He paused, then asked in surprise, "Do we know each other?"

"No, we don't know each other, but you are very famous at school, which is why I know your name and can recognize you."

After listening to Yuta Togashi's explanation, Seishi nodded somewhat blankly.

"I'm actually quite famous at school, but why don't I realize it?"

Aside from being stared at by some girls when walking on the street, it seems like there are no other gazes, right?

"Perhaps it's because they don't have good reputations?" Yukinoshita said quietly.

Clearly, she had heard about Cheng Shi's reputation at school.

"Oh? What were they talking about?"

“I don’t know,” Yukinoshita shook her head. “I never pay attention to these baseless rumors.”

Faced with her honesty, Cheng Shi could only helplessly remark, "You're probably the most useless friend I have."

I know nothing, only temporary theoretical knowledge.

Oh, and there's also temporary guidance.

But after hearing his words, Yukinoshita suddenly looked at him with a strange expression.

"Cheng Shi, we're not exactly friends yet, are we?"

"?"

"how do I say this?"

"Because we don't seem to have done anything that would be considered friendship, right? And we didn't say anything about making friends or anything like that," Yukinoshita said calmly.

Hearing this, Cheng Shi couldn't help but look at her speechlessly.

"So what did you say to Yuihama? If I remember correctly, she didn't say she wanted to be friends with you, did she?"

“No,” Yukinoshita retorted instinctively, “she’s different.”

But Yukinoshita stopped halfway through her sentence.

She suddenly remembered something: "What is the definition of a friend?"

"???"

Upon hearing this question, everyone present was completely baffled.

Cheng Shi, utterly speechless, slapped his face and complained, "So even now you still don't understand whether you've made any friends or not?"

Upon hearing this, Yukinoshita looked slightly guilty: "How could that be?"

"Is Yuihama a friend?"

"Yes." Yukinoshita answered without hesitation.

“Very good,” Cheng Shi nodded, seemingly quite satisfied with her quick response: “And what about me?”

Yukino hesitated.

Seeing her reaction, Cheng Shi couldn't help but feel embarrassed: "Is that so hard to answer?"

Upon hearing this, Yukinoshita was about to explain.

Before she could even formulate her thoughts, the woman who had been listening for a long time couldn't help but speak up.

"Perhaps she felt that this relationship couldn't be labeled as friendship?"

As she spoke, she squinted at Yukinoshita: "Am I right, little girl?"

Yukinoshita was somewhat confused, but seeing that what the other person said coincided with her own thoughts, she nodded slightly.

"Yes."

Upon hearing her answer, the stranger smiled slightly, seemingly pleased with her honesty.

Yuta Togashi, on the other hand, had a look of sudden realization after hearing this.

"So the rumors were true."

"What rumor?" Cheng Shi's sudden appearance startled Togashi Yuta.

"Whoa!"

"Senior Cheng Shi! You're terrifying!"

I was just next to Yukinoshita-senpai a moment ago.

"I'm so sorry," Cheng Shi apologized sincerely. He couldn't help it; he was just too curious. "Could you tell me what that rumor is?"

Yuta was somewhat surprised to hear this: "Huh? Senior, you didn't know?"

Cheng Shi shook his head and casually pointed behind him: "I'm about the same as that guy. I basically don't listen to gossip while I'm in school, so I know less about rumors than she does."

The reason is naturally because Yukinoshita has Yui Hama by her side, while he has no one by his side.

"I see," Yuta said, understanding.

No wonder, you know, this matter has actually been quite a hot topic.

After all, the two at the center of the conversation were quite the prominent figures at school.

"That's right. Recently, many students have seen you and Yukinoshita going to school together, so a large number of people think that you two might already be together."

"So, after hearing what Yukinoshita-senpai said just now..."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Shi already had a general idea of ​​what the rumor was about.

He quickly waved his hand to interrupt and deny it: "No, that's just a rumor. We're not together at all."

"Huh? But..." Yuta subconsciously turned his head and glanced at Yukinoshita.

What that senior just said was practically a direct hint, wasn't it?

Senior, is it really okay for you to deny it so quickly?

But in fact, this is the best explanation.

Upon hearing Narutoshi's words, Yukinoshita nodded without hesitation: "That's right, the reason we often go to school together is simply because we bump into each other on the train."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Shi gave her a rather strange look.

Isn't it because you always pet cats that you ran into them?

Chapter 88 The Showdown of Chuunibyou

However, Cheng Shi didn't intend to expose this small matter to her.

After all, she's already showing signs of not being able to hold back any longer.

Haven't you noticed that Yukino's gaze has been constantly fixed on the cat in Yuuta's hands?

Noticing this, Cheng Shi helplessly stepped forward and whispered a reminder to her: "Hey, hey, pay a little attention to your image in front of your juniors."

"Aren't you a high-class beauty?"

Upon hearing this, Yukinoshita slightly withdrew her gaze from the cat.

But it was only a little.

Cheng Shi is right, she needs to pay attention to her image, but not as some unattainable beauty, just an ordinary senior.

"There's nothing I can do, I just react this way whenever I see a cat. This situation is already considered good," Yukinoshita replied softly.

If it weren't for these people watching over her, she probably would have already had a one-on-one conversation with the cat.

Cheng Shi didn't say much about it.

After all, he had already figured it out over the past few days.

This guy's cat fetish is completely hopeless.

However, the distance and the volume of their voices as they spoke made it sound like they were whispering.

So, Yuta, who had just accepted that the two were not in a romantic relationship, suddenly felt like he had been deceived.

Is this what you two meant by not being together?

Who believes it!?

To be honest, he was really stupid.

If these two really aren't together as they say, then what's with all those supplies the senior has?

The 25 kg label on that bag of rice clearly indicates it's meant for multiple people, right?

You two are probably already living together, aren't you?

Saying they're not together is just fooling idiots!

Just as he was full of complaints, Rikka Takanashi, who was standing next to him, turned her head and looked at him.

Noticing his expression, Rikka couldn't help but ask curiously, "Yuta, what's wrong?"

Yuta shook his head with a complicated expression: "I'm fine, I just suddenly have a deep sense of disgust for stupidity."

Yes, he's the one who's disgusted.

He's so stupid, really.
