Oda Yoshiko stared at Hoshino Hitomi's back intently, her eyes hidden under her long eyelashes flashed with a hint of envy, and then she fell into thought.

Since Oda Yoshiko was four years old, her family has enrolled her in cram schools, art classes, dance classes, piano classes... Her daily schedule is packed, with no free time at all.

Her family never cared about her feelings. No matter how tired she was, they only cared about whether her grades had dropped and whether her behavior was inappropriate...

One day, she couldn't stand this depressing life anymore and expressed dissatisfaction with her busy schedule. Her parents then suggested that she relax and go out to meet some friends.

She was very happy for a long time when she heard that she could make friends. Her mother dressed her up and took her to a party.

There were many young ladies from noble families who were about her age at the banquet, and she went up to them enthusiastically to greet them.

However, she found that the girls of her age either ignored her or looked at her with mocking eyes, and no one came forward to talk to her.

She didn't understand this at all until her mother told her why those girls paid attention to her. She said it was because she was not good enough. If she was good enough, someone would naturally come up and talk to her.

Since that banquet, she never made friends with any noble ladies again.

She studied numbly day after day, attended cram schools, and learned etiquette...

But it was not until she saw Hoshino Hitomi that she realized that not all young ladies from wealthy families were well-mannered and well-educated.

She found that Hoshino Hitomi was different from other noble ladies in her arrogance and aloofness. Although Hoshino Hitomi came from an extraordinary family, she did not have the airs of a young lady. She was cheerful and sunny, as dazzling as the sun. These were all things that she could never hope for...

She treats people gently but with a hint of hypocrisy. She always feels that people interact with each other for a certain purpose, so she has never been willing to open her heart and make normal friends.

But after seeing Hoshino Hitomi again, her thoughts were shaken. Hoshino Hitomi's sincerity, friendliness and good interpersonal relationships were all beyond her reach.

She wondered if she could, could she no longer be bound by constraints and be her true self?

-

After a long school day, the day's study finally comes to an end when the school bell rings.

Because Akika Yuri and Oda Yoshiko each had things to do, they said goodbye to Hoshino Hitomi and left in a hurry as soon as school was over.

Akika Yuri is going to her mother's house for swimming practice, while Oda Yoshiko is going to piano lessons.

Hoshino Hitomi immediately packed her textbooks and homework, picked up her schoolbag, and just a few steps out of the classroom, she saw Hagiwara Kenji and Matsuda Jinpei.

The two of them stood in the corridor outside the classroom, and because of their outstanding looks, they immediately attracted the attention of many girls.

Occasionally, a few girls would come forward with blushing faces to ask for his contact information, but they would then be scared away by Matsuda Jinpei's face that looked as if he would keep strangers away.

The appearance of the two made Hoshino Hitomi's eyes flash with surprise, and then a smile spread across her lips. She asked with a smile: "Did Kenji and Jinpei come here specially to wait for me?"

When Hagiwara Kenji saw Hoshino Hitomi leaving the classroom, he greeted her enthusiastically, curling his lips and smiling. The corners of his peach blossom eyes were slightly upturned, and coupled with his handsome face, his smile was particularly bewitching.

Kenji Hagiwara walked to the side of Hitomi Hoshino and stopped, and Jinpei Matsuda also raised his foot and slowly walked to the two of them.

Hagiwara Kenji smiled and said jokingly, "Of course. We originally asked Hitomi to go home together after school. How can we let the lovely Hitomi wait for us? That would make Jinpei and I seem ungentlemanly."

Hearing this, Hoshino Hitomi suddenly chuckled helplessly and said jokingly, "It's really my honor. Besides, Kenji is so handsome and behaves like a gentleman. He should be very popular with girls, right?"

Hagiwara Kenji touched his nose and said with a guilty look: "Well, this..."

Matsuda Jinpei chuckled, then glanced at Hagiwara Kenji with a playful look, and said with a playful curl of his lips: "More than that, he is simply a magnet. Wherever he goes, he can attract the attention of many girls."

Hoshino Hitomi couldn't help but glance at Hagiwara Kenji, then nodded in agreement, "Yes. But I can understand it, after all, Kenji is indeed the type of guy that many girls like."

Seeing this, Hagiwara Kenji curiously asked, "What kind of person does Hitomi-chan like?"

Jinpei Matsuda also looked at Hitomi Hoshino, with a hint of nervousness and anticipation in his eyes.

Hoshino Hitomi thought for a moment before answering, "As for the type I like... I like people who are excellent both inside and out, and who love me loyally and won't betray me. As for whether they have money or not, it doesn't matter to me. After all, I can support the whole family by myself."

Jinpei Matsuda had a blank expression, but he silently took note of Hoshino Hitomi's words in his heart.

After listening to this, Hagiwara Kenji was slightly surprised and said, "I didn't expect that Hitomi-chan's requirements for the type of person she likes are quite simple. I thought that Hitomi-chan would have very high requirements for her partner, after all, Hitomi-chan is so outstanding."

Kenji Hagiwara was secretly delighted and thought: It seems that there is a hope for Kojinpei to pursue Hitomi-chan in the future. There is no need to say much about Kojinpei's appearance. He thinks Kojinpei is also very good on the inside. Although he is stubborn from time to time, he is still very kind at heart.

As for loyal love...just look at the direct look in Xiao Zhenping's eyes when he looks at Tongchan, you can tell at one glance that he likes Tongchan very much, so betrayal is even more impossible.

Hoshino Hitomi shook her head slightly and explained, "It's just easy to say. In fact, there are not many people who can do it. After all, people's hearts are hard to predict. And even if someone meets the conditions I mentioned, if the personality, world outlook and other aspects are not compatible, it's just empty talk. The most important thing is that I currently plan to never get married."

When Jinpei Matsuda heard the last words of Hoshino Hitomi, his heart sank. He involuntarily clenched his fists and bit his lips, trying to cover up his abnormal behavior.

When Hagiwara Kenji heard this, his heart sank, and his happy mood was suppressed by Hoshino Hitomi's words.

However, Hagiwara Kenji immediately cheered up and comforted himself: It's okay, there's plenty of time anyway, he will make Tongjiang like Xiao Zhenping sooner or later. As for not getting married, Tongjiang doesn't want to and can't force her. If Xiao Zhenping can't accept it, forget it, being friends is not bad...

Hagiwara Kenji then asked: "I can understand what Hitomi said before, but...why does Hitomi plan to never get married? Is there any reason?"

Hitomi Hoshino answered truthfully: "Because marriage is a kind of bondage to me, it interferes with many things in my life..." Hitomi Hoshino paused and frowned slightly, realizing that what she had just said was not something an elementary school student should say.

Hoshino Hitomi then regained her normal look and changed the subject: "Anyway, I just don't have any ideas about getting married, and it's too early to talk about these things now. Let's go home first~"

Seeing that Hoshino Hitomi was not going to mention the matter any more, Hagiwara Kenji didn't want to ask any more questions, so he just said, "That's true. Let's go, Hitomi-chan, Jinpei-chan."
