Takikawa, watching from the side, frowned deeply. He subconsciously pulled out his phone and secretly sent a message to Asada: "Family in danger!!! Come immediately!!"

When Ito was pulled out of the classroom by Mori, he knew that he was unlikely to get away with it today.

Mori held Ito's wrist and walked silently through the school building corridor, shutting out the campus noise during lunch break.

Finally, they stopped in front of the light music department.

The classroom for the Light Music Club was quiet, and the sunlight streaming in made it warm.

Mori let go of Ito's hand, walked straight to the piano by the window, and sat down on the piano bench.

She patted the empty seat next to her, and the leather cushion gestured for Ito to sit down.

Ito hesitated for a moment, then went over and sat down.

The piano bench was small, forcing the two of them to be very close. He could smell the faint floral and fruity fragrance emanating from Mori.

“I don’t need to explain.” Mori suddenly spoke, his fingers unconsciously pressing a piano key, producing a crisp single note. “As your girlfriend, I should have faith in you.”

She pressed another key, her tone slightly higher, "Anyway, you won't let me down, right? So... I don't care."

“But I’m not without requests.” Her fingers glided across the keys, producing a series of smooth notes, then she suddenly stopped, turned to Ito, and said, “Sing a song with me.”

Ito paused for a moment: "Now? Here?"

“The song you sang with Asada-senpai the day before yesterday,” Mori’s gaze was fixed on him, brooking no refusal, “Creamy Soda and Crown Lamp.”

She paused, her tone softening slightly, "I've been practicing these past few days, so... you can look forward to it a little!"

Ito opened his mouth, about to say something, when Mori's fingers suddenly pressed down heavily on a chord, the powerful sound instantly drowning out his voice.

"You can't refuse." Mori's voice came through the piano music, carrying a hint of threat, "Otherwise..."

Her fingers suddenly pressed down, and the piano emitted a heavy roar.

“Okay!” Ito replied instinctively, his voice drowned out by the piano music, but he knew Mori had heard him.

Mori's lips curled up slightly, and his fingers returned to the piano keys, as a gentle prelude flowed out.

She took a deep breath and began to sing the first line:

"Cream soda and crown light"

Her voice was clear and gentle, quite different from Asada's explosive singing style; it was more like telling a story in a gentle, flowing manner.

Ito was somewhat surprised, not expecting that she had actually practiced.

"Melting Vanilla"

.......

"It's easy to get rid of it by mistake." (Don't use clumsy lies to get past it)

Her singing technique may not be as refined as Asada's, but her emotional expression is exceptionally delicate, giving a completely different feeling, yet both convey a sense of... loss?

Moving on to the chorus.

"SUNday outside is sunny outside" (SUNday is sunny outside)

"なのに看片ってだらだら in the bed" (But I was waiting for the procrastinating reply in bed)

Ito was unconsciously drawn into her rhythm, softly joining in the chorus.

"Use は无いから2degreeも to send れない" (I can't post it a second time because there is no reason)

"Sleep a little longer"

When he sang this part, Mori's fingers danced on the piano keys, and the melody became light and slightly playful.

In the second verse, Mori's singing is more passionate and emotionally expressive.

"It's a mysterious attitude" (still a mysterious attitude)

"无だ乱わせてるのは" (What confuses me is)

"あなたの事もっと" (Things about you)

"Knowing the truth" (I just want to know the truth)

Her gaze remained fixed on the piano keys, but Ito could sense that the song was being sung for him.

Every word, every note, gently touched his heart.

When she sang "先の見えない駆け引きで....!!!" (With a strategy for the unseen future...!!!), Mori's fingers tightened, the piano music became more passionate, and her singing voice also took on a accusatory tone.

"Today is the worst but also the best Bad day"

"ばってんなんて马に変えてく" (turn the cross into a circle)

When he sang this line, Mori suddenly turned to look at Ito, his eyes filled with loneliness.

In the final chorus, Mori's mood subtly shifts, becoming as if he has a glimmer of hope.

"Cream soda and crown light"

"melting vanilla, are you still pretending not to know?"

"Tell me tomorrow's arrangements"

"This time I have to do it!!!!!!"

In the finale, the melody gradually softens, and Mori's voice becomes gentle and fragile:

"いつまでも君がいないことなんて分かってる" (I know you will never be by my side)

"It's almost time"

"月も见えだしたから" (The moon has also appeared)

The last few lines were almost a murmur to herself, her voice as soft as a sigh:

"Cream soda and crown light"

"Open your eyes after three seconds"

Finally, her fingers gently pressed the last chord, and the singing and piano music slowly dissipated into the air.

"Cream soda and crown light"

"Are you willing to fall in love with me?"

"When two people are together at the same time" (the moment when each other's eyes are facing each other at the same time)

"Melting Vanilla"

As the last note faded, the soft-tone section fell silent.

Mori had his head down, his fingers still lightly resting on the piano keys, and his shoulders were swaying slightly.

Ito stared blankly at her profile, unsure of what to say.

After a long silence, Mori finally raised his head.

Her eyes were a little red, but she had a relieved smile on her face.

“If it were Asada-senpai,” she said softly, her voice still slightly hoarse from singing, “she would definitely be clamoring for dessert to celebrate right now.”

She turned to look at Ito, and suddenly flashed a smile that revealed her little fangs, "Since Hisahito-senpai loves sweets so much... let's go now!"

Looking at her radiant smile, Ito's tension and unease inexplicably dissipated.

He nodded: "Okay."

Just then, the door to the Light Music Club was suddenly pushed open with a "whoosh".

Asada Sakura stood in the doorway, panting, her cheeks flushed, her hands braced against the doorframe; she had clearly run there.

His gaze swept eagerly across the classroom, finally settling on the two people sitting side by side at the piano.

"I want to go too!" she shouted. "Please take me with you!"

Asada?

"Me too!" Takikawa chimed in immediately after, but because she wanted to maintain her image, she didn't run like Asada.

Takikawa?

Ito narrowed his eyes slightly; he roughly understood why Asada was here. Takikawa, feeling guilty under Ito's gaze, glanced guiltily towards the corridor outside, not daring to meet his eyes directly.

"Senior, it's okay~" Mori was surprisingly generous.

"Are you really alright?" Ito leaned closer and whispered, "If there were other people on the date..."

"Huh?" Mori suddenly turned his head, and the two almost bumped heads. "I'm so happy that you would consider these things!"

She reached out and hugged Ito, saying, "But it's okay~ Some things don't change just because of a date."

“Unless you really change your mind, but that’s obviously impossible.” Mori smiled sweetly and tucked a strand of light purple hair behind her ear.

She then got up from the piano bench and walked towards Asada and the other person, asking, "What does Asada-senpai like?"

Seeing how naturally the other person was talking to Asada, Ito subconsciously reached out and touched his temple.

Was that a threat?

Just as Ito was lost in thought, several hurried footsteps came from the corridor. Yoshida Nai rushed into Asada's arms, Eiri hugged Mori, and Shinno and Fujikawa slowly walked into the light music club.

"you?"

They exchanged glances, and then Ikeya Rin suddenly appeared, flicking her dark blue highlighted wolf tail with a serious expression.

"eat!"

Chapter 241 A Double Ice Cream Baptism and Truth or Dare

They went to a popular dessert shop near the school under the guise of a "club dinner".

As for getting out of the school gate smoothly, it was thanks to Teacher Huci who "happened" to pass by and "happened" to support their travel plans.

The store was filled with the aroma of milk powder and relaxing music.

Asada buried her face in the menu first, pointing to the picture of the ice cream cake.

"I want this one!"

Ito glanced at the dessert piled high with cream and frosting, "Calories..."
