Shugo Chara: Be happy today too

——.

Naiki Shrine.

The sound of the bells at the New Year shrine is melodious, and the sound of the bells at the New Year shrine is meant to remove worries. One bell removes one worry, and one hundred and eight bells means removing all worries.

After the bell rang, Aoki Yasu, Kukai, Yui, Nadeshiko, Amu, and Miya washed their hands and mouths beside the shrine.

Afterwards, several people walked into the shrine, chatting and laughing.

Kūkai suddenly cried out.

Yui looked over and said, "What's wrong? Soma-kun."

Kong Hai raised his right hand helplessly. There was some stain on it. "Maybe I accidentally touched the grass on the roadside just now."

"Oh, that's bad." Nadeshiko pretended to be worried, "I can only go back and wash it again."

"Hey - but there are so many people. If we go back, we'll have to wait in line for a while." Miya pouted her lips capriciously, "It's better for Kong Hai to go back alone."

"You guy..." Kong Hai was a little helpless and scratched his head, "Then you guys go first, and An will stay with me."

Aoki Yasushi:?

Nadeshiko didn't give her a chance to speak: "Okay, see you at the fortune-telling table later."

Having said that, Fuzi pulled the confused Yameng away first.

Seeing this, Miya immediately smiled playfully and waved: "Goodbye, Xiaoan, Konghai!"

"Well, we'll go first." Wei Shi raised his hand and smiled gently.

In just a few seconds, the four people blended into the crowd in front and disappeared.

Aoki Yasushi: ...

It would be weird if we can't tell that they did this on purpose.

When did other people know about it?

No, that's not right. Apart from Nadeshiko, no one else should know yet.

Needless to say, Amen was completely confused. Miya obviously didn't want to stay, so she left happily. Yui seemed to have only seen through Nadeshiko's hint and left at the last moment.

"..." This Nadeshiko...

"Well, let's go." Kong Hai suddenly approached Aoki An.

Qing Mu An subconsciously turned his attention back and looked over, and saw the smugness that could not be concealed on the other person's lips.

Aoki Yasushi: ...

Kukai and Nadeshiko colluded...

Kukai...

Plop. Aoki An turned his head away from Kukai's sight, his ears turning red suspiciously.

The two of them returned to the shrine, and Kūkai washed his hands and mouth once again.

Perhaps it was because they were in a sacred temple, or perhaps it was simply because Kukai did nothing...

Aoki Yasu gradually calmed down and was able to calmly appreciate the environment of the shrine and quietly observe Kukai.

Maybe it was because she had been cared for and taken care of by him for a long time... She felt inexplicably safe when she was next to him... He was only one year older than her, but his figure made her feel steady, reliable and safe...

The slightly long-winded caring words, the actions to protect her at the first time, the shoulder rest on the bus, the shawl pulled up for her on the snowy day, the thoughtful apology and the specially prepared Christmas gift...

The thoughtful care and sincere love from the warm-hearted man next door...

His right hand was suddenly held, and the coolness from the cold water wash slightly dispersed the heat in his palm, allowing Qingmu An to come back to his senses.

"Can we hold hands?"

While asking this, Kong Hai had already clenched his hand tightly, as if he would not let go no matter what the other party said.

"..."

Aoki An's cheeks turned slightly red, and he didn't dare to speak. He just looked away, pretending to look at the scenery, tacitly agreeing, and went into the shrine with Kukai.

Yui, Yui, and Daichi hid far away and peeked in, all with expressions as if they were shocked.

The shrine was filled with smoke from incense as the two walked hand in hand, like an ordinary couple going to the shrine together for the New Year. The surroundings were filled with an affectionate and ambiguous atmosphere.

I don't know when it developed like this...

So satisfying...

Qing Mu'an felt a little hot in his heart, and suddenly thought of his depression and anxiety. He couldn't help but suppress the emotions in his eyes, and felt bitter in his heart... Forget it, just treat it as New Year's Day and allow yourself to be unrestrained for once...

He bowed in front of the temple and rang the bell.

Drop a coin into the chest and bow twice again.

Aoki An clapped his hands together twice, closed his eyes, and made a wish.

I hope that this year I can completely get rid of my past memories, return to my childhood self, and then respond to Kukai's feelings in the best state, and be with Kukai smoothly. Also, my brother is safe and sound in his career, and the protagonists are not affected by variables and grow up smoothly...

After making a New Year's wish, Kong Hai next to him couldn't help but turn his head. Seeing Aoki Yasu's pious face, his heart softened and he curved his eyes.

——.

After a moment, at the Divine Fortune Place.

Qing Mu An stared at the lot in his hand and twitched his lips.

No, she just made a wish, why did she draw "Great Misfortune"...

"I drew a lucky number."

A smile appeared on Yui's face.

Miracle and You proudly praised: "Well done, Wei Shi."

Nadeshiko looked at the lot in her hand: "Mine is Nakayoshi."

Temari smiled and said, "That's not bad."

Miye happily showed the fortune in her hand: "Miya is very lucky!"

Pippi said as a matter of course: "Of course!"

Aoki Yasushi: ...

Qing Mu An quietly put away the signature in his hand. Before he even started to fold it, Miya came up to him curiously: "Xiao An-chan! What's Xiao An-chan's signature?"

Yui dead fish eyes: "An-chan drew "Very Bad"."

Stop talking, she's about to break... Aoki An folded the divine fortune into a long strip with an expressionless face.

At this time, Dadi exclaimed, "Not bad, Kong Hai, you got a great fortune."

!!!

what? !

In the anime, the one that Kong Hai picked was "evil"... Aoki An looked over and saw Kong Hai grinning, throwing the fortune stick at her, and said proudly, "As expected of me."

Aoki Yasushi: ...

! So bad!

"Where is Xiao Meng-chan?" Miya asked again.

"Sueyoshi." Yameng said somewhat embarrassedly.

"Much better than me..." Qing Mu An's expression was empty, as if his soul had left his body.

Yameng: ...

"An-chan, cheer up," Yameng quickly comforted, "Don't worry about the result of the draw."

Such a familiar line of speech... Qingmu Anmu glanced at Yameng: "Even if you say so..."

"Okay." Kūkai had laughed enough, walked over, pushed Aoki An's back, took her to the knot of the divine fortune, and taught her to use her left hand, which she did not use often, to tie the divine fortune to the knot with one hand.

"This way, we will leave our bad luck at the shrine."

Kong Hai stood behind her, with his height advantage, and his whole body seemed to be hugging Aoki An from behind.

Unfortunately, the two parties involved did not realize that there was anything wrong.

Kong Hai lowered his eyes slightly and continued, "It is intended to turn misfortune into good fortune."

Aoki Yasu looked stunned, looking at his own fortune tied to the knot of the fortune, which together with the fortunes of others formed a 'white paper wall'.

She raised her head involuntarily and met Kong Hai's eyes.

For a moment, the atmosphere was particularly beautiful.

Amu, Nadeshiko, Miya, and Yui, who were not far away: …

And a bunch of guardian angels: …

Fuzi held her forehead in silence: These two guys...did they lose their brains because of the New Year?

Yameng blinked blankly, not quite understanding: "Kukai... seems to be a little close to An-chan?"

Miya tilted her head even more: "Is Kong Hai holding Xiao An?"

Yui suddenly realized: "Soma-kun actually..."

"..." Nadeshiko, "Don't tell her for now. An is a little shy. If you tell her, she will definitely run away when Soma-kun pursues her."

Yameng and Miya reacted, then suddenly widened their eyes: "Hey——"
