Xia Wuzhao did not go to see Kirishima Chiho, but silently recalled the past in her heart.

Even he felt a slight tremor in his heart at this moment.

Perhaps it was pride, or perhaps it was satisfaction.

But it's just like the tiny ripples caused by a drop of water falling onto the surface of the water.

Asahi Aoi wanted Natsugiri Kai to apologize to her, because, after all, her love could not be treated like a toy.

"She deliberately invited me to go for a walk after school, to eat crepes, and to do things like a couple."

"I'm happy, but if Xia Wu did it on purpose, then I'm in pain and suffering."

"Because this love is so fake. I'd rather Xia Wu didn't do such a thing."

"Because this proves that Xia Wu is only using this love as a tool."

"This proves that he didn't take it seriously."

"Xia Wu, how dare you belittle my love?"

Asahi Aoi thought to herself, but Natsugiri Kai remained unmoved.

The atmosphere remained silent.

The first to be unable to bear the atmosphere was Kirishima Chiho, who was practically about to collapse onto the table.

"I'm so bored."

She complained like this, but no one paid any attention to Kirishima Chiho.

The girl repeated, "It's so boring, it's really so boring."

Such a sound stood out in the Literature Club, like a stone shattering a block of ice. Cracks then spread in all directions.

Asahi said, "Wait a little longer, class will start soon."

Xia Wuzhao said, "If you're bored, how about reading a book?"

"How heartless."

Shaking her head, Kirishima Chiho sighed and said, "Boys should be more proactive when it comes to girls."

Although both Aoi Asahi and Kai Natsugiri responded, Chiho Kirishima only looked at Kai Natsugiri.

"why?"

Natsuki Kai asked Kirishima Chiho in return.

"Because this can win a girl's heart."

Kirishima Chiho said matter-of-factly, "That's how boys should think, right?"

"All the boys?"

Xia Wukai looked up at Kirishima Chiho: "You mean, all the boys?"

“That’s right, I mean all the boys.” Kirishima Chiho showed no panic whatsoever, but rather a beaming smile. She remained completely calm: “All boys would probably do that.”

"Oh, but those guys with girlfriends are an exception."

She added this sentence with an expression that showed complete confidence.

"So why bother trying to please girls?"

Looking at the mischievous Chiho Kirishima, Xia Wuzhao asked in a calm tone.

"Because I want to be in a relationship."

Kirishima Chiho's reasoning was quite sound: "Boys all want to be loved by others. So, most of them want girls to love them. Therefore, trying to please girls is something most boys do unconsciously."

"Because they care a lot about girls and want to maintain their competitiveness compared to other boys."

The girl touched the corner of her mouth with her slender fingers, her crimson eyes filled with a meaningful look: "Especially around pretty girls like us."

Instead of looking at Kirishima Chiho, Xia Wuzhao asked her own question.

"If faced with a problem with zero chance of success, what would you choose to do? Give up? Or try your best?"

"Hehe, Xia Wu. As long as the time frame is long enough, there won't be a zero probability problem, you know." The girl chuckled to herself.

Xia Wuzhao ignored the girl's sophistry and simply said, "I will choose to give up, to give up cleanly and decisively. This way, I can avoid many detours and save a lot of time."

"That's really pessimistic."

The girl lay on the table and said, "How will you know if you don't try?"

He deliberately used a seductive tone, saying, "Maybe I'll be captured by you."

The girl's face revealed a charming expression, as if she were confessing her love.

Even though I understand that Kirishima Chiho is doing this to help me, I still feel something is off.

"I feel a little unwell."

"Perhaps, this is the difference between having regained one's memories and not having them."

Asahi Aoi thought to herself, watching to see how Natsugiri Kai would answer.

Xia Wuzhao said, "So what does this have to do with me?"

Kirishima Chiho slammed her hand on the table in dissatisfaction: "Hey, play along with me, Natsugiri-san. I'm the club president, you know! You're making me feel so uncharming."

"Oh, Minister."

Xia Wuzhao gave that dismissive reply.

Kirishima Chiho looked quite annoyed. She glanced at Asahi Aoi, who couldn't help but smile, and said, "I'm so annoyed, Aoi. And you're so gloating. Aren't we good friends?"

Aoi, without changing her expression, said, "That's right, we are indeed good friends, but I'm not gloating."

"Then what's that on your face?!"

Kirishima Chiho pointed at the smile on Asahi Aoi's face with dissatisfaction.

"It's just a normal smile, don't worry about it."

Asahi calmly explained, "How could I possibly be gloating?"

Kirishima Chiho looked like she didn't believe it, but she pretended to.

She and Aoi played around for a while, and Kirishima Chiho suffered a lot of losses.

She looked unhappy and said, "Next summer vacation, I won't invite you to the hot springs."

The girl gave a "threatening" look: "I was the one at the temple fair, and I even bought you candied apples."

Kirishima Chiho's face was filled with the feeling that "you have betrayed our friendship," and she was somewhat sad.

"Did I do that? No, I absolutely did not do that."

"So, are these memories that appeared in Chiho's head after she lost her memory?"

"When I hadn't regained my memories, all my memories related to Natsugiri were filled with false ones. So, did Chiho experience the same thing?"

"We absolutely cannot let her notice anything amiss, we absolutely cannot let her doubt her own memories."

Asahi Aoi said nonchalantly, "If there's a festival like this here next time, I'll buy you candied apples too."

"That won't work."

Chiho shook her finger: "The candied apples from the hot springs are very special. Candied apples from other places don't taste as good as those from the hot springs."

But then she looked at Aoi with dissatisfaction: "I remember when you ate it, you also said it was delicious and very special."

When questioned, Aoi could only helplessly say, "Then I'll definitely buy it for you next summer vacation."

"Well, we made a promise, okay?"

Kirishima Chiho smiled and reached out her hand to make a pinky promise with Asahi Aoi.

This is so childish, it's not something Kirishima Chiho would do.

"No one is allowed to lie, after all, we're friends."

Chiho Kirishima's voice became somewhat low.

Looking at Kirishima Chiho with a puzzled expression, Asahi Aoi said, "Yes, no one is allowed to deceive anyone."

After the two girls made their pinky promise, the school bell rang.

"Okay, you can go to class now."

Kirishima Chiho seemed somewhat happy; she stood up and shooed the two of them away.

Because the door needed to be locked, she was the last to leave. Natsugiri Kai and Asahi Aoi stood by the door waiting for Kirishima Chiho.

The girl inserted the key into the lock and silently turned it.

"Aoi lied to me. I clearly remember that I didn't buy her any candied apples at the festival. Besides, candied apples aren't sold at festivals near hot spring inns."

"I checked it several times, but Aoi always confirmed it. This proves that my memory is wrong, and Aoi knows that my memory is wrong."

"But she didn't want me to notice, so she chose to cater to me."

"So, something must have happened during that festival. That's why I fainted."

"Aoi knows this point: I will lose my memory."

"That's why her expression was so strange at the time, and she asked some odd questions."

"But how did she know I would lose my memory at that point?"

"And is this related to Xia Wuzhao?"

"When I woke up, he was the only one beside me, so there must be a connection."

"Damn it, the driver didn't go to the countryside at all while we were at the festival, and the maid was at the hotel, so she had no idea what was going on at the festival. I had no way of getting any information from anyone else."

"I can only get information from Aoi."

"So, Aoi, what are you hiding?"

Kirishima Chiho pondered deeply in her heart, but maintained an impeccable smile on her face.

She continued to tease Aoi as usual, as if she truly regarded Aoi as a friend she would never doubt.

It's as if they really are close friends.

Girls from other classes couldn't help but admire this scene.

"That's wonderful! I'm so envious!"

As she said this, the other girls all sighed.

Chapter 224 The So-Called Adulthood

In the afternoon, neither Asahi Aoi nor Natsugiri Kai said a word.

Everyone was busy with their own things, and Kirishima Chiho seemed quite well-behaved.

I simply listened to the lecture quietly all afternoon.

When school was over, she told Asahi Aoi and Natsugiri Kai that there were no club activities that day.

So you can do whatever you want.

"Even dating is no problem."

She gave Aoi a mischievous look, grinned, and ran off lightly.

"What do you mean by a date? My relationship with Xia Wu hasn't even been reconciled yet."

As she thought this, she looked at Xia Wuzhao.

Xia Wuzhao packed her things to leave, just like the other students.

"Why, why are you so indifferent?"

"Didn't you notice anything at all?"

"That can't be right. You're so smart, you should be able to figure it out."

The girl fidgeted with her fingers as she sat in her seat, packing her things.

But why were they moving so slowly? They had to adjust the position of the books after putting them in the bag. After slowly stuffing all the books in, they couldn't help but click their tongues in amazement.

He took the books out one by one, changed his position, and slowly put them back in.
