On the bench, Gui Xin was shaking her feet that couldn’t reach the ground, biting the juice straw with her silver teeth, and looking at the various passers-by with boredom.

Sitting next to her, Meng Gui Yanye lowered her head, her beautiful eyes drooping sadly, swaying with the shadows of the trees on the ground in the wind. She held the drink in her hands, half sipped, and did not move.

She didn’t understand why Yuichi didn’t just tell her that they were going on a date? Aren’t they good friends? …That’s right, they are just good friends.

But… the last time Yuichi sat with Kasumigaoka Utaha, why did Yuichi lie to her and say he didn’t know Kasumigaoka Utaha? It’s impossible that he has such a close relationship with the top talent in the school in less than a week, right?

Aren’t we good friends? There’s no need to hide it from me, right? I don’t care about this kind of thing at all…

Katsura Kotonoha looked up in confusion. There was no sunlight, only the shade of the trees. Why did I feel sad when I saw Yuu-chan with someone else? Horie-san and Yuu-chan had a good relationship…

Maybe it’s because I’m afraid that You-chan will ignore me because of her love relationship. Yes, that must be the case.

83. The Red String of Destiny

In the increasingly sultry weather, the seaside park is crowded on weekends. The golden beach is full of beautiful women in bikinis. The sea breeze blows on your face, and the faint salty smell fills your nose. In the distance, spots of light are jumping on the shimmering sea.

so many people……

Yuichi looked at the crowd that was as numerous as garbage and was discouraged. It was definitely a wrong choice to come to the beach on holiday. The good mood he had just tasted the cheesecake was completely ruined, just like the sand carried away by the waves, never to return.

“Here, help me take down my bag. I’m going to change into my swimsuit.”

Yuichi reluctantly took the ladies’ handbag from Kasumigaoka Utaha. He couldn’t believe that his sister, who was also a stay-at-home, would like such a lively and noisy atmosphere.

“Are we really going to go to the beach?”

“Of course, why else would you be here? Why are you looking so sad when you have a chance to see my sister’s swimsuit?”

The girl smiled knowingly, as if seeing an unhappy smile on Yuichi’s face was her greatest joy:

“Just wait for me to come back~”

Rouyi swayed gently and left with flying hair, and Youyi’s remaining luck disappeared without a trace.

The scorching sun in the afternoon was even more intense. The ground that had been burning all morning felt like a scorching iron plate, burning Yuichi’s feet. Unable to withstand the scorching sun, he unwillingly joined the crowd.

Fortunately, there are vendors on the beach, selling cold drinks and parasols.

Yuichi casually walked into a snack stand, ready to order a cold drink and then rub the stall’s parasol with a clear conscience.

The cool shadow gave Youyi a moment’s respite from his hot body. This seemed to be a fried noodle stall. It was past lunch time and there were few customers.

Youyi took a bottle of plum juice from the freezer and walked to the front desk to pay the bill, but he felt a warm gaze coming from the front.

“I’ll give you 100 yen, Hoshino-san.”

A cheerful and familiar voice with a hint of smile. Yuichi put down his phone and looked up. Under the golden medium-length hair, there was a bright and sunny smile. It turned out to be Hayato Hayama.

Youyi raised his eyebrows and nodded slightly as a greeting.

Although Hayato Hayama had long guessed that Yuichi’s attitude towards him was lukewarm, his gentle smile still froze when they actually met. His sunny and cheerful self was rejected by the almost solidified sense of alienation. How cold…

He maintained his smile somewhat awkwardly and handed over a 100 yen coin from Congyou.

“Hayato, are there any customers at this hour?”

A pleasant female voice filled with doubt came from afar. Miura Yumiko, who had just finished cleaning the kitchen, came to the front desk. The cool thin shirt was like hazy smoke spreading over the girl’s exquisite curves. The rosy red swimsuit was faintly visible, and the rosy red wine glass was filled with white wine. Every step she took was gently swaying, as if she would fall over in the next moment.

The girl’s beautiful green eyes were filled with displeasure. She had just finished cleaning up and said, “Who is so ignorant as to come over to eat in the afternoon?” She also wanted to go to the beach to play in the water~

“Yuichi?!”

My calm heart began to beat when I met those purple eyes. The corners of my mouth kept rising, and joy overflowed in those beautiful eyes.

The girl’s exclamation concealed a joy that was difficult to conceal, and this joy and the fact that she was called by her name also fell into Hayato Hayama’s ears. His smile, as always, was also somewhat meaningful.

“What a coincidence.”

Youyi finally spoke up, but that was all. It is better not to disturb others when they are working.

But Yumiko Miura didn’t think so. She leaned her hands on the counter, and her curly golden hair swayed happily.

“Hey~ Yuichi, why are you here?”

Obviously the girl would rather see it as a fateful encounter, perhaps there was an invisible red string tying them together, until she saw the women’s shoulder bag on Yuichi.

Yuichi did not notice that Miura Yumiko’s pretty face was becoming increasingly gloomy. It only took a moment for the sunny weather to turn cloudy, and it only took a few details to cast a layer of gloom on a bright mood.

Because Kasumigaoka Utaha didn’t want people in the school to know about their relationship as siblings, Yuichi was thinking about how to make up an excuse, but he was not very good at it.

He was about to speak, but Miura Yumiko spoke first:

“Yuichi, are you here alone?”

As he spoke, the girl walked out of the counter and came in front of him, moving closer to him. Her red and white skin became clearer under the haze.

“Um……”

Yuichi’s words were somewhat insincere, but they were well concealed by his calm tone. Of course, he completely forgot that he was carrying his sister’s bag.

The two of them chose a spot with a parasol on the beach outside the store and sat down. Miura Yumiko sat next to Yuichi. She began to take the initiative and didn’t mind even if Hayama Hayato was next to them.

“You’re here as a part-time worker, right? Is it really okay for you not to be in the store?”

Yuichi held the straw in his mouth, and the sour, sweet and astringent green plum juice slid into his mouth, dispelling some of the heat.

Miura Yumiko shook her head, holding her face with one hand, and her emerald eyes fell on Yuichi:

“What’s the matter? There aren’t many customers right now, Hayato can handle it alone, and you came here alone~”

Her lips paused, her expression a little strange, jealous?

“While I’m free now, I can take you around.”

Her beautiful eyes were filled with anticipation and a bit of resentment.

Was he discovered? Yuichi touched his face inconspicuously, but didn’t feel any sticky kiss marks. His purple eyes moved slightly downward, and the lady’s handbag lay quietly on his thigh.

I’d better pretend I didn’t see it…otherwise if I pick it up now it would seem a bit deliberate, and it would be hard to tell you directly that I forgot about Miura Yumiko.

“I won’t bother you anymore. I’ll be leaving soon.”

Youyi declined her kindness and suddenly felt the temperature under the parasol gradually rising, and the sand under his feet was a little hot.

“I see…”, Miura Yumiko sighed softly, her eyes moving among the crowd, and she casually asked: “Come to think of it, Yuichi hasn’t called me by my name until now, right?”

The girl’s resentment was gathering. At this moment, there seemed to be suddenly more couples passing by. They held hands intimately, smiling at each other tenderly, and a faint bitterness flooded in her heart.

Her pearl-like toes with cherry-red nail polish lay in the sand and slowly curled up. She was feeling a little depressed.

Not really…?

“Yumiko, are you okay?”

Yuichi called out in response. He always felt that their relationship was not that close. When the name came to his throat, he felt a sense of difficulty in saying it, even though he had already called it once.

“Hmph!” Miura Yumiko curled her lips and glared at Youyi angrily, then turned her head away: “You only screamed after I told you to. Where’s your promise to atone for your sins? You don’t have any sincerity at all.”

“Hey~ I was wondering why you didn’t reply to my messages. Turns out you were here to hook up with other girls, Youyi-chan.”

84. Enough

The soft voice was as delicate as silk, so charming that it made people tremble, but it seemed to turn into two white and tender arms that wrapped around Youyi’s neck, making him breathless. No…she had already wrapped around him.

Kasumigaoka Utaha took the bag from Yuichi and sat down on the other side of him. Several thin threads connected and intersected to attach two navy blue shells to the girl’s chest. The milky white exposed on the side showed her hugeness. Her wine-red eyes looked at the surprised girl opposite, and her white bare feet crossed leisurely, revealing her confidence.

Miura Yumiko’s original pretending to be angry was broken, her beautiful green eyes turned from puzzlement to sharpness, and her voice gradually changed from soft and coquettish to harsh:

“Kasumigaoka-senpai, long time no see.”

Miura Yumiko greeted with a fake smile. She still remembered her last compromise in front of the library, and she would not lose again this time!

“Miura-kun, I didn’t expect you to still remember me. You actually recognized me last time. I’m a little happy.”

The two of them exchanged meaningless pleasantries, and on the surface everything seemed calm. Yuichi picked up his phone and started browsing.

“Senior is the most talented girl in Hane High School. I think there should be no student who doesn’t know you, right?”

“Hey~~ You are also very pretty, otherwise my Yuichi wouldn’t have been seduced by you, right?”

Kasumigaoka Utaha rested her hands on the armrests of the chair, pouted her pretty face, lowered her eyes, and swung her feet lazily, or should I say her fox tail?

The undercurrent surges and gradually surfaces…

“Yuichi and I are very good friends, how can that be called seduction?”

The relationship between Miura Yumiko and Yuichi is not yet worthy of a big deal. She pursues a steady and cautious approach, and strikes back at the right time without making Yuichi hate her and without suffering any loss herself.

She has a deep understanding of the feeling of loss. The emptiness created by the disappearance of the part of her heart that should have been filled is suffocating and makes her feel helpless, so she cherishes and maintains this relationship more carefully.

“Then why were you angry because Yuichi didn’t call your name, Miura? If you are very good friends, it is normal to call each other by your names, right? Or did you force Yuichi to do that?”

Kasumigaoka Utaha’s attack was as dense as a barrage of bullets.

Uh, where did this woman start eavesdropping? !

Miura Yumiko’s smile froze for a moment before returning to normal, but it was no longer as calm as before and seemed a little forced:

“That’s because Yuichi and I have only been friends for a short time, and we are shy to call each other by our first names. So, what is the relationship between Kasumigaoka-senpai and Yuichi?”

The Queen turned the subject back, saying that it was not her style to passively accept things.

Tsk! Isn’t it natural for you to say this? How can you see any compulsion?!

Kasumigaoka Utaha cursed inwardly, her charming face remained calm without a single ripple, her crossed legs switched, and she said with an ambiguous look:

“Well, for some special reasons, Yuichi and I live under the same roof. I treat Yuichi as my most beloved brother…”

Speaking of this, a faint blush appeared under Kasumigaoka Utaha’s lazy eyes, and her eyes were evasive as if she was shy, as if she was savoring a taste that Miura Yumiko had never tasted.

Her slender fingers drew circles on the table shyly, as if writing down her unspeakable and shy feelings.

The red face and the blurred eyes made Miura Yumiko, who is also a girl, feel astringent. This unsatisfied fat woman!

What made her even more uncomfortable was that Kasumigaoka Utaha and Yuichi seemed to have a much closer relationship than her. Miura Yumiko looked dazed and her spirit was low.

“Come to think of it… I heard from others that a girl from the second year of high school brought a large group of people to settle accounts with the freshmen? This matter was discussed even in the third year of high school~ I remember that the girl who led it was Miura-san, right?”

Utaha Kasumigaoka’s words were as sharp as a knife, opening the scar that Miura Yumiko had not yet healed.

The blonde girl looked embarrassed, but because Yuichi was there, she couldn’t get angry, so she could only ask sullenly:

“I have already apologized to You, what do you mean by bringing this up, Kasumigaoka-senpai?”

“It’s nothing, I just want you to keep a proper distance from Youichi, otherwise it would be bad if my good little brother was led astray by you.”

Kasumigaoka Utaha was laughing so hard that her body was shaking. The thousand-year-old fox demon was using her charm to sprinkle poison powder, angering this hot-tempered school girl and revealing her hideous face. This was what Kasumigaoka Utaha was planning.

A ball of rage burned fiercely in Miura Yumiko’s heart. She wanted to stand up and scold this sarcastic woman, but when she looked at Yuichi again, her anger was suppressed tightly. After all, this was just drinking poison to quench thirst.

“enough!”

Yuichi could no longer pretend nothing happened and tapped his phone on the table.

thump—

Miura Yumiko’s anger paused, and Kasumigaoka Utaha’s confident smile froze.

85. Venting out anger

“I just feel that you’ve gone a little too far. There’s no point in arguing like this.”

Yuichi did not change anything because of Kasumigaoka Utaha’s coldness. The blandness of her narration made Kasumigaoka Utaha very annoyed. The chips she added to the scale must have been much more than Miura Yumiko, but now it seems that the scale is tilting towards the side with less chips.

In his heart, he complained bitterly about the injustice of Youyi, and the distress and bitterness spread in his heart, turning into anger.
