"There's no need to let Sawamura know. This is a secret between Xiaohui and me."
Kato Megumi nodded, and the corners of her mouth curved slightly between closing and opening her eyes, with a hint of ambiguous meaning.
"Senior is so greedy~~"
"Hmm?" Bai Ye asked in confusion.
"Actually, the other side is holding Kasumigaoka-senpai, right?"
Bai Ye was embarrassed for a moment, and the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously.
Bai Ye was a little surprised that Kato Megumi would take the initiative to reveal the truth, but his attention was attracted by Kato Megumi's previous words.
"Xiaohui said I was greedy, but why do I feel like she meant something else?"
"The reasons given should be able to dispel Xiaohui's doubts."
"It must be my misunderstanding..."
Putting this matter aside for the moment, Bai Ye nodded cautiously in response to the question raised by Kato Keigang.
Shiyu and Kato Megumi both knew that they liked Bai Ye, and they admitted it. Bai Ye didn't think it was a big problem and just regarded it as a way to ease the relationship.
Taking this opportunity, he pulled Kato Megumi towards him, their bodies pressed against each other, and the girl's fragrance wafting into his nose became more obvious.
Kato Megumi didn't say anything else. She also leaned on Bai Ye's shoulder, staring at her red bracelet in a daze.
Bai Ye didn't dare to speak anymore. He wanted to look straight ahead and pretend that it was none of his business, but he felt it was not a good idea. So his eyes had to wander between Kato Megumi and Shiyu's faces.
"This delicate balance... is it a preview of being embraced by both sides?"

There are still 3 days before I can go home... I am so tired typing on my phone in the hotel...
Chapter 240 There are always unexpected signs before big events happen
"We're here, everyone get off the bus."
The car stopped at a drop-off point not far from the barbecue restaurant. A group of girls followed Bai Ye out of the car and saw from afar that the barbecue restaurant was bustling with people and very lively.
Shiyu let go of Bai Ye's hand.
There were a lot of people around, and she didn't want to be seen by nosy people outside, being so close to Bai Ye, at least not before graduation.
But she did not leave Bai Ye's side, and their shoulders remained at a distance.
Kato Megumi no longer held Bai Ye's arm, and walked beside Bai Ye just like Shiyu.
Bai Ye suddenly felt like a prisoner exiled three thousand miles away in ancient times, while Kato Megumi and Shiyu were like soldiers holding two big red flower sticks and with iron chains and handcuffs around their waists, guarding against anyone who tried to approach.
He glanced to the sides and saw that the two girls were staring straight ahead, as if they were not paying any attention to him at all.
"Kato-san, Kasumigaoka-san, don't you feel hot being so close?"
"Senior, we're at the barbecue restaurant."
"Xiaobai-kun, look, is that Hyodou-san?"
The topic was ignored...
Bai Ye said that there was no other way. If Kato Megumi and Shiwa joined forces, they would be invincible.
……
The members of Icy Tail arrived at the Yuanye BBQ restaurant early and are now distributing flyers in front of the store to make final warm-ups for the event.
Although the contract stated that they only had to perform, they did not want to waste this rare opportunity, so they asked Mr. Yuanye to stand guard and try their best to show passers-by the charm of Icy Tail.
Himekawa Tokino had sharp eyes and immediately found Bai Ye's figure in the crowd. He excitedly patted the girl next to him.
"Michiru, do you think that's Mr. Agent?!"
"It seems so." Hyodo Michiru wiped the sweat from her forehead, remembering Bai Ye's instructions yesterday, "Shi Xiao, Rui Zhijia, Lan Zi, Xiao classmate said not to call him 'agent' in front of others yet. Did you remember?"
"I know."
Although they didn't know the reason, the members of Icy Tail still agreed.
"Michiru Michiru, you are in danger!" Himekawa Tokino exclaimed.
"What's wrong with me?"
"There are a lot of girls around Mr. Agent. Not only is there the girl with the bob haircut I saw in the ice room last time, but there's also a girl with long straight black hair and a girl with blonde hair and twintails. They're all very delicate and beautiful!"
"What are you talking about, Xiao?" Hyodo Michiru was speechless. "Those guys are all friends from the club. Their relationship with Xiao is not what you think."
"No matter what, Michiru, you have to do your best!"
The members of Icy Tail were whispering among themselves, and at this time Bai Ye had already arrived at the door of the store.
After quietly greeting the members of Icy Tail with his eyes, Bai Ye turned to look at Michiru Hyodo.
At this moment, Michiru Hyodo was wearing a purple short-sleeved shirt and skirt, showing the girl's youth and vitality. Coupled with the hanging wireless headphones on her ears, her identity was clear at a glance.
"Is this Hyodou-san's performance costume?"
"Yes, hello everyone!" After greeting Shiyu and the others one by one, Hyodo Michiru turned around and struck a pose. "Ms. Xiao, and everyone else, what do you think of our costumes? We spent half a month's wages from part-time jobs to have them custom-made just for our first commercial performance."
"Very beautiful." Shiyu spoke first, "It fits the temperament of Hyodo-san very well."
"That's right, his personality is very similar to Hyodo-san's, and his hair color also matches well." Kato Megumi then said.
"Yeah," Eriri nodded in agreement, closing the menu and walking forward. "Hyoudou-san, when does the show start?"
"It'll be soon." Hyodo Michiru pointed to the side, "It'll start at 6: sharp."
Only then did Eriri notice that there were two posters next to them, one was for the barbecue restaurant's 5th anniversary celebration, and the other was a promotional poster for Icy Tail's first performance.
"Hyoudou-san, your poster..." Eriri pinched her chin, her eyes sharp. "I'm sorry, but I think the quality of the poster is a little disappointing."
"Ahaha..." Hyodo Michiru looked behind her, her face slightly embarrassed. "Because the posters are free. I asked a professional poster maker, but they're too expensive. If I make the posters, I won't have money for the costumes."
"I see." Eriri nodded thoughtfully. "If you want to make posters in the future, Hyodo-san, you can ask me for a lower price. Don't ask this person anymore. Even if I pay him, his skills aren't that good."
"Uh...this..."
Seeing Hyodo Michiru hesitating, Eriri looked up curiously, only to see her smiling awkwardly but politely. At the same time, she felt a long-suppressed sinister laugh coming from behind her.
"Sawamura-kun... Sawamura-kun..."
Bai Ye suddenly exploded and used the secret electric dragon drill to drill hard into Ying Lili's temple.
"You seem quite dissatisfied with my two days and one night of hard work. How about I give you a chance to think more creatively?!"
“Ah—it hurts, it hurts—! Help!!”
Ying Lili's eyes were filled with tears. She covered her head pitifully, her golden ponytails dancing in the air, and she stared at Bai Ye fiercely.
"The character of the senior is much worse than this poster. He actually bullies girls. He is beyond redemption. He should be killed by a million alpaca!!"
Bai Ye crossed his arms and looked at her with an unpleasant expression.
"This is the first time I've seen a villain complain first."
Seeing that Eriri was about to use her strategic-level little tiger fangs to counterattack, Kato Megumi stepped forward to stop the two.
"Sawamura-kun, if you want to bite me, please wait until we get home. There are a lot of people watching us, and I am one of them too. Please don't bully girls too much, or it will make the headlines in the newspapers, and my reputation as a gentleman will be tarnished."
"That's right, that's right!" Eriri hid behind Kato Megumi, sneering as if she was bullying others.
Bai Ye was even more speechless.
Why did Kato Megumi speak up for Eriri?
What do you mean by "Eriri can come home and bite me, so I can't bully Eriri?" I also want to apply to go home and bully Eriri! !
On this side, Shiyu grabbed Eriri's wrist.
"Okay, stop standing in front of other people's stores and block the way. Go inside and find a seat."
At the same time, she sensed something else from Eriri's words and went into the barbecue restaurant with Eriri, saying over and over again:
"Sawamura-kun, are you short of money?"
"Huh?!" Eriri was stunned, and her twintails jumped in response, "Kasumigaoka, how did you know?!"
This useless lady...
"What's going on? I've never heard of you being short of money. You bought such an expensive notebook and tablet without blinking an eye."
"That's why..."
Eriri scratched her face, her expression showing a complex mix of anger, confusion, speechlessness, and entanglement.
"My mom paid for the graphics tablet, and it was working perfectly fine. But now she's suddenly asking me to pay her back. If I don't, she's going to do something horrible to me!!"

I was so tired from walking yesterday that I couldn't get up when I got back to the hotel.
I can go home tomorrow, crying...
I went home and worked hard to update. Why did my family take me out to play? I still can’t figure it out...
Chapter 241: It’s like the uncomfortable feeling of being offered a pillow but not being able to use it immediately when you’re sleepy
Seeing Shiyu and Eriri go in, Bai Ye said to the Icy tail members who were still working hard to warm up for the event:
"Then we'll go in too. Good luck to everyone. I'm looking forward to your wonderful performances."
"Thank you, Xiao."
"Yes, it's... ahem, Mr. Xiao."
Himekawa Tokino made a slip of the tongue, coughed a few times, and hurriedly walked away in small steps.
"Scripture?" Kato turned his head and asked in a puzzled tone.
"It's nothing, Kato-kun." Bai Ye glanced at Himekawa Tokino weakly.
He didn't know whether the other party did it accidentally or on purpose, so he could only choose to skip the topic.
"Let's go in. Kasumigaoka-san and Sawamura-san have been waiting for a long time."
"Uh-huh."
The barbecue restaurant was bustling with people, just as lively as the street, but with an even more lively and lively atmosphere.
Bai Ye took everyone to the reserved seat, which was one of the best places to watch the show.
"Everyone can order whatever you want to eat. There are a lot of people here today, so it may take some time for the food to be served. Now is the perfect time to order."
Ying Lili had anticipated this situation from the beginning, so she chose what she wanted to eat in advance.
"Senior, I've ordered everything. That's all."
"Okay!"
Bai Ye wrote down everyone's choices on the menu and then handed it to the waiter.
"Is it okay with this meal being AA, Kato-san?"
"It's just a barbecue, I'm fine, senior."
"Hey - wait!" Ying Lili raised her hand and called for a stop. Her eyes showed unconcealed surprise and a hint of panic, with even a trace of cold sweat seeping out of her forehead.
"Don't you have an invitation? Why are you splitting the bill?"
“There is an invitation.”
Bai Ye took out the invitation, but before he could hand it over, Ying Lili snatched it away.
"Boss Yuanye originally planned to invite only me, so the share is 5000 yen. I've already let Boss Yuanye take four seats. I can't let him invite all of us."
"I can't spend 5000 yuan on a meal by myself, so I'll split the 5000 yuan into the shared pool and then split the bill when we pay. Is that okay with everyone?"
"I have no objection." Shiyu spread her hands and looked at Eriri's reaction with interest.
Ying Lili had nothing to say. Bai Ye had already done his best by contributing 5000 for the common area, and the AA system was also a very fair approach. She couldn't say anything to express her embarrassment.
After being tricked by her mother, she was really short of money.
"No choice, I'll just go on a diet today. I'll go back to Bai Ye's house and grab some snacks to make up for it."
