I feel like another problem girl.

A particularly tricky type.

Bai Li breathed a sigh of relief and changed the subject, "This 'Xiao Xiang' you mentioned must be very important to you, right?"

His original intention was just to gather some information and confirm whether the other party was related to his secretary.

But these words seemed to have triggered some taboo.

The gray-haired girl named "Takamatsu Deng"'s face darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye. She stammered a few times, suddenly hugged her schoolbag beside her, stood up and wanted to run.

Her movements were so hurried and panicky that she lowered her head and didn't even dare to look at the road. A female clerk carrying a tray couldn't avoid her and was bumped into.

Tea and desserts spilled all over him, even the clean table and floor were not spared. Shiina Riki clutched his chest, about to angrily scold the other party for being blind, but when he saw clearly that the customer who bumped into him was hit, he froze for a moment:

"lamp?!"

ps: I have a slight fever and need to go to the hospital. The update will be later.

Chapter 240 You guy actually bullied Deng!

"Deng, why are you here?!"

The black-haired clerk with teardrop moles at the corners of his eyes, a strong personality and a serious demeanor, was completely different from his usual indifference at this moment. His beautiful violet eyes were full of surprise and concern. He grabbed the gray-haired girl's hand, as if he was afraid that she would run away.

"I haven't seen you for a long time since then. How have you been recently? You seem to have lost some weight. Is it because you haven't been eating well? It's all because of me who didn't take good care of you..."

"Li...Xi?"

"Yeah, I'm here!"

Shiina Riki held her hand, and his eyes and brows softened, but she soon remembered something, and her eyes suddenly turned cold, like a sword drawn from its sheath.

"You were so flustered just now that you didn't even bother to look at the road. Is there someone trying to bully you?"

"No, that's not the case..."

The penguin girl named "Takamatsu Deng" was a little overwhelmed by her enthusiasm and could only reluctantly and stumblingly answer, "It's me...my own fault..."

But Shiina Riki didn't take her words seriously at all.

In her heart, Deng is a fragile and lovable girl like a small animal. She is someone who needs her protection and care. She is also a dandelion that needs to be carefully held in the palm of her hand. A slight breeze can hurt her, so it is never too much to cherish her.

She looked towards a seat in the corner, which was the direction where the light was escaping. There sat a slender figure, probably a boy. He looked vaguely familiar.

Shiina Riki didn't think much about it and strode over. His gentle expression turned gloomy again in front of the gray-haired girl.

"How dare you bully..."

Eh?

The rest of the words were stuck in her throat. When the boy turned around, the setting sun outside the window was just passing over his brow bone, and his jet-black eyelashes cast a crow-feather-like shadow on his cold white skin. The face immersed in the halo reminded her of the portrait of the Son of God hanging high in the church, which made the girl subconsciously take a half step back and even her voice softened.

"why you?"

"Ms. Shiina."

Bai Li nodded at her and greeted her indifferently, "Good afternoon."

"Good afternoon..."

All the anger disappeared without a trace, and Shiina Riki even looked a little embarrassed at this moment, not knowing where to put his hands.

Her desire to seek justice for Deng was thrown out of her mind, and she suddenly realized that perhaps she had misunderstood.

After all, he... ahem, doesn't look like a bad guy at all, so how could he possibly bully Deng?

At the same time, the little penguin who was slow to react finally came to his senses.

He quickly stood in front of Baili, with his arms outstretched, like a mother hen fighting an eagle, his face full of tension: "Baili classmate... didn't bully me, Lixi... don't..."

Shiina Riki: “…”

Facing Takamatsu Deng's uneasy expression, the girl felt as if her knee was hit by an arrow.

What's with this atmosphere where she's the only bad guy?

"Ehhhhh?"

Before she could be depressed for too long, Rinrinko, who was hiding behind the bar, also heard the noise here. Looking at the black tea and cake spilled on the floor, she felt a headache, but she still immediately pulled Lixi to apologize to the customer.

"It's all my fault..." Gao Songdeng waved his hands in panic, "It was me who bumped into Li Xi..."

“Actually, I have a problem too.”

Shiina Riki was silent for two seconds, then finally spoke, taking some of the responsibility on himself, "It's my fault that I didn't dodge in time, otherwise this wouldn't have happened."

This scene, which was like a blame-sharing meeting, made Rinrinko laugh and cry, but since the guests said so, she didn't dwell on it any further.

First, he and Lixi cleaned up the messy scene, and sent the girl to change into clean clothes. Then he apologized and said that the accident had disturbed their mood, and all losses would be paid by the store, and they would deliver another meal to them later.

He is very meticulous and has a friendly attitude. No wonder he has become a store manager at such a young age.

Bai Li nodded and gave Rinrinzi a polite smile, to which the latter responded with a blushing "No, no, no, no, no, you're welcome! It's all my responsibility!!".

Only after the store manager, unable to contain her shyness, ran away did he look back at the girl in front of him.

After this little incident, Takamatsu, who wanted to escape, was forced to stay. At this moment, he lowered his head silently. His short gray hair looked fluffy in the sunset, and he looked more like a dazed little penguin that had strayed from the flock.

Bai Li rubbed his eyebrows.

I had just asked casually, wanting to know if she was related to my secretary. Who would have thought that the girl would react so strongly, as if she had been stabbed in the wound, and her first reaction was to escape.

In this situation, he couldn't force himself to continue the topic.

...Forget it, it will be the same if I ask Xiaoxiang in person when I get home.

For now, let's just treat it as a normal afternoon tea.

Bai Li no longer talked about topics that might hurt the girl, but just chatted normally. It didn't take long for him to figure out Gao Songdeng's situation.

Like me, he is a freshman at Xiuhua Academy from Class D. He is also the president of the Astronomy Club and has a hobby of collecting all kinds of weird little objects.

It was the first time he had met such an honest girl. She answered whatever he asked. It made people wonder if he asked her what color underwear she was wearing today, would she tell him the answer without any hesitation.

"Um, Baili-san."

After chatting for a while, the girl in front of him lowered her head, like a small animal that had made a mistake, and said hesitantly: "I should... go home..."

"now?"

Bai Li glanced at his phone. It was just past six in the afternoon, so it was actually still early.

But if you think about it, it's understandable. After all, not everyone can take a family photo like him without anyone in charge.

Takamatsu looks like the kind of good kid who lives under the wings of his parents, the type who goes home after school and never stays outside for too long.

He just nodded, didn't stop her, and just said, "Do you need me to take you there?"

Gao Songdeng shook his head hesitantly, paused, and then took out a round object from his school uniform pocket.

"This is for you."

Bai Li took it and took a look, and found that it was a very smooth pebble. It felt warm to the touch and seemed to still carry the girl's body temperature.

I feel like it would be suitable for skipping stones.

"Then I'll accept it."

He put the pebble away with his backhand and said goodbye, "Goodbye, Takamatsu-san."

"goodbye."

The gray-haired girl took one last reluctant look before trotting away.

After she left, some time passed.

Shiina Riki, wearing a new uniform, came over again with a tray.

"Deng, I came to see you... huh?"

Not seeing the familiar figure, the black-haired girl was slightly stunned.

Where's the lamp?

How can I use a lamp as big as mine?

Chapter 241 The Great God in the Galgame Field

"Are you looking for Takamatsu-san?"

Bai Li said, "She just left and should have gotten on the tram by now."

Go, go?

Shiina Riki was a little disappointed that he was unable to say goodbye to Deng.

Ever since CRYCHIC disbanded, she hasn't seen the adorable girl who was like a little animal for a long time.

Deng is an introvert by nature, and was severely attacked by a naturally evil blue-haired kid on the night of the Black Knife. He attributed all the reasons for the band's disbandment to his own problems, and has become more and more autistic since then.

Shiina Riki saw it all and was worried, but he had no good solution.

The only thing I can do is not to disturb her and avoid hurting her.

Now we finally meet again, but before I have time to say a few more words to her, we are separated again.

and……

Thinking of what happened just now, Shiina Riki sighed in his heart.

It was the first time she saw Deng defend a boy so much, even taking the initiative to stand in front of him, as if she was afraid of having a conflict with him.

It's really uncomfortable to feel that "the person you want to protect has to confront you for another person."

Obviously, she came first...

The drum players were in a sad mood.

However, when her eyes fell on the handsome boy sitting by the window, the girl fell silent again.

Even she herself can't explain it.

Is this bitterness in my heart because "Deng confronted me for other boys" or is it due to... some other reason?
