I save a pathological girl with a twisted love story.

Xia Wuzhao didn't look at Chiho, but just glanced around casually; "So? So why did you come here today?"

“Because I’ve never been here before,” Chiho said. “Although I know the scenery here is probably quite ordinary, I’ve decided to come, and I’ll definitely come.”

"I won't give up on it because it's mediocre or doesn't meet my expectations."

She stretched vigorously and said, "I won't give up."

Xia Wuzhao was silent for a while before saying, "Why? This place is clearly not what I expected, so why did you insist on coming here?"

"Because I like doing this. My liking will never change, Natsumura."

Chiho said slowly, "I won't give up halfway through what I've chosen."

She turned around and looked at Xia Wuzhao.

The black skirt swayed slightly in the sea breeze, and the thick black stockings were already slightly damp.

It takes on a different color from other places, and even becomes slightly transparent.

The girl looked at Xia Wuzhao and said, "In fact, I'm hoping that not many people like this place. That way, it will belong to me alone."

Xia Wuzhao didn't look at the girl, but turned her head to look elsewhere: "What's the use of telling me all this? I'll only come here once in a lifetime."

"Ugh, coward."

Chiho wrinkled her nose in dissatisfaction. Standing at the edge of the ruins, she said to Natsugiri, "Come on, jump in, you coward."

"I haven't tried diving here before."

She pointed to the rippling sea and smiled at Xia Wuzhao.

Shall we jump?

Xia Wuzhao looked at the girl, but the girl only smiled sweetly at him.

The girl said solemnly, "Whether you like it or not, I will jump."

As she said this, the girl took a step back.

Now she stood on one foot on the edge, her body swaying precariously. Like a penguin, she raised her hands, wobbling as she maintained her balance.

"Hey! Want to come along?!"

She shouted loudly.

Xia Wuzhao simply looked at her without making any move.

It seems as if they really are that heartless.

"Really? I knew it."

The girl smiled easily, and then she leaned backward instantly.

It was as if he had fallen from the rooftop like a bird with broken wings.

Almost instantly, just like that time during summer vacation.

Xia Wuzhao instinctively ran forward and jumped down without hesitation.

Without a thought in his mind, he jumped down.

And look down.

Chiho had already fallen into the water, and she was floating on the sea, looking up at Natsume with a grin.

She watched Xia Wuzhao fall into the water and said, "You really did come down after all."

Xia Wuzhao said, "If you go to the beach and don't go into the water, isn't it almost the same as not coming at all?"

"Chichi."

Chiho didn't bother to argue: "Mmm, you're right."

She smiled happily, a smile that was both meaningful and pure.

The girl just smiled, her crimson hair, soaked with water, clung to her fair neck and shoulders.

Xia Wuzhao glanced at that radiant smile and then turned her face away.

"Let's get on the boat quickly, or we might catch a cold."

"Hmm~~~"

The girl gave a soft hum, her heart filled with joy.

The maid steered the small boat to their side, and Chiho said to Natsugiri, "Please help me, I can't get up there."

Xia Wuzhao silently swam to Qianhui's side, pushed her waist and legs, and helped her onto the small boat. Only then did Xia Wuzhao climb onto the boat herself.

The maid gave Chiho and Natsugiri a blanket each, telling them to wipe their bodies first.

Then they quickly took the two people to the shore.

The girl sat on the bed, completely covered by a blanket.

"I'm so happy today, Natsugiri."

"Because Natsugiri jumped down just like before, just like during summer vacation."

"He really does like me."

"I'm very happy."

The girl looked at Xia Wu: "Do you know why I'm so happy?"

"It's because we came to see the sea today."

Xia Wuzhao answered casually.

“You’re wrong, Xia Wu.” The girl retorted with a smile.

"Why is that?"

Xia Wuzhao asked.

Chiho rested her chin on her hand and blinked, "I won't tell you. If you guess it yourself, I can give you a reward."

She tempted Xia Wuzhao: "It's my most precious gift."

But Xia Wuzhao said, "Whatever happens, it's fine."

Chiho's expression fell silent for a moment. She smoothed her wet hair and said, "That's what I hate most about you, Natsugiri."

"It would have been enough to just guess."

"coward."

She said this about Xia Wuzhao.

But Xia Wuzhao could only watch the ruins receding into the distance, and the vast ocean.

After arriving on the shore.

The girl said, "Would you like to change clothes with me?"

Xia Wuzhao leaned against the car and said, "Go change your clothes first. I'll wait here."

"coward."

The girl said with dissatisfaction.

Chapter 270 Wanting to rely on one's own efforts

Xia Wuzhao stood outside the car, looking at the ocean in the distance.

In fact, he understood what Chiho meant just now.

But he remained unmoved and ultimately did nothing.

He simply gazed silently at the distant ocean and the ruins within it, which resembled rusted bones.

The maid stood to the side, waiting quietly like a statue.

Along with the sounds of the tide and waves, there was also the sound of a girl getting dressed inside the car. After a while, the locked car door finally opened again.

The girl was wearing a school uniform, but she also had many expensive and beautiful everyday clothes.

However, she still chose to bring this school uniform and wear it.

With a whoosh, she jumped out of the car.

His clothes were completely dry, radiating a sunny future. It was as if he had never jumped into the sea at all.

Only the strands of hair were wet, glistening with a moist sheen.

The damp clothes were all put in a bag and placed in the trunk.

The clothes prepared for Xia Wuzhao were a set of ordinary sportswear. Xia Wuzhao carried the bag into the car, changed her clothes, and then came out.

He looked at Chiho and asked, "Aren't you leaving? Haven't you already seen the ruins?"

“The purpose of traveling isn’t the destination, Natsugiri,” Chiho said with a smile. “It’s simply that as long as we’re happy enough, that can be called traveling.”

"so what?"

Natsugiri asked Chiho.

"So, we're not going back now."

The girl shook her finger at Xia Wuzhao and said, "We're going to other places today."

Where to go?

"Anywhere is fine," the girl said with a smile. "The old town has lots of fun places to visit."

Chiho forcibly prevented Natsugiri from leaving, and after pulling him into the car, she instructed the maid to wander around the Hira district.

She was indeed extremely familiar with this place, and knew the locations of all the shops very well.

And indeed, the purpose was to go shopping.

No matter where you go, no matter what you do.

It seems that just wandering around like this is enough.

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

Asahi Aoi is very busy today. The closer the cultural festival gets, the more people like to come and find her.

She had to go to this department first, and then to that department.

She kept moving around the teaching building, and by noon she was panting heavily.

When Chiharu Tokisaka came here, she also brought a bottle of water for Aoi Asahi.

She seemed somewhat surprised: "Are you this tired today?"

"Ah."

Aoi Asahi responded wearily and thanked Chiharu Tokisaka again.

Chiharu Tokisaka waved her hand: "It's okay, it's okay."

She sat down in the empty chair next to her: "Didn't Xia Wu come today? Is something wrong?"

"Natsugiri and Chiho went to the beach," Aoi Asahi said calmly. "Tokisaka-senpai, is there anything else?"

"Just call me Chiharu."

Chiharu Tokisaka said angrily, "Aren't we friends?"

However, Aoi Asahi had no intention of changing her mind, leaving Chiharu Tokisaka helplessly covering her head.

"I just can't do anything with you," Chiharu Tokisaka said. "I really don't know whether to call it stubbornness or confidence."

The girl said, "I don't have anything to do today, but no one has come to ask me for help. So, I thought I'd see if you need any assistance."

She smiled brightly; "I can help, for free!"

"Thank you very much, Tokisaka-senpai. I've been so busy lately that I haven't been able to take care of everything."

Aoi Asahi didn't hesitate. Since Chiharu Tokisaka was willing to help, then she would help.

"Incidentally, she can also get familiar with the work of a library. If she really becomes a librarian in the future, she won't be in the same predicament as me."

That's what the girl was thinking.

"But why would I be willing to give up my job to her?"
