Zongman: I am on the set of Oregairu, playing the role of Bai Xue

Did I...lie?

Isshi Iroha walked out of the Service Club and walked alone through the corridor of the special building.

She recalled the hug just now, which was so warm and soft. The loneliness that was buried in her heart in the past was dispelled a lot after being accepted by the two senior students.

There was no falsehood in that lamentation and self-mockery.

But Isshiki knew that she was taking advantage of his emotions just to gain sympathy from the seniors.

To be honest, she had thought about the possibility of failure because she was not sure how Yukinoshita viewed her.

Pretending to be cute or pitiful is just a superficial disguise.

But this time I really meant it.

Then...it's not a lie...

"Ah - it's all my fault, Senior. I lost confidence in my disguise, so I changed my strategy."

Isshiki anticipated that if she failed, she would absolutely feel ashamed and embarrassed, and would not dare to set foot in the Servant Club for a long time.

Fortunately, this desperate move happened to impress Yukinoshita, and she got the opportunity to join the Service Club.

Isshiki analyzed the current situation of the Service Club.

Yukinoshita and Yuigahama are definitely interested in Kitano.

"But... the seniors don't seem to know the seniors very well. Well, this feeling shouldn't be wrong."

Isshiki recalled the process of talking about cookies, and there was obvious surprise and astonishment in the reactions of Yukinoshita and Yuigahama.

Combined with the information she knew, Beinuo's speech and behavior revealed an impeccable character.

Especially when she was leaving the service club, she accidentally glanced at Bei Nuo and found that Bei Nuo had deliberately stopped reading, sat upright, and looked at her with a look of satisfaction.

This brief eye contact made Isshiki's heart beat faster and she almost ran away... Well, at least she could stay calm before closing the door. Once she walked away, she couldn't help but shout in her heart: "Foul, this is too foul!"

After this analysis, Isshiki suddenly felt that the situation was very troublesome.

Even though she had a hunch that it would be difficult to conquer Beinuo, from today's conversation, she knew that Beinuo's complexity far exceeded her expectations, so she felt troubled, particularly troubled.

Without a doubt... he is definitely more difficult to deal with than Hayama-senpai! But... it makes sense... otherwise, Yukinoshita-senpai and Yui-senpai wouldn't care about him so much...

It was obvious that both his rivals and the targets were not easy to deal with, not to mention that they were stacked together. Isshiki was very sure that he had entered a difficult mode... or a hell mode?

No matter what, she at least still has time to challenge.

"We haven't exhausted the topic of love letters yet. Besides, that senior with talent has also provided a new topic." Isse pondered over today's gains and roughly determined the next direction.

She walked out of the building, letting the afterglow of the setting sun shine on her face, muttering silently in her heart:

What type does the senior like?

The girl's thoughts slowly merged into the crimson clouds in the sky.

?

the next day.

The break in Grade 2 Class F was much more lively than usual, with most students discussing the grouping for the "workplace visit".

The group list and visiting locations will be determined at the class meeting the day after tomorrow.

Kitano's mind was not on this, it didn't matter where they went, he had already handed the decision on the grouping to Totsuka Ayaka.

Moreover, if nothing unexpected happens, Ye Shan’s circle will encounter new conflicts.

The activity room of the service club was as usual.

After yesterday's adjustment, the seats of the three people have become the current order from left to right:

Yukinoshita, Yuigahama, Kitano.

If we include Isshiki Iroha, who is about to join the company, her seat will probably be the same as yesterday, facing Yuigahama and next to Yukinoshita.

At this time, Beinuo was standing in front of the window, looking out the open window, and the coastal scenery was clearly visible.

The location of the service club is really good, quiet and popular. Even if you do nothing, occasionally getting some fresh air can make you relax.

Just as Beinuo was supporting his face with one hand and enjoying the scenery, the sound of a door sliding came from behind him.

Isshiki walked into the Service Club carrying his school bag.

She first glanced at Kitano by the window, then turned to face Yukinoshita and Yuigahama, with a smile on her face, and greeted, "Seniors, good afternoon."

Yuigahama waved, "Hello, Iroha-chan."

Yukinoshita tilted her head and responded politely, "Hello, Isshiki-san."

At this time, Bei Nuo turned around and simply said, "Good afternoon."

"Senior, you are standing there alone. Are you worried about something?" Isshiki put his schoolbag near his seat yesterday and rummaged through the things in it.

"Yes, and no."

"What kind of answer is that?" Isise could tell that Beinuo didn't want to say more, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Soon, she took out a piece of paper from her schoolbag. It was a filled-in application form for joining the company.

Isshiki handed it to Yukinoshita beside him, who took the paper gently with a smile and then carefully checked the information on it.

Name, grade, and application intention.

The application form for joining the club is not complicated. As long as it is approved by the president and the advisor, joining the club is a very simple matter.

"Well, as the president of the Servant Club, I did receive your application." Yukinoshita nodded slightly. As a senior and the president, she subconsciously sounded more serious when she said this.

"Then Iroha-chan will be a member of our Servant Club!"

"Oh... I seem to remember that I still need the consultant's consent, right?" Isshiki looked around with some confusion, as if searching for the consultant on the scene.

Those who don’t know might think the counselor is playing hide-and-seek.

Yukinoshita put away the application and explained, "The advisor is Ms. Shizuka Hiratsuka. I have already asked her in advance because she is usually very busy."

"I see, so that means the teacher will only appear when he is free."

Kitano immediately responded, "When Hiratsuka-sensei shows up, maybe it will be our turn to be busy."

"Eh... In other words, the Service Club is actually the teacher's support department?" Isshiki said this and unconsciously twitched his shoulders, gradually becoming less motivated.

Yukinoshita saw her concerns and added, "Hiratsuka-sensei will only let us do some school work, and we won't hand over anything beyond our capabilities to the Servant Club."

"That's right, but most of the time it's still very free. Xiao Caiyu can chat here, eat snacks, and occasionally go out for a walk. It's okay—"

Yuigahama stopped talking before she could finish her words under Yukinoshita's stern gaze.

That glaring look was clearly warning Yuigahama "Don't teach the younger generation bad things."

Yuigahama shrank her neck and responded to Yukinoshita with a helpless look, as if to say, "What you said is obviously the truth."

Anyway, most of what needed to be said had already been said, and Isshiki would soon understand the daily routine of the Service Club.

Isshiki knew what the two meant and smiled, "So that's how it is. After all, the senior sometimes goes to the soccer club too."

“Actually, there’s also a tennis club,” Bei Nuo added.

"Oh, that's right." Isshiki remembered that Kitano had mentioned Totsuka Ayaka, and that he had only called her by her first name, suggesting that they had a friendly relationship.

"Hikigaya-san, you don't want to go out for a walk again, do you? You should have been conspicuous enough last time." There wasn't much emotion in Yukinoshita's tone, but there was a hint of dissatisfaction in her eyes.

"Well, let's forget about this today."

Bei Nuo did have this plan, but he had to wait for Ye Shan to visit today, so he had to give up for the time being.

"Yeah." Seeing that he chose to stay, Yukinoshita felt inexplicably proud.

Yuigahama smiled and said, "Ahaha, actually Yumiko also invited me, but I declined."

"Yuigahama-san, perhaps you should think more about your friend's invitation." Yukinoshita smiled at Yuigahama, and the curve of her lips seemed to carry other meanings.

"Xue..." Yuigahama felt the other party's opposite attitude. Even though the difference was not very obvious, it was easy for Yuigahama to understand. "Isn't Xiaoyu going to join us today? I don't want to miss it, so I choose to refuse."

"Yui-senpai...thank you." Isshiki's tone was filled with joy, as if he was moved by Yuigahama's choice.

"Hey, you're welcome. Oh, by the way, should we hold a welcome party? It's not easy to get a new member, so we should celebrate this kind of thing."

Isshiki's eyes lit up when he thought of Yuigahama's idea.

If he could follow Bei Nuo and his group outside instead of just sitting here and chatting, Isshiki could take the opportunity to find out more information.

Isshiki had already started selecting suitable locations, but Yukinoshita was still a little hesitant.

"Is that so... I remember when Yuigahama-san joined us, we didn't celebrate either."

Bei Nuo, who was reading quietly, also responded, "Yes, I didn't have that when I joined either."

"Alas, when you joined, let alone celebrating, it was already good enough to be able to live in peace." Yukinoshita recalled the scene at that time. The two sides were tit-for-tat and repelled each other...

Is he repulsive?

This question suddenly popped up in Yukinoshita's mind.

She thought about Bei Nuo's reaction at that time for a moment: "You can't change it... because I don't want to change... I'm sorry, I can't imagine losing."

It's more like arrogance than rejection.

When Yukinoshita thought of the other party's tone of voice, she felt a strong desire to win, but the current Bei Nuo... didn't seem to have the arrogance he had before.

Not only was he not arrogant, he even became gentle and calm. Thinking of this, Yukinoshita suddenly realized something -

Wait, wait a minute… so… he has changed?

Yukinoshita was stunned for a moment and subconsciously glanced at Beinuo's profile.

The other person's eyes were focused, his breathing was steady and powerful, and his naturally tightly closed lips did not show any arrogance, but exuded an extraordinary temperament.

He has indeed changed... but why has he changed... because of... me? Or something else...

"Xiaoxue...Xiaoxue? Are you listening?" Yuigahama called out several times, and finally leaned forward and blocked Yukinoshita's sight with her face. Only then did the president come back to his senses.

"Um, what's wrong?" Yukinoshita quickly looked away and lowered her head to look at the paperback in her hand.

But her attempt to cover up was not clever at all, and was already seen through by the two girls next to her.

Yuigahama and Isshiki narrowed their eyes, their hearts were filled with violent uproar.

Hmm——Xiaoxue is actually...fascinated by it!

Is this true...Senior Yukinoshita also has such a girlish side!

Bei Nuo glanced towards their position curiously.

The three of them were just talking about where to celebrate, but suddenly they fell silent.

"Xue, you definitely didn't listen to me." Yuigahama stared straight at Yukinoshita, and her cold tone also had some of Yukinoshita's feeling. "Next, all members of the Servant Club are going to the karaoke near the station. Xiaoxue, do you understand?"

"Ah, yes." Yukinoshita agreed unconsciously, but after a while, she asked again, "So, why are we celebrating?"

Yuigahama gave a glaring look that said, "I knew you didn't listen," and said calmly:

"This is not only for Iroha-chan, but for all of us. If I join the Servant Club ahead of time, there will definitely be a welcome party. Do you still have any questions?"

Yukinoshita nodded, "No...no more."
