Chapter 27 Keep your distance from the sunflower
Chapter 27 Keep your distance from the sunflower
The following day, Monday.
"Mom, I'm going out!"
After breakfast, Kisaragi Yuru put her computer in her handbag and headed out towards Nishiki Tsutsumi Academy.
Before I had taken more than a few steps, as usual, I heard hurried footsteps behind me.
Before the other person could get close, Ruyue Yulu suddenly turned around and looked at her with a cold expression.
Hinata Aoi, who was about to greet him as usual, quickly stopped in her tracks.
She awkwardly withdrew her hand, cautiously glancing at Ruyue Yulu's expression as she whispered:
"Good morning, showerhead."
"Oh, good morning, Hinata-kun."
Ruyue Yulu calmly responded and turned to leave.
Hinata Aoi behind him couldn't help but explode.
"Shower head!"
She shouted loudly, ran in front of him with her fair and delicate legs, and opened her arms to block him.
Her bright eyes quickly filled with tears.
"What's wrong?" Ruyue Yulu didn't seem to notice anything amiss, but simply tilted her head and looked at her with a puzzled expression.
That expression, that indifferent tone, pierced the girl's heart like a sharp arrow.
"Waaah, Showerhead, you're asking me what's wrong? How could you do this? You don't even call me Sunflower anymore! You're calling me Hinata-kun now? What do you mean by this?! Are you breaking up with me?"
Hinata Aoi clenched her fists, her eyes glistening with tears. Her heartbroken expression made it seem as if Kisaragi Amuro had done something to wrong her.
But Ruyue Yulu did nothing wrong.
Faced with Hinata Aoi's questioning, he calmly explained:
"Don't you like Xiao Sang? Although I'm sad, I have to accept it. I can't hide my feelings to help you two get together, so the only thing I can do is change how others see us."
"I think you're not stupid, Hinata-kun. You should be able to see that we're so close that everyone thinks we're dating, or that we'll definitely be a couple in the future."
"Think about it, I guess Xiao Sang thinks so too."
"So, Hinata-kun, if we keep our distance and change the way people around us perceive us, then you and San will have a chance."
His words, spoken with such consideration for her, made Hinata Aoi's eyes light up.
But she quickly shook her head and hugged his waist.
"I knew the showerhead was nice to me, but even so, you're not allowed to call me Hinata-kun. You have to keep calling me Sunflower!"
"Even though I can't date you, Showerhead, we're still childhood friends, we've been friends since we were little. Are you really going to break off our friendship?"
As she spoke, her soft body pressed against his chest, and she looked up at him with a pitiful expression.
Ruyue Yulu was speechless.
He made himself perfectly clear; this girl still wanted his help through this small favor.
She's overthinking things.
He was already upset that his childhood sweetheart liked someone else, and he would never do something so stupid as to go against his conscience and help her date someone else.
So, having figured it out, Kisaragi pushed Sunflower aside and pressed her shoulders to make her stand up straight.
"I didn't say we were breaking up. I'm just wondering, Sunflower, do you actually like Xiao Sang?"
"Hey? Of course I like it! Let me tell you, the showerhead! It all started with last year's baseball tournament."
"We lost the game, and when I saw Xiao Sang smiling and comforting his teammates on the field, I instinctively felt something was wrong, so I went into the corridor from the east gate to check what was going on."
"Then I saw Xiao Sang crying and banging her head against the wall, looking extremely unwilling. At that moment, I felt like I was in love."
Hinata Aoi said, revealing a lovesick expression, just like Akino Sakura, except that Akino Sakura entered from the west door and saw Oga Taiyou banging his head against the wall.
Ruyue Yulu couldn't help but roll her eyes.
As the ace of the baseball club, the Taiga Taiyo team bears undeniable responsibility for losing the game!
While his teammates were saddened, their biggest complaint was that Taiyo was not living up to his potential.
So that baseball game was really cursed; he couldn't even be bothered to complain about it.
"I see, I think I understand now, but that's precisely why we need to keep our distance."
"Sunflower, if you really like Xiao Sang, and continue to be so close to me, you have absolutely no chance."
"This…"
When Hinata Aoi heard this, she felt that it made sense, but something still felt off.
She looked Ruyue Yulu up and down suspiciously, and found that he had changed his hairstyle and become more handsome. However, the tenderness and doting look in his eyes were gone.
Instead, all I got was indifference.
Hinata Aoi felt a tightness in her chest when she thought of this.
The showerhead is lying!
He wasn't saying he wanted to keep his distance out of consideration for her at all; he was deliberately distancing himself from her!
He...hates himself!
Hinata Aoi felt wronged, but she was also a little angry.
I came to see you early this morning hoping to maintain our friendship, but you've distanced yourself from me like this.
"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that? If you think what I said is wrong, then fine, let's hold hands and go to school together today, so everyone can continue to guess whether we're dating."
"No man can stand seeing his girlfriend holding hands with another man, Sunflower, what do you think?"
"Hmph! I think... the showerhead is a big idiot!" Sunflower held back her tears, glared at the person who wanted to distance himself from her, wiped her tears and ran away.
Kisaragi Yuru's lips twitched slightly.
Don't act like I'm bullying you!
If people misunderstand, won't I be targeted by your Sunflower Support Group?
That girl is absolutely awful!
But it's not a big problem. Asuka Yuru is more than happy that Sunflower's stupid fan club is coming to cause trouble.
This also serves as a warning to others, establishing a formidable image.
To be honest, ever since he acquired Ayanokoji Kiyotaka's physical abilities and fighting experience, he's always wanted to fight a few people for fun.
Unfortunately, there was no opportunity to use my skills.
Ignoring Sunflower who ran away crying, Ruyue Yulu continued walking slowly towards the school.
A childhood sweetheart who falls for someone else may seem cute, but that's about it.
It's better to pamper a woman who loves you than to fawn over one who doesn't love you.
Especially the woman who was silently watching him, who was a great beauty whose figure and looks were no less than those of Akino Sakura.
Thinking of Sumireko Sanshokuin, Kisaragi Uroku couldn't help but smile slightly.
As for Sunflower, let's let her cool off for a while before we talk about it.
Just as Ruyue Yulu arrived at the school gate, a clear and melodious voice came from behind her.
Good morning, Dewdrop.
Sumireko Sanshokuin greeted him with a smile.
Although she was still wearing the same long dress that covered her long, white legs, with braids and glasses, Ruyue Yulu now found her adorable.
After all, from now on, only he will be able to appreciate her beauty, which is undoubtedly a wonderful thing.
