The goal of life is to break up all couples

Matsueda Azusa couldn't help but secretly complain in her heart. It was all because of that girl Hiratsuka Shizuka. She insisted on dragging Nishimiya Shoko to listen to their performance. Maybe this was the reason.

Really, forcing a hearing-impaired person to listen to music seems a bit too hellish no matter how you think about it.

But it's a good thing to have a new hobby. Since it's something she likes, there's no need for Matsueda Azusa to spoil her fun.

"That's pretty good too."

Songzhi Zi waved at them and said, "Have fun then. I have something else to do here, so I'll be leaving first."

Upon hearing this, Nishimiya Glass nodded quickly.

Azusa Matsueda and the other members of the band continued to move forward. From a distance behind them, they heard Yuzuru Nishimiya's complaining voice. It seemed as if he was saying something like, "Why is my sister so timid?" He sounded like he was disappointed in his sister.

No, no, no, hearing-impaired people can enjoy listening to music, which is not cowardly. Even Matsueda Azusa doesn't think she can do such a thing.

"If I'm not mistaken...is that the student just now?"

Ijichi Nijika seemed to have noticed that something was wrong with Nishimiya Shoko - or rather, anyone who saw her writing in a notebook could notice it - she pointed to her ear and asked hesitantly.

Songzhi Zi nodded, "Indeed."

Hongxia couldn't help but reveal a look of pity.

She seemed to want to ask something else, but before she could say anything, she heard someone not far away suddenly greet her.

"Ah! Matsueda-san! What a coincidence! I was just planning to look for you during this time."

A boy wearing glasses, looking intellectual and elegant, was waving over here.

Matsueda Azusa glanced blankly at the person who greeted him.

Huh? Who is this? Does he know him?

Why greet him so familiarly?

After reminiscing for a moment, Matsueda Azusa finally remembered from the corner of his memory, isn't this the same Ayano Mitsuki that he had torn apart before?!

Oh no, is he coming here looking for revenge? But looking at his expression, he doesn't seem to have any malicious intentions.

Strangely, Ayano Mitsuki was the first one to come to him after being separated by him. Matsueda Azusa couldn't help but feel curious about what he was up to.

Yamada Ryo looked at Matsueda Azusa and said, "Matsueda, you have so many acquaintances... Could it be that you are actually a popular person?"

Following behind, Goto Ichiri's worldview shattered. What?! She'd thought Matsueda Azusa was one of her kind, but she'd actually been a real person?! Wasn't that just her wishful thinking? She'd always felt close to Matsueda Azusa, a kindred spirit, but it turned out she was just overthinking things... Poor... Poor Lucy!

"What do you mean by many acquaintances..."

Matsueda Azusa wiped the sweat off his face and said, "It should be said that I have many enemies..."

Yamada Ryo glanced doubtfully at Ayano Mitsuki who was walking towards them, "This guy doesn't look like your enemy. This guy seems to treat you better than your friend Miura."

It really is.

But Miura was also considered to be on the same side as Matsueda Azusa's enemy at the beginning... right?

Could they really be considered friends now? It felt more like a traitor who had his eye on his ministerial position, always ready to usurp the throne...

Seeing Ayano Mitsuki approaching, Matsueda Azusa asked with some confusion, "Ayano-san, what do you want to talk to me about? Our Inspection Department doesn't provide after-sales service. Besides, even if you need after-sales service, it should be Shaoyan-san who should be the one to handle it."

Ayano Mitsuki smiled helplessly, seemingly without any ill intentions. "That's not the case. It's just... I have a question I'd like to ask Matsueda-san. Could you lend me a moment of your time?"

Matsueda Azusa looked back at the others who had finished the band.

They looked at each other and said they had no objection.

So Mitsuki Ayano took Azusa Matsueda to a stairwell not far away where there were few people.

When Kita Ikuyo saw the two of them walking away, he immediately raised his hand and whispered, "Well, I want to eavesdrop!"

Ijichi Hongxia looked at Kita Ikuyo in surprise. She didn't expect her to say such a thing, so she quickly objected, "That kind of thing isn't allowed, is it? Eavesdropping on other people is so disrespectful and rude! You can't do that!"

Kita Ikuyo turned her head away with regret.

But unexpectedly, Yamada Ryo touched his chin and nodded in agreement: "I agree, eavesdropping."

Hong Xia's eyes widened: "Huh?!"

"Because just now Songzhi said that guy is not his friend, but actually his enemy. And he brought him to such a deserted place. What if he has ulterior motives?"

Yamada Ryo explained seriously and confidently, "To ensure Matsueda's safety, it makes sense for us to move over and protect him in secret, right?"

Kita Ikuyo couldn't help but praise him in her heart, "As expected of Senior Liang! He's really thoughtful!"

Hong Xia was a little shaken by what Yamada Ryo said: "Eh? Is... is that so? Indeed... I think Matsueda-san said that just now. Is there really danger? Well, then we should go and take a look!"

The few of them hit it off immediately and took Goto Ichiri, who was completely caught off guard, to the outside of the stairwell and secretly eavesdropped from the corner.

As for Azusa Matsueda and Mitsuki Ayano.

The atmosphere was silent for a moment, and then Ayano Mitsuki scratched her cheek, revealing a somewhat tangled and troubled expression.

He looked at Matsueda Azusa and sighed: "Well, Matsueda-san, actually, after the incident where the Supervisory Department intervened, I have been reflecting and thinking about it. However, I feel that I am in a dilemma now, and I really don't know how to deal with it..."

"?"

Matsueda Azusa blinked. This guy actually came to consult about his troubles? They had clearly broken up his relationship, but he actually came to him for help... There really are such pure-hearted people in the world...

Matsueda Azusa coughed and said, "So, Ayano-san, what trouble are you in now?"

196

Chapter 196 Which one should I choose? Which one should I choose?

Ayano Mitsuki looked a little ashamed and sighed, "After Chihaya and I broke up, I thought about it carefully... I really do have feelings for Lemon that go beyond the normal limit. Especially after she expressed her feelings to me, I realized this even more."

"Perhaps I always subconsciously believed that a girl as outstanding as Lemon couldn't possibly have any feelings for me, so I subconsciously didn't dare to show any affection for her. It's always been like this, and in the end, even I was deceived."

"But... the thing is, my feelings for Chihaya are not fake. Even though Chihaya was the one who confessed her feelings to me first, and I was the slow one in this relationship, but... even so, I can confirm that I truly love her and I'm not just playing with her feelings."

At this point, Ayano Mitsuki grabbed a handful of hair in great distress: "Although I have indeed reflected and thought clearly about my own inner thoughts during this period, this makes it even more difficult for me to make a decision."

"If I choose Lemon, I really don't know how to face Chihaya. She didn't do anything wrong, but in the end, she was the only one who got hurt. However, if I choose Chihaya, I can't let go of Lemon..."

"Come to think of it, maybe after what happened, they both no longer have a favorable impression of me and think I'm a cowardly bastard. If that's the case, maybe it would be better for me... At least I wouldn't have to make such a choice again."

Songzhi Zi was stunned when he heard this.

No, buddy, I picked it for you?

This guy looks like he's really troubled about who to choose, and he even comes to me, the Minister of Supervision, for help. Are you really serious?

This is a direct provocation to Xi.

Songzhi Zi couldn't help but ask: "Are you serious?"

Ayano Mitsuki nodded vigorously: "Seriously!"

He looked at Songzhi Azusa with hope, as if he sincerely wanted to get an answer or a solution from Songzhi Azusa.

"If you insist, I can only answer like this..."

Songzhi Zi hesitated for a moment, then replied: "If you only have one person in your heart, then you can choose one and hurt one. But if you have two people in your heart... then you'd better not choose either one, otherwise both of you will be hurt."

Ayano Mitsuki fell silent after hearing this. After thinking for a moment, he said dejectedly: "Yeah... If you still like someone else in your heart, no matter who you choose to be with, it seems like you're just an asshole. In this case, I really still..."

"No... No! It's not like that!"

At this moment, an anxious voice suddenly came from the darkness. Matsueda Azusa and Ayano Mitsuki were startled and subconsciously looked over there.

But he discovered that it was Chihaya Asagumo who had been hiding in the dark and eavesdropping since who knows when!

When did this guy get here?! How did she know that Ayano Mitsuki would drag Matsueda Azusa here to talk about something related to them? How long had she been listening to this? This is so scary!

Chihaya Asagumo didn't bother to explain why she was here. Instead, she anxiously explained to Mitsuki Ayano: "Even if you have someone else in your heart, Mitsuki, if you choose to be with me, that certainly isn't hurting me, right? On the contrary, not being with me anymore is the real harm!"

Ayano Mitsuki looked puzzled and bewildered upon hearing this: "Why...why? If I choose to be with you, Chihaya, when I clearly like someone else...no matter how I look at it, it's pretty irresponsible, isn't it?"

"Because I don't care about such trivial issues at all! Everyone's feelings are different, right? Some people will feel very painful when encountering the same thing, but some people don't think it's a serious matter. Mitsuki, you think you will hurt me by doing this, but I don't think I will be hurt at all!"

Chihaya Asagumo explained without hesitation: "What other people are thinking and feeling, your own guesses and judgments are inaccurate, right? Only other people's own thoughts are the real results, aren't they? So, even if you do this, I won't feel hurt. Because I just like you so much."

The ultimate love-brain! This has nothing to do with rationality or emotion, it's completely overwhelmed!

Songzhi Zi couldn't help but be shocked.

Chihaya Asagumo continued, "Mitsuki, what you said about being irresponsible or not is just other people's opinions. Ultimately, what other people think and what social rules say about us doesn't really matter, right? Love is just a matter between the two of us, and any other opinions are just for reference."

Matsueda Azusa frowned and retorted, "But Ayano-san has figured this out and wants to take responsibility. Is this for your own good?"

"Why is it for my own good? Is this what you consider 'for my own good', or is it what the world considers 'for my own good'? But no matter which one it is, it has nothing to do with me, right? If I don't think this is good for me, then why is it for my own good?"

Apparently, after being verbally abused by Matsueda Azusa, Chihaya Asagumo calmed down and carefully considered the relevant issues, eventually forming a set of logic that was completely her own. Therefore, she was very well prepared for Matsueda Azusa's questioning and refuted it without hesitation: "Emotions are a purely subjective thing with no standards, no good or bad. So, if I think it's good, it's good, and if I think it's bad, it's bad. What others say doesn't count!"

Mitsuki Ayano was wavering, and seemed to be persuaded by Chihaya Asagumo.

Matsueda Azusa crossed his arms and said, "Personal feelings are of course subjective, but there are always some things that cannot be ignored with such an excuse."

He turned to look at Ayano Mitsuki. "Ayano-san, put yourself in her shoes. If you were to switch places with Asagumo-san, would you be able to accept Asagumo being with you while she still has feelings for another man? They might even get very close to each other and do things between them in private... things like that. Would you be able to accept that?"

"No, I really still can't accept it..."

Ayano Mitsuki subconsciously answered Matsueda Azusa's question, and then he revealed a look of sudden realization: "Indeed... no matter what, this kind of thing is still..."

"No! Mitsuki, you've been misled by Matsueda-san again! I should have made it clear just now."

Chihaya Asagumo grabbed Mitsuki Ayano's hand tightly and said, "This kind of thing is only acceptable to me. I'm not forcing you to accept it. So, it doesn't matter if you can't accept it, because I won't do that. But you can do this, because I can accept it."

Crazy, absolutely crazy. This is pure love, there's no way you can reason with someone like that.

Ayano Mitsuki was also startled, but she finally smiled helplessly and said, "But... Chihaya, it's because of what you said that I can't accept myself doing such a thing. In this way, this is not an equal relationship at all, right? I still... can't accept myself becoming such a person."

After hearing Ayano Mitsuki's final answer, Asagumo Chihaya finally calmed down. She was silent for a long time, but could only look at Ayano Mitsuki and shake her head.

Ayano Mitsuki sighed and said helplessly to Matsueda Azusa: "Sorry, Matsueda-san, I really troubled you today..."

Anyway, it seems unlikely that they will get back together in the short term, so Matsueda Azusa might as well give them some personal time.

As soon as he left the stairwell, Matsueda Azusa saw the four people who had finished the band gathered outside and eavesdropped.

Unable to help but frown, Matsueda Azusa was about to say something, but Yamada Ryo spoke first: "So, Matsueda—you have never accepted my pursuit, is it because there is someone else in your heart?"

"?ah?"

Songzhi Zi widened his eyes in confusion.

No, he was just confused. How could there be any other people who appeared out of nowhere in his mind?

But when Yamada Ryo looked at Matsueda Azusa's slightly surprised expression, he nodded very firmly with an expression of "I see."

"Then...this problem is actually very easy to solve."

Yamada Ryo said seriously: "Then let's not be lovers..."

"It's better to just become a family."

"If there can only be one lover, then there can be many family members, right?"

197

Chapter 197 Yamada Ryo’s amazing wisdom.

"Eh?"

“Ehhhh?!!!”

As soon as Yamada Ryo said this, everyone in the band couldn't help but let out sounds of surprise and confusion.

What's going on? Why did he suddenly make such a strange announcement?

Although it is very Yamada Ryo's style to say this out of the blue, it still makes people feel confused!

But what surprised them even more was that after a moment of surprise and hesitation at first, Matsueda Azusa actually soon showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.

Songzhi Zi clapped his hands vigorously, "Hey! This is good!"

Kita Ikuyo looked back and forth between Matsueda Azusa and Yamada Ryo, bewildered. How on earth could this train of thought have connected? Was this a strange train of thought unique to them? While Ryo-senpai must have had her reasons for doing this, why had Matsueda Azusa agreed so readily?

What puzzled her even more was that, compared to Ryo's lover, Matsueda Azusa was more inclined to become a so-called family member? She felt something was amiss.

When Yamada Ryo saw that Matsueda Azusa expressed his agreement, he immediately nodded as if to say, "As expected."

To be honest, the fact that Azusa Matsueda agreed so readily to become family instead of lovers just confirmed Yamada Ryo's guess.

After all, logically speaking... Yamada Ryo couldn't think of any reason why Matsueda Azusa repeatedly said that she needed to think more about it in the face of her offensive - unless Matsueda Azusa really didn't like her at all, but... this was obviously impossible, and Yamada Ryo was very sure of this.
