Ichinose, you will regret it.

"Although what you said about playing games is a bit superficial, it's generally not a problem."

"You rejected my challenge just to play games?"

Arisu Sakayanagi still had her smile on, but her tone, through clenched teeth, revealed her inner unrest.

"Ah, that's the obvious choice, isn't it?"

Uesugi Gen pushed up his nonexistent glasses and responded calmly.

"So, in Uesugi-san's eyes, my existence is not even as good as a game, right?"

At this moment, Arisu Sakayanagi could no longer maintain her smile that looked like she had everything under control, and questioned Uesugi Gen.

Uesugi Gen looked Sakayanagi Arisu up and down again.

You? The game? Which is more important?

"Heh~"

Uesugi Gen laughed silently.

You woman have absolutely no self-awareness!

This silent laugh had already given the answer for Uesugi Gen, and everything was said without words...

Sakayanagi Arisu, who perfectly understood the meaning of Uesugi Gen's smile, had unknowingly had a blush on her fair face - she was angry.

Her small chest kept rising and falling. It was the first time in her life that she was made so angry by a man.

Arisu Sakayanagi suppressed the anger in his heart and forced a smile on his face.

"If Uesugi-san isn't interested in playing chess with me, then are you interested in individual points?"

Yes, she vowed to teach this man who looked down on her a lesson he would never forget.

In response to this, Uesugi Gen sighed.

"You still don't understand, Miss Sakayanagi. A game invitation between men means that no matter when or where, once you see the invitation, you must go to the appointment even if it means traveling thousands of miles."

"So, Ms. Sakayanagi, give up. There's no need for you to face an enemy you can't defeat. Do you understand?"

Uesugi Gen gave his final advice as a mentor of life experience.

I get it!

This is just a ridiculous excuse you made up!

Just as Arisu Sakayanagi was about to use the crutch in her hand to hit Gen Uesugi hard, she found that Gen Uesugi had disappeared several meters away.

"Well, goodbye, Miss Sakayanagi."

Uesugi Gen waved to Sakayanagi Arisu at the end of the road.

"Although playing chess with you is boring, the way you get angry is still quite cute. I'll play something else with you next time if we have the chance."

Arisu Sakayanagi looked at Gen Uesugi with anger in his eyes.

I want to play chess with you!

……

"Hey, is your chess game over?"

When Uesugi Gen was running away, he happened to see Kamuro Masumi who was coming back from buying drinks.

I took a bottle of Coke from her and took a sip.

"It's over. Go back now. I have undoubtedly lost this game."

After saying that, Uesugi Gen jumped out of the library.

Then, looking at Sakayanagi Arisu whose small chest kept rising and falling in front of him, he recalled Uesugi Gen who was running as fast as a bird just now.

Kamuro Masumi asked a soul-searching question.

"Who won this chess game?"

Chapter 105 You Say It!

There are only two days left and Gao Yu’s summer vacation is about to come to an end.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the scorching summer sun also tried its best to emit its last bit of heat, hitting the earth directly and distorting the distant scenery.

The students in Class B were also annoyed by the hot atmosphere, and after discussion as a class, they unanimously decided to go swimming in the school's open swimming pool.

However, before that, they have to convince someone...

"I do not want!!"

A miserable sound came from a room in the boys' dormitory, startling even the cicadas outside the window and temporarily stopping their chirping.

The people waiting at the door looked at each other and sighed in unison.

Sure enough, it’s not that easy to call this guy out.

At this time, Uesugi Gen put one hand around Ichinose's slender waist, buried his head in Ichinose's arms, and escaped from reality like an ostrich.

"I do not want!"

Uesugi Gen reiterated it again and then began to lie with his eyes open.

"I've contracted a disease that kills me if exposed to the sun. These past few days, whenever I leave this room and lose the protection of the air conditioning, I'll be hit by AOE damage from the outside world, constantly losing health, and eventually turning into a dried-up salted fish."

And after speaking, Uesugi Gen even went further, trying to pull Ichinose into his camp, and began to describe the horror of ultraviolet rays in a dramatic manner.

"Ichinose, let me tell you, long-term and frequent sun exposure will accelerate skin aging. If Ichinose's skin is exposed to too much sun, wrinkles will form, and Ichinose will become unsightly."

As Uesugi Gen spoke, he pulled Ichinose's smooth little hand and rubbed it in his palm, then continued.

"Besides, excessive exposure to strong sunlight in a short period of time can cause skin redness and swelling. The sun is so strong outside right now that it could easily get sunburned by students who go out to play."

As he was talking, Ichinose was confused by Uesugi Gen's words and was a little shaken for a moment.

"That--"

"Hey Uesugi, is there a possibility that there's something called sunscreen that can prevent these problems?"

Kanzaki Ryuji, who was eavesdropping outside the door, noticed that Ichinose had softened his heart, and immediately jumped out to remind Ichinose to stand firm.

"Shut up, Kanzaki. No one will think you're dumb if you don't speak."

Seeing that his plan failed, Uesugi Gen raised his head and shouted towards the door.

"Then... if Yuan-jun doesn't plan to go out these few days, what are we going to do with food?"

Ichinose did not refute Uesugi Gen's words, but instead followed Uesugi Gen's line of thought and asked further questions.

"Why don't you just let me take Ichinose with me?"

Uesugi Gen replied without even looking up.

"..."

Everyone outside the door thought of the same thing.

This person is so shameless!

Ichinose touched Uesugi Gen's head and spoke softly.

"But, I want to go with Gen-kun."

"Why, Ichinose doesn't like the hot weather outside, does she?"

Uesugi Gen asked.

When I mentioned the harmful effects of ultraviolet rays just now, Ichinose's hesitation for a moment was definitely correct. She also didn't like this kind of weather.

"Because, even if the sun is a little brighter, I still prefer being with Gen-kun to being alone in my room."

"If Yuan-jun doesn't go, he will definitely play games in his room. This way, we will have less time together. I don't want this."

Uesugi Gen was silent for a while, and then he suddenly thought of something.

Ichinose...it seemed like she had never disturbed him when he was playing games. Even when she came to see him and saw him playing games, she would stay quietly by the side and wait for him to finish before talking to her about business.

"And ah..."

Ichinose continued, "There are only two days left before summer vacation ends. I want to leave some memories of us this summer. On the deserted island and on the cruise ship, you were always busy with exams and never relaxed."

Uesugi Gen sighed and left Ichinose's arms, "You..."

"Come on, let's go swimming."

Uesugi Gen smoothed Ichinose's skirt and pulled her up.

"Ok!"

Ichinose smiled and nodded emphatically.

"But before that..."

Uesugi Gen looked at Ichinose, put his finger on his lips, and made a gesture to keep quiet. Then his gaze shifted to the door in vain, and he showed a vicious smile.

Ichinose smiled knowingly and obediently let Uesugi Gen hold her hand and walk with her.

As the two of them quietly walked to the door, the originally faint sound gradually became clearer.

"Why is there no sound? Hey, don't squeeze in the back!"

"Kanzaki, move aside, you're stepping on my foot."

"You've heard enough, it's my turn, it's my turn!"

"Stop arguing, it's because it's too noisy that I can't hear you."

……

Hearing everyone's discussions, Ichinose's face slowly turned red. It seemed that even Ichinose, who was usually frank in class, would feel shy in this situation.

Looking at Ichinose's red little face, Uesugi Gen couldn't help but raise his hand and pinch it gently.

The two looked at each other.

【Now you know you’re shy, right?】

【It’s all your fault! 】

Ichinose, holding Uesugi Gen's hand, gently hit Uesugi Gen's back.

【Watch me.】

Uesugi Gen put his fist to his mouth, cleared his throat, and spoke slowly.

"Ah~, Ichinose, let's go. I suddenly remembered something that I have to go to."

Ok?

What could force Uesugi to go swimming?

Everyone outside the door pricked up their ears.

Ichinose immediately understood what he meant and continued the conversation with a smile on her face.

"I'm a little curious about what forced Uesugi-kun to go swimming. Could you tell me?"

Yes, we are curious too!

Everyone outside the door nodded in unison.

"This..."

Uesugi Gen lowered the volume but just enough to be heard clearly outside the door.

"Actually, not long ago, Kanzaki quietly told me that he liked a girl in our class, and asked me to help create an opportunity for the two of them to get along if I had the chance."???

Nani! ! !

"..."

They suddenly felt that the melons of Uesugi and Ichinose were not sweet enough. Look at this melon in front of them, it is big and round, it is really the best!

On the surface, everyone had no reaction to this matter, but their eyes had already secretly shifted to Kanzaki Ryuji.

What the hell!
