People are in the music show, but the Yorozuya

Nagasaki Suyo nodded in understanding.

"Tsk, don't say such harsh words."

"So this is why you don't get up so early in the morning?"

"Hey, it's normal to sleep in on the weekends, right?"

Otonashi Sota tried to justify his lazy behavior.

"Students like you definitely can't understand the hardships of adults. I work so hard during the weekdays, so what's wrong with sleeping in on the weekends?"

"No, I can understand. After all, my mother often sleeps until noon on weekends."

As Nagasaki Suyo said this, Asano no Sota gave her a suspicious look.

"But what I can't understand is, do you really work hard normally?"

Although Nagasaki Suyo didn't know much about the work at the Yorozuya, she felt that Otonashi Sota didn't seem like the type to work hard. Moreover, this guy had a lot of free time, and he could form a band and play games with Xiangzi.

You call this hard work???

"Ahem, of course. I can only say that you understand by the time you reach my age that the hardships of adults are often hidden from others."

Otonashi Zoutai spoke earnestly without blushing or breathing heavily.

"Don't act like a heavy-handed adult to me. Is that your personality?"

Nagasaki Suyo rolled her eyes and said speechlessly.

In January 2025, Miao Meng was preparing to go to Los Angeles. Xiangzi was shocked: "There's a big fire there right now, what are you going to do?" Miao Meng replied: "To take advantage of the popularity."


Chapter 109: Truth or Dare?

"No, why do you act like you understand me so well? Is it possible that I, like Hong Kai, also carry a heavy past?"

Otonashi Sota sipped his black tea while speaking righteously,

"Shigasaki, you really only think about yourself."

"Huh...? Are you trying to piss me off on purpose?"

A big "bei" appeared on Nagasaki Sushi's forehead, and he said with an unhappy look,

"I'd like to know more about you, but I'd like you to tell me. For example, where did you go to school? What's your family situation like? Why did you choose to open a jack-of-all-trades shop after graduation instead of going to college? Why do you have so many amazing skills..."

As if she had finally found a breakthrough, Nagasaki Soyo threw out a lot of questions at once, which in turn blocked Otonashi Sota.

Oh no, this seems to have brought up a rather troublesome topic.

But then again, why do this chick have so many problems?

“Stop, stop, stop—!”

Otonashi Sota quickly made a stop gesture, blocking Nagasaki Suyo's endless chatter, and at the same time said with a bit of a smile,

"You throw so many questions at me at once, how can I answer them?"

"So, are you willing to answer?"

Nagasaki Suyo folded her hands and held up her chin, looking at him with a smile.

"Putting aside some questions about personal privacy, I don't mind. I have always been honest with my friends."

Otonashi Sota said calmly.

He, Otonashi Sota, has always sat upright and stood straight in his life, and there is nothing he needs to hide.

Unless you ask him how many times a week he plays, he'll be happy to answer.

"That's what you said!"

When Nagasaki Suyo heard what Otonashi Sota said, her eyes suddenly lit up.

"But before I answer your question... ahem, Shigaraki, do you think my tea will be filled on its own?"

Otonashi Kanata leaned back in his chair and lazily pointed at the empty cup in front of him.

Cricket soyo, look how easily I can control it.

Nagasaki Suyo sighed silently, but still picked up the teapot and poured a cup of steaming hot black tea for Otonashi Sota.

"Can i do it now?"

"of course."

Otonashi Sota chuckled and nodded.

"Well...let me ask you, why did you choose to open a jack-of-all-trades shop after graduating from high school instead of going to college? Was it because of your poor grades or something else?"

Nagasaki Suyo thought about it and decided to start with a less personal issue and first find out about Otonashi Souta's past.

"Ahem, I'm not very talented, but back in school my deviation score was over 70, so it was easy for me to get into the University of Tokyo."

"What? Is this true?!"

Nagasaki Suyo was shocked. No, my friend, it’s not enough that you have so many skills, but you are also so good at studying?

"Of course it's true. Why did I lie to you?"

"Then why didn't you go to college?"

Nagasaki Motoyo was even more confused now. It would be fine if you chose to start your own business because of your poor grades, but your grades are so good, you are a super student who can go to the University of Tokyo, so why don’t you go?

"Because I don't think college is interesting."

Otonashi Sota shrugged and said,

"Instead of getting into a good university and then working as a wage earner after graduation, I might as well just be my own boss from the start."

"Then why is it the Yorozuya?"

"Because I like helping others, and it's easier to do so."

"Hmm... I didn't realize you were so confident."

Nagasaki Suyo looked at Otonashi Sota with some admiration. You know, the University of Tokyo is the dream of countless students. In the eyes of ordinary people, getting admitted to the University of Tokyo is almost linked to changing your life.

Some people give up on getting into the University of Tokyo and choose to take another path they want. This is definitely not a choice that ordinary people can make.

"By the way, are your parents really that open-minded? They actually support you making such a choice."

"Uh...about that."

When he heard Nagasaki Suyo mention the topic of her parents, Otonashi Kanata scratched his head and chose to deal with it vaguely.

It’s not because this topic is a sensitive point for him, but mainly because he is a little afraid that Nagasaki Suyo will be like Xiangzi, showing all kinds of kindness to him after hearing that he is an orphan.

Although they all meant well and were kind, it was really embarrassing, as if he was deliberately trying to gain sympathy. So since he told Xiangzi that he was an orphan, Otonashi Sota had no intention of telling anyone about his family situation.

Who knows if Nagasaki Suyo will have a maternal outburst and say to him, "Although you have lost your parents, you still have me. I can definitely be your mother!"

He is not Char.

"Then the second question."

After digesting the answer to the first question, Nagasaki Suyo seemed to have tasted the sweetness and was ready to ask the second question.

"Wait, I can answer your questions, but it's always you who asks. Isn't that a bit unfair? You've always understood me, so it's time for me to understand you, right?"

Otonashi Sota said.

"Hmm....what you said makes sense. How about we each ask a question?"

As Nagasaki Suyo was talking, she couldn't help laughing.

"But then again, it feels like a game of truth or dare."

"If it's truth or dare, the questions raised are too sensitive and will intrude on other people's privacy."

"...That seems like a good idea. Do you want to go bigger?"

Nagasaki Suyo knocked on the table, and her watery eyes glanced lightly at Otonashi Sota.

"Um... For example, who do you think will be the next Prime Minister?"

"Is it really this sensitive?!"

Nagasaki Suyo almost couldn't catch her breath and was almost choked to death by Otonashi Sota.

"Hahaha, I'm just teasing you. Just asking something casually."

Otonashi Sota laughed out loud.

Then the two of them asked each other questions one by one, and after several times, they both deepened their understanding and impression of each other.

Nagasaki Suyo got more information as she wished. Although Otonashi Sota was not very curious about Nagasaki Suyo's affairs, it was a good opportunity to get to know her friend better.

"Okay, is 'Truth or Dare' almost over here?"

Otonashi Sota clapped his hands and prepared to end the topic. He had almost said everything he could about his basic situation. If he continued talking, he might really have to talk to Nagasaki Motoyo about XP.

"....I have one last question, is that okay?"

Nagasaki Suyo took a sip of tea to moisten her throat, her eyes revealing anticipation.

"Okay, but you have to pay for lunch today."

Otonashi Sota snapped his fingers. He was a Sigma man and would never suffer any loss in front of a woman.

"no problem."

Nagasaki Suyo agreed without hesitation. In fact, even if Otonashi Sota didn't say it, she would be happy to show off her skills.

"Okay, then you can ask."

Otonashi Souta chuckled, it was so cool to get something for free.

"My last question is.... Otonashi, do you like Mutsu?"

Nagasaki Suyo asked word by word.

"What kind of question is that? Sister, is there anyone in this world who doesn't like Xiao Mu? Only a god would be able to dislike Xiao Mu."

Otonashi Kanata looked at Nagasaki Suyo in confusion.

"I don't mean the kind of liking someone as a friend, but the kind of liking someone like him or her."

Nagasaki Suyo added.

Ever since she felt that Xiaomu might like Otonashi Sota last time, she has been looking for an opportunity to ask Otonashi Sota indirectly about his opinion of Xiaomu.

As Xiaomu's best friend, she felt it was necessary for her to help Xiaomu with his relationship.

After all, Xiao Mu has never been in love and can get hurt easily. She hates to see Xiao Mu get hurt the most.

"Huh? Didn't I tell you I'm single? I have absolutely no interest in dating, so I naturally treat Xiaomu as a friend, or even as a younger sister."

Otonashi Sota said without hesitation.

Although Xiaomu is cute, to be honest, Xiaomu's personality doesn't make him suitable as a relationship partner.

It would be better to say that all problematic girls who need to be loved and cared for are essentially not suitable for love.

Because love requires mutual understanding and dependence between both parties to continue. Blindly giving and caring will only slowly cultivate bitter fruits. Love based on appearance or sympathy will eventually be erased by time. This is the most real experience of Inuzota in his previous life.

So, Otonashi Sota will never fall in love with a problem girl in his life! If he could fall in love with a problem girl, he would jump off the building!

"Really? Xiao Mu is so cute, you're really not moved?"

Nagasaki Suyo asked quietly.

"No, sister, you gave yourself to me before, but I didn't feel moved, did I?"

Otonashi Souta Xiaoxiong spread his hands, looking helpless.

"...Let's not talk about this matter. We are still good friends."

The corner of Nagasaki Suyo's mouth twitched, but after confirming that Otonashi Sota really had no such intentions towards Xiaomu, she finally felt relieved.

Now she can rest assured to stop Xiaomu from liking Otonashi Sota. After all, Xiaomu's love will not lead to any result. Instead of letting her bump into him and get hurt, it is better to give up from the beginning.

(Mutouren: Oh my god, why is Soyo so mean?)

"But then again, you're not even moved by Xiao Mu. Could it be that you've been severely hurt in love before?"

To be honest, even though they are both girls, Nagasaki Suyo has to admit that Xiaomu's appearance is definitely the best among all the girls she knows.
