Awakening - Chapter 195

Chapter 195 Request

After being knocked down so many times, when Rumi wanted to stand up again, Lei Yin walked over and pulled her up.

“Okay, that’s it for today.” He said, taking off her protective mask.

“Senior, do I regress a lot?” The kendo girl looked very frustrated.

Wiping the sweat from her forehead with a sleeve, Lei Yin smiled: “Because you have to prepare for the University entrance exam, you don’t have much time to practice before this. After your test, I will help you return to the previous level.”

Rumi looked at him, and after a while, her eyes started to redden, but she immediately bowed her head, not wanting him to see.

“Let’s go outside. It’s almost dinner time. You better take a shower first.” Lei Yin touched her head and then walked up the stairs with her protective mask.

Watching the slender figure went further and further, the girl could not help but gently let out a cry, “Senior.”

“What’s the matter?” Lei Yin looked back at her.

The girl was afraid to look him in the eye, “I, I will work hard.” Lei Yin smiled, “Come on up.”

Watching his warm smile, the girl all of a sudden has the impulse to burst into tears.

“Senior.” When Lei Yin was about to go up to open the basement door, Rumi suddenly called out.

“What?”

“Nothing, just wanted to call.” The girl said with a smile.

Back to the living room, when Amy, who sat beside Kazumi watching cartoons on TV, saw Lei Yin she immediately jumped down from the couch and ran over to him.

Lei Yin easily picked her up and then said to Kazumi: “Is Maeda back?”

“He said he will be back in half an hour. Rumi, look at you so sweaty like that, go take a shower.” She went over to the kendo girl to help her take her protective clothing off.

Amy very curiously watched Rumi took off her protective clothing.

After Rumi went to the bathroom, Kazumi asked Lei Yin: “Brother, how is Naoko-sensei?”

“She is much better now. In a few days, her wounds will be completely healed.”

Kazumi paused and then said: “Brother if Naoko-sensei is all right, can you spend more time with Rumi? For several days you weren’t here, she became dispirited.”

Lei Yin grimaced, “Kazumi, in addition to thinking about Naoko, you should be able to understand my intentions in doing this.”

Kazumi worriedly said, “I know you don’t want Rumi to be too dependent on you, but this time is too important for her, and I really don’t want to see her unhappy look. Brother, please.”

This was the first time he heard her asked him with a face filled with concerns like this. Lei Yin thought and then said: “Let me think about it, okay?”

Kazumi looked at him and nodded.

At dinner time, Rumiko was stunned to see the little girl skillfully eat her meal with chopsticks.

“Masashi, isn’t Amy a foreigner? How could she used chopsticks?”

Lei Yin put a peeled shrimp to the little girl’s bowl and said: “She wanted to learn on her own initiative. When she saw me eat with chopsticks and find it interesting, she wanted to try it. She is very smart; It took only two days for her to learn.” Maeda said with a smile: “When I heard there’s a foreign girl at home, I bought a knife and a fork on my way back, it seems unnecessary now.”

Lei Yin asked Amy: “Kid, delicious?”

The little girl nodded at once.

“Eat more if it’s delicious.” He said while he picked the cooked rice grain from the corner of her mouth.

Looking at this pretty little girl, Rumiko’s motherly instinct flared up and began to give her the dishes from time to time. And each time she gave it to her, the little girl would smile to show her thanks. Seeing how sensible she is, Rumiko became even more fond of her.

Rumi, who sat on the other side of the table, watched the life-size doll-like Amy with great interest.

After eating the meal, Lei Yin noticed Rumi holding a bag as if she wanted to go out. He knew she was about to go to the cram school. Because there were many students enrolled in the Tutorial Agency, the class has been divided into day-class and night-class, and she happened to be placed on night-class.

Borrowing the car key from Maeda, Lei Yin said to the kendo girl: “Rumi, I’ll drive you.”

“Senior, you don’t have to, I can take the subway.”

“What’s with this politeness, come on.”

The kendo girl very happily said: “Thank you, senior.”

Seeing him going out, Amy immediately went after him.

Lei Yin said to her: “Kid, you stay here and watch TV, okay? I will be back soon.”

In order to give them the opportunity to be together, Kazumi immediately came over and took the little girl’s hand to reassure her.

Amy thus agreed.

Seeing the joyful look of Rumi as she walked out with her brother, Kazumi’s face gradually revealed a smile.

After driving for about 30 minutes, Lei yin stopped the car near the entrance of the Tutorial Agency.

When the girl unfastened her seatbelt, Lei Yin asked: “Rumi, you’re going to finish your class in 9:30?”

“Yes, senior.”

“At that time, I want you to wait for me at the entrance, I will come and pick you up.”

“You really don’t need to do this, senior.” Rumi was overwhelmingly flattered.

Lei Yin added: “Not only tonight, until the end of summer, as long as I have the time I will come and pick you up from school. I really don’t feel assured for a girl like you to walk alone at night.”

“Senior….” The moisture in her eyes was more and more welled up, and then quickly merged into water droplets which then flew down.

“Little fool, there’s nothing to cry about this thing.” Lei Yin gently wiped the tears with his sleeves.

Rumi could not stand it anymore and threw herself into his arms and cried out loud.

She did not know why, but after he came back from the vacation, Rumi always felt there was something different in him. He often was not at home and no longer call herself kid. Nor did he gently stroke her hair like before. This seemingly sudden sense of distance made her very upset and confused.

This seems a bit rushed, Lei Yin thought in his heart as he watched the weeping teenage girl tightly clung to him.

After a while, when the girl’s cry slowed down, Lei Yin gently stroked her hair and said: “Do you have something in your mind? If you don’t mind, you can talk to senior about it.”

Hearing his gentle tone, the girl’s tears could not help flow down, “Senior, I beg you, please don’t ignore me.”

“Fool, how could it be? Rumi is the most obedient and well-behaved, how could I ignore you?”

The girl raised her head back and looked at him, and after a while, she suddenly blushed and whispered: “Senior, I, I….”

Chapter 195 Request Part 2

But before she finished, Lei Yin gently embraced her head on his bosom, and then said: “Rumi, I know what’s in your mind. But now you are still young, let’s talk about it after you go to college, okay?”

“Do, do you mean this?” Rumi’s voice trembled.

“Yes.”

“Senior.” Rumi’s heart was filled with a burst of ecstasy. She tightly hugged him with both of her hands very excitedly while tears continued to come out of her eyes.

Seeing her body shudder with excitement, Lei Yin sighed in his heart. His right hand continued to gently stroke her hair.

At this time, the car was filled with tranquility.

After this night, the young girl seemed to get her spirit back, and her face always responded with a familiar cheerful smile like before. At the same time, Lei Yin also increasingly spent more time at home to help her with the study. Everything seemed to be back to the three people’s high school’s days.

Despite the language barrier, Rumi, who still retained her inner child, increasingly got along better with Amy as days went by. Sometimes, they even slept together, which made Lei Yin very happy.

“Rest assured, the kid is doing very well. If you don’t believe, at that time, you can check whether she gains weight or not.”

“What, the old fox said hello to me? Thanks then, you can give him my thanks.”

After the conversation ended, Naoko asked: “Is that, Alice Lynn?”

“Yes, she wants to ask about the kid’s situation.”

“Lei, Renjia haven’t seen Amy for many days too. Can you bring her here for two days?” Naoko took his hand and said. (When girls try to be cute or flirty, they call themselves Renjia – which means ‘other people’ – to their male friend/boyfriend)

Rarely hearing her coquettish tone, Lei Yin could not help but palpitate with excitement.

“If I promise you to bring her over, how are you going to repay me?” Lei Yin smiled a bit evilly.

Naoko immediately blushed and lowered her head, unable to look him in the eye.

Lei Yin climbed on her bed and put her horizontally in his arms, and then whispered: “Tell me, how are you going to repay me?”

Naoko could not hold her shame and gently hammered his chest in a coquettish way: “Bad guy, you always bully me.”

Lei Yin smiled, bowed and kissed her on the forehead, and then carefully played with her delicate and beautiful jade-like feet with his left hand.

After a while, Naoko moved, rolled up like a cat lying in his arms so that he can play more easily. At the same time, her breathing became more and more rapid.

When he was about to take her dress off, Lei Yin heard the sound of someone outside trying to open the door with a key. He had to somewhat reluctantly moved near the ear of the already wet with excitement Naoko and whispered: “Aiko is back.”

Naoko was taken aback and immediately sat up.

“If I knew this, we should have gone to the villa. What a waste.” Lei Yin said while helping her zip her zipper on the back of her dress.

The still blushing Naoko gently laughed, “You go out first, okay? I still have to organize first.”

Lei Yin nodded, bowed, kissed on the cheek, and walked out of the room.

Just as he walked out of the room, he immediately saw Aiko walking outside the room with four cans of soda.

To see him suddenly appeared, Aiko uncontrollably called out and the two cans of soda slipped from her hands.

Lei Yin deftly caught them all in a flash.

Aiko calmed herself down and asked: “When did you come?”

“Half an hour ago. You’re done shopping?”

“Yes.” Remembering that he just came out of her sister’s room, Aiko could not help but blush.

When the other three girls, who sat on the sofa, saw Lei Yin, they looked very surprised. They did not expect him to be here. But soon, the three girls seemed to realize something and, as if by prior agreement, they all blushed.

Seeing their expression, Lei Yin knew it was useless to say anything, it will only make matter worse. So he dryly coughed out loud and said: “Since there are so many people, why don’t we play cards?”

“O, okay.” Asami was the first one who came to her senses and immediately agreed.

“I agree, let’s play cards.” Aiko followed.

Although the five people sat down to play cards, the atmosphere still seemed a bit awkward. The rather bold Kogure Ryoko, from time to time, secretly looked at Naoko’s room.

Lei Yin could not help but wryly smile in his heart, Letting these several girls run into that thing was truly a misstep. However, his face was still calm and unperturbed, totally worthy of his tempered ultra-thick face.

After vacationing in Kagoshima and Kyoto, Lei Yin has no interest to travel elsewhere again. Usually, in his free time, he would take Amy, Kazumi, and Rumi to stroll randomly around Tokyo. Sometimes when Rumi has to stay at home to review her study, Lei Yin would take Amy and Naoko instead.

Time flies. A month later, the very long summer holiday would soon end.

One day, a woman rang the doorbell of the Gennai House.

When Lei Yin brought this impressive woman into the house, Amy immediately cheered and ran over to her, “Lynn!”

She was Amy’s guardian, the mixed race beauty, Alice Lynn.

That night, after having dinner, Alice Lynn said to Maeda and Rumiko: “Thank you for your kindness and hospitality in taking care of Amy this period of time, thank you so much.” Because Alice Lynn was well-versed in several languages, and Japanese was one of them, she did not need Lei Yin to translate it for her.

Maeda immediately said: “Please do not be so polite. Actually, we did not do anything. The people who took care of Amy all this time are Masashi, Kazumi, and Rumi.”

At this time, Lei Yin asked: “When do you plan to take the kid back?”

“If possible, I want to take Amy back the day after tomorrow.”

All good things will come to an end, Lei Yin was very clear of this. Therefore, he quietly stroked the hair of the little girl who seemed a bit down. Amy was also very clear, as long as she loved Alice Lynn, she must go back with her. Because of this, she did not cry. However, it was very difficult for her to be in a good mood.

Lei Yin took her in his arms and softly said: “Kid, don’t be like this, wait until the next year’s holiday and we can play together again.’

“Lei, I don’t want to leave you,” The little girl could not help but tightly cling to his neck and cry out loud.

Seeing this, the other people could not help but sad.

“You guys should wait here and slowly talk, I am taking the kid out for a walk.” With that, he hugged the little girl and walked out of the door.

When he went outside, feeling the gentle blow of the cool breeze, Lei Yin smiled and said to the little girl: “How is that dog called Rei Li doing?”

Hearing his question, the little girl’s mood seemed a bit better, “It looks so big now. Moreover, it has a lot of puppies, and each one of them is beautiful. But Mr. Bacon always complained that they gnawed away the flowers in the garden.”

“Ohh, why don’t you tell me what each of them looks like?”

“There is one who is fully black, I called it Black. But I don’t understand why the white dog would give birth to a black puppy. Moreover, it’s very naughty. Mr. Bacon said it chewed the flowers the most. There is also one with yellow pattern, it spent all days sleeping….” The little girl began to speak, and Lei Yin also asked some questions now and then. Gradually, the little girl forgot about the matter of returning home and cheerfully said about the frogs, puppies, and the school’s matter.

When he went back in, the little girl’s head has been lying on Lei Yin’s shoulder asleep while her mouth revealed a faint hint of a smile.

Looking at her sleeping angel-like face, Lei Yin smiled, lowered his head and gently kissed her forehead.

Afternoon of the third day, at Narita International Airport departure lounge, looking at the rapidly flying silvery giant plane, Lei Yin asked Maeda for a cigarette, lit it up, and slowly smoked it.

Walking to the nearby crying kendo girl, Lei Yin stroked her head and said: “Rumi, let’s go back.”

Rumi looked up at him, and then gently nodded.
