After deciding to give up, I became popular

"This matter is settled, no need to bring it up in future meetings. Other matters will proceed according to the original procedures. If anything changes, just send me a message. That's all, let's end the meeting for today."

After arranging everything, Sou Natsukawa gave a slight apology to the student council members.

"Sorry, everyone, I might be feeling a bit unwell. I want to go rest for a bit, please excuse me."

"..." The others didn't speak, just looked at each other, then watched Sou Natsukawa leave.

"President..." Kaguya Shinomiya murmured, her eyes filled with worry.

Leaving the student council room, Sou Natsukawa yawned as he walked towards the infirmary.

Because of what happened at the bookstore, he had been suffering from insomnia for days. The heavy stone weighing on his heart was making it hard to breathe.

His conflict with the angel was already giving him a headache, and then he went and did something like that...

When he was focused, it was alright, but once he started to get sleepy or had free time, the scene from that day would constantly replay in his mind, even in his dreams.

One of life's three great illusions—she likes me.

He made that mistake, mistakenly thinking that a girl who approached him so actively liked him, and was rejected again, harshly.

That's six losses in a row now, quite the achievement, Sou Natsukawa chuckled to himself.

Heroine or extra, no matter what kind of girl, none of them would like someone like him.

Perhaps they had some goodwill towards him, but it wasn't love, just an 'OK' as friends... Well, maybe a hint of respect for the capable?

Because he was the student council president, he was naturally trusted and loved by everyone. He finally understood.

But the price was a huge embarrassment, plus several days of crazy insomnia.

That's why he wanted to come to the infirmary to catch some sleep.

"Excuse me, is anyone here?"

He knocked lightly on the door and, receiving no response, opened it and walked in.

Students came late, so the teachers in charge naturally wouldn't come early. The infirmary was currently empty.

He checked the time and saw that there were about 40 minutes left before the first self-study period. Counting the self-study period he could skip, he could theoretically sleep for almost two hours.

Lucky!

The overall time might not be much, but it would still help him replenish some energy, especially to give his eyes a chance to rest, so he had to sleep.

"..."

"zzz..."

Warm, smooth, countless soft things surrounded Sou Natsukawa.

Large, plentiful, and plump white spheres pressed against him, accompanied by an indescribable soft sensation.

Marshmallow? A little like it. Clouds in the sky? He had no experience with that, so he couldn't comment, but he could confirm that the close-fitting touch was top-notch, with a warm and glutinous feeling like being in colorful clouds.

"Hmm..."

His eyes opened slightly, and he was met with a void of darkness.

His breathing was a little labored, his nostrils seemed to be blocked by something, so he could only gulp for air with his mouth, but the next moment he was caught by a rough texture.

"Eep!"

With a cute cry, Sou Natsukawa finally woke up a little.

"..."

Pulling his head out of a strange crevice, Sou Natsukawa fell into thought as he looked at the pink-haired girl in front of him, her face flushed and her posture twisted.

"Did I wake up the wrong way?"

So he lay down, preparing to wake up again.

"Oh, President, wake up, now that you're awake, don't pretend to be asleep."

The pink-haired girl covered her chest with one hand, and with the other, she pulled out a foxtail grass from somewhere, tickling Sou Natsukawa's nose.

Finally, he couldn't help but sneeze and fully opened his eyes.

"Fujiwara Secretary... what are you doing here?"

If there was anyone he didn't want to encounter right now, it was the playful Fujiwara-san.

Annoying, bothersome? Naturally not. If he really had to, he would at most dislike her silly, cute appearance.

But right now, he really wasn't in the mood to play with her, and his physical condition wouldn't allow it.

"I'm here to capture the President, you know." Chika Fujiwara reached out and poked Sou Natsukawa's cheek, a triumphant smile on her face.

"Ah, I've been caught..." Sou Natsukawa said loudly, "You won the tag game, so please go back."

"I'm not going back like that, there's still a punishment to be done, President." Chika Fujiwara shook her head, then giggled and moved Sou Natsukawa's head onto her lap.

A beautiful girl's lap pillow, suddenly get√.

"..."

Are you sure it's a punishment and not a reward? Sou Natsukawa really wanted to ask.

But facing the "cancer of the earth" whom he couldn't understand at all, if she said it was a "punishment," then it might really be true.

But it didn't matter, no matter what she was going to do next, he wouldn't lose out too much.

"First is the Q\u0026A session! First question! Do boys like lap pillows?" As she spoke, Chika Fujiwara stretched her sinful hands towards Sou Natsukawa's head.

"At least I'm not against it." Sou Natsukawa's brows gradually relaxed.

If you are being...played by life, don't resist, face it positively—this was exactly like his current situation, but the object was Chika Fujiwara.

But come to think of it... He originally thought she was going to play some kind of prank on him, and he was prepared for it, but she was actually going to massage him? Could this really be called a punishment?

"So, how does the 'Guinea Pig, Renowned to be at the Mercy of Others' President feel? This is the first time I've done this for someone."

"Please don't add that strange prefix to my title." Sou Natsukawa was now certain that this was indeed a punishment game.

Giving people titles was really embarrassing, especially when his "head" was completely in someone else's control, and he couldn't even shake his head.

"Oh, you dummy President, don't move around, I'll press the wrong place." Feeling the strange sensation from her thighs, Chika Fujiwara's pretty face flushed.

She quickly patted the other person's forehead as a warning.

Fortunately, there was something blocking the line of sight between the two, otherwise, if Sou Natsukawa saw her shy appearance, she would become even stranger.

Sou Natsukawa immediately became honest, afraid that Chika Fujiwara would accidentally poke his eyes out.

"..."

"Guinea Pig President, don't play dead, quickly answer my question, the punishment time isn't over yet."

"You're the one who changed the topic..." Sou Natsukawa subconsciously retorted, but then honestly replied, "It feels alright, but your skills need to be improved."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was hit on the forehead again.

"..."

Stop it! If this continues and bumps grow on my head, the student council president's dignity will be swept away!

"It's all the President's fault, who told you not to praise me honestly." Chika Fujiwara looked sulky, but her hands were still diligently working.

"Next is the second question!"

"Isn't this clearly the third question?"

With a "pa" sound, a strange feeling of refreshment suddenly arose in Chika Fujiwara's heart.

It was like scrubbing someone's back in the bathroom and then slapping them, a strong sense of satisfaction was about to gush out.

"Why did you hit me again..."

"Y, you're too long-winded, President! J, just answer my question!"

"Then ask away."

——"Pa"

"You mere Guinea Pig President, don't talk back!" Chika Fujiwara said excitedly.

She was really getting addicted to patting! She didn't even remember what she wanted to ask, and blurted out directly.

"Hey, President, let... let me try it!"

Her eyes gleaming, Chika Fujiwara's thirst for knowledge had exploded!

Not only the President's smooth forehead, but also here, there... she wanted to try the feel of everything!

"What do you want to try?!"

Sou Natsukawa looked horrified, thinking that the real punishment had finally come, he was still careless, he should have been prepared from the beginning.

But the soft and smooth lap pillow was really comfortable! And there was a great view to see, he had completely fallen for the honey trap.

Lying underneath, he couldn't muster any strength at all. Although he hadn't rested for long and was still very tired, if he didn't get up, it would really be too late!

However, just as Sou Natsukawa was about to make a move, Chika Fujiwara grabbed his hands and pressed them firmly on the bed.

"Guhahaha, the President's feel..." Sinful hands kept reaching for the hem of his clothes, determined to open the forbidden door...

"..."

Don't come over here!

Just as Sou Natsukawa was thinking about whether he was going to be played with severely today, the infirmary door suddenly opened.

"Huh? I actually forgot to lock the door..."

The young female teacher had just entered and saw the two people, female on top of male, on the bed not far away, their position like they were cosplaying fusion magic, and fell silent.

"..."

"..."

"Ah, um, sorry for intruding, I'll leave now..."

As she retreated and closed the door, she said in a sighing tone: "Young people these days are so energetic in the morning, they play even more than we did back then..."

Sou Natsukawa: "..."

Shouldn't you be stopping them at a time like this? By the way, what do you mean by coming back every 10 minutes? Are you looking down on him? Get out and come back after at least half an hour!

In short, he was very angry, and he didn't feel sleepy at all, but was very energetic.

"Natsukawa, are you alright?" Miyuki Shirogane came over and greeted him.

"It's nothing, I feel much better after resting for a while." Sou Natsukawa looked up and responded.

Since he returned to his position, Shirogane's complexion seemed to have improved a lot, the dark circles under his eyes had disappeared, and his whole temperament had changed greatly.
