"So-you-kun, let's talk about the next thing. ”

Megumi Kato said softly. Although she hadn't gotten up yet, she was clearly awake and spoke clearly.

The confusion in his tone a few minutes ago was quietly replaced by a plant-like indifference.

Kato Sage Megumi - back online.

"We talked a lot last night, but looking back, it was mostly just small talk. So I think it's necessary to talk about it again. At the very least, the solution should be discussed. ”

"Oh, okay......"

Xia You felt his stomach twitch again. Bouts of pain.

It's not because he hasn't eaten breakfast on an empty stomach, but because he really doesn't feel like he can lift his head......

"I'll start with what I think. ”

didn't care about Xia You, who was embarrassed, and Megumi Kato said softly in a calm tone.

"I think the most reasonable solution is to treat last night's events as if they didn't happen. Then Xia Yutong - Yu-kun, you go and confess to Ayase and ask for forgiveness, and finally concentrate on making friends with Nishikino-san......"

"Impossible!"

Xia Yu thought that he could remain silent until the end, at least wait for Megumi Kato to finish his words before speaking. But sure enough, I couldn't bear it anymore - I was interrupted on the way.

In this regard, Megumi Kato was not angry, she quietly watched Xia Yu and waited for the following. There was a calm in the clear pupils.

And Xia You also looked back at each other without giving in. He said earnestly word by word: "To do is to do." In any case, I can't pass last night's events as if they didn't happen. I may dismiss what you say. ”

"That's ......"

Bowing slightly, Kato Megumi pursed her lips and her expression remained unchanged, so indifferent that she couldn't see any emotion. But there seemed to be a warm current gushing out of her chest, refreshing her heart.

To be honest, long before Natsuyu interrupted, Megumi Kato had expected him to say this. Because that's the kind of person he is.

But I know it, but I still want to hear him say something. Only then can Megumi Kato persevere and believe that her choice is not wrong.

“…… If you don't treat last night's incident as if it didn't happen, then what are you going to do? You can't just keep it hidden, right? I don't think you're going to break up with Nishikino-san for me, right?"

Despite the warmth of her heart, Megumi Kato's tone remained indifferent. Words do not give any chance to escape.

Her words hit Xia You's stomach head-on like a sharp arrow, making him feel even more stomachache and didn't know what to answer.

"Uh......"

"Or are you going to want that, Yu-kun - pedaling multiple boats at the same time and making all the girls happy?Hmm, I remember Ying Lili said before that it's called opening a harem, right? ”

"Uh......"

Xia You was hit by another arrow and was about to vomit blood.

Should I say that it really deserves to be the sage mode of Huihui? His little careful thought was seen through in a few or two moments.

But seriously, Xia You really didn't expect that he would one day hold a girl and discuss opening a harem or something with her - this kind of development made him feel even more unbelievable than going straight to home base last night.

“…… If you don't speak, you'll be acquiescing. ”

Glancing at him, Megumi Kato said in a low voice.

Hearing this, Xia You opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but after a while, he still chose to remain silent without an excuse. Because that's exactly what he intended.

Just when the atmosphere became more and more silent, and Xia You's heart became more and more bottomless and bottomless about the pill, Kato Megumi suddenly hugged him, and hugged his waist tightly with his hands. This made him stunned for a moment.

Megumi Kato buried her face under the covers and carefully hid it so that he could not see his expression. Only whispers of prickly, complaining, helpless, and wry smiles came out.

"What a scumbag...... You-kun you. ”

"Hmmm......"

It would be said that Xia You was not surprised at all, but nodded to himself. Whoever comes to see him is a scumbag. Superman scum. The scum is boundless. Maybe even Brother Cheng is not as scumbag as him.

After all, people are only stepping on two boats, but he is plotting to connect the boats.

However, Megumi Kato's many emotions are complicated, but the only angry tone still makes Xia You feel a little strange, he thought that this time he would inevitably be slapped.

Then he cautiously probed, "...... Megumi, aren't you angry?"

"I don't know ......"

Still buried under the covers and not poking her head out, Megumi Kato's voice was muffled — perhaps partly because she was upset.

"But ......"

"But what?"

Xia You subconsciously asked.

But Megumi Kato didn't answer him immediately, but paused as if in the brewing, and only exhaled a moment later and whispered with relief.

A smile slowly appeared on the face of the bed.

"But... It would be nice if we could keep the status quo – even after many, many years – and we could still get together like we do now......

"Megumi, you're ......"

Xia You hesitated for a moment.

He wanted to ask you if you were supporting me to open a harem in disguise, but at the same time, he felt that it was too shameless and incredible, so he hesitated and couldn't say it.

I didn't say anything. ”

Megumi Kato smiled slightly. Then she paused, pursed her lips and whispered.

"It's just...... I'll help if necessary. Yu-kun, do you remember what I said to you after the summer Comic? At least—try to lean on me. ”

Hearing this, many emotions mixed in his chest made Xia You speechless for a while, both surprised and moved. At the same time, he felt more and more indebted.

After a while, he nodded slowly.

“…… Okay, I got it. ”

"Hmm. Oh, and- Yu-kun, let's not say anything about the two of us beforehand. ”

Suddenly remembered something, Megumi Kato added.

"Hui ...... you"

Xia You immediately frowned, subconsciously thinking that she was going to say that she was going to say the proposal just now to treat last night's incident as if it hadn't happened.

But before Xia You finished speaking, Megumi Kato noticed his expression first, and explained half warmly and half funny.

"I mean, don't say it yet, or it will make the situation very messy. It's more cumbersome to deal with, isn't it?"

"Oh......"

Xia You breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement.

Indeed, at the moment, even the relationship with Mahime has not been announced, and if it is revealed that she has a relationship with Megumi Kato first, then not only the club, but even Mahime will definitely have an uncontrollable situation.

It's just that Xia You still can't help but feel a little weird in his heart. It's clear that he wants to open a harem, but I don't know how to do it, but now it's Megumi Kato who is helping him with advice......

Is this the so-called Shonomiya?

Super reliable!

"The first thing to solve now is to find an opportunity to tell everyone about your relationship with Nishikino-san. Because it's impossible to keep this kind of thing a secret forever. And the longer you keep it hidden, the more damage it will take. ”

Ignoring Xia You, who was clearly distracted, Megumi Kato said in his usual calm tone.

"Of course, you can't just say it, otherwise it will also cause big problems. You have to choose a good time. ”

"Uh, may I ask what a good time is—"

Xia You honestly raised his hand and asked. He felt that not only was he a scumbag, but he also seemed to be getting more and more wasteful, and even the opening of the harem had to be taught by girls.

After a pause, Megumi Kato shook his head and said, "I don't know, anyway, don't talk about it during this time." After all, isn't Kasumigaoka Senpai and Ruri's about to be released? If you choose to say it at this time, it will definitely affect them. ”

"Say... That's right. ”

Although she had known for a long time that Hui Hui was a hidden person, seeing that she was analyzing the current situation, she did not forget to consider that Senior Sister Shiyu and their new books were on sale, Xia You couldn't help but sigh to herself......

For a while, admiration, admiration, emotion, and many other emotions were intertwined in his chest.

Of course, more of a natural problem is guilt.

After all, asking a girl to help him think about how to open a harem is completely nonsense regardless of reason. I can't compensate her enough. Not to mention that the girl just gave him her first time last night.

"Hui ......"

Just when Xia You felt guilty and apologized, and was about to hug Kato Megumi to take good care of her, the latter suddenly opened his mouth.

She suddenly remembered something, and her eyes looked fixedly.

A gentle and friendly smile on his face.

"By the way, I finally figured out why you didn't mind me going to dinner with Keiichi before. ”

"Huh?"

Xia You was stunned for a moment, and then he began to break out in a cold sweat as if he realized something.

"-It turns out that you did it with your cousin Ayase~"

"Whoa, whoa, a——!a

After many days, the shameful and embarrassing old things were brought up again, the despicable and shameless jealous side of the personality was completely displayed, and the experience of public execution made Xia You scream.

Looking at the man who knelt in front of him and shouted sorry without dignity, the corners of Kato's mouth curled slightly. In his heart, he hummed slightly.

Acquiescence is acquiescence, but how can she really have no resentment at all?

Even saints have selfish intentions.
