The moment she realized this, fear and anxiety overwhelmed her heart again.

"I'm afraid that after 'curing' Yoshina, you will leave me..." The girl clenched her hands slightly, her voice trembling a little.

The boy said at the time that as a replacement, he would be the hero who would accompany and protect her during this period and would never let her be alone.

...So, what happens when you are no longer alone?

After he has fulfilled this promise...will he leave me?

Yoshino knows that this idea is wrong.

She wanted Shionai to wake up quickly, and she kept comforting herself that even if she fulfilled the agreement, Mr. Xia Zhi would not leave her so easily.

However, the so-called agreement is an oath that makes people believe and feel at ease.

When she thought about the future without this promise, she felt a strong sense of uneasiness in her heart. She couldn't help but think about it.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Xia Zhi..."

The girl hugged the pillow tightly in her arms, buried half of her face in it, and said softly:

"…Yoshino is actually a bad kid."

Although I don't quite understand why she suddenly said this, for Xia Zhi

"Even if Yoshino is a bad girl, I still like her just the same." He said, stroking the girl's hair.

Yoshino shook her head again.

Just liking someone is not enough... She thought she was a bad kid, but after being changed by the boy, she became more greedy than before.

You have to do something yourself.

As I said before, she is different now.

If there is anything she has learned during her time with Xia Zhi, it is probably the courage to try hard for the person she loves and the person who is most important to her.

If you do nothing, nothing will get better.

Therefore, an idea came to her mind.

I want to give him all of myself.

As long as this is the case, I can be with him forever, right?

...No, it's not just that

What I want is not just a simple connection from the body

"Mr. Xia Zhi..."

As if to build up her courage, the girl took a deep breath and drank the rest of the drink.

Then she turned around, stretched out her two small hands to hold his cheeks, blushing as she put her cheeks close to his...

The sweet milky aroma came over along with the soft touch.

It tastes completely different from that night, but equally sweet and tempting.

If the girl that night was a cool and delicious ice cream, what Xia Zhi felt now was like the sweetest and softest cream milkshake. In addition to the different taste, there was also a warmth that seemed to melt people.

"Even if I'm facing Yoshino..."

The girl's delicate cheeks were flushed with an intoxicating blush. Under the reflection of the bright moonlight, her figure was covered with a layer of dreamy and hazy light and shadow, like an elf wandering in a dream, exuding an indescribable alluring charm.

If the original agreement will disappear

I want to make a longer, everlasting vow with him.

Yoshino thought to herself, her eyes as clear and blue as the ocean stared into the boy's eyes, and she suppressed her inner shyness and mustered up the courage to ask the most important oath in her life.

"Will you also... continue to be my hero?"

Chapter 1324: Miss Time Elf's Little "Revenge"

"what……"

On the way to school, Xia Zhi yawned loudly.

"Xiazhi, didn't you sleep well last night?"

Seeing that the boy looked like he hadn't woken up yet, Rinne beside him asked with some concern.

Kotori also looked at him in confusion, feeling a little surprised that he seemed to have not slept well in the past two days.

Is there so much homework in high school?

etc.

"Could it be that that Tobiichi Origami comes to harass you again?" Recalling what happened yesterday morning, Kotori asked vigilantly.

"Not her."

Xia Zhi replied vaguely.

That's good……

Qin Li breathed a sigh of relief, then froze for a moment.

Not her? Then who is it?

"Come to think of it, I didn't see Yoshino all morning."

Just then, Rinne's voice came from the side, interrupting her thoughts and drawing her attention.

Kotori recalled and it seemed to be true. Normally at this time, she should have gotten up long ago.

I didn't expect that Yoshino would also stay in bed, how rare.

Considering the embarrassment of yesterday, it’s a good thing that we didn’t run into each other.

She thought so.

"Good morning, Xiazhi."

A familiar yet strange voice came into her ears. Kotori subconsciously raised her head and looked in the direction of the voice. She saw a familiar black-haired girl with twin ponytails standing at a crossroads not far away. She happened to greet them with a sweet smile.

"There are two more. What a coincidence." Her eyes fell on the two girls next to her and she greeted them with an unchanged smile.

Was it an illusion? Kotori felt as if her gaze lingered on Sister Rinne for a moment.

"Good morning, Tokisaki-san~" Rinne greeted her with her usual smile.

"Tokisaki..."

Kotori recalled that it was the girl she met at the comic convention a month ago, and she seemed to be an acquaintance of her brother.

But, classmates?

I haven't heard my brother mention her before. Is she their classmate? I've never run into her on the way to school before...

There was a hint of doubt in the girl's eyes.

"Good morning." Xia Zhi and the girl responded.

"…Xiazhi, you didn't seem to get a good rest last night?"

Tokisaki Kurumi seemed to realize something and tilted her head slightly.

"Doctor Shi is really observant."

Xia Zhi yawned again and replied perfunctorily.

Isn't her last name Tokisaki? Kotori complained in her mind.

"Oh, I'm not a doctor."

Tokisaki Kurumi narrowed her eyes slightly, looked the boy up and down again, and said with a hint of meaning

"But even though I'm not a doctor, I can still give you some small suggestions... Xia Zhi, you should also pay more attention to your daily life and not overwork yourself."

Thank you for your concern, but I’m still relatively strong... I always feel that if I say this, I’ll get a response like “I’m talking about someone else.”

Xia Zhi thought to himself, and looked up at the traffic light at the intersection. There were still more than ten seconds of red light time.

"Ms. Kuang San, are you waiting here for us to go to school together?" he asked, changing the subject.

"Is that so..."

Tokisaki Kurumi did not give a clear answer, but put her finger on her chin and said ambiguously:

"After all, I'm not like Xia Zhi, who has a cute girl to accompany him to school. I'm a little envious."

Now even Kotori could hear the emotion in the girl's words and turned to look at her brother beside her.

Look, you called the wrong person’s name. Are you angry now?

Do you think other people are as prone to temper tantrums as you are?

Xia Zhi responded with his eyes, and Qin Li puffed up her cheeks slightly, and angrily pinched the soft flesh on his waist through his clothes.

You are not in girlfriend mode now, right?

Xia Zhi pulled the corner of his mouth, looked at the traffic light that was about to turn green, hesitated for a moment, and invited Tokisaki Kurumi

"Then... do you want to come together?"

"Since classmate Xia Zhi has invited me so, I'd better obey your command." The girl showed a beautiful smile on her face and nodded in agreement.

Going to school together is also an important part of campus life.

The few of them chatted casually, sent Kotori to her school, and then went to school together.

Just as he entered the classroom, Xia Zhi was about to lie down to catch up on his sleep, but was woken up again by the girl's voice.

"Speaking of which, Xia Zhi classmate."

Putting the schoolbag on the table, Tokisaki Kurumi took out a workbook from it, looked at him and said with her head tilted slightly.

"I'm a little confused about some of the exercises the teacher assigned yesterday. Could I discuss them with you?"

...To be honest, I didn’t write it either.

Xia Zhi glanced behind him and saw the pink-haired girl who was watching them with interest. He was a little confused as to why she didn't ask Rinne for help.

Maybe it’s because… I’m not familiar with him?

Facing the girl's red eyes that were as clear and bright as gemstones and blinking at him, Xia Zhi sighed helplessly and took out his exercise book from his schoolbag.

After finally discussing with the girl, I left my handwriting on the exercise book.

After a long time, the bell for class rang.

Watching the teacher walk up to the podium and start the familiar hypnotic voice, Xia Zhi yawned and skillfully lay down on the desk.

However, before he could drift off to sleep, he felt someone poking his cheek.

He raised his eyes dazedly, only to find that Tokisaki Kurumi had sat beside him at some point, gently poking his cheek with her fingers. After noticing that he had woken up, she withdrew her hand as if nothing had happened.

Wait, why did you move in next to me?

"Unfortunately, I forgot to bring my textbook, so I can only ask the teacher to let me and Xia Zhi use the same textbook temporarily..." Tokisaki Kurumi blinked at him and explained.

You can use it. I probably won't be able to use it.

Xia Zhi originally wanted to say this, but under the gazes of the teacher on the podium and the students around him, he did not say it in the end.

As a transfer student who has just arrived on campus and is not familiar with the courses, it is understandable that he or she forgets to bring textbooks.

But why did he feel that the other party did it on purpose?

As expected, just as he thought, the girl kept finding various excuses to talk to him or to give him various things to do throughout the whole day.

Although the reasons are different, the ultimate purpose and result is the same: it makes it impossible to sleep peacefully.

"..."

Does it feel like she's become a little girly lately?

Didn't I just call her by the wrong last name once? Is it necessary to retaliate like this?

Xia Zhi complained in his heart.
