Zongman: Complete Guide to Characters

"Is your family...rich?"

Seeing that Yeyue didn't respond for a long time, Nana took a step closer to Yeyue.

Yumi asked this question as if it was just a casual question, but seeing Nana's posture, she also approached Yeyue.

"What happened?"

"I don't know~"

"Those are the two girls who often hang out with people outside of school, right?"

"It's a bit scary, let's avoid it..."

Listening to what people around her said, Yumi felt a little weak, although she didn't know what was going on. She tugged at Nana's sleeve, wanting her to talk in private.

Nana seemed to enjoy everyone's attention.

Yurika clenched her fists and her face turned redder and redder. She had never been watched by others before, and now she just wanted to find a gap to crawl into.

“Ahh——don’t do this, Yuminana!”

Yurika held her breath and stood in front of Yeyue.

Yeyue raised her eyebrows. She roughly knew the character of these two people.

"It's okay. When you make new friends, there will always be some friction."

Yeyue took a step forward, smiling nonchalantly, and embraced Yurika, "It's just a chat, right?"

She looked at Nana and Yumi with a smile.

"Ah! Yes, that's right."

"We were just chatting, what? People are so easily stressed out these days!"

"That is to say, let's go, Yurika and...Yueyue."

"My pocket money was enough before I went abroad, but now that I'm alone in the Land of Sakura, I'm a little stretched."

Yeyue followed the two of them with Yurika, answering their questions.

This is the truth.

Yeyue did not choose to respond directly to their questions.

She didn't want to prove anything.

Then the passion between the two of them dissipated visibly.

"To be honest, I have to rent an apartment by myself, so I don't have much spare money to go shopping in luxury stores."

This is half true.

"Come to think of it, Yue-chan's family is pretty rich, right?"

"Ahaha, it's not that rich, right? Anyone can achieve this level, right?"

Yeyue sneered.

Nana choked and uttered a few scattered "yes" and "hmm".

"If Yue-chan rents a house, where will she live? A luxury apartment?"

Yumi ignored Nana's emotions and asked her own questions.

"Not really. In China, my home is a luxury apartment. I'm tired of living there. Single-family homes are very novel."

"That--"

"Hey, Yue-chan, where did you rent a house?"

Compared to Yumi, Nana was obviously more hostile. She interrupted Yumi and continued to ask questions.

Yeyue gave a rough address.

"My home is also nearby. The rent there isn't that expensive, right?"

Facing Nana's inexplicable aggression, Yeyue remained calm and said, "It's indeed not expensive."

She joked, "I don't like busy commercial streets. It's better to be quiet."

"That's right!"

Nana showed an expression of sudden realization, then moved closer to him in an intimate manner.

"Let's not talk about it for now, let's go eat."

Yeyue said this, took a few steps forward calmly, and turned to hold Yurika, who was left aside and looked a little pitiful.

"Will Yue-chan use luxury goods? I also bought a big-brand bag a while ago."

Nana twisted her black curly hair, feeling somewhat proud.

"Oh - what brand?"

Yeyue asked casually.

"From xx's family."

"Is it the new spring limited edition that came out a while ago?"

Yeyue recalled that it seemed like I had seen it on my mobile phone yesterday.

In order to integrate quickly, I spent yesterday browsing social media while memorizing many popular idols, TV dramas, anime, brands, etc. in the Land of Sakura.

"Yeah! That's right! That color combination looks great, right?"

Nana seemed happy that the people around her were following her topic, and she took a few steps closer to Yeyue and Yurika.

"Ah, I've also seen the bag Nana is carrying, it's really pretty! It suits you very well!"

Yumi shouted, unwilling to be left out.

But Nana just glanced at her and then turned her gaze to Yeyue.

"What do you think Yue-chan?"

"It's really beautiful. The design of that bag is based on the lively theme of spring when everything comes back to life. The color is bright and goes well with clothes. Nana, you have the temperament of an intellectual beauty. Wearing that bag will make you more playful and youthful."

To be fair, Yeyue said this.

Although Nana and Yumi have unpleasant personalities, they are not bad looking and know how to dress themselves up.

Nana was obviously pleased with it, her fair face flushed, "Yeah, I think it suits me too."

"Then, what about me?"

"Yumi is more suitable..."

The night moon is easily picked up, like a treasure.

Yumei was particularly excited when she heard this. The words that came out of Yeyue's mouth were all ones she had never heard before.

Nana seemed to be looking out the window, but in fact she was also listening closely, expanding her knowledge reserves, waiting for a chance to speak out casually and show off.

"But I think Yumi is not suitable for buying luxury goods. They will get dirty soon anyway, right? It would be a waste to give it to you."

Nana suddenly sneered.

"Ah? Ah——"

Yumi's excitement instantly cooled down, and she lowered her head in frustration, "That's true, I'm a big spender, so I'm not suitable..."

"That's not the case. Yumi is lively and cute, and she is very suitable for carrying a small bag. What's more, the bag is a decoration. If it gets dirty, just wipe it. At worst, throw it away and replace it with another one."

"Ah? But I don't have any money?"

Yumi is straightforward and always speaks directly.

"Really? We Chinese have a saying about physiognomy. Judging from Yumi's appearance, she will be blessed later in life. She will definitely become what you want in the future."

"Really? Will I become a rich man in the future??!"

Yumei widened her eyes and pulled Yeyue's hand excitedly.

—I didn’t say that…

Yeyue complained in his heart, but looked at her with a smile on his face without saying a word.

The four of them came to the less crowded atrium. Several girls brought their own lunch boxes. Nana even made her own lunch box.

Yurika, who was sitting at the very edge, watched the three of them talking and laughing, from bags to cosmetics, from big brands to useful small brands.

The focus of the topic unconsciously shifted to Yeyue.

Although Yeyue would take Yurika's feelings into consideration from time to time, every time she tried to change the subject, she would be brought back by Nana and Yumi.

"..."

Yurika fidgeted and put down her half-eaten lunch box.

"I'm not full... go buy some bread."

Yurika said and ran away with her head down.

"Is there any bread at this hour?"

"Are you feeling unbalanced because Yue-chan is so popular?"

"That's terrible, how could there be such a person?"

Nana and Yumi sang in unison.

Yeyue looked at Yurika's back as she left, lowered his eyes, and ate the lunch box that Kana gave him.

"That guy is so unsophisticated. He can't even get a word in when we're talking."

"That's right, I was even more unsophisticated in the first grade. Thanks to us, I'm a little better now."

“But it’s still very rustic.”

“That’s right, hahahahaha—”

"Unfashionable? I think Yurika is pure and cute. It's not a sin to not like to dress up."

Yeyue smiled quietly most of the time, and only said a few words occasionally.

When Yurika came back, the empty courtyard was the only one left.

Yeyue was calm and greeted her with a smile.

"Nana and Yumi have already gone back to class. Let's hurry up, it's time to go to class."

"Okay. Thanks for waiting for me, Yue-chan."

Yeyue smiled casually, and the two walked back in silence.

Yurika looked depressed and not as lively as when she came.

"Tsuki-chan is amazing... You've established a good relationship with Nana and the others so quickly."

“Well, this kind of thing…”

Yeyue was a little tired, and reached out to tuck the hair behind her ears, "It depends on my mood."

"Hey?"

Yurika was stunned. What does this have to do with mood?

Yeyue blinked at her, and ripples appeared in her red eyes.

"For people like that, emotional intelligence and other things will of course depend on their mood~"
