Thinking about this...

Akane Shinjo couldn't help but look towards the bathroom.

Behind that thin glass door, Nango Toki was taking a shower.

Being in the same room with a teenage boy.

This is something Shinjo Akane doesn't want to think about, nor dares to think about.

Just as she was about to do something to distract herself.

wow-

The bathroom door opened.

At the same time, Nango Toki, who was wiping his hair, walked out from among them.

Akane Shinjo subconsciously raised her eyes to look.

Then... she found that she couldn't take her eyes off her.

Even though she still harbored some prejudice against Nanxiang, she couldn't help but sigh softly at this moment.

"It's so beautiful..."

Yes.

Nanxiang's skin was fair and rosy after just taking a bath, and her damp short hair had an indescribable charm.

Under the lights, his features appeared somewhat deep-set, lacking his usual clean and delicate features, and giving him a mature and handsome look.

If it weren't for being able to perfectly control one's facial expressions...

Akane Shinjo is probably drooling right now—

and many more!

Slobber?

I?

Me, the perfect beautiful girl?

Drooling? Making such an embarrassing expression at a boy your own age?

Realizing what had happened, Akane Shinjo vigorously wiped her empty mouth.

Then--

"New Article".

"Hey?"

Aren't you cold?

Nango, who was drying his hair, put down the towel and asked Shinjo Akane a question.

"...cold."

When Nango Toki opened his mouth, Shinjo Akane already felt a chill.

After all, he was only wearing one uniform, and it was soaked through by the rain.

Even her long stockings, which she always wore, were now completely wet, revealing glimpses of her youthful skin.

"You're cold, why aren't you going to take a shower? Do I have to beg you?"

Nanxiang glanced at her and asked a question, then casually tossed her a set of sportswear.

He then ushered the bewildered Akane Shinjo into the bathroom.

"Wh...what the hell! That guy!"

Akane Shinjo opened her mouth as Nango Toki forcibly ushered her into the bathroom.

Today, she truly experienced a series of firsts in various senses through Nanxiang Shi.

but...

Standing in the bathroom.

Akane Shinjo's slender and petite body trembled.

It's definitely a bit cold...

She rubbed her hands together.

Looking at the bathtub filled with hot water.

Akane hesitated for a moment, but still took off her soaking wet clothes and put them directly into the laundry basket.

After quickly rinsing her hair and letting it get thoroughly wet, Akane Shinjo glanced at the shampoo placed in front of her.

Does that guy... taste the same?

Looking at the shampoo in my hand.

Akane Shinjo seemed to be thinking about something, and her fair face, which was shrouded in mist, turned slightly red.

"N-Never mind! There's nothing we can do about it!"

As if emphasizing something to someone, Akane Shinjo took a deep breath, applied the shampoo evenly, and then rinsed her hair.

Then apply shower gel and wash your body.

After you've finished these actions, feel free to soak in the bathtub for a while.

After hesitating for a long time, she reluctantly put on the sportswear she had worn in Nanxiang, without even taking a sniff of it.

but...

Wearing her old sportswear from Nanxiang always made her feel uncomfortable all over.

It's like just breathing.

They could all smell the same scent on Nanxiang Shi.

It made her feel uneasy.

Her face was flushed, and she seemed to have done something wrong as she quietly walked out of the bathroom.

Then he saw Nango Toki sitting at the table, holding up a manuscript, frowning, seemingly lost in thought.

Um...?

That is...?

Akane Shinjo blinked her crimson eyes in surprise.

She was very familiar with that original manuscript.

It was the original manuscript that Nanxiang had mentioned using to prop up the table.

What exactly does this guy want to do by taking this out now?

Are you suggesting we use her writing to mock her again?

Isn't this personality just too awful?

Thinking this, Shinjo Akane quietly and stealthily approached Nango Toki from behind.

then.

Shinjo Akane was stunned when she looked at her.

The original manuscript was now covered with dense annotations.

Nango meticulously documented in the original manuscript which parts could be modified and which plot points could be improved.

"..." Akane Shinjo's expression became very subtle.

That person constantly berates themselves.

Nango Toki, who looked at him with obvious disdain.

He's actually helping me improve my novel's script?

This was something she had never expected.

She thought the man in front of her was only good at making her angry.

"Have you looked at it enough? The new clause?"

"Uh..."

Nanxiang suddenly spoke up.

This startled Akane Shinjo, who was still intently watching.

Then her face flushed involuntarily, and she opened her mouth, "Um... Nanxiang, didn't you say you only intended to treat this manuscript as..."

Placemat... to be honest, Akane Shinjo really can't bring herself to say that word.

"It's obviously impossible that it's meant to be a placemat; it's something that was created with care."

Nanxiang casually replied and put away her manuscript.

"Is that right?"

I don't know why, but I'm pursued by many boys in my class, who fawn over me in all sorts of ways.

But those things never caused her any psychological fluctuation.

But it was only when he was in Nanxiang that he uttered those words.

Akane Shinjo could clearly feel an indescribable joy running through her heart.

Perhaps it was because his original manuscript was valued by Nango Toki.

Or perhaps it's for some other reason that I can't explain.

This feeling is really strange!

Something's really wrong!

She was clearly the woman who had always been at the top of the emotional food chain.

Any boy should be willing to take the initiative to communicate with you and help you.
