I won't be a loser.

"Nothing...nothing, just normal..."

"I saw you kiss him goodbye last night, didn't you?"

Looking at Setsuna who was blushing in front of him, Saionji Sekai entered the room, leaned close to Setsuna's ear, and whispered softly in her ear with a gentle and charming voice.

When her cheeks turned red, she looked at the world in front of her.

"why?"

"I was just bored and took a look outside, but I didn't expect to see you. It seemed that you were at the door of Miyamizu-kun's house. Out of curiosity, I took a few more glances. I didn't expect that the two of you had developed to this extent."

"No, I just... confessed and agreed."

Looking at Setsuna who suddenly became shy in front of her, and thinking of herself who failed in confession, Saionji Sekai felt complicated. Looking at the silent Setsuna in front of her, she stretched out her arms, hugged Setsuna tightly in her arms, and rubbed against Setsuna in front of her.

"Hey, have you told him about you and me?"

"Yes, Xianren, I already know."

"Then let's go visit him together. Let me introduce you to Setsuna, the dearest friend who sacrificed his life for his friend!"

"..."

The time left for the start of school is getting shorter and shorter. Tomorrow is the last holiday, and the day after tomorrow, students will go to school to attend the opening ceremony. Xianren, sitting in his room, recalled the scenes he had in school, and his mood became complicated.

"Eriri...?"

After thinking about it, I realized that nothing had happened yet and I didn't know the other party. Once I entered the school, as long as I didn't have any contact with the other party, nothing else would happen.

keep distance.

All you need to do is keep your distance.

He sat down at the desk and opened the book he had bought. He had only read less than half of the content so far. He planned to finish the book before school started. After reading three pages, he heard the doorbell ring.

"moment......?"

He glanced at the book in his hand, casually put a bookmark on it and closed it, then walked to the door.

"Good morning, Setsuna...and Miss Saionji."

The person standing at the door was not only Setsuna as Xianren expected, but also a girl who was a little beyond Xianren's expectations. She was standing next to Setsuna at the moment and came to visit him with Setsuna.

"Good morning, Miyamizu-kun."

"good morning."

Looking at the two girls who appeared in front of his door, Xianren said "Good morning" and let them into his apartment.

Saionji Sekai entered Kento's apartment for the first time and observed the house with some curiosity. It was also her first time entering the room of a boy of the same age. Although she came to visit Kento last time, she was unable to enter the house because of the letter he sent her.

Now when I come in and see the clean and tidy room, I feel a little surprised and astonished.

Under the general impression that boys' rooms should be messy, even Saionji Sekai has some preconceived notions about Kento's room, thinking that even if it is not messy, it will not be very good.

But at this moment, looking at this tidy room, Saionji Sekai was really surprised.

His eyes fell on the wise man walking in front. Looking at the young man's gentle and polite temperament, as well as his handsome face, it didn't seem particularly surprising that he had tidied his room so cleanly and tidyly.

Rather, it is supposed to be like this?

Kiyoura Setsuna, who entered the room with Saionji Sekai, has been paying attention to her friend since entering the room.

She sensed that the world's attention was always on Xianren. Although she didn't show any reaction or expression, she was already on high alert in her heart, always ready to be on guard against her friend, who might backstab her without her knowing...

Cherry Blossom Season: 24. Today's Loser - Saionji World

As if to declare sovereignty, when the three of them entered the house, the sage poured tea and just sat down, they immediately sat in the sage's arms in front of the world.

"that......."

Looking at Setsuna sitting in the arms of the wise man, Sekai Saionji on the opposite side looked at Setsuna's face, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

"What's wrong, world?"

Kiyoura Setsuna looked at his friend and asked Saionji Sekai with a natural and calm expression.

"No... Even if you two are already dating, being so close in front of me is a bit..."

"Something?"

"No, it's nothing."

Seeing that Sekai was completely unmoved, Saionji Sekai could only swallow the dog food silently, silently picked up the teacup in front of her, and used drinking tea to cover up her embarrassment.

As the owner of this room, the moment Xianren took a look at the girl in his arms, he no longer felt uncomfortable at the beginning. He lowered his head to look at the girl in his arms, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

"Last time, I played a little too much of a prank. Although Setsuna has already explained it, I think it's better to introduce myself again."

Her gaze paused on Shanshan for a moment. She felt that if she continued to look, she would become depressed. So she raised her eyes to Xianren's face and reintroduced her identity in a way that was a little different from last time.

"My name is Sekai Saionji. I'm the same age as Setsuna this year. We're both first-year high school students at Sakakino Academy. I'm also Setsuna's best friend, having grown up with her. Last time, I was curious because Setsuna seemed to have someone she liked, so I came to check on her and test the waters a bit."

Putting his hands together in front of himself, Sekai Saionji apologized to the wise man.

"I'm so sorry!"

"It's all in the past. I don't take it to heart, so there's no need to worry about it."

Looking at the apologetic expression on the black-haired girl's face, Xianren didn't care much. When he heard Saionji Sekai's confession, he was quite surprised. It was the first time for him to be confessed to after they just met.

However, after hearing Setsuna's explanation, he felt it was normal. How could an ordinary person confess their love the moment they met?

In addition, the name "Xiyuanji World" itself represents a deterrent force, which is more like a simple teasing and temptation, making Xianren feel more at ease.

Seeing the natural expression, it seemed that the wise man really didn't take it so seriously. Saionji Sekai was speechless for a moment, smiled awkwardly, and felt a great sense of loss in her heart. She didn't expect that her confession had no effect on Miyamizu at all, which made her doubt herself.

However, the so-called suspicion was only a momentary thing, and her attention was mostly occupied by her curiosity about the relationship between the two.

He felt lost for a moment, then started asking about their relationship.

"Back then, I remember Miyamizu-kun rejected me because he said he wasn't ready for a relationship before college, right? But why are you willing to date Setsuna now? Was that just a response to my question?"

A cunning look appeared on Saionji Sekai's face. She asked Kento the doubts in her heart. She wanted to know why Kento was dating Setsuna, and at the same time, she gave him a small return gift. The other party had rejected her at that time.

The moment she sat in Xianren's arms and heard the questions about the world of Saionji, she was actually a little curious in her heart. She didn't understand why Xianren was shaken at that time. She wanted to understand the psychological changes of Xianren at that time, so she slightly raised her snow-white neck and looked at Xianren's face.

The two girls focused their attention on themselves, noticing the cunning in Saionji Sekai's eyes, and roughly guessed why the other party asked in this way.

There was not much trouble in his mind, so he spoke his thoughts frankly.

"Because it was my first time meeting Ms. Saionji at that time, and we hadn't interacted much, I heard that Ms. Saionji had a 'good impression' of me, which surprised me a little. So after careful consideration, I used this reason as a reason to refuse."

"So you said 'I'm not planning on dating until I graduate from university' just to reject me?"

"No, I really did have such thoughts, but later Setsuna came to me and explained to me about Miss Saionji and her feelings for me, and I rejected her for the same reason."

Blinking, Saionji Sekai didn't know that Setsuna had been rejected before. Looking at Setsuna sitting in Xianren's arms, she was a little dazed.

"That?"

"But Setsuna's feelings...are very sincere. After careful consideration, I have decided that as long as Setsuna's family agrees, I can try to date Setsuna."

"So, Ms. Qingpu also knows about this?"

Saionji Sekai was completely stunned and looked at her good sister in surprise.

Facing the surprised expression of Saionji Sekai, Setsuna nodded calmly, then shrank slightly in Xianren's arms, and pressed her body a little closer to Xianren's.

"Ms. Qingpu, didn't she object?"

“My mom is very supportive.”

After entering the house, there was basically no conversation. Just a single sentence completely sank Xiyuanji's world.

"I-I see, Kiyoura-san is also supporting Setsuna... Ahahaha..."

Looking at the forced smile of Saionji Sekai, neither Kento nor Setsuna spoke. The atmosphere in the room suddenly grew heavy, and Setsuna even wondered if his dominance over Kento might be a bit excessive...

Fortunately, Saionji Sekai had a good ability to adjust himself, and he quickly got rid of the heavy feeling that he seemed to have no chance. He regained his usual spirit, began to adjust the atmosphere, and talked with Setsuna and Kento about the upcoming school.

Because they were in different schools, Saionji Sekai expressed great regret that Setsuna and Kento could not go to school together on weekdays.

"It's a shame that we can't cuddle together at noon on weekdays, and Setsuna can't personally feed the bento she made to Miyamizu-kun...."

"There's no chance for the two of them to go to school and go home together like in the comics."

“It would be nice if it was a school.”

Looking at Setsuna who was sitting in the arms of the wise man with a wicked smile, the only psychological comfort that Saionji Sekai could find now was probably teasing her like this.

But the moment he sat in the arms of the wise man, he completely destroyed the world of Saionji with just one sentence.

"Tonight, I'm going to stay here and sleep with Xianren."

"........"

The smile froze on his face, and the world of Saionji was completely defeated.

The CV of Katsura Kotonoha is actually the same person as Nogizaka Hatsuka. I really didn't notice this.

Cherry Blossom Season: 25. My friend called her daughter's boyfriend's name while she was sleeping

Another day's work is over.

Qingura Mai did not go home directly as usual, nor did she go to Xianren's apartment like she did yesterday.

After finishing some business in the company and getting off work, I felt like a burden had been lifted from my body and I felt relaxed. I picked up my bag, said goodbye to other colleagues, and headed to the restaurant that I rarely went to on weekdays.

The family restaurant 'Radish' was inherited by Yuko Saionji as the second daughter of the Ino family. It was also the property of her grandfather, the wealthy Inoue.

Kiyoura Mai looked at the family restaurant in front of her and the familiar sign. Her mother, Ino Kagura, also ran a similar family restaurant.

Because Ze Yuezhi, who was undoubtedly a complete scum, had been running the family business in a disorderly manner, and with the blind support of his mother and grandmother, the entire family business had been heavily in debt for some time.

When Qingpu Mai was young, she went through a very difficult and dark life.

Even though they later overcame the difficulties with the efforts of everyone in the family and the inheritance left by their great-grandfather Inosuke, the originally wealthy family completely declined, and only these family restaurants remained.

It was precisely because of the family's dark past that Qingura Mai left her own restaurant when she was old enough to live independently and lived outside with Qingura Setsuna.

In the entire Ino family, she only became friends with Saionji Yuko because of their two children and past lovers, and they occasionally contacted and met.

Today, because of her daughter's problem, she didn't know how to go back home to face her daughter, so she chose to come to the restaurant alone to find Saionji Yuko, who is her mother's sister but the same age as her, to meet and chat with her and relieve her inner depression.

Just from the perspective of seniority, she should have called Saionji Oko "Aunt", but Kiyoura Mai's father was the same person as Saionji Oko's father.

Sawagoeshi and Ino Moegi, the mother of Saionji Yuko, gave birth to Ino Kagura, the mother of Kiyoura Mai, and Saionji Yuko. Later, he and Ino Kagura, the mother of Kiyoura Mai, who was also Sawagoeshi's eldest daughter, gave birth to Kiyoura Mai...

Due to the complicated blood relationship within the family, the two people who are close in age gave up their blood relationship and usually just get along as normal friends.

When Saionji Yuko was standing in the store in her work clothes as usual, observing the staff and some unfamiliar customers, she noticed Kiyoura Mai walking in from the door.

"Yuzi."

When Kiyoura Mai entered the restaurant, she saw Saionji Yuko working and was the first to greet her.

"Wu, why are you here today?"

"I want to consult you about something, do you have time?"

Because it was just after get off work, there weren't many people in the store. Only about a quarter of the seats were occupied, so it wasn't very busy and Saionji Yuko didn't need any help.

In addition, it was rare for Kiyoura Mai to come as a guest, so it was natural for Saionji Yuko to not entertain her personally.

"Of course, come with me."

Leading Mai Kiyoura into the store, they sat down in a relatively secluded corner. Saionji Yuko brought over two cups of coffee, handed one to Mai Kiyoura, and placed the other in front of herself, looking at Mai Kiyoura in front of her with some curiosity.

"What happened?"

"Has that man contacted you recently?"

That man is the nickname that Mai Kiyoura uses for her original lover, the father of Sekai Saionji and Setsuna Saionji, and the half-brother of Mai Kiyoura and Yuko Saionji, Shun.
