In practice, I can issue tasks to my master.

But that's what he wanted to see.

He absolutely had to capture the iconic scene of pressing handprints, because it was perfect for issuing missions.

As for Wang Meiyu, all he can say is sorry.

He will definitely make it up to her in the future for the hardships she suffered with Kikyo Kushida.

Please read on! Please read on!

Volume 1: Chapter 18, Beware of Kikyo Kushida

"Um... Nangong, could you do me a favor?"

Kikyo Kushida chose to skip this awkward topic, but thought she should check the system shop to see if she could get a skill that made her fluent in Chinese.

Otherwise, if Nangong Cheng subtly slanders you, you'll not only fail to understand but also have to force a smile, which would make you look like a clown.

"Please tell me, Kushida-san. If it's within my ability, I will definitely help you."

Guess what you're trying to say in 0 seconds.

But Nangong Cheng still went along with the performance.

"Well...didn't we have everyone introduce themselves before the class meeting on the first day of school?"

"I said I hoped to become friends with everyone, but I've never been able to have a proper conversation with Horikita-san..."

Kikyo Kushida blinked in a cute way, then revealed a hint of grievance.

"So I noticed that you and Horikita are deskmates, and I just saw you two chatting for a bit. I was wondering if I could ask you to invite her to meet me... like that."

Nangong Cheng nodded.

Just as Kikyo Kushida was about to put on a smile, Makoto Nangong suddenly shook his head.

He said this—

"Being able to talk to someone doesn't mean you have a good relationship. I think you understand that, right, Kushida-kun?"

"Besides, given your social circle, Mr. Kushida, haven't you heard about the conflict between me and Horikita at the school gate on the first day of school?"

"So I'm afraid I can't help you with this."

Nangong Cheng shrugged helplessly, adopting a posture of wanting to help but being powerless.

"I see..."

Kikyo Kushida forced a smile.

She didn't just hear about it; she actually witnessed it firsthand.

After all, they got off the same car.

But for some reason, she always felt that Nangong Cheng's nodding gesture was deliberately playing a trick on her.

Unfortunately, there is no evidence.

"Sorry, I was just assuming things."

"It's okay, I understand how you feel."

Nangong Cheng waved his hand, then turned his gaze to Wang Meiyu, who was listening from the side.

"When I heard Wang introduce herself as being from China, I felt the same way you did, Kushida. I wanted to become her a friend with whom I could talk about anything."

"But these things can't be forced, and besides, I think Wang is a bit introverted and I'm afraid I'll scare her."

Wang Meiyu blushed and shook her head after hearing this.

"If Nangong had said back then that you were also from China... we would have been friends long ago."

"In that case, shall we add each other as friends?"

"Ok!"

Kikyo Kushida watched as the two people in front of her suddenly exchanged contact information, as if she were an outsider.

Not...you?

He just said he wouldn't neglect her, didn't he?

"Sorry, Kushida-san, I have an urgent matter to attend to and have to leave for a bit. Let's get together again next time."

"……it is good."

What else could Kikyo Kushida say but watch as Makoto Nangong hurriedly left until he disappeared from her sight?

Then, out of the corner of her eye, she noticed that Wang Meiyu's expression was a little strange.

"Miyu-chan?"

"Ah! Kushida-san, sorry, I was a little distracted."

Wang Meiyu quickly put away her phone.

But beneath the now-off screen, a message from Nangong Cheng, written in English alphabetic spelling, was displayed—

Beware of Kushida bellflower.

...

...

the other side.

Nangong Cheng had no idea what kind of crazy tricks Kushida Kikyo had come up with this time; all he knew was that something white and beautiful had appeared on his phone.

[Sakura-san, what's wrong with you...?]

Yes, Nangong Cheng's phone screen is displaying a selfie taken by Sakura Airi.

It's not Sakura Airi form, but Shizuku form.

Those twin ponytails really got his DNA working.

And even though it's wrapped up very tightly, it still looks very appetizing.

[I'm sorry... I want to buy a new outfit, but I'm having trouble choosing, so... I wanted Nangong to help me see which one suits me better...]

Did I... bother you?

"Or... should I ask again later?"

Through the words, Nangong Cheng seemed to see Sakura Airi's tense face.

Look how scared the child is.

He deserves to die!

Since things have come to this, all we can do is try to make amends in the future.

[I didn't mean to disturb you, I was just a little surprised.]

[Actually, I don't know much about girls' clothes... but based on my personal taste, I think these clothes suit Sakura-san quite well.]

[After all, I never expected Sakura-san to be so beautiful and cute with her glasses off and her new hairstyle. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I probably wouldn't have believed it, right?]

The message was marked as read the moment it was sent.

But no reply came for a long time.

Nangong Cheng was not surprised by this situation.

Because Sakura Airi's personality, while not exactly cowardly, could certainly be described as a born pushover.

Goto Ichiri Minoru said that.

It's normal to experience a brain overload reaction when someone praises you.

So Nangong Cheng wasn't in a hurry at all, and patiently waited for Sakura Airi's reply as he walked towards the cafeteria.

Sorry to have kept Nangong waiting...

This is the first time... I've ever been told I'm pretty and cute by someone my age, so I'm a little excited...

Since Nangong said they all suit me well, I'm thinking of buying them all, but I also want to buy a digital camera, so my budget is only for one item...

[Could you help me choose one, Nangong?]

If you say it like that, he won't be sleepy anymore.

Nangong Cheng instinctively wanted to choose the backless sweater that best accentuated the girl's enviable figure, but fortunately, his big head controlled his small head.

It's fine if the clothes are only bought for him to wear, but he won't be happy if he wears them out in public.

【Should I choose? But I don't know your situation, Sakura-san... Do you want to buy it to wear in the dorm or to wear out on your days off?】

This time, the reply came very quickly.

[...I wore it in the dorm.]

Because I don't really like going out... so if I really have to go out... I'll probably still wear my school uniform.

Nangong Cheng raised an eyebrow slightly.

Since he'd already hinted at it this much, he decided to drop the pretense.

Then let's choose that white backless sweater.

However, summer isn't far off, and I'll probably have to buy new clothes for the new season then.

The message went silent again after being marked as read.

Nangong Cheng wasn't in a hurry. He went to the window, ordered a deluxe set meal, and found a quiet corner to sit down.

[Images][Images][Images]

[Thanks to Nangong for the help. These are some photos I asked the cashier to take when I was paying the bill.]

Regarding the seasonal change you mentioned, I'd like to ask you, Nangong, for your advice... is that alright?

Yes, of course you can.

Please send out more; children love to see them.

Just as Nangong Cheng was about to reply, Sakura Airi sent another message.

So, compared to the me in the classroom, Nangong probably prefers the me now, right?

Perhaps because of the screen, Sakura Airi became increasingly bold.

But Nangong Cheng doesn't dislike this.

Because he would make the girl's appearance, from now on, exclusively his.

So he promptly typed in his reply.

[Actually, I really want to say that I like all of Sakura-san... but I can't deny that the current Sakura-san is indeed more charming.]

...

...

At this moment, inside the clothing store's fitting room.

[Task Completed]

[Mission Reward: Host receives 500 points]

After seeing Makoto Nanamiya's reply, Sakura Airi, in her Shizuku form, lowered her head and pressed her phone against her ample chest.

The voice sounded muffled.

"Thanks……"

I've been updating both day and night for the past few days, but I'll gradually switch to updating only at night in the future.

Volume 1: 19. Female Suspension Technology Should Be Put on the Agenda

Nangong Cheng knew very well what he was doing.

Isn't that just being a jerk?
