Shiina Mahiru put her hands on her hips, looking at Lin Xi with a pout.
She asked in a quiet voice:
"Being kissed on the cheek by a super beautiful big sister, aren't you very happy?"
Lin Xi quickly waved his hand.
"No, she didn't kiss me because she liked me, I was being used as a shield~."
"If you don't believe me, look at Hayama Hayato-san over there, his face has turned green."
Shiina Mahiru glanced over, and really saw that Hayama Hayato's usual smile was gone, and instead, he rarely showed a gloomy expression.
She immediately showed a surprised expression.
"Lin Xi, do you mean that Hayama Hayato-san likes Haruno-nee? She treated you like that to use you as a shield, to make Hayama-san give up?"
"But how did you know that?"
"That's right, how did I know that?"
"Stop pretending! Honestly confess, have you taken a fancy to Yukinoshita-san?"
Shiina Mahiru glared at him with a pout.
Lin Xi smiled sheepishly, "I think no boy wouldn't like Yukinoshita-san's cute face."
Shiina Mahiru thought it was true, she was already super popular, and Yukinoshita Yukino's looks were no worse than hers.
Her grades were also excellent enough.
"Lin Xi, honestly confess, you secretly investigated Yukinoshita, what things did you investigate?"
After saying that, Shiina Mahiru showed a gossipy, curious expression.
It didn't seem like she was very angry.
Probably because he had good taste.
After all, Yukinoshita Yukino was no worse than her, so she could accept it more easily.
Anyway, she had already accepted Sayu, and she also said she would give him a chance to prove himself.
If he could really coax her well and make her always feel that warmth, she wouldn't want to leave him.
Furthermore.
She was already close enough to him, just lacking an opportunity to completely give herself to him.
Shiina Mahiru also understood his personality, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with him taking a liking to Yukinoshita Yukino.
But she was definitely jealous.
Seeing her curious expression, Lin Xi didn't hide anything.
He told her some of the things he knew.
"It is said that Yukinoshita Yukino, Hayama Hayato, and Haruno-nee are childhood friends."
"Yukinoshita Yukino and Hayama Hayato belonged to Haruno's group of followers, and were often made to cry by Haruno's pranks."
"You already knew what Haruno-nee's perfect appearance was like just now, right? Hayama learned from her, but he didn't learn it well. Perhaps that's why Haruno-nee doesn't like him."
Who would like a substitute for themselves?
Haruno didn't become the social, perfect superman she is now because she liked it.
And Hayama Hayato has been learning from her, but he hasn't learned the essence. He only knows how to be a "good person", being good to everyone. In elementary school, he even made her favorite younger sister, Yukino, isolated by everyone in the class because of this 騷 operation.
Looking at it this way, Haruno, who is a sister-con, would be a ghost to like Hayama.
It can be said that Hayama Hayato was completely eliminated from the candidates for Haruno's husband since elementary school.
"Hayama's father seems to be the legal advisor of the Yukinoshita family. The parents of both sides often meet, so with this relationship, they have the identity of childhood friends."
Shiina Mahiru frowned after listening to his explanation.
"If Hayama likes Haruno-nee, what about Yumiko?"
She knew that Miura Yumiko had always liked Hayama Hayato.
What's the saying?
The eyes that like a person cannot be hidden.
Moreover.
Miura Yumiko was making it so obvious.
She would express goodwill from time to time, inviting Hayama to hang out.
But thinking about it carefully, it seemed that Hayama would always find a reason to refuse invitations for one-on-one time.
Either he would find a reason to bring "everyone" along.
"Don't you get it? Hayama has always been emulating Yang Nai-nee, so obviously, Miura is also a shield he's chosen."
"Hayato Hayama, how popular he is with girls at school, I don't need to tell you, right?"
"It's said that there are even girls from other schools, girls who used to be in the same school as Hayama, who have always been secretly in love with him."
For example, during middle school, a girl who was confessed to by Hachiman Hikigaya.
Poor Hachiman Hikigaya was ruthlessly rejected, and since then, he has a psychological shadow.
Shiina Mahiru's face changed.
"If Hayama is just planning to use Yumiko as a shield, wouldn't Yumiko be very pitiful?"
She sincerely treats Miura Yumiko as a good friend.
She still remembered when they were surrounded by several hooligans, Miura Yumiko's legs were trembling, she was terribly scared.
But Miura Yumiko still bravely stood in front of her and Yui, wanting to protect them.
Such a good Miura Yumiko, such a good friend, she really couldn't bear to see her get hurt.
Lin Xi shrugged.
"What else?"
"Who told her to like Hayato Hayama, who treats her as a shield and will definitely not date her?"
"I estimate that her five years of feelings, once rejected, will definitely make her cry very sadly."
"Wasted feelings, wasted five years of youth."
It can be said that if Hayato Hayama doesn't accept Miura Yumiko's confession after graduating from high school.
Miura Yumiko will definitely be super miserable, the kind that will cry her heart out.
Shiina Mahiru bit her lip, very displeased with Hayato Hayama.
You say, if you don't know that others like you, and you have someone else in your heart, it's understandable to not accept.
But you clearly know that an excellent girl likes you, but you deliberately turn a blind eye, only using her to block other confessors, with no intention of responding to this sincere feeling.
Then this person seems very disgusting.
More disgusting than a womanizing scumbag.
At least the scumbag responded to the girl's feelings, and in the end, because the girl discovered his womanizing ways, breaking up can be considered the end of this relationship.
The girl can also abandon this scum and find someone who is willing to treat her well.
But Hayama is purely stringing others along, not planning to respond, what's the difference between that and toying with feelings?
"Okay, don't overthink it, let's go to the classroom."
Lin Xi complained about Hayama's Sao operation, and didn't care too much, returning to the classroom with Shiina Mahiru.
After Shiina Mahiru greeted Miura and the others, she returned to her seat, thinking about things.
Miura is very good, especially as a friend, she can be said to have no ulterior motives at all.
Usually, as long as Yui and Hina casually say a few words, praising her, she immediately believes it.
And for the sake of her friends, she is very attentive to everything.
Also because of Miura Yumiko's personality.
That's why Shiina Mahiru chose to join this small group and become friends with them.
However, now that she knows that her friend is waiting, pursuing a love that is destined to be hurt, she can't remain indifferent.
So, during class break, she asked Miura Yumiko a question.
"Yumiko, you say, if there is a person who has always been in love with a boy, but that boy is destined not to accept her confession, what can her friends do to stop her from this impossible love?"
Hearing this, Hina Haiming's eyes lit up.
Did Shiina also see it?
The matter of Hayama using Yumiko as a shield?
Yui Yuigahama shuddered.
She felt that the person Shiina Mahiru was talking about was Shiina herself, and what Shiina Mahiru wanted to pursue was Lin Xi!
Okay, the pink dumpling head girl successfully entered a misunderstanding.
Miura Yumiko was relatively simple.
She really believed that Shiina Mahiru was talking about another friend's matter, and didn't think about herself at all.
So, she waved her hand carelessly and said very directly:
"Isn't it stupid to pursue a love that you know is impossible to achieve? I will find a way to make my good friend give up on that boy who is impossible to catch."
Shiina Mahiru nodded vigorously, her eyes lit up.
That's what she thought too.
That's why she deliberately asked Miura Yumiko, considering it as seeking her opinion.
"But that friend of mine really likes that boy very much, how can I persuade her to give up?"
Shiina Mahiru continued to ask.
Miura Yumiko smiled confidently.
"Isn't that simple? Just introduce her to a better boy, there isn't only one excellent boy in this world, no matter how much she likes that boy, if he always ignores her, she's not stupid, how can she not see another boy who is good to her?"
Shiina Mahiru's eyes lit up.
If you ask her who she thinks is better than Hayato Hayama, or even the best boy.
It seems that there is only Lin Xi!
Ah, wait!
Lin Xi?
Shiina Mahiru immediately became entangled again.
Although she defaulted to his womanizing thoughts, it doesn't mean she can accept him finding several girlfriends now, right?
Where does he have so many hugs to accommodate several girls?
Shiina Mahiru still wants to occupy a little more of this warm embrace.
But...
Besides Lin Xi, who else can be more excellent and charming than Hayato Hayama?
Shiina Mahiru thought for a morning, and finally said to Lin Xi next to her during class break:
..... 0 ....
"Give you a task, you must do it for me."
"Go and chase Miura, let her forget Hayama."
Lin Xi's mouth opened wide.
"Mahiru, do you not want me anymore? Or do you super, super hate me, loathe me?"
Actually letting him chase Miura Yumiko?
What's the situation?
Seeing him panicking, Shiina Mahiru knew that he cared about her, and she felt much better in her heart.
So she said with a smile: "Silly, I don't plan to leave Sakura Manor, it's just... aren't you going to prove to me and Sayu that you can definitely make us all happy, and can accept your greedy thoughts?"
"Chase Miura, make her wholeheartedly fall in love with you, and let her accept me and you, I will... listen to you in everything!"
Lin Xi swallowed.
"Angel-sama, are you serious?"
"Pfft, what Angel-sama, I'm Mahiru, just an ordinary girl who wants to be loved."
"Then you're pushing me out to others? And... Miura has someone she's liked since middle school, how can I make her wholeheartedly fall in love with me?"
Isn't this making things difficult for him, Lin Mou?
Although stealing Hayama and snatching the girl who likes this guy, he's also quite interested.
But this difficulty is very high.
"I don't care, Yumiko is my friend, I don't want to see her confessing after graduation and being rejected, looking heartbroken."
"Lin Xi, help me, okay?"
Lin Xi looked at her seriously, seeing that she was extremely sincere, really wanting to borrow his strength to help her friend, he couldn't help but sigh.
"Tonight, I want Mahiru's lap pillow."
Seeing him make a request, Mahiru knew that he had agreed to her, and immediately showed a smile.
"Thank you."
"Idiot!"
"I don't even know what to say to you, I... I'm your man!"
"I know! Aren't people considering it for you? Who told you to be so perverted?"
"Although we haven't had that... but, I can't hold on, I... I don't want to give you away either, but I don't want you to be uncomfortable."
Lin Xi took a deep breath, "If this wasn't a classroom, I really want to hug you right away."
Why are you so cute?
He is really completely in love.
Shiina Mahiru glanced at him with a red face and said softly:
"Let's talk about it when we get back."
You can hug me however you want.
She also likes to be close to him.
As for what she just said, letting him pursue Miura Yumiko as proof before she would let him touch her, it was just an excuse.
