Chapter 9: Why is Brown Sugar Pearl Milk Tea at the Volleyball Court Again?
Akina Amane had no idea what had happened to the two brothers again. She was simply organizing the materials in her hands, preparing to start her afternoon classes.
A classmate she didn't recognize came up to her and asked, "Excuse me, Tianhui, have you been getting along well with the volleyball club lately?"
She seemed to be inquiring about the romantic relationships within the volleyball team.
Akina Amane nodded readily: "Yes, because I need their help, so I've been in contact with them more lately."
That statement isn't exactly a lie.
"In that case, please give this love letter to Yuu-san for me." She bowed and then handed a letter to Akina Amaho.
Before Amaho Akina could even refuse her, she had already run away.
Akina Ameho opened her mouth, somewhat confused.
Shouldn't the love letter be delivered by the person sending it? Why make someone else deliver it for them?
She still tucked the love letter inside the drawing board, planning to hand it to Gong You after school, but preferably before he walked into the volleyball club.
Because she is self-aware, she would feel embarrassed to go and watch the volleyball team again today.
Naturally, she was too embarrassed to go directly to the volleyball club to find Miya Yu just for this matter.
The school bell rang, and she put her drawing board back into her desk and began to listen attentively to the lesson.
-
After school.
Akina Amane began packing her things, still thinking about the love letter tucked inside her sketchbook, her heart heavy as she considered finding a chance to hand it over as soon as possible.
Then tell Gong You that someone gave it to him, and then he can leave smoothly without having to do any more social activities.
But when she picked up her handbag, she saw Miyako and Miyaji standing outside the classroom door.
Why are these two here again?
Despite her doubts, she took out the pink love letter without any qualms, and handed it to Gong You as she walked out the door with her bag.
Gong You suddenly widened his eyes, while Gong Zhi narrowed his eyes slightly.
He wasn't mistaken, was he? A pink envelope. Could Tian Sui really be handing him a love letter?
Her heart was racing without her even realizing it. Although Gong You didn't know why she was so excited, even though she had received quite a few love letters before.
Of course, because he felt that romance was completely useless to him, he rejected them all.
"Ah, this letter was asked to be given to you by a girl in my class."
Seemingly realizing that handing it out without saying anything would cause a misunderstanding, Akina Amatsu belatedly offered an explanation.
She didn't want these two people to mistakenly think she liked either of them.
Miyaji slowly exhaled, his tense nerves relaxing, while Miyayu's eyes dimmed slightly, though he himself might not have noticed it.
Oh, it's another girl.
He curled his lip: "Tian Sui doesn't need to give me this kind of thing, just throw it away."
He wouldn't read them carefully anyway, because there were some letters he couldn't understand at all, and after a while he would get annoyed when he received these kinds of letters again.
Even if it were handed to him, he would turn around and find a place where no one could see him to throw the letter away.
Anyway, the other party already got the answer before he even responded.
Akina Tensui frowned, her eyes showing disapproval: "This is someone else's kind gesture, how can you just throw it away?"
She tucked the pink envelope back into the drawing board.
“In that case, I will return this letter to her tomorrow and tell her that Gong You refuses to accept it.”
Well, although it might be misunderstood as her not sending the letter or anything.
However, there are quite a few misunderstandings about her.
"That's just his personality, Tian Sui, you don't need to pay attention to what he says."
Miyaji pulled a pink envelope with a corner sticking out from Amaho Akina's drawing board and then roughly shoved it into Miyayu's hand.
"I won't cause any more trouble for Tianhui."
He slightly curled his lips into a smile.
Hmm, it seems that Yu's appearance has lowered Amaho Akina's favorability again.
“I didn’t mean to disregard other people’s feelings… I just,” Gong You waved his hand, still wanting to explain.
However, Akina Amaho ignored him and walked past him, and Yuu Miya quickly followed behind.
What he meant was that he just felt those people didn't need to waste their time writing him love letters anymore; they could have done so much better with that time.
Although he was vaguely aware that his actions were sometimes terrible, he didn't care.
Even if others dislike him, what does it matter? Of course, he welcomes pure liking and praise, which is also a kind of encouragement for Gong You.
Therefore, Gong You finds it hard to understand why some people would pour all their heart and soul into such unfounded feelings.
You'd be better off using that time to practice volleyball!
He walked behind, quietly unfolding the love letter, intending to take a look.
Before she knew it, Akina Amaho followed the two of them to the volleyball club again.
She stopped abruptly outside the volleyball hall, her brows furrowing slightly.
Should I go to the volleyball club to watch today?
She pointed to herself, her tone still a little confused.
Akina Amane felt that she should be grateful to Captain Kita for being able to observe yesterday.
Didn't you see other girls who wanted to watch weren't allowed into the volleyball court either? There were so many empty seats up there, which were supposed to be the spectator stands.
"Of course you are welcome to come and watch, but we are just having a regular training session today."
Miyaji stood behind Amaho Akina, gesturing for her to go inside.
“Okay, then I…” She took a deep breath, still a little hesitant about whether she could go in directly.
She didn't want to stand there and waste their training time.
"Tian Sui, just go in." Gong You switched to that slightly sticky tone again.
It's a Kansai dialect, so it always sounds a bit sticky and muggy. More importantly, Miyau deliberately uses this kind of voice when he speaks.
Akina rubbed her ears and glared at Yuu Miyako.
Okay, she wasn't angry anymore. She knew that Gong You had a somewhat annoying and annoying personality.
Although only occasionally, she found the twins' behavior somewhat endearing.
So Akina Amaho walked into the volleyball hall.
Kita Shinsuke also saw them and waved to Amaho Akina.
Akina Amane walked in that direction, glancing around casually. It seemed to be where the members were resting, and she felt a little awkward.
However, the view here is clearly better than from the corner.
She casually found a spot to sit down, holding a drawing board in her hand, and looked up at the center of the volleyball court.
The first person she saw was Miyaji, who seemed to be doing some kind of catching practice today. From a distance, she couldn't quite make out the changes in their arm muscles.
Akina Amane pondered for a second, thinking that she could probably get a better view if she went to the west side of the volleyball court.
But she didn't want to change her position for the time being, so she reluctantly looked at Gong You.
Well, she had to admit that the smiling blond boy cheering on the field did indeed rekindle her urge to paint.
After all, Gong You looked radiant at that moment, completely absorbed in the exercise.
After all, it was also her wish to preserve the beautiful scene.
She followed her own ideas and drew his smiling face; it was a draft of a half-length portrait.
Kita Shinsuke also witnessed Akina Amaho painting.
"Yu does look quite eye-catching, doesn't she?"
When Akina Amaho looked up, she saw Shinsuke Kita looking at her with a faint smile.
She didn't understand, but simply nodded.
"indeed."
"It's alright, you can continue drawing." Kita Shinsuke turned his head and looked back at the field.
Akina Amane thought for a while, then continued sketching with a pencil, completing the draft she had just made.
This is a relatively complete sketch.
She planned to give the painting to Gong You, since he had provided most of her inspiration these past two days, and it was only right that she should give back to him.
She put down the manuscript and hastily sketched Gong Zhi's figure on another piece of paper.
Akina Ama closed one eye, made a viewfinder with both hands, looked at Miyaji, and then picked up a pencil to measure the proportions.
Hmm, I roughly know how to draw it next.
Miyaji's figure was only presented on the drawing board as a draft, but in the next drawing, Akina Amako still subconsciously looked at Yu Miyako, and the pen in her hand unconsciously sketched Yu Miyako's figure again.
Miyako seemed to have noticed Akina Amaho's focused gaze and even smiled in her direction.
However, this smile went unnoticed by Akina Amami.
After a whistle was blown, Akina Amaho suddenly woke up.
When she came to her senses, she realized that she had unknowingly completed another full sketch of Gong You, this time depicting him jumping high to serve the ball.
He still had a smile on his face.
Akina Amane couldn't help but feel a little guilty. Even though she didn't really like this guy, she had to admit that Yuu Miyabi was a good model who provided her with a lot of material.
When she looked up again, she found that Miyaji and Miyayu were walking towards her.
Akina then realized that she was sitting in the members' rest area, and the coach was further away, although the coach didn't say anything to her.
But she couldn't help feeling a little guilty.
Looking around, Akina Amane decided to move to the corner she had been using yesterday.
Just as she stood up and turned to walk towards the corner, two voices came from behind her.
"Tian Sui, where are you going? Could you please hand me your water glass and towel?" It was Gong You's voice.
“It’s alright to continue sitting here, Amaho-kun.” That was Miyaji’s voice.
Akina Amane turned around stiffly, sighed, and glanced at the water glass that was placed not far away.
These two people could have easily taken it themselves.
But she still took a few steps over, picked up both bottles, and handed them to the twins equally.
"Oh, and the towel that's on the side, thank you for that too!" Gong You took the water glass, but didn't drink it right away.
Instead, he made a new request with a smile on his face.
Akina Amako sighed again and handed the towels to the two people.
"By the way, could you help me? It's not very convenient for me to carry the water cup."
Miya Yu held a towel in her left hand and gestured towards Amaho Akina.
Amane Akina looked slightly disgusted and took a step back: "No, you can drink the water first and then wipe your sweat."
She had no desire to get close to the athletic boy who was sweating profusely after exercising, especially since they weren't very familiar with each other.
"Alright." Gong You shrugged, not showing much regret.
Miyaji remained silent for a while, then suddenly glanced at Amaho Akina.
"By the way, did you enjoy drawing today, Tianhui?"
Since it was just a regular training session today, Miyaji decided to check on Akina Amaho's condition.
Akina Amako's expression stiffened for a moment.
She suddenly felt a little embarrassed to say that she planned to give her painting to Gong You today.
Well, it's because Gong You kept insisting on having it.
Gong You's curiosity was piqued by this, and he leaned closer: "I want to know too! Tian Sui, show it to us!"
Okay, we have to show it off to people eventually.
Taking a deep breath, Akina Amaho opened the folder and pulled out three sheets of manuscript paper.
