Living in Tokyo, all I want to do is laze around.

“There is no misunderstanding,” Ogata Asaka said coldly, dismissing his explanation. “I have seen all the messages you sent to my sister. In this situation, you still go and date other women.”

"I hate this kind of person the most."

Ogata Asaka gave Goto behind Uesugi Kai a look of utter disdain, her eyes dropping to freezing cold.

"I--"

“Since Goto-kun is scum, how about we make him apologize?” Uesugi Kai interrupted Goto Iwakatsu’s words.

Takahiro Tsubokawa, who came with him, propped up his glasses with his middle finger and examined the current situation.

Goto Iwakatsu's eyes widened, completely unexpected that Uesugi Kai immediately labeled him a 'scumbag': "Damn it, Uesugi, I already said it was a misunderstanding, why are you still treating me like a scumbag?"

Ignoring Goto's words, Uesugi Kai awaited Ogata Asaka's reply.

"no,"

Asaka Ogata spoke coldly, "An apology alone is not enough to show any sincerity."

"What are your conditions? I'll make Goto agree."

Goto Iwakatsu looked at Uesugi Kai with a shocked expression, thinking that asking Uesugi for help was the worst decision he had made all day.

Asaka Ogata glanced at the girl who was standing to her side, seemingly seeking her opinion.

But the girl in the black sailor uniform seemed unsure how to answer, turning her head to one side.

"Understood,"

Ogata Asaka said softly, then slowly told Uesugi Kai, "Make that guy break up with his current girlfriend and continue dating my sister."

"???"

Such a casual remark stunned everyone present.

Even the girl, Asaka Ogata's younger sister, looked at her cold face with surprise:

"elder sister!?"

Ignoring the stares of the crowd, Ogata Asaka continued to add to Uesugi Kai, "Of course, to prevent this from happening again, I will make him give a corresponding guarantee."

Asaka Ogata's voice softened as she glared sternly at Goto.

“If he dares to do this again, he will pay the price.”

Her unquestionable tone and icy beauty created an aura that seemed to freeze the air.

Everyone present, even the onlookers, were stunned.

Except for Kai Uesugi.

He was stroking his chin, pondering what Asaka Ogata had said.

He quickly helped Goto Iwakatsu reach a conclusion, and looked up at Ogata Asaka with utmost seriousness, saying:

"It's a very good solution, and I agree that this plan is feasible."

Goto Iwakatsu's eyes widened again: "Uesugi!?"

Chapter Seventy-Two: The Reliable Uesugi-senpai

“It’s a very simple matter,” Ogata Asaka said in her still indifferent tone, “and it’s taken so long to resolve, which is nothing but very uncomfortable.”

This was clearly said to Goto Iwakatsu.

"elder sister!"

Her younger sister, standing behind her, gripped her forearm tightly, incredulous at her decision.

“The Ogata family doesn’t need to hesitate like this.” Ogata Asaka said this simply, and her younger sister beside her dared not utter another word.

"Uesugi, what should we do now?" Goto Iwakatsu asked anxiously.

Giving Goto a reassuring look, Uesugi Kai continued speaking to Ogata Asaka:

“Ogata-senpai, although I agree that this plan is feasible, it seems that neither side’s leaders are very willing at the moment. Why don’t we let them go back and think about it for a while, and then make a decision naturally after they have calmed down?”

"This is the best consideration to take into account the situation of both parties. It's better not to be so hasty in getting to know someone."

Uesugi Kai doesn't know much information right now, and being surrounded by so many people is not a good opportunity for him to learn about Goto's situation.

In short, first respond to Asaka Ogata's request in a tactful manner, and then make a decision after you have a clear understanding of the cause and effect.

"no,"

Asaka Ogata displayed flawless words and actions, "My patience with that scumbag has reached its limit. Dragging things out will only make them more troublesome; the only way is to deal with it decisively now—"

It didn't work as expected.

Kai Uesugi's expression hardened, and he interrupted her directly: "This won't solve the problem right now, senpai."

The tone was unquestionable.

"!?"

Akino Ogata was surprised and instinctively covered her mouth.

Asaka Ogata frowned, her subtle aura becoming even colder.

The onlookers' gazes darted back and forth between Uesugi Kai and Ogata Asaka, all realizing that the atmosphere had become somewhat strange.

“Uesugi…” Goto Iwakatsu realized he was a little scared.

Ignoring everyone's gaze, Uesugi Kai continued calmly, "Senpai, you're just unilaterally controlling the situation and making the outcome you want."

"This seemingly reasonable solution is just going along with your own ideas, regardless of whether it meets the expectations of Goto and your sister."

"This is an extremely disrespectful way of handling things for both of them."

"Sometimes being too assertive isn't necessarily good for the people and things around you."

Asaka Ogata frowned deeper and deeper, seemingly very dissatisfied with his words.

But to Goto Iwakatsu's surprise, just when everyone thought the situation would become increasingly tense...

Ogata Asaka surprisingly relented, though her tone remained aloof:

"Since Uesugi-kun says so, then we'll do as you say. But that scumbag isn't allowed to chat with other women on his phone until this is resolved."

"This is a request that cannot be refused."

Ogata Asaka gave Goto Iwakatsu a cold look, then left with her sister and walked through the crowd toward the teaching building.

Seeing that the upperclassmen had all left, the archery club members knew that the matter was temporarily over. They glanced at Goto with the eyes of someone looking at scumbags, and then left one by one.

"Hu~~"

As soon as that oppressive aura left, Goto Iwakatsu breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if a great weight had been lifted from his shoulders.

Kai Uesugi glanced at the watch face.

13:13:25

The matter with Goto has been temporarily resolved, so there's no rush.

Time was short, and he had something to discuss with the minister.

"Yuasa-kun." He called out to Yuasa Taketa, who was about to leave.

"what?"

Taketa Yuasa was surprised that Kai Uesugi would call him, and pointed to himself with his right hand, "Is Uesugi-senpai calling me?"

Although Uesugi Kai was a student in the same year as him in the archery club, Uesugi Kai was a second-year student and his archery skills far surpassed those of his classmates.

Therefore, most of his colleagues in the archery club call him "senpai" (senior).

“It’s nothing serious,” Uesugi Kai said. “I just wanted to ask if Seiyu-senpai was in the archery club. I haven’t seen him at all.”

"The minister went back to the teaching building a long time ago."

Kai Uesugi nodded. "Understood, thank you."

"Well... I'll take my leave now, Uesugi-senpai."

"Go."

After bowing slightly to Kai Uesugi, Taketa Yuasa left on his own.

Takahiro Tsubokawa adjusted his glasses: "I didn't expect Uesugi to have such a high status in the archery club. He doesn't seem like a new member at all."

"It's alright."

Kai Uesugi casually replied that since Aoyuuya wasn't in the archery club, there was no point in him staying here.

He glanced at Goto Iwakatsu beside him. "Let's go back to the classroom first, and we can talk about it slowly."

Tsubokawa Takahiro looked at Goto with a half-smile: "That cold-blooded senior knows about your LINE situation. It seems that the process of quantitative change leading to qualitative change has gone wrong. Now the car is wrecked and you almost lost your life."

"What are you talking about?" Goto Iwakatsu punched him on the back in annoyance, then sighed and continued, "Sigh, it's all because I recently got a girlfriend."

After thinking for a moment, he suddenly said firmly:

"I really shouldn't be in a relationship!"

"cut,"

Takahiro Tsubokawa gave him a disdainful look: "You chat every day just to find a girlfriend, but in the end you deny it yourself. I really can't understand how your thought process works in this regard."

"This is different."

"What's the difference? Is it the timing? Don't you have time to block all your previous flirtatious relationships when you're dating your girlfriend?"

“This is different.” Goto Iwakatsu remained steadfast in his opinion.

“Fine, I can’t convince you to let Uesugi come,” Tsubokawa Takahiro turned around, only to find that Uesugi had already walked far away. “Uesugi?”

In the distance, Uesugi Kai only left them with a receding silhouette.

"Sigh, let's go, let's go," Goto Iwakatsu seemed to still be sighing about what had just happened. "We'll still need Uesugi's help later. Akino's older sister is too difficult to deal with."

Takahiro Tsubokawa recalled Ogata Asaka from earlier: "Hmm, that aloof upperclassman seemed to give Uesugi a lot of face, I wonder why."

“Do you know?” he asked.

"I don't know," Goto Iwakatsu replied.
