Chapter 397: 114. History-flavored chocolate or chocolate-flavored history_2

"What is your response, President?"

"..."

Yes!

Too preoccupied with the Demon Mind Reading Technique, I had forgotten to reply to Sakuragi’s invitation.

Yan Huan was slightly stunned, looking at the breathtakingly beautiful girl staring straight at him.

For some reason, he suddenly thought of the time when the Yuanyue Student Council was first established.

...

...

"I still have some matters to attend to, I’ll take the remaining materials back and finish them, so I’ll head out now."

The twilight stained the student council office, dragging memories back to the past.

Yan Huan opened the Yuanyue Student Council office door, walked to the bookshelf by the door, and took two folders.

Without even glancing at the girl in the Sakura uniform sitting on the sofa, he planned to leave.

"Yan Huan."

At that moment, the girl behind him suddenly spoke, stopping Yan Huan who was about to leave.

He paused for a moment, turned around to look at the girl sitting on the sofa, and asked,

"What is it, Vice President."

"..."

The girl put down the teacup she was holding on the table and spoke faintly,

"Since the establishment of the student council, you have never worked here, the student council office has almost become my exclusive tea room."

Hearing this, Yan Huan turned back and said with equal indifference,

"I usually have to work in the afternoons and take a nap at noon, so I barely have time to come here. Besides, isn’t this arrangement quite good?"

But Sakuragi Hitomi stared straight at him, cutting to the chase,

"Are you upset with me because I took over the position of vice president from Yahashiki, right?"

Yan Huan also looked back at her, retorting coldly,

"Isn’t that the truth, Sakuragi Hitomi?"

The atmosphere between the young man and woman gradually became tense.

"..."

"A person who has done nothing from the start to the end of the elections and merely enjoyed success because of family background—why should others show you any respect?"

"..."

Sakuragi Hitomi watched Yan Huan, offering no reply.

But the next second, she suddenly stood up and walked toward him.

She was significantly shorter than Yan Huan, so she had to look up to meet his gaze.

Yet her aura was not weak at all, her tone still calm,

"...Yan Huan, although it’s rare for outer students to be presidents in the history of Yuanyue Student Council, it’s not unprecedented.

"However, a student council leadership entirely comprised of outer students has never happened."

Hearing this, Yan Huan was slightly taken aback.

"Because of the issue that all the student council officers you initially nominated were outer students, it has already caused dissatisfaction among many people, including those who originally supported you."

"They respect you because you are truly exceptional; but that doesn’t mean those proud young masters and mistresses will accept other outer students.

"You don’t want to repeat the past mistakes of the student council, so you refuse the interference of wealthy inner court students and their parents. Little do you know, the more you do so, the more counterproductive it becomes."

Sakuragi Hitomi, however, changed her tune and said to Yan Huan,

"But I’m different, my background is far beyond your imagination.

"With me serving as the vice president in the student council, no one, including the school authorities, will have any objections.

"Most importantly, I’m not an outer student, and I don’t get along with the inner court students.

"I have no friends and don’t get along with anyone, isn’t that convenient for you?"

Sakuragi Hitomi looked at Yan Huan with a slight smile, saying this, then she turned her head and walked towards the sofa.

"..."

Yan Huan stared at her petite figure, and for some reason, he suddenly felt her silhouette was so lonely.

It was like every time he saw her at school, always walking alone...

It was irresistibly compelling to inquire about her reasons.

But still, her voice continued to reach him,

"Besides, I won’t interfere with your decisions, and my capabilities are outstanding... most importantly, Yahashi has already agreed to my appointment as vice president...

"Considering all aspects, it couldn’t be more appropriate for me to serve as vice president of the student council, could it, President?"

Yan Huan watched Sakuragi Hitomi sit back on the sofa and pick up her teacup.

Watching her exquisite profile, Yan Huan retorted,

"It sounds like you’re selflessly offering to help me?"

"Take it however you will."

"What’s the reason?"

Sakuragi Hitomi sipped her tea, turned to look at Yan Huan, and said calmly,

"The reason is... no comment."

"No comment..."

Yan Huan held the documents, murmuring.

"But..."

"But?"

"Isn’t your name ’Yan Huan’? If you smile more in front of me in the future, maybe I’ll tell you~"

Sakuragi Hitomi, sipping her tea, gave a faint smile, tossing this jest.

With a trace of liveliness, she broke free from the stereotypical image in Yan Huan’s prejudiced vision.

Although, Yan Huan had known of "Sakuragi Hitomi’s" renowned name since enrolling.

But it seemed like now, for the first time, he truly understood her.

"..."

He didn’t reply but just closed the door of the student council office, turned his head, and planned to leave.

"Click..."

With the evening light at his back, walking along...

Unconsciously, the corners of Yan Huan’s mouth curved up slightly.

...

...

Moonlight once again filled Yan Huan’s vision, slowly tinting the expressionless face of Sakuragi Hitomi, giving her a faint smile in this moment.

Reminding Yan Huan: Now, she is just inches away from you.

Just like then, except...

Then, Sakuragi Hitomi’s expressionless "no comment" was twisted by the moonlight into a fan-concealed "won’t tell you."
