My anime/manga fandom can't be that lazy.

"Her name is Kanna, she's my friend's sister. I just happened to run into her on the street and then offered her something to eat."

I'm too lazy to even comment on the "Western Lord" that Kasumigaoka Utaha refers to. Let her call me whatever she wants, she won't change it no matter how many times she says it.

"a little?"

Eriri's mouth dropped open slightly. Was this really just "a little"? The food in front of Kanna was even more than she had eaten, but the other person looked like an elementary school student.

"I'm Kanna, nice to meet you."

Kanna, dressed in ethnic clothing, greeted Kasumigaoka Utaha and Sawamura Eriri in front of her. Everyone loves cute children, even the sharp-tongued Kasumigaoka Utaha.

"This child is so cute, call me 'sister' so I can hear it."

Eriri's bright blue eyes sparkled. She felt that Kanna's little face was quite soft and wanted to touch it, but she was afraid of scaring her, so she was quite conflicted.

Kanna didn't call out directly, but first glanced at Dongfang Bai, seemingly seeking his opinion. Besides Tohru and Kobayashi, Kanna was closest to Dongfang Bai, so naturally she would follow his lead.

"Call her Sawamura-neechan, and that one over there is Kasumigaoka-neechan."

Dongfang Bai smiled and said, "Sure enough, I'm raising a daughter. My daughter has to ask for my opinion before she can call people. This feeling makes me both laugh and cry."

"Hello, Sawamura-neechan and Kasumigaoka-neechan."

Kanna nodded and greeted the two people in front of her, but immediately buried her head in her food after that.

"Why is the Western Lord so close to this child? Could he be your illegitimate son?"

"Hey, I'm only 17 years old."

Dongfang Bai rolled his eyes. Kanna was older than his ancestors. Kasumigaoka Utaha liked to tease him with her words, but he wasn't as easy to tease as Eriri. Her witty remarks were just right.

"Oh, speaking of which, I saw Kirisu-sensei go out earlier. Does Saikai-kun know anything about it?"

"It's just that Ms. Kirisu lost her house key, so I was planning to invite her to dinner, but then I found it and left."

Upon hearing this, both Kasumigaoka Utaha and Sawamura Eriri inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be just such a small matter; they had thought it was something serious...

"Is that so? That makes sense. Even someone like Xifangjun, who has a harem at school, wouldn't try to seduce his teachers too."

"...???"

Dongfang Bai was stunned. When did he end up with a harem at school? But upon closer reflection, he realized he did have many close female friends at school. He seemed to know all four members of the light music club, plus several popular characters from Toyosaki, and they were all on good terms with him…

"Final exams are coming up soon, aren't you worried, Kasumigaoka-senpai?"

"There's no need for that. After all, I'm not like that arrogant person next to me. I can just write whatever I want for exams."

"Hey?! Kasumigaoka Utaha, what do you mean by this?!"

Eriri suddenly stood up, feeling offended again. What did she mean by "different from me"? Was her academic performance really that bad?

Although her academic performance couldn't compare to Dongfang Bai, who consistently ranked first in the grade, she was still consistently in the top 100. If it weren't for English holding her back, she might have even made it into the top 20.

"Ah, am I wrong? Sawamura-kun, who is of mixed Japanese and American heritage, has never passed English since the start of the semester, right?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's sarcasm was quite pronounced. Upon hearing this, Eriri trembled with anger, her body covered in cold sweat and her hands and feet ice-cold despite the sweltering heat. Her abysmal English grades had always been her weakness, and to be directly mocked like this...

She was furious, but didn't know how to refute him. Kasumigaoka Utaha had been the top student in her grade for two years, and she couldn't even beat her in terms of grades.

I'm so angry!!!

"Kasumigaoka Utaha... Kasumigaoka!!!"

"My name isn't Kasumigaoka Utaha. Can't you just call me by my name properly? Does Sawamura-kun not only not know English, but he doesn't even know Japanese?"

puff.

Eriri lay listlessly on the sofa, while Dongfang Bai stepped in to smooth things over: "Alright, alright, stop arguing. Why do you two always have to fight whenever you meet? Were you rivals in love in your past lives?"

Dongfang Bai's sarcastic remarks were quite sharp, while Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled playfully and didn't say anything more. Eriri, on the other hand, sulked and leaned back on the sofa with her arms crossed.

These two... were rivals in love not only in their past lives, but also in this one.

"Eri, is your English really bad?"

Dongfang Bai asked with some curiosity. In his memory, Eriri's father was an American diplomat, so it was very strange that he was bad at English. However, she seemed to have always spoken Japanese since she was a child.

"Hmph~ Yeah, so what?"

Eriri snorted and turned her head away. No matter what, her English grades were extremely poor. It was a fact that she had never passed a single English test since the start of the semester, and she couldn't understand any languages ​​other than Japanese.

"Do you need me to tutor you? Actually, I'm doing pretty well in my studies."

Dongfang Bai smiled slightly, and Eriri was immediately stunned. Dongfang Bai actually offered to help her with her studies?! This was a great opportunity that she absolutely couldn't waste.

However, Eriri's personality made it impossible for her to agree immediately. Instead, she looked disdainful and said, "Hmph, I don't need it, but if you insist, it's not impossible..."

“Hoshino-kun, Sawamura-san seems very unwilling, so please don’t make things difficult for her.”

Just then, Kasumigaoka Utaha, who had been calm, suddenly opened her lips and spoke, a sentence that immediately shut Eriri up.

That guy Kasumigaoka is definitely trying to ruin my plans!!

Eriri was furious. Although she said that, she actually really wanted Dongfang Bai to teach her, preferably in a quiet place where no one was around...

"Is that so? In that case, never mind..."

Dongfang Bai shook his head helplessly, but he could tell that Eriri actually wanted him to tutor her, but it was just her being a tsundere.

In a short time, Dongfang Bai's quirky personality gradually emerged. He found it incredibly cute that Eriri wanted something but said the opposite of what she meant, and that she would look disappointed and sad when he backed down.

However, while she is indeed very cute, he felt a little guilty about constantly teasing Eriri, so he only teased her a little.

"Huh?! Wait...wait a minute~"

When Eriri heard that Dongfang Bai wanted to give up, she immediately shouted anxiously, "This kind of opportunity is very rare. We must hold on to it tightly and not let it go!"

"What's wrong?"

Dongfang Bai looked puzzled. Eriri stared at him, stammering for a long time without being able to say a word.

Even Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was standing next to her, couldn't help but smile. As expected, being a tsundere is a hassle.

"Well... I guess I'm still a bit bad at English. If Bai wants to help me, I... I'll mercifully accept!"

Have great mercy...

"Thank you so much."

Dongfang Bai wore a subtle expression. So, it turned out that he was being 'merciful' by helping her with her homework? However, he knew that this was just Eriri's excuse; she actually wanted his help.

"Tsk."

Kasumigaoka Utaha clicked her tongue slightly. Suddenly, she felt inexplicably annoyed, her right leg trembling uncontrollably, and she even had an urge to kick Dongfang Bai...

"Then you can take your time with your tutoring, Sawamura-kun. I need to go back and continue writing my manuscript."

Kasumigaoka Utaha closed her laptop. If Dongfang Bai had been sitting next to her, he would have noticed that her Word document was filled with the words "annoying".

"See you at school tomorrow, Kasumigaoka-senpai."

Dongfang Bai greeted Kasumigaoka Utaha, who then stood up and suddenly leaned her upper body down, bringing her cheek close to Dongfang Bai's. The two faces were now very close.

"Varied……!?"

From Eriri's perspective, Kasumigaoka Utaha's face was almost touching Higashikaku's. From that position, it looked like a kiss. How could that guy be so bold?

"Hmm~ Western junior, I'll need your help to take a look at the newly written game text later."

Kasumigaoka Utaha's lips curled slightly, then she pulled her upper body back up. Looking at Eriri's expression of impending ascension, she suddenly felt all her displeasure vanish and a sense of relief wash over her.

"……no problem."

Dongfang Bai nodded. To be honest, his heart had raced when Kasumigaoka Utaha suddenly got so close. After all, it was amazing that such a beautiful woman was suddenly so close to him that they could feel each other's breath.

This is definitely a huge shock for a boy of this age.

"Xiaxiaxiaxia..."

Eriri's mouth was slightly open, as if her soul had left her body. She could feel her whole body going limp, and the pupils of both eyes were dilated and unfocused, completely lost in a daze.

"~Then I'm off, Western junior~"

Kasumigaoka Utaha, dragging her ultra-thin laptop in her right hand, quickly left the restaurant, leaving Eriri standing there in a daze.

"Bai, why did she approach you just now?"

Kanna was a little confused. She couldn't understand why this was happening. She was eating perfectly fine when suddenly that human was moving closer to Dongfang Bai.

"I don't know either, maybe it's because it makes it easier to hear each other when I speak like this."

Dongfang Bai smiled awkwardly, feeling that he shouldn't say such things to the pure-hearted Xiao Kang.

"Oh~"

Kanna nodded, then let out a cute little burp. She ate all the food on the table by herself. She wanted to try anything new and unfamiliar.

So, without realizing it, they ate all of their neighbor's food.

"(Wang Qianhao) Eriri, Eriri?"

Dongfang Bai gently shook Eriri's shoulder. She seemed to still be in a daze. If Dongfang Bai hadn't shaken her awake, she might have remained in a daze for a long time.

"That guy from Kasumigaoka actually!?"

Eriri was furious. Even she, who considered herself Dongfang Bai's best male friend, hadn't done anything so intimate, yet that guy actually…

"She just came up to me and talked about the game."

Dongfang Bai glanced at Eriri with a helpless look. She was far too emotional. Kasumigaoka could easily provoke her and she immediately fell for it. No wonder she could never beat Kasumigaoka Utaha.

"I see...that guy!"

Eriri realized she had been teased again, but could only grit her teeth, her little fang quite noticeable.
