Shi Chen wasn't sure whether she wanted to keep it or keep it as a memento, she just hoped that she wouldn't show her disrespect in front of others in the future.

After all, although Thor helped him become a dragon knight, he also got the first blood, so his status was different.

But Thor is so innocent, there's probably nothing to worry about.

Without further thought, Shichen took a deep breath, composed himself, and returned to his usual self. He then took out his phone and texted Kasumigaoka Utaha to ask her to come pick him up.

I was supposed to bring her lunch today, but Thor's greed made me waste a lot of time.

Midway through, Kasumigaoka Utaha asked him what was going on, but Toki, who was lying still, had a free hand to reply that he was delayed by something and would be there in a while.

It was a little over an hour late, but thankfully it was still lunchtime.

A short while later, Kasumigaoka Utaha walked out of the teaching building and strolled towards the school gate, her expression naturally showing dissatisfaction.

Her tall figure and beautiful long, straight black hair immediately attracted the attention of students sitting by the windows in the teaching building as soon as she appeared on campus.

She's a big celebrity at this school.

Shichen didn't notice Kasumigaoka Utaha's displeased expression for the moment, but instead glanced at the furtive head by the window.

Without exception, they all had short hair.

Adolescent boys are at an age where they care about their appearance. They are confident yet shy. They want to look at pretty girls but dare not, and they are attracted to them but dare not take action.

But I couldn't help it.

This is the purest kind of infatuation, the most innocent kind of affection, but it is basically destined to be fruitless.

Someone followed the direction Kasumigaoka Utaha was walking and noticed Shichin standing at the door. Upon seeing his appearance, they immediately felt uneasy.

Boys don't feel inferior because of other men's good looks, but they are afraid that the opposite sex they like might have feelings for them.

Given the current situation, it's clear that Kasumigaoka Utaha is aiming for the right time.

Even they sensed how well-matched the two were in that instant, so anything was possible between them.

Despair instantly enveloped my heart, followed closely by the feeling of heartbreak.

"Oh no, it seems like Kasumigaoka-senpai has a boyfriend!"

"How could that be? Kasumigaoka has never had any close contact with any members of the opposite sex at school. I have never seen her have a normal conversation with any member of the opposite sex."

"What if it's someone from outside the school?"

"?"

"That guy is so handsome, could he be Kasumigaoka's boyfriend?"

"What boyfriend?"

"Come and see for yourselves."

"Wow! Kasumigaoka is being cute! She even raised her little fist at that person! I've never seen her act so girlish before... and they're holding hands!"

"real or fake?"

During lunch break, the school suddenly became lively, but the two people at the center of the conversation were unaware of it.

"Why are you only arriving now? I'm starving!" Kasumigaoka Utaha demanded angrily as soon as she reached the door.

"Sorry, sorry, something came up and I was held up." Shichen handed the bento to Kasumigaoka Utaha and clasped his hands in apology.

"Aren't you always free?"

"We can't be idle all the time."

"Hmph! I think you're deliberately making me starve." Kasumigaoka Utaha sneered.

"How could I? I couldn't bear to part with it."

"Go to hell." Kasumigaoka Utaha freed one hand and punched Toki, but he easily caught and held it.

"What are you doing? There are so many people watching at school." Kasumigaoka Utaha struggled for a moment, but found she couldn't break free.

"Didn't you strike first?"

"Who told you to let me go hungry? You better watch out, I'm notorious at school. Are you sure you want to keep holding on like this?"

"What are you afraid of? I'm not from your school. You'll be the one in trouble then," Shi Chen said nonchalantly.

"What trouble do I have? I don't have any close friends at school." Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't seem to care.

"Really? Then we'll stay like this forever?" Shi Chen squeezed her hand.

“…I still need to eat!” Kasumigaoka Utaha rolled her eyes at him.

“Okay…” Shi Chen released her and then asked, “Can I go in?”

"What do you want to do?"

"I have something to tell you." Shi Chen's expression turned serious.

Kasumigaoka Utaha frowned: "Is it important?"

"Hmm...it's important in some ways, but not in others," Shi Chen said, keeping everyone in suspense.

"Which one is it?" Kasumigaoka Utaha glared at him.

"Ahem, it should be important, right?"

"Really? Then come in."

"Hmm? Is everything alright?" Shi Chen glanced at the guard in the guardhouse.

"With me here, there won't be any problems." Kasumigaoka Utaha turned and walked inside.

"?"

Shi Chen was a little skeptical, but he still stepped in through the small door next to him. To his surprise, the gatekeeper inside actually nodded at him.

Shichen nodded in response and quickened his pace to catch up with Kasumigaoka Utaha.

"what happened?"

"What? What's going on?" Kasumigaoka Utaha stared ahead.

"Do you know the gatekeeper?" Shi Chen asked curiously.

"I don't know him, but he knows me."

"..."

"Heh~ I'm number one in the grade, guaranteed. The school even gave me special privileges." Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at him smugly.

"It turns out that having good grades really does allow you to do whatever you want at school."

"It's not as exaggerated as you say."

"That's about enough... Where should we go?"

"Let's go to the rooftop. I'll eat there. You tell me what to do. That's my territory."

"...Won't other people see this? Aren't you afraid of misunderstandings?"

"Are you scared?" Kasumigaoka Utaha retorted.

"What do I have to be afraid of?" Shi Chen chuckled softly, reached out and took her hand, and asked, "Do you dare?"

"What's there to be afraid of?" Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled slightly and grasped his hand in return.

"..." Shichen was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Kasumigaoka Utaha to actually cooperate with him.

"Let's go."

Kasumigaoka Utaha took his hand and led the way, into the teaching building, from the main entrance to the stairs, and then upstairs.

Unsurprisingly, wherever the two went, there were crowds of people.

But everyone was either blocking the classroom door or watching from a distance, and no one dared to get close.

Many were curious, many were disappointed, and even more were excited.

It seems the campus celebrity has a boyfriend, and he's a handsome guy from another school. For students at the same school, this is no less newsworthy than a celebrity scandal.

It has a strong melon flavor.

Some people couldn't help but send messages to their friends to let them know, while others shared their excitement everywhere. The boys were gossiping, and so were the girls.

They were all excited, even more so than when the school announced a holiday.

In Class G of Grade 1, several girls hurriedly gathered around a blonde girl with pigtails who was sitting at the back of the classroom, lost in thought.

"Sawamura-kun, did you know? It seems like Kasumigaoka-senpai is in a relationship."

"That's incredible, but this way her popularity will definitely be lower than Sawamura's."

“Didn’t I say I didn’t care about this?” Eriri Sawamura Spencer looked at the group helplessly.

"But that person is really handsome."

"She looks just like she stepped out of a painting."

"Is that so?" Eriri Sawamura Spencer didn't seem to care much.

No matter how beautiful she is, can she compare to her prince charming?

The prince she met when she was a child was absolutely the most handsome man in the world.

“Sawamura-san, you can take a look if you don’t believe me.” One of them took out his phone and pointed the screen at Sawamura Spencer Eriri, showing her the photo she had just secretly taken.

Eriri Sawamura Spencer casually glanced at her phone screen, but when she saw the time in the photo, she froze instantly.

Chapter 38 Embracing Parting

Shichen followed Kasumigaoka Utaha to the top floor of the teaching building, watched her take out a key to open the rooftop door, and then followed her up to the rooftop.

How did you get the key?

“I applied to the teacher,” Kasumigaoka Utaha replied, locking the door behind her.

"You can even apply for this?"

"That's easy. I just said I needed a quiet place to read during my lunch break, because a noisy place would disturb my school, and the teacher gave me the key to the rooftop."

Shi Chen twitched the corner of his mouth: "...You're really something."
