My fiancée Yukino

Like Luo Bai, Hachiman Hikigaya was also amazed by Tobe Sho's courage, but he guessed that the other party had not thought of these things at all and was just thinking about confessing his feelings.

Compared to the two boys, the girls were more enthusiastic.

Yui Yuigahama, in particular, looked at Tobe Sho excitedly and said, "So Tobe, you like Hina, and you're even thinking of confessing during the school trip? That's certainly a good opportunity!"

Tobu Sho excitedly added, "Yes, yes, that's exactly what I was thinking. It would be so upsetting to be rejected from such a great opportunity, so I came to ask you for help!"

"I don't want to be rejected..."

Hachiman Hikigaya was embarrassed. Did Tobe Sho think that if he confessed his feelings well, the girl would agree to date him? Had he forgotten the crucial factor of how much the girl liked him?

If there is no romantic attraction between you and a man, no matter how much effort you put into confessing your feelings, or how well you do it, it will ultimately be impossible to succeed.

It's obvious that Hubu Xiang has no awareness of this at all.

Unlike in the original work, Yukino now has a lot of knowledge about love, and she can see through Tobe Sho's problems at a glance.

After taking a sip of tea, Yukino didn't say these things directly to Tobe Sho, but instead looked at Hayama Hayato.

"He's brainless, fine, but are you brainless too?"

"Uh..." Hayama Hayato's expression stiffened. He really didn't expect Yukino to be so sharp-tongued. "Yukinoshita, um, I don't quite understand."

Nodding, Yukino looked at the two bewildered people and said, "You want to confess your feelings, and you're hoping not to be rejected, so you can start dating Ebina-kun after confessing. That's what you're thinking, right, Tobe-kun?"

Hubu Xiang didn't understand either, he just nodded silently.

Then, Yukino looked at Yui Yuigahama beside her: "So, Yui, let me ask you a question. If a guy you don't have any romantic feelings for, and you're just friends, suddenly confesses to you without any warning, and makes a very good show of it, would you say yes?"

"Huh? Of course not." Yui Yuigahama said without even thinking, "I don't like it, why would I agree... Ah!"

Realizing what had happened belatedly, she looked at Tobu Sho across from her.

"I didn't even realize it until Yukino mentioned it. It seems that Hina doesn't actually have any feelings for Tobe. Um, Tobe, how about you reconsider?"

Even if Tobu Sho was stupid, he would understand what the other person meant at this moment.

"So, confessing your feelings is useless?"

Hu Buxiang looked at Luo Bai, who hadn't spoken, for help. "Luo Bai, big brother, give me some advice. It can't really be like this, can it?"

"Otherwise what?" Luo Bai smiled as he looked at Hu Bu Xiang and said, "Hu Bu, you don't actually think that dating is just about confessing your feelings, do you? Confessing your feelings is actually the last step before a couple starts dating. There are many steps before that to build mutual attraction. But unfortunately, you've had feelings for Ebina for quite a while, but you've never thought about asking her out alone or anything. You're just thinking about confessing right away. I really don't think you can succeed. Of course, if you don't believe me, you can stick to your idea and try it. I'll cheer you on."

Although Luo Bai's tone was calm, the weight of his words was like sharp thorns piercing Hu Buxiang's heart.

Volume 1: Chapter 410 The Risks of Confessing (2/2)

Sniffing, Tobe Sho looked pitifully at Hayama Hayato beside him.

"Hayato, is there really no other way?"

Hayato Hayama quickly reassured him, "Don't panic, don't panic, let's think of another way. Besides, it's just a guess right now, isn't it? It's still possible to succeed!"

Yui Yuigahama chimed in, "Yeah, yeah, you can give it a try. What if Hina sees your efforts?"

Luo Bai didn't continue speaking, but exchanged a glance with Mai, who was sitting on his other side.

Mai shrugged, smiled, and squinted her eyes, agreeing with Luo Bai's words.

Mai had met Ebina Hina, a girl in their class, a few times. She was indeed quite cute, but her fujoshi (female fan of male-male romance) tastes were quite frightening.

While Mai wanted to praise Tobe Sho's courage, she had to admit that confessing without enough goodwill made the chances of success extremely slim.

Yui Yuigahama then looked at Yukino: "Yukino, how about we lend a hand? What do you think, Luo-kun?"

One of these two was a minister, and the other was a vice minister. Yui Yuigahama knew that if she wanted to accept the commission, she would definitely need their consent.

Yukino, her arm being shaken by Yuigahama Yui, looked helplessly at Luo Bai.

Luo Bai smiled and said, "Accepting the commission is fine, but I think you should think carefully about the risks of confessing your feelings before doing so, Minister of Revenue."

"risk?"

Hu Buxiang looked at Luo Bai with incomprehension.

Hachiman Hikigaya then said, "Didn't I just say? There's the risk of rejection. Although I'm not very familiar with you two, we're still in the same class, and I've seen some things that happen between you. To be honest, the chances of you two getting together are slim. And if you insist on confessing and then fail, can you bear the consequences? First of all, your relationship will become very delicate and awkward. One of you confessed and the other rejected. I don't think you can handle this atmosphere well without thinking it through. Also, there's the risk that this matter will get out and be known by other people in the class."

As he spoke, Hachiman's expression turned sour, clearly indicating that he was thinking about his embarrassing past.

After Hachiman Hikigaya finished speaking, Luo Bai looked at Hayato Hayama and Sho Tobe and said, "It's just like what Hachiman said. Tobe, you need to think carefully about the risks involved. Don't end up crying and making a scene after your confession fails. Also, Hayama, you should help your friend analyze and discuss this properly. Think it over carefully these next few days. If you're sure you really need our help, then come back."

Hayato Hayama finally understood: it wasn't that Luo Bai and his group wouldn't accept the commissions, but rather that their clients simply hadn't figured it out.

Hayato Hayama nodded: "I understand. Sorry to bother you today. We'll discuss this properly. Let's go."

Tobe Sho quickly thanked him and left with Hayama Hayato.

Less than a minute after the two left the Service Club, the club doors opened again, and this time it was Hiratsuka who came in.

Quiet.

"Have Yeshan and the Ministry of Revenue come here with a request?"

Luo Bai personally poured Hiratsuka Shizuka a cup of tea and said with a smile, "This matter concerns your student's privacy. Are you sure you want to know, Hiratsuka-sensei? We don't usually reveal such private matters."

Upon hearing this, Hiratsuka Shizuka also laughed.

"Oh ho, you think I can't know? Have you forgotten that I'm still the advisor teacher of the Service Club!"

At this moment, Yukino spoke up, "So, advisor, when will our club's activity funds be disbursed?"

"Go away, Yukino, don't mess with me. Do I need to explain how your club was even formed? You haven't had many commissions yet, and you're already thinking about funding? Besides, you're all rich, so let's not talk about that. Just tell me what happened!"

Having no other choice, Luo Bai had to tell Hiratsuka Shizuka about Tobu Sho's situation.

"I see, so you're confessing your feelings!"

Hiratsuka Shizuka nodded in realization. "The trend... confessing without any prior liking is indeed very risky. It was right to let that kid, Tobe, go back and think it over carefully. But what if he still wants to confess then?"

Luo Bai shrugged: "Then let's take the commission. Anyway, we don't guarantee a successful confession. We just help him with some ideas and process design for the confession. He still has to do the confession himself."

"Alright, since you've all figured it out, I won't say any more."

After finishing her tea and taking two packets of cookies, Hiratsuka Shizuka said, "I'm going back now; I still have lesson plans to write."

After Hiratsuka Shizuka left, Luo Bai looked at everyone and said, "Alright, let's wait until the other party has thought it through before we talk about this. Let's do our homework now."

Everyone nodded and began to take out their homework, working on it during the last bit of time allotted for club activities.

The next day, during the afternoon club activities, Tobe Sho came to the Service Club alone.

"I've made up my mind, I'm going to confess!" Tobe Sho bowed to everyone and said, "I know this is very risky, but I can't help it. I have to tell Ebina my feelings! Please help me!"

Luo Bai and Yukino exchanged a glance, then looked at Tobe Sho and said, "Your courage is commendable. So let's accept the request. During the school trip, Yuihama and you two happen to have a good relationship. Miura will most likely take her and Ebina along. So let her create more opportunities for you to spend time together. Make the most of these opportunities, okay?"

"Yes, I understand!"

Then, Luo Bai asked Hu Buxiang to sit down, and everyone brainstormed some strategies for him, such as the allocation of personnel based on the occasions they would be playing.

Hu Buxiang kept nodding as he listened, but Luo Bai had a feeling that this guy was a bit unreliable and would probably back down when the time came.

But no matter what, time passed day by day, and there was only one day left until the school trip on Friday.

After the first class in the afternoon, Luo Bai went to the restroom.

When I came out after washing my hands, I ran into Hina Ebina at the entrance of the restroom.

"Luo Bai, what a coincidence!"

Luo Bai glanced at the other person and said, "You clearly came out with me and have been waiting here the whole time, so don't say things like that."

"Oh dear, we've been spotted!"

Hina Ebina tapped her head and said apologetically, "Sorry, but there's something I want to tell you."

"The Ministry of Revenue? I bet you figured it out."

"Luo Bai is indeed amazing." Hina Ebina said with a smile, "This matter is quite difficult to handle, and I don't know how to ask you for help, but I still don't want the current atmosphere to change."

She may look like a fujoshi (a female fan of BL), but Hina Ebina has a very keen eye for detail.

Volume 1: Chapter 411 The School Trip Begins (1/2)

“You shouldn’t have told us this; you should have told the Ministry of Revenue.”

Seeing that there were still two minutes left before class started, Luo Bai strode towards the classroom.

"The other party is commendable for their courage and for being prepared to face the risk of failure. I think you should also make your thoughts clear. Many things go wrong because they are not explained clearly. Perhaps things won't turn out the way you imagine? After all, your group, including the Ministry of Revenue, has known each other for over a year, hasn't it? There's no need to be so afraid."

Watching Luo Bai leave, Ebina Hina began to seriously consider what she should do next.

Perhaps Luo Bai is right. There's no use in just backing down. It's better to tell the truth.

After the afternoon classes ended, Hiratsuka Shizuka tidied up her lesson plan and looked at the class, saying, "Tomorrow is the school trip. Go home and get some rest today, pack your luggage, and be at school by 8:00 sharp. If you're late, you'll have to take the bus to Kyoto yourself! Okay, school dismissed!"

After Hiratsuka Shizuka left the classroom, everyone packed their bags and had a lively discussion.

Luo Bai also picked up his schoolbag and texted Yukino Mai on his phone as everyone gathered at the school gate.

He had just sent the message when he saw Sima Miori and Kirishima Touka walking over together.

Luo Bai nodded: "Then let's go. Hachiman, are you coming with us or what?"

Hikigaya didn't stand up, but pointed towards Yui Yuigahama's side.

At this moment, Yui Yuigahama was still discussing luggage with Yumiko Miura and Hina Ebina. It looked like it would take a few more minutes, so Hikigaya could only wait for her.

Luo Bai smiled and said, "Okay, then we'll be going now. See you tomorrow morning."

"Okay, see you tomorrow morning."

They met up with Yukino and Mai at the school gate, and then headed back together.

On the way to the station, Luo Bai looked at Kirishima Touka and said, "Touka, is this your first time going to Kyoto?"

Touka Kirishima nodded expectantly: "Yes, it's my first time going. In the past, because of my ghoul identity, I couldn't go out and have fun much. Now I finally have the chance. It's just a pity that everyone in the shop can't come along."

Sima Weizhi chuckled and said, "Of course that's not a problem. Once you've made some money from your shop and gained the organization's trust, you'll definitely have holidays. Then you can take leave and go on a trip together, right?"

Touka Kirishima is also very excited about this: "That's right, life will only get better and better from now on."

Upon arriving at the station, Kirishima Touka boarded a bus on a different route than Luo Bai and the others to return to the shop, while Luo Bai and the others took a regular bus back to the villa area.

Aside from arriving in her family's car on her first day after transferring schools, Miss Sima Weizhi spent the rest of her days traveling with everyone else, just like any other ordinary person, by bus.

Sitting in her chair, Sima Weizhi counted on her fingers and said, "Besides us, Ren and Xiao Ai will also be going tomorrow. Will they be staying at the same hotel as us?"

Luo Bai shook his head and said, "All the students from Soubu High School will be staying at one hotel, and there are no rooms available. So Shinobu and Ai will stay at another hotel nearby after they arrive. Tomorrow morning, Shinobu and the others will take the Shinkansen to Kyoto a day earlier than us, while Yono will be traveling with Ai from Tokyo."

As for Utaha, she couldn't come along this time. Toyosaki's school trip is to Kanagawa, the place where Natsume and Tina went to visit in elementary school these past few days. Of course, high school...

The places that undergraduates and primary school students go to are also quite different.

Toyonosaki's school trip is next Tuesday, and Utaha has novel and manga projects to work on these next few days, so she won't be able to come.

Upon hearing that quite a few people had followed, Sima Weizhi smiled happily.

Although I know quite a few people in the class, there are only a few I'm really close to. Kirishima Touka and Rakuhaku are the only ones I'm close to. As for Yuigahama Yui and Hikigaya Hachiman, they're just ordinary friends.

With Shinobu and the others coming, things can get even more fun and lively.

When they got home, Xia Shi and Tina had already finished their three-day trip and were happily back home, sorting out the souvenirs they had bought for everyone.

However, kids tend to buy mostly decorations and snacks, which are things that everyone can use.

Upon seeing Luo Bai and the others return, Xia Shi and Tina immediately distributed the things they had bought to everyone and then showed them the photos and videos they had taken in Kanagawa over the past few days.

Patting the two little ones on the head, Luo Bai said with a smile, "Looks like you had a lot of fun. But tomorrow your older brother and sister are going on a school trip too. You two stay at home and listen to Mai-neechan, okay?"

Xia Shi and Tina nodded in unison: "We understand!"

.......

Friday morning.

After getting up on time and having breakfast, Luo Bai and the others each carried a small, lightweight bag and went out.

Other clothing and other luggage were naturally placed in the bracelet, so there was no need to take out a separate bag.

Shinobu Kocho and her sisters went ahead of them. After arriving in Kyoto, they were to check into their pre-booked hotel and then travel with Luo Bai and the others.

When Luo Bai and his group arrived at the school, most of the students had already arrived long beforehand.

The school trip is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in high school, and almost no one wants to miss it. So, no matter how late I went to bed last night, I set an alarm very early in the morning to force myself to get up on time.
