To be honest, the other party's words did surprise Bai Ye.
"How long have Senior Xiao and Senior Kasumigaoka been together? He's able to find a girlfriend who's on the school beauty list. How many people want to talk to Senior Kasumigaoka but can't? It's truly enviable."
As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person, even if the way he speaks is unpleasant.
Although Shiyu is a beautiful girl who is listed on the school beauty list, Bai Ye knows that she is never proud of it, because she has real strength and is not just for show. The fame brought to her by the school beauty list brings her far less benefits than the troubles it brings her.
When Iori Hatajima suddenly brought up the school beauty list, Bai Ye really frowned.
Do you claim to be capable enough? Do you find a gap and take advantage of it?
Arrogance and lack of humility are one thing, but there is also the feeling that Shiyu is weak and easy to seduce, which is different from the teasing Irriri just now.
Love involves self-esteem and is one of the greatest emotions of our time. It is not something to show off oneself and should never be used in conversations with outsiders.
Bai Ye looked up and saw that the "beautiful girl" prefix for Kasumi Shiko on the promotional banner of the Fuzugawa Bunko had disappeared, and was replaced by "Look forward to it!"
"Just lucky. Shiyu has quite the personality."
Iori Hashima picked up a novel and pretended to be talking to himself:
"If I could have a girlfriend as beautiful and hardworking as Kasumigaoka-san, I would cherish her and never let her suffer any injustice. Sigh...it's so hard to meet the girl you like."
"Yes."
Bai Ye responded perfunctorily, but his thoughts about the other person gradually became clearer.
"Does this mean that you should be content with Shiyu and not be greedy?"
He couldn't help but snort and laugh.
The ancient emperors had three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines, and three thousand beauties in their harems. Who would dare to tell him not to be greedy?
It is not a sin to have something, but it is a sin to not deserve it.
"Hajima Iori-san is also a fan of Shiwa?"
"When I first heard it was a novel written by a beautiful school girl, I was very interested. Then I gradually fell in love with it. Is it the same for Senior Xiao?"
"Me?" Bai Ye laughed at himself.
It is also a joke for Iori Hatajima, who has always wanted to use the fact that Shiyu had a good impression of Aki Tomoya from the beginning as an excuse to stand on the moral high ground and put himself in a weak position of "planning to steal someone's love".
"I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. Although I knew that Kasumi Shiko-sensei was Shiyu from the beginning, I always had a 'distance love' for her between fans. The fact that we were able to meet later must have been fate."
"Hajima Iori felt the same way, suddenly the distance between us shortened, and then I realized I fell in love."
Iori Hajima paused and nodded slightly.
Love, something that is hard to explain, is the best shield.
If I deny what Senior Xiao said, then my liking for Michiru Hyodo would be without reason, right?
After this battle, he also realized that Bai Ye was not easy to deal with. He was not a naive little boy. He felt like a hot and sticky piece of candy.
Difficult to deal with, long to pull, extremely tough.
"Senior Xiao, I'm leaving first. Thank you very much for taking care of Chu Hai."
"It's a small matter. It's not easy to find a suitable painter..." Bai Ye sighed.
The other party still did not let go of the idea of putting him in a disadvantageous position, even when saying goodbye.
After waving goodbye and watching Iori Hatima leave, Bai Ye narrowed his eyes, then patted his slightly hot head, gradually calmed down, and picked up the novel again.
"It's so annoying. My good mood has been ruined..."
. . . . . .
On the other side, Shiyu and Kato Megumi.
The two girls visited the comic convention together, like a pair of close best friends, but also like a pair of curious babies. Once they saw something interesting, they would pull each other to enjoy it together.
Shiyu lowered her sunglasses, very satisfied that no one was following her.
"After shopping with Kato-san, I always feel that the possibility of being exposed is lower and I get less attention. Is it my illusion?"
"Is the senior also talking about my presence?"
"Also?" Shiyu put on her sunglasses and knew who the other person was talking about without thinking.
"I'm saying that Kato-san is taking the attention away from me. You should have confidence in yourself. You're also a naturally beautiful girl, but why don't you like to smile?"
Kato Megumi closed her eyes.
"Wouldn't it be strange to smile if you didn't encounter anything happy?"
"Aren't you happy shopping with me?"
Kato Megumi was not frightened and her expression did not change at all.
"As for the smile, I'm always there, but it's just the corners of my mouth that won't listen to me. Does this have anything to do with my sense of existence?"
Seeing that the topic was brought back to "sense of existence", Shiyu shrugged helplessly.
Unless necessary, she would not repeatedly tease the other person about things that matter to her, regardless of their pros and cons.
"Look, there seems to be something interesting."
Shiyu looked up and found that the store the other person walked into was the jewelry store she and Xiaobaijun visited at noon.
Kato Megumi picked up a pendant and looked at it in her palm, then handed it to Shiyu.
"It's a kitten pendant. It's quite cute. What do you think, Senior?"
A little white cat pendant, its snow-white fur is spotless, its posture is like that of a confident and graceful lady, and its eyes reveal a hint of pride.
"Show me, do you think it looks like me?"
"A little bit." Kato Megumi nodded.
Shiyu took the little white cat pendant, which was the same one she had admired before.
"I don't think a white cat suits me. Look at my outfit, every part of it is white. Don't you think it's too abrupt?"
"Hmm..." Kato Hui raised her head slightly, tapping her chin with her slender fingers. "Senpai has always worn a white headband, hasn't she? Although the style has changed, the color has never changed."
Shiyu smiled silently and reached out to fiddle with her hairband.
The white headband does have a deeper meaning to her, just like people in darkness will yearn for light.
In the past, when she was in a gloomy mood, the white headband on her head was her comfort. Maybe one day, even if she was in darkness, there would still be the sun above her head.
Shiyu picked up a little black cat pendant.
A pure black cat, with only a pair of white eyes.
"I suddenly remembered that among the group of kittens that Xiao Mi was playing with, there seemed to be a little black cat. Maybe it was because of its color that fewer people passed by and touched it."
"I also remembered that it didn't seem very approachable. The last time I tried to touch it, it ran away. But Bai Ye-jun touched it, and you touched it too, Senior Sister."
"I was able to find it only after I prepared cat snacks. It gets hungry sometimes, and its vigilance is lowered when it's eating. If you treat it well, it will find its way."
"Makes sense."
Shiyu returned the little white cat pendant to Kato Megumi.
"I think the black cat pendant suits me better, and the white cat pendant suits Kato better."
"really?"
Kato Megumi flipped the little white cat pendant in her palm, then put it back on the shelf. She took down another kitten pendant and placed it on the zipper of her bag, trying to figure it out.
It's a little orange cat.
"I think this one suits me better. The pattern is like Xiaomi. I think white is too heavy."
"As long as you like it." Shiyu smiled slightly.
"Then let's do this."
The two paid and left the jewelry store.
Shiyu pinned the little black cat pendant on the keychain, suddenly stopped and looked at Kato Megumi who turned back after hearing the sound.
"Kato-san, I need a favor from you."
PS: Reward progress report 58 (490/10000), 8 updates are owed, this is a normal update.

Chapter 445: After the Brain War, You Need to Replenish Your Nutrition with Joy
As the sun sets, the venue is brightly lit and bustling with people, enjoying themselves so much that they don't want to leave.
Bai Ye was on his way back to Eriri's stall, and the first thing he saw was Eriri hiding behind a pillar and secretly observing the stall.
The pair of golden ponytails looked like puppy tails, swinging happily left and right, revealing the owner's happy mood.
He walked around the whole day but didn't meet Eriri. Instead, he saw Shiyu and Xiaohui several times, but they "hid" from him.
Thinking of this, he approached Eriri with a speechless look on his face and patted her shoulder.
"No thanks for the sales. I don't like novels. I've loved and cried. I'm full. I'm not the one who flirts with people and walks away." Eriri didn't raise her head, but her words were so coherent as if she had performed them a million times.
white night"……"
It looks like this English girl had a wonderful experience this afternoon!
"Excuse me, are you a puppy?"
"How can you be so rude..." Ying Lili turned back impatiently, and when she saw that the person coming was Bai Ye, she immediately became furious, baring her teeth, and her little golden retriever's fur stood on end.
"You're the puppy, bastard! Your whole family are puppies!"
"If you think about it carefully, you are right."
Yinglili "..."
Her face flushed as she was about to retort, but her delicate little nose lifted up and she instinctively followed the scent to its source.
The octopus balls in Bai Ye's hand.
"Give it to me."
Bai Ye raised his hand to avoid the "vicious dog pouncing on its prey" and grabbed the other party's chin with one hand.
"Didn't you say you were full?"
"That's just an excuse." Eriri pouted in dissatisfaction. "You want me to follow weird people and be fed weird things."
"Huh? You've become much smarter now, knowing how to use this kind of excuse. But at least you know your place."
Bai Ye couldn't refuse this reason. He picked up an octopus ball with a fork and handed it to Ying Lili's mouth, watching her eat it happily.
"Don't you think your IQ drops sharply when you're hungry? But today is different."
"Wuwu——" Eriri ate another dumpling. Unable to speak, she could only protest with whimpers and eyes.
After eating half of the meatballs, she licked the mayonnaise dripping from her fingertips, showing a satisfied expression like a puppy.
"Did you buy the comics I mentioned?"
"I bought it." Bai Ye pointed at the bag at his feet. "I say, you won't stay here all day, will you?"
"Yes, is there a problem?" Ying Lili squatted down to check the bag. Seeing that there was no book missing, she patted Bai Ye's shoulder with relief and gave him a thumbs up with a smile.
"Thank you for your hard work. Good job. Continue tomorrow."
"Ni Zuokai!"
Bai Ye pressed on her without saying a word, resting his chin on her head, and quietly observed the stall with her, his posture just like the cat head stacking game in "Tom and Jerry".
"I sold one book, then another, and then another..." Bai Ye rubbed her head with his chin.
"What?" Eriri nodded her head in response.
"Honestly, what's so interesting about this? Tell me."
"Everywhere is interesting, and you can kill two birds with one stone. Don't you understand~( ̄? ̄)~" Eriri explained proudly.
"The chances of being exposed are lower if I hide here, and there's an inexplicable excitement in watching the small amounts of money trickle into my pocket."
"I understand this. You have to share 50% of your happiness with me. When I think about this, I feel even happier!"
“Damn it——!”
