"A Lin, I'm going to the pantry, do you want me to add some hot water for you?"

"Huh? Thank you, I don't need it for now."

"Ok."

……

Zhi Xi raised her head from the file and stretched herself.

Today is the second day of her formal work in the frozen office. Compared with the previous day, she has really started to do a lot of things, and she is not as overwhelmed as before.Although Nanasaki Sakai, the director of the Exploration Department, is young, his work ability is indeed very strong, but compared with Kobayashi Nami, who had led Zhixi during the workplace experience, it is still a little worse.

However, what makes Zhixi care is not about work, but the attitude of her colleagues around her.

As a newcomer in the workplace, it is normal to encounter difficulties at work sometimes. It is better to say that she has already prepared for such a situation before officially going to work.After all, this is a real workplace, and it is not of the same nature as her past week-long workplace experience. The colleagues have no obligation to take care of her because she is a newcomer.

But after only two days in the job, Zhi Xi has already felt the unprecedented enthusiasm of the colleagues around her, even those who have just passed by and who are not in the same department as her, will deliberately stick their heads in and ask her if they want to help refill the water.

Don't think about it, they must be because of the attitude of those three people to her a few days ago...and their status as the girlfriend of the hero Deku.

Frankly speaking, Zhi Xi didn't like this feeling.

Rather than gaining the friendliness of others because of her so-called "identity", she is more willing to rely on her work ability and achievements to win everyone's recognition and respect, but it's too early to think about it now.

The hour hand slowly points to "5", and the working hours of the day are coming to an end.Sakai Nanasaki pushed the door in from the outside, with the heat of the outdoor season still on her body, she wiped the sweat from her forehead, and put a report collected from the scene on the desk.

"Oh, that's right," Sakai said to Zhixi while tidying up the desk: "The courier brother just sent a bouquet of roses for you. I asked him to put it at the front desk first."

After drinking a glass of water, he blinked narrowly, "It was sent by Mr. Lugu. Hey, it's so good to be in love."

"Senior Sakai, don't laugh at me."

Zhi Xi put away her things and stood up, smiling softly, "Then I'll go first, see you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow, have a nice date tonight."

……

After receiving a large bouquet of beautifully packaged roses from the front desk, Zhixi took a subconscious breath while holding the bouquet, and the faint rose fragrance came to her face.

She freed up one hand, and opened a small card tied on the surface of the bouquet, on which was neatly written in black pen: Zhixi, I hope you like it.

You can tell who wrote it at a glance.

This is not like the way Lvgu Chujiu would have, Zhixi thought to himself, he must have asked the people around him questions such as "what's his girlfriend's favorite" and got the answer before he took the action.The green-haired boy in my memory was a person who would blush and smoke even if he looked at each other for a few seconds, and he didn't dare to hold hands, let alone do such a romantic - and sophisticated thing.

An hour ago, Green Valley sent her a message to invite her to have dinner together in the evening, and she should be waiting outside by now.Zhi Xi didn't stay any longer, picked up the bouquet and prepared to turn around and walk out.

But unexpectedly, he met the man who had just come out of the office.

"……good evening."

Hong Jiaodong's fingers moved slightly, and after a pause of two seconds, he slid off the metal handle without a trace, with a normal expression on his face.

Such greetings are a little bit funny, especially seeing the young man's expression of being stunned for a second, Zhi Xi couldn't help but let out a "poof", the corners of her lips raised, "Good evening, Jiao Dong, are you going to have dinner? "

"Um... are you with him?"

The young man with a handsome face and a gentle voice looked at the rose in her hand meaningfully.

"Is it a long time? Yes."

"...Then, be careful on the road."

"Know it."

Zhi Xi pushed the door out with flowers in her arms, and after the glass door was closed behind her, she sighed slightly.

There is no way... I can only pretend that I didn't see it.

Pretending not to see the real emotion that flashed in his eyes.

At the last glance, he was still standing there, looking so sad.

And the atmosphere is awkward.

Although they both tacitly did not show this to each other just now.

After going through many things in the past, she finally became a real human being again. Now Zhixi is dealing with feelings, and she is no longer as confused as she was at the time—it would be better to say that when she recalled what happened in this world seven years ago, She would cover her face in shame and guilt and wail: How could I be so clueless at that time?

At that time, she could just focus on completing the task and not have any other burdens, but this is not the case now.

The emotion of "like" has never been a light and fluffy sentence uttered from the mouth, but a very important thing.

The golden and drunken fire clouds burned all the way to the sky, and the evening wind gradually picked up, sweeping away the undissipated heat from the surface.It was the rush hour for getting off work, and there was a lot of traffic on the road. Occasionally, people passing by would give her a slightly surprised look - which quickly turned into a smile.

The bouquet of roses was a bit big, a little bit blocking the vision, Zhi Xi turned around and raised her head vigorously, only to see a person who covered herself tightly in front of a gray car not far away was waving to her.

The foolishness of that man could be sensed from a distance.

She smiled brightly and walked over.

"Night, night, good evening!"

After getting into the car, Izuku Lvgu didn't start the car immediately, but sat stiffly in the driver's seat, looking at her with both eyes, stumbling on the road.

"Izuku and Jiao Dong are similar, in terms of talking," Zhixi pursed her lips to hold back a smile, "Thank you for the flowers, I like them very much."

A few words calmed down the slightly awkward atmosphere when they first met, and she knew why the 22-year-old boy next to her was nervous just now.After all, for Green Valley, this is the first time the two have been alone in seven years... Also, the first "date" after confirming their relationship.

In the past, he was very shy, not to mention that now they are to some extent... more like a man and a woman who met for the first time after being married by their parents.

Green Valley Izuku opened his mouth, the heart that was beating almost irregularly in his left chest gradually slowed down, the young man's stature still looked a little thin, and the tendons on the side of his neck were particularly obvious when he raised his head.The Adam's apple slid up and down, and he said, "Zhixi, is there anything you want to eat?"

"I can do anything, just go out and see what you like to eat."

"Then I know that there is a restaurant that serves delicious pork chop rice—wait, but we..."

The tension that had just calmed down rose again, and Izuku Midoriya unconsciously tied his tongue: How can someone take someone to eat that kind of food on a first date!

Ahhhh, Mineta did so much homework before departure! ——Although most of the "suggestions" he gave were unusable.

Midoriya Izuku stared at the road ahead without squinting. Looking at the past from the perspective of Kee, he could see his eyelashes trembling slightly, and the knuckles of his fingers holding the steering wheel were bluish white due to the force.

"—Yes, just pork chop rice."

"you……"

"Don't Izuku like to eat?"

Zhixi tentatively raised her hand, reached out, and patted his thigh lightly, "Don't be so nervous, Izuku, it's not the first time we've met."

As soon as he raised his head, he saw a red glow from the young man's neck all the way to the tip of his ears.

Zhi Xi: "...you make me feel like a female hooligan."

Green Valley: "—Yes, I'm sorry!"

Unexpectedly and reasonable, the restaurant that Green Valley took her to was not in the downtown area, but beside the exit of an alley.The store is not big, there are not too many customers, the boss is an elderly uncle, who is always smiling and very kind when he sees everyone.

Green Valley Izuku has been coming here often since junior high school, and every time he must order pork chop rice, it is equivalent to a child who was watched by the boss growing up.Therefore, even though he is now a very great No.1 hero in the eyes of the public, the boss still treats him with the attitude of the past, just like looking at his own child.

"I'm really happy. After so many years, I finally saw you looking for a girlfriend."

The uncle came over with two bowls of pork chop rice, put one of them with an extra takoyaki in front of Zhixi, turned his head and smiled at her: "Xiao Dejiu is a very cute boy, you will be happy of."

Let Zhixi feel very embarrassed.

It was still early after dinner, so she offered to go to the movies, so Izuku Midoriya drove her to a nearby movie theater and chose a comedy that had just been released.

Because it was a weekday night, and the location of the cinema was not in a downtown area, there were very few people in the screening hall, no more than ten people in total.They were sitting in the fourth-to-last row, and Izuku Midori looked around before carefully taking off his hat.

Zhi Xi looked at him and giggled: "It's really a big star, Izuku, I feel like I'm in a relationship with a super famous idol."

Her cheeks became hot again by the phrase "falling in love" in her words, Lu Gu pursed her lips, thankfully the light here is not good enough to see it, and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I have caused you trouble..."

How can a girl go out on a date with her boyfriend, and she would be happy to see the other party wrap herself up so that only a pair of eyes are exposed outside.Normally, he worked as a hero, so he wouldn't be blocked after being met by chance, but now with a woman by his side, the nature is completely different.

No matter in which era, the emotional life of public figures is something that everyone talks about. Izuku Midoriya does not want Zhixi to be overly concerned by the media.

"No, I feel very proud," Zhi Xi shook her head, "Because you did everything you told me at that time."

Just at this moment, when the movie started, she stopped talking and turned her head to focus on the screen.

She didn't realize what kind of eyes the young man beside her had after hearing her words.

……

It was around nine o'clock when the show ended, and Zhixi's abdomen was still aching when she got into the car.She has never watched a comedy movie, and she doesn't know what funny jokes have been made recently. The movie looks very good, and even twice, the people in front of her turned to look back because they laughed so happily.

"Izuku, I think this movie is really good. I just laughed so hard that tears came out. Fortunately, I didn't wear makeup today."

The young man who was thinking about something was lost in thought, "You look good with or without makeup."

"...?"

Zhixi was shocked.

Izuku Lvgu came back to his senses and realized what he just said. He blinked his eyes but didn't look at him, and stared at the front glass of the car, wishing he could stare at a hole, "...uh , I, I just..."

——was he joking just now?certainly not.

That is so true that it cannot be truer.

Even though the people around him have completely changed their appearance, in his eyes there is no difference at all.

But now he hesitated, not knowing what to say.

"Then... thank you Chujiu?" Zhixi broke the deadlock in time, she was really surprised by the opponent's rare straight ball just now, and now she joked along with his words: "I also think, I can't get over it Makeup looks good, hee."

"——I, that, I have something," she just finished speaking, and the voice of Lu Gu, who had been thinking about something since just now, suddenly raised her voice, which shocked her.

Green Valley immediately lowered his voice and coughed lightly: "...uh, I have something for you."

"What is it?"

What responded to her was the movement of the young man turning around and picking up the paper bag from the back seat.

When he turned back, he didn't give it to her right away, but hugged her in his arms, and his breathing gradually became cramped at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Zhi Xi visually measured the size of the paper bag, and first ruled out the possibility of a "ring box".

Since it is not, then she can rest assured first.

So she tilted her head and asked softly, "Izuku, is this what you want to give me?"

"..."

"……Um."

The light on the roof was a dim warm yellow light, illuminating the young man's facial bones vaguely and softly. He took a few deep breaths, and finally turned around slowly, as if he had made up his mind.

"This one……"

When he spoke again, his voice began to tremble uncontrollably.

"It's a dress that I... think suits you very well."

Zhixi blinked, a little puzzled why Lvgu looked so shaken at the moment.

She stretched out her hand, took it, and put her hand into the paper bag while saying, "Okay, then I'll accept it, the dress Izuku likes must be beautiful—"

The voice stopped abruptly.

It was indeed a skirt.

Pure white, soft fabric and neat cut.

It's a style she'll love.

Zhi Xi looked at the rope on the hanging tag that was frayed and was about to break, and suddenly felt that she couldn't say what she had been brewing all night no matter what.

There was silence.Some people are holding their breath.

half an hour.

"...Yes, it's a bit old, I know." Izuku Lvgu said incoherently, looking at the person in front of him who hadn't spoken since not long ago, at a loss, "Well, if Zhixi doesn't like it, just Throw it away and—"

"--I love so much."

The black-haired woman raised her head, and there was a faint glimmer of water in her eyes.

"……It would be great."

Already choked up.

……

[I am Izuku Midoriya from Class A of the first year, I like Ikie Yui, can you please date me? ]

[--OK. ]

That summer, he spent all his savings and bought a white dress in the window, full of anticipation, thinking about how the girl he likes would look in it, it must be very good-looking, very good-looking, he thought so firmly.

But who would have expected that for many years to come, that white skirt would stay lonely in a corner of the closet, never seeing the light.

Seven years later, it finally got into the hands of his beloved girl.
