Dating sim loading: My girlfriend is a cunning young lady Chapter 653 653: 292. Rainy Season (4)2

"Not much," Jiutiao ijie spoke casually and with ease, "just that you said sothing exactly like what my mother would say."

The pressure on his hand grew.

"Mother and son share a special bond, sothing you can't understand as a girlfriend right now," Dubian Che said, then turned his head to Mrs. Jiutiao, "Right, dear Mother?"

"Mother? Where is the Mother?" Jiutiao Zhenji looked around, "Where could Mother be?"

Dubian Che whispered to Jiutiao ijie, "Your mom's gone crazy, really."

"Che-kun," Jiutiao Zhenji's radiant smile was ruthless as her hand twisted at Dubian Che's waist—truly like mother, like daughter.

In such an atmosphere, the three of them walked to the cultural center.

It was a courtyard enclosed by long pavilions, surrounded by lush trees, with white clouds and blue sky in the distance.

In the courtyard, a wedding was being held, with many onlookers.

At iji Shrine, weddings were naturally conducted in the "Divine wedding" style.

The bride was dressed in a white shiromuku, and the groom wore a full black kimono with a flat-striped pleated skirt, a white flower ball in the center of the chest, and a white fan in hand.

The shrine priest led the way at the front, followed by two shrine maidens in red and white attire.

The bride and groom walked behind the maidens, followed by a priest holding a red umbrella over the couple.

Behind the priest were family mbers from both sides, with the n in tailcoats or suits and the won in black or plain-colored kimonos.

A long procession.

"Should we also get married here in the future?" Dubian Che asked.

"With ?"

"Miss Manaka, can you return to your year of 19**?"

"Are you calling old?"

"Not at all."

"Then why won't you marry ..." Under her daughter's gloomy gaze, Jiutiao Zhenji smiled and changed her words, "Nevermind, just kidding."

'Release my arm already!' For Dubian Che, it wasn't enjoynt, it was torture.

"Let's go, let's look at the irises!" Jiutiao ijie didn't get as angry as imagined, smiling as she led the two out of the courtyard.

After walking through the forest of ancient trees for a while, they arrived at a green lawn.

The rain from yesterday had evaporated clean after a morning of sunshine. At this ti, on the fresh green lawn, families picnicked, children chased and played, and couples walked.

"Shall we sit and rest a while?" Jiutiao Zhenji suggested.

"Forget it, too many people here, let's walk on a bit further." Today it wasn't Mrs. Jiutiao, but Jiutiao Zhenji, so Dubian Che didn't entirely comply with her suggestion.

"I'm not tired, but my feet hurt." Jiutiao Zhenji said, "Will you carry , Che-kun?"

"..."

"If you don't want to carry , then let's rest a while, alright? I'm very gentle and understanding, you know."

"Mother, please, don't make it hard for him," Jiutiao ijie said, her smile hiding her amusent, "Walking with , and stumbling upon a crowd of lovers, he has already killed his yesterday-self in his heart."

Mrs. Jiutiao covered her mouth, laughing elegantly, "I did it on purpose. It was those kids over there, wasn't it?"

She pointed at a group of girls gathered under a camphor tree.

'Vicious old aunt from 19**!'

In the direction pointed out by Mrs. Jiutiao, there were Mayi Asuka, Xiaoquan Aonai, Akiko, Miyazaki Miyuki—these were the expected figures.

Additionally, the Wind Instrunt Club Minister Ayane Kumi, along with her subordinates: Ichiki Aoi, Yuzao Haoi, Hanaoka Asako, Horikita Mai, Ushinishi Rika...

And finally, Kiyono Lin.

'Why are you here?' 'Do I need to explain?'—That was the silent exchange of looks between Dubian Che and Kiyono Lin before Jiutiao Zhenji ntioned resting.

"Go say hello, otherwise it would be too rude," Mrs. Jiutiao said cheerfully.

"ijie?" Dubian Che listened to his girlfriend's suggestion.

Jiutiao ijie snorted coldly, "Let's go have a look then."

"ijie, make sure you act with the dignity of a legal wife," Mrs. Jiutiao reminded her, "By the way, rember: I am ijie's older sister Manaka, a senior at Sacred Heart Girls' High School, mber of the Kendo Departnt, and a fan of manga."

"You know about manga?" Dubian Che was a bit surprised.

"Che-kun," Mrs. Jiutiao laughed, "Just how old do you think I am in your heart?"

"...Sorry."

"When I was younger, I was also a girl chasing trends and loving shoujo manga. Rember that."

"Back in the day..."

"What did you say?"

"Nothing, didn't say anything."

The trio, arm in arm, walked towards the group, who had already noticed them and showed various reactions.

Mayi Asuka's clear eyes fixed on Dubian Che, not even noticing the two beside him;

Xiaoquan Aonai shyly stood up, waiting for their approach;

Akiko and Miyazaki Miyuki stood behind her, as if to back her up;

The mbers of the Wind Instrunt Club were just there for the excitent, with Horikita Mai cheerfully waving to Dubian Che.

Sitting with them, Kiyono Lin sipped tea with grace and calm—if it weren't for the supermarket brand large bottle of barley tea beside her, Dubian Che would've thought she was drinking so fine black tea.

Approaching them, Xiaoquan Aonai was the first to speak:

"Jiutiao, good afternoon."

Jiutiao ijie looked her over for two seconds, then replied, "Good afternoon, Mr. Xiaoquan."

"Good afternoon, Mr. Xiaoquan," Mrs. Jiutiao repeated with a smile, curiously eyeing Xiaoquan Aonai.

"Ah, good afternoon!" Xiaoquan Aonai bowed, "And who might you be?"

"I'm ijie's older sister, Jiutiao Zhenji, currently a high school senior."

"Nice to et you, Miss Zhenji!"

The smile on Mrs. Jiutiao's face beca a tiny bit more genuine.

Dubian Che glanced at the high school girl from 19**, then said to Xiaoquan Aonai, "Mr. Xiaoquan, did you all arrange to et here?"

"Yes," Xiaoquan Aonai held back her affectionate gaze and tone, "Mayi and I were making cakes at ho, Ichiki called and invited us to watch a ga at Shengong Stadium. It starts at two in the afternoon, so we decided to have lunch here first, oh, and you should sit with us, we have desserts made by Mayi and ."
