Chapter 21: Settlement and Engagement

"I thought that after discussing for so long, there would still be some progress, so I decided to sit in on today's discussion, but, to be honest, I was disappointed. The voice under the snow was not very loud, but among a group of "kind" discussants who seemed to be seriously discussing the details of the problem, these harsh and somewhat abrupt words were enough to attract everyone's attention.

"Ah, this new one, is it a senior sister? It looks very strict, if you have any opinions-"

"—If I have any opinions, will President Jade Rope take them?"

"Absolutely!I'd like to listen to everyone, but I'd also like everyone to make some compromises on their own ideas to achieve a win-win effect. ”

"That's why I'm very disappointed in you! Yubihama has already pointed out the time problem, and you are still playing a game called 'discussion' as if you are showing off your eloquence, and there is no content, and at the end of the day, do you want to say something like 'we have done our best, it doesn't matter if we don't complete the task, the most important thing is the process, not the result'?"

The jade rope on the opposite side had obviously not seen the frozen aura under the snow, and was shocked by this serious expression, and he couldn't even say anything for a while.

"Absorb everyone's opinions, and then mix them up without saying anything, and seem to be in control of the situation on the field, but in fact it is just relying on the help of other people. When something goes wrong, it is really a very sad thing to flexibly throw the responsibility that should belong to you to 'everyone' and to 'everyone', and in the face of everyone's accusations, you keep explaining that 'you did this because you thought so about me at that time, and you can't blame me'!"

Jade Rope pursed his lips, and when the thoughts in his heart were revealed in such a sharp way, it was difficult for him to maintain the smiling appearance he had just faced.

"And do you really think that if the project fails in the end, you can use excuses like 'everyone decided together' to evade your own responsibility? No, because 'everyone' can never be held accountable for the problem, and even if it is really 'everyone' who does something wrong, it is the decision-maker—at least the nominal decision-maker—who is responsible, and when it fails, the spearhead will still be directed at you, President Tama-rope." ”

"If you want to stay, please stop playing the game, and if you can't do it, the president of our side will be happy to take over. Of course, if you are still unwilling to make a decision, the general Wugao will withdraw from the cooperation with you - in this way, the budget problem of the 'limited' you just mentioned is probably not just a 'limited' problem, right?"

"Are you threatening me?" Tamaki's eyes widened in disbelief and asked, "By this time, will you be able to find any other partner schools?"

"Even if we can't find it, we can use our own limited budget to complete our own Christmas project, and at the end of the day, I didn't understand what this joint project between the two schools was—"

Under the snow, Issei pulled her sleeve a little embarrassedly, and finally stopped talking under the snow.

"Well, Xiaoxue's meaning is actually not so exaggerated, Xiaoxue just thinks that if everyone can discuss a plan more down-to-earth, in fact, the progress of the discussion will be much faster now, and Xiaocaiyu actually has some of our own ideas, well, in short, it's not that nervous, haha!" Yui, who has always been accustomed to making indifferent speeches under the snow, stood up and explained.

Although my sister's speech should be habitual to adjust the atmosphere, objectively, the combination of her and the soft and hard under the snow is just right to scare the student council members opposite.

"Now, if President Isshiki has any good ideas, you can talk about them specifically," President Jade Rope squeezed a few words out of his mouth with great difficulty, and when he saw the gaze cast at him under the snow, he subconsciously shuddered, "-Well, it's just a simple discussion, see what the problem is, if there is no problem, we can continue to implement this plan, after all, it's too late!"

The relaxed atmosphere at the venue is gone, but the sticky and non-progressing project is finally starting to take place.

---------------------------------------- Dividing Line------------------------------------------

"So it turns out that being tough on the other party can solve so many problems? After the discussion, Isshiki stretched and said with some surprise.

"To adopt a tough attitude, you must also have the corresponding speech and aura, if you are just strong outside, it is easy to be seen by the other party, after all, the other party is just pretending to be calm, at this time you will fall into a protracted war of pretending to be tough with each other, and the final situation is no different from now. ”

"Yes, yes, so it's worthy of being a senior under the snow!It just so happens that there aren't enough people I know who are good at this kind of thing, and only the senior can do this!" Isshiki gave a proper compliment to the snow.

"That doesn't sound like a compliment," Xue Xia frowned, "and the kind of people you know who can solve problems this way—"

The snow quickly glanced at me.

Again, I resolutely ignored her insinuation.

"However, I feel that Xiaoxue's statement is very similar to Xiaohe's statement when he was tough!" However, the hint that I ignored was pulled out by the old lady.

I really don't know what kind of being my sister really is—sometimes she seems to have a very accurate grasp of the atmosphere, but sometimes she says things that give me a lot of headaches.

I pressed my temples, ready for another attack under the snow.

However, Yukino didn't seem to seize this opportunity, she just turned around and replied softly, "Is that so? Yui also had a delusion, right?"

"Eh, although Xiaohe hasn't done this kind of thing for a long time, I still remember the way Xiaohe looked when he said these words very clearly!"

"It's all the same when you're tough, and it's not impossible that you'll get us confused. ”

"Is that really the case?"

"Well, don't discuss who is imitating whom, at least the problem has been solved now, isn't it the best?"

I can continue to see Isshiki squeezing an eyebrow at me after finishing the job, and then asking for something like that.

However, this did not become a reality.

After being silent with Yui under the snow, Isshiki just continued to say calmly, "Let's discuss the next division of tasks, shall we?"

- Isshiki is no longer the girl who would think about giving me a little favor and then relishing it and letting me do all kinds of things to help her.

Here's how she changed.

"The next work of negotiating with the other party will be done by me and Yui Senpai, right? Although the words of the seniors under the snow just now are very deterrent, but after all, this can only be used once, and the other party will definitely be dissatisfied if they keep forcing the other party to obey. ”

"No problem!" my sister nodded confidently.

"Then, the implementation and review of the specific details of the student council will be handed over to the seniors and He? This is basically the same as what you did during the cultural festival, and now the members of the student council are basically first-year students, and the seniors under the snow can completely suppress them, or it is no problem to call them to their heart's content! This is also a way for them to exercise and improve their abilities. ”

"Obviously not doing it yourself?" I squinted and glanced at each other.

"After all, as the president, I have to do more important work than trivial matters!" said Isshiki Masaki.

"Well, I'm okay anyway. Nodding, I looked under the snow.

"Can I too?" I saw my body under the snow turn around again—why did she always turn around when answering questions?

"Of course, everyone will participate in the last Christmas day event, no problem, right?"

"No problem!"

"Ah, are you sure you can participate, right?, no problem?"

"Uh, it's no problem at all, I've already decided to help, how can I not help in the end?"

"It's Christmas Day, and school is already closed!"

"I know it's a holiday, isn't it already a long time ago?"

"Then Xiaohe can't go back!"

"All said, I was sure I was going to participate from the beginning, why should I go back?"

I was a little confused by my sister's question, and I even thought carefully about whether I had any reservations and arrangements around Christmas.

The answer, of course, is no.

"Then, Xiaohe, you have to promise me, even if there is an accident next, you can't go back, this is a Christmas event that we all organize and participate in together, and no one can do it without it!" However, my sister still took the trouble to confirm with me, and she even stretched out her finger to make an agreement with me.

"Okay, okay, I know!" I somehow stretched out my finger and tugged at Yui.

Looking at the expression of the old lady who withdrew her hand contentedly, I even had the illusion that I had indeed overlooked something important.
