Chapter 39 The Easily Fooled Ura
On the way back, Natsumi and Shiina Mahiru did not speak to each other. They walked into the teaching building together and passed by other classrooms.
Only then did Xia Sheng realize that he seemed to have attracted attention again.
The gazes in the classroom were so piercing, because beside him was the angel.
He was only thinking about coming back with Shiina Mahiru, but he overlooked her popularity at school.
It's no wonder people pay attention to the two of them walking together.
Natsuo looked at Shiina Mahiru's profile; she showed no change in expression, but he still stopped in his tracks.
Shiina Mahiru noticed his movement and stopped as well: "What's wrong?"
"You go first," Xia Sheng shook his head.
"Is there something you need?" Shiina Mahiru continued to ask.
"No, look around," Xia Sheng reminded him.
"The surroundings... I see." Shiina Mahiru glanced at the situation in the classroom next door and understood what Natsuo meant.
She looked at Xia Sheng with surprise, then nodded: "Then I'll be going now."
"it is good."
Natsumi and Shiina Mahiru passed the classroom in front of them before they started walking.
It's much better to be seen by only one class than by two.
Back in class, Natsumi wasn't questioned; the news of him and Shiina Mahiru walking together hadn't spread yet.
But it was bound to happen sooner or later; the campus circle isn't that big.
After the first class in the afternoon, Miura Yumiko played on her phone for a short while before looking up at Natsumi with uncertainty.
Her gaze was so obvious that Xia Sheng couldn't concentrate on his book anymore.
"Miura, what's wrong?"
"You know... Shiina-kun?" Miura Yumiko asked directly.
"Shiina-kun? Is that the angel-sama?" Yui Yuigahama leaned closer.
"Does our school have a second surname, Shii?" Yumiko Miura asked rhetorically.
"It seems...not." Yui Yuigahama tilted her head and thought for a moment, but didn't expect it.
"So, what happened to Natsuo and Shiina?"
"The forum says that Shiina came back with Natsuo, and there are even photos." Miura Yumiko handed her phone to Yui Yuigahama to look at.
"Really!"
"Wow~ Natsuo, you're so amazing? You've already gotten involved with two of our first-year beauties so quickly." Hina Ebina chimed in.
"What nonsense." Xia Sheng shook his head and chuckled.
"Hmph~ I remember you initially said you were only interested in studying, so how come you're already entangled with one of our school's famous beauties so soon after arriving?"
"There's nothing unclear about it. I'm just from the same club as them, and we just happened to come back together," Xia Sheng confessed.
"A club? Natsuo, you've joined a club?" Miura Yumiko looked at him in surprise.
"Yes, I'm sorry, Miura. I promised you I'd go check out the tennis club." Natsuo clasped his hands together in apology to Miura Yumiko.
"It's nothing... What club did you join?" Miura Yumiko shook her head and asked, pursing her lips.
She was indeed a little disappointed, but she couldn't get angry and blame Xia Sheng.
After all, the choice is his; it's his freedom to choose which club he wants to join, and she can't force him.
"The club I joined is called the Service Club."
"Service Club? What kind of strange club is that? I've never heard of it before." Miura Yumiko frowned in thought.
"I've never heard of it either." Yui Yuigahama shook her head.
"This sounds really interesting," said Hina Ebina, clearly intrigued.
"Hehe~ Of course you haven't heard of this club. It was just founded by Yukinoshita," Natsumi explained with a smile.
"So it was just created... Wait, who did you say created it?" Miura Yumiko was taken aback, then stared at Natsuo with a serious expression.
"Uh... Yukinoshita created it," Natsuo replied hesitantly.
Miura Yumiko's expression made him feel uneasy, and he wasn't wrong.
"You mean you gave up the tennis club to join the club founded by Yukinoshita?" Miura Yumiko's tone was a little cold.
"This...it's not about giving up, it's just that the situation forces us to." Xia Sheng felt inexplicably guilty.
After all, he did break the agreement.
"Forced by circumstances? Yukinoshita forced you to join?"
"That doesn't count, but I can't not join."
"You have to join... Did she catch you doing something wrong? How could she do this!" Miura Yumiko was very angry; she had clearly misunderstood.
"No, no, no, she didn't find anything wrong with me. I did it voluntarily; I even asked her to create this club."
"You let her create it? You two created it?" Miura Yumiko looked at him in disbelief, as if she had been betrayed.
"That's about right," Xia Sheng admitted, forcing himself to speak.
Why?
"It's more convenient, and we don't have to be watched when we talk business," Xia Sheng explained vaguely.
"You two really do have something going on!"
"This..." Natsuo looked to Yui Yuigahama for help, believing she could guess the reason.
Yui Yuigahama had indeed guessed something, and she began to comfort Yumiko Miura: "Yumiko, it's okay, Natsuo doesn't like playing tennis anyway."
"But he betrayed me!" Miura Yumiko pouted, looking aggrieved.
"Natsuo, isn't this considered cheating?" Hina Ebina chimed in, stirring things up.
"What cheating? Don't talk nonsense." Xia Sheng glared at her, annoyed.
"That's about it~"
"Don't make things worse! Miura, I was wrong to do this. How about I make it up to you? Anything I can do, I'll do!" Natsumi said sincerely.
"Who needs your compensation! You'd definitely be better off with that so-called beautiful girl, Yukinoshita, wouldn't you?"
"No way, Miura, you're pretty too! Aren't you a beautiful girl too?"
"What...what are you saying!" Miura Yumiko suddenly said coquettishly, her face gradually turning red.
"I'm just telling the truth," Xia Sheng replied frankly.
"You...you..." Miura Yumiko was momentarily speechless, unsure of what to do.
She simply turned her head away and ignored him.
Seriously, they say anything and everything, without any shame!
But am I as pretty as Yukinoshita?
Yumiko Miura was secretly delighted, her pretty face as beautiful as cherry blossoms.
"Oh, Natsuo, you're really something." Hina Ebina patted Natsuo's shoulder in praise.
Anyone could tell what Yumiko Miura was feeling just by looking at her.
"I'm really just telling the truth," Xia Sheng emphasized.
"Alright, stop talking!" Miura Yumiko interrupted, unable to bear it any longer.
"I forgive you, okay? There are so many people in the class... You really do say whatever you want."
"You've forgiven me?" Xia Sheng was overjoyed.
"I forgive you, really." Miura Yumiko rolled her eyes at him, but the corners of her mouth were still turned up, revealing her mood.
"That's great." Xia Sheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He had been worried that Miura Yumiko would be angry if she found out, and he didn't know how to handle it.
Fortunately, she's relatively easy to fool.
However, it wasn't just a bluff; he genuinely thought Miura Yumiko was a beautiful girl.
Indeed, sincerity is always the ultimate weapon.
"Don't get too excited yet," Miura Yumiko said, crossing her arms and glancing at him.
"Is the compensation you mentioned still valid?"
"Of course it counts. I'll do anything I can," Xia Sheng assured, patting his chest.
"That's easy, I won't make it difficult for you. Final exams are coming up soon, how about you help us review our lessons?"
