Chapter 494 A Person Skilled at Solving Trouble
In fact, the wrap-up work was completed much faster than Ishikawa Natsumi and her team had anticipated.

This proves the old saying: people with goals in their hearts have inexhaustible energy when striving towards them.

"So, are we really going to put on this so-called impromptu party?"

Watching everyone enthusiastically tidying up the venue, Ishikawa Natsumi, sitting on the floor, gently bit her thin lips and asked a question with slight hesitation.

She was the one who proposed this impromptu party. Theoretically speaking, she shouldn't have wavered or even wanted to back out before the party was about to start. What she should have done was to direct everyone to clean up the venue and get the impromptu party going as soon as possible.

In this way, the original rest time will not be affected.

Can……

She really did start to waver for no apparent reason.

"Wasn't this your idea?"

Sitting next to her, Mikawa Yui looked over with a puzzled expression.

To be honest, as the one who initiated the idea, shouldn't you be excited, thrilled, and looking forward to it?

“Yes, but I always feel like something’s not right.” Ishikawa Natsumi paused, then lowered her voice and whispered, “I’m afraid I’ll cause trouble.”

"What's so chaotic about this???"

Mikawa Yui frowned, her doubts deepening.

In her eyes, Xia Mei, the class monitor of Class C, was not an indecisive person. On the contrary, among all the class monitors in the second year of high school, Xia Mei was the most proactive.

In other words, a hesitant expression could appear on anyone's face, but it doesn't make sense for it to appear on Xia Mei's face.

"What if? I mean what if."

Natsumi Ishikawa looked towards the front of the classroom, her beautiful eyes reflecting the image of the boy from Class B who had previously made a promise with Kiriyama to confess his love in public.

"What if everyone gets too engrossed in the activity once it starts?"

She was genuinely afraid that if she were rejected, the originally joyful activity would suddenly turn into an unforgettable 'flavor of youth'.

She didn't know if others had similar feelings, but she did.

Back in junior high, she confessed her feelings to the boy she liked during the school festival, and unsurprisingly, things went wrong.

Just like Watanabe's earlier quip, life isn't a work of literature; there aren't that many dramatic moments. It's common for the person you like not to like you back.

"So what if we invest? What's the big deal?"

The confusion in Mikawa Yui's eyes deepened.

She couldn't understand the connection between the two things. Generally speaking, shouldn't the more involved the participants be in such activities, the better?

Why is Xia Mei now worried that everyone is getting too involved?

To put it bluntly, even if you put in the effort, what can you achieve? At best, it's just an activity between two classes, or more specifically, an activity decided on a whim.

“What I mean is…” Natsumi Ishikawa opened her mouth, her upper and lower teeth unconsciously touching, “If someone confesses and gets rejected, wouldn’t that ruin the atmosphere?”

If possible, she wouldn't want to be so blunt.

Unfortunately, Yui didn't understand her that well enough, and couldn't guess what she was thinking.

"That's part of youth too." Mikawa Yui frowned, looking at me as if to say, "Why are you so naive?" "Everyone who has ever confessed their feelings has experienced rejection, right?"

Of course, she didn't.

Because from elementary school until now, she has never been particularly interested in any boy.

Even with Watanabe Yu, she was only curious about why he knew so much.

"You make it sound so easy for you," Ishikawa Natsumi rolled her eyes. "That's easy for you to say when you're not the one experiencing it." Putting aside the fact that the one who gets rejected will have a very awkward position in the class, and will be completely blocked from participating in group activities.

Just putting herself in her shoes made her incredibly embarrassed.

That feeling of sitting on pins and needles was truly, truly unpleasant.

"I think you... are overthinking it."

Mikawa Yui hesitated for a moment, but still didn't say "too pretentious," instead choosing to rephrase it selectively.

"How come there are so many?"

"If you're talking about that impulsive confession, then I think it's really unnecessary."

Mikawa Yui naturally lowered her voice and spoke at a volume that only the two of them could hear.

“Everyone here is a high school student. They have some sense of what they want to do, unlike when they were in elementary or middle school, when they would just make decisions on a whim, especially in this kind of thing.”

Of all the people she'd ever seen, those who impulsively confessed their feelings to someone they liked were ultimately a minority.

Most confessions of love are made after people have spent some time together and confirmed that they have feelings for each other.

Or, to put it another way, even if you don't like someone, you should at least not dislike them.

In other words, most confessions are not impulsive, but rather a 'final move' driven by the subconscious. The difference is that success means the winner is MVP, while failure usually means a regretful exit.

"..."

Ishikawa Natsumi didn't respond, but instead lowered her eyes and began to reflect.

Perhaps, maybe, it seems, she really is overthinking things?

"To be frank, this kind of thing is not something outsiders can decide at all," Mikawa Yui continued. "Even without today's impromptu party, the person who is meant to confess will still confess; the only difference is the time."

If one opportunity is lost, then wait for the next one.

Even the most lovestruck person isn't stupid in this regard.

You can't say those things in a completely unromantic way, can you?
Blindly forcing things will only cause problems for yourself and make you a laughing stock.

She knew the boy in her class quite well; he was the kind of person who could read the room.

"Let's stall for as long as we can."

Natsumi Ishikawa muttered something.

She had already admitted in her heart that Yui was right, but she still wanted to stubbornly insist on it.

"Come on." Mikawa Yui, who saw through her thoughts, pouted and then patted her on the back. "Go ahead, organizing events is something I still need you to do."

As the class monitor of Class B, she has a clear self-awareness regarding her organizational skills.

She is indeed no match for Natsumi Ishikawa.

But...

She is still confident in her composure on certain issues.

"hai~"

Ishikawa Natsumi reluctantly stood up after being patted on the back. Then, as if remembering something, she looked towards Watanabe Yu.

then.

She gave a knowing smile.

She finds some problems agonizing, so she leaves them to Watanabe Yuu, who is good at solving problems!
