In the third year of high school, I exchanged bodies with Yukinoshita

After taking the photo, Yuigahama Yui looked at Miura Yumiko's phone wallpaper, which was a photo of her and Hayama Hayato, and said, "Yumiko, this is..."

"This is a photo of Hayato and I taken a few days ago. Looks great, doesn't it?"

Yukinoshita Yukino felt a little envious as she listened to Miura Yumiko telling the story between her and Hayama Hayato.

The only messages Zuo Yu left in her phone were about the previous body swaps. Originally, Yukinoshita Yukino was dissatisfied with Zuo Yu's mysterious behavior.

Now she wants Zuo Yu to send her some messages in daily life, even if it is just good morning or good night with a scheduled time. Yukinoshita Yukino will also be happy for the messages sent by Zuo Yu.

Yes, it has never been such a long time since Yukinoshita Yukino exchanged bodies with Zuo Yu.

The longest time I've swapped bodies with Zuo Yu was only half a month, but this time it's almost been a whole month.

If Zuo Yu hadn't told her that the body swap would continue, Yukinoshita Yukino might have really thought that the body swap was over.

But now, even though she knows that there are still four more exchanges, even though she knows that the answer she holds will allow Zuo Yu to come to her world, Yukinoshita Yukino still misses Zuo Yu.

She missed the witty emails sent by Zuo Yu, missed the teasing words he would use about her behavior, and missed Zuo Yu's somewhat narcissistic remarks.

"Xiaoxue, what's wrong with you?"

Yuigahama Yui saw Yukino Yukinoshita suddenly froze beside her and asked with some concern. She knew that Yukinoshita Yukino's physical strength was not very good, and Yuigahama Yui suspected that Yukinoshita Yukino was not used to them walking such a long distance.

"I'm fine, just..."

"It's just a pity that I can't enjoy such a beautiful view with the boy you like. Am I right?"

"Ah."

"You can take a photo and send it to him. Aren't you two long-distance? Shouldn't you be used to sharing your life's happenings with each other?"

Yumiko Miura was a little puzzled. In her opinion, Yukinoshita Yukino won the boy she liked during their long-distance relationship, so how come she didn't even know how to share the beautiful things she saw with her boyfriend?

After hearing this, Yukinoshita Yukino had a new idea.

Even if Zuo Yu stopped messaging her, she could still take the initiative to leave him a message. They had originally agreed to share their daily lives with each other. So this is what long-distance couples do...

Only then did Yukinoshita Yukino realize that their previous practice of recording what happened to each other every day and showing it to each other was a very ambiguous behavior.

To outsiders, recording what happened during the day is just sharing it with others via email. When exchanging information, two people verbally describe what happened on the other side, which is just a long phone conversation...

No wonder my sister suspected that the email she received this morning was from her boyfriend...

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at the red leaves all over the sky, took a photo, and sent it to the ID of the barcode with a message attached, "It's beautiful here, I hope we can see it together next time."

Although it only had a psychological effect, Yukinoshita Yukino smiled slightly when sending the email, which made the surrounding scenery pale in comparison.

Yumiko Miura was shocked by the smile of Yukinoshita Yukino. Although Yukinoshita Yukino would occasionally smile, she had never made people feel that she was such a dazzling girl as today.

"I think... if you attach the photo you just took, maybe... the guy you like will drop everything and come to you right away."

Leave everything behind?

Yukinoshita Yukino kept repeating these words, she really wanted Zuo Yu to drop everything and come to her.

Can I satisfy her? Although Yukinoshita Yukino has found the answer that Zuo Yu told her, she is still a little unsatisfied.

After all, the answer was told to her by Zuo Yu, not found by her own ability.

Yukinoshita Yukino is still a little unsure about whether she can become Zuo Yu's family member.

After all, in her opinion, there are still mysteries about Zuo Yu.

If I can't fully understand Zuo Yu, am I qualified to be Zuo Yu's family member...

However, today, during this school trip, Yukinoshita Yukino felt that she had gained something. She solved a mystery about Zuo Yu when Miura Yumiko reminded her that she could send photos actively.

That's why Zuo Yu likes to travel alone... Actually, Zuo Yu likes to travel with his family, but for Zuo Yu, his family members are no longer around...

He chose to travel alone.

Zuo Yu doesn’t like traveling alone, but he has no one to share the beautiful scenery he sees while traveling, so he is forced to choose to travel alone.

.......

"How are the results?"

"Good news, I'm third."

The class was empty in the afternoon as everyone went to have dinner. The two of them chose to have others bring their own lunch. Zuo Yu and Fang Xuan were looking at their midterm exam results together.

"So what's the bad news?"

"The Sports Committee is fourth."

"Is this bad news for you?"

"Of course he did. He handed in my book. He didn't make the top three this time. What if the homeroom teacher gets angry and tears up the book? What then?"

"Then forget it. Let him buy you a new set. The old must go before the new can come."

"But I still like my original set, and since I only collected one book, I won't let him buy the whole set." Fang Xuan looked at the top of the report card, Zuo Yu was still the first, and he was a little dissatisfied. After all, if Zuo Yu was allowed to give them some leeway this time... and let them go, wouldn't the Sports Committee be able to make it into the top three?

Seeing that no one was around, Fang Xuan asked, "Can't you just not get first place? You're going to leave this world soon anyway."

Zuo Yu smiled smugly and said, "Why do you make me feel like I'm going to die? Besides, since I'm about to leave, I have to keep my first place."

"Have you told her your special secret? And about your parents..."

"No."

"Then you want me to tell her."

Fang Xuan relied on his understanding of Zuo Yu and knew that Zuo Yu must have other plans for not telling the girl about his own secrets. He was probably pinning his hopes on him. He wanted him to tell the girl about Zuo Yu's secrets so that he could achieve his goal.

Zuo Yu was very happy to see that his best friend understood him so well. "That's right. I just hope you can tell her my secret."

"So how much can I reveal about you to her at the parent-teacher conference this weekend?"

"Look at yourself. I believe you."

Chapter 162 Parents’ Meeting

In the blink of an eye, it was already the second day of the school trip.

At noon, Yukinoshita Yukino and her group sat together to eat lunch. Sitting next to them were Miura Yumiko and a few others.

Yuigahama Yui said with some regret: "The school trip is coming to an end this afternoon. Time really flies."

Hanyu Mie continued to follow the schedule and said, "Yes, each class will take a group photo this afternoon. Then we will take the bus back."

"But this is all because our school trip was so short, only two days. How could we possibly have enough fun?"

Yuigahama Yui pouted, still expressing dissatisfaction with the school trip which was only two days long.

Miura Yumiko saw through Yuigahama Yui's tricks; she simply wanted to spend some time alone with Hikigaya Hachiman. "I think you're tired of your time alone with Hikigaya ending so soon... But did you sneak out with Hikigaya for a late-night snack last night?"

"There's nothing I can do. The dinner arranged by the school is too small, and some of it is not enough...Aren't you going out with Ye Shan too?"

"How did you know?" Miura Yumiko was a little confused about Yuigahama Yui's knowledge of this matter. She had obviously left later than Yuigahama Yui and returned earlier than her. Logically, Yuigahama Yui should not have known about this matter. Could it be that... Miura Yumiko was about to ask a question when she was interrupted by Ebina Hina.

"Yeah, you two went out last night, leaving me alone in the bedroom guarding the empty room."

Although Yumiko Miura did not smell the answer she wanted, she also knew the answer... It must have been Hime Ebina who told the secret.

"Hina..."

Yukinoshita Yukino listened to the people around her arguing about how they had secretly gone out on a date last night, and her mood began to become awkward.

so envious.

She was very envious of Miura Yumiko and the others who were able to go out on dates with their boyfriends, and she recalled the relationship between her and Zuo Yu. From the perspective of ordinary people, perhaps the two of them left nothing in each other's lives, but Yukinoshita Yukino's heart was very clear that she was the only one who did not leave anything with Zuo Yu.

Zuo Yu left her so many things. It can be said that it was all thanks to Zuo Yu that she could have a pleasant lunch with her friends here. It was also thanks to Zuo Yu that she could have such an atmosphere during her school trip.

Otherwise, Yukinoshita Yukino thought that her school trip must have been spent alone. Instead of being spent in such a noisy environment...

"By the way, Yukino. Did you talk to your boyfriend on the phone last night?"

Yumiko Miura suddenly asked about Yukinoshita Yukino and the boyfriend she mentioned.

"No."

"Why? Didn't you take pictures and send them to him yesterday? If he didn't call you first, you should have called him first."

Yumiko Miura was a little confused. According to common sense, although Yukinoshita Yukino was not as close to her as she and Yuigahama Yui and could not meet the person she liked directly, Yukinoshita Yukino could also contact her boyfriend through phone calls or other means.

"He's very busy with his studies and probably doesn't have time to answer my call. I'm afraid of disturbing his studies. Also, if I call at night, it will disturb Kurohime Yuto, who's staying in the same hotel with me."

"why?"

"He doesn't get out of school until after ten o'clock, so if I call him, not to mention whether he's in the mood to listen to what happened after a tiring day, it will also disturb Heiji Yuto's rest."

Yukinoshita Yukino made excuses for not calling Zuo Yu at night. In fact, the fundamental reason was that she had no way to share with Zuo Yu in real time.

"I see. But... Yukino, you've already told us so much about that boy. Are you still unwilling to tell us his name? We always use pronouns to refer to him... It always feels a bit troublesome."

"I can't tell you now, but I will tell you when the time is right."

Yukinoshita Yukino has never told anyone here Zuo Yu's name.

Even though she knew that the person who could take Zuo Yu away was family, she still felt deep down that... she was not qualified.

After this school trip, Yukinoshita Yukino became more certain of her inner thoughts.

During this school trip, whether it was the test before the school trip or the happy atmosphere of discussing the school trip with everyone,

Yukinoshita Yukino was very addicted to the atmosphere here, which was what a friend could bring her... Yukinoshita Yukino even doubted whether she could let Zuo Yu enjoy this atmosphere.

My understanding of Zuo Yu is not very thorough. I even just have a simple and vague idea that the reason Zuo Yu fell in love with me was when I cooked dinner for him during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

But...what about the rest?

Yukinoshita Yukino asked herself, she didn't even know why Zuo Yu fell in love with her after just having that simple dinner.

Is it the custom of having a meal with family during Mid-Autumn Festival?

Yukinoshita Yukino always felt that things were not that simple. Perhaps Zuo Yu fell in love with her because of other things she did during that dinner.

But I don’t even know what that thing is... Maybe I’m not even qualified to be Zuo Yu’s friend.

After learning that the reason why Zuo Yu was brought here was because of family, Yukinoshita Yukino was very confident that as long as she could become Zuo Yu's family member, that would be enough.

But when Yukinoshita Yukino rethought what she and Zuo Yu had experienced, and after she re-weighed the value of the word "family", she became a little scared again.

If I bring him here just based on the answers Zuo Yu told me, can I become a qualified family member of Zuo Yu?

Maybe I need to think about it more?

Yukinoshita Yukino's heart began to back out. Her original idea was to tell Zuo Yu the answer during this body exchange and bring him over...

But after she started to consider the four more times she had to swap bodies, Yukinoshita Yukino felt that she should probably think more about it. Could she really bear the weight of Zuo Yu's life?

The train was speeding towards home, but Yukinoshita Yukino felt like she was standing still.

All she knew about Zuo Yu was what he liked to eat, what kind of body shape he liked, and that he valued his family.

It seems that the information I got after the first body swap is not much different. What have I been doing in these body swaps? How come I only know this much about Zuo Yu?

The body was clearly moving towards home, and time was steadily moving towards the time when the body exchange would begin, but Yukinoshita Yukino was a little afraid of the upcoming body exchange.

She seemed to be regressing instead of progressing. Miura Yumiko had clearly said that if you like someone, you like them, and if you want to be together, you have to be together. But Yukinoshita Yukino was trying to find a reasonable explanation for her backward behavior.

Why did Zuo Yu specifically emphasize that there would be four more body swaps?

Clearly, according to his instructions last time, I should be able to come up with the answer this time... Is my answer not perfect enough? Perhaps I need to think about it carefully.

During the two and a half hours in the car, Yukinoshita Yukino didn't move forward, but took several steps back. She even found a reason for her retreat: Zuo Yu said there were still four chances to swap bodies, and there must be a deeper meaning behind it.

"Yukino, are you feeling carsick? You look terrible."

Having already gotten off the car, Yukinoshita Yukino and Kurohime Yuto were walking on the way back to their apartment. Kurohime Yuto looked at Yukinoshita, whose face had turned very bad since getting on the car, and asked with concern.

"No... I'm just a little tired."

Yukinoshita Yukino explained that the reason her complexion turned pale was because she was tired from the school trip.

"Well, then you should go to bed early tonight."

......

How can I rest early?

After Yukinoshita Yukino returned to her apartment, she looked at her bed and thought.
