"Oh~" Yanajian sighed that what Ukyo, the wooden man, said actually made some sense.

But are they sure they don't have any ulterior motives? The student council asked them to expand the club to 10 members within a month, otherwise they would have to share this huge activity room with other clubs.

While helping Shaoyan to express his feelings, he even did not forget to instigate others to join the club. It is really hard for the president.

"By the way, Ayano, are you interested in Ukyo Society?" Lemon said in the activity room.

The name of the Supernatural Literature Society is too long, so Lemon simply shortened it to "Ukyo Society".

"This place is really nice," Mitsuki said. "There's probably no better club room in the entire school, but... I often have to go to cram school after school, so I might not be able to participate in club activities. It would be bad if that caused trouble for Ukyo-sensei."

"You don't have to participate in activities, right? Ukyo is very relaxed about the club's requirements in this regard, and Mitsuki... I'm also a member of the club~"

"Huh? Lemon too? Hahaha~~... Reading more books is a good idea."

That's not what she meant...

"Mitsuki...I..."

What to do, Ukyo.

He now knows that I am also in the club, but he doesn't seem to have any intention of joining.

Lemon was anxious, but she couldn't type with Ukyo since Mitsuki was watching.

What should I do?

Ukyo Superman, save me!

...

"Mitsuki, why don't you join the club with your lovely girlfriend?" Ukyo and Yanami appeared at the door of the club office at the same time, pretending to have just arrived.

"Girlfriend? Eh? Are you talking about me? Hahaha~~, it turns out that Mitsuki and I are a good match when we stand together~" Lemon smiled and touched her hot cheeks. She felt a little embarrassed to be called girlfriend, but at least she was saved.

"Teacher Ukyo...I misunderstood." Mitsuki gently pushed the frame of her glasses, and the smile on the corner of her mouth was a little...hard to describe.

"Lemon has always been popular with boys. Someone like me is not worthy of her~"

After saying that, the smile on Mitsuki's lips returned.

Having borrowed the book, he prepared to leave.

Yanami seemed to have sensed something, and the title of "girlfriend" seemed to make Mitsuki feel a little uncomfortable.

"Everyone, I'm leaving first."

"Wait!" Lemon's voice suddenly rose a few degrees, "I don't have a boyfriend! What does being popular have to do with me? Mitsuki... I..."

Mitsuki Ayano took a half step back, somewhat at a loss, her pupils beneath the glasses revealing confusion.

"Did I say the wrong thing?"

"Right..."

"Don't apologize!" Lemon said, and took a step forward forcefully, grabbing his collar and forcing him towards him. Mitsuki blinked repeatedly, looking at her wheat-colored cheeks buried in the shadow of the setting sun, thinking that he had indeed said the wrong thing. Just as he was about to apologize, a familiar voice came to his ears -

"Mitsuki..." Chihaya Asagumo stood at the door with a confused look in her eyes, full of questions.

Lemon heard that Asamo called Mitsuki "Mitsuki" instead of "Ayano", which proved that they were very familiar with each other. Lemon had a bad feeling in her heart, but she was not sure.

Until Chao Yun walked over, slowly grabbed Mitsuki's arm, and looked at her with hostility.

This is clearly a defense of sovereignty.

Chihaya Asagumo is defending the ownership of Mitsuki Ayano.

Lemon's pupils were a little out of focus.

"You...have you already..."

"Hmm..." Chihaya nodded before Mitsuki could answer, "We've been dating for almost two months..."

Chihaya's words instantly froze the forced smile on Lemon's face.

"how come....."

Ayano was puzzled.

He didn't quite understand Lemon's reaction, and also why Chao Yun lied about how long they had been dating. In fact, they had only recently confirmed their relationship, less than two months ago.

"click~"

Someone pushed open the door of the community office again.

"Hello, everyone."

After Xiaoju entered the room, she looked around. The tense atmosphere made her want to close the door and go back in.

Also, there are so many people.

"Snapped--"

She closed the door, moved slowly along the wall, and hid herself in a corner where the sun could not reach...

.....

"Lemon, what's wrong with you?" Ayano asked puzzledly.

"No...nothing, Mitsuki, congratulations, you got a girlfriend."

Lemon continued to force a smile, trying hard to prevent Mitsuki from noticing anything unusual about her.

"Yeah, it was actually just a while ago, not even two months ago~, Chihaya is exaggerating, don't mind me, but I haven't introduced you guys yet... Lemon, this is Chihaya Asagumo, we met in Ukyo-sensei's study group."

Mitsuki Ayano scratched the hair above her ear shyly, then lowered her head.

Ukyo thought to himself that this guy really didn't know how to judge the situation. He was completely unaware of his childhood sweetheart's broken heart, and had no idea that Lemon liked him at all... Well, that's the only weakness of childhood sweethearts. Because they've been together for so long, they're too familiar with each other, lacking a sense of mystery, making it difficult for them to develop a romantic urge...

Another thing is that as they grow older, the gap between the two may become larger and larger, eventually leading to inferiority complex in one party and affecting the development of the relationship.

And Mitsuki is obviously the one with low self-esteem.

Volume 36: Chapter Even if you explode, you can't win

Lemon, with his cheerful and carefree personality, is very popular in the class. In addition, he has very good results in track and field running. He has the potential to impact the national team when he is only in the first year of high school, and he basically has no worries about further studies.

At this time, the somewhat dull Mitsuki Ayano and the shining Lemon in the crowd have gradually become distant.

Lemon had long since decided on her academic goals, and her path diverged from Mitsuki's. It was at this point that Chizuru Asagumo swooped in. They formed after-school groups, attended cram schools together, and worked together, forging a revolutionary friendship. Ukyo's analysis was that a partner with similar interests and shared ideals and goals is far more valuable than a first love.

The vague emotions between childhood sweethearts will give way to rational emotions in the end. He has been the leader of a two-person elementary school group, so he can see that Ayano and Asako have a lot in common in study and other aspects. In comparison, Lemon is far behind.

"Alas..." Youjing sighed in his heart, this couple didn't work out again.

Why do the couples he likes never end up together?

"Yes, you should introduce him to me." Lemon smiled brightly as usual and turned around.

"Mitsuki, please go ahead. We, the members of the Ukyo Society, have something to discuss."

Ayano's eyes were pure and innocent. "Well, you guys chat first, we won't disturb you."

"Ukyo, thank you for lending me the book. See you tomorrow."

Ayano bowed and left...

The atmosphere in the club is a bit weird.

Yanami looked around, not knowing how to start, and finally could only nudge Ukyo with his elbow.

"At a time like this, shouldn't the president say something?"

Yes, I should say something.

But Lemon's situation is different from yours. She tried hard, but she just felt bad about the timing, that she was just a little late. That's different from someone who just gave their boyfriend away. In this situation, what else can he say? Should he tell her that Ayano Mitsuki isn't worth it and ask her to find someone else? Impossible. This technique only works when they're not childhood sweethearts. For a relationship that's been going on for over a decade, using "slanderous" rhetoric to persuade someone will only have the opposite effect.

So just wait.

Give her time to adjust.

Lemon is not the type who likes to dwell on trivial matters or get upset over a breakup.

"Hey~, Ukyo." Lemon suddenly raised his head under the setting sun.

“I still haven’t said it…”

"what?"

"You asked me to confess, but I didn't say it... Originally, at least, there was a chance for Mitsuki to know my feelings, but now... there is no chance anymore. If I speak again, I will become the bad guy who destroys other people's feelings. If Mitsuki hears it, he will definitely be at a loss."

"Ha." Ukyo winked at Yanami and said to her in his heart, "Look, this is what childhood sweethearts are like. Even after a breakup, they still think about how to protect their partner."

Yanami could almost understand what Ukyo's eyes meant, but she always felt that Ukyo was taking the opportunity to mock her.

Neither of them responded.

In the silence that seemed to last forever, Shaoyan fell back weakly and leaned against the window frame.

I don't know where my eyes were looking, and I kept muttering:

"Strange~... So... Mitsuki has a girlfriend... Ahahaha... What on earth have I been doing all this time..."

Um....

Nothing.

It's just that all the effort was wasted.

Yanami got a piece of cardboard from somewhere and wrote the words "new member" on it with a marker. Speaking of which, Lemon joined the club in a hurry, and Ukyo didn't have time to introduce herself to the other members of the club. This meant that apart from him and Yanami, it was the first time that Komari saw her today.

"Put this on." Yanaijianjian gently placed a paper crown made of cardboard with the words "New Member" written on it on Shaoyan's head.

"Anyway...thank you for your hard work during this period."

"...Yeah. Thank you for your hard work."

Shaoshio put her arms around Yanami's waist and buried her face deep in it.

Ukyo went out silently at this time, and Xiaoju finally found an excuse to leave the club office.

At the door, Ukyo pulled out a box and placed a long, thin object into his mouth.

Xiaoju looked a little surprised. She had always thought that the cigars placed in the cabinet in the activity room were just to satisfy Youjing's collecting hobby, but she didn't expect that he would actually smoke them.

"Um... Ukyo... you're not allowed to light up in school, right?"

"It's nothing, it's just candy. Yue Zhimu apologized for not discussing the training camp with me last time, so he forced it on me."

The taste of mint spread in his mouth, and Youjing felt that he had messed up. If he hadn't urged Lemon to confess, perhaps the process would have been smoother if she had known about it.

But there's nothing we can do about it.

Regrets and failures always run through life. A life without regrets is incomplete.

Before the sobbing sound could be heard, Ukyo had already left the club office.

The next time I saw Lemon was on the playground a few minutes later.

The uniformed girl took a squat start stance, her determined eyes fixed straight ahead. Suddenly, she caught sight of Ukyo standing on the platform. A smile flashed across her face. "Ukyo, run with me."

"You can't catch up with me." Ukyo said.

He came to the playground and stood side by side with Lemon.

He understood the lovelorn girl's desire to vent, but he would not let her off just because he felt sorry for her. He believed that Lemon didn't want a letting-off competition at the moment.

A boy from the track and field club who had not yet returned home blew a signal gun, and in an instant, the girl rushed out like an arrow from a bow. Ukyo, who was familiar with her speed, laughed in silence. Facing a 1500m track, if she sprinted so fast at the beginning, she would lose speed in the middle. At around 800 meters, her lungs would feel like exploding. Ukyo estimated that 1000 meters would be Lemon's limit this time.

But she kept running... until the sunset faded, until her body stalled and her knees hit the plastic track.

Moist liquid oozed out of her eye sockets and dripped onto the runway. The girl's ten fingers, supporting the ground, were tightly clasped on the runway.

Ukyo, who was running ahead of him, stopped and turned to look at her.

This was a very realistic situation. Even if she lost control of her emotions and ran wildly, her performance was better than any previous test, she still couldn't catch up with Ukyo who was running in front of her.

For a moment, she didn't even know whether the reason for her tears was because of a broken heart or because she couldn't catch up with the "outsider" in front of her who had no systematic track and field training.

Ukyo handed her a bottle of energy drink.

Lemon took the bottle and poured the liquid down his throat.

"That's about it..." Ukyo said, "Let's stop here for today. You're so tired, you can't run anymore, right? I'll make an exception and give you a ride home."

"It's not enough." Lemon said, "I want to run one last hundred meters."
