I play wind instruments in Kansai.

Hitomi Shiraishi gently stroked her cherry-white fingernails with her fingertips, shook her head, and said:

“Exclusive”.

Sumire Amamiya's throat trembled slightly. She suspected that the girl might have a mental illness, as she didn't speak completely.

"Alright, of course I'm not saying that Miyamine-kun is bad, but how should I put it, it's human nature to have some feelings towards people of the same rank, but it's good to be able to work with you."

Her tone was extremely light, and Gong Lingwang didn't feel that she was making things difficult for him.

"Okay, I'll leave the oboe to you."

"I'm so glad you said that."

Sumire Amamiya seemed to be talking about something happy, and said with a smile,

"I heard that the girl in my voice range gets along well with everyone, so I shouldn't be targeted, right?"

"How could this be!"

Erika Toda couldn't wait to show her the demeanor of an upperclassman in front of her.

"That kind of thing will absolutely not happen. I wouldn't have dared to make that guarantee before, but it definitely won't happen now."

"Really? If I get warned, Toda-senpai can protect me?"

"Of course!" Erika Toda gave her assurance without even thinking.

"That's great."

Sumire Amamiya flashed an impeccably radiant smile.

"This way I can rest assured within the department."

She knew she had a very beautiful face, Gong Lingwang thought, to the point that every word and action she took was calculated.

Erika Toda wore a "pocky face" expression, looking very pleased with herself.

When she was a junior in college, she witnessed many unfair things happening around her, but because of her "rank," she couldn't say anything.

But now, even though she's a second-year student, she's already the leader of the flute section!

Becoming a group leader means that she has voting rights within the department, and her words carry the same weight as those of other group leaders!

So this is power!

The feeling of being in control is just so wonderful!

"Then I'll be going now."

Sumire Amamiya turned to leave, and Erika Toda waved goodbye with a grin.

After the younger student left, she swayed happily and said:

"That's so nice, she's really cute, isn't she?"

Gongling Wang met her gaze; it seemed he needed to give an answer himself.

"It's alright, I don't like people who are too thin."

"Hmm, what about me?"

The girl's eyelashes trembled slightly, like the delicate ripples created by butterfly wings skimming across the water.

The two looked at Shiraishi Hitomi almost simultaneously. She was like a doll carefully placed on a chair, but now she spoke.

The voice was very faint, and it even sounded somewhat aggrieved.

Gong Lingwang looked surprised, his chest slightly hot, and after a long while, he finally spoke:

"Shiraishi-kun is very beautiful, just right."

Isn't that a bit much? Is it really okay to say these things in front of a senior student?

"Just right..."

Hitomi Shiraishi slumped her shoulders, looking rather unhappy.

Gong Lingwang felt somewhat wronged, but he couldn't lie.

After all, with outstanding figures like Daidoji and Tanihana-senpai in the club, he couldn't very well say he was "plump" in terms of physique.

Erika Toda's lips parted and closed, and after hesitating for a long time, she asked, her face flushed:

"Do I...do I need to ask too?"

"I'll pass on Toda-senpai..."

"Wait! What is this?"

Driven by a competitive spirit, Erika Toda suddenly became a little anxious. No matter how you look at it, she was more voluptuous than Shiraishi-senpai!

“What I mean is, I don’t want to discuss this,” Miyamune said, raising her hand.

"Hmph—!" Erika Toda puffed out her cheeks, her mouth full of air.

"......"

What does "humph" mean?

"Senior, where did Amamiya-san come from?" Miyamine asked.

"snort--!"

Erika Toda didn't reply. She just kept a straight face, crossed her arms in front of her chest, and clasped her fingers around her opposite elbows.

Seeing her childlike appearance, Shiraishi Hitomi's lips curled up slightly, and a smile appeared on her beautiful face.

Gong Lingwang was quite annoyed; they were already senior students, yet they were still acting like children.

"...Senior is very voluptuous."

"Mmm~~~!"

Erika Toda nodded in agreement after receiving his praise, which seemed quite childish to the two of them.

"So, where did she come from?"

Erika Toda simply shook her head:

"I have absolutely no idea."

"Hurry back to the school building, you'll be late for the morning meeting."

Why is he trying to win over the female senior here?

“I’ll go too.” Shiraishi Hitomi stood up.

They were in the same class, so going back together wouldn't attract Toda's attention.

As she entered the corridor, a draft swept through, causing the girl's skirt to cling to her thighs, highlighting the distinct outline of her triangle area.

"The wind is so strong."

"Ah."

The draft disappeared in less than three seconds, and Shiraishi Hitomi gently pulled the fabric that was pressed against her skin away.

"How are the pajamas?" she asked.

The sound that reached his ears was as faint as a whisper. Gong Lingwang smiled and said:

"She probably likes it, but she just doesn't want to say it."

The girl's thin lips formed the arc of a crescent moon:

"She treated me the same way, taking good care of me, but she didn't say it."

"Isn't that great?" Miyamine Nozomi said with a smile.

"But she doesn't treat me that way anymore."

"She has a soft heart, she's just a bit stubborn." Gong Lingwang deeply understands this from the softness of Liu Mujie Deng.

Shiraishi Hitomi's throat moved, her hair falling quietly over her slender shoulders:

"Were all the things you said back then true? They made me feel needed."

"What?" Gongling Wang was taken aback.

"Kirishima has given up on me, and Kiyotomi is going to give up on me too. You won't give up on me, right?"

Her voice, like water, flowed into Gong Lingwang's ears and permeated his mind.

Gong Lingwang sensed something was wrong, and his heart suddenly started racing.

What does it mean?

Although he did say such things to Shiraishi Hitomi back then, he didn't take them to heart.

But Gong Lingwang didn't expect that she seemed to be serious.

"How could they give up on you? Shiraishi-kun has a talent that others don't have. It's others who need you more."

"Well......"

Shiraishi Hitomi's eyelashes fluttered, then she looked up at him, a smile playing on her lips, and said...

"I know these things are hard to figure out, but take your time to think them over and don't make things difficult for yourself."

"..."

"After all, it's a lifelong commitment."

The pure smile on her face vanished without a trace, as if her expression was merely a matter of managing objects, something that could be replaced at any time.

"Uh......"

Gong Lingwang's breathing gradually slowed down, and he realized something.

Those were the flirtatious words she often said to Yuuki Yanagi, but to Hitomi Shiraishi, they became a heavy reality.

◇

The last class in the morning was Hayami Tenma's class.

Wearing high heels, she appeared tall and graceful, her rounded hips creating a perfect curve in her bodycon skirt. As she passed by Gong Lingwang, a refreshing perfume scent wafted from her.

Gong Lingwang twirled a mechanical pencil in his hand. Today's lesson was Lu Xun's "My Old Home," a work by this foreign author that dominated the adolescence of many.

As a result, for a period of time during their studies, the students often addressed each other as "Master".

Watching Hayami Tenma Sei's vivid and engaging presentation on stage, Miyamine Nozomi suddenly remembered the skill she had previously redeemed, which was said to allow for telepathic communication, essentially like having an internal voice channel.

He hasn't tried it yet.

Traditional Chinese culture classes are usually boring, so Gong Lingwang thought he'd give it a try here and see if it worked.

[Use item: Heavenly Hearing]

【Yes】

[Bound Object]

Gongling Wang's mind stirred, and Hayami Tenma Sei's name was reflected on it.

Is this the original audio? It can be modified at any time.

Try using the original audio first.

[Already bound to: Hayami Tenma Hoshi]

Is that all?

Miyamine Nozomi rested her chin on her hand, watching Hayami Tenma Sei explain the lesson plan on the stage. She seemed to have already entered a teaching state, with her legs crossed.

How should I speak?

Miyamine Nozomi frowned slightly, thinking about chatting with Hayami Tenma Sei—

"Supervisor Hayami?"

At this moment, Hayami Tenma Sei raised his head, his gaze falling directly on Miyamine Nozomi, and said:

"what happened?"

"Hmm?" Gongling Wang paused for a moment.

The other students in the classroom also turned their gazes toward him, and even Liu Mujie Deng frowned and turned to look at him.
