I'm in a real religion, why are all the people who confess to me girls?

Women's restroom.

"Hmph~ Hmph~ Hmph~~ Hmph~"

Humming a tune, Tianze dried her hands with the hand dryer and then started fixing her makeup in front of the mirror in the girls' restroom.

After all, Tianze usually cares a lot about her image, and she will go to the bathroom to touch up her makeup whenever she has free time to avoid making herself look flawless.

Just as Tianze was applying brightly colored lipstick and was about to leave, satisfied, he saw Tianyin standing at the door with her arms crossed.

Almost the instant he saw Tianyin, Tianze turned and ran into the bathroom. Tianyin didn't stop him, letting him run into a dead end from which he couldn't escape.

Tianze hurriedly opened the door to a private stall and was about to go in when she felt someone gently push her from behind. She lost her balance and fell face-first onto the toilet seat.

"Wait a minute! I was just teasing Xiaoyi... I can apologize to her!..."

"An apology is definitely necessary, but let's play a game before we do."

As Tianyin smiled gently, she closed the door to the cubicle as well.

Chapter 276: You only asked after everything was done.

"Seriously, I just touched up my makeup and now I have to do it all over again..."

Tianze stood by the bathroom mirror, her clothes a little disheveled, and started touching up her makeup again with her makeup box.

I clearly told you not to kiss so hard...

Tianze felt a little annoyed looking at the faint teeth marks on her lips. The sports festival rankings were about to be announced and the closing ceremony was about to begin. If someone saw this shameful mark, she, as the leader of Class A in the first year, would lose face.

But whether it was because Tianyin was too focused or on purpose, the teeth marks were very obvious. No matter what method Tianze tried to cover them up, the marks were still quite obvious. Now, there was no other way but to wear a mask to attend the closing ceremony of the sports festival.

Just then, Tianyin, with a blissful expression, came up behind Tianze and affectionately hugged his waist.

"Why are you wearing so much lipstick today? The colors are a bit too heavy."

As Tianyin spoke, she even tasted it, which made Tianze so angry that he wanted to throw the makeup box at Tianyin's face. However, after recalling what had just happened to him, Tianze gave up on this very dangerous idea.

"Tianyin, please stop! If this continues, I'll have to redo my makeup again..."

Tianze stopped mid-sentence because she realized that Tianyin had actually listened to her and hadn't taken any further action.

But no matter how you look at it, Tianze doesn't think Tianyin will let her go at this time.

"Yixia, what should you call me?"

Tianyin whispered in Tianze's ear.

Tianze was reminded by Tianyin that he had forgotten to call her by that embarrassing nickname.

"Master..."

Despite the passage of time, Tianze's identity remains that of a pet. It's not that Tianze wants to stay by Tianyin's side in this capacity, but rather that Tianyin still has no intention of forgiving her.

"Want to do it again?"

"Eh? Now? I'm afraid there won't be enough time. Besides, Master, aren't you going on stage to receive an award later? You definitely need to prepare in advance for the award ceremony, and you might even have to give a speech. If we delay things, Arisu-senpai will probably be angry, right?"

Tianze was startled by Tianyin's sudden suggestion. The battle just now was too intense, and she hadn't recovered yet. If they were to fight again...

Tianze felt that he might have to miss the closing ceremony of the upcoming sports festival.

Fortunately, Tianyin had not been blinded by desire. After glancing at the time on her phone, she reluctantly released Tianze from her arms.

Arisu has already helped me a lot today, and if she misses the closing ceremony because she's discussing life with Amasawa, Arisu might really be angry.

Arisu's angry appearance was quite frightening. After recalling Arisu's angry appearance, Amane quickly gave up the idea of ​​continuing to discuss life with Amane.

"Let's call it a day for now. I'll come find you again next time I have time. Oh, by the way, I'm having a barbecue party outside the playground tonight. If you're interested, you can come and support me."

Upon hearing that Tianyin was really going to hold a barbecue party, Tianze's eyes lit up, but he quickly shook his head.

"Although I really want to attend Tenon... Master's barbecue party, that idiot Xiaoyi will definitely help out. If she finds out, that girl will fight me to the death."

Amaze could imagine that the moment she appeared in Nanase's field of vision, that guy would rush towards her with a skewer of barbecue meat, saying something like he was going to turn her into a kebab.

Nanase may be a bit slow-witted, but her fighting ability is by no means lacking. If I were in good condition, even Nanase wouldn't be able to get the better of me. But in my half-crippled state... I might actually be bullied by that guy.

Who is she? She is the proud Tianze Yixia, how could she allow herself to be bullied by an idiot?

So after much deliberation, although Amaze was very interested in Amane's barbecue party, she chose to give it up. However, she could ask her classmate to bring some back for her, so she could enjoy Amane's homemade food without risking meeting Nanase.

'Hmph, I'm truly a genius!'

Just as Tianze was feeling smug, he suddenly felt a sharp pain on his head.

Tianyin gently tapped Tianze's head with the back of her finger.

"Who told you to have nothing better to do than bully Xiaoyi all the time? When we first met, Xiaoyi was a cool and beautiful girl, but after spending more time with you, she's turned into a simple-minded idiot."

"I don't want to bully her either, but this school is just too boring. If I don't find some fun to relieve my boredom, I'll get tired of everything here sooner or later."

Tenze's motives were a bit unexpected for Tenon. Tenon thought that Tenze liked to bully Nanase because of their private competition and the class competition among first-year students, which made Tenze like to bully Nanase whenever he had nothing to do. But it turned out that Tenze was just bored and wanted to find some fun from Nanase. This personality had become so bad that Tenon felt that he had to correct it.

Nanase is really unlucky; this is truly an unexpected disaster.

"You can't just bully Xiaoyi all summer. If you keep bullying her, you might end up fleecing her. Aren't you afraid that if you bully her too much, Xiaoyi will turn around and bully you in return?"

"Given Xiaoyi's way of thinking and personality, as long as you don't give her any bad ideas, Tianyin, she definitely won't think of taking the initiative to attack. But even if Xiaoyi wants to bully me, I might not let her succeed... Let's leave it at that today."

"Actually, if you had come wearing a mask, Xiaoyi might not have recognized you."

Tianze shook his head repeatedly at Tianyin's words.

"Xiaoyi is a bit clumsy, but not that clumsy. If I show my face, that guy will definitely take the opportunity to retaliate. At the very least, I'll definitely get those hundred ice creams. So I'd better not go. Anyway, I can just ask someone to buy some for me and I can still eat the food you baked, Tianyin~"

As soon as Tianze finished speaking, he quickly covered his mouth. He had just slipped into the way he used the previous form of address. However, Tianyin did not intend to correct Tianze. Using strange forms of address during those kinds of things was called being romantic, but demanding that Tianze use such forms of address in everyday life would be truly perverted.

Although in some people's eyes, Tianyin is almost synonymous with pervert.

"How about we make a bet this summer?"

Seeing that Amaze was so confident that Nanase would recognize her, Tenon became interested.

"Tianyin, what kind of bet do you want to make?"

Given Tianze's competitive nature, she would usually agree to a bet without hesitation if someone offered to do so. She was quite confident in her abilities, but the change in bet partner to Tianyin...

Tianze needs to be extra careful, otherwise she might get completely fooled by Tianyin and end up being taken advantage of while still counting money for Tianyin. Yes, I'm talking about a certain idiot, definitely not Tianze Yixia.

"I'm betting on whether Nanase will recognize you at the barbecue party if you wear a mask. If I win, next time you'll have to use your mouth... understand?"

Tianyin whispered some strange ideas in Tianze's ear, which made Tianze's face turn bright red instantly, and then he covered his mouth in fear.

"Seriously? Is this going to be this extreme? But I'm also quite curious and want to try it out~ What if I win? Tianyin, your conditions this time are a bit too much. If I win, the reward shouldn't be too bad, right?"

Tianze licked his lips, a look of anticipation on his face.

However, Tianyin made the bet on a whim and hadn't decided what to give Tianze yet. Since Tianze wanted something, she figured she might as well grant her wish.

What do you want, Yixia?

"Confession!"

"Confession?"

"That's right! I want you, Amane, to confess to me in front of Arisu-senpai!"

Tianze's request made Tianyin subconsciously raise an eyebrow.

"Ichika, are you sure you want this kind of reward? I can't guarantee that Arisu won't have any other ideas. If you want something like a gift or personal points, I can accommodate you."

Amane knew very well that Arisu had been quite tolerant of her and the other girls she was close to, but she really didn't know what Arisu thought of a confession like Amane's, which had a slightly provocative tone.

"I just want your confession, Tianyin... Although I know it's a bit silly to ask this now, Tianyin, you like me, right?"

Tianze Yixia, who is usually very confident, felt uneasy at this moment. Now that she thought about it, she seemed to have asked Tianyin this question a long time ago.

Tianyin clearly stated that she liked Tianze Yixia, but after saying that, she brutally... cough cough...

In short, it gave Tianze a somewhat unreal feeling. Sometimes when she was alone in the dormitory, she would wonder if Tianyin really liked her as a person or if she just liked doing *that* with her.

After all, it's unlikely that a normal person would fall in love with someone who tries to frame them...

However, if you think about it this way, there will be even more points to criticize. First of all, no matter how Tianze looks at it, it is difficult to associate Tianyin with the word "normal person". So it is normal that other people cannot understand what Tianyin, who is not a normal person, does or decides.

Then, Tianze Yixia initially wanted to frame Tianyin, to ruin Tianyin's reputation or even expel her from school. However, not only did the plan fail at the very beginning, but she herself was also...

From any angle, Tianze couldn't find any reason why Tianyin would like someone like her, which was why she questioned Tianyin's claim of liking her.

However, there are examples that prove that Amane doesn't care about what happened at the White House. For example, Nanase used to say that she wanted to take revenge, but Amane spoiled her rotten.

Since Amane can accept someone like Nanase who seeks revenge, then what she did back then seems like a harmless prank, and Amane would never look down on her because of that.

that……

Why does Tianyin always treat her like a pet?

"We're already in this relationship, and you're still asking me if I like you?"

Tianyin reached out and pinched Tianze's soft and warm cheek.

"I want to know the answer..."

Aren't you afraid the answer will hurt your feelings?

Tianyin's words made Tianze's heart skip a beat, and his breathing became uneven. However, having undergone psychological pressure training, Tianze quickly returned to normal.

"I might be sad... but more than sadness, I want to hear a reassuring answer from you, Tianyin."

Seeing Tianze's determined gaze, Tianyin's lips began to curve upwards.

"I never expected you to have such a cute side, Ichika. Since you want to know the answer, I'll give you the answer: 'I like you.' If you want to hear a confession, you have to win this bet now~"

Tianyin patted Tianze's head and left the bathroom first, leaving Tianze alone standing silently by the mirror, looking at his reflection with red eyes and a mocking smile.

"You don't even have this much confidence, yet you want to stand by her side? Tianze Yixia! From now on, you'd better pull yourself together!"

Tianze patted his cheeks hard, then turned and left with a smile.

Only after the restroom returned to complete silence was one of the stall doors gently pushed open.

"Want to confess to me in front of me? What an interesting girl. Should I pretend to be angry and scare her? Hmm~ That's a good idea, but I have to be careful not to overdo it. If I scare the girl too much, Tianyin will lose a toy..."

……

The closing ceremony of the sports festival was much simpler than the opening ceremony. According to the rankings, the four third-year classes successfully swept the top four places in this sports festival by using the strategy of "Tian Ji's horse race".

The fifth to eighth places are respectively from Grade 2 Class A, Grade 2 Class D, Grade 2 Class B, and Grade 1 Class A.

Since Class 2A had received a promise from the school that they would not lose class points as long as they achieved a ranking, there was basically no objection to the result. However, for the other classes, this failure in the sports festival would undoubtedly widen the gap between them.

Now, even the gap between Class B and Class A in the second year is almost 400 points. It has become a consensus among many second-year students that Class A will eventually graduate as Class A.

Another unfortunate class was Class C of the second year, led by Ayanokouji, which had just been promoted to Class C. Although Class C of the second year performed well in both individual and team competitions, the problem was that Class C of the second year had too few people, so much so that they couldn't even gather enough people for many events, thus falling to the last tier and losing a lot of class points.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, once the sports festival ends, they will almost certainly fall back to Class D.

Next, school leaders, student council president Arisu, and Amane, who won the Best Challenger Award and was awarded one million personal points, took turns to give speeches.

With Arisu announcing the perfect conclusion of the Sports Festival closing ceremony, this Sports Festival, which seemed to have benefited everyone except Amane, has officially come to an end.

Just as everyone was chatting and laughing, preparing to go back to the dormitory for a big meal to reward themselves, they discovered that someone was already eyeing their personal points at the exit of the playground.

Chapter 277: You blocked me?

"What smells so good?"

The students, who had just finished a day of physical competition, were about to go back and treat their hungry stomachs when they were lured to stop by a delicious aroma wafting from somewhere.

Although the school kindly provided boxed lunches during the lunch break, demonstrating its care for the students, the food was just so unappetizing. It was quite a feat for the chefs to make the meat dishes taste as good as the vegetable set meals. Even if you fed it to the pigs, they would complain about the waste of ingredients.

Just as a group of students, whose stomachs were growling with hunger, were searching for the source of the aroma, they saw a conspicuous orange lantern shaped like a bear hanging on the open ground of the playground.

At this point, anyone who isn't starving should be able to guess the source of the aroma.

Students flocked to the small stall, eager to see what food was being prepared, as the aroma was incredibly enticing.

"Senior, what kind of meat is being grilled?"

A girl with short pink hair pointed curiously at the meat skewers being grilled over charcoal on the barbecue grill and asked a question.

"This is lamb! You probably don't usually eat grilled lamb skewers. If you're not used to it, we also have yakitori and hamburger patties over there."

Amane smiled and answered the other person's question, then casually pointed to Nanase, who was busy working on something nearby.

"Huh? It's mutton... Then give it to me... Um, what's the price?"

The girl, who was about to enjoy a hearty meal, immediately asked about the price when she saw Tianyin carrying a large, seemingly substantial skewer of marinated lamb, brushing it with sauce, and placing it on the grill.
