I save a pathological girl with a twisted love story.

The girl smiled and said, "That's right, it's the most refreshing mint flavor. It's also the most common and the easiest flavor to remember."

Chapter 123 A Heart That Overlaps and Collapses Over Time

The two made a pact to observe how other people date during the fourth period.

Chiho called the girl over and said, "I'm still worried about your date. What if the guy is a bad person? So, can I follow you? Don't worry, I'll just watch from a distance. The guy won't notice. If he tries to do anything bad to you, I can help you."

The girl blushed slightly and said hesitantly, "Class monitor, sometimes dating means doing naughty things."

But as soon as she finished speaking, she shyly covered her face with her hands.

Fortunately, the two spoke very quietly, so no one else could hear them.

Chiho looked at the girl, somewhat confused.

"When I ask Xia Wukai to do bad things, Xia Wukai is always nonchalant. Aren't the others like that too?"

Chiho thought for a moment and came up with another good idea.

“Then let’s agree on a hand gesture,” Chiho said, agreeing on a hand gesture with the girl.

If this gesture is made, then Chiho will come out to stop it.

If she hadn't made that gesture, Chiho would have just watched silently.

The girl thought about it and realized that it was really embarrassing to let others see her on a date.

But this is the class monitor, so there's no need to be too nervous, because the class monitor is an extremely good person.

So she agreed.

After the third period, the two of them told the teacher and asked for leave.

The teacher had no questions; there was no need to interfere too much with these good students.

The girls in the class went on a date in the shadows behind the club building. There was a grove of trees there, perfect for hiding their figures.

Kirishima Chiho and Natsugiri Kai were hiding in the woods, watching the couple pressed against the wall.

The couple blushed upon meeting.

The girl kept her head down demurely, while the boy was also troubled and didn't know what to say.

However, in the end, it was the boy who stammered and said something first.

Only then did the girl finally raise her head and look at the boy.

The boy blushed so much he almost wanted to turn his head away, but he remained stiff and at a loss.

This made the girl laugh.

After a while, the two finally started talking.

However, Chiho and Natsugiri Kai were too far away to hear what the couple was saying.

Chiho looked at it and said with a sudden realization, "So this is how lovers are."

She nudged Xia Wuzhao's shoulder: "So both of them are this shy."

Xia Wuzhao remained unmoved.

However, Kirishima Chiho recalled her interactions with Natsugiri.

"It seems like we've never gone through this shy phase together."

“That’s because they are a normal couple,” Xia Wuzhao said. “But we are not.”

Chiho fell silent.

"We are definitely not a normal couple."

"What couple would look like us? The only thing that makes us seem like lovers is intimate physical contact, but the more we do that, the less like lovers we seem."

"Because anyone can have intimate physical contact. But love can only be experienced with the person you love."

The girl remained silent, watching the couple.

The couple talked for a short while, and both of them had uncontrollable smiles on their faces.

They only touched shoulders lightly before pulling away in surprise.

But when they looked at each other, they couldn't help but smile.

That shy, innocent smile was the most common thing between that couple.

Just one glance is enough to make one realize it.

—Oh, she and he are a couple.

Just looking at this couple, you can realize—ah, they're willing to do anything for each other.

That's probably the magical power of love.

Even if you don't take it seriously, it always makes you feel sad and stirs up a little envy in your heart.

"What if, what if I and Xia Wu were a couple like that? What would that be like?"

Kirishima Chiho thought to herself.

"—He would probably be willing to do that for me."

"Because I'm in so much pain."

Chiho thought this, but in her heart she felt envious.

My heart is filled with longing.

She turned to Xia Wuzhao and whispered, "Want to kiss? Now?"

She longed for the warmth of the summer mist, and for the support of another person.

I long to no longer be alone.

Xia Wuzhao looked at her and said softly, "No."

A profound sense of disappointment filled Kirishima Chiho's heart.

Even so, she shouldn't feel embarrassed.

—Because, back in those mountain ruins, even if she was willing to be a bad girl and give up everything she had.

However, Xia Wuzhao also refused.

"Back then, I just felt a little powerless; I didn't feel any embarrassment at all. But it's different now."

"I actually felt a little embarrassed."

"He seemed somewhat annoyed, somewhat regretful—regretful that he hadn't said those words."

Chiho laughed and whispered, "Are you afraid of being discovered? You're such a coward, Natsugiri."

The girl said this, trying to hide her embarrassment.

Xia Wuzhao didn't pay much attention to the girl's current thoughts. He just watched the couple and saw that he and she were getting closer to each other without realizing it.

But in the end, all I wanted was to hold hands.

Even such a movement made the two of them extremely nervous.

Even the slightest touch of fingertips terrifies me.

Kirishima Chiho looked at her and said, "It's just holding hands, what's there to be afraid of?"

“Although they held hands, it proves that they have expressed their feelings to each other—that is, they like each other,” Xia Wuzhao said. “For them, this is a very solemn thing.”

"Then, what about our kiss?" Kirishima Chiho said, "It should be a stronger expression of our feelings than holding hands."

"Our kiss was just a kiss," Xia Wuzhao replied casually.

How disappointed Kirishima Chiho was!

She pursed her lips and said to Xia Wuzhao, "Why is there such a big difference?"

Xia Wuzhao said, "Because this is what you asked for."

The girl looked at Xia Wuzhao with an indescribable disappointment and a sense of discouragement.

"But Xia Wu is right. It was I who asked Xia Wu to be my boyfriend, it was I who made the promise with him."

"Because only in this way can I get what I want—death."

"But is my goal to become true lovers with Natsume, or to die?"

"Now, even I can't tell the difference anymore."

Thinking this, the girl and Xia Wuzhao silently watched the couple again.

The couple struggled for a while before finally holding hands.

The two people's fingers were clenched tightly together, as if they never wanted to let go.

Both of them were very shy and a little embarrassed.

But once they held hands, they were incredibly excited.

The young couple were chattering away, but Kirishima Chiho and Natsugiri Kai couldn't hear a word they were saying.

But you can sense that she and he must be very happy now.

Kirishima Chiho said, "Natsugiri, if we were a couple like that, you would definitely feel happy."

Xia Wuzhao said, "Probably."

Chiho smiled: "Is it just a guess? Or are you just unwilling to admit it?"

But Xia Wuzhao didn't answer the question. Instead, she said to Kirishima Chiho, "You should do it first before talking about this kind of thing."

"I know I can do it."

Chiho was full of confidence.

But Xia Wuzhao didn't think so. He said, "Do you really know what it means to like someone?"

Chiho didn't know, but she said, "Even if I don't know now, I will definitely know in the future."

Before long, it was noon.

It took the couple an entire class period to successfully hold hands.

Even so, they smiled with extreme happiness.

As if they had done something extraordinary, they prepared to sneak away at the end of the fourth period, not wanting anyone to find out.

Kirishima Chiho found the girl during a free moment.

The girl's heart was pounding. She said shyly, "Class monitor, did you see everything?"

Chiho nodded: "Yes, I saw it all."

"ah--"

The girl covered her face, feeling extremely shy and embarrassed.

In response, Kirishima Chiho simply smiled gently like an angel, exuding an aura that made everyone feel naturally close to her.

"What should we do next?"

Kirishima Chiho asked, "Now that you're a couple, what are you going to do next?"

The girl was puzzled as to why Kirishima Chiho would ask such a question.

However, she looked Kirishima Chiho up and down.

But I noticed that Kirishima Chiho's lip balm was missing a little bit.

"Huh?" The girl seemed to have discovered something: "Could it be that Chiho, the class president, also has a boyfriend?"

Chiho's face immediately turned red.

It was crimson, like the glow of clouds.

"No."

She quickly denied it.

But this made the girl opposite her laugh: "Really not? Class President?"

"No."
