This is not the date I wanted.

"Wait for me, Kotori!!!"

At this time, Shidou's roar came from the living room, and he caught up with Kotori with a burst of violent footsteps. Before she handed the envelope to Mengyue, he stopped Kotori first.

“Ah—Onii-chan, what are you doing? No, we are brother and sister!”

"Stop shouting things that can lead to misunderstandings and give me back the letter!"

“Humph, even if it’s Onii-chan’s request, I won’t back down. Watch out! The ultimate move – Sister Cross Lock!”

“Ah—it hurts, it hurts! Kotori, you actually did this to your brother—it hurts, it hurts!”

"Hmph, bed skills are a lady's hobby. You are too naive, Shidou."

Kotori laughed with great disdain.

"When did you change into a black headband?! -Ah, it hurts, it hurts!"

"Okay, Sister Mengyue, take this opportunity... to accept that love letter."

"You two siblings have such a good relationship..."

Looking at Kotori who was pinning Shidou down in the hallway with her skilled floor skills, Meng Yue couldn't help but sigh and complain, picking up the envelope on the ground.

"Is this a love letter..."

Before Mengyue could open the package, the Yami sisters suddenly squeezed over.

"Love letter? My fellow man, you actually took advantage of me not paying attention and seduced my belongings! You thieving cat!!"

"Excited. Mengyue, you actually ran away. Xixian misjudged you!"

"What nonsense are you talking about..."

Looking at the indignant Yakuya and Yui, Mengyue sighed silently, opened the envelope of the love letter and spread out the letter paper.

"Mengyue, wait——"

"...Shidou."

After briefly glancing at the contents of the letter, Meng Yue calmly asked the question.

"When did you change your name to Tsukimichi Makoto?"

"Haha, it's a long story..."

——————————————I am the dividing line for starting dinner——————————————

"So, Shidou, you accepted a love consultation from a junior who admired you, gave him a bunch of advice, and then after this and that, you found out that the guy had a crush on me, and helped him pass the love letter to me?"

At the dinner table, Meng Yue, who had sorted out the whole cause and effect, summarized it and confirmed it with Shidao.

"……Yes."

Shidou nodded.

"Then, after returning home, Kotori took my love letter away and deliberately used those suggestive lines to mislead me, right?"

Mengyue turned her gaze to Qinli.

"I'm sorry~ Sister Mengyue~ Hehe☆."

After changing back into her white headband, Kotori blinked her big eyes, trying to get away with it by being cute.

"I want to see Sister Mengyue's embarrassed expression when she mistakenly thought she received a love letter from her brother - it hurts!"

Mengyue snapped her fingers at Qinli on the forehead in annoyance.

"With your rookie debut level manzai performance just now, it's not even good enough to make me laugh. And what's so embarrassing about Shidou's love letter?"

"Yes, yes..."

Although Shidao was somewhat relieved that Mengyue did not misunderstand this, her calm attitude also made him, as a man, feel a little frustrated.

"Don't worry about it, Onii-chan."

Kotori, who was standing by, touched his forehead with one hand and patted his shoulder with the other to comfort him.

Long-winded.

"Kuku - let me take a peek. What... Hello, Ryogi-senpai. I'm Tsukimichi Shinko from Class 2, Grade . For you who have so many admirers, you may have forgotten my existence a long time ago. But I will never forget the day I met you..."

"Hey, don't just read someone else's love letter out loud in public."

Mengyue snatched the love letter back from Yakushi's hand.

"Ah, what's wrong, my compatriot? What are you hiding? Are you embarrassed because you can't stand the love confession in the love letter?"

Yakushi teased with a smirk on his face.

"A question of etiquette. How would you feel if a love letter you wrote to someone else was read out in public?"

"…Tsk, so stingy."

Yakushi grumbled a little and complained, but didn't insist.

"One more bowl! Shidou."

While Mengyue and the others were chatting, Tohka had already finished a large bowl of rice.

"Okay, wait a moment Tohka."

After handing the empty bowl to Shidou, Tohka took this opportunity to ask Mengyue a question.

"By the way, Mengyue, what did the love letter say?"

"Didn't you hear our conversation just now... Never mind."

Seeing that Tohka, unlike Yakuya, was simply expressing curiosity, Mengyue sighed in compromise and briefly summarized the contents of the love letter.

"Well... to put it simply, a junior whom I helped before developed a crush on me, so he wrote this letter to confess his feelings to me and wanted me to give him a chance to show his abilities."

"Sneak a peek. The handwriting is quite cute."

Mengyue turned around and saw Xixian quickly retracting her head.

"Well, that's what happened."

"Ah, it's really Meng Yue-chan! Reliable, gentle and handsome! He must be a popular figure among both boys and girls at school!"

"So amazing... Miss Mengyue..."

Shion opened her eyes wide, looking at Mengyue with eyes full of longing.

"Well~ I feel a little embarrassed to be praised like this."

Meng Yue scratched her cheek.

"Then, after receiving this love letter, what are you going to do with it, Sister Mengyue."

"Well, well..."

"Are you going on a date?"

"What the—hot!"

Frightened by Tohka's surprising answer, Shidou accidentally pressed the hot rice on the spoon onto his wrist.

"Wow! Are you okay, Shidou?!"

"Onii-chan, what are you doing?!"

"Proposal. Go to the toilet and flush the water to cool it down."

"Yakuya, Yoshino, help me get the bandages and burn medicine from the cabinet!"

"Good, good."

"I, I understand!"

……

"Okay, emergency treatment is complete. It shouldn't be a big deal. Be careful, Shidao."

"Sorry. My mind wandered a little."

Looking at the bandage on his hand, Shidou apologized in shame. Although Kotori's flame can help him repair those fatal injuries, it will not have any reaction to such insignificant burns.

However, compared to this, he is more concerned about something else now.

"Then, Mengyue, how do you plan to reply to Yuedao's love letter?"

"Well... well..."

Meng Yue thought for a moment and turned his gaze to Shixiang.

"Tohka, why did you just mention the date?"

"Well... because the person who wrote this love letter said that he liked Meng Yue and wanted to give him a chance to show his talents?"

Tohka tilted her head and answered as a matter of course.

"Isn't that an invitation for a date?"

"Throat... I see, it can be understood this way..."

After hearing what Tohka said, Mengyue opened the love letter again.

(——My eyes will always involuntarily follow your figure...)

Looking at the words on the letter, Mengyue couldn't help but think deeply.

"Meng Yue?"

For some reason, Shidou felt a sense of foreboding.

"Well, whether to date or not is another matter. There's no problem with meeting up first."

"--ha!?"

PS: The world is facing challenges, and I am watching the epic news. I have been staying at home for almost two or three months, and I feel like I am about to get a sudden realization of the Zen of staying at home. (Refers to lying in bed and doing nothing all day.)

Shidao Juniors (V)

==============================

The Baquan statue in front of Tiangong Station at 9:40 am on weekends.

Yue Dao Zhenxing waited quietly beside the stone statue, feeling nervous and a little excited.

The reason is simple. Today is the day of his first date with the goddess he secretly loves, Liang Yi Meng Yue.

To be honest, when Zhenxing received the invitation call from Liangyi Mengyue the night before, he even doubted whether he was dreaming.

You know, when he went to Gokawa Shido, he was more like someone who is sick and doesn't see a doctor but prays to the gods and Buddhas, and tries all kinds of treatments. Especially after writing that cheesy love letter and giving it to Shido, he calmed down and felt so ashamed that he wanted to find a hole in the ground to hide in and act like an ostrich.

However, unexpectedly, not only did the matter not fall through, but I was able to successfully contact Mengyue.

"As expected of you, Gokawa-senpai!"

Whenever he thought of this, Makoto couldn't help but feel full of respect and admiration for Shidao.

Then today, he was so excited that he almost suffered from insomnia like a primary school student on an autumn outing. After getting up early in the morning, dressing up, he arrived at the meeting place half an hour early.

"There are still... thirteen minutes? Senior Liang Yi hasn't arrived yet?"

Glancing at the time on the clock, Zhenxing felt a little uneasy. Although he knew that he had come too early, the waiting time was indeed a bit torturous.

"Hey! Miss, are you alone? Are you interested in having a cup of tea together?"

At this moment, two young men suddenly came over and spoke to Shinko.

"Uh-huh?"

Hearing what the two said, Zhenxing couldn't help but look around curiously. After confirming that there were no other women around, he pointed at himself in surprise and asked.

"Are you... talking to me?"

"Who else besides you?"

Seeing Shinko's reaction, the young men couldn't help but laugh.

"..."

Shinko felt a little unhappy. He was originally somewhat self-conscious about his short height and unmanly face, so he always wore men's casual clothes. He didn't expect that even so, he would be mistaken for a girl and hit on.

"I'm sorry you got the wrong answer, I'm a boy."
