[Tutor] Spirited Away

chapter40. Fair trade

As soon as she got back to the coffee shop, Chihiro locked herself in the room, huddled in a small corner with her knees hugged.

The light was not turned on in the room with the curtains closed, and the meager sunlight that inadvertently penetrated made this small room even more lonely.

When alone, Chihiro can finally admit that she doesn't want Sawada to get married, very much.

She understands her personality, if Sawada gets married, they will never go back.

A gust of wind rose from the entrance of the Time Tunnel, carrying fragments of memory and rolling towards the exit.

She remembered that everything started in a rare and frigid winter in Sicily.

A man named Tsunayoshi Sawada appeared in Chihiro's life without warning, grabbed her hand at a certain critical point, and left the danger far behind her.

Since then, their lives have been held together by a girl named Xiya. Although there were big and small changes one after another, and she was beaten and cried again and again, Sawada always stood behind her silently and told her with actions. : I am here, don't be afraid.

She still remembers, on that cool night terrace, she lost control and cried helplessly to Oki Sawada, what should I do without you.

what would i do without you

Who will tolerate my willfulness unconditionally, who will answer my phone anytime and anywhere, who will give me a free embrace when I am weak and sad?

She doesn't want Sawada to fall in love with her because Chihiro doesn't know how she can face him with a normal expression if the friendship they maintain turns into love.

Just because you have lost, you are more likely to worry about gains and losses.She was afraid that if one day Sawada turned into Bailan and cut off all ties with her in such a decisive way, she would really have a mental breakdown.

She just didn't want to get hurt anymore, so she closed herself off in this timid and extreme way.

But now...if possible, as long as Sawada can stay, she doesn't mind using love as a rope to tie Sawada to her side.

As long as he can continue to accompany her...as long as he stays...

Please, just let me be selfish again...

……the last time.

While thinking this way, Chihiro had already taken out the phone from her handbag, slowly pressed a string of numbers with her trembling index finger, and dialed.

beep.

beep.

beep……

One after another, busy voices sounded out one after another dully, and the ending lengthened infinitely in Chihiro's ears.The knuckles of the five fingers holding the phone had already started to turn blue and white, she bit her lower lip tightly, her right hand almost couldn't bear the strength, and she fell hard to the ground with the phone.

Please, Sawada... answer the phone quickly...

beep……

If she misses this opportunity, maybe she will never have the courage to tell him again...

beep……

beep……

tell him……

"Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable, please try again later."

"Let me marry you."

The pinna of the ear was pressed against the sound outlet of the mobile phone, Chihiro seemed to have not heard the electronic notification tone, and spoke in a trembling voice.She stared blankly at the ceiling covered by the pale feather-colored shadows with fangs and claws, letting tears trickle down.

"Although I don't love you, please let me marry you."

"I can't live without you, please..."

"Let me marry you..."

In the end, the voice was swallowed by endless sobs, Chihiro threw the phone out violently, letting everything go to zero at the loud sound of hard objects colliding with the floor, crying bitterly.

Chihiro didn't know when Miss Sophia walked into her room, when she remembered to look up, the woman with a dignified and demure smile was already sitting quietly beside her.

"Need coffee?"

With that said, a steaming cup of cappuccino was handed to Chihiro.Chihiro was stunned, thanked in a low voice with a hoarse voice, then held the mug with both hands, and stepped into the rising mist with his expression.

Sophia lightly smoothed Qianxun's messy long hair, and said with a smile, "Ah, who made our Qianxun unhappy?"

Chihiro lowered her head and said nothing.

"What happened, I cried so sadly." Ignored, Sophia was not annoyed, she still smiled gently and generously, "If you don't mind, you can talk to the almighty Miss Sophia, maybe I can help you what."

Chihiro stared at the froth on the surface of the coffee in a daze. After a while, she heard her own voice slowly swaying in the air.

"Hey, Miss Sophia. There is such a person. I can't help but miss him if I don't see him. If he is angry with me, I will feel uneasy and afraid. As long as he is here, I will feel at ease... He can give I have a sense of security that I don’t have to be afraid even if the sky falls..."

Having said that, she suddenly fell silent.

Sophia was startled, and then laughed.

"Silly girl, so you like him."

Chihiro was startled, and raised her head suddenly as if she had been electrocuted.

"Miss Sophia... what did you say?"

Sophia's eyes widened in surprise, "Eh? Haven't you found out yet?"

...So you like him.

...I like him.

……like him?

What a joke!

Qianxun was almost choked by her own saliva, she patted her chest and coughed desperately, until the corners of her eyes welled up with tears again, she managed to calm down, and said with difficulty, "Suo, Miss Sophia, don't tease me, you... this joke is a little bit Neither is funny."

Sophia didn't insist either, she just rubbed Qianxun's forehead hair with a smile, and said with a half-smile, "So our Qianxun is still an innocent girl."

"...Miss Sophia!!!"

Time continues to move forward without interruption.

The hour hand, minute hand, and second hand, from short to long, from slow to urgent, depict the phantom of time like annual rings on the dial.

The long summer has become a page-turning history, and the ensuing autumn and winter passed quickly, rushing to the critical point at the end of the year, and passing the baton to the new spring.

People call the season at the beginning of a year the spring of hope—say "Farewell" to the past behind you, and say "Hello" to the future in front of you.

Selena and Joe's wedding date is set at the end of April - April 27 - Selena's birthday.

Chihiro, who appeared at their wedding, abandoned her makeup and high-heeled shoes, stepped on canvas shoes, wore a knitted sweater and aqua blue dress, with her face up to the sky.Due to the traffic jam on the road, when she rushed into the church panting, there was no one there.

Chihiro was taken aback, and looked at his watch—it was only four or ten minutes late, so the wedding wouldn't be over, would it?

Just when she was so anxious that she didn't know what to do, Qian Xun suddenly heard a faint noise coming from the back door.She patted her head in frustration, lifted the strap of her shoulder bag and ran towards the source of the sound.

It turned out that the ceremony was over at this time, and all the guests walked out of the church to wait for the newcomers to throw bouquets.

The sun is shining on the city, and the blue sky is like washing.The air is filled with the fresh aroma of grass leaves.

The white dove flutters its wings, passes through the rose petals flying in mid-air, and boils back to the sky.

Selena, in a white wedding dress, walked down the steps, holding her husband's arm.

Now she has no charming smoke, no charming red lips, and her smile is clean and sweet.

Looking at her friend who was smiling with her husband, Chihiro suddenly felt her eyes moist.

The old lady who once pointed at her nose and yelled at her has now found her most precious love. The man she is holding hands with now is fundamentally different from the men she has been in contact with or even slept with in the past, because this will be a The person closest to her who will take her place as her parents from now on.

Chihiro wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, clapping her hands desperately amidst the ethereal and elegant singing of the choir.

What she had lost was finally compensated by her closest friend.

From this point of view, God is still very fair.

While in a trance, a black shadow fell straight into her arms from mid-air.Chihiro blinked blankly, and looked down—it turned out to be the bouquet that Selena held in her hand just now.

It is said that the woman who can receive the bouquet will become the next bride in the near future.

"……Eh?"

When he looked up, he saw Selena's sly smile.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Qianxun, she smiled embarrassingly, and nodded embarrassingly to the crowd.When she was about to turn back into the church, she suddenly felt that someone was watching her.

Chihiro froze, took a deep breath, and looked in a certain direction.

The sunlight spread inch by inch along the line of sight, slowly spreading toward the man in black standing under the stone gate.

He stood motionless on several stone steps, with a slender figure and handsome eyebrows, forming a delicate oil painting.

Across the crowd, he quietly watched Chihiro.I haven't seen him for a few months, but he doesn't seem to have changed much, he still has the elegant and gentle appearance in his memory.Fragments of golden light fell into the brown eyes, like a vast ocean sparkling in the setting sun.

The moment their eyes met, Chihiro quickly lowered her eyes, clutched the bouquet in her hand and hurried into the church.

When passing the drinking area, Qianxun was stopped by a familiar voice without warning.

The owner of the voice was an extremely beautiful woman, with wavy curly hair on her left shoulder, and an off-the-shoulder, low-cut, waist-waisted wine-red dress that fitted her enchanting figure.She raised her head slightly, her bright red lips curved into a sexy arc.

"Are you... Ogino Chihiro?"

Chihiro realized instantly that she was Sawada Tsunayoshi's wife, Tiffany.

For some reason, Chihiro immediately had a very strong sense of repulsion towards the woman in front of her.Biting her lower lip, she tried to keep her tone calm.

"Hello, Miss Tiffany."

"Miss Tiffany?" Tiffany raised her eyebrows, with a half-smile, "Shouldn't it be more appropriate for you to call me 'Ms. Sawada'?"

Chihiro frowned, picked up a glass of Burgundy on the table and turned around, but Tiffany's long and slender arms blocked her way.

"What's the matter?" Qianxun raised her eyes lightly, paused, and then deliberately emphasized it as if ironically, "Ms. Sawada?"

Tiffany suddenly smiled charmingly.She brought her lips close to Chihiro's ear, her slightly hoarse voice was ghostly and enchanting.

"Why is Miss Qianxun so unfriendly? I really want to have a good chat with you." There was another burst of sharp laughter, she straightened up, and stroked the wall of the crystal cup with her slender index finger, consciously or not Added bluntly, "Talk about... the 'precious' time you sacrificed to my husband."

Chihiro was silent for two seconds, then smiled angrily.

She squinted at Tiffany. "Are you showing off to me now?"

Tiffany curled her lips, noncommittal.

"Then I'm afraid you will be disappointed, because there is nothing between me and Sawada Tsunayoshi. However," Chihiro shrugged and raised her voice sarcastically, "since just getting a man can make you get carried away, then I will Let's cooperate with you."

As she said that, Chihiro raised her wine glass at Tiffany.Then with a chic wave of his hand, he poured all the red wine in the glass onto her fair and delicate face.

- "Cheers."

Tiffany stared blankly at Chihiro, completely stunned.It took a full half a minute to react, and suddenly let out a shocking scream.

Everyone present cast puzzled looks at them, including Sawada who was standing at the door of the church having a good chat with Joe.

Chihiro put down the empty wine glass, gestured apologetically to the bewildered Selena, picked up her shoulder bag, turned and left.

Sawada was taken aback, greeted Joe, and chased after Chihiro without thinking, but was suddenly pulled back when he passed by Tiffany.

"you……"

"If you catch up, you will regret it."

Regardless of her embarrassment, Tiffany looked straight into Sawada's eyes and said coldly.

"Sawada Tsunayoshi, as you said, our marriage is a transaction. Now that you have obtained the ring you need from me as you wished, now is the time for you to repay me."

The author has something to say: Well, didn’t 270 ruin Vongola’s ring? He married Tiffany for the ring that could replace Vengley’s ring (tongue twister ==).The family behind Tiffany is also awesome.

In fact, if Chihiro hadn't told 270 "Don't like me", he wouldn't have married Tiffany.

So I changed it! !Ask for praise! ! !
