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

Once on the highway, Sawako Yamanaka was completely letting loose. She kept the accelerator pressed down non-stop; who knows how much gas she wasted on this trip.

"That's why we told you to fasten your seatbelts."

Dongfang Bai sighed slightly. He remembered the last time Yamanaka Sawako drove the four members of the Light Music Club to Amagi, she almost made those four girls faint. That showed how reckless she was.

That's only one aspect. Normally, she has to worry about speeding when driving, but once she gets on the highway, the 'seal is broken,' and the smile on her face never disappears.

"Is this Chiba Village? It feels so far from Toyonosaki."

Dongfang Bai looked around curiously. This was his first time here. Even when he went to Chiba a few times, he would never go this far, let alone this time he had taken the highway to get here.

Chiba Village's environment is like the countryside, surrounded by forests and mountains, but the air is also quite fresh and pleasant, making people feel relaxed and happy. Dongfang Bai took a deep breath and smiled slightly.

It seems to remind me of the time on Fairy Island.

"The teacher leading the team from Zongwu High School is also my friend. I'll introduce her to you all later, 790."

Sawako Yamanaka chuckled softly with one eye closed, but then she suddenly remembered something and said to Dongfang Bai, "By the way, don't even think about making a move against her, okay?"

"I didn't!"

Dongfang Bai's face turned black. It felt like everyone thought he was a bulldozer. He wasn't a scumbag at all, at least he would never abandon the person he liked.

"Ah, here it comes."

Sawako Yamanaka's eyes lit up, and she waved towards the distance. Then a black car arrived, and the first person to get out was a woman with long black hair, a tall figure, and a calm expression, somewhat resembling Mafuyu Kirisu.

She spotted Sawako Yamanaka at a glance, a smirk playing on her lips, and walked right over: "Yo, Sawako."

"Xiao Jing~ It's been a long time."

This person is Shizuka Hiratsuka, the teacher at Soubu High School. She is also very beautiful and can be considered a great beauty. Her age is probably similar to that of Sawako Yamanaka.

"These are your students?"

"Yeah, this kid is someone I admire, what do you think?"

Sawako Yamanaka chuckled twice and patted Dongfang Bai on the shoulder, but he didn't say a word and could only stand there awkwardly laughing.

"Not bad, her appearance is acceptable."

Hiratsuka Shizuka glanced at Dongfang Bai and then looked away, not paying much attention to him. Then, several people got out of her car one after another, one man and two women, all of whom Dongfang Bai did not recognize.

But he was a little surprised when he got to the last person. The familiar black-haired beauty came down with a cold expression, like a snowflake in winter, standing out from the lively crowd around her.

With her elegant appearance, delicate features, fair and translucent skin, deep blue eyes, and long black hair tied with a red ribbon, she is an absolutely rare and stunningly beautiful girl. Her demeanor exudes the graceful and poised air of a well-bred young lady.

"Xiaoxue?"

Dongfang Bai couldn't help but let out a soft exclamation. The other person was also taken aback, noticing their direction, and replied, "...Bai?"

The two never expected to meet here. The joint volunteer activity between Toyosaki and Soubu High School already had an extremely high probability of randomly selecting one person from so many classes, and to make matters worse, the other person also had Yukino Yukinoshita.

Dongfang Bai even began to doubt whether it was a divine decree.

"Xiaoyu?! You're calling me so intimately, you must be Yukino Yukinoshita!"

Eriri immediately realized the other person's identity. Like Dongfang Bai, although the two of them had met when they were young, they always got along with each other because of Dongfang Bai.

After Dongfang Bai returned to the Celestial Empire, the two of them had no contact with each other. It should be said that one of them was a proud and aloof person who would never take the initiative to look for someone, while the other was a cold and indifferent snow woman who would never be enthusiastic in looking for friends.

As a result, even though the two people lived not particularly far apart, they hadn't seen each other for several years.

"Is Sawamura still around...?"

Yukino Yukinoshita narrowed her eyes. She was already quite surprised to encounter Dongfang Bai here, but the fact that Eriri was also there made her feel a little uncomfortable.

The two of them had incompatible personalities and never really got along...

"I didn't expect to run into you here! Long time no see!"

Dongfang Bai smiled and went up to greet Yukino Yukinoshita. She was a student at Soubu High School, so she was naturally wearing a uniform, along with a mini plaid skirt and black knee-high socks with white trim.

She has a slender and tall figure, and is practically perfect except for her lack of breasts.

"Excuse me, do you know Yukino... Yukinoshita?"

Before Yukino Yukinoshita could reply, a man whom Dongfang Bai did not recognize suddenly blocked their path. He had yellowish-brown hair, looked quite handsome and kind, and exuded an aura that Dongfang Bai found extremely distasteful.

"Ok?"

Not only Dongfang Bai, but also Eriri and Gabriel behind him felt a strange dislike for him. Even though it was their first meeting, the 'aura' emanating from him was very unpleasant.

"Yes, Bai is my friend, what's wrong?" Yukino Yukinoshita walked past the man with the tan hair and stood in front of Dongfang Bai. She didn't have a good impression of him either.

"This……"

He felt a little embarrassed, never expecting that Yukino Yukinoshita, who had always been completely aloof from getting close to anyone, would actually have male friends.

That's absolutely a fantasy!

"It has indeed been a long time since we last met."

Yukino Yukinoshita gave a soft snort. Dongfang Bai rarely took the initiative to contact her, which made her a little unhappy, so she didn't give him a friendly look, making him feel a bit awkward.

"Sorry, I just wanted to ask you out but didn't know what reason to use..."

Dongfang Bai scratched his cheek. He couldn't very well just ask her to go on a date and see a movie with him, could he? Yukino Yukinoshita, with her even thinner skin than Eriri, would definitely blush.

"Well, never mind, Chiba is indeed a bit far."

Yukino Yukinoshita sighed softly. If it weren't for her family insisting that she attend Soubu High School, saying that "members of the Yukinoshita family must attend excellent schools," she would have been sent there.

She actually wanted to go to Toyonosaki more.

"It's quite surprising that you know Yukinoshita."

Hiratsuka Shizuka stared at Dongfang Bai in shock. She even doubted whether she had seen the right person. Was this really Yukino Yukinoshita? She and the other person addressed each other with intimate nicknames, as if they had known each other for a long time.

No student at Soubu High School is unaware of how cold and aloof Yukino Yukinoshita is. She is known as the "Snow Woman" and has no friends other than one girl, let alone any interaction with boys.

But now, she's actually addressing a boy her own age in such an intimate tone?

"Yes, we've known each other since we were kids."

Dongfang Bai nodded and explained. Eriri and Yukino exchanged a glance, their eyes seemingly sparking a connection.

From a young age, they had been comparing themselves to each other, especially about who Dongfang Bai met first. However, they met Dongfang Bai at the same time, so it was impossible to compare them.

So the only remaining competition is who spends the most time with Dongfang Bai. Unfortunately, one is a 'snow maiden' and the other is a 'tsundere,' neither of them would take the initiative...

If they had been more ambitious when they were younger, they might be engaged by now.

"Childhood sweethearts?!"

Suddenly, a pink-haired girl, wearing her school uniform as an apron tied around her waist, walked over excitedly, her curiosity impossible to hide.

"she is……?"

"Hey hello~ I'm Yuigahama Yui, and I'm Yuki's friend."

(Zhao Nuo's)

“Yuigahama-san…” Yukino Yukinoshita frowned slightly, but did not break free, which was obviously a tacit agreement.

The pink-haired girl with a bun named Yui Yuigahama grabbed Yukino Yukinoshita's arm, and the two seemed quite intimate, which surprised both Higashikata and Eriri.

Good heavens! Yukino Yukinoshita actually has a friend?! Unbelievable!

You have to understand that a few years ago, she had absolutely no friends except for Dongfang Bai and Eriri.

"Hello, my name is Dongfang Bai. It's nice to meet you."

Dongfang Bai smiled and greeted the other person in return. Since the other person was willing to be friends with someone like Yukino, who had such a 'conflicted' personality, they probably weren't a bad person.

People who have a good relationship with Yukino are usually not ordinary people.

"Hey! Bai Jun is Xiao Xue's childhood friend?! Is he? Is he?"

Yui Yuigahama addressed Dongfang Bai as "Bai-kun" the moment they met for the first time. This overly familiar attitude and enthusiasm completely overwhelmed Dongfang Bai, who felt a fine sweat breaking out on his forehead.

He really isn't good at dealing with this kind of enthusiastic person.

"That's it."

"Yukinoshita and Shiro have only known each other for a short time; they only knew each other when they were children."

At this moment, Eriri suddenly interrupted, her chest slightly raised, exuding confidence. Dongfang Bai clearly sensed that Yukino Yukinoshita's expression turned cold.

Are these two about to get into a feud again after all these years?

"Hmph, it's Sawamura-kun who's the one. How long have you known Shiro?"

"It's been at least longer than Yukinoshita. When Shiro first came to Japan, I was in the same school as him, and we saw each other almost every day!"

This left Yukinoshita somewhat speechless. Her school, Soubu High, was far away from Toyonosaki. As the saying goes, "being near the water tower gives you an advantage," and Eriri and Higashikata Haku were so close, giving them a much greater advantage.

If only Dongfang Bai had been willing to come to Zongwu High School back then.

"Ah, don't mind her, she's Sawamura Spencer Eriri, and she's also a friend of mine and Koyuki's. 790"

"Who is she friends with?" the two girls, one in gold and one in black, asked in unison.

As Dongfang Bai explained to Yui Yuigahama beside him, he noticed that her eyes were full of shock. Both Yukino Yukinoshita and Eriri were extremely rare and super beautiful girls, yet they were arguing about 'who has known Dongfang Bai longer'.

What kind of scene is this?!

"That can't be..."

Hayato Hayama was completely dumbfounded. Why couldn't he get close to Yukino Yukinoshita no matter what he did, while Higashikata Bai could be so intimate with Yukino without doing anything at all?

"...?"
