Tentacle Monster Conquest Manual

After saying that, the sour taste came up again, "You've only been here for two days and you already have so many love letters. Xiaoxiao, you're really popular."

Good heavens, it was a love letter? Mu Xiaoxiao exclaimed, "To be honest, I'm only now realizing how popular I am."

"...Feeling smug, huh? Hmph."

"Jealous?"

Mu Xiaoxiao put her arm around the girl's waist and gently stroked her slender, soft waist. "Little jealous pot."

"I'm not jealous, I'm just keeping an eye on you for Chizuka and the others... Ah, no... not here... Mmm~"

The students around them were stunned. These two were too bold!

Not far from the entrance, Kofukuji Ryūya, who had rushed in, lost his sparkle. He stared at the scene in disbelief, trembling all over.

"Apricot...why..."

Chapter 153 Childhood Sweethearts No Match for a Sudden Arrival

what is that?

When Kofukuji Takaya first saw it, he was stunned. He only noticed that a male and female student were hugging and kissing next to the shoe cabinet, which was really too bold. But when he looked closely and saw the familiar face imprinted on his retina, Kofukuji Takaya felt a chill run down his spine, trembled, and stood there dumbfounded.

He almost thought he was seeing things.

But... how could a childhood sweetheart who has been together for over a decade be mistaken?

pat-

The schoolbag fell from her hand, landing on the ground with a crisp sound. Anri? That's Anri, isn't it? But why is she with another boy... you bastard!!!

When Kofukuji Ryūya awoke from his daze, his eyes were bloodshot. When he saw his childhood friend of many years being embraced, kissed, and taken advantage of by other men, he was on the verge of madness. His blood was boiling and flames were rising to the top of his head.

Even Miss Liulichuan at the time didn't elicit such an exaggerated reaction from him.

"What are you doing to Anri?!"

Kofukuji Takaya, his eyes bloodshot, lunged forward, roaring, "Let Anri go right now!!!"

Mu Xiaoxiao separated from Si Chengxingli and dodged the hand that grabbed her from behind. When she saw the boy who suddenly appeared glaring at her fiercely, Mu Xiaoxiao was confused. What was he doing? Um... wasn't he Xingli's childhood friend?

The expression of a victim who has been cheated on, ugh, why do I feel like the villain?

Sicheng Xingli was so dazed by the kiss that she didn't notice her childhood sweetheart's appearance. Although she was embarrassed to kiss in public, she didn't feel any aversion to Mu Xiaoxiao's forceful and domineering kiss.

Their lips intertwined, and he gradually became immersed in Mu Xiaoxiao's skillful kissing technique until they were separated. He was suddenly startled and looked at the familiar person in front of him in surprise, "Longye?"

What's he doing here? Wait a minute, does that mean he saw everything just now?

"You bastard! What did you do to Anri?!" Seeing that it was Mu Xiaoxiao, Kofukuji Ryūya was even more furious. He hadn't even settled the score with Miss Rurikawa yet, and now he's gone after my childhood friend. This scumbag, does he want to steal all the girls around me?!

Upon realizing this, Kofukuji Ryuya instantly lost control of his emotions and lunged at Mu Xiaoxiao with a fist raised.

The latter did not dodge.

boom! !

hiss--

Even though it was his own fist that he threw, Kofukuji Takaya was jolted by the sharp pain in his hand and gasped for breath. So hard! But before he could think about it, Mu Xiaoxiao, who had been hit in the chest, screamed and flew backward, crashing into the shoe cabinet.

"oops--!"

Kofukuji Takaya: "???"

I was so amazing?

"Xiaoxiao! Xiaoxiao, are you alright?" Sicheng Xingli rushed to Mu Xiaoxiao's side in a panic, her concerned expression stunning Xingfuji Longye.

The silver-haired girl was also confused by her concern. After she helped Mu Xiaoxiao up by the shoulder, she realized that with Xiaoxiao's abilities, how could Longye have possibly hurt him? Even superpowers couldn't control Xiaoxiao, so... was he faking it?

"Xingli, it hurts so much," Mu Xiaoxiao said pitifully, clutching her chest and snuggling against the girl in her arms, looking shameless.

Xingli's amethyst eyes were fixed on him. Seeing this scoundrel making such a pitiful face, she felt both helpless and amused. Come to think of it, Mu Xiaoxiao was usually strong and domineering, so this submissive attitude was quite amusing.

Surprisingly cute.

"Anri, what are you doing?" For Kofukuji Takaya, his childhood friend's act of going to care for that bastard was undoubtedly a betrayal, a heavy blow. His eyes widened in disbelief, "He just did something to you—"

"enough!"

At this moment, Sicheng Xingli felt annoyed with her childhood friend. "This is between Xiaoxiao and me. What does it have to do with you? Besides, it was my own choice. Who told you to do it!"

"voluntary?"

Boom——

a bolt from the blue.

Wait a minute, Mu Xiaoxiao looked at the gloomy sky outside in surprise. It's really thundering? It's already November.

A scene reminiscent of an impending storm.

"Why?!" Kofukuji Takaya exploded. "Why did you get involved with this guy... You know he's with Rurikawa-san... and he has so many other women around him, he's a complete scumbag—"

"Shut up!" Hearing him slander Xiaoxiao like that, Xingli's eyes flashed with anger. "We're just childhood sweethearts, not lovers. You have no right to tell me what to do, and as for Xiaoxiao, you have no right to talk about her!"

If he's a scumbag, then what was that perverted teacher he encountered last time?

Kofukuji Takaya, as if meeting his childhood friend for the first time, took two shaky steps back. "Anri, so you mean you and him..."

The thought of losing his childhood sweetheart caused Kofukuji Takaya excruciating pain in his heart, as if he had lost a huge piece of his life, the most important thing in his life had left him, tormenting him to the point of despair.

"Isn't this a good thing? Maybe you'll have a chance to steal your ex-fiancée away."

This……

Kofukuji Takashi wasn't happy at all. He stared intently at the silver-haired beauty next to Mu Xiaoxiao, watching his childhood sweetheart, who was originally his, now embracing another boy, heartbroken. Only at this moment did he realize that Anri was more important to him than Rurikawa Tsubaki.

"Anri, compared to Miss Rurikawa, you...you are more important to me!"

Sicheng Xingli raised an eyebrow in surprise, but quickly regained her composure, her expression tinged with a hint of complexity. "It's a pity you're only saying this now. Why didn't you do this sooner?"

As more and more students gathered around to watch the show, Mu Xiaoxiao tugged at Si Chengxingli's sleeve, and the latter understood.

"You can take care of yourself."

------------

Tick-tick-tick——

The sky, which was clear in the morning, is now covered with dark clouds. The rain patters against the window, making a crisp, rhythmic sound. Si Chengxingli rests her face on her hand, twirling a pencil in her hand, lost in thought.

She was pondering a question: if Takashi had understood his own feelings sooner, perhaps they wouldn't have ended up together.

She wasn't blaming Kofukuji Ryuya, after all, her own tsundere attitude was part of the reason. But then again, even if Rurikawa hadn't existed, even if she had ended up with Ryuya, she would still have been toyed with by that pervert, Fukama Mitsurou.

The final outcome might be tragic.

“No, that’s not right. Given Xiao Xiao’s personality, he’ll still come to my rescue,” Si Cheng Xingli’s bright pink lips curved into a beautiful arc, and her delicate face blossomed into a radiant smile. “In that case, I will still be attracted to him.”

It felt like it was destined... This sense of fate filled Anri with joy and sweetness.

So it's actually better this way; at least we haven't let Ryuya down.

But... her dazzling purple eyes flickered, and she could feel a pair of eyes fixed on her from the very beginning, staring intently at her. It was the gaze of Kofukuji Ryūya, and it seemed he had no intention of giving up.

Sicheng Xingli had mixed feelings.

She would have been very happy in the past, but now... she doesn't feel anything, she just feels a little annoyed.

There was nothing she could do; she understood her own heart and realized she had completely fallen for someone else.

Childhood sweethearts, in the end, can't compete with someone who suddenly appears out of nowhere.

Chapter 154 Miko Yotsuya's Plea for Help

Kofukuji Ryūya's head was about to explode.

He didn't hear a single word of the bald teacher lecturing above. He remained motionless during the class, his eyes fixed on Sicheng Xingli, watching her back and her stunning profile.

I regret it, I really regret it.

If I hadn't been attracted to Rurikawa back then, and hadn't neglected Anri, whom I'd been with for so many years, because of Rurikawa, perhaps the ending would have been different? Perhaps Anri would have fallen into my arms?

The regret of missing each other was something that Xingfuji Takaya couldn't get over for a long time. But why did it have to be Mu Xiaoxiao? Why did Xingli fall in love with him? Xingli knew that he had so many women around him!

She was even a friend of Nishiki Chizuka, who was also part of that scumbag's harem!

Why choose him of all people?

Kofukuji Ryu couldn't understand it either. Something must have happened during this time, something I didn't know about, that made their relationship suddenly improve... But it was too late to dwell on it now.

His teeth were grinding together, his fists were clenched so tightly that the veins on his hands were bulging, he had no intention of giving up, nor did he want to give up.

He could let Miss Liulichuan go; he had no right to pursue her further. But Anri was not only his childhood friend but also his maid. He would not give up no matter what and would find a way to win her back!

Otherwise… he wouldn't accept it! He really wouldn't accept it!

Kofukuji Ryuuya secretly sent a message to Shiki Anri under the table on his phone. When she glanced at it and then shoved the phone back into the drawer without any intention of replying, his face turned bright red. He had finally waited for the end of get out of class, but he still hadn't gotten out of bed.

Xingli walked up to Mu Xiaoxiao and handed him a blue lunchbox.

Kofukuji Takaya saw it with his own eyes; Anri took that lunchbox out of her schoolbag!

convenient?

asshole! ! !

"The food inside was made by me this morning, so it shouldn't be completely cold yet," Si Cheng Xingli said apologetically, standing next to Mu Xiaoxiao. "Xiaoxiao, you don't mind, do you?"

“It’s okay, as long as it’s not overnight,” Mu Xiaoxiao accepted the girl’s kindness. Of course, he couldn’t refuse at this point, since he wasn’t a straight man. “A love-filled bento box, this is the first time I’ve ever received one.”

Meeting the boy's teasing smile, Si Chengxingli turned her head away, her cheeks flushed, "I'm glad you like it... I'll make it for you again tomorrow."

"Xiaoxiao, someone's looking for you outside," Chizuka Nishiki said as she walked over. "It's a pretty girl... Huh? A bento box?! Anri, you made this? That's so unfair, why didn't you make one for me?"

Chizuka hugged Anri's neck.

"Chizuka, didn't you have a bento box made by Rurikawa-kun?"

“That’s true… But Anri, you’re really amazing. You’ve surpassed Tsubaki in terms of bento boxes, otherwise Xiaoxiao wouldn’t have accepted it.”

These words made Sicheng Xingli very happy. After being praised by Mu Xiaoxiao yesterday, the girl was no longer so inferior in front of Liulichuan Chun. Instead, she wanted to compete with her, even though she was inferior to Chun in terms of status and charm.

But seeing how much Xiaoxiao liked the bento she made made her very happy.

"Who's looking for Xiaoxiao?" Si Chengxingli looked up at the classroom door and saw a strange girl with long blue hair. "Who is that person?"
