12.25th.

Christmas.

In the school, because of Saionji Akino, the funding of the entire school has been increased by the government by several grades, and it is even more expensive than those private high schools.

Therefore, I am naturally willing to spend more money on some festivals or school activities, and allocate funds to buy good things for decoration.

Looking out of the classroom window, a huge Christmas tree has been temporarily planted in the center of the playground, with countless lights and ribbons on it. At least it is a shocking effect that took half a month of manual work to achieve.

"There will be a special Christmas party in the playground tonight, interested students ......"

Asaba Oriyuki sat in the classroom, listening to the teacher's preaching, but she was completely unmotivated.

It's after school.

Someone came to invite her, but Asaba Oriyuki still refused.

After school, she planned to pick up Yili, but when she left the school gate, she was stopped by the three yellow-haired brothers.

"......" Oriyuki Asaba looked at them suspiciously.

She has an impression of these three people, they are Akino-kun's former classmates, and the relationship seems to be good.

It's just that since Akino-kun transferred to another school, they haven't said a word between them.

At most, when they meet, they will nod their heads and smile as a greeting.

"What's the matter?" Oriyuki Asaba asked with a "smile".

In the past, she never had to smile so hard, but now that she is depressed, it is really difficult for her to be as cheerful as before.

“……”

"Stupid, what a word!"

"Shut up! I know what to say, I was just a little nervous! ”

"Ahem, Asaka-san, the uncles and aunts in the commercial street of Suginami District said that they want you to go to their side, and there will be surprises waiting for you."

"Surprise?"

"We're here anyway, are you going...... It's up to you! ”

"How do you speak? Have a better attitude! The military advisor reprimanded Huang Mao and said to Asa Yu Oriyuki with a smile.

"Asaka-san, please make sure to go, please."

After watching the three of them run away in a frenzy, Asaba Oriyuki stood in place for a long time.

Then she picked up her phone and sent a message to Yili.

[Yili, I have some things, you go home first]

[Okay, sister]

While sending a message back to Oriyuki, Asaba Ichiri looked at Saionji Akino, who had changed into a bear doll costume at this time, and his eyes were full of envy.

Saionji Akino called all the girls who had a relationship with him over this morning, and didn't say anything else, just said that he wanted to ask them to participate in today's surprise arrangement.

This kind of please, in fact, is equivalent to a clear answer.

That is the rejection of everyone.

I chose the shallow feather oriyuki.

In this regard, all the girls also agreed to this matter, and they all hid their emotions.

Although Saionji Akino felt a little guilty about this, he did not regret making such a choice.

It's better to say that when his mind finally fell to the ground and he didn't need to be indecisive, he really felt very happy.

……

"A month has passed, and the result is still refusal." Komura Yujia complained irritably.

"All the efforts that should be done have been done, and if this is the case, there is no way." Fukuzawa Makoto's tone is still flat, although she also likes Saionji Akino, but compared to others, she is more inclined to platonic love.

So I haven't had much urge for excessive physical contact, such as kissing.

And now, he rejects everyone, but that doesn't mean he can't be friends with him, just that he has to keep his mouth shut when it comes to some sensitive topics in the future, that's all.

Kaoru Kijima was already disheartened, but whatever Saionji Akino asked her to do, she would still do it, calling her stupid or stupid, it didn't matter, it was just what she wanted to do.

Besides, she has never regretted falling in love with such a person.

On the other side, Rika Shinohara, who was also preparing, looked at Yueshan Dong and couldn't help but sigh.

"Winter, aren't you sad?"

"Why be sad?"

"Akino-senpai asked us to come over to help like this, just for the surprise of Sister Zhixue alone...... It means to reject all of us...... Aren't you sad to be rejected? ”

Yueshan Dong looked at her with a puzzled expression: "I was rejected? ”

"Impossible."

"Akino just asked us to prepare a surprise for Oriyuki, it has nothing to do with refusing or anything."

"He won't refuse me." Yueshandong confidently straightened her chest, and Rika Shinohara looked at her hard-mouthed and narcissistic appearance, and was about to hit her twice, but found that Yueshandong's hands had been clenched into fists, and she couldn't stop shaking......

So, Rika Shinohara, too, was silent.

……

Standing at the corner of the shopping street, Natsuryo Kawano changed into Santa Claus costume, with a white beard on his face, and kept handing out flyers to passers-by.

The same is true for Qianxue, the two of them didn't say a word the whole time, just silently completed the tasks assigned by Akino of Xiyuan Temple, and looked for the figure of Asaba Oriyuki in the crowd.

Kawano Natsuryo originally thought that through his own efforts, he would transfer the contradictions, and let Asaba Oriyuki gather the strength of others by hating himself, and finally form a harem.

She also thinks that this has a high success rate......

It's just that I didn't expect that in the end, it was vetoed by Saionji Akino.

Maybe the kiss last time, the kiss he allowed himself, was a simple accident, or he didn't react, and he didn't have any other thoughts at all.

He called himself Xia Liang, but he only forgave himself, not liked himself.

Natsu Kawano, who was hit again, can't be as tough as the immortal Xiaoqiang this time.

The highlights in her eyes had faded, and she just kept repeating, repeating what she had to do.

As for Sakuraba Chiyuki, she feels almost the same way, with ups and downs, and in the end, she can only send blessings to her brother as a younger sister.

Although she should have been satisfied, ...... Still can't be satisfied.

Suddenly, she saw the figure of Oriyuki Asaba, so she quickly stepped forward and greeted her, "Sister Oriyuki, Merry Christmas." ”

"Chiyuki ......?" Asaba Oriyuki obviously didn't expect her to be here.

What would be the surprise?

"Merry Christmas." Thinking about it, Asa Yu Weaving Xue still congratulated her.

"Sister Zhixue, there is a lottery in every store in the commercial street today, Sister Zhixue, you can take this flyer and go in, and you can check in one store at a time."

"One by one......" Oriyuki Asaba nodded thoughtfully, and then took the flyer.

At this time, Natsuryo Kawano on the other side also walked slowly towards her.

Although Kawano Natsuryo has a big white beard at this time, he is still very recognizable.

The meeting between the two was somewhat embarrassing.

After all, Asa Yu Zhixue hit her last time, it was the first time she slapped someone else, and she didn't even hit someone when she was pulled out by Xia Liang before......

Kawano Natsuryo's eyes returned to focus, and she looked at Oriyuki Asaba, and there were thousands of words to say in her heart.

In the end, it turned into a sentence.

"Congratulations and I wish you happiness."

“……？” Before Asaba Oriyuki could ask her what she meant, Natsuryo Kawano continued to hand out flyers.

It's just that figure, which looks lonely and sad.
