Natsume Takashi's Youth Love Song

After hearing what Natsume said, she suddenly realized that she really didn't need to worry about survival anymore.

Now, has she achieved a leap in her life in an instant?

"Thank you, Natsume. I'll think about it."

Reiko immediately thanked Natsume.

Because if it weren't for Natsume's reminder, she probably wouldn't have realized it.

"If you need anything, whether it's me or Sawamura, we'll help you. Don't hesitate."

Natsume looked at Reiko seriously.

"I will. If there is a real need, I will definitely not let you two big dogs go."

Reiko smiled brightly.

"Ah."

Natsume looked relieved as he saw Reiko agreed.

During the day, nothing unexpected happened as usual, and everything was as uneventful as before.

Then, after school, Natsume and Reiko returned home together.

After dinner, Natsume left home to go out to work, leaving Reiko alone at home.

"Natsume is out working, is he a bit bored?"

After Natsume left, Reiko was left alone in the house, and she felt bored.

Although Lingzi also wanted to go out to work, she really couldn't find any suitable job opportunities.

It would be better to do it like delivering newspapers, simple and without too much burden. Even if something unexpected happens, she will be able to pay the compensation.

After thinking about it, Lingzi stopped thinking about this question because she really couldn't think of it.

"So...what should I do now?"

Reiko blinked and thought of her own house, which had not yet been built.

"Forget it, forget it. Building a house is really too tiring. I still have to deliver newspapers tomorrow morning and go to school. If I'm too tired, I won't be able to get up tomorrow. So let's forget about building a house."

Lingzi shook her head immediately.

Apparently the idea of ​​building the house at night was abandoned.

"As for building a house, let's wait until the weekend."

Then, Reiko lay lazily on her bed.

At ten o'clock, Natsume left the store where he worked and returned to his home.

From a distance, Natsume saw a house with lights on. It was obvious that Reiko was still awake and waiting for him.

"It feels really good to have someone waiting for me at home."

A slight smile appeared on Natsume's face.

This really gave him a sense of home.

Chapter 147 Natsume, Stupid

"Someone is waiting for me at home. Lingzi is waiting for me to come back..."

Thinking of this, Natsume felt even warmer in his heart.

But then, a thought suddenly flashed through Natsume's mind.

"Speaking of which... Reiko is waiting for me to come back from work at night. Why does this scene give me the feeling of a wife waiting for her husband to come back after a hard day's work?"

Natsume, realizing what was happening, couldn't help but blink.

His face gradually turned rosy.

Natsume was a little shy.

After all, Natsume is still just a child, at most a high school student. If he suddenly thinks about marriage and a wife, even Natsume would feel embarrassed.

But fortunately, Natsume was the only one here, and Reiko was still waiting at home, so no one noticed the abnormality on Natsume's face.

Shaking his head, putting aside the messy thoughts in his head, Natsume quickly calmed himself down.

After regaining his composure, Natsume walked towards his home.

"Crack!"

opened the door.

"I am back."

He whispered that he was back.

Natsume was rarely careful because he was worried that Reiko had fallen asleep.

"Natsume, you're back?"

However, Reiko is also a night owl. When Natsume came back, Reiko was still sitting on the sofa in a daze.

And after seeing Natsume coming back, he quickly stood up.

"Yawn~~~"

Lingzi stood up and yawned subconsciously, obviously feeling a little sleepy.

Seeing this, Natsume looked at Reiko with even gentler eyes.

"Are you sleepy? Go and rest early. You don't have to wait for me in the future. Just leave a light on here."

Natsume looked at Reiko and spoke in a gentle tone.

"It's okay. I can't sleep so early, so I'd better wait for you to come back, Natsume."

Lingzi said with a smile, and then showed a sly expression, "Besides, if I go to bed so early, when you come back, Natsume, if you want to do something to me, then I won't be able to find out at all? How dangerous would that be?"

"Uh……"

Natsume, who was originally very moved by Reiko's words, twitched his mouth after hearing this, revealing a speechless expression.

He rolled his eyes at Lingzi in annoyance.

"Reiko, am I such a person in your eyes?"

There is no way he would do such a thing.

"Hehehe, just a joke."

Looking at Natsume's expression, Reiko smiled and said that she was just joking. She actually knew that if it were Natsume, he would never do such a thing.

Although she has only known Natsume for a short time, Reiko is confident in her heart.

"but……"

At this time, Reiko suddenly lengthened her tone, attracting Natsume's attention.

"However, if it's Natsume, if he really wants to do something to me, it's fine. I...I won't resist."

After saying this, Reiko showed a shy expression.

"..."

However, facing the shy Reiko, Natsume just laughed.

"Yeah, Reiko, you won't resist. At most you'll just beat me with a baseball bat, right?"

Natsume rolled his eyes at Reiko in annoyance.

Humph, doesn’t he know what Lingzi is thinking?

"Huh? You actually found out, Natsume?"

Reiko showed a hint of surprise, obviously not expecting that Natsume would discover her purpose?

"Humph, of course."

Natsume showed a smug expression.

"Okay, don't stand here anymore, go and rest."

Looking at the time, he found that it was almost eleven o'clock, so Natsume quickly signaled Reiko to go to rest.

"I know, I know, Natsume, you should also go to bed early."

Reiko nodded and turned to walk towards her room.

However, just as Reiko was about to enter her room, she suddenly stopped, turned her head and looked at Natsume.

"Natsume!"

"what happened?"

Natsume, who was about to take a shower, looked at Reiko in confusion, wondering why she was calling him.

"Natsume, idiot."

After leaving these words, Lingzi closed the door.

"Hey???"

Natsume was stunned when he saw this scene. What was going on with Reiko's reaction?

"Why did Reiko call me stupid? Could it be that..."

A thought flashed through Natsume's mind and he realized something.

After thinking of that possibility, Natsume's mind began to wander.

Inevitably, he thought of some restricted scenes. After all, he was also an adolescent boy, so he would have such thoughts sometimes.

"No, no, no, Reiko was just joking. She was definitely joking."

After a while, Natsume quickly shook his head and regained his composure.

He quickly walked into the bathroom, ready to calm himself down.

What Natsume didn't know was that all his actions were seen by Reiko.

At this time, Reiko was looking at Natsume through the gap in the bamboo door, and all of Natsume's actions just now were seen by Reiko.

"Natsume... isn't really made of wood, is he?"

Reiko looked at Natsume's reaction and showed a satisfied expression.

From this point of view, she is not without charm at all, right?

Then, Lingzi, feeling satisfied, lay down on her bed and prepared to rest.

But Lingzi, who was originally very sleepy, found that after lying on the bed, she suddenly couldn't sleep anymore, and kept thinking about what had just happened.

At this time, Lingzi suddenly realized that she had become very different after living here compared to before?

"I seem to be...becoming bolder?"

Reiko placed the hand on her chest and felt her heartbeat.

"Is it because of Sayuri? So I'm... anxious?"

Reiko thought subconsciously.

She found that there was a trace of possessiveness in her heart? Otherwise, how to explain her behavior?

Reiko knew exactly what her feelings for Natsume were.

It should be a vague liking, but it has not reached the level of love... It was only because of Sayuri that she started to take the initiative.

This was clearly not something she should do, but Lingzi found that she did not feel any hesitation or resistance in her heart.
