Artoria blurted out that this was what Ye Ziye had taught her: Garfield was a pet that two people raised together, not the property of just one person.
"The two of you?"
"Yes, we live together now."
Artoria didn't shy away from the matter at all. She and Ye Ziye were very happy. They could eat delicious meals every day and play with a cute cat like Garfield. She didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
"Living together?"
Ye Ziye felt a little depressed. Now that the three girls were walking together, he was standing alone in a row, which made him feel isolated, even though he was a member of the student council.
But it doesn't matter. Being able to let Fujiwara Chika be a girl who can chat normally is more reassuring than anything else. At least Ye Ziye is much more relaxed now.
"Living together? I guess that's what it means..."
Artoria didn't quite understand, but she nodded nonetheless, finding Fujiwara Chika's behavior a bit strange. Why was she blushing when they were just living together?
"So what happened on the forum was true..."
Fujiwara Chika, looking utterly exasperated, walked over to Ye Ziye, gently pinched him, and then rejoined the group of girls.
Ye Ziye felt bewildered by the attack. He hadn't said or done anything, but in the end, he was the one who took the blame. Was this the role of a boy?
Fortunately, the blow from Fujiwara Chika didn't hurt, and I didn't feel much of a sensation.
Are you and Ye Zi boyfriend and girlfriend?
"no."
"Then why do you live together?"
"Because we are living together."
Fujiwara Chika and Artoria exchanged questions and answers, both of them somewhat confused, as was Shinomiya Kaguya, but the quick-witted Kaguya promptly stepped in to explain.
"So you're sharing an apartment with Ye Zi, right?"
That's it!
Artoria's adorable face was full of seriousness, which made Kaguya Shinomiya want to rub it, so she quickly looked away.
"Oh, it's a shared apartment! I was so scared!"
Fujiwara Chika breathed a sigh of relief. The moment she thought of living together, countless embarrassing images flashed through her mind, but now they were all shattered.
Looking at Fujiwara Chika, Artoria felt that this girl was a bit strange, always doing things that she didn't understand and saying things that she didn't comprehend.
She didn't care, though. As a swordswoman, she had ample perception. In her mind, both Fujiwara Chika and Shinomiya Kaguya radiated kindness and were not annoying.
"Your cat is amazing! It actually managed to beat my dog!"
"It's alright. Yezi said that Garfield also beat another dog. For creatures in nature, size is the most crucial factor in determining victory or defeat, so it's not surprising that Garfield won."
Artoria calmly analyzed the situation. She was startled when Pace pounced on her, and while she hesitated about whether to make a move, Garfield had already won.
Can I touch it?
Fujiwara Chika's expectant expression made Ye Ziye, who was walking ahead, feel a little strange.
This girl wasn't like this just a moment ago, but she changed in the blink of an eye. Girls' fickleness is truly amazing.
At the same time, Ye Ziye silently mourned for the dog named Pace for a second. The owner must have been unwilling to let the enemy's head be touched by his master.
"Yes, Garfield is very docile. As long as you don't use too much force, he won't get angry no matter how much you pet him."
Artoria has always been a good girl who loves to share, and she's the same with the adorable Garfield. She doesn't resist letting other girls touch Garfield.
After saying that, he even demonstrated it himself, hugging Garfield in his arms and rubbing Garfield's cheeks.
Just as she had said, Garfield gave no response whatsoever, appearing completely helpless.
"Really! What an adorable cat! I've never seen one like it before!"
Cats are generally proud creatures, and perhaps in their eyes, humans are just poop scoopers. That's why Fujiwara Chika's family chose to keep a more obedient dog.
Garfield was the first cat she had ever seen that was so well-behaved.
Swallowing hard, Fujiwara Chika shakily reached out her hand and placed it on Garfield's big head, gently rubbing it.
It's fluffy and soft, different from the feel of paisley, but just as comfortable.
Garfield opened his eyes slightly when a stranger rubbed them, but closed them again after seeing that it was Fujiwara Chika.
Perhaps cats have a special ability to perceive human good and evil more clearly. Although Fujiwara Chika has a strange thought process, she is definitely a kind and good girl, without a doubt.
"Kaguya-san, you should touch it too, it feels so good!"
Fujiwara Chika's eyes sparkled. She had discovered a new world. This chubby cat was nothing like the one Ye Ziye had raised. Their personalities were different, yet somehow similar.
Yezi Ye is a kind of plainness, Garfield is a kind of gentleness, both of them are just not good at expressing themselves.
Originally, Fujiwara Chika thought that Yoko's cat would be a skinny, handsome cat, but she didn't expect it to be this cute type, which was really surprising.
"Huh? Me? Forget it..."
Kaguya Shinomiya waved her hand. She didn't dislike cats, but she did feel a little resistant to them because her maid had been scratched by a cat when she was a child, which was why she had this feeling.
Garfield looked very well-behaved and even cuter. As a girl, Kaguya Shinomiya really wanted to pet him, but the thought that he was Ye Ziye's pet made her feel a little strange.
If you touch Garfield, that's the same as touching Ye Ziye, and she would never do such a thing.
Ye Ziye silently led the way, not knowing where he was going, just walking aimlessly, completely unaware that in Shinomiya Kaguya's mind, he had already equated himself with a cat.
Chapter 223
"Kaguya-san, feel free to touch it, it's okay!"
Fujiwara Chika really wanted to share this comfortable feeling with her best friend and was enthusiastically recommending it. Garfield's touch felt amazing, and she thought every girl would love it.
"But..."
Kaguya Shinomiya still hesitated. Childhood traumas are always the most profound and unforgettable, even if they didn't happen to her personally.
"Go ahead and pet it, it's no big deal. Garfield is a very well-behaved cat. Didn't you say when we were playing games that you would pet a cat after confirming its goodwill?"
Ye Ziye, who had been walking ahead, spoke up. Although he didn't know why Shinomiya Kaguya was so resistant, he also wanted to share Garfield's unique feel.
He doesn't dislike Kaguya Shinomiya, and there's nothing wrong with sharing things like Garfield.
Upon hearing Ye Ziye speak, Shinomiya Kaguya lowered her head, seemingly considering the feasibility of this action.
However, Ye Ziye was never one to wait. He picked Garfield up from Artoria's arms and then placed him in Kaguya's arms, completing the handover.
The sudden heaviness startled Kaguya Shinomiya, followed by a soft, fluffy sensation.
Unlike when he was a child, the cat in his arms didn't move around. Instead, it lay quietly. Ye Ziye watched all this silently, not at all surprised by the outcome.
Garfield knew his character all too well; there was absolutely no problem with him being held by a beautiful girl like Kaguya Shinomiya.
Kaguya Shinomiya squinted, and after a long while, she gradually came to her senses. She quietly opened her eyes, looked at the cat in her arms, and a unique emotion of a young girl brewed in her heart.
No matter what kind of personality a girl has, she is absolutely powerless against an adorable creature like Garfield.
"It...is really quite well-behaved..."
She tentatively reached out her hand, a hint of expectation in Kaguya Shinomiya's wine-red eyes.
Although she was frightened by cats when she was a child, she still has the urge to pet cute cats when she sees them, but she has never actually done so.
Now that this thing she's never tried before is about to be completed, Kaguya Shinomiya can't help but feel a little excited.
Kaguya Shinomiya's fingers were long, slender, and fair, with distinct finger bones; they were very beautiful hands, but they were trembling slightly as she slowly placed them on Garfield's head.
Garfield's head is huge; Kaguya Shinomiya's hand is nowhere near as big as his, yet there's a strange sense of harmony about it, though I don't know why.
Seeing this, Ye Ziye also found it amusing. His own hands were very large, and this had never happened before. Now, seeing the comparison between Shinomiya Kaguya's hands and Garfield's head, he clearly realized just how big this cat's head was.
"I knew it! Garfield is a good boy!"
Fujiwara Chika jumped out from the side, her face full of smugness, as if Garfield were her cat.
Ye Ziye didn't say anything about this, because he had already come to the realization that his complaints would be ignored in this situation.
"She's really well-behaved..."
Kaguya Shinomiya was a little stunned. After all, she had never dared to pet a cat before, but now her first time was with a cat of Garfield's caliber. She was sure she would get addicted to petting it.
Inside the shopping mall, a bizarre scene unfolded: three people stood to one side, watching another person pet a cat—it was quite strange.
In the past, Kaguya Shinomiya would have definitely disregarded other people's gazes, but today, she completely ignored them, immersing herself in the pleasure of petting the cat.
After a while, Fujiwara Chika also came over and poked Garfield's head with her finger, making a dent with each poke, which looked quite amusing.
Half a minute later, Artoria joined in.
Ye Ziye stood to the side, feeling as if she no longer belonged with the three girls.
Is this the legendary isolation? He never expected to feel it here. He found it quite strange, but standing here all alone, he felt mostly bewildered.
"Um... Secretary Fujiwara, what exactly are we doing out here?"
Faced with this situation, Ye Ziye decisively chose to change the subject, and Fujiwara Chika was naturally the best person to take over.
Artoria was with him, while Kaguya Shinomiya was already captivated by Garfield's charm; neither of these girls was a good match.
"Oh! I almost forgot, we came here to have fun!"
At Ye Ziye's "friendly" reminder, Fujiwara Chika suddenly woke up and almost knocked off the huge bow in her hair.
After pausing for a moment, Fujiwara Chika turned to Shinomiya Kaguya and spoke.
"Kaguya-san, let's go to the movie theater first, the movie is about to start!"
"Movie?"
Hearing these familiar yet unfamiliar words, Ye Ziye was stunned. He rarely went to the cinema because he felt it was unnecessary to waste money, as he could watch movies for free on certain websites.
Since coming into this world, he has never been to a movie theater.
"That's right! When it comes to going out together, it has to be to see a movie!"
For some strange reason, Ye Ziye has been to this shopping mall many times. She is happy just by browsing around with Ms. Kato, and she has never gone to strange places like the movie theater when she is with Yukino Yukinoshita and Yui Yuigahama.
Practice leads to truth, so Ye Ziye (Li Li's) felt that Fujiwara Chika was wrong.
Moreover, he regretted it a little. It was just to watch a movie, but it made him get up so early. It was really not worth it. But it was too late to regret it now.
Seemingly sensing Ye Ziye's mood, Fujiwara Chika smugly hummed twice and continued speaking.
