Am I being simulated by their love affair.

Chapter 429 Time Waits for No One

Does Matsueda-kun really have someone he likes?

"Is it because Sakamuro-san couldn't persuade you to come, that you're using this excuse to brush it off?"

"Don't lie to us, okay? Otherwise, Momona-chan will be sad, okay?" The girls laughed and giggled, not knowing which one of them Momona was.

Given the personality of the eldest daughter of the Mochizuki family, someone who suddenly appears and interrupts a conversation should be treated coldly. However, the girl only frowned and then looked at the boy next to her.

Jun Matsuoka still wore a gentle smile, but looked somewhat troubled.

"I do have someone I like."

The noisy girls quieted down for a moment, then became even noisier, hopping around in front of the two like rabbits.

“Hey, is this true?”

"I'm so surprised! I've never heard of this before!"

"Momona is going to be heartbroken."

"Is it Tomatsu? Or Mochizuki? I thought Matsueda-kun would stay single until graduation!"

Mochizuki Haruka glanced at the girl in the crowd who was talking about being heartbroken, then turned back to wait for the boy's response.

"I can't say for now," Jun Matsue said with a smile.

"Ugh—what a spoilsport!"

"why is it like this?"

"Is this just an excuse? That's disgusting!"

"It's not an excuse." The boy raised his arm and made an X. "It's just that I can't say it without my girlfriend's permission. I have to respect her thoughts."

"Huh? Then ask her now!"

"That's it!"

"Could his girlfriend be right next to him?"

The girls turned their gazes to Mochizuki Haruka, whose stern face and icy demeanor brought them back to their senses, which had been so focused on teasing her.

"I'm so sorry," Jun Matsueda said apologetically. "I'll introduce it to everyone when there's a chance in the future."

"Okay~"

"Don't do it again, okay?"

"woooooo"

The girls walked away in a group, leaving the two of them behind.

"Let's go, didn't we need to get some hot water?" The boy shook the kettle in his hand.

Wang Yueyao glanced at him and continued walking forward.

"Is dating Yamami Maki this frustrating? You even have to hide your girlfriend's name?" the girl suddenly asked.

Jun Matsue smiled and said, "I'm not dating my senior, and we've never confessed to each other, so don't go spreading rumors."

Mochizuki Haruka snorted again, "If it's like this before even dating, won't it be even more frustrating after we start dating?"

The boy didn't answer; only the empty kettle, like a large bell, jingled softly with his footsteps.

Four steaming cups of coffee used up a whole kettle of hot water. Jun Matsue picked up his plate, which was covered with a piece of toasted bread that smelled of caramel, topped with a wobbly half-cooked fried egg and two strips of bacon.

"It smells so good." Jun Matsue placed the tray in front of him and took a deep sniff.

"Because they're all fried with butter~" The girl looked at him with a smile, her eyes exceptionally gentle—this scene was somewhat like her original married life.

Mochizuki Haruka stirred her coffee vigorously, the clinking of the spoon serving as a warning to the girl that this was no longer her private time.

After breakfast, everyone gathered in front of the camp cabin. Kominato Shoko stood on the steps of the cabin, while Hirouchi Aya still looked drowsy.

"You're free to do whatever you want this morning!" Teacher Kominato said, standing on tiptoe. "You can choose to kayak, cycle around the lake, or take a wilderness survival training course. Just make sure you stay within the lake area. We'll meet at noon for lunch and to pack your things." "Please be careful, everyone understand?"

"Yes—" came the same shout from the other side of the camp.

"Then dismissed! If you have any questions, you can ask the teachers and coaches, or the safety officers along the shore!"

As soon as the teacher finished speaking, Mochizuki Haruka came over, and Sakamuro Takeru, who was standing next to Matsueda Jun and laughing, gave up his seat.

What are Songzhi planning to do this morning?

The boy looked up, and the sky was so clear it was like a nearsighted person putting on newly fitted glasses, seeing everything clearly.

“Let’s ride a bike.” He turned to look at the quietly standing Mount Fuji. “With such good weather and such a beautiful lake, it would be a shame not to ride around it.”

“Then I’ll ride a bike too,” the girl said decisively.

"Didn't you ride it last night?"

"If you're not coming with me, what am I supposed to do riding my bike alone?" The girl rolled her eyes.

"Alright, alright." Jun Matsueda had no intention of changing his plans.

He glanced at the girl's legs; her straight, fair calves were covered in matcha-colored stockings—pleasing to the eye, but inconvenient for riding a bicycle.

"Go back and change into some clothes suitable for sports. I'll wait for you at the camp entrance."

While waiting at the door, Jun Matsue didn't sit idle; he took out his phone and tapped on Maki Yamami's profile picture.

"How are you feeling, senior? Have you taken any medicine? Has your fever subsided?"

Since the senior student doesn't want to talk about the past, then let's not talk about it for now. Matsueda Jun doesn't intend to let their chat box remain so cold.

The boy suddenly felt a sense of long-distance relationship and was somewhat emotional.

As expected, Yamami Maki quickly sent a message with a selfie in front of a full-length mirror—the girl had changed into her autumn school uniform and was carrying a schoolbag.

"I've recovered! Time to go to school!"

“That’s good.” Jun Matsueda sent a puppy clapping emoji. “I got up very early today and went to Hirano no Hama to watch the sunrise. Mount Fuji looked so pink.”

"At the time, I was thinking, 'I wish I could go with my senior.'"

The girl replied even faster, "I want to see it too!"

"Let's go see it together sometime."

Okay, if there's a chance~

The footsteps stopped in front of Jun Matsueda. He looked up and saw Haruka Mochizuki, who had changed into sportswear, with Tomoka Tomatsu following behind her.

"Matsueda-san, you don't mind taking me along, do you?" the girl asked with a smile.

"What's the use of minding?" Mochizuki Haruka answered for the boy. "Even though I minded, you still came along."

So the cycling team around the lake changed from two to three at the last minute before setting off.

Meanwhile, Yamami Maki was walking out of her house and getting into the car waiting at the door.

After the car door closed, the black sedan started smoothly. The girl put her schoolbag on the seat next to her and took out her phone.

The driver glanced at the rearview mirror and said, "Miss, the master doesn't like you looking at your phone in the car; it's bad for your health."

The girl smiled sweetly, "Could it be just this once in a while, driver, without telling my father?"

The driver fell silent. Yamami Maki said thank you, then opened her phone. The screen still showed her chat with the boy from a few minutes earlier.

"Let's go see it together sometime."

This was the boy's reply. She looked at the small, black text on the screen. Actually, the girl had wanted to say the same thing.

But she hesitated.
