"I don't think so."
Chiho blinked and said to Chiharu Tokisaka, "Just now, when I came here, a girl asked me when the Helping Club would be open."
"She said she had been here earlier, but left disappointed when she saw that there was no one in the help department."
She said it with absolute certainty.
This made Chiharu Tokisaka somewhat annoyed: "Really?"
"Of course it's true, how could I lie to you?" Chiho said, a little annoyed. "Tokisaka-senpai, I really saw it."
"It seems that we really can't be lazy."
Chiharu Tokisaka looked annoyed and said apologetically to Kai Natsugiri, "I'll head back now."
She seemed a little anxious, as if going to the helpers' department would guarantee her a request.
After Chiharu Tokisaka left, Kai Natsugiri said, "You were actually lying to her, weren't you?"
"Yes, that's right."
Chiho nodded normally and said, "That's right, I was lying to her. Actually, I didn't meet any so-called person, and no one came to ask Tokisaka-senpai for a request."
Xia Wuzhao said, "So, why lie to her?"
Why not lie to her?
Chiho stroked her hair and asked, "Do you care about Natsugiri that much?"
"I don't care."
Xia Wuzhao answered.
"This is a lie."
The girl twirled a strand of her red hair between her fingers: "If you don't care about her, then why care whether I lied to her or not?"
"I'm just curious about your reasons for doing this."
Xia Wuzhao closed the book, making a snapping sound.
"The reason, huh?"
Chiho looked at Natsugiri Kai and grinned, "Isn't it obvious, Natsugiri?"
"Because, I'd rather the two of us be here than three people here."
"Huh? Don't you understand why?"
Xia Wuzhao simply looked at her and said, "I really don't understand."
The girl smiled and said, "Then I won't tell you."
"I think things are pretty good right now, aren't they?"
Chiho said, "Otherwise, something sad will always happen. And that's always painful, isn't it, Natsugiri?"
She blinked: "I hate painful things. Painful things always make me want to cry."
"I hate this."
The girl said in a teasing tone, "So, please don't make me cry in the future."
Chapter 286 That tangled and unspeakable feeling
She spoke these words in a nonchalant tone, as if she didn't care at all.
There was absolutely no sadness or melancholy on his face.
She chuckled as always, a smile that seemed somewhat enigmatic.
Xia Wuzhao did not go to see her.
"Of course I know why Chiho would say such a thing, and of course I understand why she would say it."
"But I must continue to pretend that I didn't understand."
Natsugiri Kai said, "So, what does this have to do with Tokisaka?"
"Are we going to start from here again?"
Chiho covered her forehead, looking quite speechless.
She blinked, then suddenly stood up again.
Perhaps because she exerted too much force, the hem of her skirt fluttered slightly. Reaching Xia Wuzhao, she pulled up a chair and sat down.
What if I said I was jealous?
"Xia Wu, what would you say?"
She rested her chin on her hand, her crimson pupils gleaming.
"Me? I probably don't understand why you would be jealous."
Xia Wuzhao didn't look at the girl so close to her, but instead looked out the window.
"fraud."
Chiho said this to Natsumi Kai, poking Natsumi Kai's calf with her toe.
"You always say things that are obviously lies."
"I never lie."
"That statement is completely unconvincing, Natsugiri," Chiho said, waving her finger. "What if what you said is also false?"
"Then just pretend it's fake."
Xia Wuzhao answered Chiho without caring at all.
The sky outside was gradually darkening. At noon, the light seemed to be everywhere, as if every corner was filled with that brilliant and intense light.
But now, shadows have reappeared in the corner.
Hearing Xia Wuzhao's answer, the girl smiled with relief.
"What are you looking at?"
"Looking at the sky outside."
Is it good-looking?
"Yes, the sky is an incredibly beautiful blue."
"Heh heh, you've said that so many times already. Xia Wu, you always end up saying that whenever you don't know what to say."
"Really? I feel like this is the first time I've said something like this today."
Xia Wuzhao showed no emotion whatsoever. Qianhui looked at Xia Wuzhao and said, "But I feel like you're running away from something."
What am I running away from?
“Avoid me.”
"But why should I avoid you?"
"If you're not deliberately avoiding me, then why do you keep turning your head to look out the window? Why don't you come and see me?"
"Don't you find it strange that I've been staring at you the whole time?"
"What's so strange about that?" Chiho said gently. "Is it because you like me that you're afraid to look at me? You're really a coward."
"You're being a bit presumptuous."
Xia Wuzhao answered calmly.
"Then why don't you look at me? I look very pretty today."
Chiho emphasized this point, but for Natsugiri Kai, this emphasis was practically meaningless.
Xia Wuzhao remained unmoved, but Chiho stood up and went to the window.
She smiled and said, "So, how do I look today? Cute, right?"
Looking at Chiho in front of her, Natsugiri Kai finally said, "She's very cute."
"What a perfunctory response."
Chiho complained as she returned to her seat.
He lay on the table, looking at Xia Wuzhao with his face turned to the side.
The atmosphere within the club fell silent once again.
However, this silence is different from the previous silences.
The silence of the past was like fire, making people restless and causing a burning pain on their skin.
The silence of the past was like water, almost suffocating.
But now?
Silence is like the wind, blowing across my cheeks and wiping away the damp, hot sweat.
It's like sunshine, making you feel relaxed and warm all over.
Chiho just watched Natsumi Kai like that, without doing anything, just watching.
"Just being by his side gives me a sense of security."
The girl looked at Xia Wuzhao and found it somewhat amusing.
"Compared to her, Natsugiri must also find it tough. Because we're both troublesome girls. Even Asahina, who seems the gentlest, has a stubborn streak and won't back down."
"So, he must find it troublesome too."
As the girl thought this, the sunlight fell on her hair, shimmering with a red glow.
The wafting aroma makes it taste like red wine.
"Perhaps, girls are like wine. They can be intoxicating, but once you sober up, they can cause pain and physical discomfort."
Xia Wuzhao thought to herself.
They didn't leave the school until after school ended.
When I stood at the school gate, Chiho's family car had already arrived.
It stopped not far away.
As Natsugiri Kai was about to leave, Chiho said to him, "See you tomorrow, Natsugiri."
"Okay, see you tomorrow."
Xia Wuzhao answered her in this way.
They acted like complete strangers, not like friends who had known each other for a long time.
The girl, however, did not feel awkward or dissatisfied.
On the contrary, she really likes how things are going on now.
"If, if Xia Wu really treats me like a boyfriend, then I'd probably be the one who feels awkward."
"My past memories and false memories have merged; I am Chiho. I like Natsugiri, but I don't know what to do."
"My experience with amnesia and my recent experiences have allowed me to look back on the past with a more rational perspective."
"My past feelings were based on affection, but was that affection pure? Was it mixed with something else?"
I don't know the answer to that question either.
"But I should like it."
"I feel very safe with Xia Wuzhao by my side. Moreover, even though he hasn't lost his memory, he still treats me like a stranger, which makes me feel relaxed."
"He would never use his emotions to control me or make me do anything for him. He would never take advantage of my family, as if we were complete strangers."
"I can do anything without any worries because Xia Wu is someone who values boundaries. He has never crossed the boundaries in other people's hearts, nor has he made others feel burdened."
"However, he probably would never let anyone else cross the wall of his heart."
"Can I change him? Can I break down the barriers in his heart? I have no idea what the answers to these questions are."
"However, I really enjoy being with him."
"But if he were really taken away by someone else, I would probably feel very distressed, jealous, and dissatisfied."
