Qingyou's eyelids twitched. What did he mean by "be careful"? He and the eldest lady were innocent!
"Principal, please don't judge so casually..."
Just as I was about to continue arguing, the old man sitting at the desk suddenly interrupted, "Well, by the way, the opening ceremony will be held in the afternoon. Remember to prepare the wording of your speech. Don't be perfunctory like last time."
"Tada understands about the speech, but Principal, there is really nothing between me and the young lady..."
"Okay, let's stop talking about topics that are not related to study. If you have nothing else, please leave first." The principal waved his hand and ordered them to leave.
"I..." Qingyou opened his mouth, but the words he wanted to say were blocked by the other party's casual words. After a pause, he felt like he was deflated and chose to give up, "I know."
----
The afterglow of morning light fell on Qingyou who had just walked out of the office building.
The small bamboo forest not far away was shining with a faint green light, and the green leaves were gently swaying in the breeze, as if singing a beautiful song.
Thinking of what the principal had just said to him and the look on his face, Qingyou couldn't help but feel a little irritated.
Why do I always feel that since reconciling with the eldest lady, some of my lifestyles have gradually changed a lot?
Take the eldest daughter for example. When she was with him, she often took advantage of him in the name of a close friend. She always locked the door at midnight, but when she woke up the next day, she was sleeping soundly in his arms.
No matter how harshly he questioned, the eldest lady would always have countless reasons and excuses to refute her. Not only that, every time she refuted him, he was left speechless and couldn't say a word.
He had originally thought that if the girl went any further he would just move away, but the other party's sense of proportion was just right.
Every time I want to get angry, I can't find a reason, so I can only bear it and suffer in silence.
Alas, I can't talk it out, and I can't beat him. Qingyou feels that such days are very difficult and sad.
Now, even the principal thinks that the two of them are having an affair. If things continue like this, things will sooner or later go in an uncontrollable direction.
No, we have to find a way to stop this from happening.
Qingyou walked out and pondered slowly, but he couldn't come up with a good idea after thinking for a long time. After a moment, he decided to seek attention from the system first, "Master Tong, do you have any good ideas?"
[I don't know, please find another way yourself.] A cold electronic voice responded to him.
"No way, Master Tong, there really is no solution at all?" Qingyou was still a little unwilling, "Use your super artificial intelligence brain to think about it carefully."
[Host, there is only one solution, which is to stay away from the young lady. I have reminded you many times before, but you didn't listen. You can't blame anyone for being in this situation now.]
Wow, you're quite angry.
Qingyou shook his head, sighed silently, and stopped asking questions.
Hearing Uncle Tong's cold tone, I knew he was still angry, so I'd better shut up, so as not to put myself in danger and cause unnecessary conflicts.
Thinking this in my mind, I found a vending machine and bought a bottle of oolong tea. I opened it and drank it slowly while walking towards the bamboo forest, intending to take a walk to relax.
The path in the forest becomes more and more quiet and peaceful with the change of seasons. On both sides of the moss, the originally bare ground is now full of bright wild flowers, and the air is filled with a faint scent of pollen.
Well, it's a good place to hang out and relax after dinner.
Take a sip from the tea can, the slightly cool sweet tea aroma goes down your throat into your stomach, bringing a cool and stimulating feeling
Qingyou raised her head and couldn't help but let out a comfortable groan. The gloom in her heart also disappeared with the coolness.
Sure enough, oolong tea is delicious no matter what time it is.
He sighed for a while, then drank the tea in the can in two or three gulps, burped quietly, crushed the can with one hand, and threw it into the trash can beside the mossy road.
"Hmm...what should I say to get through this afternoon's speech?" With his hands in his pockets, he lowered his head, kicking the pebbles on the stone road idly, thinking about the speech.
"Crash-"
With a push of his foot, the stone rolled forward quickly and only stopped when it hit a pair of black women's sneakers.
The pink socks are close to the white ankles, and half of the cartoon bear is exposed on them. It is so delicate and cute.
Qingyou subconsciously moved his gaze upwards, and the girl's appearance came into view.
It's Hanyu Reizuki
She was sitting on a bench at the moment, her back slightly bent, her hands holding her chin, her eyes staring at a certain place in a daze, and no one knew what she was thinking.
From a distance, she looks very cute at this moment.
——What a coincidence! I didn’t expect to meet you here on the first day of school.
Qingyou walked over and sat next to her in surprise, "Why are you sitting here in a daze, Hanyu-senpai?"
The sudden sound startled the girl. She came to her senses instantly, straightened her back in panic, stood up and tried to leave.
"Sorry, I accidentally...eh?" Turning her head and noticing that it was the boy, Hanyu Reizuki's face showed obvious surprise, "Tada-kun? Why are you here?"
There was a hint of joy in the questioning tone.
"Come here for a walk." Qingyou replied in a gentle voice, "I didn't expect to run into Senior here, what a coincidence."
"Yeah, what a coincidence~" Her knees were pressed together obediently under her skirt, and Hanyu Reizuki tilted her head to look at the boy, her beautiful eyes curved, and her voice was as soft and light as ever.
This familiar way of speaking and tone gradually softened the coldness between Qingyou's brows.
The senior is still the same senior. She hasn't changed at all.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and he brought up the topic and asked, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen you for a long time. What have you been doing during this spring break? Are you still working part-time?"
"Yeah." Hanyu Reizuki showed a gentle smile, but her hands on her knees tightened inwards, showing obvious nervousness.
"You have to find something to do, otherwise you'll get lazy if you stay at home all the time."
"That makes sense." Qingyou agreed, not noticing the girl's subtle movements at all. "It's better to be more self-disciplined in life. Although it's more tiring, the results you get are much better than lying at home all day."
"Eh? Since Tada-kun said so, did you maintain the good habit of self-discipline during the spring break?" Hanyu Reizuki asked curiously.
Hearing this, Qingyou's face froze.
He doesn't keep up with anything. He only runs around in the afternoon. The rest of the time he either plays games or takes care of the eldest lady.
Compared to the girl who insisted on working part-time during spring break, he was simply a loser.
"Well, self-discipline is the most basic thing." He replied with a forced calmness, his cheeks slightly hot.
In fact, he was not lying. After all, cooking every day is very tiring, and it can be considered a way of exercising.
The naive Hanyu Reizuki naturally didn't see through Qingyou's lame lie, and just praised him in an admiring tone, "Yeah, Tada-kun is really amazing."
Being stared at by such sincere admiring eyes, Qingyou felt even hotter on his face.
I feel like a black wolf is trying to trick the little white rabbit.
"The school is organizing a field trip this semester. Are you looking forward to it, Hanyu-senpai? Is there any place you want to go?"
"Of course~" When mentioning this, Hanyu Reizuki's eyes became sparkling, "I really want to go to the island of Okinawa."
Qingyou nodded and echoed the praise, "Okinawa? That's pretty good."
"Yes, yes, in addition to Okinawa, you can also sunbathe, play the watermelon-cutting game, or have a barbecue on the beach at night. There are so many things to do." She counted on her fingers, her beautiful eyes bright, and her tone full of anticipation and excitement.
Even his originally reserved and introverted personality faded a lot, and he looked just like a primary school student who was hanging out with his classmates for the first time.
It is enough to see that she is really looking forward to this school trip.
Qingyou couldn't help but laugh out loud
I didn't expect Hanyu-senpai to have such a childish side.
The boy's sweet laughter made Hanyu Reizuki blush. She fiddled with her two little fingers on her knees, feeling very shy.
Pursing her lips, she changed the subject awkwardly, "What about you, Tada-kun? Where do you most want to go on your school trip?"
"I?"
Qingyou shrugged, "Anywhere will do."
He was not interested in this kind of activity, he just thought it was troublesome. If the principal hadn't told him that the school trip was mandatory, he would have planned not to participate.
Perhaps she noticed that the boy was not enthusiastic about the school trip, so Hanyu Reizuki fell silent and did not mention it or ask any questions.
I lowered my eyes and thought quickly about what other topics I could talk about next.
Well... got it~
"Come to think of it, after not seeing you for the spring break, I feel like Tada-kun has changed a lot." She looked up at the boy and said
Qingyou pointed at himself in confusion, "Is there?"
How come he didn't feel it?
"Yes, there are." Hanyu Reizuki said softly, "For example, Tada-kunai smiled a lot and became a much more cheerful person."
It used to be really cold, with a vague gloomy aura emanating from my body. Although it is still cold now, compared to before, this kind of cold can only be regarded as calm and indifferent.
Of course, if you don't observe carefully, in the eyes of other girls, he is still the unapproachable and cold male god.
"If that's all, it wouldn't be considered a big change." Qingyou smiled, "Why don't you talk about you, Hanyu-senpai? You've changed a lot over the spring break."
"Eh?" Hanyu Reizuki pointed at herself in surprise, confused and dazed, "Do I have one too?"
"Of course." Qingyou smiled, then moved his hips closer to the girl without saying anything, stretched out his slender fingers to lift up the girl's drooping black hair, staring at her without leaving, as if he wanted to stare her to death
"T-Tada-kun..."
Hanyu Reizuki's voice was stumbling. The boy's sudden approach made her shy and nervous, and her earlobes were red and almost dripping with water.
"Yeah." Qingyou's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at his cheek for a while before slowly moving away. Now, he finally understood where the vague sense of incongruity came from.
"Hanyu-senpai." He looked at the girl with a hesitant expression, "Why do I feel like the dark spots on your face have faded a lot?"
Chapter 4: I like it, so I want to change
I don't know if it's Qingyou's own illusion, but the dark spots on the girl's face are much lighter than before the spring break. Her oval face is beginning to take on a delicate shape. Although she still looks plain, she is less hideous and creepy than before.
"Eh? Is there?"
Hearing the young man's doubts, Hanyu Reizuki was slightly stunned.
"Yeah, a little bit." Qingyou took his hand back and looked at her cheek, asking with concern, "So during the spring break, did Hanyu-senpai apply any ointment?"
"Ah? Um..." Hanyu Reizuki replied vaguely, "I did apply a little..."
"Oh? What kind of ointment is that? It can make the black spots lighter in just half a month. It's pretty powerful." Qingyou was a little curious.
"I'm not sure about this. My third aunt brought it back from abroad. There's only one bottle, and it seems to be just a trial version."
Hanyu Reizuki smiled softly, but held her hands on her knees tightly.
"Trial? It's not a finished product? How can it be used? What if there are hidden hazards that haven't been dealt with?" Qingyou frowned, immediately put on a serious expression and leaned forward to observe carefully, "Is there any discomfort or itchiness on your face?"
“No, no…”
The boy's approach again made Hanyu Reizuki hold her breath, and sweat appeared on the palms of her clenched hands.
"Is that so..." Qingyou stared at the girl's cheek and thought for a moment. He couldn't figure out the reason, so he suggested, "Then if you feel uncomfortable somewhere, you must tell me, don't hide it, and you must go to the hospital, understand?"
"Uh-huh..."
The boy's thin lips, which were light red, gave off an alluring glow in the sun, and a faint fragrance filled her nostrils, which made her feel a little lost, and a deep blush gradually covered her cheeks.
"Hanyu-senpai?"
"Eh, no, nothing."
Coming back to her senses, Senior Hanyu hurriedly moved back and sat at the edge of the bench. She looked so anxious, as if she had encountered some ferocious beast.
"Hmm?" Qingyou blinked, his tone slightly nasal, and he looked very confused.
"Just thinking about something."
She clasped her hands together, pressed the edge of her skirt down, pursed her lips, and the blush on her face had not yet faded. She apologized, "I'm sorry, Tada-kun. I was distracted in front of you."
"It's okay, I'm fine, but Senior Hanyu, you..." Qingyou pointed to her cheek, "Why is your face suddenly red? Do you have a cold?"
"Well... a little..." He turned his face away unnaturally, and the blush on his face deepened because of the lie
"Then why don't you go to the infirmary and take a rest? The school has just purchased a batch of medicines for treating colds. They are quite effective. You will be fine after taking them and taking a good sleep."
Qingyou suggested with concern
Because it was easy to catch a cold during the change of seasons, he believed the girl's words and did not think too much about other things because of those minor abnormalities.
