Nagasaki Suyo sighed helplessly, and then asked her: "Mu-chan, who said that happiness can't be born from pain?"
Ruoye Mu: "..."
Nagasaki Suyo finished eating the remaining cucumber, put the bamboo stick aside, raised her fingers, and carefully tidied up Wakaba Mu's slightly messy hair.
At the same time, she spoke softly, "I have a mother who loves me, and a partner who I like so much that I want to give him my all. I have a partner with whom I have a good relationship and can sleep in the same room, and I also have a close friend who cares about me in a clumsy way... This is who I am now."
"My loving mother is too busy with work to come home, so our home is always lonely and quiet... Although I am in pain, I still feel happy."
"The boy I love so much, we can't be together because he likes someone else, and my feelings are not reciprocated... Although it hurts, as long as he exists in my world, this happiness will never disappear."
"We were close friends, but we couldn't be honest with each other because of our emotional conflicts. I felt that I was very ugly because I was full of jealousy... Although it was painful, every day I spent with her and them, I couldn't help but smile."
"Also, you're not good at talking, but you have to use this method to care about your best friend."
Facing the pale golden light that seemed to be solidified yet slightly swaying.
Nagasaki Suyo smiled as if she couldn't do anything to her, pressed Wakaba Mu's head against her chest, gently stroked her long hair, and then hugged her tightly.
The gentle heartbeat and voice, on the suddenly still water, were clearly heard by the doll girl.
"Although this is painful, but... Mu-chan is also one of my happiness."
"If you are happy, I will be happy too. If you are sad, I will be sad too."
"I'm not sure what you want to do for me, but I can probably guess - Mutsu-chan, you want to make some kind of sacrifice to make me happy, right? Like using your body as a condition to seduce Ming Hai and let him be with me without telling Xiangzi-chan or something like that."
Ruoye Mu: "Su Shi, I..."
I didn't expect to sacrifice so much. I was just planning to be a wingman, why did you just pack me up and send me out...
"No need to say it!"
Su Shi's sudden tightening of her hands made her swallow back all the words she hadn't said yet. She also felt as if her face was buried in two big pillows and her breathing began to suffocate.
"The feelings gained by sacrificing a friend are just pure pain, and no happiness will be born... Well, Mu-chan doesn't have someone she likes, so you probably can't understand, right?"
Nagasaki Suyo smiled, her tone full of pity and doting, as well as an unquestionable stubbornness.
"Maybe one day, I will use despicable means to snatch Ming Hai away from Xiangzi... Maybe one day, even if I can't have him alone, as long as he can have a few minutes of time belonging to me, I can feel extremely satisfied and happy."
"But no matter what, I will never rely on hurting my friends to gain my own happiness! Such false feelings are not what I want to obtain."
"..."
If Ye Mu recalled the day of the stalking date, he seemed to have indeed shown some feelings of grievance, right?
Didn't Su Shi consider me as a friend at that time?
...a little hurt.
"Besides, Ming Hai wouldn't agree to something like this, right?"
Nagasaki Suyo finally let go of Wakaba Mutsu, looked at her stiff expression as if she was almost suffocated as she took a deep breath, and said with a smile as usual: "If you had seduced him and he was willing to betray Xiangzi and have multiple relationships, I wouldn't have been disappointed until now."
After all, she was still very confident about her figure - even if Wakaba Mu was as cute as a doll, with slender limbs, fair skin, and was irresistible when played with (referring to cheeks) - based on her understanding of Ming Hai, the attraction might not be as great as when she was dressed in cool clothes and went to his house to clean.
He is not a lolita complex, but a breasts alien.
Nagasaki Suyo was basically certain of this, so she didn't think that the beauty trap that had failed for her could succeed for her best friend with an average figure.
"He...did refuse. And he pinched my cheek."
Wakaba Mutsu took a deep breath and answered while silently keeping a distance from Nagasaki Suyo, fearing that he would be suffocated by her embrace again.
"As expected, I have to punish you a little then."
Snapped!
She reached out her hand, tapped Ruoye Mu's forehead, and her eyes narrowed into a pair of soft crescents.
"Don't have those kinds of thoughts again, okay? To me, Mu-chan is the most important friend, and I don't need this kind of love that comes from self-sacrificing pity."
"If you dare to look down on me like this, I'll flick your forehead next time!"
Ruo Yemu was unable to react and just stared blankly at her clear and focused eyes, his mind in a mess and he didn't know what to say.
…Come to think of it, wasn’t that hug just now a punishment?
Only after he heard the sound of her kicking up water again did Ruo Yemu slowly come to his senses and unconsciously touched the round and cold rocks below.
Incredibly, all the troubles that were as complicated and difficult to resolve as tangled headphone wires gradually melted away under Su Shi's cheerful and bright smile, and in the end, only a sense of peaceful tranquility and relaxation remained, which made her curl the corners of her mouth slightly unconsciously.
"Thank you, Sushi."
Ruoye Mu sat back next to Su Shi, leaning gently on her shoulder, and tried to put his feet into the water, kicking up some water tentatively.
Snap!
Cold water droplets dripped from between the pearly, round and white toes. The slender calves glowed with a crystal luster and were illuminated by the hazy moonlight.
She looked at the water plants that hooked around her feet with curiosity. Before she could enjoy them like a little girl, she heard a laughing voice beside her.
"Don't be so quick to thank me, Mu-chan. I have something I want to ask of you."
"?"
Under Wakaba Mutsu's puzzled gaze, Nagasaki Suyo slowly walked down the reef, letting the cold stream water cover her knees, and slowly moved towards the center of the stream.
There seemed to be some unclear and deep meaning hidden in that gentle and brilliant smile.
"Please call Xiangzi-chan over here. I want to talk to her alone."

Volume 138: Chapter Chapter Falling into the Water
After being the owner of a barbecue restaurant for nearly an hour, even Ming Hai was almost a little tired.
Just before he left the grill, he was about to go find his girlfriend for a private feeding show that couldn't be seen by everyone.
But he found that someone had already got ahead of him and quietly found Toyokawa Shoko.
"Xiangzi, Su Shi wants to talk to you alone about something."
There was no shelter around, but fortunately it was dark, so as long as he could find the right blind spot, it was not difficult to escape the observation of the two girls who had no anti-reconnaissance technology.
So, relying on the experience of hiding that he had accumulated from working part-time in his previous life, Ming Hai slowed down his breathing, narrowed his sight, and stood straight like a tree stump in the darkness not far away, eavesdropping openly.
——Oh, not eavesdropping.
He just happened to pass by, and in order not to disturb the girls' conversation, he blended into the background very gentlemanly.
"Su Shi? Come to think of it, I haven't seen her in a while."
"Well, she is by the stream, behind a big rock..."
"Then I'll go over first. Can you please tell Ming Hai for me?"
"...Su Shi said that we can't tell anyone else."
"Not even Narumi? Really, what on earth does she want to do…"
"Xiangzi, I think she has no ill intentions..."
"I know. After all, she is your best friend. Now that I think about it, it was you two who followed Ming Hai and I on our date. It's rare to have such a close relationship with friends."
"Xiangzi, I..."
"Don't worry, I was just joking. I don't mean to be mean to you. Mu, you must cherish this friend who only belongs to you, okay?"
"……Um."
The conversation between childhood sweethearts ended here. Toyokawa Shoko waved her hand calmly and generously, then took a big step forward, heading towards the place where the invitation was made with a fighting spirit.
——She didn’t know what Su Shi was going to whisper to her.
But since it is a matter between the two of them, it must be related to a young man full of sin... In this case, Toyokawa Shoko has absolutely no reason to escape.
Regardless of whether there are traps or puzzles ahead, she will face them calmly as "the future wife of Narumi and the future mistress of the Suga family."
"..."
If Ye Mu stood there silently, watching the sky-blue figure gradually swallowed by the darkness, the uneasiness in his heart was like a fist hanging at his side, floating in and out of control.
In the end, she did not break the promise she made to her friend and turned away in the opposite direction of the stream.
——Then she saw Ming Hai standing in the shadows, showing his big white teeth at her.
"Oh, what a coincidence."
"..."
If Ye Mu's facial muscles were more active, she would definitely have a look of as if she had seen a ghost.
Even so, the doll girl was still frightened by him and took a step back. Her heartbeat quickened a little under her chest, which was not rising or falling clearly. She felt nervous as if she had been caught doing something bad.
Ming Hai walked up to her with a smile, and waited very gently for her to calm down before asking him a question.
"You, when did you come?"
"I'm here to look for Xiangzi, too. I'm about a second behind you, right?"
"Deliberately eavesdropping?"
"I'm just respecting your conversation time. Who told you not to see me? Next time when you whisper, remember to pay more attention to your surroundings."
"This is sophistry. If Xiangzi knew, he would also say that you were eavesdropping."
Wakaba Mutsu stared at him intently, trying to make him reflect on his actions.
"She won't be mad at me anyway, so just say it."
Ming Hai spread his hands like a rogue, raised his eyebrows, and gave Wakaba Mutsu an ill-intentioned smile.
"And if I really want to say it - Ruoye-san, you don't want Su Shi to know that I heard everything she asked you to keep secret, right?"
Ruoye Mu: "..."
The doll girl froze in place for a moment, and then made what was probably the most varied expression in her life.
——She puffed up her cheeks and glared at him angrily with dissatisfaction and grievance, like a little girl who had been bullied.
And Ming Hai in front of her, like a villain who stole a little girl's lollipop, couldn't help but chuckle with pleasure, deliberately using the same tone as Xiangzi just now.
"Don't be angry, I was just joking~"
As he said this, he raised his hand and pinched her cheek, which seemed to be even softer than before. It felt like he was pinching a ball of snow-white daifuku.
——For some things, the difference is only between zero times and countless times.
Since he has already taken action just now, he will not care about the issue of distance now. As long as the other party does not show obvious disgust, he will do whatever he wants.
"..."
Although she tried her best to express her dissatisfaction, when his fingers clamped her cheeks without her permission and applied a little force, she felt a slightly hot and bright touch on her skin which was more sensitive than that of ordinary people.
Ruo Ye Mu really didn't have much thought of resistance or disgust.
She just couldn't help but open her eyes wide, staring blankly at the relaxed smile on the boy's face.
After a moment, as if deliberately not caring about something, he moved his eyes, which were shining with rippling light, to the ground, and obediently maintained his original posture, almost forgetting that he was even angry.
It was just like a ferret being grabbed by the neck.
When he withdrew his fingers, it seemed as if a part of his body suddenly cooled down, and an inexplicable feeling of loss surged into his heart.
Ruo Ye Mu lowered his eyes even more unprepared, and habitually protected himself with a shell of silence, trying to cope with his own complicated and confusing thoughts with an unchanging attitude.
"Okay, I won't bully you anymore. There's some freshly grilled corn and green peppers over there on the grill. Go eat them if you're hungry."
Ming Hai waved his hand, said a simple goodbye, and then chased in the direction where Xiangzi left.
Ruoye Mu suddenly came to his senses and subconsciously grabbed the corner of his clothes.
"wait wait wait!"
Ming Hai quickly stopped to prevent the girl from falling to the ground. "What's wrong? Is there anything else?"
Ruoye Mu looked into his eyes seriously: "You can't go over there."
"why?"
Ruoye Mu was very persistent, and the fingers that pinched the corner of his clothes turned white with force: "Su Shi... I don't want you to eavesdrop."
"I've already eavesdropped, so why should I care whether she wants it or not?" Ming Hai said with a smile, and met her slightly surprised eyes, his gaze gradually became serious, "Before respecting women's privacy, I have to ensure their safety first... Don't worry, as long as you are not discovered, it is not a crime. Even if you are accidentally discovered, I will not give you away."
