[Comprehensive] Escape from shame is useless

At 5 pm the next day, Akashi returned home early after dealing with all the school affairs.Then it was unexpectedly discovered that his father Zhengchen was already waiting in the study room ahead of him, and even the dinner had been arranged properly.

He knew in his heart that his father definitely didn't come back early because he was free today, as can be seen from the documents he was still flipping through until now.Not only is he not idle at all, but he also has a lot of things on his hands.But even so, he came back.

Only for the Kuroki couple who will visit at 6 o'clock.

Seiomi Akashi, who never arrives so early even for business meetings, prepared more than an hour earlier for the visit of his son's friend's parents. It didn't sound funny at all.

I have never participated in a family gathering, and I have never appeared in cultural festivals or sports conferences. The only time I have visited the Teiko Festival in so many years is because I know that Jasmine will also perform on stage, so I specially set aside an afternoon to accompany Mr. Kazama there.

He never seemed to hide his special treatment for Jasmine, and he didn't worry about whether his own son would have any undue emotions towards his eccentricity.I will do my own thing and be confident.

Fortunately, he really didn't have the slightest extravagant expectations for his father. His father was willing to spoil Jasmine, even if he didn't know the reason, he would agree with it a hundred times.After all, this means that her father should also favor her when it comes to her.

To be honest, that fact relieved him.If there is anyone in this world that he is not sure he can defeat, it can only be Akashi Seishomi.His father knows everything about him, but he lacks sufficient knowledge of him. Such an unequal father-son relationship puts him in a disadvantageous state where he cannot control the direction of the conversation when talking with his father.

He wasn't sure about convincing his father, but his father would compromise for Jasmine's sake.As long as she speaks, he will be shaken.

So his focus today is just to convince her parents.

The biggest threat has been eliminated by her, if he can't deal with the rest, he really has no right to say anything and take responsibility.

"Twinkle, twinkle, little star. How I wonder what you are."

Pushing open the door of the piano room on the second floor, she found that Jasmine was also concentrating on playing the piano and singing, and she didn't even notice that he came in.The golden sunset cast a layer of warmth on the room, just looking at her back covered by the soft light, I felt that everything that was worrying just now was no longer important.

"Up above the world so high. Like adiamond in the sky."

Compared with her violin, her piano skills are really bad.One hand pressed down hard, regardless of severity, regardless of fingering, without the chord matching of the left hand.It seems that as long as the pitch of the main melody is correct and the rhythm is correct, everything will be fine.Monotonous, rigid, and without aesthetic feeling, it still makes people feel the pure happiness from the bottom of their hearts.

Because when she was immersed in the world of music, her smile was so beautiful, so touching, and when she saw it, she unconsciously wanted to twitch the corners of her mouth.

"Twinkle, twinkle, little—ah."

Jasmine was also playing well at first, but suddenly a hand stretched out from behind and hovered over the keyboard, which startled her.Feeling the familiar breath enveloping herself, she angrily patted the hand on her waist that climbed up naturally.

"Don't scare me."

Akashi put his chin on her shoulder again, and whispered in her ear, "Continue, I will accompany you."

She blinked, realized what he meant, and happily bounced again.

"Twinkle, twinkle, little star. How I wonder what you are."

His hands dance on the piano just like a real pianist, pressing keys, raising hands, moving, every movement has a wonderful rhythm and beauty.The white and soft fingers, the elegant arc when the back of the hand is arched, the light that flows from the cracks of the fingers when the fingertips are flying, is fragmentary, mottled but beautiful.

"Up above the world so high. Like adiamondinthesky..."

The two different melodies merged together, and even her piano sound became softer, and the movements of her right hand were no longer so rigid.When the song was getting better, she suddenly stopped.After pressing two more notes, Akashi also stopped, and asked:

"Why did it stop?"

"The latter one, I don't know how to play..." The next part is about to enter the variation, which is too advanced for her piano skills, and she has never studied it specially, so she can't play it.

He heard this and laughed out loud.

"Don't laugh, it's just "Little Star Variations", I can still play the violin!" There is a specialization in art, so it's no big deal if you don't know the piano!

"You can continue to play "twinkletwinklelittlestar"." In this way, the first few bars have been repeated.

"Won't it be boring? It's a repetitive melody all the time, isn't the variation more interesting?" She really likes the latter part, but it's a pity that she really doesn't know how to play the piano, and she doesn't want to learn it at all.It is very rare for her to be able to play the main melody with one hand like today.

"Ah, then Zhengjun, you can finish playing for me! I want to hear it!"

"But I don't want to play now." He turned his head and whispered into her ear, "I want to hear you sing."

Her small ears were visibly red with the naked eye, and the thin skin could see tender blood vessels and fluff under the sunlight, which made him want to bite again.

"But I can't sing very well..." There is nothing particularly noteworthy about her singing voice. It has no skill or characteristics, and it can only be barely out of tune. Compared with the mournful and bright piano voice in her hand, it is not at all. an order of magnitude.In such a strong contrast, it would be ashamed to just speak.Singing today was just on a whim, if she wasn't alone, she wouldn't have sung.

"If you want to listen to the music, I'll just play the piano for you."

As she said that, she wanted to stand up and go to pick up the piano, but Akashi struggled twice and didn't let go. He expressed his refusal with actions.

"You are a strong man!"

He held Jasmine's hand that was about to beat him, lowered his head and kissed her fingertips, raised his eyes to look at her in the warm orange twilight, and repeated it gently but unquestionably.

"Sing it to me, Jasmine too."

Has Zhengjun become more and more flirtatious lately?Or is it that he has always been good at it, but he just didn't use it before?

Her resistance has not increased year-on-year. If this continues, won't she be ridden by him all the time?

No, you must gain experience as soon as possible!

Hmph, she won't lose.

Jasmine also aggressively forked the steak on the plate, and chewed it with gnashed teeth.

"Jasmine too, her face is covered with oil."

Yue Hao picked up a napkin, and obediently brought her face closer, asking her mother to wipe her face clean.

"Hey, thank you mom."

"What did you do today?"

"Ah, by the way, I saw two cats fighting in the park today. It was interesting. Let me tell you..."

The mother and daughter chatted intimately while eating, and occasionally mentioned a few words to the people next to them, which made people smile knowingly.From the eyes of other people at the dinner table, it was an uncommon sight.It's just that thinking about how Jasmine also ran away from home because of a huge disagreement with her parents, she felt a sense of absurd dislocation.

With such a fierce contradiction, why can she still smile so innocently as if nothing happened?Have you figured it out?Did you understand their painstaking efforts, and decided to go home with them obediently after eating, and then listen to the doctor's orders to treat the illness?

"In short, I won't go to the hospital. If you still think about it, I won't go back. If you are still unwilling to give up, you should sever the parent-child relationship. "

What Jasmine said categorically also formed an extremely sharp contrast with the soft and gentle smile on her face at this time, making their shallow extravagant expectations just now extremely ironic.Before Yue Hao could say anything, she was choked by her decisive attitude.

In her tone, she couldn't even hear the feeling of anger yesterday, this strange calmness and indifference combined with the eager conversation with her mother just now, it seemed as if she was a different person.

"You... know what you're talking about?"

"I know, it's literally."

She doesn't seem to care at all.

She didn't care whether her actions would make her parents sad, and she didn't even notice that their relationship was tense because of this disagreement.

Her mind seemed to clearly distinguish between "not going to the hospital" and "relationship with her parents". Except for this matter, she still loved them as before.You can chat with them, you can communicate with them harmoniously, you can laugh and make trouble, as if nothing happened.

But once the topic of "going to the hospital" was touched, she became cold and cruel, as if none of their words could touch her heart, and she was as indifferent as if she was facing a stranger.No, she never did that to strangers either.In this matter, they were enemies to her.

I like you very much.I don't want you anymore.

Not causation, but juxtaposition.

How can one person have such two opposite emotions at the same time?

There was never a moment when she could clearly feel her abnormality like now. Jasmine was also sick, she was really sick.It's just that the topic is different, but she can seamlessly switch between two completely different, even opposing emotions. She can really turn her face faster than flipping a book, and she is completely unaware of this.

For Jasmine, which side is the real her?

Is it her who is gentle and amiable, or this...she who is so indifferent that she wants to sever the parent-child relationship?

To Jasmine, are they really—

[She has only one spiritual fulcrum, which not only means that this kind of thing is far more important to her than others, but also means that everything else is meaningless. 】

In this contrast, Dr. Midorima's words reappeared in his mind.

Are all the tenderness, kindness, and feelings she showed false?

"Jasmine too, you can't talk to your parents like this."

"Okay!" She answered Zhengjun's words crisply, bowed to her parents, and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, I was actually joking just now."

As soon as the words fell, the expressions of Yue Hao and Ya Ren suddenly became more ugly.

After what happened just now, they could no longer link Jasmine's current behavior with her true intentions.joke?The smiling daughter in front of them told them that the daughter who talked about severing parent-child relationship just now was joking?

Their daughter, their Jasmine seldom made jokes, let alone make such nasty jokes regardless of their moods!

"Ah, they really don't believe it." She held her chin in distress, and turned to the people around her, "I said Zhengjun, you know I'm not good at lying, it's so difficult."

She was so straightforward that she didn't bother to cover up her mistakes, she didn't mind her lies being exposed at all, and she didn't even keep her eyes on them for a second, just staring at the people around her.

"Then go and play, just leave it to me." In fact, he didn't expect that Jasmine's temperament would suddenly change when facing her parents, but he couldn't show any wavering, otherwise today's test Absolutely can't make it through.

"Then let me bake a cake, and we'll eat it together after you finish talking."

"Wait for Jasmine to—"

She stood up as if no one else was there, ignored her mother's call, smiled at Akashi, and left the reception room briskly.Yue Hao fell back on the sofa in shock, and couldn't believe that it was her lovely daughter whom she had loved for so many years.

"how so……"

Deathly silence.

Faced with the chilling scene just now, no one can easily accept this reality.

In the end, the calm Akashi Masomi was the first to speak, and after comforting them a little, he looked at his son.

"You two, before discussing Jasmine's condition, there is one more thing I need to tell you, Seijuro."

The red-haired boy stood up from his chair.

On the other side, Jasmine, who had left the reception room and was about to go to the kitchen, unexpectedly welcomed a new guest at the entrance.

"Ah, Yuno!" pounced, "I miss you so much~"

"You little heartless person, you just talk about it, and you don't know how to call me for a few days." Yuno caught her and turned around, pinching her little nose lovingly.

"Hey hey." She hugged her friend's arm coquettishly, "Did Yuno come to see me? Just right, I'm going to bake a cake, do you want to come together?"

"No, just let me eat something ready-made." She handed the coat and scarf to the maid, and touched the top of Jasmine's hair, "I have other things."

Following her gaze, Jasmine also looked towards the reception room.She blinked innocently, tilted her head and asked:

"Yuno, where are you from?"

"Do you still need to ask?" As if completely unaware of the icy aura of this question, Yuno kissed Jasmine on the cheek and said naturally, "I will always stand by your side, your wish is Where my spear is headed, my Highness the Princess."

"I told you, don't call me that..." What a shame!

"I want matcha flavored cake!"

"Got it!"

Jasmine also didn't know what they talked about in the reception room. She only knew that when she finished the matcha cake, this long meeting finally came to an end.as well as--

Zhengjun won.

"Yeah, Jasmine, are you going back to school tomorrow, or going to buy a piano with me?" When Yuelong asked this question with a smile, Jasmine threw herself into her arms happily.

"Go to class! How about going to buy pianos on Saturday the day after tomorrow?"

"Okay, then I'll pick you up from Yuno on Saturday."

"Thank you, I like my mother the most!"

Hearing this familiar sentence, Yuelong smiled wryly uncontrollably.

What to do, she has no choice, she can no longer believe her words like before.

"Seijuro, remember what you promised us, don't forget." Masato said with a serious expression.

"Yes, I won't forget."

In this unexplained conversation, the problem that had troubled her for two whole days was finally resolved.

It was only because Yuno was so excited about the arrival that Jasmine realized that she forgot to confess to Zheng Jun again when she returned to Kanagawa.

"Haha... how difficult the future is~"

The author has something to say: Mental illness is what makes people feel chills down the spine and panic.But don't worry, everyone, Jasmine's feelings are real.

Why does Akashi Seitomo care so much about this meeting?Because for Ah Zheng, this is "a conversation that decides the future", and Jasmine's parents must know about the pillar, and ask them to "give Jasmine to him too".If it weren't for the seriousness of the conversation, it would almost be an engagement party ==

Tomorrow is a new year, I may not update the article, you don't have to wait =3=

Oh, by the way, what I said about solving the problem is not solving it in this way, it is a real solution.

So a few more chapters are needed to write about the agreement between Ah Zheng and Jasmine's parents.
