Zongman: There are a few beautiful girls who like me

After hesitating for just a moment, Shiina Mahiru came to her senses and agreed with a smile.

There is no way. As a girl as perfect as an angel, she has reason to be wary and reject a strange boy who wants to get close to her and hold an umbrella for her on a rainy day, but she has no way to reject a girl who is prettier than her and has no "bad intentions" towards her and just comes with good intentions.

What's more, she was able to discover this "carrot garden" because she was leaving the activity building after lunch yesterday. She accidentally saw Cheng Hai Shengnai sitting here and was reminded by Cheng Hai Shengnai.

However, when she agreed, the hint of depression in her eyes was still caught by Cheng Hai Shengnai.

This made Cheng Hai Shengna, who was originally full of determination, suddenly feel a little guilty.

"Is it not a good idea for me to do this? Shiina-san is so popular in the class, it's not like he can't find friends to eat lunch with. He came here alone obviously because he doesn't want to be disturbed by others..."

This was the first time that Narumi Seina had such close contact with Shiina Mahiru.

It was not until this time that she suddenly realized that the gentle and peaceful, angelic smile on Shiina Mashiro's face seemed to be a carefully crafted mask.

so......

"Shiina-san came here alone to eat a bento. He probably wanted to listen to Kitagawa-kun's sunny and healing piano music, take off his disguise, and relax, right?"

Thinking of this, Cheng Hai Shengna, who was as kind, well-behaved and gentle as a little rabbit, couldn't help but back down in his heart.

A thought popped into my head: "Otherwise... I can just give this carrot garden to Shiina-san for a while. At worst, I can come here earlier tomorrow."

But before she could put this idea into action, Hayasaka Tomori beside her happily pulled her to sit down.

"Great! Shiina-san, you know what? If we're lucky, there might be a surprise later~"

"..."

"..."

Cheng Hai Shengna subconsciously turned his head to look at Shiina Mahiru, and Shiina Mahiru also looked over at this time.

The two people's eyes met through Hayasaka Tomori.

Then... they all smiled in unison, an awkward yet polite smile.

"Really? What's the surprise?"

Shiina Mahiru withdrew her gaze and asked curiously, very cooperatively.

"It's the piano club activity room upstairs. Sometimes there'll be someone playing the piano at noon, and they're all songs I've never heard of before, and they're all super nice~!" Hayasaka Tomori lowered her voice, pretending to be mysterious, and said excitedly.

This made Shiina Mahiru startled at first, and then a surprised expression appeared on her face: "Huh? Don't they know that the person playing the piano upstairs is... Kitagawa-san?"

At this time, Hayasaka Touri said with regret: "It's a pity that Shengnai and I can't play the piano, otherwise we would have applied to join the piano club."

After hearing this, Shiina Mahiru's heart moved again, and she subconsciously glanced at Cheng Hai Shengna secretly.

After seeing Cheng Hai Shengna also had a regretful expression on his face, a strange light suddenly flashed in her eyes.

"Could it be that they haven't seen the piano club's recruitment poster and don't know that anyone who is a 'piano lover' can apply to join the piano club?"

Yes, it is true that Narumi Seina and Hayasaka Touri had not seen the piano club's recruitment poster. They did not know that with the graduation of the previous class of students, the piano club only had one acting club director left, and now only "piano lovers" could apply to join the club.

It was as if, in the piano club activity room on the second floor, less than ten meters away, Kitagawa Yuu didn't know that the two most popular beauties in their class and even in their grade were sitting on the bench downstairs, waiting to watch his performance for free.

"Huh? Why does your sandwich look different?"

In front of the bright window, on the clean wooden floor, Kitagawa Yu and the other three sat together as if they were on a picnic in the park on a spring day.

Even Yumeko Shikiya, who was lying dead against the wall yesterday, took the initiative to sit over here today.

Then, the four of them took out the lunch boxes they had brought with them while basking in the warm sun.

Yumeko Shikiya's 'bento' is pineapple bread and chocolate milk bought from a convenience store on the way to school early in the morning.

This seemingly simple combination is actually the most frequently seen lunch arrangement in anime and light novels.

Anai Hanami's bento consisted of seven or eight pieces of teriyaki chicken sprinkled with white sesame seeds and two cute-looking crispy octopus sausages.

There is also tamagoyaki, which is indispensable in Japanese bento, plus a few cherry tomatoes as fruit.

In addition, there are four rice balls filled with pickled plums and dried meat, and a few slices of fresh lettuce at the bottom, which can be used as a tray and can also be eaten.

In addition, Anai Yanami also prepared miso soup.

But looking at the scattered kelp and tofu floating in it, it feels like it may not be as good as the miso soup dumplings that Kitagawa You bought these two days.

In comparison, Himemiya Karen, whose family conditions are much better than Yanami Anna's, prepares a much more luxurious lunch box than Yanami Anna's.

A whole grilled eel covered in sauce, and several pieces of tuna belly that looked fresh and plump.

Add to that a salad made of avocado, shrimp, eggs, mashed potatoes, cherry tomatoes, and miso soup with seafood mushrooms and shrimp.

If it were sold in a restaurant outside, the price would probably be more than ten times that of Yanami Anna's bento.

"What's the use of being expensive... You can tell from the looks of it that she didn't make this lunch herself!"

Yana saw Xingcai swallowing subconsciously, then snorted with disdain in her heart and turned to look at the sandwich in Kitagawa Yu's hand.

Then, as a veteran foodie, she discovered through scattered clues that something was 'not right' with the sandwich in Kitagawa Yu's hand in just a blink of an eye.

Chapter 41 Do you want to try it?

"Your sandwich doesn't have bacon in it?"

"Yes, I replaced the bacon with A5 Wagyu beef from Matsusaka, and added cheese and our restaurant's secret ranch sauce. Of course, it's different from the ordinary sandwiches sold outside~"

When Yana saw Xingna finish listening, she couldn't help but widen her eyes.

Since her father's monthly income is only 30 yen, her family can only eat such high-quality beef a few times a year!

But Beichuan You, it was just an uncut, ordinary-sized sandwich, but he put three slices of such high-grade Matsusaka Wagyu beef in it, isn’t this too extravagant! ?

"Will it taste good if you make it this way?" Yana saw that Xingcai couldn't help swallowing her saliva again, and stared at the sandwich in Kitagawa Yu's hand, and asked with full of 'concern' and 'curiosity'.

"You don't understand this, right? This is a modification of the famous Philadelphia beef sandwich in the United States. It tastes even better than the authentic Philadelphia beef sandwich~"

Yana saw that Xingna couldn't help drooling after hearing this. Although she had never eaten the authentic "Philadelphia Beef Sandwich", since it has become a very famous delicacy, it must taste very good, right?

Wouldn't the 'Matsusaka Wagyu Sandwich' that has been upgraded and improved by Kitagawa Yu be even more delicious?

"Would you like a taste?"

Kitagawa Yu seemed to have seen through her thoughts, and his true colors were finally revealed. He casually fed the sandwich, which he had already taken a bite of, to Yanami Anna.

At this moment, the tempting aroma came to her face and rushed straight to her brain through her nose, making Yanajian Xingcai's brain almost stuck.

"What the hell is he doing?!"

"Doesn't he know that if I take another bite of the sandwich he's already bitten into, it would be like an indirect kiss?"

"Did he do that on purpose?"

Yana noticed that Xingcai suddenly became a little flustered, and subconsciously looked up at Kitagawa Yu.

After seeing Kitagawa Yu's 'clean eyes' without any 'bad intentions', he calmed down a little, and then...he couldn't help but feel conflicted.

"It seems he didn't mean it... Should I eat it?"

At this moment, the little angel and the little devil with the words "eat" and "don't eat" written on their faces clashed in her mind at least a thousand times.

Then, just as the little angel who wrote "I won't eat" was gaining the upper hand, an idea suddenly flashed in her mind, and she thought of how to have the best of both worlds.

"I don't want to eat what you've bitten~"

Yana saw Xingcai deliberately speaking with a look of disgust while grabbing Kitagawa Yu's wrist with one hand and the sandwich with the other. She turned the sandwich around and then happily bit the part that Kitagawa Yu hadn't bitten before.

"Crack!"

Unlike ordinary sandwiches, the bread of this sandwich is very crispy because it is toasted with garlic and butter.

Yana saw that after Xingcai took a bite, her mouth was immediately covered with golden bread crumbs, and a lot of them even fell on her school uniform.

But at this moment, she couldn't care about these things at all, because...

"Aoisi!"

The golden and crispy bread, the plump and juicy beef, as well as the flavors of cheese, onions, shiitake mushrooms and various sauces and seasonings blend perfectly together to form a complex and delicious taste that cannot be accurately described in words.

Just the moment it touched her taste buds, Yanajian Xingna's eyes couldn't help but light up.

At the same time, Kitagawa Yu couldn't help but smile as he looked at her cute face, which looked like a little squirrel intoxicated with pine nuts.

Especially when Yana saw that Anna seemed very smart but was actually trying to cover up her mistake, he almost couldn't help laughing.

Although Yanami Kyoko successfully avoided the place he had just bitten, the place that Yanami Kyoko had bitten could not avoid the fate of being eaten by him.

Therefore, the achievement of 'second indirect kiss' will still be achieved next, and will be firmly remembered by the sensitive Yanami Anna.

However, in order to avoid the only loophole in this battle plan, he took a big bite of the sandwich as soon as he took it back.

Then, almost at the same time, as expected, Himemiya Karen's voice rang in his ears.

"I want to eat too!"

"Okay~"

Kitagawa Yu did not refuse.

I've already eaten mashed potatoes, so why should I bother with a sandwich?

In order to make Yanami Anna believe that he really did it "unintentionally", he even "reluctantly" accepted the tuna belly and grilled eel that Himemiya Karen picked up with chopsticks and fed to him, and achieved the achievement of "two-way indirect kiss" with Himemiya Karen.

This made Yana, who was "watching coldly" on the side, feel relieved.

"It seems that this guy really didn't mean it..."

Yana saw Xingna eating the rice ball in her hand while thinking silently in her heart.

And then...I don't know if it was because Kitagawa Yu's sandwich was too delicious, or because Himemiya Karen's grilled eel and tuna belly were too tempting.

Anyway, she didn't know why, but the rice ball in her hand suddenly didn't taste delicious anymore.

"It's all this guy's fault!"

Yana saw Xingcai secretly glaring at Kitagawa Yu and muttered to herself.

Fortunately, Kitagawa You ate as fast today as he did yesterday, and finished the remaining sandwich in his hand in just five minutes.

"Which song do you want to hear?"

"Number 2!"

"Number 4!"

"No. 5..."

In an instant, Yana, who was originally a little unhappy, suddenly perked up again after seeing Kyona. Even Shikiya Yumeko, who was a 'zombie type', raised her head, and her voice was a little more energetic than usual.

But the songs they chose...

Number 2 is the ED of "Teasing Master Takagi-san" called "Romantic on a Whim", but the one who chose this song was not the love-brained Karen Himemiya but Anna Yanami.

As for the number 4 chosen by Himemiya Karen and the number 5 chosen by Shikiya Yumeko, they are respectively the execution songs "Giorno's Theme" from "Aim to be a Pokémon Master" and "JOJO Golden Wind".

so......

"What kind of taste does this cat have?"

"How come no one chose my favorite song, 'Sunflowers', and the cutest song, 'I Want to Be Cute'?"

"Is there such a big difference in my compatibility with these three guys?"

Beichuan You complained in his heart, feeling that with these guys around, their piano club was doomed.

However, as a qualified pianist, the moment he sat down in front of the piano, he instantly suppressed the distracting thoughts in his mind and began to mobilize his emotions.

Then......

"I'm coming!"

Sitting on the wooden bench outside the window, Hayasaka Touri listened to the piano music coming from behind her and couldn't help revealing a look of delight.

However, Narumi Seina and Shiina Mahiru beside her had a look of doubt in their eyes at the same time.

"Ah?"

"strangeness?"

"Why didn't Kitagawa-kun (that guy) play that song anymore?"
