Ichinose, you will regret it.

What kind of magic potion did that guy use on my sister to trick my cold sister away!

Thinking of this, Horikita Manabu couldn't help but feel hatred towards Uesugi Gen.

However, what he needs to deal with right now is his sister's affairs.

Horikita Manabu straightened up, forced himself to look serious, put his hands on his chin, and once again assumed Commander Ikari's unique posture, looking expressionlessly at his sister who was fidgeting in her seat.

"Lingyin, what's the matter with you?"

Horikita Manabu said to Horikita Suzune in a cold tone.

Horikita Suzune took a deep breath and unconsciously placed her hands on her thighs.

"Onii-sama, are you aware of the sudden rumor riot that broke out among the first graders today?"

"If you're talking about the rumors about Uesugi, the student council does know about it."

Horikita Manabu said calmly.

"Then why-"

"You should be aware that while the student union has the function of maintaining the normal operation of the school, it will not intervene unless the person involved files a complaint. Furthermore, he is the vice president of the student union, so he is well aware of these rules."

Horikita Manabu interrupted Horikita Suzune directly.

Horikita Manabu's words directly refuted Horikita Suzune, leaving her speechless.

She bit her lip, her eyes flickered a little, and she lowered her head silently.

The Student Union Office fell into silence...

Seeing that Horikita Suzune didn't move, Horikita Manabu stood up and walked towards the office door.

"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first. The Student Union still has a lot of urgent documents to process."

"Please..."

Suddenly, Horikita Manabu heard the subtle voice of Horikita Suzune.

"Please..."

The sound suddenly became louder.

Followed by.

“Squeak—!”

There was the sound of a chair being dragged.

Horikita Manabu slowly turned around. His sister—

Horikita Suzune, with her eyes tightly closed, bowed to him and whispered through gritted teeth.

"Please help him, please!!"

"..."

Horikita Manabu stared at his sister who was not far away and lowered her head to ask for help.

Lowering her head for others and asking for her help, this was a side of Horikita Suzune that she had never seen before.

The sister who had always followed in his footsteps, the sister who had always been influenced by him, had already unknowingly broken free from his constraints and embarked on another path...

Yeah……

Horikita Manabu smiled in relief.

What I spent three years or even longer to accomplish was accomplished by another boy in less than half a year?

Seeing that Horikita Manabu didn't respond, Horikita Suzune just stood there quietly, maintaining the bowing posture.

quite a while.

Horikita Manabu took the initiative to break the silence between the two.

"Room 216."

"?"

Horikita Suzune looked up in confusion.

"At noon, Uesugi Gen called and said, 'If a stubborn girl comes to your place, please tell her this room number. I'm sorry my stubborn girl got lost. Thank you for helping me get her home.'"

When he heard these words at noon, he immediately felt an urge to beat him to death. God knows how he managed to listen to them patiently.

rub--!

Horikita Suzune's fair face suddenly turned red, and it was unclear whether it was out of embarrassment or anger.

"Excuse me, my dear brother. Please continue with your work. I will take my leave now."

Without any hesitation, Horikita Suzune picked up her bag and rushed out of the student council office.

She was going to teach that guy who was talking nonsense a lesson right now!

Looking at Horikita Suzune's hurried back, Horikita Manabu couldn't help but smile bitterly.

It turns out that my sister has this unknown side?

"Horikita-san, are you done talking to your sister?"

The student union secretary, Akane Tachibana, asked curiously as she half-peeked out of the doorway while holding documents.

"Ah, we're done talking."

"What are you doing?"

Tachibana Akane asked, a little surprised.

"It's just... I'm a little uncomfortable..."

Horikita Manabu said sadly.

171

Chapter 171 Miss Shiina’s personal opinion.

The time goes back to noon, lunch break.

"Click~"

The door handle of the dormitory on the second floor was gently turned, and Uesugi Gen, who was ready to continue cyberbullying himself, turned his head curiously.

Ms. Shiina?

Besides me, she is the only one who has the key card to this room, but why is she here at this time?

A cute girl with silver hair, purple eyes, and thighs wrapped in gray stockings came into Uesugi Gen's sight.

"Good afternoon, Ms. Shiina."

Although he didn't know why she came here at this time, Uesugi Gen still welcomed her arrival.

Seeing that Uesugi Genya was in the room, Shiina Hiwa's purple eyes revealed a sense of joy. She clasped her hands together and said as if she was relieved:

"Sure enough, Uesugi-kun is here."

"Ok?"

Uesugi Gen was a little curious, "So, Miss Shiina expected me to be here?"

"Because before coming here, I knocked on the door of your old room, and found that there was no sound at all."

While answering Uesugi Gen's questions, Shiina Hiyori bent down and gently took off her little leather shoes, then walked into the room wearing her stockings.

Knocked on my door...

Looking at the girl in front of him, a trace of worry flashed between her brows.

Anyone who knows a little about Uesugi Gen would know that the content of the text message was definitely faked by Uesugi Gen. The original students of Class B did not come because Uesugi Gen told some of them the truth in advance and asked them to maintain the status quo of the class.

Is that why you think I might be here?

"that……"

Shiina Hiyori hesitated for a moment, but still asked slowly, "Uesugi-kun, are you... okay?"

"It's okay, it's totally fine."

Uesugi Gen waved his hand and began to think about how to tell the truth to this girl who came to care about him.

"Is it okay for you to come here at this time, Ms. Shiina? It should be almost time for class, right?"

Seeing that Uesugi Gen was not in any serious trouble, Shiina Hiyori walked past Uesugi Gen and went to the kitchen cabinet, took out a set of tea sets from the cabinet, placed them in the sink next to it and started washing them.

"It's okay. I've asked for leave from the teacher, so Uesugi-kun doesn't need to worry about my problems."

Uesugi Gen shuddered. If he had known earlier, he would have told her the truth in advance...

Shiina Hiyori had already cleaned the tea set and started to boil water in the electric kettle. After a while, the kettle began to emit gurgling steam...

"that……"

Uesugi Gen considered it for a moment, then slowly said, "Ms. Shiina already knows that there's nothing wrong with me. If you have other things to do, you can go about it and don't worry about me."

Shiina Hiyori nodded, took out a teacup and placed it in front of Uesugi Gen, then knelt down and said, "In that case, I choose to stay by Uesugi-kun's side."

This kid...

Uesugi Gen smiled bitterly in his heart.

"Ms. Shiina, actually..."

Uesugi Gen picked up his teacup, blew on it gently, and slowly said, "I knew about this rumor a long time ago, and I've already made countermeasures. It's not impossible to even say that I directed and acted in this drama myself, so Miss Shiina has no need to worry about me."

"I know."

"Ok?"

Uesugi Gen turned and looked at Shiina Hiyori in surprise.

"Because Ryuuen-san's behavior is so wrong."

Shiina Hiyori further added.

Long Yuan, you useless dog, your acting is so bad that you can’t even fool a girl. Give me back the one million I owe you!

"Then why—"

"There's no necessary connection, right? Knowing there would be rumors and preparing in advance doesn't mean you won't be hurt, right?"

Ms. Shiina said solemnly, "Sometimes, the most dangerous criminals don't kill with their hands, but with their tongues."

Irreparable malice is born in everyone's heart...

Did you take time off just for this to come and see me, your friend?

Uesugi Gen sighed in his heart, looked at the literary girl who loved reading, and said softly.

"Ms. Shiina, you are so gentle."

"Ah~"

Shiina Hiyori was a little flustered, a blush creeping up her face. She waved her hands repeatedly and said, "No, I just picked these words out of a novel."

"Also, Ms. Shiina, why don't you ask me why I do this?"

Uesugi Gen continued to ask.

Miss Shiina tilted her head with a puzzled expression on her face, as if she was a little surprised why Uesugi Gen asked such a question.

"Aren't Uesugi-kun and I friends? You don't need a reason to support your friends, right?"

"Besides, Uesugi-kun has never asked me about the internal affairs of Class C, right? I believe Uesugi-kun has already planned this kind of thing. All I have to do is support you."

Uesugi Gen's heart skipped a beat. This is so unfair, Miss Shiina. She directly drained half of my health bar.

Grabbing the teacup and taking a big gulp of tea, Uesugi Gen surrendered, walked to the computer and turned it off.

He opened the drawer, took out a book, and returned to his seat.

"Uesugi-kun, what are you doing?"

Ms. Shiina was a little curious.

"I surrender and will read the novel with you."
