[Net King] The Star of the Palm

After learning about the nursing home, Echizen Longya and Lin Xinglan simply returned to France. The two countries are adjacent to each other. There is no need to take a plane, and the train goes directly to enjoy the scenery along the way.When they returned to France, the summer vacation was almost over, and Lin Xinglan and Lin's mother returned to Japan.Before leaving, the little aunt teased her, why are you here to reunite with your relatives, you are clearly here with Long Ya, every time you go to France, you don't know where you go with Long Ya.

Lin Xinglan couldn't help shaking after thinking about it, it seemed to be true!

——Who is to blame?

The school was as lively as ever. After a long summer vacation, the students were catching up with classmates they hadn't seen for a long time. Wherever they went, there were people whispering in twos and threes.As soon as Lin Xinglan arrived in the classroom, Eiji Kikumaru warmly and overwhelmingly welcomed him.Lin Xinglan reiterated her gender to him again, and showed him her school uniform skirt!Eiji Kikumaru didn't listen to it at all, because those who listened to it would not rush a second time!

After school in the afternoon, when Lin Xinglan arrived at the tennis club, the club members had already started training, but there were not many of them.The school has not stipulated the time for club activities, and the specifics are stipulated by each club according to the actual situation.But generally after the national competition, everyone would want to relax by coincidence.

Although the looseness was not pleasing to the eye, Lin Xinglan didn't ask too much, so she called Oishi Xiuichiro and said a few words.Then, without disturbing anyone, he quietly ran to the social office, and sure enough, he saw Tezuka Kunimitsu sitting behind his desk reading materials.Tezuka Kunimitsu looked up and saw her, and greeted her first: "You are back."

Lin Xinglan immediately answered with a smile: "I'm back. Mr. Tezuka will take me home after school. I brought a lot of souvenirs from France, and Mr. Tezuka has a share. You can take them back to Aunt Tezuka and Uncle Tezuka , and serious Grandpa Tezuka."

Tezuka Kunimitsu nodded.

Lin Xinglan leaned closer: "You didn't have any training during the summer vacation, did you?"

Tezuka Kunimitsu: "No."

Lin Xinglan nodded: "That's right, the national competition is over, you really should take a good rest, by the way, how is your arm? I just asked Mr. Dashi, this holiday has been regularly going to the hospital for checkups, what did the doctor say ?”

Tezuka Kunimitsu: "The doctor said that the recovery is very good, and it is best to continue not exercising."

Lin Xinglan smiled: "That's good, what are you looking at?"

Tezuka Kunimitsu spread out the papers under his hands: "Organize the team members' materials, and take out the materials of the seniors who have retired from the department, and the files will be sealed in the future."

Lin Xinglan: "Shouldn't I do all of this?"

"Yeah." Tezuka Kunimitsu paused, "Anyway, I have nothing to do, so I will share some for you."

Lin Xinglan grinned, "Thank you."

Tezuka Kunimitsu finished sorting out the documents and handed them back to Lin Xinglan for her to check them again.Lin Xinglan believed in Tezuka Kunimitsu's ability to handle affairs very much, so she definitely didn't need the inspection, since she had nothing to do anyway, so she flipped through the team members' files, and accidentally found Tezuka Kunimitsu's one, which happened to have a birthday column , she happened to see the number above.

October seven.

She stared at the string of numbers for a long, long time.

On the first day of school, the training purposely ends early.After cleaning up the court, Tezuka Kunimitsu sent Lin Xinglan home.Lin Xinglan suggested: "Anyway, after school is early today, why not go shopping in the commercial street?"

Tezuka Kunimitsu's silence was spontaneously taken by Lin Xinglan as the default.

September is already autumn, and the hottest time has passed during the summer vacation, but the residual heat of summer is still there.After walking for a while, Lin Xinglan began to sweat, and Tezuka Kunimitsu quietly bought two iced drinks on the street, one for each person.Lin Xinglan bit the straw and stared at Tezuka Kunimitsu with a smile.

Tezuka Kunimitsu was stared at for a long time before he couldn't help asking: "Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?"

Lin Xinglan shook his head: "No, I just think Tezuka-kun is very careful and considerate. If he went out with Long Ya instead, that guy's first reaction would definitely be to send me to buy drinks."

Tezuka Kunimitsu didn't ask who the "Longya" she was talking about, but just nodded silently.It should be said that he has always talked less, never done less.

There were not so many people in the shopping mall at this time, Lin Xinglan and Tezuka Kunimitsu walked around slowly.From one counter to that counter, from the first floor to the seventh floor, and from the seventh floor to the first floor, they stopped at each counter for a while.Tezuka Kunimitsu never said a word, but he seemed very forbearing.In the middle, they each called home and said they would go back late.

It wasn't until the lights came on and the streets became more and more crowded that Lin Xinglan announced the end.Tezuka Kunimitsu kept his expression on the face, but he was silently relieved, he was more tired than shopping with his mother.Women are scary, no, girls are scary.

Lin Xinglan had been secretly observing Tezuka Kunimitsu's expression and demeanor, and of course he could guess what he was thinking, so he said with a smile: "To express my gratitude, let me treat Tezuka-kun to dinner. I know there is a good family restaurant nearby. let's go."

The two went to the family restaurant that Lin Xinglan mentioned. The owner was very enthusiastic and the meals were generous.After walking non-stop all afternoon, Lin Xinglan almost devoured his stomach empty.Although Tezuka Kunimitsu was not like this, the speed of eating was obviously a beat faster than usual.After eating almost, Tezuka Kunimitsu took a sip of water and said slowly: "I will treat you to this meal, after all, you are a girl."

Lin Xinglan shook her head and insisted: "No, I troubled Tezuka-kun to stay with me all afternoon, I should thank you." She rested her chin on both hands, "I have a deep understanding of Tezuka-kun's feelings at this moment, because I often accompany my mother like this Every time I go shopping, I am so tired that I want to leave her alone, but Tezuka-kun, you insisted on walking with me and did not throw me away, which is very rare!"

Tezuka Kunimitsu: "...I didn't intend to leave you alone."

Lin Xinglan looked at him happily: "Of course I know."

Tezuka Kunimitsu looked away uncomfortably.

Stirring the soup in the bowl with a spoon, Lin Xinglan asked casually, "Tezuka-kun, is there anything you like in particular? You were at the mall just now, and you don't seem to have anything in particular."

Tezuka Kunimitsu nodded: "There are no bookstores, no audio-visual stores in the mall, flashy sports equipment stores, and no shops selling fishing gear, so don't pay special attention."

Lin Xinglan: "Huh? Tezuka-kun want these?"

Tezuka Kunimitsu: "Probably."

Lin Xinglan: "There are no expensive things, such as diamond watches, ah, and cars. Don't boys want such things?"

Tezuka Kunimitsu: "...No."

Lin Xinglan thought for a while: "Speaking of books, where did Tezuka-kun see and which book do you want to read the most?"

Tezuka Kunimitsu: "Because of learning ancient Chinese in Mandarin, I've been reading classics recently, and I just saw Murasaki Shikibu's "Pillow Soko"...how about you?"

Lin Xinglan covered her face: "I played the whole summer vacation and didn't read books. It's still the progress before the summer vacation."

The two of them forgot the time when they were chatting, and they didn't know it was closing time until the boss came to urge them, and it was already ten o'clock!Even though it was late, Tezuka Kunimitsu insisted on sending Lin Xinglan home before leaving.

October [-]th was the weekend, Lin Xinglan called Tezuka's home early in the morning, and it was Tezuka's mother who answered the phone. Lin Xinglan confirmed to Tezuka's mother that today was Tezuka Kunimitsu's birthday, and told her not to buy cakes today. I will take it with me when I visit guests in the afternoon.

Tezuka's mother agreed with a smile.

Lin Xinglan woke up Mama Lin and had breakfast, then started to prepare things.

When Mama Lin heard the commotion in the kitchen, she couldn't help but ask, "Xinglan, what delicious food are you doing?"

Lin Xinglan took the time to answer: "Make a cake, I'll make an extra piece for you and put it in the refrigerator for afternoon tea. I might not be back in the afternoon, so remember to make it yourself for dinner."

Mother Lin curled her lips: "What are you doing cakes for?"

"Happy birthday to Tezuka-kun, today is his birthday."

Mother Lin almost spit out her mouthful of water, her eyes were full of resentment in an instant, girl, girl, you are so careful to put yourself in it!

Lin Xinglan's cake was baked in no time. She carefully decorated it with fruits, and used cream and jam to draw a Q version of Tezuka Kunimitsu holding a racket. As soon as she finished drawing, she burst out laughing.A gorgeous birthday cake was born in an instant.

At 04:30 in the afternoon, Lin Xinglan went to Tezuka's house with the wrapped cake and presents. After several knocks, someone came to open the door. A cold voice came through the crack of the door: "Who is there?"

"I'm Lin Xinglan." Lin Xinglan was stunned for a moment when he saw the person who opened the door, and after thinking for a long time, he remembered that it was Anjuin Lingsa who was named in the tennis club, the junior who needed to work to support his family and lived in Tezuka Kunimitsu's house.It was one thing to know that she was lodged here, another to actually see it.

Anjuyuan Lingsha was expressionless: "Auntie said that senior will come, please come in."

Only after entering the door did I find out that Anjuyuan Lingsha had a five-year-old younger brother who was cute, smart and sensible, and could even do housework.

Grandpa Tezuka was cooking potted plants in the backyard, Father Tezuka was watching TV, and Kunimitsu Tezuka was reading in his room.Tezuka's mother was preparing dinner, and Anjuin's younger brother helped. Lin Xinglan hurried into the kitchen to help, and asked the children to watch TV in the living room.Anjuin Lingsa followed into the kitchen, and after breaking the third plate, Tezuka's mother pushed her out dumbfounded.

The dinner was sumptuous, and Lin Xinglan's special cake was well received by everyone.

Tezuka Kunimitsu's lung capacity was very high, and the candle was blown out in one breath, before everyone had time to persuade him to make a wish.

After eating the birthday dinner, Lin Xinglan smiled and handed the wrapped gift to Tezuka Kunimitsu: "It's been a long time since I've been shopping, and you can't see anything after shopping all afternoon. I thought about it for a long time before I came out to give you this. Don't open it yet, read it after I leave, lest I see your dissatisfied expression."

Tezuka Kunimitsu: "...I went to the mall that day to buy me a gift?"

Lin Xinglan nodded and shook his head.

Tezuka Kunimitsu put the gift in the room expressionlessly and sent her home.
