Manga Born to Be King

　　"Hey, Ya, didn't you say we knew each other when we were kids?"

　　Hearing his sudden mention of the past, Ya stopped the fork in her hand.

　　"Hey... um, yes. Akatsuki... but my first love. But didn't you even forget about being in the hospital?"

　　"It's the aftermath of the injury... I'm sorry too, I lost a lot of important memories."

　　"It's okay, it's because of a car accident anyway, there's nothing I can do about it."

　　Yawei smiled and shook her head.

　　"I'm also very happy to meet you again - but, since I forgive you for forgetting me, you have to pay double for this!"

　　"Repay? How?"

　　Ya still hasn't changed, she's still an unpredictable woman.It's cute though.

　　Nangong Xiao reached out and stroked Ya's head.

　　"Meow?!"

　　Ya's eyes widened, and she made a sound like a frightened cat, and the twin ponytails tied on either side of her head also swayed.

　　"I know, Princess. In order to make up for the mistake of forgetting my memories, please let me treat you to a dessert."

　　"Oh! Don't treat people like children~"

　　"It doesn't mean that."

　　Although she pursed her lips, Ya still turned her attention to the menu on the wall of the cafeteria.

　　"Then strawberry cake and tiramisu and matcha ice cream."

　　"Are you going to eat it all?...You'll gain weight."

　　"Dessert stomach is another stomach, so it doesn't matter! Okay, hurry up and make up for it~! Men have to keep their word~"

　　"Really, I really can climb along the pole..."

　　After finishing the meal, Nangong Xiao walked slowly towards the food stamp vending machine.

　　"Hey, Nangong, why are you shopping with a stinky face?"

　　Looking back, the first thing that jumped into view was a jet-black triangular hat with a pointed top.Looking down, I saw bright eyes behind the round glasses looking up at him.

　　"Buddy."

　　A senior student, Mea Sagara, is still wandering around the campus in the shape of a witch with a three-cornered hat and a black cape as usual.

　　"It's already July, don't you feel hot when you're still wearing a cloak?"

　　"This is also for the promotion of 'Rilikalu☆sisters'. You can't lose to the devilish sun."

　　Mei is the owner of a coffee shop called "Sister Coffee", and the waiters are all dressed in cosplay clothes.

　　"You really worked hard for cosplay..."

　　"Promoting my shop to all the students in the school is a big mission. Nangong also gives up this unpalatable and expensive canteen food and goes to my shop. The strawberry cake is only [-] yuan."

　　"It's obviously more expensive than the cafeteria!"

　　"Please consider my sister's love, it will be very cheap."

　　"I always feel like I'm being ripped off... But then again, you have to tell Ya what you're saying, and say more. I have to invite her to eat now."

　　I glanced at where Ya was sitting, and saw that she had picked up the fork specially used for eating cakes early.

　　"Come on~"

　　She banged the table anxiously with the end of her fork.

　　"—Nangong is really working hard."

　　Ya Yi looked at Nangong Xiao sympathetically.

　　"Yeah - can Mei understand my hard work?"

　　"As the boss, I also have to take care of the sisters in the store. It's not easy to communicate with girls."

　　"Is that so... We've all worked hard. But now that we have companions who can understand each other, it feels a lot better."

　　Nangong Xiao, who felt connected with Ya Yi, felt a warmth in her chest.

　　"Well, that's exactly it. Nangong, let's do our best!"

　　"Ah."

　　"If that's the case, then you can invite me to eat strawberry cake."

　　"..., were you listening to me just now?"

　　In the end, Nangong Xiao bought two snacks and returned to the table with Ya Yi.

　　"Wow! Thank you Xiao!"

　　Ya immediately took the matcha ice cream and ate it.Mei stared at such Ya.

　　"Naggi, compared to the cake in the school cafeteria, the cake from 'Lilikalu☆sisters' is more delicious."

　　"Hey, although the cakes in the sister's shop are also delicious, the strawberry cake in the school cafeteria is my recommendation!"

　　"What did you say?! Since you said that, please come to the store and eat it again. It will be so delicious that you can swallow your tongue!"

　　In this way, Mei and Ya are arguing about which cake is more delicious while eating dessert.But this kind of dialogue is meaningless to Nangong Xiao.

　　——Speaking of which, I always felt like they were bickering junior high school students.

　　Looking at the two who were also petite, Nangong Xiao couldn't help but think so.

　　"Speaking of which, Mei seems to have said that she and my sister were friends before."

　　Nangong Xiao, who suddenly remembered this matter, asked.

　　When the owner of the Yayi store was her mother, Nangong Xiao's younger sister seemed to have been there.Taking that as an opportunity, the two became good playmates.However, Mei later had to go to the United States, and this friendship was interrupted.

　　"Huh? Ah, yeah... that's it? Asking this all of a sudden."

　　"Just wondering how the kid is doing now."

　　Nangong Xiao set a trap between his words.

　　Yayi has also played the fake sister before. After listening to the real sister about what happened at the funeral, she also played the "sister" in front of Nangong Xiao.

　　In other words, Mei knew who the "sister" who appeared on the day of the funeral was.

　　"Who knows. Anyway, let's do it somewhere."

　　Ya Yi still pretended to be stupid.

　　Although she knew the real body of "sister", she kept covering it up for the other party.I am afraid that once the "sister" who is an illegitimate daughter is exposed, she will not be accepted and hurt.

　　Because she understood Ya Yi's tenderness, Nangong Xiao did not forcefully ask...

　　"What kind of child is he? As a friend, how do you feel for Senpai?"

...... 0

　　"Maybe I've said it before, it's a child who really wants to be protected - she's like a real sister to me."

　　"Like my sister, right..."

　　Nangong Xiao couldn't help but think of Yu Rina's face again.Will Mei's former good friend be Yurina?Indeed, now in the third year of junior high school, she looks like a younger sister even compared to the petite Mei.

　　"Well, the conclusion is that the desserts of 'Lilikalu☆sisters' are the best."

　　Perhaps in order not to let Nangong Xiao notice her sister's real body, Ya Yi suddenly changed the subject and made a willful conclusion.

　　"No, the cream puffs won't lose either."

　　It seemed that Xin Naizhi, who had just finished eating, came over and glanced at the table.

　　"That's great. Are you having a cake tea party? Then I want a butter cake."

　　"Please listen to me too..."

　　At this time, there was a loud noise from the window of the cafeteria.Upon closer inspection, it turned out that several students were lying by the window looking out.

　　"Ah, Xiao, look! That child is so beautiful!"

　　Ya noticed it too, and called out to a person in front of the school square.The girl in the black sailor's suit was walking with the corners of her skirt flying, her face being blocked by the parasol in her hand.Under the strong sunlight of early summer, the black of the uniform is more eye-catching.Her back was straight and straight, like a lady's.

　　In an instant, the parasol moved, revealing the girl's profile.Clear and three-dimensional features and neat short hair.

　　——Isn’t this Yurina!

　　Nangong Xiao suddenly stood up and stared blankly at the girl.

　　"Ah~ Xiao, look at that child, it's so nasty!"

　　Ya screamed sharply.

　　"I'm not dumbfounded! That's someone I know—how could she come to school."

　　Yurina just walked away gradually, and could no longer be seen from the window.She once said that she wanted to study at Shenliuyuan Academy next year, so she must have come to go through the formalities.

　　"I'll go check the situation."

　　Nangong Xiao, who always felt very concerned, immediately left the cafeteria to chase Yu Rina..

Chapter 593

　　This is a room about one-third the size of a normal classroom, with a long table for meetings, and a table for the student union staff on the opposite side.The student council president Aina was sitting inside, with the vice president Rinka Kuni, and Yurina standing in front of them both.

　　"Yurina!"

　　As soon as he entered the room, Nangong Xiao shouted.Looking back to see Nangong Xiao, Yu Rina's expression suddenly brightened.

　　"What's the matter? Come to our school suddenly, don't you have to go to class?"

　　"My school had shortened school hours before the summer break, so it was dismissed in the morning."

　　"That's it~ She said that she will come to our school for apprenticeship in the future~"
