—Clatter, clatter.
The sound of the train speeding along the tracks echoed continuously. The scenery outside the window receded at high speed, as if leaving the hustle and bustle of the city behind.
The passengers, who should have been going about their own business—dozing, chatting in low voices, or eating snacks to pass the ti—had all, without exception, quieted down, their gazes subconsciously drawn to a certain spot in the train car.
Under the sunlight, a young man sat by the window, dressed in a clean white shirt. Perhaps due to constantly staying indoors, his skin was so fair it seed to have a sense of transparency.
The young man's features were delicate and handso, his nose bridge high and straight. His refined face could make one subconsciously think of a Japanese-style beautiful youth from a period drama, yet he did not give off a sense of immaturity, but rather a calm and steady aura.
The only thing that was perhaps a little regrettable was that the young man's golden eyes had no focus. Within their clarity was a sense of emptiness, clearly indicating that he was blind. The wheelchair placed in the aisle also indicated that his legs had so kind of defect, stirring a sense of pity in one's heart.
However, at this mont, the young man's face did not carry a trace of lancholy as one might imagine, but rather a helpless, wry smile.
And the reason for this was simple. The petite, golden-haired girl with a perfectly carved, doll-like face sitting opposite him, dressed in a jade-green dress, was holding a fried atball from a bento box to his lips with a gentle, smiling expression.
Just looking at this scene alone would undoubtedly make one think that the young man and the young woman were a match made in heaven.
But in the next mont, the young man's words reignited the hopes in the hearts of a few disappointed female college students.
"Sister, I can do it myself."
Feeling the food being brought to his lips, a slight look of trouble appeared between Aozaki Rin's brows. Although his adoptive sister would occasionally do this when they were at ho, as he grew older, the frequency of such actions had been slowly decreasing.
After all, he had grown up and no longer needed the girl to trouble herself like this. If he were to always rely on her in this way, it would be his own heart that would feel more troubled.
However, in response to the young man's words, Manaka Sajyou pouted as if sowhat dissatisfied, then said in a slightly sad, downcast tone.
"Are you already starting to dislike your sister at this age, Ren? Should I stay away from you from now on?"
"That's not what I ant..."
A look of apology appeared on his face. Aozaki Rin quickly shook his head, and at the sa ti, he parted his thin lips, swallowed the fried atball before him, and after chewing it carefully, he swallowed it down with a sowhat helpless smile.
Seeing this, Manaka Sajyou finally put away her previous crestfallen look. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, and she continued to pick up food from the bento box and bring it to the young man's mouth, a hint of satisfaction and a declaration of sovereignty in her eyes.
As for the few female college students who had been thinking of striking up a conversation because of Aozaki Rin's words, under the girl's seemingly unintentional cold glance, they imdiately suppressed their restless hearts.
Watching the young man before her eat every dish brought to his lips cleanly, without being picky at all, and even occasionally praising her cooking, the curve of Manaka Sajyou's lips grew more and more gentle. But at the sa ti, a trace of trouble flashed through her heart.
After all, according to her past plans and intentions, she was supposed to make the boy into her ideal "Prince Charming" and make him forever dependent on her.
But now, it could be said that this plan had succeeded, yet also failed.
Because the boy had indeed, as she had anticipated, beco a nearly "perfect" existence.
Considerate, gentle, understanding, and full of concern for her... But in contrast, Manaka Sajyou discovered that, at this point, it seed it was not the boy who was becoming more and more dependent on her, but rather she who had beco sowhat dependent on him.
Whenever she couldn't see his figure, she would beco anxious. Whenever she saw him frown, she would also feel worried. Whenever she saw him laugh, she too would feel joy from the bottom of her heart...
Manaka Sajyou felt that sothing must have gone wrong with her sowhere, for her original position as the "leader" in this "plan" to have turned into what it was now.
But for the ti being, none of this was a problem.
Because the boy had not yet beco the "prince" of her ideals, there was still a chance for things to turn around.
As long as she obtained that "tool" in the future, let the boy grow up step by step, and cured his eyes, Manaka Sajyou believed that this situation would imdiately be reversed.
When that ti ca, the boy who had beco a "prince" would follow her every step and never leave her side, unlike now, where she would always have a sense of crisis that he might be snatched away by others.
As for the present, it was rely a small accident on the way to the final result.
After all, the girl firmly believed that before the boy beca her "ideal prince," it was absolutely impossible for her to fall in love with him first.
This was rely a move to pass the ti and increase his dependence on her before the final joy arrived...
Just as Manaka Sajyou's thoughts were wandering and she was packing up the bento box, staring blankly at the young man's side profile, Aozaki Rin suddenly spoke up.
"By the way, why are we moving this ti, Sister?"
After all, to suddenly move from Shinjuku, Tokyo to a city called Fuyuki City, Aozaki Rin couldn't help but be confused.
And now, their family, disguised as ordinary people and carrying only a small amount of luggage, was sitting on the high-speed train to Fuyuki City. As for the matter of moving the entire Sajyou family mansion, it had been left to a moving company to handle.
Manaka Sajyou ca back to her senses, her slender white fingers lightly tapping her cherry-pink lips as she blinked blankly and said with confusion.
"Hmm... I'm not sure either. We'd probably have to ask Father?"
The girl cast a questioning gaze at the middle-aged man who had been sitting silently beside the young man from the very beginning, as if she truly knew nothing of the matter.
And Hiroki Sajyou looked at his innocent-looking daughter, then at his curious adopted son beside him. He opened his mouth, but did not answer imdiately. Instead, he casually picked up a newspaper at his side, opened it to cover his face, and after a few seconds, as if he had thought of a reason, he answered unhurriedly.
"...Just wanted a change of scenery. We've lived there for so many years, it's about ti we got tired of it."
"Is that so..."
Not doubting his adoptive father's words, Aozaki Rin nodded lightly. The girl sitting opposite him smiled, as if satisfied with this answer.
—The train continued to move forward along the tracks, and before they knew it, they had arrived in Fuyuki City.
