Yukinoshita Kiyoshi's arrangement was well-intentioned.

Hachiman didn't have so many sighs, but he had a little sense of reality that he was about to enter the University of Tokyo.

"I'm going to the bathroom. You guys wait here for me." Hachiman said directly.

After Hachiman left, Yukino checked the time on her phone, thinking about the surprise she had prepared for Hachiman.

Then, a long-lost but familiar voice sounded behind him: "Xiaoxue!"

Chapter 12 Chapter

"Little Snow!"

The long-lost and extremely familiar voice sounded. Yukino turned around and saw a girl with pink hair standing there.

That was her best friend, best friend and former rival whom she hadn't seen for a year. At this moment, Yukino saw the complicated expression on Yui's face.

"Yui..." She called out with a slightly hoarse voice, but Yui walked towards her with heavy steps, and her expression looked unusually stern.

The next moment, Yui raised her hand and slapped Yukino on the cheek, causing Haruno next to her to widen her eyes.

Suddenly, Yukino's eyes began to turn red, and countless complex emotions surged in her throat, condensing in her throat but unable to be expressed in words.

But then Yui hugged Yukino without saying anything.

"You know how worried I was about you this past year, silly Xiaoxue, why didn't you reply to my messages?"

During this year, Yukino lost her father, experienced a major change in the Yukinoshita family, and Hachiman escaped. Each of these events was exhausting and painful for the not-so-strong girl, so she closed herself off and ignored any news from the outside world, including that from her best friend.

"I...I...I'm sorry, Yui." Yukino was hugged in Yui's arms, and tears began to slowly flow out.

"I also know that your father passed away, and even the school was attacked. I called you every day and tried to go to your house to find you, but it was all in vain. You know how cruel your actions were to me. I have to go to university with such a worried mood. I insist on contacting you on LIEN. I'm worried that if we meet one day, we won't recognize each other like the other graduates of Sobu High School. I don't want that." Yui was very emotional, as if she was trying to vent the gloom of the past year.

“I… I’m sorry.” Although she had expected this, when they actually met, Yukino realized how deeply she had hurt her friend. Yui, who always made her laugh, was now seriously angry.

While she was sad, Yukino felt a sense of warmth. Besides her family and Hachiman, there were people who really cared about her.

"It's been a year and you didn't reply to my messages on LINE. Then suddenly one day you told me that you came to Tokyo to study and wanted to meet me. Don't you think you were being too much, Yukinoshita Yukino?" For the first time, Yui called Yukino by her full name, and people could feel her anger at the moment.

"Really, I'm sorry, Yui, it's because, it's because..." Yukino was very anxious, but she couldn't say the words. In fact, Yukino read the messages Yui sent her on LINE every day carefully, but Yukino was always hesitant and a little timid, she didn't dare to reply to the other party.

Because she used "dirty" means to keep Hachiman by her side, and she was wondering if it would be better for both of them to become strangers to Yui in the future.

But in the end, he couldn't resist the urge to meet Yui, and finally contacted her when he went to Tokyo to enroll in school.

"Idiot! I don't want to hear your explanation. I just want you to appear in front of me safely. Really, it's been a long time, Xiaoxue."

Although she was so angry, Yui was so gentle, and the joy that her friend was safe overwhelmed other emotions.

The two girls hugged each other, excited, crying and laughing. In the season when the cherry blossoms were falling, it was indeed a very suitable day for them to meet.

After a while, the two girls let go of each other and looked at each other's growth results like long-distance lovers meeting after a long absence.

"Xiaoxue, you've grown taller and become more beautiful." Yui said with a smile.

"You too, Yui, have become even cuter." Yukino smiled through her tears.

"Hehe, you're saying I'm fat, right? I'm angry."

The two chattered for a long time, and this passionate feeling could even be misunderstood as a close relationship.

"This is my sister, Yang No, you've met her before, Yui." Yukino introduced the person who had been watching.

"Ms. Yang No, long time no see. I was really rude just now." Thinking of the excitement just now, Yui felt a little embarrassed.

But Yang No looked at the two of them with interest, without saying a word, which gave Yui goosebumps.

However, Yui soon remembered something else.

"By the way...where is Xiaoqi?" When Yui asked this, her tone sounded a little strange, a little timid, and a little nervous.

"He went to the bathroom. I haven't told him that you'll be here today. I told him on the way that I would give him a surprise."

Yukino's expression was also a little frozen, as if the mention of that boy would change the relationship between the two of them that went beyond ordinary best friends.

However, Hachiman was a problem that the two could not overcome.

Yui looked at Yukino and clenched her fists nervously. She asked, "You...are dating Xiaoqi now, right?"

"I... am sorry." For some reason, Yukino apologized subconsciously.

Yui's smile also became a little stiff: "It's so strange, why is Xiaoxue apologizing all the time today? What you mean by apologizing is that dating Xiaoqi is something that needs to be apologized for?"

Yui knew that her words were a bit sharp, and she even regretted saying them out loud, but perhaps she would regret it even more if she didn't say them out loud.

"It's not like that, Yui, I just..."

I just forced Hikigaya-kun to choose me, from Saki Kawasaki, from you.

So Yukino always feels guilty when facing Yui.

Yui took a deep breath and did not embarrass Yukino anymore. She said, "I am very happy that Xiaoqi and Xiaoxue can date, because you can both be redeemed from each other."

Yui, please don't be so gentle to me, okay?

I would rather you blame me, say that I am shameless, taking advantage of the situation, and say that I am a despicable woman.

"I'm really looking forward to it. I wonder what kind of expression Xiaoqi will have when he sees me later."

Yang Nai stood aside and watched the interaction between the two, without any ripples in her heart. To her, it was just a matter of looking for valuable prey.

Boring, I want to see a river of blood, she said in her heart.

Hachiman, who had no idea what was going on, was on his way to the bathroom. It was early spring now, and the scenery on campus was very pleasant, with green, red, purple and red complementing each other. He even wanted to take out his cell phone to take pictures of it all.

And some people really did this. During the holidays, the University of Tokyo seemed to have become a tourist attraction, welcoming some tourists who came to check in and go for an outing. But when he walked near Sanshiro Pond, he saw a girl who was raising her legs slightly to take pictures of bird of paradise flowers. Because of her raised legs, her shirt could not help but be pulled up, revealing her fair belly and small and cute belly button.

When Hachiman saw the girl's face, he was stunned by surprise.

The girl turned around inadvertently, and when she saw him, she shouted in surprise, "Senior?"

The season when cherry blossoms fall is indeed a suitable time for reunion.

Chapter 13 Chapter

"senior?"

The tone that sounded more like joy than doubt made Hachiman's train of thought stop for a moment, but what happened next forced him to regain his sanity.

Perhaps because she met unexpected people in an unexpected place, it wasn't just her head that was shaking. The action of standing on tiptoe to take the photo was already difficult enough, but when her attention was distracted, her feet slipped on the thin moss and she fell backwards.

"Ah." For a moment, the girl was still confused about the situation.

Behind her is the famous Sanshiro Pond of the University of Tokyo.

"Isshiki!" Hachiman shouted the girl's name loudly. Although there was a hint of maturity in her name, Hachiman still recognized her at a glance after not seeing her for a year.

There was a loud bang, and countless water splashed out. Then there was the sound of four limbs paddling on the water, and the few passers-by exclaimed.

I haven't seen this idiot for a year, but he still can't water!

Recalling the fact that Isshiki Iroha was a landlubber before their last meeting, Hachiman quickly ran over, took off her coat, and jumped into the water. Compared to a pond, this place was more like a small artificial lake with a depth of about two meters. If she was calm, she could use anything to pull herself back to the lake even if she couldn't swim. However, the sudden accident of falling into the water completely shut down the girl's brain.

Hachiman felt the coolness of the early spring pond water as he approached Isshiki, only to be hit on the head by her flailing fist.

"Help...Help..." Isshiki shouted with all his might while struggling.

Hachiman quickly grabbed her from behind and shouted, "Isshiki, it's me, calm down and stop waving your arms and legs."

"Senior...Senior...save me." Isshiki said hurriedly, as if recognizing Hachiman's voice.

Hachiman grabbed Isshiki from behind, and suddenly felt something soft in his right hand. If it was before, Hachiman might not realize what it was, but after a year of training from Qingxue, he was already completely familiar with this feeling, but it was indeed different from Qingxue's.

However, this thought only lasted for a moment, and the next moment Hachiman devoted all his energy to pulling Isshiki back to the shore.

Fortunately, Isshiki Iroha, who had not been seen for a long time, did not gain much weight, and Hachiman, who had undergone a year of physical training, also had enough strength. About ten minutes later, Hachiman pulled the girl back to the shore, attracting the attention of some passers-by.

The girl was probably choked by the water and kept coughing. Hachiman subconsciously stretched out his hand to pat her on the back, but his hand just reached out and then dropped down as if giving up.

"Isshiki, how are you, are you okay?"

"If the senior had just patted my back gently to comfort me, I might have been fine." The girl seemed to have felt a little relieved and was still in the mood to make a joke.

Hachiman gave a bitter smile: "You are still the same as before."

Still the type he found difficult to deal with.

"Senior, do you mean that I'm still as cute as ever? Thank you for the compliment." Isshiki raised her head gently. Even though she was soaked to the skin and her drooping hair was still dripping with water, the girl's bright eyes and cute face remained unchanged, and it even made Hachiman recall the past for a moment.

But when he looked at the girl's shirt, he had to look away immediately.

Although it is early spring, the outfit is very cool. The white printed shirt fully highlights the pink underwear inside after being wet.

Noticing Hachiman's strange shift in gaze, Isshiki looked down at his chest.

"!!!!" The next moment, the girl's cheeks turned red and she covered her chest with both hands. Hachiman stood up and put the thin coat thrown on the ground on Isshiki.

"Thank you, Senpai." Isshiki said in a low voice, and there seemed to be more emotion in his tone.

Hachiman didn't know the source of this emotion, nor did he want to know. He was just fulfilling his duties as a "senior".

He stretched out his hand and said, "Stand up. You'll catch a cold if you keep sitting here."

Isshiki nodded gently, then stretched out his hand and was pulled up by Hachiman, but as soon as he stood up, he couldn't help frowning.

"It hurts." She gasped.

"What's wrong?" Hachiman asked, noting that she looked unhappy.

"It seems like I sprained my ankle when I fell just now."

"Can you walk?"

Isshiki tried to take a step forward, but his face immediately turned pale.

"Where do you live now?" Hachiman asked.

"My school is near Shinjuku." Isshiki said. Today she came to the famous University of Tokyo to take photos before the school started.

Hachiman looked embarrassed. Bunkyo Ward is some distance away from Shinjuku, so this is not a easy task.

Especially now that all my clothes are wet, my feet are injured, and of course, my clothes are all wet as well.

As if seeing the difficulty of the senior, Isshiki smiled and said, "No problem, senior, just help me call a taxi, and I can go back by myself."

"At a time like this, how could I possibly leave a girl like you and go back alone?" Hachiman denied Isshiki's words in a firm tone.

When Isshiki Caiyu heard this, the man reflected in her pupils swayed gently.

It is because he is always like this that I...

He thought for a moment, then bent down and said to Isshiki, "I live nearby. Come to my house to take care of your wounds and clothes first."

"Eh?" Isshiki showed a look of joy for a moment, but the next moment he felt that this was not reserved enough.

"Oh." Then someone added a faint response.

But the girl finally climbed onto his shoulders, feeling the warmth of each other under the equally wet clothes.

Isshiki's weight was even lighter than he thought. No, maybe it was because his physical strength was better now.

Soon, Hachiman felt the pleasant touch of the right size on his back, but he tried his best not to realize what it was.

However, the little witch on his back didn't seem to let him go. She whispered in his ear, "Senior, just now under the water, your hand grabbed my breast, right?"

The girl's voice was soft and gentle, with a warm and sweet breath, just like a piece of sweet marshmallow.

Then, Hachiman's cheeks and ears couldn't help but turn red.

But this shyness actually brought her closer to Isshiki. She continued to whisper in her ear, "Ah, Senior's ears are all red. Are you recalling something bad?"

This little witch.

Chapter 14 Chapter

Even though Isshiki took the initiative to close the distance between them, Hachiman thought she was just playing a prank. This girl had always been like this, always teasing him with ambiguous words.

No, maybe she is like this to other boys as well. It is too hasty to mistakenly judge that the other person's attitude towards you is special just because he talks to you like this.

Perhaps because they were not familiar with the terrain of the University of Tokyo, when Hachiman was carrying Isshiki on his back and following the road signs, and when he came to his senses, Isshiki, who was like a curious baby, had already walked out of the school gate, but at the door in the opposite direction of Akamon.

"Isshiki, please take the phone out of my pocket." Hachiman requested.

After hearing this, Isshiki Caiyu reached into Hachiman's pocket and took out the phone.

"Senior, your phone won't turn on." The girl handed his phone to her and pressed a few buttons, but there was really no response.
