Damn it, didn't I say I was going to watch anime? Why did I suddenly show up again?
Ignoring her senior's funny behavior, Natsume Rin opened the door, held up the umbrella in her hand, and walked out of the room holding Shiina Mahiru's hand.
Not long after they left, Kasumigaoka Utaha was sitting on the sofa in the living room, looking at the closed door near the balcony and suddenly shouted.
"Yukinoshita-san, they're leaving."
There was no sound coming from inside, but Kasumigaoka Utaha knew that the other party must be listening.
"Maybe Kazuma will confess today. An angel like Shiina-chan is going to be harmed by Natsume Rin."
She continued to talk to herself in the living room and finally got some feedback.
"What about you, Senior?"
Yukino didn't come out, but spoke in the house with her signature cold voice.
"Aren't you also being harmed by him if you stay with him?"
"It's different. I took the initiative. Who made me fall in love with him? A fool like me can't escape once I fall in love." The senior student looked at her hands sadly, and then her mood improved.
"But I don't regret it. Compared to choosing a boy I don't like, at least I'm sure I really like him."
There was silence in the room, and the senior student took advantage of the situation and continued to explain her own twisted theory in earnest.
The most important thing is what you like. As for other things, you can strive for them.
The drizzle was falling, making a crisp sound when it fell on the leaves.
There were not many pedestrians on the rain-covered road, and their figures holding black umbrellas were particularly conspicuous.
“I was shocked when I found out there was an opera house in a resort.”
"It shouldn't be professional." Shiina Mahiru said uncertainly.
She hadn't been here many times, so she had no way of knowing how far the wealth and power could go.
“It’s semi-open, with the audience sitting outside.”
It was no longer his turn to introduce the opera house because the opera house could already be seen.
It was a rainy day and the place, which was already sparsely populated, was even more cramped. The chairs placed outside had been taken away, and when Natsume Rin pushed the revolving door and walked in, there were only a few people scattered inside.
Even so, the opera on stage is still going on normally.
Noticing that someone came over and chatted with Natsume Rin for a few words, Shiina Mahiru finally felt relieved.
It seems that it was not a spur of the moment decision to drag her to see the opera on a rainy day, but a carefully prepared confession scene.
After sitting down, looking at the rain outside, Shiina Mahiru felt a little worried, thinking that this might affect his plans.
"What are you looking at?"
After Natsume Rin made sure that the preparations had not been disclosed, she walked up to her and shook her palm.
"It's okay." Shiina Mahiru came back to her senses and pursed her lips delicately: "It's just strange that you are interested in opera."
"Interesting." Natsume Rin remained calm and collected.
He felt that his acting skills were good enough for him to be the leading actor on Tokyo TV. Shiina Mahiru looked at him with sympathy, thinking that such poor acting skills could only fool stupid high school students.
If she were a year or two older, she would never have been fooled.
The opera being performed on the stage gradually came to an end. It was a story adapted from a local story of the island country, and now with the addition of funny Japanese, it did have the feel of a farce.
Watching the actors leave the stage, Shiina Mahiru's heart began to pound.
Just like the bullets in the story would hit people, since it happened in the opera house, the confession must be related to the opera.
This is the law.
A female host walked onto the stage and announced in a gentle and soothing tone the next opera to be performed.
"Romeo and Juliet?" Shiina Mahiru looked at Natsume Rin, suspecting that he would not choose at all.
This is a tragic story through and through. Although it contains a romantic element, it is not suitable for expressing love in any way.
Or maybe it's not his turn to arrange the play yet?
"Don't be anxious." Natsume Rin held her hand, indicating that she should be patient.
Since we have chosen such a famous scene, we will of course make preparations in advance.
Shiina Mahiru felt relieved and watched the performance on the stage quietly.
This seemed to be a piece that the opera troupe was familiar with, and the actors' posture, movements, lines and expressions all revealed confidence.
But it looks like tragedy is still going to happen.
As the couple is about to part, the actress playing Juliet stops Romeo from drinking the poison.
"Honey, no!"
"I paid for them to revise the script. Juliet stopped Romeo, and the two families resolved their grudges in front of the grave and finally lived happily together."
Natsume Rin spoke gently in her ear, took out a carefully selected diamond ring from her arms, and knelt on one knee in front of Shiina Mahiru.
The atmosphere in the opera house suddenly changed, red flowers began to be placed on the roof, and two actors on the stage sang a beautiful love song.
Passersby who didn't understand the situation applauded the couple after hearing that this was a love confession scene.
Chapter 246 It’s time to meet the parents
"It seems to be sincere enough, and the scene is beautifully arranged, especially this ring. I like it very much." Shiina Mahiru picked up the diamond ring and commented on it by herself.
Natsume Rin blinked, not sure what she meant. Was this an agreement or a disagreement?
Since she accepted the ring, it means she agrees. But looking at the way she commented, Natsume Rin is not sure.
"But these people are really not the extras you hired." She leaned close to Natsume Rin and whispered, pointing at the people standing up around her.
"Do you think they look like people who are short of money?" Natsume Rin said in a low voice.
The people who could come here to watch the opera didn't seem like a group that could be bribed with a little money. Shiina Mahiru quickly accepted his explanation, and in the face of this spontaneous blessing, she still smiled happily.
"but……"
When she heard this word, Natsume Rin's legs began to tremble a little. This was a turn that everyone would be worried about.
"You've been preparing for so long, but the final battle doesn't seem to be worthy of your energy." Shiina Mahiru analyzed the strange clues like the best detective. If she put on a pair of black-framed glasses, she would fit the stereotypical detective image perfectly: "There's something wrong with you."
"Do I have a question?" Natsume Rin asked back.
"Of course, but I don't care about you." Shiina Mahiru narrowed her eyes, took the diamond ring and put it on her hand: "I agree, dear."
"My dear, you are so nice." Natsume Rin rubbed her hand gently.
The people around couldn't hear the specific words, but after seeing them hugging each other, they still applauded enthusiastically.
The venue gradually quieted down when the opera on the stage changed to another scene.
I didn't have any extra feelings when confessing to Natsume Rin this time. It felt as simple as a natural outcome. After all, Shiina's insistence was only that it was not romantic enough, and she had no intention of rejecting him.
"Accompany me to see father when we get back." Shiina Mahiru held his hand.
"Yes, that's what I should do." Natsume Rin said bravely.
Shiina Chaoyang was fooled by him last time. It is estimated that if he goes to see him again, and even more so as to go there as Shiina's official boyfriend, he will probably receive no less malicious intent.
What's more important is that a scumbag like him would feel guilty no matter how hard he tries when he meets his father-in-law.
"Don't worry." Feeling his nervousness, Shiina Mahiru comforted him instead, "I'm here, so don't be afraid even if there's trouble. I'm your lover, and it has nothing to do with my father."
With such a tone and attitude, Natsume Rin almost suspected that her next words would be to elope with her, and the two of them would escape to a place where Shiina Chaoyang would not be able to find them.
Unfortunately, the plot could not develop to this extent. The two of them discussed in a low voice how to deal with Shiina Chaoyang. After the rain outside stopped, they held hands and returned home.
Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was lying on the sofa in the living room watching TV, whistled when she saw this intimate posture, sat up straight and waved to Shiina Mahiru: "Shiina-san, come here!"
This woman really has no awareness of being a lover, instead she acts like a senior.
"What are you doing coming over here? This is a private conversation between girls, boys please stay away."
Natsume Rin, who was about to sit down, was pushed away by her senior. As a result, she was not even allowed to stay in the living room and was sent back to her room to reflect.
How should I manage my lover when he/she becomes overly arrogant?
Natsume Rin was lying on the bed flipping through her phone. The class monitor and the others were finally free during this holiday. The pictures they posted on their Moments were no longer complaints about the tiredness of cram school, but a few pictures of themselves at the baseball field.
He expressed his envy below, and was severely hit back by the squad leader.
"You bastard went on vacation with a bunch of beautiful girls and you came to laugh at me!"
I swear to God, Natsume Rin definitely doesn't have such thoughts. It's just that the class monitor is too sensitive.
After chatting with him for a while, I received a notification that there was a new message. I found out that it was a message sent by Yukino.
The problem is that the distance between the two seems to be closer than it appears on the Internet, right?
"The confession was successful? Congratulations."
The magic of language is revealed. Although these are cold words, Natsume Rin can imagine the conflicted expression on Yukino's face when she said these words.
"Ah."
In the next room, seeing such a bland answer, Yukinoshita Yukino felt a lump in her throat. She felt that continuing the conversation would be unfair to herself, but she still couldn't help but reach out.
"I hope you can treat Shiina-san well. She's a good girl."
Of the three girls that Natsume Rin has a close relationship with, the only one Yukino truly recognizes is Shiina Mahiru.
Her sister was never a good person, and her senior also had a very bad personality. Shiina was the only friend she truly liked, and the feeling of competition with her was what made Yukino most sad.
"I will definitely treat her well." Natsume Rin promised.
Even without Yukinoshita's words, he would not have done anything wrong to Shiina-san.
The chat box stopped jumping. Natsume Rin, who was in a good mood, lay on the bed looking at the ceiling. He suspected that Yukino sent the message just to make him depressed, but after thinking about it, she didn't seem to be such a boring person.
Hey~
After giving the ring to Shiina, the atmosphere of the vacation changed a lot.
"I want it too." While sitting outside in the sun in the afternoon, Kasumigaoka Utaha pestered Natsume Rin and acted cutely.
"What do you want?" Natsume Rin pretended to be surprised, stroking her butt with her big hand, showing a wicked smile, "Do you want this?"
