There is no system for the anime, so I have to work hard on my own.

When she opened her eyes again, Kato Megumi didn't know if it was an illusion, but she felt that the boy's clear eyes had become a little softer and more sincere.

The faint aura that seemed out of tune with the world also dissipated a little. He no longer seemed so cold and lonely, but rather had a bit more sunshine and humanity.

"It seems that Mr. Ye has figured out some things."

The girl stood with her hands behind her back, looking down at the ground. Her already gentle face now had a hint of smile on it.

? ? ? ?

Is this really the expressionless girl?

A light breeze blew, and the girl couldn't help but raise her hand to hold down the hat on her head.

The cherry blossom tree beside her dropped its petals at the right time, and it started to rain cherry blossoms. The girl in the rain had her hair lifted up, revealing her lovely face, and her dress was fluttering in the wind.

At this moment, the girl in the cherry blossom rain is no longer ordinary.

On the contrary, she is as beautiful as a fairy in a painting or an elf in the lake, which can touch people's hearts inadvertently and create ripples on the lake of the heart.

The young man beside him couldn't help but be stunned, and his heart was beating uncontrollably.

However, he quickly suppressed the throbbing emotion and looked away.

The girl who noticed this scene raised the corners of her mouth inadvertently.

The young man, who had looked away, obviously didn't notice. He just nodded and continued what the girl had just said: "I did figure out some things!"

"What's the matter?" The girl tilted her head and asked at the right time.

"Well, what I thought, and what I always thought, was just what I thought. I never thought about what others thought."

Ye Yusheng couldn't help but pause before continuing, "As you said, I'm a seemingly enthusiastic person, but in reality, I'm cold and indifferent. I've never considered other people's feelings. I just hope they can give me a satisfactory answer, and I long for them to make a different choice!"

"But when they didn't make the choice I expected, I was disappointed."

As he spoke, he turned to look at the girl, a self-deprecating smile on his lips: "Tell me, am I arrogant like this?"

"To put it bluntly, who am I to them? What right do I have to expect them to change?"

I don’t know if it was because of Kato Megumi’s simple and plain temperament, but Ye Yusheng unconsciously spoke out his true feelings.

After saying this, he felt that the hidden feeling of depression in his heart was swept away.

Hearing the boy's words, Kato Megumi lowered her head and thought for a while before she raised her head and stared at the boy. She found that his eyes had unconsciously become a little softer. She said in a serious tone: "I don't think this is arrogance!"

As she spoke, the girl turned and looked at the cherry blossom tree beside her: "Isn't this how people interact with each other?"

"Expectations, disappointment, misunderstanding, self-blame, guilt, understanding, all kinds of emotions are intertwined."

“No expectations, no disappointments.”

"You will be disappointed because you have high expectations for your friends, which is also proof that you regard them as friends!"

"So, there's no need to feel guilty, blame yourself, or shut down your emotions."

"I believe that as long as we communicate well, we can always understand each other."

However, Ye Yusheng clearly disagreed, or rather, he only agreed with part of the girl's thoughts: "But sometimes, once a rift forms in a person's heart, no matter how hard you try to mend it, it's only a superficial reconciliation. Deep down, the wounds are already deep, and the cracks will only grow wider and wider until they become irreparable."

"In the end, they drifted further and further apart under the passage of time, no longer able to understand each other, and could only become the most familiar strangers."

“Even if I want to speak, I find that I can’t open my mouth at all. The most I can say is take care in my heart.”

"Can this really be mutually understood? Or is there any need for communication?"

The girl nodded, then shook her head. "But that's life. Where there's excitement, there's regret. Where there's joy, there's sadness. We fear the unpredictable ending and try to avoid it."

After a pause, the girl continued, "But we can't stop moving forward because we're afraid of possible separation."

"We only have now!"

Listening to the girl's words, Ye Yusheng couldn't help but think of what Teacher Lu said to his friend -

Life is like a train that stops in front of you.

The conductor asks you, "Young man, do you want to get on the train?"

You don't know where the train starts or ends, so you can only hesitantly ask the conductor: "Where is this train going? When will our next stop be? Are there any seats left?"

However, when you are afraid and hesitant, the train has already left and you can only wait for the next one.

But when the next train arrives, you face the same problem: you wait for a long time, and others have already arrived in Siberia, while you are still at the station.

So, no need to worry, no need to stop, no need to hesitate.

As for what happens on the train, don't worry about it. After all, the train is moving forward, and where it's going is not important; what matters is the scenery outside the window.

So, there is no need to worry. If you don’t like something, just change it. If you want help, just reach out.

Take a deep breath: "Thank you, I understand!"

? ? ? ? ?

The girl was full of questions.

you understood?

What did you understand???

However, she didn't care: "Although I don't know what you understand, classmate Ye, but seeing you like this, I am still happy for you."

Hey, are you an angel?!

Also, this doesn’t seem to fit my impression of Kato Megumi!!!

"Thank you, but you haven't answered me yet. Why are you here alone?"

"what?"

When the girl heard Ye Yusheng's question, a look of confusion appeared on her face.

"You, shouldn't be excluded?"

Seeing the girl's silly look, Ye Yusheng asked directly, otherwise, it seemed that the girl would not answer.

"Pfft."

A smile spread across the girl's lovely face. After a while, she spoke, "So, that's what classmate Ye thinks."

It still hasn't changed.

"Then why did Kato-san remain silent when I first asked?"

Ye Yusheng expressed his confusion at the right time.

She straightened her wind-blown hair and said, "I saw the cherry blossoms here are very beautiful, so I left the group and came to take a look."

This is a lie.

"However, I didn't expect that I would scare classmate Ye." As she spoke, the girl thought of Ye Yusheng's frightened look and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"I have a feeling that Kato-san is thinking about something rude." Ye Yusheng couldn't help but frown.

Hearing Ye Yusheng's complaints, the girl coughed lightly and said seriously: "Mr. Ye, you think too much."

"Well, I believe you."

No way!!!!

Everyone knows that Kato Megumi, although not pink-haired, is black when cut open.

After a while, Kato Megumi suddenly said: "But thank you for your concern."

Why does it seem like Kato is so happy? Is this an illusion?!

At the same time, Ye Yusheng did not feel the slightest joy in his heart because of the girl's gratitude.

Some people, on the contrary, feel embarrassed because they think too much and feel that the other person is being excluded.

This is a favor from a saint, there is no time for me to think too much about it.

But why would I think so much?

As he was confused and thinking, the image of Yukinoshita preaching appeared in his mind, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

Wouldn't I really be influenced by the other party?

That's why we expect her to make changes in the matter of Saki Kawasaki, instead of just watching quietly and being a bystander as before.

Perhaps, it was because I didn't get the answers I wanted in this incident that I fell into deeper loneliness despite the changes I had undergone after joining the club?

Then, Ye Yusheng couldn't help but look at Kato Megumi.

Well, similarly, it is precisely because I have fallen into a deeper level of loneliness and become a bystander again that this gentle girl in front of me feels that she is out of tune with the whole world.

But why do I always feel like I have overlooked something important?

Then, he shook his head, putting all these distracting thoughts behind him, smiled, and slowly asked, "Mr. Kato, do you want to add your contact information?"

"Hey, is this a new type of pick-up line?"

The girl had a playful smile on her face and teased as she took out her cell phone. Well, it was a common flip phone.

But, speaking of it, why do Japanese students like flip phones so much?

Looking at the smartphone in his hand, Ye Yusheng couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"What's wrong?"

The girl spoke in confusion.

Hearing the girl's voice, Ye Yusheng finally came back to his senses: "Ah, nothing."

"Mr. Ye is so perfunctory."

The girl couldn't help but complain and looked at him deeply, but she didn't mean to delve into it, which made Ye Yusheng breathe a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, a familiar voice came: "Hello, Xiaoye."

Without looking back, Ye Yusheng knew who it was.

Yuigahama Yui, who received no response, could not help but jog to Ye Yusheng's side.

"Huh, Xiaoye is really something. She doesn't even respond to me."

"Who is this?"

Kato Megumi suddenly spoke.

Yuigahama was startled when she heard the voice. Turning around, she found the lovely girl she had overlooked—

She has a bob haircut, and except for the red coat, the shirt, skirt and beret she wears are all white, giving people a light and bright feeling. She also has a canvas bag slung over her shoulder.

"Xiaoye, is this your girlfriend?"

"As expected of you, Tuanzi. Unfortunately, this is not you. This is Kato Megumi. She should be my friend, right?!"

"Hey, friends are just friends. Why do you look so unsure? Also, what the hell is Tuanzi?" Tuanzi looked quite cute when he was angry.

Ye Yusheng just glanced at her sideways.

Then, he began to introduce Dango to Kato Megumi: "Well, this is Yuigahama Yui, nicknamed Dango."

"Hey, hey, I already told you, I'm not some dumpling."

Tuanzi protested, but unfortunately, it was useless: "Okay, Tuanzi, I get it, Tuanzi."

A light laugh was heard, and the two people who were playing stopped.

"You two have a good relationship."

"It's just so-so."

Ye Yusheng answered.

Kato Megumi was about to say something when she was interrupted.

"Xiaoye, hurry up, or you'll be late."

"Hey, hey, I don't care if I'm late, don't pull me!!!"

"But it seems like Inspector Hiratsuka-sensei is here again today."

In an instant, Ye Yusheng broke out in a cold sweat: "Okay, I know."

Ye Yusheng couldn't help but pull his hand away as he spoke: "Also, Tuanzi, don't you know that men and women shouldn't touch each other?"

The girl's face instantly turned red: "Yes, I'm sorry!!!"

Then, ran away.

"What a cute girl."

Kato Megumi commented.

"Yeah, it's a pity that while she's very outgoing, she's also too lively." Ye Yusheng nodded and replied with a headache.

"Ah, and Kato, let's talk later. I have to go to school!"

Kato Hui waved her hand: "Let's talk next time."

She watched the boy's back as he walked away. Suddenly, a picture flashed through her mind: a boy holding a girl's hand.

A smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Turns out, it’s you!

No wonder I always feel like I've heard this name somewhere!

Suddenly, a playful wind blew by, blowing up the beret, and the bound hair also fluttered in the wind.
