182. Getting Married (Completed)

"Burp~"
Heisei Izumi leaned back on the chair, one hand rubbing her round belly, and burped.
The delicious dishes on the table were completely devoured.
Some food that can be stored overnight can be packed in a plastic bag and placed in the refrigerator to be eaten tomorrow.
He is a person who believes in saving and avoiding waste.
Shiraishi Chizuru picked up a bottle of orange juice, shook it, and asked, "Would you like some juice?"
Thank you for your hard work.
Hirasawa Izumi nodded and watched as she poured half a cup of orange juice into her own glass, then picked it up and drank it in one gulp.
"Chizuru, let me help you clean up."
After saying that, Hakuishi's mother got up to get a storage bag, preparing to seal all these dishes.
"Thank you, mother."
After she came back, Aoi Shiraishi thanked her and took half of the plastic bag to start cleaning up.
Some of the finished plates were stacked up to be washed later.
Afterwards, the table was cleaned up and the dishes were washed, and White Stone's mother said goodbye to the two of them.
She was very considerate and knew that the time afterwards should be left for Kurose Izumi and Shirashi Chizuru.
Today is not just Christmas, but also Shirashi Chizuru's birthday.
They will definitely go out at night.
Shiromother is so sure of it.
Indeed, that's exactly how it is.
After resting at home for a while, Izumi Hase and Chiroshiromade preparations to go out.
They put on their coats, wrapped scarves around their necks, held hands, and went out together.
It's almost 8 o'clock in the evening now, and the Christmas atmosphere has been completely ignited.
The streets are decorated with lights and decorations. Many men and women are paired up, holding hands and their faces brimming with happiness and shyness.
Among these people, there is one pair that stands out.
If I have to say why, it would be their stunning beauty and the closeness between them.
"God, did this guy save the Milky Way in his previous life? He has such an adorable girlfriend."
"Damn, why do I have to hang out with another guy? I want a girlfriend too!"
Many passers-by whispered, casting occasional glances at the two of them.
To be frank, they were extremely envious!
"Quan, did you save the galaxy in your past life? Is that why you have such an adorable girlfriend?" Chihaya Shirashi listened to these voices and asked with a smile.
"Hmm? Maybe so," Izumi Hadesawa chuckled in response.
"That's right... Quan is really great."
"Haha, fool, who can explain what happened in a previous life?"
As they spoke, they walked past a row of shiny streets and arrived at the opposite side.
The Christmas atmosphere here is even stronger, and Christmas songs are playing everywhere.
Some stores even have 'Santa Claus' in front of their doors!
"Hoo..."
Ichinosezumi looks up at the clear night sky and exhales a breath of hot air.
White smoke rises slowly and dissolves into the air in less than a breath.
"Quan, it's snowing."
Baishi Qianlian also looks up at the sky and suddenly sees pure white snow falling from the sky.
They drifted and floated, landing on the crowd, tree tops, and eaves, accumulating slowly.
"We're fortunate to experience a white Christmas," said Izumi Blackie, sighing softly.
As she spoke, she reached out her other hand to catch the fluttering snowflakes.
This way, you can clearly feel the trace of snow falling.
"Hmm, it's getting a bit cold,"
Qianlian Baishi nodded and also reached out a hand to catch some snow.
She watched the snow melt in the palm of her hand, turning into a drop of water, feeling a bit emotional.
Is it true that I have been melted away by Kurosawa Izumi's kindness?
"You're cold, here, wear my coat." Kurosawa Izumi pulled out his hand, took off his coat and draped it over her.
Chiren Baiyi clutched her coat tightly and murmured, "Quan, it's very warm."
She didn't know if it was psychological or something else, but she felt her body warming up.
Then, the two of them held hands again and became closely connected to each other.
After watching the snowscape for a while, they resumed their steps and continued walking forward.
The white snowflakes fell gently on their shoulders.
If it snowed even heavier, maybe they would walk all the way to the "white head"?
"Ding ding dang, ding ding dang, the bell rings ding dang."
"Tonight skiing is so much fun, we sit on the sled."
Accompanied by Christmas songs everywhere, the two arrived in Shibuya District.
There is a lantern festival taking place here, with countless young men and women strolling around, experiencing this romantic atmosphere.
Looking ahead, the lights are colorful and ever-changing with time.
At times, they are deep blue, at times they are pale and charming in light red, and at times they turn pure white.
"So beautiful..."
Walking on Omotesando Street in Shibuya, Izumi Kurose looked around at the scenery, feeling quite touched.
The bare ginkgo trees were adorned with countless branches entwined with LED lights, making them shimmer and sparkle.
Walking in it, you find yourself beneath the blue ocean, a vibrant and colorful world.
Keep walking forward a little bit more, and you will come across a park.
Inside the park, there are a series of lantern exhibition buildings, three meters high, resembling bird gates.
On both sides, there are also light sculptures of animals such as cats and dogs.
Many people stop here and take out their phones to take photos.
Seeing this, Heisei Izumi proposed, "Let's also take a picture, shall we?"
"Um, okay." Chisato Shiranui nodded gently in agreement.
So, the two of them stood in front of the starting torii gate lantern display and took out their phones to take pictures.
"Come a little closer..."
As Hazuki Kurahashi looked at the camera, he felt that even though their shoulders were touching, it still wasn't close enough.
In the next moment, he felt a warm and soft touch on his cheek.
Crack-
Instinctively, he pressed the shutter button, capturing this moment and turning it into eternity.
Hezse Izumi put down one hanging hand and smiled bitterly, "Oh my, if someone sees this, they might curse me again..."
Well, typical afterthought, saying one thing but meaning another.
Clearly not rejecting, but actually quite happy about it.
"Hehe, understanding a girlfriend's capriciousness, isn't that what a boyfriend should do?" Chiran Shiratama chuckled lightly, knowing that he was trying to cover up his embarrassment.
"I really lost to you."
Hatsuse Izumi smiled helplessly, but she felt sweet in her heart.
As Shirashi Chikara said, understanding her willful and unreasonable behavior is what she should do.
Having such an adorable girlfriend, I naturally hold my breath for fear of losing her and hold her carefully for fear of letting her slip away.
"From now on, I will tightly grasp Qiu's future life, okay?"
"Then please hold onto me tightly."
"During the time spent in the park, the snowflakes falling became larger and the temperature gradually dropped."
"Without a coat, Izumi Hase shivered uncontrollably when a gust of cold wind passed by."
Chiaki Shirai clearly noticed this small gesture and suggested, "Quan, let's find a place to take shelter from the snow."
"Hmm, alright. After all, snow will melt into water. Maybe if we keep walking, our shoes will get wet," responded Quan.
Hirasawa Izumi nodded, knowing that Shiotsuki Chizuru was concerned about her.
After leaving the park, the two arrived at a... hotel?!
Yes, that's right, a hotel – a magnificent, luxurious hotel!
"Well... if it's just to avoid the snow."
At first, Kurose Izumi didn't want to go into the hotel, but the snow outside was heavy, so there was no choice.
Afterward, they entered the hotel and chose a not-so-cheap luxury suite.
This suite is very spacious, probably around 100 square meters.
Not only that, it also has a separate dressing room, bathroom, and toilet!
When you enter the room, the heating is already turned on, it should be on all day long.
And the purpose of doing so is to allow people to check in at any time and to have a better experience.
Momochi Chiaki took off her shoes and entered the room, hanging her bag on the coat rack, and sat down on the European-style sofa.
"Warm and cozy, it's so nice..."
Hei Sei Sen, enjoying the warmth seeping into his body, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and pulled back the curtains, gazing at the Christmas night view of Tokyo.
The suite they were staying in was on a high floor, on the thirteenth floor, so standing by the window and overlooking the night view gave a feeling of being able to see everything beneath them."
At this moment, Tokyo is covered in heavy snow, and under it, the towering buildings and streets are all adorned with dazzling lights, creating a scene of radiant beauty.
"Hoo..."
Heisei Izumi exhaled, forming a layer of mist on the window, immediately causing 'Tokyo' to become blurred.
However, the mist quickly disappears as it is melted by the heating, and 'Tokyo' regains its brilliance and splendor.
After watching for a while, Izumi Hoshikawa turns from the floor-to-ceiling window and sits down on the soft, cloud-like sofa.
At that moment, he only felt a sense of relief both physically and mentally.
Shiranui Chizuru turned her head to look at the relaxed expression on Kurosawa Izumi's face and asked softly, "Izumi, do you want to take a bath?"
"Huh? That's not necessary." Izumi Kurosawa shook his head, thinking that he hadn't reached the point of being that cold yet.
At most, he just feels a bit stiff, but this problem is well solved by indoor heating.
"Why not take a shower? Your body will warm up faster. It's freezing outside, you know?"
After being rejected, Chien Rei Shirai still persists.
Obviously, he has ulterior motives.
Hei Sei Izumi also understands this and becomes cautious.
"Chien Rei, just say what you want to do."
"I didn't have any intentions, I was just genuinely worried about Izumi." Chizuru Shirasagi feigned innocence, blinking her clear, bright eyes that were as translucent as black gems.
"I don't believe you, you must have wanted to barge in while I was showering, right?" Izumi Kurose sneered, voicing his suspicions.
And this guess is probably not far off from the truth.
Because that's the kind of person Shi Sen Thousand Pity is.
"Who knows..."
Shi Sen Thousand Pity chuckled mysteriously, neither confirming nor denying it.
This reaction confirmed to Kurose Izumi that she was indeed thinking that way!
"Hmph, go ahead and try to lock it, I don't believe you can still get in..."
With a cold hum, he got up from the sofa and walked towards the bathroom, muttering to himself as he walked.
"Hmph..."
Miyuki Shiota watched as Izumi Kurose entered the bathroom and closed the door with a heavy thud, revealing a smirk laden with meaning.
She then took out a golden key from her pocket and played with it in her hand.
——
"Hmph, I don't believe anyone can come in."
Heiye Quan entered the spacious bathroom and locked the door tightly. He even checked several times to make sure it was locked before finally feeling relieved.
So, he took off his clothes and hung them on a hanger, filled the ceramic white bathtub with hot water, and waited quietly.
And when the water was halfway full, he stepped into the hot water and let out a satisfied sigh.
On a long snowy winter night, taking a hot bath is such a blissful thing...
Crack-
But this bliss is shattered after the sound of the doorknob turning...
Black Sawa Izumi, who was originally enjoying the tranquility with closed eyes, heard the crisp sound and suddenly opened his eyes, instinctively stood up and wanted to block the door.
Unfortunately, if this was his home bathroom, it would probably work.
But this is the bathroom in the luxury suite, spacious enough that the bathtub is about seven or eight steps away from the door!
Just as Kurose Izumi stood up, causing a rush of hot water, he clearly saw the doorknob turning down!
Helpless, he turned around and dipped himself into the hot water, his face filled with indignation.
This is not only a malicious act towards Shian Chilian, but also a threat to the hotel's security!
How could it be locked? Anyone can still come in?
Then you should just not design a deadbolt feature!
In case someone stays in such a suite and encounters a criminal incident, and seeks refuge in the bathroom to call for help, but the criminal effortlessly unlocks the door, what should be done in that situation?
"Quan, let me help you rub your back."
After a ghost-like voice echoed like a chorus of birds singing in an empty valley, the door slowly pushed open.
Amidst the billowing white mist, there was a faint and graceful figure, pushing aside the mist and walking towards the depths.
Hearing the footsteps echoing behind her, Izumi Kurose instinctively covered her body with her hands.
Gritting his teeth, he said, "Kanzuki, I don't want your help with my back rubbing! Get out!"
"Quan, you are so ambiguous."
黑濑泉下意识地大吼道：“我真不要！快出去！”
“……？！”
白石千怜楞了一瞬，随即脸色恢复如常。
但她本在向前的脚步，却不知怎么的，顿住了。
“……抱歉，泉。”
在这声道歉下，白石千怜退出浴室，将门给关上。
这时，黑濑泉也骤然回过神来，埋怨自己究竟做了什么！
他竟然以那种恼怒的姿态，吼了白石千怜！
明明，白石千怜也只是想在这幸福的节日里，做一些幸福的事。
其实他并不是排斥，只是还有必须要做的事，所以暂时不能和白石千怜结合。
“唉，出去了好好道个歉吧，希望不会破坏了气氛，明明这该是充满回忆和幸福的一天啊……”
在蒸腾的雾气中，黑濑泉叹了口气，口中呢喃自语着。
洗完澡后，他向白石千怜诚恳道歉，称刚才不应该凶她、吼她的。
白石千怜嘴上说着没事，但脸色却明显的有了一分失落。
或许，在这幸福的日子里，发生反常的事，令她变得不安起来了吧？
再一个就是……
黑濑泉还没有送她圣诞、生日礼物！
明明之前说过，会送一份最特别的礼物。
虽说白石千怜并不是那种浪漫主义，但她一直期待着，期待着……
外边的飘雪，不知何时起就停了。
黑濑泉看了眼墙上的挂钟，出声提议：“要不我们走吧？现在十点了，时间不早了。”
“嗯，走吧。”白石千怜神情平静地点点头，来到衣帽架前，将包重新挎着。
随后，两人从酒店离开，重新走在寒冷萧瑟的街道上。
这时的黑濑泉，开始变得紧张起来。
因为要做那种事，只有在这段回家的路上了！
但他又苦于气氛低迷，不敢开口。
故此，黑濑泉随口道：“今天就要过去了啊。”
"Understood."
白石千怜轻轻点头，声音听不出喜怒。
“……”
黑濑泉不由得陷入沉默，心里默默思考着什么。
“泉。”
在某一刻，白石千怜停下脚步，轻轻拉住了黑濑泉的衣袖。
不知不觉间，黑濑泉就走在前头，而他却丝毫没有注意到白石千怜停下脚步！
以往，他总是会在一瞬间就察觉到白石千怜的微小反应。
"You..."
白石千怜翕动着嘴唇，想说什么，泪水却滴滴答答掉了下来。
在开口想要质问黑濑泉的那一刻，她瞬间就被翻涌起来的情绪击垮！
There's no way.
今晚的黑濑泉太反常了。
会抗拒她、吼她、凶她、没再把目光看向她，而且还一直是心不在焉的状态。
“千怜，你怎么哭了啊！”眼见白石千怜落泪，黑濑泉顿时慌了，也变得手足无措起来。
“你……是不是腻了啊！”
白石千怜攥紧双手，以不顾一切的气势，将这句能够压垮她的话吼出。
同时间，她的泪水也瞬间决堤，晶莹的泪水顺成一条线，绝美地划过脸颊。
“不……不是，为什么这么说啊？”黑濑泉大脑发蒙，完全不知道自己哪腻了。
"What do you think?"
“我……不知道啊？”
“果然，变了吗……”
白石千怜失落地喃喃自语着，霎时间的心痛感，令她几欲窒息。
“不对！不对不对！”
黑濑泉拼命地摇头，双手抓住白石千怜的肩膀，大声道：“我没有变！我爱你啊！千怜！”
Hehe...
白石千怜凄惨地笑着：“那为什么，会没有给我的生日礼物、圣诞礼物呢？不是说让我期待着，会给我最棒的礼物吗？”
“又为什么，要吼我，不在乎我了呢？”
“明明看的出来，我不高兴了吧？”
“也没有好好看着我了，从酒店出来后，一直心不在焉。”
听着白石千怜的话，黑濑泉焦急、发蒙的大脑，渐渐冷静下来。
原来，是一场误会啊。
"Haha..."
黑濑泉不由得笑了起来，心想自己还真是个无药可救的笨蛋，竟然因为犹豫，而伤到了白石千怜。
"What are you laughing at?"
白石千怜见他笑了，大为不解，心想自己的话，有那么好笑吗？
“我啊，在笑自己的女朋友，还真是可爱呢。”
“……”
白石千怜闹别扭地瞥过头，珉紧樱唇。
见此，黑濑泉深吸了口气，似是下定某种决心般，语气坚定道：“千怜，看着我。”
“……不要。”白石千怜沉默了会后，闹别扭地摇了摇头。
这是她少见的拒绝了黑濑泉。
不过黑濑泉并不气恼。
他说：“千怜，看着我吧，我有件东西想要给你，这也是我给你的生日礼物。”
白石千怜闻言，身体轻轻地颤抖了一下。
随即，她不情不愿地将头转过，看向面前的黑濑泉。
在她眼中，黑濑泉放开了手，往后退了一步。
而后，从大衣口袋里拿出一个精致的小盒子，单膝下跪！
白石千怜情不自禁地睁大眼睛，双手掩住嘴巴。
在她不可置信的注视下，黑濑泉神情庄重地打开盒子。
在这里面，有两枚通体银色，缭绕着繁复花纹的戒指——这是纹有白桔梗的戒指，寓意永恒的爱。
“千怜，请——和我结婚吧！”
黑濑泉以最真挚的语气，许下最为郑重的承诺，脸色没有比这一刻还要认真的时候！
“泉……”
对于这一突如其来的求婚，白石千怜显得有些愣神，仍处于茫然失措的状态。
“泉，从今往后，也请多关照白石千怜这不成熟的妻子了。”
梦，成真了。
“千怜，我爱你。”
黑濑泉拿出其中一枚戒指，拉起白石千怜的左手，缓缓套在无名指上。
“千怜，以后你再也跑不掉了，只会属于我一个人。”
“嗯，我是属于泉的，一切。”
白石千怜幸福地点点头，借着路灯与月光，看着无名指上那枚，闪烁着银光的戒指。
之后，黑濑泉也为自己的无名指戴上戒指，重新站起身来。
那一刻，白石千怜骤然扑入他怀中，双拳捶打着他，哭嚎道：“吓死我了你！”
“泉，以后不要在这样了！”
“我真的……真的以为你不爱我了啊！”
“知不知道我有多难过，多不安啊！”
“……笨蛋泉！绝对不要原谅你！要恨你一辈子！一辈子都不放过你啊！”
听着白石千怜的抱怨，黑濑泉合上眼，伸手环抱住她颤抖着的身体，温柔细语道：
“请不要放过我，一辈子都缠着我。”
“我们是白与黑、泉与石，是对立的哦？”
“所以，一辈子都在一起吧，因为我爱你，已经爱到无法自拔了。”
飘雪的天空，纷纷扬扬地落在两人身上，将他们染成了白头。
幸福的圣诞夜，幸福的美梦成真了。
两人幸福地笑着，幸福地落泪，幸福的相拥。
“我能重生，和你遇见，真是太好，太好了。”
——
「和你相遇的那个春天，」
「自那之后，经历了多少四季轮回，岁月流转，又是一个新的春天，」
「随着那惹人怜爱的花朵降临——」
许多年后的某一个春日上午，一阵春风裹带着一朵粉红色的花瓣，从半敞开的窗户吹进。
它飘飘荡荡的，落在一张书桌上。
桌前，坐着一个戴着眼镜，气质温婉、容貌美丽动人的女性。
在她面前，有一本合上的书，一侧又有两个装有照片的相框。
相框里，一张是穿着婚纱照的男女的合照，他们脸上洋溢着幸福的笑容。
另一张，则还是他们的，只不过他们看起来更加成熟了一点，中间又多了个可爱的小女孩。
“千怜，吃饭了！别老沉迷写小说了，注意身体！我怜手都洗好，就等你了！”
“就是就是，妈妈太慢啦！”
“我知道了，泉还是一如既往的爱担心人呢。我怜也是，明明开学后就是小学生了，还这么吵吵闹闹的……”
桌前的女性笑着回应，一手抚着自己那微微隆起的肚子，起身离开书房。
窗外，又是一阵春风吹来，带进许多粉红色的花瓣。
放置在桌上的书，随着躁动的风，哗啦啦地翻着页。
某一刻，风停了，纸张翻动的声音也停了下来。
它停在了最后一页。
夹杂着柔嫩的花瓣，那里醒目的写着——
书名：「My Desk Mate Turns Out to Be My Yandere Reader」
作者：「黑濑千怜、黑濑泉」
特别鸣谢：「平泽真武、平泽佳、稻荷雪、古见惠」
——本书，完。
