"You're not a good boyfriend if you abandon your girlfriend who you specially invited to go shopping."

This statement naturally caused another round of screams. Li Nian knew that Kasumigaoka was definitely doing it on purpose. She didn't expect that she would have to play the dating simulation game with her in her class. Li Nian rubbed her temples with a headache: "Just tell me whether you want to eat lunch or not."

"Just bring a sandwich, and milk if you want to drink."

Li Nian left the classroom with the idea of ​​getting away from the place of doubt, but he did not sit in the cafeteria leisurely to enjoy his lunch. He took a breath and quickly brought back everyone's things.

When they came back, An Yi also joined them, and as expected, the whole club was having a lunchtime gathering, except for the completely meaningless blonde with twin ponytails.

Although she teased Li Nian as usual and caused some unnecessary commotion, Kasumi no Oka's purpose of coming here was still for Wu Geng. She really wanted to help Wu Geng revise the manuscript so that he could make his debut through the essay contest, which was why she read the manuscript carefully in the morning and gave her own revision suggestions.

At this time, Kasumi No Oka was with Wu Geng, looking at the two revision materials given by herself and Li Nian at the same time. She tried to answer Wu Geng's questions based on her experience and knowledge, and directly guided her writing. Wu Geng asked various questions without hesitation, some of which Kasumi No Oka didn't quite understand. When she saw Li Nian coming back with things, she asked him to come over quickly to help answer them.

An Yi chose an angle and took a photo with her phone with everyone present. She posted it in the Line group and @ed me. I’m not a tsundere type with blonde twin ponytails.

"Lunch gathering for club members. Guess who's the only one not there?"

Obviously, he was still resentful of this guy for mocking him for not being able to go to college, and he did receive a fierce response.

"I have friends here who are having an elegant dinner together! I don't envy your overly casual appearance!"

In fact, it is normal for students to gather in groups of three or four during lunch break to eat and chat. It is not uncommon for people from other classes to come over, and this group of people does not chat loudly or noisily.

But the members' presence is a little too strong, and it is even more obvious when they get together. The group over there from Miura and Hayama feels like their limelight has been stolen. Those who usually talk loudly and without restraint no longer dare to do so. Several loudmouths, led by Tobe, can't help but lower their voices.

Yuigahama looked at the small group over there with envy: "It turns out that the ice beauty senior can also smile like this... She looks so relaxed... I'm a little envious."

Miura was a little unhappy: "A bunch of weird people get together to do weird things, what's there to envy."

"Ahaha." Yuigahama could hear Miura's unhappiness and quickly laughed dryly and looked away.

Ye Shan didn't care. He also looked at Li Nian with a little envy in his eyes: "That feeling is pretty good..."

"Why does Hayato say that..."

"Okay, it's their freedom to talk about whatever they want. It seems that senior sister Kasumigaoka will come again in the future. It seems that the noise around classmate Li Nian is becoming a normal thing, which means that he has a good relationship with his friends. It's a good thing." Ye Shan retracted his gaze.

"Yes, yes." The Minister of Revenue thought it was a good thing to have beautiful women to look at, and he nodded vigorously in agreement.

This caused Miura to glare at him: "No! It's too noisy!"

"Yumiko." Ye Shan's gentle tone carried a warning tone: "Others are not talking loudly, they are just chatting normally. You have to get used to it. Don't go and cause trouble for others because of this kind of thing."

Miura was just speaking her mind. She didn't want Ye Shan to have too many opportunities to get in touch with the third-year iceberg beauty. When Ye Shan said that, she could only pout a little aggrievedly: "I don't plan to cause trouble to others."

Ye Shan nodded: "That's right, you can't mess with Li Nian casually."

The Ministry of Revenue understood this very well: "Yes, yes, he is very scary when he gets angry."

Yuigahama also advised: "Yumiko, there is no need for you to hate Li Nian so much. He is actually a very good person!"

They all wanted Sanpu and Li Nian to have a good relationship, but what they said had the opposite effect.

"Li Nian, Li Nian...why do you always mention that guy?"

Chapter 438: The Unsuccessful First Script Writing

Li Nianyou, who was waiting for the fifth update to be completed, heard various voices passively. Among them, Ye Shan's words caught his attention. He glanced over and felt that what he said seemed to be correct.

It became noisy around me.

I always feel that as soon as I open my eyes, there is a familiar presence around me. In the dormitory, it is the people from Sakurasou, and in school, it is these people from the club.

It feels like there isn't much time for me to be alone and quiet.

For Li Nian now, closing her eyes is meditation, reading is practice, and when she devotes herself to writing, she can focus to the point of blocking out external objects and distracting thoughts. It feels that during those free times when she is truly awake, there are always noisy people around her.

Li Nian's mind was wandering far away.

Ye Shan said that the noisy situation around him would become the norm. Li Nian also had this feeling and knew that these were the guys who would gather around him and make noise whenever they had the chance.

But compared to Ye Shan, Li Nian was more aware that this was not the norm.

But only recently.

Because it is temporary, we have a common goal, we are close enough to see each other, and we are doing something together, so we gather together.

But this is not the norm.

All good things must come to an end. After all, people are individuals scattered around the world. When the music ends and people disperse, there will be a day when they will go their separate ways.

The most recent one may be when high school seniors graduate.

At that time, seniors like Kasumigaoka, Isayama, Kamiigusa and Jin will leave Sobu High School and Sakurasou.

After that, we, the group of people, will graduate.

Li Nian has experienced what it is like to graduate from high school, and knows what kind of changes it will bring to the distance between people.

Without the physical relationship where we can see each other everywhere, and being scattered all over the place, even if we want to contact or gather together, it will not be so natural and casual.

What's more, after graduating from high school, although you are a college student, you are actually an adult and have left the category of "children". You need to work hard for your future and life. You will have new encounters and many more things to do.

At that time, the children who had naturally gathered together because they were in the same school would have to disperse and go their separate ways. It would be hard to tell what kind of connection they would have in the future.

Even if we are as close friends as we are today, it will be a question whether we can maintain our friendship by then and become acquaintances who can call each other by name when we meet.

It was not until I lost my identity as a student and looked back that I realized that the friendships made in my student days were truly special and...precious.

It does not involve much interest or personal connections.

After classes and during holidays, they always get together as a matter of course, without the need to specifically look for a time when everyone is free or a place where everyone can go. When young children get together, they don't talk about work, wallets, family matters, or other boring and negative issues.

Reliving high school life again, Li Nian knows that such time is hard-won and short-lived. Once lost, it will never come back again...

“You have to cherish it…”

I couldn't help but mutter to myself, it wasn't very loud, but Kasumigaoka heard it.

Wu Geng was writing furiously. Kasumigaoka, who had some free time, didn't say anything. She just kept looking at Li Nian's face.

She is waiting for the boy to look over here, and then her eyes will meet with that of her beautiful senior sister, and they will look at each other affectionately inadvertently. Then she can give him a just right smile, and maybe she can achieve the effect of stirring up even the straight man's heart.

...Various novels, animations and games are full of such plots. Kasumigaoka learned it from them and wanted to give it a try.

It's a pity that she was looking at the boy, but ignored the cute and beautiful senior girl next to her. When she had some free time, she actually glanced at another boy for a long time. I don't know what's wrong with her.

Although this made Kasumigaoka a little depressed, after spending such a long time together, she already knew that this guy with a rough appearance was actually quite sentimental in heart. Just like herself, he would be touched by many things he saw and heard.

Just by looking at Li Nian's drooping eyebrows, Xia Zhiqiu felt a little lonely in the boy's heart. Hearing him mumbling, Xia Zhiqiu was stunned, but suddenly guessed what Li Nian was thinking.

Li Nian was moved. When she turned her head and met Kasumigaoka's gaze, she realized that she had lost her composure. She was about to brush it off as if nothing had happened, but she saw Kasumigaoka smile and said softly, "You have to cherish it."

"???" Li Nian immediately widened his eyes, somewhat unconvinced, thinking that this person was just trying to find something to talk about, and said with a smile: "Hey, has your human observation skill been upgraded to mind reading? Do you know what I'm thinking?"

"Maybe you're thinking that the time you spend with everyone now is worth cherishing?"

Li Nian was really stunned. Wow, is this really an upgrade of his talent skill?

"I don't have the ability to read minds."

Kasumigaoka looked around the second-grade class and found it lively and bustling. In fact, she had not felt this way in her third-grade class.

Everyone started to feel stressed about preparing for the exams. Some people even quit their clubs. They would start going to school on their own and then take exams everywhere. The atmosphere of separation was already very strong in the class. "It just so happened that I was thinking about the same question recently. I feel like I don't have much time like this."

Li Nian understood immediately. Yes, the real senior high school students were right in front of him. They should be more eager than himself to feel the approaching graduation and what it meant.

"But it doesn't matter. Li Nian is also coming to Zaoying University, right?"

"Hmm? Ah, it's the literature department you mentioned back then that's pretty good."

"Then I just have to wait for a year in college, and then I can be with you again." Kasumigaoka blinked.

"Snap!" Wu Geng suddenly used too much force and broke the lead of the mechanical pencil. He handed it to Li Nian expressionlessly: "Help me put in and put out the lead."

"You need my help to refill your pen?"

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm racing against time."

Li Nian had no choice but to take the mechanical pencil and refill.

Kasumigaoka watched this scene with a smile.

Kato pretended not to notice and ate leisurely, while Amai was concentrating on typing on her phone and chatting privately with the blonde girl with twin ponytails on Line. In fact, he was broadcasting the scene live to her. The message he sent was "The Shura Field has risen again, I feel the murderous aura." He received a response: "Please check again and report back."

Gogen looked directly at Kasumigaoka and suddenly said, "I want to get into Hayatei University, too."

"...Ah?" Li Nian inserted the thin lead into the mechanical pencil without even looking at it, and casually placed it in front of Wu Geng, asking in surprise, "Are you sure?"

“Because I am also someone who aspires to be an author.”

"Is that the only reason?" Kasumigaoka asked meaningfully.

"...I also want to follow this guy." Wu Geng continued to bury her head in writing, making it difficult to see her expression: "Well, I just want to continue learning from you two."

"...Think carefully about it." Li Nian reminded: "Don't make a hasty decision."

He felt that Gogen's sudden decision was due to the stimulation he felt from Kasumigaoka and himself.

"It's a good major, it's of interest to me, and it's close to home." Wu Geng said calmly, "There's nothing to consider."

"I think so too." This is exactly the reason why Kasumigaoka, who has excellent grades and can go to better schools, still chose Hayao University: "But for you, Gogen-san, it's not that easy to pass the exam."

"I will work hard."

Li Nian was inexplicably moved at this moment: "Finally one of my friends has remembered what the students' main job is. You want to prepare for the exam seriously, right? This is what youth is. Love, hate, and vengeance are all bullshit. Working hard in the endless sea of ​​questions is the youth of normal people. Teacher, I am very touched. Don't worry, the students next to you are the top students of the second and third grades respectively. I want to help you, classmate Wu Geng, and let you raise your score by 200 or 300 points. It's just that you may need to do a few sets of papers... If you have to take care of writing on top of that, I'm afraid the rest of your time in high school will really become very busy."

"...If you want something, you have to pay for it. I know that very well."

"…Really? That's good."

Looking at the girl who is working hard on writing now, Li Nian will definitely support her in making various efforts to make her life better.

But actually I also feel a little sad.

Knowing that Wu Geng wanted to get the results, he would have to sacrifice time that could have been spent on having fun. It is said that students in their youth should bury themselves in books, but Li Nian also knows that such a youth is really regrettable.

People always take hard work for granted, but in fact hard work is never something that can be taken for granted, because hard work is always boring and painful, and it is an act of giving up comfort and happiness.

In order to give such women more time to breathe and relax, we can only teach them “more efficient ways of working”.

Fortunately, that is exactly what Li Nian is good at finding out now.

Kasumigaoka thinks that Gogen has a good chance of successfully passing the entrance exam for Shonan University, because she gives people the impression of being the kind of person who is willing to study hard.

"Oh, it seems that my university life is worth looking forward to... I believe that as long as the fate with classmate Li Nian continues, everyone here will be able to gather together in the future."

Li Nian remained noncommittal and was not so optimistic. She did not think she was such an important person to everyone.

Everyone agreed with what Kasumigaoka said, and seemed to think it made sense.

After school, we helped with some school festival matters as usual, and then all the club members gathered at the old cafe.

This time, a certain blonde with twin ponytails was not missing. She seemed to be a little upset that she was not invited to the lunch party. She shouted: "How can you exclude the key painter from the event!"

Li Nian thought that it was not a special event, but the sudden arrival of Kasumigaoka caused this situation.

An Yi refuted her without caring: "That was in my and Anian's class, and you don't want to expose your identity as a otaku in front of others, so it doesn't matter if you don't come."

Kato, however, understood what Sawamura meant: "If we want to have the dinner in a more obscure place, Sawamura-san would also like to come?"

"I, I didn't say that."

Oh, so that’s what you mean.

"Okay, let's change the place. How about the rooftop?" said Kasumigaoka.

"Wait." Li Nian was a little resistant. This meant that this person would come to disturb his peace every noon from today onwards: "Do we need to get together so frequently? Senior Kasumigaoka plans to come all the time?"

"Oh, isn't it a fixed plot in college life that the heroine goes to have lunch with the hero every day at noon?" Kasumigaoka said, "I also want to try making a bento for you myself and feed it to you in public."

"I refuse." Li Nian didn't want to test the beautiful girl's cooking skills. If it was really delicious, that would be another matter, but just by looking at her, it was clear that Kasumigaoka was a master of cooking. "I think the food cooked by the cafeteria auntie is better. Let me enjoy my lunch quietly. If you have something to say, we'll talk later. If not, please don't disturb me."

"...Tsk." Kasumigaoka smacked his lips. "Someone actually thinks that a beautiful girl's bento is not as good as the food made by the cafeteria lady?"

"That's nonsense. Does appearance have an effect on cooking skills? Or is Kasumigaoka-senpai confident that her cooking skills can compare with those of experienced old ladies?"

“…Can the value of food only be measured by how delicious it is?”

"Of course not, there is also nutritional value."

Kasumigaoka: "..."

"As expected of you." Sawamura gave him a thumbs up. It was the first time he saw someone who was not happy to see a beautiful girl. Meeting someone who was determined to be single, Sawamura felt that the loneliness he felt after being abandoned by his friend was just pretentious.

"Then let's get back to the topic of the club. I will first report the current progress to our producer."
