After deciding to give up, I became popular

“!”

Of course, she was more than happy to oblige.

Although Fujiwara, the milk cow, was hindering her right beside him, she would forgive her shameful act of wagging her tail and begging the chairman for food, considering she had done a good deed.

Unlike Fujiwara Chika, who had an unrefined image of devouring everything in sight, Kaguya Shinomiya appeared very reserved, merely tucking the hair beside her ear behind it, then leaning forward slightly, her lips parting as she gently bit down.

After chewing a couple of times and swallowing, she licked her lips and said softly, "Not bad, thank you for the treat, Chairman."

"Uh… yeah," Xia Chuanzou replied, letting out a breath.

He had been staring at Kaguya Shinomiya the entire time, initially just wanting to see her reaction, but then he realized he was staring intently at a girl eating, which, behaviorally speaking, was perverted and awful…

"Chairman is such a pervert, staring at Kaguya-chan the whole time," Fujiwara Chika unexpectedly blurted out, even poking his reddening face.

"You, don't talk nonsense! I, I just wanted to hear Si Gong's evaluation, no, nothing else…" He turned to look at Kaguya Shinomiya, hoping she wouldn't misunderstand, but saw that she had also become somewhat bashful.

"Hmm… is, is that so…"

"…"

Crap, he was misunderstood after all.

098. Kaguya's Little Thoughts

"Speaking of which, the forest school trip is coming up this year, I'm really looking forward to it," Fujiwara Chika said, swinging her legs while sitting on the armrest of the sofa, trying to start a conversation.

The so-called forest school refers to an outdoor activity that takes place close to nature, where knowledge is learned from nature schools. It can essentially be seen as a collective overnight activity, usually lasting several days, where students experience the joy of respecting labor and creation by cooking their own meals, enhancing their sense of responsibility, and fostering good interpersonal relationships.

It's usually scheduled during summer vacation, but the arrangements vary from school to school. Shu Zhiyuan places it in the first semester of each academic year, aiming to help students adapt to their classes and the school, and to deepen connections between groups.

"It won't be any different from last year, will it?" Kaguya Shinomiya said while making tea, "It's just studying in a different place, at most there will be a bonfire party or something…"

Although the activity is quite interesting, because it's based on classes as a group, it doesn't really bring her much anticipation, since the chairman and she aren't in the same class.

"Kaguya-chan doesn't like this kind of activity? I quite like it, but it's a pity I can't play with Kaguya-chan… seriously, I wish we could act without being grouped by class," Fujiwara Chika lamented.

The speaker may not have meant much, but Kaguya Shinomiya strongly agreed. If they could act freely, she could invite the chairman to team up, do this and that together, and finally, at the romantic bonfire party, be invited by the chairman to dance and then confess to her…

No, she absolutely couldn't miss this excellent opportunity!

"Speaking of which, the students have also responded. Grouping by class is indeed a bit inhumane, hindering their interactions with friends from other classes. They hope the school can be more flexible in this regard…" Kaguya Shinomiya said with a smile, looking at Xia Chuanzou.

"What does the chairman think? Should we change it to a grade-based unit or something?"

Saying it's free action would be too chaotic, and there's a possibility that the chairman might notice her thoughts. But saying it's grade-based is fine.

Anyway, the third-year students aren't participating, and the first and second-year students won't be going to the same places. There are only a little over 100 people in each grade, so it's completely manageable. The most important thing is… that way she can be with the chairman openly!

After all, she's the vice president, isn't it her duty to help the chairman manage order?

The so-called vice president should always be with the president!

No one can stop her!

"If it's grade-based, there will be more activities that can be carried out, won't there? Like the test of courage that students have been clamoring for…"

"Test of courage…" Xia Chuanzou thought for a moment, feeling that it did make sense, and he had just taken office, so he should consider how to add fuel to his performance.

"If it's grade-based, there are indeed a bit too many people, and it's not easy to manage…"

"How about this, let the class committee members of each class be responsible for managing individuals, and then report the situation to us every day, and the student council will handle it centrally."

"In order not to affect the safety of the students, the first few days will still operate in the usual class mode, and the last few days will hold… um, a test of courage and a bonfire party, and a reward and punishment system should also be established, selecting the class with the best order and the class with the worst order. The rewards can be given appropriately, but the punishment must be in place. Once the passing line is not reached, it must be severely punished…"

The student council of Shu Zhiyuan has a lot of power. Although activities like forest school trips are already established rules, it's not impossible for the student council to get involved. As long as the proposed arrangements are relatively reasonable and not the kind that suddenly cancels everything, the school won't say much.

After the few people discussed the details, the matter was settled.

Seeing this, Fujiwara Chika hugged Kaguya Shinomiya and rubbed her face against her, "Great! That way I can always be with Kaguya-chan!"

"Ugh…" Kaguya Shinomiya looked like she couldn't stand it. Her goal was to be close to the chairman! Not you, you big-breasted milk cow!

Damn it, if she wasn't concerned about her image, she would have slapped this idiot's chest long ago. It would be even better if she could slap it smaller on the spot!

She is irreconcilable with the giant breast aliens!

"Don't be too happy, although it's nice to find friends to be together, the amount of work for our student council will increase, and we won't be able to enjoy the activity naturally." Although he didn't want to dampen the girls' emotions, seeing Fujiwara Chika so happy always made him want to ridicule her subconsciously.

"Of course, as long as you can successfully complete your duties, you can do whatever you want at that time."

"Anything… Chairman, you wouldn't want to be lewd, would you?" Fujiwara Chika suddenly looked at him with a very disgusted expression, as if he really would do that.

So a ＃ appeared on his head, thinking that he really shouldn't be too kind to this idiot. Just as he was about to retort "Give me a break," the door of the student council room was opened.

Iino Miko appeared at the door once again.

"Chairman wants to be lewd…"

Being stared at by a first-year junior with a look of contempt, Xia Chuanzou was almost numb.

"It's not what you think… In short, I don't want to be lewd at all!"

Mostly out of a self-deprecating attitude, Xia Chuanzou's words became a little more unrestrained, but precisely because he was facing three girls, he had to clarify himself, not allowing the strange persona that Fujiwara had put on him to be imprisoned.

So he explained to Iino Miko, and then exerted the majesty of being the chairman and a senior, asking her to do the overall planning and manage the first-year students.

"Just treat it as adapting to the identity of 'student council president' in advance. With Iino-san's ability, you will definitely be able to complete the task perfectly, right?"

After cheering up his junior a little, she looked different.

"Uh, but is it really okay to leave it to me? I just joined, I should be inferior to Ishigami… no, forget I said that." Iino Miko seemed to have some concerns, but she immediately became confident after talking about Ishigami.

"Cough cough… In short, I'll leave the first-year side to you, I'll have Ishigami cooperate with your work, feel free to… dispatch him is fine." Xia Chuanzou replied.

He once again remembered the two idiot boys forming a small group without him, so he decided to take revenge on the spot.

But honestly, Ishigami didn't seem as reliable as Iino Miko, and the key is that these two are the only first-year students in their student council, so he couldn't ask someone else, right?

099. Haha, it's a bomb!

"It just so happens that Miko-chan is here today, so let's play a game!" Fujiwara Chika suggested, even suddenly pulling out a box of board games from somewhere.

"I refuse." X2, Kaguya Shinomiya and Xia Chuanzou said in unison, they still hadn't forgotten the terrible experience brought about by the last game.

"Oh, don't say that, just treat it as a welcome party for little Miko, playing games together can also enhance feelings, right?" Fujiwara Chika tried to bewitch people.

"You just suddenly want to play, right?" Xia Chuanzou ruthlessly exposed her, so Fujiwara Chika hugged the person involved in her arms and began to act coquettishly towards the lower-grade junior.

"How could I～, Miko-chan must want to play too, right? You haven't really integrated into us yet."

Iino Miko: "…"

How could she integrate into this chaotic student council!

Although after rational thinking, she could understand that the chairman and the others were definitely not the kind of people who could do that kind of terrible thing in the sacred student council room, but the scene at that time didn't allow her to think too much, especially the posture was so…

In, in short! As long as it's not doing that kind of thing, playing games or something is still acceptable! Iino Miko thought in her heart.

Even she herself could hardly detect that she, who originally scoffed at this kind of improper development, would actually accept it for the reason of "as long as it's not doing ○乱 things," and even vaguely look forward to it.

"Si, since it's a welcome party, then there's no way around it…"

"…"

This coy reaction was too easy to understand, completely able to see through this junior's thoughts, so Xia Chuanzou and Kaguya Shinomiya exchanged glances, exchanging their eyes.

"Since that's the case, can Secretary Fujiwara please introduce the rules of the game first?"

Although satisfying the junior's expectations was good, it also depended on the situation. If this idiot octopus head took out that kind of dogshit game last time, he would definitely refuse righteously, believing that Kaguya would also maintain the same opinion as him.

"The rules of the game are very simple, wait a moment…" Fujiwara Chika said, opening the box of board games, and then taking out a card from it, handing it to him with her back turned.

"For example, the chairman is now holding a card, and then showing it to everyone, then the chairman can't make the actions described in the text above, oh, if you do, it's a failure…"

"I see, it's really simple…"

"Yeah, you're bombed." Fujiwara Chika pointed to the card.

Xia Chuanzou then turned the card over and found the words "say simple" written on it.

"…"

Great! He completely understood the rules of the game!

"Then let's start the game!" Fujiwara Chika cheered, and then blindly selected a few cards, covering them on the table, "The winner can ask the chairman to do something!"

"Hey, why are you using me as a bet again? This isn't fair, if I win…" Xia Chuanzou protested.

"Then we'll each promise the chairman a condition."

"Okay, that's very fair." Xia Chuanzou nodded.

Things should be like this, he also has the right to ask for a reward, otherwise there's no motivation at all.

"Since that's the case, then I'll participate too." A strange voice suddenly sounded from behind.

"Ishigami?" Xia Chuanzou turned around and saw that Ishigami Yu had appeared behind him at some point, but Shirogane didn't follow along, "Why even you…"

"No, Chairman, don't misunderstand, I'm just interested in the game itself, after all, I've played it with friends many times…"

"With friends…"

"Friends…"

"Unbelievable…"

"I know I know! You mean imaginary friends, right?! I've seen those introductions, saying that every lonely person…" Fujiwara Chika raised her small hand and began to popularize.

"It's not that kind of thing, you idiot senior! It's real people, people!" Ishigami Yu protested.

"Don't say it, Ishigami, I… I can understand you." Xia Chuanzou patted him on the shoulder, after all, he had that experience before…

"Why even the chairman…" Ishigami Yu looked very hurt, but he was still trying his best to struggle, "Even me, I can meet one or two like-minded people online…"

"Sure enough, it turns out they're netizens." Xia Chuanzou nodded, and the others also looked enlightened.

"Chairman, what does netizen mean?" Only Kaguya Shinomiya, who never touched electronic devices much, asked a question.

"It's the kind of… on the Internet, they don't know each other's background, but they can chat about all kinds of messy things, sharing what they think and their daily lives with a smile, through electronic devices." Xia Chuanzou popularized to the germ-free young lady.

"Isn't that very empty? Randomly finding an unknown person on the Internet, and talking to them, there's also a risk of exposure, right? I feel like it's better to find a 'wailing wall'…"

"Uh, you can't say that…" Xia Chuanzou tried to explain, after all, netizens or something are very interesting, the source of daily happiness or something, there are many things to explain, but he didn't know where to start.

And Ishigami Yu was already about to weather into crumbs, still muttering a few words in his mouth "empty" "wailing wall" "…"

"Cough cough… In short, let's play the game first, don't worry about other things." Feeling that if he didn't pull away the topic, Ishigami might really be shot down and unable to rise again.

"Damn it, if that's the case, then I must win against you all and show you the results of my training!"

"..."

This kind of thing can't really be called training, can it, Ishigami-kun? Natsukawa Kanade really wanted to retort, but after seeing his miserable state, she decided against it.

So, the number of people participating in the game was decided, and then came the card display.

Natsukawa Kanade - Spoke in English.

Shinomiya Kaguya - Expressed her affection.

Iino Miko - Remained silent for 20 seconds.

Fujiwara Chika - Talked about time.

And Ishigami Yu - Breathed.
