Chapter 181: Tell Senior a Secret
Ryūzu Momo's sudden remark caught Shirogane Miyuki off guard. He was about to say something, but was stopped by Shinomiya Kaguya's gaze.
Staring at Ryūzu Momo across from her, Shinomiya Kaguya knew that what she said was true. On the surface, she did appear glamorous, but in reality, it was not much different from being kept in captivity by the Shinomiya Family.
"It seems I can't just sit back and do nothing; I must do something."
Shinomiya Kaguya's mindset began to change slightly from this moment.
Exhaling softly, Shinomiya Kaguya looked at her and said, "Today, thank you for your help. I, Shinomiya Kaguya, will remember this favor. Within my capabilities, I can grant you one wish."
"Oh my, that's really nice."
Ryūzu Momo showed a satisfied smile and said, "It's the first time I've heard you say that, Shinomiya. But there's no need for repayment or anything. I helped because I promised Shirogane, and I never intended to get anything from you."
Narrowing her eyes, Shinomiya Kaguya said softly, "You said that yourself; it'll expire."
"I, Ryūzu Momo, keep my word, and I lack nothing."
At this moment, the other VIPs also walked over, and Shinomiya Kaguya did not neglect them, thanking each one.
Meanwhile, Kaede was standing with Kitamura Yusaku.
Pushing up his glasses, Kitamura Yusaku whispered, "Although I've seen her once before, I didn't expect Fujiwara-senpai's older sister to be even more exaggerated."
Big, big, big, big!
As a university student, Fujiwara Toyomi's figure was naturally more explosive than her younger sister Fujiwara Chika, and coupled with wearing only a form-fitting yukata, she truly stood at an unrivaled top position among all the girls present.
Didn't you see Oosaka Taiga, after seeing Fujiwara Toyomi appear, her mind started to wander?
Someone like Takasu Yasuko, with her age, if she was big, Oosaka Taiga could understand, but Fujiwara Toyomi... No, it's too exaggerated, it's really too exaggerated, Oosaka Taiga felt like she would have nightmares tonight.
"So big... isn't it tiring?"
This heartfelt question made several girls fall silent.
Fujiwara Moeha looked at Shirogane Kei, who was bowing her head and sighing softly beside her, then looked at herself, and whispered, "Big sister said it can indeed be quite tiring. Ah, ah, it looks like I'll need a few more years to reach that level."
You too?
Combining the figures of the two older Fujiwara sisters, Shirogane Kei looked at her good friend, feeling inexplicably envious.
The discussion about figures ended here; the fireworks festival was set to begin in fifteen minutes.
And just at this moment, Kaede, who was complaining to Kitamura Yusaku, heard Shinomiya Kaguya's voice.
"Asakura-kun, do you have a moment? There's something I want to talk to you about."
Turning around, Kaede looked at Shinomiya Kaguya, who had a gentle smile on her face, and for some inexplicable reason, felt a chill in his heart, but still nodded: "Yes."
Watching the two walk away, Ishigami Yuu clasped his hands together and whispered, "I hope everything's alright."
Takasu Ryuji: "...Is it that serious?"
After arriving at a spot slightly away from the crowd, Kaede looked at Shinomiya Kaguya and asked, "Senior, is there something you need?"
"Asakura-kun." Stopping, Shinomiya Kaguya looked at the boy in front of her and said in a low voice, "You should know that if your proposed method is not handled properly, it could affect President, right?"
As expected, it was about this.
Kaede felt a little calmer in his heart and nodded, "I know, and I've already discussed the potential impact with Senior Shirogane. But there's nothing for it, for Shinomiya-senpai, Senior Shirogane truly dares to go through hell and high water. Instead of asking me about these things, Senior, you should really thank Senior Shirogane! This afternoon, he was very remorseful at first because he couldn't take you to see the fireworks festival, and it was precisely because of that, that I finally proposed this plan to him."
"Eh?"
Although Kaede didn't say it too explicitly, Shinomiya Kaguya clearly understood the meaning behind his words, and a blush appeared on her fair face.
"President, did he really think that?"
"Of course, I have no reason to lie to you, Senior."
To prevent Shinomiya Kaguya from dwelling on this matter and questioning him, Kaede had to redirect her attention to Shirogane Miyuki.
Glancing at Shirogane Miyuki not far away, Kaede whispered, "And Senior, I've discovered a secret about Senior Shirogane."
"A secret?" Although she was very curious, Shinomiya Kaguya still insisted, "Secrets like that shouldn't be spread casually; it's not good for President."
"Are you really not curious, Senior?" Kaede's face showed a mischievous smile, "I know it's not good to spread secrets casually, but this one, telling you, Senior, is absolutely no problem. And I think, Shinomiya-senpai, you probably have already noticed it yourself."
After a pause, Kaede then said, "Senior, Senior Shirogane likes you, do you know that?"
Shinomiya Kaguya instantly froze, truly frozen and motionless, as if even her heartbeat had stopped. Then, under Kaede's gaze, her face immediately turned crimson, and her expression became uncontrollable.
"Y-y-you... Asakura-kun, you shouldn't just spout nonsense!"
"Why would I spout nonsense?" Kaede stated confidently. "I can guarantee this is 100 percent true. Senior Shirogane definitely harbors romantic feelings for you, Senior."
Under the "leak" provided by Kaede, Shinomiya Kaguya became shy, completely forgetting the original reason she had called Kaede over.
Seeing this, Kaede continued, "In short, I've told you this, Senior, but please don't let Senior know, okay? Also, as someone who is already in a relationship, I want to give you a small piece of advice, Senior. In love, you can't always cling to blind pride and arrogance. Please think carefully about what it is you truly desire in your heart."
After speaking, he didn't wait for Shinomiya Kaguya's reaction and walked toward Eriri.
A few seconds later, Shinomiya Kaguya recovered and looked at Kaede's retreating back, whispering, "Arrogance and pride... and what I truly desire?"
...After returning safely, Kaede immediately went to Eriri's side, took her hand, and said with a smile, "Phew, I escaped, I escaped."
"Kaede-kun, Senior didn't interrogate you, did she?"
"Don't worry," Kaede said, raising his hand to form an OK sign. "I have my methods. Senior doesn't have the mind to question me right now."
Hearing this, Eriri looked over at Shinomiya Kaguya, who was walking back to Shirogane Miyuki's side with a shy expression, and was very curious about what Kaede had said.
"Kaede... Ah, my milk tea!"
Turning her head, she saw Kaede biting the straw of her milk tea and taking a large gulp.
