Why wasn't I the one who got the male lead's script?

"...Although... well, in that case... I might need to discuss this with my family first. Um, I'll probably have to prepare dinner early too..."

This tone is so familiar—ah, Hoshimi remembered. She's not good at rejecting requests, and she's usually like this.

I really exploded today!!

Aki Tomoya can't predict the future: Chapter 10: A heart-pounding overnight stay (?) (Part 1)

In the end, Aki didn't hold a study session as previously agreed upon (even if it was just for show), but instead spent the entire afternoon introducing the game to Kato and leading her in pushing the lane.

He dragged Kato to play the game with him, saying, "I'll teach you how to complete this game perfectly and get all the endings! You'll be so moved that you'll cry after the final ending! Of course, Haru will always be there!"

Well, even though it was about "playing the game together", Xingjian was just sitting in the distance, watching the two of them play the game as if he was watching a live broadcast of a game anchor.

Well, actually, if Aki was willing to teach Kato how to forge iron, he would probably enjoy watching it more.

Who doesn't like to see a good-tempered girl playing a difficult game, only to be beaten by monsters and become irritable and doubt her life?

However, he couldn't imagine such a scene. After all, it was really hard to imagine Kato, who had an explosive temper, getting angry.

Soon it was dinner time.

As the host, Aki suggested that three buckets of instant noodles be used to solve the problem, but later Miss Kato took the responsibility of cooking considering the nutrition of dinner.

It has to be said that although Kato's cooking skills cannot be compared with those of Michelin chefs, they are more than enough to stand out among his peers.

Because the Aki family didn't have much food, she could only make the simplest curry pork rice. Well, it was enough to fill her stomach.

Aki Tomoya lay at the kitchen door, watching Miss Kato's back as she worked in the kitchen with a look of fascination, his face full of the obsession of "My wife is such a model of a good wife and mother! My future is so happy." After watching for a while, he ran upstairs contentedly to continue playing games.

Hoshimi walked into the kitchen and started helping. After all, she often cooked at home, so it would be nice to be able to help Kato share some of the work.

He stood aside silently, indicating that he was willing to help. In the end, Kato said nothing, but just smiled and nodded in agreement.

"...If you don't want to stay, I'll take you back after dinner."

He said this calmly with his head down as he rolled up his sleeves to wash the ingredients. Kato looked up at him curiously.

"Hmm...but Amami-kun seemed really excited to share some game with me. I have a feeling he'd be mad if I turned him down..."

"It's okay. I'll take you straight back to the station later. He won't be mad at you."

He was also half responsible for causing the girl to stay overnight at the boy's house. He would feel guilty if he didn't do something to make up for it.

“…Don’t force yourself to do things you don’t want to do.”

At first, Kato thought that Hoshimi was just here to help in the cooking. Before he could even say, "Dinner might not be ready for another hour," he paused because the black-haired boy rolled up his sleeves and started washing the ingredients.

"………It's fine."

In the end, the short-haired girl just shook her head lightly and cut the carrots with a smile.

"As long as we're not staying alone...if we're hanging out with friends, I wouldn't really object."

"........."

"And if I ask Hoshimi-kun to take me back, Amami-kun might get angry at you."

"If he gets angry at me, I'll get angry back."

"Haha, you guys are so funny."

The two people busy in the kitchen did not communicate with each other verbally after that, but their movements of passing kitchen utensils and ingredients to each other were tacit and smooth, which made Kato estimate that he only spent half the time of usual to cook.

The dishes were served at around six o'clock in the evening. After putting the tender and juicy pork and curry-flavored potato cubes into his mouth, Aki praised Kato's cooking skills.

Of course, he also did not forget that after dinner, when Kato cleared the plates and started to wash the dishes, he quietly pulled Xingjian aside and whispered to her, asking her some nonsensical questions like "Qing, you didn't attack Xiaohui while you were cooking, did you?"

It can be seen that although Aki usually pretends to have ordinary classmates' feelings for Kato, in fact, her possessiveness towards Kato is so strong that it is a bit scary.

Xingjian, who was already in a bad mood, simply ignored his question and turned away. An Yi was a little embarrassed at first, but as time went by and after seeing Hui, he returned to his usual cheerful self.

In fact, this also includes what happened before - whenever Hoshimi spends some time alone with Kato, this guy will either question her face to face, "You didn't say anything ambiguous between you, did you? You didn't cross the line, did you?" He will ask until he gets to the bottom of it, or he will bombard her with text messages until his doubts are clarified.

Xingjian had no choice but to explain to himself again and again without getting tired of it - even though he had a good temper, to be honest he was a little annoyed by being questioned repeatedly like this, so he simply threw his phone aside and started playing PS4.

Finally, the sky gradually darkened, and the street lights outside the window lit up enough light to illuminate the road before darkness completely enveloped the earth.

The moment that Tomoya Aki has been looking forward to for a long time has finally arrived - spending the entire night in his bedroom with Kato Megumi playing a strategy game.

This was a very important plot in the future he foresaw. At least after spending one night together, Kato, who originally didn't understand the life of an otaku, began to gradually cater to his hobbies and gradually became familiar with him.

Well, so for Aki Tomoya, this is an extremely important night. If he wants to have such a virtuous wife by his side in the future, he must seize this hard-earned opportunity.

Although the actual situation is somewhat different from the predicted future, just like the food in fast food restaurants will be marked with the words "Please refer to the actual product" in their promotional pictures, as long as the goal of filling the stomach in the end is achieved - which is also to reach the desired future, then it doesn't matter.

"—So, Kato-chan, come on and get on with it!"

An Yi picked up the game controller and cast an excited look at the short-haired girl who had just washed the dishes, walked upstairs from the kitchen, and walked into the room while yawning.

He also didn't notice that Kato, who had been busy all the time, actually had a hint of fatigue on his face - in short, he held her shoulders and continued to sit in front of the game console to start playing the game.

"We only played a third of the game this afternoon, and many endings can only be unlocked after two or three rounds. So let's cheer up and keep going!"

"Eh... this is what the delayed war refers to, right?"

Kato really couldn't beat Aki. After all, whether in terms of strength or other aspects, she had no chance of winning against Aki.

In the end, she had no choice but to sit obediently in front of the game console. Because Hoshimi was sitting behind Kato and Aki, he couldn't see their expressions clearly.

The following is the conversation time between Ms. Kato and Tomoya Aki.

"Well, I've always had a question, Aki-kun. Why do the heroines in galgames only like the hero from beginning to end? Aren't there other boys around them?"

"Ah, well. It's a galgame. If they don't like the male lead, are they going to like the blond one? Hahaha. Besides, the male lead in each female lead's route belongs only to them, right?"

"Hmm...but in the common storyline, there are also many female characters who like the male protagonist. There are even some endings where two girls share a boyfriend...I think this is a bit wrong."

Kato, who was very confused about this phenomenon, sounded confused and cute.

"Hey~ Don't worry about such details. Although, you see, the male protagonist has no choice but to have a threesome, right? If he doesn't want it all, how can he make both girls happy?"

"Well, then wouldn't it be better to arrange for another boy to be chosen by one of the girls from the beginning? That way there would be one more happy person."

"—Huh? No, no, Kato-chan. Forget it. If this kind of shitty plot appears in a gal, I'll immediately send a whole razor blade to the screenwriter's home. No, the more I think about it, the more disgusting it becomes—the heroine who can be conquered is born specifically for the hero! How can she be conquered by another male character? This is a naked betrayal! I think other otaku feel the same way as me!!"

It’s not okay for a girl to like him as a supporting actor or a random guy.

My male protagonist wants a harem and a threesome, all of which are available, right?

I haven't even eaten yet. Seeing you guys so excited, I'll update first.

I don't know if you feel better after reading this.

Don't be too upset~ Xiaohui is not as simple as Eriri, so how could she not see through the tricks of Zhalun? (dog head)

That’s right!! I’ve already updated over 10,000 posts today!!!

Aki Tomoya can't predict the future: Chapter 10: A heart-pounding overnight stay (?) (Part 2)

——So, here comes the question, gentlemen.

When you are in the same room with a couple (let's call them a couple for now) and they are playing games together, what will you do when you are alone?

Originally, the answer given by the boy named Xing Jianqing, who would have immediately answered "I want to learn", was -

"Oh, what are you playing?"

He left the table and sat down next to Kato, smiling peacefully as if he was very interested in this gal.

"It looks like it's quite interesting." (Good reading)

"what……"

An Yi adjusted his glasses. Obviously, this situation was not part of his plan.

Kato curled his lips in confusion, then finally smiled at him and handed the controller to Hoshimi who was sitting next to him.

"If Hoshimi-kun wants to play, Amami-kun just taught me. I can tell you how to play."

"Yes, please. I rarely play this kind of game before. Kato, can you tell me what the story is about?"

Hoshimi and Kato were staring at the monitor intently, only Aki, who was left aside, kept winking at the black-haired boy sitting on the far right as if he was performing a one-man show.

"This is different from what we agreed on, big brother! This is my home turf!!"

However, Hoshimi-san seemed to be oblivious to the conversation that flashed across the screen. It was hard to say whether he did it on purpose, but he didn't meet Aki's gaze.

Xingjian is a very easy-going person who doesn't get angry easily. Even if he is annoyed a second ago, his mood will return to normal after a while and he will treat others calmly.

But today seems a little different.

No matter how crazy An Yi hinted, he ignored her - it was as if he treated her as air.

In the end, An Yi was unable to attract the attention of the two and was annoyed for a moment. He narrowed his eyes slightly, and the expression on his face was somewhat intriguing.

Time passed by minute by minute. Although the three people were doing different things, the atmosphere in the bedroom was unexpectedly harmonious.

——However, after midnight, the situation changed.

At around ten o'clock, Xingjian, who had been concentrating on playing the galgame, felt tired and could not resist Zhou Gong's invitation, so he lay down on the table and took a nap.

When he woke up, the only light left in the bedroom was the dazzling yet pale light from the game console screen, and the scene outside the window, which had been filled with noisy city sounds, had also become quiet.

He looked up at the clock on the wall - it was a little after twelve forty in the middle of the night.

Aki Tomoya, who was originally sitting in front of the game screen, seemed to be unable to hold on while he fell asleep. He slept on the edge of the bed in a bad posture, his glasses tilted to the bottom of his cheek, and he even made a slight snoring sound.

“…………Hmm.”

Xingjian scratched his head sleepily and straightened up from the table - his hands were numb from being pressed by his head, and it took him a long time to recover.

"what."

Slide a blanket from your shoulders.

"........."

Xingjian raised his eyebrows as if he understood something, and looked straight ahead.

Kato Megumi was still sitting in front of the screen in the same position as before Hoshimi fell asleep, watching the dialogues between the characters flashing across the screen slowly but without stopping.

"Good evening, Hoshimi-kun."

She quietly turned her head and greeted Xingjian, who was still half asleep, in a very low voice - and at some point, she had completely turned off the sound of the game.

It seems that he is afraid of disturbing the two people who have fallen asleep.

"Um...good evening."

Xingjian stretched lazily, then slowly stood up from the table and moved his legs which were sore from being pressed.

Fortunately, he woke up in time, otherwise his legs would have been crushed - it is also possible that he realized that his legs were about to be crushed, so his body subconsciously made his brain wake up.

Well, as expected, when I think about the billions of cells in my body living for me, no matter how disappointed I am, I can immediately be full of energy. (Laughs)

Hoshimi glanced at Aki Tomoya who was sleeping soundly on the edge of the bed, then looked at Kato who was still concentrating on conquering the character, and shook her head helplessly.

Now he regretted meddling in the affairs of these two people.

“…………Hmm.”

Suddenly, a white light flashed on the game screen, and then the exquisite character CG immediately replaced it. As the only light source in the dim bedroom, it naturally attracted Xingjian's attention.

It seems like Kato has reached another ending.

Hoshimi moved closer, finally sitting cross-legged next to Kato, his eyes fixed on the game screen.

After the cg, the game production credits began to slowly appear from bottom to top.

The short-haired girl finally seemed to be relieved of half a burden. She let out a long sigh and her thin shoulders relaxed.

"With this, the final ending is also revealed... woo."

Kato quietly put the game controller aside, then raised his hands and stretched gently - making a somewhat cute sound at the same time.

"...Kato, you haven't rested yet. Are you playing this game?"

Xingjian found this a little unbelievable - her endurance was simply too strong.
