Chapter 293 Chitose's Sushi

"Hehe~ Sushi~ Sushi~ Sushi made for Brother Shu~~ Ah! Done!"

Yang Kui Chitose picked up the simple box as if it were a treasure, raised it above her head, and happily spun around two or three times.

Perhaps she felt that something was missing, so after putting the box down, she checked the hand-made sushi inside again and again to make sure that there was no mistake in the combination of the sushi she made.

"Perfect~Perfect~"

When everything was done, she packed the box and carried it in a plastic bag.

Wearing the winter clothes that Fujii Itsuki gave her last time, she walked down the wooden stairs with a clattering footsteps.

The receptionist at the hot spring hotel happened to see her and greeted her with a smile:
"Chitose is going out to look for your brother Fujii again?"

"Yes, yes."

"What did you bring today?" The receptionist saw the wooden box in her hand.

"It's still sushi," Yang Kui Chitose responded with a smile, "but this time I made all the kinds I can! One for each! Last time, we celebrated Brother Shu's birthday together, so I haven't prepared anything for Brother Shu alone. Let's not talk about it now. I'm going out first."

"Go ahead." The receptionist smiled and watched her leave the hot spring shop.

Yang Kui Chitose hummed a little tune as she got on the bus, and then walked along the snow-covered street to the door of Jiuhua's house.

He opened the big iron gate, took out the key and opened the door of the house, just in time to run into Matsumae Shinchun who was about to go out, and Yang Kui Chitose immediately stopped where she was.

"Xinchun?"

"Ah? It's Chitose," Matsumae Shinchun smiled, "Sensei and I were just about to go out to look for you."

Yang Kui Chitose saw that she was wearing a formal dress for a lady and had a white scarf around her neck, and asked in confusion:
"Why is Xinchun at home?"

"Don't you remember Chitose? At the last birthday party, I said I wanted to give Mr. Fujii a gift, and I even asked Mr. Muzi to find out what type of person he likes."

Yang Kui Chitose thought about it.

Last time, Xinchun really said that she wanted to give Brother Shu a birthday present.

Because Sister Shu has always wanted a car but has been reluctant to buy one, Xinchun plans to give it to her.

She asked Sister Muzi to find out about this matter.

"So you are going to buy a car with Brother Shu now?"

"Yes, I'm going out to look for you right now."

After answering, Matsumae Shinchun's expression suddenly became quite sad. "I originally wanted to take the teacher with me before or on my birthday, but then I found out that my family had temporarily frozen my pocket money because I hadn't been back for solitary confinement for so long."

"Oh, your Matsumae family's house rules are really strict. It's obviously not your fault, Koharu."

"That's what the teacher said."

Fujii Itsuki and Jiuhuayue in the house quickly packed up and walked out of the living room. Fujii Itsuki found that Yang Kui Chitose happened to be visiting at the door, so he didn't have to go to look for her.

Fujii Itsuki reached out and touched her head. "Okay, we can go together."

"Oh"

Chitose Yangkui was a little dazed by the touch. She nodded and followed the three people to the door. After waiting for a moment, she got into the Mercedes-Benz Maybach driven by Sakura Nagayama with the sushi box she had not had time to open.

The butler was driving, Fujii Itsuki was sitting in the passenger seat, and the three little ones were sitting together in the back.

Otaru is still some distance away from Sapporo. Fujii Itsuki closed his eyes and took a nap, while the three girls started chatting in the back.

After chatting for a few minutes, Matsumae Shinharu finally noticed what was placed on Yang Kui Chitose's legs.

"What's that on your lap, Chitose?"

“This, this!”

Yang Kui Chitose was about to say that this was a birthday present for Brother Shu, but just as she was about to open her mouth, she suddenly thought of something and quickly swallowed the words back. She stared at the small wooden box in her hand, hesitated for a while, looked up at Matsumae Shinchun and explained with a smile:

"It's nothing, just food, just food."

On the other side, Matsumae Shinchun nodded, not realizing anything was wrong.

Jiuhuayue, who was sandwiched between the two people, took a closer look at the wooden box on Yangkui Qiansui's legs.

More than an hour later, the Maybach arrived at the largest automobile trading market in Hokkaido.

All brands that can be sold in Japan are sold here.

Yang Kui Chitose didn't know much about cars and didn't know how to buy one.

She just looked through the window and felt that the place was very big. There were many modern buildings with glass curtain walls around it, and there were many cars of different brands on display inside.

Nagayama Sakura's Maybach first drove into a car brand store with four circles.

As soon as they arrived at the door, several people got out of the car.

Yang Kui Chitose was just about to ask why they parked their car without even looking for a parking space?
As a result, a man in a suit and tie immediately walked out of the store and bowed to several people.

The salesperson's eyesight was not bad. He could tell at a glance that Fujii Itsuki was the one in the center among the group, and immediately stepped forward to ask politely.

"Excuse me, who needs to buy a new car?"

After confirming the buyer of the car, he immediately became respectful and led everyone into the exhibition hall.

"Welcome to the Audi showroom, Mr. Fujii. It's my honor to serve you. What are your needs? We have the latest A series, Q series and R series models here, each of which represents our excellent quality and exquisite craftsmanship."

The salesperson spoke at a moderate speed and sincerely, and it was obvious that he was very familiar with the business.

Fujii Itsuki smiled and nodded, his eyes scanning the exhibition hall, occasionally pausing in front of a certain car model, as if weighing the options in his mind.

Chitose Haruki, Shinharu Matsumae and Kyuukazuki followed closely behind.

Chitose Yangkui was full of curiosity about the car model in front of her, and she kept peeking in to see what was inside.

"Mr. Fujii, if you have special requirements for performance, I recommend you to take a look at our RS series, especially the RS6 Avant, which combines sports performance and practicality, and can be used for daily driving or long-distance travel."

It seemed that Brother Shu was interested in this car, and the salesperson kept introducing it enthusiastically.

The service in this store is pretty good. Other staff members asked a few people to sit down first, have coffee, eat dessert, etc.

But when she heard that the car that Brother Shu had taken a fancy to just now cost 2000 million yen, she almost spit out the coffee in her mouth!
2000 million!
How many sushis would she have to make to earn that much!

Yang Kui Chitose secretly counted on her fingers.

200 yen per set, which is a pair of sushi.

That means she has to make 20 of them!

This is really an astronomical figure!
She couldn't make so many even after years of making them!

Although Fujii Itsuki was mentally prepared when he heard the price on the other end, he still frowned.

The male salesperson was very worldly-wise. He smiled and left on his own initiative, giving the group space to talk.

Fujii Itsuki looked at Matsumae Shinchun with some sadness:

".It's not good, right? This is too expensive."

Matsumae Shinchun smiled and said, "As long as the teacher likes it."

"."

Seeing that Fujii Itsuki was still hesitant, Matsumae Shinchun quickly added, "Teacher, it's okay, just buy it if you like it. Although Shinchun doesn't have a lot of money, only a little pocket money, but it's still possible to buy a few cars like this."

How many?!
Oh my god! Xinchun sauce!

Do you want to listen to what you are saying!
Chitose Yangkui was still shocked by the "pocket money" that Xinchun casually mentioned, but then she thought that Xinchun was the daughter of the Matsumae family, a wealthy family in Hokkaido!
Isn't it easy to get tens of millions of yen?
Thinking about it this way, Xinchun said that 2000 million is a small amount of money, which is really not something special.
But these 2000 million are of little use to me.
Chitose Yangkui felt hit.

After looking at Audi, several people then went to look at other brand stores.

German, French, Italian, Japanese, new energy cars. After looking around, Yang Kui Chitose felt that domestic cars were cheaper and could be purchased for a few million. But that was still several million yen.
Yang Kui Qiansui secretly looked through his small money bag, but there was not even 30,000 yuan.
Even if you add the pocket money she has saved over the years, it is only about 200,000 yuan.
I want to help buy a car.

That's just a fantasy!
A few of them walked around and had lunch, so they spent the whole day strolling around.

Finally, Xinchun decided on the birthday gift for Brother Shu, which was the R6S with four circles that he saw at the beginning.

At first, Shu Gege was reluctant to buy it, thinking that an ordinary Japanese car would be enough. But after Shu Gege got in the car for a test drive, he seemed to feel that more expensive cars were better.
Brother Shu had been wanting it very much.

Everybody saw it.

Xinchun said, "You can buy it," and Jiuhuayue said, "If you want to buy it, just buy it." Finally, after being persuaded by Xinchun a few more times, he really bought it.

When Chitose Yangkui saw Fujii Itsuki signing the purchase agreement, she smiled as if she was relieved.

The salesman who shook his hand also smiled. The car dealership was very straightforward, saying that the formalities could be completed today and he could come and pick up the car tomorrow and drive it away.

Brother Shu was so happy that he kept looking around at the car he was going to pick up. Xinchun accompanied him the whole time, carrying his handbag.
Only then did Chitose Yangkui truly realize that Xinchun really gave Brother Shu a birthday gift worth 2000 million yen.

And the 2000 million seems to be the base price. With car options, car taxes and so on, it will be even more expensive.
Sitting in Sakurabo's car on the way home, Yang Kui Chitose kept staring at the box of sushi on her lap that she hadn't had time to give away.
After everyone finished dinner at Jiuhua's house in the evening, Yang Kui Chitose took the initiative to wash the dishes.

After washing the dishes, she took the gift box in the plastic bag and said goodbye.

Fujii Itsuki asked, "Doesn't Chitose live here? It's getting late."

Yang Kui Qiansui smiled and responded: "No, no! My family still needs my help. It's fine during the day, but I still have to go back to help at night."

Fujii Itsuki was about to stand up, "Then I'll take you there."

"No! No thanks! Thank you, Brother Shu. It's not too late now. Qiansui can go back alone. No need to see me off."

Fujii Itsuki tried to persuade Chitose a little, but seeing that Chitose still insisted, he didn't say anything else.

Yang Kui Chitose left the Jiuhua family alone.

It gets dark earlier in winter.

It was only a little after six thirty and the sky was already like a late summer night.

She lowered her head and walked alone on the deserted street.

The girl kept thinking about what happened today.

Today, Xinchun bought Brother Shu a birthday gift worth more than 20 million yuan.
More than 20 million.
So much money.

Such a precious and thoughtful gift.

In comparison, what about yourself?

Your own gift.
"."

Chitose Yangkui looked at the ordinary box wrapped in the plastic bag in her hand again.

She was a little sad. She felt that she would never be able to give Xinchun such a valuable gift.
Compared to Xinchun.
Is it true that what I can give to Brother Tree is too little?

Are there too few things that can make Brother Tree happy?
Am I simply not as good as Xinchun?
Once the girl thought of this, she became distraught and staggered towards the bus stop.
Until she heard someone calling her name from behind.

The voice was too familiar, so even though it was far away and faint, Chitose Yangkui heard it.

Soon, she saw Fujii Itsuki rushing over.

He happened to be standing under a street lamp, and the light spread downward in a cone, illuminating his face.

".Brother Shu?"

Fujii Itsuki laughed, "There's no need to be so surprised to see me, right? I'm still worried about you, so I came here to see you off."

"Oh, so that's it. Thank you, Brother Shu." Yang Kui Chitose avoided his gaze.

The two then walked towards the bus stop together.

The more Yang Kui Chitose walked beside him and the more she enjoyed his company, the more she became very concerned about the afternoon's events.

The two stood together under the bare bus stop, where there was only a bus stop sign and a roadside tree that had lost all its leaves long ago and was covered with snow.

At this time, Fujii Itsuki looked up at the night sky and said with a smile:

"Look, Chitose, although winter nights come early, when it's not snowing, the stars are especially bright, as if they can shine into people's hearts."

Yang Kui Chitose followed his gaze and saw a few twinkling stars, which looked particularly dazzling against the dark sky.

She seemed to sense something.

"I remember that Qiansui and I used to like looking at the stars at night, right?"

"Well, Brother Shu also introduced me to many constellations. When I first saw the North Star that Brother Shu mentioned, I was very happy."

"Qi Sui, what do you think the stars in the sky are worth to humans?"

"Value? To humans? It shouldn't have much value. After all, it's impossible to touch it."

"Yes, it is of little value."

Fujii Itsuki nodded in agreement, "For me, and for most people, it's just like that, it's worthless. But has Chitose ever thought about it, there are some people in this world who are always curious about the stars in the sky.

“They want to explore, they want to actually reach out and touch the sky.

“Stars are not of much value to ordinary people, but to them, they are their lifelong pursuit and the most valuable thing in their lives.

“Why are the stars so bright?”

Fujii Itsuki smiled slightly and looked at her tenderly, "Maybe they want to tell us that even the most ordinary things in the eyes of others are always precious in the eyes of some people."

Yang Kui Chitose listened to what Fujii Itsuki said and looked up at him.

Keep looking at him.

Fujii Itsuki smiled again at this time, "Chitose wants to give me something, right?"

Chitose Yang Kui's cheeks turned slightly red when Fujii Itsuki saw through her thoughts, but she was also very embarrassed.

Because the things in my hands are very ordinary, very cheap and very simple.
But she remembered what Fujii Itsuki had said just now, and slowly took out the carefully packaged sushi gift box from the plastic bag and handed it to Fujii Itsuki with slightly trembling hands.

Her eyes flickered with anticipation and nervousness, fearing that this gift would not satisfy Fujii Itsuki.

Fujii Itsuki took the gift box and looked at it carefully.

Then he gently opened the lid, and a fresh aroma of sushi wafted into his nose.

"Well, Chitose, this is great! You really put so much effort into it." Fujii Itsuki praised sincerely.

Yang Kui Qiansui turned her little face away and said with a blushing face: "Brother Shu's compliments are too easy to see through."

"That's not a compliment, that's admiration. I'm really happy."

"Brother Shu, please stop lying. This afternoon..."

"Chitose wants to talk about the gift that Kokoharu gave me, right?"

"Well," Yang Kui Qiansui still lowered her head, "After all, it is so precious. Qiansui Qiansui will never be able to afford such an expensive gift in her lifetime."

Upon hearing this, Fujii Itsuki moved closer to her.

"Does Chitose think I'm having a great afternoon?"

"Um"

"What if I tell you that I am also very happy when I receive the sushi you made for me? Regardless of whether the value is equal or not, it brings me happiness."

"But. But"

Fujii Itsuki gently placed his hands on Yang Kui Chitose's shoulders and put his mouth close to the girl's ears.
"And Chitose, you have already given me the most precious thing in your life, right? What else can I not be satisfied with?"

When the girl heard this, her face turned even redder.

I looked up, and there was a light of emotion in my eyes.
She tried hard to suppress her sobs and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Well, then. It's possible that I won't be able to give such a good gift in my lifetime."

"What does it matter?"

"I may not be able to save that much money in my lifetime, and I can't give Brother Tree something better."

"What's the matter? You are still by my side, that's enough."

Fujii Itsuki thought she was really cute when she wiped her tears like this, so he patted her head and said with a smile:
"How about I go back with you today?"

"That's Xinchun and Jiuhuayue."

"It's okay, I'll explain it to them."

"Ah."

"besides."

"A-what else?"

“The sushi is really good.”

"Ok!"
