Strength comes first, Horikita Suzune is my childhood sweetheart

After telling Bai Yuan everything about her theft, completely and without missing a word, Ichinose Honami felt completely relieved, as if a huge rock had been lifted from her heart.

Ichinose Honami has been hiding her criminal past, which has made her depressed, worried, and uneasy over time.

Now, Ichinose Honami has a listener in Shirafuchi by his side. She tells him about her criminal experiences that she has been hiding in her heart, and some of the accumulated pressure is released.

"Qiangong, the hairpin we saw just now is the same hairpin that I once stole and returned. That's why I lost my composure when I saw it."

Ichinose Honoki whispered this while gently shaking her body from side to side. Her action seemed unintentional, but in fact she wanted to get closer to Shirafuchi.

It would be even better if my shoulder could 'accidentally' touch his arm.

"Qiangong, you... do you despise me, a thief who used to steal things?"

Bai Yuan turned his head to look at Ichinose Honoki, whose body was swaying slightly from side to side. He said softly, "Ichinose, you asked me before how I saw the person who stole something."

“Yeah.” Ichinose Hoba stopped swinging her body and lowered her eyes.

"I answered you at that time. No one can guarantee that they will not make mistakes or commit crimes in their lifetime."

"As long as you know you are wrong and work hard to correct it, then there will be no problem."

"So Ichinose, you know you're wrong."

Ichinose Hoba looked at Shirafuchi seriously, and she said firmly, word by word, "I. Know. I. Was. Wrong."

"So you tried hard to correct it."

“I’m working hard!”

Bai Yuan smiled at Ichinose Hoba and said, "That's all right."

Chapter 137: Qian Gong classmate, please lend me your shoulder

The smile that Bai Yuan showed to Ichinose Hoba was handsome and gentle, like a ray of sunshine piercing through the dark clouds, making Ichinose Hoba's heart warm and feel extremely at peace.

With a slight swing of her body, Ichinose Honami's soft arm rested on Shirafuchi's shoulder.

"Qiangong, can I borrow your shoulder for a moment?"

"Well, yes."

Bai Yuan's answer made Ichinose Hoba close her blue eyes that were full of shyness and uneasiness. She leaned her head lightly on Bai Yuan's shoulder, and her nose was filled with the tranquility emanating from him.

At this time, because Ichinose Hoba was leaning against Bai Yuan, her soft pink hair naturally fell on his body. A few naughty strands of hair fell on Bai Yuan's neck, giving him a slight itchy sensation.

"Ichinose."

"Yeah." Ichinose Hoba responded softly to Bai Yuan with her eyes closed.

"Don't tell others about the hairpin easily. If bad people know your past, they may use it to threaten and control you." Bai Yuan said softly.

"I won't tell anyone."

But, Chimiya-san, you are an exception.

The only exception.

"Besides, everyone in this school is a good person. There won't be such a bad person to threaten me with something like this."

"How come there is nothing left? Look at the vice president of the student union, Nan Yunya. He brought a lot of people to cause trouble for me before."

"If he knew about your experiences, he would definitely find an opportunity to threaten you." Bai Yuan said solemnly.

Ichinose Hoba will soon join the student council with Shirafuchi, so before Ichinose Hoba meets the yellow-haired, playboy and scumbag Nangumo Masaru, Shirafuchi has to establish the image of Ichinose Hoba as a bad guy.

"Well, that vice president is indeed a bad guy."

"So, there are still bad people in this school. Ichinose, you better keep your mouth shut and don't tell others your secrets."

"Okay, okay, I'll remember that."

Ichinose Hoba, who leaned her head on Shirabuchi's shoulder, smiled brightly. It seemed that she was very happy with Shirabuchi's caring reminder.

But looking at Ichinose Honami's smile, I wonder if she has taken Bai Yuan's reminder to heart.

Ichinose Hoba leaned on Shirabuchi's shoulder, her face showing peace and tranquility. The atmosphere between him and her was particularly peaceful and warm. Unfortunately, the appearance of the two of them caused a subtle change in the atmosphere between Shirabuchi and Ichinose Hoba.

Kanzaki Ryuji and Shibata Sa, who had both finished lunch, walked out from the side road. Not only did they see Ichinose Honami leaning on Shirafuchi's shoulder, they also immediately made eye contact with Shirafuchi.

"..." Shibata Sa was stunned.

"..." Kanzaki Ryuji looked calm.

Bai Yuan looked at the two of them silently. Ichinose Honoki, with her eyes closed, was still leaning on Bai Yuan's shoulder. She now only felt the reliance and support given by Bai Yuan, and was completely unaware of what was happening in the outside world.

Shibata Sa felt that the flower of his secret love had died in the womb before it even took root and sprouted!

Before, he and Kanzaki Ryuji saw Ichinose Honami and Shirabuchi talking and laughing as they entered the restaurant. That only showed that they had a good relationship, but it was not enough to prove that they were in a relationship!

But now...

Now Ichinose Hoba is leaning on this boy's shoulder with a happy look on her face!

Even if Shibata Sa wanted to convince herself that Ichinose Honami and Shirabuchi were just ordinary friends, she couldn't do it!

Bai Yuan recognized the two boys. They were both in Class B of the first year, and were in the same class as Ichinose Honami.

"Um, good afternoon, both of you."

"Good afternoon." Kanzaki Ryuji responded to Bai Yuan's greeting.

"...Hello to you too." Shibata Sa replied to Bai Yuan with tears in her eyes, "We will leave now and not disturb your date."

Although Shibata Sa has a crush on Ichinose Hoba, after he knows that Ichinose Hoba has a boyfriend named Shirabuchi, he will silently wish her happiness.

Well, the people in Class B are really little angels.

The sound of Shirafuchi's conversation with Kanzaki Ryuji and Shibata Sa made Ichinose Honami's long eyelashes tremble slightly, and she opened her eyes.

"..."

After seeing Ryuji Kanzaki and Sa Shibata from her class, Ichinose Honami's fair face suddenly flushed with a charming blush.

Ichinose Hoba, who was feeling shy, instantly raised her head which was resting on Shirafuchi's shoulder.

"Um...ah haha, you two are also here at the mall to buy things today, what...what a coincidence." Ichinose Honami said with a blushing face.

"Um……"

"Qiangong-san, it's getting late. I'll take my leave now!"

"Yeah." Bai Yuan smiled at the shy and flustered Ichinose Hoba and said, "Take care, Ichinose."

"it is good."

Ichinose Hoba gave a shy smile, then she waved to Kanzaki Ryuji and Shibata Sa, and also said goodbye to them and left in a hurry.

The situation where she leaned on Shirafuchi's shoulder was seen by the boys in the same class. This was something that Ichinose Honami had never encountered before. Now she was very shy and just wanted to get out of the sight of Kanzaki Ryuji and the others as soon as possible.

Kanzaki Ryuji looked at Ichinose Honami's hurriedly departing back, and then he looked at Shirafuchi who was sitting on the bench.

"Qiangong-san, we are sorry to bother you."

"Don't be embarrassed about this." Bai Yuan shook his head.

Rather, it could be said that Kanzaki Ryuji and the others were of great help, because Shirabuchi was not sure how long Ichinose Honami would rely on him.

Bai Yuan didn't dislike being leaned on by Ichinose Hoba like this. On the contrary, he quite liked Ichinose Hoba's leaning on him. Bai Yuan liked her softness and breath.

However, the time was already 12:47, and there were only thirteen minutes left until the meeting time agreed with Karuizawa Megumi.

Shirafuchi, who doesn't want to let Karuizawa Kei down, is still struggling with how to say goodbye to Ichinose Honami.

Now, Shirafuchi doesn't have to worry about it anymore. The arrival of Kanzaki Ryuji and Shibata Sa made Ichinose Honami say goodbye to Shirafuchi in panic and shyness.

Bai Yuan said hello to Kanzaki Ryuji and Shibata Sa, then walked towards the entrance of the shopping mall.

"Shibata, let's go. Didn't you say you were going to the video game store to play for a while?"

"No more playing, let's go back to the dormitory and sleep QAQ."

"……Fine."

Feeling heartbroken, Shibata Sa leaves the Keyaki Shopping Center with Kanzaki Ryuji.

Bai Yuan arrived at the entrance of the shopping mall and sat on a bench under the shade of a beech tree, closing his eyes and waiting for Karuizawa Kei to come.

Chapter 138 Karuizawa Megumi: Guess Who I Am

Time passed by minute by minute, and Karuizawa Kei, wearing more mature clothes, arrived at the entrance of Keyaki Shopping Center.

Judging from the fact that Karuizawa Kei was panting, she must have rushed here in a hurry.

"Oh, I was so busy changing my clothes and dressing up that I almost missed the appointment with Qian Gong. Where is he...ah, I saw him!"

Looking around, Karuizawa Hui saw Bai Yuan resting with his eyes closed under the shade of a tree, and her fair face couldn't help but break into a happy smile.

After discovering that Bai Yuan was closing his eyes, Karuizawa Hui smiled mischievously and walked over quietly.

Karuizawa Hui came to the position behind Bai Yuan and stretched out her white hands to cover his eyes.

"Guess who I am." Karuizawa Kei's smiling voice came into Bai Yuan's ears.

"..." Bai Yuan was silent for a while, then he smiled and said, "Kushida-san, is that you?"

"no!"

Karuizawa Megumi replied angrily, how could she be the guy with big breasts!

Ah!

So angry!

Give you another chance!

"Then you must be Shiina."

"Neither!"

Who is Shiina?

It seems like Chimiya-san knows a lot of girls!

I'll give you a second chance.

"Horikita?"

"Not at all!"

Her tone was so sweet, how could it be that ice cube!

This is the third chance, please, please, you must guess that it’s me!

"..."

Bai Yuan kept saying other people's names, but he just didn't say the three words "Karuizawa". Now even if Karuizawa Kei was a fool, she would know that this boy was teasing her.

The angry Karuizawa Hui loosened her hands that were covering Bai Yuan's eyes. She came to the front of Bai Yuan, put her hands on her hips, and said angrily, "Qiangong, you must have guessed that it was me, but you just didn't say it!"

"Oh, I really didn't guess it was you, Karuizawa-san." Bai Yuan said with a smile.

Karuizawa Kei's puffy cheeks flattened, and her bright eyes were misty. Her aggrieved look made Bai Yuan realize that the girl with honey-colored hair might be about to cry.

You seem very strong, but why do you start crying when you are teased? You are so embarrassing.

Bai Yuan spread his hands and said, "Alright, alright, I'll be honest. When you covered my eyes, I knew the person behind me was you."

"I knew it!"

The aggrieved Karuizawa Megumi immediately showed a bright smile, and with a faint mist in her eyes, she looked particularly cute.

Bai Yuan looked at Karuizawa Kei in front of him.
