There was nothing they could do; all three of them were celebrities at school.
Ayako goes without saying; she's the undisputed number one beauty, the perfect goddess in the hearts of all the boys in the school.
Kitagawa Yu became a figure of both strength and fame because of his two world-class powerful shots in physical education class and his feat of defeating Kamiki Daisuke in a single move during a karate club activity.
As for Shimizu Yuna, she's also the most beautiful girl in the whole school!
Most importantly, the love triangle between Shimizu Yuna, Majima Koji, and Ayumi was practically common knowledge at school.
It's shocking that Shimizu Yuna is having lunch with Kitagawa Yu, even though Ayako is also there. They may not be in a romantic relationship, but it's still quite astonishing.
"Oh right! It seems like Gao Yuan didn't have lunch with Kitagawa today!"
"Has Gaoyuan lost to Shimizu again, turning a love triangle into a love quadrangle?"
"No, no, if Shimizu really falls for Kitagawa, and Kitagawa falls for Ayako, wouldn't that be a five-way relationship?"
"."
Soon, all sorts of speculations and discussions about this incident arose at the school, and the buzz surrounding it was even greater than that of campus ghost stories.
And all of this was exactly what Kitagawa Yu had anticipated.
To his surprise, Ayumi, Chihiro, and Kiku were also in the restaurant, and not far from where they were sitting. At least the few tables in between did not obstruct their view.
"Didn't Ayumi bring a lunchbox?" Kitagawa Yu wondered.
He knew that Ayumi had brought a lunchbox. On their way to school that morning, she was showing off her special tamagoyaki (Japanese rolled omelet) recipe, saying that the new meat sauce would make it even tastier.
So he assumed Ayumi stayed in the classroom or went somewhere else to eat her lunch.
On the other side, Ayumi also didn't expect to see Kitagawa Yu at the restaurant. When she saw Shimizu Yuna sitting next to Kitagawa Yu, she was struck dumb, her whole body trembled, she lowered her head, and her face turned pale.
"Huh? Ayumi, what's wrong?"
Chihiro Ono and Kiku Hinazuki, who were cooking and continuing to instill in Ayumi the ideas that "it's okay to lose" and "there are plenty of good guys out there," quickly noticed her unusual behavior. Then, their gazes swept over her and they also saw Yu Kitagawa, Ayako, and Yuna Shimizu not far away.
Then the two of them instantly lost their temper.
"Shimizu Yuna?!"
"How come that guy is sitting with Kitagawa-kun?!"
Ayako aside, strictly speaking, it was Ayako who first took a liking to Kitagawa Yu; Ayumi was just a latecomer in front of Ayako.
Moreover, the top-ranked beauty in the entire school, who is also a wealthy heiress, actually took the initiative to deliver a lunchbox to Kitagawa Yu, which left them speechless.
What's going on with Shimizu Yuna?
"Is this guy addicted to stealing other people's boyfriends?"
Chihiro Ono frowned in displeasure and slammed her hand on the table, looking as if she was about to run over and beat up Yuna Shimizu, which startled Ayumi, who quickly reached out and grabbed her.
Clearly, because of Ayumi, both of them had a very bad impression of Shimizu Yuna.
Upon hearing this, Ayumi shook her head vigorously and took the initiative to defend Shimizu Yuna.
"No, this has nothing to do with Shimizu-kun, it's all my own fault."
"But--"
Chihiro Ono wanted to say something, but when she turned her head and saw the pleading look in Ayumi's eyes, she sighed deeply, picked up her chopsticks again, and continued eating in silence.
"Fine, fine, let it be! This is fine too, since Ayumi can't compete with Ayako Asuka anyway, let Shimizu Yuna compete with her!"
For a moment, all three of them fell silent.
Meanwhile, Ayako and Shimizu Yuna also saw Ayumi and the other two, but under Kitagawa Yu's deliberate control, the atmosphere seemed much better, at least on the surface.
However, Kitagawa Yu did not linger in the restaurant for too long. After lunch, he returned to the classroom and continued to explain the art style and details of Demon Slayer to Shimizu Yuna.
Ayako's doubts have been answered—the reason why Kitagawa Yu and Shimizu Yuna are so close is because they both love manga and are preparing to create a manga together. Kitagawa Yu has also written three songs for Shimizu Yuna that are suitable for her.
But she always felt that Kitagawa Yu was secretly hiding something, and that their relationship was probably more than just what Kitagawa Yu said.
"What is my senior hiding from me?"
Ayako wasn't angry about it; she was just very curious because she believed that Kitagawa Yu must have had a reason for doing it.
The clever girl did not press Kitagawa Yu any further.
Even though she felt a strong threat from Shimizu Yuna and knew that this opponent's strength was likely above that of Ayumi and Chizuka, she did not show any hostility towards Shimizu Yuna. Instead, she took the initiative to show her goodwill.
"Senior, I'll head back now. When Yuna-senpai records her song, be sure to come to our company's recording studio! I'm really looking forward to your new song!"
Ayako said with a sweet smile, a smile that made Shimizu Yuna, who had been feeling somewhat inferior in front of her, unconsciously relax. The thought that 'As expected, only Ayako-senpai is worthy of Yu' popped into her mind again.
If you like someone, you should trust them. Random suspicion will only hurt both of you and completely destroy the relationship.
Ayako believed that Kitagawa Yu, whom she loved, would never hurt her even if he lied.
So when Yukiko approached her and asked if she needed to investigate Shimizu Yuna and Kitagawa Yu more thoroughly, she refused without hesitation.
"If you're really that kind, could you please forgive my 100 million yen debt?" Ayako glared at Yukiko, annoyed.
Yukiko tilted her head and glanced at her, then completely felt relieved.
"Oh dear, do you really have so little faith in Yu? I have complete confidence in Yu's talent!"
"."
Ayako clenched her fists immediately, and even the lines on her forehead appeared.
If she weren't outmatched by Yukiko, she would have already punched that sweet and adorable face with the playful smile on her lips, leaving it bruised and swollen.
"As expected! This guy is the biggest threat!!!" Ayako thought angrily to herself.

Chapter 104 Account Cancellation
"Sorry, the county competition preliminary rounds are about to start, and the department requires extra training, so I won't be going to tutoring tonight."
As school let out in the afternoon, the sky grew increasingly gloomy. Thick, dark clouds resembled an endless mountain range, pressing down on people and making it hard to breathe. A gentle breeze blew, bringing a chilly atmosphere. Yellowed leaves fell in the autumn wind, as if foreshadowing something.
Kitagawa Yu's eyes darkened as he looked at the message he had just received from Ayumi on his phone, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad.
However, he quickly regained his spirits and turned to look at Shimizu Yuna.
Do you have any club activities to attend today?
Yuna Shimizu shook her head: "When I used to draw those comics, I borrowed tools from a classmate who liked to draw comics, so I had to buy paper and drawing tools first."
"Then I'll go with you! Let me think. Akihabara is too far. How about we go to Itoya or Tsutaya Bookstore? We can definitely buy a complete set of art supplies and drawing paper there."
Shimizu Yuna bit her lip lightly, a hint of joy flashing involuntarily in her eyes.
She was naturally happy to be able to browse bookstores and stationery stores with someone she liked and then go home together, but...
"But Ayumi-san—"
"It's alright, and besides, Ayumi likes Majima so much, she should be happy right now~"
Shimizu Yuna hesitated for a moment, then said nothing more.
Based on her girlish intuition, she could sense that Kitagawa Yu probably had feelings for Ayumi, or even liked her a little. However, she also knew how much Ayumi liked Majima Koji back then.
Most importantly, in her opinion, Ayako was a better match for Kitagawa Yu.
Taking a deep breath, Shimizu Yuna's face regained its sweet, energetic smile, and she took the initiative to change the subject.
"Let's hurry up and get going! I can't wait to finish drawing Demon Slayer! Heh heh, I'm going to finish the first three chapters in the next two weeks, and then I'll show them to that editor from back then, and let her see if I really have the talent to be a manga artist!"
Kitagawa Yu couldn't help but chuckle upon hearing this.
"Two weeks and three sessions? You're not working or taking tutoring anymore?"
Although he didn't need to think about the plot or storyboards at all, he had even thought of the characters' lines.
To achieve a pace of three chapters every two weeks, or an average of four or five pages per day, even with advanced comic book skills, it would require at least five or six hours of work per day.
Yuna Shimizu's manga drawing skills are probably above average, and it definitely takes her more time, at least eight hours.
Although I can get out of school at 3:30 pm every day without participating in club activities, and I can also use my lunch break, if I draw for eight hours, I'll probably be drawing until one or two o'clock in the morning, right?
"My recent grades have been pretty good, so I can skip tutoring for now. As for work..."
Shimizu Yuna took out her phone, unlocked the screen, opened the app and went to her profile page, then held the phone in front of Kitagawa Yu.
After seeing what was on the screen, Kitagawa Yu couldn't help but show a look of surprise.
"Cancelled? Time: 23:34 PM on the 23rd. You cancelled it as soon as you got back that day? You're not planning to do this job anymore?"
“Mm,” Shimizu Yuna put her phone away and nodded gently.
“I always thought I was doing the right thing and helping my mother, but I realized that day that I was being too willful.”
“Although a regular job pays less, at least I don’t have to worry her about me anymore, so I just deleted the account,” Shimizu Yuna explained with a smile.
At the same time, she silently said in her heart, "And you, I don't want you to worry about me either, even just a little bit. Besides, I already have someone I like, and I can no longer continue doing that kind of work."
Kitagawa Yu looked into her eyes.
Despite not possessing mind-reading abilities, he suddenly understood Shimizu Yuna's feelings from her pure, sky-like smile and eyes. The softest part of his heart was involuntarily touched, and his gaze softened even more.
"Even so, finishing three episodes in two weeks is too much. Don't forget you also have three songs to record this weekend~"
Kitagawa Yu smiled and patted her head. Under the astonished and gossipy gazes of the onlookers, he and Shimizu Yuna left the school chatting and laughing.
"Oh my god! Not only do they eat lunch together during lunch break, but they also walk home together after school?! Could it be that Kitagawa-san and Shimizu-san are really dating?"
"Damn it! Why Shimizu-san?! She's my goddess!"
"Huh? Isn't your goddess Ayako-kun?"
"."
"So both of your goddesses, before and after, were so close to Kitagawa-kun—"
"Nisnei!!!"
The rain didn't come after all. Instead, at dusk, the sunset broke through the clouds, bringing light back to the world and creating a strange picture that was half fiery red and half gray.
"Hello, the total is 7325 yen."
