Reborn in Tokyo after picking up Sayu who ran away from home

Chapter 638 Shiwa's Olive Branch
Back to the hotel again.

Shi Yu stood in the corridor outside the room, turned to look at the person beside him.

"...Okay, Yu-chan, thank you for sending me back, thank you for your hard work."

"Well...you're welcome, this is what I should do."

...It's this kind of saying like fulfilling an obligation again.

Shi Yu smiled a little lonely, and nodded slightly, "...Understood, then I will go back first, bye, Yo-chan."

"Wait a minute, Shiba-senpai."

"Anything else?"

She asked puzzledly, and then the boy's face that hesitated to speak came into her eyes.

"...No, it's actually not a big deal."

After a little hesitation, Kato Yusuke hesitantly stretched out a hand to put on her head, gently stroked her hair, with an unnatural green smile on his face.

"...Yu-chan?"

"...I just want to say, we've been outside for a long time, remember to take a hot bath later to prevent a cold...Xiaoshi."

"--Eh??"

Shi Yu was taken aback for a moment, "...what did you just... call me?"

As if not used to this kind of nickname, Yusuke Kato withdrew his hand and repeated it vaguely.

"...a little poem."

Weak and small electric currents ran all over his body, Shi Yu's body couldn't help trembling, and his face turned red all of a sudden.

She blinked repeatedly, stuttering and asking:
"Huh? That... um... this... Huh? Yo-chan... why did you suddenly..."

"Oh, it's really nothing, I just feel that I did not do well enough before, thank you senior sister for being tolerant of me... Let's call it that occasionally."

Kato Yusuke explained with some embarrassment.

"...Yu-chan~~"

Shiyu's eyes lit up, she gently turned her body to face him, and said eagerly:
"Well, what about that... I just thought about it again. I still don't want to go back to the room so early, and I want to stay with you longer, or we'll go to your side."

"Mr. Yoshida is here too."

"Then! Other places are also fine, let's go outside and stay—Ah Choo~~!"

In the middle of speaking, Shi Yu suddenly sneezed.

Kato Yusuke showed a dumbfounded expression, and couldn't help but say:

"Okay, okay, we're not going anywhere, senior sister, go take a shower, or you'll really catch a cold."

"Tch...the atmosphere is just right."

"Don't be silly, body comes first, I'll go back first, call me if you have any questions."

"……and many more."

Seeing him turn around to leave, Shi Yu hastily reached out and grabbed the hem of his clothes, "Are you leaving just like that?"

"Ok?"

"Where is the goodbye kiss~?"

Shi Yu said and pointed to his own lips, closed his eyes and raised his chin, waiting quietly.

Kato Yusuke hurriedly glanced at both sides of the corridor, then raised his hand to brush her hair away, and pressed a kiss on her smooth forehead.

"……Ok?"

Shi Yu opened his eyes, and said sullenly: "In terms of perfunctory, You-chan, you have achieved an astonishing full score..."

Kato Yusuke smiled, and touched her head again, feeling much more natural than before.

"I'm sorry, I'll supply it to you next time. See you later, Xiaoshi."

"... Well, be careful on the road."

Shi Yu didn't stop him this time, just watched him leave with a sneering smile, and then opened the door and entered the room contentedly.

"I'm back~"

"Hey, Xia, Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu!?"

"You're still so energetic, Sawamura."

"You, you, why are you back? Where's Yusuke—?"

"It should be said that this is also my room. Where will I go if I don't come back here? As for Yu-chan...why are you worrying about my boyfriend?"

"Huh—? There's no such thing, it's because you always have a bad personality and like to tease people, so I need to make sure... Did you do anything to Yusuke?"

Looking at Ying Lili who was sitting alone by the window making tea, Shiyu raised the corners of her lips slightly, went directly to sit opposite her, and then poured herself a cup of tea.

"Hey! That's my black tea, don't drink it."

"Oh? But my boyfriend paid for this hotel? I think I should have the right to enjoy it~"

"Huh? Take a closer look. It's impossible for an ordinary hotel to have such a good black tea. I brought it from home myself."

"That's it~ No wonder the taste is so fragrant, it's delicious."

"cheeky!"

"It's just a cup of tea. If you mind so much, I can give you money."

"You guy It's really rude, you touch other people's things without authorization, why do I have to live in the same room as you?"

"……Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Yu glanced at the opposite side and put down the teacup.

"In this way, we are each other, right?"

"Eh??"

"After all, didn't you do that to my boyfriend too? You rude cat."

"Ugh...!"

Ying Lili's expression froze instantly, covering her mouth with her hand, stuttering, not knowing how to react.

"By the way, why are you alone in the room? Could it be that you were squeezed out by that woman~?"

"... How could it be possible for Hui to do that kind of thing, she just went to take a bath first. Speaking of which, you and Yusuke...how did you end up?"

Facing Yinglili's question, Shiyu originally didn't want to say more, but changed his mind in the next second.

"I said, Sawamura." She asked abruptly, "You like Yu-chan, right?"

Take it slow——

"Ah, ah!? Are you an idiot!? I hate that kind of thing... Actually, I don't hate him... That's right! Why do I have to answer your question!"

Shiyu looked at Ying Lili who was trying to cover up with contempt, and said:

"...Can you look in the mirror before you say this? After all, he is also my boyfriend. Can you stop putting on that kind of textbook-like, arrogant and youthful face in front of me?"

"That, that kind of thing... It's not all because of your strange words—!"

"Wow, you are really troublesome."

"It's not your turn to say that! Do you know how disgusting that smirk was when I first walked in the door? It's unbearable."

"...That's because Yu-chan... Forget it, that's not what I want to talk about."

Shiyu shook his head, resisting the desire to show off in his heart, just looked at the other party like this, and said after a while: "Hey, Sawamura-san."

"What, why...?"

"Are you coming to my side?"

"What?" Ying Lili couldn't help being taken aback, "To your side...what do you mean?"

"What I mean is—don't you like Yu-chan? Otherwise, come and join forces with me, and then I will agree with you and Yu-chan."

"--Eh?"

Shiyu's "agreement" caused Yinglili's brain to freeze suddenly, and her eyes were temporarily out of focus, but she quickly reacted and drank loudly in embarrassment.

"Are you kidding, kidding, kidding! Do you like to tease me so much? It's fine in normal times, why do you have to make fun of this kind of thing!?"

Faced with Ying Lili's outburst, Shi Yu didn't even blink her eyes, and calmly added another cup of tea to herself.

"Ah, I didn't mean to be joking, huh? As I said just now, as long as you accept my invitation, I promise I won't stop you from approaching Yu-chan again."

"……What did you say?"

"If you are worried about me, I can ask Xiao Jia Nai to testify for us, then I can't go back on my word."

"Hey, Hasumi-sensei...?"

"If you think it's not enough... Although I don't like the other person very much, it's okay to call Shinjo-san together."

"Hey, classmate Xintiao? Why?"

Ying Lili asked subconsciously, with countless question marks popping up in her head.Shi Yu took a deep look at her and nodded knowingly.

"That's right, you still don't know about them..."

"they……?"

"Oh, sometimes I really envy your innocence and carefreeness. If I can live like you, maybe I won't have to suffer so much..."

"Xia Hill...Shiyu...?"

"In short, I will skip the process and talk about the result directly."

Shi Yu took a sip of black tea and said slowly:

"...Maybe you always thought that Yu-chan's date was only me, but that's actually a very wrong idea. Although I'm Yu-chan's main palace, it's true, but he has other women."

"what!?"

Ying Lili couldn't help jumping up from her seat, and the chair made a dull dragging sound.Shi Yu turned a deaf ear to this.

"Then, Xiaojia is Yu-chan's concubine, Xinjo-san is a concubine, and that Benizaka Akane is probably a lover."

"—You mean Benizaka Akane!?"

"The above are the ones I can confirm at present, and the others are you and Kato-san."

"——Even Meguya!?"

In the middle of Shi Yu's words, Ying Lili interrupted her involuntarily.

"Liar! How is this possible? How could Hui...be real or fake? She never said anything about it, it's ridiculous!"

Seeing Yinglili's shocked expression, Shiyu showed a wry smile on his face, and unconsciously clenched the handle of the teacup.

"...Although it is true that I am a bad-tempered woman who likes to make fun of others...but if possible, I wish this hadn't happened more than anyone else, but this is the reality."

"—Woo!"

Ying Lili's body trembled, and she stood there dumbfounded, her thoughts stopped by this cold and ruthless fact, and her mind went blank.

"…………how come?"

She mumbled and fell on the chair, her small face full of disbelief, "Hui her... that Hui... I don't understand what you are talking about at all."

"--idiot."

Seeing that she still doesn't want to believe it until now, Shi Yu's eyebrows were tinged with irritability, and he said with a gloomy face:
"Let's not say that I don't need to lie to you. You have been with Yu-chan for so long. Could it be that you haven't noticed any signs?"

"Because, Hui, Hui is different from the two of us. She is an ordinary and cute girl with no flaws... She is willing to listen to other people's troubles patiently, and will gently reach out to those who are in trouble. Help..."

"so what?"

"So, so Huishe... how could she choose an otaku like us, she should like a more ordinary boy..."

Shi Yu sneered, and just stared at her without saying a word, while Ying Lili was also stung by the mocking eyes, and gradually lost her voice.

After a brief silence, the former spoke up.

"... Seriously, Sawamura, you should realize the reality earlier. How long do you want to continue this kind of self-deception?"

The latter let out a "woo--", lowered his head, and grabbed the hem of his clothes.

"Why...you can say such a thing..."

"Because... some people are not satisfied even though they have everything, and I can't beat her..."

Shi Yu muttered like this, with a bitter and unwilling expression on his face, his eyes seemed to be looking into the distance through the wall, his beautiful pupils were a little dim.

"Frankly speaking, I'm not at all interested in how you feel, Sawamura. Even if you quit because of this, it doesn't matter, but if you want to stay... I need to know your position."

"My...position..."

"Me and Kano, or Kato-san, which side do you choose, Sawamura? This is something I have to confirm."

As Shi Yu spoke, his eyes returned to their usual strength.

"Out of good intentions, let me remind you first, that "ordinary girl" who you regard as your best friend may be a more troublesome existence than you and me. "

"I can accept you, but it doesn't mean she can accept you too. If you don't plan to give up Yu-chan after knowing everything, my side is your only way out, and you have no second choice."

"And as the price for agreeing to join me, you must deal with Kato-san with me in the future. Are you willing to accept this covenant?"

"Covenant..."

Ying Lili murmured, shaking her head from side to side desperately.

"I don't know! You suddenly said such a lot of nonsense, my brain is completely confused, how can I accept it...!"

Facing Yinglili's timidity as usual, Shiyu nodded slowly.

"I understand, then you can continue to hesitate, my promise is valid at any time, you can come to me whenever you think about it... But——"

She changed the subject and her tone became extremely serious.

"Don't blame me for not reminding you, every minute and every second of your hesitation will make Yu-chan's heart move closer to Kato-san. In the end, you can only become a defeated dog."

Ying Lili was startled, and subconsciously opened her mouth to say something, but she couldn't say anything.

Shi Yu didn't say anything about it, but just gave her a look of "let me do what I want to do for myself", and stood up while leaning on the armrest of the seat.

"Okay, let's talk about the matter here. Yu-chan told me to take a bath when I came back, so I will go first. Thank you for the black tea, Sawamura-san."

As she said so, she walked to the corner and changed into a bathrobe, and then walked outside Shi Shiran.

Click, snap——

The door opened and closed.

Ying Lili lay weakly on her back on the seat, covering her face with her hands, and after a long time, she let out a plaintive complaint.

"What the hell is going on...!"

The sound echoed hollowly in the room.
