I am a freeloader in the anime world

After careful consideration and preliminary discussions, Hayato Hayama has made up his mind to implement a plan called the "Encouragement Method".

Hayato Hayama believes that through active motivation and positive guidance, he can stimulate Watanabe Itsuki's potential and enhance his own self-confidence.

Hayato Hayama is a typical man of action. Once he makes a decision, he will act without hesitation.

Teacher Shizuka Hiratsuka, who was beside Hayato Hayama, neither supported nor directly opposed this. She always observed with a calm attitude.

When Hayato Hayama started to take action, teacher Shizuka Hiratsuka seemed to be influenced by him. She followed him as a teacher and went to the football club to find the captain.

Hayato Hayama and Shizuka Hiratsuka looked at each other with a determined look on their faces. They stood up without hesitation and hurriedly left the Service Club's office.

Although the two people's actions had different starting points, they formed a tacit cooperation at this moment.

Their movements were swift and decisive, as if something important needed to be dealt with urgently.

At the same time, Su Yang and Yukinoshita Yukino did not immediately follow their steps and leave.

Su Yang was still sitting at the table, brows slightly frowned, as if thinking about something.

Yukinoshita Yukino sat quietly in her seat, turned her head to look towards the window, and gazed into the distance, as if attracted by the scenery outside the window.

There was a subtle atmosphere between the two of them. It was not as tense as the service department just now, but rather a kind of inexplicable ambiguity. They were each immersed in their own thoughts, without much communication, but also had no intention of leaving.

In this way, the figures of Hayato Hayama and Shizuka Hiratsuka gradually disappeared, while Su Yang and Yukinoshita Yukino remained in the service club's office.

Su Yang turned his head and glanced at the sky outside the window. Since it was close to the summer solstice, the sun set a little later during the day.

As the sky gradually darkened, Su Yang stood up and walked to the window, his eyes following the afterglow of the setting sun. He took a deep breath, as if to encourage himself. Yukinoshita Yukino noticed his movements and slowly stood up. The two stood by the window, quietly watching the sunset slowly set, each of them with indescribable emotions surging in their hearts.

"Although the daylight hours have gotten longer, it's not late anymore. Why don't you give me the key and go back home first? I'll lock the door for you. You live alone, and it's not safe to walk so late."

As he spoke, he moved his feet gently, seemingly inadvertently, but cleverly took two steps closer to her.

The distance between the two people gradually shortened, until the backs of their hands gently touched, as if they could feel each other's warmth and heartbeat.

There was no sign of resistance in Yukinoshita Yukino's eyes. Instead, she gently held her hand in Su Yang's.

This action was full of trust and tacit understanding, as if at this moment, the distance between the two people was invisibly shortened.

After all, the ambiguous relationship between the two of them was just one step away from breaking through that thin layer of paper and going a step further. Besides, it was just holding hands. Hadn't they held hands many times in private?

Su Yang's suggestion echoed in the air, but Yukinoshita Yukino did not respond immediately. She just stood quietly with Su Yang in front of the window, looking at the sunset in the distance.

The afterglow of the setting sun filled the sky, as hot and dazzling as a raging fire, yet with a touch of tenderness. The brilliant colors reflected on the faces of the two people, covering them with a layer of golden glory.

Su Yang turned his head slightly and his eyes met with Yukinoshita Yukino.

Her deep eyes seemed to hide endless secrets, but they were as warm and peaceful as the sunset.

The two of them just stood there quietly, as if time had frozen at this moment, leaving only their dance with the sunset.

As the sun sets, the sky gradually darkens.

But the two people's hearts became closer in this brief silence, as if they could feel the emotional fluctuations in each other's hearts.

They stood side by side in front of the window until the last ray of sunset disappeared in the sky.

After a long while, Yukinoshita Yukino raised her head slightly, with a determined light flashing in her eyes, and finally spoke to break the silent atmosphere.

Yukinoshita Yukino's voice was clear and calm, like a stream flowing after the ice and snow melted. Although it was a little chilly, it also revealed a firm strength, but there was a hint of confusion in it.

"Yu-kun, what do you think of Hayato Hayama's approach?"

Yukinoshita Yukino asked softly, her voice was as calm as the frozen lake, but the subtle temptation contained in it was like a breeze passing by, causing ripples on the lake. Su Yang keenly felt this subtle change and saw through the fluctuations in her heart.

"Alas..." Su Yang sighed softly, his tone revealing a hint of helplessness and disgust. "In fact, I don't have a clear attitude of agreement or opposition to the proposal of Hayato Hayama and Shizuka Hiratsuka. But my intuition tells me that if I really follow their plan, I'm afraid I will encounter many difficult problems in the future."

"is it?"

"Well, they have to organize intense training matches while constantly giving praise and encouragement. This kind of environment makes me feel that Hayato Hayama and Shizuka Hiratsuka are like taking good care of a giant baby who needs special attention."

Su Yang shrugged helplessly, with a bitter smile on his face, as if he felt helpless about this unpredictable situation.

"However, on the other hand, maybe Watanabe Itsuki just likes this feeling of being cared for and valued? After all, everyone's preferences and needs are different, and who can be completely sure?"

"..."

After hearing Su Yang's words, Yukinoshita Yukino fell silent. After a moment, she continued to speak.

"To be honest, I really don't like this practice."

Yukinoshita Yukino's brows were slightly furrowed, and there was a firm dissatisfaction in her voice.

Hearing Yukinoshita Yukino's frank words, Su Yang couldn't help but turn his gaze to her.

Although Yukinoshita Yukino's eyes were fixed on the rough sea in the distance, her expression clearly showed that she was not appreciating the magnificent sea view.

There seemed to be a deep thought hidden in her eyes, as if she was immersed in her own inner world, isolated from everything around her.

Her figure seemed to sway slightly in the sea breeze, like a lily blooming on the seashore, beautiful and aloof.

"Yeah." Su Yang nodded slightly and responded to Yukinoshita Yukino.

Yukinoshita Yukino lowered her eyes gently, with a hint of sadness and helplessness in her voice, "I think this approach is too fake."

Although her words were simple, they were full of sincere emotions, making people feel that these were her true thoughts deep in her heart.
