Ichinose, you will regret it.

Uesugi Gen said directly, "Since Miss Shiina has chosen to sacrifice her class time to come here with me at this time, I can't just leave Miss Shiina aside, right?"

Upon hearing this, Shiina Hiyori's purple eyes shone with an unprecedented brilliance, "Really? Is this okay? Won't it bother Uesugi-kun?"

After asking three questions in a row, I have to say that this child really likes reading.

"Ah."

Uesugi Gen nodded and waved the book in his hand. "I originally wanted to give it to you as a gift, but now it seems I have no choice but to take it out in advance."

"Goodbye, My Love", the name of this novel.

"Didn't you say before that you couldn't find it at the library? Coincidentally, I have a connection with the owner of the school bookstore, so I asked him to help me look for it outside, and I just happened to find it."

Uesugi Gen bent down and handed the book to Shiina Hiyori.

Shiina Hiyori looked quietly at the book in Uesugi Gen's hand, reached out to take it silently, hugged the book with both hands, and opened his lips slightly.

"Thank you, Uesugi-kun."

"No, I should thank you, Ms. Shiina. It's my honor to be your friend."

"So……"

Shiina Hiwa opened the book, moved half a step to the side, and invited him impatiently: "Uesugi-kun, let's read together."

Uesugi Gen sat next to Shiina Hiyori and said helplessly:

"Just a heads up, if I fall asleep later, remember to wake me up."

"No, I believe Uesugi-kun won't."

……

"Strange? Why isn't she the murderer? Her actions are obviously inconsistent, aren't they?"

"You see, the author has left some clues here, indicating there might be something else going on."

Chapter 172 Still being stubborn.

In the afternoon, after sending Shiina Hiyori away, Uesugi Gen silently estimated the time and felt that the stubborn girl would be arriving soon.

Uesugi Gen was planning to make things a little more difficult for himself, otherwise Horikita Suzune, who had been fooled by him, might really come over and beat him like a punching bag.

"Ding dong! Ding dong! Ding dong!"

A series of rapid doorbell rings came from the door.

It is not difficult to hear how angry the owner of the doorbell is.

Uesugi Gen swallowed his saliva, slowly walked to the door, and asked cautiously through the door:

"Stubborn girl?"

"Open the door!"

A short, powerful, and cold voice filled with murderous intent was heard.

"Can you not hit people?"

Uesugi Gen made his humble request.

"What do you say?"

Uesugi Gen wanted to make one last attempt to struggle.

"Let's make a deal, okay? I'll open the door and you won't hit me."

"One last time, can you open it?"

Horikita Suzune didn't seem to want to argue with Uesugi Gen anymore, so she issued an ultimatum: "If you don't open it, don't come into my room anymore."

"Snapped--!"

Very quickly, Uesugi Gen opened the door.

"Stubborn girl, I'm so miserable—"

The expression that Uesugi Gen had been brewing for a long time had not yet appeared when it was suddenly pressed back by Horikita Suzune's white palm.

"boom--!"

The door is closed.

"that……"

Uesugi Gen silently took two steps back and forced a smile, "I can explain."

Horikita Suzune slowly approached Uesugi Gen, clenching her fists and looking stern. "I don't want to hear your explanation right now. Let me beat you up first."

"Well, stubborn girl, listen to me—"

"I won't listen. I can't argue with your twisted logic. Every time you talk, I don't want to hit you anymore."

Looking at Uesugi Gen's face that was smirking at her, Horikita Suzune became angrier and angrier, and felt more and more at a disadvantage.

For this guy who didn't even reply to my text messages, I swallowed my pride and asked my brother to help him. As a result, not only was nothing wrong with this guy, he seemed to be living a comfortable life, with even a set of tea sets on his table.

"flutter--!"

Uesugi Gen quickly slid to his knees and skillfully hugged Horikita Suzune's thighs, feeling the silky touch of her legs on his cheeks, and raised the white flag.

"My fault!"

"Asshole, why do you always use this trick?"

A strange feeling came from her thigh. Horikita Suzune blushed and twisted Uesugi Gen's ear, "Let me go!"

"No! Not only am I being cyberbullied, but you're also domestically bullying me. How can this be possible?"

Uesugi Gen looked depressed and acted pitiful to Horikita Suzune.

"You have no idea how harshly those people on the forum scolded me. They even said that all the bad things Gao Yu did were caused by me. This is simply slander!"

"Also, they actually said I was a gigolo. That's inhumane. Is there any gigolo as handsome as me?"

"And..."

Uesugi Gen hugged Horikita Suzune's thighs and began to complain incessantly.

Horikita Suzune's tense face gradually relaxed, and she let go of Uesugi Gen's ear. "Alright, I won't hit you anymore. Just explain the whole story clearly. You said you wouldn't hide anything from me in the future."

"Really?"

Uesugi Gen was overjoyed and confirmed again, "You won't use me as a punching bag?"

"real."

Horikita Suzune felt a little funny. How could he use you as a punching bag?

Uesugi Gen, who was holding Horikita Suzune's thighs, exerted a little force and pulled Horikita Suzune into his arms, and the two of them fell to the ground.

"What are you doing?"

Horikita Suzune was a little angry. She had just forgiven this person, but he started messing around again.

"Let it go—"

"Thank you, stubborn girl."

Holding Horikita Suzune tightly, feeling the beating pulse of this well-proportioned girl, Uesugi Gen softly expressed his gratitude.

“It must be very difficult to make such a choice.”

"You knew I was still allowed to choose."

Horikita Suzune, leaning in Uesugi Gen's arms, pinched the soft flesh on Uesugi Gen's waist and whispered softly.

"Because I want to take this opportunity to make sure Lingyin doesn't have any regrets."

Playing with Horikita Suzune's pigtails in his hands, Uesugi Gen explained his reasons.

Horikita Suzune paused, apparently understanding something.

There is still one semester left before Horikita Manabu graduates. If they don't take this opportunity to resolve the awkward relationship between the two siblings, who knows when the next time will be.

"Also..."

Uesugi Gen showed his hideous face, "I'm jealous!"

"You are obviously my stubborn girl, how can you think about other men, even if he is your brother."

A helpless voice came from my arms, "Really? How can you be like this? What if you have a child in the future? Are you going to be jealous of the child?"

Uesugi Gen lowered his head and asked in surprise: "You want to have a baby with me?"

"That's not what I meant."

Horikita Suzune was a little angry.

"Ring tone."

Uesugi Gen suddenly called out Horikita Suzune's name.

"Ok?"

Horikita Suzune raised her head and found that Uesugi Gen was staring at her.

"I want to kiss you, can I?"

Horikita Suzune suddenly said in a panic: "Wait, wait, I don't plan to go to high school---uh!"

Before Horikita Suzune could say no, Uesugi Gen lowered his head and covered Horikita Suzune's pink lips, greedily breathing in her scent.

As Uesugi Gen went deeper, the little hands that had been constantly patting him gradually became weaker, and finally rested peacefully on his chest...

……

After a long time, as Horikita Suzune's breathing became heavier, Uesugi Gen finally released his lips.

"Asshole... I already told you I don't plan on... having a relationship in high school."

"Yeah, I know, so what we are doing now is just a friendly act between friends."

Uesugi Gen wholeheartedly supports his good friend Horikita Suzune's decision to focus on studying instead of dating.

"Do you think I'm stupid? How can this be a normal act of friendship?"

Horikita Suzune wiped the corner of her mouth with her hand and glared at Uesugi Gen.

"Why not?"

Uesugi Gen said confidently, "Suzune, you didn't have any friends before. How can you say that this behavior is not an act of friendship?"

"you……"

Horikita Suzune was about to continue arguing, but suddenly she was like a deflated pufferfish, "Forget it, I can't argue with your twisted logic. Remember this, I, Horikita Suzune, will not be dating for the next three years of high school."

"I know. I know Lingyin doesn't plan to get married in the future."

Uesugi Gen said to Horikita Suzune with a smile on his face.

"Not bad!"

Horikita Suzune, leaning in Uesugi Gen's arms, nodded with satisfaction.

Uesugi Gen suddenly asked, "How many children do you plan to have in the future?"

"A man and a woman are the most——"

"..."

The two looked at each other, saying nothing.

"Uesugi Gen!!!"

Horikita Suzune's embarrassed and angry voice echoed in the room.
