Lin Xi didn't know.
The boy he had helped, Kanda Sorata, had already given him a wonderful assist.
Directly solving the task of getting Aoyama Nanami to move into Sakurasou.
Lin Xi had already returned to the classroom at this moment, sitting in his seat.
Lin Xi doesn't have the habit of actively greeting his classmates, he just nodded to Hachiman Hikigaya who was looking at him, and then sat down in his seat.
He's happy to have peace and quiet if no one comes to bother him.
If it were someone like Hayato Hayama, smiling at everyone and greeting them kindly.
He would find it tiring.
Living in this world, doing your own thing is the most important thing.
Some people are destined to be just passersby in life.
Therefore, he only needs to pay attention to greeting the beautiful girls he cares about, and that's okay.
Hehe.
His dream is to continue expanding Sakurasou and develop all the girls he likes into residents of Sakurasou.
In that case.
Sakurasou can be renamed the Crystal Palace.
"Hmph ~"
Seeing him grinning foolishly, Shiina Mahiru inexplicably got angry and couldn't help but snort coldly.
The sound was just loud enough for him to hear.
Lin Xi was stunned, and subconsciously turned his head to look at this beautiful blonde girl.
"Shiina-san, I have a question I want to ask you."
"Since this morning, you and Sumireko have been glaring at me from time to time. Where did I offend you?"
Shiina Mahiru clenched her fist and turned her head to glance at him.
You have the nerve to ask?
Yesterday, she saw this guy go to the third floor and never come down.
Later, Ogiwara Sayu also went up.
And didn't come down either.
Thinking of what Ogiwara Sayu had once said, how could she not guess what he was doing to the two girls?
"Uh, are you looking down on me?"
Looking at her eyes, Lin Xi said depressedly.
"No, you're mistaken, I just have a stuffy nose, so I just snorted."
She said casually, turning her head away, as if she didn't want to see him.
Lin Xi: "… … …"
Good heavens.
This excuse is even worse than the one he told Sumireko last time.
A stuffy nose makes you snort coldly in a tsundere way?
Shouldn't you use a tissue to blow your nose?
Lin Xi stared at her a few more times, then withdrew his gaze, his mood becoming cheerful.
He probably guessed it.
Shiina Mahiru has already discovered his philandering last night.
She will be angry because of this.
That's a good thing.
Because if you don't care, there won't be any emotional changes.
However, Shiina Mahiru lives next door to him, so it's normal to find out about his affairs.
But what about Sanseiin Sumireko?
Did she get jealous seeing him and Shiina Mahiru going to school together?
It is estimated that Lin Xi would not have thought that a certain black-bellied beautiful girl was actually peeping at Sakurasou with binoculars.
While there was still time before class, Lin Xi took out his phone and sent a message to Sanseiin Sumireko.
"Sumireko, want to hang out at noon?"
Sanseiin Sumireko: "No."
Lin Xi: "Huh? Why not?"
Sanseiin Sumireko: "Because your hands are not honest."
Lin Xi was speechless.
Didn't you tacitly approve of it, that's why I put my arm around your waist?
Lin Xi: "But, you told Oga-kun yesterday that you were going to hang out with me and didn't have time to watch his baseball game. Aren't you afraid that he won't see me by your side and come to pester you?"
Sanseiin Sumireko: "It's okay, I'll go straight home after school, I won't give him a chance. The baseball game is in the afternoon, I don't think he has time to pester me."
Lin Xi: "Sumireko, you've changed, I miss that noon yesterday, that warm bench."
Seeing this, Sanseiin Sumireko couldn't help but cover her small mouth and giggle.
Sanseiin Sumireko: "Okay, let's not hang out today. Shiina-san looks very angry, are you sure you don't want to coax her?"
Lin Xi: "I was just snorted at and glared at a few times, I don't understand at all, where did I offend her?"
Sanseiin Sumireko: "Think about it yourself, you idiot, Mr. Lin."
Seeing this, Lin Xi helplessly put away his phone.
Alright.
He can't put his arm around Sanseiin's slender waist at noon today.
But he's not in a hurry anyway.
He secretly peeked at Shiina Mahiru's face next to him, but she didn't seem to want to talk.
At school, it's best not to be too close to her.
After all, she's super popular.
Getting too close will bring her trouble.
Hehe, anyway, when they get back to Sakurasou, she'll be next door to him.
And Sayu is on good terms with her.
His bento even has dishes she made.
Not panicking at all.
When it was lunchtime.
Lin Xi naturally wouldn't stay in the classroom to eat bento alone.
He found a quiet place, quickly finished his lunch, and bought a bottle of Max Coffee with coins from the vending machine.
Taking a sip instantly invigorated him.
After wandering around, he noticed an interesting scene near the flower bed.
He saw Shiina Mahiru standing in front of a red-faced boy.
The boy was wearing a soccer club uniform and seemed very nervous.
Unsurprisingly.
This was a confession scene.
As expected.
The boy bowed to Shiina Mahiru, extending his hand.
"I like you, Shiina-san! Please give me a chance to go out with you!"
"I'm sorry, senpai, I don't have any plans to date anyone right now."
Shiina Mahiru's voice was soft, but her tone was firm.
The rejected boy slumped his shoulders.
"Sorry for bothering you..."
A hint of anger flashed in the boy's eyes, but he turned and ran away without hesitation.
Shiina Mahiru looked helpless.
When her gaze fell on Lin Xi in the corner.
His fist hardened.
"You saw it?"
"Yeah, I saw it."
Lin Xi shrugged and walked over.
Shiina Mahiru's small face turned red, and she became nervous.
"You... what do you want to say?"
Lin Xi gave her a thumbs up.
"Good job! You have to harshly reject confessions from strange men like that!"
Shiina Mahiru pursed her lips and asked with interest:
"You seem very happy?"
"Of course, I'm a guy too, so I naturally don't want to see my beautiful deskmate get snatched up by another guy."
"Hmph, if you confessed, I would reject you too."
Shiina Mahiru said meaningfully.
"I know, so I will definitely not confess."
"You... hmph, pervert!"
She felt inexplicably annoyed, so she retorted and turned to leave.
So, she was indeed still angry about what happened last night.
But he didn't want that either.
Senior insisted on clinging to him.
Later, when she couldn't handle it anymore, she called Sayu over.
What could he do?
He could only take on two at once, defeat them, and show off his manliness.
However, Shiina-san, aren't you exposing something by calling me a pervert like that?
Thinking of this, he remembered something.
When he was taking on two last night, he noticed footsteps outside the door.
So...
Could it be that Shiina Mahiru was eavesdropping?
Lin Xi's expression became strange.
For the rest of the afternoon, Shiina Mahiru didn't talk to him.
She even ignored his invitation to go home together after school.
Lin Xi was helpless and had no choice but to block Sanshokuin Sumireko.
He couldn't reject both girls, could he?
Suddenly, a prompt came from his ear.
[Ding, triggered quest: Shiina Mahiru's Crisis.]
[The soccer club senior, filled with resentment for being rejected, decided that if he couldn't have her, he would ruin her. So, he found a group of five local thugs to teach the aloof beauty a lesson.]
[Please save your tenant Shiina Mahiru, resolve her crisis. The quest reward will be a random entry skill or item, with a fixed reward of 1 million yen.]
Seeing this, Lin Xi's expression changed.
That guy who failed to confess was too ungentlemanly, wasn't he? He sought revenge just because he was rejected?
Lin Xi didn't have time to hesitate. He immediately had the Game Life System provide arrow guidance and ran towards the destination.
