After hearing that Izumi had taken the initiative to withdraw his request, Toyokawa Shoko also took the opportunity to express her refusal, hoping that Izumi could change to a more normal request instead of such an offensive one.

"Well, can you put on the maid uniform first?"

"……Now?"

"Ah."

Faced with Quan's request, Toyokawa Shoko hesitated. From what Quan said, it seemed that he wanted her to do something in the image of a maid. But looking at Quan's clear eyes, she was silent for a moment, then quietly walked towards the study. After a moment, she appeared in front of Quan in the image of a maid.

While Shoko Toyokawa was changing clothes, Izumi found a piece of paper and a pen and wrote something on the paper. After Shoko Toyokawa appeared in front of him, he handed the note to Shoko Toyokawa.

When she saw the note that Quan handed to her, Toyokawa Shoko was a little surprised. She reached out to take it, her eyes fell on the note. After seeing the contents on the note, her expression suddenly became complicated.

The girl held the note tightly between her slender white fingers, pursed her lips tightly, and then looked at Quan with eyes full of confusion and suspicion.

"take note of it?"

Looking at Toyokawa Shoko's complicated expression, Quan's expression did not change at all, he just smiled at her.

"What's the meaning?"

"I saw a clip from a TV show before, and I felt very emotional about it, but... I've never seen it in real life. No one would say this to me, and even if Shuangshi said this, I wouldn't feel anything."

"..."

Looking at the young man in front of her, Toyokawa Shoko's expression seemed particularly complicated.

"So, when I say this, will it make you feel... special?"

“I don’t know, so I want to give it a try.”

Facing Toyokawa Shoko's question, Izumi remained calm and answered softly and gently.

Shoko Toyokawa, wearing a maid uniform, stood quietly in the living room. She fixed her eyes on Izumi in front of her. She slowly stretched out her hand and handed the note back to Izumi.

"..."

Looking at Toyokawa Shoko's reaction, Quan didn't say anything, but just took the note silently.

Then the living room fell into silence. Neither of them spoke, nor did they move. After a moment, Toyokawa Shoko seemed to have adjusted her mood. She took a deep breath, raised her head, and looked at Izumi in front of her.

"spring……"

With his eyes lowered, Quan looked at the blue-haired girl in front of him.

"You betrayed Shuangshi and chose me."

A tingling sensation arose from the bottom of Toyokawa Shoko's heart. She didn't know why she had such a feeling, but she only felt that her body was trembling slightly and her thoughts became pure white.

"So... please, stay with me forever."

The pleading words, as well as a hint of taboo and excitement, made Quan, who was sitting on the sofa, open his eyes slightly.

He originally just wanted to give it a try, but he didn't expect Toyokawa Shoko to be so emotional. He couldn't help but put himself into the picture, as if the two of them had really betrayed Nagasaki Sose. He was stunned for a moment, then smiled and clapped slowly.

“Excellent performance.”

Under the gaze of Toyokawa Shoko, Quan did not say anything like "as if it were real", because he knew that there were some emotions in the girl's reaction that could not be interpreted. Once he opened his mouth, it would be equivalent to denying the girl's feelings.

Being praised by Quan, Toyokawa Shoko pursed her lips slightly, avoided Quan's gaze, lowered her eyes, and remained silent.

"If her relationship with Shuangshi is restored, then next time, maybe I can try to get Shuangshi to say to her, 'Will we become sworn enemies or lifelong friends?' Well, it's probably impossible."

The entanglement between Toyokawa Shoko and Nagasaki Soyo cannot be resolved with just two words from him. In order to make Nagasaki Soyo completely forgive Toyokawa Shoko, it would be better to expect Takamatsu Tomo to take the initiative to say to everyone in the band, "I'll end it myself."

"Take a break."

Looking at Toyokawa Shoko who was silent there, Izumi stood up and poured her a cup of tea. Then the two of them sat quietly in the living room without saying a word, watching the sky outside the window change from azure to dim yellow.

In fact, there doesn’t need to be much communication. When two people are together, it’s more about feeling.

……

After entering September, the temperature gradually began to drop. Aine, who originally wore short-sleeved shirts, started to wear long-sleeved shirts and an autumn wool vest. She looked even cuter.

With the help of my mother, the signing matters of the apartment have basically been completed, and the only thing left is to move the furniture.

"Will all the items in this room be moved there?"

At nightfall, before she even went to bed, Aine entered Izumi's room again and asked her about the move.

"No, I will just take some daily necessities. The computer and other things will be left at home."

"Buy new ones?"

Chihaya Aine's eyes fell on Izumi, and she was a little confused.

"No, just enough is enough."

"……Oh."

Chihaya Aine, who had been thinking that she could go shopping with Izumi, looked a little lonely after hearing what Izumi said.

"It's almost the end of the month, right? You'll be moving there then. You'll be living there alone, right?"

"In most cases, that should be the case."

In response to his sister's question, Quan nodded slightly.

Nagasaki Soyo hopes that he will move out, but given her situation, she would not stay at his place every day. At most, when Ms. Nagasaki is unable to go home due to work and feels lonely, she would come to his place to spend the night.

The bedrooms in the three apartments that Aine and I had previously decided on were all a little small and not suitable for two people to live in. However, the apartment that we had decided on now had a large wardrobe that could easily hold the clothes of two people.

"most……"

After hearing her brother's answer, Chihaya Aine looked a little disgusted, but helpless.

Nagasaki Soyo and her brother have already confirmed their relationship, so it is not her turn as a younger sister to interfere. Judging from her parents, they don't have any objection to Nagasaki Soyo's behavior.

"Why don't you just get married now? Husband and wife living together won't have anything to say."

When Chihaya Aine finished her words, she suddenly noticed that her brother was looking out the window. She was stunned for a moment, and following Izumi's gaze, she also looked out the window, but saw nothing.

"what?"

"nothing."

When she turned around to look at her brother again, she found that he had already withdrawn his gaze, leaving Chihaya Aine filled with confusion.

“Sometimes he does something weird.”

In response to her sister's evaluation of herself, Izumi did not give an answer, and Chihaya Aine lay down on Izumi's bed again, feeling the breath belonging to Izumi, and she slowly looked at Izumi.

"Once you move into the apartment, I'll be staying there overnight, too."

"It doesn't matter to me."

"Then it's decided!"

She couldn't decide on other things, but she thought it would be okay to spend the night in Quan's apartment before leaving for Nagasaki.

After staying in Quan's room for a while, Chihaya Aine returned to her own room, and Quan also slowly lay down on the bed late at night, closed her eyes, and cherished every night before moving.

Because he just moved out to live alone, he didn't invite anyone on the day he moved into the apartment. Only Izumi's parents and Aine came to Izumi's apartment, helped to tidy up, and enjoyed the dinner that Izumi prepared himself in his apartment.

"I'm staying here tonight."

"What are you staying for?"

After hearing her daughter's words, Mrs. Chihaya looked at her daughter with strange eyes.

"I'm afraid Quan will be lonely."

"..."

After hearing her daughter's reasons, Mrs. Chihaya fell silent and then sighed.

"Izumi has started to live on his own and doesn't need you to accompany him."

"It's just one night! What's the big deal! I want to stay!"

Chihaya Aine also became dissatisfied and frowned at her mother, which made the two men fall into silence. The man who was a father and a husband looked at Izumi.

"Let Aine stay tonight. I won't be home much these days, so it'll be hard for us to see each other. She probably has something to say."

"..."

Mrs. Chihaya hesitated to speak, but after staring at Izumi for a while, she sighed softly.

"Well, she didn't stay overnight either—"

"I'm ready."

Under her mother's gaze, Chihaya Aine walked over to the sofa, picked up the backpack she had brought with her, and took out the pajamas inside, leaving Mrs. Chihaya silent.

"We'll wait for you at home tomorrow."

The man, as the head of the family, did not stop his daughter. After leaving a few words, he and his wife left Izumi's apartment, leaving Chihaya Aine couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and slumped in Izumi's apartment.

"Ah... You are not children anymore. I don't know what you are worried about."

Chihaya Aine couldn't help but complain about her parents, but Izumi's eyes fell on her sister, but she didn't say anything.

"This place is completely different from home, and the environment outside is also... It feels very special... Can I come to your place often in the future?"

Chihaya Aine, who was lying on the sofa, felt the brand new soft sofa, her eyes fell on Izumi, and she began to "take advantage of it".

Chapter 454: If I had known earlier, I would have.

Hiroto Shioyama came to Izumi's apartment and brought a package of light novels and comics.

He thought that Izumi might feel lonely after moving to a new residence without her previous interpersonal relationships and entertainment activities, so he picked out some comics and light novels from his bookshelf and gave them to Izumi as a gift for living alone.

The two chatted in the apartment for a while, and then Hiroto Shioyama felt bored, so he went out with Izumi to relax. It was not until the evening that he said goodbye to Izumi and left.

It didn't take long after Izumi returned to his apartment that Nagasaki Shoyo came to Izumi's apartment.

“It’s the gift of living alone.”

Nagasaki Soyo was holding a bouquet of flowers in her hand and a gift box in her arms. After entering Izumi's apartment, Nagasaki Soyo opened the gift box. Inside was an exquisite plain vase. The bouquet was put into the vase and placed in Izumi's living room.

In the face of what Nagasaki Soyo did, Quan just looked at her quietly until she put the vase away. Then they sat together in the living room and chatted for a long time.

"I will probably live here until the end of my high school career. After I go to college, I probably won't live here anymore."
