Chapter 204: Yagi Miyuki’s Difficult and Short Life

“Yagi-kun, you mean…”

Ninomiya-senpai smiled unchanged, her eyes slightly moving as she asked, “You want me to be friends with Narase-san?”

“Uh… yes.”

Yagi Miyuki nodded somewhat guiltily. He couldn’t shake the feeling that Ninomiya-senpai saw right through his plan.

“Hmm…”

Ninomiya-senpai stared meaningfully at Yagi Miyuki for a moment, then smiled brightly, “Okay, I understand.”

“Cough cough!”

Yagi Miyuki coughed twice to hide his guilty conscience and changed the subject, “You just said something about needing help in the kitchen, right? Let’s go then.”

After a busy session, a lavish Chinese meal prepared by Michako, consisting of six dishes and a soup, was served at the table, around which five girls and one boy sat “harmoniously.”

“I mean…”

Yagi Miyuki, sitting at the head of the table, struggled with his chopsticks and finally managed to say, “Can you guys change out of your swimsuits first? Cooking in swimsuits is one thing, but why wear them to the table?!”

Yagi Miyuki touched his stomach.

He learned that the phrase “a feast for the eyes” wasn’t an exaggeration; the view indeed gave him a sense of fullness… in various ways.

“Eh?”

Michako, sitting beside Yagi Miyuki, blinked her eyes in surprise, resting her evilness on the table, seemingly astonished, “Brother should find this quite appetizing, right?”

“Michako-chan thinks so too? I agree,” said Ninomiya-senpai, sitting on Yagi Miyuki’s right, straightening her posture.

“Not at all!”

Yagi Miyuki felt ashamed and dizzy.

“Hmph! Shameless,” retorted the blonde loli sitting across from Yagi Miyuki, quite far away.

“Um…”

Realizing she couldn’t gain the upper hand in this situation, Hoshino Seiya also felt uncomfortable and forced a smile, “What Yagi-kun said makes sense. Let’s change back after eating to avoid catching a cold.”

“Let’s eat first then,” Ninomiya-senpai said with a smile, tasting a piece of spicy chicken, and showed no common aversion to spiciness like most Japanese people.

“Michako’s cooking is really good, even better than what I’ve had at some Chinese restaurants,” she added.

“Be grateful,” Michako said proudly, “I learned to cook for my brother. I’m not interested in cooking for anyone else.”

“Really?” Ninomiya-senpai’s expression remained unchanged, but she casually dropped a bombshell, “Yagi-kun shared Michako-chan’s lunch box with me when we ate together at school.”

“Brother…”

Seeing Michako’s face sink, Yagi Miyuki, well-trained in the art of quick thinking, said calmly, “After all, Michako is a sister I’m proud of, and I wanted to boast about her to senpai.”

“Really?”

Michako’s face brightened up immediately.

“Of course.”

Yagi Miyuki nodded. Whether it was true or not, only he knew.

Ninomiya-senpai, observing how easily Yagi Miyuki smoothed over the situation with his sister and averted a potential conflict, picked up another piece of spicy chicken, which looked dangerously hot, and placed it in Narase Mero’s bowl, who was sitting quietly on his right side, eating her meal obediently.

“Eh?”

Narase Mero tilted her head in confusion, her bright purple eyes unchanging, and asked, “Ninomiya-senpai?”

“Try it, Narase-san, it’s really good,” Ninomiya-senpai said with a “gentle” smile. If it weren’t for the spicy chicken she put in the mermaid girl’s bowl, Yagi Miyuki wouldn’t have noticed her malicious intent.

“Thank you…”

“Don’t eat it!”

Watching Narase Mero, who seemed to have returned to normal and thanked with a smile before putting the dark red chicken piece in her mouth, Yagi Miyuki covered his face in dismay.

In Japan, not many can handle spicy food. A little bit of spice in Chinese cuisine is too much for them…

“Ah…”

Sure enough.

In just a moment, Narase Mero’s eyes were teary, her face turned red, looking pitifully at Yagi Miyuki, “Spicy!”

Seeing Narase Mero’s expression, as if she had been bullied and was seeking help, Yagi Miyuki quickly stood up and poured her a glass of water.

“Ah… I’m so sorry, I didn’t know you couldn’t eat spicy food, Narase-san.”

Yagi Miyuki turned his head, looking at Ninomiya-senpai, who apologized with her mouth but her eyes held little remorse, and his lips twitched.

He got it wrong.

Yagi Miyuki exchanged glances with her, suddenly understanding and feeling sad about his naive plans just now.

Ninomiya-senpai did it on purpose, no doubt about it. Probably as a response to his request for her to befriend Narase Mero.

As expected, Ninomiya-senpai must have seen through his intentions and was telling him… it’s impossible…

Yagi Miyuki’s lips twitched. His plan for peaceful coexistence had failed before it even started.

“Are you feeling better, Narase-san?”

Ninomiya-senpai, after giving Yagi Miyuki a meaningful glance, stood up and served a bowl of winter melon soup to Narase Mero, this time more sincerely, “Sorry about that, have some soup.”

“Okay.”

Seeing Narase Mero calm down, Yagi Miyuki shook his head, returned to his seat, and listlessly played with his food.

It seemed that the plan for reconciliation was unfeasible. He had been too optimistic. The fact that they were sitting here quietly eating was probably due to the old saying, ‘A guest is beholden to their host.’ Otherwise, they might have already started a verbal battle.

“Alright.”

The lunch ended in silence. Yagi Miyuki stood up, saying, “I’ll wash the dishes, you guys go change out of your swimsuits.”

“I’ll do it, brother,” Michako said instinctively.

“You’ve already worked hard preparing the lunch, leave it to me.”

To prevent the others from getting involved, Yagi Miyuki hurriedly collected the dishes and quickly headed to the kitchen.

“Life is short and bitter.”

Yagi Miyuki washed the dishes with a heart full of sorrow.

The phrase ‘life is short and bitter’ now had a literal meaning for him. It was both hard and fleeting. Even if he survived today, could he make it through the year?

Yagi Miyuki, aged sixteen.

Clang—!

Suddenly, Yagi Miyuki stiffened, the dish he was washing falling into the sink. He slowly bowed his head as a pair of slender, pale arms wrapped around his waist from behind…

“Ninomiya-senpai?”

Feeling the body hugging him from behind, Yagi Miyuki used his secret skill of recognizing people by their upper body, which was frighteningly accurate, instantly identifying the attacker.
