Jiangchuan stared into Nakajima Rie's eyes. If it weren't for the joking tone, he would have thought that his true identity had been guessed.
As expected, no matter what era they are from, fortune tellers are a group of people that people don’t want to deal with. They have a very strong sixth sense, are good at observation, and some of them like to play tricks and be cunning.
Yingjing Tong glanced at Jiang Chuanhai. If this guy was a monster, she would have defeated him immediately to avoid making her angry. But unfortunately, she lived with the hateful guy and knew very well that he was just a sinister and hateful villain.
Nakajima Rie had made a joke, and she smiled awkwardly, "How could Mr. Jiangchuan be a monster? He's more like a monster exorcist."
…
After drinking a cup of tea, Nakajima Rie added more hot tea for them, and then they chatted about some other things casually, and the bell for the end of the club rang.
The four of them cleaned up the activity room, picked up their bags, and left the club building together, following the crowd out of the school.
but.
They had just walked halfway when a stumbling voice suddenly rang out, "I...I, Ibuki-san, I have something to tell you."
They couldn't help but stop and look in the direction of the voice. Jiangchuan was slightly surprised because the person who spoke was none other than his neighbor, Sato Hiroki.
Hiroki Sato's face turned slightly red, he looked embarrassed and his expression changed. When he saw them looking at him, he became even more nervous, and then he looked at Ibuki Akiko expectantly.
Jiang Chuan probably knew what was going on. He smiled in his heart. He just wanted to apologize for his nonsense yesterday. There was no need to act like he was on a battlefield. He could just say it out loud.
"Akiko, Egawa-san, Sakurai-san and I will be waiting for you over there."
Hiroki Sato was obviously looking for her good friend. Rie Nakajima left space for the two to talk. She did not act as a third wheel and took Kai Egawa and Toru Sakurai to a distance so as not to disturb their conversation.
Jiangchuan and Sakurai Tong had no objection, and together with Nakajima Rie, the three of them walked a little further away and waited.
but……
Although it seemed far away in the eyes of ordinary people, he and Sakurai Tou could still hear the voices of Sato Hiroki and Ibuki Akiko.
Hiroki Sato was really determined. He had not forgotten what Jiangchuan had said to him in the morning and at noon - just say it out loud.
He did not participate in club activities today. Instead, since school was over, Sato Hiroki has been waiting on the only way to the outside of the private Qingcheng campus. He was afraid that he might miss Ibuki Akiko at any time. If that happens, he doesn't know when he will be able to muster up the courage again.
After Egawa Kai, Nakajima Rie, and Sakurai Tou left, he and Ibuki Akiko were standing on the roadside, which was not a good place for what he wanted to say next. Sato Hiroki invited, "Ibuki-san, can we go over to the cherry blossom tree?"
Ibuki Akiko hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay."
The cherry blossom season in Tokyo is around mid-March, but now at the end of May, they have already fallen, leaving only the lush green leaves to represent summer.
Hiroki Sato and Akiko Ibuki came under the cherry tree. After making sure that there was no one here, he looked at the goddess he had always secretly loved again.
The more he hesitated, the harder it became to speak. Sato Hiroki took a deep breath and apologized for confessing without considering the occasion yesterday. He bowed sharply and said, "I'm sorry, Ibuki-san. I confessed too suddenly yesterday. I'm very sorry for causing you trouble."
"It doesn't matter."
Ibuki Akiko held her bag in front of her with both hands and accepted the apology.
Yesterday morning, Hiroki Sato confessed to her in the classroom, and she became the focus of discussion among other students. Although Akiko Ibuki did not say anything about it, she was a little unhappy about it.
Sato Hiroki leaned forward with a look of joy on his face. Ibuki Akiko had indeed forgiven him. What Egawa-san said was right. The person he liked was not angry and didn't care about what happened yesterday.
Originally, Hiroki Sato was thinking that if Ibuki Akiko didn't forgive him, he would stop what he was about to say next, but now it seems that he doesn't need to worry at all.
Sato Hiroki raised his body and looked into Ibuki Akiko's eyes. He confessed generously, seriously and sincerely: "Ibuki-san, I like you, please date me!"
Ibuki Akiko had no idea what Sato Hiroki was up to. He had just apologized and confessed his love to her. She frowned slightly and looked at the man in front of her with some annoyance. After a long silence, she said, "Sato-san, I'm sorry, I don't have any plans to fall in love right now."
The atmosphere was a little awkward.
Seeing that Sato Hiroki was silent, Ibuki wanted to leave. She bowed her head slightly and apologized, "If Sato-san doesn't have anything else to do, Rie, Egawa-san, and Sakurai-san are waiting for me, so I'll leave first."
"etc."
Sato Hiroki shouted subconsciously, and he explained in a panic, "Ibuki-san, I know my confession is very presumptuous, but I really like you. My heart has been beating fast since I met you on the first day of school."
As Sato Hiroki spoke, he recalled that morning - everything was new to him when he first entered high school. When he looked around the classroom where he would be staying for a year, Sato Hiroki discovered a beautiful girl who seemed to be covered with a layer of holy light under the sunlight shining through the window. She was sacred and beautiful, and made his heart beat faster like an angel.
Maybe this was love at first sight. From that day on, an unforgettable figure appeared in Sato Hiroki's mind.
Ibuki Akiko's two rejections were very direct. She felt that Sato Hiroki should have known better, but he continued to pester her. She had no choice but to say it frankly with a serious face, "Sato-san, let me put it this way, you are not my type. I'm sorry, I can only reject you. There is no possibility between us."
What! ?
Hiroki Sato stood there in disbelief, he was completely dumbfounded. He had thought that Ibuki Akiko would reject him, but he never thought that the rejection would be so unconditional.
Hiroki Sato is actually quite confident about his appearance. He is not ugly. He is one of the most handsome guys in the class and even in the entire grade. He has a melon-shaped face and regular features. Although he is not as handsome as Kai Jiangchuan, who makes people like him at first sight, he is definitely not bad.
Being handsome is one thing, and Jiang Chuan-san's guidance and encouragement, which made a lot of sense, made him feel that he should have a chance.
only.
Reality gave him a wake-up call. Sato Hiroki stared blankly at Ibuki Akiko as she apologized to him again, then turned around and left without looking back and disappeared from his sight. He finally couldn't control his emotions anymore.
No! ! ! !
Hiroki Sato knelt under the cherry tree in pain, holding his head and unable to accept the result. A cold wind blew through the overcast sky at the end of May, and he felt a hint of chill like the snow in late winter.
This summer ended for him before it even began. It was his lost love and youth. Sato Hiroki was extremely sad, knowing that it would never come back.
I want to cry.
Going home.
