[Comprehensive] Did Zhixi watch pretty boys today?

Maybe it was the package of herbal medicine that helped, when Zhixi got out of bed the next day, her ankle was completely gone. She turned on her phone and found that Hong had sent her a message an hour and a half ago.

He said in the message that he had gone out beforehand and would be back before noon.

Zhi Xi hugged her phone and stayed there for half a minute, feeling a little dazed.

The two said they were going on a trip together, but the entire travel itinerary, board, lodging, and transportation were all planned by one person. In short, Zhixi only needed to bring someone along for this trip, not even a brain.

...Impossible, the sense of guilt is even stronger.

Speaking of which, how much will this trip cost? AA is definitely AA, but Hong has been deliberately blurring the cost of each item, Zhixi can only guess by himself or look at it secretly, and then silently write it down.

She finished her breakfast downstairs, and because she was unfamiliar with the place, she didn't dare to run around, so she obediently went back to her room and turned on the TV.The local channels in Kyoto are not much different from those in other cities. They only report the local daily news, with occasional breaks in national current events.

But today is different, because today is the summer festival, and on the TV screen, a female reporter in a bathrobe is standing in front of an ancient street and reporting the situation on the spot.

Summer Festival... Zhi Xi let out a breath, fell on the bed, and looked at the blue sky outside the window.

It should be fun.

Not long after, Hong knocked on her door. He looked a little anxious, his fair skin was flushed after exercising under the scorching sun, and there was a thin layer of sweat on the tip of his nose.

Zhi Xi was a little taken aback, and hurriedly let him enter the room, pouring water and asking: "Jiao Dong, are you out for work? Is it a matter of the office...?"

He handed over a small guard, "You put this away."

"Huh?" Zhi Xi was puzzled, she looked at the mitsu in her hand, the pattern on it was very delicate, "What is this for?"

"I just asked for it from the King Protector Shrine. It is said that the gods enshrined there can bless the waist and feet of the petitioner." Hong lowered his eyes, "Do your feet still hurt?"

"...It doesn't hurt anymore, it really doesn't hurt at all, thank you Jiao Dong."

Zhixi was really surprised, after all, Hong Jiaodong is not a person who believes in these things, he has always relied on his own efforts to get what he wants, and today he would rush out early in the morning for a guard, because he must be worried about her the extent of the injury.

As she thought about it, she secretly observed his expression, but she only had time to catch a flash of worry, which was quickly replaced by a look of relief.

This person didn't even want to let her know how worried he was, as if he was afraid that she would have some psychological burden.

Zhi Xi sighed silently.

After lunch, the first stop today is the Nishijin Weaving Hall, which is known as a national treasure for the crafts it sells and displays.

Zhixi became nervous when she heard the name of the place reported by the driver. She had learned some traditional knowledge about Japan when she was Hanyuan Zhixi, including Yuzen dyeing and Nishijin weaving. There are also several very gorgeous Nishijin weaving and divination in the dressing room.

Because of this experience, Zhixi probably knows how expensive these clothes are.

The hall is very large and divided into several areas. Since there is no exhibition recently, the staff first took the two to the fabric display area.

Most of the staff here are middle-aged women, with demure posture and elegant manners. When walking in front of them wearing dark furnishing sleeves and making introductions in a soft voice, Zhixi felt a little guilty—at least she had learned some etiquette like trying to catch a duck to the shelves. Yes, but now there is nothing left in seconds.

"Kimono production is complicated, time-consuming and labor-intensive, and aims to outline the most beautiful side of the person who wears it. Every piece of clothing here is carefully made by workers with many years of experience, from the material of the cloth to the color of Yuzen, from Stitch cutting and Nishijin weaving are all striving for perfection." The woman stopped, her voice soft to the bone, "The exhibits on this side can provide rental and sale services, if you two are interested, you can try it."

Zhi Xi followed her movements and looked forward, although she was mentally prepared, she couldn't hold back her breath.

It's really... amazing.

Her gaze glides over the clothes that can be called works of art one by one, each of which exudes a delicate and luxurious atmosphere, which belongs to the existence that can only be seen from a distance and not played with - just like the dressing room of Xianyuan Zhixi It's the same as the ones on the shelves in the store, just looking at it is very shocking, how dare you wear it on your body.

"Which one do you like?"

Hong lowered his head and asked softly in her ear.

Zhi Xi swallowed her saliva, "...they are all pretty good-looking."

She didn't dare to point out one of them specifically, because Hong would definitely buy it without hesitation.

How can this be worth it.

The man took two steps forward, stood in front of a water-red gown, and tilted his head slightly: "Do you like this one?"

It's too formal.

Zhi Xi looked at the red-bottomed crane handle with flowing water patterns, and although she was amazed by its beauty, she quickly shook her head: "It's beautiful, but it seems...not suitable for me."

Hong pointed to another piece that was red, "What about this one?"

Zhi Xi continued to shake her head, "This looks like a wedding dress."

The staff covered their lips and smiled lightly, "These are indeed the second set of dresses for the wedding before the gods. If you two need it, we can provide more customizations."

"If Zhixi gets married, do you want to wear these?"

Boom looked over.

Zhi Xi: "...?"

Zhi Xi: "I'm not getting married."

How dare she answer such a question.

But obviously, Hong asked this question only as a joke, and Zhi Xi's reaction brought a faint smile to his eyes.

When the last two came out of the hall, they both changed into bathrobes.Although the price of summer clothes is lower in comparison, they are still expensive, and Yumoto Eda didn't intend to accept any of them, but he couldn't bear the bang, "Today is the summer festival, everyone will wear yukatas."

What she didn't quite understand was why the staff came over to measure and record her body data with a tape measure when she was just trying on a few clothes.

Is the service so meticulous?

The sky is not yet dark, the booths of the temple fair have been set up one after another, and there are more and more pedestrians on the street. Indeed, as Hong said, there are many girls dressed up and walking together in various bathrobes. He said, laughing lightly from time to time.

"Hey, the girls are so cute, so nice." Zhi Xi looked over, and then slowly moved to the front of the road. From time to time, there were vendors shouting from both sides of the road, and the tangy aroma of roasted food.She enjoyed the atmosphere very much. Although it was a bit crowded, it was very "popular", which made people feel alive and active.

Hong walked on the outside, and had been quietly protecting her from being bumped by passers-by. Hearing this, he raised his brows slightly: "Is the boy okay?"

"... Jiao Dong, you can't even eat this vinegar."

Zhi Xi felt disbelief, and deliberately joked: "Why don't you think about it, how jealous those cute girls are to me? I saw several of those who just passed by secretly looking at you."

Hong Jiaodong looked indifferent: "Really, I didn't see it."

But obviously, he was in a good mood, he pulled Zhi Xi to a stop, bought her a stick of apple candy, and took the small handbag she was dangling in her hand.

The young man was wearing a blue-and-black bathrobe, and was carrying such a handbag embroidered with red plum blossoms on a white background for a month, which was quite nondescript.But Hong Jiaodong did it very naturally, and Zhixi also noticed that there were many couples around, and the man consciously helped his girlfriend carry the handbag, so it was not awkward for him to do so.

He stared at her fixedly.

The brunette's figure was a little thin, and he always felt that she should eat more.The moon-white bathrobe on her suits her complexion well, but she is already very white.The woman took small bites of the apple candy, and her lips were inadvertently stained with a little bit of candy color, which was rosy and glowing with moisture.

Passers-by were attracted by her appearance and couldn't help but take a second look.

The woman didn't notice it, and she was still looking around. It was her first time participating in the summer festival, and she was very novel and excited since just now.

Hong Jiao's eyes darkened slightly.

When passing by a stall selling masks, he picked out a cat face mask and put it on her face.

Zhi Xi was caught off guard: "...Frozen?"

"Put it on, it's cute."

"? Okay." Zhi Xi didn't think much about it. She also thought the masks of this store were very interesting, but soon, her attention was attracted by the stall beside it. It was a goldfish fishing stall. After paying You can catch three times.

Seeing that she was so eager to try, he paid the money, took the three paper nets handed over by the boss, and gave one to her: "Go get it."

"Well! You look good!"

Zhi Xi grabbed a handful of sleeves, squatted down slowly, stretched the paper net into the water, and aimed at a small red and white goldfish——

broken.

Zhi Xi: "..."

boom:"……"

Zhi Xi: "Don't laugh! It's you!"

She pretended to be angry, stood up and stepped aside, pushed up the mask, and widened her eyes to see the scorching battle situation.

As a result, as soon as he stretched the paper net into the water, it broke.

Zhi Xi: "..."

Zhi Xi: "It's because the paper net is too broken! I understand."

Skillfully hold respect.

There was only one chance left, so she decided to let Hong come, so if he didn't catch one, then his responsibility would be even greater - anyway, Mr. Zhi won't take the blame.

For a moment, she felt a slight chill coming from her side.

Hong bent down and successfully fished out the little red and white goldfish.

The boss put it in a plastic bag filled with water with a smile, and also gave a small black and white goldfish, "It might be lonely if you only have one." Friends are cute."

——Come, come, this old-fashioned plot of walking on the street and being recognized and misunderstood.Zhi Xi decided to explain it anyway, after all, Hong Jiao Dong is now a well-known public figure.

"Um,"

The person next to her answered for her first. He took the plastic bag, glanced at her, and said with a smile in his voice, "It's very cute."

"..."

Zhi Xi opened her mouth and swallowed the words again.

Forget it, let's just misunderstand, after all, he said so, if she explained again, it would probably be embarrassing.

But still very unconvinced, taking advantage of people not paying attention, he lightly pinched his waist.

"You used your personality just now, didn't you?" She raised her head, her eyes widened and she asked in a low voice.

Hong avoided her gaze, "...I reinforced the paper net with ice."

"You little rascal."

After Zhi Xi finished speaking, she laughed.

Hero, frozen.

In some small things, it is really childish.

The last ray of sunlight at the edge of the day washes away the lead, and the real night falls.At this time, people were coming and going on the main street, which can be called shoulder-to-shoulder, if it wasn't because of being held by Hong, maybe Zhixi would have separated from him.

I don't know why, obviously "holding hands" is also a very intimate act, but once the partner is Hong Jiaodong, Zhixi feels...it's nothing.

She attributes this to the fact that the two have slept together before (?

So nothing to fuss about.

And judging by Hong's expression, he seemed to be focusing on the stalls on both sides of the road, stopping from time to time to ask her if she wanted to eat this or that. Along the way, Zhixi's stomach was full of takoyaki, taiyaki, cotton candy, and fried noodles. Fill it up, conservatively estimate that you will gain five catties when you go back today.

There was commotion in the crowd, and immediately after that, the first firework bloomed on the dark blue sky, followed by the second and third... The fireworks were warm and gorgeous, so beautiful in the night sky that people couldn't take their eyes off them.

"Would you like to watch the fireworks?"

Amidst the commotion, a booming sound came from Zhi Xi's ears.

"Think about it," she had to raise her voice a little because it was too noisy, "wouldn't it be better to go ahead and have a look? It feels crowded here."

"follow me."

After Hong finished speaking, he took Zhixi's hand and exerted some strength. They shuttled through the crowded crowd. Zhixi saw many strange faces on both sides moving back. Gradually, they made the noise of the crowd left behind.

Hong Jiaodong led her to a sparsely populated hillside.At this time, the fireworks in the sky still hadn't set, and because of the height, Zhixi even felt that those beautiful and prosperous flowers were closer to her, as if she could pick them off with her hand.

"It's much quieter here."

Zhi Xi sat on the bench, shaking her calves not very gracefully, and said in the gap between the fireworks, "Although I like such a lively scene very much, but if it is too noisy, I will be a little tired."

"Ah."

Hong Jiaodong doesn't like noisy environments, as she said, it will make people tired easily.

But if you are alone, you will feel lonely.

As for the two of them, it was just right.

he thinks.

This idea is not unreasonable. On the contrary, it is the most real feeling in his heart. During the time when she first appeared, Hong did feel noisy, but after getting used to it, the girl's voice became a part of his life. Indispensable existence, even in most cases, she is the only one who speaks, and he hardly even responds.

But he is so dependent.

So much so that after the girl disappeared, it was difficult for him to adapt to that silence for a long time.

When people are immature, they often have some enthusiasm and childish thoughts or desires. People collectively call this youthful and frivolous—of course, this is a nicer way of saying it, and a more direct way of saying it is youth and ignorance.

When Hong Jiaodong was "young and ignorant", he had some ideas that seemed illusory and ridiculous.

He wanted to take her to see The Crowd.

He wanted to take her to go shopping in the busy traffic.

He wanted to take her to smell the colorful flowers.

He wanted to take her to enjoy the fireworks in the sky.

But now, he has done all these things.

The people around him let out a long breath and sighed softly: "The fireworks are so beautiful."

"Um,"

Hong turned his head to the side, fixedly staring at her side face, with flickering fireworks falling in his strange eyes.

Zhi Xi noticed the gaze from the side.

Two seconds later, she turned her head and met his eyes directly.

What a pair of clean eyes, so clean that nothing can be hidden.

She had heard it said before that she couldn't hide her liking for someone, even if she tried her best to hide it, those things would come out of her eyes.

What's more, Hong Jiaodong never thought of hiding.

In front of him, he was so open and frank from the beginning to the end, without any cover up.

The last firework fell.

She heard him continue,

"It's the same as the night tonight."

At that moment, the surroundings became very quiet, Mingyu seemed to have fallen asleep, and even the gentle evening breeze stopped here.

And for the first time, she heard the sound of her heart beating wildly from her left chest.
