If you can't learn, then just fall in love

After clicking on Qingkong's voice request, Ying Lili put on the headphones with a red face and pinched the headphone wire nervously, "Oh, right..."

After going through so many things today, the word "ex-girlfriend" has become more damaging to her, and Eriri is very clear about this.

If she has any advantage over Kato Megumi, it is that her identity as an ex-girlfriend may be a debuff for others, but it is definitely a buff for her.

Because this identity represents the past that Xiao Qingkong can never give up.

If not being able to see clearly ahead is Xiao Qingkong's weakness, then Ying Lili thinks that his biggest advantage is that he likes to look back.

Because that gentle fool would always stop and wait for the stupid me, fearing that I would get lost accidentally.

Ying Lili once tried to look back to find Xiao Qingkong who only liked her, but she didn't know that she was the slowest walker, and if she didn't look forward, she would never find him.

While finding her own direction, Eriri finally found the lost Xiao Qingkong.

"But it makes me angry. I didn't draw illustrations for you just because we broke up."

"Fans don't know about this kind of thing." Qingkong thought to himself, you didn't care about anything after we broke up, leaving me alone, it would be unjust for you not to become a loser, "and I do mind it too."

Eriri bit her lip, "I'm sorry."

"No, I don't want to hear your apology, I just want to know..."

"What are you thinking about?"

"It's so nice to hear you apologize!"

Unable to hold back his desire to bully Eriri, Aozora made a joke, and the frivolous tone made Eriri extremely angry.

"what?"

"I was wrong..."

Hearing Eriri's gnashing teeth, Hanyu Aozora suddenly became timid, "I was just kidding, don't take it seriously."

Eriri snorted, "You know I like to overthink things, yet you still bully me."

"Feel sorry."

Gently shaking her head, Eriri was still self-aware, "It's not wrong actually. I abandoned you twice, I know that very well."

"I didn't want to talk about it before because I didn't want to face my mistakes and I thought I was not wrong."

"But, I was so wrong."

Qingkong was a little surprised, "You have a fever?"

Ying Lili's mouth twitched, and she bit off the strawberry unhappily, "In your mind, I am only not arrogant when I am sick?"

"How dare I."

Miss Sawamura was too lazy to argue with Hanyu Aozora, "It's really hard for you to be liked by such a tsundere Eriri."

"probably."

"Ok?"

"No, Eriri is not arrogant at all."

Having lost her temper at Qingkong's behavior, Ying Lili sighed, "Anyway, I apologize to you. I was wrong about what happened before."

Picking up the strawberries that Qingkong bought for herself, Yingli looked at the bright red fruits blankly.

"In the third grade of elementary school, I tried to distance myself from Tomoya and ignored you."

"That time in the third year of junior high school, I said those hurtful words again."

"And on your birthday, I went to your apartment, but I wrongly blamed you and didn't even say happy birthday to you."

Qingkong didn't care at all, he just laughed softly.

"What are you laughing at? I am apologizing very seriously."

"No, I just think Eriri has become cuter."

Her face was as red as the strawberry in her hand. Ying Lili shook her head. "No, I'm just adding bargaining chips to myself. I'm not as gentle as you think."

"I am just a willful, arrogant fool. Although I can't be as gentle as Xiaohui, please bear with me in the future."

Hanyu Qingkong was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Yeah, it's the same here, please bear with me, a playboy."

"???" Eriri couldn't believe how shameless Qingkong was, "I'll take care of you, you idiot."

"I think in this atmosphere I have to make fun of myself to ease your embarrassment."

Eriri puffed up her cheeks, "I don't care. You can't say that about yourself anyway."

“???” Qingkong was confused as he didn’t understand why the key point was this. “Oh, I understand.”

"By the way, didn't you say you wanted to help Ren Ye? How are you going to do it?"

Qingkong, who had a rough plan, curled his lips and said, "Keep it secret."

"Huh? Are you going to tell me or not?"

Just like that, Qingkong revealed the entire plan under the coercion of the eldest lady.

On the other hand, Kasumigaoka, a passerby character who couldn't wait for Eriri and Aozora's reply, felt more and more sad. She swiped her phone boredly and saw a reply.

Chapter 130: A Spring That Doesn't Need Love

When did you become an otaku?

I can’t remember clearly, but I remember clearly the time when I started to like games and comics.

It was probably when I was in the second grade of elementary school. Aozora and Eriri were whispering about the latest work of "Little Romance" in class. When they saw that I was interested, they lent me the game.

I still remember how touched I was when I stayed up late to push the plot. When I came to my senses, I couldn't help myself.

I am very grateful to Hanyu Aozora for lending me the game. If it weren't for him, I might have been exposed to otaku culture, but much later.

In short, that spring, I had friendship and found something worth liking.

The three of them would always draw some childish pictures and tell silly stories next to them, but even so, they were very satisfied.

“No matter how many times I play Little Romance, I am always moved, especially the childhood sweetheart plot, which is simply amazing.”

“I think Skyfall Line is better.”

I didn't understand anything at the time. Why did I almost get strangled to death by Eriri when I said that? Later I found out that she was hinting at Qingkong. Really, thinking about falling in love at such a young age, elementary school students are really scary.

"It's okay for Eriri, but why do you like otome games, Tomoya?"

Qingkong looked indifferent. He learned things quickly and easily completed a "work" that was beyond the reach of Eriri and I. When I saw the story he wrote, I was full of envy.

"It doesn't matter if it's otome, the most important thing is that it moved me."

In fact, what brought me more were my friends. Aozora and Eriri are both my friends.

Sometimes I like otaku culture, probably because I like the resonance of being moved by a work. No matter who we are, we are connected by this common love.

It's really great to have people who understand each other.

"Are you touched?" Qingkong's expression was indifferent, "But many people don't think so..."

At that time, I didn't know the deeper meaning of his words and my face was determined.

"It doesn't matter, as long as you and Eriri think so."

"I see..." Qingkong's face, which had always been indifferent, showed a smile. He had only shown a polite smile to Eriri and a girl with a bob haircut before. "Then it's the same for me and Lun."

At that time, I was very happy, and I really hoped that spring would not end.

It was too short. That period of time...

After the third grade was divided into different classes, cracks began to appear in the relationship between the three.

Now that I think about it, it was inevitable that such a situation would occur.

An exclusive little circle with a lovely mixed-race girl, a handsome and gentle young master, and a gloomy otaku wearing glasses, it's strange no matter how you think about it.

The new students assigned to this class had serious friction with us.

The girls pestered Qingkong and caused him all kinds of trouble. Although now I think they were idiots who didn't know how to express their feelings, they caused Qingkong a lot of trouble at the time.

Come to think of it, the reason why Eriri drew a line between us and me was probably because she was jealous.

The boys verbally mocked me, a bullied otaku, and even used physical force against me.

Starting from the second semester, the three of us became the best targets of bullying. Our race, gender, and otaku-like status—all negative factors—were used by our classmates to mock and make a fuss about.

It was then that I realized what Qingkong meant when he said that many people didn’t think that way.

If Qingkong hadn't protected me, I would probably have been attacked by someone.

However, because of Qingkong's protection, I was targeted by more people.

I have to say, Qingkong, who usually looks weaker than anyone else, is much stronger than Eriri and I when facing that kind of thing. He really deserves to be the young master of the Hanyu family.

Perhaps it was from that time that we began to distance ourselves from him. As elementary school students, we could not do what he did.

The sensitive Eriri is always the target of jokes about her and Aozora. If the boys' firepower is concentrated on me, then she is targeted by the girls.

If that guy could have survived, he probably wouldn't be like this now... Never mind, there's no point in thinking about it. It's none of my business anyway.

Eriri gradually lost her smile and slowly stopped mentioning comics, animation and games. She kept a distance from us intentionally or unintentionally. She became friends with the girls who had once made fun of her.

She severed Qingkong from me, became the popular queen of reality shows, and abandoned Qingkong who had always protected her.

I don't want Qingkong to lose to stupid bullies so unreasonably, I don't want to lose Eriri, a friend I can talk to, and I don't want Eriri, this idiot, to lose the opportunity to get closer to Qingkong.

However, that idiot didn't listen to me and left the otaku community in order to have so-called normal friends.

"By the way, Qingkong, why did you come to the house?"

Looking at Eriri with a resentful look as she chatted and laughed with the girls around her, Qingkong and I chatted in a low voice.

"It was Eriri who dragged me into this."

At that time Qingkong's expression was like that of an elementary school student. I couldn't help but sigh that Qingkong could also be angry.

"So that guy is the culprit..."

"Who said it wasn't?" Qingkong sighed, "But I can take this opportunity to become a hidden homebody. My family has been getting stricter recently."

"Wouldn't it be weird if the main player of the basketball team is a otaku?" I was a little worried about Aozora who was in the same class as Eriri. "It would be better to just stop being a otaku."

"Why is that weird?"

I was stunned. It seemed like there was really nothing strange about it. There was no difference between good and bad in liking something, and no one stipulated that you could only like one thing.

"But if you chat with me, people will talk about you."

"It doesn't matter. It's troublesome to chat with those boring people anyway. You and Kato are enough."

I have heard the name Kato more than once, and just as I was about to ask, Eriri came over.

"Hanyu-san, my friend wants to ask you, will someone give you water during the basketball game this afternoon? If it's convenient, can you come over?"

"Sorry, I do." Qingzora, who was expected to take this opportunity to walk over to Eriri, patted my shoulder and said, "Tomoya, and Kato, thank you for your friend's kindness."

Eriri pretended not to care and left, looking at us expressionlessly before leaving.

I couldn't help but feel a little angry. This idiot who was protected so well by Qingkong had no idea how much Qingkong had done.

"It's better if you leave me alone."

"We are friends, who cares about you?" I still remember Qingkong's expression. "Eri chose her friends, so I have to choose mine."

"Are you mad at her?"

"No."

"You look a lot like her."

"If you say that again, I'll delete your file."

Because of Aozora, I met Eriri, but also because of him, I will never be able to forgive Eriri. I am very upset that she betrayed Aozora.

Later, Qingkong chose to forgive her, and I was not surprised, after all, that's what that idiot was like.

This is what Hanyu Aozora is like, taking on responsibilities that he shouldn't have and being more handsome than anyone else.

Although I was not able to be with him in junior high school, we are still friends. We exchange animations and games with each other and share our touching stories.

When I was in high school, I found out that he was the black rabbit that I liked very much. I was sincerely happy that he had done another cool thing.
