After deciding to give up, he started to gain popularity

"Ah..." Iino Miko suddenly felt a little envious. The senior was so free and didn't even care... On the contrary, it seemed that she seemed to care too much?

"Yako-chan, why don't you give it a try? We've been together for so long, right? It's time to call each other by our names?" As if she saw the envy on the other's face, Fujiwara Chika began to encourage her.

"Eh hey hey? Me, me?" Iino Miko seemed very surprised, "Um... wouldn't that be inconvenient?"

The junior school girl seemed very reserved, and even though she said that, she kept looking in his direction, so Xiachuan Zou immediately understood what she meant. It was clear that she had some intention. This junior school girl was really easy to understand.

She probably thought that this behavior would make her appear to have a good relationship with her friends, and for her junior who had to celebrate her birthday alone, this was something that was completely difficult to refuse, so Natsukawa Zou understood and put on a gentle expression.

"No, I'm fine, if you think it's okay too..." His attitude towards such a simple school girl would naturally be gentler, which would of course be completely different from the attitude towards Fujiwara Chika.

253. Prank under the table

"Ah, then..." Iino Miko nodded and looked very happy, but she tried for a long time but couldn't take the initiative to speak first. In the end, Natsukawa Kanade had no choice but to demonstrate first.

"Yako? Are you okay?"

"Yes! I'm here!" Iino Miko suddenly sat up straight, and a blush began to appear on her face. Although she was prepared, it was indeed a bit embarrassing to be suddenly called by a boy...

It feels completely different from addressing Fujiwara-senpai, but... it's not annoying at all, in fact, it's the exact opposite...

Seeing that the other party was a little hesitant, Xia Chuan Kanade spoke up at the right time: "Don't be so nervous. It doesn't matter if you are not used to it. Just call me 'senior' as usual, or start with 'Xia Chuan senior'. It's up to you to call me whatever you want."

"No, well, at least I should return the gift..." Iino Miko shook her head. Although she was indeed very embarrassed, this was a rare opportunity to get closer to them and she didn't want to miss it.

"..." Xiachuan Zou's eyes were a little subtle.

Uh, as for a return gift... not really.

"..." The junior sister clenched her fist again, as if to encourage herself, "Then I will also... Zou... Senior?"

So Xiachuan Zou nodded and agreed very naturally.

Just like he said, he really didn't take these things too seriously, and because of his relationship with Mahiru Eriri and the others, he was called by his name more often, so he didn't feel too uncomfortable when he heard girls calling him like that.

But seeing him look so "indifferent", Iino Miko seemed a little disappointed. After all her efforts, it turned out to be no big deal in the eyes of the senior... It turned out that the senior was very adaptable.

However, it was still very shocking to her, because it was the first time she called another boy's name, so it was normal for her to be concerned.

Kaguya Shinomiya looked around and felt that the atmosphere was a little off. Shouldn't this be her home court?

The two people opposite her are obviously loyal members of her "Huizou Party", so why are they trying to get closer to the president? Look at her! Look at her, the real boss!

In short, Shinomiya Kaguya was unwilling to give in, and thought about saying something to attract attention, but someone was much faster than her.

"Okay, okay, it's my turn now! President, come and call out my name and see." Fujiwara Chika took the initiative to move forward. Idiots always act quickly, perhaps because they don't think much in their daily lives.

"You?" Xia Chuan Kanade glanced at her, thinking, why are you joining in the fun again? "Didn't you call me that before? And you yourself said that the name 'Fujiwara' sounds better..."

"Before was before, now is now, it's different!" Fujiwara Chika retorted, "And I haven't called the president's name yet! At least let me call him first and see."

"Then just shout, it doesn't matter..."

"It's not that it doesn't matter. If I had called out first... oh, I would have felt a little embarrassed." Fujiwara Chika shook her head, then twisted her body, as if she took it seriously.

"I don't understand what you're thinking..." Xiachuan Kanade sighed helplessly, but decided to do as she wished. It wasn't a big deal. "Chihua - is this okay?"

As a result, Fujiwara Chika still looked a little dissatisfied, "Wow! How perfunctory!"

"It's like 'as long as I say it quickly, it's done!'"

"No... I just called out a name. Do you want me to role-play and put in some emotions?" Xia Chuan Zou said unhappily. Isn't this guy's request too much?

"Well, it's not impossible?" Fujiwara Chika suddenly blinked, and then looked at him with an expectant expression, "Sure enough, this is better. After all, just calling out the name casually doesn't feel anything..."

"..."

So I said, what's the "feeling" of just calling out a name? It's not like I'm a voice actor dubbing a character!

"I really don't understand you..." Xia Chuan Zou first complained, then took a deep breath and slowly uttered a few words, "Qianhua, actually I..."

This time he really used emotion, the kind of tone that was so sickening that even he himself felt nauseous when he heard it.

"Eh? W-what…" You could tell that this guy was a little uncomfortable, and he shrank his neck and stepped back a little.

So Natsukawa Kanade decisively said the rest of the words: "Actually, I... have always thought you were an idiot."

After saying this with a serious expression, he felt much better when he saw the other person's expression change from being a little "awkward", then confused, and finally seemed a little ashamed and annoyed.

You bring in emotions, right? But you don't say what kind of emotions.

Fujiwara Chika was still glaring at him, her cheeks puffed up, and she was about to become as angry as a rolling ball beast. If she hadn't been sitting too far away from him, she would probably have pounced on him and bit him.

But he had finally managed to deal with her, so he didn't care what would happen next. He simply chose to avert his gaze and ignore her. They were still in the library anyway, and all she could do now was to "stare at him to death."

"Okay, let's continue studying." He was about to say this, but he found that Miss Kaguya beside him was pursing her lips, looking at him with a somewhat resentful look, her mouth opening and closing, as if saying something like "What about me?"

"..."

So you want to join in the fun too?

Natsukawa Kanade was silent for a moment, thinking that this was probably the case of what is worrying more than the lack of wealth than the inequality. He didn't expect that Kaguya, who was usually so elegant and proper, would want to join in the fun at this time. Could it be that she felt unwilling to be excluded?

So he looked at the other person and very considerately asked in advance: "What's wrong, Kaguya?"

"No, nothing..." Shinomiya Kaguya shook her head slightly, then opened her red lips slightly, "I just feel... it seems that I have never called the president's name, and I have always used the title of 'President'..."

If you think about it carefully, not only has she never called the president by his name, she has even rarely called him by his last name. She only called him "Natsukawa Kanade" or "Natsukawa-san" once or twice when they first met, and after that she has always called him "President".

Obviously, no matter how you look at it, the relationship between her and the president is very close, and everyone is saying that they are the most suitable couple in the academy. If they knew that not only did they not have an exclusive and intimate name for each other, and they didn't even call each other by their names, wouldn't people mistakenly think that their relationship was not that good?

It is inevitable that other guys will misunderstand me and think that I can get the president back!

"So I want to try calling out the president's name... Is that okay?"

"..."

You've said that, so what else can he say? If he complains about something else, it will seem like he can't read the atmosphere.

"Of course, you can call me whatever you want." Xia Chuan Kanade shrugged. The girls in their student union were too thin-skinned. They would care about such things for a long time. Unlike the seniors, they would just call him "Paramecium-kun", "Junior-kun", "Scumbag-kun" and so on without caring about his feelings at all. They were obviously much bolder than them.

"Then... Play?" Kaguya Shinomiya tilted her head slightly, her expression looking very gentle.

But don't be fooled by her seemingly open and confident appearance. In fact, the back of her hand was almost swollen from being pinched by the other hand. Otherwise, she would not be able to calm down at all.

Say it, say it out! In this way, even the president will understand her hint, right? Then she will start to respond to her... Start by changing the name, and then can't help but confide in each other... Of course, the president must say it first, and then she will agree with an attitude of "I can't do anything about you, since the president has to ask me"... Ah! It's better for the child to say more, so that she and the president will appear to be in love and won't allow others to interfere. Let Xiao Ai think about the rest...

Compared to her brainstorming, the situation of Natsukawa Kanade on the opposite side was much simpler. After hearing the young lady calling him like that, although he didn't think it was a big deal at first, looking at Kaguya's shy expression at the moment, an inexplicable feeling surged in his heart.

It's mainly boys. When facing a girl they already like, seeing her being so shy and cute, and calling your name softly, your heart will inevitably be moved. Otherwise, how can you say that she is the easiest creature to conquer?

After the two of them stopped talking, the atmosphere on the scene fell silent. Even Fujiwara Chika, who was the most active, looked at Shinomiya Kaguya and then at Natsukawa Kanade, nodded thoughtfully, and then stared at the ceiling in a daze with her chin in her hand.

After no one took the initiative to bring up the topic, the study session finally got back on track, and several people began to review at their own pace.

After a long period of peace, Xiachuan Zou suddenly stopped writing because he felt a restless foot shaking under the table, sometimes stepping on his instep, sometimes rubbing on his calf, playing pranks all the time.

"..."

Needless to say, it must be this Fujiwara Chika who is causing trouble!

Kaguya is a dignified person, it is impossible for her to do such a rude thing, especially since her position does not match the standard. As for the junior schoolmate sitting in front of him, it is even more impossible. She is a good child who is listening to music and doing her homework seriously. She does not look like she is doing anything naughty. Only Fujiwara Chika is pretending to sleep on the table, but she is actually distracted by controlling her feet under the table and playing a prank!

So Xiachuan Zou raised his eyebrows, then moved his body back a little, hoping that this would make it out of the other party's reach, but it seemed to be useless. He couldn't even feel the other party's hesitation, and he still maintained an inexplicable regular movement and began to invade his territory.

"..."

Xiachuan Zou's face suddenly became dark, he felt that his tolerance seemed to make him easy to bully. He thought that he couldn't retreat like this anymore, sometimes he had to choose to fight back!

So he took advantage of the opportunity when the other party was shaking, stretched out his hand and grabbed the calf, and then stayed there motionless.

He was even too lazy to look up at the other person's expression, which was nothing more than an expression of shame and begging for mercy after some small movements were noticed. But he didn't care at all. He wanted to punish the other person with the attitude of "at least make you uncomfortable for a while".

After a while, when he had completely solved the problem at hand, Natsukawa Kanade finally raised his head slightly, wanting to observe Fujiwara Chika's current condition. He found that she was still lying on the table, her body rising and falling in a rhythmic manner, as if she had taken a nap.

"..."

Tsk, I have to say this guy is quite courageous. He has been holding my calf and still hasn't said a word. Doesn't he need to use a lot of strength to stretch it out like this?

But even though he didn't understand the reason, he wasn't ready to let go. He felt that since this girl seemed to want to endure it and act as if nothing had happened, he couldn't do as she wished. He had to go back and do something bad to let her see - he wasn't someone who could be easily talked to!

So after tightly grasping the pen in his hand, he began to use his other hand. He first slowly reached under the table without disturbing others, then found the right position to take off the other person's indoor shoes, and then used the pen cap to press against the other person's sole.

He hadn't made any complete move yet, looking at Fujiwara Chika, hoping that she would finally react, apologize and beg for mercy, but this girl still looked indifferent, and it seemed like she was about to start to hold on.

"..."

It seems that he won't cry until he sees the coffin. Maybe he thinks he won't really do it? Xia Chuanzo wondered.

Originally, he really just wanted to threaten her, but seeing that she was not afraid at all, he felt as if he was being looked down upon. How could he tolerate this?

Anyway, this guy had played all sorts of pranks on him before, like touching his abs like a nympho... so there was nothing wrong with him just tickling the soles of his feet a little and getting some resistance, right?

Thinking of this, he did as he was told, and began to exert a little force on his hand, letting the pen cap slowly move across the other person's soles...

I thought she would definitely react to this, but Fujiwara Chika didn't move at all. However, Iino Miko, who had been keeping her head down beside her, suddenly let out a small exclamation and made a strange sound.

"Um..."

Xia Chuan Zou: “…”

what?

254. After school cosplay

Natsukawa Kanade subconsciously felt that he had seen and heard it wrong. Why did the voice seem to come from Iino Miko?

Although the sound was indeed a little small, his sense of direction was correct, so he subconsciously poked it again with a little force.

“Mmm…”

Then, he saw his junior sister put out her hand to cover her mouth, then raised her head slightly, with a big blush on her face, and looked at him with a pleading look.

"..."

Good, now it was confirmed, he really wasn't hallucinating, he was holding onto the leg of this junior high school girl...

So why is this happening?!

But now he didn't have time to think too much, as it was an extremely quiet environment. The sudden two shouts had already attracted the attention of the people around him. Even Fujiwara Chika, who seemed to be dozing off, had woken up, rubbed her eyes and asked Iino Miko.

"What's wrong, Miko-chan?"

"No, nothing..." Iino Miko quickly shook her head, but her expression seemed very flustered.

But in fact, there is someone who is more panicked than her now - naturally, it is Natsukawa Kanade who has not escaped.

He originally thought that it was Fujiwara Chika who was doing evil under the table and that's why he wanted to fight back, but he ended up fighting back against his schoolmate for no apparent reason!

But in this case, if he said that he was acting in "self-defense", would people still believe him? He might be considered harassment, right? Besides, he was a little confused now. He didn't even think that the foot belonged to the school girl before he confirmed it. Although he was panicking, the only thing he could do was to pray that the other party would not talk nonsense... or even tell the truth!

Fortunately, although Iino Miko was flustered and looked very suspicious, what she said was well thought out and could be easily fooled.

"I just accidentally bumped into the table leg when I was swinging my feet! It hurts a little bit... so I couldn't help but yell out... I'm sorry to bother you all!"

"Oh, I see..." Fujiwara Chika nodded, then yawned deeply, "If you feel any pain, you can go to the health room."

After saying this, she laid down on the table again and tried to stretch herself. It was obvious that she was not fully awake yet.

As for Shinomiya Kaguya next to her, she had also retracted her gaze. After all, there were others who expressed their concern for her junior, so there was no need for her to make any unnecessary moves. Unless it was related to the president, she didn't really want to play the role of such a "warm-hearted sister".

Seeing that the situation was fooled, not only did Iino Miko breathe a sigh of relief, but Natsukawa Kanade also finally let go of her hanging heart. However, she soon received a strong gaze from her schoolmate again.

It was a very complicated feeling, mostly shame and anger, but also a kind of begging for mercy, as if saying something like "Please don't tease me in a place like this"...

Natsukawa Zou suddenly realized that he seemed to be still holding the other person's legs, so he quickly let go and gave her an apologetic look.

He didn't know whether the other party could understand him, but in this situation he could only give him a look. However, after being freed, Iino Miko didn't even look at him again. Not only did she sit back a little, but she also kept her head down the whole time, looking very angry.

"..."

He must be angry. It's impossible not to be angry in this situation, Xiachuan Zou sighed in his heart.

He was too panicked to think much just now, but now that he had started brainstorming, he immediately understood the truth of the matter - the other party must have accidentally rubbed against him while shaking her feet while listening to music, and then he thought it was Fujiwara Chika playing a prank, so he punished her without thinking, but ended up causing such a misunderstanding.

But can I really explain this? Because it's like saying in front of the other person that he and Fujiwara Chika are so close that they can play around so intimately in private, maybe he will be misunderstood... No, I still have to explain it, right? Because even if it's like this, at least it's better than being considered a perverted senior who sexually harasses a junior.
