"And, did Miku cook because she wanted to hear praise from others?"
Miku immediately shook her head.
He continued.
"I ate the food you made, and I said it was bad because it wasn't good, but I was very happy because it was you, Miku, who cooked it for me."
"Being unable to do it and not going to visit are two completely different things."
Miku tilted her head slightly to look at Xia Yan, only to see his gaze sweep over her, as if he were talking to her cushion.
She finally smiled.
"I didn't do it for you..."
Then he quickly got up, took a drink from the refrigerator, and handed it to him in a fawning manner.
It was clearly meant to make him wash away the unhealthy, rotten taste of food residue with the flavor of the beverage.
Xia Yan looked at Miku, who was deliberately acting in a fawning manner, ignored the drink she offered, and went to the kitchen to find two buckets of instant noodles.
Miku's gloomy, frozen expression instantly transformed into a bright smile upon seeing what Natsuhiko was holding.
Xia Yan opened the instant noodle package and handed it out.
"Miku must not have eaten properly. I'm hungry too, so could you make me some instant noodles?"
Judging from Miku's behavior, she definitely didn't have time or the mental barrier to eat Nino's meal just now, which means she hadn't eaten and was on an empty stomach.
"I'll go boil some water right now!"
Without asking why Xia Yan didn't cook a meal himself, Miku nodded, her eyes meeting Xia Yan's without looking away.
Boil the water and bring over the ham.
Open all the ham, seasoning packets, and oil packets.
Pour in boiling water.
"Mmm—it smells delicious!"
Miku took a deep breath of the steam that smelled like instant noodles and sat quietly next to Natsuhiko.
Xia Yan stared intently at the instant noodles, as if they contained some special treasure.
In no time at all.
Miku then shoveled the instant noodles and chopsticks over.
He took it, picked up the instant noodles from the bowl with his chopsticks, and put them in his mouth.
good to eat!
Instant noodles are timeless, a bowl of them will last forever.
On the other side, Miku also started to make her move.
Xia Yan finished his instant noodles in a few bites, then stared at Miku's face, which had turned rosy from the heat.
"Look, even if you can't cook, instant noodles are fine, and they taste good too."
A warm current welled up from the bottom of Miku's heart, and the feeling of "being moved" spread throughout her heart and brain.
The grievances I felt earlier have completely vanished, and all other emotions have disappeared without a trace.
Simultaneously.
Miku also understood why she had come here now.
It turns out that she had subconsciously come to rely on Xia Yan. Xia Yan knew her secret and taught her about the historical generals she liked. The two of them played games happily together.
There were no other words to express my feelings.
"that's true!"
Miku understood and excitedly echoed his sentiment.
The hand that was scooping the noodles trembled involuntarily, splashing a few drops of noodle soup.
By sheer coincidence, it fell into his hands.
"It's very hot, isn't it!"
Miku asked with a serious expression.
Just as Xia Yan was about to shake his head, Miku grabbed his right hand and brought it to her lips, then gently pursed her lips.
"Let me blow on it for you!"
"It's not hot anymore, is it?"
Xia Yan's expression shifted slightly.
He hadn't felt the heat at all, but Miku's unique scent felt like a tickle, and things started to get worse.
Hearing Miku's question.
Xia Yan nodded in agreement.
"At least one thing was done right."
Zero Three Nine happily withdrew her hands from Xia Yan's, then calmed down and finished off the remaining instant noodles.
After finishing her instant noodles, Miku cleaned up all the dishes and chopsticks before returning to the living room.
If it were in the past, Miku would definitely have gotten up and left by now, but for some reason, she wanted to continue sitting down and talking with Natsuhiko.
"Yan, what type of girl do you like?"
Somehow.
Miku asked that question.
After asking the question, she immediately regretted it. She never expected to ask such a question, and her voice was so weak and unsteady. Wasn't this just a disguised confession?
She panicked for a moment, as if her inner thoughts had been exposed.
Xia Yan spoke in a gentle tone.
"I like pretty girls!"
He blinked and looked at Miku.
Upon hearing this answer, Miku remembered Natsuhiko's title of "Harem King" at school.
Yes.
This was the declaration we made when we transferred schools together that day.
Recalling Xia Yan's boastful words that day, Miku bit her lip, suppressing her laughter.
"Miku is a beautiful girl too, she's my type!"
Xia Yan could clearly sense that Miku's feelings for him seemed to have reached a critical point, and she seemed to be struggling to suppress them. Taking advantage of this rare opportunity to be alone, he also wanted to take things further with Miku.
Chapter 75 Aranaika
Miku rarely shows dramatic changes in expression. Most of the time, she appears calm and indifferent, as if she doesn't care much about her surroundings.
Xia Yan usually judges her emotions through her eyes and subtle movements.
But now.
Xia Yan finished speaking.
Miku's outward composure or indifference had completely vanished.
Her exhalations were short and shallow.
Her fingertips trembled.
Her face clearly showed her shyness.
Xia Yan took a step forward.
Miku trembled slightly as he approached, but Natsuhiko remained unmoved. The atmosphere was perfect, and he couldn't afford to show any mercy.
He walked to a distance where their noses touched.
"So tell me, does Miku like me?"
Seeing the other person's panicked and uneasy eyes, Xia Yan approached step by step.
As a result, Miku lowered her head, clenched her hands tightly on her knees, and soon made a sound like a cat.
"I...I like..."
This is the limit of what she can say right now.
then.
Finally feeling shy, Miku hurriedly stood up from the sofa.
"I'm going to wash my face."
She felt her face burning and quickly said something.
"No need, I'll go and run a hot bath for you."
Xia Yan then stood up.
Brand new shower gel, shampoo, towels... Xia Yan quickly prepared all these things.
Miku couldn't bring herself to say, "I'm going back."
Miku fell silent as if in a daze, quietly watching Natsuhiko's back as he prepared the hot water.
The water vapor rose up quickly.
For no apparent reason, Miku thought of Plato.
It is said that this philosopher named Plato advocated Platonic love, which refers to the connection between the spirit and the personality. If she stayed here in the earlier stages, she was naturally not going to proceed to the second stage.
Xia Yan's actions also indicate that he wants to undergo the first stage of the trial.
......
Xia Yan turned around and went back to the balcony, opened the window, and turned his attention to the astronomical telescope.
