My Romance Simulation with Them

Her red hair, like a bonfire burning in winter, makes you instinctively want to get closer.

......

Inside a coffee shop with light brown wooden decor on the street corner.

"Unbelievable! Absolutely unbelievable! Is Senior Nango some kind of idiot?!"

While making incredulous noises, Kita Ikuyo hurriedly wrapped Nango Toki's frozen, red hands with her own, grumbling.

Yes.

Is Nango Shi an idiot?

They actually waited for me in this kind of weather.

"Doesn't Senior Nanxiang care about his own body at all?"

With that rebuke, Kita Ikuyo glared angrily at Nango Toki.

"I don't think Yudai has the right to criticize me, does she?"

Nango laughed and grasped Kita Ikuyo's hand, which was also red from the cold.

The red-haired girl was just like him, and might even have arrived at the scene earlier.

Her palms were also cold, and if you looked closely, you could see some water stains from the melting snow on the shoulders of her brown coat.

"Well--"

It seemed that he realized he had been exposed.

Kita Ikuyo Shiro's handsome face instantly turned red: "I... I was just worried about Nango-senpai!"

She turned her face away.

"is it?"

Looking at Kita Ikuyo's appearance.

Nanxiang smiled slightly: "Then I really have to thank Yudai for her concern. But besides this matter, there is another thing I would like to ask Yudai."

"Is there anything else?"

Hearing Nango Toki's words, Kita Ikuyo turned her head, tilting her head in confusion.

"Yes, there is another very important thing."

Nango nodded: "What about Yudai's friend, as promised?"

"Well--?!"

The moment those words were spoken...

Just moments ago, Kita Ikuyo was all angry and about to blame Nango Toki, but her expression suddenly froze.

She really wanted to tell Nanxiang that she had been called over by a friend to relay the message, and that he should stop waiting.

But the words were barely on the tip of her tongue before Kita Ikuyo already knew what was going on.

Such a small lie could not possibly fool Nanxiang Shi.

On the contrary, it's more accurate to say...

Even though they already knew back in Nanxiang that her 'friend' was a fictional character who didn't exist, they still kept making fun of her using this character...

This man!

That's absolutely malicious!

Why did I have to advise him to avoid the snow?

Why not just let him freeze to death there?

Kita Ikuyo covered her head, feeling like she was a complete idiot.

But given her personality, she would never say something like that.

She could only look at Nanxiang with those pale golden eyes, appearing submissive and weak.

That expression was essentially her way of making a statement.

Her so-called 'friends' were actually just a complete lie.

This is fully reflected in that look in his eyes.

Kita Ikuyo originally thought that by giving in like this, she would gain Nango Toki's understanding and thus stop pursuing the matter of her lying.

but--

"I would rather hear Yuyo say it herself than communicate with eye contact."

There was no room for compromise.

Nanxiang sat up instead and leaned closer.

So close, so close, so close, so close!

Feeling the closeness of the southern countryside.

Kita Ikuyo, who was already in a submissive state, began to have her heart pounding rapidly.

As someone who always pays attention to her appearance and looks, she naturally understands the charm of the black-haired young man in front of her.

The other person's already well-proportioned features appeared somewhat profound under the light, and the accumulation of reading over the years had sculpted an indescribable intellectual air.

From her angle, one could glimpse her collarbone beneath the coat collar, and her shapely, fair wrists revealed when the sleeves were lifted—

Great! It looks great!

Whether it's his masculinity or his intellectual and refined temperament, it perfectly matches Kita Ikuyo's strengths.

The key was the teasing smile in his eyes when he looked over.

This caused Kita Ikuyo to lose her ability to resist in an instant, and the world seemed to lose its mystery at that moment.

to be honest.

She's a girl too, and she also likes to look at handsome boys and pretty girls.

Nanxiang happened to be the type of person she liked.

This moment.

She had an urge to show off to the other women in the coffee shop who were also staring in amazement, saying, "This is my boyfriend."

No, no, no.

Calm down! Calm down, Kita Ikuyo!

Think about it carefully.

Senior Nango is pressuring you to give an answer.

Boys who semi-coerce girls are very dangerous!

You mustn't fall for his tricks!

She thought this to herself, but still turned her head away shyly: "I...that...friend lied."

weak!

This attitude is far too weak!

He just opened his mouth.

The little figure in Kita Ikuyo's mind was already covering his head, repenting for his weak attitude when facing Nango.

Isn't this just a plan to completely let the other party bully us?

Fortunately, things in Nanxiang weren't as bad as she had imagined.

After hearing her reply, the other person smiled with satisfaction, nodded, and sat back down in their seat.

call--

He subconsciously exhaled.

Kita Ikuyo felt that...

It's better not to launch surprise attacks on guys like Nanxiang Shi.

Because no matter how you look at it, it's really not good for her heart.

She lowered her head and took a sip of coffee, trying her best to appear nonchalant.

But before she could finish her disguise...

Then, Nanxiang over there spoke up again, seemingly lost in thought.

"So, Yudai actually likes me, right?"

"Hey?!"

Kita Ikuyo let out another surprised sound.

She has lost count of how many times she has made such sounds each day.

But the sight of Nanxiang before her forced her to utter such a voice.

She coughed several times in a row, and then she heard Nanxiang Shi look up and ask her with a smile, "It's not hard to tell from what Yudai said, is it? Your so-called 'friend' is actually yourself... So it's not wrong to conclude that Yudai likes me, is it?"

"...That's definitely true..."

Even Kita Ikuyo couldn't deny Nango Toki's words at this moment.

Denying it won't help.

Because this whole thing was her doing—digging a hole for herself with lies and then burying herself in it.

Her eyes looked at Nanxiang Shi with some unease.

The other person now knows that they like him.

Based on his consistently malicious attitude...

I don't know how to treat her next...
