In Tokyo, I just want salted fish

Chapter 559 Kai-kun's Birthday Party (End)

After getting off the tram, stepping on the cool night wind under their feet, the two walked along the bank of Kanda River together.

I walked to the gate of a building with the word "Hanamaru" written on it.

Uesugi Kai and Hanamaru Hanabi stood at the door, the pot of lilies was still standing at the door, snowflakes were falling, and the surroundings were clean and white.

The two looked at the door of Hanamaru's house in front of them, not intending to go in.

Uesugi Kai held Hanabi's hand, turned his head, smiled at her and said, "Everyone is already waiting for us at home, right?"

"Yes," Hanamaru Hanabi agreed in a weak voice, "Does Kai-kun feel that there is something to look forward to?"

"I'm looking forward to it. I'm still a little afraid to go in because I know it's a surprise, and I know I can see it when I open the door. This even requires a little psychological preparation."

Snowflakes are still falling in the sky, and the snowflakes on Christmas Day have never stopped.

The light from the street lamp shone on Hanamaru Hanabi's hair and small face, and there were two moist rays of light.

Kaoru Uesugi stared at her, fascinated.

"Mr. Kai?"

"Haha, it's nothing, it's just that you're a little dazed."

"Mr. Zhao logically said, shouldn't Mr. Zhao have already seen enough fireworks?"

"How could it be. I can't get enough of it. I still remember the way you walked out of the inner hall in Bai Wugou."

Hanamaru Hanabi also remembered the scene of the wedding that day, and Kai-kun who was standing in front of her waiting for her that day was also quite handsome:
"Kai-kun, do you like your wedding day?"

"Well, a day I will never forget. When I was in the coffee shop, I would often take out the photos taken by my aunt and the others to see Hanabi's tearful eyes, and Yuuki would often laugh at me."

"What about Kai-san?"

"what?"

"Mr. Zhao is crying while watching Huahuo. Are you also laughing at her?"

"Haha, I was laughing at her, laughing at her crying so cutely and innocently, but smiling, I couldn't help crying, and then I watched her put on the bridal gown for me, many, many The words are still stuck in my throat, I want to say, but I don’t know what to say, I just know it’s moving.”

"Mr. Zhao."

"Ah."

"Sometimes Huahuo has to admit that Mr. Kai's love words are not earthy!"

"Oh? Now you know what I mean? Shall I wrap you up with a bunch of balloons, write something like "like fireworks" on them, and let them fly into the sky?"

"I just praised Kai-kun, and Kai-kun has shown his true colors! Use balloons to write likes, love words, etc., the most rustic! But... If Kai-kun is sincere, even if it is the humble love words, Hanabi will move so much Come down."

Hanamaru Hanabi thought for a while, and raised a finger at him.

"Only one click!"

"It's really only a small stroke?"

"However, if Kai-kun runs with Huahuo on his back again, he will be moved a little bit more."

Putting up balloons is dirt, but if you really want to have that kind of experience, that kind of scene... Maybe you really don't feel that way.

Balloons all over the sky, on the green shade blown by the breeze, I carried the girl I liked on my back, and led her to run quickly on the grass. She smiled happily on her body and was tired from running, and then lay down on the grass, sniffing. Looking at the direction of the soil, holding hands, looking at the blue sky together.

Haha, it feels like a morning show on TV.

Still, it's really good.

You will be very happy when you are with the people you like.

Kai Uesugi felt that it was necessary for him to tell Hanabi what he said. After she finished listening, she immediately showed a warm smile in the snow:
"If Kai-kun wants to go, Hanabi can accompany him."

"Why are you so nice to me?"

"Because I like Kai-kun."

Just these few short words, Kai Uesugi couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

She still has the lovely shoulder-length short hair, fair skin like snow, slightly reddish cheeks, and her purple eyes shining strangely in the night, like a lighthouse in the mist.

It is hope. It is also a longing in the lost way.

Uesugi Kai couldn't help holding her little hand again, the warmth conveyed from the palm was still so familiar and so soft.

At this moment, it seemed that it was not only her hand that was held up, but also her lovely smile, and her future life.

"I like Kai-kun. In the past, it was absolutely impossible for Xiao Huahuo to take the initiative to say this sentence to me."

Hanamaru Hanabi suddenly reacted, pulled her hand back, blushed and folded in front of her little skirt:
"If Kai-kun doesn't like it, you can pretend that you didn't hear the fireworks and it's just a moment. A moment."

"Brain fever?"

"Well, Kai-kun, anyway, don't care about Kai-kun!"

"No, on the contrary, I really like Xiao Huahuo who can take the initiative to say that he likes me."

Uesugi Kai looked at her drooping eyebrows, saw her round face, suddenly felt playful, stretched out his hand, from bottom to top, and pinched her entire face.

"What are you doing?" Hanamaru Hanabi said puffing up her cheeks.

Uesugi Kai pinched her little face back and forth, allowing the flesh on her face to bounce back and change with his fingers.

"Such fireworks are very cute."

"The old ones weren't cute?"

"The old ones are cute too."

The street lamp was shining behind her, and her hair and the profile of her side face were also shrouded in a hazy glow.

Kai Uesugi looked at her beautiful and lovely like this, pinched her bulging face, and smiled:

"After talking so much, do you want to kiss me before going in?"

"Why kiss one?"

"Because I haven't kissed for a long time."

"Because I haven't kissed for a long time, I can kiss now? Also, why does Kai-kun keep pinching Hanabi's face?"

"Didn't I just say it? Because it's cute."

Uesugi Kai stared at her, seeing the bright reflection in her eyes.

Consciously or unintentionally, the body moved downwards towards her face.

Seeing him getting closer, Hanamaru Hanabi's expression was a little moved, feeling his breath approaching, her eyes dodged for a while, but soon she came back to look at him.

"Just one click."

"Well, just take it down." Uesugi Kai said, watching her close her eyes and raise her face.

She lightly pursed her lips, which were also plump and tender.

Kaoru Uesugi watched her like this, moved closer to her, and tapped lightly.

Then he hugged her slender waist and leaned her body into his arms.

When I close my eyes, it feels like everything is quiet. In front of the house, under the night, the roaring tram in Tokyo. It seems that I can only see pieces of white snowflakes falling under the light of the street lights.

Uesugi Kai returned his gaze, and kept her taste between his lips and teeth.

Seeing her wearing a scarf in front of her, breathing hot air, and her little face flushed, Kai Uesugi couldn't help laughing, the coldness of December seemed to dissipate suddenly in this moment.

"Mr. Kai, let's go in quickly, everyone is waiting."

"Well, let's go in together."

Kai Uesugi stretched out his hand to her again, looked at her, and suddenly saw her appearance more than ten years ago.

And Hanamaru Hanabi was also meeting his gaze.

The response made is also the same response as before in the past ten years.

She raised her little hand and put it on top of his palm.

Just like when she was a child, she took the hand that the boy extended to her.

Uesugi Kai smiled again, led her to the door, took out the key, and opened the door.

squeak
With the sound, the door opened.

The porch and the corridor in the living room were all pitch black.

It was so silent inside that one couldn't help but wonder why the lights weren't turned on inside.

Uesugi Kai led Hanamaru Hanabi into Hanamaru's house, before the two of them took two steps, there was a snap, and the light suddenly turned on.

Bang bang bang bang!

Immediately afterwards, the sound of several small salutes sounded, and countless gorgeous decorative fireworks danced in the narrow entrance corridor.

"Happy birthday!"

"Happy birthday brother!"

"Happy birthday brother!"

"Happy birthday brother-in-law!"

"Yi Ya~ Yi Ya~~"

A large group of people crowded in the corridor, all with smiles on their faces, they kept applauding Uesugi Kai who was standing in front of the entrance.

The atmosphere became heated in an instant.

Warm lighting, a colorful banner with "Happy 19th Birthday to Kai" written on it, and colorful balloons filled the corridor.

Aiyi, Qian Aiyi, Youxi, sister Xi, the two wives holding Huayu and Xin, even the father-in-law and the old husband stood behind and looked at him.

Everyone crowded together in this small corridor.

Uesugi Kai's feet froze in place, looking at everyone in front of him, watching them say the words to wish him a happy birthday, the warm color made his heart burst into a thousand words that were hard to express.

Being cared about by everyone, being blessed by everyone, being specially flocked to the door by everyone to welcome.

In this small house that cannot be blown by wind and snow, Kai Uesugi deeply understands that he is happy. Really happy.
Uesugi Kai unconsciously held Hanamaru Hanabi's hand, her hand was soft and reassuring.
There is a warm light ahead, showing everything, a beautiful thing called "home".

Kai Uesugi also laughed, with crystal drops of water in his eyes, holding Hanamaru Hanabi's hand, and said with a smile:

"thank you all."

"Brother-in-law is turning 19 today! Do you have any comments?"

"Haha." Uesugi Kai stretched out his other hand, and gently wiped the little crystals in the corner of his eyes, "It's just that I have had another happy year."

"Huh? Didn't my brother turn 19 a long time ago?"

"Stupid Aiyi, today is my brother's birthday."

"Oh, that's it, then I wish my brother a happy birthday again!"

Shio Uesugi put his hands on his chest and said, "It's been 19 years, and I still feel the same as when I was a child."

Mrs. Hanamaru hugged Hanamaru Hanayu who wanted to climb down, and said with a smile to the two people in front: "I came back so late, how long have you two been dating?"

Mrs. Uesugi, who was also holding the baby Uesugi Shin, joked: "It's not like you don't know, Mieko. Every time they go out on a date, they go out for a long time. Haha, really, after so many dates, don't you get tired of it?"

"You don't understand this Kiko, it's called love."

"Love?" Hanamaru Hiroki put his hands on his chest with a serious face, "If it's love, it's not our turn to hold a birthday instead, and he won't neglect Hanabi for one night. At the beginning, I didn't approve of their two going It’s too close, this time it’s good, they’re stuck together, they’re inseparable.”

"My child's father, you can bless her as long as you bless her. Why are you talking backwards on purpose?"

On the other hand, Uesugi's father smiled and said: "He is like this, his daughter has been bullied, and he can't find a place to vent his anger, haha, of course that's the only way to go."

"Kenichi, you are not your daughter anyway, are you?"

After finishing what he said just now, Hanamaru Hiroki sighed, and looked at the two people in front of him who he watched growing up, especially Kai Uesugi:

"Since Huahuo has forgiven you, I can't say anything else. This Christmas birthday party was also proposed by Huahuo to be held together. For this, I turned down all my work."

"Thank you father-in-law."

"Stinky boy! You still know how to call me father-in-law. As a husband, you should cheer up! Huahuo has entrusted her entire life to you! Don't underestimate my daughter!"

Facing his father-in-law's sternness, Uesugi Kai clenched Hanamaru Hanabi's little hand tighter, and nodded with some choking: "Yes, I know."

Mrs. Hanamaru couldn't help but teased her husband:

"You still have the nerve to say, Xiao Kai, on the day of Huahuo's wedding, didn't you just hide from us and hold back your tears? So it's really hard to let go of a man's airs."

"As a father-in-law, you should look like a father-in-law." Hanamaru Yuki relaxed his voice, and looked at Uesugi again, "Anyway, I still wish you a happy birthday today. Hanabi has prepared so much for you, and I will not give you anything in return. You asked for it, it can be said that she has your shadow in her whole life, if you forget her again, I will never forgive you!"

"I see."

Uesugi's father tried to smooth things over, and said with a smile: "Okay, everyone, stop blocking the door, and welcome the two of you into the house. It must have been cold outside just now."

"Keep drinking!"

"No drinking." Hanamaru Hanabi interrupted suddenly.

Hanamaru Hiroki was stunned for a moment, looked at her daughter's blushing, and smiled, "Well, I won't drink today, just eat, let's go back to the living room."

When everyone returned to the living room in twos and threes.

There were only two people left in the entrance.

The atmosphere became quiet again.

"Mr. Zhao."

"Well, I'm here, I've always been here."

"Besides marrying Hanabi, Kai-kun is actually happy in other places, right?"

"Yes, but it's all because of Huahuo. I have happiness. My life is really worth it."

"Hanabi. That's right. But in the days to come, Hanabi still wants to hear Kai-kun's voice and see how bad he is."

"Huahuo me too, I have always been, and I still want to hear Xiao Huahuo calling 'Mr. Kai' in a weak voice in my ear."

The two held hands and clasped each other.

The two pairs of eyes met and smiled at each other.

"Mr. Kai, go in, today is Mr. Kai's birthday, you must be happy."

"Yes, I will. Because I not only have Hanabi, but also care about us."

Kai Uesugi and Hanamaru Hanabi smiled again, and finally put their foreheads together in a heartbeat, closed their eyes, and smiled warmly while feeling each other
In the living room of Hanamaru's house, which was full of candles, Uesugi Kai listened to the happy birthday song that Mrs. Hanamaru led everyone to sing in unison, and blew out the candles.

"Happy Birthday Uesugi Kai!!"

"Great!"

"Brother! Come and cut the cake! Aiyi wants to eat it."

"Stupid Aiyi, shouldn't my brother be the first to eat?"

"It seems so."

"Haha, it's okay, it's okay, brother-in-law doesn't care about such details."

"That's right, as long as you eat happily, there will be dinner later, don't eat too much."

"Yeeeeeeeeee~"

In the suddenly dark snowy night, listening to everyone's warm blessing and applause, Uesugi Kai still clasped Hanamaru Hanabi's little hand, turned his head, and showed a smile to her bright purple eyes, only to her.

His mood at this moment is just like it has always been--I will always love you, my Huahuo sauce
