Looking into Xia Yan's sincere eyes, Kaguya felt both angry and amused, secretly wondering what she had been thinking.
Kaguya picked up the movie ticket and said, "Okay, then I'll give you a chance to make amends."
After watching a wonderful romantic movie, the two discussed the plot, bought a double ice cream for 4.9, grabbed a lot of Kaguya's favorite plush toys, and played around like a couple deeply in love. Kaguya hadn't felt this kind of happiness in a long time. Was this what a date was like?
It was getting late. Time to go home. Just as Xia Yan was about to explain what happened yesterday at the door, Kaguya suddenly stopped him with a kiss, as if nothing else mattered at that moment.
Chapter Sixty-One: Discovering the Secret
The bright moonlight shone on the earth, and the dim yellow streetlights cast long, shadowy figures of two people—Natsuhiko and Kaguya. In this romantic atmosphere, their shadows stretched out very long.
Xia Yan was at a loss for what to do. His mind went blank, and he stared straight at Kaguya, who was so close to him. He didn't know what kind of strange feeling this was.
After a while, Kaguya finally pushed Natsuhiko away. Kaguya's face was as red as a ripe apple. She looked at Natsuhiko and said shyly, "You... don't tell anyone." After saying that, Kaguya ran out. She was probably too embarrassed to stay any longer. Helpless, Natsuhiko had no choice but to follow her.
Chika was home alone. She had already prepared a table full of fragrant dishes that Kaguya and Natsuhiko liked, waiting for them to come back, but they didn't arrive for a long time.
Knock knock knock, knock knock knock, knock knock knock. A series of knocks came from outside the door, and Qianhua hurriedly ran to open it.
"Here you are, here you are. Why are you so late? What have you been doing?" He said, taking the bag from Kaguya's hand.
Haha, Xia Yan is making it up to me by taking me to the movies. I wasn't planning on forgiving him, but seeing his sincerity, I'll make an exception and forgive him this time," Kaguya said with a laugh.
"Hey, hey, hey, what's wrong with you two? You never invite me! You didn't even invite me to the movie!" Qianhua muttered angrily, hands on her hips.
This time it's different, I'm making amends, I'll definitely bring you next time, hahaha," Xia Yan said from the side.
"Alright, alright, I'll forgive you for now. Look! I made these dishes that you two love, all by myself." Qianhua pointed to the colorful dishes on the table.
Kaguya and Natsuhiko, who had been walking all day, were starving. Seeing the fragrant dishes, they immediately rushed over! "Wow! This is all my favorite food! Chika's cooking is amazing!"
"That's right, this dish is good, the taste and color are both good, it's just a bit cold," Xia Yan said softly, hands on his hips.
"Hmph, you're the ones who should be talking! I've been waiting for you for so long!" Qianhua complained.
Kaguya couldn't wait to sit down. "Alright, alright, let me enjoy this delicious food!"
The scene was one of wolfing down the food, resembling a battlefield.
After finishing his meal, Xia Yan returned to his room and began working on some things related to the planned club activities.
Chika and Kaguya were eating cucumber-flavored potato chips on the sofa.
Ah, I'm so full, I need to go to the bathroom first. Chika said, rubbing her round belly.
Chika had just entered the restroom when her phone rang.
Hearing this, Kaguya, who was watching TV nearby, picked up her phone out of kindness and prepared to go to the bathroom to give it to Chika. However, Kaguya, who was very curious, remembered that Chika had been looking at her phone a lot lately and hadn't put it down. She really wanted to see who was texting Chika so late at night.
She held the phone for a long time, pondering over 29, before finally bringing it close to her face.
"Ishigami Yu! Isn't that the freshman who just joined the student council and is now the student council secretary?" Kaguya blurted out unconsciously.
Chika, who was in the toilet, seemed to suddenly gain super hearing and rushed out of the toilet.
Upon seeing Kaguya holding her phone, he ran straight over to her.
"Ah, Kaguya! Kaguya, how... how could you look at my phone!" Chika shouted, snatching the phone from Kaguya's hand. Her face flushed slightly, as if some secret had been discovered.
Chapter Sixty-Two Misunderstanding
"Haha, Chika, I didn't realize you were so quick to make your move, new student council member! Even our gorgeous Chika has made her move, leaving no chance for the other junior girls!" Kaguya joked.
Don't talk nonsense, Kaguya. We just have something important to say.
Chika ignored Kaguya's joke and became even more serious. Kaguya noticed that Chika was a little angry and quickly explained...
No, Chika, it's not what you think. I really didn't mean to see it.
Before Kaguya could explain, Chika made an excuse that she was sleepy and went back to her room to sleep.
Kaguya was very puzzled. What was wrong with Chika? How could the usually cheerful Chika have become like this? The two of them were usually so close that they would casually toss each other their phones. Why was she getting angry over such a small thing today?
Kaguya tossed and turned in bed, unable to understand why. Was there really a secret that she couldn't let anyone else know, not even herself?
It seems I was wrong. I need to think of a way to make Chika happy.
Kaguya fell asleep while thinking about it.
Early in the morning, the sounds of cooking could be heard coming from the kitchen.
Xia Yan stretched and rubbed his half-open eyes. Oh dear, it's that beautiful woman again today, ready to show off her cooking skills.
"What are you standing there for? Come help!" Kaguya said to Natsuhiko in an annoyed tone.
Hey you, you're yelling at me first thing in the morning. Have you forgotten who hugged and kissed me last night...?
Before Xia Yan could finish speaking, Kaguya covered his mouth.
Shh! I already told you not to talk nonsense! Kaguya's face instantly turned red.
"Okay, okay, this is our little secret," Xia Yan said softly.
Chika also came out of her room, looking listless, clearly having not slept well.
"Qianhua, you're awake! Come here, I made you a loving breakfast." She pulled out a chair from the dining table.
Qianhua, please don't take it to heart that I was wrong yesterday. Please forgive me since I got up so early to make you breakfast.
Seeing Kaguya's sincere expression, Chika nodded.
Kaguya finally breathed a sigh of relief, having managed to appease this rich young lady.
Xia Yan, keep going! We'll always be your support!
"It's the school's sports meet today," Xia Yan's little fangirl shouted loudly. Xia Yan simply turned around and gave a victory sign.
The young female fans were so captivated that they screamed loudly.
Xia Yan participated in the long jump and long-distance running events.
Xia Yan performed well in the first two sections, but seemed a bit preoccupied.
During the long-distance race, Xia Yan kept looking out of the track, searching for Kaguya.
Doesn't this guy know I'm a long-distance runner? Why isn't he cheering me on? Xia Yan thought to himself.
With a bang, Xia Yan and the other racers on the track burst into the air.
The crowd outside cheered for Xia Yan. But Kaguya, whom Xia Yan was waiting for, never arrived. While running, Xia Yan saw a figure and mistook it for Kaguya, which distracted him, and he came in second place.
After the match ended, the female fans gave Xia Yan water and encouraged him. Xia Yan pushed through the crowd to find Kaguya (so Zhao).
Kaguya was filing for the student council when, bored out of her mind, she saw the tomatoes on the table. Remembering that she had been so busy preparing breakfast for Chika that morning that she hadn't eaten any herself, she started eating the tomatoes. The juice from the tomatoes got on her hands, but she didn't pay attention and instead picked up a fruit knife to peel an apple. This scene was witnessed by Yu Ishigami, who had just entered.
Yu Ishigami glanced at the knife in Kaguya's hand and then at the red liquid. As someone who frequently reads novels, he mistakenly thought it was a murder case and was so frightened that he sat down on the ground.
Chapter Sixty-Three: Misunderstanding
"No, no, no... no... don't come any closer, let's talk this out... let's talk this out!" Yu Ishigami shouted as he slumped to the ground, his wallet falling out of his pocket.
A bewildered Kaguya saw Ishigami Yu slumped on the ground. Before she could even put down the fruit knife in her hand, she rushed over to help him up.
"Hey classmate, don't be afraid, I'm not..." Kaguya said softly as she walked away, afraid of startling him again.
Yu Ishigami saw her running towards him with a fruit knife, which further confirmed his belief that she was a murderous female demon.
He was so scared that his legs were trembling uncontrollably, and he kept muttering, "Please...please don't come any closer. I'll confess, I'll confess. I only ate one chicken leg and one apple today. The apple wasn't even sweet."
And...and I haven't showered for a week, and it doesn't taste good either, but I have money...I have money...but...I only took this much now, really...really, I mean it." Ishigami Yu held his head, his face turning pale with fright, and said nervously.
Kaguya was even more helpless, so she gently tossed the knife down to lower his guard.
Upon seeing this, Ishigami Yu quickly picked up his wallet from the ground and hurriedly rushed towards the door with his head down, just as he bumped into Shirogane Miyuki, who was about to push the door open and come in.
Shirogane Miyuki pushed Ishigami Yu away with a look of disgust.
Ishigami Yu hesitated for a moment, then looked up and saw it was him. He immediately hid behind him and pointed at the innocent Kaguya in a panic, saying...
Senior Shirogane Miyuki...she's a female demon! Let's run!
"I'm telling you, you've been watching too many sci-fi movies," Shirogane Miyuki said speechlessly.
Just then, Xia Yan, who had just finished the match, pushed open the door and walked in, asking what had happened.
What are you all doing? Xia Yan asked, looking puzzled.
Just as Ishigami Yu was about to launch into a tearful tirade, Shirogane Miyuki interrupted him.
It's nothing, it's nothing, just a misunderstanding. Let's get back to business.
Shirogane Miyuki put Ishigami Yu's matter aside and went to Natsuhiko's side to talk about the sports club's finances at the sports meet.
"Xia Yan, look, the sports meet is about to start. We need to discuss the sports department's expenses. We need to make preparations for the sports meet. The sports department's financial situation has been a bit tight lately, with expenses being a bit high. After I finish reading this, we need to raise some more funds."
Shirogane Miyuki and Natsuhiko sat down in their chairs. Shirogane Miyuki played with the pen in his hand and looked at Natsuhiko, saying something.
"Yes, I already knew about this a few days ago. After all, the sports meet is a big event, so it's normal for the expenses to be a bit tight. How about we have a meeting in the next few days to discuss the funding issue?"
Seeing that Xia Yan had already said so, Shirogane Miyuki had no choice but to say, "Alright, I'll make the arrangements in the next few days. But you have to be there. We not only need to discuss the funding issue, but also prepare for it. The sports meet is about to start, so we need to hurry up with our song."
“Yes, I know. Just let me know when the meeting is scheduled, and I’ll definitely be there,” Xia Yan replied to Bai Yin Yuxing.
"Oh, by the way, tell me about the financial expenditures for the sports meet. Let's see if there's anything wrong so we can discuss it at the meeting and delete anything that's not needed, since the budget is limited."
Xia Yan suddenly remembered this and said to Shirogane Miyuki.
Kaguya noticed that Natsuhiko and Shirogane Miyuki were talking about official business and ignoring her. She glanced at Ishigami Yu, who was standing there motionless, sighed, and left.
Chapter Sixty-Four: An Awkward Atmosphere
In the awkward atmosphere, Kaguya, who was standing there dumbfounded, saw that the two of them had no intention of paying attention to her, so she went to her chair, washed her hands at the sink, took out a coffee from the cabinet, picked up a cup from the table, and made herself a cup of coffee.
Shirogane Miyuki watched as Kaguya went to make coffee, while Natsuhiko was busy with his own work, no longer the playful banter they used to share. The awkward atmosphere made him feel somewhat at a loss, so he brought up other things to start a conversation.
Xia Yan, you did well in the high jump and long jump today, but your long-distance running performance was a bit off.
But Xia Yan didn't seem to understand his question. Shirogane Miyuki could only continue, "Right, Kaguya? You saw it too, didn't you? He's just not in his usual state today."
Kaguya didn't respond. So he helped Natsuhiko investigate, but it ended awkwardly as well.
Having calmed down, Ishigami Yu shouted as if trying to make his presence known, "So...so you all know each other?"
"Are you from a vampire family?" Ishigami Yu asked, his face full of doubt.
Shirogane Miyuki gave an awkward laugh. "Yes, we're all vampires. We all have missions to complete. You'd better keep this a secret." He then burst into laughter.
Xia Yan, who was sitting to the side, also smiled and shook his head.
