They all have hidden attributes!

With just one sentence, he dispelled the overwhelming drowsiness and woke Takahashi Makoto from his meltingly lazy state.

He immediately sat up, adopting a resistant attitude, and looked at her with a look of confirmation: "Ah Ye, something's wrong with you."

"Tsk."

Uesugi Maya's face instantly darkened, radiating an aura of distance: "Why are you refusing me? Haven't I been someone you can rely on?"

Faced with her reproachful gaze, Takahashi Makoto felt a mix of emotions.

At the sports festival, Uesugi Maya lived up to his trust, managing everything perfectly and taking great care of him in his daily life.

But the word "compliance" not only makes people feel embarrassed, but also gives the feeling of a hunter setting a trap.

If you answer incorrectly, Uesugi Maya will definitely throw a tantrum.

“I request to use a wish card.” Makoto Takahashi took a wish card out of his pants pocket and handed it to her.

Seeing that he carried a wishing card with him, Uesugi Maya's expression softened, but she still didn't want to give Takahashi Makoto a friendly look.

She curled her lip, took out a black pen, and drew a five-pointed star on the wishing card: "I was just about to correct you, this isn't the first time I've given you a lap pillow."

“This isn’t the last time.” Takahashi Makoto took back the wish card and gave her a smug smile.

Upon arriving at the college, the competition venue moved from the gymnasium back to the playground. Today's competitions were much more interesting than the previous two days, including tug-of-war, three-legged races, and obstacle courses...

Laughter and cheerful voices filled the air under the clear sky, creating a lively autumn atmosphere.

The last event in the afternoon was the kangaroo jump, where people stand inside a large sack, holding the opening with both hands, and jump forward. It's easy to fall if you don't have good balance.

The final showdown has begun between Group C of Year 1 and Group A of Year 2, who have been vying for the top spot in the standings.

In the end, it was Hina Nekoya who won. She took first place with ease and didn't even realize where the difficulty lay.

After the awards ceremony, the chairman delivered a speech, and the noise dissipated in the cool autumn evening breeze, marking the end of the three-day sports festival.

Makoto Takahashi and Yuki Tachimi arrived at the student council president's office and sat side by side on the soft sofa, drinking black tea and waiting for Haruna Nekoya to come and make a wish on behalf of Class 1-C.

There was a knock on the door as the sky turned a bluish-purple, not quite dark.

"Please come in."

As soon as Makoto Takahashi finished speaking, Hina Nekoya and Kaori Hanakawa pushed open the door and walked in. Miyuki Mitachi was also there, and the two greeted her politely.

"You are Chengjun's friends, so there's no need to be so polite."

Tachimi Yuki gracefully held up the black tea, smiling gently as she asked, "Have you thought about your wish for the sports festival?"

Although Nekoya Hina was incited by Hanakawa Kaori to want to get the most points, she realized after calming down that it was completely impossible and she didn't want to put Takahashi Makoto in a difficult position.

So she discussed it with Hanakawa Kaori, and after getting the consent of her classmates, she changed her wish.

"I hope the academy can hire a coach for the badminton team who can take responsibility and lead everyone to compete in the national tournament," said Hina Nekoya solemnly.

In principle, students cannot choose their own coaches and can only follow the arrangements of the academy, so this wish is not wasted here.

Her wish was reasonable, and more importantly, it had nothing to do with Makoto Takahashi. Tachibana Yuki's resentment at being deprived of first place in points dissipated considerably in an instant.

"Sure, the academy will fully respect the opinions of the current badminton team members regarding the selection of coaches."

Tachibana Yuki readily agreed, her beautiful azure eyes turning to Hanakawa Kaori with a questioning gaze: "Kaori, did you buy so many points because you want to continue playing badminton?"

"No, I originally planned to have the college pay my rent so I could move in with my brother."

Hanakawa Kaori met Tachimi Yuki's suddenly dangerous gaze and sat down next to Takahashi Makoto: "However, I have already achieved my main goal. Uesugi-nee said to learn to quit while you're ahead."

As she spoke, she raised her chin defiantly and asked Takahashi Makoto, "Can we go to my brother's apartment to play games tonight?"

"Don't stay up too late."

Takahashi Makoto lightly tapped her head with a chop to the neck, put his other arm around Tachimi Yuki's waist, and turned to look at her: "I'll continue to stay at your place this week."

“Okay, I’ll welcome you anytime, Mr. Cheng.”

Yuki Tachibana agreed with a sweet, drawn-out tone, but her eyes were filled with hostility as she looked at Hanakawa Kaori: "Kaori, aren't you good enough to me? If you like game consoles, I can buy them for you too."

"That being said, I still feel like this isn't quite right." Hanakawa Kaori rejected her attempt to bribe her, her tone somewhat meaningful.

Chapter 143 Go Forward, Hell Girl!

On the first Saturday of October, a cold autumn rain fell in Tokyo.

Lifting his heavy eyelids, Makoto Takahashi found himself looking up at the hill covered by a shirt and the innocent face of Yuki Tachimi.

She was looking at him with loving, inclusive eyes, her long eyelashes fluttering gently, her pink lips slightly parted, and her sweet whispers made his heart beat a little faster.

"woke up?"

"How long have I been asleep?" Makoto Takahashi awoke from his hazy sleep.

The two were in the top-floor office of the company in the port area. They had stayed at Tachimi's house last night and were accompanying the young lady to work today. They fell asleep comfortably while enjoying a lap pillow.

"After about an hour, her sleeping face is so cute."

Tachikami gently tapped his cheek with her fingertip, her voice so soft it was as if she didn't want to disturb the tranquil atmosphere of the rainy day: "Isn't there a saying that if you're going to get married, you should definitely choose someone whose sleeping face is cute?"

"The TV series you watched last night?"

"Yes, it's a classic line."

"No wonder it sounded familiar."

Makoto Takahashi sat up, yawned sleepily, and headed to the bathroom: "I'm going to wash my face. I made plans with Yoru and Hina today. Is Reiko still not up?"

As the weather gets colder, the comfort of being in bed increases dramatically.

Of course, Kashima Reiko wouldn't stay in bed because of this; it was Takahashi Makoto who insisted on dragging her to do morning exercises after arriving in the port area.

After letting out a cry like a dying swan, the maid fell into a dazed state and was unable to wake up for a while, so Takahashi Masashi gave her the bed in the lounge.

"not yet."

Tachikami Yuki picked up the warm black tea, brought it to her pink lips, swallowed a mouthful, and asked his retreating figure, "How does Makoto-kun view Sayo now?"

Makoto Takahashi went into the bathroom, turned on the tap, and scooped up the cool water, instantly dispelling his sleepiness.

I raised my wrist; the time displayed on the watch face was slightly past 9 a.m.

He grabbed a towel hanging nearby, dried his face, and turned to meet Tachibana Yuki's inquiring gaze with a refreshed expression.

"She is one of the most talented girls I have ever met. At this age, she has become a bestselling author and has the potential to become a great person. However, heroes are as numerous as carp crossing a river."

"More specific?" Tachikami Yuki's expression tightened slightly.

"Not as good as you."

"That's not what I meant. What have you been doing with her lately, Cheng-kun?"

“Aye has a strong ability to withstand pressure and make decisions under pressure, and she is calm. Now she should learn to maintain one or more long-term healthy interpersonal relationships.”

Makoto Takahashi made no attempt to hide anything from Yuki Tatami; this was all he wanted to do for Maya Uesugi.

Seeing that his expression was open and honest, and that he did not lie in the slightest, Li Jianxing's azure eyes flickered slightly as he began to plot a wicked scheme.

"Makoto is indeed very 'righteous'. In that case, having Sayo act as student council president should be helpful to her."

"Wouldn't it be better to just give it to her directly?"

Makoto Takahashi strode toward the lounge and said casually, "Anyway, Yoru is in charge of the student council now, and she and Reiko work well together."

“It’s different. Even Hanaori understands this principle.”

Tachibana Yuki raised her right hand, examining her slender, fair fingers, a sly smile playing on her lips: "Starting next week, let Saya move into the student council president's office."

“She will replace all the furniture with new ones first.” Takahashi Makoto’s lips twitched slightly.

"During the sports festival, didn't Sayo learn to bring her own cushion? And her sharp tongue has also toned down a lot. It's all thanks to Makoto-kun."

Even if you say that, it still feels very distant.

As he spoke, Makoto Takahashi pushed open the door and entered the lounge. Reiko Kashima was already dressed, but she was still lying on the bed staring blankly at the ceiling, looking lazy, with the hazy feeling in her blue eyes not yet completely gone.

As always, she favored gender-neutral outfits, wearing a black oversized knit sweater on top and cargo pants on the bottom. With her short black hair tied up, she would definitely be mistaken for a trendy, aloof, handsome guy walking the streets of Shibuya.

"Do you want to rest a little longer?" Makoto Takahashi asked, sitting down on the edge of the bed.

"I've already put on my shoes," Kashima Reiko said flatly, raising her leg to indicate her thick-soled sneakers.

She meant that she was ready to leave at any time, but lacked the motivation right now; this was the maid's unique way of being coquettish.

Perhaps because she didn't want to be too sentimental, it carries the meaning of "[It's okay if I don't care]".

Makoto Takahashi leaned back and took her hand, turning to look at her: "It's raining outside, how about we meet up with them after the movie starts?"

From this angle, Reiko Kashima's profile looks exceptionally cute.

The original plan was to go shopping together in Omotesando, have a picnic at Yoyogi Park at noon, and go to see a movie in the afternoon. In short, most of the time would be spent on group activities.

The plans were changed at the last minute, which Kashima Reiko wasn't used to.

But now that she has time to herself, she is instantly filled with energy and leaps out of bed.

“Let’s go.” She pulled Takahashi Makoto to his feet.

"To Omotesando, or is there somewhere else you'd like to go?"

“Hmm…” Kashima Reiko hesitated earnestly.

Aside from playing the drums, she didn't have any particular hobbies, and when the two went on a date alone, they couldn't think of anything interesting to do.

"How about going to the arcade? Or maybe we can go shopping at the mall in Shibuya; the temperature has dropped quite a bit lately."

Makoto Takahashi patiently made the suggestion, and Reiko Kashima nodded expressionlessly, confirming only one thing: "Let's go."

After greeting Tachibana Yuki, the two took the elevator downstairs and went directly to the parking lot on the basement level.

I got into the back seat of the white sedan, closed the door, started the car, and slowly drove out of the parking lot.

The entire sky was covered with layers of dark clouds, and countless raindrops kept hitting the car windows. All that could be heard was the noisy sound of rain. The whole world seemed to be shrouded in a hazy curtain of water.

Kashima Reiko looked out the car window at the street, the neon lights reflecting fragmented light in her blue eyes.

"I thought you would start to become indifferent."

Kashima Reiko has a negative attitude towards relationships and likes to give up, which is why she seeks stability.

She thought that Makoto Takahashi would have gotten tired of her by now, but to her surprise, his attitude has been more considerate and patient than before.
