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

"Ah... wh, what's wrong, Hui?"

Fumino Furuhashi hurriedly realized what was going on, and Megumi Kato immediately saw through her thoughts. She probably wanted to dance with Dongfang Bai, but she didn't dare to go over because of too many concerns.

Eriri and Mio Akiyama are both her friends, and she's a little reluctant to go and snatch them away...

The legend that men and women who dance together at a bonfire party will eventually become lovers has a special meaning, whether it is true or not. So it is definitely false to say that Fumino Furuhashi did not want to dance with Higashikata.

"Does Fumino want to dance with Haku-kun?"

"Huh? No, how could that be..." Fumino Furuhashi's face stiffened, as if her secret had been exposed. Although she kept explaining, anyone with eyes could see that she was guilty.

"~Haku-kun has already jumped around with two people. The bonfire party doesn't last long, so if you don't go now, it'll be too late." Kato Megumi chuckled, and her words made Furuhashi Fumino glance at her in surprise.

"But..." Fumino Furuhashi seemed a little conflicted. She didn't know if she really liked Dongfang Bai, but she felt that she would definitely regret it if she didn't go now.

"Yeah, he's done. Be careful he doesn't beat you again." Kato Megumi said, gently nudging Furuhashi Fumino. This was an important memory from the school trip, and a slip-up could lead to a long period of regret.

"Um……!"

Fumino Furuhashi nodded, then patted her cheeks hard. Both cheeks turned a little red from patting too hard. Although it hurt, she mustered her courage, stood up, and walked quickly toward Dongfang Bai (Money).

Kato Megumi simply sat there, a faint smile playing on her lips, so subtle that it was almost imperceptible unless you looked closely.

……

"Bai...Bai-kun!" Fumino Furuhashi was a little nervous, and her tone was a bit strange. Seeing her like this, Dongfang Bai found it a bit funny and asked.

"Just call me Shiro, what's wrong with Fumino?"

"I can't find any friends to dance with, so why would I want to dance with them for free?" Fumino Furuhashi made up a reason to cover up her shyness. Although she didn't believe it herself, it could at least ease the awkwardness.

"With utmost sincerity and willingness."

Dongfang Bai extended his left hand towards Fumino Furuhashi. He had already decided to dance with several people at the bonfire party, and he had felt a little strange that he couldn't see Fumino Furuhashi anywhere, but he didn't expect her to appear on her own.

Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Bonfire Party Ends [Please Subscribe Automatically]

Fumino Furuhashi and Hikaru Touhou were in the same group, so no one thought anything was wrong when she went to find Hikaru Touhou. But the next moment, something astonishing happened: the two of them actually reached out and held hands, and made a starting gesture.

This indicates that the two are planning to dance next.

"How...how could this be?" Kashima, the president of the Furuhashi Fumino fan club, gaped in disbelief. She had just been frantically searching for Furuhashi Fumino, and the bonfire party was about to end. If she didn't come soon, they would be doomed.

When she finally found Fumino Furuhashi, she discovered that Fumino had walked straight towards Higashikata, and then the two of them inexplicably started holding hands??

What's the situation?

"How is this possible? Even the 'Sleeping Beauty of the Literary Forest' has been taken by that guy..."

"That's the third one! This is the third person already! All the popular pretty girls have danced with him!!!"

"Damn it, explode, you social butterfly! This world is better off being shattered!"

Dongfang Bai, who danced with three of the most popular and beautiful girls in high school, is undoubtedly the most envied person by boys. In other people's eyes, he is a complete winner in life.

The boys watching stared intently at Dongfang Bai with envious and jealous looks. Although their gazes were really piercing, Dongfang Bai selectively ignored them.

The students around him could hardly describe the ultimate "normie" in front of them, with black hair, black eyes, and a smiling face. Although he was very handsome, ranked first in the entire grade, had excellent cooking skills, incredible physical abilities, and could play music... it seemed that he didn't have any other merits.

Yes, they're mostly advantages.

"Ugh, so embarrassing..." Fumino Furuhashi's pretty face turned bright red. She didn't dare to look around, because she knew that if she looked to the side, she would see a bunch of people staring at her in surprise.

She felt she couldn't give up this opportunity, especially since two other people had already danced with Dongfang Bai, and she wasn't the most conspicuous one. So she wasn't shy and gradually became immersed in the dance.

The members of Fumino Furuhashi's fan club all stared intently at the two figures, a man and a woman, by the campfire. The two were smiling in the firelight, looking genuinely happy.

Dongfang Bai held the other's hand. Fumino Furuhashi's long, jewel-like blue hair shone faintly in the firelight. Their movements were neither hurried nor slow, and their graceful actions were truly admirable.

Although Fumino Furuhashi can dance, this is the first time she has danced a duet so well. Every movement of Dongfang Bai is guiding her movements. Even someone who can't dance at all would probably dance quite well under his guidance.

Their movements continued one after another, and as time ticked by, they finally bowed slightly to each other at the very last moment when the music stopped, marking the end of the dance.

"Phew..." Dongfang Bai exhaled a breath of stale air. He had finally finished dancing. Even though his physical fitness was quite good, he was still a little tired after dancing three dances in a row. He had been dancing for half an hour at the bonfire party.

In other words, within this half of the four-year period, he danced with three different people almost non-stop, and he also had to guide their movements, which required a lot of energy.

Fortunately, the outcome was good. He had finished dancing with the three of them, but he still hadn't seen Kato Megumi, which made him feel very sorry. He didn't see Megumi even after the bonfire party ended.

"Shiro, actually it was Megumi who asked me to come over..." Fumino Furuhashi played with her long blue hair a little shyly, twirling it around her fingers, revealing her nervousness.

"It's Hui."

Dongfang Bai nodded to indicate that he understood. Why did she call Fumino Kohashi over but not come herself? Or did she not want to dance with him...?

Wow, he really liked Hui, and he felt extremely regretful that he didn't get to dance this time. Why couldn't the bonfire party have lasted longer?

The end of this bonfire party also marked the end of the school trip. Over the three days, Dongfang Bai's relationship with the girls had developed further. Unfortunately, Kato Megumi was not present at the final bonfire party.

……

"No matter how I think about it, I still feel like I've lost out...!" Dongfang Bai suddenly sat up. It was already 10 p.m., and he felt so regretful that he hadn't danced with Hui. The more he thought about it, the more he felt like he had lost out.

Unable to sleep, he couldn't help but glance at the other two girls to see how they were sleeping. It must be getting late by now; they must be sleeping soundly.

"Ok?"

Dongfang Bai was taken aback. When he looked in the direction where the other two girls were sleeping, he did not see Kato Megumi. There was only Furuhashi Fumino sleeping soundly. Kato Megumi was not sleeping next to her.

"You went to the bathroom...?"

After hesitating for a while, Dongfang Bai also felt that he couldn't sleep, so he decided to go out for a walk. The main gate of the hotel was completely closed, and if he wanted to sneak outside, he could only climb over the small window at the back.

You may encounter patrolling teachers along the way, so you need to be vigilant.

Dongfang Bai slowly walked out of the room, skillfully walked down the stairs, and then jumped off the windowsill with one hand on the windowsill. The distance from the ground was only two meters, which was not particularly high.

The forest was obviously quite quiet at night, which reminded Dongfang Bai of the test of courage he had participated in the previous night. However, unlike before, the sky was not completely dark and obscured; instead, it was a deep, boundless blue that stretched into the distance.

The bright, silvery moonlight shone through the gaps in the leaves and spilled onto the ground. The Milky Way, as bright as a jewel, hung in the sky. Dongfang Bai couldn't resist taking out his phone and snapping a picture of the night sky.

If Fumino Furuhashi, who loves the starry sky, were to see this, she might be so happy that she would dance with joy.

"Take a picture and send it to Umaru and the others..." Dongfang Bai said, putting the photo into a text message and sending it to Umaru and Sagiri. It was fortunate that it was a hotel in the woods; it's rare to see such a starry sky in the city.

Dongfang Bai walked around the forest twice with a smile on his face. The feeling of taking a walk in the middle of the night was surprisingly good. Suddenly, he froze because there was a girl in front of him with her back to him, humming a tune softly and looking up at the night sky.

There are still people outside at this hour?

Dongfang Bai was taken aback. He suddenly realized that the girl in front of him looked increasingly familiar. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was Kato Megumi! At that moment, Kato Megumi also saw Dongfang Bai. She was also surprised, and the two stared at each other.

The girl's expression changed slightly under the moonlight. Her fair cheeks were illuminated by the silvery moonlight, and she asked softly, "Bai Jun?"

"Megumi, what are you doing here? Are you also out for a walk because you can't sleep, just like me?" Dongfang Bai didn't expect to run into Kato Megumi in a place like this. No wonder he didn't see her next to Furuhashi Fumino earlier.

"Hmm, I can't sleep, so I came out to look at the stars." Kato Megumi chuckled and slowly walked to Dongfang Bai's side. She raised her head and stared at the bright sky, revealing a gentle smile.

"By the way, Hui, how did you get out of the hotel?" Dongfang Bai was a little surprised. He went downstairs and climbed out through the first-floor window. If Hui did the same, it would be impossible for her to climb out through the window.

Could a girl like Hui climb over a two-meter-high window and jump down?

"Yeah, I saw the back door wasn't closed, so I slipped out." Kato Megumi said, pointing to the hotel. Dongfang Bai suddenly realized that he hadn't checked the back door. So the back door wasn't closed.

"I even climbed out the window..." Dongfang Bai's lips twitched. Kato Megumi saw his dark expression, which seemed to amuse the girl. She covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Hey Bai-kun, how's the bonfire party?" Kato Megumi approached Dongfang Bai with a smile on her face, her hands behind her back. He looked up at the starry sky and slowly spoke.

"Dancing with three beautiful girls, I almost got killed by the boys' stares."

"Pfft." Kato Megumi couldn't help but laugh out loud. She actually wanted to see Dongfang Bai's somewhat embarrassed look, finding it really amusing. Seeing her laugh like that, Dongfang Bai couldn't hold back either and asked.

"Speaking of which, where's Megumi? I didn't see you at all at the bonfire party. Fumino even said you invited her over." Dongfang Bai didn't say the last thing: 'Without Megumi Kato, he couldn't find her to dance with.'

It's such a shame that we didn't dance together at the bonfire party during this most important school trip for second-year high school students.

"Um~ I had something to do and left right away~"

Kato Megumi stretched out a finger and pressed it against her left cheek. No matter how you looked at it, her reason seemed like nonsense. It was definitely not because of this reason that she didn't come to the campfire for a while.

"..."

Dongfang Bai stared at Kato Megumi thoughtfully. Although it was just his guess, he wondered if Kato Megumi had deliberately not appeared because she wanted the other three girls to dance with her.

Probably not...

"Well, Mr. Bai, may I ask you for a favor?" Kato Megumi seemed to have noticed what Dongfang Bai was thinking as he frowned slightly, and suddenly spoke up, interrupting his train of thought.

"what's up?"

"Could you dance with me?"

As soon as Kato Megumi finished speaking, Dongfang Bai froze on the spot. The bonfire party was already over. Did they mean they were going to dance here? Although the environment here was quite nice, but...

"Is that not allowed?"

With a slight smile, the girl tilted her head slightly, and Dongfang Bai suddenly felt that her action was incredibly cute, and he suddenly realized that he had no way to refuse her.

"Of course!"

Upon hearing Dongfang Bai's agreement, Kato Megumi's smile became even more beautiful. She nodded and extended her hand to Dongfang Bai, who, without hesitation, also reached out and grasped the girl's hand.

The two began to dance slowly in the woods under the moonlight. There were no dance steps, they just moved as they pleased. Although there was no communication, the two were able to dance in perfect harmony.

Kato Megumi's hands were slender and boneless. Dongfang Bai gently held her hand and danced with a smile under the bright moonlight. The girl was like a dancing elf in the forest, becoming more and more charming.

They didn't know how long they jumped, but they gradually stopped. Kato Megumi let out a breath and then let go of each other's hands.

"Phew, thank you, Bai-jun, for granting my somewhat willful request."

"No way... I'm really lucky to be able to dance with Hui." Dongfang Bai was telling the truth. He felt that his trip out for a walk was a huge win. If he hadn't come out, he would have missed it and would have regretted it for the rest of his life.

"By the way, Bai-kun, do you know the afterword to the Legend of the Bond?" Kato Megumi suddenly asked in a mysterious tone, which surprised Dongfang Bai.
