Let's do it again, Yukino.

Xiaoxue shook her head, gently refusing Chunri's request.

"Stars? What's so interesting about those?"

In spring, following the gaze of Xiaoxue, I looked up at the starry sky, which was filled with countless stars.

It doesn't seem any different, what's better about it?

The stars seen from the apartment balcony were not much different.

"Kasuga-kun, do you like me?"

At that moment, Xiaoxue asked the boy so earnestly.

……

…………

Have you ever heard of this fairy tale?

Once upon a time, a woodcutter went up the mountain to chop wood and accidentally dropped his axe into a small lake.

The fairy in the lake

She took out a golden axe and a silver axe and asked the woodcutter which one he had lost. The honest woodcutter chose his own axe, ignoring the two axes. But as a reward for his honesty, the fairy gave him both the golden and silver axes.

This was originally a beautiful fairy tale.

It's like if one day,

Dango's teacher accidentally fell into the lake.

A fairy also appeared.

She showed the girl a teacher with refreshing eyes and a sunny, cheerful demeanor.

They asked her if she had lost such a great teacher.

Of course,

The silly girl firmly shook her head.

She should have liked that teacher with dead fish eyes and a rotten aura.

So, as a reward, the dumpling girl received the Great Teacher with his refreshing eyes and outgoing personality.

The teacher with the dead fish eyes was secretly kept by the fairy.

That's the kind of fairy tale it is.

……

…………

"You like it?"

Looking at the girl in front of him who had asked him such a question, Haruhi nodded without hesitation.

"Can you swear an oath? Swear an oath to these countless stars."

The girl, however, persisted.

"...I swear, I swear to the stars, Haruhi will always love Yuki, okay? It's late, we should go back. If we stay any longer, we'll really catch a cold."

However, Xiaoxue's response was somewhat conflicted.

"Actually, I... am not like that."

"What did you say, Xiaoxue?"

"It's nothing. Since Ah Qing is so worried about me, I'll take pity on you and go back with you."

"Sometimes you feel guilty after you get something. Maybe that's just me, Ah Qing, hee..."

"Stop saying things I don't understand. Do you think girls like you become sentimental during this season?"

"Never."

She resolutely refused the request, letting the boy lead her through the snow she had collected, but then she chuckled in a strange way.

"After all, Kasuga-kun is an idiot."

"Can you please not speak such blunt truths?"

"Because Yukino Yukinoshita wouldn't tell a lie."

Xiaoxue shamelessly praised herself.

However, he does have some outrageous remarks and a sharp tongue.

The starlight cast ripples on the sea behind the two figures.

……

"Do it here."

Halfway down the road, Yukinoshita seemed to remember something, stopped, her long hair obscuring her delicate face, and said softly.

Sometimes, liking to look at the stars is just a romantic lie.

"No."

With the sound of waves behind her, Chunri pretended not to hear Xiaoxue's suggestion and calmly and decisively refused.

Nonsense, it's such a cold night.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that agreeing to it was simply a matter of lust.

……

The two returned to the bicycle that had been set up.

Spring Day, who had originally planned to sit in the front, was stopped by Snow again.

"What's wrong now... Xiaoxue?"

Springtime felt that today's light snow was a little strange. Could it be that she was jealous again because of the Four Palaces?

And then, as before, did he experience a short period of amnesia again?

"You stay behind, this time, I'll be in front."

Xiaoxue lightly jumped onto the front seat, pointed to the back seats, and said to Chunri without any politeness.

"It's embarrassing for a man like me to sit on the back of a bicycle."

"Just sit in the back."

"...Okay, you win."

Unable to resist the girl's insistence, he pouted and had no choice but to straddle the back seat.

"It's so heavy... Ah Qing, you need to lose weight from now on."

As soon as the boy sat down, he felt a heavy, light snowfall all over the car, and he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

However, Yukino, who was used to riding the Snow Mountain, managed to slowly move forward with a little pedal.

along the way,

You can faintly hear the conversation between the boy and girl.

"My stomach feels cold because I've been on the beach for too long. Ah Qing, could you rub it for me?"

"...This way?"

"A little higher?"

"You're not wearing any?"

"We came out a little too quickly... Go up a bit more..."

"……All right."

It seems that, at one point, the boy did gain quite a bit of an advantage.

Chapter 64 Extra Chapter (IF Version): I'm so happy to have fallen for you.

I'm so happy to have fallen for you (Bonus Chapter/IF Chapter)

Class 2B is the class with the highest deviation value in the entire second year of Zongwu High School.

Students who are absolutely outstanding in other classes are just the median of a normal distribution in Class B.

Of course, the male-to-female ratio is also the most skewed, with nearly 90% being girls and less than 10% being boys, which constitutes the strange phenomenon of this class.

That is, the vast majority of girls and a very small number of lonely boys.

what did you say?

Oh, all that's left are cute boys.

Of course, there's one guy in this class who isn't included.

His name is Haruhi Kasugai.

He was the only oddball in the class.

His occupation is a high school student working part-time as a delinquent.

Although the label of "delinquent" was given to him by others, and his bad reputation had already spread in many junior high schools and even high schools in Chiba City as early as his junior high school days.

The most outrageous rumor was that he single-handedly took on all the male students from another school.

Although it was later proven to be a completely fabricated story.

In class, the boy usually sat by the window and seemed quiet and reserved, but he wasn't someone who appeared to be quiet.

His teacher, Shizuya Hiratsuka, had also advised him to try joining some clubs, and he did as his teacher suggested.

However, he was politely rejected by some company presidents.

This also ignited another unnecessary conflict.

However, Haruhi simply couldn't be bothered with them anymore.
