They are in the music show, but I am a stranger to them

However, although his consciousness was a little blurred, Chen Qi's mind was still very clear, and he also noticed the answer to the question he wanted to know most.

After all, no one, including herself, had ever had any ill will towards Mu, and no one had expected that Mu would do such a trick. But if Su Shi had already discovered it... why didn't she tell everyone in advance, or expose Mu's trick? ⒉

However, after noticing Nagasaki Suyo's obvious slight tremor, he still did not show any anger. He showed a tired but gentle smile and said comfortingly:

"…I don't mean to blame you, Su Shi, don't be so nervous."

"Who among us doesn't have our own little thoughts? Mu will do something unexpected for various reasons of his own. I can understand that."

Although Chen Qi was plotted against, he was not angry... After all, he was the one who wanted to start a harem, and he was in the wrong to make these girls, who only had him in their hearts, accept each other and share a lover.

Forcing a kind-hearted girl like Mu to resort to such means...it can be considered my own fault.

"Mu, maybe you feel lonely."

"I've been busy with other people's things all this time and neglected Mu... I'm so sorry."

Chen Qi forced himself to stay awake and rubbed the soft long hair of the unconscious Mu Na. Then he gently gave up some of his space, moved Mu Na's delicate body gently to his side, and covered Mu Na with a blanket.

However, after watching Chen Qi's extremely gentle actions towards Mu, Su Shi's mood gradually changed from being nervous at the beginning to becoming a little more bitter, and she couldn't help but sigh:

"...Aqi, you have always been so gentle and indulgent to Xiaomu."⑵

“No, you have always been so patient and tolerant to Aine-chan, Deng-chan, and even Riki…”⑼

"But why..." At this point, Su Shi, who was in a state of confusion, once again started playing with her delicate fingers because of the nervousness in her heart. However, at this time, she could no longer avoid the surging emotions in her heart, and asked word by word:⑷

"Why is Aqi always so harsh and cruel to me?"

"Are you really unwilling to forgive me? You just leave me all alone and don't even give me the chance to touch you again?"⑷

Cruel? Me?

Chen Qi blinked, listening to Su Shi's rare expression of his true feelings, and he also vaguely realized that things were moving in a direction he could not predict... After all, he had seen this scene more than once.

"How could that be, Su Shi? Didn't I tell you a long time ago? I'm not actually angry." Chen Qi tried to dispel the deep concern that had remained in Su Shi's heart.

"——Why aren't you angry?"⑷

However, Chen Qi did not expect that his answer would make Su Shi even more dissatisfied. The girl anxiously fiddled with her fingers while whispering with more uncontrollable emotions:

"I obviously did something so excessive, why are you not even willing to be angry with me, Aqi?"

"You know what? Ah Qi, you didn't even scold me that day, you didn't even blame me. Your calmness at that time really scared me..."

"I'm afraid... you've completely given up on me. I'm really afraid that in your heart, I've completely stopped being valued by you and have become the person you don't want to win back."

"That day, if you had been angry with me for a while, or even hit me, at least... I would still know that you cared about me. You were just disappointed in me, but not desperate about me."

Chen Qi: “…”

Why aren't you angry? Because in that situation, I suspect that if I speak too harshly, you will be the next one to jump into the sea with Xiangzi.

Faced with Nagasaki Suyo's accusation, Chen Qi was speechless... But his reason still told him that when a girl has such an emotional outburst, he must not try to reason with her, otherwise it would be like talking to a deaf person and would also destroy this perfect atmosphere.

"Then, Su Shi, it's up to you to decide. What should I do to make you feel that I really don't blame you anymore and our relationship has returned to the same as before?"

Chen Qi, who chose to give the initiative to Su Shi, also noticed that Su Shi's finger was slightly startled. After a while, after Su Shi put down his finger that had been rubbed a little red, he slightly opened his arms in front of Chen Qi.

"Then, hug me."

"As long as Aqi is willing to hug me, I will believe what you say."

Trying to hold back her wildly beating heart, Nagasaki Suyo lowered her head and expressed her tiny and somewhat funny wish...but this tiny wish was indeed what she wanted most in her heart.

Nagasaki Suyo had certainly experienced the feeling of being hugged by Chen Qi. Not to mention other times, just at her home, she had pretended to be asleep more than once and let Chen Qi carry her to bed.

At that time, Nagasaki Suyo, who thought she was far ahead in progress, had fantasized more than once that if Aqi could carry her to bed and give her a light kiss on the forehead or lips, it would be a completely sweet life for a newlywed couple.

——But now, after experiencing the roller coaster from full of confidence to nothing again, Nagasaki Suyo has returned to this most simple wish.

She hopes that she can let the person she likes embrace her with true feelings without using any tricks or taking advantage of others.

Nagasaki Suyo lowered her head and tightly closed her eyes. She was not only nervous, but also afraid. She was afraid that her small request would be rejected by Aqi. If that happened, she would probably lose her last chance.

However, just when Su Shi closed her eyes, she keenly felt that a sound of footsteps was getting closer and closer to her... and her heartbeat kept accelerating, and her cheeks turned red with shame.

And the next second, what calmed Nagasaki Suyo's heart was the feeling of the hand gradually going around her waist and pressing against her back, and the warm and solid chest that embraced her with just the right amount of strength.

At that moment, all the uneasiness, melancholy, and even resentment in Su Shi's heart completely disappeared in this warm embrace.

Is this... the feeling of the purest hug?

As expected...after all, what I like most is this kind of pure love.

It’s just that as a girl named Nagasaki Suyo, it feels really good to be hugged by the big boy I admire.

"Aqi..."

"Ok?"

"Do I still have a chance to like you?"

Finally, driven by his inner desire, Su Shi, who had originally been planning to wait until the time was more mature to make this confession that he had been brewing for a long time, could no longer suppress his emotions.

She could no longer allow herself to be a bystander, watching her favorite boy being hugged, fought over, and possessed by other girls in turn, but because of everything that happened in the past, she was in no position to stop it.

She also wants to join. She also wants to be a girl who can express her willful and true side, like Aine, Li Xi, Deng and others, who can express their true side without restraint.

She no longer wanted to hide herself, and she didn't want to play any tricks that would hurt her sooner or later.

"——Sure, Sushi."

However, in her ears, the boy who hugged her gave her the answer she had always dreamed of.

But at the moment of receiving that answer, Nagasaki Suyo's expression was in a trance, and she felt that everything was so unreal...

"Is it really possible?"

Nagasaki Suyo felt that everything was so easy, even like a dream, and for a moment she couldn't control her emotions. While her tears as big as beans fell one by one unconsciously, she still had some doubts, was all this an illusion?

"After all the wrong things I've done, can I still have...such power?"

"I have clearly revealed my ugliest side. Aqi, can you really accept me like this?"

"Can I, a petty-minded, jealous, scheming and dangerous person, really be loved by you like this?"

"——Didn't I say that?" However, facing Nagasaki Su Shi's many words to describe his ugly side, Chen Qi smiled a little, but in the most gentle manner, he whispered word by word into Su Shi's ear:

"In front of me, Su Shi, you don't have to pretend to be yourself."

"I understand your truest side, and I can always accept it as long as you are willing to tell me."

"Whether you are the caring and considerate you or the jealous you, these are not 'pretense', they are your nature and part of you."

9 "What I like is never the incomplete Suyo-chan who only shows her gentle and considerate side in front of me, but the real Nagasaki Suyo."

Lin...yeah.

⒋Aqi has told me this many times, hasn’t he?

㈧But I have never understood. I have never really thought that as long as I show my true self and my true thoughts, I can really win over so many girls around Aqi who are better than me and love him more than me.

⑷Oh my god…what am I doing?

② Happiness is so within my reach, why did I go through so much trouble?

匛 is like an idiot.

０ "Aqi."

Five "Hmm? Ugh—"

However, after hearing what Su Shi was about to say, Chen Qi subconsciously looked at Su Shi again, but he watched Su Shi's cheek suddenly approach and leave a peck on his lips like a dragonfly touching the water.

Although this kiss was bland compared to the passion that Mu, Chuhua and Deng had given him before, this light kiss that combined all the shyness of a young girl did cause some ripples in Chen Qi's heart.

In particular, this innocent and shy kiss was brought by Nagasaki Motoyo, who had a mature figure like a college student.

This strong sense of contrast is almost the same as the feeling of Mu lying on Chen Qi's bed, wearing bold lace translucent pajamas.

For a moment, looking at the shy and willing Nagasaki Suyo in his arms, feeling the slender figure that Aine could never match, Chen Qi, who had been squeezed almost to the bone by Aine, had his heartbeat quickened again under the influence of alcohol.

Under the stimulation of alcohol, Chen Qi's hands unconsciously wrapped around Su Shi's soft waist.

However, Su Shi in his arms seemed to feel the aggressiveness of the man in front of him. After feeling the touch of his waist, he subconsciously let out a loud gasp.

However, the moment this gentle gasp echoed in the silent bedroom, the atmosphere changed.

For a moment, in the huge bedroom, the only sound besides the heartbeats of the two seemed to be the gradually increasing breathing sound. Su Shi could almost feel the heavy breath of Chen Qi in front of her hitting her face.

"I, I'm going home first. Ah Qi, I've remembered your reply."

It can be said that Nagasaki Suyo, who mustered up all her courage and made what she thought was the most daring attack, did not dare to go any further. Instead, she pushed Chen Qi away in panic and ran away like a lamb escaping from a wild man.

It was not until Su Shi left that Chen Qi, whose mentality had gradually calmed down, realized it belatedly and rubbed the remaining warmth on his lips. The shy escape of Su Shi echoed in his mind, and he couldn't help but smile: 7

"Su Shi... Today, you and Mu really brought me two surprises."

The one he thought was the most well-behaved and purest turned out to be the most daring and aggressive one.

He thought that Su Shi, who was the most comfortable and the most adaptable to such close contact, unexpectedly had very low defense.

However, these did not have much impact on Chen Qi now... Whether it was Su Shi or Xiao Mu, they would be his sooner or later, it was just a matter of order.

Now, I no longer need to worry about whether I can shoulder someone else's life.

Because now he can say for sure that he can afford it.

"It's just... Su Shi flirted with me like this and then ran away... Am I the one who is upset in the end?" Q

"Aine, Riki, and Deng should all be asleep, right? As for Mu..."

Unconsciously, Chen Qi's eyes turned to Mu, who was lying on his bed at the moment. He was stunned for a moment when he saw the girl's skin, which was still faintly visible under the translucent pajamas even in the darkness.

But the next second, a crisp slapping sound echoed in the bedroom.

"No, no, no, even though Mu has that intention, if he were to take advantage of Mu's unconsciousness... that would be taking advantage of someone's misfortune."

"As expected, it's better to wait until both parties are sober before discussing this kind of thing."

Chen Qi shook his head violently, driving these messy thoughts out of his mind. He wanted to find something to divert his attention, but unfortunately, he didn't know how to recite Buddhist scriptures, and now he couldn't even remember "emptiness is color".

"Let's go downstairs and get a drink... I hope this helps."

Chen Qi felt that his heart was broken today and he couldn't sleep in harmony with her. Otherwise, with his groggy head and low rationality, he might really become that beast.

……

"Ahhh...what did I say? What did I do?"

"That person just now was me? How could I say such a thing? Am I stupid?"

Nagasaki Suyo, who fled from the second floor in a panic, realized it belatedly and her cheeks turned red. She walked quickly up the stairs while chattering non-stop, but she had no way of getting the ambiguous scene out of her mind.

Just now, I seemed to see in Aqi's eyes... the feeling of wanting to eat her up!

Although Nagasaki Suyo had fantasized about this more than once, and even couldn't wait to hope that Aqi would really attack her, but when she really experienced that kind of atmosphere, she was so panicked that she even ran away and didn't dare to stay for long.

　After all, no matter what she thought in her heart, Nagasaki Suyo was just a girl with zero experience in love and zero experience in that aspect. No matter how good her figure was, it didn't mean that she had experience in this aspect.

No, it’s not just the atmosphere and my lack of experience!

It's mainly about my own mentality. Now I face Aqi with a "pure love" mentality! Instead of the disguise in the past!

Although it is said that Rikki Shiina is the one who cannot see her true self clearly, even though Rikki cannot see it clearly, the speed at which she accepts her true self is beyond the reach of others.

However, Su Shi was not as decisive as Li Xi. On the contrary, the real and fragile self was always a part that Su Shi could not bear to look at and was even afraid of being discovered.

"Little Suyo", who has never grown up since the day her parents divorced and her mother was too busy with work to feel loved, is the softest side hidden in the seemingly mature Nagasaki Suyo's heart.

"If I don't run, will Aqi do to me..."

"This is obviously what I want most, but why am I running?"

However, Nagasaki Suyo no longer had time to figure out this problem. Her face was blushing but filled with a happy smile. She just wanted to return to her home as soon as possible and roll around on the bed to get rid of the overflowing happiness in her heart that had nowhere to vent.

However, at the moment when Su Shi escaped from Chen Qi's house, Yao Lenai, who had already woken up and was lying on the sofa, quietly raised her head.

Did Sushi leave?

Then, Mu’s problem should have been resolved?

While Yao Le Nai was thinking, a slightly heavy footsteps sounded from upstairs, and under Yao Le Nai's eyes, which were particularly conspicuous in the darkness, Chen Qi's figure gradually appeared in front of her.

"Pray."

"Lena? You're awake."⑺
