Is it a problem to have a harem in a stranger heroine?

"Is it because your physical strength is too low? Why do I feel like you guys are being taken away by Xiao Mi?"

"Don't make sarcastic remarks, Senior."

"My hands are dirty, and neither is Kato-san. If you want water, get it yourself."

Seeing that Eriri Sawamura didn't even have the strength to lift the remote control to turn on the TV, Shiyu had no choice but to take over the task.

"Forget it, I'll do it myself."

She opened the refrigerator, took out a can of iced oolong tea, then walked over to Bai Ye, looked at the food being stir-fried in the pot, and sniffed it.

"Xiao Jun, it smells so good~~"

Thanks to [The Story of Zhongyong] for the 8 spicy strips, and thanks to [The Free Stand] for the salted fish thorns.

I said yesterday that I would adjust my sleep schedule, so why did I stay up late again today? . .

Chapter 151: Michiru Hyodo, who always finds the "wow" point

coming!

Bai Ye secretly cried out that something was wrong. He could have imagined that Shiyu would come to "catch the adulterer", but he didn't expect Shiyu to act so quickly. It took only 3 minutes for her to come back.

Shiyu was almost touching Bai Ye's face, her warm and seductive breath blowing on his face. The distance was obviously not as close as that of ordinary friends.

Bai Ye felt itchy and scratched his head when Shiyu brushed her black hair. He didn't know whether the "fragrance" she was talking about was from the cooking or the faint but lingering girlish fragrance of Kato Megumi.

After thinking it over, he decided to play dumb for a while.

After all, it's normal to pick up some smell when cooking with Kato Megumi, right?

Shiyu's face was so close to him that Bai Ye didn't even dare to turn around to look at her, for fear of accidentally kissing her, which would then be something he wouldn't be able to explain.

"It smells great, right? I added a secret seasoning. Take a break first. The meal will be ready in half an hour."

"Hmm~~" Shiyu smiled slightly and put her delicate hands on Bai Ye's shoulders.

After Tomoya Aki left, she no longer needed to hide her feelings for Byakuya, and her every move was extremely intimate with him, and she almost had "Bai Ye's girlfriend" carved on her forehead.

Shiyu turned her head and met Kato Megumi's gaze, who glanced past her hand on Baiye's shoulder and returned to her face.

"Kato, do you need any help? I'm not very good with a knife, but I can wash the vegetables and mix the ingredients."

Kato Megumi shook her head slightly and her peeling movements suddenly became faster.

"The ingredients are almost ready. Kasumigaoka-senpai must be tired. Please go and rest first."

"Well then, thank you for your hard work, Kato-kun."

Seeing that Kato Megumi had no intention of giving up on "helping in the kitchen", Shiyu gave up the temptation and returned to the living room with iced oolong tea.

"Here, Sawamura-kun."

Eriri Sawamura took the iced oolong tea, quickly opened the lid, and gulped down the cup.

"Huh~ I'm so thirsty. Where have you been, Kasumigaoka? You're so slow in getting me an oolong tea."

"fine."

Shiyu stared at Eriri Sawamura, which made the latter feel a little uneasy.

"What do you want to do, Kasumigaoka? You're just complaining, and you're trying to scheme against me? I won't fall for it!"

Shiyu was very happy about Sawamura Eriri's confusing attitude. As long as she didn't get involved in the vortex between herself, Byakuya, and Kato Megumi, it didn't matter if she complained a few times. She could just treat it as the spice of life.

"Sawamura-kun, please don't get paranoid. I'm not malicious for no reason. After what happened with Ethics-kun, I feel like I've become much more tolerant."

Eriri Sawamura found it strange.

She didn't know many details about what had happened recently between Kasumigaoka and Tomoya, and the fact that Kasumigaoka gave up on Tomoya was enough to surprise her for a while.

However, she was still skeptical about the gloomy woman in front of her saying that her stomach had grown greatly.

"So what if it's bigger? Who knows where your sensitive spots are? Maybe there are more of them than the stars in the sky..."

"There's no need to be so wary of me. Sawamura-kun and I don't have any conflicts at the moment. We get along just fine like this."

As she spoke, Shiyu unpacked a bag of potato chips and handed it to her as a gesture of goodwill.

"Weird..." Sawamura Eriri muttered softly, but did not refuse her kindness and grabbed a handful of potato chips from the bag.

Then, Shiyu handed the potato chips to Michiru Hyodo.

"Would you like to eat something, Bingtang? Although Xiao Jun said that dinner will be served in half an hour, based on past experience, they will have to dawdle for a while longer."

"Oh, thank you."

As a new member of the club, Michiru Hyodo did not refuse the kindness of her senior. After playing with Xiao Mi for so long, she was a little hungry.

"Did you often have dinner together on weekends before?"

Sawamura Eriri was busy chewing potato chips and shook her head in response, while Shiyu took over the conversation.

"The first time we had a dinner at Xiao Jun's house was at the end of the first month of the club's establishment. That week happened to be the week the school was reclaiming the multimedia room, so we ended up coming."

Although it happened almost two months ago, Shiyu still remembers it vividly because that was the day she confirmed her recognition of Bai Ye.

"Last month, I came to Xiao Jun's house every two weeks, and the rest of the time I went to the cafe. I went to Lun Lijun's house once, but this month, I've been to Xiao Jun's house almost every weekend."

"After all, Xiaojun lives alone, has a cat and food, and doesn't have to worry about being disturbed by his family. It's really the best gathering place."

"Isn't this just freeloading?!" Bai Ye turned around, waving his spatula and complaining, "Also, these are the potato chips I bought, why did you, Shiyu, take them away as a favor?"

Shiyu ate several potato chips at once and deliberately chewed them to make a crunching sound.

"It's because you, Xiaojun, delayed dinner. If we had dinner when we came back, would it still be like this? Are you sure you don't want to apologize to Potato Chips?"

white night"……"

Shiyu kept talking one thing after another, almost making Bai Ye think that he was the culprit who "killed" the potato chips.

Moreover, Shiyu brought the topic back to "dinner" and words like "late", which made Bai Ye afraid that the fact that he had just hugged Kato Megumi would be exposed. He could only shed tears for the sacrifice of "Potato Chips Brother" while swallowing his anger and tears.

At this time, Kato Megumi came to the living room with two plates of food and several pairs of bowls and chopsticks.

"If you're hungry, here are some toast and appetizers."

The bread slices are dried and have a crisp texture, like large biscuits. The appetizer is also smashed cucumber mixed with peanuts, with sesame oil drizzled on the surface.

As a foodie, Eriri Sawamura couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks, and Michiru Hyodo followed closely behind.

"Kato-san, did you do this?"

Kato Megumi nodded, sat down with everyone, picked up some smashed cucumber with chopsticks, and put it in her mouth to taste it carefully.

“The taste is okay.”

"It tastes great!" Hyodo Michiru made sandwich cookies with toasted bread and smashed cucumber, and praised them generously. "If anyone could be Kato-san's boyfriend, they would be very happy!"

The speaker has no intention, the listener has the heart.

Shiyu, Kato Megumi, and Bai Ye paused their movements at the same time, and then immediately returned to normal.

Kato Megumi put down the chopsticks she was chewing and said without raising her head:

"Hyoudou-kun, please stop joking."

"Hahaha, sorry..."

Eriri Sawamura was already immersed in the ocean of delicious food, enjoying her meal when she noticed something.

"This dish of smashed cucumber always feels like a good side dish for alcohol. I feel like having a drink."

The awkward atmosphere was broken by Sawamura Eriri's words. Shiyu didn't want the topic to be entangled with "boyfriends and girlfriends", so she took over the conversation.

"Kato-san, where did you learn this dish?"

"I just learned it. It's on the recipe at my senior's house."

"Which one? I also want to learn how to cook."

"The one hanging by the refrigerator."

Shiyu and Kato Megumi raised their right hands at the same time and pointed at the refrigerator, and Hyodo Miruchi's eyes suddenly lit up, as if she had discovered a new world.

"Hey~~ Kasumigaoka-san and Kato-san both have bracelets? They look exactly the same!"

Stayed up late again, please give me some votes so I can sleep better...

Chapter 152 Shiyu and Kato Megumi have a good understanding

Bai Ye's stir-frying movements suddenly stopped, and when he came to his senses, his cooking movements became much gentler.

Ever since Aki Tomoya mentioned the "red bracelet" once during the club activity three weeks ago, no one has mentioned it again, and Shiyu and Kato Megumi have been wearing it all the time.

Bai Ye was very curious. Now that Shiyu and Kato Megumi both knew each other's feelings, how would they view the "red bracelet".

Shiyu likes to take the initiative, so she spoke first.

"I've mentioned the bracelet incident before. Um... Hyodou-san wasn't around at the time. Here's what happened."

Shiyu repeated what she had said to Tomoya Aki to Michiru Hyodo, still ignoring Bai Ye's existence and making it seem like they just met by chance while shopping.

After saying that, Shiyu turned her head with a smile on her face.

"Isn't that so, Kato-kun?"

There was no fluctuation on Kato Megumi's face, and she continued to eat at a steady pace. It seemed that she didn't say anything because there was food in her mouth, but nodded instead.

"You two have such a great relationship!"

Michiru Hyodo smiled because their experience was quite similar to her own experience of meeting the music team members.

He does not mean that.

Eriri Sawamura raised her head and looked between Shiwa and Kato Megumi with a puzzled look on her face, even her eating movements slowed down.

"Are you really in a good relationship?"

She suddenly met Shiyu's "kind" eyes, and realized that her words were inappropriate, so she quickly changed her words.

"Uh... I mean, your relationship is weird. You can give each other gifts, but you don't usually talk to each other."

This sentence hit the vital point of both of them.

This set of rhetoric was originally intended to deal with Aki Tomoya, in order to cover up the fact that Byakuya also possessed a red bracelet.

Love rivals are extremely jealous when they meet.

Although it’s not to this extent, how is it possible to get them to communicate actively?

Shiyu and Kato Megumi turned their heads at the same time to meet each other's gazes, as if they were making eye contact, and then they looked away at the same time.

"Sawamura-kun, whether a relationship is good or not doesn't necessarily need to be defined by communication, right?"

"Uh...really?"

Just then, Bai Ye arrived with steaming hot food.

He could hear the girls' conversation clearly, especially what Eriri Sawamura said.

This sparked an idea in Bai Ye.

Both Shiyu and Kato Megumi need this lie to maintain their relationship in the club. The former does it to pay off her debts, and the latter does it to sever ties. In order to prevent Aki Tomoya from doing something extreme, they need to proceed step by step.

There is a window period here.

A window of opportunity for Shiyu and Kato Megumi to develop their relationship.

Bai Ye squeezed in between them and brought the food to the table.

"I think Sawamura-san missed it."

"what?"

"Kasumigaoka-san and Kato-san seem to be getting along pretty well. They've been discussing the plot together all afternoon. You were so busy drawing, you didn't notice, did you?"

Eriri Sawamura's attention was already attracted by the fragrant food on the table, and she didn't care much about this matter.

"It seems so... Never mind, let's eat."

Shiyu and Kato Megumi breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and Bai Ye held their hands where they couldn't see each other.

"Who can help me serve the food?"
