It's lunchtime.
Lin Xi still brings his lunch to the library.
It's quieter here.
And not many people come here.
When he arrives, Sannoshuuin Sumireko is already sitting in the librarian's seat.
She is holding a book, reading it attentively.
"Hi, Sumireko, good afternoon."
"Yes, good afternoon."
After exchanging greetings, Lin Xi sits down next to her.
He doesn't do anything, just appreciates her appearance.
Sannoshuuin Sumireko's lips curve into a smile.
"What's wrong? Why are you staring at me?"
"Just curious, Sumireko, aren't you binding your chest today?"
The area under the girl's school uniform is bulging.
It looks very substantial.
Sannoshuuin Sumireko stands up and gently sits on his lap.
"I knew you were coming, so I unbound them."
As she speaks, she puts her glasses on the table and unties her braids.
Her long, dark, and shiny hair, combined with a face even more beautiful than Mai Sakurajima's, makes Lin Xi's breathing quicken.
Sannoshuuin Sumireko wiggles a bit, her cheeks flushing red.
"You can't think of bad things, okay?"
Lin Xi's expression is awkward.
"It's not a matter of whether I want to or not, but Sumireko, your charm is too great, I can't resist it at all."
Sannoshuuin Sumireko endures the shyness, trying her best not to pay attention to the temperature below.
She faces away from him, acting spoiled: "I don't care, but you can't mess around. Today... I want Lin Xi to feed me my lunch."
"Are you a child? You still want me to feed you."
Lin Xi laughs and complains, but his body obediently opens the lunch box and starts feeding the girl.
Sannoshuuin Sumireko enjoys the food he puts in her mouth, her heart filled with sweetness.
While eating, Lin Xi tells her about the engagement event at the Yukinoshita family and joining Yukinoshita Yukino's club.
Sannoshuuin Sumireko's eyes immediately become resentful.
"You're engaged? What about us?"
"Don't worry, I won't give up on anyone."
Lin Xi hugs her slender waist, expressing his ambition.
"I plan to start accumulating funds now and then establish my own country."
Sannoshuuin Sumireko's eyes light up.
Establishing his own country and becoming king.
That would indeed mean he could marry as many as he wants.
"You're really greedy, aren't you? Is it okay to tell me this?"
"It's okay, I trust Sumireko."
"Since I have the courage to be greedy, I will naturally consider everything carefully."
"Sumireko, please stay by my side."
"You're already holding me in your arms, where else can I go? Silly~"
Unknowingly, it's afternoon.
Time for club activities.
Yukinoshita Yukino leaves the classroom early and goes to her club activity room.
The reason she wants to establish a club.
Besides wanting her own lounge, she also learned it from her older sister.
Her older sister not only established her own club in high school but also formed a band.
Having her own small circle.
Although Yukinoshita Yukino always says that she doesn't need friends.
But who wants to be alone all the time?
Yukinoshita Yukino is actually confused.
She named her club "Service Club."
The club's activities are to help those who want to work hard to become excellent improve themselves.
This way, perhaps it can change the situation where excellent people are instead excluded by those who are not motivated.
But the world is generally like this, and she can't change the world at all.
Facts have proven.
People like Hayama Hayato, who wear masks, can actually do better.
Since the club has been established, she might as well stay here in the afternoon.
What troubles Yukinoshita Yukino is not the club activities.
After all, someone has already made a request for her to go home and help take care of the cats.
However, after learning from her older sister yesterday that Lin Xi can command the cats, she suffered from insomnia.
While thinking, there is a knock on the door outside, and Lin Xi's voice.
"President Yukinoshita, are you inside?"
"Come in."
Lin Xi pushes the door open.
Under the strange gaze of the Second Miss Yukinoshita, he takes a cat out of his bag and hands it to her.
"Yukinoshita, it seems you are quite liked by cats. Look, my Xiaohua has run to school again. It seems like it's here to find you this time."
As soon as he finishes speaking, the cat breaks free from his embrace and goes over to rub against Yukinoshita Yukino's beautiful legs.
Although Yukinoshita Yukino knows that he deliberately commanded the cat to do this, she still can't help but pick up the cat, put it on her lap, and stroke its fur.
Her face shows an expression of enjoyment.
Then Lin Xi naturally says: "Let's go, President Yukinoshita. I still have several cats at home waiting for you to take care of them."
"You know, I'm clumsy and can't take care of several cats at all. I usually let them roam freely."
Yukinoshita Yukino knows that he deliberately wants to take her home so that he has a chance to spend time with her.
In fact, she thought about it all night yesterday about the matter of getting engaged to this person at the end of the month.
In the end, she came to the conclusion.
She cannot resist her mother.
Moreover, her older sister has agreed, so she is even more unable to refuse.
And Lin Xi, apart from being a playboy, is considered a very excellent person.
She doesn't dislike him.
So, let's try getting along and see..."
Yukinoshita carries the cat and returns to Sakura Manor with Lin Xi.
Under Lin Xi's command.
Several cats meow around her, melting her heart.
Knowing that this is a trap.
But the Second Miss Yukinoshita just can't refuse.
Ogihara Sayu is dressed like a virtuous wife and good mother, her hair braided and naturally falling to one side of her shoulder.
She looks very gentle.
She brings tea and pastries to the Second Miss Yukinoshita and sits beside her to accompany her.
Lin Xi originally wanted to be here too, but Yukinoshita Yukino glares at him, feeling that he will be uncomfortable here, so he simply goes to the third floor to study with Frieren.
He still has some questions to ask the elf about the magic dragon baptism.
Ogihara Sayu naturally gets along with Yukinoshita Yukino.
"Student Yukinoshita really likes cats."
Ogihara Sayu says with a smile.
"Yes, it would be strange to hate them."
The Second Miss smiles and continues to pet the cat.
As long as it's a cat, whether it's a tabby cat, a panda, or a raccoon, she likes them all.
After speaking, the Second Miss Yukinoshita's gaze falls on Ogihara Sayu.
"Miss Ogihara, are you also a resident here?"
"Yes. I am also Lin Xi's woman."
"Ah?"
Yukinoshita Yukino opens her mouth wide, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"You heard right. Lin Xi and I are in that kind of relationship."
"Then what about Mahiru?"
Yukinoshita Yukino frowns.
Although she already knew from her older sister that Lin Xi is a heartless bastard.
But now that Ogihara Sayu says it, she still feels uncomfortable in her heart.
Why is the person engaged to her such a playboy?
Faced with the Second Miss's question, Ogihara Sayu smiles and answers after carefully looking at her a few times.
"Because I think Lin Xi must have been moved by Student Yukinoshita's beauty."
"Also, I feel like we will be family in the future, so I'm giving you a heads-up in advance."
Yukinoshita Yukino doesn't know what to say anymore.
She remains silent for a long while before speaking.
"Why are you telling me this?"
