As Aoki Hina entered the house and took off her shoes, she rubbed her slightly sore shoulders and legs.
Because of news that the tram would be suspended, the stage play rehearsals for "Revue Starlight" ended early.
As soon as she entered the living room, she saw through the transparent sliding door of the kitchen that Toru Tazaki was feeding Rin Tachibana stew with a stainless steel spoon.
456. Just assume that Rin-nee never had these things. (Seeking monthly votes)
Aoki Hina's expression stiffened upon seeing this.
Fortunately, she and Tachibana Rin are now on the same side, and although she felt awkward, she quickly composed herself.
Hina Aoki entered the kitchen with a smile.
"It smells so good! I've come back just in time."
After saying that, Aoki Hina glanced at Tachibana Rin without making a sound.
Rin Tachibana shrank back, not daring to reply, and subconsciously licked the soup that clung to her lips.
Tazaki Toru remained calm, a faint smile playing on his lips.
"Everyone, wash your hands and get ready to eat."
The two girls washed their hands one after the other. Tachibana Rin was initially a little guilty, but then she realized something was wrong.
I rescued him from the clutches of the Sheep Palace Princess today, so it's only right that I, Rin-nee, get a little reward for doing so.
I won over men through strategy, so when did I ever have to depend on Aoki Hina's whims?
What kind of logic is this? Just because I'm your best friend, does that mean I deserve to be held at gunpoint by you?
Aren't we on equal footing?
Thinking of this, Tachibana Rin gradually felt more confident, and she grinned at Aoki Hina with a very smug smile.
Hina Aoki was speechless.
Shortly afterward, Toru Tazaki served dinner, and the three of them sat down.
"I was thinking of going out to eat with Rin-chan, but I thought you were going out with Yoko and the others and wouldn't be home until late."
Aoki Hina's words appear to be a statement, but they are actually a question.
"Yes, I received news that Ms. Tachibana had caught a cold halfway through, so I ended the trip early and brought back some cold medicine."
Rin Tachibana had instructed that he could only call her by her name when they were alone together.
"Huh? Rin-chan, do you have a cold?"
As expected of Tachibana Rin's best friend, Aoki Hina's face was full of suspicion, aside from a fleeting look of worry.
She didn't believe it at all.
Rin Tachibana chuckled and said, "I'm much better now, let's eat."
Tazaki Toru gave a helpless smile, not exposing Aoki Hina's clumsy lie in front of her.
Hina Aoki could easily see through it; they understood each other without saying a word.
After the meal.
Tazaki Toru cleared the table, while the two girls went upstairs together with a "thump thump thump".
Upon entering Tachibana Rin's bedroom, Aoki Hina slammed the door shut and locked it with a click.
Rin Tachibana sat on the bed, hugged her pillow, and stared at Hina Aoki with great vigilance.
"What? Are you here to interrogate me?"
“I didn’t say that,” Hina Aoki said, pursing her lips.
Sitting down by the bed, Aoki Hina stared silently at Tachibana Rin.
Rin Tachibana felt a chill run down her spine under her gaze, but forced herself to remain calm and said:
"If it weren't for my quick thinking, Sister Lin, he would be playing some kind of game with Xiao Yang and the others right now."
Sure enough, the cold was just a lie.
Tazaki-kun is really something, managing to fool him back with such an obvious lie.
Hina Aoki sighed inwardly.
Seeing that Aoki Hina remained silent, Tachibana Rin pressed her advantage: "You like him, so you can use tricks. I like him, so of course I can use tricks too."
Rin Tachibana looked like she was completely in the right.
Upon hearing this, Hina Aoki was completely speechless.
That being said, it's extremely rare for Tachibana Rin to be so frank about liking him like she is today.
It's clear that something must have happened that she didn't know about during the time I was away.
The thought of Tazaki Toru giving Tachibana Rin a doting smile and making intimate gestures, even if he had no ulterior motives, still made Aoki Hina feel envious and disappointed.
Even so, she remained silent.
That's what they agreed upon beforehand.
If either party manages to win over that stubborn man, they will share him.
This would increase the chances of winning.
However, even though they say they want to live a life with three people.
But when Aoki Hina saw Tazaki Toru and Tachibana Rin being intimate in the kitchen, she felt... a little uneasy.
If this is the unintended consequence of agreeing to share Tachibana Rin's relationship, then it's a rather bitter pill to swallow.
No, that statement is somewhat incorrect.
Because this suggestion was first proposed by Hina Aoki, who expressed Rin Tachibana's feelings, but she herself did not fully understand the meaning behind it.
Seemingly sensing the somewhat dejected atmosphere emanating from Hina Aoki, Rin Tachibana hesitated for a moment before asking in a low voice:
"Hina, are you... thinking of backing out?"
"Eh?"
"Because...you seem to find it hard to accept."
Even Tachibana Rin knew that what they wanted to do was truly appalling, and even made decisions for Tazaki Toru without their consent.
But who could blame them for being such a wicked man, almost turning these two sisters into enemies?
After finally reaching a consensus, we can be like before, without having to tear each other apart over men and losing face.
"I'm sorry, I oversimplified things. I thought that as long as the three of us lived together like this, I would be content, but I..."
"She's still a selfish girl after all. Seeing how Tazaki-kun treated you, I felt really bad."
It must be said that Aoki Hina's thoughts are only natural.
It's difficult to share things you truly love with others without any struggle, let alone with people you love.
Tachibana Rin understood this principle perfectly well.
Compared to Aoki Hina, Tachibana Rin simply appears more carefree.
Hearing Aoki Hina say this, she also felt a pang of sadness.
“I value you all equally, but in your heart, you value him more than me.”
"If you really can't accept it, I won't argue with you."
"You can marry him and live happily ever after, then just throw me away like a roadside weed."
"Just assume that Rin-nee has never had these things."
With red eyes, Tachibana Rin threw the pillow in her arms aside, curled up her legs, and buried her face in her knees.
Hina Aoki looked at Rin Tachibana silently, slowly reached out and gently touched Rin's shoulder.
The girl's shoulders jerked violently, shaking off Hina Aoki's hand, and she remained silent with her head down.
Hina Aoki sighed, "What kind of talk is that? You're even trying to play hard to get with me."
"Don't worry, I won't go back on my word since I've promised you."
Rin Tachibana twitched her ears, but kept her head down.
"Alright, stop pretending. I apologize and I won't argue with you anymore. You can't do this either. Let's go back to how we were before, okay?"
Rin Tachibana slowly raised her head, her large eyes fixed on Hina Aoki in front of her.
"Really?"
"real."
Rin Tachibana secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that Hina Aoki would agree, which would have made things very difficult to handle.
As for Hina Aoki, she kept comforting herself, telling herself that she could only gradually get used to this twisted love triangle.
457. As long as you like Yang Gongfei Na, we are brothers even if we are not from the same father.
The following afternoon.
Inside the Bushido recording studio.
The lead singer's high notes were truly breathtaking, and her consistent and stable performance left Tazaki Toru with no faults.
Tazaki Toru couldn't help but applaud; his judgment was indeed correct.
Appointing Riko Sasaki as the lead vocalist for Mujica was a stroke of genius.
"Ms. Sasaki, you performed exceptionally well today; I was completely captivated."
The blonde girl standing in front of the microphone stand couldn't help but let out a joyful laugh.
Immediately, Toru Tazaki looked at the other guitarist in the band.
"Miss Watarai, there were a few places just now..."
Tazaki Toru took out a pencil and marked the areas that needed improvement on the sheet music in front of Watari-san.
