People in Shijiao, the man behind Ichinose

"Actually..."

Yuan Yuyuan seemed to have thought of something happy, and his face regained that creepy smile:

"It would be nice to watch a movie while holding Fanbo in my arms, right?"

"Hold...Hold?!!!"

"It really is not possible, this request is still too unreasonable (sad)"

“No!” Ichinose Hoba rubbed her hands nervously, then closed her eyes and opened her arms: “If…if this is what Yu Yuan wanted…it’s okay for you to hug me.”

Yuan Yuyuan, who only took a gamble but didn't expect to make a fortune, opened his eyes wide and said, "Really? Really? Really?!"

"Really, really."

"Fanbo, I love you!"

"Love....me?"

Ichinose Honami allowed Gen Yuyuan to hug her like a piece of wood. After a long time, she finally reacted and hugged the other person back.

"Thanks...."

"Hanbo?"

"No, nothing." Ichinose Hoba smiled and shook her head. She buried herself in Gen Yuyuan's arms, greedily plundering the scent of the other person. After replenishing her energy, she raised her head and said with a smile:

"I mean, thank you for loving me."

"What nonsense are you talking about again?"

Before coming to Gaodu Development, Yuan Yuyuan had never imagined that there would be such a girl who was so close to perfection, but completely looked down on herself in her heart, and no one knew about it.

In everyone's eyes, Ichinose Honami is a generous and gentle girl. She is very outstanding, so outstanding that even in a place where classes are enemies, she can still make people who are supposed to be enemies praise her.

She is easy-going, yet she makes people feel a little distant - not because she is pretending, but because it is incredible for such a person to have such a personality.

There are only a few people in the top classes who can be said to be the backbone of the class - Katsuragi Kōhei and Sakayanagi Arisu from Class A, Minamoto Ubuchi and Ichinose Honami from Class B, and the only one left is Ryuen Sho.

Unlike other people who are proud of their superiority, Ichinose Honami can get along well with anyone, which seems impossible to others.

It is not easy to maintain a good relationship with everyone in the class. Even people like Hirata Yosuke are often slandered in some boys' groups, not to mention Ichinose Honami, who is very popular in the whole grade.

Others may not know, but Gen Yuyuan knows it very clearly. According to Miss Succubus, the only black spot of Ichinose Honami is that she competes with her for men. Apart from this, Gen Yuyuan has never heard any bad words about her from Kushida Kikyo, who would scold her for being indecisive even when Hirata Yosuke is mentioned.

But this is also what he is worried about. Gen Yuyuan doesn't care if a good person does a bad thing. He is mainly worried that Ichinose Honami will be under too much pressure.

The previous little angel, who was under a lot of pressure, was going further and further down the path of evil, and he didn't want this big angel to turn evil as well.

Seeing that Yuan Yuyuan was lost in thought, Ichinose Hoba, who was confused, poked his face and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"Nothing." Yuan Yuyuan put the useless thoughts behind him: "Sometimes I think that Fan Bo doesn't seem to have the confidence to be a popular lover at all."

"What do you mean by popular lover? I'm just an ordinary person."

Ichinose Honami smiled brightly, but she just waved her hand.

Yuan Yuyuan was not as happy as the other party, but said seriously:

"...Fanbo is here again. You will be hated if you do this."

"Ah?"

"This can be said to be Fanbo's blind spot in knowledge."

Facing Ichinose Honami's doubts, Genyuen showed an unfathomable smile:

"Not everyone can be like Fanbo. People's jealousy is terrible, especially between people of the same sex. Sometimes you can only have one of the two, ability or personality."

First Year, First Semester: Chapter 145 Chapter : The Not-so-Little Ichinose Honami

"Wrong..." Ichinose Hoba's pupils dilated, and her mood, which had finally been sorted out, became chaotic again. It wasn't that she was proud and complacent. Ichinose Hoba could be said to be the most trusted person in Class B. If she, who was in charge of the class finances, was found to have done something like that before...

Even if the classmates all believe in themselves, people from other classes will seize the opportunity to split Class B.

"I absolutely don't want that kind of thing!"

"Right? It's a character that makes people feel very stressed."

Yuan Yuyuan nodded. He certainly didn't want to provoke Ichinose Honami out of bad taste. He just wanted to test whether the other party would panic enough to confess the matter. Although he failed, he also successfully confirmed one thing.

So she did something bad... But what could make someone so scared? It should have been a serious matter, but she was assigned to Class B.

It's not as serious as arson, murder, looting, or school bullying, but it's not a small matter like littering, or... the person involved has been forgiven.

Like Kushida Kikyo, she told other people's secrets, but was forgiven in the end - this is possible, but the two are completely different types. As a true angel, there is no reason for Ichinose Honami to do this.

As for the main character, Ichinose Honoki was still immersed in the guilt of the past, and she didn't notice that her boyfriend was also lost in thought. After a fierce ideological struggle, she asked cautiously: "Yu Yuan, if I say that I am not like what I appear to be, will you be angry with me?"

"Of course not! Fanbo is like this because he is too pessimistic." Yuan Yuyuan patted her head unhappily and said seriously:

"My love for Hobo is not just for such superficial things. I like Hobo no matter what kind of Hobo it is."

Actually, it was because of something more superficial...but there's no need to talk about that.

Ichinose Honami didn't know about this. She felt both touched and guilty.

"I'm sorry, Yu Yuan, I have always been too selfish."

Ichinose Honami took a deep breath, and after a few minutes of mental struggle, she nodded vigorously.

"At this point, I really can't hide it from Yu Yuan anymore. The reason is..."

"Bridge Bean Sacks!"

"What's wrong? I finally mustered up the courage to speak."

Yuan Yuyuan said seriously: "I hope Fanbo told me because he wanted to tell me, not because my words put pressure on you."

In fact, this was not the reason at all! It was that Yuan Yuyuan had two completely opposite plans in his mind, but no matter which one, the premise was that he could not know about this matter.

For example, if he became the only person in the school who knew about the exposure plan, he would never be able to clear himself even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

"this...."

At this time, Ichinose Honami couldn't figure out why she wanted to tell the reason. She felt that she really wanted to tell Gen Yuyuan, but Lizhi told her that there might be a reason for what Gen Yuyuan said just now.

"It's okay, Fanbo. I understand your concerns. No matter what you say or not, Fanbo is still Fanbo. She is the little girl in my heart who appears mature like an adult on the outside, but is extremely fragile on the inside."

“Not at all!” In front of Minamoto Yuyuan’s shocked eyes, Ichinose Honami puffed out his chest and said, “It was just my birthday last month, and I’m already older than Yuyuan!”

"Oh, so this is not small, it really is in every sense of the word.... Wait, your birthday was last month?????? Why didn't I know????"

"Oh, that's right. Because Yu Yuan doesn't like crowded places, I deliberately scheduled the birthday party for noon. Why didn't I come to see Yu Yuan that night..."

Ichinose Honami knocked his head, and suddenly, as if two lines in his head were suddenly connected, he suddenly realized:

"I remember now - Kikyo-chan was particularly clingy to me that day, saying that the once-a-year birthday must not end so hastily, and then she pulled me..."

Seeing the resentful look in Yuan Yuyuan's eyes, Ichinose Hoba woke up from her complacency and said with an embarrassed smile: "I'm sorry, I was too happy that day, Yuyuan, don't be angry, don't be angry, huhuhu——"

"There's no way I can just blow away the anger in my heart!"

"I'm sorry, because I know Yu Yuan won't be angry about this kind of thing, right?"

Ichinose Honami shook Genyuzu's arm in a flattering manner. After all, whether Genyuzuzu minded or not, it was she who did the wrong thing.

"Yes, no matter what, I won't be angry with Fanbo because of this, but!" Yuan Yuyuan nodded her head: "If Fanbo forgets again next time, I will be angry."

Ichinose Honami scratched his head awkwardly: "Of course not. I really had so much fun last time that I forgot."

"That's pretty much it."

"But, my birthday is July 20th, Yu Yuan must remember it."

Gen Yuyuan nodded. He decided to write it down on the calendar on his mobile phone after Ichinose Honami left. Of course it wouldn't be possible to do that in person, as it would feel like he wasn't really remembering someone else's birthday.

"I've got this in mind. If Fanbo doesn't call me next time, I'll call you at 12 a.m. on July 21st to vent my anger."

"Don't remember this!"

"Oh, never mind, let's just watch a movie."

“Oooooohhh – it happens again!”

Ichinose Honami extended her index finger and shook it up and down.

"Yu Yuan is best at changing the subject, but it's still very clumsy."

"....poorly done and still superfluous!"

"Then please don't mind, Yu Yuan~"

Yuan Yuyuan laughed as if his funny bone was hit. This move was learned from the Yi people... Wait, who is the Yi?

"Ahem, I'm a magnanimous person, so there's no problem in forgiving Fan Bo."

"How despicable, taking advantage of others so casually."

"Fanbo is surprisingly good at bickering..." Yuan Yuyuan stood up and sat next to the computer: "Even if I lose this time, let's go watch a movie together."

"Okay." Ichinose Hoba, who rarely had the upper hand, nodded obediently.

"Then let's watch something...how about this?" Yuan Yuyuan pointed to a movie whose cover showed a woman looking at a mirror with a look of fear, while the woman in the mirror was giving her a weird smile.

"....It's better not to. The one I saw last time already scared me."

"It was also a roar. That sentence, 'Yu Yuan, save me!' My goodness, it was so heartbreaking. I still remember it vividly."

Thinking of Ichinose Honami's previous embarrassing appearance, Genyuen laughed without empathy.

"It's okay not to waste your memory on this! Go find a movie!"

"Okay, okay."

First Year, First Semester: Chapter 146 Chapter : Just Living Is Not Enough

In the end, Yuan Yuyuan chose a campus romance film that was not too commercial, and then came the lingering (×) part that he had been thinking about.

"Ahem, the movie has already been chosen."

"I know...I know. Yu...Yu Yuan, you don't think I don't dare, do you?"

Ichinose Honami puffed out her chest and spoke stubbornly. Under Genyuki's teasing gaze, she walked slowly to the computer and took a deep breath.

"Look...look carefully, I'm not afraid at all."

"Yeah, yeah, but it's better to say this while sitting down, right?"

"sit down……"

Ichinose Honami, who had been able to maintain her tough attitude just now, instantly wilted. She stood next to Gen Yuyuan and didn't know what to do for a moment.

"It's really too difficult." Yuan Yuyuan revealed a hint of sadness in an artificial way, "Hanbo, don't force it, it's okay."

"No! Even though I know Yu Yuan is trying to provoke me, I still can't help but feel angry!"

"Yeah, but don't just stand there because you have something to say, Honoki."

"Oh my, how come I was seen through so quickly?"

Having her little trick exposed, Ichinose Hoba no longer had any excuses. She shyly sat in Yuan Yuyuan's arms. It was completely different from the usual hugs. At this moment, she was completely immersed in Yuan Yuyuan's arms.

But before she could fully experience this feeling, a mysterious force suddenly straightened her waist, and she felt a familiar weight on her shoulders. She knew that Yuan Yuyuan had rested his chin on her shoulder again.

She once heard Yuan Yuyuan say that it would give her a feeling of being supported by someone, and he felt very happy. Ichinose Honami just smiled at the time, but she didn't tell Yuan Yuyuan that she also felt very happy to be able to support him.

She knew that there was not much she could do and that she would occasionally hold Yuan Yuyuan back, but she would be content as long as she could help him.

So she should just bear whatever happens by herself, for the class and for the person she cherishes.

"Honomi seems to be distracted lately. Is there a monster in this movie?"

Ichinose Honami finally came to her senses and scratched her head in panic:

"Because Yu Yuan always likes to lean on other people's shoulders, he was a little absent-minded for a while."

"So that's it."

Gen Yuyuan did not intend to expose Ichinose Honoki's lie. Normally, the other party would not hide anything from him, except for that incident. Although he didn't know how he made the connection, it must be that incident!

Not wanting to show her true colors, Ichinose Honami concentrated on watching the movie. The movie was now showing the part where the top student heroine and the poor student hero were arguing over their future plans.

She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she and Yuan Yuyuan were...
