After deciding to give up, he started to gain popularity

"Ms. Kaguya! I want to remind you that it is already 11: pm. It is time for you to rest."

"But I can't sleep!" Miss Sha Diao suddenly sat up and said coquettishly. It seemed as if many small flowers bloomed on her head, and the room was suddenly filled with a pink girlish scent.

"Hehe, the president has held my hand, what will we do next..."

"Miss, excuse me for being blunt, but instead of thinking about this all the time, why not send a message to Master Natsukawa and invite him out tomorrow?" Hayasaka Ai pointed at the phone that Kaguya had been holding in her hand and reminded her.

Her silly little girl has been holding her cell phone tightly since she came back, saying that she wants to wait for Master Xiachuan to send her a message.

It’s just a dream!

It was just holding hands, and the young lady took the initiative to approach him. Do you want to win over that scumbag? Miss, don't be so naive!

"Oh no, this won't work. Inviting the president out to play or something like that is progressing too fast!"

"..." Hayasaka Ai was speechless, thinking to herself, you've already held hands but you still complain that going out together is too fast, you think that holding hands between a man and a woman is easier than inviting someone to go out together, right?

As expected of the eldest daughter in her family, she is so sterile.

"What's with that expression on your face? There's definitely nothing wrong with holding hands. It's really hard to go out and play together. You never know what will happen..." As he spoke, he rolled over on the bed again, making a "yayaya" sound.

"..."But you were rolling around on the bed just now because you were holding someone else's hand!

Hayasaka Ai sighed, not knowing what to do.

The eldest daughter of our family is completely hopeless and has completely fallen for that scumbag president.

Originally, it would be fine if the other party liked the eldest lady, she could just keep giving advice and assisting him, but after so many attempts, she had no idea what the other party's attitude was.

He said he didn’t like Miss Kaguya, but he kept teasing her and keeping close to her. Today, he even went to “flirt” with her despite being misunderstood. He said he liked her, but he confessed his love to her, a maid, before...

Could it be that he really wants to be a scumbag who has multiple girlfriends at the same time?

But the information obtained from previous investigations was not like this, which is very depressing.

Hayasaka Ai had a premonition that her young lady's love journey would be extremely bumpy.

……

At the same time, Natsukawa Kanade, who had been lying on his bed for an hour or so, couldn't fall asleep. His mind was full of thoughts about the time in the afternoon when Kaguya Shinomiya came up to him and held his fingers.

Shinomiya... Could it be that she likes him?

But shouldn’t the one she likes be Baiyin Yuxing?

Or has he been misunderstanding all along, and the person Shinomiya likes is actually him?

"..."

Confused, in short, I am extremely confused.

At this moment, Natsukawa Kanade's brain was really about to burn out, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't believe the possibility that Shinomiya Kaguya actually liked him.

He would even rather believe that Fujiwara Chika likes him than believe that Shinomiya Kaguya, who always competes with him with a cold face, likes him.

Not to mention liking her, before this afternoon he even suspected that the other party didn't have any affection for him at all.

How do you want him to think about this?

The cold-faced subordinate who used to hate me to death suddenly showed me a gentle and beautiful smile one day. The reason behind it turned out to be that he liked me?

This level of fantasy is enough to write a light novel.

At least Natsukawa Kanado was more inclined to think that the other party might have suddenly fallen ill and damaged his brain, or that he was just pretending to be attentive but had other intentions.

Unless Kaguya Shinomiya is really good at disguising herself and can keep her true feelings hidden deep in her heart, she didn't behave like that towards the person she liked in the original work...

Besides this, there was something else that concerned him even more——

He seemed... no longer to "like" them as much as before.

If it were the him before, when Kaguya suddenly smiled gently and said to him, "President, what's the matter?", he would have confessed to her without hesitation.

The transformation from "Ice Kaguya-Princess" to being able to smile is enough to prove that Kaguya really cares about him. Maybe she has a good impression of him, or maybe she really likes him, but in any case he will definitely give her an A.

But now... I dare not.

I dare not confess my feelings, for fear that if the other party rejects me, we will no longer be able to be friends; I also dare not test my sincerity, for fear that if the other party really agrees, I will become even more confused...

So I replaced it with something else.

I said to the other person, "Please continue to be my vice president" instead of "I like you, please date me."

On the surface, it looked like he was backing off and not daring to confess, but in reality, this was a sign of being more serious.

Just like he thought that day, his feelings for Kaguya Shinomiya were probably not true love, but probably something else.

In the past, he would definitely firmly believe that his love was real, and even if it was not sincere, it would become true as long as they continued to interact. But now he feels that this is a wrong idea.

Maybe he really grew up, but it is more likely that everyone taught him this truth -

It is a mistake in itself to interact with others with insincere love, even if he has no other purpose but is simply not clear about his true feelings.

A fake is a fake. Even if it becomes real, it is just some disguise.

Therefore, he dared not test it again unless one day he could correctly determine his true intentions.

When that day comes, he will no longer be humble and afraid of being rejected, but will be able to stand in front of his beloved girl and say to her loudly and proudly: "I like you, please date me!"

Of course it would be best if she agreed. He would pick her up and spin around a few times to express his joy. Even if she was rejected, it didn't matter. He would smile and wish her to find true love.

Maybe he will hide in a deserted corner and cry bitterly afterwards, but that will definitely be his true feelings rather than regretting that all his long-term efforts have been wasted.

Well, as expected, he really grew up.

Even if he is no longer as decisive as before and becomes more anxious about gains and losses, this is the only way to prove that he has considered more and that he cares more about emotional matters...

"Good night……"

The me of the past.

064. Farewell to the angels, welcome to the devils

Judging solely by the standards of a person living alone, Natsukawa Kanade undoubtedly has a textbook answer - he has a regular schedule, eats healthily, pays attention to personal hygiene, and does not often bring women back to his home.

The picture is a perfect high school boy living alone.

However, the fact is, if he doesn't live a healthy life, the angel girl next door will point fingers at his poor performance and forcefully intervene in his life, trying to turn him into a loser...

Naturally, he didn't want to be a useless person anymore, so he tried hard to be a better person.

At least, he had to do this in front of Miss Angel, who had become more and more outrageous recently and entered his house without even saying hello.

"Good morning, Kanade." Shiina Mahiru, who was watching TV, immediately trotted over when she saw him.

"...Good morning." Natsukawa Kanade responded while yawning.

He was no longer surprised even if he saw the pretty cook suddenly appear in his house and prepare breakfast for him.

Even while eating the nutritious breakfast she had carefully prepared, Natsukawa Kanade still had time to think about something even more rude - could it be that Shiina is also a bit tsundere?

For example, although she said that she wanted him to be prepared, in fact, Miss Angel's recent actions were no different from usual. At most, she had evolved from only cooking dinner for him to occasionally cooking breakfast and lunch for him, and cleaning the house for him.

I feel like if it's just these things, I can't say I need to be prepared...

But to be honest, he was really shocked at first and was reluctant to agree to it, but he couldn't resist Shiina's cute and coquettish look and angry mood, so he had to let her do what she wanted.

Some embarrassing things happened during this period. For example, when Miss Angel was about to wash the clothes that Natsukawa Sora had placed in the basket, she found a pair of underwear in a strange state and was startled.

After that, she blushed and scolded Xiachuan Zou harshly and ran back to her home. From then on, she refused to help him wash clothes no matter what.

Although he didn't mean that originally.

"Do you have any plans for today?"

"Well, I made an appointment to go out with a friend." Xiachuan Zou nodded.

Miss Angel has been acting more and more like a housekeeper lately. If he hadn't done some of the things himself, he would have felt like he was being turned into a useless person.

"Well... be careful on the road, and remember to message me when you come back." Shiina Mahiru nodded slightly, but did not ask him about the specific situation.

If you interfere too much in the private life of someone you care about, he will be afraid and stay away from you.

"Uh... Shiina doesn't have any plans for today?" Natsukawa Kanade turned his eyes away slightly, not daring to look her in the eye.

The gentle and virtuous Miss Angel still had too much influence on him, especially when she had just woken up. She was so warm and approachable that she was dazzling, which made it easy for him to misunderstand whether he had "fallen in love" with her again.

"I was planning on spending it with Kanade, but since you're busy, I'll go find Kato-san."

"Kato?" Natsukawa Kanade was slightly stunned. He didn't expect to hear Kato Megumi's name from Shiina's mouth. "Are you two so close?"

If I remember correctly, the first time they met was just last weekend, right? It's only been a week and Kato has already conquered Angel?

It's just like you, Kato, Natsukawa Kanade praised silently in her heart.

"It's okay. We've been chatting on Line these days." Miss Angel's pretty face was red, and she looked quite embarrassed.

Natsukawa Zou didn't understand why she was like this. Isn't it a good thing to make friends?

However, there were so many things he didn't understand, and this was not the first thing he didn't understand, so he continued to finish the food in front of him.

After finishing his meal, Xia Chuan Zou tidied his clothes and went out.

"I'm going."

"Safe travels."

……

I took the tram, rode a few stops and walked for a while, and soon arrived at the place where I had an appointment.

A lovely girl stood there looking forward to it, and it seemed that she had been waiting here for a long time.

"Senior, you are finally here!" The little devil school girl in a white shirt and a brown striped skirt suddenly appeared. It was Isshiki Caiyu.

"Senior, you are too slow. I almost fell asleep waiting!"

"I'm not late, you came too early." Xia Chuan Zou shook his cell phone at the other party. The time on it showed 8:55, which was almost the agreed time for the two.

"Hey, for a date or something, if you arrive later than a girl, you're considered late!" So the little devil schoolgirl started to make excuses.

Xiachuan Zou was keenly aware that something was wrong.

"Dating?"

"Yes, a date." she replied.

"I'm going back."

So Natsukawa Kanade turned around and was about to leave, but was quickly grabbed by the corner of his clothes by Isshiki Caiyu.

"It's a rehearsal! It's like collecting materials or something, so that I can get familiar with the dating process..."

"..." Now Natsukawa Zou had no way to refuse.

However, he still thought that it would be better if he had refused at the beginning, but he did value the list of supporters more...

All I can say is that if you want to gain something, you must pay for it.

Fortunately, he was familiar with "collecting materials" and used to do it with senior students, Eriri and others in the club.

"Where are we going? I have to warn you in advance that I'm not very familiar with the shops in this area." Xiachuan Kanade said truthfully.

"Oh, it's okay. I have made a detailed plan. Senior, just follow my footsteps." The little devil schoolgirl looked very confident, but what she said made Natsukawa Kanade want to complain.

Since you have already planned it out, why not just go and find the person you want to date and do it? Why bother asking him to do some rehearsal first?

It is really a bit unnecessary.

But no matter what I thought, my body still followed obediently.

The first stop for the two was a movie theater.
