Back in his room, Lin Xi took out several gift boxes.
These were the ones that Miura Yumiko and the others had given him.
Yuiigahama Yui insisted that he open them when he got home, saying there would be a surprise?
Now is the perfect time to open them and see.
First.
"This one must be from Yumiko, oh, a currently popular otherworld harem adventure light novel."
"This one is from Mahiru, a book about scriptwriting?"
It seems the angel is seeing that he's been working with Misaki-senpai recently and wants to give him some help.
This book isn't cheap either.
It costs 300,000 yen.
More expensive than Natsume Soseki's 'Kokoro'.
"Let me see Yuiigahama-san's, uh…"
"A manga with a big-breasted sister on the cover? And it's the erotic type?"
"Yui, are you serious?"
Lin Xi's expression turned strange.
Yuiigahama-san, are you implying something?
Finally, there's Ebina Hina.
She wouldn't give him a BL book, would she?
That wouldn't be thanking him, but rather biting the hand that feeds him.
Opening it up.
Thank goodness.
It's a doujin manga of the novel Miura Yumiko gave him, the erotic type.
So, why did you and Yui both give him erotic manga?
Do I look like a pervert?
Lin Xi complained inwardly, already looking forward to seeing Yuiigahama Yui tomorrow.
To think she'd give him such a manga, see how you face me tomorrow.
What he didn't know was.
Yuiigahama Yui was already rolling around on her bed, burying her blushing face in her pillow, completely unsure how to face Lin Xi tomorrow.
"Wah, Lin-kun won't think I'm a little pervert, will he, to think I gave him an erotic manga…"
Unlike Yuiigahama Yui, who was panicking and unable to sleep.
Ebina Hina, who also gave him an erotic manga, was looking confused.
She originally wanted to slip in some personal stuff, but Yumiko found out.
Back to Lin Xi's side.
He was still very satisfied with the girls' gifts.
After all, he said he liked light novels and manga during his self-introduction at the start of the semester.
The fact that they could give him this also counts as catering to his preferences, choosing items he liked to express their gratitude.
That counts as thoughtful.
Okay, actually, he likes anything given by beautiful girls.
What's important isn't what they give.
But that the people giving the gifts are all beautiful girls.
Lin Xi felt that he was still very simple and easily moved.
After a while.
Shiina Mahiru came back.
She cautiously came to the door of Lin Xi's room.
"Lin Xi, I'm back."
"Come in."
As the door opened, the girl appeared with a nervous expression.
She shyly held out his coat, lowering her head.
"Lin Xi…"
"Come over here!" Lin Xi smiled and waved at her.
After she closed the door and walked over, he directly grabbed her arm and pulled her into his arms.
Shiina Mahiru sat on his lap, her pretty face flushed red.
Lin Xi didn't make any extra movements.
Just gently stroking her hair.
"I think Mahiru definitely has something to say to me, right～?"
"Yes, I want to apologize to you."
"I'm sorry, Lin Xi, I was wrong."
"I shouldn't have presumptuously asked you to pursue Yumiko from the starting point of helping a friend, that was very wrong."
"There's nothing wrong with it, I quite admire Yumiko, but what I want to tell you is that instead of hiding our relationship to pursue her, it's better to get along openly as friends."
"That way, even if it doesn't work out, we can continue to be friends, instead of hiding our relationship, think about it, if Yumiko finds out later that her best friend was pushing things forward to get me to succeed, your friendship wouldn't be able to continue, right?"
Mahiru's request wasn't to hide their relationship and have him pursue Miura-san, but she didn't know what to do for a while, so this situation formed.
And Lin Xi didn't want to hide his feelings for Mahiru, so he revealed everything in front of Yumiko, and also achieved a friendly relationship.
That can be considered a preliminary completion of Mahiru's request.
Thinking of this, he smiled gently at the girl and continued:
"Of course, I understand that Mahiru is considering things for me, I'm very happy, because Mahiru cares about me, and I care about Mahiru too."
"So, Mahiru should have already figured out what to do in the future, right?"
"Yes." She smiled sweetly at him, reaching out to wrap her arms around his neck.
"In the future, let's just continue to get along naturally as friends, I think with your greedy personality, you probably won't face Yumiko without doing anything."
"Hehe, Mahiru still understands me."
"However, rather than things in the future, I want to do bad things to Mahiru more now."
As Lin Xi spoke, he eagerly kissed her.
The angel is too well-behaved.
He naturally felt the emotions that were all for him in those eyes.
He also had to thank her parents for not caring about her.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have had the chance to win her heart so quickly.
Shiina Mahiru didn't refuse his closeness.
It wasn't until Ogiwara Sayu called them to eat that Lin Xi reluctantly let go of the angel.
Shiina Mahiru's body is petite and soft.
And fragrant.
She's also super cute.
Lin Xi felt that he couldn't resist such a girl at all.
The angel was covering her face, feeling extremely embarrassed.
"I feel like I'm becoming stranger and stranger, it's all your fault!"
"Yes, yes, yes, it's all my fault."
"It's me who corrupted Mahiru."
"Hmph, it's good that you know."
She gave a deliberately proud hmph and stretched her slender, cute little legs in front of him.
"Help me put on my socks properly, look at you, you're all messed up."
Lin Xi took a deep breath, took the white socks, and held that crystal-clear, exquisite jade-like foot in his hands.
His other hand gently put on the white socks.
What's it like to put on socks for your girlfriend?
Lin Xi knows now.
It feels super awesome.
Shiina Mahiru blushed slightly as she watched his movements, smoothed out her skirt, and then walked out of the room with him.
They had dinner.
After taking a shower, Shiina Mahiru remembered that she had promised him a lap pillow.
So she prepared to go to Lin Xi's room.
But Ogihara Sayu seemed to have already taken the lead.
The sounds coming from inside made Shiina Mahiru's cheeks burn.
Besides being shy, she also felt a little sour.
It seemed that although she said she didn't mind, she was still jealous.
However, she didn't want to disturb them.
Ogihara Sayu was currently in a sensitive period.
It was better to let Lin Xi comfort her properly.
Anyway, she wasn't ready to give him her body yet.
Well, actually she wanted to.
But she didn't have the chance…
…
In the middle of the night.
Ogihara Sayu had no strength left.
She leaned in Lin Xi's arms and playfully poked his cheek with her finger.
"Mahiru is going to be jealous, you should go find her."
"It's okay if she's a little jealous. If I go find her, although she'll be happy, not only will I feel bad, but she will too."
"Pfft, have you two not even gotten to first base yet?" Ogihara Sayu couldn't help but laugh.
"What, are you so afraid of hurting her? Or are you saying you like Mahiru more than me?"
"~ How could you think that? I like you both! If you really want to compare, then I can only carry you over to her and let you two compare yourselves."
Hearing these rogue words, Ogihara Sayu couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"You really are cunning."
"Does Sayu hate me like this?"
"No, I like it very much," the girl said, leaning closer into his arms.
"Thank you for comforting me. I've become very strong now. In the future, I will also dedicate my strength to you and to this family."
"I won't be outdone by Mahiru."
Lin Xi smiled and rubbed her hair, "Keep it up, I'm waiting for the day you return to school."
"With me around, what's so scary about school?"
"Sayu just hadn't met a responsible person before. Those things weren't your fault, so don't worry, everything will be alright."
"Thank you."
Ogihara Sayu was moved for a moment.
When her parents and brother didn't believe her situation.
This person chose to trust her, and protected and comforted her.
So, she also wanted to do something for him.
"I'm going to the bathroom," she said.
She made an excuse and left the room.
Then she came to Shiina Mahiru's door.
"Mahiru, are you asleep?"
"Mmm… not yet…"
How could she fall asleep when the person she liked was being intimate with another girl?
Ogihara Sayu heard the resentment in her tone, and couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth.
"Lin Xi wants you to go over now, or he'll be very angry."
"Ah? Now?" Shiina Mahiru opened the door, looking at Sayu with a flushed face in surprise.
"Yes, go quickly." She pushed her to the door, giving her an encouraging look.
Shiina Mahiru blushed, bit her lip, and still walked in.
Tip-toeing, she slipped into Lin Xi's bed.
He was so hot.
The warm feeling seemed to burn her as well.
Lin Xi quickly noticed the unusual feeling in his arms.
The feel wasn't Sayu's.
Nor was it Senior.
He opened the window and used the moonlight to see the face of the cute girl in his arms.
"Mahiru!"
"Mmm, idiot, don't call me."
She covered her cheeks, completely afraid to look at his face.
Lin Xi grinned mischievously.
"Tonight, I won't let you leave."
"En, tonight, I won't leave."
"I won't let you sleep either!"
Shiina Mahiru gently raised her hand and wrapped it around his neck.
"I'll do whatever you want."
Lin Xi completely went crazy.
How could the Angel be so cute?
That coquettish, soft voice completely ignited the fire in him.
The skill naturally triggered.
Without hesitation.
Lin Xi lowered his head and kissed her lips.
In the second half of the night's activities.
Sayu even heard Shiina Mahiru begging for mercy.
She couldn't help but laugh.
Who was it who said at the beginning that she would never be moved?
