Akashi Seijuro sat with her all afternoon in Kamakura until Junko's mood slowly calmed down.Watch the sun slowly set until the sky is filled with orange sunset glow.

It's not a bad thing for the negative emotions that have been accumulated for a long time to erupt, and he is by his side, giving Shunzi a great sense of security.When she calmed down, the depression in her heart was much less.

Although Shunzi has never resisted her arrangement, Ximen Chie still made a special call to her brother just thinking of her daughter's hurt eyes in the coffee shop.Shunzi, who had been crying until she had no energy to calm down slowly, recalled her mobile phone and saw several missed calls from her uncle.Hearing her hoarse voice, although Uncle Fujiwara felt distressed, he still persuaded her to listen to her mother.This person who played the actual role of "father" in her life has more weight than her mother.

And Shunzi was always unwilling to let them down.

After two days of adjusting her mood, Shunzi told her friends that she was "not going to be a model".Although everyone felt sorry and puzzled, they still respected her choice.Only Kise Ryota was the most disappointed, his wish to shoot the cover with Shunzi was in vain.But he still respected her decision, and said with a smile, "It's been so long, maybe there will be a chance in the future."

After that, Shunzi's life remained peaceful, and that was good, she comforted herself, as she could spend more time with the people she liked.However, what is disappointing is that Tezuka, who went to Germany for medical treatment, did not have much time to accompany her.She sometimes feels confused, but more often she buries these emotions deeply in her heart.

Everything is calm, Shunzi spends more and more time in the old house, Heizi Zhe also takes the tram to Kamakura to take her out for shopping from time to time, and every few days Yuji Ninzu will ask her to go to the movies together.Of course, the "date" with Ryota Kise and Mizuki Miori is also indispensable.Although everyone noticed her abnormality, Shunzi showed great resistance, making her friends worried, but at the same time, she didn't dare to ask a few more questions.

However, during the long summer vacation, the incident of having a big fight with Tomoko and overturning the other party's dressing table was still a highlight of Shunzi's quiet summer.

Tomoko Fujiwara likes to sneer at her, especially taking the trouble to compare her to Sayaka.Although Shunzi never paid much attention to her, for Tomoko, this was something she liked very much.Although Uncle Fujiwara would definitely punish her when he heard these malicious words occasionally, Shunzi never told the truth, which made her feel safe in most cases.

Shunzi has always been tolerant and tolerant towards this cousin who is the same age as her.Even though she would turn around and forget about it because she liked the things her mother gave her, but because she felt that it was unfair to Tomoko to steal more of her uncle's attention, she always backed down.

Until that day, Tomoko Fujiwara took a fancy to the hairpin that Kise Ryota gave to Shunzi, and after failing to ask for it, she became angry and threw it.Shunzi couldn't tolerate this.She doesn't have many friends, and the thoughtful gift from each friend is very important to her.

"Apologize, now." Shunzi looked at her coldly, his bright black eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of ice, so dark that it made one's heart tremble.The sullen girl looked so proud and proud of her mother that Tomoko couldn't help but flinch.Ximen Chie didn't have much affection for this niece, and she didn't joke with her when they met.Every time she saw this cold and proud aunt, Tomoko felt a little apprehensive.However, realizing that she was scared, she kicked Sunja in a fit of rage, and said something completely thoughtless.

"What qualifications do you have for me to apologize, you don't even have a father, begging for nothing to live in my house..."

A string that had been tense in my mind broke with a "snap".Before Tomoko could finish speaking, Shunzi picked up the book on the table and threw it, hitting her arm.The unhealed wound on her heart was torn open abruptly, bleeding profusely, her words hit Shunzi's pain spot exactly.

The more he pretended not to care, and covered the scar tightly, the more Shunzi felt unbearable and resentful when he was pointed out mercilessly.A gentle personality does not mean that you have no temper.She stared straight at Tomoko Fujiwara, as if she might pounce on her neck at any moment.

"How dare you hit me—" she screamed in horror and fear, frightened by Shunzi's eyes, she couldn't help but want to back away, "Why did you hit me!"

Tomoko Fujiwara, who was so well protected, was just a vicious little girl.Seeing such a terrifying Fujiwara Junko, she was instinctively terrified.

"That's it," Shunzi walked past her to Tomoko's room, and swept everything off the dressing table expressionlessly, "everything on it is mine."

Hearing the screams with a different tone and the sound of things falling to the ground afterwards, the uncle who just got off work didn't even have time to change his shoes, and hurried upstairs with a half-loose tie around his neck.Seeing the messy bedroom, he scolded his daughter without thinking, "Why are you losing your temper with Shunzi again?"

"It's not me!" Tomoko burst into tears immediately, defending herself anxiously and angrily.

"I did it," Shunzi looked at his uncle, calmly admitting that Tomoko thought it was too righteous, "I also wanted to overturn the dressing table."

It's just that the solid wood is too heavy, and it may not be successful.

"What's going on?" Uncle was stunned for a few seconds to digest this seemingly impossible fact. He rubbed his swollen temples, turned around with a cold face, "Follow me to the study."

When he asked Sophon, Shunzi didn't say a word. Sophon, who thought that his father came to teach Shunzi a lesson, lost his temper after he asked the question, and didn't dare to answer, faltering left and right.

"What qualifications do you have for me to apologize? You don't even have a father. You are a vagrant who lives in my house for nothing." Shunzi looked at his uncle with the same dark eyes as his mother, and spoke in a steady, word-by-word manner. He repeated that sentence, word for word, as if he had chewed it countless times in his heart.

"Can I go out for a while?" She looked up, as if she was not unhappy, and even smiled, "It's too boring here."

Uncle's expression changed in an instant, but looking at Shunzi with cold eyes, he sighed hesitantly, and waved his hand to agree with her to leave.

Wandering the streets aimlessly, I walked to Teiko Middle School without knowing it.She slowly went upstairs and hid in the small secretary's office in a daze.

I don't know how long it took, but my mother's phone call came.Shunzi didn't want to answer it, but it kept ringing.Numbly, she took down the battery and threw it away. The battery fell to the floor, and the small dull sound could be heard clearly in the silent room.There is no point in answering the phone. Today, it must be the same as usual.

"I'm so tired," Shunzi muttered to herself, the tears at the corners of her mouth were salty, she buried her head on her knees, "How can you be so tired..."

She stayed there until nine o'clock in the evening, hiding in a corner in a daze until Akashi Seijuro found her.The incandescent lamp came on, and she narrowed her eyes uncomfortably while hiding in the darkness, and looked at the boy standing by the door.

"I really love to cry," the young man with red golden eyes approached, half kneeling down to help her wipe away tears, "the eyes are swollen."

Shunzi hummed, with a strong nasal sound.After a long silence, he suddenly said, "But crying doesn't solve the problem."

His golden eyes gave people a great sense of oppression.Shunzi was embarrassed by being seen through, and turned her head away from him.

Akashi didn't care, stood up and opened the dark curtains.In the dark blue night sky, tonight's moon casts silver light, and the stars are not very obvious.

"Complaining about my mother's partiality, my father's cruelty, and others' bitterness, but," he put his hands on the window sill and looked down at her, "what's the use of complaining?"

"Did I do something wrong?" Shunzi wiped his face carelessly, unable to accept his words for a while.

"Your mistake is that," Akashi turned his eyes to the night sky, and the only smile on the corner of his mouth disappeared, "You have too high expectations for others. If you don't have expectations, you won't be disappointed."

His eyes were unusually deep, as if he was speaking to Shunzi, but also as if he was admonishing himself.

"Everyone has his own way to go," Shunzi raised his head, and saw the corners of his lips slightly raised, "There is no need for people to be considerate of each other."

The gentle but indifferent voice was more like a blow to the head, and she suddenly woke up.Why should others understand you?Expecting others to do justice for you, relying on others for comfort and encouragement when you are sad, and crying when you feel sad and disappointed, such an annoying person, even if you are yourself, will feel annoying.

While complaining that her mother didn't care about herself, she didn't care about her mother, did she?The hardships of working hard in a foreign country, the difficulty of trying to win the approval of the Ximen chaebol, and the innumerable efforts to take care of Sayaka who is autistic...Even a genius has limited ability.

There is no need for people to be considerate of each other, because the most important thing for human beings is not themselves?Everyone's joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys have their own personal experience.Shunzi took a deep breath and let it out slowly, as if she had just floated up from the deep sea.She leaned on the wall and stood up slowly, wiping away the tears on her face with the other hand.

Akashi looked at her flushed eyes, went to the door and turned off the light, leaving only the cold silver light from the window in the room.Shunzi followed his example just now, leaning on the window sill to look at the scenery outside.

The evening wind of the summer night blows gently, and white clouds float in the sky, occasionally covering a corner of the moon.The trees on the campus were stirred by the night wind, and there was a rustling sound as the leaves rubbed against each other.On the night of the summer vacation, there were no street lights on the campus of Nuo University, and the silver moonlight shone like a veil on the gravel road.Everything is very quiet, the quiet night, and the occasional birdsong also makes people feel comfortable.Shunzi stretched out her hand, saw Qinghui spraying it on her palm, and then slowly put it away.

"This world is not as good as you imagined, and not every effort will be rewarded." Akashi stood beside him, quietly watching her open and close her hands tirelessly.

Neither of them spoke, and the silence enveloped the small space, but it didn't feel depressing.Akashi half leaned against the wall, staring at the flowers half shrouded in darkness not far away, wondering what he was thinking.The moonlight was still beautiful, and the quiet starry sky had magical powers to soothe the soul. Shunzi stared blankly at the lines on his palm.She suddenly thought of many things, many things stored in her memory that were almost forgotten——

On summer nights, grandma drank a glass of plum wine and lay her arms around her on the porch looking at the stars, Virgo, Orion, Ursa Major, Ursa Minor, she always forgot after hearing it.The only thing that can be found is probably the Big Dipper.From her grandmother, Shunzi received a lot of love, so much love that it was impossible to count, it was able to accompany and warm her for the rest of her life.

Hei Zizhe also used it in exchange for Shunzi's secret fruit candy, which has been the same kind for more than ten years.She is picky and only likes that brand of strawberry hard candy.Even if you can't buy it in a convenience store, there will always be stock at Azhe.

The boy who took her hand for a walk together, even if he was not good at words, would try his best to express "I like you".The way he stood on the court and played seriously, he was more handsome than any boy she had ever seen.

Shogo Huizaki, who doesn't look very kind and has a vicious voice in everything he does, is always careful with her and supports her no matter what Sunja does.When others want to bully her, she is always the first to stand up.

Kise Ryota, who is always joking, helped her gain a firm foothold in the magazine step by step, comforted her when she was down, lent her a shoulder when she was crying, and respected all her choices even if Shunzi quit suddenly...

Mizuki Miori, who has been with her all the time, who will definitely stand by her side even if she doesn't know the inside story, Akashi Seijuro who is tolerant and strict to her, and Ninzu Yuji who calmly pulls her away, are all, very Very important friend.

"But," after an unknown amount of time, she slowly withdrew her hand, slightly raised the corners of her mouth, and there was an inconspicuous but genuine smile in her eyes, "It's not that bad, is it?"

"Well," the young man's side face was elegant and handsome under the moonlight, and he spoke at a moderate speed, "No, it's not that bad."

Growth may take a long, long time, or it may just happen in an instant.

Although the process might be hard, Sunja wiped off the tears on his face, and followed Akashi down the stairs step by step, feeling relaxed, but it wasn't necessarily a bad thing.
