A guide to survival in a heavy girl's world

Upon hearing this, Sanjiao Chuhua immediately said in a rather unfriendly tone:

"Besides the rest of us, how many other girls have you unintentionally stirred? How many girls have you supported? I advise you to sort things out quickly before things get to the point of no return. Otherwise... there will definitely be more people like me trying to 'test' you in the future!"

"..."

Chihaya Tetsuya was slightly stunned after hearing this, then nodded very seriously and said:

"Well, I'll think about this carefully."

"Also, since you already have so many lovers, please stop being so defenseless and open with everyone from now on! Do you know how terrifying that attitude is to girls? Your reliability and handsomeness that can leave people speechless from time to time, your unconditional gentleness and consideration for everyone, and your vulnerability that seems like you could take advantage of them at any moment... Tsk, just thinking about it makes me mad! How do you think I fell in love with you? It's because of these things!"

Perhaps because he had already confessed all his secrets, Sanjiao Chuhua, who no longer had any worries, spoke directly about the dissatisfaction he had been accumulating for a long time:

"Even if you truly don't have any such thoughts, how can you guarantee the other person's? Just like when you went to Paris this time, people weren't actually suspicious of your infidelity, but rather worried that more people would be attracted to you and, like everyone else, unknowingly develop an inseparable relationship with you."

"I, I know!"

Seeing that Sankaku Hatsuka's tone was becoming increasingly unhappy, Chihaya Tetsu quickly nodded and agreed:

"...I will definitely be careful about how I interact with other girls from now on!"

"Well! You should have done this a long time ago!"

Sanjiao Chuhua first nodded very seriously, then closed his eyes again and let out a long breath.

Although the upcoming trial tomorrow did make her a little uneasy, being able to tell all her worries and past to Chihaya Tetsuya like now... did make her feel more relaxed than ever before.

At least from today on, she no longer had to hide her feelings for Chihaya Tetsuya, nor did she have to worry about his misunderstandings or directly complain or lecture him...

……

"If today's incident really causes a rift in your relationship... I will never forgive myself in my life."

Triangle Chuhua whispered softly:

"Tomorrow, I'm going to be the first one to admit my mistake... and you're not allowed to compete with me."

"……kindness."

Chihaya Tetsuya nodded in agreement, then he asked in a low voice:

"Do you think they will forgive us?"

"I don't know about Xiangzi... but if it's Ai, she'll probably be pretty angry. After all, she's always been very possessive of you."

Thinking back to when the two of them had not yet reconciled, Hoshino Ai's attitude was like that of an animal protecting its food, Sankaku Hatsuka couldn't help but shook her head.

"But no matter what, she definitely won't leave you. At most, she'll continue to exploit you even more, leaving you with no chance to attack other girls... This time, there's no one else who can offer you protection."

"……I see."

Chihaya Tetsuya responded in a heavy tone.

"This time, no matter what kind of punishment it is, I will accept it well."

Even if he would be punished to the point where he could never get out of bed again, he would never escape!

In this way, with their own awareness, Sankaku Hatsuka and Chihaya Tetsuya spent this sleepless night together.

……

The next morning, when Chihaya Tetsuya and Sankaku Hatsuka returned to the downstairs of the apartment building, both of them looked extremely nervous.

Even after a night of calm and composure, they were still very worried about what would happen next.

For Chuhua, she was very worried that Xiangzi and Ai would start to hate her because of this incident.

Chihaya Tetsu was also worried that he would lose everyone's trust.

Just like that, with extremely solemn moods and expressions, the two stepped into the apartment and returned to Chihaya's home.

However, when Chihaya Tetsuya opened the door, the scene before him was completely beyond their expectations.

In their original conception, the four girls should have been sitting upright on the sofa in the living room, waiting for the two men to enter the house and then immediately begin the interrogation. However, the reality was that the four girls were indeed gathered in the living room, but the atmosphere and state... could be said to be completely different from what the two had expected.

"Ah, welcome back, both of you!"

Nagasaki Suyo, who was placing snacks on the coffee table, turned around and said to the two people who had just entered:

"You guys got home much earlier than we expected...eh? Looking closely, you two look pretty grim!"

Seeing the two people's faces turning slightly pale due to insomnia, Nagasaki Suyo said with a worried look on her face:

On the other side, Toyokawa Shoko, who was sitting on the sofa, also stood up with a look of surprise on her face.

"I can understand if Tetsuya-kun looks a little off. I thought Chuhua would be more energetic... Eh? Could it be that Chuhua is also the same type as Ai that's not so good?"

"I've already said it, I'm not the same as I was at the beginning! But... Chu Hua might really be doing the same thing as you said."

Hoshino Ai first made such a sophistry, then followed suit and went to meet the two of them. In a tone of accusation, she asked a question that was completely inconsistent with her attitude:

"Tell me the truth, what time did you do it last night? How many times did you do it?"

“???”*2.

An unusually harmonious atmosphere, a non-oppressive attitude, and inexplicable questions.

As for why the Chihaya family showed such a "weird" attitude towards the two, everything started from last night -

Chapter 16: A happy misunderstanding.

"Hey... do you have something important to confess to everyone?"

Looking at the message Chihaya Tetsuya had just sent on her phone, Toyokawa Shoko, who was discussing the band and new songs with everyone in the living room, thought for a moment before speaking in a slightly curious voice:

"What big thing could it be?"

"For Zhe, there are only two possibilities for the big thing he mentioned. One is a work-related topic, and the other is a relationship-related topic. Plus, he's at Chuhua's house now..."

Hoshino Ai shrugged nonchalantly:

"I think Chuhua has probably succeeded."

She came to this inaccurate conclusion quite naturally.

"I see……"

After hearing this, Toyokawa Shoko nodded very easily, without any surprise on her face. It seemed that she directly understood this guess as reality.

"Then I'll just say 'I understand' to him first... Yeah, OK."

After completing this concise and clear reply, Toyokawa Shoko put down her phone again and spoke to Hoshino Ai again -

"By the way, I originally thought I was the only one who knew about Chuhua's hidden feelings for Zheye-kun... When did Ai first become aware of it?"

"If it was before she received that dress, I would at most be slightly concerned about her attitude towards Zhe, but since she received that dress, her behavior has become more and more obvious."

Hoshino Ai said:

"Not only does he actively consider issues from our perspective, he even occasionally asks his agent if they have any new projects that they can collaborate on with StarrySky..."

"Ah... this is indeed quite obvious."

After hearing this, Shoko Toyokawa suddenly understood and nodded.

"Although she is the type of person who would lend a helping hand to those around her, it is actually very difficult to get Chuhua to take the initiative to do something for others."

"Eh?! Is that so?"

After hearing Toyokawa Shoko's answer, Nagasaki Suyo, who had only recently learned the truth from Shoko, covered her mouth in surprise.

"I didn't expect Chuhua to have such feelings for Zheye all along... I always thought that with her independent and strong personality, it would be difficult for her to fall in love with someone else."

"It's really difficult. Even though Chuhua is friendly and gentle to everyone, there are actually very few people who can be recognized by her."

Toyokawa Shoko said:

"Her style is actually a bit similar to Tetsuya-kun's. Although she enjoys helping others, she strongly dislikes relying on others and will solve problems on her own. However, unlike Tetsuya-kun, who has an extreme lack of self-identity, Chuhua is simply confident and independent."

"Oh, I've seen this kind of situation online. The more this type of person is, the more they can't leave someone with my brother's personality alone!"

Chihaya Aine said with great interest:

"Just like how highly capable women always find useless men, for Chu Hua, who has a clear self-awareness, people like my brother who lack self-awareness are exactly the type she worries about the most... Well, come to think of it, it's the same with Xiangzi, right? Because she wants to correct her brother's perception, she's even more determined to become his lover..."

"Yeah...that's why Chuhua and I get along so well."

Toyokawa Shoko nodded first, then asked the people in front of her:

"Speaking of which... I naturally have no objection to Chuhua joining, but what about you? Ah, please don't consider the feelings and thoughts of Zheye-kun and me. For the sake of our common future, you must speak your true thoughts here! After all, compromises and grievances accumulated to a certain extent can easily turn into something even worse."

“…I’m fine.”

Hoshino Ai spoke first:

"Before I reunited with Zhe, Chuhua had given me a lot of help and care... Although we occasionally fought over each other, now that I'm with Zhe as I wished, it's Chuhua's turn next."

"I don't have any objections. After all, Chuhua has become inseparable from many of us. Plus, after what happened at RiNG... I actually don't treat her as an outsider anymore."

Nagasaki Suyo also expressed her agreement.

As for Chihaya Aine...

"As long as my brother agrees, I agree!"

This almost indecisive thought made everyone present shake their heads. Ever since Chihaya Aine and her beloved brother became lovers, her way of thinking had directly degenerated into a single-threaded approach centered around her brother...

However, being simple-minded also has its advantages. At least for now, Chihaya Aine is definitely the one who lives the happiest and most fulfilled life among everyone.

"Hey, please stop looking at me with such pity, okay? Okay, I admit, I have another reason. That is - when I first learned about [Summer Zodiac], I really liked Chuhua!"

Facing the sympathy of everyone present, Chihaya Aine quickly added:

"So, of course I have no objection to being able to become family with my favorite idol!"

"Hey... This is the first time I've heard of this."

Hoshino Ai suddenly leaned forward with great interest.

"Since you've been interested in Chuhua since then, what do you think of me?"

"Eh……"

After hearing Hoshino Ai's question, Chihaya Aine first dragged out a long sound, not wanting to answer. After realizing that Hoshino Ai didn't seem to intend to let her go easily, she could only answer helplessly:

"I should say I'm curious and amazed. On the one hand, I'm curious about the relationship between you and my brother, and on the other hand, I think your face is really a bit too much..."

"You think I'm cuter, but you still like Chuhua more?"

"After all, I value temperament more than looks! And back then, you always gave people the feeling that you had no idea what you were really thinking. To be honest, I was a little afraid of that type of person... And in fact, when we first met, you did say a lot of scary things to me! Unlike Chu Hua, who not only took the initiative to perform on the same stage with us and helped us out, but even took the initiative to support us afterwards..."

Having said that, Chihaya Aine immediately cast a complaining look at Hoshino Ai.

"Looking at it this way, it's only natural that I like Chuhua more!"

"Hey~ I see, so that's what you think."

Recalling the scene when she first came into contact with Chihaya Aine and others, Hoshino Ai suddenly revealed a mysterious smile.

"Although Chuhua did take the initiative to help you out...but in fact, at that time, she also had a little bit of bad intentions like me~"

"Eh? Bad intentions? What does that mean!?"

"Hmph, nothing. Wait until she gets home tomorrow and then ask her."

After saying that, she stood up from the sofa and prepared to go back to Chihaya Tetsuya's room to rest first.

To stay in top form for the [TGC], she'd been strictly adhering to the agency's standards for both her daily routine and her diet. This past week, she'd even decided to abstain from sex completely before the [TGC], hoping to avoid the stiffness in her legs and waist from excessive nighttime exercise.

"……kindness?"

Just after she stood up, she suddenly remembered that while everyone was still discussing these topics, the always silent girl brought by Xiangzi was still reading at the dining table not far away.

Thinking of this, she immediately turned her head to look in the direction of Wakaba Mu, and then, when she noticed that Wakaba Mu was also silently watching this side, and immediately turned her head away after their eyes met, Hoshino Ai suddenly murmured thoughtfully:

"It seems like every time we talk about Zhe, she's always listening in..."

Is it because you don’t want to be excluded, or is it simply out of curiosity?

There is no way of knowing Ai Hoshino.

But no matter what, this child never caused any trouble to anyone from beginning to end, and even helped everyone occasionally...
