My Cartoonist Girlfriend

Chapter 196: Eriri turns on the show-off mode (1/3)

On the way to school, Eriri took Asakura Feng's hand and asked, "Feng-jun, it's Senior Shirogane's birthday in two days. Do you have any plans to give him a birthday present?"

"That's the idea."

Asakura Feng nodded and said, "I just haven't decided what to give. Eriri, you should first find out what Shinomiya-senpai is going to give. At least it won't conflict with hers. Then we can choose and arrange to send it to the Shuchiin Student Council."

"Okay, I'll send a message to Senior now."

Eriri immediately took out her cell phone and asked Kaguya Shinomiya.

Shinomiya Kaguya was also on the bus to school at this time, and she replied quickly after receiving the message.

"Feng Jun, senior sister replied to the message." Ying Lili said while looking at the message on her phone, "Senior sister wants to give me a folding fan with her own inscription, this won't conflict with others!"

"Indeed, then let's think about it today, what birthday gift to give Senior Baiyin." After a pause, Asakura Feng said, "But I think we should not send it to school. What if Senior Shinomiya happens to be celebrating for Senior? That would not be good."

Ying Lili thought about it and realized that it was true: "Then why not just send it to Senior's home? I'll ask Senior Shirogane for his address at noon, and we'll have someone send it over after we've chosen the gift."

After confirming this matter, the two of them were almost at the school gate.

After they separated and arrived at their respective classrooms, Eriri sat down in her seat happily.

Usami, who arrived a little earlier, saw Eriri and walked over curiously and said, "Good morning, Eriri. You seem to be in a good mood today."

"Morning to you, Mizuki." Eriri nodded with a smile, "Yeah, I'm in a good mood today!"

Usami observed Eriri with a curious look and guessed, "Is it because of what happened when you guys went out to eat yesterday?"

"Hey hey hey~~~"

Eriri's face was flushed with happiness. She waved to Usami and asked her to come closer to her. Then she whispered, "Yesterday..."

After listening to Eriri's story, Usami covered her mouth in surprise to prevent herself from screaming. Her eyes fell on Eriri's neck and she also saw a necklace. Eriri never wore it before, so this must be it.

Looking at Eriri's happy look, Usami was really envious. Then thinking about the boy she had a crush on... He was probably still thinking about what kind of two-dimensional wife he would draw for the afternoon club activity.

Alas, why is the gap between people so big?

Thinking of this, Usami couldn't help but distance herself from Eriri.

"Rui Xi, what's wrong with you?"

"......" Usami sighed and said, "Eri, please don't exude this kind of happiness all the time. I'm single."

"Uh... ahahaha, sorry sorry."

Only then did Eriri react and quickly apologized to her friend. There was really no other way. Eriri had not completely recovered from what happened yesterday. Whenever she thought about it, she couldn't hide the smile on her face.

Looking at Eriri's expression, which showed no remorse despite her apology, Usami thought, this is just the 100-day anniversary of their relationship, and Eriri is like this, what should I do if things continue like this? Will she be stuffed to death?

Usami's hopeless expression also attracted the attention of other girls around her, and they all came over to ask curiously.

The person at the center of the incident, Eriri, rarely concealed anything today. She took the initiative to show off her love to the world, as if she wanted the whole world to know.

For a moment, the girls in Class A expressed their admiration. As for the boys, they had already seen through the mundane world.

However, there was no such situation with Asakura Kaede. She walked into the classroom calmly and put down her schoolbag calmly.

Then, he yawned.

This morning, Kitamura Yusaku had no work for the student union and had already arrived in the classroom. Seeing Asakura Feng yawning, he said in surprise: "It's hard, Asakura, you are actually sleepy, could it be..."

As he said this, he gave Asakura Kaede an obscene smile.

Asakura Feng gave this guy a dead look and said in a low voice: "I remember that the student council president is very popular among the second graders. Instead of caring about me, you might as well care about whether she will be pursued by someone else one day."

Kitamura Yusaku never expected that Asakura Kaede would directly use a big move. He was stunned for a moment, took a breath, and smiled bitterly: "Please, don't be such a pessimist, okay? I can't stand your scares."

Spreading his hands, Asakura Feng smiled and said, "How can you call me a crow's mouth? Everyone knows who are the most popular girls in the second year of high school in our school, right?"

Scratching his cheek, Kitamura Yusaku nodded helplessly: "Yes, besides Kasumigaoka-senpai, it's the president."

As for Kasumigaoka Utaha, she is a literary girl with a standard mature woman figure, while as for the student council president Kano Sumire, her figure is not bad at all and her appearance is also top-notch, but compared to Kasumigaoka Utaha, she is more capable. For some boys, Kano Sumire is more attractive.

Moving his chair over, Kitamura Yusaku whispered, "Come to think of it, Asakura, what you said is indeed correct. During the time I have been in the student council, I have seen many boys run to the president to show their courtesy. But with the president's personality, he would be dismissive of those boys."

"So, have you ever thought about taking action?"

When asked by Asakura Feng, Kitamura Yusaku smiled awkwardly and said, "As for me, I think I should make some achievements in the work of the student union. After getting to know the president for some time, I know that he values ​​ability more. As long as I perform well enough, I will have a chance to get the president's attention, right?"

Patting Kitamura on the shoulder, Asakura Feng smiled and said, "Then you have to work hard. If you can take over the position of student council president, you can show your excellence even more."

"Haha, that's what I thought too. I also want to achieve some results in the softball club."

"What are the results of the softball club?"

At this moment, Takasu Ryuji also came to the classroom and joined the conversation, saying, "Kitamura, you have to study and participate in the student union. Can you really take care of the softball club? I am already exhausted just by studying and working part-time."

"Don't worry!"

Patting his chest, Kitamura Yusaku said confidently: "Didn't Asakura say that? People's physiques cannot be generalized. This matter is nothing to me!"

Well, if compared with Baiyin Yuxing, at least Kitamura's physique is much better than Baiyin Yuxing, and he still has no dark circles under his eyes.

Eriri's excitement lasted for almost the entire morning. Even when she ran into Kasumigaoka Utaha at the cafeteria for lunch at noon, Eriri told her about this matter.

This resulted in Kasumigaoka Utaha, who happened to be eating alone and shared a table with Asakura Kaede and Eriri, not eating much for lunch and feeling full.

Looking at the half bowl of rice left in front of her, she said, "Thank you. If this happens a few more times, I will definitely lose a lot of weight..."

After hearing this, Asakura Feng couldn't help laughing. He patted Eriri's head and said, "Alright, alright, why are you so excited all of a sudden? If you keep going like this, everyone in the school will know about it."

"Oh... I know." Ying Lili said a little embarrassedly, "It's just that when someone asks me, I can't help but say it. Next time I will pay attention..."

With her chin supported by one hand, Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at Eriri and said, "I really didn't expect that you have changed a lot compared to before, Eriri. You are really two different people now compared to when I first met you."

"Huh? Is it that exaggerated?"

After hearing this, Ying Lili couldn't help but touch her face and said puzzledly: "I don't think anything has changed."

"Yep."

Kasumigaoka Utaha said, "At least she has become more straightforward. She speaks out what she thinks. I think this is all due to Asakura-kun. It is said that when two people spend a long time together, they will gradually become similar."

“Similar?”

Eriri thought about it, glanced at Asakura Kaede beside her, and smiled sweetly: "Hehe, it seems so."

Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled bitterly and shook her head. It seemed that she would have to eat this dog food for a long time.

In the afternoon, there are club activities.

Eriri was drawing the comic strip when she suddenly stopped and started gesturing with her hands.

"Hmm... like this? That doesn't seem right."

Asakura Kaede, who was editing the storyboard, saw what was happening on Eriri's side, stopped writing and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Mr. Feng."

Eriri turned around, gestured with her hands as if she was holding a knife, and said, "I can't quite draw a picture of a protagonist holding a knife and swinging it gracefully. It always feels like something is wrong!"

On the other side, Subaru Uchimaki asked, "Is it a battle move? Sawamura has never drawn these before, right?"

Eriri nodded. She had only drawn fan fiction before and had never drawn a battle-themed one.

The president, who was lying on his side and playing with his phone, said, "Regarding this, how about going to the Kendo Club to learn from them?"

However, Eriri said directly: "It's useless. I have watched some kendo videos and made some sketches myself, but I always feel that it is not right. I don't want the kind of kendo moves, but... well, how should I put it? It should be elegant and handsome, and it should fit the characteristics of the protagonist, but it can't make people who know the business think that I drew it randomly."

Eriri's requirements are indeed a lot, but they are also reasonable. As a cartoonist, it is normal to pursue perfection in details.

Asakura Feng didn't have a good solution for Eriri's distress. After thinking for a while, he could only say, "If Eriri wants to talk about ordinary fighting, I have learned some, but I don't know much about kendo. How about we buy some comics after school, and then find some animations with this kind of fighting?"

"Well! It's settled!" Ying Lili clenched her fists and said, "We must get this done today, otherwise I won't be in the mood to paint later! Ah, no, no, Feng Jun, we have to leave now!"

Having said that, he turned off the computer and dragged Asakura Feng out.

There was no other way, Asakura Feng could only follow Eriri's wishes, packed up the things, and said to the other three people in the art club: "Then we will leave first, see you tomorrow."

"We're leaving first, bye!"

"boom"

As the door to the club room closed, Usami said, "They were really quick and decisive. They just rushed out."

Uchimaki Subaru said, "It's normal. Manga artists have very tight schedules, not to mention that they update weekly. Even if they have some manuscripts saved, they can't keep procrastinating."

After hearing this, Usami nodded in understanding and then continued with the practice at hand.

..........

After leaving school, Asakura Kaede and Eriri went straight to a nearby bookstore and started picking out comics.

"Ah, here's a complete set of Rurouni Kenshin, just buy it!"

Eriri said without hesitation after seeing the Rurouni Kenshin volume on the bookshelf.

Asakura Feng looked at the long row of Rurouni Kenshin single volumes on the bookshelf and sighed, "Fortunately, they are not old editions, otherwise there would be 28 volumes, more than these."

Having said that, since Eriri said so, there was naturally no problem buying this set. Asakura Kaede directly called the owner of the bookstore and went to the warehouse to get a brand new set.

"Eri, do you want other comics?"

"Others~~" After taking a look around, Eriri shook her head and said, "As for comics, let's just use this one for now. We'll look for anime when we get back. We have to study it carefully!"

Originally, Eriri thought she had no problem drawing, but after actually starting today, she found that that little draft was of no use at all.

After paying, I found that there were 22 single-volume comic books, which were quite heavy in my hand.

After considering it for a while, Asakura Feng said to Eriri, "Let's go. Now that we've bought the comics, it's time to go buy groceries."

"it is good!"

Eriri happily agreed, looking at the bag in Asakura Feng's hand and asked, "Feng-kun, is it heavy? Would you mind giving me some?"

"No need, this weight is no problem for me." He pinched Eriri's cheek affectionately and said to Asakura Feng, "But, after we finish shopping, I'll let you take some of the vegetables, Eriri."

"no problem!"

Since they started going to school, although they still adhered to the principle of cooking for themselves, in order not to waste too much time, they chose relatively simple dishes for dinner.

They bought a bunch of vegetables and meat, and even saw a nice watermelon and bought one too. The two returned home very satisfied.

However, just as he put down the things in his hands, Asakura Feng realized belatedly that he seemed to have forgotten to buy something.

Stop the elf...didn't buy it.

Scratching his head in distress, Asakura Feng glanced towards the bedroom. Eriri had gone to change clothes.

So, after Eriri changed her clothes and came out, Asakura said to her, "Eri, I'm going to the convenience store. I forgot to buy something. You wash the vegetables first."

"Ugh?"

Looking at Asakura Kaede who changed her shoes quickly, Eriri didn't have time to ask what she wanted to buy before she went out.

Tilting her head, Eriri muttered to herself, "What on earth is this?"

Ten minutes later, Asakura Kaede returned home.

Ying Lili looked at Asakura Feng who came in with a bag in his hand, put down the kitchen knife and trotted over, and asked curiously: "Feng Jun, what did you buy..."

When she opened the bag, she saw several boxes inside, and her little face turned red instantly.

Asakura Feng smiled and said, "I ran out of it last night, so I have to go get some more. I had remembered it this morning, but after buying comics and vegetables on the way back, I forgot about it. Okay, I'll put the things away, and then I'll make dinner."

It wasn't until Asakura Feng put the things away that Eriri asked, "Feng-kun, when you went to buy it, didn't the convenience store clerk say anything?"

"What can you say? Isn't this just normal shopping?"

Asakura Kaede said with a smile.

Of course, he was a little nervous at first, but after seeing the clerk's expressionless face, he completely relaxed.

Eriri couldn't refute it for a moment, so she could only say, "If I were asked to go to a store to buy something like this, I would never dare to do it... By the way, can't I buy it online?"
