Although she felt that her stance was not sufficient, it did not affect Natsume Rin's discomfort at all about the possibility that they would bring dance partners to the dance.
The two girls looked at each other and laughed. They held their slender hands together and looked at Natsume Rin and said in unison: "Guess!"
Before Natsume Rin could guess, Yukino revealed the answer: "Don't you think I'll be more handsome than you if I put on men's clothes? So I'll be Shiina-san's dance partner."
It turned out to be the case.
He felt relieved in his heart, but on the surface he was still arguing with Yukino about who was the most handsome.
There was definitely no answer to such a stupid argument, and after provoking her into saying something stupid like wearing men's clothes for him to see, Natsume Rin left the activity room in a triumphant manner.
"Do you really want to wear it?" Shiina Mahiru said while drinking tea.
"……if not?"
Yukino felt a little regretful after making such harsh words. It was her first time wearing men's clothes, and she was forced to change into them because Shiina was obviously not suitable for neutral clothing.
"amazing!"
Shiina Mahiru, who looked sad, clapped her hands, and immediately changed her expression, pulling Yukino enthusiastically.
"I've wanted to dress up Xiaoxue for a long time. This time I finally found the opportunity. How about this weekend? Come to my house, and I will definitely help you dress up to be more handsome than that guy Natsume!"
"Uh……"
Looking at Shiina Mahiru's fanatical expression, Yukino swallowed and couldn't say no, so she reluctantly nodded in agreement.
While Natsume Rin and Yukino were worried, time quickly came to the weekend. Shiina Mahiru directly asked her family to drive to pick her up, and as a contrast, Natsume Rin was also lucky enough to appear in the back seat.
"Why are you here?"
When Yukino, wearing a windbreaker and carrying a bag on her shoulder, carefully slipped down from upstairs, she saw Natsume Rin's expression as if she had seen a ghost.
"Busan, you seem to have forgotten something." Natsume Rin reminded him, "I am your comparison object. If I am not as handsome as me, you lose."
It was only then that she noticed Natsume Rin's flashy outfit. She didn't know where he got the suit from, but it looked really handsome on him.
This is the high-end suit bought with Yang No's money. When Natsume Rin thought of having a so-called handsome competition, she immediately thought of it.
"Tsk, I will never lose to you."
Tsutsumi Shiina Mahiru patted his chest and made the promise, then pulled Xiaoxue in and sat between the two of them.
The place they were going to was naturally her family's villa in the port area. No one knew where Shiina Chaoyang went during the holidays, and such a big house became a playground for the three of them.
She had asked her family to prepare men's clothes in advance, so there was no shortage of targets to choose from. The girls had to change their clothes, so Natsume Rin had to sit downstairs, which happened to be the seat where Shiina Chaoyang had originally sat.
The class monitor asked him to accompany her to go shopping for clothes on the chat app, but Natsume Rin decisively refused.
Damn, he is so enthusiastic without even finding a dance partner. He is simply wasting his time on purpose.
The senior student kept sending photos of various styles of formal wear. He didn't want to reply, but the message that he had read forced him to comment on each piece of clothing.
"good."
"This one's not bad either."
"This is fine too."
……
Phew, he is such a qualified man.
As expected, Kasumigaoka Utaha stopped sending him pictures and instead sent him some fist emoticons. Natsume Rin took a look and whistled, looking towards the direction of the stairs, secretly looking forward to seeing Yukino in men's clothing.
"Tick, tick, Mr. Yukinoshita appears!"
Shiina Mahiru ran out first. Under her grand welcome, Yukinoshita Yukino was not quite used to her appearance. She pulled the tie in front of her with her hands, and after noticing Natsume Rin's dull look, she puffed out her chest with pride.
It seems that the effect is quite good.
Chapter 203: Neither Smart nor Cute
"I have good taste, right?" Shiina Mahiru proudly pushed her out and introduced Yukino's outfit in detail.
"Men's suit, slim-fit trousers. Since I asked Xiaoxue for her size, it looks like there won't be any problems at all."
"Taking Xiaoxue's figure into consideration, it saved a lot of trouble when custom-making the suit."
She stood behind Yukino in a playful manner, pointing out the key points of her figure with her hands.
It seems that having skinny breasts is actually a good thing when doing COS.
Her behavior soon brought about its own consequences. After being severely lectured by Yukino, she covered her head and calmed down.
"Really? Don't underestimate her. Maybe there will be room for development in the future."
On the surface, he was on the minister's side, but the harm his tone caused to her was no less than the truth of Shiina Mahiru, so he quickly stood up with Shiina.
Yukinoshita Yukino glanced at the two guys with sharp eyes, with her hands on her chest, wearing a men's suit. If she could style her hair, she would really look like a very handsome man.
"You two, have you forgotten your business? How about this outfit? It shouldn't be a problem if you go to the ball."
"Of course not, and Xiaoxue will definitely be the focus of the whole audience!"
Yukino curled her lips slightly. She was not interested in the so-called focus. She only attended the dance because of Shiina Mahiru's pestering. It had absolutely nothing to do with Natsume Rin.
"Although he is indeed good, he is not as handsome as me no matter how you look at him."
Natsume Rin was still very confident and felt that even if the minister looked stunning in a suit, he would still not be as good as him.
"Well, because Xiaoxue and you are totally different in style." Shiina Mahiru commented seriously: "Natsume is a very traditional handsome boy, while Xiaoxue is more like a beautiful boy, if I had to choose."
Under their curious gazes, Shiina Mahiru smiled cunningly.
"I would definitely choose Xiaoxue! There won't be many opportunities for her to dress up like this."
"So it wins because of its rarity." Natsume Rin said regretfully.
"Isn't this a normal victory? Don't make excuses for your failure." Yukino looked at him proudly. After expanding the scope of the game, the number of victories obviously increased.
But there are neither rewards nor punishments in this competition.
Even the competition itself was just an event that Shiina Mahiru planned to dress up Yukino and Natsume Rin wanted to see it in advance.
"Failure? What a cocky answer. We'll know who the real champion is on the day of the ball."
They were planning to figure out who would win later, while the host Shiina Mahiru had already started preparing lunch. Since Shiina Chaoyang was not at home, she had the final say here today, and the maids in the kitchen were busying themselves around under her command.
Yukinoshita Yukino wanted to go in and help, but ended up sitting back in her seat reluctantly because she couldn't do anything.
"Then there are guests who can help with the cooking. Just wait quietly."
Natsume Rin stared at the TV and comforted her skillfully.
"You." Yukino quickly found the answer for him, "When Shiina-san went to your house, she was also a guest, right? I saw that you didn't feel guilty at all when you asked her to cook."
"Ahem." Natsume Rin, who was lying there peacefully like an old man, felt uncomfortable. He wanted to explain himself, but when he thought about it carefully, he couldn't find any excuse unless he admitted that he was a good-for-nothing who was just trying to make a living.
"Can't you find a suitable excuse? Just admit it generously. You are taking advantage of Shiina-san's sympathy and treating her as free labor." She leaned close to Natsume Rin and whispered.
"…It looks fine, but I have to doubt it when you say it."
"What are you two whispering about?"
After realizing that someone was about to cause trouble, Shiina Mahiru handed over the work in her hands to the maid, walked back with a smile on her face, and stopped someone's little trick in time.
Yukino smiled gently and said it was nothing. Under the table, her hand had already been placed on Natsume Rin's thigh and began to rotate it rhythmically.
Damn!
Natsume Rin was furious. Did she still treat him as a soft persimmon to be bullied?
He immediately fought back, and then Yukino's face turned red and she glared at him fiercely. When she found that it was ineffective, she pursed her lips and gave in.
There was no talk between them, and all communication was done through actions under the table. After Yukino took back the hand that was pinching her, Natsume Rin slowly took back her own hand.
Because she was wearing long pants, there was no unexpected skin contact, but he still added some strength and skills when he did it, and Yukino could hardly bear the itchy feeling and laughed.
"You two?"
Seeing their faces turning red for no apparent reason, Shiina Mahiru immediately became suspicious. She unladylikely moved her gaze under the table and was surprised to find that the scene she had imagined did not appear.
"What are you thinking about?"
Natsume Rin was thankful that she stopped her hand quickly, otherwise there would definitely be a quarrel. She immediately said righteously, "Is lunch ready? I'm hungry."
"It should be ready now. I'll go take a look."
Yukino, who was also feeling guilty and not thick-skinned enough to take the initiative like him, patted her chest and let out a long sigh. Seeing Natsume Rin's smug expression, she gritted her teeth in hatred. If she hadn't been concerned about Shiina Mahiru, she might have really bitten her.
"Why do you like to use force so much? Minister, you are a lady." Natsume Rin challenged her.
"If I act like a lady in front of you, I'll be so pissed off." Yukino didn't fall for it at all. She acted naturally cool in front of him, but it would only last for a few minutes in front of Natsume Rin.
And if you continue to be indifferent to him, you will definitely be pissed off.
"Don't be so prejudiced." Natsume Rin calmed down, "Actually, I still like the Minister very much."
...Are you going to confess?
Yukinoshita Yukino looked at him warily, thinking that this guy would definitely not be that simple. Since Shiina Mahiru hadn't come yet, she was not in a hurry to expose him.
"Tell me carefully."
With her chin supported by her hands, Xueno looked at him with a smile.
"She's smart, cute, and considerate. She'll listen to other people's advice when she's in trouble. She's also great at sports and seems to have a gentle personality. I think any boy would like her."
Facing her annoyed expression, Natsume Rin spoke extremely seriously.
As for the content, except for the first one, even with Yukino's narcissism, she feels that the others are not suitable for her.
"It seems that in your eyes, I am neither smart nor cute!"
"I didn't say that, Shiina-san, you have to testify for me."
Shiina Mahiru smiled lovingly and put the plate in her hand on the dining table.
Chapter 204 You are suitable for living off others after graduation
The temperature in Tokyo was getting lower and lower, so Natsume Rin deliberately tied a scarf around her collar when she went out.
In addition to the warmth-keeping function, Natsume Rin also feels that her temperament will be different after wearing the scarf. If she wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, she will probably be more in line with the word "elegant".
