My fiancée Yukino

After a moment of silence, Tsurumi Rumi shook her head and said, "I don't know."

"Yes, that's a normal answer. No one can be sure they could handle it in a similar situation, but it's part of your growth. If you can't stand it, go back and talk to your parents. After all, we only met you by chance, and we can't solve everything for you."

It's best to discuss this with your family.

These words made Tsurumi Rumi shrink back, seemingly afraid to tell her family, since she was also a participant and a perpetrator from the beginning.

Although saying this might go against the style of the Service Department, Luo Bai still wants to say that we should put aside our desire to help others and respect their fate.

No one is a superhero, and no one can help with everything, especially bullying.

Although it wasn't particularly serious bullying, it was still bullying if you had to consider it. And since the person involved was a participant from the beginning, it was even more difficult to handle, as the feelings of other students had to be taken into account.

If they were from the same school, Luo Bai might have discussed a solution with Yukino, but since they were all elementary school students, and they only had two days together, it was impossible to resolve the issue so quickly.

Can a school bullying incident be resolved in just two days?

If this problem could really be solved, Luo Bai felt he could publish a book about it.

Back at the resort, Luo Bai saw everyone else sitting together, including Hiratsuka Shizuka.

With an unlit cigarette dangling from her mouth, Hiratsuka Shizuka waved her hand and said, "Come on over."

Luo Bai nodded and looked at Tsurumi Rumi to his right, saying, "We've been out for quite a while, let's go back first. If you want to come and play with us later, you can come right away."

Tsurumi hummed in agreement, then let go of Luo Bai's hand and jogged back.

After bringing Yukino back to the long table and sitting down, Luo Bai looked at Hiratsuka Shizuka and asked, "Do you have any plans for the afternoon?"

"Yes," Hiratsuka Shizuka said. "It'll be free time later. There's a large indoor sports field over here. You guys can go and be referees or something, and keep an eye out for them getting injured. Also, Luo Bai, have you and Yukino figured out how to help that girl named Tsurumi Rumi?"

Luo Bai knew this would happen.

He sat down next to Yang Nai, took a slice of watermelon, took a bite, and said, "I've already given her some advice, but if you want her to get back to normal with those girls, I suggest you don't even dream about it. It's impossible to do it in two or three days."

Then, Luo Bai briefly talked about Tsurumi Rumi.

Everyone was quite surprised after hearing this, as they never expected that Rumi Tsurumi would go from being the perpetrator to the victim.

Yumiko Miura rested her chin on her hand and said, "Seriously, is it that complicated? At worst, I just won't play with them anymore and will find other pretty girls to play with, right? Isn't she quite cute?"

Yui Yuigahama said with a smile, "It is indeed a method that Yumiko could think of, but it is not so easy to do, is it?"

Hayato Hayama frowned and said, "I still want to do my best to help her."

"Don't say anything polite, Hayama."

Luo Bai finished a slice of watermelon, wiped his hands with the tissue Yang Nai handed him, and looked at him, saying, "If you say something but can't do it, the one who will bear the consequences in the end won't be you, but Tsurumi Rumi, you understand?"

Luo Bai's words made Hayama Hayato's expression turn ugly.

Regarding Rumi Tsurumi's situation, in the end, everyone on Luo Bai's side, including the Hikigaya siblings and Yuihama, chose to support Luo Bai's actions.

Meanwhile, Hayato Hayama decided to continue acting in his own way.

Luo Bai was too lazy to persuade them; let them do whatever they wanted.

Anyway, it's not him who's suffering.

In the evening, dinner was provided by the resort, so we didn't have to cook for ourselves like we did at lunchtime, and it was quite a feast.

After dinner, the evening is free time, but going up the mountain is not allowed. The mountain paths at night are quite dangerous, especially for primary school students. If they get lost, it would be a serious matter.

However, there were no restrictions for high school students like Luo Bai.

Holding a can of cola, Luo Bai took a sip, glanced at the sunset in the distance, and slowly exhaled.

"What a beautiful view!"

Suddenly, a figure ran up from behind, grabbed Luo Bai, and clung to him.

Turning his head, Luo Bai saw Yang Nai's exquisite face.

"Yang Nai-jie, are you done taking a shower?"

"Yeah, I'm all done showering." Yang Nai happily hugged Luo Bai's neck, kissed him on the cheek, and said, "There aren't any decent public bathhouses around here, just shower stalls, so it's not very fun to shower here. I just quickly washed up and came out. Xiao Bai, why are you here all alone? Aren't you going to find someone else to play with? Ah, give me some Coke!"

While feeding Yang Nai the cola in his hand, Luo Bai said, "Hachigaya was dragged somewhere to play by her sister and Yui Hama, and as for the others, um... you don't want me to invite Totsuka Saika to play together, do you?"

After taking a couple of sips of iced cola, Yang Nai smacked her lips contentedly and said, "Hmm, never mind then, I don't want you to become gay. Yukino probably just finished washing up and is still drying her hair. The others are discussing playing cards in the room. Shiro, let's go out for a walk! It's been too hot this afternoon, I haven't really looked around much!"

"Okay, let's go then, but could you get off first?"

"Oh no! Don't carry me!"

Wearing casual trousers, Yang Nai's legs were wrapped around Luo Bai's waist, but she showed no intention of moving down at all.

Having no other choice, Luo Bai had to support her slightly as they walked forward.

Yang Nai also had a bright smile on her face, and she gave Luo Bai a big kiss on the cheek.

"Let's go, let's see if there are any small animals or anything. Are there any bears here?"

"You want a bear? You'll be lucky to see a squirrel or two. But we did spot a rat snake this morning, it was non-venomous."

"Sigh... Snakes are boring, let's look for a bear instead!"

After the two walked away, Miura Yumiko and Ebina Hina, who had finished taking a bath, came out.

Looking at the two figures in the distance, Hina Ebina asked curiously, "Is that Yukinoshita's older sister? She and Rokuhaku are so close!"

Yumiko Miura was also quite surprised, nodding and saying, "It seems they've known each other since childhood, but it's really rare to see them so close. I've met Yukinoshita twice, and she's not as easy to get along with as she seems on the surface."

Although Miura Yumiko was a bit arrogant, she wasn't stupid. She could vaguely sense the subtle distance between Haruno and everyone else, including when she was with Yuihama.

However, she didn't feel that way when facing Luo Bai, Sakurajima Mai, and Kasumigaoka Utaha, whom she was meeting for the first time today.

Hina Ebina wasn't particularly interested in Haruno's affairs. She tugged at Yumiko Miura's arm and said, "Let's go, Hina. Hayama and the others are waiting for us to go play Monopoly!"

Yumiko Miura reacted immediately.

"Well, let's go."

Compared to other things, playing with Hayama was more important to her.

Ten minutes later, Yukino and the others came out after washing and drying their hair. Seeing that Luo Bai and her sister were not there, Yukino took out her phone and sent a message to Luo Bai.

She quickly received Luo Bai's reply and, seeing that the two had gone into the mountains, wasn't worried. She said to Mai and Shiyu beside her, "Luo Bai was dragged into the mountains by her sister; she said she wanted to find a bear..."

"puff!"

Utaha Makoto

She couldn't hold back her laughter any longer and covered her mouth, saying, "Sister Yang Nai is so childlike? Did they really go looking for a bear?"

Yukino shrugged and said, "Most likely, my sister can be a bit crazy sometimes. Let them be, anyway, with Luo Bai around, they won't be in any danger."

Mai agreed, saying, "Yes, let them play. Let's go back to our room."

And so, the three of them went back to their dormitory to rest.

Luo Bai and Yang Nai didn't return from outside until after 8 p.m.

"Hi! I'm back!"

Yang Nai happily walked in as she opened the door to the girls' dormitory.

Yukino, who was already making the bed, looked at her and said, "Sister, it's too late."

"Well, it's alright. It was less than three hours. It's a rare opportunity to come to the mountains, and it was really fun to have a look around like this!"

Sitting on her bed, Mai smiled and asked, "Yono-neechan, did you find the bear?"

The others also looked over curiously, as they all knew that Yang Nai had taken Luo Bai to the mountains to look for bears.

After sitting down next to Yukino, Haruno slyly pulled out her phone and said, "Hehe, we didn't find any bears, there aren't any wild ones around here, but we did find some other small animals! Let me show you!"

Yang Nai opened her phone's photo album and showed everyone the things she had taken along the way.

Wow! A squirrel!

Looking at the little animals on her phone, Komachi exclaimed excitedly.

In the photo, a tiny squirrel lands on Yang Nai's hand and is munching on a peanut.

Besides this, there were also small pheasants and other wild birds, almost all of which were photographed by Yang Nai at very close range.

While showing off the photos, Yang Nai happily said, "Although there were a lot of mosquitoes, I was lucky that I took precautions and didn't get bitten. It's just a pity that I originally wanted to bring that little squirrel home to keep as a pet, but Xiaobai stopped me."

Yukino nodded: "There is indeed no need to take them away. Wild animals should be allowed to live freely in the mountains."

Looking through the photos, Komachi asked curiously, "Yono-neechan, how come the squirrel is sitting so obediently on your hand?"

"Hmph!" Yang Nai said with her hands on her hips, looking smug. "Of course, it's all thanks to my personal charm!"

No sooner had she finished speaking than Yukino retorted, "Sister, don't flatter yourself. Wasn't it just Luo Bai who helped you?"

"Ugh, Yukino is so boring. Couldn't she just keep quiet?"

After sticking her tongue out at Yukino, Haruno turned around and went to make her bed.

Volume 1: Chapter 236 Romance Topics? (1/2)

Compared to the lively atmosphere on the girls' side, the boys' side was relatively quiet.

After returning to the resort and washing up, Luo Bai went back to his room, made his bed, and lay down.

In the arrangement of the beds, Luo Bai was on the far left, with Hikigaya to his right, Totsuka Saika to the right, and then Hayama and the others.

Hikigaya, who was playing on his phone, saw that Luo Bai had stopped moving after lying down. He put down his phone and asked, "Going on a date in the mountains so late at night, aren't you afraid of getting bitten by mosquitoes?"

"Just use mosquito repellent. Do I look like I've been bitten?"

As he spoke, Luo Bai showed his arm, which was completely free of any red spots.

Considering Luo Bai's abilities, Hachiman realized he had been overthinking things.

"You're asking me? Weren't you dragged away by Yui and Komachi too? Where did you go to play?"

"Where can we go for fun?" Hachiman asked, his eyes lifeless. "Let's go watch those elementary school kids' activities. It's really not interesting."

I think it's because of Komachi, that third wheel.

Luo Bai smiled and shook his head, yawning as he said, "It's a bit boring. I should have brought the game console with me."

"Agreed, it is indeed quite boring."

Compared to Luo Bai and Hikigaya, Hayama and Tobe's side was much more lively. They were the type who couldn't stay still and especially loved to chat.

Especially now that it's just guys, the conversations are even more direct and obvious.

That's a girl.

Tobe Sho sat up and looked at Luo Bai, asking, "Luo Bai, that girl named Kasumigaoka who came with you today is actually from Toyonosaki High School in Tokyo! That's a famous high school! How did you two meet?"

Yawning, Luo Bai calmly said, "That's how we met, right? All sorts of things have happened. There's not much to say about my situation. If I'm not mistaken, you seem to like Ebina, right?"

With just a simple sentence, Luo Bai shifted everyone's attention from himself to Hu Buxiang.

"Ugh?!"

Faced with everyone's gaze, Tobe Sho immediately became embarrassed and quickly waved his hands, saying, "No, um, I just..."

Seeing this, everyone knew without asking that Luo Bai was right.

Hayama looked at Tobe Sho in surprise and said, "I really didn't realize that you actually like Ebina."

Totsuka Saika's face was also slightly flushed; he seemed very excited as it was the first time he had participated in a topic about boys.

"Um...ah, could you please not tell anyone?"

Seeing that he could no longer hide it, Tobu Sho awkwardly scratched his head and pleaded with everyone.

Luo Bai nodded: "Don't worry, neither of us are the big mouths, and we have no interest in gossiping everywhere."

Hachiman, however, seemed to have taken a bit of interest in the conversation. He turned to the side, resting his head on his hand, and said, "But I still didn't expect that anyone would like that fujoshi, Ebina."

Hina Ebina is the undisputed number one fujoshi (female fan of male-male romance) at Soubu High School; no one can match her in terms of the degree of her fujoshi devotion.

If any two guys get together and seem to have a good relationship, Ebina Hina can instantly fill a fujoshi doujinshi (a type of Chinese comic book) with them.

Luo Bai heard all of this from Yui Yuigahama, and it was truly terrifying.
