I save a pathological girl with a twisted love story.

Shisaka's mother sighed helplessly, "Mom is really afraid that you'll pick up those bad habits of extravagance and comparison. I don't care if you take it out to eat or wear. I'm not afraid of you spending money! I'm just afraid that you'll become materialistic and extravagant, and that you won't like to study anymore. Sigh, you have to work hard."

Chiharu Tokisaka listened silently.

After a long and rambling explanation, Tokisaka's mother finally relented, saying, "I'll transfer more money to your card."

Chiharu Tokisaka finally breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

She quickly revealed her true purpose: "Mom, the three-way meeting is about to begin. When can you come? Is next Sunday okay?"

“Okay,” said Mrs. Tokisaka. “I’ll come see you next Sunday. I’d like to see if the people at that convenience store dare not pay their wages.”

"Mom will show you how to ask for wages."

She spoke with extreme pride.

Chiharu Tokisaka's mood, which had just calmed down, immediately became volatile again.

But when he opened his mouth, nothing came out.

The phone was disconnected with a beep.

"Ah—it's finally over."

I rolled over and looked at the ceiling.

With her arm resting on her forehead, she looked somewhat tired.

Chapter 319 The dampness and darkness that must never be shown

The next day, Chiharu Tokisaka composed herself and went to school.

Despite the frustration and pain she felt yesterday, she is still full of energy today.

"I finally got the money, so I must work hard to make it worthwhile."

—I was so sad yesterday, but I just slept for a few hours.

Instead, she felt sorry for her mother and her family.

I felt they were in a difficult position, and I felt I shouldn't put them in such a difficult position.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but laugh at herself again.

"I was clearly sad and resentful inside. But in the blink of an eye, the scar seemed to have disappeared, gone completely."

"In fact, I've started to love you all again."

"But even in this matter, I cannot be pure."

"I can neither purely hate you nor purely love you."

Chiharu Tokisaka sighed, her steps becoming even heavier.

He patted his face; "I absolutely can't show this in front of other people."

"Perhaps this is just my boring and feeble self-esteem?"

Chiharu Tokisaka pursed her lips into a pale pink tinged with white and glanced at the sky.

The November sky was overcast and cold.

This is especially true as we approach the end of the month.

Everyone was wearing warm clothes.

Chiharu Tokisaka took the train to the vicinity of the school. Because it was rush hour, the environment inside the train was stuffy and humid.

It makes you feel like you can hardly breathe.

After getting off the bus, the cool air that hit me was invigorating and made it much easier to breathe.

Feeling light and airy all over, the chilly weather actually made me quite happy.

We walked forward along the slope.

"Good morning, Tokisaka~"

"Well, good morning."

Chiharu Tokisaka smiled and greeted the others, just as she always did.

As she walked up the damp slope, she saw a very familiar figure among the fallen leaves.

—It is Xia Wuzhao.

There was another girl with Xia Wuzhao, who seemed to know her very well and were very eager to see her.

"I should tell him now that I've successfully gotten the money. I should brag about it to him."

"However, I also felt some hesitation and doubt."

"I clearly said yesterday that I absolutely wouldn't want it."

Chiharu Tokisaka hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and strode forward again.

"Don't be too anxious, don't be too hesitant. This society doesn't need those who hesitate. If you can't fit in, you'll just be abandoned by everyone. So, you must be cheerful and energetic."

Even when it's embarrassing, even when you hesitate.

"But you just need to push yourself, just push yourself so that you have no room for regret."

She walked up quickly and said with a smile, "Hello, good morning."

Asahi Aoi greeted the smiling Asahi Aoi with, "Good morning, Tokisaka-senpai."

Xia Wuzhao said the same words, but her expression didn't change, just like an NPC who says the same lines every day.

"The weather is really nice today."

Chiharu Tokisaka started a conversation: "The air is so refreshing, it really clears your head."

"Don't you feel too cold?"

Aoi asked, "Don't you find it inconvenient to move around in those heavy clothes every day?"

"A-Kui, do you hate this kind of weather?"

"I can't say whether I hate it or like it." Aoi touched her hair; "I just feel that it's a little inconvenient to move around."

“I think you should really like autumn, Aoi,” Chiharu Tokisaka said, making this judgment.

"why?"

“Because you’re a librarian,” she said in an exaggerated tone. “In the summer, even if many people don’t read, they’ll still go to the library to cool off. So, autumn is probably better.”

“It’ll be warmer in the library in autumn, right?” Aoi said. “It’s no different from summer.”

"Although the library is relatively warm in autumn, the air is very stuffy, making it feel like you can't breathe. So, no one stays in the library for very long."

Chiharu Tokisaka spoke with great conviction, then asked Natsugiri Kai, "What do you think, Natsugiri Kai?"

“I often see idiots who won’t leave even when they’re in so much pain they can’t breathe,” Xia Wuzhao said calmly. “Haven’t you seen them?”

“How could anyone be so stupid?” Chiharu Tokisaka waved her hand and laughed. “If you’re feeling unwell, you should instinctively leave. Even a wild beast wouldn’t be this stupid.”

“But the difference between humans and beasts is the difference in emotions and intelligence,” Xia Wuzhao said. “Intelligent people will always use all sorts of reasons to convince themselves to continue to endure, while mindless beasts will do their best to resist and struggle.”

Chiharu Tokisaka covered her mouth and laughed; "How could that be?"

Xia Wuzhao glanced at her, offering neither comment nor response.

Finally, I entered the school, and it looked like there were a lot of people there.

As she walked toward the shoe cabinet, Chiharu Tokisaka casually remarked, "Yesterday, my mom finally gave me my allowance. It really startled me; I thought it was like those movies on TV where they suddenly win a million dollars or something."

"But, unfortunately, that kind of thing can never happen."

Chiharu Tokisaka helplessly spread her hands and sighed.

Asahi Aoi was quite happy for Tokisaka Chiharu; "With living expenses, you won't have to work anymore. That way, it'll be easier for you, Tokisaka-senpai."

"It's more likely that things will definitely become easier."

Chiharu Tokisaka sighed slightly.

She now treats suffering as a kind of medal.

He took other people's pity and comfort as a reward.

She subconsciously complained, "Now that I'm free from work pressure, I have to devote all my energy to studying."

Asahi listened and said, "That must be very hard."

"Oh, it's not too strenuous."

Chiharu Tokisaka smiled and said, "After all, studying is our duty."

She smiled, looking very serious.

Aoi Asahi said nothing more about it.

Xia Wuzhao retorted, "What's there to be happy about?"

Chiharu Tokisaka pursed her lips and gave an awkward smile. "Shouldn't I be happy to receive my allowance?"

“You rarely take living expenses, do you?” Xia Wuzhao said calmly. “You go to university to find a good job and then support your parents.”

"This should be considered support and investment. It would be strange if your parents didn't even give you the most basic living expenses."

Chapter 320 The Brilliance Emerging in the Autumn Sun

"Ha, you're right."

Chiharu Tokisaka smiled nonchalantly; at least, her face didn't show any sign of concern.

She stroked her hair as she looked at Xia Wuzhao.

His tone carried a hint of complaint: "However, although I don't really care."

"Yeah, I really don't care. But you're taking it too seriously."

She tilted her head and said, "Boys who are too serious won't be liked by girls."

It seemed as if they were making a joke.

Asahi Aoi silently took Natsugiri Kai's arm and pursed her lips.

"Wow, what a beautiful day!"

Chiharu Tokisaka chuckled and stretched lazily. "You always seem to be thinking about the meaning behind things, junior."

“I always feel that this will only add a lot of trouble for me, because much of the time is inherently pale and doesn’t have much meaning.”

In the end, it's just asking for trouble.

She looked at the high school students coming and going and felt that she was no different from them.

That's all for now, goodbye.

Chiharu Tokisaka waved and walked towards the stairs.

Xia Wuzhao simply watched coldly from the sidelines.

"It seems we have failed, Lord Natsugiri."

Xiao Ai thought to herself, "Tokisaka Chiharu doesn't seem to be feeling hopeless. On the contrary, she seems to have become more cheerful."

"Cheerful?"

Xia Wuzhao countered, "Do you really think she's become more cheerful?"

"Isn't that right?" Xiao Ai asked, "Tokisaka Chiharu smiled more today, and seemed more relaxed. Didn't you notice, Natsugiri-sama?"

"Besides, she also got her living expenses. Now she can finally relax without any worries."

At this time of day, the shoe counter area is crowded with students. Most of them are with friends, chatting about trivial but quite interesting topics.

Every now and then, a loud burst of laughter would erupt.

Just by looking at them, you can feel something called "youth".

Xia Wuzhao turned her head away as if she had been stung, and did not look at them again.

I don't think so.

"Why?" Xiao Ai asked, puzzled.

"Most parents manage love and hate very well. They make it impossible for you to love them, but even more impossible for you to hate them. Every time you're about to despair with hatred, they'll say some kind and comforting words to you."
