Chapter 4: He's sick, right?

Haichuan Advanced Education College is a famous school with a fine tradition. The course content is clear and easy to understand, and the atmosphere of the whole class is very calm, so you can concentrate on the class.

Although Shimizu Mi wanted to say this, there was actually a problem.

This question is very tricky and is bound to come up with the bell announcing the end of get out of class.

Oh, the lunch break bell has rung now, so I will appear in a while.

As Qing Shuijian expected, the troublesome problems that only happened during class breaks came with the ringing of the bell.

"Ah! That's the beautiful girl who only appears once in three thousand years! She's just as cute as she is online! I really want to exchange LINE with her!"

"I've never seen such a lovely girl! Let's go have lunch together!"

When this time comes, boys from other classes and even other grades will rush into the classroom to look for Amamiya Iori who is sitting in the front row.

Thanks to today's developed Internet, yesterday's incident sparked heated discussions across the Internet. Amamiya Iori's presence in the school is now equated with a national idol.

If there is a big star like that, it is not surprising that there are people who want to get close to her.

These people came to ask for Amamiya Iori's contact information or tried to get closer to her, making the classroom noisy.

Even though she politely rejected everyone, people still came one after another.

In contrast, there is no one next to the male protagonist of this work, Kondo Yuichi, the contrast is very obvious.

Because of his close relationship with Amamiya Iori, Kondo Yuichi is often disliked by others.

Although Amamiya Iori often denounces bullying behaviors, he is always isolated in the class because of Kondo Yuichi's dark personality problems.

From the beginning, Kondo Yuichi, who was sitting in the first row of the classroom, had his eyes on Amamiya Iori, who was surrounded by people. It was obvious that he wanted to invite her to lunch but couldn't muster up the courage.

In order to give him a happy ending in the second round, Shimizu Miyabi stepped forward against all odds and invited Amamiya Iori and Kondo Yuichi to dinner, and then prepared to leave in the middle of the meal pretending to be unwell.

Under the angry gazes of the crowd behind him, Shimizu took the two of them out of the classroom.

"Sorry, Yuichi, Amamiya, you two go first. I suddenly feel a little unwell and need to go to the health room."

"That's it, okay then."

Kondo Yuichi accepted the proposal without hesitation.

However, Shimizu Mi caught in an instant the inorganic look in Amamiya Iori's eyes when she looked at Kondo Yuichi.

The look in her eyes was different from the one she had before when she looked at him, and that look made Shimizu confused.

After parting with the two, Shimizu came alone to the vending machine in the lobby on the first floor of the teaching building. This was a new machine purchased by the school some time ago.

Just like in the morning, I bought a can of coffee called "Black Tea".

The coffee tasted unexpectedly good and he was amazed when he took the first sip this morning.

It’s a pity that this is a virtual world and this product cannot be brought back to reality.

Just when Shimizumi was feeling sorry for this——

"Shimizu-kun~"

He suddenly heard the soft voice of Amamiya Iori, which made him shudder.

"Shimizu-kun, didn't you go to the health room?"

Amemiya Iori stood on tiptoe and poked his head over Shimizu's left shoulder. He could even smell the faint fragrance coming from Amemiya.

"Yu...Amemiya, you are the one. Didn't you go to have lunch with Yuichi?" Shimizu was really shocked when he saw this.

"Yes~ I'm here to have lunch now~"

As if to hug Shimizumi's back, Amamiya Iori's plump body pressed against his back.

"Hey, Shimizu-kun, have we met somewhere before?"

Amemiya Iori's words made Shimizu's head feel like it was hit hard.

Did she notice something about what happened on the train yesterday?
Qing Shuijian asked tentatively: "It must be your illusion. We are classmates and friends. Isn't it normal to see each other often?" "That's right. It may be my illusion. I always feel that I have known Qing Shuijun for a long time."

The chest wrapped in the shirt pressed against his back, changing into different shapes with various movements. Although he didn't touch it with his hands, the softness was clearly conveyed.

Men are such pathetic creatures. After feeling this kind of warmth, even though they have no thoughts in that regard, their bodies suddenly become hot without their permission.

"Amamiya, would you like a drink? I'll treat you."

"Yes~ or no~"

Amemiya Iori spoke in a numbing voice and blew into his ear, causing Shimizu to get goose bumps all over his body.

Feeling that the atmosphere around him was starting to become strange, Shimizu Mitsuki, who was a little breathless, drank the black tea and coffee in one gulp, and cleverly distanced himself from Amamiya Iori by throwing away the garbage.

"Qi Shui-kun, are you deliberately avoiding me?"

Amamiya Iori's voice suddenly lost its rhythm, and a heavy sense of oppression was mixed in her emotionless voice.

This kind of her made Qingshuijian feel unfamiliar.

"No, why would I hide from you?"

Shimizu Mimoto thought he had concealed it well, but it seems he was still exposed.

Was she so observant before?
"Why, why are you hiding from me!?"

Amemiya Iori suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Shimizu Miki's shoulders tightly, and a sound louder than ever before echoed in the empty hall.

"No... No, why would I hide from you?"

Shimizu Ken was puzzled by Amemiya Iori's drastic emotional changes. He could feel Amemiya's body trembling slightly, and the trembling was transmitted through his arms.

"But didn't you deliberately want me to stay with Yuichi?"

Amamiya Iori showed a painful expression as if he was about to cry, his lips tightly pursed into a line, as if he was trying hard to suppress his emotions.

Qing Shuijian didn't expect that even this could be seen through.

Sure enough, his feeling was correct. The Amamiya Iori in front of him was a little different from the one in the first round.

"You misunderstood. I just feel uneasy about Yuichi being alone. If possible, I would like to stay with you, too."

Perhaps influenced by Amemiya Iori's emotions, Shimizu Mi spoke out his thoughts without restraint.

"Is it really?"

Amemiya Iori looked straight at Shimizu Mi, and Shimizu Mi nodded affirmatively to her serious expression.

"Well...I want to eat with Shimizu-kun every day from now on, is that okay?"

With blushing cheeks, Amamiya Iori avoided looking around, quietly waiting for Shimizumi's reply.

"Well, if you want."

"Great."

Seeing Amamiya Iori smiling, Shimizu finally breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he began to think about the underlying logic that made Amamiya Iori so enthusiastic about what happened this morning and now.

"Shimizu-kun, would you like to try the bento I made?"

Amamiya Iori returned to her old self, curling the ends of her soft hair with her fingers, glancing at Shimizu from time to time and then looking away, repeating this series of actions over and over again.

"You made a bento?"

"Well, I accidentally made too much this morning, so I wanted to invite you to eat with me."

"OK then……"

Qingshuijian reluctantly agreed. After all, it was better than staying here and being embarrassed.
