Chapter 496: Parents Call
时间:2019年12月31日,上午9:00.
Location: The largest ski resort in Sapporo, Hokkaido.
Characters: Me and three burdens.
Although I didn't show any mercy, I was still followed by these three people in the end.
The 300-word description of the ski resort is omitted here.
Because with my limited vocabulary, I can no longer express how beautiful this place is.
The only description that can contribute is:
Wow, so white~
It’s really white.
So white, so white, so white...
Gone.
"Are you planning to spend your last day in a place like this?"
Fushiguro Shiori walked out of the door and, like an extremely picky reviewer, picked up the ski equipment, looked at it, put it down, and then clicked his tongue and said, "It's just average."
"I might as well order ten male models to come over and line up to pour you drinks."
I swallowed and said, "You can't drink alcohol until you are 20 years old."
“Is this the point?”
I:"........"
That's very lifelike.
However, obviously no wine was poured, but there were already three guys standing in front of me whose figures and looks were comparable to those of top male models.
As the saying goes, quality is more valuable than quantity. At this point, I never thought that I could have Gojo Satoru, Geto Suguru and Fushiguro Shinobu come out to do business for me without spending a penny.
“Ding-ling-ling…”
Just at this moment, my cell phone rang.
The caller ID showed it was the couple who stood me up before New Years.
"My dearest daughter, good morning. The New Year is coming soon. I, Oudou-san, specially called to send you my best wishes. I wish our Lily a happy new year—"
The voice of the middle-aged man speaking on the other side sounded extremely, incomparably, and particularly flattering.
But even so, it cannot cover up the fact that they ran away abroad without saying hello and didn't call me for more than half a month.
I interrupted him without thinking and said coldly, "Don't give me that."
"As two missing persons, I am honored to receive your message at this time. Shouldn't I feel particularly honored?"
"Oh my...hahaha, Lily, don't say that." The middle-aged man laughed awkwardly and said in a very guilty tone, "Mom and Dad really have something important to deal with, that's why they can't come back."
"Oh, did you finally realize that there is nothing to learn from Mexican dishes, or did you finally get out of that American storm that didn't affect you at all?"
"We are not in America anymore."
"Where is that?"
"Uh... this, this..."
"Let me guess," I said expressionlessly, "Iceland, Romania, the Netherlands, or Belgium?"
Having visited America, their next stop seems to be Europe.
"In Denmark." He paused and said weakly, "I'm visiting the statue of the Little Mermaid now."
"Wow. A statue of the Little Mermaid." I looked up at the clear, cloudless sky and almost laughed out of anger. "You have time to pursue Andersen's fairy tales, but don't have time to go back to your country to see your daughter who's left behind, right?"
"You clearly know that I am your biological child. If you didn't know, you would think you picked me up."
"Tonight is New Year's Eve, didn't you know that?" I said angrily, "What's the fun of coming to Hokkaido alone?"
Although a lot of money has been transferred into my account, the New Year is very important and I also want to spend it with my family.
Why am I the only one here in the end?
"Didn't Li Zi accompany you?" He scratched his head and said, "I thought you would choose to go with her if I gave you two tickets."
"She had to work overtime because of something unexpected." I said unhappily, "And her parents even came all the way from their hometown to see her. Where are you?"
"What about the other young men?" he blurted out, "Aren't they also with you?"
"How many other young men?"
I rolled my eyes and saw Gojo Satoru, Geto Suguru and Fushiguro Shigeki fighting in the snow for a ski pole. They didn't look very smart.
"Wait a minute, Odou-san, how did you know there were other people beside me?" I narrowed my eyes suspiciously and asked in a low voice, "I don't think I told you."
“Uh, hahaha…” He was speechless for a long time and could only laugh, “About how I knew… well, dear daughter, listen to me explain…”
"Well, I'm listening," I said. "Explain it to me."
“It’s just…it’s just…” The person on the other end kept saying “it” for a long time but couldn’t utter a single word.
"Let me talk to her." At this moment, another person took the phone from him, and a slightly hoarse female voice sounded, "Guomei, baby, I really can't go back today to spend the New Year with you."
"After a few days, when we are done with our work outside, we will definitely come back to see you as soon as possible."
"Don't call me baby!"
The tears accumulated in my eyes suddenly fell out. I wiped them away vigorously and said angrily, "What? I am already a few years old, and you still call me that. It's so disgusting."
"No matter how old you are, you are still a child in our eyes."
Well, that’s even more corny.
"By the way, we have prepared a gift for you in Tokyo these days, remember to check it out~"
"I don't expect any New Year's gifts at all." I pouted, "So, how did you know that there was someone else around me?"
"I just confirmed it when I was on the phone with Li Zi." She replied, "That girl said that you met some really handsome guys, and she kept telling me that she would treat you to a meal when you got back."
"A dinner?" I snorted and said, "She's dreaming."
"How are they?" asked my mother. "Since they are all very handsome, is there one you like?"
......Although I know that she fell in love with my dad because of his looks, and she pursued him for several months and finally got married, but——
"Compared to that, shouldn't you be a little worried about whether I'll meet a few strangers and whether they will do something dangerous to me?"
"Like kidnapping or something like that."
"Who dares to tie you up?" She raised her voice, "We Lily are so powerful, we can knock them all down in a few strokes!"
Me: “….” No, is it only my family that’s like this, or are all parents these days so carefree?
"I'm just kidding. Hahaha..." she said quickly, "Actually, I know these young people."
"I've visited the places where they work, and they're all good kids with nice personalities."
"I feel relieved to leave you to them."
...Just based on Li Zi's description, they knew it was the same person? Aren't things getting weirder and weirder?
"Mom," I asked, "do you really know them?"
"Yes, yes." She said affirmatively, "Especially the handsome guy with white hair, he left a deep impression on me."
"Oh, those blue eyes are really very beautiful."
"Isn't the one with white hair a little too frivolous?" Dad suddenly interrupted at this time and disagreed, "I think the one with black hair looks more stable."
No, being steady or something like that is probably just your illusion.
If they can play together, how different can their levels be?
"Anyway," I said, "since you all know each other, I'll just trust them for now."
"Don't worry, you can definitely trust me." Mom said, "I may not be able to call you tonight, so I can only tell you now."
"I wish our Lily a happy new year," she said. "In the new year, I hope she will live in peace and grow up happily."
