Originally, Kasukabe Yui also intended to join the club, but she was firmly rejected by Yukinoshita Yukino. The reason was that the club already had three members, and it was a small club that didn't need many people.
In the end, Kasukabe Yui could only be shut out. Even when she looked at Zhao Hao with a pitiful expression, begging him to say something, Xue no Xue no stopped her before he could open his mouth.
"These cookies taste very good. They are fragrant, crispy, and the sweetness is just right. No wonder they are so popular."
Zhao Hao felt a bit hungry, after all, he had gone to fight against the strange creatures in the afternoon. To be safe, he had even released a Tiered Storm. It consumed quite a lot of energy.
Seeing Zhao Hao eating a lot, Gu Yan Ye said, "Zhao Hao-senpai, if you like them, I can bring you some more next time."
Zhao Hao smiled and refused, "No need to buy them. I just happened to be hungry, so I ate a bit more."
Seeing Zhao Hao finish his box of cookies, Gu Yan Ye quickly handed him her own box.
Yukinoshita Yukino saw Zhao Hao reaching for Gu Yan Ye's box of cookies. She reached out first and placed her own cookies in Zhao Hao's hands, then said, "Did the angel-like underclassman not feed you enough with her bento at noon?"
The fact that Shiina Mayuri brought Zhao Hao a bento at noon was known to almost everyone in the school. After all, both of them were famous people and received a lot of attention.
Zhao Hao looked at the cookies Yukinoshita Yukino gave him, opened them and said, "I was full. They were very delicious, even better than the ones you made last time. But that was at noon, and now it's afternoon. It's normal to be hungry."
Gu Yan Ye glanced at the cookies in Zhao Hao's hand and silently retracted her own cookies.
"It is normal, but I'm curious, when did you get to know Shiina Mayuri?"
Yukinoshita Yukino didn't dwell on the bento, but was curious about when Zhao Hao met Shiina Mayuri.
This guy was really popular with women. And they were all top-notch beauties: Shiina Mayuri, Kasukabe Yui, Gu Yan Ye, and also her. It was said that he almost had a rumor going around the school with the child star, Sakurajima Mai.
"Just a few days ago. I helped her with something, and that's how we met."
"I see. But you said the ones I made are not as good as hers, right? Last time, I just used a little bit of your simple seasonings. If I had more seasonings, I could definitely make them even better."
Yukinoshita Yukino said unconvinced. In Zhao Hao's eyes, she was inferior to a first-year underclassman?
No way, she was a perfectionist. How could she be surpassed by a junior?
Seeing the two of them talking, Gu Yan Ye felt a little out of place. So, she found a topic and said, "Senpai and Senpai, I heard that the school will hold a welcome party next week. It's a tradition of this school. What are the contents of this event?"
Yukinoshita Yukino shook her head, "Welcome party? I don't know. I was in a foreign country before the second year of high school. I only transferred to this school in my second year. My understanding of this school is the same as yours, so I'm also a newcomer."
Gu Yan Ye said in surprise, "I didn't expect that Senpai was studying abroad before the second year of high school."
Only Zhao Hao was a "veteran" here. He said, "I don't know the details either, because I've never participated before. But I heard that this welcome party is similar to school festivals and other campus activities. There's not much difference. It's mainly organized by the second and third-year classes, and they perform some shows."
Gu Yan Ye looked at Zhao Hao and nodded, "So that's how it is."
Yukinoshita Yukino didn't say anything, but she noticed that Gu Yan Ye's gaze would often fall on Zhao Hao, and the look in her eyes seemed a bit unusual.
"Could it be..."
Yukinoshita Yukino had a guess in her heart. For this kind of introverted and pure girl, Zhao Hao was not only handsome, his face perfectly matched the Asian aesthetic, and he helped her get rid of bullying from her classmates, making Gu Yan Ye develop feelings for him, and she liked him.
In this regard, Yukinoshita Yukino felt that she was letting a wolf into the house. What was the main reason why she firmly refused Kasukabe Yui's entry into the club yesterday? It was also this situation.
But now, she had defended against Kasukabe, but she didn't expect Gu Yan Ye.
However, Yukinoshita Yukino could clearly see her own heart. She liked Zhao Hao, and it was a hazy feeling she had since she was a child. After gradually growing up, she realized that this feeling was called liking.
She just didn't expect that Zhao Hao knew so many beautiful girls. The law of this country didn't prohibit people from only marrying one person. For population growth, as long as you are capable, it's fine to have a few more wives, and even more children. Moreover, the leaders of this country, which one of them didn't have three wives and four concubines with children in droves?
But people are selfish. No one wants to share their love with others.
After the club activities, the three of them left the school. Yukinoshita Yukino and Zhao Hao were neighbors, but they didn't expect Gu Yan Ye to be on the same train going back in the same direction.
Zhao Hao said, "Gu-shishou, you're taking the same train as us."
The three of them were sitting in connected seats, Zhao Hao in the middle, and the other two on either side of him.
"Yeah, I never noticed before."
Gu Yan Ye was also surprised. She hadn't expected them to be on the same train. Maybe it was because she had been reading on the train all the time and never looked around. Plus, there were a lot of students on the train, including students from our school, so she didn't pay attention.
Yukinoshita Yukino noticed a person. She said, "Gu-shishou, the boy at the entrance of the train seems to be looking at you often. The train has only traveled a few stations, and he has already looked at you several times. He's also wearing our school uniform."
Gu Yan Ye looked over. There was indeed a boy standing at the entrance, also a first-year, wearing headphones and holding a mobile phone.
Gu Yan Ye nodded and said, "It's him. I don't know him either. I noticed him before when I was going to school. He would look at me from time to time, so I noticed him."
Yukinoshita Yukino understood, "It seems he's secretly in love with you."
It's normal. Gu Yan Ye is very beautiful, her chest is more prominent than most adult women, and she's quiet and introverted. It's only natural for someone who secretly has feelings for her to look at her. When she's in class or walking on the road, she often feels this kind of gaze.
"Secretly in love with me?"
Gu Yan Ye was stunned. She then looked at Zhao Hao. She couldn't help but look at Zhao Hao many times during the club activities.
Was she secretly in love too?
Gu Yan Ye was thinking this when she saw Yukinoshita Yukino stand up and walk towards the boy.
"Hey, I just saw you point your phone at my friend. Did you take her picture secretly?"
Yukinoshita Yukino just stood in front of Ito Makoto, but she gave off a sense of pressure like a cold queen, making Ito Makoto feel a surge of panic in his heart.
