Having said that, as if she had used up all her strength, Nagasaki Motoyo lowered her head again, trying hard to suppress the shame that overwhelmed her and that she did not have the courage to meet Bai Qiu's eyes.
All of this happened in just a few seconds.
Silence fell, broken only by the sound of the film.
Bai Qiu paused for a moment, lost in thought.
The image of Xiangzi hugging him that day and stealing a kiss on his cheek flashed before my eyes...
The lights on the stage, singing a song dedicated to him, appeared as if reaching out to grasp his hand...
Time slowly passed, and another ten seconds or so went by.
At this point, silence actually means that the answer is not good.
Nagasaki Motoyo seems to be gradually realizing this as well.
She slowly raised her head and looked at Bai Qiu with trepidation.
"I'm sorry, Su Shi." Bai Qiu took a light breath and tried to speak in his gentlest tone, answering earnestly:
"I cannot agree to that."
"Eh?" Nagasaki Motoyo murmured, her pupils dilating slightly, her brows showing visible panic and helplessness.
"Why……?"
Su Shi subconsciously asked
She stared blankly at Bai Qiu.
Bai Qiu shook his head, sighed inwardly, and offered no explanation.
He couldn't tell Su Shi directly that, in terms of romantic feelings, he seemed to have more feelings for Deng and Xiangzi, so he rejected her.
This might be one reason, but Bai Qiu was also worried that he might ruin their relationship.
"At least tell me why, okay?"
Nagasaki Motoyo tried to speak, her fingers touching Bai Qiu's arm.
Although she was already feeling sad, she still wanted to know the reason for the failure.
Does Bai Qiu hate me?
"No." Bai Qiu spoke almost immediately, her gaze softening as she looked helplessly at the girl before her.
"Su Shi, you are very kind. You are gentle to everyone, and you are gentle to me too. How could I hate you?"
Nagasaki Motoyo pursed her lips, her eyes beginning to well up with tears.
"why?"
“But not disliking someone doesn’t mean liking them, Su Shi.” Bai Qiu had no choice but to explain, but she was afraid of hurting Su Shi. “I don’t have those feelings for you that I want to be in a relationship with.”
"……Um."
After a while, Nagasaki Motoyo slowly nodded. She released her hand from Bai Qiu's arm, wiped her eyes, and then said:
"Does Bai Qiu prefer Xiangzi? Or perhaps Deng?"
As Su Shi released her hand, Bai Qiu felt a sense of emptiness in her heart.
But seeing that Su Shi's condition didn't seem as bad as he had imagined, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Bai Qiuchao Su Shi gave a bitter smile.
Don't know how to answer.
It's not easy to say these things to Su Shi, and also, he himself may not have realized his own feelings for them.
So Bai Qiu took a few tissues from the table and handed them to Nagasaki Motoyo.
Nagasaki Motoyo accepted it, but only held it tightly in her hand.
A few tears welled up in her eyes, but not many, and she was able to hold them back. What she felt more was an indescribable emptiness in her heart.
Bai Qiu saw this and wanted to say something to comfort Su Shi.
But once again, I didn't know what to say.
Sigh, Bai Qiu cursed himself inwardly.
Don't you usually spout a lot of inspirational quotes?
But now, faced with the fact that he was the culprit who had caused Su Shi's heartbreak, he truly had nothing to say.
"Um, Su Shi, we are still very good friends."
"……Um."
Nagasaki Motoyo only gave a perfunctory reply.
Who wants to be just friends with you...?
The movie is still playing.
The distance between the two of them sitting hadn't changed much, but Su Shi no longer held Bai Qiu's arm.
In the time that followed, the two rarely interacted.
The atmosphere was somewhat stiff and awkward.
Time just kept passing by.
Bai Qiu didn't dare or want to leave just like that; he was still somewhat worried about Su Shi.
It wasn't until almost eleven o'clock that Su Shi managed a weak smile and spoke softly:
"I'm all right."
"Bai Qiu, you should go back first."
Bai Qiu looked at her, remained silent for two seconds, and sighed inwardly: "Okay, call me if you need anything."
Nagasaki Motoyo nodded and quietly watched Bai Qiu's retreating figure.
Her gaze returned to the large television screen only after she heard the door slam shut.
The spacious two-story mansion once again brought her back to her lonely moments.
In the movie, the male and female protagonists successfully confessed their feelings to each other and got together. The movie presented a heartwarming scene of them embracing and kissing.
In reality, Nagasaki Motoyo's confession failed.
The movie ended, but Nagasaki Motoyo had no energy and no desire to turn off the TV; she didn't want to move at all.
Nagasaki Sose lay down on her side in the spot where Shirai had just been sitting, her long flaxen hair falling across her face.
Chapter 199 Mygo will also participate.
Bai Qiu returned home, looked down at the bouquet of bright flowers he was holding, and fell into a brief silence.
The flowers were beautiful, but Bai Qiu was also a little worried at this moment.
Now it's all in vain.
Sigh, how am I supposed to get along with Su Shi now?
He did bring back the flowers that Su Shi had given him.
If we stay there, Su Shi will probably be even more upset when she sees us.
And this was the first bouquet of flowers he had ever received, so Bai Qiu was quite touched.
But his rejection of Su Shi's confession was also an answer he had given after careful consideration.
Even though in his heart he felt that Su Shi not only had a good figure, a good personality, was rich and beautiful, but also gave people a motherly warmth, making her the perfect choice for a boyfriend, or even a high-quality candidate to become a wife.
But when Bai Qiu thought of Deng and Xiangzi, she couldn't reciprocate Su Shi's feelings.
"It's all because he's a womanizer," Bai Qiu said with a wry smile, criticizing himself.
Bai Qiu didn't sleep well that night.
The same applies to Motoyo Nagasaki, who lives next door.
The next day was a school day.
At lunchtime in the Haneoka Astronomy Club.
Bai Qiu, Chihaya Aine, and Takamatsu Akari are having lunch together.
"Autumn, please try this."
Gao Songdeng gave Bai Qiu a cute smile, while using chopsticks to pick up a small dumpling and feed it to Bai Qiu.
It's a feeding play.
Since Bai Qiu joined mygo, the original mygo team has been very happy, but the happiest person is Gao Songdeng.
Furthermore, Deng's behavior towards Bai Qiu seems to be becoming more affectionate.
The one who faces all of this most directly is, of course, Chihaya Aine, who is in the same class as the two.
Chihaya Aine stared blankly at the lamp's actions, her mouth slightly open, and many thoughts began to form in her mind.
What kind of affection does Tomorin have for Qiuqiu?
Is it a kind of dependence like that of Rakuna-chan? Or is it the kind of affection between a man and a woman?
If she and Qiuqiu get together someday, Tomorin will probably be very sad.
Sighing, Aine puffed out her cheeks as she thought of this.
This is also why she hasn't dared to launch an attack recently.
For now, let's maintain this balance...
After adjusting her mindset, Chihaya Aine looked at Shiraaki with a subtle expression, ready to see how he would respond.
Fortunately, Bai Qiu seemed to sense Aine's gaze.
His response did not disappoint Aine.
"Thank you, lamp. Please put it in the box."
Bai Qiu looked at Gao Songdeng and said with a smile.
Ultimately, these are chopsticks that a lamp had used.
Although he didn't care about the lamp, he still had to consider it.
Gao Songdeng nodded obediently, but felt a little regretful that he couldn't feed Bai Qiu by hand.
"Qiuqiu, did you not sleep well last night?"
Seeing Bai Qiu's performance, Ai Yin smiled with satisfaction. After noticing the dark circles under Bai Qiu's eyes, she asked her a question out of curiosity.
Did something happen between him and Toyokawa Shoko?
Damn it, there are so many competitors!
Aine, whose intelligence was limited, was unaware of Xiangzi's move, and Bai Qiu also made an exception to explain this.
However, in the last two days, Xiangzi seems to be avoiding him.
She's probably still shy.
Upon hearing this, Gao Songdeng put down his chopsticks and looked at Bai Qiu with concern.
"Yeah, I had a bit of trouble sleeping last night."
Bai Qiu nodded slightly.
How could you tell that?
Although he was the one who refused, he still couldn't sleep last night because he was thinking about Su Shi.
It's important to know that when people can't sleep, they tend to overthink.
This led Bai Qiu to come up with a bold idea.
However, Bai Qiu also knew that this bold idea was not entirely due to insomnia.
Of course, he doesn't dare to say it out loud yet.
