I really don't want to have a girlfriend.

Chapter 127 The Sisters' Battleground Continues

The weather forecast indicates that it will not rain today.

So perhaps because it was nearing nightfall, the sky gradually changed from gray to dark, and the clouds were so dark they seemed to drip water, as if an invisible pressure was hanging over the entire amusement park.

The cold wind gradually stopped, and although the temperature was close to ten degrees Celsius, it felt stuffy and hot all over.

At the exit of the Ferris wheel, the atmosphere between the two women and the man was like a vacuum, so heavy that it was hard to breathe.

"You two are sisters, why are you arguing over me..."

When his attempts to dissuade her failed, Yuuki Tenkuji put his hand to his forehead and sighed heavily, feigning nonchalance.

Unfortunately, like a clown performing in the wrong place, the two men had no intention of paying him any attention.

With a dignified bearing like a knight, Yukino Yukinoshita tightly pursed her soft lips, standing solemnly in front of him, not allowing the person in front of her to invade the territory behind her even a step.

With a radiant smile like a saint, Yukinoshita narrowed her crescent-shaped eyes like the Grim Reaper's scythe, her gentle yet unyielding cold aura pressing down mercilessly on her sister, and a chilling flame could be vaguely seen rising from the depths of her eyes.

The two stared at each other, as if sparks were flying through the air.

After a short while, Yukino broke the silence.

"What are you doing here? You didn't come all this way just to ruin our plans, did you?"

Yang Nai maintained her smile: "I already said, I just wanted to catch up with my boyfriend. Newcomer, you'd better get out of the way, okay?"

Yukino rolled her eyes and, as usual, said sarcastically, "The same old line again? I feel sorry for you."

Yang Nai instantly wiped away her smile, revealing a similar yet different sneer: "Heh, I really pity a stupid kid like you who knows nothing and blindly turns against your sister over a love that's been split in two. Ha, just looking at you makes me laugh. How could I have such a foolish sister?"

Yukino remained unmoved, only coldly retorting, "Is that so? Then what do you know about him? Is it that he doesn't like sweets, or that his eyebrows rise a centimeter when he lies? I'm sorry, I knew these things on the fifth day I met him."

Yang Nai raised an eyebrow, crossing her arms defiantly: "Did you know he could break a punching power testing machine with one punch, and sneak into a heavily guarded resort without anyone noticing?"

Yukino: "Have you ever eaten a meal he cooked himself? Have you ever cooked lunch with him for his sister or his junior classmates?"

Yang Nai: "Have you ever been picked up and kissed by him on stage in front of a crowd? Have you ever gone for a drive with him and left your own marks on each other?"

Yukino: "Have you ever seen him beg for help?"

Yang Nai: "Have you ever seen him kneel down on one knee?"

They fought fiercely, neither side giving an inch.

They went back and forth, giving each other almost no time to breathe.

The verbal sparring raged on for several seconds, more like two sharp-witted and cautious assassins probing each other, searching for an opportunity to cut through the deadly line than arguing over love.

Yukino, who acted instinctively, was originally no match for Haruno, who never stopped scheming. Sooner or later, she would be defeated and rendered speechless.

However, before she was completely at a disadvantage, she suddenly stopped talking, frowned and looked at Yukinoshita Haruno's expression, trying to find traces of her lying, and fell into a thoughtful silence for a long time.

"...I didn't expect you to have such a vivid imagination; you speak as if it were the truth."

With a gentle exhale, Yukino Yukinoshita returned to calm, temporarily retracting her previously aggressive and irritating demeanor.

Yang Nai sneered: "You dare to bring up such a trivial matter? Don't you underestimate me?"

“Those are all things that actually happened between him and me, which is better than your increasingly ridiculous fantasies.”

"Haa—that's why I said you're just an outsider who doesn't know anything."

Shaking her head and sighing as if feeling sorry for him, Yukino suddenly curled the corners of her mouth and smiled meaningfully: "Yukino, aren't you really curious about what I just said? Don't pretend to be oblivious. You should be able to sense that I didn't come here specifically to find him with just a little crush or unrequited love, right?"

He paused, his gentle voice carrying a seductive undertone, attempting to lure her into his trap.

"You know him, but don't you know me? You went to all this trouble to come here. Do you think nothing ever happened between us, and you only did all this because of your fantasies? Is your sister, whom you've been chasing since childhood but can never catch up with, really such a hopeless, foolish, and infatuated woman?"

"...Yes, even if you have a terrible personality, there's no reason for you to be this crazy."

She wavered for only a moment, but Yukino's eyes remained calm as she warily stared at Hinata.

"So what? I'll ask him myself if I have any questions. There's no need to guess what you're up to! I'm not so naive as to believe what a troublemaker says."

"Tsk, how stubborn."

Seeing that she remained unmoved, Yang Nai bit her nails and muttered unhappily, "Saying more is useless, and I can't produce any evidence..."

Thinking of this, she changed the subject again: "Then go ask him now? Ask the person behind you if I'm really being unreasonable?"

Without turning her head, Yukino said without hesitation, "I don't need to be in such a hurry to know what he will tell me later. I just need to wait for him to tell me on his own."

Seeing her expression, Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes changed slightly. She gently clenched her fist and fell silent for a moment.

"...Yes, but I don't want to hold back. I can only get more and more anxious."

Suddenly, Yang Nai seemed to let go of all hostility, lowered her head, and sighed in a deep voice: "I've endured long enough. If I continue to endure, no one will pity me, so... I took the initiative to come to you before I was completely forgotten."

She looked past her sister and towards the boy directly behind her.

Her gaze softened, and a moment of vulnerability appeared in her expression, but she stubbornly maintained her composure, smiling helplessly.

"My goal is actually very simple. I just want him to admit it in front of you... to admit that I existed in the past and that those incredible experiences were not fabricated."

Sensing a slight change in Yukino's gaze, Haruno smiled and looked back at her, gently poking her fair and soft cheek.

"Huh? You don't really think I came here just to steal my sister's man, do you? You're going to stage a morning drama about fighting over a husband at the drop of a hat, and if you get angry, you'll even hit your own sister?"

"..."

"Pfft! Hahahaha, you're so adorably silly~ Even if I were, I wouldn't make it so obvious." She waved her hand with a laugh, her voice as gentle and cheerful as ever, like the rising sun in winter. "It would be so embarrassing to be watched by everyone. I'm not planning on doing a play or a movie or anything. I was just trying to scare you guys with that serious attitude."

Yukino Yukinoshita watched her quietly, her face expressionless, and she did not lower her guard because of it.

She can easily create an atmosphere of confrontation, and then just as easily smooth things over and start over. She can casually gloss over the past as if it were a joke—that's the kind of person my sister is. It's not impossible for her to turn on me in the next moment. You can't let her behavior control your emotions.

"Alright, alright, let's make up for now~" Seemingly sensing her tension, Yukinoshita Haruno patted her sister's stiff shoulder reassuringly. Seeing her frown, she decisively gave up on hugging her.

Then he raised his gaze and squinted at Sky Temple.

She was still smiling, but her tone had become slightly lower.

"Well, you've had your fill of this show, isn't it time for you to respond?"

"Whether it's my matter or Natsukawa Masuzu's matter... Little Yuyu, could you please tell me everything right here?"

Yuu Tenkuji: "..."

"It's not just you, it's also related to Xia Chuan?"

Upon hearing this, Yukino Yukinoshita couldn't help but turn around to look at him, her expression filled with unease and confusion, her gaze flanking her sister's.

These two sisters, who were arguing and insulting each other just a second ago, are now working in perfect unison, targeting a man with many suspicious points.

"……Ugh."

As for Tenkuji Yu, who was finally being taken seriously, he didn't know whether to be elated or to sigh wearily.

He didn't even feel much tension from being forced to confess; instead, a sense of helplessness spread through him, as if thinking, "Wow, are you finally going to interrogate me directly?" He truly felt like an outsider.

He was clearly the main reason they were arguing...

Clearing his throat, Tenkuji Yu's expression turned serious.

"I originally planned to say everything I could before you started arguing... You two got so caught up in your own heated argument that you left me out in the cold, and now you're blaming me for just watching the show?"

After venting his frustrations, he didn't continue with any more nonsense, but instead met Yukinoshita Haruno's calm gaze.

"To be honest, I don't want to talk about those things here."

Discussing family matters in public is just as embarrassing as being dragged along the street by your mother by the ear.

"There's nothing I can do, they just couldn't hold back anymore and came to confront you. They didn't think about all that."

Pouting innocently, Yang Nai shrugged and glanced around at the noisy surroundings: "Should we find another place and settle everything privately?"

"That's what I'm planning anyway." During the brief silence, Tenkuji Yuu found a secluded corner suitable for conversation, behind the stairs where Yukinoshita Haruno emerged from the shadows. "Let's go over there. But Haruno, I hope you're mentally prepared..."

Without any panic, retreat, or guilt, Tenkuji Yu looked straight at Yukinoshita and said earnestly, "I tried to be honest with them about your situation and what happened to me, but in the end, I was stopped by some mysterious force."

Yukino Yukinoshita was taken aback, and reflexively blurted out, "You mean, it's that bastard God interfering again..."

"God? Hmph, is that what you call it? Adding the prefix 'bastard' is just right." Muttering with some amusement, Tenkuji Yu shook his head and continued, "That's pretty much it. So, no matter how strong your resolve is, even if you go so far as to change into your old clothes and come to me to confront me, I'm not sure if I can say what I want to say, what you want to know... If I can't say it, I'll use 'no comment' as my alternative answer."

He said this with an indifferent expression, seemingly trying to express his ruthlessness and inability to compromise in this regard.

However, Yukino Yukinoshita seemed completely unaware of this, only looking at him with shining eyes and a genuine, innocent smile on her face, the emotion of nostalgia and satisfaction seemingly overflowing from her voice.

"Little Youyou, I knew you'd remember!"

As she spoke, she spun around once more, her skirt fluttering like butterfly wings, elegant and beautiful.

A sleeveless pale yellow lace blouse, an elegant plain white long skirt, a light blue denim jacket over it, and a pair of white sneakers from a certain brand on her feet—although it had been thickened to suit winter, this was indeed the outfit the two wore on their date at the amusement park.

Of course, Yuu Tenkuji still remembers.

Not to mention that his memory was originally very good and had not been tampered with by the system—he remembered everything that happened on the day they parted, every scene they spent together, and even the clothes they wore and the hairstyles they had.

Yuu Tenkuji remembered everything perfectly. Those memories were etched deep into his heart like carvings, unlike feelings, they couldn't be forgotten even if he wanted to.

...Could it be that just remembering such a small thing could bring such a happy smile to her face?

Turning her gaze away from Yang Nai's smiling face, Tenkuji Yu glanced at the gloomy gray sky in the distance and sighed softly.

"Yonai, I can only assure you that everything I say from now on will be the truth... I won't lie to you, and I won't lie to myself."

He walked towards the back of the stairs.

Her clothes were tugged, and she met those gentle, dark blue eyes.

"...Do you want to come along?" he asked, though it was just a pointless question.

She immediately glared at me, her eyes filled with menacing intent: "Is there something you can't let me know?"

"Uh... if I could tell you, it would probably be things I don't really want you to know..." Yuu Tenkuji smiled awkwardly, and before Yukino could bristle up again and blast him with her eyes, he reached out and patted her round little head twice.

"Although I wanted to talk to Yang Nai alone, it seems unrealistic to ask you to avoid it now that things have come to this point... Well, come on, it's your right as her girlfriend, and maybe we can resolve the doubts you've been holding onto for so long."

"..."

Whether she was thinking of something or realizing something, Yukino Yukinoshita, holding his hand, bit her lip lightly, her eyes burning with intensity, and stared at him silently for several seconds.

She immediately turned her face away, without saying much. She simply tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and walked gracefully and stylishly toward the back of the stairs.

Yuu Tenkuji watched her retreating figure, took a deep breath, letting the cold wind fill his lungs to calm his emotions, which were beginning to waver again.

He didn't use the "mind of clarity and tranquility," but simply confessed and believed that Yukino could forgive his actions.
