I endured the humiliation and humiliation while being besieged by the ghost story elder sister.

Upon discovering that Arisa was glaring fiercely at Hanako, she instantly hid behind a tree trunk, fearing that Arisa might grab her and make her a meal if she was unhappy.

"Strange...how did they find me?"

Although I don't know how I was exposed, fortunately, the two big shots on the other side don't seem to have any intention of pursuing the matter.

She was simply curious as to why the boy who would occasionally visit her room knew those two big shots, and even seemed to have a good relationship with them.

Looking back now, what she said to threaten Ximiao in the bathroom probably seems like a joke to him.

Hanako, increasingly frightened by the thought, suddenly lost all interest in wandering around aimlessly and decided to go back to her room and play games instead.

The group, who were still unaware of Hanako's intentions, stopped paying attention after seeing her leave, assuming she had only looked in their direction out of curiosity.

"There are quite a few strange students here~"

Fanxia couldn't help but complain to him like this.

Chapter Thirty-Five: Control

On the track dedicated to triple jump.

After taking a deep breath, the boy in his gymnastics uniform sprinted forward and then leaped into the sandpit.

"hiss--"

Unsurprisingly, because she landed on her buttocks first, Hio gasped in pain, and her dark blue tight shorts were immediately covered with fine sand.

"Mio, Class 1-A, 5.6 meters tall! Shall we use a second chance?"

After announcing the results, the physical education teacher, following procedure, asked Himo, who was standing in the sandpit, silently patting the sand off her bottom.

"No need, this is fine."

He had no intention of jumping into the sandpit a few more times; those who slack off should be aware of their actions, right?

Back at their resting place, Arisa and Honoka, who were still sitting on their picnic blankets, saw him walking over, rubbing his sore bottom.

The two women couldn't help but laugh at Ximiao's disheveled appearance.

"Mio, didn't you say you were going to do the long jump? Why does it feel like you were thrown into a sandpit?"

"Your little bottom is all bruised, there must be some bruises on it, let Sister Fanxia take a look!"

Listening to what the two were saying, Xi Ling looked annoyed. He still felt that it was better when the two didn't get along... at least they wouldn't tease him together.

After brushing the sand off her back, Ximiao sat down cross-legged and glared at the two of them with annoyance.

In the following days, apart from Arisa occasionally going out to cheer on her friends who were going to participate in competitions, she spent the rest of the time in the shade, teasing the playful Nozomi with Honoka.

Whether it was his imagination or not, Mio noticed that the relationship between Honoka and Arisa, who used to be quite at odds, seemed to have eased a bit.

This should be considered a good thing, right? Probably.

By the time school ended in the afternoon, Hanako, who had been scared away, did not reappear in Nozomi's sight; she probably went back to play video games.

He couldn't help but think so.

However, there is something more important right now...

"Since we're all out of town, let's eat out!"

Fanxia, ​​who had put her sunglasses and mask back on, made this suggestion to him, while glancing at Arisa beside her and giving her a provocative look.

It was as if she was showing off, but she seemed to have forgotten that her opponent was more difficult to deal with than she had imagined.

Arisa grabbed Nozomi's arm, deliberately blew a breath into her ear, and then said.

"Mio~ Can I come along too?"

The girl's soft, sweet voice made him blush. This was the first time Arisa had spoken to him in such a tone...

It’s hard to resist!

After Arisa's maneuvering, Nozomi finally nodded and agreed.

Fanxia, ​​who had witnessed the entire process, was completely dumbfounded.

No, how come this devil is even better at manipulating Mio than she is?

How could this be repaired! [○?｀Д′? ○]

However, it seems I could learn a thing or two from this devil; wouldn't it be a piece of cake to manipulate Mio in the future?

Fanxia, ​​who had managed to appease herself in no time, had an expression that kept changing, leaving Arisa, who was watching her get the short end of the stick, somewhat confused.

The three of them boarded the tram that headed towards Ginza.

It was the same mall where he and Fanxia had dinner last time, but this time, Arisa was with them too.

Hopefully, Arisa won't misunderstand me like last time... Nozomi couldn't help but think.

What should we eat?

Unaware of what the boy was thinking, Fanxia was already looking around, wondering what to eat. If only that devil would treat her!

"How about we have sushi?"

Just then, Arisa suddenly made a suggestion, but looking at the mischievous smile on her face, Mio seemed to have thought of something.

Before Nozomi could refuse, Honoka, whose mind was full of thoughts of taking advantage of Arisa, readily agreed.

Soon, they arrived at a sushi restaurant recommended by Arisa. After hearing that Arisa was treating them today, Honoka picked up the menu and started choosing the most expensive dishes.

Arisa, who saw this scene, didn't care about the otaku snow woman causing trouble. For her, the cost of a meal was just a drop in the ocean.

The important thing is how to guide this silly snow woman to cooperate with me and prepare a "surprise" after-dinner program for Himo.

Unaware that Arisa was digging a hole for herself, Hiyo was also looking at the dazzling menu, wondering what to eat.

After all, this was his first time at a sushi restaurant, and he didn't know the difference between this and conveyor belt sushi.

As you can see, besides them, there were many other students and parents who had met once at school, who came here to eat without even changing out of their school uniforms.

This was the first time he truly grasped the reality that "St. Martin's Private High School" was an elite private high school.

however.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Arisa waved the huge bill in front of him, which was caused by Honoka's insistence on eating expensive food. The boy couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

"W-What's wrong, Arisa? Is the price of the food too outrageous?"

At this point, he glared fiercely at Fanxia, ​​who had an expression of indifference.

"What! Mio, why are you glaring at me? It's clearly because... Arisa said she was treating us and told us to eat whatever we wanted!"

She was still there, speaking with such self-righteousness.

However, Arisa didn't care about these things. She secretly winked at Honoka across from her, as if she wanted to tell her something.

Before Fanxia could figure out what she was trying to do, Arisa slowly spoke to Ximiao.

"You've spent so much of my money, so it's not too much to ask you, Mio, to come shopping with me later, right?"

When she said this, she gave off an air of 'I won't pay the bill if you don't agree,' which made Xi Ling pause in surprise.

But quickly, after realizing what was happening, he nodded and agreed to Arisa's simple condition.

But after they left the restaurant, looking at the route that Arisa was leading them down, and noticing that something seemed off about Himo, they couldn't help but have a bad feeling.

It was at this moment that Fanxia, ​​who was standing to the side, suddenly thought of something.

"Isn't this the way to the lingerie store?"

"Eh?"

Upon hearing this, Ximiao finally understood why Arisa had made that expression earlier; it turned out that this was her plan from the very beginning.

He had nothing to say about this. After eating the lavish meal that Arisa had treated him to, and considering how much she had done for him as her boyfriend, it wouldn't be right for him not to accompany her to the lingerie store.

Thinking of this, Ximiao sighed helplessly and chose to face this cruel reality...

Next, it will likely be time for me to be manipulated by Arisa again.

Chapter Thirty-Six: Childish Competitiveness

"Welcome...?"

The sales assistant, who was leisurely slacking off, immediately perked up when she saw a customer arrive, determined to give the customer the best shopping experience.

But today, when she saw these guests, she was somewhat bewildered.

The customers she usually sees are couples or parents bringing their children to buy underwear.

however.

What's with two girls bringing a skinny-looking pretty boy to a lingerie store?!

Unaware that the shop assistant was still having a brainstorming session, the group of people walked into the store.

Because both of her hands were firmly held in the hands of Arisa and Honoka, Nozomi didn't even have a chance to make an excuse to go to the bathroom to hide.

All around him were colorful and varied styles of underwear, making it hard for him to look away. The blush on his fair face lingered for a long time.

Whenever Mio sees the black lace-trimmed lingerie, she can't help but recall the time she took Arisa's clothes off at her place.

Suddenly, the boy felt his mouth was dry and he felt very uncomfortable.

"Mio~ Which color do you think looks better?"

Seeing that Hiyo looked uncomfortable, Arisa, having achieved her goal, casually picked up a piece of underwear, held it up against herself, and didn't forget to ask her shy boyfriend for his opinion.

Seeing this, Fanxia, ​​not to be outdone, followed suit and picked up a light blue lace bra, holding it up to her chest.

However, it could be because she was wearing sunglasses and a mask, or perhaps because the two of them had taken a bath together…

When the boy looked at her, his expression was much more natural, which made Fanxia feel a sense of frustration.
