"I'm still thinking about it. I'll just sit here and read until I'm sure." Yukino drank her tea elegantly. "By the way, remember to bring a cup and a book next time. This is considered a club benefit."
...So this is the legendary rich high school club activities?
What's the difference between this and him finding any excuse to slack off while writing?
Natsume Rinno looked out the window at the sunny weather outside and felt that her peaceful high school life had been somewhat unexpected.
"Goodbye."
It was getting late, he had to go back.
"Yeah, remember to come to the club activities on time next week." Yukino stared at the book and waved goodbye to him perfunctorily.
“Can we stay here all day on the weekend?”
"Natsume-san talks a lot."
"Why aren't you calling me Yukinoshita now?" he asked curiously.
"Hmm." Yukino pursed her lips and looked up at Natsume: "Unless you admit that I am your elder sister, it will be too disadvantageous."
"Goodbye then."
Are you kidding? His identity as the older brother was recognized by everyone in the Yukinoshita family. How could he give it up so easily?
Natsume Rinno closed the door of the activity room and set off along the way she came. When passing the playground, the calls of youth were even louder than when she came.
Strange, why does this cry sound so familiar?
"Natsume!"
Wearing sportswear and holding a tennis racket, Totsuka Ayaka waved at him on the playground. After saying a few words to the senior student dressed as a manager beside her, he put down the racket and ran towards Natsume Rinno.
"Club training?"
The gaze of the senior schoolmate coming from the playground was particularly scorching, forcing him to look directly at Totsuka Ayaka.
"Yes, the tennis club will organize it when they are free. Why did you come to school?" Caijia leaned against the guardrail of the playground and drank water in big gulps.
"Club activities."
Chapter 16 My Target is My Sister
"You joined the club? Didn't you say you would try out the tennis club?"
Natsume Rinno has already understood the sports club deeply enough, and she definitely doesn't want to be the one running around on the playground during her three years of high school.
"Forget it, what club did you join?" Totsuka Ayaka's regret did not last long, and she curiously asked about the club that allowed him to join.
Even though we haven't known each other for very long, Natsume-san always looks lazy all day long, so I don't have much hope of getting him into the tennis club.
"Service Ministry."
Totsuka looked as if he had seen a ghost. He squatted by the guardrail and pinched his chin, thinking.
"Is this a club founded by Yukinoshita-san?"
"Would anyone else choose such a strange club name?" Natsume Rinno asked.
What kind of mentality did she have when she came up with this name? Even if it was called the Mutual Aid Department, it would be better than the current one.
boom!
The tennis ball hit the guardrail with a dull thud.
"Totsuka, help me throw the ball over here." Members of his club shouted at him on the playground.
As Totsuka picked up the ball and threw it back, he asked in confusion, "Why did you want to join the Service Club? No, why would Yukinoshita-san agree to let an outsider join?"
"That proves that I'm not an outsider." Natsume Rinno showed her white teeth, "From what you said, there are many people who also want to join that club."
"Well, there are a lot of people joining in the fun, but no one has been able to get the application form to join the club, and Yukinoshita-san sent them away by suspending the activities."
Sure enough, even though she has a weird temper, a tsundere personality, and the name of her club is extremely ugly, there will definitely be many people who want to be associated with her simply because of her cute appearance and the advantages of the Yukinoshita family.
Natsume Rinno gradually understood Haruno's concerns. After all, Yukino was only able to maintain superficial indifference, but her true psychology was still only a sixteen-year-old girl, and she would inevitably be deceived by appearances.
How could their brothers and sisters feel at ease about this?
"Is Natsume joining the club to pursue Yukinoshita-san?" Totsuka Ayaka winked at him.
"No." Natsume Rinno shook her head: "Actually, the one I want to pursue is Yukinoshita's sister."
"what?"
"I'm leaving now. See you next week."
Without explaining the reason to him, Natsume waved goodbye to Totsuka Ayaka.
After leaving school, he wandered the streets of Shinjuku and felt briefly confused.
Should I go home and continue working, or go shopping in this nice weather?
Soon, someone made a decision for him.
The number that was just removed from the blacklist yesterday came in handy today. No matter how reluctant she was, Natsume Rinno still answered the call.
"Rinno, you're a little slow in answering the phone!" It sounded very lively over there, as if they were having a dinner party.
"Is something wrong?"
"We are boyfriend and girlfriend now, don't be so cold, speak in a more cheerful voice."
When the word "boyfriend" was mentioned, he could hear the woman's cheering even through the phone.
"Yang No, you actually have a boyfriend!"
"Who is so lucky?"
"Bring him here quickly so we can have a look."
Yang No slapped away her friend's claws that were trying to snatch her phone, and fled from the izakaya to the corridor, finally finding a relatively quiet place.
"Brother-san, dress up nicely and appear in front of your sister!"
After leaving an address, Yang Noi hung up the phone.
Natsume Rinno stood there with a frown on her face, having a strange feeling as if she was being shown off in front of her friends like a new toy.
……
"Yang Nai, is your boyfriend handsome?" As soon as she returned to the room, someone squeezed up to her and asked teasingly.
Thinking back to the boy's appearance after not seeing him for a few years, he is no longer the young and immature man he used to be, and it seems that he no longer enjoys bullying kids, but he looks more handsome now, and his independent life has brought him a mature charm.
"It's just so-so." Yang Nai said reservedly.
"I don't believe it. How could the eldest daughter of the Yukinoshita family find an ordinary boyfriend?"
Amidst laughter, they continued their party, and at the same time looked forward to the boyfriend of Yukinoshita Haruno, who was very popular in the circle. If he was not good enough, they would have new things to talk about in the next few months.
Yukinoshita Haruno held the wine glass and smiled without saying anything. As long as her younger brother didn't deliberately embarrass her, nothing would go wrong. If he dared to do so, it would give her a reason to deal with the other party.
after an hour.
Even if these rich kids had nothing to do, they would wait until they became impatient. If it weren't for Yang Nai's sake, some of them would have left impatiently long ago.
"Maybe he doesn't dare to come?" someone speculated in a low voice.
"It seems that you, Yukinoshita, don't have much authority in front of your lover. If my boyfriend dared to be late like this, I would have taught him a lesson long ago." Someone also made malicious remarks to her.
For these rich ladies, it seemed to be a very happy thing to see Yukinoshita Haruno, who usually had everything under control, being humiliated.
If the second daughter of the Yukinoshita family is an unpopular existence in the circle, then the eldest daughter is the one that others envy and hate, but cannot find any handle on.
Yang No acted very calmly and raised her glass elegantly: "I guess I wanted to make a good impression on my friends, so I wasted a lot of time preparing."
An unknown laugh was heard in the room, but those who had been planning to leave sat down again, wanting to watch the next show.
If her boyfriend can't achieve the effect she wants, it would be better to make a joke of it.
"Sorry, I'm late."
The tightly closed door of the izakaya was pushed open a crack, and a confident voice was heard outside.
Someone who had been curious about Haruno's boyfriend for a long time poked his head out to look at the door, intending to use it to mock Haruno if there was any slight flaw.
However, after seeing the face of the person who came, the words that were about to come out of their mouths were blocked. They avoided his gaze, but could not help but look at the beautiful boy in front of the door.
He had a tall figure and handsome looks. The high-end suit he wore seemed so close to his body. He exuded a confident and vigorous energy, which was fundamentally different from the pretty boys they usually met.
Natsume Rinno smiled casually, walked over to Yangno who was playing with the wine glass, and grabbed her hand.
"I went to change my clothes, so I came a little late."
"is acceptable."
Yukinoshita Haruno spoke calmly, her eyes sweeping over the group of infatuated women around her, almost wanting to laugh out loud.
However, when she saw Rinno beside her, even though she was already used to seeing her, her heartbeat quickened and her face unconsciously flushed slightly.
It was just a change of clothes, how come even she couldn't resist it?
Chapter 17: Miss Yukinoshita is so bold!
"let's go."
After enjoying the envious looks from others, Yang No suddenly felt bored and grabbed Natsume Rinno's hand and started laughing.
"Leaving right after arriving?"
"What? Do you still want to stay here and be watched by them?" He applied a little force on his hands to remind Natsume Rinno that she was not a generous person.
It was clearly her who asked me to dress up nicely, but I ended up wasting more than an hour and in the end I just showed my face in front of her friends?
Natsume was very angry, so he just sat there motionless even though the strength in her hands gradually increased.
Someone noticed something was wrong and his eyes immediately lit up.
"Ms. Yukinoshita, are you leaving without introducing your boyfriend?"
What a bullshit introduction!
Yukinoshita Haruno cursed in her heart. The hungry eyes of these nymphomaniac girls almost told her clearly that they were interested in Rinno.
