"Yes, yes~ scumbag, scumbag. A charming playboy, really rock 'n' roll~?"

As Taoxiang spoke, her little hands started to become unruly.

Considering her current position of sleeping on his legs, Luo Zhen quickly persuaded her:

"Hey Momoka, we have to go to work later. Today is the convenience store, and Subaru will be there too, so we can't be late..."

Momoka: "Then let's make it quick. It only takes three minutes anyway, so we can make it in time~?"

Three minutes... She actually said it would only take three minutes?!

The rock girl looked up at her little boyfriend, her narrowed eyes filled with playful teasing, and she seemed to be enjoying it.

Luo Zhen had never suffered such humiliation before, so of course he accepted the challenge!

-------------------------------------

At the end of the day, both of them had their hair messed up from running, and they rushed all the way to the convenience store where they worked to punch in.

Miss Subaru, who was calm and composed, waved calmly, with an expression that showed she understood exactly what they had just done, and smiled happily.

Every day is so busy and fulfilling that Luo Zhen feels happy to the point of luxury.

Not only Momoka and Yoshizawa sisters, the establishment of the light music club also allowed him to come into contact with more lovely schoolmates.

Working at [Qunxing] has further broadened his horizons, and maybe he can even help Taoxiang form a band in the future.

Luo Zhen was very satisfied and thought that he might as well consider the agent industry.

Xing: "Shiho, have you noticed that Luo Zhen is grinning more and more often?"

At noon at school, the trio gathered in the courtyard to eat lunch as usual, and Luo Zhen was once again teased by two beautiful classmates.

Ever since the Kamoshida issue was resolved, Luo Zhen would deliberately bring Shiho out every day when she had lunch with Takamaki An.

According to her, it was just right because Shiho had withdrawn from the volleyball club and felt a little awkward interacting with other classmates.

Luo Zhen certainly welcomes Shiho to join, there is absolutely no problem with that.

......But, some of the things Xing did were too explicit.

She insisted on squeezing Shiho in the middle, letting her sit next to Luo Zhen, and herself stuck on the other side.

When the three of them were eating and chatting, she was very active in bringing up the topic of Luo Zhen and Shiho, and her tendency to force it was really obvious.

This girl is only suitable to be a model and absolutely cannot develop into the entertainment industry...Luo Zhen directly sentenced her future to death.

After hearing what Xing said, Zhifan also smiled in a very Buddhist way:

"That's great. If Luo Zhenjun is happy and can enjoy campus life, I'll be happy too."

Xing: "Wow~! Shiho, why are you so nice? All the men in this world who don't like you are definitely idiots! (.>?<.)"

Wow, classmate Gao Juan Xing, you are really going too far with this map cannon... Luo Zhen ate silently without saying a word, only complaining in his heart.

Xing was completely partial to her best friend, and she felt embarrassed by Shiho's flattery, and could only laugh awkwardly.

Xing finished her meal quickly and then made an excuse to go buy some drinks.

Before standing up, she deliberately pushed Shiho towards Luo Zhen:

"Luo Zhenjun, you have to protect Shiho well and don't let any bugs hit on her! I'll be back in about 10 minutes... no, 20 minutes! I'll leave it to you!"

Luo Zhen: "Isn't there a vending machine right next to this? Where are you going to buy a drink and it will take you 20 minutes?"

Luo Zhen's complaints could only be dissipated by Gao Juanxing's lively back, and he could not keep up with her at all.

As a result, Luo Zhen could only look at Shiho, who was pushed into his arms, in bewilderment.

Her curvy figure pressed against Luo Zhen, allowing him to feel the gracefulness of that athletic girl... She was much bigger than the two sisters who practiced gymnastics and Taoxiang.

"...Ah, I'm sorry, Master Luo..."

Shiho seemed stunned for a long time. After a long time, she straightened up and adjusted her ponytail with a blushing face.

Luo Zhen shook his head. "It's okay. I should apologize. I'm sorry I couldn't stop Xing's nonsense."

"Shiho, if you don't like this, you should have told Xing. That girl is a bit of a crowd pleaser. Although she's a nice person, she tends to be a bit reluctant to listen to others."

That's true, Shiho chuckled.

"That's the charm of Xing. She's so cheerful and sunny, and she can get along with everyone. She's even been friends with someone like me who's shy and doesn't dare to talk. She even offered to help me pursue boys. I really don't know how to thank her enough."

"But sometimes you take it too far, don't you?"

Luo Zhen also said, "This kind of thing can't be forced by others. No matter how suitable she thinks it is, if the person involved doesn't have any ideas, it will only make people feel awkward."

"...But what if I really have an idea?"

Luo Zhen's smile froze on his face.

Shiho took the initiative to hold Luo Zhen's hand on his leg, and this time he took the initiative to move closer.

Her face turned red all the way to her ears, and she kept tidying up the hair hanging down by her ears.

When Luo Zhen didn't know how to respond, she took the initiative to raise her moist eyes:

"I like Luo Zhenjun. It was love at first sight. I fell in love with you the first day I met you."

"You helped me so eagerly, you could even say you saved me. Later, at school, you protected me in front of Kamoshida... That was when I knew I really fell in love with you. Your image lingers in my mind, making me miss you more and more every day..."

Luo Zhen: "...Thank you, I'm honored."

To be honest, Luo Zhen couldn't remember the last time he was so embarrassed.

This was even more stressful than when he confessed his feelings to Momoka, or when the twins dragged him into the hotel.

He could actually guess what Shiho was thinking, but he definitely didn't expect this introverted volleyball girl to muster up the courage to confess.

Just by looking at the tears in her eyes, Luo Zhen knew how hard she was trying.

Therefore, Luo Zhen had to answer seriously:

"I'm sorry Shiho. I already have someone I like and I can't accept you anymore."

Luo Zhen took Shiho's hand in his and gently put her back.

Shiho took a deep breath... and then let out a long, trembling exhale.

She held back her tears and smiled:

"Yes, I know. I can tell from the look in your eyes, Luo Zhenjun, that you don't have that kind of feeling towards me."

"Even though I know there's no hope, I still can't bear it and want to say it out loud. Otherwise, Xing, who has worked so hard for me, will be too pitiful. I can't let her down."

"......Feel sorry."

Luo Zhen couldn't answer any more and could only apologize.

Shiho is of course a good girl, and she is also beautiful and has a good figure. As a man, Luo Zhen naturally feels her attraction.

But there is still a lack of some absolute connection between them, and there is no chance for further progress.

Of course, Zhifan didn't know the secret in Luo Zhen's heart, so he just smiled with relief:

"Although everyone says that Luo Zhenjun is a scumbag who plays with multiple girls at once. From the first-year twin stars to the third-year student council president, you've all been smitten, and you pick new girls every day...but that's actually not the case at all."

Luo Zhen: "Why does this rumor keep evolving every day? Who's been keeping an eye on my social circle all day? I know everyone I meet."

This is amazing. Are there paparazzi in this school who are specifically watching me?

Shiho didn't bother explaining:

"I know what kind of person Luo Zhenjun is. You're enthusiastic and proactive. You enjoy helping others without asking for anything in return. If you wanted to be a scumbag, you'd have plenty of opportunities... You even took me to a love hotel before, but you still didn't do anything."

That was truly a special case...Luo Zhen had no way to defend himself.

"...But I really hope that you are not the kind of scumbag who casually hits women."

...tick.

Finally, Shiho couldn't hold back her tears, and they fell on the back of Luo Zhen's hand.

She leaned against Luo Zhen's chest, unwilling to retreat with full of fascination.

She hugged Luo Zhen's back, her healthy and tall body buried in his arms:

"I'm sorry, Master Luo, it's only for a moment... Let me borrow Xing's position and enjoy it for a moment... Just for a moment, I won't disturb you anymore..."

"... Xing and I don't have that kind of relationship, really."

Luo Zhen had no way to defend himself.

Although he wanted to push Shiho away, when he felt the wetness on his chest, he was forced to stay where he was.

...He was really a scumbag now, so he could only pat Shiho on the back silently.

Even though he already has three girlfriends, he still can't decisively push Zhifan away and is determined to keep his distance.

There is really no excuse for being scolded... Luo Zhen can only apologize to his girlfriends in his heart.

"...As expected, Master Luo just can't refuse others."

After a while, Zhifan, with red eyes, finally burst into laughter.

She still leaned in Luo Zhen's arms, enjoying the intimate distance that should be exclusive to girlfriends.

But she raised her eyes maliciously:

"So that's why Luo Zhenjun is said to be a scumbag, right? At a time like this, you should have pushed me away and let me grieve on my own."

"If I keep dragging my feet like this with every girl who confesses to me and can't clearly reject her, Xing will be really sad."

Luo Zhen: "No... I admit my problems, but Xing Zhen and I are not in that kind of relationship. I don't have any feelings for her..."

Shiho: "But she has feelings for you. Kyouya has been in love with you for a long time, don't you know?"

Shiho's clear eyes, still tinged with tears, made Luo Zhen's throat choke and he was speechless.

......Xing likes me?

That big, carefree golden retriever? Just a hot, dumb guy?

Aren’t she and I buddies?

Is it the kind of love that a brother has for a boy? Or is it the kind of love that a girl has for a boy?

Shiho looked at Luo Zhen's confused eyes and understood more clearly:

"You wouldn't be so decisive in rejecting Xing. That's what we call love, Luo Zhenjun."

"Maybe there's someone you like more, but you definitely have feelings for Xing. That means there's still a chance... You have so many flaws that it's easy for a bad woman to take advantage of you."

Shiho suddenly came over and attacked.

She hooked her arms around Luo Zhen's neck and kissed him on the face.

The girl's boldness was beyond Luo Zhen's expectations. He didn't expect that she would go to this extent after being rejected.

This time she actually took a step back, and made a "Shh~" gesture with her index finger on her lips:

"This is a secret between us. Don't tell Xing, okay?"

"I'm Xing's friend and will help her until the very end. Regardless of whether Luo Zhenjun has a girlfriend or not, I will help her struggle until the very last moment."

"If you don't want to let your girlfriend down, Luo Zhenjun, you must learn to be more resolute. You must be prepared to make a girl cry. Ditch me, reject me. Otherwise, with a girl as good as Xing, sooner or later you'll succumb to temptation and cheat on her, okay~?"

Luo Zhen: "...I sincerely hope that day won't come. But I will try my best. Thank you, Shiho."

Luo Zhen thanked him sincerely.

Shiho's brave core was beyond his imagination, and all he did was to warn him.

It's one thing not to have the heart to reject a girl.

But if you keep a passive attitude and don't refuse, sooner or later you will hurt more people.

Luo Zhen didn't want this to happen. He didn't want to hurt anyone.

It is already a miracle that the Yoshizawa sisters and Momoka can live together now, and Luo Zhen really wants to protect them.

"...Yeah. Come on, Luo Zhenjun, resist the temptation and don't cheat."

Shiho wiped away the tears that were welling up again, but kept smiling at the same time.

She actually had one more thing to say, the real desire in her heart that she didn't express.

If he really wanted to cheat, he hoped he could practice cheating with her first… She was trying hard to hide this lowly thought.
