Am I being simulated by their love affair.

Chapter 90: Prelude to the Cultural Festival
At the second meeting of the Cultural Festival Executive Committee, Jun Matsueda lowered his head and looked at the documents in his hand. Although the chairman was still speaking, many people were secretly looking at him.

Ever since the news of Jun Matsueda winning the gold medal at the National Geography Olympiad was announced, the already high level of attention he received had increased even more. Therefore, in crowded situations like this, he would generally keep his head down and act as if nothing had to do with him.

Unlike his efforts to keep a low profile, Jun Matsueda has recently occasionally heard people from other classes talking about Tomatsu Touka, mostly talking about how the boys who confessed to her were coldly rejected and ruthlessly belittled.

After the news spread, the number of boys confessing their love to her did not decrease, and the number of people watching the fun increased. Recently, Mizushima Miya often talked about this matter after class, and said that the academic workload at Yuqiu High School was too light, which was why there were so many idle people.

"Each class is requested to submit its cultural festival activity plan to Tsushima Kou by the 18th. Each club is also requested to submit its program or activity schedule to Yamami Maki by the same deadline. Please remember all of this. This meeting is now closed."

After the meeting, Jun Matsueda did not return to the classroom, but waited at the door for Yamami Maki to come out.

Mochizuki Haruka is the executive committee member of Class 1. Their class is decided by drawing lots, and the girl's luck is obviously not very good.

She didn't wait for Jun Matsueda, but just looked at him again before leaving and went downstairs.

Tsushima Kou and Yamami Matsuki walked out the door together, and Matsueda Jun followed them. Both of them waved and greeted him.

"Matsueda must have been under everyone's attention recently, right? I won't bother you anymore. The News Department won't be organizing any big events, and we'll notify you in the group when the time comes." Tsushima Kou made a photo-taking gesture to him and left.

"Congratulations to Matsueda-san for winning the gold medal in geography." The girl's smile was sincere. "Xin-chan specifically asked me to tell you that she's secured a spot in the international competition, and she won this time."

He remembered what Kuroba Shin said about the concern between them. Since Senior Yamami could call her Shin-chan, it seemed that their relationship was not that bad.

"Thank you, Yamami-senpai. Please congratulate her for me. I have something to ask you this time."

Yamami Maki paused as she walked down the stairs. Matsueda Jun turned to look at her, "Yamami-senpai?"

"It's okay, let's keep going." Her eyebrows curved, and a hint of joy rose in her heart. This seemed to be the first time that Matsueda Jun asked her for help.

"Mr. Matsueda, what do you want to talk to me about?" She quietly distanced herself from Jun Matsueda, but she still had to avoid suspicion.

"Look, I asked around, and it seems Asai-senpai used to be in the wind band. I wonder if you're familiar with her?"

The girl's heart skipped a beat. "Well, she's familiar with me, right? Matsueda-san, is there anything you need from her?"

Did Asai-san really succeed? Is it true that Matsueda-san is attracted to playboy-type girls?

A bunch of disappointment emerged in Yamamiya Maki's heart, and she immediately pulled out this weed that shouldn't have appeared.

"No, actually she confessed to me some time ago, and I rejected her properly. But the senior is still pursuing me in school, and I'm a little troubled." Jun Matsueda had a headache. What he least wanted to deal with was someone who ignored the other person's attitude, especially in public.

"Is there any way for Senior Sister to persuade her?"

He'd already said all the nice things about that beautiful senior. Asai-san was smart enough to only approach him in public. If he'd just given her a cold shoulder or rejected her in a more awkward way, he'd easily be labeled "disrespectful" or "arrogant." This applies to both men and women.

"Well - I'll try my best to find a way." Although Yamami Moki didn't know what to do, she still agreed.

She had always thought this handsome junior was almost omnipotent: excellent grades, gold medals in competitions, proficient in basketball and drums, and very mature in his dealings with others. This was the first time he had revealed his "incompetent" side in front of her, and the girl was secretly delighted.

If I reject him, he will find someone else, right? For the sake of my image as a junior, I must agree, Yamami Moki said to herself.

"Thank you, senior." Just as the two were about to part ways at the top of the stairs on the third floor, a group of people rushed into the stairwell from the corridor. Seeing that the boy at the front was about to bump into Yamami Maki, Matsueda Jun reached out and grabbed her arm, pulling the girl behind him.

"Sorry!" The boys didn't even slow down, and the girls with smaller steps followed behind.

After confirming that Yamami Maki was standing firmly, Matsueda Jun released her hand and said, "I'm sorry, Senior, I don't know what these people are in such a hurry to do. They didn't even look at the road."

The two watched them hurried downstairs, shouting something like "Found it, found it".

"The second-year students have been too idle lately. During lunch break and after school, they go to find out where Tomoka will be confessed to, and then wait to see the confessor make a fool of himself." Yamami Maki's expression was also a little unnatural, partly because of the amusing behavior of the onlookers, and partly because Matsueda Jun had just grabbed her hand.

"Is there such a thing?" Jun Matsueda was also surprised, but when he thought about how his rumors had spread so quickly before, he suddenly understood.

There are really a lot of people who are both idle and gossipy.

"I hope the cultural festival can help them consume some of their energy that they have nowhere to put it." Yamami Moki thanked him and walked into the third floor.

After Matsueda Jun returned to the classroom, he found that Tomatsu Tomoka was indeed not there. It seemed that she had gone to reject someone else's confession again.

He walked up to the stage alone and announced to his classmates during lunch break that preparations for the cultural festival were about to begin. If they had any suggestions, they could directly come to him or the deputy class monitor.

After Matsueda Jun returned to his seat, he sighed subconsciously. Why did he feel like a spinning top lately?
He thought about it and realized that not only was he working around the clock, but he also didn't get any money other than competing, and he had an extreme lack of sense of achievement.

He hadn't worked for a long time and he missed it. Working was the best. It didn't require much mental effort, and even sweating could be considered fitness. And the daily pay was no problem.

Recently, fewer people have been looking for him at the escape house. After the president of Aoyuan added employees, they will only look for him when they really need people. After all, it will be very troublesome if something happens to minors.

The cell phone in the drawer vibrated at an inopportune time. Jun Matsueda opened Line and saw a message from Laisu Yangshi.

Kirakira Yoshi wasn't like the other girls he added, whose profile pictures were animals or cute girls. Hers was just a line of pink and gold chibi font: Kirakira, which also served as her account name.

"Matsueda! Teach me how to work a part-time job! I can't be an idol anymore!" The girl sent a kowtow emoticon.

"You're quitting the group again?" Matsueda Jun thought about it and felt that this was a good thing. She could stay at home and cook.

"No, I'll come find you after school, we'll talk when we meet!"

So after school, Matsueda Jun walked out of the school gate and saw the girl sitting behind the glass window of the dessert shop.

Kurusu Yoshi was still wearing the clothes he wore when he was an idol, a modern-style light blue and white kimono, with white lace rabbit ears on his head, and he was sipping the drink on the table.

The exquisite girl sat silently behind the glass window, like a doll in a shop window, and everyone who passed by had to take a look at her before leaving.

When Jun Matsueda walked into the store, the girl immediately stood up and waved to him vigorously, smiling like a big golden retriever.

"Pine branches!"

So the people who were peeking at her were filled with regret, it seemed that the doll girl in the window had found her owner.
