A voice came from behind him, a name only one person would use to address him.

Fujiwara Matsu froze on one side, and Shiratori Saki was so frightened by the sound that she let go.

Turning his head, he saw Chiya Mio looking at him with a smile, but no matter how he looked at it, the smile was terrifying.

"Mizakura, what a coincidence."

Her gaze lingered on Fujiwara Matsu for a moment before shifting to Shiratori Saki, her eyes conveying a clear meaning—Saki, you have this side to you too?

The group of girls who had been following her slowly caught up with her from behind.

This suddenly escalated the situation considerably. Shiratori Saki instinctively tried to escape, but Fujiwara Matsu held her hand tightly, preventing her from fleeing.

But after confirming that Shiratori Saki had calmed down, Fujiwara Matsu subtly released her hand.

At this moment, he couldn't let the group of people behind him misunderstand his relationship with Shiratori Saki.

This is bad for him, for Chiya Mio, and for Shiratori Saki.

Shiratori Saki was trembling at first, but after taking a few deep breaths, she gradually calmed down and stood quietly to the side.

"Why weren't you told about today's arrangements?"

Actually, she knew very well what their plans were for today, but...

She noticed the bracelet on Fujiwara Matsuru's wrist and the five-colored cord around her neck that matched the bracelet.

Did Saki give this to him?

If it were a normal day, a private encounter, she could have done so much: stepped forward, grabbed Fujiwara Matsu by the neck, and questioned him, coldly threatening him…

But today, in front of the people she invited, she couldn't do that.

In addition, she also had to consider the situation of Fujiwara no Matsu and Shiratori Saki, and couldn't let them also become hostile towards him.

Fujiwara Matsu glanced at the others behind her and spoke softly with a smile:

"I already made plans with you, but didn't you say you were going to be with everyone?"

A murmur of discussion arose behind me, and Fujiwara Matsu offered a convenient way out.

But she wasn't satisfied; she only stepped on the steps that Fujiwara Matsu had offered.

"But you didn't mention that you also made plans with Saki, did you?"

"Didn't Sazaki-senpai tell you? Didn't we agree to go together as a group of three?"

"Three people? That won't do. I don't want the three of us together."

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Chiya Mio leaned close to Fujiwara Matsu, grabbed his hand, and looked up.

At this moment, Shiratori Saki glanced at the two of them, put her hands behind her back, and quietly clenched the hem of her skirt.

She didn't want to be discovered, but Chiya Mio glanced at her and noticed her actions.

"I want to go on a date alone, Matsu."

"Who knew you two would come out together?"

Fujiwara Matsu's eye twitched. He had offered two ways out, and although Chiya Mio had taken them both times, she still hadn't given up asking questions.

Behind Chiya Mio, someone had already taken out their phone to record it.

Although they didn't say anything, the pressure they exerted on the three of them was immense.

"We've already made plans in advance, I can't break my promise, can I?"

"Besides, Saki-senpai helped me pick out a gift for you last time, and isn't this time you helping her pick out a gift too? It would be too much of me to stand her up, wouldn't it?"

"Let's go on a date another time."

At this moment, Chiyo glanced at Shiratori Saki again, then turned back.

"How about a date alone next time, Matsu? You promised. No taking it back!"

Chiya Mio smiled, but there wasn't much of a smile in her eyes.

What the two of them did made her unable to laugh.

Turning her head, Chiya Mio smiled at the others behind her. They were all very perceptive of the atmosphere; aside from whispering amongst themselves, no one said anything to interrupt their conversation.

"Everyone, you guys go ahead first. I'll chat with Song for a bit, then I'll catch up."

"I canceled my date with Matsu, everyone, please wait for me!"

Her gaze shifted to the person taking pictures with their phone.

"And Yueling, you can't post those photos!"

"It's just that I rarely see you act cute like that with other people, Chiyo. Chiyo is so cute when she acts cute, I want to take a picture of it."

Chiya Mio gave a feigned snort of displeasure and glanced coquettishly at the girl.

Then, holding Fujiwara Matsu's hand, they said goodbye to the others and walked forward, while the three of them stayed behind.

As the group walked away, the smile on Chiyo Mio's face vanished.

Standing in front of the two, looking at them, he glanced at Fujiwara no Matsu, then turned his gaze to Shiratori Saki.

"Matsu? When did you arrange to go on a date with Saki? How come I didn't know?"

As she spoke, she hooked the bracelet on Fujiwara no Matsushita's hand with her finger, her eyes darting between the two of them.

"Sazaki, when did you make this? I didn't know you had such skillful hands. I've never received a gift like this before."

Shiratori Saki had regained her composure, though she was still clutching her skirt behind her back as she faced Chiya Mio's question.

Before Fujiwara Matsu could react, she spoke first: "This is a return gift I promised Fujiwara-kun last time. Miss, if you like it, I'll have another one made later."

Following Shiratori Saki's words, Fujiwara Matsu spoke up, combining words of deception and tact:

"Sazaki-senpai at least gave me a gift in return, Misaki, you haven't given me one yet!"

"A return gift? I'll give it to you next time we go on a date alone."

"As for the gift Saki gave me, I'm really looking forward to it. Is it the same as Matsu's?"

"But you still haven't said why you two went on a 'date' alone together?"

"No, it's a date."

Shiratori Saki took the initiative to speak, her expression showing no displeasure, but rather quite serious, as if she were expressing her true feelings.

"What is that?"

Chiya Misaki moved closer to her, looking her in the eye. The two were pressed together, creating a somewhat beautiful scene that Fujiwara Matsu dared not look at.

"Sazaki, you are my maid, and Matsu is mine too."

"I won't allow you to get too close without my knowledge."

"Do you understand, Sazaki? Do you understand, Matsu?"

Shiratori Saki moved her hands from behind her back to in front of her, biting her lip:

"Besides being Miss's maid, Misaki, I am also Shiratori Saki."

"Therefore, I feel I have the right to do what I want to do."

The atmosphere between the two intensified the moment Shiratori Saki spoke.

"What rights?"

Fujiwara Matsu reached out and stood between the two, separating them:

"It's normal for Sazaki-senpai to have things she wants to do sometimes."

"Mizakura, haven't you always been supportive?"

He tried to use the same attitude that Chiya Mio had shown him before to resolve the conflict between the two.
