I, who advocate giving up, feel like a disqualified person

Really... no self-awareness at all.

We were walking down the street, and our conversation didn't give any hint of being on a date... Maybe it wasn't really a date, the atmosphere felt like a class reunion.

"Speaking of which, I just saw an interesting plot in the book."

"That's actually an old joke, but the author's ability to adapt it is still very strong."

The topic had inadvertently changed again. In this case, there was no need for me to speak.

The wind from the intersection was blowing with a bit of sand, and I couldn't help but slow down my pace as I turned my head to avoid it. At this moment, a familiar figure appeared in my field of vision.

Are those two...dating? I think it's a little awkward for two girls to use the word "dating," but that gesture is definitely more convincing than mine.

We're basically doing it the other way around...

I gradually stopped walking, and Senior Sister Xiaoqian also stopped walking. Looking at Senior Sister Xiaohui's confused expression, I knew that she must not have remembered who I was.

"Hmm? What's wrong?" Lingcan noticed something and looked in the direction I was facing. Naturally, he saw the two of them across the street. "What's wrong? Someone you know?"

"what..."

If he was an acquaintance... he wasn't a stranger. He was just an acquaintance to Xiao Qian.

"Trouble..."

Apparently, they were looking for someone. And who they were looking for...wasn't that obvious?

"Well, I have something to tell them... Can you wait for me for a moment?"

"Okay..." Ye Hui looked indifferent...while Ling Shen beside him was...

"Wow, you want to chat up a pretty girl when you see one?"

I knew she would say that.

"Don't talk nonsense." I raised my hand and flicked Lingcan's forehead, who always caused trouble for me. "We really know each other."

"Okay, okay...you'll give me five minutes."

She took out her phone and looked at it. "Start the timer now."

"..."

"Go ahead, it's okay." Ye Hui nodded, "It doesn't matter if it takes more than five minutes."

....I always feel that the two of them are coordinating subtly.

..................

[Easter egg?]

"Why did you stop suddenly?" Li Yinghui was forced to stop after Ming Xinxi stopped because she was holding her arm tightly.

Li Yinghui, who had doubts, naturally wanted to ask for the reason.

"Look at that guy..." She pointed to a boy across the street for Li Yinghui. He didn't look very impressive, but the two girls next to him were very eye-catching. "He was with that guy at the mall last time."

"Huh? Is that so...so they know each other, right?"

Have you forgotten him already... Ming Xinxi thought.

"Yes, I talked to him for a few words." She thought for a moment, then looked at the situation on Yi Sheji's side. "It seems that he wants to say something to us. Let's wait for him."

"Oh... there are two beautiful women with her... are they both her girlfriends?" Li Yinghui was puzzled by the situation. "But how can two girlfriends get along so well?"

Of course it's impossible...it's just superficial friendship.

"I don't know either." Ming Xinxi responded.

"What kind of person is he? Can he be trusted?" Li Yinghui seemed a little worried about the guy's character. "But if you hang out with him often, he shouldn't be a bad person."

Trusting that guy so much...Ming Xinxi felt a little uncomfortable.

“Not necessarily…”

"Um?"

"Being able to make two girls obey him shows that he is very good at talking... Maybe he is a hypocrite."

Such analysis is of course intended to indirectly discredit Senior Sun's image, and Li Yinghui and Yi Sheji are not familiar with each other at all, so if a concept is instilled first, this concept will be continuously reinforced through psychological suggestion in subsequent conversations.

"Eh?... Just a guy with a lot of lip service..."

There was suddenly a hint of disdain in Li Yinghui's eyes when she looked at him.

However, the country at that time did not realize the seriousness of the problem.

"Ah sneeze!"

"Ah... I sneezed."

"I just said something bad and this happened..."

Seeing Sheji walking towards them suddenly sneeze, the two people here actually felt a little guilty.

[The pot came from the sky]

If you want to divert attention

"Then I'll tell him."

After a brief communication, I learned that the two were worried about contacting their senior, so we agreed on the time for the next meeting, and I would inform the senior... Just in case, I also left Xiaohui's mobile phone number.

"Then I'll..." I pointed helplessly at the two people waiting for me on the other side of the road, "I'll take my leave now."

"Oh, it's okay." Senior Xiaohui didn't seem to care too much, but she still emphasized, "Remember to bring him when the time comes."

"Yes, yes, I understand..." It seems that he doesn't hate his senior.

"Well..."

When her gaze turned to Senior Xiaoqian, she seemed to be looking at Senior Xiaohui's expression, and the emotion revealed on her face was a little subtly displeased... After noticing that I was looking at her, she quickly returned to the smile she had when we first met.

"See you next time~" he said and waved goodbye to me.

"..."

Where does this familiar feeling come from?

"Have fun, you two." I said and turned to leave.

"What do you mean by having fun? We're not here to have fun..." "Oh, don't deny it~"

"..."

The relationship between the two of them is very good... That's cause for celebration.

Chapter 25: If You Want to Divert Attention

"Wow, you're quite punctual." Lingcan, who had taken out her phone to check the time as soon as she saw me approaching, looked up and sighed after I reached her side, a look of relief on her face. Then she smiled and told me the result, "Six minutes and sixty-seven seconds. Congratulations~"

"...That's seven minutes..." To be exact, it was seven minutes and seventeen seconds.

What kind of timekeeping method is this guy using? He is actually counting time.

"You know what happened to the five minutes we agreed on?" She retracted her smile and began to question, "You actually broke the agreement. Shouldn't you punish yourself?"

What? This kind of behavior of finding fault without any explanation... You must have watched some anime recently and accidentally imitated the heroines in it... For example, Haruhi Suzumiya.

"...I don't remember saying that..."

I looked at Ye Hui who was standing beside me. She was always on my side, so she would definitely not tolerate Ling Can's unreasonable behavior this time. "Right, Ye Hui, you don't have any impression..."

"You can't deny your promise, Shaji-kun. You have to abide by the agreement."

"Bar..."

Before I could even finish my words, I received such an unacceptable message... No, I don't believe it. Ye Hui would definitely smile and say something like "It's okay" or "Don't embarrass him."

What on earth happened... This shouldn't be the case... Things shouldn't be like this.

"What did you talk about? You even left your phone number, right?" Ling Can stroked her chin and stared at my face. "And when you walked over, the long-haired girl's expression didn't look like she was looking at someone she knew."

She's analyzed it to this extent... Should I admire her observation skills? But why didn't she turn her gaze to the guy next to her? She definitely doesn't have that kind of expression!

Ah...Come to think of it, I only kept her cell phone number.

"You're really trying to flirt with me, right? That's really too much." Ye Hui actually started to take it seriously. "You left us hanging here, and you even lied to us..."

It's over, the trust that had been built up has completely collapsed.

"You said we were acquaintances... Is our charm really that... low?!" I felt someone stepping on my feet again.

"It hurts, it hurts...Who mentioned the word short? Do you mind that much?"

Why did you criticize others before they said anything? Is your dad the kid named Edward?

"Sheji, you're going too far. Don't mention other people's pain." Ye Hui showed a distressed expression and touched Ling Can's head. "She's so cute even like this. You're such a bad person."

"No, that wasn't me who mentioned that at all..."

This shouldn't be the case...

"I saw it clearly. It was indeed your fault."

"..."

The two people seemed to be deliberately making things difficult for me, but I had no idea why.

"Well...anyway, they are both senior students from another city...it just happened that the person I found knew me. I asked for that person's phone number." This explanation probably makes it clearer.

"Really?" Ye Hui looked a little shaken... Sure enough, that expression just now was just an act. She had always been so gentle, but to put on that expression, I wonder what kind of effort it must have taken...

So cute.

"Don't believe him, he's a liar."

However, in comparison, Ling Shen is a bit troublesome...

"Is it so hard to trust me?" I said, raising my hand and flicking her forehead again. "You narrow-minded little dwarf."

"What did you say!"

Angry indeed.

"Oh, you're angry."

Pretending to be afraid of her, I ran quickly towards the destination, and she followed closely behind me, looking as if she wanted to cut me into pieces.

"......"

Although I diverted her attention, the consequences of being caught by her would still be very bad.

...............................

"That junior just now was called Yi... Yi what?"

Xiaohui next to me suddenly asked this and gave me a questioning look.

"Uh...Yi Sheji." I was stunned for a moment and then answered.

Why did you suddenly mention him... I couldn't help but clench my fists.

"Hmm... that junior isn't as bad as I thought. He doesn't talk in a smooth way." She smiled, and her eyes narrowed, looking very pretty. "I always think that junior's silly and dull look is a bit cute. Maybe that's why those two girls fell in love with him..."

Dumb? Really?

Think back to the way that guy acted when he talked to me...

"Senior..."

Slightly drooping eyelids, a lifeless look...

"Hmm...it seems a bit..."

An ambiguous response, somewhere between yes and no.

"Hmm..."

He accidentally noticed that my eyes became slightly solemn when I was in a daze, and that I looked like I was thinking seriously.

Are you kidding? How is that guy dumb?
