I save a pathological girl with a twisted love story.

Turning to look at her, I asked, "What's going on with your family?"

“Ah—” Chiho hesitated for a moment, then smiled with a troubled expression: “It’s hard to say.”

So Xia Wuzhao figured she had lost the desire to understand and closed her eyes again.

"Are you interested in my home?"

Chiho grinned mischievously as she poked Natsugiri.

But Xia Wuzhao ignored her, causing Qianhui's smile to slowly fade.

She sighed softly, then slowly leaned against Xia Wuzhao: "The way you are makes me feel very unsafe, Xia Wu."

He leaned against Xia Wuzhao and then spaced out for a while.

“A lot has really happened at home. I’m just an ordinary student,” Chiho complained. “But being exposed to so many things makes me feel a bit disconnected.”

She couldn't help but laugh: "Saying it like that makes me seem so unlike a student."

Xia Wuzhao opened her eyes and looked at Chiho.

He didn't say anything, he just silently watched her.

After staring at each other for a while, Chiho turned her head away and said, "Don't look at me like that, it's embarrassing."

"so what?"

"It's just some troubles," Chiho said softly. "Troubles at home, and troubles with Grandma. There are always all sorts of things, it's all a mess."

"Although my grandmother has always been in good health, she fainted once before. The doctor said it might be a heart problem."

"I might go back to my hometown during the May Day holiday."

As she spoke, her expression grew increasingly worried: "I feel a little scared."

Xia Wuzhao glanced at her: "What's there to be afraid of?"

Chiho smiled and looked out the window: "There's really nothing to be afraid of, but saying that proves you're afraid, doesn't it?"

"Perhaps I'm afraid."

Laughing, she said jokingly, "What? Do you look down on me? Or do you think I'm a coward?"

Do you think I'm the kind of person who likes to boss people around?

Xia Wuzhao said casually, "It's just a matter of you making the decision yourself."

A helpless smile appeared on her face, and she was somewhat speechless.

All I could do was point to the cherry blossom tree outside the window and say, "Look, there's a crow hopping around on the treetop. Maybe it's preparing to build its nest."

Xia Wuzhao glanced at it and then stood up.

"Hmm? What are you going to do?" she asked curiously.

Xia Wuzhao simply picked up a pen cap from the table next to her and threw it forcefully at the crow.

The crow was startled and spread its wings to fly into the sky.

"Gaga—Gaga"

He shouted angrily at Xia Wuzhao, but then realized that Xia Wuzhao had closed the window.

The crow angrily flew away into the sky.

Gradually, the figure became smaller and smaller.

"Chichi."

Chiho rested her chin on her hand, leaning back in her chair and laughing uncontrollably: "How wicked you are, Natsugiri."

"If crows build their nests here, it will be troublesome."

Xia Wuzhao answered in this way.

"What a stingy person," Chiho complained, but she laughed heartily.

She stretched vigorously: "Ah, let's go back to the classroom. Otherwise, Aoi will come looking for us soon, and she'll definitely be very angry if she finds you and me here."

"They'll definitely suspect that we have some kind of special relationship."

"A straight body casts a straight shadow." Xia Wuzhao said this, which made Qianhui smile again.

"Xia Wu, you always say some strange things."

As she said this, she opened the door to the Literature Department.

The two then left the club and walked down the corridor toward the classroom.

The two chatted casually, and sometimes Chiho would greet the people around them. She seemed quite open and honest, but her overly intimate relationship with Natsugiri Kai caused those around them to speculate wildly.

Back in the classroom, Chiho deliberately asked, "Last night, you didn't do anything bad with Natsume, did you?"

Aoi blushed instantly and said angrily, "What are you talking about, Chiho?"

"When I went to find Xia Wu just now, I found that he seemed to have fallen asleep. No matter how I called him, I couldn't wake him up. Seeing him like this, one can only suspect that he did something bad last night."

With a wicked grin, Chiho deliberately said things that would make anyone blush.

This provoked Asahi Aoi to pout and complain repeatedly.

This kind of thing finally stopped when class started.

"Lord Natsugiri, it seems that Asakawa Yo glanced here just now," Xiao Ai prompted.

“Isn’t this normal?” Xia Wuzhao listened to the teacher’s lecture. “After all, the classroom is only so big. If you’re just glancing around, you might have the illusion that you’re looking at someone.”

"It's not my imagination," Xiao Ai said unhappily. "Lord Xia Wu doesn't trust me at all."

"I believe you."

Xia Wuzhao spoke perfunctorily, and Xiao Ai sulked and stopped talking.

The afternoon classes were quite ordinary and unremarkable.

The teacher was talking about more material, and many students were frowning, looking like they were deep in thought.

Some people even had expressions on their faces that suggested they were living a life worse than death.

Aoi, who listens attentively in class, stands out remarkably. It's a very obvious sign of a good student.

But the teacher wouldn't ask Asahi Aoi questions, so Asakawa Yo, who was closest to these people, was the one who got the unlucky one.

The teacher would ask her questions from time to time.

Each time, Asakawa Yo would always give the correct answer in a very calm tone.

But sometimes, even Asakawa Yo doesn't know the answer.

After all, while her grades were in the upper range, they weren't at the very top.

It's still a bit behind the sunflower.

But he's the kind of student that teachers really like to ask questions of.

Everyone else seemed to enjoy the situation, at least they weren't the ones asking the questions.

Two classes were held like this.

School was finally over, and everyone else was listlessly packing up their things, preparing to go their separate ways.

Those who need to go to their clubs should go to their clubs, and those who need to go home should go home.

Today, Asahi is preparing to study at the library.

As for Chiho, she had to go back, so Natsugiri Kai had to go to the Literature Club alone to wait for her.

However, Xia Wuzhao didn't care about these things.

He leisurely arrived at the Literature Department, opened the door, found a seat, and began reading.

—It is absolutely quiet here, and absolutely undisturbed.

There wasn't even anyone coming to join the club; it was an absolutely quiet place, a place no one could possibly find.

In the library, Aoi Asahi and Chiharu Tokisaka greeted each other.

Chiharu Tokisaka smiled and asked, "Are you here for study again today?"

"Ah."

Asahi Aoi smiled and said, "The teacher talked about quite a lot today."

“Yes, yes,” Chiharu Tokisaka agreed with Aoi Asahi, speaking from experience: “There is indeed a lot to learn this year. The teachers wish they could cram all the knowledge for the year into your head.”

"It's really scary."

Asahi Aoi just smiled as she listened to Chiharu Tokisaka's complaints.

"And even when I reach my age, things won't be any easier," Chiharu Tokisaka complained. "The pressure will double. I'll have to review all the knowledge I learned before, and there will be a lot of homework to do."

"It's practically burning out."

Chiharu Tokisaka looked helpless, which made Aoi Asahi just smile wryly.

After chatting for a while, Chiharu Tokisaka finally remembered something: "Oh, I'm so sorry to have bothered you for so long, Aoi."

"It's okay." Aoi didn't take it to heart.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Aoi Asahi found a secluded corner to sit down.

Looking at her, Chiharu Tokisaka frowned slightly.

What was I trying to say?

"Ah, it seems you wanted to ask about Xia Wuzhao. I completely forgot about that!"

Chiharu Tokisaka, suddenly realizing what was going on, sighed, "Never mind, I'll ask her later. It's not good to bother Aoi now."

Xia Wuzhao was still killing time in the Literature Club when Ai, who had finally calmed down, gave him a hint.

"Lord Natsugiri, there's someone outside the Literature Club."

"Who?"

"It's Asakawa Yo!" Xiao Ai muttered. "I don't know why, but she's standing outside. She's neither coming in nor leaving. I really don't know what's going on. Is she waiting for you, Lord Natsugiri, to invite her?"

Xia Wuzhao flipped through the book. "How could such a thing be? You're probably just overthinking it. Asakawa Yo is probably standing outside for some other reason."

"So what should we do, Lady Natsugiri?"

Xiao Ai thought to Xia Wuzhao, "I think this is a great opportunity."

Xia Wuzhao said, "Just do nothing. Asakawa Yao is just standing there, so don't bother her."

Chapter 389 The tender leaves, unchanged and never withered, remain the same [4k]

Why did you come here after school?

Asakawa Yo felt that no reason was needed.

—Of course it's not because I like it, or for reasons that are too perfunctory.

If I had to find a reason, it would probably be...

—It's very quiet here.

The Literature Department is located on the top floor of the club building, and the Literature Club is the only club on that floor. Normally, no one comes here at all.

Even the occasional passing by is extremely rare.

So this is probably the quietest place on campus.

This is also the reason why Asakawa Yo stayed here.

Leaning on the railing, I gazed at the students in the courtyard, some walking, some running and jumping.

Her expression didn't change much; in fact, it was rather indifferent.

If it were anyone else, they would probably be somewhat envious, no matter what.

But Asakawa Yo just watched silently, looking somewhat dazed.

Occasionally, she would look around.

If she sees other people, she will go to the stairs and hide.

—But this had never happened, which made her feel happy.
