1979: My fiancée is a goddess

Chapter 419 Childhood Sweethearts Who Passed By

Since it was already late, Cheng Kaiyan gave up on the idea of ​​going out with Mingming from the foreign affairs department, since speaking English would allow her to get by anywhere in Japan.

Take the elevator downstairs, leave the mansion and come out onto the street.

Bright streetlights lined the road, and cars occasionally drove by on the road, while pedestrians spoke Japanese that I couldn't understand.

A cool night breeze blew gently, and Cheng Kaiyan took a deep breath and exhaled a breath of stale air. Looking at the crescent moon hanging high in the sky, she felt much more relaxed.

The person is still the same person, the moon is still the same moon, but they are now in a foreign land.

"Let's just wander around."

Cheng Kaiyan walked briskly and slowly toward the place where the neon lights were flashing in the distance.

These days, the more lights and colors a street has, the more prosperous it must be.

In fact, his judgment was correct; that direction was where Shinjuku Station was located, and many department stores and shopping streets were situated to the south of the station.

It took about ten minutes to walk.

"Ding Ding Ding-"

The air was filled with the sounds of laughter and tram horns, while the shop's speakers played Akina Nakamori's songs, her voice clear and ethereal...

Cheng Kaiyan stood next to the green sign that read "Shinjuku Station" in both Japanese and English, and looked up.

A huge rectangular three-dimensional building came into view, with flashing billboards on its exterior walls, advertising LV and Nike.

A surging crowd swept past me at the station entrance, while couples, hand in hand, kissed passionately on a park bench, oblivious to everyone else...

A bustling and vibrant atmosphere swept over me, more tangible than what I had seen through the glass window the past two days, reminiscent of China in the 2010s.

Looking at everything before her, Cheng Kaiyan had the illusion that she had traveled through time again.

"Gome na sei, Onii-chan..."

Suddenly, a cute, childlike voice rang out beside me.

Cheng Kaiyan looked down.

A little girl with her hair in a bun and wearing a pink coat was pushing a cart full of colorful flowers. She was looking up at me with her big, watery eyes and a sweet smile on her face.

"NoNoNo! I don't need flwoer!"

Cheng Kaiyan knew that the little girl wanted to sell him flowers. Although he liked children, he still refused her with a heart of stone.

Most flower-selling girls use tricks; they're after your money.

"Eh?"

The little girl immediately looked dejected. Although she was only in elementary school, she could still understand the most common English.

"Yeah yeah~"

But she didn't intend to give up. Instead, she hugged the arm of the handsome older brother in front of her, acting cute and pitiful as she shook it back and forth, making soft, coquettish noises.

Cheng Kaiyan tried to activate her "Iron Heart" skill again, but it failed. Helpless, she spent 100 yen to buy a bouquet of roses and stuffed them in her mouth. Come to think of it, this kind of flower is really rare in China.

Bye-bye, Onii-chan!

The little girl waved her hands dramatically, then her short legs happily pushed the cart toward the bustling station entrance.

"It's so cute..."

Cheng Kaiyan sighed, and then saw the little girl at the station entrance a few hundred meters away, where she was again acting coquettishly with two young women holding hands.

"So she was just playing the victim, wasn't she? But... I feel like that girl's back looks kind of familiar... Oh well, I'll go get some fries."

He felt relieved that his guess was correct, but since the little girl had given him a lot of emotional value and the flowers weren't expensive, he wasn't too upset.

Looking at the two girls from several hundred meters away in the crowd, they seemed somewhat familiar, but I didn't think much of it and turned to walk towards the shop with the familiar sign of the muscular old man on the bustling street.

……

"Ruixue, Nanako is so pitiful. Her father went bankrupt in the stock market and jumped off a building, her mother is hospitalized, her older sister is still in college, and she's only six years old and has to sell flowers... Waaah!"

"Let's buy her all the flowers, so that Nanako can go home sooner, okay?"

Sentimental and kind-hearted young lady Ayana Uesugi couldn't help but squat down and hug the little girl after hearing her story.

"..."

Zhao Ruixue looked at the little girl, who was huddled together with her friend, and whose face was buried in her friend's full chest, and couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

This is obviously made up!
How could any fool believe it and cry so heartbrokenly, feeling the same way?

Zhao Ruixue suddenly remembered something Cheng Kaiyan had once said: "Big breasts, no brains!"
That's absolutely true.

"Then let's buy a few bouquets and put them in vases."

After thinking about it, Zhao Ruixue decided to buy two bouquets.

Recently, in order to be able to focus on her creative work without distractions, she rented an apartment near the school. The room wasn't too big or too small, but it still felt a bit lonely living alone, so she definitely needed to buy something to decorate it.

"Hehe, Ruixue is so kind."

When the two went out, Zhao Ruixue always made the decisions. Uesugi Ayana would happily flatter her a few times, then take out her wallet with a picture of a celebrity on it, pull out several bills and stuff them into the little girl's hand, and then casually pick up a few bunches of flowers of different colors.

"Thank you sister!"

You're welcome!

After seeing the little girl off, Ayana Uesugi remarked, "What a polite child. She'll definitely grow up to be a beautiful girl..."

"Ha ha……"

Zhao Ruixue was speechless.

"Hey... Ruixue-chan, I see KFC, want some ice cream?"

Uesugi Ayana clutched her suddenly hungry stomach and said.

"Didn't we just have French food in Ginza? You ate so many desserts, don't tell me you're still not full?" Zhao Ruixue said casually.

"Hehe, I want to eat it."

"Then go ahead, I'll sit here and wait for you." ...

"A bag of fries, an ice cream, a cheeseburger! And two family buckets!"

"Family bucket? Sorry sir, we only have fried chicken buckets, not family buckets. But we have a promotion: buy a fried chicken bucket and get a free rice ball and mashed potatoes!"

"No matter what, give me two buckets."

"That's five thousand six hundred yen in total!"

"It's quite expensive. Teacher Shui must be feeling the pinch. Oh well, I'll just pay for it myself."

Cheng Kaiyan came out of the store carrying two large bags in one hand.

I came here for the fries, but the ice cream melts easily.

So we decided to eat ice cream first.

It's icy cold on the palate, sweet with a rich milky aroma.

Cheng Kaiyan squatted under a tree by the roadside, eating and watching the passersby with deep emotion. He was content to be able to eat KFC in the 1980s.

But soon, an unexpected event occurred.

"what!!"

A panicked scream came from behind, and a soft body fell onto Cheng Kaiyan's strong back.

Fortunately, Cheng Kaiyan reacted quickly, straining her muscles to withstand the impact.

No one was hurt, but the ice cream flew out and landed on the ground.

"Ice cream! Two hundred yen!"

Cheng Kaiyan looked at the half-eaten ice cream and felt her heart bleed; he had paid for it himself.

"Gomenase!"

The woman behind him had already come to her senses and hurriedly apologized. However, upon hearing Cheng Kaiyan's Chinese, she subconsciously asked in broken and awkward Chinese, "Chinese?"

Cheng Kaiyan turned around and saw a petite but well-proportioned young woman in front of her. She had fair skin and bright, sparkling eyes, and looked like a lovely and kind girl.

"..."

Ayana Uesugi only then got a clear look at the Chinese youth in front of her, and she was stunned when she saw what he looked like.

So handsome, so charismatic!
Her eyes are especially beautiful, even more beautiful than gemstones!
"Hello, I'm Ayana Uesugi. I'm so sorry about earlier..."

Ayana Uesugi pointed to a protruding brick on the street, stuck out her tongue cutely, and apologized to Cheng Kaiyan.

But Cheng Kaiyan was heartless, and expressionlessly stretched out her hand: "You understand Chinese, right? Pay up, two hundred yen!"

"Well--"

Uesugi Ayana looked at the boy, who was completely unmoved by her cuteness and beauty, and spoke with a firm tone.

She finally shut her mouth, reluctantly took out two hundred yuan from her wallet and gave it to him, saying indignantly, "Here you go!"

"OK! We're even."

Cheng Kaiyan waved her hand, signaling the girl to leave quickly. The fact that she could fall flat on her face showed she wasn't very bright.

Thinking of this, Cheng Kaiyan subconsciously glanced at Uesugi Ayana's chest.

The lace-trimmed dress tightly hugged her chest, and her shadow under the streetlights appeared so round and swaying with each tiptoe she made.

"She really is all looks and no brains!"

"???"

Uesugi Ayana's eyes widened as she looked down at Cheng Kaiyan, her face instantly turning red. But she knew she was in the wrong, so she could only stomp her foot in embarrassment and anger before turning and rushing into the KFC.

Cheng Kaiyan continued to squat by the roadside, crunching away on her fries.

after awhile.

When Ayana Uesugi came out of the store, she found the young man from earlier still squatting by the roadside eating fries, and she glared at him resentfully.

Then I noticed the ice cream that had fallen to the ground in front of him, his somewhat unfashionable trousers, and his pair of dark cotton shoes.

She then realized that this young man probably came from a poor family.
Otherwise, why would they care so much about two hundred yen?
Thinking of this, she went back and bought an ice cream, walked behind Cheng Kaiyan, and kicked his butt in a fit of anger.

Cheng Kaiyan, with a French fry in her mouth, turned around angrily, "It's you again! What are you doing?"

But then I saw that the girl was holding two ice creams in her hands, and one was stuffed in her rosy little mouth. She was so cold that she was breathing out cold air.

"You stingy bastard! Here, it's your compensation!"

Ayana Uesugi reached out and handed her one, speaking strangely because she still had one in her mouth.

"……Thanks."

Cheng Kaiyan understood, took the gift, and thanked her shyly. This girl was kind-hearted.

"Humph!"

Ayana Uesugi momentarily forgot to take the ice cream out of her mouth, and with the ice cream still in her mouth, she subconsciously raised her chin proudly, feeling that she had done another good deed!
"Ha ha……"

Seeing this, Cheng Kaiyan smiled and took a bite of ice cream.

Ayana Uesugi nodded in satisfaction, then happily ran off, making Cheng Kaiyan a little worried that the girl might fall again.

……

"Ruixue! I just met a young Chinese guy, but he was so poor! He was squatting by the roadside watching me eat ice cream, so I treated him to some!"

"Chinese boy?"

"Yes, he's really handsome, especially his eyes!"

"Eye?"

Zhao Ruixue was stunned. She remembered that Cheng Kaiyan's eyes were also particularly beautiful, watery peach blossom eyes that turned golden when the sunlight shone on them.
