Natsume Takashi's Youth Love Song

Natsume was resting, but Reiko hadn't rested yet.

"It's shameful. It's really too shameful."

Hiding in her room, Lingzi really felt that she was too embarrassed.

She had found Sayuri's home, but... embarrassingly, she didn't have the courage to go in because her home was too luxurious.

Then, Reiko, who suffers from social phobia, feels that she cannot take a step forward and dares to go to Sayuri's house and look for Sayuri.

Chapter 72: Embarrassing Reiko

In the end, Reiko still didn't have the courage to step into Sayuri's house and invite her... In the end, Reiko left Sawamura in shame and fled back to her "home".

"It's so embarrassing. How am I going to meet Natsume tomorrow? How am I going to tell him about this? He will laugh at me, right? He will definitely laugh at me, right?"

Thinking of Natsume laughing at her, Reiko felt more and more helpless.

What else could she say?

"Forget it, it's embarrassing."

Helpless, Lingzi finally lowered her head. What else could she say?

"Hehehe, if this guy Natsume goes too far, don't blame me for being rude."

Lingzi was seen waving her fist with great vigor and had a very dangerous expression on her face.

She had decided that if Natsume went too far, don't blame her, she would definitely punch him hard.

Thinking of this, Lingzi became calm and slept peacefully.

Reiko slept peacefully, and Natsume, because of Reiko's threat, subconsciously jumped in his sleep, looking very nervous.

…………Dividing line…………

Early the next morning.

Although he was startled awake in the middle of the night, Natsume fell asleep quickly because of physical fatigue. In this way, his body, which had been working hard all day, could have a good rest and recover.

Before eating, Natsume tidied up the house first and placed the tatami cushions in front of the stove. It would be more convenient to sit like this in the future.

At the same time, place the small refrigerator in a relatively high place to avoid excessive moisture underneath, and also connect it to electricity.

Although there is nothing in the refrigerator now, he is ready to go shopping to prepare for the party in the evening.

"Natsume!!!"

As a result, just when Natsume had just tidied up the house, Reiko's shouting came from outside.

"Reiko? Why is she here so early?"

After hearing Reiko's voice, Natsume couldn't help but show a hint of curiosity, but he still walked out.

When Natsume walked out of the house, he saw Reiko standing outside the fence, waving at him with a smile.

"Reiko? Why are you here so early?"

Natsume walked over and opened the fence door for Reiko, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Isn't there anything else? That's why I wanted to come and see you."

Lingzi said with a smile, and then raised the things in her hand, "Look, I also prepared breakfast for you."

"And breakfast?"

After hearing that there was breakfast, Natsume instinctively realized that something was wrong. Based on his understanding of Reiko, there was definitely something wrong here.

Otherwise, how could Lingzi take the initiative to bring him breakfast?

In particular, Natsume noticed that the breakfast Reiko brought him was bought at a convenience store? This is even more weird, right?

Natsume took two steps back and looked at Reiko in front of him with a little caution.

"Hey? Natsume, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing Natsume not taking the breakfast she gave him but instead retreating first, Reiko couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, unable to react.

By the way, Natsume shouldn't have discovered my intentions, right?

You know, she hasn't said anything yet?

"Lingzi, you took the initiative to bring me breakfast, and it was bought outside. Do you have any intentions?"

Natsume said while looking at Reiko warily.

"!!!"

"How did you know?"

Reiko blurted out.

Then, she realized something was wrong. She hadn't said anything yet, so how did Natsume know her thoughts?

"really!"

After hearing Reiko's words, Natsume showed an expression of "as expected". It was just as he had guessed. Reiko must have done something to be so affectionate.

"Tell me, Lingzi, what bad thing have you done?"

Natsume still didn't take the breakfast from Reiko, but asked first.

"Eat it with confidence."

Seeing Natsume's nervous look, Reiko rolled her eyes at him and directly stuffed the breakfast in her hand into his.

"Don't worry, I haven't done anything wrong. I just didn't complete your request."

Reiko then began to explain.

"You didn't complete my request? What do you mean?"

Natsume, who was eating breakfast, was a little unresponsive after hearing Reiko's words. He didn't know what Reiko meant.

"It's...it's about inviting Sayuri."

Lingzi said embarrassedly.

"What? I thought it was something else?"

After hearing this, Natsume was completely relieved. As for things like this, there was nothing to worry about.

Then, Natsume began to eat breakfast with confidence.

Natsume talked about this matter after finishing breakfast.

"So, what was the treat? Was it Reiko that you didn't find Sawamura's house?"

"No, it's not that I didn't find it. I did find Sayuri's house, but I didn't dare to go in... After all, I have a bit of social phobia."

Lingzi said a little embarrassedly.

"Is that so?"

After hearing this, Natsume nodded.

Natsume understood Reiko's situation, because when he met Reiko, he could see that she really didn't have a single friend.

No, it should be even more exaggerated than this. There is not even a single person who can speak.

From these circumstances, it is understandable that Reiko would not dare to go to Sayuri's house.

"How about we go to Sawamura's house later and invite him?"

Natsume suggested to Reiko.

I think if two of them were together, Lingzi wouldn't be afraid, right?

"Okay, this is totally fine."

Reiko nodded quickly.

If the two of them were together, she wouldn't have to worry at all.

"However, as a punishment for you, Reiko, before inviting Sawamura, please go shopping with me and help me carry my things."

Natsume looked at Reiko and gave her a wicked smile.

He was originally worried that he wouldn't be able to carry so many things by himself. But now, Lingzi has come to him on her own initiative.

Isn't this a ready-made worker?

"what?!"

After hearing what Natsume said, Reiko widened her eyes, looked at Natsume in disbelief, and pointed at herself, "How dare you order the great Reiko around?"

Chapter 73 It's Not Excessive at All

"What? Natsume, you dare to order me, the great Reiko, to help you carry vegetables? Aren't you going too far?"

Reiko widened her eyes and looked at Natsume in disbelief.

"Is it too much? I don't think so."

Natsume smiled brightly, "Besides, you can't just eat for free, right?"

"Well……"

Reiko didn't know what to say about what Natsume said, but she also knew that she was indeed the one who failed in this matter.

"Forget it, forget it. I'll just help you carry your things. Who made me fail to complete the invitation?"

Reiko sighed helplessly.

"now it's right."

Seeing Reiko agree, Natsume showed a satisfied smile, then patted Reiko's shoulder, "Don't worry, I won't let you do it in vain. I will prepare delicious food for you in the evening."

"Really?"

When Lingzi heard this, her eyes lit up instantly. If you talk about this, she won’t be sleepy anymore, right?

"Of course it's true. I wouldn't say anything nonsense about such a thing."

Natsume smiled and nodded.

"Ahem. I'll look forward to it a little bit then."

Lingzi nodded in satisfaction and smiled.

Then, the two of them walked into the city together.

Because they needed to buy ingredients, preferably better ones, Natsume and Reiko went to the nearby food street. There, the nearby restaurants also purchased their ingredients here, so the ingredients here were definitely good enough.

Of course, since Natsume had already asked Zhuo for help last night, he had no shortage of fish and mushroom ingredients. All he needed was some high-quality meat.

"This beef is good. Give me a piece."

“This chicken is also very good and can be made into skewers.”

"This shrimp is also OK. It can be made into tempura."

"..."

Under Natsume's guidance, Reiko had more ingredients in her hands, and of course, more bags.

Seeing this, Lingzi couldn't help but feel conflicted.

It's really a bit confusing.

Because she realized that she was the only one holding the ingredients. Where was Natsume's hand? Why was there nothing in it?

However, the thought that these ingredients would become delicious food at night and then enter her mouth made Lingzi feel conflicted again.

"What's wrong? Reiko, what are you thinking about?"

After selecting the ingredients he wanted, Natsume stood up, took most of the bag from Reiko, and looked at her curiously.

"Ah, it's okay, it's okay."

Reiko shook her head, then looked at her hands and found that a lot of things had been taken away by Natsume, so what was there for her to worry about?

"What? Have you bought everything?"

Reiko asked Natsume.
