After lunch, Xu Wanghuan led Akashi to see the two horses with great interest. It was said that it was his "great romantic idea", and Akashi could guess what kind of idea it was even without asking.

Halfway through, he changed his mind, saying that he was going to see the progress of the club arrangement in the music classroom, and asked Mao to treat Akashi well, and ran away with Feng Jingye.

The thoughts are so obvious that Mao feels embarrassed.

Arriving at a separate area in the back garden, where the two horses were temporarily placed, Akashi noticed that Mao seemed to like the two horses quite a bit, always touching them gently and tentatively with his hands.

"You like horses?"

Akashi stood beside her, took a look, and probably recognized the breed of the horse.

"Well, I think they are very imposing." Mao nodded without hesitation, "Is there a horse named Yukimaru in Zheng Jun's family? I remember you said it."

"Yes, Yukimaru is raised at the racecourse." Akashi said, "I'll take you to see it when I have time."

"Ok!"

Mao nodded her head vigorously, Akashi was already familiar with some of her small movements, and knew that this meant looking forward to it.

Thinking of this, Akashi lowered his eyes slightly: "I've been too busy recently, I'm sorry."

"There's no need to apologize." Mao blinked, and couldn't help but look at Akashi, "Isn't the basketball game the right thing to do, apologizing for this kind of thing will make me feel very unreasonable."

Akashi smiled, "No one would think that."

Mao said quickly, "I think so."

Akashi didn't dwell on the subject anymore.

Mao paused, and sighed lightly: "Unfortunately, I don't know how to ride a horse."

For physical reasons, there is really no way.

I haven't touched many things, and it is obvious that studying will be very tiring, but when I find that I can't, the strong factor named "Atobe" is invisible in the blood.

But when Mao said this, he didn't really want to worry about anything, it was just a kind of regret.

Basically, there are things that the ladies and young masters of every family know, but she still can't.

It's just such a sigh.

"Yukimaru is very docile, I shouldn't have any problem with you." Akashi's voice was steady, without any particular ups and downs.

"Masaki-kun seems to be very good at riding horses, right?" Mao then didn't notice Akashi's understated invitation for a moment. She was actually a little distracted in her mind, remembering the incident when she secretly went riding a horse and almost broke her head when she was a child. At this moment, Akashi said This, she didn't understand it was an invisible invitation - after all, she had already said before that she was going to the racecourse.

There are two levels of "good at" and "knowledge", and Zhengjun seems to be the best of them.

Mao thought so, so he asked.

"Fortunately."

Akashi concealed the disappointment of the disappointment in his heart without any trace, and instead proposed, "If you want to learn, I can teach you during the summer vacation."

"No need, there must be a lot of important things to do during the summer vacation, I really want to learn so I can hire a special teacher." Mao rebuffed very considerately.

For a person like Akashi, summer vacation is definitely not a vacation. There are no more courses than when he was in school. Thankfully, there is so much time spent riding horses all day long.

Mao always remembered that his brother would take time to play with her every time. When she grew up and became sensible, she would know what he had compressed in exchange for those time. After she grew up, she got better, but it was not particularly easy.

Hearing this, Akashi turned his eyes sideways and looked at Mao seriously: "This is also a very important matter."

"..."

Mao suddenly felt like he was hit by something, and his heartbeat seemed to be a little faster.

"It's okay, I haven't reached the point where I really want to learn."

Fortunately, the tone is not blunt, it can be regarded as adapting to the situation.

Akashi noticed that Mao had become a little nervous, and it could be seen from the way she quickly looked away that he slowed down the pace a little, not wanting Mao to feel that he suddenly entered an uncomfortable atmosphere, so he changed the subject: "Is Su Wang-kun gone?" Club room?"

"Well, it hasn't been set up yet." Mao looked at him from bottom to top, looking smart and playful, "Would you like to take a look at Masamune-kun?"

This is another purpose of Akashi's trip, and of course he readily agreed.

This section of the road was a bit long, Mao deliberately wanted to walk faster, but found that Akashi's pace was still so unhurried, he couldn't help saying: "Masaki-kun, you are walking slower than me."

Akashi smiled: "It's you who walked fast."

"It's a bit far away." Mao briefly explained the reason, and seeing Akashi's indifference, he added, "I'm afraid it will delay your afternoon class."

"Will not."

Akashi stepped forward in two steps, shortening the distance between him and Mao, and he had a certain aura that was cool enough even in summer, so Mao unconsciously slowed down with his pace.

"There's still a lot of time." Akashi looked at the fine sweat oozing from her forehead, and felt a little worried in his heart: Mao's health is indeed not good, but it's just that he will break out of sweat.

While thinking about what to do, he took out the handkerchief he carried with him and handed it to Mao.

Mao suddenly showed an annoyed look, opened his mouth, but said nothing.

Akashi guessed that she probably felt a little embarrassed by this.

Mao was indeed distressed by her lack of motor nerves, not to mention that she was trying to push herself to walk faster, and in the end she had to ask Zheng Jun to take care of her body.

It's really... so useless.

Mao was so frustrated that she didn't want to talk. In the next few minutes, no matter how much Akashi raised the topic, she would just "come and go" in a regular manner, losing her usual vigor and vitality.

It was the first time that Akashi felt that his behavior could be so wrong. While Mao was annoyed, he might not have felt wrong.

If you care about it, you will worry about gains and losses, and it will affect your mood. Too much emotion will often affect correct rational judgment.Even though Akashi did nothing wrong, there was still a voice in his heart telling him: You should have made her happy.

Fortunately, Mao recovered quickly, and she was completely fine when she arrived downstairs in the teaching building. In fact, her awkwardness this time was not only due to her loss of poor sportsmanship, but also because she did not want to show such a shameful side in front of Akashi——this One point, Mao later figured it out.

"Atobe?" A female voice sounded, it was the same grade student Saizonoji Kazuo who stepped out of the teaching building and was wearing a uniform. She saw Mao at a glance, and of course Seijuro Akashi next to her, " ——and Akashi-kun. Are you two dating?"

"Xionji." Mao greeted her with a friendly smile, and instead of arbitrarily judging the familiarity between Xiyuanji and Akashi from the other party's wording, he still introduced to Akashi, "This is Xiyuanji Kazune, my classmate classmate."

"Miss Xiyuanji." Akashi nodded politely, without saying anything.

He has the impression in his mind that she is the only daughter of the Xiyuan Temple family of the previous family, but at the moment, he is on campus, especially Mao is present, he doesn't want to do the things at the banquet here.

Saizonji pursed his lips secretly, knowing that Akashi had no intention of showing face, so he shifted his gaze to Mao, and she smiled and said, "I helped put the quiz paper on your desk in the morning."

"Thank you." Mao's eyes curled up like crescent moons.

Didn't answer her "dating" question, but the two don't seem to be unfamiliar, especially Akashi Seijuro... Would he really do this for the marriage partner during the lunch break on weekdays?

Xiyuan Temple couldn't understand it, so he simply waited and watched, waved his hand and left in a friendly gesture.

Mao continued to lead Akashi to the music classroom, and met many people along the way, who would take the initiative to say hello to Mao, and everyone could recognize Akashi next to her, even without an introduction, and there were a few topics to talk about has completely deviated.

"Our department store has recently been taken care of by Akashi-kun's family. I wonder if Akashi-kun is interested in coming to see the ribbon-cutting in the new district next time?"

"I was lucky enough to go to the banquet at Akashi-kun's house last time. I don't know if Akashi-kun still has an impression of me."

"I need to ask Akashi-kun's family to take care of you in the future! The stock price trend of your company is really good recently. My father always asks me to use Akashi-kun as an example!"

Of course, those who praise Akashi occasionally also praise Mao, the main body is of course on Akashi's side, some people are not sure about Akashi's attitude towards Mao, after all, they are baby relatives who were arranged before birth, and Mao Atobe has been abroad for so many years , there should be no affection at all, and with this in mind, most of them still selectively bypassed Mao.

Akashi's response throughout the whole process was very polite and concise, without embarrassing anyone, but he clearly expressed his refusal to continue the in-depth conversation in his words.

Anyway, most of them are for friendly greetings, which is understandable.

Mao stood quietly watching from the side, without interjecting, showing no resentment.

Akashi noticed that several people had deliberately bypassed Mao in the eager conversation, but it was obvious that Mao was the ladder they used to talk to him in the first place.

Without Mao, he wouldn't be standing here talking to them at all.

And Akashi also understood what these people were measuring.

"Mao."

During the conversation, when the other party hadn't left, Akashi looked sideways at the little girl beside him, "Is the floor where Mr. Xu is on the fifth floor?"

"……Um."

Suddenly being asked a question, Mao took a moment to answer—didn't Zhengkun know about this before?

Mao remembered she had said it when she came over.

"That's coming soon." Akashi smiled at her shallowly, it was a facial movement that was too different from a polite smile, the softness almost overflowed from those magnificent red pupils.

And the spectators finally realized how close he was to Akashi Atobe, who called the young master of the Suo family only "Suo-kun".

Mao.
