Chapter 396: 114. A history-flavored chocolate or a chocolate-flavored history

"??"

Yan Huan blinked, seriously doubting whether he was experiencing auditory hallucinations.

It was like in an English listening test where one moment everyone is happily discussing where to go tomorrow for fun, and the next moment someone pulls out a wand to fiercely whack the other’s buttocks.

Yan Huan intended to ask the demon to repeat the second sentence to confirm its specifics, but just like the listening test that’s heard only once, it ended without a sequel.

Because the next thing that arrived at the battlefield was the third sentence:

"The seaside scenery tonight is so beautiful~"

After the simple statement, only the sound of the waves remained, with no other inner voices emerging.

It was as if everything that had happened was merely an illusion.

The demon had finished stating its three thoughts.

But these three sentences from the demon almost caused Yan Huan’s CPU to burn out.

He never believed in a sixth sense before, but right now he regretted not following his instinct from a few seconds ago and instead, he used the Mind Reading Technique on Sakuragi.

The atmosphere had been just right; Sakuragi had already spoken those words, and yet he still unyieldingly sought to confirm.

Now, he was drenched in cold sweat, and his entire body tensed up.

Then, he took a deep breath, his brain spinning rapidly.

Let’s analyze the current situation first...

The rule of the demon’s Mind Reading Technique was simple: two of the statements must be true, and one might be true or false.

However, what Yan Huan had feared most still happened.

The demon’s trap might not necessarily be the third statement; it could be any one of them.

Among the three statements, it was the first two that baffled Yan Huan the most, so he started analyzing from the third.

"The seaside scenery tonight is so beautiful~"

Yan Huan glanced at Sakuragi Hitomi who, after making the agreement, turned her head to smile at him before looking towards the sea.

Her eyes, reflecting the ocean and the blurry moonlight on the surface, unconsciously tilted her head, savoring the moment.

This statement...

Should be true?

Then, assuming the third statement is true, let’s examine the previous two...

There are three possible scenarios.

The first scenario: the first sentence is true, and the second is false.

Which means, the second sentence is just a ruse by the demon.

Sakuragi has feelings for him, and even used words like "I really like" to express the intensity.

The thought of the normally elegant and adorable Sakuragi liking someone like him...

Even just thinking about it made Yan Huan’s heart flutter.

But the problem is, this was precisely the point Yan Huan wanted to confirm with the Mind Reading Technique!

If the result from the technique were to give a hundred percent affirmation, then of course it would be a universal celebration.

But now...

There are other, bigger possibilities!

The second scenario: the first sentence is false, the second is true.

This is arguably the worst-case scenario.

Which means, Sakuragi not only doesn’t like him, she might even be a voyeuring pervert!!

Contemplating this possibility, Yan Huan’s attention subconsciously focused on the former.

If Sakuragi didn’t like him, what then was the meaning behind what she had said to him just now?

He couldn’t help but think.

Before him, the image of Sakuragi looking out to sea seemed to undergo a subtle change.

"Alas, President, it’s merely the most basic courtesy of a Ying Country noblewoman, what are you thinking?

"Presenting me, such a grand young miss, with such a cheap thing, it’s already very cultivated of me to humor you..."

In his dark imaginings, it seemed as if Sakuragi revealed a contemptuous smile, leaned close to his ear, and disdainfully asked,

"You don’t think, President, that I like you just because of a bit of basic politeness, do you? How utterly ordinary and self-confident..."

"..."

Yan Huan swallowed, feeling as if in some unseen illusion, Sakuragi Hitomi covered her mouth that bore a taunting smile.

Her cold, mocking eyes looked at him, taunting,

"Little Chu Nan with zero love experience sure has a vivid imagination, how cute~"

"!!"

Thinking this far, Yan Huan’s whole person seemed to turn somewhat pale.

Logically speaking, the more you care about someone, the heavier their opinions weigh on you.

If it were a stranger he had never met before saying this to him, Yan Huan would probably just laugh it off, thinking "the fool exposes his folly".

But if it were Sakuragi, whom he had spent so much time with and developed feelings for, saying this...

It might just resurrect all the insecurities from his past lives.

"There’s... there’s also a third scenario..."

Yan Huan covered his head, forcibly pulled back his somewhat distracted emotions, and returned to rational analysis.

The third scenario, the first and second sentences are true.

Good news: Sakuragi also likes him.

Bad news: Sakuragi is a voyeuristic pervert.

At this thought, Yan Huan’s mind went blank again.

"President?"

"Ah?"

At this moment, the voice of Sakuragi Hitomi beside him suddenly pulled him back to reality.

Yan Huan quickly turned his head and saw Sakuragi Hitomi looking straight at him, questioning,

"President, is the seawater too cold, making you a bit uncomfortable? Should we not stay in the water anymore..."

"...No, it’s just that, I’m thinking about something."

"Could it be that my invitation for the President to go to your ideal seaside is such a difficult choice?"

"Not really..."

"Then..."

Sakuragi Hitomi moved closer to him, smiling as she asked,
