My deskmate is Nakano Satsuki.

She must be very tired these days.

Yukino looked at her older sister beside her. Haruno sensed this and immediately looked over with her bright eyes. "Yukino, what's wrong?"

"nothing."

Yukino withdrew her gaze and said calmly.

It's over.

Ye Feng drank a cup of coffee, and then left with Jing Ke'ai.

Unfortunately, I had planned to help Miku exercise during PE class, but now I'll have to save that for next time.

Ahem...

Of course, he didn't mean to bully Miku. Although Miku was incredibly cute with her puffed-up cheeks, making him want to tease her, that wasn't the point. The point was...

Miku needs to work out.

Therefore, Ye Feng said he was very serious about helping Miku exercise without being too tired.

Back at Zongwu High School, Jing Ke'ai parked the car and called out to Ye Feng, who had just opened the door. Seeing him looking over, she casually tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and said, "Ye Feng, when are you coming out for a drink?"

Are you sure you just want to have one drink?

Ye Feng was silent for a moment, looked at Jing Ke'ai with disdain, and said decisively, "Sorry, I don't have time."

"Hey! That's enough!"

Jing Ke's cheeks flushed slightly, and she gritted her teeth, saying, "What are you thinking? I really just wanted to have a drink, and then I wanted to ask you a few questions..."

Even though you say that, what if you drink too much again?

Ye Feng narrowed his eyes: "You can ask whatever you want now."

"No, my mind is a mess right now."

Jing Ke covered her forehead and said, "Let me calm down first. Anyway, don't worry this time, I promise I won't get drunk again."

"..."

After saying goodbye to Jing Ke'ai, Ye Feng arrived at the classroom. By this time, Zongwu High School had already let out for the day, so there were only a few people left in the classroom.

Ye Feng picked up his schoolbag, turned around, and walked out of the classroom.

He had already told the Nakano sisters in advance that by now, everyone except Yotsuba should have already gone back.

After leaving Zongwu High School, Ye Feng did not head towards the apartment, but instead turned and walked into a park not far away.

On a bench in the corner of the park, a short-haired girl was looking down, fiddling with the camera in her hand.

This girl was none other than Yuzuru Nishimiya.

Ye Feng walked over and sat down, turning his head to look at the girl who was looking at him: "Yuzuru, what photos did you take? Can I see them?"

Yuzuru Nishimiya glanced at him, handed him the camera, and said with displeasure, "These are all photos of you. Seriously, aren't you going a bit too far? My sister already confessed to you, and you're still getting so close to other girls..."

Ye Feng flipped through the photos and said, "Sorry, your sister knows about this. Besides, Shoko and I aren't officially dating yet, so it's not a problem if I get close to other girls, right...?"

"what?"

Nishimiya Yuzuru stared at him with wide eyes: "You actually want to openly have multiple relationships at the same time?"

"..."

Ye Feng twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, then suddenly realized he was speechless. He could only put on a stern face and say, "Sorry, I don't understand what you're saying."

"Hey~"

Nishimiya Yuzuru crossed her arms, her eyes filled with disdain: "Is it just that you don't understand, or that you're denying it?"

Sorry.

If we deny it now, it's like slapping ourselves in the face!

Ye Feng decisively changed the subject: "It's about time, let's go!"

Yuzuru Nishimiya held out her small hand: "Give me the camera."

"..."

They took the tram and soon arrived near the Nishimiya residence.

Nishimiya Yuzuru looked around and said, "You haven't come over for a while, and my sister has been in a bad mood, forcing a smile every day."

At this point, Nishimiya Yuzuru sighed: "I already told my sister to invite you directly, but she's afraid of bothering you, so she won't take the initiative."

So you came here to scout out the enemy's situation and, incidentally, invite them?

Nishimiya Shoko is so lucky to have a younger sister like you!

"Honestly, you should at least take the initiative. Do you expect the girl to make the first move?"

"I do not have."

Ye Feng covered his forehead: "Anyway, you go home obediently, I'll go find Shoko."

"I followed behind."

"no!"

Ye Feng said expressionlessly, "Yuzuru, you need to get rid of your bad habit of stalking others!"

Nishimiya Yuzuru whistled, turned his face away, put his hands in his pockets, and snorted, "Who was following me? We just happened to run into them. Besides, I can even give you some advice!"

Ah ~

Thank you so much!

Just as Ye Feng was about to speak, Nishimiya Shoko's delighted voice suddenly rang out.

"Ye Fengjun!"

Octopus #208 looks incredibly stupid.

At the end of the forest path, under the swaying shadows of the trees, a girl in a school uniform, clutching her handbag, ran over with a look of delight on her face.

When she got closer, the girl patted her chest, looked up at Ye Feng, and her eyes gleamed with an unusual light.

"Good afternoon, Ye Fengjun."

"Well, good afternoon."

Ye Feng's gaze fell on Nishimiya Shoko's face. He hadn't seen her for a few days; the girl seemed to have really lost some weight...

In other words, everything Nishimiya Yuzuru said is true?

However, when they were chatting on their phones, he couldn't see anything unusual about Nishimiya Shoko at all!

Seeing that he was staring at her, Nishimiya Shoko's pretty face flushed slightly. She glanced at her younger sister, pursed her lips, and asked shyly, "Ye Fengjun, what's wrong?"

Now, with just a simple conversation, Nishimiya Shoko is completely fine.

"nothing."

Ye Feng looked at Nishimiya Yuzuru, raised an eyebrow and said, "Yuzuru, didn't you say you had something else to do?"

Yuzuru Nishimiya: "... ..."

hateful!

This guy is going way too far!

I brought you here myself, and instead of thanking me, you actually kicked me out?

Nishimiya Yuzuru glared at Ye Feng and said, "Sister, I have something to do, so I'll head back first."

Nishimiya Shoko responded softly.

After Yuzuru Nishimiya left, Shoko Nishimiya pursed her lips, looked down at her toes, and suddenly became so nervous that she didn't know what to say.

Before we met, my heart was filled with anticipation and longing; however, when we finally met, I was so nervous and shy that I didn't know what to do...

This is a true reflection of Nishimiya Shoko.

Ye Feng thought for a moment, then held out his hand: "Shoko, give me your schoolbag."

Yuzuru Nishimiya always says he's not proactive enough, and he's always worrying about the two of them, even volunteering to come up with ideas... ...Cricket, a middle school student, has such a big mouth.

Today I'll show you whether you're proactive or not!

"Eh?"

Nishimiya Shoko paused, then quickly waved her hand, "N-no need, I can carry it myself..."

OMG!

What am I doing?!

Shouldn't we give him the backpack at this point?

Stupid!

Nishimiya Shoko hesitated for a moment, then blushed and placed her schoolbag in his hands.

Although this is just a case of saying one thing and doing another, there's no way around it. He finally took the initiative, so of course I have to seize the opportunity, right?

Furthermore, Yuzuru mentioned that he has other beautiful and cute girls around him, apparently quintuplets...

In short, before he makes a decision, even I have a chance, right?

"Um... is Ye Fengjun going to feed the fish?"

Seeing Nishimiya Shoko looking at him expectantly, Ye Feng, though not understanding what was so interesting about feeding the fish, did not refuse.

Basically, when dating a girl, you just go wherever she wants to go, that's all.

It's still that same little bridge.

As the traffic flowed by, Nishimiya Shoko took out a baguette she had prepared from her schoolbag, tore off half of it, and handed it to Ye Feng: "Ye Feng-kun, these are for you."

"Ah."

Ye Feng leaned on the fence, but instead of feeding the fish, he turned his head to watch Nishimiya Shoko feeding them.

We first met on this bridge.

At that time, the girl was also feeding the fish. The smile on her face was serene and gentle, making people feel at first glance that she was a gentle girl.

And indeed, that is the case.

Nishimiya Shoko has an extremely gentle personality, almost to the point of being overly gentle. If she has a conflict with someone, regardless of whether she is right or wrong, her first action is to apologize...

Her gentleness is heartbreaking.

In short, in his eyes, he was just a gentle fool.

But it is precisely because of such fools that a different kind of brilliance shines in this increasingly cold world.

And now.

She's still a gentle fool, never complaining, only trying her best to speak up for the other person and make excuses...

But one thing has changed.

That is, there is a different kind of brilliance in the girl's eyes.

What is it?

It must be hope, and aspirations for the future, right?

Nishimiya Shoko belatedly realized that Ye Feng had been watching her the whole time, only after she had fed him half of the bread...

"Ye Fengjun, what's wrong?"

Nishimiya Shoko tilted her head and looked at her, blinked, and then a shy and gentle smile appeared on her face.

"These are for you too."

"Hey, Ye Fengjun, aren't you feeding the fish?"

Ye Feng said, "The way the fish stare with their big eyes looks so stupid. I prefer watching Nishiko feed the fish rather than feeding them."

The scene of Nishimiya Shoko feeding the fish is very gentle and serene, giving people the feeling that warm sunlight dispels the coldness of darkness.
