Chapter 303: 157. School Trip (6)_3

Jiutiao Meijie hadn’t spoken yet when the girl who had just run out returned, her cheeks faintly flushed from the run.

"Mr. Xiaoquan agreed," she said breathlessly.

"Okay." Jiutiao Meijie nodded slightly.

Dubian Che smiled at the girl and said, "Thank you."

The girl froze, staring dumbly at Dubian Che, her blush deepening.

Suddenly, a chill emanated from Jiutiao Meijie, her icy stare shooting towards Dubian Che.

She said deliberately, "I have told you before, I don’t allow you to smile."

Dubian Che quickly pursed his lips, closed his eyes, slightly bowed his head, and made an "I’m very sorry, I won’t do it again" expression.

Seeing his perfunctory apology, Jiutiao Meijie pointed to the door, her face cold, "Get back."

"At your command!" Dubian Che quickly dashed off.

Even before school was over, the news that all four classes of the first year were going to Capital City had spread.

Especially Class 2, who boasted everywhere that Jiutiao Meijie had taken out a large sum of money as the travel fund for Class 2, allowing them to stay in the best hotels and eat the most expensive cuisine.

Not only that, but they were also planning to use the money given by their families, which should have been handed over to the school as accommodation fees, as pocket money instead.

This drew immense envy from the majority of the students.

"Dubian, speak to Jiutiao, why don’t you cover our Class 4 as well? See, you and her are a couple, so Class 4 and Class 2 are practically one family!" Saito Keisuke suggested cheekily.

"You could switch to Class 2, I’ll talk to Mr. Xiaoquan for you," answered Dubian Che.

"Am I the kind of person who would abandon his friends for money?" Saito Keisuke patted his chest, "But, just a three-day exchange should be no problem."

"Enough you two, the most critical issue is my problem!" Normally, Kunii Shuichi would join in the jest, but now he could only think about Ichiki Aoi.

"That’s true, Kunii’s happiness is more important," nodded Saito Keisuke.

"Have you guys thought of any plans?" Kunii Shuichi asked anxiously.

Saito Keisuke shook his head, "I don’t understand Ichiki well; I have no idea what to do."

When it came to who understood Ichiki Aoi best, both looked at Dubian Che.

"Dubian, you’ve been in the Wind Instrument Club for a semester; you’re the one here who understands Ichiki the most. Any suggestions?"

"The best understanding... compared to you two, seems so," Dubian Che played with an eraser, spinning it between his thumb and forefinger, "The ancients said: to shoot the man, first shoot the horse; to capture the thieves, first capture the king. Catching the core is the key to getting things done, and of course, it’s no exception when pursuing a girl."

"Yeah, yeah!" Both nodded, looking at him expectantly.

"The most crucial thing about this, is your success rate in confessing, Kunii, not even a thousand percent, not even a hundred percent, I suggest that you just give up..."

"Saito, think of something else for me!"

"Hey, at least let me finish."

After class, Ichiki Aoi visited the Human Observation Department, her excuse to the new head, Ayane Kumi, for taking leave was: to seek guidance from Kiyono.

Mayi Asuka, who was specially invited back to the Wind Instrument Club to oversee the bass section, happily approved as well.

The three held their final discussion, and Dubian Che once again suggested the "shoot the man first shoot the horse, capture the thieves first capture the king" strategy, advising to give up early.

It was a tactic that would make people dislike him, but what else could be done?

Dubian Che sometimes wondered if he was too kind? It was just one failed confession, no need to fret over it.

But whatever, he didn’t care about being disliked.

The key issue was how to handle Mayi Asuka’s anticipated confession.

After Ichiki Aoi left, Dubian Che and Kiyono Lin also started packing up to leave.

"Heard you did something good today?" At the shoe lockers, Kiyono Lin said while changing shoes.

"Good deed?" Dubian Che thought, "Can you specify? I did quite a number of good deeds today."

Kiyono Lin paused in her actions, closed the locker, and looked at Dubian Che bending over to change his shoes, and said sarcastically, "Thanks to you, Mr. Dubian Che, classmates look at me with strange eyes."

"Are you looking at me? Isn’t that normal? For a cute girl like you, I’d keep staring too."

"...you’re right, but that’s not what I’m talking about." Kiyono Lin clenched her delicate fist, bringing it to her mouth and coughed lightly, "The young miss from Class Two is contributing money, so naturally people in Class One expect their young miss to contribute too."

"That matter, huh."

Dubian Che changed his shoes, closed the shoe cabinet, and they both walked toward the school gate under the cover of night.

After November, by six o’clock, it had already gotten dark.

"Don’t you have anything to explain?"

"I believe whether it’s Ichiki Aoi or Kunii, both of them won’t succeed."

"Does that have anything to do with what I’m saying?" Kiyono Lin said discontentedly.

"Because they won’t succeed, I don’t want to waste time and would rather hang out with my girlfriend."

"So, that’s why you invited Jiutiao Meiji to Capital City?"

"Clarification: I couldn’t possibly persuade her, she didn’t want to go to Hokkaido herself."

"Lies."

"Well, whether she wants to go to Hokkaido or not, I really don’t know."

"’I couldn’t possibly persuade her,’ that’s a lie too."

"Can you now determine from a sentence, specifically which parts are lies?" Dubian Che looked surprisingly at her profile.

"No, but I don’t need to think to know it’s a lie."

"Well, I can persuade her a little bit." Dubian Che showed a small distance with his thumb and index finger, "Around the same degree to which I could persuade you."

"You think you can persuade me?" Kiyono Lin stopped walking.

Looking at the cool face of the beautiful girl in front of him, Dubian Che didn’t know how to answer this question.

At the school gate, a colossal oak tree, thirty meters tall, had entered its winter state, with leaves scattered all over.

It was hard to imagine that in the summer, its lush green leaves and vibrant vitality covered the sky.

Some things are just unavoidable, like this oak tree. Being a deciduous tree, it would inevitably shed leaves in autumn.

After hearing Dubian Che’s comments about the oak tree, Kiyono Lin replied unhappily, "What exactly are you trying to say? Answer my question."

"You’re a girl, right?"

"If your eyes are useless, you might donate them to someone in need."

Dubian Che glanced at Kiyono Lin’s chest and before her expression worsened, he spoke, "Since you are a girl, you will definitely fall for me, and if you’ve fallen for me, being persuaded by me is quite normal, isn’t it?"

Kiyono Lin showed a friendly smile, her tone gentle, "Mayi Asuka likes you?"

"I don’t know."

"Lies. You confessed to her?"

"I don’t know."

"Lies. Did she confess to you?"

Dubian Che waved at a train departing from Shibuya Station in the distance, "Hello there? I’m doing great!"

"Are you two together?"

"Do you know?" Dubian Che turned around, smiling brightly, "I absolutely love trains."

Kiyono Lin gave a nonchalant laugh, terrifyingly devoid of any real amusement, "On the field trip, I’ll ask Mayi some questions."

"Kiyono, in light of this beautiful moment, I’d like to recite a poem to you. ’Ode to the Oak Tree,’ by Shuting. ’If I love you, it won’t be like a clinging vine on your high branch showing off myself; if I love you...’"

During the broadcast tone recitation of "Ode to the Oak Tree," whatever Kiyono Lin said at that moment, Dubian Che didn’t hear it clearly.

He only remembered the train rumbling past, its lights greedily brushing over her beautiful profile, her expression both resigned and amusing.
