Chapter 36: Isn’t it okay for me to like you?
Break off the engagement?
The three words spoken by Kanda Kanon were like a bolt from the blue, hitting Gojo Satoru hard on the head.
The boiling blood cooled down instantly. After hearing his inner voice that day, Gojo Satoru once again experienced the feeling of falling from heaven to hell.
It's so easy for Kanda Kanon to play with him! Gojo Satoru gritted his teeth in hatred and really wanted to pounce on him and bite off this little mouth that only knew how to say things he didn't want to hear.
"…What are you talking about? Don't you like me the most?" Gojo Satoru raised his hand and pinched her chin, frowning with a cat-like face, with a cold flash in his eyes, "It's strange, whether it was before or now, why are you like a different person?"
It is impossible to cancel the engagement. This is the only thing that makes Kanda Kanon miss him. If he cancels the engagement, he will probably have to be friends with her for life.
What a joke! You might as well be a scumbag and force your marriage on her!
Gojo Satoru's words were like a bucket of cold water poured on her fevered head.
I almost forgot that Gojo Satoru suspected that he was cursed before. Now he wants to cancel the engagement, which is super strange.
But if I say that I was pretending all this just to break off the engagement with him, I think Gojo Satoru would be even angrier.
After all, she had been lying to him from the beginning to the end. Kanda Kanon licked her lips guiltily and looked left and right but didn't dare to look at him.
"No, that's not it. Wu-kun is so good to me, how can I not like you? It's just that you see, Wu-kun is the bright moon in the sky, and I am just a speck of dust. I don't think you like the marriage that your family forced on you."
"Rather than forcing you to marry me, I hope you can be happy." Kanda Kanon expressed her feelings in a soft and emotional voice.
In order to make him believe that she was not really cursed, Kanda Kanon instantly gave 1,000% of her acting skills and was more serious than ever before.
Her eyes turned slightly, and those eyes seemed to be able to speak, telling of her love.
Time seemed to flow back to the past, and Gojo Satoru was in a trance for a moment. She was like this at that time, giving him endless love and making him indulge in it uncontrollably.
But in an instant he took back his love, everything was false, leaving him broken.
How unfair! He was the only one whose mind was disturbed. Gojo Satoru chuckled. He didn't want to be so anxious.
His lovely fiancée really doesn't understand the bad nature of men at all. What Xiayoujie said is right. No matter how much he pretends to be a good boy, he can't change his scumbag nature.
"Who said I don't want to?" Gojo Satoru said in a surprised tone. He took off his sunglasses and wiped the non-existent tears from his eyes. "You know I haven't had a wife since I was a child. My family laughed at me and my best friends ridiculed me for still being a virgin at such a big age. I finally have a fiancée, how could I not want to?"
"...Huh?" Kanda Kanon looked at him as if he were a monster.
She couldn't understand what nonsense this man was talking about. Not to mention his close friends, who among his family members dared to laugh at him?
"Kane." Gojo Satoru suddenly came close, holding her frozen face with both hands, and gently rubbed her cherry lips with his thumb. A hint of hostility flashed in his blue eyes under his sunglasses, "Did someone say anything in your ear?"
Kanda Kanon's heart skipped a beat. Someone's rough fingers on her lips made her unable to move or speak.
He was afraid that if she moved, her finger would poke into his mouth, and he didn't know whether he had washed his hands.
Gojo Satoru's expression eased a little when he heard that, but he moved even closer, his breath hitting her face. Kanda Kanon twisted her body uncomfortably.
"You may have misunderstood something. No one in this world can force me to do something I don't want to do." Gojo Satoru's hoarse voice made her ears itchy.
[How come this person has no sense of distance at all? I feel embarrassed.] But what does he mean by this? Does he not want to break off the engagement with me? Why? 】
Kanda Kanon didn't take his words the wrong way. In her mind, how could a high-end chef like Gojo Satoru like her? What's more, she has been pretending to be the rotten orange character he hates so much.
[Could it be... that you want to use me as a shield? It's possible. I heard that there are a lot of women who want to get into his bed, so having me around saves him a lot of trouble. 】
[I'm really conflicted. I really want to cancel the engagement, but he's been so good to me. It would be disloyal to leave him alone, regardless of whether it's true or not. 】
Kanda Kanon's inner voice made Gojo Satoru more and more upset. He really wanted to open her brain to see if this person was made of wood. Why was she like a piece of wood?
No, if this continues, my wife will turn against me!
Gojo Satoru coughed lightly, his face flushed, his eyes wandered around and he looked a little uneasy, his mouth opened and closed, looking extremely conflicted.
This was the first time she had seen Gojo Satoru like this. He usually looked arrogant like a self-centered young master, but what happened to him now?
[Why are you so lame after not seeing you for a few days? Are you too embarrassed to ask me for help? Or should I just come clean? 】
"Tsk!" Gojo Satoru held her face and stared at her without avoiding her.
It is said that the person who falls in love first is the loser. It is true. He has no way of waiting for the day when she changes her mind.
"Listen carefully, I don't want to break off the engagement with you, and I will never break off the engagement with you in this lifetime, so stop worrying about anything!" Gojo Satoru said gritting his teeth.
[What do you mean? This person actually wants me to be a shield for the rest of my life! 】Kanda Kanon opened her eyes wide in disbelief.
Gojo Wuqi was so anxious, how could a person be so slow!
"Because I like you, idiot!" Gojo Satoru yelled.
The next second, Gojo Satoru realized what he had said, and the heat went from his chest to his face, and his whole body turned into a red tomato.
Damn it, I clearly swore that I would let her confess first!
This is the bottom line of humanity: one step back, all steps back.
“…” Kanda Kanon fell into the cat universe.
[Who likes me?] Gojo Satoru likes me? Haha, I'm really staying up too late and I'm starting to hear auditory hallucinations. 】
Gojo Satoru, who had given up hope, was completely deflated. He frowned and continued in a hoarse voice, "Yes, I like you. Why, is that not okay? Who said I can't like you?!"
"It just so happens that you like me and I like you, we are a perfect match. Don't talk about breaking off the engagement anymore, I don't want to hear it!" After saying what he had been holding in his heart, although he felt a little embarrassed, Gojo Satoru felt a lot more relaxed.
Gojo Satoru's gaze fell on her lips, which were slightly open due to shock. His eyes darkened and he slowly lowered his head.
It was less than a centimeter away from the place he had been thinking about, but in the end it was offset.
Gojo Satoru's lips fell on her cheek, and as if venting his anger, he kissed her very hard.
"Bang!" A loud sound rang on her face, and Kanda Kanon was petrified.
One day, she must kiss him actively!
Gojo Satoru let go of his hand and stood up. He tried to pretend to be calm and leave, but he stumbled as soon as he raised his leg and almost fell on the spot.
But no one noticed his embarrassment because the other person in the room was about to disappear into the sky.
"I'll come to see you tomorrow morning. Don't go out by yourself, okay?" Gojo Satoru hurried to the door and did not forget to remind her.
After opening the door and walking outside, Gojo Satoru stopped again, hesitated for a while, and turned back.
"You, remember to put the Tensakiboko away and don't hurt yourself, okay?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was closed by Gojo Satoru with a bang. The white-haired young man outside the door, who was steaming all over, strode forward and fled in panic.
Of course, he would never admit that he was so lame. He was just in a hurry to go back and take a shower, so he smelled a little.
…His mouth smelled sweet, and Gojo Satoru swallowed his saliva.
The room fell silent. Kanda Kanon remained in the same position for a long time, like a fool.
Finally, the cursed spirit A next to her came over uncertainly and nudged her.
This human being is dying. If she dies, it won’t be able to survive!
Kanda Kanon fell straight to the ground like a sculpture, her whole body red from head to toe.
She has no experience in love and has never been so close to any boy in her life.
She usually talks about liking this and that, but in fact, a kiss on the cheek is enough to make her surrender.
If Geto Suguru were here, he would definitely be very moved. They are obviously an engaged couple, but they can't even give a kiss on the face. They are not even as good as a primary school kid.
"Woof!" Curse Spirit A was terrified. Oh no, he was being scammed and his life was in danger!
"Actually, I was just dreaming, right, silly dog..." Kanda Kanon's faint voice sounded, and before Curse Spirit A could breathe a sigh of relief, a few strands of hair on its head were grabbed in her hands.
"Don't you feel any pain? You definitely don't feel any pain because this is all a dream!" Kanda Kanon began to escape from reality.
"...Woo woo woo!" Cursed Spirit A cursed very dirty.
Kanda Kanon arched her butt and crawled on the floor like a caterpillar.
After the shyness, there are a lot of question marks.
She kept mumbling, "How could this happen? This shouldn't be the case. How could Gojo Satoru like me? Doesn't he hate rotten oranges the most?"
"No..." Kanda Kanon suddenly remembered that the crappy book was not trustworthy at all, "After all, it's all your fault..."
Kanda Kanon jumped and knocked down the book that was trying to escape.
"Are you happy that you made up a story that frightened me for so long?"
Tearing, throwing, stepping on, and ravaging it, Kanda Kanon tortured it with all kinds of means. Although she was gasping for breath in the end, it was unharmed, but the anger in her heart was finally vented.
Finally, she collapsed on the ground in a humiliating manner, holding her head and rolling from side to side.
Although the content of this book is not accurate, some parts of it are still of reference value.
If you think about it calmly, Gojo Satoru really hated her in the beginning, and even called her a fool more than once. It was obvious that he was not happy with the engagement and was disgusted with her bad character.
Where did it start to change? Was it the one-day trip to the hotel? But it seemed like he had been acting strange long before.
"But no matter what, you shouldn't fall in love with me. Are you really a masochist?" Kanda Kanon was puzzled.
Suddenly, she realized something was wrong.
Come to think of it, she initially acted out the character of an arrogant and brainless young lady because she firmly believed that Gojo Satoru hated this kind of rotten orange.
But think about it carefully, is this really the case?
The Gojo Satoru who hates rotten oranges so much that he wants to kill them all is the Gojo Satoru who appears the most times in the book.
That’s right, that was the future Gojo Satoru who experienced the betrayal of his friends, suffered countless setbacks, lost a lot, and finally decided to change the world of sorcery.
Instead of the current 16-year-old Gojo Satoru.
It is true that Gojo Satoru now hates those rotten oranges, but it is far from the level of hatred. He is now no different from a rebellious teenager who ran away from home.
That's all he hates.
Even if someone asked him to kill those rotten oranges, he would think that person was crazy.
She made a huge mistake. Lost in the ocean of information, ignoring the most basic facts.
She is such a fool, how could she make such a low-level mistake!
Even if there was nothing wrong with the damn book, her plan had gone wrong from the very beginning.
"Wait, if that's the case, then if we take Gojo Satoru's perspective into consideration, wouldn't I be!!!" Kanda Kanon discovered the blind spot.
His fiancée came up to him and was very attentive to him, expressing her deep love to him every day, giving him gifts whenever she had the chance, trying to make him happy, and she acted like a good girlfriend who was very filial to her parents.
What's the difference between this and attacking him?
"It's bad!" Kanda Kanon cried and held her head, "I'm the scumbag!"
"What's the difference between this and deceiving an innocent boy!"
After she conquered him, she turned around and asked him whether she wanted to cancel the engagement, and she said that it was for his happiness. The fragrance of tea was everywhere, wasn't she just forcing him to confess?
How can she face him anymore!
"What should I do now? Is there...is there any way to save the situation?" Kanda Kanon was so anxious that she rolled on the ground several times.
"That's right! Even though it's unreliable, maybe there's a way in it that can make him dislike me!"
Kanda Kanon jumped up from the ground, grabbed the book and started looking for the part corresponding to the current timeline.
But... when I turned to the corresponding part, the page was blank.
Kanda Kanon's mind also went blank.
No, where are the words?
I flipped through the pages in disbelief, and found that the current timeline, which originally only had a few pages, had large blank spaces.
All content related to the astral plasma incident was erased, and even other content became unclear.
Just like an eraser had erased pencil writing, all the remaining content in the book concerning Gojo Satoru's high school period appeared double.
She could no longer recognize what was on it.
God wants to kill me——
Kanda Kanon was completely dumbfounded.
