You are the first one to get into Triangle, then who am I?

But he didn't expect that Toyokawa Shoko had started preparing now, and there were still two semesters before entering high school.

"Are you starting preparations so early?"

"Scholarships aren't easy to get. If you don't lay a solid foundation beforehand, you won't be able to compete with others after you get in."

As she spoke, Toyokawa Shoko flipped open a copy of "Mathematics for College Entrance Exams." The densely packed notes on the pages stood out under the light. Sanjiao Hatsuka noticed a small speck of ink on her right index finger, evidently from prolonged writing.

Sanjiao Hatsuka quietly watched Toyokawa Shoko's focused profile. Her slightly furrowed brows and the small action of biting her lower lip from time to time revealed a stubborn seriousness.

He suddenly stood up and walked behind the bar.

"Xia?" Shoko Toyokawa looked up in confusion.

"Wait a moment." He took out his shoulder bag and took out paper, pen and several reference books - these were borrowed from Sankaku Hatsuka two days ago in order to tutor Hachiman Kailing.

………………

P.S. It was so exciting to secretly put a hat on Xiaoxiang. Hehe. It's a pity that you can't post privately so I can't see your comments QWQ (You should be able to tell that this is Da Mo pretending to be Xiao Mu...)

If you are banned, you can only post in the group, because you can't post in private for the time being.

ps2: It's the beginning of the month, can you give me all the refreshed blade monthly tickets, please~~

Chapter 211 You don't like Sa Ling, do you?

The afternoon sun streamed in through the glass windows of RiNG, casting dappled shadows on the bar. Sanjiao Chuxia sat at the bar, bored and playing with her phone.

"Why are you here so early today, Hatsuka-san?" Rinrinko walked over with a latte in her hand, her short brown hair swaying slightly. "If I remember correctly, today should be the final exam, right?"

Hearing this, Sanjiao Chuxia raised her head and smiled helplessly.

"My school is a bit special. The exams are held earlier. When I got here, I realized that everyone else hadn't arrived yet."

This was a lie. Triangle Chuxia, who was still not attending school, did not need to take the final exam. She just lied to prevent the other party from asking more questions.

Rinrinko gently placed the latte in front of him, and the coffee cup made a crisp sound when it hit the bar.

"Then why don't you go wait in the practice room, Chuxia-san? Number 3 is always reserved for you anyway, and the boss won't charge you any money."

"Can such a thing be said so openly..." Sanjiao Chuxia couldn't help but feel ashamed.

"It's okay, it's okay~" She smiled and waved her hand, "The boss is quite famous. He just reserved a practice room for his granddaughter's band. It's not a big deal."

In response to Rinrinko's words, he just took a sip of coffee silently and didn't say anything else.

(Hmm, it’s not as good as the one Xiaoxiang made for me.)

Although it is located in the center of Ikebukuro, RiNG's main customers are students, and on exam days like this, there are far fewer customers than usual.

Even Rinrinko was so bored that she sat opposite Sanka Hatsuka. Even though the part-time workers Toyama Kasumi and Yamabuki Sayaka were absent because they had exams, she still had nothing to do.

"Come to think of it, doesn't RiNG have any other staff? If only Kasumi-san and Saaya-san are working part-time, they won't be staffed if Poppin' Party has a performance."

"Why, Hatsuka-san, do you want to come to [RiNG] part-time? The boss would probably welcome you."

"I'm afraid you're treating me as a free babysitter to take care of little Lenai." Sanjiao Chuxia handed over the empty coffee cup and made a joke.

"That's not the case." Rinrinko chuckled, covering her mouth. "But if that happens, Ms. Marina from CiRCLE will come back to help."

She took the coffee cup and turned to the sink to wash it.

"That's just like robbing Peter to pay Paul..."

But anyway, [RiNG] has never encountered a situation where it was short of manpower and couldn't handle the work, and he didn't need to worry about such things.

Sanjiao Chuxia reopened her phone and stayed on the chat screen with Ruoye Mu.

UIKA: Little Cucumber, can you come directly to [RiNG] after school tomorrow? I have something I want to talk to you alone.

Mutsumi: ...I understand.

This is the chat record between him and Ruoye Mu last night.

(Something was a little too much about the cucumber at Le Blanc yesterday afternoon.)

(Not only did he call me "Xiao Xia", he also did that kind of thing...)

When he thought of the little action that Wakaba Mu made under the table when he was studying with Toyokawa Shoko that day, even Sanjiao Chuxia, who had already taken that step, couldn't help but blush.

In order to find out the reason, he specially gave [Personaction] a day off in the group under the excuse of "just finished the exam and took a day off".

"But, Hatsuka-san," Rinrinko said, walking over, wiping her coffee cup with a gossipy look on her face. "Why do you only call Sayane 'Saya-san'?"

Except for a few members of the same band as Sanka Hatsuka, he called almost everyone else "senior", and only Yamabuki Sayaka was "sister", so it was not surprising that he attracted her attention.

"You don't like Saaya, do you~"

"Ahem!" Sanjiao Chuxia almost choked on her own saliva and looked at her speechlessly, "Rinrinzi-san, your thinking is too unconventional. How could you think of going up in this direction..."

Rinrinko leaned against the bar with a smile on her face, supporting her chin with one hand. "Isn't it true? Saaya is the most popular employee in our store. She's gentle and mature, has a good figure, is beautiful, and can take care of people... Isn't it normal to like her?"

Her tone was teasing, and she observed Sanjiao Hatsuxia's reaction with interest.

However, Sanjiao Chuxia was no longer the Xiao Chuan who would blush and have his heart beat fast because of such teasing. He did not show any reaction that would interest Rinrinzi.

"Saiya-san is indeed very gentle, but I just think the name 'Saiya-san' is more catchy. Also, I often go to Yamabuki Bakery to buy bread, so I'm more familiar with her."

"Ah~ That's boring. Junior high school students should act like junior high school students. When teased by an older sister, they should just blush obediently~"

In response, Sankaku Hatsuka just sighed helplessly, tapping her fingers lightly on the bar counter: "Rinrinko-san, I already have a girlfriend. It would be too fake to blush over a joke like that."

This sentence is like a stone thrown into a calm lake.

"Eh hey hey hey!" Rinrinzi's eyes suddenly widened, and her hand that was wiping the cup stopped. "Is this true?"

"Of course it's true. There's no need for me to lie about something like this."

She immediately leaned closer, her eyes full of curiosity. "Who is that? Someone from school? Someone from Personaction? Or someone from another band?"

"Well... we'll keep it a secret for now."

After saying that, Sankaku Hatsuka deliberately revealed a mysterious smile on her face, which made Rinrinko feel itchy in her heart.

Sankaku Chuhua's name definitely cannot be told, and it is very likely that Toyokawa Shoko does not know him, so it is better not to say anything at all.

Anyway, there was no way he would admit that he had the intention of deliberately keeping Rinrinko in suspense.

"Could it be little Lenai?" she suddenly exclaimed, but she controlled her voice well so no one else could hear. "Although being the boss's grandson-in-law is indeed very tempting, and little Lenai is very clingy to you, but she's only in the eighth grade!"

"I treat little Lenai as my sister (pet), how could I do such a thing." Sanjiao Chuxia rolled her eyes at her.

"And if you insist, I'm only one year older than her..."

(Hey, am I still this young?)

Sanjiao Chuxia, who entered society almost a year early, suddenly realized that she was only 15 years old.

………………

ps: I worked on the code for a whole day, but forgot to write the extra chapter for Big Cat. It’s too late, and I can’t write the extra chapter either. I regret to leave. QWQ

ps2: I also like Sister Saaya. A gentle and virtuous girl like her is the most suitable to be a wife?

Chapter 212 Is It... Another Personality?

"Could that be... Mu?"

"Neither, Rinrinko-san, please stop guessing." Sanka Hatsuka answered while looking at her phone, and replied to Toyokawa Shoko's message.

Sakiko: Xia, summer vacation is coming soon. Do you want to go out and play together?

UIKA: Whether it's summer vacation or not has nothing to do with us, right? Or is Xiaoxiang just looking for an excuse to date me?

Sakiko: Xia, just keep it to yourself, don’t say it out loud…

Looking at the message sent by the other party, Sanjiao Chuxia couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and his fingers tapped quickly on the screen.

UIKA: I want Xiaoxiang to speak to me more frankly.

UIKA: It would be even better if you could send voice messages directly (^人^)

Sakiko: ...Natsu has become more and more cunning recently.

UIKA: I only do this to Xiaoxiang~

Because he is usually in a passive position with Triangle Chuhua, he can only tease Toyokawa Shoko.

The message shows that it has been read, but the other party has not replied to the message for a long time. Maybe he is shy.

(Xiaoxiang is so cute.)

At that moment, the sound of RiNG's automatic door opening reached Sanjiao Hatsuka's ears. He looked up and saw a girl as delicate as a doll walking in.

"Xia." Ruoye Mu walked up to him obediently, schoolbag in hand, "I'm here."

"The exam ended earlier than expected."

She nodded slightly and looked at Sanjiao Chuxia's face. She didn't know what she remembered, and the tips of her ears turned slightly red.

Linlinzi handed over a glass of iced lemonade at the right time: "Xiao Mu, would you like something to drink?"

"No need." Ruoye Mu replied.

Sanjiao Chuxia took a deep breath and stood up from the high stool: "Let's go to the practice room."

"Rinrinko-san, practice room number 3 is still empty, right?"

"Hmm~" She smiled meaningfully, "Remember to lock the door."

Hearing this, the crimson on Ruoye Mu's ears instantly spread to his cheeks. Sanjiao Chuxia simply pretended not to hear and took her wrist and walked quickly towards the stairs. The wooden stairs creaked slightly under his feet.

The second-floor corridor was so quiet that you could hear the whirring of the air conditioner. Sanjiao Chuxia pushed open the door to Practice Room 3. Sunlight filtered through the blinds, casting stripes of light and shadow on the floor.

He waited for Ye Mu to come in, then gently closed the door and locked it.

"Yesterday..." Sanjiao Chuxia turned around and found that she was lowering her head, with her hands folded in front of her body, her fingertips slightly white, and she was motionless like a child who had done something wrong.

"Cucumber." He took a few steps closer, his voice softening unconsciously. "Why did you do that at Loublanc yesterday?"

Ruoye Mu's fingers twisted the hem of her skirt unconsciously, her lips slightly pursed, and after a long while she whispered, "I'm sorry."

"I'm not blaming you." Looking at the red tips of her ears, Sanjiao Chuxia sighed, "I just want to know the reason."

"..."

She didn't say anything, but just lowered her head even more, as if saying, "I know I was wrong, you can do anything to me, but I won't tell anyone."

Seeing this, Sanjiao Chuxia slowly walked up to her and put his hands on her shoulders.

"Little Cucumber, look up at me." His voice was not loud, but it was firm and could not be refused.

Ruoye Mu's eyelashes fluttered a few times, and he finally raised his face slowly. His pale golden eyes were filled with complex emotions, like the shimmering surface of a lake under the moonlight.

"Can you tell me, Cucumber, I'm worried about you."

"..."

Her lips trembled slightly, and a trace of struggle flashed in her eyes. She turned her head slightly to avoid Sanjiao Chuxia's concerned gaze.

Sanjiao Chuxia could feel her shoulders trembling slightly under his palms. The sunlight filtered through the gaps in the blinds, casting tiny specks of light on her face, making her expression seem even more fragile and confused.

"Because..." He hesitated, "I was with Xiaoxiang that day, so..."

"No!" Ruoye Mu shook his head violently, his light green hair swaying slightly with the movement. "Xia Hexiang... they are a good match."

Even at this point, she still had no intention of snatching away the person her childhood sweetheart loved—

Although Sanjiao Hatsuka actually already has a lover.

"Then why..."

"I don't know..." Ruo Yemu's voice became smaller and smaller, "Don't ask..."

The practice room fell into a brief silence.

Staring at her evasive eyes, Sanjiao Chuxia recalled the several times when Ruoye Mu behaved abnormally, and a bold guess emerged in his mind.

"Little Cucumber." He gently cupped her face and forced her to look him in the eye. "It wasn't you who did that at Le Blanc yesterday... right?"

"!!!"
