Zongman: I accidentally picked up a JK

After trying hard to fool Professor Zheng and survive the last class, Mingyou prepared to go to the club activity room to find Zhenli.

Yang Nai had to leave early for something and was unable to attend the club activities. She had a lot of social engagements recently, and all the families were socializing in the second half of the year.

Now he was alone with Manari, and he didn't know if she would have a cute reaction like those female characters in anime.

"I'm coming in." Mingyou opened the door.

Mari sat at the table and looked up.

Perhaps thinking of his own gaffe yesterday, he turned his head away again.

Perhaps he thought that doing so would be a guilty conscience, so he turned around.

Perhaps because he felt really embarrassed, he turned his head away again.

Perhaps she felt that since Mingyou was not embarrassed, why should she be embarrassed, so she turned her head away.

Normally, Marie wouldn't be this flustered, even if it didn't show on her face.

In the end, Marisa forced her head to remain still and stared at Mingyou.

Marisa: Stare—

Mingyou was amused by Marie's appearance. She wasn't as obviously shy as in the anime, but she was just as cute.

"Which club activities are you going to today?"

"Man, you're so light-hearted-"

"It's in Bunkyo Ward, 10 kilometers away from here." There wasn't much difference in Mari's tone, but her forced calm eyes revealed her inner unrest.

"Let's go, now what is the spiritual plague?"

"We'll find out when we get there."

Mari stood up and walked around the table to Mingyou.

She is still "staring"

"Um, Mari, is there something on my face?"

"Man, your face bothers me—"

"I was drunk yesterday," Mari emphasized.

"from where?"

"I was drunk." Mari emphasized again.

"After pizza?"

"I was drunk!" Mari emphasized repeatedly.

Manari is so cute like this, Mingyou can't help but want to tease her more.

"A drunk young lady actually behaves like that. I've learned something new."

Mari raised her leg and stepped on Mingyou in shame and anger.

It didn't take much effort and it was quite comfortable.

As expected of Manri, she shows elegance every time she steps on people.

"thanks for treatment."

"Shut up!"

"Wasn't it that the young lady was so cute last night?"

"Shut up!"

"You are so cute, but you don't let others say..."

Manari stepped on Mingyou again.

Did you know that she didn’t sleep well last night?

The teddy bear "You" was ravaged by Marie, and she vented all her shame and anger on it.

Although I didn't confess, I might as well have! I actually took the initiative to throw myself into his arms and wanted to kiss him?

Is she still the legitimate daughter of the Kujo family?

And it’s after eating pizza. Do you want to give Mingyou a first kiss with the flavor of pizza?

No, no, she is real! Pizza flavor is also a bonus!

No, no, no, what kind of reward is that!

What’s more, Mingyou didn’t accept it?

How dare he! ! !

There was no follow-up to Manari's first "confession" in her life. She was already magnanimous enough to let Mingyou see her today. The upbringing of a young lady was outstanding.

But Mingyou actually dared to tease her! !

This is what Mingyou finds so adorable about Manri. She has a lot of contrasts. On the surface, she looks cool, but in her heart, she likes the domineering CEO, which causes her mind to overflow.

"But I really can't make up my mind, Mari."

Mingyou followed behind the inwardly angry Marie and sighed silently.

Anyone can do it, he really doesn't want to delay.

After Sayu disappeared, he would no longer love one person wholeheartedly. It doesn't matter who he is, but he can't let his irresponsible self and Marie...

Marisa suddenly stopped, interrupting Mingyou's thoughts.

This is the corner of the corridor and there is no one else.

Marisa turned around and looked at Mingyou seriously.

Mingyou smiled and waited for Marie to speak.

"Wine is just a medium, I think you understand."

"Ok, I know."

"I don't like endless entanglement, nor do I like long waits. Mingyou, I want you to give me an answer."

The light in Manari's eyes flickered, revealing her shy heart.

Her feelings no longer needed words to express. Zhenli, who sobered up so quickly last night, definitely would not have been drunk to the point of unconsciousness when she leaned into Mingyou's arms.

The effect of alcohol is to reduce people's control and amplify their desires.

A girl's blush speaks louder than any love words; a blush from drinking is also a blush.

If it were someone else, Mingyou might have just laughed it off, but it was precisely because he valued Manali that Mingyou had to give a clear answer at this moment.

"Mari, I was infected with the spiritual plague and I lost someone. Do you remember the name I mentioned?"

"Who?"

Sure enough, even if Mingyou mentioned Sayu's name and appearance, it would be forgotten because she was "indescribable."

"She used to be a good friend of yours. We played together in Kyoto."

Manari frowned, she couldn't remember such an experience no matter how hard she tried.

On Pontocho-dori, she and Mingyou were eating oden together.

In Maruyama Park, Mingyou pretended to be the one to make Kamisama Yuuki happy, and she was the only one.

There were other memories, only of Mingyou and her.

"Who is that [Xiaoyou]?"

[Off topic: Only when Sayu is completely erased and the incarnation of Yuyu is saved, it is the real existence]

"I don't remember this person."

Zhenli didn't think Mingyou was lying. She was also a spirit exorcist and knew the strangeness of the spirit plague. Humans had explored less than half of the spirit plague over the past thousands of years, and every advance in cognition was accompanied by bloody events.

Mingyou should be the victim of this spiritual plague.

The desperate and empty look in his eyes in the apartment could not be faked.

"You shouldn't remember. That spiritual plague is terrible." Mingyou laughed bitterly. Before long, their discussion about Sayu would be revised.

"So your answer is no?"

This is what Mari cares about most. If Mingyou nods, she will decisively cut off her feelings and become a perfect head of the Kujo family. Whether it is marrying a son-in-law or a family marriage, Mari can accept it. But she will still get along with Mingyou as a friend for the rest of her life and never take the next step.

The pride of being the heiress of the Kujo family did not allow her to be indecisive.

If it were Mari a year ago, she would not have been upset about this situation. This was the fate of the Kujo family.

But now, she was afraid that Mingyou would nod. Her love for the man in front of her made her palms sweat and her lips tremble.

Marie, who was bound by the Kujo family rules, had long been freed by Mingyou himself.

She was afraid that after Mingyou refused, she would do the opposite of what she felt in her heart - leave Tokyo, return to Kyoto, and never see Mingyou again.

Mingyou's next answer will determine her future choices and the direction of her and Mingyou's friendship. More than friendship but less than love, it will determine which side the scale will tilt towards.

The development of the matter and the importance of the situation were beyond Mingyou's expectations, but also within reason. Because she is Manari, not the love-brained lady in the anime.

"It's time to be more decisive"

Some people and emotions are buried, and we cannot dig them out and whip their corpses all the time. That would torture ourselves and the other person.

"If there is an excellent person who is the eldest lady's destiny, I will bless you."

The light disappeared from Manari's eyes.

Just before the light completely dimmed, Mingyou's next words rekindled it.

"But I can't think of anyone in the world who is better than me."

Mingyou smiled, just like when they first met a year ago.
