August 24th, Wednesday. Congratulations, today was a rainless day.

It had rained yesterday, and Yūki didn't have time to put away her blanket.

She thought for a long time about whether or not she should repeat the day, but she rushed back as soon as school ended. She ran so fast that she created a gust of wind, and her blanket was still wet.

There was no point in repeating the day, unless she could find an excuse to convince the teacher and the discipline committee to let her leave early.

Therefore, Xiji put the quilt out to dry early in the morning.

Because it hadn't rained last time, and the sun was shining in the afternoon, it was a perfect day.

Today's schedule was still uneventful, except for the fact that it was Valentine's Day.

Valentine's Day, a holiday that made people's hearts flutter just by hearing the name.

On this day, countless stores put layers of exquisite packaging on the cheap chocolates that they had prepared long ago. They added strings of blessings and legends that they didn't believe in, turning this holiday into a grand shopping event.

On this day, people were restless. Countless men and women prepared meticulously for this day, full of anticipation.

Naturally, this included Yūki's classmates.

On Monday, in the home economics class, the girls put in a lot of effort to make chocolates for the boys.

In order to make real chocolate that was edible, Yūki repeated the day several times before she and Kyoko were able to make it together.

She did know how to cook when she lived alone, but western desserts just weren't in her range of talents. She even failed to make a pudding several times.

The one who brought the chocolates was a girl in the class whose family owned a convenience store. Her family's freezer was big enough to store so much chocolate.

Everyone in the class was well aware of this, so during class, the girl enjoyed the baptism of the eyes of the entire class, trembling in fear the entire morning.

At noon, when it was time for lunch, it was also time for the chocolates to be delivered.

According to Yūki's observation, there were clearly a few boys in the class who didn't bring lunch at all. They were quite confident in their popularity and were prepared to eat chocolates to get through the afternoon.

Ha, naive.

The girls sat together and distributed the chocolates to the boys in the class according to the list. Those who wanted to give their own chocolates could go ahead and do it themselves.

By the way, Boss Skylark's face was really not bad. Even under such strong pressure, there were still girls who were unwilling to give up and wanted to send chocolates. They were all sent away by the whole class and left the classroom as if they were going to die.

Yūki looked at the list of girls. There were still a few people whose chocolates had not been given out.

"Kyoko." She waved her hand and stopped her.

Kyoko handed her a box of chocolates. "There are still some chocolates left for Sawada. Go and give them to him."

"Okay." Kyoko casually took the chocolate and walked towards Sawada.

Mm, Sawada, don't thank me. This is what I should do.

Yūki felt the red scarf on her chest become even redder … Oh, I'm not right. She was always misled by the China friend who liked to chat with her online.

After crossing out Sawada's name on the list, Yūki continued to flip through the list. As she flipped through, she felt that something was wrong.

Why was Prison Temple's name added?

She looked back at the girl who was in charge of the chocolates.

If I remember correctly, this girl is from the 'Don't Give Them Away' faction.

What's going on? She's in Cao's camp but her heart is elsewhere?

Or is it that she secretly gave away the chocolates, but it's actually her own life?

Yūki faintly smelled the bittersweet scent of adolescent girls. She silently chose not to say anything and ticked Prison Temple's name.

Yūki was indeed a mature person, but this did not prevent her from having a supportive attitude towards girls' love affairs.

Speaking of which, who was the purple-haired girl who appeared at school on consecutive Mondays?

Why did she replace their chocolates with dark cuisine?

Yūki's intuition told her that it might be related to Sawada. Or rather, all the strange things that happened at school recently were related to him.

By the way, Yūki left this Monday by trying to eat a part of the dark cuisine.

It was too scary!!!

She swore that she had never eaten such a destructive dish in her life. It fell down the esophagus and corroded the walls. When it reached the stomach, it immediately reacted with gastric acid and exploded, causing stomach cramps to kill her!!

That was not a dish at all!

That was a biological weapon!!!

Yūki, who was left with a strong psychological shadow, felt that it was better to avoid contact with Sawada for the next few months.

Yūki did not prepare chocolate for anyone this year. After returning home yesterday, she tried a few more times before she made a few more chocolates.

She did not intend to give them to the boys in her class. There were too few people she was familiar with. She thought about whether or not she should give them to Yamamoto, but Yamamoto received enough chocolates to give him a nosebleed, so she dismissed the idea.

Yamamoto was really a popular person. He did not have time to eat lunch and was called out by the girls from other classes.

Thinking about it, the people she wanted to give chocolate to were Grass Wall, Mr. Fujinuma from next door, two other gentlemen from the same apartment, and someone she was familiar with …

"That, Komori!"

Hmm?

Yūki counted with her fingers and turned her head in confusion.

Ah, it was the guy who pushed off his shift in the Ancient Village.

This tall boy with short hair was blushing. He gathered his courage and said loudly under the encouragement of the other boys, "I like you. Please go out with me and give me your chocolate!"

In an instant, the whole class fell silent.

In the next second, there was an uproar.

There were countless men and women confessing on Valentine's Day. Under the cherry blossom tree next to the school building, there was a discipline committee member who made everyone take turns to confess under the tree.

There weren't many who would directly confess in class. Confessing in public like this, without the confidence of being accepted, there weren't many who would dare to do so.

Otherwise, if they were rejected, not only would they lose face, but they might also become the laughing stock of the whole school.

So at this moment, almost the whole class thought that the person from Ancient Village confessed after Yūki expressed her feelings.

In other words, she would definitely say yes.

Yūki's brain worked even faster. She almost instantly understood this person's intention.

It did not matter if he was stupid enough to confess without thinking, or if he wanted to force Yūki to say yes in front of everyone because she was not someone who would embarrass others, it was all the same to Yūki.

Therefore, Yūki put on a bright smile. It was even brighter than her usual smile.

For example, his usual (V) expression had become (V) appearance.

Ancient Village was full of expectations. This smile gave him enough confidence.

"Who gave you the confidence?"

Hmm?

Yūki maintained her smile until her eyes could not be seen. "Do you think I would date someone who would skip his shift?

I would not fall for a bad boy. "

"How did you know …" Before Ancient Village could finish his words, his sharp eyes immediately pierced Sawada. It scared Sawada so much that he shrank back.

He never thought that he really did not know that the person on duty that day was Komori.

"You don't know?

I was the one on duty with you that day. "

As she spoke, Yūki opened her workbook and wrote down her surname and Ancient Village's surname on a blank page. "Komori and Ancient Village are in the same order. The class leader always writes a pseudonym. You didn't even notice this and skipped every shift. I really don't know what to say.

Or do you not even know how to recognize a pseudonym?

You're clearly a middle school student. "

She held up the piece of paper and smiled even more.

This reason for rejection was reasonable.

In the end, Ancient Village returned to his seat with a red face under the boos of the entire class.

Although she made him lose face, Yūki did not feel that she did anything wrong.

The other party was just an ordinary person in this small town. There was no need for her to be with him, right?

Moreover, didn't the books always say that young people's love starts with their looks and ends with their nature?

The other party was interested in her face, but she was not interested in the other party's face.

The classroom quickly returned to its original state and was bustling with noise.

Yamamoto, who was sitting in the back row, saw the scene and could not help but sigh, "Komori's words are really unreasonable when she rejects him."

"Yamamoto, have you ever seen Komori classmate reject someone?" Sawada treasured the box of righteous chocolates that Kyoko gave him and put it into his bag.

Yamamoto nodded, "I've seen it a few times. It's better to talk in public. It's especially scary when there are only two people."

He remembered the confession scene he heard last year on the rooftop. That was the real poisonous tongue. Today was already considered good.

The first thing she said was' I don't even know who you are and you want me to be your girlfriend. Is there something wrong with your brain?

Should I start to get to know you now?

Why should I spend my time studying to get to know you?

You don't even know what I like and you can confess just by looking at my face. Then why don't you confess to Skylark?

He's better looking than me.

Go ahead and confess. Maybe he'll let you walk out of school alive. 'She was still smiling. This was probably why no boys dared to get too close to Yūki despite her sunny and gentle personality.

"Eh, Komori classmate has a poisonous tongue?"

Sawada was a little surprised. His impression of her was that she was just a girl with a faint smile who did not interact much with boys.

His intuition told him that this girl had many sides and seemed to have many secrets. Plus, he was a coward, so he never dared to take the initiative to approach her.

Of course, the main reason was that he was a coward and did not dare to talk to girls.

Kyoko also started a conversation with Yūki.

She did not think that Yūki would agree to it at all. She only felt relieved when Yūki rejected him.

"Kōyūki, I can't believe you can reject him."

"Of course, I don't believe in love that comes out of school," Xiji said in a genteel manner as she held her textbook in her hand, looking like an old man.

"You're talking about those theories that you don't understand in books again. Seriously, are you really not going to date?"

Kyoko rested her head on her pillow and glanced at the boys in the class. She was puzzled. "I don't really understand what they're talking about. We're only in our first year. Isn't it too early to be thinking about these things?"

Yūki nodded and stroked Kyoko's hair. "This is probably puberty. Everyone is looking forward to the beautiful feelings in the storybooks.

The books always say that falling in love is like falling in love in a split second. But the possibility of that happening is too small. At least, I've never felt it before. "

She swore that she had a few years more than her peers that she had never felt anything for anyone.

After saying that, Yūki stroked Kyoko's soft hair again.

She liked to chat with girls because there was a pure girl like Kyoko. As long as she existed, she could heal people's hearts. Yūki could look forward to a new day every time she woke up.

"Mhmm … I don't understand." Kyoko finally gave up thinking about this problem.
