182, Feelings
In the setting sun, Izumo Asana sat blankly in the pavilion, looking at the spirited young man in front of her.
Today she was full of joy and anticipation as she went with him to visit his alma mater, but she had never expected that the tour suddenly became strange.
Yes, very strange.
The young man told her a lot of things that she had never thought of.
Although she didn't understand everything, she thought she understood the main idea of what he said.
Because of the will left by her grandfather, she was in an advantageous position compared to her parents, because she could use this position to resist her parents' arrangements, and there was no need for her to obey them at all.
Logically speaking, Asana admitted that what he said should be right. After all, as long as she insisted on not getting married, her parents would not be able to use the inheritance, so they should instead obey her opinion.
But...is everything in this world really logical?
Going against her parents... was truly unimaginable to Asana.
From childhood to adulthood, she was taught to obey her parents, and she has always done so. Except for some small things, she has hardly ever disobeyed her parents' will.
However, for the sake of the young man in front of her, she had used a little trick.
When she thought of this, she couldn't help but raise her eyelids slightly and glance at the other person.
(3④2967④65)
Just by looking at him, one could feel the strong willpower burning in him at this moment. This willpower seemed to bring a burning sensation, so that Asana immediately retracted his gaze.

This is the confidence and willpower that only people who firmly believe that what they are doing is right can have.
Asana couldn't figure out whether he was right or not, but there was a faint voice in her heart telling her that maybe he was right.
But...even if he is right, what should we do?
Asana fell into distress again.
"So what do you think I should do?" she asked in a low voice with her head lowered.

"I've already said it before. As long as you are willing, you can decide your own life from this second on." Mogami Jun replied immediately. "You just need to tell your parents about your idea and stick to it. Really, I've analyzed it for you. You are really on the advantageous side. Maybe at the beginning, they will blame you harshly, but as long as you stick to your own opinion, they will not be able to force you. On the contrary, they will try to please you in the end - I believe this must be the case."
"But how can I go against their opinions?" Chaona was still a little hesitant, "They are my parents!"
"Even parents don't have the right to ask their children to obey any of their willful ideas..." Mogami Jun lowered his voice a little, "Asana, I'm not instigating you to break up with them, I'm just saying that you can stick to your position on this matter. As long as you insist, then you can decide your own life!"
As he spoke, Jun Mogami also sighed in his heart.
Nowadays, it is rare to find such a filial child. Most children don’t even remember to be grateful to their parents…
However, Asana's filial piety is a bit too much. She easily hands over her entire life to her parents to arrange as they please. This is probably what is called foolish filial piety.
Asana probably understood what Mogami Jun meant.
But her expression was uncertain, and it was obvious that she was still struggling with her inner struggle.
After a long time, she sighed softly.
"Jun, I... I know that for people like you and Umemiya-senpai, sticking to your own will is more important than anything else. You are both stubborn and don't allow others to control you. I envy people like you. You are so dazzling. But I can't do it. Not everyone is exactly the same, right? You should be able to imagine how my parents will face me once I express this opinion... So... I don't want to face the consequences of breaking up with my parents. It's too terrible. I'm scared just thinking about it."
Then she closed her eyes, as if she was afraid to face Jun Mogami.
"You...you can mock me as much as you want. I know that this is very weak and inappropriate of me, but I really can't do what you said..."
"No, don't worry, I won't laugh at you." Mogami Jun shook his head. "People have various ways of living in this world, and choosing to obey is one of them. Even if some people choose this way, it doesn't matter."
"But you won't choose that, right?" Asana smiled bitterly.
Then, she looked at Mogami Jun again, her eyes becoming a little strange, "But I feel that even if they are two different paths, if the two paths eventually intersect, there won't be much difference in terms of the result, right? What's important is the result. As long as the result is correct, then whether it was given to me by my parents or I found it with my own eyes open, what does it matter?"
Mogami Jun's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly understood what Asana was implying.
"I think the result is important, but the process is equally important. I don't want to be the one that others have no choice but to choose. I just want to be the one who is recognized as 'Ah, I don't need any other choice besides him.'" So, Mogami Jun answered. "Otherwise, there will be no such bond between the two of us..."
"But... I have never regarded you as a helpless choice. Even if I do this... even if I do this, it is my own choice." Asana suddenly interrupted Mogami Jun's words, looking a little excited, "If it wasn't my own choice, we wouldn't have had any ties from the beginning!"
"Ah? What do you mean?" Mogami Jun was a little confused.
"When we first met in the shrine, we drew lots. Do you remember?" Asana looked away. "Do you know why we drew lots?"
"Because... because your parents really believe in this." Mogami Jun answered in a low voice.
"Yes, they all believed it, and I also had my doubts. I guess you don't think so. There are still people who believe this in this era..." Asana smiled bitterly again, "Well, this is not important. What's important is, do you still remember the result of our draw?"
"Ah, I remember." Mogami Jun nodded, "I drew Xiaoji at that time, and the one you drew... I think you just put it away, right?"
He thought about it for a while, then remembered, "Oh, by the way, after I went back, my grandpa said I got a lucky draw, so your parents were very satisfied, right?"
"I lied to you all. My luck isn't that good. On the contrary, it's pretty bad." Asana smiled bitterly and shook her head. "I drew... the bad luck."
"Ah?! Uh..." Jun Mogami was speechless for a moment.
It's actually a big disaster?
Isn't this a completely ominous sign?
If Asana's parents knew about this, how could they allow the two sides to continue to interact since they are so superstitious?
and so……
"You hid the lot and told your parents that the lot you drew was auspicious?"
"Yes, I did. I have hung the stick back. I hope the God can forgive me." Chao Nai nodded gently. "Also, I didn't say that I was the only one who drew the lucky number. I told my parents that both of us got the lucky number. So they were very happy and felt that this was the God's favor and would definitely bring honor to our family..."
"Amazing—" Jun Mogami was dumbfounded and amazed. "Too amazing."
Unexpectedly, when the two met for the first time, Asana had already played a trick of changing lots in front of the gods...
If it was someone like Mogami Jun, he wouldn't care at all and wouldn't feel any guilt, but Asana is different. She really did this with a sense of guilt.
He looked at Asana, and his gaze was slightly different.
I originally thought that she was just an innocent young lady who completely obeyed her parents, but now it seems that she still has some persistence of her own deep in her heart.
Children can be taught.
Especially, the one she insisted on was herself...
Thinking about it, I feel a little happy.
"Why do you do this?" he asked after a moment's silence.
"What other reasons could there be?" Chaona still smiled bitterly. "You are so smart that you should have thought of it in an instant, right? Of course, it is to continue to have the opportunity to meet you. If I tell the truth to my parents, I am afraid we will never have the chance to sit face to face like today again."
"Thank you for thinking so highly of me." Jun Mogami thought about it and could only answer like this in the end.
This sudden and unexpected news made him a little confused.
Of course, I am more proud.
It turns out that I really caught people’s attention at first sight…
This is probably the first time in my life.
And by such an outstanding girl.

Maybe this is what is called fate?
"You should believe it now, right? It's not... the reason why I continue to see you is not because of my parents' coercion, nor is it because I have no choice. It's me... I made the choice on my own initiative despite the advice of the Lord God. I don't know whether this choice is good or bad, but I know this is what I chose!" Asana took a deep breath, suppressed the tension in his heart, and then looked at Mogami Jun, saying word by word, "I can't figure out what the Lord God means, but even so, I hope to continue."
Then, she emphasized her voice again, "That's right, I don't dare to break up with my parents. I'm a coward and I cling to their protection. But even so, I have my own ideas. So even if you despise me, don't belittle me in your heart, okay? You... you are not my choice casually with my eyes closed and relying on drawing lots. I made the choice seriously!"
Jun Mogami kept looking at Asana and listening to her every word.
Although she was a little excited and even a little incoherent, it was enough to impress him.
He suddenly saw the flash of light in Asana again.
That flash of inner will, the one he cherished.
"I'm sorry. Some of the things I said just now may have been too harsh. I apologize to you." He apologized honestly.
"No, I should be the one apologizing. I yelled at you without your permission and said something that bothered you so much..." Asana calmed down, smiled bitterly, bent over, and apologized to Mogami Jun, "These words are just nonsense from me. If you don't want to listen, just pretend you didn't hear them. I'm not complaining to you, nor am I begging you to do something for me... I just want to tell you that I'm not just a puppet. Even people like me sometimes pursue the things they cherish a little bit..."
"I see..." Mogami Jun nodded. "Then - let's continue to get to know each other. There will always be opportunities in the future."
"Eh?" Asana opened her mouth slightly, not quite understanding the change in Mogami Jun's attitude.
"Now that you've said this, if I still turn a deaf ear to you, I'd be too blind—" Mogami Jun smiled, "Let's just interact like normal friends from now on. Parents, gods, screw them. This is our business, what does it have to do with them? Let's just be like normal people and see how far our bond will go, and then decide what to do."
Asana blinked in confusion.
"To be honest, I still don't quite understand... Anyway, you want us to continue our relationship, right?"
"Yes, that's it in simple terms." Mogami Jun nodded again. "Don't think of this as my charity. I'm not qualified. What I mean is, are you willing... willing to give me a chance to continue to associate with you, Asana?"
Asana fell into silence, obviously not yet recovered from the accident.
"So, which Asana do you want? The usual one, or the one just now?" Asana suddenly asked after a long time.
"I like both the normal Asana and the Asana that was in front of me just now." Mogami Jun smiled. "If I have to make a comparison, I can only say that I like the kind, humble, gentle, but opinionated Asana - a fusion of the two Asanas?"
"Honestly, I don't understand." Asana answered honestly.
"That's right, you don't understand. Why do you have to pay attention to my preferences? Your charm exists because of yourself. Asana is already cute even if she's sitting here." Mogami Jun replied with a smile.
Then he became a little more serious.
"Also, I want to emphasize again that I hope you stay on your parents' side. No matter what they say or what pressure they put on you, you must stick to your own position. No one can force you, and you are definitely not alone. At least I am on your side."
"No matter what the situation is?" Asana asked in a low voice.
"No matter what the circumstances." Mogami Jun answered seriously.
Asana stared at Mogami Jun blankly, then suddenly laughed, and there were many complicated emotions in this smile.
"Thank you. I don't know why, but I just believe you..."

"Thank you. I don't know why, but I just believe you..."
Asana smiled happily, perhaps feeling lucky that she had a good friend again.
However, while Jun Mogami was happy, he was thinking about something in his heart.
After Asana's narration, he already had a rough idea of the whole incident in his mind.
Grandpa pushed hard - the two went to a shrine for a blind date, and then drew lots on the spot - he drew Kokichi, and Asana drew the worst lot - she hid the lot, and then told her parents that they both drew the best lot - Asana's parents believed that it was a blessing from the gods, so they actively promoted the marriage.
In other words, there were basically no obstacles between the two of them, and if he wanted, they could get engaged almost immediately.
Wow...
It's impossible not to be excited.
He couldn't help but glance at Asana again.
Because of the excitement just now and the shyness now, Asana's face was flushed, and coupled with that gentle smile, she looked very cute no matter how you looked at her.
When the two first met, Asana was wearing a kimono, which made her look dignified and girlish; now she is wearing a girls' school uniform, which makes her look cute and fresh. But no matter what she wears, she always makes people feel that "it's so comfortable to sit with her." Asana's kind and gentle personality will never make anyone dislike her.
What would happen if I really sat with her forever and ever?
Probably it won't get too bad.
So, on impulse, he proposed, "Let's start dating again from the beginning," and Asana agreed immediately. Maybe she had been waiting for this proposal.
