Didn’t you say you were just using me as a substitute?

No wonder she felt the other person's elbow was so familiar.

I hope he won’t commit domestic violence in the future.

"When did you know that?"

Unlike Kasumigaoka Utaha and Eriri, Shijo Maki quickly accepted this fact and spoke calmly.

Because she knew that there was no need for Kashiwagi Nagisa to tell such a lie that would be exposed at the slightest provocation.

"After I first met him."

Kashiwagi Nagisa said honestly.

"Why didn't you tell me in the beginning?"

There was no expression of emotion on Shijo Maki's face, and even Kashiwagi Nagisa, who grew up with her, was a little confused about her childhood friend.

"At first I thought you knew, but then I realized you didn't. You seemed to have already considered him a friend. I saw that you two were very happy together, so I didn't tell you."

Kashiwagi Nagisa said half truthfully and half falsely.

"lie."

Shijo Shinki stared at her coldly, and her IQ suddenly went up.

Kashiwagi Nagisa felt very uncomfortable being stared at by her.

Kashiwagi Nagisa is not sure whether telling Watanabe Takashi's identity to Shijo Shinki is the right move.

"I just have one question for you now."

Shijo Shinki did not pursue the matter further, but instead fixed her eyes on Kashiwagi Nagisa, as if she was locking onto a toy she wanted.

"Do you really like...him?"

"Yes."

This was the only point that Kashiwagi Nagisa answered firmly.

At first, she was only slightly interested in Kitahara Takashi.

I can’t say I like it very much.

The family that Kashiwagi Nagisa was born into would never allow her to be with a poor boy like Kitahara Takashi.

She originally thought that when he liked her and got tired of playing with her, she would tell Shijo Zhenfei his identity.

But later, as they got along, she gradually found herself missing him more and more.

I carry my cell phone with me everywhere, even when I take a shower, for fear of missing any messages from him.

On the day when Kitahara Takashi set off the fireworks for Kato Megumi, she actually didn't tell Kitahara Takashi that she was asleep.

But when she heard his phone call, her body's instinctive reaction was to answer it.

If she didn't really like him, she wouldn't do this.

Perhaps Kashiwagi Nagisa's initial feelings for Kitahara Takashi were not pure enough, not as strong as those for Yozakura Hitomi or Kamikawa Nari.

But who says that fake things can’t become real?

At least now, her love for Kitahara Takashi is genuine.

It's not for anyone, it's not because of anyone, she just simply likes Kitahara Tsutomu.

"Have you ever thought about the future? Will your family accept him, a poor man with nothing?"

Everyone's family is different.

The Kashiwagi family is not the Konoe family or the Kamikawa family. The Kashiwagi family cares a lot about background and family. No matter how good the future potential of someone like Kitahara Takashi is, they will not look down on him.

What the Kashiwa family needs is a stable marriage partner, not a future full of variables.

"I thought about it. I knew my family wouldn't accept Kitahara Takashi, so I had already made plans to elope with him."

When Shijo Maki saw Kashiwagi Nagina saying this, her eyes were filled with eagerness. She had only one thought: "He's in love!"

"Are you crazy?"

"Hey, I think I'm crazy too."

Kashiwagi Nagisa playfully stuck out her pink tongue.

"But I don't regret it."

"You'll regret it later."

Although Shijo Maki said this, she actually thought that Kashiwagi Nagisa's idea was very cool and romantic.

Otherwise, how could the two of them play together and become best friends?

This is just like a man’s brother. What good can someone be to play with him?

"Maybe."

Kashiwagi Nagisa didn't deny it.

"It's just that if I don't do it now, I will definitely regret it now."

"Even if my family forces me to marry Tanuma Tsubasa, I will definitely cheat on Kitahara Takashi in the future."

Shijo Shinki looked at Kashiwagi Nagisa speechlessly.

How can you say such things with such a clear conscience?

"Do you know what the consequences of breaking up with Yi will be? Is it really worth it?"

The news that Tanuma Tsubasa and Kashiwagi Nagisa are together is now known to everyone in Shuchiin, if not everyone, but at least the first years know it.

Now she broke up with him and turned around to be with Kitahara Takashi. It was a seamless transition.

Shijo Shinki couldn't even imagine how many people would criticize Kashiwagi Nagisa by then.

"worth."

Kashiwagi Nagisa's tone was very serious. Then she looked at Katsura Kotonoha who was not far away: "Even Miss Katsura dares to do something, why shouldn't I dare to do it?"

Katsura Yanye happened to see it at this time, and the two looked at each other, as if sparks and lightning collided.

"Is Yi that bad?"

Shijo Mane didn't understand why Kashiwagi Nagisa would rather give up Tanuma Tsubasa, whom she already had, and insist on going to Kitahara Takashi.

"It has nothing to do with whether he's good or not, it's just that I don't like him, that's all."

Kashiwagi Nagisa looked at the court again, and her eyes suddenly became gentle.

"The gentle and refined Tanuma-kun is the silent spring rain that moistens everything, while the uninhibited Kitahara-kun is the free and passionate wind in the wilderness. What I want is not a gentle rain that moistens the earth, but chasing the wind in the wilderness."

Many times, a girl doesn’t choose you, which has nothing to do with whether you are excellent or not, but just because she feels that she has no feelings for you.

"Zhenfei, I'm telling you everything today because I don't want to fall out with you and not even be able to be friends."

Kashiwagi Nagisa is not afraid no matter who his opponent is.

But she didn't want to lose her only sister, Shijo Shinki.

"You will bless me."

Shijo Shinki imagined the scene of Zun and Nagisa together, her heart seemed to skip a beat, and she suddenly felt suffocated.

Why are my hands shaking so badly?

Shijo Shinki felt as if a tsunami was brewing inside her, but she still managed to force a smile: "Of course."

"idiot!"

When Longzhu Tao saw Shijo Shinki like this, she just thought she was ridiculous.

"True concubine..."

Zi'an Yan wanted to say something but stopped himself.

Even when Katsura Kotonoha looked at Shijo Shinki, there was a hint of pity in her eyes.

'Why are you all looking at me like that?'

Shijo Shinki didn't understand why everyone looked at her with pity.

"Thank you, Shinki."

Kashiwagi Nagisa hugged Shijo Shinki with a hint of pity in his eyes.

Perhaps the only person at the scene who didn't know how painful her expression was right now was Shijo Shinki herself.

A forced smile is not pretty at all, or it can be called a smile at all.

I'm afraid that without realizing it, Kitahara Takashi's position in Shijo Shinki's heart has surpassed Tanuma Tsubasa, but she herself has not discovered it yet.

"Zhenfei, this is your own choice. I won't give you a chance."

243

Chapter 243 Who gave you the courage?

After the flag was presented and the shield of victory was awarded, and the interview was over, there was actually a medal awarding ceremony.

This should have been done before the interview, but Sakurajima Mai was so nervous standing in front of Kitahara Takashi that she forgot about it.

Fortunately, Ichiro Suzuki and Shohei Otani helped the little girl get back together, and the audience did not blame Mai Sakurajima too much for not getting into any accidents.

Of course, this is just a small episode.

After receiving the individual medals, this Hagar event officially ended.

When Aoba and Koudou Ikusei left the stage, the audience stood up and applauded.

This time the applause is not only for Aoba, but also for Gaokouyucheng.

Regardless, this finals was an exciting game.

Passion, hard work, fighting, blows, draws, counterattacks, miracles, in short, this finals has all the elements you want to see.

Gao Du Yu Cheng showed the world that strength is supreme, and Qing Ye proved to the world what it means: the more difficult the situation, the more you must not give up!

Hearing the audience's first applause for him and others, Gao Du Yucheng felt it was jarring.

They lowered their heads and walked quickly towards the player tunnel.

The Aoba players were not in a hurry to leave. They waved left and right to the audience and refused to leave for a long time.

Because many people understand that this may be their only chance in life to be the center of attention.

After today ends, many people will have to choose between continuing to go to college or facing the cruel reality.

"Kitahara, thank you."

When entering the player tunnel from the stadium, Momotani took a reluctant last look at the historic, magnificent and legendary Hanshin Koshien, and then solemnly thanked Kitahara Takashi.

Kitahara Takashi was stunned as he bit the medal, trying to see if it was pure gold. Then he smiled and said, "What are you thanking me for? You, senior, pitched the tickets here one by one."

"If it weren't for our seniors today, we wouldn't have won so easily."

Kitahara Tsutomu still respects Taogu Yao very much.

If he were to come, he would at best be eliminated in the first round of Koshien.

He only pitched six or seven games, not even a full season, and his right arm was almost in need of major repair.

If he were to start from the first round of the preliminaries, Kitahara Takashi doubted that he would be able to win even if he swung his arms like smoke.

What's more, if Momoya had not insisted on fighting despite his injury and was willing to be a supporting role today, Gaoyuanji Rokusuke would not have left the field at all.

I'm afraid we'll have to go into overtime then.

Given the condition of Kitahara Takashi's arm, he definitely won't be able to last in overtime.

Everyone said that Aoba's victory in this year's Koshien was the ultimate performance of Kitahara Takashi's personal heroism.

But only Kitahara Takashi knew that today's victory was inseparable from the efforts of everyone.

Any team competition cannot be separated from the performance of every team member.

Just like the Chinese national football team, even if you were given a Messi or Ronaldo in their prime, could you win the World Cup?

Kitahara Takashi and Aoba are mutually accomplished.
