My childhood sweetheart is Nishimiya Glass

Chapter 267 Many eyes were watching her secretly.

"So, Glass-chan?" Ayumi Ajitani asked, her words slightly muffled as she chewed on a chocolate biscuit, "Any clubs you're interested in?"

"Hmm..." Shoko slowly shook her head, shifting her gaze from the application form for joining the cooking club. "Ayumi-chan, what did you just say? I didn't hear you..."

Ayumi swallowed the food in her mouth and repeated it.

Upon hearing this, Shoko asked in return, "What about you, Ayumi-chan? Are there any clubs you're interested in during high school?"

Ayumi Ajitani stared at the several club application forms in her hand, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Maybe the cooking club..."

"Ayumi-chan, you should finish that bag of cookies before you think about it again."

At this moment, Takagi Sana and Nishikata Naoto stepped forward, and compared to Shoko and the other two, their hands were empty.

"Should we go back or wander around some more?" Nishikata asked, looking at the three of them dividing up the cookies (their spoils).

He and Takagi were just browsing the club recruitment area, and it really was just that—literal. Nothing happened. They barely spoke a few words to each other the whole time…

"Anything's fine with me," Ayumi Ajitani shrugged. "Shoko-chan and I have almost finished shopping. What about you guys?"

"Let's go home." Takagi glanced at Nishikata beside him without saying a word.

Compared to joining these clubs, she still prefers to go home and read comics and novels. If she had to choose a club, she would definitely choose the "Homebody Club".

Neither Shoko nor Nishikata had any objections, and the group began walking towards the school gate.

"Shoko, are you sure you'll be okay going home alone?" Ayumi asked with some concern at the crossroads where they were about to part ways.

"Ayumi-chan, I'm really not a three-year-old, and there are only a few hundred meters left."

Before the three could respond, Shoko waved to them and strode quickly toward the left-hand intersection.

She can't wait to go home and share the funny things that happened this afternoon with Gang, and she also wants to hear about his trip to driving school.

Seeing this, the three of them said no more, exchanged greetings, and then parted ways, heading towards the other two intersections.

"See you tomorrow."

"Ghana……"

"Bye-Bye."

Ayumi Ajitani took a few steps, hesitated for a moment, then turned around and walked quickly towards the street near the glass factory.

At the same time, Shoko had just sent a message to Tsuna when she learned that he had already returned home, and her pace quickened unconsciously.

"Sister, why are you walking so fast?"

Upon hearing this, Shoko turned around and saw Nishimiya Yuzuru following behind her with Hachiko by the hand, looking a little out of breath.

"Yuzuru, when did you start following me?"

She was very puzzled because this road was the opposite of the park where Nishimiya Yuzuru usually took Hachiko for a walk.

This road has a lot of pedestrian traffic, mostly students and office workers. She usually doesn't take Hachiko to crowded places, mainly because she's afraid he'll poop in the street and she'll have to pick it up...

There was also a hidden reason: she was afraid Hachiko would bite someone. Although she knew Hachiko wouldn't do that, she was just afraid of the worst-case scenario.

"Because Hachiko wanted to go this way today."

"Ow..."

As if to make Nishimiya Yuzuru's words more believable, Hachiko wagged his tail and barked in agreement.

"..."

Without thinking much, Shoko stepped back to Yuzuru Nishimiya's side, took her hand, and continued walking towards home.

On the way, Yuzuru Nishimiya shared with her the fun things at her new school and the new friends she had made, etc.

"Sister, doesn't that person in front look like Gang-ge?"

Before Nishimiya Yuzuru, Shoko spotted the person walking towards them earlier. "That's Tsuna. I just don't know what he's doing out here."

"I was worried about you." Yuzuru Nishimiya said bluntly.

"Tsuna, didn't you just get home? Why are you out again?" Shoko asked curiously as the group approached.

On the way, Nishimiya Yuzuru gave a whole bunch of reasons why Tsuna would be there, but she didn't believe any of them... "I was worried about you, what if you got bullied by some thugs on the street?" Tsuna squatted down in front of Hachiko and rubbed its head:

"Wouldn't that be my chance to be a hero and save the damsel in distress?"

"childish……"

Upon hearing this, Tsuna stood up, intending to teach this outspoken black-haired little girl a lesson.

"Sister, Hachiko and I will protect you, we don't need you!" Nishimiya Yuzuru bumped her head against his stomach to avoid his groping hands.

"Hi, hi, hi..."

Unlike the two of them playfully fighting, Shoko held Hachiko's leash and quietly watched them. For a moment, she felt that her own Tsuna was still quite childish...

Tsuna stopped Nishimiya Yuzuru's hands, which were trying to cause trouble: "Let's go, I brought you some delicious food when I came back from Shibuya."

"What's delicious?" Nishimiya Yuzuru asked in return.

"There's no share for you."

"Tch..." Nishimiya Yuzuru snorted and ignored the person.

This childish brat needs to be disciplined by his older sister...

------------

"Takagi-san, where are we going?"

"Shh, keep your voice down." Takagi Sana put a finger to her lips. "We're playing a tailing game. See Ayumi-chan sneaking around up ahead?"

Upon hearing this, Naoto Nishikata followed her gaze and indeed saw Ayumi Ajitani hiding around the corner, acting suspiciously...

If it weren't for her adorable face and the fact that they were familiar with each other, he would definitely have suspected she was up to no good...

Nishikata had long forgotten Takagi's childish tone, his attention already drawn to Ayumi Ajitani in front of him.

As they watched Ayumi Ajitani walk out of the corner and head forward, Takagi, without thinking much of it, grabbed Nishikata's hand and hurriedly followed, tiptoeing.

"..."

What is Ayumi Ajitani doing so furtively? Any stalking games or anything like that were long forgotten by Nishikata the moment they held hands.

I had only one thought in my mind: Takagi-san's hands were so soft, and they felt a little cool...

However, the release was sudden, and Ayumi Ajitani stopped not far ahead. It was unclear what she had seen, but she turned around and walked back.

Takagi and Nishikata were forced to hide until Ayumi Ajitani left.

"Squad leader, what did you see? Why are you turning back?" Nishikata looked at Ayumi Ajitani's retreating figure, full of confusion.

"Why don't you go over to where Ayumi is and see for yourself?" Takagi chuckled and shrugged.

Naoto Nishikata didn't hesitate when he heard this. He quickly walked to the spot where Ayumi Ajitani had just been and looked at the road ahead.

He quickly looked away and returned to Takagi Sana's side.

"See clearly?"

"Um……"

"Let's go home, and the game of tailing will come to a successful conclusion."

On the way back, Naoto Nishikata asked, "Takagi-san, aren't you curious?"

Takagi Sana turned to look at him. "What?"

"It's just that the class monitor saw something and suddenly turned back."

"I know, no need to guess, I know that Ayumi-chan saw a happy family of three."

"..."

Nishikata suddenly realized that Takagi-san was right...
