Bai Qiu sensed that something was wrong.
Wait a minute! Why is Su Shi all he can think about?
He glanced at Su Shi without leaving a trace, and saw that Su Shi's face was filled with the sweet smile of a young girl.
Bai Qiu felt that her heart was wavering.
No, he didn't have any feelings for Su Shi that went beyond friendship.
He had explicitly rejected Su Shi.
Right, it must have been influenced by Su Shi's words that day, "I won't give up!"
Su Shi wouldn't do anything to him, would she?
Even if he does something, he won't easily change his mind.
I just hope that if Su Shi finds out one day that he actually has feelings for both Xiangzi and Deng, she won't be angry or hate him!
However, he should also find an opportunity to understand the lamp's thoughts first.
Maybe the lamp doesn't actually like him?
That way, Bai Qiu wouldn't have to worry about all sorts of problems.
Alright, now it's Su Shi's time.
To think about it any further would be disrespectful to the natural world.
To stop herself from thinking any further, Bai Qiu looked at Su Shi beside her and asked:
"Whatever Aunt Nagasaki likes, I'll pick out some clothes for her too."
Nagasaki Motoyo paused for two seconds before realizing that Bai Qiu was talking to her. She winked at Bai Qiu somewhat shyly and said:
"Huh? Bai Qiu, what did you say?"
There was nothing she could do; she was simply enjoying the moment of sharing an umbrella with someone she liked.
Like a shoujo manga, like a date, like a couple.
The only regret was that she couldn't hold Bai Qiu's hand like a real couple.
Sure enough... should I take the initiative and grab Bai Qiu's arm directly?
Su Shi glanced at Bai Qiu's strong and powerful hands.
Bai Qiu was unaware of Su Shi's thoughts; if she had known, she might not have remained so calm.
He repeated the question he had just asked.
“I think…” Su Shi thought for a moment, then raised her voice and smiled, “As long as it’s a gift from Bai Qiu, it’s fine!”
After all, her mother was very satisfied with Bai Qiu.
Bai Qiu smiled helplessly and pondered what would be a suitable gift.
And so, the two arrived at Sunshine Mall in Ikebukuro.
Nagasaki Motoyo seemed to have planned this all along, bringing Bai Qiu to the clothing section.
Su Shi's idea was to pick out a formal suit for her mother's work, and Bai Qiu also took the opportunity to pick out a women's tie as a gift for Su Shi's mother.
Inspired by the shoes Hai Ling gave her, Bai Qiu originally planned to give Su Shi's mother a pair of high heels.
But for some reason, Su Shi rejected it.
They were saying everything was fine just now, so why is it not okay now?
Su Shi is still somewhat fickle.
"Sorry for the wait, let's go."
Nagasaki Sosei, who had finished paying her bill a little later, walked up to Bai Qiu and said with a smile, "Let's go explore some other places."
She certainly wouldn't go back so easily with such a good opportunity.
In any case, they should create more beautiful memories together with Bai Qiu.
He needed to at least make himself stand out in Bai Qiu's heart as much as Xiangzi and Deng.
"Okay." Bai Qiu nodded and suggested, "Let's have dinner nearby tonight."
Su Shi: "Mm."
Since it's a clothing section, there are naturally many beautiful and cute clothes around.
As Su Shi passed by a certain shop, her gaze was drawn to it.
Su Shi was seen carrying several pieces of clothing into the fitting room.
Bai Qiu was prepared for the girls to wait a while while trying on clothes, so he took out his phone to pass the time.
It didn't seem like long before Su Shi came out carrying two bags.
He tugged at Bai Qiu's hand, and, not knowing what she was thinking, blushed slightly and said:
"Can I take a picture of that?"
Bai Qiu looked in the direction Su Shi was pointing.
It's a common photo booth machine on the streets of Japan. It's easy to take photos and print them instantly, and you can choose from a variety of different cartoon backgrounds and patterns.
"Of course." Bai Qiu smiled.
It's just taking a picture, nothing serious.
Although Su Shi might have some ulterior motives.
But Bai Qiu was happy to help with just taking a photo; he wasn't so easily won over by Su Shi.
When it was time to take the photo booth pictures, Nagasaki Motoyo finally had a reason to hug Shiraaki's arm.
Bai Qiu also experienced a different feeling than she had with Ai Yin that time.
The machine was operated, and the two people's smiling faces were captured in time.
The photo booth pictures were printed out quickly.
Upon receiving the photos, Nagasaki Motoyo shared some with Shirai. Her gaze softened as she looked at the two figures in the photos, who resembled a couple. A faint smile appeared on Motoyo's face.
This is the first photo of just her and Bai Qiu together.
This can be considered as creating a wonderful memory, right?
She has decided that she will stick the photo on the back of her phone when she gets back.
Afterwards, following Su Shi's idea, the two strolled around the area, bought some items, and then went to a restaurant for dinner.
Chapter 218 Lamp: Ano-chan... are you jealous?
The next two days were also extremely fulfilling for Bai Qiu.
I worked with the band End and Mygo to complete the music video shooting for "Unconfirmed Riot".
Both bands have now officially entered the online voting stage, and the girls in the bands are working hard to garner votes for their respective teams.
To ensure fairness, Bai Qiu's approach was for the two teams to take turns casting one vote each day.
"Ring-ling——"
The bell rang for the end of the last class in the morning, and the teacher announced the end of get out of class on time.
Because lunchtime is coming up next.
Chihaya Aine eagerly turned around, her eyes crinkling slightly, and smiled sweetly at Bai Qiu, saying:
"Qiuqiu, I didn't bring a lunchbox today!"
"Let's go to the school cafeteria together and buy something."
After a hard day of filming the music video, Ai Yin is in high spirits today.
However, the more crucial reason for Ai Yin's beaming smile was that she had already prepared a return gift for Bai Qiu.
Next, all you need to do is find a good opportunity to be alone with her and give it to her, and then take the opportunity to subtly express your feelings!
Of course, Ai Yin had no intention of choosing such an unromantic place as the school cafeteria.
We should at least go to a romantic setting like a couples' restaurant, a movie theater, under fireworks, or a Ferris wheel!
Hehehe! The pink-haired girl, who was thinking about all this, smiled even more smugly.
Seeing Ai Yin so happy, Bai Qiu couldn't help but laugh along.
Today's love song seems a bit too sweet...
However, with Ai Yin, such a cheerful person, around, one's own mood is also affected and becomes more relaxed, and the atmosphere of the band gets better and better.
Aine played an indispensable role in mygo.
Just as Bai Qiu was about to reply to Ai Yin that it was okay.
"Xiao Qiu, Xiangzi is looking for you!"
Hirasawa Yui, who had walked to the back door, suddenly turned around and told Bai Qiu the news.
Bai Qiu subconsciously stopped speaking, tilted her head to look at the corridor, and saw Xiangzi standing upright outside.
Noticing Bai Qiu's gaze, Xiangzi followed with a warm smile.
"Okay, thank you, Wei."
Bai Qiu thanked Wei first, then said something to Ai Yin, and then got up and walked out of the classroom.
He wondered what Xiangzi wanted to see him about.
Aine's eyes narrowed. Toyokawa Shoko?!
She could also tell that Bai Qiu was about to agree to her request.
Takamatsu, who was taking out a lunchbox, was also taken aback when she saw Shoko.
At the same time, Deng noticed that Xiangzi was holding two bento boxes...
If it were Toyokawa Shoko, who had previously closed herself off and didn't interact with other classmates, she would never have chosen to approach Shiraaki in such a direct way.
Occasionally, classmates passing by would glance at her with curious eyes.
But it doesn't matter.
After all, she came for Bai Qiu.
Seeing Bai Qiu walk up to him, Xiangzi smiled and said, "Well, Bai Qiu, I have something to discuss with you. Are you free to have lunch together today?"
Xiangzi gently lifted the two lunch boxes he was holding in his arms.
Without much thought, Bai Qiu nodded in agreement.
He felt a little bad for Aine, but he still had many opportunities to eat with Aine and Akari.
It won't make a difference if we do it one more day.
Since Xiangzi needs to see him, let's have lunch together today.
Just then, Takamatsu Akari and Chihaya Aine also came out.
Takamatsu Akari smiled faintly, looking on expectantly:
"Xiao Xiang, want to have dinner together?"
"Let's do it another day, Deng." Xiangzi shook his head apologetically and said somewhat embarrassedly, "Well, I have something to discuss with Bai Qiu."
Bai Qiu looked at Ai Yin and explained, "Um, Ai Yin, I'm sorry about today."
Xiangzi also looked at Aiyin, his eyes filled with apology.
"It's okay."
Hearing that the two had something to deal with, although she felt somewhat helpless and curious, Sheng Aiyin waved her hand generously.
Bai Qiu and Feng Chuan Xiangzi turned and left.
Takamatsu Akari and Chihaya Aine exchanged a glance, as if they could both see a strange emotion in each other's eyes.
Bai Qiu and Xiangzi randomly found an empty bench on campus and sat down.
