He had to report to the main family in Kyoto every day, while secretly monitoring Kaguya's whereabouts and reporting her betrayal.
Doing this kind of thing, she would suffer from the guilt that kept churning in her heart every night.
Watching videos of hydraulic presses is just a bad habit I've developed for stress relief.
Now I feel completely refreshed, as if I've started anew. That's the feeling I had in Chiba.
"Then listen to me." Kaguya Shinomiya used her uniquely charming way of pleading, "Hayasaka! I need you!"
In the past, Hayasaka would always agree to his whims after he said that.
"Ha, how capricious," Hayasaka Ai said, both amused and exasperated. "Kaguya-sama hasn't changed at all."
"Yeah, that's just how capricious I am," Kaguya Shinomiya proudly admitted, her hand lightly supporting her chest. "I'll talk to the president about it later."
"Hmm, speaking of which, has Kaguya and the president made any progress while I was away?"
"Absolutely not."
"What's there to be proud of!" Honestly, she really can't expect Kaguya-sama to accomplish anything on her own.
"That's why I need you, Hayasaka!" Without Hayasaka, I don't even have anyone to talk to, which is why I haven't made any progress with the president.
"Ah~ Ah~, I know, I'll think of a way."
Hearing that Hayasaka Ai seemed to have a good idea, Shinomiya Kaguya immediately nodded, "That's right."
"Well, anyway, Kaguya-sama should reflect on herself first." How come there's been zero progress after all this time?
-----------------
"How come there's been zero progress after all this time?"
Even if you ask me that...
Uesugi Genshin and Shirogane Miyuki sat on a bench by the roadside.
"This is putting me in a difficult position." Uesugi Genshin rubbed his forehead, looking troubled, and earnestly pleaded, "Could you please confess tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow?!" Shirogane Miyuki was speechless for a moment. "What a ridiculous thing are you talking about? The time is too tight, I'm not mentally prepared at all."
"Love needs to be won with speed. The reason you're not making progress is because you're hesitant and afraid to confess. Once you like someone, you should confess immediately. Waiting for them to confess is just an excuse to avoid it! You don't know when you'll die, are you planning to hide your feelings until the very end?"
"I know." He knew very well that this wouldn't work. If something unexpected happened one day, he would never be able to say those words again. "I know all that, but I'm afraid! I don't dare to confess!"
"You dare to kill zombies, what else wouldn't you dare to do?!" Uesugi Genshin stood up angrily and roared at him, "I didn't even dare to tell you to confess today! I even thoughtfully gave you a day to prepare."
"This is not the same thing as that! Is confessing your feelings so easy to say?!" He would rather fight zombies than confess his feelings if he might fail.
“Yes, it’s very simple,” Uesugi Genshin asserted.
"That sounds nice!" Shirogane Miyuki retorted, completely unconvinced.
"Hey bro, Uesugi-senpai, what are you guys shouting about? We can hear a lot of noise from over there."
A girl's voice came from afar, her light white hair and delicate face revealed her walking towards them.
"Kei?" Shirogane Miyuki looked up from his seat and watched his sister walk over. "No, there's nothing there."
I absolutely cannot tell my sister about something so shameful.
"Well." Placing his hand on Shirogane's shoulder, Uesugi Genshin looked at the girl opposite him and called out, "Kei!"
"What is it, Uesugi-senpai?"
"I like you, will you go out with me?"
Chapter 241: You Are Very Important to Me
"Hey~" Shirogane Miyuki suddenly looked up at Uesugi Genshin. Although he said he didn't believe it, he didn't ask him to confess to his sister!
"Then may I ask what you like about me, Uesugi-senpai?" Shirogane Kei hesitated, crossing his hands below his chest, his face flushed and his voice trembling slightly at the end of his sentence. The next moment, he clenched his fist tightly.
"I really like you because you're hardworking, have a strong sense of self-respect, and are straightforward. Also, Kei, you're a very kind and caring girl, which fascinates me. At the same time, your seemingly cold demeanor is also very cute. I love you." Uesugi Genshin listed Shirogane Kei's good points and adorable qualities.
"It seems Uesugi-senpai is serious." After hearing this, Shirogane Kei's face flushed, and he stammered, "I promise you."
"I disagree!" Shirogane Miyuki stood up, vehemently objecting, then suddenly realized something, pointing a trembling finger at his sister, "Speaking of which, Kei! You must have heard our conversation just now, right?"
These two are acting as him?!
Thinking of this, Shirogane Miyuki turned back to look at Uesugi beside him.
"Brother-in-law, what's wrong with me?" Uesugi Genshin asked, shrugging and scratching his cheek in confusion.
"Don't call me brother-in-law!!!" Upon hearing such an ominous title, Shirogane Miyuki covered his head with his hands and shouted at the sky.
"Hey bro, this is really noisy!" Shirogane Kei said to his brother with a look of disgust, covering his ears with his fingers. Then he realized something and looked at Uesugi Genshin.
She blushed silently and turned away, as if she had just revealed her personality when she was with her brother in private.
"By the way, this contrast is really cute. Kei, so this is how you get along at home." Uesugi Genshin teased, looking at Shirogane Kei's blushing face.
"Hey! What are you saying to my sister in front of me?!" Shirogane Miyuki, now a sister-complex, lowered his hand and warned the person.
"Brother, you're too scared to confess, right? Who's the girl?" Bai Yin Gui, now back to normal, forcefully interrupted, bringing the topic back to where it started. She was genuinely curious.
"There's nothing there!" Shirogane Miyuki had no intention of saying it; he absolutely refused to.
"Hey~, tell me what you think, maybe I can give you some advice." With his hands on his hips, Bai Yin Gui looked down at his older brother with a condescending attitude.
I'm really curious. How could a guy like someone? After all, he's already this age and hasn't even been in a relationship before. It's really not like that.
"I told you there was nothing." Shirogane Miyuki covered his ears tightly with both hands, as if he couldn't hear anything at all, and shook his head vigorously.
"Fine!!!" Bai Yin Gui, who rarely wanted to listen, turned around angrily. "Since you're not going to talk, hmph!"
She snorted angrily yet somewhat endearingly as she walked away in the opposite direction she had come from, clearly a little angry.
"I've already demonstrated it for you, so do you want to confess?" Uesugi Genshin watched Shirogane Kei's figure disappear around the corner before turning back to look at Shirogane Miyuki.
"Isn't this a scam? None of this is real!" Shirogane Miyuki accused the man and his sister of conspiring to put on a show for him.
"Well, it's not a scam, I really like Kei."
Who wouldn't love a white-haired beauty? Even with a small bust, she's still incredibly cute. In fact, Kei's bust size is already at the Tokyo average, and she's only a middle school student!
"Hey! She's only 14 years old." At the very least, she should be in high school.
Seeing that Shirogane was getting anxious, Uesugi Genshin laughed, "Kei doesn't have any romantic feelings for me, so please don't worry about that."
Gui's feelings for him were more of an admiration for a senior than romantic love.
However, in reality, Shirogane's sister also has an impeccable poker face, making it difficult to discern the true situation.
But as Baiyin said, he's still a bit too young; in Chinese terms, he's not even fully grown yet.
"In short, I don't admit that this is fake." With his arms crossed over his chest, Shirogane Miyuki emphasized.
"How ugly!" Uesugi Genshin was gradually losing patience with Shirogane's childish behavior, but Hayasaka Ai was very important to him, so he had to make Shirogane confess no matter what. "I'm asking you!"
"what?"
"If I demonstrate it to you again, you'll really confess, right?" Uesugi Genshin was determined to go head-to-head with Shirogane Miyuki.
Compared to trying to find a solution from another side, this approach is definitely more direct.
"Ah, if it's true, I will definitely go." Nodding, Shirogane Miyuki made a solemn promise.
"Then I'll believe you." Uesugi Genshin grabbed Shirogane's arm and pulled him up. "Let's go."
"Where to?" Shirogane Miyuki was forced to stand up, somewhat surprised.
"Go find someone you can confess to." Sensing that he was starting to follow, Uesugi Genshin released his arm.
"Now?!" Even more surprised, Shirogane Miyuki vaguely sensed that his confession seemed to be more important to him than he had imagined. "By the way, who are you planning to talk to?"
“He must have asked someone he knows.” With a deep, speechless sigh, Uesugi Genshin was fully prepared for the rejection of his confession. “He couldn’t possibly ask someone he doesn’t know at all.”
"That's right. So you have a target?" Since there's no emotional foundation between complete strangers, the fact that a confession can be successful only means that both parties are burning with desire.
"Hmm..." Uesugi Genshin thought for a moment and then suggested a candidate, "What do you think of Dragon Ball?"
I've met Dragon Ball Peach once before, and we clicked. But now I need to be prepared for an awkward meeting in the future, and I wonder if I'll get scolded?
"Good luck." The words of blessing slipped out, but Shirogane Miyuki had no idea he would succeed; on the contrary, he was certain to fail.
Thinking back to when I was in the student council administration, Longzhu was in charge of accounting. Back then, she often verbally abused me, even though I knew that was just her style of speaking.
"Then whoever we meet first, that's who we'll meet." Seeing Shirogane's questioning expression, Uesugi Genshin decided to grant his wish.
If you're going to do it, then go all in.
"Oh." Seriously, this guy is serious.
The two began to wander aimlessly around the campus, this time with Shirogane Miyuki, giving Uesugi Genshin a different feeling.
It's probably similar to when he led people around aimlessly at Soubu High School, except now he's the one accompanying him.
It's quite novel.
At this moment, Uesugi Genshin just hoped he wouldn't encounter any strange people.
That's what they say, but then they see the people they absolutely don't want to see deep down.
They are walking towards us step by step.
A stunningly beautiful black-haired girl who could make any man fall in love at first sight.
Uesugi Genshin hesitated for a long time, biting his lower lip tightly. Finally, under Shirogane's gaze, he took a few steps forward, and the other man saw him too.
Then, Uesugi Genshin looked at her with an extremely serious expression and said, "Yukinoshita, I like you."
"?" Yukino Yukinoshita was taken aback at first, then her face remained calm. She glanced at the guild master Shirogane standing behind her and sighed deeply, "Please be serious!"
What does it mean?
Uesugi Genshin had no way to ask anymore, because Yukinoshita had already left quickly.
"No matter what, it's been a success," he said, turning to look at Shirogane Miyuki behind him. "How was it?"
"Confessing your feelings too casually?" Shirogane Miyuki complained with a forced expression, "It still won't work."
These words made Uesugi Genshin's forehead feel like it was going to explode. He immediately rushed up to him, grabbed his collar, and loudly questioned, "Huh? Who do you think I'm confessing to while I already have a lover?"
"A lover? Isn't that someone you like?" That's why he said it was too casual, and then Shirogane Miyuki was shocked, "Confessing while already having a lover..."
"Who do you think it is?!" Uesugi Genshin was so angry he almost laughed. He gritted his teeth and pressed his face closer. "Go and confess right now."
Words filled with murderous intent tumbled from his mouth, one by one: "Or I'll kill you!"
"Oh, oh." Seeing the sacrifice Uesugi had made, Shirogane Miyuki answered tremblingly, "I'll go this afternoon."
"Phew..." Finally done.
Sitting alone on the bench, I felt a chill despite the bright sunshine.
While passing the time by thinking about whatever would be best, she opened her eyes and glanced at the time to check it.
"Did you do something?" Hayasaka Ai, carrying a bento box, sat down silently, like a ninja.
"What?" Uesugi Genshin looked up at Hayasaka Ai, who had changed back into her Shuchika Academy uniform, and clutched his chest absently. "Sorry, I didn't hear you. Ah, my heart feels a little uncomfortable."
"What did you do? Something must have happened, right?" Hayasaka Ai placed the bento box next to him, a smile playing on her lips, and sat down. "Otherwise, you wouldn't have asked me to hand over the bento."
Of course, she didn't know if it was because she had just run there, but when she came to the car, she saw Xuexia next to the car panting heavily, her cheeks flushed.
Is it due to work fatigue or just my imagination? Her eyes look very moist.
"In order to get Baiyin to confess, I first gave him a demonstration."
"Ha... why would I do something so stupid?" Hayasaka Ai covered her head in exasperation; this behavior immediately reminded her of Kaguya-sama.
"For you, this is the most efficient method I can think of." Uesugi Genshin silently looked away and muttered in a low voice, "I don't expect to be more important to you than Shinomiya Kaguya."
It's obvious that Kaguya Shinomiya, though nominally a mistress and servant, is more important to Hayasaka than her sister.
"What an idiot." Turning her gaze to the opposite side, Hayasaka Ai placed her hands behind her back on the chair, pausing there as if unable to say what she was saying.
He hadn't shown any intention to keep her before, so why is he doing this so desperately?
As for whether he or Kaguya-sama is more important, there's no comparison at all, because their roles are completely different.
"Since you've made such a big sacrifice, the president should be settled by now, right?" Seeing him still clutching his chest in distress, it seems that the accountant's hasty confession was a huge blow to him, and it's not good for his heart.
