But it seemed that because the two of them were so engrossed in the conversation just now, Nanako forgot that she was still wearing a bath towel.
"Eh..."
The moment he stepped forward, the bath towel on his body slipped off.
The girl with her back to Mayu Nakano, her water-stained feet just stepped on the towel, and her whole body fell forward.
Nakano Mayu saw the smooth-mouthed Guo Bei in his sight. He looked startled and was about to step forward to help him.
But the moment the girl lost her balance, she swayed slightly and regained her footing.
At the same time, he quickly grabbed the half-fallen bath towel with his backhand...
I almost forgot that Nanako is also a master, so this bloody scene of falling would never happen...
He stopped and turned his head subconsciously.
But the picture I just saw is deeply imprinted in my mind...
"Koukou you...did you see it?"
The girl put the towel back around her back, turned her head half-way and asked.
His voice was low, with a hint of embarrassment and a hint of ferocity.
"what did you see?"
Nakano Mayu scratched his head and asked with a confused look on his face. Because his nostrils were blocked, his voice sounded a bit honest.
"No...nothing..."
After Nanako finished speaking, she walked upstairs without looking back, but this time her steps were obviously much slower.
"call..."
Seeing the girl's figure disappearing into the stairwell, he breathed out a soft breath.
Sometimes learning how to act crazy and act stupid is also an essential way for a man to behave...
He pulled out two paper balls soaked red with nosebleeds from his nostrils, looked at the trash can not far away, assumed a shooting posture, and threw the paper balls in one by one.
Not long after throwing out the trash, Nanako, who had changed into a light green nightgown, came back with her mobile phone.
The page opened on the screen displays a chat box that is both familiar and unfamiliar.
That was the line his late mother used to use.
"Koukou, you can see for yourself..."
Nakano Mayu raised his eyebrows slightly, took the phone and flipped through it.
The chat took place two or three years ago, and the conversation between mother and daughter was as straightforward as he imagined.
In addition to various daily conversations, there are topics about him.
Although the message sent by his mother was very reserved, he could still tell that it was because he wanted to see his stepson inherit the Nakano family business.
On the Neon side, they are not opposed to the combination of stepson and daughter. It would be better to say that this kind of relationship is more like a close relationship...
Between the lines, her mother told Nanako to be prepared, and she would discuss it with her when the two of them reached the age of marriage.
But she was bluntly rejected time and time again by Nanako, who hated her very much at the time.
Looking at the chat history, Nakano Mayu's eyes gradually became moist.
My mother's gentle smile seemed to appear in front of me.
After reading most of the records, he silently took out three sticks of incense from under the TV cabinet and walked towards the study room where his parents' memorial tablets were placed.
Seeing that he was silent, Nanako adjusted her nightgown and followed him obediently.
There was a soft 'click' sound, and the study door was pushed open by him, and a strong smell of incense hit his face.
He sniffed and glanced towards his parents' memorial tablets.
He rarely comes in here, and Nanako spends most of his time cleaning.
But it's not that he doesn't miss old feelings...
It's because he has a soft personality in some aspects and is easily moved by the situation.
Every time after paying homage to my parents, I feel depressed for a while.
He lit three sticks of incense with a lighter and inserted them neatly into the small incense burner in front of the tomb. Looking at the gentle smiles of his parents in the photo of the tomb, he was speechless for a moment.
Although the information in the line shocked him a little, after thinking about it carefully, he seemed to understand it.
For his most precious biological daughter, he definitely hopes to entrust her to the most trustworthy man.
It seems like you have to take on this responsibility, right?
This nurturing grace must be repaid...
And I am very fond of Nanako...
After a while, he walked out of the study, closed the door gently, and looked at the girl beside him who had been following him obediently, not knowing what to say.
"rest early..."
"Well, Nini, you should go to bed early..."
After a moment of silence, he patted his sister's little head and said.
After saying that, he walked directly to the bathroom. After closing the bathroom door, he took off his clothes on the hangers as usual and waited for Nanako to wash them together every day.
In the bathroom with a faint citrus aroma, Nakano Mayu stepped into the bathtub and at the same time sunk his head under the water.
Since this kind of thing is what parents expect...
The young man held his chin, thoughtfully.
The originally calm water surface also rippled slightly with the boy's movements, just like the lake in his heart...
...
Early the next morning.
Nakano Mayu got up on time for morning exercises as usual.
Recently, due to my sister's health, I have temporarily stopped my morning exercise routine, and he is the only one left in the morning.
"Wow--"
The wooden knife cut through the air, causing a sharp sound.
He also stopped his morning exercise and walked into the living room holding a bamboo knife.
"Nini, go and take a shower and eat..."
Nanako, who was wearing an apron, had neatly placed the breakfast for two on the table. Judging from the exquisiteness of the breakfast, it must have taken the girl a lot of thought.
When Mayu Nakano came back, the girl picked up the towel she had prepared for wiping her face and handed it to Mayu Nakano.
Nakano Mayu took the towel that exuded the scent of his sister and wiped the sweat on his face.
"I'm so lucky to have a virtuous sister..."
He has never been stingy in praising those around him.
"Idiot Nini, so early in the morning..."
But unexpectedly, the girl suddenly rolled her eyes at him with some annoyance, biting her lower lip lightly and looking a little embarrassed.
After saying that, he took off his apron and walked to the bathroom.
"Um?"
Nakano Mayu rubbed his head in confusion.
I feel like after what happened last night, the relationship between the two siblings seems to be deteriorating...
Or is this just his illusion?
Unable to figure out what his sister was thinking, he could only bury his head and start cooking.
After he finished eating, Nanako also took their schoolbags downstairs.
"Nini, don't you have to be on duty today? Go to school early..."
"Eh? If you didn't remind me, I almost forgot..."
Nakano Mayu took his schoolbag and walked towards the entrance.
"By the way, Nini, I've helped you take out the pair of fat pants in your pants pocket and wash them. Do you want to take them to school with you and give them back to others?"
"No, that pair belongs to Mizuki. I can't return it if I take it there. I'll just leave it at home..." He subconsciously replied while putting on his shoes.
But mid-sentence, he suddenly reacted, his pupils shrunk slightly, and at the same time, a drop of cold sweat slowly slipped from his forehead...
He was sitting on the porch putting on his shoes when he suddenly felt a faint murderous aura coming from behind.
"Nini, why is Mizuki's fat chicken in your pocket? Can you please explain it a little bit?"
