All the goddesses in the world are lusting after my body.

In our anime class, the anime the teacher showed today was Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba the Movie: Mugen Train.

Because this film has never been able to obtain the right to be released.

Therefore, the copyright holder simply chose to cut the movie into a seven-episode anime series.

The teacher should use two class periods plus playing the movie at 1.5x speed, racing against time, to barely finish showing this Demon Slayer movie.

Jiang Tang had long heard of this movie's fame; it was said that its total box office in Japan even surpassed that of "Spirited Away," which had consistently topped the charts.

Without even looking at it, he knew it was a tearjerker masterpiece, so he turned his head and suddenly asked Liu Qingqing beside him.

"Did you bring enough tissues?"

"Eh... what does that mean?"

Jiang Tang smiled slightly but did not respond.

Anyway, Liu Qingqing will eventually understand the deeper meaning behind his words.

As expected, by the end of the movie, although Liu Qingqing tried her best to restrain herself, she still couldn't stop the tears from streaming down her face, and her shoulders were trembling.

Jiang Tang's resilience was not bad; although he felt a lump in his throat, he did not cry.

As for why, it's probably because he had already been spoiled by audiences and readers of the original comics through various channels.

If we already know which character will get their own plot-driven death.

The impact and emotion created by this person with their life are not as great as when they were completely unaware at the beginning.

In addition, Liu Qingqing hadn't brought enough tissues, and in the end, she was quite embarrassed to borrow Jiang Tang's to wipe her tears.

"Thanks……"

"It's nothing. Is Chu Yun very busy lately?" Jiang Tang asked, glancing at the screen.

The climax of the whole series has passed, and the end is just around the corner, so it's okay not to be so focused.

Moreover, class is almost over.

“Yun’s mom has been quite busy lately… apparently she has a big order. I tried to find her, but I couldn’t reach her. She’s probably sleeping at the company.”

Liu Qingqing also showed a hint of concern.

At the same time, she couldn't help but glance at Jiang Tang with a slight hint of annoyance.

“You should... show more concern for my mom. Even if you can’t find the time, it would be good to leave her a few voice messages.”

"Well... I will."

Jiang Tang felt that the atmosphere between him and Liu Qingqing was strange.

Perhaps it was because they were talking about Liu Chuyun.

He is Liu Qingqing's adoptive mother's boyfriend.

It's only natural that she would feel awkward being with herself.

However, Liu Qingqing seemed to have noticed this as well, and coughed lightly before quickly changing the subject.

"You did a great job at the sports meet yesterday, congratulations!"

"It was just a normal performance, but thank you anyway."

"By the way, I've also finished watching 'Natsume's Book of Friends,' which you recommended to me last time."

"So, it should suit your taste perfectly."

"Mm!" Liu Qingqing nodded, just as she was about to launch into a long-winded explanation of her thoughts after watching the film.

But he found that Jiang Tang's gaze had already shifted from his face and returned to the big screen.

A strange sense of loss suddenly enveloped Liu Qingqing's heart.

Moreover, in fact, most of the time in these two classes, I took the initiative to communicate with Jiang Tang.

What exactly is the reason, and why do they care about Jiang Tang's feelings and opinions?

Even Liu Qingqing herself couldn't figure it out.

Or perhaps she understands why, but simply refuses to admit it.

At some point, Liu Qingqing gradually let go of her prejudices against Jiang Tang.

I realized that he was also a very nice guy.

In the past, Liu Qingqing's evaluation of the boys around her was at most "not bad".

The phrase "very good" was used specifically to describe Jiang Tang... which speaks volumes.

Moreover, the unexpected encounter at the bar last time caused Liu Qingqing to keep thinking about Jiang Tang without realizing it.

Girls' thoughts are hard to understand and inexplicable. In places where Jiang Tang wasn't paying attention, Liu Qingqing was actually watching him.

I followed his every move and every smile, and I also cheered for him on the track and field.

There were so many people cheering him on that he was destined not to see her.

Even when discussing topics with him, only when it involves Yun's mother could Jiang Tang elicit noticeable emotional fluctuations.

But I don't seem to receive the same treatment.

In Jiang Tang's heart, I wouldn't say I had no status at all, but I was probably only slightly better than a so-called "stranger".

But I look so much like Yun's mom...

Whenever I think of the scenes and moments when Yun's mother and Jiang Tang were together, I am suddenly reminded of the image of myself being embraced by Jiang Tang in my mind...

Liu Qingqing knew this was a misconception, and that she shouldn't have thought this way.

However, it is difficult to prevent the brain from having its own thoughts.

Or rather, the self deep inside, a self that doesn't need to pretend.

As she thought about it, Liu Qingqing's eyes welled up with tears of grievance, and her face flushed red again.

She tried to get a tissue to wipe herself, but found that she had run out.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that I've been receiving care from Jiang Tang ever since we watched the movie together.

Whether it was offering him a tissue or subconsciously leaning on his shoulder afterward, Jiang Tang didn't push her away...

This bad person, isn't this just making people more misunderstood and leading them further and further down the wrong path?

If Jiang Tang had just restrained his charm and gentleness even slightly, Liu Qingqing thought, perhaps she wouldn't have fallen to such a state.

Even if all the blame is placed on Jiang Tang.

The sadness in Liu Qingqing's heart remained as intense as ever.

She bit her lip, letting tears well up in her eyes, without making a sound.

She seemed afraid of being noticed by Jiang Tang beside her.

It's as if as long as you endure until the end of get out of class, you can pretend you never cared.

This allows you to hide your excessive emotions very well.

Even gradually, you start to downplay it and give it up...

Tears gradually blurred my vision.

Just after this decision was made.

The tissue that was suddenly handed to her ruined Liu Qingqing's efforts once again.

Jiang Tang still noticed her, although he probably mistakenly thought she was crying because she was thinking of the plot of the anime.

He didn't hand me a tissue because I'm that important to him.

It was simply out of his usual gentleness.

But sometimes, how a person thinks is not important.

How he treats himself and what he does are the most important things.

Liu Qingqing did hope to turn back, otherwise she wouldn't have broken down in tears at the thought of giving up on the relationship.

Even if it was a stubborn act, a series of mistakes.

Yet it was also the flame that Liu Qingqing was willing to be a moth drawn to.

Ignore the burning pain.

It's just that the warmth makes it impossible not to immerse yourself in it.

Liu Qingqing used the tissue Jiang Tang handed her to wipe her tears and nose, though they were still slightly red.

Jiang Tang kept nagging beside me, and even his nagging felt warm to the heart.

"This teacher is really something, always showing such tear-jerking anime."

"I'd still recommend some lighthearted slice-of-life anime for you to watch. Have you heard of 'Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid'? Or just 'Nichijou', I really like it."

The girl was already able to smile as she listened to his words.

He said this in a trembling voice.

"Okay~ I'll watch it. I'll watch all the anime Jiang Tang recommends..."

"However, after class later... could Jiang Tang come with me for a meal?"

“Yun’s mom hasn’t been home for a long time, and I’m always very lonely by myself.”

"...It's not impossible."

Jiang Tang hesitated for a moment, but still agreed.

After all, he felt it was his responsibility to take care of Liu Qingqing.

As Liu Chuyun's boyfriend.

Also, as... Liu Qingqing's uncle?

Or something even more outrageous... "adoptive father"?

Jiang Tangguang was thinking about the strange relationship between himself and Liu Qingqing.

He couldn't help but smile helplessly.
