The boss was taken aback, then saw Artoria react. She had just thought that the clear and cute voice came from Ye Ziye's mouth, which startled her.
I didn't see it clearly just now, but the very handsome young man in front of me was carrying a very beautiful girl on his back.
People from island nations have a high tolerance for such feelings between teenagers, as if seeing the awkwardness between teenagers is like seeing their own younger selves.
Ye Ziye raised her eyes and glanced at him, but didn't say anything more. It seemed that Artoria was quite enjoying the situation.
And indeed, this was the first time Artoria had experienced what it felt like to look down at someone. Most importantly, now that she was lying on Ye Ziye's back, she could actually see her own ahoge (cowlick).
"Okay, little girl, wait a moment."
People of this age always seem to have a signature kind smile that makes them feel comfortable, or perhaps it's because Artoria is just too adorable.
"Ah."
Artoria seemed to like the smile, nodding slightly and resting her chin on Ye Ziye's shoulder.
The two waited there, Ye Ziye carefully observing how the person in front of her made takoyaki. Although she had videos of how to make it in her mind, it was always good to learn more.
"Did the little girl injure her foot?"
The aunt who was making takoyaki spoke up, then looked up at Artoria who was lying on Ye Ziye's back.
As someone from the previous generation, she didn't understand the so-called romance and fun of young people. For someone of that age, being carried on someone's back meant they must have been hurt.
Hearing this, Artoria's cute little face blushed slightly, something she rarely did, even when she was so close to Ye Ziye.
She has always been a self-reliant person, and she has never been carried like this before. She hadn't really felt it just now, but now that she's been asked this question, she really feels like a child being taken care of.
The reason she needed more care wasn't because of her injury, but because she couldn't walk in clogs.
She found it hard to say the strange reason.
"Well, I guess you could call it an injury. I'm still not used to wearing wooden clogs; my ankles always get chafed."
This time, Ye Ziye interrupted, telling a lie without batting an eye. Occasionally, he could be quite emotionally intelligent and understood Artoria's personality.
If the truth were told, she would definitely be incredibly shy.
So telling herself that a little white lie is okay is acceptable. When helping others, she could temporarily set aside her vow never to lie.
"Ye Zi, thank you..."
The soft thank you from Artoria reached Ye Ziye's ears, making them tingle slightly.
"Oh, I see. Girls do feel uncomfortable wearing wooden clogs for the first time..."
The auntie who makes takoyaki said this because Altria's foreign features were so obvious that she readily assumed he was a foreigner who had just arrived in the island nation.
"Back in the day, the first time I wore it..."
While making takoyaki, the auntie drifted into reminiscence, talking about the strange and somewhat awkward things from that era...
Ye Ziye listened silently; this was excellent material.
Artoria was the same; she simply wanted to hear it. Her ancestors were so legendary, so naturally she enjoyed listening to their stories.
Time passed slowly, the sun completely set, and darkness filled the entire sky, with only the moonlight radiating a faint glow.
However, after a while, the sky will be filled with fireworks, shining as brightly as day, and countless people will watch from various places.
The takoyaki stall was lit up with small red lights symbolizing celebration, and Ye Ziye was so blinded by the light that she could hardly open her eyes.
"Your takoyaki is ready."
The takoyaki that Artoria ordered was finally ready. Perhaps because they had been chatting well, Ye Ziye always felt that this takoyaki had more than the others.
Interpersonal relationships are awful, but Artoria seems to like them quite a bit.
"Thank you auntie."
As she said this, Artoria reached down and took the takoyaki, another novel experience.
"You are welcome."
The aunt's voice was still very kind, but this time she didn't look up. She still had work to do. After remembering her loved ones, she still had to get back to life.
Ye Ziye didn't reply. He carried Artoria to the side and decided to explore the area.
Buy some weird little snacks for Artoria, and then buy some slippers. Anyway, this girl isn't heavy, so even though I won't feel like I'm getting any benefits, it won't hurt to carry her for a while longer.
The boy and girl walked on, seemingly lost in silence, but Ye Ziye could still hear the sound of plastic bags being torn apart.
"Leaf, may I eat on your back?"
"Sure, as long as you don't drop food scraps on my head..."
Ye Ziye looked up and saw that although Artoria ate elegantly, she was prone to spilling food like a child.
Don't worry, it won't happen!
He could hear the girl's reassuring voice, but a sense of foreboding lingered in his heart.
Chapter 322
"Ye Zi, I'm sorry..."
After walking for a while, Ye Ziye kept hearing Artoria's apologetic voice.
His ominous premonition came true. At this moment, his hair was full of takoyaki, while Artoria was picking through them with her little hands.
"fine..."
Ye Ziye didn't know what to do, but he was a very good-tempered person and never lost his temper easily.
He certainly wouldn't get angry with Artoria over such a small matter now; that's not his style. But having oil stains on his head really wasn't a pleasant feeling.
"Let's not do it. I can just take a shower when I get home."
Ye Ziye shook his head. Artoria hadn't used much force, so he wasn't in any pain. But being treated like this made him feel like a lion being picked clean by a lioness.
It's a strange feeling, but Artoria's favorite animal is the lion, without a doubt. Even Garfield doesn't hold as much weight in her heart as the lion.
"Oh well..."
The voice carried a hint of self-reproach, but Ye Ziye did not offer any words of comfort, as this emotion was surely only temporary.
"Ye Zi, can I still eat?"
As he expected, it wasn't long before he heard Artoria's tentative voice again.
"can."
Ye Ziye no longer cared. Even if some of it fell into her hair, she could just wash it off when she got home. Going from zero to one and going from one to two were two completely different experiences.
"Great! I promise I won't drop anything in your hair next time I eat!"
Ye Ziye didn't take the confident assurances to heart. He could just listen to those words and leave it at that. Creatures like Altria wouldn't care about anything when they got into the mood for eating.
"I hope so..."
"Then I want to eat apple candy!"
"it is good."
Ye Ziye felt like an old father; Artoria's lively demeanor was quite different from her usual self.
He remembered that his initial impression of Artoria was that she was a cute and serious girl, but now, the latter two characteristics seemed to appear only occasionally.
When she was alone with him, she was mostly the lovely Artoria.
Lifting Altria up a bit, Ye Ziye headed towards his destination. Tonight, he would be both the laborer and the one paying.
Now Artoria has no objection whatsoever to spending his money.
"Ye Zi, when do you think the fireworks will be set off?"
Holding the candied apple, Artoria took a lick and looked at the dark sky, asking, "What do you mean?" They had been in the arena for about half an hour, and the number of people around them was increasing.
"It should be soon."
Ye Ziye continued to wander aimlessly. He figured he could just follow the crowd eventually, and for now, he wanted to see more of the place.
He doesn't come to noisy places often; he prefers quiet places, but that's when he's alone. Traveling with companions seems nice too.
However, this only applies to people you know well, and even then, you must exclude Fujiwara Chika. Going out alone with her is definitely not a wise choice.
"That's good."
After licking the apple candy again, Artoria rested her head comfortably on Ye Ziye's shoulder.
As for the dripping food scraps, there was no need to worry about them anymore. Ye Ziye had given up on them, and Artoria no longer needed to deliberately maintain anything or wholeheartedly enjoy the food.
After carrying the seemingly weightless Altria for a while, Ye Ziye finally found his target, his little belly stuffed with an unknown amount of food.
A stall selling slippers. Speaking of fireworks festivals, they are really magical places. They sell everything, just like a large trade market.
“Saber, it looks like you can get down and walk now.”
"Ok?"
Upon hearing this, Artoria raised her little head and saw the slipper stall.
For some reason, she felt a little resistant. She didn't want to get off Ye Ziye's back. After working so hard for so long, she wanted to slack off sometimes.
However, she definitely couldn't say such things aloud; that wouldn't be in line with her personality.
"Um..."
Artoria responded softly, then lowered her head and didn't say anything more.
She knew that Ye Ziye would take her there soon, and then she would be wearing slippers on her fair little feet and wouldn't be able to enjoy the air at such a height anymore.
Ye Ziye glanced at Artoria, who was perched on his shoulder, and silently headed towards the slipper shop without saying a word.
"Hello, I'd like to buy a pair of slippers."
This time, the shop owner wasn't as enthusiastic as when selling takoyaki; he was just indifferent. He wasn't surprised to see Artoria on Ye Ziye's back, as if this wasn't the first time he'd seen this.
There are always plenty of people who are happy to show their masculinity, no matter when or where.
Which one do you want?
"The blue ones."
Ye Ziye knew Artoria's preferences well; the lion pattern was her top priority, followed by blue, as the girl really liked that color.
"it is good."
