She held her breath, her hands clenching unconsciously, and after a moment said, "Of...of course."

“Red Bean, you are my best friend, of course I’m on your side.”

Mitarashi Anko immediately broke into a smile.

But then Uzuki Yugao changed the subject, saying, "But Anko, don't you think it's a bit inappropriate to confess now?"

Mitarashi Anko: "When?"

"I've already waited so long, do I have to wait any longer?"

"No, I can't hold back anymore."

I have to confess my feelings!

"Oh dear, what's there to be unable to resist?" Uzuki Yugao earnestly advised, "Azuki, you must remember that you are a girl, you must be reserved."

"We can't be like we used to be, all energetic and tomboyish."

"Some things are not that hard if you just bear with them."

Mitarashi Anko frowned, then said, "But... how long must I endure this?"

"You can't expect me to just stand by and watch Nebula be with someone else and keep putting up with it, can you?"

"Xi Yan, I really can't do it."

Uzuki Yugao fell silent.

She stretched out her fingers, unconsciously biting her fingernails, her mind racing as she thought of what to say.

Hmm... how can I convince Hongdou to give up confessing her feelings, and also convince myself so that I don't feel so guilty?

After thinking for a moment, her eyes lit up, and she looked up and said, "Red Bean, have you thought about the consequences of confessing your feelings?"

Mitarashi Anko: "What are the consequences?"

Uzuki Yugao gave him a look of disappointment: "Fool, you can't do these things with just courage."

"Have you ever thought about what would happen if you confessed your feelings and Nebula... the Jonin, didn't accept? Wouldn't you feel embarrassed?"

Mitarashi Anko's eyes flickered: "It sounds a bit awkward."

Uzuki Yugao: "The embarrassment isn't the most important thing!"

"Most importantly, if you confess your feelings and are rejected, you may not even be able to remain friends."

Mitarashi Anko instinctively retorted, "What if it succeeds?"

"You said it yourself, it's just a possibility." Uzuki Yugao: "What if it's not just a possibility?"

"Red Bean, you need to think this through."

"Your current identity is very special."

Mitarashi Anko was a little confused: "What do you mean?"

Uzuki Yugao: "You're his friend, he admitted it himself, right?"

Mitarashi Anko nodded.

Uzuki Yugao: "That's why I said your identity is very special."

"There are so many girlfriends that it would be hard to count them all. But as far as I know, you're the only female friend I have!"

Are you sure you want to give up this unique and certain identity to pursue that uncertain one in a fraction?

Mitarashi Anko remained silent.

After hearing what Uzuki Yugao said, she really hesitated.

Uzuki Yugao is right. The girls who appear around Shingetsu Seiun come from all walks of life, but pure friendship... I've never really heard of such a thing before.

In comparison, I seem to be quite special, huh?

Uzuki Yugao: "Have you thought this through?"

Mitarashi Anko's face was conflicted: "Yugao, don't rush me."

"My mind is a bit of a mess, let me sort it out."

In the bathroom, Uzuki Yugao, who had been listening to Uzuki Yugao advising her best friend the whole time, keenly sensed something was off from the other woman's tone.

My sister's words sounded strange.

As the older sister, she quickly realized what was going on and frowned as she looked at Shenyue Xingyun.

He lowered his voice and whispered, "You're still in contact?"

Shenyue Xingyun nodded.

Maoyue Sunset: "Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

Shenyue Xingyun: "You're the one who told me to persuade her to leave me, I didn't promise you anything else."

Uozuki Yukihi's expression changed slightly: "Keep your voice down, or they'll hear you again."

Shenyue Xingyun shrugged: "It was you who insisted on listening to them talk. I could have cast a soundproof barrier."

Uzuki Sunset: "I was just curious."

Shenyue Xingyun: "So, since you're the one who's curious, you should try to keep your voice down."

Just as Uzuki Sunset was about to speak, she suddenly took a deep breath.

...

In the living room.

Seeing Mitarashi Anko's constantly changing expression, Uzuki Yugao also felt a little sorry for her.

Did I go a little too far?

She was just a little scared. What if Mitarashi Anko got too close to Kamitsuki Seiun and discovered her relationship with him? Besides, Mitarashi Anko didn't have a boyfriend or any suitors, so she didn't seem to have any advantage over Kamitsuki Seiun.

Recalling what Shinzuki Seiun had said, she truly believed that the probability of Mitarashi Anko successfully confessing her feelings was extremely low.

Maybe we should just let her confess. If she succeeds, great; if she fails, she can be sad for a while.

Just as she was about to speak, Mitarashi Anko spoke first.

"Xi Yan, if I don't confess now, when will I ever get the chance?"

"If you were me, what would you do?"

Uzuki Yugao swallowed back what she was about to say.

Faced with Mitarashi Anko's surprise, she thought about it seriously for a moment and said, "Anko."

Do you want to possess it exclusively, or do you want to own it, or even just try it out?

After thinking for two seconds, Mitarashi Anko gave her answer: "Secure third place, strive for second, and ideally, take it all."

Maoyue Xiyan: "..."

She kept her thoughts to herself, saying, "You're dreaming."

After organizing her thoughts, she decided to reveal something truly useful, out of consideration for her best friend.

"red beans."

"If I were you, I would find a boyfriend first, or gather a few suitors."

"Perhaps things will take a turn for the better."

Mitarashi Anko: "???"

Eavesdropping in the restroom, Uzuki Yuhi, whose legs were trembling from standing, thought: "???"

"You have this quirk?" Uzuki Yuhi asked in a low voice.

Shenyue Xingyun hurriedly defended herself: "No! I didn't! She's lying!"

"She's slandering me!"

"Take you for example, you didn't have a boyfriend back then!"

Thinking about it, the setting sun in the month of Maoyue makes sense.

But then she realized something was wrong.

"I didn't have a boyfriend back then, but the whole camp knew that Jiraiya liked me."

Shenyue Xingyun: "..."

Damn it, things are getting complicated, aren't they?

What's wrong with these two sisters? Why are they slandering someone out of nowhere?

Feeling angry, he simply stopped explaining and focused on doing his own thing.

The two in the living room showed no signs of ending their conversation. Uzuki Yuhi's legs, which had been trembling, grew increasingly weak, and she swayed precariously as if she were about to collapse.

She reached out and held onto the door frame, trying to relieve her fatigue while speaking with difficulty.

"Sister...sister...older sister..."

Shenyue Xingyun: "What sister? Aren't you the sister?"

Uzuki Yuhi wanted to glare at him, but the immense exhaustion made her almost unable to stand, so she just rolled her eyes.

"I said... a barrier!"

"Oh, a barrier." Shenyue Xingyun looked enlightened.

"Sorry, someone with such quirks as me doesn't know how to create barriers."

Maoyue Xiyang: "…………!!!!!"

Chapter 299 A Loving Family

Ten minutes later, Mitarashi Anko left with a conflicted expression. As for whether she had listened to Uzuki Yugao's advice, the latter was unsure.

After watching the other person leave, Uzuki Yugao rushed to the toilet.

I was so focused just now, and I drank a lot of water, so I was really anxious.
