Chapter 28
So Many Coincidences, Is Everything Really Alright?

“Uh, Teacher Hiratsuka, am I not needed anymore?”

Lin Xi’s words broke the silence.

“恩, you can go back now.”

“Okay.”

Lin Xi nodded and then looked at the cat in Yukinoshita Yukino’s arms.

“Uh, Yukinoshita-san, my cats…”

“How are you going to take them back?” Yukinoshita Yukino asked seriously.

“I’ll use my backpack, I guess that’s the only way.”

“Your backpack can fit three cats?”

“I can squeeze them in.”

“No, I’ll go with you!”

“Huh? You want to go to my place?”

“What, not welcome?”

“No, I’m very welcome.”

Thus, Yukinoshita Yukino decided on her next course of action.

Hiratsuka Shizuka looked at the two of them, a perfect match, and thought about her own string of failed blind dates, making her heart sour.

She waved her hand dismissively, saying, “Yukinoshita, Lin Xi, you two go back first.”

“By the way, Yukinoshita, I will consider your club application. Excellent people are indeed qualified to establish a club.”

“恩, thank you, Teacher Hiratsuka.”

Yukinoshita Yukino thanked her and turned to Lin Xi.

“Let’s go.”

“Oh.”

“See you later, Teacher Hiratsuka.”

Hiratsuka Shizuka waved her hand dismissively.

………

On the way, Lin Xi and Yukinoshita Yukino were both silent.

The atmosphere was a bit heavy for a while.

After a long time, Yukinoshita Yukino stopped and looked at him seriously.

“Lin-san, do you have some secret technique?”

“Huh? What secret technique?”

He was completely clueless.

Yukinoshita Yukino’s face turned slightly red, she was a little embarrassed.

“That, it’s just a technique to make cats like you.”

“Eh, there’s no such technique, I don’t even know why cats like to cling to me.”

Actually, he did know.

But he wouldn’t mention things like catnip.

If he did, how could he play around with Yukinoshita-sama?

“What a man to be envied.”

Yukinoshita Yukino snorted coldly, turning her head away with a grimace.

Lin Xi held back a laugh and said, “I can tell, Yukinoshita-san, you really like cats.”

Yukinoshita Yukino didn’t deny it.

Lin Xi stopped in his tracks.

“But, you really want to go to my place?”

Yukinoshita Yukino nodded lightly, and at the same time said seriously, “Don’t misunderstand, I just don’t trust you to take three cats back alone.”

“I know.”

Lin Xi waved his hand and continued the conversation naturally.

“May I ask, was Yukinoshita-san planning to apply to establish a club?”

“Is there a problem?” Yukinoshita Yukino asked coldly.

She didn’t want to be too enthusiastic or gentle with guys.

If someone misunderstood, it would become unnecessary trouble.

“Of course not, I just think, with someone as beautiful as Yukinoshita, the club will be very popular.”

“Why do you think so? Does being beautiful mean you will be popular?”

She couldn’t help but ask back.

“Generally, it’s like that, isn’t it? Who doesn’t like beautiful girls?”

Lin Xi said to himself.

Yukinoshita Yukino sighed.

“Let’s go back, send the cats home, and I’ll leave.”

She clearly didn’t want to say much more.

Lin Xi shrugged indifferently and didn’t continue.

After all, they had just met, and he had given a good impression, that was enough.

When they arrived at Sakura Manor, Yukinoshita Yukino looked at the surrounding cherry blossom trees and the beautiful scene of the falling petals, she couldn’t help but show a surprised expression.

“You live here?”

“Yeah, this is Sakura Manor, next to a high school called Suimei Art University Affiliated High School.”

“What’s wrong, isn’t it good here?”

“No, I’m just amazed, it’s so beautiful.”

Compared to the cold, hard high-rise building where she lived alone, this place seemed more heartwarming.

After setting down the cats, she looked at the cherry blossom petals fluttering in the wind and began to daydream.

“Do you want to come in and sit down? You’re here anyway.”

Lin Xi couldn’t help but invite her.

“恩, then I will.”

Yukinoshita Yukino mainly wanted to see how the cats lived.

Arriving on the first floor.

Sengoku Chihiro saw Lin Xi bring back another super cute girl, and couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

“Lin-kun, is this your girlfriend? You’re not going to chase after my Mai-chan anymore?”

Lin Xi helplessly spread his hands.

“This is Yukinoshita-san, we’re just classmates.”

“Is anyone here?”

椎名真昼, wearing an apron, came out. She was startled when she saw the two of them.

“You’re Yukinoshita-san, right!”

“You’re Shiina-san?”

Yukinoshita Yukino was also shocked.

She didn’t expect to see Shiina Mai, who ranked first in the same grade, here.

After a while.

Yukinoshita Yukino and Shiina Mai sat face to face.

After hearing that Yukinoshita Yukino came because of the cats, she showed a surprised expression.

“Lin-kun didn’t bring the cats to school in the morning, so did they really run to school by themselves? That’s so unbelievable.”

Yukinoshita Yukino was envious.

She also wanted to have that kind of physique that was loved by cats.

“That, may I ask, Shiina-san, are you dating Lin-kun?”

“Ah? No.”

Shiina Mai quickly shook her head.

“Lin-kun is the owner of Sakura Manor. My cousin is the administrator, Sengoku Chihiro-san, and through her introduction, I came to live in Sakura Manor.”

“Lin-kun and I just coincidentally live in Sakura Manor. Coincidentally, we’re in the same class, are seatmates, serve as class representatives together, and coincidentally go to school together.”

Yukinoshita Yukino was stunned.

This was no longer just a coincidence, right?

It was simply a destined fate.

However…

“Lin-kun is actually the owner of Sakura Manor?”

“Yeah, not only that, he’s also the second-ranked top student in the grade.”

The two girls chatted about Lin Xi’s topics, and so on.

Perhaps because they were both super beautiful girls and top students, they could also chat together.

More importantly, Shiina Mai was good at chatting.

Therefore, Yukinoshita Yukino was completely drawn into her rhythm, and the atmosphere became increasingly better.

From this perspective, Shiina Mai was more suitable to be a girlfriend.

By the end of the conversation, Yukinoshita Yukino was somewhat reluctant to leave.

Unlike her sister, who she subconsciously guarded against her closeness, Shiina Mai treated her as an ordinary classmate and didn’t target her.

Therefore, Yukinoshita Yukino also developed a fondness for Shiina Mai.

This was probably the charisma of an angel.

Even though his family situation wasn’t good and his parents didn’t like her, the angel never gave up on improving himself.

Perhaps she expected that one day her parents would see this well-behaved version of her, so she could go home and receive some warmth from home.

In the end, Yukinoshita Yukino still had to leave.

Lin Xi followed her.

“I’ll walk you.”

Before she could speak, he continued, “Don’t reject me yet. There are delinquents around here, you know the librarian in our school, Totsuka High?”

“She lives nearby, last time she was surrounded by some delinquents, and I rescued her.”

With these words, Yukinoshita Yukino couldn’t refuse his kindness anymore.

“Thank you.”

“You’re welcome, after all, you even came here for my cats, I naturally have to send you to the car safely.”

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at his gentle smile, pursed her lips, and finally didn’t say anything more.

In short, she had a good impression of Lin Xi.
