Ugh, wasn't the Awakening System supposed to make me the main character?

“No, no.”

So please don't look at me like that, I really didn't, I haven't had much contact with Shirakawa Haruka lately QAQ...

I opened the door anyway, and Shirakawa Haruka was already waiting outside. When she saw me open the door, she came in.

"Guiye, I'm here to help."

Upon seeing Shirakawa Haruka, Xiao Yueran and Guiyue both frowned, while I hurriedly spoke.

"Well, you two can take a break. Shirakawa Haruka and I will cook together. They've already come over."

Xiao Yueran and Guiyue remained silent and offered no further response.

Does this mean tacit approval?

I don't know why, but looking at Xiaoyueran and Guiyue like this, I felt even more flustered...

However, since I had already called Shirakawa Haruka over, I couldn't just send her back because I didn't feel well. So I gestured for Shirakawa Haruka to come over.

"Come on, you assist me, I'll be the head chef."

I glanced at today's ingredients, and they were all common ingredients used in everyday dishes. I could make simple everyday dishes myself.

As for ingredients that you don't know how to use, I think watching some online tutorials shouldn't be a big problem.

"Well?"

Shirakawa Haruka noticed Xiaoyueran and Guiyue to the side and looked at them with concern. Then she turned her gaze to me.

"Guiye, are you... sure?"

I didn't think much about it and just nodded.

"Of course, just come over here and wash all these vegetables and remove the wilted parts."

After giving instructions to Shirakawa Haruka, I immediately began my own work.

As for Xiao Yueran and He Guiyue on the other side, I didn't pay much attention to them.

Neither of them needs to cook, so there shouldn't be any problems now, right?

I noticed that Xiaoyueran and Guiyue hadn't spoken for a long time, so I guessed that this was probably okay and didn't pay much attention to it. I continued chatting with Baichuan Yao afterwards.

……

"Shirakawa Haruka, bring me that bowl of water over there."

"Hehehe~ Please call me the world's number one invincible handsome guy, Shirakawa Haruka, thank you!"

"Tsk! If this keeps going on, the food will burn!"

"Eh? Oh no!! QAQ..."

"Fool……"

……

"Guiye, what's with those cat ears on your head and that little tail behind you? Especially the tail, is it an accessory or a plugin? I've been wanting to ask you that before, it's kind of cute~"

"Hmph! Don't ask me that!"

When Shirakawa Haruka asked me that, I blushed and couldn't help but recall the scene when Ning Xueyang turned me into a catgirl.

Is the tail an accessory or a plugin? The answer is neither, meow...

If Shirakawa Haruka found out, she'd probably be laughed at for quite a while, right?

……

After that, Shirakawa Haruka and I continued to chat about random things, topics that only she and I could talk about.

Xiao Yueran and Guiyue, on the other hand, were unusually quiet, not saying a word or making a fuss like before.

Dinner was ready quickly. Although I'm not as skilled as Guiyue, I did put my heart into it. It wasn't particularly delicious, but it looked alright.

After all, Shirakawa Haruka is right here; if he makes a mistake, he'll probably be laughed at.

"Alright, alright, that's about it. Xiao Yueran, Guiyue, dinner's ready, come and eat."

As I brought the last dish to the table, I called the two of them over, and Shirakawa Haruka set out the bowls and chopsticks at that moment.

Just then, there was a knock at the door. I rushed over and saw it was Xu Liya, so I opened the door for her.

Before I could say anything, Xu Liya handed me another bag of oranges.

"I went fruit picking today too, and I don't think I can finish all of these. It would be a waste to throw them away, so I'm giving them to you~"

Seeing Xu Liya's smiling face, I certainly wouldn't refuse this kind offer from the beautiful girl.

While returning the smile, he didn't forget to invite the other person.

"Oh, thank you so much! By the way, would you like to have dinner together? I've already prepared everything."

"Eh? Is that okay?"

Xu Liya seemed somewhat surprised by this, and then turned her gaze into the room. It's unclear whether she saw something, but her attitude suddenly changed.

"Haha, well, although I really want to have dinner with Xiao Guiye, I suddenly remembered that it's already prepared at home, so let's just skip it."

After saying that, Xu Liya turned and left.

Although it felt a little strange, I didn't think too much about it and just waved to Xu Yali as she left.

"Okay then, let's have dinner together again next time."

Although Xu Liya is suspected of having a thing for young girls, she's actually a pretty nice person.

After that, Xu Liya left, and we started eating.

Throughout the entire process, it was me and Shirakawa Haruka who were talking, while my younger sister Guiyue and Xiaoyueran remained silent, although they seemed to be exchanging glances at each other the whole time.

……

"Alright, that's enough for now. We can play games sometime later."

Dinner time ended quickly. After seeing Shirakawa Haruka off, I closed the door to my rented room and was about to lie down and rest after finishing my meal when a hand suddenly grabbed my body from behind.

"Sister, you two seem to be very close~ You didn't even talk to me the whole time..."

"Return...return to the moon?"

"That girl gave the teacher oranges, and the teacher accepted them so happily; they seem to have a pretty good relationship..."

"Eh? Xiao Yueran?"

I quickly turned to look at them, but they seemed to have reached some kind of consensus.

"Anyway, if we keep fighting, the teacher (older sister) will probably just be snatched away by someone else, so why don't we..."

“Ehhhhh?!!!”

"Anyway, if we keep fighting, the teacher (older sister) will probably just be snatched away by someone else, so why don't we..."

“Ehhhhh?!!!”

For some reason, a faint shadow fell over Guiyue and Xiaoyueran's faces, giving them a slightly oppressive look.

"It's better to... better to what..."

I hugged my small body, asking questions as I backed away.

Unfortunately, I soon bumped into the door, and I could only curl up my small body and watch the two of them warily.

Xiao Yueran and Guiyue didn't speak. They smiled at each other and then turned their deep gazes to me.

"Xiao Yueran? Guiyue? What happened to you two?"

"Speaking of which, you're quite pitiful. Yue Ran could clearly see that you really liked the teacher and treated her so well, but the teacher couldn't sense anything at all."

"Aren't you the same? You've liked her for a while now, but I'm afraid that even now, in her eyes you're still no different from the other students in your class, right?"

The conversation between Xiaoyueran and Guiyue became increasingly bizarre, and they slowly walked towards me.

At that moment, I suddenly remembered that Xiaoyueran and Guiyue had been exchanging glances while we were eating, but I was chatting with Baichuanyao at the time and didn't pay much attention to it.

Looking back now, I realize how strange the two of them were.

Wait a minute! Xiao Yueran said she could tell that Guiyue likes me, and Guiyue also said she could tell that Xiao Yueran likes me. This kind of liking is probably that kind of liking, and neither of them denied the other.

No wonder, when Shirakawa Haruka and I were being intimate just now, our behavior was so strange, and then we seemed to have reached some kind of consensus.

Could it be that...could it be said that...

I became increasingly afraid to think any further, and simply covered my head in fear.

"Although Yue Ran initially hoped that the teacher would belong only to her, realistically speaking, Yue Ran could never win against Ning Xueyang, Mochizuki Saki, or the other girls the teacher had been involved with..."

"How about we just split the older sister between us?"

"Hehe~" x2

Xiao Yueran and Guiyue looked at each other again, both giving each other a wicked smile. Their simple conversation seemed to be deciding my final fate.

Because the door was closed and the lights were off, the room was exceptionally dark, and my ominous premonition grew stronger.
