong?"

"It's nothing."

The husband and wife continued to eat slowly, occasionally exchanging opinions on food.

"The bread tasted terrible this morning."

"Whole wheat?" Xun Li stared at the rough, blackened hard bread in his hand.

"There are high-gluten flour ingredients..." He chewed the food in his mouth carefully, "There is also a taste of buckwheat, probably buckwheat bread."

Wait, is it really a man to discuss this kind of everyday topic with Mr. President in the winter morning?

The point is how sensitive his sense of taste is! !Xun Li growled in his heart.It seems that there is no thing in the world that Yashi can't understand or taste!

"Buckwheat!!" She let go, throwing the bread far away.His voice trembled as he exclaimed, "No wonder you cough and get red pimples...it's all the buckwheat's fault!"

"Are you allergic to buckwheat?" It was the first time he had heard of it.

"...Yeah. It's serious."

In order not to cause unnecessary trouble, Xun Li did not disclose her allergies to them. In this era when even children are allergic to flowers and plants, she does not want to make a fuss.Just avoid contact with allergens in your life.

She was careless, and she didn't notice the ingredients of the bread before she ate it.

After hastily eating this unpleasant breakfast, Xunli's mood did not improve at all.At one o'clock in the afternoon, she was so hungry that her chest was on her back, so she asked Katase to get herself something to eat.

"I finally understand the meaning of "Misfortune comes from the mouth"..." She lay sickly on the marble tabletop.

"Hey, I've ordered plain noodles for you."

Katase put a bowl of steaming Japanese noodles in front of her, and the aroma of fish balls and beef slices whetted her appetite.

Xun Li sincerely said "I am grateful", picked up the chopsticks and started.She struggled with the weird color of the noodles for half a second, and after taking a sip, she briskly moved her chopsticks.

"Asthma...I didn't expect the young lady to be sick." Katase who was standing aside sighed.

"I'm human too." She responded casually, and slowed down her eating after the tip of her tongue was scalded by the soup.

"Young Madam, take care of your health! I heard that an asthma attack can induce other fatal diseases. It's too scary."

Xun Li's hand holding the bowl froze, "Young crow's mouth! It's not like I haven't been sick before! Although it was many years ago..."

She thought it was time to give herself a long vacation.

It's a pity that the plan can't keep up with the changes, and the Songyuan family's affairs are getting worse and worse. I'm afraid it will no longer be possible to quell the big scandal by relying on power.

……

When Xunli turned on the TV, the news programs of each station were reporting the money laundering case of Matsubara Kaizhi in turn.It is understood that he was exposed by his opponent on the spot in the largest canvassing campaign in Tokyo, and his support rate dropped sharply in just one morning.

"Let's look forward to it. The Songyuan family's case will be reported overwhelmingly in today's evening paper."

The content that is talked about by various current affairs commentators is dull in her eyes——

"I really didn't expect that Mr. Songyuan Haizhi, who was very vocal not long ago, was actually prosecuted at a critical moment."

"Although many people speculate that this is just a cover deliberately created by his number one rival, but he even got the overseas bank receipt~"

"It's really unpredictable, isn't it?"

"That's right, that's why many citizens now complain that politicians are just a group of fraudsters who are good at rhetoric!"

……

Xun Li turned off the TV in a tangled state, deciding not to see anything.

Dianzi was probably in a mess long ago, and no one expected that the opponent would be caught off guard when Matsubara Kaizhi's momentum was rising.

She just wanted to be quiet for a while, but there was the sound of Katase's hurried footsteps in the distance. She ran towards the living room and shouted at her——

"Young lady!"

"Ahem, what's the matter?"

"Matsu, Mr. Matsubara..."

"Yes, the money laundering case is real." She closed her eyes lazily and leaned her head on the sofa.

"No, I mean, Mr. Matsubara is here!"

Xunli opened his eyes suddenly, turned his head and looked at Katase quietly for a few seconds, then jumped up from the sofa.

"What did you say? He's coming!?"

Haizhi Matsubara seemed to have just jumped out of the TV screen, still wearing the brand-name suit he wore during the campaign, but the collar was undone, the tie was missing, and the elegant black suit jacket was stained with dust.

He rushed into the gate of Akashi's house full of anger, but it was strange that no one stepped forward to stop him, allowing him to swagger in other people's private areas.

"Are you satisfied!"

Running behind him were Madam Matsubara and Dianzi.

Xun Li rolled his eyes, still feeling that there was no sense of reality.

The image of the father who was able to grovel to her for his future and beg her to speak well in front of Masashi a few days ago has long since disappeared.

"Sorry, what did you say?"

"I know you never take my father seriously. You must take this opportunity to completely destroy me with the Akashi family! Are you satisfied? My life and the glory of our family have been destroyed. Your purpose Did you succeed too?"

"Your life and glory are ruined in your own hands." Xun Li puffed out his chest, at this moment he could only put on a tough attitude to silence him. "Besides, you know my ability in your heart."

"I underestimated you!" He said viciously.The distorted and ferocious face completely lost the demeanor of a politician, "It really is the scourge left by that woman!"

To be honest, the scene with the hypocrite was fun, and she wanted to enjoy it more.It's just that Matsubara Kaizhi's wording has changed, and he beat around the bush and put the responsibility on her mother who is far away in North America.

Xun Li sneered a few times, "Blame us? I'm sorry, father, so far I have never regarded you as my father."

"Dad, calm down first..." Even though Dianzi stood between the two of them, he winked at Xunli to tell her not to speak harshly, and comforted Haizhi Matsubara. "You see, I didn't do much to help with this matter. After all, it's not for us to get involved in the political/sphere. It's not Xunli's fault."

"Enough is enough, stop talking for her!"

"dad……"

"It won't be easy for you even if I fall! The next target is you!"

"Well... To be precise, the target was me." Xun Li shrugged, her reaction was calmer than expected.She really wanted to applaud herself.

The desperate Matsubara Haizhi almost had a heart attack. He pointed at Xunli and couldn't say a word for a long time.

"If there are no other questions, please leave Akashi's house." She nodded slightly, but sweat was dripping from her tightly clenched hands. "The current me is "Akashi Kaoru". "

"You are just a tool for the Akashi clan to carry on the family, major, take yourself seriously!" Mrs. Matsubara said with a cocky look, which greatly enhanced her sense of existence.

"Well, even if I lose this surname, my name will be Vanessa Nelson, and I will take my mother's surname." Xun Li stamped a code to stop her, and stepped forward to face the Songyuan couple. "You gave me nothing...ah, except that dress."

But she was easily given to Akashi as a gift by them, so this time it's even.

After a few rounds of the mouth-to-mouth battle, the Songyuans were completely defeated.If Noriko hadn't stopped the farce, Seijuro would have witnessed a free family ethics drama when he came back from school.

Xunli cast a mocking look at the Songyuan couple, the sweat from her palms slipped down to her fingertips, it is not hard to imagine that she mustered up the courage to fight against Songyuan Haizhi.

"Hey, it's your fault." She turned around and whispered softly against her forehead.

In a short time, she and Dianzi have to sort out their respective moods, and I'm afraid they won't see each other so often again.

As for the Matsubara couple, what awaits them is the hearing of the Supreme Court.

Xunli covered her mouth, and pressed the other hand on the pillow of the sofa, her five fingers sank into the soft fabric, and her long nails were almost digging holes.

"Cough cough..."

"Young Madam!" Katase quickly stepped forward to help her back to her room to rest, but she shook her head and refused.

"Katase, go buy something for me."

Xunli wrote on the sticky notes the relief tablets and aerosols to relieve the symptoms, and asked her to buy them back quickly.

"You really don't need to go to the hospital!? It looks very serious!" Katase still stood at the door lingering a little worriedly.

"It's okay, hurry up!"

Xun Li was a little impatient, and waved her hand impatiently.

She naturally knows the consequences of repeated asthma not just spraying drugs.
