Don't you guys dislike me?

As if actively distanced herself from him, her faint smile was like the warm March sun reflected in the lake. It looked gentle and bright, but once touched, it turned into ripples and disappeared without a trace.

Yuichi didn't think much about it, and understood it as a generation gap caused by not seeing each other for many years. The innocent childhood days had long become a thing of the past.

The girl quietly recounted their childhood memories, and Youyi listened in a disjointed manner. The laughter and joy in the conversation actually had little to do with him, as he was an outsider who had sneaked in from another world.

Even though he inherited the original owner's memories, the person who experienced all this was not Youichi after all. He didn't want to use this relationship to get along well with the angelic girl, as this would only make him look more like a plagiarist.

Let's leave everything to our future relationship...

After two stops, Youichi and Kotonoha Katsura got off the bus.

Perhaps noticing that Yuichi was not in a good mood, Katsura Yanye did not continue to talk about the past.

The silent atmosphere made Gui Yanye understandably anxious. In her expectation, their meeting should not have turned out like this.

"Kotonoha, does your mother have any favorite food? I want to bring some souvenirs."

Of course, this is not the girl’s fault. It’s just that Youyi is not used to this sudden childhood sweetheart. In his opinion, a relationship needs the maintenance of both parties to last.

He didn't want to cater to the image in Kaede Kotonoha's memory, so he treated it coldly.

However, from the time they had met until now, Youyi had a good impression of Katsura Kotonoha, and he didn't mind taking the initiative to start a conversation, as a little compensation to the inexplicably flustered girl.

Katsura Kotonoha, who got the chance to speak, was like a person swimming upstream who finally climbed up the bank and had a chance to catch his breath. The feeling of being at a loss gradually disappeared as she spoke:

"No need for mom, the things she likes are too expensive. But you can bring something for Guixin."

"Gui Xin?"

Yuichi didn't have this person's name in his memory.

"It's my sister."

…………

Guizhai, in front of a large single-family house.

The cobblestone courtyard and the majestic Japanese-style wooden house are both low-key and restrained yet stylish.

The person who opened the door was a little girl with red lips and white teeth, who looked 70% like Xiao Yanye. She raised her little head high and looked up at the big brother in front of her.

Just when Kotonoha Katsura wanted to introduce Yuichi to her sister, Katsura Shin ran to the kitchen with her lively twin ponytails, and her childish voice echoed in the house:

"Mom, my sister is back with her boyfriend!"

It was obvious that the younger sister was completely different from her older sister in terms of liveliness and cheerfulness. Gui Yanye's snow-white skin was stained with a deep red. She wanted to call out to her mischievous sister, but found that she had already run into the kitchen. In the end, she had no choice but to lower her head and shrink like a quail.

She doesn't know how to refuse, and is more likely to choose to accept things under duress, even if the facts are not so. This is the case even when facing her sister. How about normal interpersonal relationships?

"My sister's personality is very different from yours."

"Well... probably because they knew that a repressed childhood was not good for Guixin's growth, so they didn't force her to learn too much."

Katsura Kotonoha's beautiful eyes were a little dim. She seemed like a test subject for reaching the above conclusion. Her unbearable childhood might be the culprit for her introverted and sensitive character.

"Mom, look."

The beautiful woman, with her apron pulled by Gui Xin, walked out of the kitchen. The woman was well maintained, with smooth and delicate skin, and she didn't look like a mother of two children at all. It was difficult to find traces of time on her face, and the few shallow lines added a bit of mature and graceful charm to the woman.

Katsura Manami always smiles gently in front of Katsura Kotonoha. She feels that she is the culprit for her daughter's current personality.

"Auntie, excuse me."

The woman's eyes narrowed slightly. She had high expectations for people other than her daughter. Her gaze was as deep as the ocean and as sharp as a knife, somewhat explicit.

"Auntie, my name is Hoshino Yuichi, not Kotonoha's boyfriend."

Hearing this, Katsura Manami's sharp gaze paused, then turned into surprise. It seemed that she should still remember what happened at that time.

"Yuichi! Are you the little boy who played with Kotonoha back then?"

"Auntie, do you still remember me?"

Facing Katsura Manami, Yuichi did not have too much psychological burden in inheriting the original owner's identity. Compared with Kotonoha's emphasis on their friendship, Katsura Manami was mostly out of sympathy...

"Yeah, of course. Every time I took Kotonoha to the park, you were the only one sitting there all by yourself. Of course, you left a deep impression on me."

The woman's eyes softened like ice melting into running water. She considerately avoided talking about Youichi's mother and instead showed concern for his recent life.

He led Yuichi to the restaurant and quietly added a set of bowls and chopsticks while talking. In the end, Yuichi was naturally invited to stay for dinner.

Three women, three pairs of eyes staring at him. Youyi felt that the rice in his bowl was getting more and more as he ate, but it could never be finished.

…………

"Are you leaving now? Don't you want to chat with Kotonoha for a while?"

Yuichi never thought that when she visited her childhood sweetheart's home, her mother would be more welcoming than she was.

"No, I have homework to do."

"Don't be so reserved. It's okay if you stay here tonight." Katsura Manami looked at her shy daughter in an ambiguous way and said with a smile.

"My family is still waiting for me to come home. I appreciate your kindness."

…………

On the way home, the streets were crowded with people, and the gorgeous neon lights added a touch of colorful color to the dark sky.

At this time, Youyi's cell phone rang. It was his sister calling:

"Moxi Moxi?"

"Scumbag, where have you been so late? If you don't finish my homework tonight, I will deduct your money." Kasumigaoka Utaha's voice was filled with shame and anger, and soon a soft and tender voice followed:

"Shiyu-chan~Who are you talking to? Hiccup~Listen to me, Yuichi is so cruel..."

After a pause, Kasumigaoka Utaha seemed to be trying hard to push a drunkard away.

"It seems like Sister Hina likes you very much."

"You scumbag! You're going to regret this... Hey, Hina-san, stop coming this close!"

Then the other party fell into a busy tone, and the harsh words that Kasumigaoka Utaha had said disappeared like impotent rage.

.......

Tonight, Kasumigaoka Utaha no longer showed off her charming charm. I guess she was exhausted by Tachibana Haruna's clinging.

After throwing the exercise book to Yuichi, he locked himself in the room and went to sleep.

ps: Others can code 30,000 words without any problem, but I have to die after coding three chapters. Why is it so painful? . . . . . . . .

ps: I revised it for a long time this morning and ended up having to use the original manuscript to send it back. There's still a thousand words left. There will still be two updates today. I'm sleepy. I'll give it to you guys. I should be able to return it tomorrow hehe~

46. ​​My sister panicked

The next day, Kasumigaoka Utaha and Yuu took a train together.

Of course, the two of them had not forgotten the agreement of "not showing up at school together". This was just a compromise forced by two guys who liked to stay in bed. As soon as they got out of the car, they would go their separate ways.

This situation happens almost every day, and no one wants to change their lifestyle for the other person.

Fortunately, the sister and brother got along well on the tram.

Kasumigaoka Utaha crossed her long black silk legs and held the same yellow book in her hand. However, her eyes were not on the yellow book at this moment, but were looking at Yuichi beside her.

"Where did you go last night?" There was a hint of questioning in her soft voice.

"I went to a friend's house for dinner."

Yuichi's ambiguous answer obviously couldn't satisfy Kasumigaoka Utaha. Her wine-red pupils shrank slightly, and her eyes were full of inquiry. She instantly pushed Yuichi into a cramped corner.

"Boy or girl?"

For some reason, Youichi always felt that it was not wise to answer this question. Even if he didn't think that Kasumigaoka Utaha would care about his emotional state, he planned to avoid the limelight for the time being.

"It's just a meal, there's no need to be so fussy, right?"

Yuichi's brows were furrowed and his tone became impatient, as if he was constantly reminding Kasumigaoka Utaha not to cross the line of his freedom.

But this... doesn't seem to have any effect on her sister. Kasumigaoka Utaha switched her crossed legs and put the yellow book on her legs, smiling playfully:

"It's a girl~"

Youyi suddenly felt a chill on his back, and the inexplicable panic and fear made him a little dazed.

At this moment, the train braked and the door opened. A girl carrying a schoolbag trotted in from outside the train. Her beautiful black hair fluttered in the wind, making her look like an immortal elf. Her pitiful big eyes looked around the train and finally fell on Yuichi's position.

Her smile could evoke the memories of first love for all the men in the car.

"Good morning, Yuu-chan."

But at this moment, this glass of wine filled with youthful beauty was poured into one person alone.

Their fantasies came to nothing, and all their sweet memories became as empty and ridiculous as the reflection of the moon in the water.

"Good morning, Kotonoha."

Perhaps because she saw the school uniform of Hane High School on Katsura Kotonoha, Kasumigaoka Utaha immediately sat quietly aside, swallowing the thought of asking further questions and casting a more covert and profound gaze.

Why is this kind of scumbag so popular?! I totally don't understand...

Kasumigaoka Utaha read the lines of small words on the book in a hurry. With such a lovely girl involved, the success rate of her plan of "making the scumbag fall in love with her and then abandoning him cruelly" was greatly reduced.

She was feeling a little anxious at the moment, and her attention was unconsciously drawn to the conversation between the two.

"Yuu-chan, what mom said to you last night...please, please don't take it seriously."

Gui Yanye lowered her head shyly, and the blush on her fair skin was particularly obvious.

It turns out that the scumbag went to her house last night!? But how did he suddenly trick such a cute school girl, and even took her to meet the mother-in-law! What did the mother-in-law say last night?!

A little concerned...

The amount of information hidden in such a short sentence made Kasumigaoka Utaha feel like she was facing a formidable enemy. Even with her confidence in her own charm, she was still in a panic. Was she just going to watch the scumbag embrace a beautiful love?!

Of course Kasumigaoka Utaha refused. In order to speed up the scumbag's fall, was she the only one who could sacrifice herself? The girl bit her fingers, and her exquisite leather shoes tapped the ground eagerly.

"Will not."

Yuichi did not tease the shy girl anymore. Just the slightest topic was enough to make her ears redden to the point of bleeding.

"Yuu-chan, let's have lunch together at noon. Mommy made your portion, too."

"This..." Youyi was a little embarrassed. He usually had meals with Tomoya.

Kasumigaoka Utaha was in an even more awkward situation than him. She had thought that as a sister, she would definitely spend more time with Yuichi than Kotonoha Katsura, but... looking at how close they were, they would probably be together at school, and if you included the time at noon...

Her advantage seems minimal?

Moreover, she didn't even have a way to intervene now. The agreement between the two of them had become a stumbling block to the plan. She couldn't stay with the scumbag at school, which was tantamount to giving the two of them more time alone. Wouldn't this really be a hindrance to the other party?

But it is impossible to let her break the agreement first... rashly getting close to the scumbag will only make him more alert, and all the preparations made before will be wasted.

Is it just something I can do but endure?

The smooth book was wrinkled by the slender fingers, and the wine-red eyes rippled gently with the movement of the tram, as if something was brewing.

"Can't you?"

The deep purple gem of Katsura Kotonoha seemed to shatter after Yuichi said the first "no", and what might flow out afterwards might be tears, or deep disappointment.

"Can I bring a friend? He's very easygoing."

Yuichi asked, remembering Tomoya's chubby figure.

"Okay."

The girl smiled sweetly. Was she so happy just because she agreed to have dinner together? I felt a little distressed.

…………

The melodious bell rang, stirring the students' relaxed and happy moods as well as the appetite of their stomachs.

Outside Class B of Grade 12, a delicate girl stood gracefully carrying a heavy lunch box.

Kaede Kotonoha is not popular in her class and even seems to be isolated. Not good at socializing, she has repeatedly rejected invitations from her classmates to go out and play, and is regarded as an unapproachable top student.
