Can Lixi look at me alone?

But the way she kept crying and clinging to Xiao Xiang in the coffee shop that day made him feel like he was being a nuisance.

Perhaps in the future, Xiao Xiang will talk to her more.

After replenishing her energy, Chu Hua continued practicing her idol skills.

Having decided not to let Mu cook rice anymore, Jieyue is cleaning the rice cooker.

In a sense, Xiao Mu is truly a culinary genius.

Compared to Xiang...

Why is it Xiang, and not Xiao Xiang?

Did I used to have a good relationship with that guy? How come... I subconsciously used that term of address?

Realizing she was overthinking things, Jieyue put down the cleaned rice cooker.

Mu, who was hanging her head and felt she had done something wrong, was hugged and comforted for a while.

Love you guys

Volume 1 Crychic! : Chapter 113 Saki: I'm here to drop out of school

What should we do about Moon Forest?

I'll take a long leave first; tomorrow's a day off. Su Shi He Mu should both be out... which will make things easier.

Okay, that's settled. I need to take care of my student registration tomorrow; I need to get a scholarship from Yuqiu High School.

Ah, self-study is too inefficient; it takes too much time.

Every day is just work, study, and sleep. This kind of life... is really painful.

Mutsuki, who had told the housekeeper she would be staying at Yuzuki's house tonight to take care of Yuzuki, stuck to her back.

"Xiao Mu...?"

The pink-haired girl yawned and turned around.

Mu pulled her into his arms, intending to use her warm body heat to get a good night's sleep.

"Has Yuzuki thought about high school?"

high school?

Yuzuki gently rubbed her temples.

"Not yet...maybe I'll just go to any high school..."

Why would Xiaomu ask this question? It's probably because she wants me to go to the Moon Forest to be with her.

It seems Soyo has been up to some bad things lately...

To confirm this conjecture, Yuzuki patted Mutsuki's head and began to ask questions.

"How has Soyo been treating Xiaomu lately?"

She saw Mu's previously cheerful expression immediately turn gloomy, realizing she had asked a crucial question.

"Somewhat...hypocritical."

She couldn't understand why Su Shi seemed like a different person, trying every day to pry information about Xiang and Jie Yue out of her.

But she didn't like Su Shi like this, and she believed that even if she told her, Yuzuki wouldn't like Su Shi either.

That won't work.

Su Shi is so gentle... she shouldn't be treated like this.

Yuzuki noticed her hesitation and decided not to press the matter. She already knew the answer pretty well…

He placed a kiss on the corner of her lips, then embraced her soft body.

Goodnight, Xiao Mu.

Mu nuzzled against her soft, undulating body.

Goodnight, Jieyue.

……

Hailing will go to Hanasaki River, Xiaomu will go to Moon Forest, Sushi will go to Moon Forest... What about Xiaodeng and that person?

She doesn't know.

Oh right! I almost forgot about Chihaya, who's going to study abroad.

While making a fruit sandwich for Aine, Yuzuki remembered the black hair in her pocket, sighed softly, and continued what she was doing.

She was a little confused about this matter, so she decided to put it aside for now and prepare breakfast for Chihaya first.

Because it was a day off, Mu, who didn't have to go to school, stayed in bed to rest.

The scent of the moon made her feel at ease, and she couldn't help but want to sleep a little longer.

As Yuzuki was about to head out to deliver sandwiches to her neighbor, she peeked through the door and saw her adorable, still-sleepy little Mutsu. So she decided to go to the kitchen and make another breakfast.

Then gently dab a little white cream on Xiao Mu's cute little nose.

Looking at her trembling eyelashes, Yuzuki covered her mouth and chuckled for a while before remembering the manga plots she used to pass the time.

Easily prying open the half-asleep girl's lips, Yuzuki, preparing to wake her, tucked a strand of hair behind her ear to prevent her long hair from interfering with her plans.

Seeing her adorable golden eyes slowly widen, Yuzuki finally released her.

Good morning, Xiao Mu.

Mu, her cheeks and ears flushed red, buried her head under the covers in embarrassment and annoyance.

In order to appease her, Yuzuki had no choice but to let her kiss him back.

"Sweetie, it's time to eat breakfast."

Mu squinted her eyes after taking a bite of her sandwich.

It tastes very sweet.

The sweet taste of cream and strawberries made her happily begin to chew. The blue-haired girl's adorable eating process, swallowing food in small bites, made Yuzuki feel affectionate and hug her tightly.

Okay, I'll go to Moon Forest today and see if I can get my child admitted to a higher school.

Xiao Mu is so cute, she can't accept that Xiao Mu is being bullied by Su Shi.

She was going to Moon Forest to keep Xiao Mu company and secretly give her a surprise.

She made the decision very hastily, and Yuzuki will soon understand why Mutsuki so desperately wanted her to go to the Moon Forest to be with her, but never made such a request.

After a gentle knock on Aine's door and a short wait, Yuzuki was invited into Aine's home.

"Yuzue~ Are you feeling better? What happened yesterday? You really gave me a fright."

Some girls, unsure how to explain, coughed lightly twice and handed the sandwich in their hands to Aine.

"You're almost better now, it was probably just... insomnia?"

How could insomnia possibly be that kind of thing? It looks incredibly worrying!

Ain, who was still fuming, took a big bite of the cream to calm down.

Honestly, if Yuzuki isn't going to tell you, then don't ask.

It's not good to keep asking like this.

"I hope I can get some rest next time I get a proper month's rest. This time it really scared me."

Unaware of how dangerous her actions had been the day before, Yuzuki nodded gently, wiped the red strawberry juice from Aine's lips, and prepared to go home.

"Ahaha... Sorry for troubling Chihiro so much..."

Not intending to let Yuzuki go, Aine tore off half of the food and handed it to her. Unable to refuse, the girl chewed on her own cooking.

"Let's put all the trouble aside for now. Does Yuzuki want to go out with me today?"

Hehe, last time I went out with Yuzuki... I got so many stares!

Are we going out together again this time?

Seeing that Yuzuki was about to refuse, Aine immediately grabbed her arm and started to act coquettishly, puffing out her cheeks at her.

"Yesterday was super tiring... So Yuzuki, you'll have to spend the whole day with me..."

Consider it an apology for making her skip class yesterday.

After hesitating for a moment, Yuzuki ate the last bit of food in her hand.

"Hmm... but I need to go to the Moon Forest first. Chihaya can come with me."

Moon Forest!!

As expected of a young lady... It just so happens that she's always been curious about what the inside of the Moon Forest is like. She can take this opportunity to go inside and have a look around—and then she can tell others about it...

very good!

The two, who directly addressed each other as Yuzuki and Chihaya, made a promise to go out together in a little while.

Looking out the window, wondering if she should take some photos later, Aine saw the luxury car parked in front of Yuzuki's house and patted Yuzuki on the shoulder in surprise.

"Little Yuzuki? You have guests at your house."

After glancing at the confirmed message, Yuzuki picked up her phone and opened Line.

"I have to go now, my ballet teacher is calling me."

Yes, she wasn't mistaken. It was Xiao Mu's family car; she had ridden in it several times before.

"Don't worry, that has nothing to do with us."

Seeing that Yuzuki wasn't going to talk about it, Aine, naturally unwilling to press the matter further, scratched her cheek.

"Okay, Xiao Mu, please be careful."

That's great! We can keep this a secret from Xiao Mu and surprise her later...

Xiangzi, who was also preparing to give Soyo a surprise, was about to take a leave of absence from school. Unable to afford a taxi, he had to take the tram to the Moon Forest. The little octopus sighed.

I hope everything goes well today.

The octopus-catching plan is about to succeed!

Guess what the situation is with Jieyue's parents?

Love you guys

Volume 1 Crychic! Chapter 114 Not Generous!

"Should we take a taxi? Wouldn't that be a bit of a hassle..."

Ai Yin, who hadn't considered the cost of the ride, scratched her cheek. Logically speaking... if two people share a taxi, they should split the fare.

But considering my expenses coming up and at the end of the month... it seems like I'm going to overspend my allowance...

Yuzuki hesitated for a moment before she could say, "It's okay, I'll pay."

Intuition told her she shouldn't say that, that saying it... meant she was putting on a very...

An arrogant attitude... this will worsen Chihaya's relationship with her.

She, Hailing, and Xiaomu don't need to consider these things because they are already members and friends.

But with Chihaya, it's necessary to consider matters of dignity.

No, it shouldn't just be the same with Chihaya, it should be the same with everyone else.

Socializing is such a hassle, but... if this way I can make more friends among members...
