I save a pathological girl with a twisted love story.

"Clang clang~~"

Asahi Aoi took out the library key: "The teacher didn't confiscate my library key, so I can go anytime I want. Besides, the new librarian will probably be in the library a lot."

She smiled and said, "So, there's nothing to worry about."

"Do you know who the new librarian is?" Xia Wuzhao asked in return.

"I don't know." Aoi shook her head. "What about you, Natsugiri?"

"I don't know either."

"Really? But I feel like you're really concerned, Xia Wu."

"Really?" Natsugiri looked at Asahi Aoi with a puzzled expression. "Would I care that much?"

Asahi looked closely at Natsugiri Kai's appearance and smiled again.

"Then let's just pretend we don't know."

The girl spoke casually, looking at the shaking window and the fine snowflakes drifting outside: "The weather is really cold today."

"After all, it's almost December."

Xia Wuzhao replied, "It's normal for the weather to be cold."

These words left Aoi somewhat helpless. She smoothed her hair slightly and prepared to continue reading her book.

With a loud bang, the door was kicked open.

Kirishima Chiho walked in, her face beaming with smiles.

"Hello, hello, so this is the place you've come from."

She was carrying bags in her hands and was sweating from exhaustion.

After laboriously placing the bag on the table, Chiho looked at Natsumi.

She asked mischievously, "Xia Wu, do you know what day it is today?"

"do not know."

"Do you know what day it is today?"

"I don't know." Xia Wuzhao shook her head.

"Today is Aoi's birthday. November 20th!"

"I brought a gift for Aoi!" Chiho said proudly, hands on her hips. "Guess what it is?"

But before the two could even guess, Chiho herself solved the mystery.

"Ta-da! It's a cake!"

Chiho pulled a round cake out of the bag. It was covered with cream and elaborate piping, and had a small sign stuck on it.

Happy birthday, Aoi Asahi.

"Happy birthday, Aoi!"

Chiho forcefully pulled the somewhat bewildered Asahi Aoi along, and said to her with a grin, "I've prepared a present for you."

"Thank you," Aoi Asahi replied, somewhat at a loss for words.

"Oh, oh, aren't we friends?" Kirishima Chiho winked at Asahi Aoi, looking sly.

"Yes, we are friends." Aoi smiled gently.

"Great!"

Kirishima Chiho almost jumped up; her laughter was almost comical.

However, no one knows how much of her appearance is real and how much is fake.

“Actually, you don’t have to do this.” Aoi looked at the cake. “It’s never good to do these things at school.”

"I can't help it either," Chiho said helplessly, complaining. "If I could, I would like to surprise you at your house. But I don't know where your house is, so I gave up."

"Now, I can only buy a small cake to wish you a happy birthday."

Aoi smiled gently; "Even so, I'm happy enough. I don't need to do anything else."

"Hmph, that won't do." Kirishima Chiho put her hands on her hips and tilted her chin up. "I've prepared a gift."

As she spoke, she took her gift out of the bag.

— It's a red hairband, a practical and inexpensive gift.

"How about it? Want to give it a try?"

Chiho egged them on, urging Asahi Aoi to use it quickly.

Left with no other choice, Aoi used a red hairband to simply style her long hair into a low ponytail.

"It's so pretty."

Chiho praised him, while Asahi Aoi looked quite helpless.

The two of them were arguing and chattering away.

Finally, the topic turned to Xia Wuzhao.

"Xia Wu, where's your gift?"

Chiho urged Natsugiri Kai, "If you can't come up with a gift, you can't eat the cake."

After glancing at the cake, Xia Wuzhao thought about it carefully.

He then took out a piece of amber from his pocket.

"Consider this a gift."

Xia Wuzhao placed the amber on the table.

"Ah, what is this?" Chiho looked at it carefully and asked deliberately, "You didn't just pull something out of the box and think it was a gift, did you?"

"Yes, that's it."

Xia Wuzhao did not refute: "Because this is all I have right now. So, this is the only gift I can give."

"That's so perfunctory," Chiho complained. "Be careful, Aoi might complain. A gift like that won't do."

"Will not."

Aoi interrupted Chiho, holding the amber in her hand and looking at it.

Inside the amber is a pale yellow petal, which appears clear and soft within the amber, giving it a texture more like a gemstone.

“I really like this gift.” Aoi clutched the amber tightly.

"Hmm." Xia Wuzhao didn't react.

Chiho suddenly asked, "Was this amber bought on purpose?"

Natsugiri Kai looked over, but Chiho was all smiles, deliberately being mischievous.

"No."

Xia Wuzhao denied it readily and decisively.

"Where is it?" Chiho pressed, poking Natsugiri every now and then, looking quite annoyed.

I found it at the shrine.

Xia Wuzhao gave a casual reply.

"Ah, I see."

Chiho suddenly realized: "You found it in the tesujiya, didn't you?"

She said angrily, "Xia Wu, you said you didn't find anything back then, but now you're saying you found it somewhere."

"What a liar."

Xia Wuzhao simply replied, "I only said I found it at the shrine, not at the tesujiya."

"Tch, that must be a lie." Chiho didn't believe it at all.

Xia Wuzhao didn't react much; he acted as if nothing had happened, as if he hadn't heard Qianhui's words.

But how could Chiho let him off so easily?

Her eyes darted around, and she looked at Xia Wuzhao with a mischievous glint in her eyes: "When you found this amber, you didn't think of giving it to me as a gift today, did you?"

"I just forgot."

Xia Wukai said, "I just forgot to take the amber out of my pocket, but isn't this perfect? ​​Now it can also be considered Asahi's birthday present."

"Huh, you make it sound so cheap." Chiho chuckled, but before she could say anything more, Asahi Aoi interrupted her.

"The cake will be past its expiration date if we don't eat it soon." Aoi Asahi opened the cake box.

After a knowing smile, Chiho came over and said, "I want a large portion!"

"We should make a wish before cutting the cake," Xia Wuzhao reminded her.

"Ah."

Aoi nodded; she was actually really looking forward to making a wish.

Even knowing it's fake, there's always a sliver of hope in my heart.

What if, just what if it might be of some help to me?

So she put tiny candles on the cake.

They lit the torches one by one, then closed their eyes and began to make a wish.

"If only... if Xiawu's memories could be restored."

After making a wish, it took a long time before I opened my eyes.

Then blow out all the candles forcefully.

"Guess what kind of wish Aoi will make."

Chiho looked at Natsugiri Kai, her words tinged with sarcasm and teasing.

"Who knows?"

Xia Wuzhao glanced away and looked outside.

Chapter 338 Something That Becomes More Real Through Repeated Repetition

"I know, Lady Natsugiri."

Xiao Ai thought smugly to Xia Wuzhao, "If you want to know, I can tell you, Lord Xia Wuzhao. I know exactly what Aoi wished for."

Xia Wuzhao replied to Xiao Ai in her mind: "How did you know? Is this your new ability?"

"Of course not, Lady Natsugiri. It's quite obvious. Just by looking at it, you can understand what kind of wish Aoi made."

"So that's your guess?" Xia Wuzhao replied. "Since it's a guess, there's no need to say it. Since it's all fake, there's no need to say it."

Xiao Ai wanted to say something more, but Xia Wuzhao stopped her.

This made Xiao Ai a little unhappy.

Chiho, standing next to her, joked, "Are you really unaware, or are you pretending not to know?"

"If I could guess what people are thinking, I wouldn't be here right now; I'd be in the lab."

Xia Wuzhao casually made a lame joke: "Mind reading absolutely does not exist in this world."

"Humph."

Chiho chuckled, "That's so typical of you."

She finally stopped questioning Xia Wuzhao and instead said, "Maybe I can read minds."

"Oh."

Xia Wuzhao replied calmly, "Can you read what other people are thinking?"

"I can only read what Aoi is thinking right now."

Chiho rested her cheek on her palm.

"Would you like to bring a cake for the teacher?"
