I have pure love with them

Sitting at the dining table in silence, Ms. Nagasaki didn't know how to answer for a moment. She slowly lowered her head, looked at the wine glass in her hand, hesitated for a moment, and put it on the table.

Those few words and that simple action made Ms. Nagasaki feel extremely upset.

After a long time, she slowly spoke.

"That's not a reason."

“But that’s part of the reason why it’s important.”

"Don't you consider Shuangshi's safety?"

"It is precisely because of safety considerations that this is more reasonable, right?"

In front of Ms. Nagasaki, Izumi took advantage of his age, while Ms. Nagasaki seemed to be hesitant to speak. Her eyes fell on the boy in front of her, thinking that he had just entered puberty and was indeed at an energetic age.

“But that still doesn’t mean it’s correct.”

In response, Quan smiled and looked at Ms. Nagasaki in front of her, and she herself fell into silence.

"This will only hurt Shuangshi."

"Maybe, but Shuangshi is just Shuangshi, and you are just you."

Ms. Nagasaki remained silent, then a smile appeared on her face and her eyes were fixed on Izumi in front of her.

"Your words do make some sense. I understand. So, let's stop here for today."

She also understood that the key to the problem did not lie with Quan. There was no point in simply persuading Quan. If her daughter did not wake up, then everything she did now would be unnecessary.

"It's hard for Shuangshi to give up just because of my persuasion. She still endured it even though she already knew about it. So... I can only start from another angle."

Ms. Nagasaki stood up and her eyes fell on Izumi.

"..."

She wanted to say something, but found that she didn't seem to have anything to say. After staring at Quan for a moment, Ms. Nagasaki turned and left.

"..."

Not far from their table, a girl with long light green hair who came with her family to eat looked at Ms. Nagasaki leaving and Izumi who was still sitting at the table with an expressionless face.

Without taking any photos, nor going up to greet Quan, whom she was not familiar with, the girl took note of the scene before her, then slowly turned around and left.

Izumi watched Ms. Nagasaki leave and realized something. He turned around and looked in the direction of the girl. When he saw the girl's figure going away, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"Wakaba Mutsu?"

For a moment, Lian Quan was a little surprised. He didn't expect to meet Ruoye Mu in such an occasion.

'one person?'

When Ruo Yemu's figure disappeared, Quan sat silently at the dining table. He thought for a moment, then looked at the wine glass opposite him and sighed softly. Today's events would probably have some aftermath.

"Let's go back."

When he was about to leave, the waiter stopped Quan and said that the bill had not been settled yet.

"..."

After paying the bill, he took the receipt, quietly put it into his pocket, took the subway alone, and returned home. When he arrived home, he happened to meet his family sitting at the dining table for dinner.

"Welcome back, I need to prepare for you--"

"No, I'll go back to my room and rest for a while."

He smiled at his parents, glanced at his sister who was observing him out of the corner of his eye, then went up the stairs and returned to his room.

"He doesn't look like he's in a very good mood."

After her brother left, Chihaya Aine muttered something softly. The Chihaya couple who heard it looked at each other and had no intention of going up to investigate.

For the two of them, Quan is no longer a child and should have his own privacy. If Quan is not prepared to tell his family, family members should respect Quan and not delve into his affairs too much.

Sitting at the quiet dining table, Chihaya Aine was full of curiosity about Izumi's affairs.

Seeing that her parents did not respond, she finished her dinner and stood up quietly.

"I'm ready."

Then he quickly walked towards the stairs.

"..."

The two people sitting at the dining table looked at Chihaya Aine who was leaving, and the look in their eyes suddenly became a lot more relieved.

"With each other here, we don't need to worry."

After Mrs. Chihaya withdrew her gaze, she looked at her husband and spoke with a smile.

"Ah."

The man nodded slightly.

……

When she arrived at the door of Izumi's room, Chihaya Aine did not rush to knock on the door. Instead, she stood in front of the door and waited quietly for a moment. After she heard no sound coming from Izumi's room, she slowly walked to the door and knocked gently.

"Am I coming in?"

Whispering softly, Chihaya Aine placed her hand on the handshake before slowly opening the door to see Izumi sitting in the room.

The other person sat quietly on the edge of the bed, looking like she was thinking about something. After she entered the room, Quan slowly looked at her.

"Are you okay?"

Chihaya Aine entered the room, her eyes fell on her brother, and she asked with concern.

"Hmm? I'm fine... Did you come here because you were worried about me?"

"When you came back, you didn't seem to be in a good mood, so I came to see you."

Hearing Aine's words, Quan smiled softly and looked at his sister's face. The concern in her eyes made him feel a little relieved. He reached out and patted his side gently.

"..."

Seeing Izumi's actions, Chihaya Aine hesitated for a moment, then slowly walked to Izumi's side and sat down beside him. After Aine sat down on the edge of the bed, Izumi lay down sideways, resting his head on Aine's legs, and closed his eyes comfortably.

"Wait……"

Watching her brother lying down skillfully, Chihaya Aine was stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't help but complain.

"Why did you lie down on your own?"

"Because I'm tired, and you haven't paid much attention to me these past two days, which makes me feel bad. I need to replenish my Aine energy."

After hearing what Izumi said, Chihaya Aine did not feel moved. Instead, her body shuddered and she felt a little embarrassed. Words like 'Aine energy' always made her sound childish.

“It’s a little disgusting.”

She expressed her disdain subtly.

In response, Izumi did not give any answer, but just lay quietly on her legs. Chihaya Aine lowered her head and looked at her brother's face.

"The person you are meeting tonight is not Shuangshi, right?"

"Ah."

"Does seeing each other make you tired?"

"A little bit."

Although Izumi could ignore Ms. Nagasaki, that would make Nagasaki Soyo feel embarrassed.

Looking at her brother, Chihaya Aine pursed her lips slightly.

"Can I help you with anything?"

"No, just keep it like this."

"Well...if you think this is okay."

Reaching out and gently stroking Izumi's soft hair, Chihaya Aine stopped talking and quietly comforted her brother, hoping that this would relieve some of his fatigue.

Even though she often makes some willful demands on her brother in life, when her brother needs her, she is not stingy and is willing to do everything she can for her brother.

Watching her brother's frown gradually relax and his expression gradually soften, Chihaya Aine looked at her brother's face and her thoughts gradually drifted away.

……

After the ticket check, Quan followed the crowd into the stadium where the game was held.

There were only a few people sitting inside the entire venue.

"The game seems to be quite popular, so... you are not interested in the participating teams?"

Looking towards the stage, today was Shun and his friends' match. At their invitation, Quan came to watch the game with a ticket.

'Suddenly I thought of the classic plot where the protagonist loses the game, which triggers the memories of his former teammates sitting in the audience. After the memories, the former teammates stand up and rejoin the team, thus making a comeback and winning.'

But Izumi is not Shun's former teammate, and in an official competition of this scale, the participating members have clear records. As a non-team member, Izumi obviously has no chance of participating.

'Will you win?'

Quan, who had nothing to do, also investigated the situation of Shun and his opponents. After carefully looking at each other's strength, Quan nodded.

'Think about how to comfort them.'

Most games have talent requirements for professional players, especially shooting games, which have very high requirements for players' reactions, operations, team awareness, and psychological qualities.

'A talented player who has been playing computer games for less than two months, an ordinary player who has been hovering in the middle for a long time, and an ordinary female player...'

If it was just a moment, after professional training, Quan felt that he had the potential to become a professional player, but at his current level, it would be good enough if he was not killed in an instant.

"Just sit here."

When Quan was staring at the stage in a daze, he heard an unfamiliar girl's voice beside him. He turned his head slightly to the side and saw two girls who were brightly dressed and looked like e-sports girls sitting down next to him.

431. Toyokawa Shoko: So what’s the price?

There was basically no suspense in the game. Quan, who was sitting in the audience, watched the game end. He reached out and gently pinched the bridge of his nose, then slowly stood up.

"Failed..."
