Ye Ziye turned his head and looked at Shinomiya Kaguya's profile, asking a question. He wasn't like Fujiwara Chika, who couldn't even see something so simple.

Furthermore, he didn't believe that Kaguya Shinomiya stayed here simply to be with him.

How did you figure that out?

Kaguya Shinomiya was puzzled. She thought her acting was very good, while Ye Ziye was speechless. He knew that the people in the student council were all acting strangely.

And perhaps because Kaguya Shinomiya was always spending time with Chika Fujiwara, this once proud and aloof girl had become somewhat inexplicable.

Ye Ziye's wish is to remain untainted in the inexplicably chaotic student council and continue to retain her wisdom.

Seeing that Ye Ziye did not answer, Shinomiya Kaguya did not ask any further questions. Now that she had been exposed, she did not want to continue to hide it.

Are you doing a charity event?

"Well, I'm not the organizer. I'm just a helper, in charge of making black tea. The one who initiated it is my boss, that woman who's probably around twenty-five years old."

Ye Ziye didn't want to go through the same problem again, so she simply repeated what she had said to Yukino Yukinoshita before.

"I see..."

Kaguya Shinomiya nodded, not particularly surprised. She understood Ye Ziye's situation; while not exactly impoverished, it certainly wasn't at a level where she could afford to organize such a charity event.

President Kaguya Shinomiya was very satisfied with Ye Ziye's honesty.

Are you very tired?

"It's not that I'm very tired, it's just that I'm not used to this kind of occasion. Too many people are giving me thankful looks, which makes me very uncomfortable, because the person they really want to thank is my boss, not me."

Ye Ziye spoke frankly, saying he didn't like it this way.

Because his black tea tasted exceptional, most people would ask who made it, and after learning that it was him, they would look at him with gratitude, as if all the credit belonged to him.

Although Kudo Nami was still all smiles, Ye Ziye didn't want that to happen.

If it weren't for Nami Kudo organizing such an event, he probably wouldn't have even thought of participating, because he didn't have the time to promote his charitable spirit.

He doesn't consider himself a very compassionate person, because his motto is to mind his own business.

Kudo Nami had gone to great lengths to organize this event, and Yoko didn't want to upset the truly good people.

In addition, he didn't like this kind of crowded environment, and since Yukino Yukinoshita was also there, finding an excuse to slip away was probably the best option.

"I see. That woman is quite a nice person."

Kaguya Shinomiya said this while looking at Nami Kudo, who wasn't particularly outstanding: "The Shinomiya Zaibatsu donates an unimaginable amount of money to various places every year."

However, the purpose of doing so is merely to enhance one's reputation in society; it is a business tactic, and there may be a little bit of goodwill involved, or perhaps none at all.

It's clear that Kudo Nami wasn't trying to improve her social reputation, but rather to promote good deeds or fulfill a childhood dream of becoming a hero.

"That's true, that woman can be quite nice at times."

Watching the busy Kudo Nami, Ye Ziye couldn't help but sigh. This seemingly useless store manager was actually quite useful at times, and he felt that organizing such an event was quite meaningful.

As for why he said that Kudo Nami was sometimes quite nice, it was because he would occasionally notice that this woman would look at him with resentful eyes.

"Sometimes it's pretty good..."

Kaguya Shinomiya muttered to herself, but didn't ask any further questions. In her opinion, since Ye Ziye worked at a pet cafe, there must be many things she didn't know about that little shop.

After coughing softly twice, Kaguya Shinomiya asked the question she most wanted to know.

Are you close to Yukino Yukinoshita? Why would she work for you there?

Ye Ziye glanced at Shinomiya Kaguya. He didn't know that his student council president was such a gossipy person, but considering the special relationship between the two girls, he felt relieved.

"I wouldn't say we're very close, but I think we can be considered friends. She helped me, and I helped her. I think we'll help each other in the future."

Ye Ziye felt that his answer was quite fair. He didn't know how Yukino Yukinoshita viewed him, but he assumed that the two were probably friends.

At least now there are very few tense moments. At most, Yukino Yukinoshita might say something sarcastic, and then Yoru would retort. Most of the time, the two get along amicably.

Yukino Yukinoshita reads a lot of books, and when Ye Ziye was writing about Ye Zi's daily love life, he would occasionally ask for her opinion and received some good help.

"Friends..."

Kaguya Shinomiya murmured softly, looking at the ethereal boy beside her, somewhat surprised.

Despite having known Yukino Yukinoshita for so long, she had never heard of this girl having any friends.

Even though she's an ice queen, she had a friend named Fujiwara Chika in junior high school. After entering high school, her personality improved a lot, and she was able to talk to her classmates.

However, Yukino Yukinoshita remained true to herself and followed her own beliefs, which surprised Kaguya Shinomiya by making friends with her.

Chapter 104

Kaguya Shinomiya didn't feel any jealousy towards Yukino Yukinoshita; she was simply surprised.

However, she soon calmed down. She never thought she would have a friend like Fujiwara Chika. Now the two of them can go shopping together.

Life can be so unpredictable and wondrous at times.

Kaguya Shinomiya opened her mouth, as if to say something, but before she could utter a word, she was interrupted by a cute voice that drew nearer.

"Kaguya-san!"

Fujiwara Chika, who had just left, returned the way she came for some reason, with a hint of excitement on her face.

"Fujiwara-san, why did you come back?"

For some reason, Kaguya Shinomiya had a bad feeling.

"No time to explain, come with me, I've found a great place with a romantic atmosphere!"

"Varied..."

Before Kaguya Shinomiya could finish speaking, she was pulled up by Chika Fujiwara.

"Ye Zi, we'll be going now. See you at school!"

"Goodbye."

Ye Ziye waved his hand, still not expecting this turn of events. As expected, he could never truly understand Fujiwara Chika.

"Wait"

Kaguya Shinomiya tried to resist, but was dragged away by Chika Fujiwara, while Yoru Yo continued to wave her hands.

He guessed that the romantic spot that Fujiwara Chika found was a place where many couples gathered, otherwise it would be impossible for this girl's romantic mind to be so excited.

After silently mourning for Kaguya Shinomiya for a minute, Ye Ziye stood up.

They've had enough rest now, and some girls are starting to get restless again after seeing Kaguya Shinomiya leave. Staying here isn't a wise choice.

Brushing the dust off his bottom, Ye Ziye walked towards the place where the charity event was being held.

It was already 2 p.m., and only half a bucket of the two large buckets of black tea remained. However, there were far fewer people coming, so they figured they could manage to get through this period.

"You're back."

As Ye Ziye approached, Yukino Yukinoshita wiped the fine sweat from her forehead and spoke softly. The sweat wasn't from fatigue, but from nervousness.

Many people had just walked around in front of her, and they were all kind-looking elderly people. It was the first time she had ever seen such a scene.

However, she didn't feel any regret. She was already quite happy to be here, and it wasn't too tiring. Most people wouldn't choose to come to her place, but would go to the other two girls instead.

"how do you feel?"

Ye Ziye rubbed Garfield's big face and asked casually, as a way of showing his concern, since he was the one who had asked Yukino Yukinoshita to stay here.

"is acceptable."

Seeing that there was no one around, Yukino Yukinoshita also sat down with Garfield in her arms, meaning that even though her clothes were covered with cat hair, she still couldn't bear to let go.

"That's good..."

Ye Ziye observed her surroundings. There weren't many people left. This was about all the people gathered in this area; any more would have come from other places.

However, their event wasn't heavily publicized, so it's unlikely.

"Have a drink."

Ye Ziye took a paper cup, filled it with black tea, and thought about adding ice cubes, but stopped herself just before she was about to.

"You should be able to eat something cold today, right? If there's anything inconvenient, just let me know, and I won't add ice."

Yukino Yukinoshita was taken aback at first and didn't react immediately, but she soon understood what Ye Ziye meant, and a blush spread across her fair face.

This was the first time in her life that someone had asked her such a question, and she never expected it to be a man.

She wanted to complain, but found that she had nothing to say, and she figured that if she did, she would just get a rebuttal.

"No, but it's not necessary. Let's keep these things for the workers."

Yukino Yukinoshita's voice was muffled. To be honest, she was a little shy. She thought this was a normal reaction; any girl would feel shy when she heard this kind of topic.

"I see..."

Ye Ziye added two ice cubes to the glass, but instead of saving the water for the workers as Yukino Yukinoshita had suggested, she handed it to her.

"Have a cup, it's no big deal. No one will die of thirst because they don't have a cup of tea, especially since you're one of the workers, and there aren't many people like that now, are there?"

Yukino Yukinoshita was taken aback. Actually, she still wanted to follow her own ideas because before today, she had no idea that there were so many sanitation workers in Tokyo.

As a heiress from a wealthy family, she had always lived in a carefully constructed environment, believing that Tokyo was a clean and tidy place.

However, Ye Ziye's words made a lot of sense, and she found herself unable to refute them. Just as she was hesitating, a cup of black tea was shoved into her hand.

Ye Ziye poured herself a cup of black tea, and also poured one for Kudo Nami and another for Nakamura Nanami. Judging from the current situation, the event would probably be over soon.

"Well... I'll start eating now."

Yukino Yukinoshita stopped being coy and took a small sip of her black tea. A delicious flavor she had never tasted before spread across her taste buds.

Looking at the calm and composed boy beside her, Yukino Yukinoshita was somewhat shocked. This level of deliciousness was really not something a sixteen-year-old boy could make.

You know, she's been brewing black tea since she was a child, but the taste of her brews is very different from this one.

She is a hot tea lover, but the iced tea in her hand is the best black tea she has ever tasted in her life.

Unlike Yukino Yukinoshita, who sipped her tea slowly, Ye Ziye drank the entire cup of black tea in one gulp, gazing at the setting sun with a slightly absent-minded expression.

He didn't intend to tell Yukino Yukinoshita about his encounter with Kaguya Shinomiya, and he believed that his student council president wouldn't want him to reveal it either.

He's not that big-mouthed; it's incredibly easy for him to completely forget about a small matter.
