This demon is highly suspicious.

Whether it's leaving this world peacefully like Reiko, or...

"Oh, this is a ring."

"I know it's a ring."

Seeing Luo Xia instinctively withdraw his hand, but ultimately stop himself from doing so, Natsume Takashi seemed to understand something.

Although he himself doesn't pay much attention to or understand this kind of thing.

But he's still a high school student who knows how to use a cell phone.

In this era of constant bombardment of information, there are no truly pure people.

Anyone who uses a mobile phone will inevitably be exposed to some level of contamination.

"Well, to put it simply, I'm in a relationship, that's all."

Although it was somewhat shameful for Rorschach to say those words, since they had already established a relationship, he needed to acknowledge it.

The kind of thing that involves hiding things is the most disgusting.

Rorschach didn't want to become that kind of person.

After all, it's sad to think about becoming someone you used to despise and hate.

"That's it."

Nodding, Takashi Natsume indicated that he understood.

Although I was a little shocked at first, upon closer reflection, it seems to be a very normal thing.

After all, Rorschach and Gabriel had already shown signs of this when they returned to Tokyo before.

Moreover, according to Senior Lifelu, she was the one who facilitated the formation of these two.

It's not hard to understand why the two of them got together.

"To be honest, I'm suddenly feeling a lot of pressure."

"After that, I need to start working hard to earn and save money."

"Buying a house and a car costs a lot of money, including living expenses, utilities and so on."

"I have no idea what the underlying principles are for teaching children to speak."

"Just thinking about it makes me feel so troubled. Getting married really is a complicated thing."

He slumped onto the table like a deflated balloon, muttering and complaining incessantly.

They've only just started dating, but they're already considering teaching their child to speak.

I don't know whether to say this guy has a long-term vision or that he's worrying unnecessarily.

It's not fair to say that the two are completely unconnected.

It's safe to say that we're still far from there.

At the very least, we need to get past that level first, right?

We can only say that the task ahead is arduous and the road is long.

Although if Rorschach wanted to, he could get to home plate very quickly.

However, neither of them has such thoughts at the moment.

This is my first time dating, so I need to take it slow and enjoy the experience.

What's the point of starting a fast-paced, casual relationship?

I don't know when it started, but dating has become such a casual thing.

It seems that as long as someone is pleasing to the eye and not disliked, one can have a casual, fast-food relationship.

Dating is clearly a prelude to marriage, a process of getting to know and adjust to each other.

But nowadays, many people simply want to be in a relationship for the sake of being in a relationship.

They don't consider the future at all.

This is already considered good.

Some people fall in love...

Say nothing.

It's really just using the guise of romance.

The world is really strange.

"Luo Xia, you're thinking too far ahead."

To Luo Xia's rambling, Takashi Natsume could only offer an awkward yet polite smile.

Are you sure you're not bragging when you say this in front of someone like me, whose single lifespan equals my age?

And you're clearly each other's first love, right? It seems like you only started dating the day after you two got together?

How come you've already considered marriage and having children?

Even considering the long term, it shouldn't be this far ahead, right?

At least consider the honeymoon phase and dates that follow.

Is it possible...

Is it love-struck?

A word suddenly popped into Takashi Natsume's mind.

He had only learned this word by chance from someone else.

It basically means that when you're in a relationship, it's easy to get blinded by your partner's good points and even if they make a mistake, you'll actively find excuses to explain it away.

After being neglected, they will try to raise their favorability rating back up on their own, and may even engage in self-deception.

Well, that's how Takashi Natsume knows it anyway.

If there are any discrepancies, there's nothing that can be done, since he's never really paid much attention to topics like dating.

Luo Xia, you're not love-struck, are you?

Looking at Luo Xia's rather dim-witted appearance, Natsume Takashi suddenly felt a little uncertain.

Is it true that being in love makes a person stupid?

"what are you talking about?"

Just then, Gabriel walked over with her hands in her pockets.

Compared to her usual sleepy look, Gabrielle seemed much more energetic today.

This is understandable.

People who don't usually wear makeup or dress up suddenly start dressing up one day.

They must be in a relationship.

If one day you suddenly stop dressing up, it's definitely because you've broken up with your boyfriend.

"I'm considering marriage."

Luo Xia, who was lying on the table, sat up straight and said in a serious tone.

"what?"

Chapter 337 I will protect the purity of my innocent senior!

Soon, the rumor that Rorschach and Gabriel were getting married spread everywhere.

It all started when Iura Hide overheard Luo Xia saying, "I'm thinking about marriage."

Although I usually seem a bit carefree and even a little loud.

But this child is actually surprisingly thoughtful.

Upon hearing Luo Xia's words, and recalling their earlier conversation about meeting each other's parents, plus the obvious matching bracelets and rings they wore, it became clear that they were a couple.

Jing Pu shows him and realizes it.

"You two are getting married?!"

Terrified screams filled the classroom, and soon the whole class knew that Rorschach and Gabriel were getting married.

Then the class next door found out, and soon the whole school found out too.

It can only be said that rumors always spread the fastest.

Because this thing is fun.

Those who spread rumors don't care how the person involved feels.

Even if someone is hurt or even commits suicide because of the rumors, they will not be punished.

At worst, they'll just cry and say things like, "I didn't mean it, I didn't expect it to turn out like this," and other such nonsense.

After all, the law doesn't punish everyone, right? Can't we arrest everyone?

Of course, Hideki Iura himself did not have that intention.

This kid is just plain silly.

That was true, at least when we were in school.

"Hey, Tianzhen, have you and Luo Xia officially started dating?"

I don't know which group of girls excitedly gathered around Gabriel's table and whispered the question.

Although wabi is said to be speaking softly, people around can actually hear it.

Looking at this classmate whom she was completely unfamiliar with and whose name she didn't even know, Gabriel sighed silently.

Again.

This has been the case ever since that unlucky kid, Hideaki Iura, shouted that.

After all, it's human nature to be a gossipmonger.
