Living in Tokyo, starting with a lifestyle-related job

"There's still no solution?"

"Isn't this all your fault for being indecisive?"

Bai Feng retorted irritably:

Where did I become indecisive?

"Haven't I been refusing this offer all along?"

"But they're still like this, what can I do?"

Erina Kamishiro paused, and although she knew that Bai Feng had genuinely been rejecting other girls' requests to go on dates with him throughout this whole affair, she still muttered to herself, somewhat defiantly:

"It's just indecisiveness!"

"Hina-senpai is only confessing to you now, so I can still keep quiet about it."

"But it's definitely Rika's side. If you had firmly said you didn't like her when you rejected her in the first place, how could this have happened?"

Kamdai Bai Feng complained:

"That was a long time ago."

"And didn't I refuse back then too?"

"How am I being indecisive?"

Erina Kamishiro retorted:

"Didn't you promise Rika that she would be the first girlfriend you'd consider?"

Isn't this it?

Kamishiro Shiro coughed twice and retorted:

"Indecisiveness means being hesitant, unable to make a choice, and only able to let things slide."

"That's not it!"

"Besides, it was Pear Blossom who said that, not me."

Erina Kamishiro gritted her teeth and complained:

"Anyway, you didn't refuse clearly, you gave them a chance, didn't you?"

"If we hadn't been given a chance, how could this have happened?"

The god Bai Feng said helplessly:

How could I have known this would happen?

Listening to their conversation, Ayaka Sato was certain that it was true.

She didn't know why, but she felt a little sour inside.

Bai Feng already has a girlfriend, which is fine.

But surprisingly, two girls were willing to offend his girlfriend and say they wanted to steal Bai Feng away in front of them.

This would have been a huge shock when she was in high school.

However, Bai Feng is now so outstanding, with excellent grades, a very famous novelist, and such good looks.

It's actually quite normal for so many girls to like you at the same time.

Ayaka Sato simply hadn't expected that the two girls would like him to this extent.

Not a moment.

Bai Feng prepared a late-night snack and placed it on the dining table. He then complained to Erina Kamishiro, who was still clinging to him like an octopus:

"The midnight snack is ready, come down quickly."

Erina Kamishiro muttered to herself:

"You haven't apologized to me yet, I'm not going down."

Bai Feng ignored her.

"If you don't want to play, then forget it."

"I'm going to take a shower later. If you're so capable, then keep lying on top of me."

Erina blushed slightly, but still stubbornly insisted:

"Go ahead and do it if you dare, who's afraid of who?"

The god Bai Feng said cheerfully:

"You said it yourself, once we're inside, whoever tries to run away is a little dog."

Erina remained stubborn as ever, retorting:

"Whoever runs is a little dog!"

Seeing the two of them like this, Ayaka Sato also spoke up to offer some advice:

"OK OK."

"You two are sworn siblings, you can't go in to bathe together!"

"Besides, it's just a pat on the head, there's no need to do that."

"Let's listen to Auntie and compromise."

Erina Kamishiro shook her head and said:

"do not want!"

Shiro Kaede hadn't expected Erina to dislike him touching her head so much. Now that his aunt had said so, he didn't intend to argue any further and said helplessly:

"I won't touch your head anymore."

"Okay?"

"Come down quickly."

Erina Kamishiro was stunned, not expecting Bai Feng to say that he would never touch her head again, and immediately felt very aggrieved.

Her eyes visibly reddened quickly, and then she burst into tears.

"Waaaaah~ Bai Feng, you idiot!"

Sato Ayaka was a little confused. She didn't expect that even though Bai Feng said he wouldn't keep touching Erina's head, Erina would still cry.

What's happening here?

Shiro Shiro was also somewhat dumbfounded.

"You said touching your head would make you grow taller and you got angry, but now that I'm saying I won't touch it anymore, why are you crying?"

Erina, her eyes blurred with tears, cried out:

"Waaaaah~ You idiot! You don't understand anything at all!"

Kamishiro Shiro sighed helplessly and pulled Erina from behind into his arms.

Because Erina was crying so hard, he surprisingly found it easy to pull her onto his lap.

Bai Feng wiped away her tears with a tissue and patiently asked:

Why did you suddenly start crying?

"How am I supposed to understand if you don't explain it clearly?"

Although Erina did not resist Bai Feng's embrace, she did not answer his question and continued to wail.

Looking at her like this, Shiro Kaede couldn't understand why she was crying so hard.

She never acted like this when we used to argue.

But after thinking about it, it wasn't hard to guess why she was crying.

Erina started crying after he told her not to touch her head.

He felt that this must be the reason.

Could it be that Erina doesn't dislike him touching her head?

Otherwise, why would she cry upon hearing her own words?

It's worth noting that Erina usually likes to act cute and affectionate.

She often acts coquettishly towards her aunt, especially every day.

Could it be that letting her touch her head is also a way for her to act cute?

But if she didn't mind him touching her head, why was she so unhappy in the first place?

Don't understand

Kamishiro Hakufu really couldn't understand it.

He tentatively rubbed Erina's head, trying to see if she was just being affectionate, and then tried to comfort her:

"Okay, okay, I was just kidding."

"Your head feels so nice to touch, how could I not rub it?"

After hearing this, Erina's crying subsided, but she was still tearful, pouting and choking back sobs, and even pushed Bai Feng's hand away in a fit of pique.

"Waaaaah~ Your head feels so comfortable to touch!"

Seeing this, Bai Feng finally realized that this was the reason.

But seeing Erina crying with snot running down her face, he couldn't help but smile, then took a tissue to wipe her nose and comforted her.

As Erina listened to Bai Feng's comforting words, her mood gradually improved.

She didn't even resist him continuing to pat her head; she just pouted and lay silently in his arms, not saying a word.

Seeing that she was just trying to act cute, Shiro Kaede felt relieved.

He thought to himself that Erina was, after all, just a high school student who was about sixteen years old.

It's normal for someone who has just graduated from junior high school to like to act spoiled and have a rebellious streak at this age.

But after comforting her for so long, that's about enough.
