I am the emotional sustenance of your deceased

"Huh? Uh... is that so?"

Su Shi's hand holding the teacup trembled again and again, and finally he managed to put it on the tray steadily.

"Is that so? Well, a lot of people have gone through this."

"It's just that my friend is very unfortunate. She met someone who is only good to her, who treats her well, who cares about her and takes care of her. I'm afraid you won't meet such a person in your whole life."

After all...aren't all humans selfish?

Qiansui walked around behind Su Shi and pinched the other's cute little face.

In front of Su Shi, she kissed the index and middle fingers of her left hand, and then gently pressed these two fingers on Su Shi's face.

A faint lipstick mark appeared on Su Shi's cheek like a dazzling meteor.

"Baby, I'm going to make you dinner. Don't worry, I've specially learned some of your favorite dishes. You've worked hard at school."

No, actually it’s not hard at all. After all, I’m so happy to think that I can stay with you on the weekends.

Su Shi said nothing, just stared at Qiansui's back.

[Will I never meet him in my lifetime? But why do I feel like... I've already met him?]

Su Shi was certain that Qiansui's mother was the kind of person that was hard to meet in one's lifetime.

Poor unknown person, I will cherish the people who are important to me. I will never be like you and neglect my treasures!

Nagasaki Suyo's eyes were full of determination, as if she had made some kind of decision.

Ch88. Your interpersonal relationships are terrible.

Tsuki no Mori Girls' Academy Junior High School.

It's cloudy today, and the sky is completely covered with clouds.

Is there a big difference between junior high school and elementary school? Is there a big difference between a prestigious girls' school and a regular girls' school?

Maybe everything changed so quickly that Su Shi became a little numb.

She didn't think the difference was that big.

My brain was completely confused by Noshiro Chitose's tenderness, and I was completely unable to think.

[The one you cherish? The one you cherish! The one you cherish...]

How can you treat the people you cherish well...especially the one you cherish who is like a mother to you.

Should you give gifts, send blessings, or achieve something to make the other person proud of you?

Hmm… or maybe try all three?

"Shigasaki-san, please pay attention."

The teacher whispered as he walked past Sushi, not attracting anyone's attention.

In a hurry, Su Shi nodded quickly and lowered his head to look at the textbook.

[Ah, when did the teacher come over here... How many times this week have I been in a daze?]

Today is Wednesday, the last working week before the Golden Week holiday.

But the number of times Su Shi was daydreaming at school this week was definitely much greater than the days he was in school.

It’s year old!

It was she who faded away the rest of the worldly senses time and time again, leaving only memories and imagination to constantly outline the every move of the white-haired beauty.

Su Shi's reverie made her go through more than a month of campus life without realizing it, and it was like a glue that helped Su Shi slowly adapt to such a life.

until--

"Su Shi, I want to tell you a secret. You have to promise not to tell anyone!"

Kyomoto Huizuka, a classmate with white hair and golden eyes, walked over to Su Shi's desk after class and quietly gestured for him to follow him.

"Huh? Okay."

Su Shi looked at a few girls not far away, because if nothing unexpected happened and she was not busy with her studies, Su Shi would go to chat with the classmates she was familiar with during every break.

Those classmates are very nice.

At least that's what Su Shi thought.

"Suyo!" [Kyomoto Huizuka] pulled the other person to the fruit tree in the garden of the campus horticulture department, and after looking around and finding that there was no one around, he slowly spoke.

"Are your father and mother divorced?"

"!!!"

Su Shi's heart skipped a beat. She really didn't expect Huizuka-san to say these words to her.

This sentence immediately washed away her good mood of the whole day, and also made Su Shihe, who was still a little dazed, wake up immediately as if a bucket of cold water was poured on her.

"No, why do you ask?"

She rarely used any honorifics or polite expressions, and the smile on her face was a little hard to hold back.

Su Shi remembered that these little secrets seemed to be known only by her few friends...and she just accidentally let one slip before.

How did Kyomoto Haizuka find out?

"Su Shi, don't lie to me. This is actually true."

"..."

"Sorry, Kyomoto, I have something to do right now... I..."

"Su Shi, don't you want to know how I found out?"

"How did you know?"

Su Shi felt that someone was exposing her scars, and she also vaguely knew who told Kyomoto.

Was it one of the girls he was on good terms with who told Haizuka?

"That's what Xinhuan told me. Um, have you offended her recently?"

Xinhuan, a little girl with white hair and golden eyes who looks 80% like Haizuka.

"Huh? What?"

Su Shi racked his brains to think about what happened in the past, but he couldn't get any effective answers.

Did I offend my classmates? Is this true?

Looking at Su Shi's confused and bewildered look, [Kyomoto Huizuka] continued without hesitation:

"She told me everything about you. Um, didn't you reject her once when she invited you to her birthday party?"

Is it because of such a small matter that you are spreading other people's personal privacy? No way...

"Of course it wasn't because of something like this. Um... well, she was probably discussing this in front of a lot of people, right? And she probably felt like you didn't give her face, since you were so distracted at the time, right?"

“This is too…”

What the hell is going on? Why do I have to tell myself such messy and annoying things so early in the morning?

Su Shi took a deep breath and tried her best to maintain her polite smile, but she was almost unable to smile.

Why did you reject that classmate at that time?

Because it was Friday.

Su Shi couldn't wait to go home and spend the whole day with Chitose... taking a bath together, eating together, sleeping in the same bed together, and doing everything a normal mother and daughter would do.

Well...what a normal mother and daughter would do here comes from Nagasaki Suyo's imagination. She has no idea what the daily life of a mother and daughter who have a good relationship would be like.

It’s not that she has a bad relationship with her biological mother, it’s just that Chitose’s mother spends more time with her, alas.

"So I'm here to tell you, am I being very loyal?"

Is this girl taking credit? But...

"Why are you telling me this?"

"Because we are good friends, and I had a good impression of you before, so I'm telling you."

Su Shi took a step back. She had a very strange feeling.

Like someone was setting a trap for her...? Very strange.

"What else is there? I want to know more."

"Yes, there are many more... Well, basically everyone knows about you."

"Huh? What? What about me?"

"Everything you and your friends shared. They formed a small discussion group. Did you not see anyone when you returned to the classroom after lunch yesterday? They were all gathered for a meeting."

Kyomoto Huizuka seemed to feel that what he said was not comprehensive enough, so he continued to add a few more words.

Her voice continued: "It's about your meeting."

"???"

what?

what?

The more Su Shi listened, the more confused she became, and she even felt like the other person was telling a fairy tale.

"You mean, everyone has isolated me, and there's a discussion group sharing my personal privacy?"

"Well, some of them are planning to reveal some of your private matters... like your Oedipus complex and your parents' divorce. It seems they're really upset with you."

What Oedipus?!

ha? !

"This is a rumor... How can this be..."

"Spreading rumors? I don't know. Anyway, this is what I want to say to Miss Su Shi."

Kyomoto Huizuka held Nagasaki Suyo's shoulders, and tried his best to maintain a strong and friendly tone:

"Ms. Su Shi's interpersonal relationships are truly terrible. Now I'm the only one willing to tell you this."

The golden eyes sparkled, but how many lies were hidden in them? No one knew.

Ch89. What would Chitose do?

Your interpersonal relationships are terrible.

They formed a clique and isolated you.

[Now, except for me, no one is willing to tell you this. ]

Su Shi's pupils were trembling. It was morning, the most comfortable and relaxed time of the day for the brain.

But hearing such words at this time...whether true or false, will make people feel unhappy.

She paused, trying to sound calm.

"What should I do now... I mean, should I go and ask the other party at this time?"

"It's a very awkward idea, but you can try it."

"Kyomoto, can you give me some advice? Facing this situation..."

Su Shi obviously found that she was having difficulty breathing, as if she was a drowning victim.

"Well, I'm not sure either."

"Who are those small groups? You can always tell me this."

"Most of them don't want to be known, you know, a lot of them are just listening to gossip, they don't want you to know that they are involved."

"..."

Kyomoto Huizuka said it, but it seemed like he said nothing.

Su Shi felt like someone was holding a balloon filled with water and hitting her in the face. It was very cold, and you knew there was water in it... but there was a layer of balloon skin separating the water and her face.

Neither up nor down.
