Really? I'm fighting the Dark Emperor.

For Eric, who has someone he likes and is liked by almost all the girls in the school, Valentine's Day is nothing short of a combination of celebration and disaster.

The girls who like him use all sorts of tricks, and it's really difficult to avoid them all.

The most effective way to avoid it is, of course, to stay home completely.

But on one hand, there were student council affairs, and on the other hand, he wanted to spend time with Naya.

"It's okay."

In the attic, Miya Xing was full of confidence:

"I have a secret weapon for you this year, you'll definitely get through it smoothly!"

"Yes, without you, I really don't know how to spend Valentine's Day every year."

Perhaps because she had classes, Ukunana wasn't in the attic at the moment, and Eric was processing the student council documents on his hands much faster than usual.

—If Ukunana were there, he would always be unable to resist sneaking a peek.

Having never been in love or had any experience liking someone, Mi Yaxing naturally didn't know that although his good brother was saying thank you, half of his mind was on the documents and the other half on Ukunana.

Yes, there's absolutely no place for him.

He was thinking about something else at that moment and thought it was perfectly feasible.

"Hey Eric, so many girls like you every year, how about you give one to me this year?"

Eric put down his pen, wondering if he was just hallucinating from exhaustion: "Hmm?"

"Since you don't like any of them anyway, it wouldn't hurt to give one to me, right?"

After realizing it wasn't a hallucination, Eric couldn't help but chuckle. He shook his head and picked up his pen again.

What did you mean by shaking your head and laughing just now?

The laughter was strange, neither like agreement nor disagreement.

Without answering Mia Star's question, Eric focused on the task at hand until the other party kept pacing around him, insisting on getting a clear answer. Only then did he give a vague reply:

"Maybe someone will give you chocolates this year."

Ok?

"What do you mean? You agree?"

However, Eric did not answer him and made it clear that he would never say anything more.

But he still smiled in a strange way.

Even after entering the classroom, Miya Xing still couldn't figure out what was going on with Eric today.

In the classroom, Rui Bu Si and her classmates were carrying out a "grand" plan.

When Miya Xing walked into the classroom, all four of them welcomed him with great enthusiasm.

Even though Yaya's eyes weren't open and she looked like she could fall asleep at any moment, the way her hands were waving up and down in my arms showed a welcoming attitude.

The duckling, which was being petted and held in Rui Bu Si's arms, even quacked twice at him.

That duck used to never bother with anyone!

Miya Xing, who was about to walk over, stopped in her tracks and pointed uncertainly at herself.

The four people and the duck all nodded at him with certainty.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

The slow-moving Miya Star was grabbed by Kenny and then forcibly taken away against his will.

What's going on? Why are all the people I've met today so strange?

Almost instantly, Miya Star was surrounded by them.

"I heard you and Eric are very close, right?"

Rui Bu Si couldn't hide her excitement as she rubbed the duck in her arms twice, her eyes shining as she looked at Mi Ya Xing.

She wasn't the only one whose eyes seemed to be shining.

Except for Ya Ya, whose eyes were half-closed and whose expression was unclear, every single creature surrounding him seemed to be looking at some kind of gold.

Miya Xing felt a chill run down his spine.

"Actually, no..."

No one here would care about his weak and feeble denial. Lan Bao pressed down on his flailing hands, utterly sincere:

"Today is Valentine's Day. Ya Ya told me that you've always been the one to come up with ideas and help Eric get through it. Mya Star, you must know very well where President Eric is, right?"

In that instant, Miya Xing felt the hostility emanating from all the girls in the class.

The noisy class, which had been filled with the noise of Valentine's Day, suddenly fell silent. As if under some strange spell, everyone stopped what they were doing and, without hesitation, looked in this direction.

Mysterious Star: ...

Okay, he could already foresee the miserable situation of being ganged up on by a bunch of girls after Valentine's Day.

Help! How does Ya Ya know so much?!

As if hearing his thoughts, Ya Ya smiled shyly.

"When I first joined the student council, I had to hand in a bunch of documents to the president on Valentine's Day. I overheard a bit of your conversation outside the attic."

Now Miya Xing had a vague impression of it.

Non-cute knights are not allowed to enter the attic; this is a rule that everyone knows.

They didn't know who was targeting Ya Ya, forcing her to deliver the documents and take the processed documents back with her, so they had no choice but to let her wait on the stairs to the attic for a while.

At the time, he thought that since Ya Ya didn't like Eric anyway, it didn't matter if he talked about these things, so he, Eric, and Ukunana didn't hold back.

Knowing what the girls were planning, Ya Ya offered a lot of suggestions at that time.

"Actually, that was only the case that year. I haven't seen Eric at all today."

With witnesses providing solid evidence, anything he says now sounds like a sophistry.

Two people who are together almost every day, neither of them could possibly believe Mi Yaxing's obvious attempt to clear her name at a time like this.

Just then, the school bell rang, and the familiar sound of someone clearing their throat reached everyone's ears. Miya Xing breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had escaped a disaster.

After class, the girls who liked Eric would surround him, and no one would do anything to him.

For a short while after Valentine's Day, the girls will be immersed in the sadness of being rejected by Eric, and no one will remember him.

Yes, he is safe.

But when he realized that Rui Busi and the others were practically sitting around him, he took another deep breath.

On the bright side, he comforted himself, thinking that whatever he said in class was better than being overheard by the whole get out of class after class.

After sitting down, Rui Bu Si took out a small piece of paper and quickly wrote on it. Ginny, who was sitting in front of Rui Bu Si, straightened her back and tried to block the attention of the students behind her who were not paying attention to the class.

Looking at Ya Ya sitting in front of him, and then at the duck on Ya Ya's head, Mi Yaxing had a feeling that they had prepared to not let him off the hook in this class.
