Thinking about it, a strange picture appeared in Lin Xi's mind.
He blocked the Snow Below family's second young lady in the corner of the wall.
The second young lady bit her lip, looked at him pitifully, and resisted his approaching chest with her small hands.
"Don't do this... brother-in-law... you are my sister's fiancé, I am your sister-in-law!"
Lin Xi hugged her slender waist unceremoniously and hugged her tightly.
"No, you are my intimate little cotton jacket!"
Pfft.
The fantasy suddenly shattered.
I saw Mahiru Shiina poke his waist with a pen, and said angrily:
"What are you giggling at? You're drooling."
He quickly wiped the corner of his mouth, but didn't wipe anything.
Mahiru Shiina covered her small mouth and snickered.
"Look at you silly, you idiot~"
Lin Xi glared at her fiercely and made a few mouths.
"You wait for me tonight."
Mahiru Shiina's face suddenly turned red, she shrank her neck, a little shy.
But immediately she raised her eyes and glared at him valiantly.
"Waiting is waiting, I have helpers, I'm not afraid of you!"
Lin Xi suddenly laughed dumbly.
No matter how many helpers you have, it's all him who enjoys it, okay.
Of course.
He will definitely not only care about his own enjoyment.
Lin Xi and Mahiru Shiina interacted friendly.
The other boys in the class saw it in their eyes and felt it in their hearts.
What an enviable man.
We also want to be at the same table with the angel, and laugh and talk with the angel!
If envious eyes could kill, Lin Xi would probably have died countless times.
Compared to the beautiful atmosphere on Lin Xi's side.
After Hayama returned to the classroom, he had a gloomy face and was completely out of state.
When Sho Tobe tried to talk to him, he just gave a few smiles and dealt with it with a haha.
This made Yumiko Miura, who had been secretly observing, very concerned.
After thinking about it, she took out her mobile phone and sent a message to Lin Xi.
"Um, Lin Xi-kun, may I ask, what was Hayato-kun asking you about just now? Could it be a misunderstanding about us going out together yesterday?"
Yumiko Miura's little daughter mentality is very obvious.
Because she cares too much, she asks so eagerly.
Lin Xi felt worthless for her.
After thinking about it, he replied with his mobile phone: "Yumiko, you're thinking too much, Hayato Hayama-kun didn't mention us going out together yesterday at all, he was asking me about a woman's relationship with me."
Seeing this message.
Yumiko Miura's eyes widened.
Hayato Hayama asked Lin Xi about a girl's relationship with Lin Xi?
Could it be Mahiru Shiina!
Hayato Hayama, likes Mahiru Shiina?
Thinking of this, Yumiko Miura felt like she had been stabbed in the heart.
Suddenly, a message came through on my phone again.
"Yumiko, you didn't think Hayama Hayato-kun was asking about Mahiru, did you? You're definitely overthinking it again. He wasn't asking about anyone from our school."
Seeing this, Miura Yumiko breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but cast a reproachful glance in his direction.
Why didn't you say so sooner!
It had her heart pounding erratically.
She almost cried.
Ah, wait a minute!
Although she was happy that Hayama wasn't asking about Mahiru,
he was still asking about a girl!
Miura Yumiko's heart tightened, and she immediately asked:
"Lin Xi, who was Hayama Hayato-kun asking you about? Can you tell me her name?"
Lin Xi: "… … …"
He sent a silent response.
Miura Yumiko was instantly embarrassed.
She immediately sent a message to apologize, "I'm sorry, I was too abrupt, suddenly asking you this kind of question. That girl must be very close to you… …"
Lin Xi: "It's okay, I'm not angry. It's just that I don't know how to tell you."
"Yumiko, you and Hayama are so close… Hasn't he told you that he has a girl he likes? I mean, hasn't he told you what the name of the girl he likes is?"
Seeing this message, Miura Yumiko's mind went blank.
She wasn't stupid.
It's just that she always puts her heart into her friendships, so she tends to trust what her friends say.
But Lin Xi's words were like a sharp sword, piercing her innocent heart.
Hayato-kun has really never mentioned the name of the girl he likes.
He hasn't even said that he has a girl he likes at all.
It's just that.
All along, she had been interacting with Hayato-kun as a friend.
She thought that she and him had a pretty good relationship. Hayato-kun was so gentle and always patient and smiling when he faced her, so he must also have feelings for her.
Others even thought that she should be Hayato-kun's girlfriend and that they would definitely date in the future.
But Lin Xi's question shattered her long-held fantasies.
Suppressing the pain in her heart, she continued to consult Lin Xi.
Miura Yumiko: "Lin Xi, did Hayama Hayato-kun tell you the name of the girl he cares about?"
Lin Xi: "Yes, but for Hayama's privacy, I can't tell you. However, what I can say is… that person isn't Yumiko."
Seeing this, Miura Yumiko's eyes were already filled with tears.
She had thought about doubting Lin Xi's words, suspecting that he was deliberately trying to stir up trouble.
After all, he had confessed to her yesterday, saying that he admired her.
But Lin Xi was such an upright person, and even Mahiru liked him.
He had no reason to deceive her with a lie that could be exposed so quickly.
So, what Lin Xi said was true.
Hayama Hayato had called Lin Xi out without asking about her, Miura Yumiko, at all.
Instead, he asked about the relationship between Lin Xi and the girl he liked.
"Yui, come with me to the restroom."
"Eh, okay."
Yui Yuigahama was dragged to the restroom.
Then she watched Miura Yumiko burst into tears.
She quickly hugged her and comforted her.
"Don't cry, Yumiko, what's wrong? Tell us what the problem is, and we'll solve it together!"
"Yui… Waaah…"
Miura Yumiko sobbed uncontrollably, tears streaming down her face.
Then she handed her the chat log on her phone to look at.
Yui Yuigahama was stunned after reading it.
"So, Hayama Hayato-kun already has someone he likes, and this person is close to Lin Xi, and Hayama misunderstood? The person Hayama likes isn't you, Yumiko?"
"Waaah… Yui, I'm so sad."
Yui Yuigahama sighed and gently patted her back, soothing her emotions.
She never thought that the always strong-willed Yumiko would cry like this.
"Yumiko, don't worry, we should still ask and clarify. Maybe, maybe Lin Xi is lying?"
"Look, he confessed to you yesterday, so he must like you."
"But you like Hayama, and he saw that a long time ago, so he deliberately said that so he would have a chance to pursue you."
"Ugh, don't talk nonsense. He likes Mahiru, and he wouldn't tell such a lie to pursue me."
"But what if he really is lying?" Yui Yuigahama thought, trying to stabilize her emotions, she could only let Lin Xi take the blame for now.
Actually, she didn't think Lin Xi would lie either.
He was their savior, and that alone gave them a good impression of him. He wouldn't do something so foolish, like lying and deceiving people.
Miura Yumiko's mind was buzzing, and she somewhat believed it.
"If he really is lying, I… I won't agree to be with him!"
She said angrily, but her cheeks turned burning hot.
Why, even if she thought he was doing this, he didn't seem so annoying?
Was it because he had saved me?
Lin Xi was making arrangements with Mahiru for tonight's battle when Yui called him out.
She also called Mahiru and Hina out as well.
Fortunately, it was currently a long break between classes, so there was plenty of time.
Otherwise, if they were all late for their Japanese class, Teacher Hiratsuka would be furious.
Arriving at a quiet place.
The girls first exchanged information behind his back before turning around in tacit agreement to glare at him.
Mahiru naturally believed him, so her gaze was instead filled with coquettish anger.
Yui Yuigahama hugged Miura Yumiko and stared seriously at Lin Xi.
"Lin Xi, confess honestly. Are you trying to pursue Yumiko, so you deliberately lied and said that Hayama Hayato-kun has someone he likes?"
"That's right, confess honestly! Even if you like her, you can't use such divisive tactics! That's too awful!"
Ebina Hina supported her best friend, but a gossipy look flashed in her eyes.
She also believed Lin Xi.
She just wanted to hear his answer.
If he could really make Yumiko fall in love, that would be the best thing.
That Hayama kid is really immoral.
He doesn't like her but still strings Yumiko along, using her as a shield.
She had been unable to stand it for a long time.
"Confess honestly, Lin Xi. I'm on the girls' side too," Mahiru winked at him cutely.
After the girls finished speaking, Miura Yumiko blushed, wiped away her tears, and looked at him nervously.
Lin Xi sighed.
"Fortunately, I kept the evidence, or else I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to explain myself."
He took out his phone and opened the recording of his conversation with Hayama Hayato just now.
[Hayama, what would you like to ask me?
[It's nothing really, just something I'm curious about… um, what's your relationship with the woman who got out of the car parked at the school gate?
[… …
[I won't hide it from you, Yang Nai-jie is very important to me.
[You can just say you like her… I understand…
The conversation between the two was clearly heard.
Miura Yumiko screamed and ran away while wiping her tears.
"Yumiko!"
The others looked at each other.
"I'll go after her. After all, it's my fault."
Lin Xi sighed and quickly chased after her.
Yui Yuigahama hesitated.
Ebina Hina patted her on the shoulder and smiled, "Believe him. If he can really help Yumiko move on, that would be a good thing."
"You're right."
Yui sighed and pulled Mahiru.
"Let's go back to the classroom first."
Miura Yumiko was truly devastated this time.
Lin Xi finally found the blonde beauty squatting on the ground on the rooftop, hugging her knees, and sobbing with her head buried.
After thinking about it, he squatted down and took out a tissue from his pocket to hand it to her.
"Wipe away your tears, Yumiko."
The girl's delicate body trembled.
"Leave."
"Class is about to start. Yui and the others are very worried about you."
"I don't need you to care!"
"Don't be silly."
"Go away! Are you happy now? I know Hayato doesn't like me anymore. I'm so sad."
"Did you think you had a chance? I'm telling you, there's no possibility!"
"I don't want you to comfort me."
Lin Xi's mouth twitched.
"What kind of image do I have in your eyes?"
"The image of a nasty person! Why did you have to tell me this? Why did you have to let me know that Hayato-kun has always had someone he likes? And that person isn't me?"
Her years of longing had been shattered, and her heart was in chaos at this moment.
In her breakdown, she took him as a punching bag.
Actually, she knew she couldn't blame him, but she just couldn't help but want to throw a tantrum. Perhaps doing so could divert her attention and make her heart feel less uncomfortable.
As she was pondering, her body suddenly felt lighter.
"Ah, you... what are you doing?"
Suddenly being picked up, she frantically pounded his chest with her hands, her cheeks flushed red.
The girl glared at him, feigning ferocity, and struggled vigorously.
But Lin Xi grabbed her hands, preventing her from moving around.
He carried her to a nearby bench and sat down.
"Didn't you say you hated me? Then I figured since I'm already hated, even if I do something outrageous, it'll just result in me being hated even more."
"I'm throwing caution to the wind! I'm going to make a move on you!"
"Ah! You can't, that's not right!"
She shook her head subconsciously, her tears stopping, replaced by immense panic.
"Then is it right for you to take me as a punching bag because you're heartbroken?"
"I... Waaah, I'm sorry."
She started crying again.
"Stop crying, or I'll kiss you!"
"Ah, you... how can you be so bad?"
She looked at the man who threatened her with such words in disbelief.
"Congratulations, you've discovered my true colors."
"Then guess what Ye Shan's true colors are like?"
Lin Xi grinned, sizing up the no-longer-struggling girl in his arms with a smile that was not quite a smile.
Miura Yumiko fell silent.
That's right.
Why was she crying so sadly?
Besides being ashamed that she had always assumed that Hayama liked her, there was also the reason of shattered dreams.
Hayama Hayato actually spoke ill of a girl for the sake of the person he liked, wanting Lin Xi to take the initiative to leave that girl.
Such petty behavior was not at all the image of the good-natured Hayama in her impression.
"What a silly girl, why is it that everyone else can see something, but you've been foolishly oblivious all along?"
"Actually, I initially planned to directly admit that I deliberately spoke ill of Hayama because I wanted to pursue you."
"But then I thought about it and felt annoyed. Why should Hayama be able to comfortably use such an excellent Miura Yumiko as a shield?"
"I'm just such a bad person, even making Yumiko cry. Do you hate me even more now?"
Hearing this, Miura Yumiko's cheeks flushed red.
She struggled slightly and said in a soft voice, "Your hand, you're hurting me."
"Who told you to hit my chest?"
Lin Xi muttered, releasing her wrist from his large hand.
Miura Yumiko carefully left his embrace, wiped her tears, took a deep breath, and bowed deeply to him.
"I'm sorry, I was being unreasonable."
Lin Xi didn't answer, he just opened his arms and hugged her tightly.
"Ugh... why are you still hugging me?"
She exclaimed in surprise, her delicate body trembling slightly.
"I feel sorry for you."
"Anyway, you already hate me, you definitely won't pay attention to this bad person anymore in the future, so I might as well hug you enough now, just to get my money's worth."
Miura Yumiko's cheeks were burning hot, but she gently shook her head.
"I don't hate you."
"Really?"
He stared intently into her eyes.
"Really."
"Then I'll believe you for now, it's time to go back."
"Okay."
The two of them left the rooftop one after the other.
Miura Yumiko glanced at him from time to time, quickly averting her gaze.
Her heart was pounding.
She couldn't describe her feelings at this moment.
But it seemed like she didn't hate his overbearing embrace just now.
Lin Xi's actions were actually a kind of taking advantage of the situation.
At the moment when Yumiko was most sad and disillusioned with Hayama, he brazenly held her in his arms.
This made the girl see his concern for her.
So strong.
So brazen.
So unreasonable that she knew his concern for her.
Lin Xi's figure had already quietly entered her heart..
