Chapter 289: Warm and carefree, Qiansui rubbed into his arms~
He held his head in his hands and looked up at the ceiling again and again.

My brain is active, but I don't know what to think.

Fujii Itsuki still remembers this feeling and has never forgotten it.

That was how I felt when I first arrived in Tokyo.

How about inviting Muzi out for dinner?

Or should I take Xinchun and the others out for some fun?
But after quitting his job, the money he saved was used to support the welfare home and buy gifts for everyone, which was only enough to last for a year or two.

Or should I go to the Matsumae family in advance and follow their arrangements?

There are many choices, but Fujii Itsuki feels like he lacks the motivation to implement them.

Being a teacher in Jubei can be tiring sometimes, but it’s also quite fulfilling.

Students would come to him and ask questions.

Occasionally, when they encounter some family conflicts or quarrels between friends, he can help resolve them.

The most important thing is the look in everyone's eyes when they are looking at you during class/training.

In a class, it seems that I am the only backbone.

wrong.

I have already resigned, so why do I still think about these things?
Fujii Itsuki shook his head and closed his eyes again.

After a few minutes, he still felt a little uneasy. He took out his phone to check something, but his eyes were suddenly fixed on the date displayed in the upper left corner.
At this time, there was a knock on the bedroom door. After Fujii Itsuki said "Come in", Yang Kui Chitose poked her head into the room with a smile and stood beside his bed with her hands behind her back.

"Brother Tree~~"

"Hmm? Chitose, didn't you go back to help during the holidays?"

Fujii Itsuki had already seen the food she hid behind her hand, and couldn't help feeling a little happy.

"Who told Jiuhuayue to go take pictures? Xinchun went back home again~ Qiansui felt that Brother Shu would be very bored at home these two days, and didn't want you and Sister Muzi to go out drinking together again, so of course she came back to visit Brother Shu! Here~ This is the sushi I just made for Brother Shu~"

Fujii Itsuki sat cross-legged on the bed, took the sushi box handed to him by Chitose, placed it beside the bed and opened it. It was filled with exquisite handmade food.

Look up at her again.

There were a few spots of snowflakes from outside on Qiansui's short hair and the red rope tied on the side.

Yang Kui Chitose sat down next to him, smiled, and leaned her head on his shoulder.

The moment she came closer, Fujii Itsuki felt his heart instantly calm down.

Then, when Fujii Itsuki was eating sushi, she came up to him and fed him some sushi, then she snuggled into his arms.

Fujii Itsuki only felt the warmth in his arms and the scent of shower gel emanating from the girl's hair and neck.

"Brother Tree is still the same."

"what?"

"Can't stand loneliness." Yang Kui Qiansui dug into his heart, and then leaned her back against his chest, "Brother Shu used to be like this when he was alone, with nothing to do and not knowing what to do, always looking unhappy."

Fujii Itsuki took the initiative to hug her and put his head on her petite shoulders.

"So what does Chitose think of Brother Shu in this state?"

"Like a little kid."

"Is it?"

"He's still a little kid with 'Come on' and pay attention to me written all over his face!"

A soothing smile appeared on Fujii Itsuki's face, and his hand covered the girl's slender little hand.

Her body temperature was transmitted through the lines on her palms, thin and soft. There was also an indulgence that did not resist herself at all and was full of love and fondness.

"I kind of understand you, Chitose."

"Brother Shu, when you were not with Chitose?"

"Before, I only knew that you would be sad when I was not by your side, and I felt a little sad because of it, but now I can empathize with you. Now I will think, when I left you, how reluctant you were?

"When I left you, how much did you miss me?

"When I left you, where did the reliance you had on me since childhood go?

“You just had to endure it at that time, Chitose, right?

"You wiped away your tears again and again, waiting day after day. You thought your brother tree would come back to see you, remember you, and would never forget you. Then you kept waiting at home, waiting until you really heard the news that I was back, and then you would rush over to greet me excitedly without caring about anything else."

"Brother Shu is so annoying." Yang Kui Chitose pouted slightly.

"Is it."

"You're saying these words to Chitose now."

"I still owe you an apology, Chitose, right? I'm sorry, Chitose, that your brother Shu didn't respond 100% to your feelings for me."

"Brother Tree"

"Ok?"

"In fact, when I knew that Brother Shu chose to accept Jiuhuayue, Qiansui really didn't know what to do. Qiansui felt that he was abandoned and not loved. Brother Shu should know what you mean to Qiansui. Qiansui wanted to escape at that time, no matter where, the farther the better.
"But when Qiansui turned around, he seemed to see his father and mother waiting for him at home.
“What would they do if I ran away?
"Will it be that when everyone has dinner together in the evening, there will only be the two of them and Brother Yuehui's portrait?
"They have taken care of Chitose for so many years and spent so much money on her medical treatment. My father also taught me his best skills. When Chitose thought of this, she felt that she couldn't run away, she couldn't run away.
"So, Brother Shu, there is no need to apologize to Qiansui. Qiansui was also during the time when Brother Shu was away--

"Ouch! Brother Shu, what are you doing?"

Fujii Itsuki gave him a slap on the head, and Yang Kui Chitose covered his head with his hands, feeling the pain.

He said seriously:

"You are different from me."

"What's the difference? Aren't we no longer the only ones in each other's hearts? At first, Qiansui felt that she had betrayed Brother Shu. But now she feels a sense of gratitude from other people."

"Chitose, you and Mr. Nagano are family, how can you confuse this with mine?"

"Then does that mean there is no family relationship between me and Brother Shu?" Yang Kui Chitose puffed up her cheeks.

Fujii Itsuki was suddenly speechless.

He looked up at the ceiling, and it seemed that what Chitose said was true.

". Mainly because the relationship between us is very complicated."

"Brother Shu, stop making excuses! The truth is that simple. Chitose actually failed you, Brother Shu, so Brother Shu, please stop apologizing to me for what happened to Jiuhua and the others!"

The girl said so.

How could Fujii Itsuki take it seriously?

He also knew that Qiansui was trying to find a way out so that he could feel more comfortable with the condemnation in his heart.

"Hey! Brother Shu!"

Fujii Itsuki took the initiative to pick up the girl, held her on his legs and sat her down, then when she wasn't paying attention, he kissed her on the cheek.

She was indeed very tender. After kissing her, I was still shy like before.

".Brother Shu is really something."

"Chitose is so cute."

"Humph, Brother Shu only knows how to praise me for this. He must be praising me so much all of a sudden to please Qiansui, right?"

"Chitose is so beautiful."

"Humph, I won't be fooled."

She said she wouldn't be fooled, but she still happily snuggled into his arms.

The more she drilled, the tighter it got, and the happier she became. She hugged his shoulders with both hands, then leaned her back against him, rubbing her neck against his cheek, feeling extremely happy.

At this time, Fujii Itsuki was more doting on Chitose.

But as she got closer and closer to Qiansui, she suddenly took her hand and placed it under her clothes, on her belly.

Fujii Itsuki didn't think too much about it, but after a while, Chitose took his hand again.

"What do you want to do?"

Yang Kui Chitose was so embarrassed, "Brother Shu knew about it." Fujii Shu thought Chitose was very funny at this time, just like a spoiled child.

But compared to little kids who like to act coquettishly on purpose, Chitose was really acting coquettishly at this time.

"Sometimes I really think you are almost the same as Xiaoyue."

"I'm not like her!"

"What's different? Not all are good—"

"Don't tell me!"

"H's child."

"Ugh. Hate it!"

Once you are stuck, there is no escape.

This is a fact that Fujii Itsuki feels he should understand.

He was a little confused later, but now he is sober.

Fujii Itsuki looked back at Chitose, who was lying on her bed with her shoulders exposed and covered in a quilt, trying to sleep, and urged her to wake up.

"Brother Tree, what are you doing? I want to sleep."

"You're going to sleep after you're done? I'm not as tired as you."

Yang Kui Chitose was still lying there, her voice a little drowsy, "Brother Shu, if you want to talk about anything, just tell Chitose directly. Chitose is listening."

"Then don't fall asleep suddenly. I want to ask you, Chitose, about your future. You will definitely help Mr. Nagano inherit his hot spring shop in the future, right?"

"Hmm~"

"I will most likely go to the Matsumae family in the future."

Yang Kui Chitose seemed to realize something and suddenly stood up, "So, in this case, Brother Shu and I will see each other less often in the future?!"

“It is very likely so”

"No."

"Also, I think I should talk to Mr. Nagano about the matter with Jiuhuayue Songqian Xinchun and Muzi."

Yang Kui Chitose crossed her arms and made a big X, "No, no! Father will kill you, Brother Shu, with a knife!"

"Then we can't keep it secret."

"You can't hide it, but you can't just say it all of a sudden. I think we should proceed step by step."

"Right."

At this time, the doorbell rang.

Fujii Itsuki thought it was Muzi coming or Jiuhua Yuexinchun coming back, but when he opened the door, he saw it was the dean.

The director had a head full of snowflakes, a scarf around her neck, and some vegetables and fruits in her hands.

"Dean, why are you here?"

"Come and see you."

Fujii Itsuki quickly invited her into the house.

But when the dean walked in, he suddenly froze in place.

Fujii Itsuki looked back in the direction of her gaze, and saw that the girl, Yang Kui Chitose, actually ran out barefoot with only a quilt wrapped around her!
Her shoulders were bare, her face was rosy, and her hair was a little messy.

The way she was hugging the quilt made it obvious that she was not wearing any clothes.

Dean Huadai was shocked, "What were you two doing in the room?"

"Chitose just finished a shower, just finished a shower." Fujii Itsuki explained quickly.

Yang Kui Chitose was slow to react, but then immediately nodded to the dean and hurriedly agreed.

Dean Hanashiro just looked at Fujii Itsuki strangely, and Yang Kui Chitose immediately ran back to her room in shame.

"I'll go get you some tea, Dean."

"Um"

The atmosphere became a little awkward afterwards.

Fujii Itsuki was a bit like a child who had made a mistake, sitting upright and watching the dean sitting on the sofa and drinking tea.

"I heard from Xiaoyue that you want to resign?"

"."

"what happened?"

"Dean, this is just a personal reason."

Dean Huadai knew as soon as he heard it that he didn't really want to tell the reason.

As for whether she didn't want to or didn't dare, Dean Hanashiro knew the general idea when she saw Chitose Yangkui coming out of the house a little later, dressed in her clothes, with a blush on her face.

What should she do at this time?
Criticize the kid Ashu?
She raised the child, how could she not know what kind of person he is?

But this.
Dean Hanashiro finally figured out why Fujii Itsuki suddenly chose to resign.

“People grow up and change, but I always believe that some fundamental things cannot change.”

".Dean, you are right in teaching me this."

"There are some things I think it's better not to listen to. I'm afraid my heart can't bear it. But a good child is still a good child after all. In many cases, you still have to know when to stop, right?"

At this time, Fujii Itsuki and Yang Kui Chitose both looked like children being scolded by their parents.

"Does Nagano know about this?"

Yang Kui Chitose took the initiative to explain, a little scared, "Father still knows, but he doesn't know that much."

Dean Huadai did not dwell on this matter for too long. She took the initiative to talk about the purpose of her visit today:

"I came here today to visit you, Shu, and to invite you to come to the orphanage in two days to celebrate Shu's birthday. The children miss you all very much. But it seems that Jiuhua is not at home?"

Chitose Yang Kui: "She went to Kyoto to take photos!"

"Where's Matsumae?"

Fujii Itsuki: "At home in Sapporo, they said something was going on. It was probably because the New Year was coming up and Xinchun had to prepare for the New Year's festival again."

"That"

"It's okay, I will talk to them about this!" Yang Kui Chitose replied.

"." Dean Huadai was silent at first. She looked at Fujii Itsuki, "What do you think, Shu?"

Fujii Itsuki smiled and said, "It's just a birthday, it's no big deal. They have their own things to do, and I can't interrupt them because of my own things. Just tell them."

Dean Huashiro nodded.

After chatting for a while, the dean was about to leave, and Fujii Itsuki stood up to see him off.

Chitose Yangkui also wanted to go with them, but the dean didn't let her come.

When they walked outside and were about to reach the bus stop, Dean Hanashiro suddenly frowned and said to Fujii Itsuki:
"Qian Sui has no sense of propriety, and you can't have none, understand?"

"of course."

"I won't say too much else. After all, it has come to this point. Also, don't blame the dean for being too nosy. What is your relationship with Jiuhua and those two kids, Matsumae?"

".Same as Chitose."

Dean Huadai's brows were twisted into a knot.

She was a little angry, but what she didn't expect was that Fujii Itsuki added:
"Actually, Muzi is about the same."

Dean Huadai: “.?”
