Kaguya Shinomiya was deeply shaken after witnessing Mr. Su Rui and Shizuka Hiratsuka's intimate dance under the full moon, finally realizing what the adult world was like.
Hayasaka Ai was equally shaken, though she did feel guilty for the mischievous prank she played on her Young Lady.
However, what Hayasaka Ai didn't expect was that after witnessing that scene, Miss Kaguya, upon returning to Su Rui Castle, did not go back to her own room to ponder or mope, but instead knocked on Hayasaka Ai's door.
"Hayasaka, do you think Mr. Su Rui would look down on my somewhat meager figure?"
"Of course not, Miss Kaguya. Since Mr. Su Rui is willing to be your fiancé, he naturally wouldn't dislike you. Perhaps, in his eyes, you are a rare commodity."
"Really? Hayasaka, are you saying Mr. Su Rui likes small chests?"
I only said it was possible, not that it was definite, but judging from Mr. Su Rui's reaction, I don't think so.
Hayasaka Ai muttered inwardly, glancing at her Young Lady's small chest, and instead of refuting Kaguya Shinomiya's words, she just nodded silently.
"That's great! No wonder I always felt something was missing in my interactions with Mr. Su Rui, but I could never quite figure it out. So, is this the kind of interaction that was missing? Hayasaka, what do you think I should do to make Mr. Su Rui and I..."
"Regarding that, I have some suggestions..."
Hayasaka Ai gently cleared her throat, about to offer some help to her Young Lady based on her previous experience seducing Mr. Su Rui, but Kaguya Shinomiya interrupted her before she could speak.
"Forget it, Hayasaka. You and I probably don't have much experience. If I hadn't brought back news of Su Rui this time, you'd probably be as clueless as I was."
..."You're right." As long as Miss Kaguya is happy, Hayasaka Ai decided to go along with her Young Lady's words, not refuting, and watching what kind of plan she would come up with.
"In that case, let me try first! If I succeed, then I'll be the one to give you advice on how to conquer Mr. Su Rui, Hayasaka!"
The more Kaguya Shinomiya thought about it, the happier she became, clenching her fists, even wishing she could stand up and burst into Mr. Su Rui's room right now to get intimate with him.
However, Hayasaka Ai reached out and stopped her: "Miss Kaguya, even if I don't have experience, I think you should choose a time when you won't be disturbed, for example, when Mr. Su Rui is alone with you."
After a pause, Hayasaka Ai looked at the excited Kaguya Shinomiya, whose cheeks were flushed, and reminded her:
"Right now, Miss Shizuka Hiratsuka is probably still in Mr. Su Rui's room. If you go in, you might disturb them, and it might even affect Mr. Su Rui."
In fact, according to Hayasaka Ai's understanding of Mr. Su Rui, if Miss Kaguya were to burst in like that, Mr. Su Rui would probably grab her and drag her along to climb a mountain.
However, Miss Kaguya probably doesn't have the strength to push open Mr. Su Rui's door and barge in.
Hayasaka Ai thought, already yawning with some drowsiness.
Today, she had a rare full meal at the barbecue party, so Hayasaka Ai was very sleepy now and wanted to get a good rest.
But Kaguya Shinomiya, currently in a state of excitement, couldn't sleep and kept pulling her along, chatting about things related to Mr. Su Rui:
"Hayasaka, what do you think, if I..."
"Mhm, mhm, Miss Kaguya, you're right."
Hayasaka Ai, whose eyelids were barely staying open from sleepiness, could only vaguely respond to Kaguya Shinomiya's words. Her slow-witted Young Lady didn't notice Hayasaka Ai's perfunctory replies at the moment and continued enthusiastically recounting her grand ambitions.
'I should have just let Miss Kaguya remain in the dark.'
Hayasaka Ai regretted telling Kaguya about this matter. She had finally managed to get a good night's sleep, but her own plan had ruined it.
Hayasaka Ai was very sleepy now, and when the drowsiness came over her like a tide, she couldn't hold on any longer and simply lay down in front of Kaguya Shinomiya and fell asleep.
After talking for a long time, Kaguya Shinomiya came back to her senses and noticed that Hayasaka Ai was curled up in front of her, resting her head on the quilt, breathing evenly.
"Hayasaka?"
Realizing something, Kaguya Shinomiya gently reached out to test Hayasaka Ai's breathing, and only after confirming that she was indeed just asleep did she let out a sigh of relief.
Then she took out her phone and checked the time; it was already three in the morning.
"Oh no, we have morning reading tomorrow."
Kaguya Shinomiya immediately fumbled to adjust Hayasaka Ai's position, then pulled the covers over herself and her good friend, closing her eyes.
But at this moment, Kaguya Shinomiya simply couldn't sleep.
Even with her eyes closed, her mind was filled with Mr. Su Rui and Shizuka Hiratsuka intimately dancing under the full moon, and the imagined scenes of her getting close to Mr. Su Rui at her own home.
It wasn't until six or seven in the morning that Kaguya Shinomiya finally managed to fall asleep, but she was soon woken by her alarm clock.
"Miss Kaguya, it's time to get up. We still have class."
Hayasaka Ai got up, stretched, and after getting dressed, began calling out to Kaguya Shinomiya, who was hiding under the covers, not wanting to hear the alarm.
"Hayasaka~ I'm so sleepy, let me sleep a little longer~"
"..."
Listening to her Young Lady's pitiful plea, Hayasaka Ai fell silent, feeling that such a plea was quite pathetic.
But then, remembering how she had been dragged into conversation until late into the night yesterday and couldn't sleep despite being exhausted, Hayasaka Ai's gaze sharpened, and she reached out to push Kaguya Shinomiya, who was still under the covers:
"Miss Kaguya, hurry up and get up, otherwise we'll be late for class."
And so, Kaguya Shinomiya was reluctantly forced to get up by Hayasaka Ai's stern urging, and even during the process of washing up, she continued to gaze at Hayasaka Ai with resentful eyes.
As for Hayasaka Ai, although she felt a little guilty, her guilt immediately vanished when she thought about how her much-anticipated quality sleep had been ruined by Miss Kaguya.
At breakfast, Mr. Su Rui sat in his seat, with Shizuka Hiratsuka leaning against him, the two of them intimately close, leaving no distance between them, and thus, in front of the girls, they ate breakfast in a loving manner.
"Tsk, what a playboy."
Shirai Kuroko looked at Mr. Su Rui, who was being intimate with Shizuka Hiratsuka, and couldn't help but chew her food fiercely, as if she wasn't eating breakfast but Mr. Su Rui himself.
"..."
Yotsuya Miko just looked at Mr. Su Rui with envy, then as if remembering something, she took out a student ID card from her pocket and handed it to Shirai Kuroko:
"Oh, Miss Kuroko, this is the student ID Mr. Su Rui arranged. You'll be coming to class with us today."
"Huh? Today?"
