Xia Zhi complained in his heart, looking at the pink-haired girl who was about to turn around and leave, and after thinking for a while, he said aloud:

“I will send you back.”

Rinne was slightly stunned, but did not refuse, and a gentle smile appeared on her face:

“Okay.”

……

Walking side by side with the girl on the quiet and deserted street, the road ahead was illuminated by the moonlight and street lamps, and the sound of footsteps that were gradually becoming more consistent could be clearly heard in my ears.

Xia Zhi looked at the pink-haired girl who was walking with her hands behind her back, deliberately stepping on the seams left by the paving on the ground. From her brisk steps, it could be seen that she seemed to be in a good mood.

“Xiazhi, what kind of dishes would you like to eat tomorrow?”

Halfway through the walk, Rinne turned her head and looked at him for advice.

“Any dish is fine?” Xia Zhi asked.

“It’s best if you can buy it in a nearby supermarket.” Rinne replied, and after a pause, she continued with a smile:

“However, as long as Xia Zhi likes it, I will try to do the other things as well.”

Try to try harder… I just want to eat braised mammoth meat, and you’re going to make it for me, right?

Xia Zhi complained in his heart, but looking at the girl’s gentle eyes, he inexplicably had a feeling that “maybe she would really do that.”

“…”

He slightly turned his gaze away and changed the subject, “The dishes we cooked tonight seem to be all Chinese?”

Lin Ni tilted her head slightly and answered as a matter of course: “Because, aren’t those the dishes Xia Zhi likes to eat?”

really.

Xia Zhi thought.

Although those were indeed the dishes that usually suited his preferences, there were three or four people in the family, so he couldn’t just cater to his taste… It was as if they were prepared specifically for him.

But, let’s not talk about other people…

“What are your preferences?” he continued.

“me?”

Rinne thought about it, shook her head slightly, and replied softly:

“I don’t care, as long as Xia Zhi likes it.”

“Someone just said that it’s not good to only care about others. You should also pay more attention to caring about yourself, right?” Xia Zhi echoed what she had just said at the dinner table, indicating that she should lead by example.

“That’s true…” The girl put her finger on her chin, thought for a moment, and then smiled and replied, “Then let me put it another way. As long as Xia Zhi likes it, I like it too.”

There’s no need to go to this extent… This has gone beyond the scope of ordinary childhood sweethearts, right?

“despair……”

Just as Xia Zhi was thinking this, he heard a crisp sound in his ears, and the girl stopped in front of a house.

Only then did Xia Zhi notice that they had unknowingly arrived at the girl’s doorstep.

The door of the house was closed and there were no lights on inside. Just as Kotori had said before, her parents were not at home.

…Or in other words, does she really have such nominal parents in this time and space?

“Would you like to come in and sit for a while?” Rinne invited him.

“No need.”

Xia Zhi came back to his senses and shook his head, “It’s just that I have something to ask you.”

“Ok, I know.”

The girl seemed to be mentally prepared. As she spoke, she took half a step forward and came to the bottom of the street light.

However, before that…

“Although Xia Zhi already knows about this, I still need to introduce myself properly.”

Under the soft moonlight, she turned around with her hands behind her back, her bright, starry light brown eyes staring deeply at Xia Zhi, and her cherry-colored lips slightly parted.

“Sonogami Rinne, this is my name.”

The girl had a gentle smile on her face and continued softly:

“Nice to meet you, Xiazhi.”

“…”

If she had only hinted at her attempts before, then the girl’s words now were equivalent to directly acknowledging her special identity that was different from other elf girls.

At the same time, it also confirmed Xia Zhi’s previous guess.

“I know what Xia Zhi wants to ask.”

Before Xia Zhi was about to continue asking questions, the girl put a finger to his lips, stopping him from saying anything else.

“But, can it wait a moment?”

Lin Ni raised her head, looking at his eyes with a faint twinkling light: “I know Xia Zhi has a lot of doubts, and I also know that Xia Zhi will never be bound by this world from the beginning… But, just regard it as my only willfulness, please wait a moment… just wait a moment…”

“In the end, I will tell you everything.”

“…”

Listening to the girl’s almost pleading words, Xia Zhi fell silent for a moment.

Honestly speaking, it would always feel a little weird if someone you just met had such deep feelings for you, but when it happened to a young girl, it didn’t feel weird at all.

On the one hand, this comes from the fact that Xia Zhi is more or less aware of the other party’s background, and on the other hand, it comes from the fact that the girl herself has a sincere feeling that makes people easy and willing to trust her.

Of course, this is not what he is most concerned about right now.

What Xia Zhi cares about most now is whether the girl’s existence is related to that unknown anomaly.

“You said, ‘everything’?” he asked, tilting his head slightly.

“Well… that also includes the thing Xia Zhi is concerned about.”

Rinne nodded slightly, and a smile appeared on her face again:

“So, don’t worry about it, and don’t be anxious. Just enjoy this world to the fullest during Xia Zhi.”

Even if you say so… let me enjoy this world, I don’t know what exactly I should do?

Xia Zhi complained in his heart.

“Anything.”

As if she could see what was in his mind, Rinne’s smile became even wider.

She took a half step back, put her hands behind her back and continued, “Whether it’s going to school, falling in love, dating, traveling, reading, exercising, helping others, doing evil, saving others, or doing nothing…”

“No matter what, no matter what Xia Zhi wants to do, I will always support you.”

She took a deep breath, stared into the boy’s eyes, and said in a very gentle voice:

“So, just go for it, Xiazhi… Use the way you like to pursue the happiness you want.”

……… .. 0

“…”

It has always been Xia Zhi who has promised happiness to others, but this is the first time that someone has wished happiness to me.

He looked at the pink-haired girl in front of him, opened his mouth slightly, and called her name softly: “Rinne.”

This was the first time he formally called out the girl’s name.

Hearing this, Rinne was slightly stunned.

“That’s not willful.”

At most, it can only be regarded as a promise that the girl hopes to achieve.

Without paying attention to the girl’s daze, Xia Zhi reached out his hand and gently brushed away the scattered hair on her cheek.

…In exchange for enjoying happiness, she will give me all the answers I want in the end… No matter how I think about it, it seems like I am the only one who has borne the benefits?

“But unfortunately, an agreement is a two-way agreement. I don’t agree with such a one-sided agreement.”

So of course…

Xia Zhi looked at the girl, who was rarely uneasy because of being “rejected” by him, and chuckled. He gently stroked her cheek with his fingertips and said softly:

“As a condition of this, we have agreed that I will save you as well.”

save……?

Before Rinne could come to her senses, Xia Zhi touched her head for the last time.

“Well…good night, have a good dream.”

After saying goodbye to the girl, Xia Zhi turned and left without asking any further questions, blocking any possible responses from her.

…You just said that you don’t recognize unilateral agreements, right?

Rinne thought, feeling the remaining warmth on her hair and cheeks.

but

“…”

Sweet dream… huh…

Staring at Xia Zhi’s back as he left, she took back the finger that had just touched the boy’s lips and clenched it slightly in her palm, then placed both her hands lightly on her chest.

“…I don’t need your rescue, Xia Zhi…”

As long as you are happy, it will be my greatest salvation.

So

The girl thought to herself, clenched her hands slightly in front of her chest, and whispered in a voice that only she could hear:

“I will definitely… make you happy…”

……

PS: Here is a picture of Rinne… It’s hard to find a clear picture (several.

Chapter 1229 People can, at least they should try (x

In modern society, when a person says he wants to make you happy, it can usually be regarded as a signal of confession and proposal.

But Xia Zhi is sure that there is no such meaning in what Rinne said just now.

…or rather, it goes far beyond this meaning.

While thinking about this, Xia Zhi returned home and just opened the door, he heard a noisy noise coming from the living room.

He walked into the living room and saw Kotori hurriedly hiding something behind her.

Beside her, Yoshino was holding a half-eaten pudding in her hand, looking at her with confusion, her head slightly tilted.

“Brother…Brother, you’re back so soon?” Qinli pulled the corner of her mouth and asked in an unnatural tone.

Do you want me to stay out longer?

Xia Zhi glanced at her hands behind her back and said, “Didn’t Rinni say ‘920’ and told you to eat when you’re hungry tonight?”

Hearing this, Qin Li turned her eyes away guiltily: “You, what are you talking about, I don’t know.”

“Wipe the residue from the corner of your mouth before you say that.”

Xia Zhi came to Yoshino and helped her wipe the cream off her hands.

The girl subconsciously touched the corner of her mouth, but felt nothing. Instead, the dessert hidden behind her fell down and was exposed to Xia Zhi’s vision.

“…”

Kotori blushed slightly, and faced the boy’s gaze, she argued:

“I left some for you.”

I don’t really care about this…
