Mygo, you guys seem to be getting a bit heavy-hearted.

“I’ve become this bad kid… all of it, all of it… all of it…” Her voice, surging with emotion, slowly transformed into a delicate accusation, which, along with all her tears, was sent into the mouth of her beloved.

'It's all Yanming's fault...'

Mu closed her eyes again.

But in Yanming's words, the sweetness was tinged with an undeniable saltiness... it was so endearing and heartbreaking.

At this moment, the Ferris wheel they were riding was about to land on the ground. Even if Mu didn't want to accept this reality, time would not stop.

Opening her eyes, she could even see out of the corner of her eye... Xiang was waving at them from below.

So it's time for all of this to come to an end.

Chapter 247 I got bullied again!

"Woo..."

She parted her lips, suppressing all the unnecessary grievances, tidied the stray hairs on her forehead, and finally gazed into Yanming's eyes.

All of this happened in just a few seconds, and then Mu returned to his usual expressionless demeanor.

"That's enough..."

"Is this enough?"

Yanming interrupted Mu's self-deprecating words.

"Xiao Mu... I didn't expect that your problem was the most serious of all."

Yanming still couldn't hold onto Mu, or respond with equal enthusiasm.

That was an irresponsible act, and he is already an adult who needs to be responsible for every decision he makes.

"A lifetime" is a very heavy word; one should not make promises lightly if one cannot keep them.

No matter how much you "like" it, it's not allowed.

Mu harbored an undeniable affection for him; how could he not notice? And how could he remain indifferent to such an endearing girl?

But he was not worthy of accepting this sentiment.

Rather than accepting Mu like a scumbag and then leaving without explanation.

Na Yanming would rather be a bastard and ignore her feelings in order to protect her.

...But it's too late to say all this now.

They are all stuck in a quagmire and cannot easily extricate themselves. Even if no one intends to harm others, someone will inevitably be hurt as a result.

Yanming is very clear about what he needs to do, what he should do, and what is the right thing to do.

In any case, we must first stabilize Mu's emotions and not let her continue like this.

Even if it meant deceiving her, Yanming couldn't stand by and watch her debase her feelings like this anymore.

Yanming reached out and tightly grasped Mu's hand, using this last little bit of time to speak: "Xiao Mu... you know I've always been a slow learner, and my neglect of you during this time was not my intention... please forgive me."

"...Like you, I also have to let go of this feeling...I think I probably like you too."

"I'm not sure if this is love... because I've never tried to love someone from a lover's perspective before... I don't know if I see you as a child who needs care, or if it's some more elusive relationship..."

"...If our relationship is just friendship, I don't want to hurt you, so I can't give you a formal answer."

Yanming took a deep breath, without closing his eyes, but instead summoning the last of his strength and emotion to look directly into the other person's eyes:

"Xiao Mu... no, Mu, please try dating me as lovers."

"...!"

Mu didn't expect...

Didn't expect such a result.

She had already planned to withdraw from the world between the other party and Xiang after that incident, and from then on, she would only appear as an appendage to Xiang, instead of the independent "Wakaba Mutsumi".

Become lovers

She never had such a desire.

But when everything actually went according to plan, Mu was surprisingly calm.

Even she herself was surprised.

There was no excitement, no emotion... not even a surprise.

It's like a dream; it's so unreal that it doesn't feel real at all.

Should I... say yes?

It wasn't a definitive answer, but rather an inquiry.

In the past, if she had simply remained silent, she would have been taken as acquiescing and seemingly accepting the situation without question.

But now, Mu also has things she wants to understand.

If she just accepts it without really understanding it... then she might never understand it in her entire life.

Mu wanted to know what Yanming was thinking at that moment; she wanted to hear it from him himself.

“I will use the next period of time to confirm the true nature of our feelings… At the same time, I hope you can adjust your mindset and put yourself in the position of ‘girlfriend’… Don’t be so humble and demand pleasure from me like this anymore… This twisted relationship is completely wrong.”

"No matter how our final outcome is... please remember these words, even if it's just a little bit of my personal wish..."

"Mu."

"Before you face your feelings, you must first learn how to value yourself... instead of always putting yourself in an insignificant position and saying things like 'this is enough'."

“You are different now. I have always seen your transformation. Every genuine smile of yours is so beautiful to me… But more than that, I hope you can be kinder to yourself, instead of only showing your smile to others.”

"Whether it's crying or laughing, pain or happiness...we are all lonely people, and our understanding of these things is inherently more profound than that of ordinary people."

“I like you… just as you like me, and my feelings for you are no less intense.”

"But compared to my feelings for other people, could you... like me, fall in love with this child, 'Wakaba Mutsumi'?"

As soon as they finished speaking, the Ferris wheel cabin they were riding in finally reached the bottom, and the cabin door automatically opened, exposing the two of them to everyone.

Xiangzi stared wide-eyed at the two people clasping their hands together: "...Xiao Mu? Yan Ming? What's going on with you two...?"

Yanming took Mu's hand and walked out of the facility, saying in a deep voice, "Xiao Xiang, what I'm about to say... please be sure to stay calm after you hear it."

Regarding Mu's matter, the reasons behind it were difficult for Yanming to explain to Xiangzi in front of so many people.

Only when they were the only ones left could he give a reason.

Therefore, it is quite necessary to give Xiangzi a heads-up in advance.

However, Yanming couldn't be sure how effective it would be.

"W-what's going on? Why does the atmosphere seem a little different after riding the Ferris wheel? Um... you two? Xiao Mu, you..." Alarm bells were ringing in Xiangzi's mind.

She had a premonition that she was about to hear something extraordinary from Yanming.

But there seems to be nothing she can do now; she can only watch.

"Here's what happened." Yanming extended his hand, which was clasped together with Xiaomu's, and showed it to her. "Xiaomu and I... just officially decided to start dating."

"...?"

???????

Heh... no!

What did you do?

Xiangzi froze instantly. On the surface, he seemed fine, but in reality, his soul had been lifted to a height higher than a Ferris wheel by Yanming's words.

Chapter 248 Triangle

These words elicited reactions not only from Xiangzi, but also from the others to varying degrees.

Hai Ling didn't understand the meaning behind it, and simply offered her blessings to the two of them: "Well... so that's how you two are? Congratulations."

Because Xiangzi often talked about Yanming beside her, Chu Hua roughly understood how much her childhood friend cared about Yanming.

She glanced at Xiangzi beside her... Sure enough, Xiangzi was stunned like a defeated dog, unable to utter a single word.

...It seems I'll have to comfort Xiao Xiang properly later.

Senior Yanming, you really are guilty of heinous crimes.

However, Chu Hua still offered her blessings to the couple, clapping her hands and smiling, "Congratulations to the two of you."

Miaomeng is probably the one who knows the three of them best, besides Xiangzi and Hemu.

As for Xiangzi and Yanming, she had always regarded them as a couple since their last band. Although neither of them had ever admitted it, their composure and tacit understanding in their words and actions were enough to show that their relationship was by no means simple.

So when she saw this scene, Miaomeng felt a bit conflicted.

It's like the two people I witnessed didn't end up together; instead, one of them got together with another of my friends.

This feeling is strange.

It was as if she inexplicably felt a connection with Xiangzi.

However, she mostly had stomach pains, while Xiangzi's pain was probably much more severe.

"Oh my... Yanming, kissing you... You always manage to do things that surprise me..."

Imagining Xiangzi pounding the ground and crying, even the hard-hearted Teacher Da Miao couldn't help but feel sympathy.

However, compared to the heartbreak of his own prison cell

Miaomeng was still more concerned about Yanming's situation.

She knew that Yanming wouldn't change his feelings in such a short time. Her understanding of Yanming was that he was a kind-hearted person who would always step up to help anyone in need.

Such a person, who would help others even at his own expense, would never be the kind of scoundrel who would casually walk away after toying with Xiangzi's feelings.

Something must have happened that she doesn't know about.

'We need to tell Xiangqin about this suspicion.'

Perhaps out of a desire not to see the two she had witnessed part ways on bad terms, Miao Meng decided not to stand idly by this time. At least she would do what she could, even without any personal gain.

"Um, Xiangqin..."

With a big smile on his face, Xiangzi looked at Yanming and Mu and said with a smile, "Congratulations, Mu... That's great! Your feelings have finally been accepted by this blockhead Yanming."

Holy crap! That's it!

Xiangqin has gone crazy!

What will happen to their band?

What will their band become (choking up)...?

Just as Miaomeng was considering whether to run away, Xiangzi noticed her.

"...Yutenji, what's with that expression? You're not thinking of running away, are you?"

"How could this be! I was just thinking about something else... Wait, Xiangqin, are you... are you alright?"

Xiangzi glared at her: "What could be wrong with me? Why are you saying such strange things? Have you gone crazy from playing the drums?"

broken!

This is really bad!

Meow Dream Guess

It is highly likely that Xiangzi was overwhelmed with grief, and his brain automatically blocked out this memory to protect himself from further harm.

Poor Xiangqin...

"It's okay." Miao Meng showed a calm expression, gave a thumbs up with one hand, and kept patting Xiangzi's shoulder with the other. "Pain is terrible, but it will pass. Everything will be alright. I'm here with you."

"?"

Not

Is she sick?

What kind of nonsense is this person thinking about all day?
