Who says meal replacements can’t be eaten as meals?

Four p.m.

After spending the whole day accompanying Shoko at school, Ichinose Sakuya finally relaxed after taking the mocha coffee and matcha cream cake carefully prepared by Ms. Riki and placing them in the storage area of ​​the practice room.

It was cool to leave like Hailing, but it was really embarrassing to suddenly run back afterwards. Besides, Xiao Lenai was not very interested in seals, because the swimming ring was obviously matcha color.

Life is not easy, Sakuya sighed. Without her bass bag, she looked like an office worker who carried a laptop and took the subway for an hour to and from the company every day. Unfortunately, this was not her own spacious apartment, and there was no gentle and housekeeping Yamato Nadeshiko to massage her shoulders.

It seems that there is.

She placed her slender hands on her shoulders and massaged them carefully through her light grey school uniform with a bit of force. Her technique was professional, and after the sourness, there was a warm and comfortable feeling. Even though she knew it was a prank, Miss Sakuya still couldn't help but hum softly, and fell softly into the arms of the blonde girl.

The bad guy who attacked suddenly was naturally the long-prepared Sanjiao Chuhua, who was now staring at her with his lively and beautiful purple eyes that seemed to be able to speak, with a beauty and a charming smile.

"How strong is it?" Miss Chuhua asked softly, leaning against the ear of the village girl.

"It's very comfortable, but isn't it a little too close..." Ms. Sakuya's sensitive ears once again turned red as she made a suggestion in a low voice. No matter what, this posture seemed a little too ambiguous.

"Sakuya is very nervous. Her prismatic muscles and neck are particularly stiff." Miss Chuhua's hands kept moving. She covered the white neck and pressed lightly with two fingers, but her body quietly moved a distance away, just stuck in an intimate position that was just slightly over the line, and said gently.

"Ah, maybe a little. I've been running around with my bass on my back for the past two days..." Sakuya came back to his senses and unconsciously continued the topic, his body honestly enjoying the idol lady's private massage.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk." The first sound was to show shock, and the second and third sounds were to attract the attention of the people around him. Yutenji Wakumai shook his head in a rather exaggerated manner, stepped on the small round chair for drummers, and slid all the way to the keyboard area where Togawa Aie was. "Akiie, look at Hatsuko and Sakiko, they simply don't take us seriously, they are just short of openly flirting with us."

"Don't talk nonsense." Qiu Hui was slightly annoyed, tapped Miss Ruo Mai's head, and adjusted her glasses before she excused the two. "The relationship between Chuhua and Sakuya is just slightly close friends, so don't post the misunderstanding video between the two on the Internet again."

"Eh?" Miss Miao Meng pointed in disbelief at the duo of shoulder-mounted musical instruments in the distance. They were clearly girls!

Qiu Hui lowered her head and reviewed today's music score, ignoring the naughty Ruomai.

"Then, Xiao Qiuhui, do you want to experience the feeling of massage as well?" Miss Miao Meng, who did not receive a response, stood up bravely, blocked most of her sight and started the massage directly.

But I pressed the plump part slightly below the shoulder...

...and then he was beaten as expected.

"Ah, ah, ah, ah..." The drummer gave her speech with a sigh, covering her red and swollen cheeks.

"Senior Meow Meng, please have some ice water." Miss Sakuya, who suddenly became respectful for some reason, handed out the ice water with both hands like a waiter in a high-end restaurant, her eyes full of longing.

"Wow, Sakiko is still so nice to me. My love for you is worth it!" The purple-haired, black-hearted blogger gasped, his cheeks cooling down with emotion.

At this moment, Sankaku Hatsuka was comforting Miss Togawa, whose face suddenly blushed, for no apparent reason. The drummer and bassist also activated the rhythmic bond that was rarely seen, and their friendship was so deep that they were almost like close friends.

"Senior Meow Meng, you are amazing." Miss Sakuya, who saw everything the purple-haired senior did in the mirror, praised him generously. At this moment, Meow Meng's unreliable figure suddenly became great.

"Haha, I'm Meow Mengqin, but why are you praising me?" Yutenji Wakamugi, who was praised for no reason, was very happy with the rare compliment. Has Sakiko, who has always been picky about herself, finally realized her own brilliant personality charm?

"I admire Senior Meow Meng's behavior on the road to being a scumbag, so I wanted to learn from you and consult you on a few things." Miss Sakuya asked respectfully without changing her expression.

"?" Yutenji Wakamugi suspected that he might have been hallucinating because he was slapped too hard by Koakie, but he quickly reacted and showed an inquiring expression. "What exactly does Sakiko want to ask?"

"Teacher, I want to know, how were you able to calmly reach out and touch Akiie-senpai's breasts?" Ms. Sakuya looked serious and almost wanted to take out her notebook to record everything.

"Ahaha... Sakiko saw it." Miss Meow Meng looked back awkwardly at Togawa Akee who hadn't recovered yet, and spoke cautiously and tentatively. "Let's make a deal. How about I not edit Sakiko's silly scenes for a month and forget about it?"

"Are you still cutting these things?" Miss Sakuya frowned slightly, and her gray-blue eyes suddenly became sharp.

"Hahaha, no, I always keep my word. I said I won't cut it, so I won't cut it." Miss Meow Meng wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve, quickly diverting the attention of the silly village girl. "What did Sakiko say she wanted to ask?"

"Ah...ah..." Ms. Sakuya coughed lightly, looked around, and then awkwardly made the opening move. "It's like this, I have a friend."

"Is it the same friend as last time?" Miao Meng retreated tactically.

"Uh, yeah, anyway, it's not important." Sakuya was a little anxious and gestured with his hands.

"That's right. That's not important. Then, what does Sakuya...'s friend want to ask?" Miss Meow Meng asked cooperatively.

"That's right, Senior Meow Meng and Senior Qiu Hui should be in a relationship, right?" Miss Friend said with her index fingers lightly touching each other, her eyes twinkling.

"Of course, I'm devoted to Xiao Qiuhui!" Miss Miao Meng swore at the speed of light.

“Then Meow Mengqin should be the active one and very experienced, right?” Sakuya said in a low voice with a red face.

"Ha, I must be the top." Miao Meng answered confidently, with her hands on her hips. "So, your friend also has a girlfriend, right?"

"......Hmm." Sakuya, who had shrunk into a small mushroom, made a mosquito-like humming sound.

"Hiss..." Miss Miao Meng suddenly felt a little pain on her cheek, and finally the desire to gossip overcame her conscience. "Is it with Hatsuko?"

"Eh?" Sakuya was stunned.

Miss Miao Meng looked at the big golden retriever with disappointment. It was embarrassing that such an easy-to-win little country girl could be taken by someone else. "It's okay. Go on."

"Even though we're in love, I still feel a little troubled." Sakuya didn't hesitate and continued. "That's it, I feel that in this relationship, I'm probably the top."

Chapter 205 Broken Heart

Hold it in.

Hold it in with all your strength.

Yutenji Wakamugi has a high degree of confidence in her expression management, but no matter how hard she tries, she can't help but raise the corners of her mouth, and she presses it down with her fingers, visually creating a wavy smile like a cat's mouth.

"I'm probably the top..." Ichinose Sakuya said this and thought for two or three seconds before she continued to ask questions with one hand on her chin. After all, the senior Meow Meng, who could do things that crossed the line without any scruples, was much better than a girl like herself who had just made clear her inner thoughts.

“So I hope that Meow Meng-senpai can give me some advice, about his experience as the active party...or something like that.” Sakuya lowered his voice and said embarrassedly.

"Let me ask, how did you get along with your partner before you established a relationship?" Miao Meng tapped her chin with one hand and asked the most basic question.

"It's just like any other good friend sitting next to the desk. We eat and study together every day, occasionally play the piano and compose music, or take a nap together. Recently, we also talk about topics related to the future and ideals." Sakuya spread out his fingers little by little, recalling with a happy face.

"Stop! Click! I don't want to hear such a beautiful campus love story. The darkness in adults' hearts is about to be purified." Yutenji Wakamu, who was only 17 years old, raised her hands to cover her eyes, blocking the happiness that was overflowing from Sakiko's body. "So, who confessed first?"

"It seems that there was no confession, or both sides hinted at it quietly." Thinking back to the embarrassing lyrics and the feelings that Xiangzi expressed when she played the piano that day, Miss Sakuya blinked and reflected. "Originally, I just wanted to maintain a good friend relationship with her, but I might have been too provocative yesterday. I pecked her earlobe as a joke... and then..."

"And then?" After unscrewing the bottle cap, Miss Miao Meng, who felt regretful that she had no melon to eat, continued to evaluate the food while drinking ice water.

"Then she threw me to the ground... and kissed me." Sakuya pretended not to care, grabbing the hem of her school uniform skirt with both hands and spoke lightly.

Is this flirting?

The knowledgeable Miss Miao Meng also took a while to understand what was going on. Mutual crush, sitting at the same table, plus the natural temptation of a country girl, it was no wonder that the girl opposite couldn't bear it. It must have been very difficult for her to endure it.

"Sakiko, sometimes things like active and passive depend on talent." Miao Meng shook his head and said earnestly.

"But, I'm usually the one who asks her out, doesn't that count as taking the initiative in the relationship?" Miss Sakuya said weakly. It was obvious that Shoko's ears would often turn red and her heart would beat fast because of her actions, with a very cute troubled expression. In daily life, she was the one who took the initiative at least 80% of the time, so she should have some qualifications to be a top.

"Yes, but it's not enough." Miao Meng sighed and answered in a profound tone like a fortune teller.

"Please teach me, sir." The country girl said respectfully.

"If you want to be an attacker, you must first train this face." Miss Meow Meng pointed at the fair cheek that had just been slapped, and gave very unconvincing advice.

“Eh? I’m not a masochist like Meowmu-senpai who wouldn’t feel happy even if I got beaten.” Sakuya complained using honorifics.

"How rude! A meow-meng kiss is not good!" Miss Ruomai retorted fiercely. "I'm talking about shamelessness, understand? As long as you are sure that the other person has enough affection for you, just do it boldly even if you will be slapped, and give your body to desire. When you come to your senses, you can enjoy the beautiful sight of the other person covering his cheek with shyness."

“But sometimes I just want a hug, but the other person kisses me straight away...what should I do?” Miss Sakuya touched her lips foolishly and asked in confusion.

"Then just kiss back. Cheeks, earlobes, nose, eyelashes, and other parts of the body are all parts that can be attacked." Miss Miao Meng said with regret. The purity of being satisfied with just a hug is really too low.

“That…that’s too insane.” Miss Sakuya trembled as she imagined herself kissing Shoko’s eyelashes. The fair neck of the girl turned slightly red at a speed visible to the naked eye. She covered her face with her hands and hummed shyly.

"Sakiko, you are just too thin-skinned and easily shy. Maybe if you solve this shortcoming, you can succeed." Meow Meng scratched his chin and pondered the suggestion.

“>_<?” With a blush frozen on her face, the girl silently asked for countermeasures.

"I can only say that you need to interact with girls more and get along with them more before you can slowly adapt."

"That's all we have to do."

The somewhat lengthy conversation came to an end. Both parties tacitly did not mention their friendship. They just sighed at each other, each with their own worries.

Ichinose Sakuya tried her best to hide her relationship with Shoko, and also took the time to care about her other friends so that no one would be left out.

Yutenji Wakamugi was worried that Sakiko would come to the band less often after falling in love, and that it would not be appropriate to continue editing the interaction between the bassist and guitarist in the future.

"How about this, after the performance I will teach you my treasured complete set of tutorials and Miao Mengqin's paid content. Even if you only understand the basics, it will be enough for you to maintain your orthodox status of 80% attack." Miao Meng sighed and came up with a quick solution. He planned to share some basic physiological knowledge so that people would be prepared.

"Ruomai! Don't pass on your weird thoughts and obscene information to Sakuya-san." Togawa Aie, who was covering her chest, suddenly appeared, grabbed Mao Mao's ears angrily, and stopped her sternly.

Perhaps they were too absorbed in their chat, as the remaining two members of the band had already gathered around. Sanjiao Chuhua still had the sweet smile that only idols have, but the soft light in his purple eyes had dimmed a lot. He stared at the girl's rosy lips in a daze, not saying a word.

Sakuya, have you been dating Shoko? And they even kissed... in the few days I was away?

She pursed her lips, almost leaving teeth marks.

It would be nice if the school I transferred to was Hanaoka.

For the first time, Sanjiao Chuhua felt regretful about the life plan he had set for himself. Idol activities brought fame and resources that ordinary high school students could not have, but they also inevitably required sacrifices in their studies. Given the chaebol-level family education of the Toyokawa family and Xiaoxiang's personality, it was absolutely impossible for him to have a gay relationship in high school, let alone a girl of the same age and the same gender.

Something unexpected happened to Xiaoxiang that I didn't know about.

If only I could know it the first time... Even if it's just my delusion, greed, taking advantage of an opportunity, or insincerity, is there even a slight possibility that Toyokawa Shoko will fall in love with me like she fell in love with Sakuya?

An indescribable complex emotion was brewing in his chest, and Sanjiao Chuhua thought that this must be jealousy.

If Xiaoxiang is really happy, it would be better for me to remain friends...

But I am unwilling to accept it and my heart is broken to the extreme. No matter how good my disguise or how carefree I am, it cannot cover up the pain for a moment.

Sanjiao Chuhua held the maple leaf hair accessory in his sleeve pocket tightly, and tried hard to use his muscles to generate the anger that should be overflowing. The girl in front of him had just robbed him of his own destiny, and did not leave him even the slightest hope.

The hard plastic produced an equal reaction force as the palm was compressed, but surprisingly it was not painful. The hair tie, like its owner, stuck the resilient rubber band at the intersection of the skin and the edge, preferring to bear the pressure herself rather than hurt others.

In the end, she couldn't bear to destroy the gift from the girl.

...

"Have mercy, it was Sakiko who asked me how to play with a woman!" Miao Meng covered her ears and begged for mercy in a very exaggerated manner.

"You still dare to quibble." Showing the majesty of the head of the Discipline Committee, Togawa Aie mercilessly turned her wrist another 90 degrees.

Ignoring the gruesome scene of the cat being forced into the bathtub, Sakuya-san, who was inexplicably exposed, was also fidgeting. She must have had a brain injury to think that Meow Dream Senior was reliable. This was really embarrassing...

"Sakuya." Sankaku Hatsuka stood behind the girl and called softly, her tone as gentle and charming as ever.

"Xiao Chuhua, you heard it too..." Miss Sakuya turned around, lowered her head to search for her lost time machine, and said blankly.

"Your face is hot?" Sanjiao Chuhua had a look of pure concern on his face. He adjusted his eyes to look clear and ignorant. He put his hands on the girl's blushing cheeks. His fingers accidentally touched the corner of the girl's lips, and then separated immediately.

"..." After being publicly executed for asking a senior for dating experience and being suddenly attacked by an idol girl, Ichinose Sakuya just wanted to turn into an innocent little quail and hide his head in his wings.

"What does it mean to play with a woman?" Sanjiao Chuhua maintained eye contact, loosened his grip slightly, turned his hot palm over, and continued to help Miss Sakuya dissipate heat with the cool back of his hand.

“It…it means playing with girls.” Looking at the innocent and concerned eyes of the little idol, Ms. Sakuya glanced away and hummed timidly.

"Is that so? Then Sakuya can also ask me to play with you." Chuhua smiled brightly with her eyes slightly narrowed. She didn't dare to expose her pupils too much, otherwise she would not be able to hide the dark thoughts in her heart. "Even if I don't have much time, if Sakuya invites me today, I will try my best to make time."

He put his nose very close to the perfect face, which was completely different from Xiangzi's and was as charming as a moon. Ichinose Sakuya's face turned red like a thin-skinned persimmon that would break if hit.

I blushed because of such a strange thing, and I used the most obvious lie to deceive the kind and innocent Xiao Chuhua who came to comfort me. I was such a bad person... Even if Xiao Chuhua was looking forward to my invitation, I would have to refuse it decisively. If Xiao Chuhua said the word "playing with women" next time when I was recording an idol program, I would be a real sinner.

Woo woo, I'm so sorry. Xiao Chuhua clearly invited me with good intentions.

"Sorry, Chuhua, please ask me out next time... Next time, next time I will definitely make it up to you!" Miss Sakuya, who was in confusion, said some terrible lines that were very easy to be misunderstood.

"I see, Sakuya-chan is very busy." After all, she has to accompany Xiaoxiang...

Miss Chuhua took a half step back, removed her hands, and replied with a choked voice, more frustrated than ever before.

"Xiao Chuhua...are you crying?"

Cried?

me?

I didn't even notice that... It seems that I haven't practiced enough. I'll add two more sets of training content when I go back.

...

Sanjiao Chuhua cried, with tears and a smile in her eyes, her pupils still shining, but the tears were like shapeless lines, sliding down the corners of her eyes in an irregular manner, converging, intersecting at the apex, and dripping onto her pure white T-shirt.

Ichinose Sakuya felt that this was mostly her fault, and perhaps she was being a little self-indulgent, but she would rather it be this way - Xiao Chuhua was so sad and wronged that she cried because she rejected her invitation to go out and play together.

No matter how you look at it, Chuhua is not someone who would be so sad because of a simple rejection. She is gentle, powerful, and can give 120% of her energy to the things she believes in. Triangle Chuhua should be a stronger girl than herself.

No... it's not like that. I don't dislike Xiao Chuhua, but I'm already Xiangzi's girlfriend, and I can't let Xiao Chuhua's idol career be tarnished...

Miss Sakuya was at a loss for words. She wanted to keep Chuhua and talk to him, so she took the initiative to hold his hand.

"Xiao Chuhua, listen to me!"

"Well, what's wrong?" Sanjiao Chuhua, who was in a daze and just wanted to be closer to Xiangzi, stared blankly at the two people's palms pressed together. The warm and powerful hands and the newly shortened distance only made Miss Chuhua, who was more sad than heartbroken, give the most basic reaction.

"I like Xiao Chuhua...I like her from the bottom of my heart!" Ichinose Sakuya shouted loudly without caring about her image.
