[Masayuki Canghong] Party Talk

Different people at the banquet, including Sachiko, either implicitly or generously observed Date Masamune and Sanada Yukimura, but Date Masamune stared at Sanada Yukimura without realizing it.

After saying hello, Sanada Yukimura, who unknowingly met Date Masamune's eyes because of the other party's aura, was aroused to win or lose - about the eye contact - while thinking that he seemed to have forgotten something .

Date Masamune looked at Sanada Yukimura with blazing eyes, and understood that the other party was not thinking the same thing as him.The "affectionate gaze" between two people who share the same mind will turn into a "showdown" between the two who don't understand each other.Thinking of these Date Masamune's forehead twitched, he frowned and closed his eyes impatiently.

Sanada Yukimura, who immediately noticed the change in Date Masamune's expression because they were staring at each other, thought he had done something inappropriate again and was a little puzzled, and suddenly shouted: "His Masamune, I am here to toast you Yes!" It was an expression that just came to mind.

Date Masamune snorted and laughed: "Unbelievable! I thought I had to ask for your wine myself."

"I'm sorry!" Sanada Yukimura lowered his head, feeling that he was a little too big.

"Why don't you apologize for forgetting to take your wine cup." Date Masamune habitually raised his cheeks, leaned his elbows on the low table, and said casually.

Only then did Sanada Yukimura realize that he was here to toast and didn't bring his own wine cup, and finally he felt a little annoyed. Although he originally felt that he had many immaturities, he didn't expect that on such an occasion, In front of Date Masamune, he was even less thoughtful than he thought.

"Go get it here!"

Sanada Yukimura still lowered his head, he had long since lost the aura of eye-to-eye comparison with Date Masamune as soon as he came up.

"No need," Date Masamune calmly stopped Sanada Yukimura who was about to get up, "The wine cups here are enough."

Some here?Sanada Yukimura raised his head suspiciously, and looked at Date Masamune's low table, there were His Highness Masamune's and Miss Sachiko's here... Did His Highness Masamune mean to let me use Miss Sachiko's wine cup?

Realizing that he was going to use a wine cup used by women, Sanada Yukimura couldn't help but blush a little. He felt that he was too rude and embarrassed. He looked at Sachiko who had retreated to one side at the beginning. The other party just smiled and didn't mean to speak. The realization that I shouldn't interrupt at this moment.Sanada Yukimura could only think that if Date Masamune really asked that way, he would have to refuse.

Date Masamune no longer knows whether it is gratifying or sad that he knows more about Sanada Yukimura's thinking and behavior patterns than Sanada Yukimura himself.

"You use mine, I use this." Date Masamune put his own wine cup by the table, and held Sachiko's wine cup in his hand.

Sanada Yukimura, who was stunned by the words, stared straight at Sachiko's wine cup in Date Masamune's hand.Masamune wants to use Miss Sachiko's wine cup...

"...Or do you want to use this?" Date Masamune, who thought he knew Sanada Yukimura's thoughts like the back of his hand, was a little confused about Sanada Yukimura's reaction at the moment.When he thought that Sanada Yukimura might want to use Sachiko's wine cup, he was very dissatisfied and had a bad tone.

"Ah, no..." Sanada Yukimura's originally bright eyes dimmed a little, "I don't want to use Ms. Sachiko's wine cup." His Highness Masamune didn't want me to use it very much, so he specially gave me his own wine cup .

Why does Sanada Yukimura seem reluctant.Do you want to use that, Sachiko's wine cup?How could it be possible for you to use it.Who would let the person he likes use other women's things in front of him.Date Masamune, who was somewhat annoyed in his heart, didn't show much on his face, and finally just "hummed" speciously with his nose.

On the side where the two didn't pay attention, Sachiko, who had been watching from the sidelines, held back her smile until her face cramped, feeling that there seemed to be an insurmountable gap between the two adults in front of her.

Afterwards, Sachiko filled the wine cups for the two of them. Sanada Yukimura held the wine cups in both hands, raised his face, and solemnly said a few words of thanks on behalf of Kai and himself. During the process, Date Masamune felt bored so he showed no expression.Date Masamune himself felt that there was no need for such a scene between him and Sanada Yukimura—not to mention that he invited Sanada Yukimura to have selfish intentions—but after all, there were others watching, even for the sake of Sanada Yukimura’s position , this form is also to go.

However, the care that Sanada Yukimura occasionally showed when he glanced at Sachiko's wine cup in his hand, Date Masamune couldn't ignore it even when he was drinking.Could it be that Sanada Yukimura fell in love with Sachiko all of a sudden?It is because I have no experience in love that I am so easily seduced!Date Masamune knocked the wine cup on the table a little annoyed.

Sanada Yukimura was at a loss for Date Masamune's somewhat emotional actions.His Royal Highness Masamune seemed to have been in an unhappy mood since he said he wanted to toast.In retrospect, Sanada Yukimura always felt that Date Masamune was in a bad mood at the moment, compared to the incident where he forgot to toast when he came here, the incident where he forgot to bring his own wine cup, and even the incident where he spoke out earlier to stop Date Masamune from arguing with Sasuke Sasuke Sarutobi. Even more unknown.

"His Masamune, does your appearance make you feel unhappy?"

Sanada Yukimura looked straight into Date Masamune's eyes, showing his determination to get a real answer.

In this case it is equally straightforward.Date Masamune naturally knew that his obvious attitude had misunderstood Sanada Yukimura, so he met Sanada Yukimura's gaze and looked over: "...What nonsense. Will I invite people who make me feel uncomfortable?"

"Uh, yes...sorry." Sanada Yukimura, who immediately accepted Date Masamune's words, felt a little guilty for some reason.

"Speaking of which, do you still remember your situation?" Date Masamune glanced at the guests' seats, "Shouldn't you ask me that kind of thing in private?"

Only then did Sanada Yukimura remember that he was sitting next to Date Masamune's seat, being scrutinized by various eyes and guessed by various thoughts.

"hug--"

"Stop."

Sanada Yukimura wanted to apologize again but was interrupted. Date Masamune turned his head to look at him, his black hair covered his single eyes slightly with his movements, and the shadow in his eyes deepened: "Why don't I know, you never Since when did you become a shrinking guy who only apologizes, Sanada Yukimura."

If you want to say when, it started when Date Masamune invited him.Facing Date Masamune's unfamiliar side outside the battlefield, and shouldering the responsibility of representing Takeda Shingen and Kai, although Sanada Yukimura is not good at it, he always reminds himself to be cautious in his words and deeds in front of the Lord of Oshu. In this kind of diplomatic situation, thinking about how to do well with one's own affairs but never embarrassing the lord, this kind of consciousness unconsciously dominates one's words, deeds and attitudes, although deep down in one's heart is also worried about the relationship between the two of them. It was difficult to adapt to such a mode of getting along with each other, and he lost his composure several times because of this, but because it was correct and what should be done, even in the face of Date Masamune's ridicule, Sanada Yukimura never wavered: Even if His Highness Masamune seems to still go his own way, no matter what Whether it is out of consideration for one's own responsibility or for the face of His Highness Masamune, I have to care about the opinions of other guests.

Facing Sanada Yukimura who simply pursed his lips and lowered his eyes, Date Masamune couldn't help but sigh for the other party's stubbornness, but he would always be defeated by such stubbornness, and he was willing.

"Don't think too much." Date Masamune's tone softened.

Sanada Yukimura raised his eyes and saw Date Masamune's tangled and helpless expression: "Your kind of head is not suitable for thinking so much, it will only produce counterproductive effects, so please act on intuition like a beast, yousee?" Afterwards, it became like a joke again.

"His Highness Masamune... Are you saying that I am an idiot?" Sanada Yukimura asked in a daze.

"Oh, you are quite clever at this time!" Date Masamune laughed.

Looking at Date Masamune's curved left eye, Sanada Yukimura even forgot to care about being regarded as an idiot, and couldn't help but also smiled relaxedly.Masamune-sama finally smiled...

Laughed.From now until finally——Date Masamune looked at Sanada Yukimura and stopped smiling frankly, then held up the wine cup to block the corners of his lips that couldn't help but curl up.

After Sanada Yukimura went back to her seat, Sachiko sat back to her original seat, poured wine for Date Masamune and said with a light smile, "Masamune-sama, please excuse my impoliteness—you are really quite detached."

"Really? I thought I was quite restrained." Date Masamune replied casually, and glanced at Sanada Yukimura who was returning to the seat, and was immediately grabbed by Maeda Keiji's neck and said something. Sanada Yukimura had an unclear expression on his face. .Tsk, that prodigal son, is he addicted?Then Date Masamune noticed that Aoba seemed to have joined the conversation between the two of them, but he was a little annoyed by what Keiji Maeda said. Sanada Yukimura seemed to comfort Aoba with a wry smile. A little bit of anger and helplessness.Aoba... also has this kind of expression.If you just look at it from a distance, it feels like you are acting like a baby.

"Sachiko, remember when I told you to watch Aoba carefully?" Date Masamune asked suddenly.

"'Don't let anyone touch him casually'—keep it in mind, Masamune-sama," Sachiko replied submissively, and then changed his voice, "I thought you liked Aoba very much."

"You're right. I like him very much," Date Masamune smiled calmly, "I still do."

Sachiko was very puzzled: "But, you are not really—"

"You have also received a lot of care from Aoba's mother." Interrupting Sachiko, Date Masamune suppressed the smile on his face, "So do what you should do."

Is this... don't mind your own business?Although Xingzi was full of questions, she could only respond obediently: "Yes, Masamune-sama."

"Stop making trouble because the other party is younger and more beautiful than you," Date Masamune suddenly said in a teasing tone, "Could it be that 'Sachiko Hiakamikawa' also loses confidence in her own charm?"

Because of being exposed, Xingzi rarely blushed, and said coquettishly, "It's that little guy who is too unlovable, Masamune-sama!"

Date Masamune laughed: "You don't understand that, that's what makes him cute."

Sachiko didn't speak any more, but looked at Date Masamune's focused eyes on the banquet without any hesitation, and fell into thinking: Which one of the two is Masamune-sama looking at and thinking about at this moment?

"That one-eyed guy is really coming at his own pace all the time."

Sanada Yukimura couldn't agree more with Maeda Keiji's last concluding sentence.

Perhaps because of what happened just now, other people thought that Sanada Yukimura and Date Masamune had a very close relationship, and more people toasted to Sanada Yukimura, and even because the atmosphere of the banquet was already quite relaxed, some were as informal as Maeda Keiji The people who go to Sanada Yukimura will go directly to the seat to toast.Although Sanada Yukimura didn't understand what was going on, he was happy to get in touch with more famous people who were not as famous as he had met, so he would not refuse the toast.Aoba on the side couldn't help but observe Sanada Yukimura's face secretly, thinking of reminding him not to accidentally drink too much.

"I've noticed it, Sanada-sama." A general smiled meaningfully after having a drink with Sanada Yukimura.

"What are you talking about, Kato-sama?" Sanada Yukimura was puzzled.

The samurai named Kato moved his eyes to Aoba who was sitting on the other side of Sanada Yukimura, and he didn't know whether he was looking at him or admiring him: "That's why Date asked his favorite maiko to serve you. Although I heard that he is a young man , but...that's it...Nowadays, many adults are keen on the affairs of the public, so it's not surprising. It seems that Sanada-sama really has a special relationship with Date-sama."

Although Aoba is no stranger to Kato's gaze, but because he only served Date Masamune and Sanada Yukimura, he has never been so closely watched as if tasting every part of his body, while maintaining With his eyebrows lowered and his eyes closed, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.In the end, the other party said something in an ambiguous tone, which made Aoba really unable to bear Date Masamune and Sanada Yukimura being misunderstood because of him, but when he thought of the identity of the other party's guest, if he, a maiko, collided with the other party , that would make Date Masamune, the host, lose face even more, so he could only clenched his fingers and said nothing.

At this moment, Aoba felt something blocking Kato's sight in front of him, raised his eyes, and found that only the back of Sanada Yukimura could be seen in front of him.

"Master Kato, you misunderstood," came the serious voice of Sanada Yukimura, "Aoba-kun is my friend, and I asked His Highness Masamune to let the two of you have a chance to talk. In addition, please don't make unfounded guesses. It will do no good to others or to yourself."

If it were someone else, this Kato-sama would definitely think that the other party was being prudish, but facing the upright Sanada Yukimura and his understanding of Sanada Yukimura based on rumors, he could only smile a little awkwardly: "Yes I made a slip of the tongue, Sanada-sama. Please don’t mind me.”

Seeing the figure of Kato-sama leaving angrily, Aoba breathed a sigh of relief and said at the same time: "Sanada-sama, thank you."

Only then did Sanada Yukimura turn around and smiled gently: "It's nothing, after all, I'm also involved in it, not to mention that what I'm saying is the truth... Uh, basically." Scratched the back of his head.

Aoba slowly smiled, and said in a sigh-like tone: "Master Sanada...you are really a very good person."
