I won't be a loser.

"Are you going out today?"

He looked at his sister, then at Mitsuha in front of him, Xianren took in her attire, she wasn't wearing pajamas anymore, but she was still quite casual, a white collar t-shirt and denim shorts.

"What are you looking at? I don't want to go out, and there's nowhere else to go, right? This place."

After complaining about Itomori's boredom, Mitsuha sat down, and Sayaka came to Mitsuha's side and sat at the table with her. Kento poured Sayaka a cup of tea.

"What about mine?"

"Pour it yourself."

"Excessive!"

"I'm going back to my room now. You'll be on your own, Sayaka."

With a wave of his hand, Xianren walked towards his room, while Sanye curled the corners of her mouth and complained to Xianren sullenly. She lowered her head at the table. It was empty but it didn't matter. She lowered her head sullenly, leaned against the table, and couldn't help sighing.

"I'm so bored. I don't know what to do."

"Brother Xianren is back, where's his girlfriend? Why haven't I seen her?"

"Hmm? Probably in his room."

"Room, room, room?!"

Thinking of those overly mature magazines and videos that she had accidentally found in her parents' room, Sayaka couldn't help but blush, and all the blurred images appeared in her mind -

Summer Cicadas: 226. You came at the right time

Sayaka couldn't help but glance towards Kento's room, but she only saw the shadow of the door. She couldn't see what the scenery inside the room was like. Sayaka couldn't help but feel concerned and looked at Mitsuha beside her.

"What's wrong? Are you overreacting? Are you thinking of something bad?"

"No, I didn't!"

She quickly denied it. How could she easily say out loud those things that she could only watch alone in the room?

"Well, I can only think about it anyway."

After mercilessly hitting her friend, Sanye turned her gaze to the TV. She looked listless and dazed, and no one knew what she was thinking about.

Seeing that Mitsuha was thinking about something, Sayaka couldn't help but calm down and looked at the TV program in front of her.

"I'm going out after a while."

"Going out?"

Sayaka suddenly spoke and looked at Mitsuha beside her. She found that Mitsuha was still looking at the TV in front of her, as if she was not talking to her, but she did take over her words.

"I'll be going to Tokyo and will probably stay there for a while. I might not be back until school starts."

"Tokyo?! Didn't we already go there in May?"

"Isn't he back? So when we go to Tokyo this time, my brother will take him with him."

Sayaka was a little envious. She had never been to Tokyo yet, and her family had no special reason to go out to a city like Tokyo. Even the farthest place she had been was just nearby Nagoya, and she only went there occasionally.

Sayaka was a little envious of Mitsuha who was able to go to Tokyo, and she also wanted to go to Tokyo to take a look, but her family was unlikely to agree.

"That's great! I can go to Tokyo. My family probably won't agree. They'll probably have to wait until I graduate from high school before they'll allow me to go to a big city like Tokyo."

She felt a little emotional in her heart, but deep down, Sayaka wasn't really looking forward to it. That was her personality. When she grew up, she would be able to go to a place like Tokyo alone, and she would feel relieved.

"Ah, it's still early. Everything will have to wait a long time. Oh, and the envoy is not home today?"

"No, I simply didn't call him. He should be at home. When I woke up this morning, I saw the light on in his room. He should be sleeping now."

"Didn't you sleep last night?"

"There should be no rest."

Sayaka and the imperial envoy were very close to each other. Sayaka could see the room of Imperial envoy Katsuhiko Kawahara across the street just by standing in her own room.

"I don't really understand what those boys are doing all night long."

"Will Xianren also stay up late?"

"Occasionally."

When Xianren was still at home, Sanye would often get up in the middle of the night and see the light on in his room. She would go to his room and look inside. She would see Xianren bent over his desk, doing something. He seemed to be working hard, which made Sanye feel a little conflicted and concerned.

"Doing homework?"

"Who knows."

Regarding this, Mitsuha couldn't be sure, but it was likely that she was doing her homework...

When he entered the room, he saw Sekai Saionji lying on the bed, tapping frantically on her phone, and Setsuna Kiyoura sitting at the desk, reading a book. Kento glanced at Setsuna and came to Sekai's side.

"The signal here is not very good. If you want to go online, it might be a bit difficult."

"It's been stuck for a long time and I can't see the next page."

Sekai Saionji also sighed, put down the phone in her hand, looked at the ceiling above her head, her eyes were a little empty, and she felt deeply tormented in her heart as she looked forward to the next plot.

"Next page?"

"I'm reading those novels on my phone. They're very interesting. Have you read them, Xianren?"

“Maybe I’ve seen some of it before.”

Hearing that it was a mobile phone novel, Xianren nodded.

"what about this?"

Saionji Sekai handed her phone to Xianren, leaned over to take a look. It was a novel she had definitely never read. If you ask why—

"You, often watch these?"

Noticing that something was wrong with the sage's eyes, Saionji Sekai quickly denied it.

"No, not really. I just take a look occasionally when I have nothing to do."

"Well...it's nothing, just a personal hobby, yeah."

After smiling at the girl in front of him, Xianren came to the side of Qingpu Setsuna and looked at the girl who was reading a book with her head down. The book she was reading was obviously much more normal than the BL novel "Sex Lover" in the world of Saionji.

The girl noticed the footsteps beside her, raised her head, and glanced at the wise man beside her.

The two looked at each other, and Setsuna silently lowered his head and continued reading the book, while Xianren just stared at it for a while, then walked aside and lay down on the bed where Saionji Sekai was lying.

The bed is not small, it is more than enough for two people, and three people can actually sleep on it. However, because there are three of them, it is obviously not possible to lie down on the same bed casually.

Last night, because he thought everyone in the family had gone to bed, he relaxed a little, but was caught by Erye. Xianren couldn't help but sigh and looked at Saionji Sekai beside him. She was lying on her side on the bed, not touching her mobile phone, but lying quietly as if she was asleep.

He was a little concerned in his heart and wanted to attack Saionji Sekai and play a trick on her, but when he thought about the other people at home who might come into the room at any time, he realized that there were other people there.

Staying in this soothing environment, my heart is indeed much calmer, but I am also a little bored. I don’t know what to do. I looked at my notebook, which I haven’t touched for a long time.

After returning from Tokyo, he has not been able to sit down and open his notebook, but he really has no time to touch it. Sitting in his room, he can continue his original creation alone, but the other two have to watch him work.

Not knowing what to do, Xianren, who suddenly felt free, lay on the bed and gradually closed his eyes.

After waiting for a while, the movable floor-standing air conditioner was finally delivered to his home and was sent to the guest room by the workers. Shanshan and Shijie, who had been staying in his room, could now go back to the guest room to rest.

The two girls who had been staying in his room without air conditioning had no reason to stay any longer, so they left Xianren's room together and went to the guest room to rest.

At night, Xianren suddenly became alone. Sitting in his room, he opened his notebook, adjusted his mentality slightly, and then quietly began his own creation. He turned his feelings during this period into words and slightly modified the original plot.

This is what creation is all about. Sometimes you may have already thought about how you should write, but when you actually start to create, your mood at the time or an experience will change the content of your creation.

"From a content perspective, it should be more coherent and better than previously expected."

He saved what he had written in a document, then slowly stood up and looked at his empty room. He didn't need to sleep on the floor anymore, but sleeping on the bed made him feel a little lonely.

When he was about to go to bed to rest in his pajamas, he suddenly heard footsteps at the door, which made Xianren, who was walking to the edge of the bed, stop and look towards the door.

wow——

The door was opened, and lavender-printed pajamas appeared in Xianren's sight. Erye slowly entered her son's room, and after entering the room, she gently pulled the door back up.

"I saw your light was still on, so I thought you might not have rested yet, so I came over to check. Are you ready to rest?"

"I just made this preparation."

Seeing Erye suddenly coming to his room and facing his mother, Xianren was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the person who came would be her.

"I've been back for a while now. During this time, I've been around Itomori and even visited Nagoya. But don't you feel like something's missing?"

After hearing Erye's words, Xianren, who was standing in the room, couldn't help but frowned. He thought about it and came up with something, but he didn't want to mention that person and remained silent.

At this time, his relationship with his father was still normal and had not become strained.

After returning to Itomori for such a long time, he should go and meet the other party, but the thought of meeting the other party made him feel deeply depressed. He bit his lips, took a deep breath, and calmed his fluctuating mood.

"Father has to deal with official business every day and doesn't have much time to rest. It's a bit unreasonable to disturb him when he's resting. Let's meet him someday when he's at home and I'm on vacation. If there's anything, can't we just call?"

"But I can't see you in person just by phone. I can't feel your growth face to face. You've changed a lot since before you went to Tokyo."

Yes, it was a lot. What he actually experienced was much more than what Erye in front of him knew in just a few months.

It is natural that people will feel changes and differences.

"I'll think about it and meet him when I have time."

Facing the man who always remained serious, Xianren's relationship with him was average. The attitude shown by the other party towards Xianren was also very ordinary. He did not feel any strong emotions from him. The relationship between the two was only maintained as "father and son" without any deep feelings.

It's not that he doesn't understand the efforts and hardships the other person has put in during his growth, but even if he knew and understood, it would be difficult for him and Miyamizu Toshiki to suddenly develop an unshakable relationship.

Familiar, yet strange.

This was probably the only way he could think of to describe their father-son relationship.

Looking at Xianren's expression, Miyamizu Futaba understood that her son was just trying to fool her, but at least she agreed. She would wait for the right time and create an opportunity for the two of them to meet.

"I'll ask him if he'll be free soon. Remember to go to bed early."

"Ah."

When Miyamizu Futaba was about to leave, before she reached the door, the barrier door was suddenly opened. She stuck her head out and wanted to enter the world of Saionji inside the house. Just as she was about to call out Xianren's name, she saw the lavender pajamas in front of her. She was stunned for a moment, raised her head, and saw Miyamizu Futaba with a look of surprise.

"Ah, Auntie..."

"I just finished talking to Xianren. Do you have something to do with him?"

"I, I...want to ask a question."

"Well, you guys chat, I'm going to rest first."

Looking at the Saionji World in front of him, Miyamizu Futaba did not expose it. She glanced at her son's calm expression and sighed. She didn't know what was going on with the three of them, and she didn't know whether Kiyoura Mai knew about his daughter.

When she suddenly heard that her son had a girlfriend in Tokyo, Miyamizu Futaba was a little surprised. She didn't know why her son, who had always been a chaste man in Itomori, suddenly had a girlfriend. When she learned that he had even met the other party's family, Miyamizu Futaba was even more surprised and shocked.

Now that there is a new Saionji world, Miyamizu Futaba can only say that she is no longer surprised.

Her only hope was that her son would not cause any loss of life, in all aspects—

After taking a look at Saionji Sekai, Miyamizu Futaba left the room. As for the remaining two people, Saionji Sekai looked at Xianren with some embarrassment and smiled bitterly.

"Well, I'm sorry to trouble you."

"You haven't said anything, have you? If you haven't said anything, then it means you don't care. There's no need to be so nervous."

"I......."

"What's matter?"

"It's nothing particularly important. I'm just a little bored tonight and wanted to come chat with you, Xianren. Setsuna is also planning to come over. She was just about to charge her phone, so she'll come over later."

After listening to Saionji Sekai's explanation and answer, he looked at her with some helplessness and emotion.

About four or five minutes later, Setsuna came to Xianren's room. Seeing the two people who remained silent, he didn't know what had happened and looked at them in confusion.

After a day of normal work and rest, it was declared out of balance again
