Although Lin Xi lamented his own depravity and shamelessness.
He was experiencing the fragrant and soft touch of Shiina Mahiru in his arms.
Depraved and shameless, then depraved and shameless.
"Sayu, don't go."
He murmured again, holding her even tighter.
With such a beauty in his arms.
And it was the angel he had always had feelings for, Shiina Mahiru.
As a normal boy, Lin Xi naturally began to 'stand at attention'.
But he declared.
This was a passive 'golden gun doesn't fall' triggered by itself; it wasn't that he wanted to bully her.
It was just a normal reaction.
Shiina Mahiru was embarrassed.
She was a little scared, and her expression quickly became flustered.
She wanted to push him away.
Tell him that she wasn't Sayu, that he couldn't hold her like this.
But he was holding her too tightly.
She couldn't break free for a moment.
On the other hand.
Lin Xi had caught a cold to give her the umbrella.
She thought that she should just treat it as compensation for him, so she subconsciously stopped struggling.
Furthermore.
This embrace was unexpectedly warm.
Had Sayu always been able to experience this kind of warmth?
I'm a little envious.
But…
Why is he getting hotter and hotter, more and more alarming!
Lin Xi didn't go too far.
He did this only to create an accidental intimacy with Shiina Mahiru.
If he went too far and she found out he was faking, being disliked would be a greater loss.
So he muttered, "Sayu, no matter why you ran away from home, Sakura Dormitory will always be your home."
After saying that, he released the girl's slender waist.
Shiina Mahiru was stunned, then quickly broke away from his embrace.
Raising her hand to his forehead, she frowned immediately.
"So hot!"
"Is he starting to burn again?"
"He's so muddle-headed from the fever, but he doesn't forget to comfort Sayu. Their relationship is really good."
As she spoke, Shiina Mahiru couldn't help but pout slightly, feeling a little sour.
She quickly returned to her room, took a fever reducer from the spare medicine box, and fed it to Lin Xi.
Then she stayed by his side to wipe his sweat.
That's why they say faking illness is a technical skill.
It's really difficult for him to keep sweating.
However, as long as you want to do something beautiful that makes your blood boil, it's not impossible to make your body heat up.
It's just maintaining the standing state.
It looks very indecent.
Shiina Mahiru's face was red the whole time, and she deliberately avoided looking.
But occasionally, she glanced.
She couldn't help but cover her little mouth in surprise.
Too scary…
An hour later.
Shiina Mahiru looked at Lin Xi, whose fever had subsided, and whose standing state had returned to normal, and smiled.
She felt a strange sense of accomplishment in her heart.
However, looking towards the door, she felt a little guilty.
Originally, this job of taking care of a boy should have been done by Hagiwara Sayu.
Why did she let her do it?
In Shiina Mahiru's mind, she couldn't help but recall Lin Xi's dream talk just now.
[Sayu, don't go, no matter why you ran away from home, Sakura Dormitory will always be your home.]
So that cute girl who looks very gentle and playful, Hagiwara Sayu, is actually in a runaway state?
She looks about the same age as me.
Taking in a high school girl without permission is against the law.
It seems Lin Xi really likes Sayu.
However, why did Hagiwara Sayu run away from home?
Now, is she going to leave Lin Xi, leave Sakura Dormitory?
So she doesn't object to me taking care of Lin Xi, hoping that after she leaves, someone can divert his attention?
Shiina Mahiru's mood became complicated.
She doesn't want to be a substitute!
However, thinking of this man who rushed over to bring her an umbrella when she was most down.
Thinking of the warmth of being held tightly in his arms just now.
Shiina Mahiru's heart was in a mess.
Using a towel to wipe Lin Xi's cheeks and neck, Shiina Mahiru tiptoed out of his room.
She came to the living room.
At this time, Hagiwara Sayu had finished her housework and was sitting on the sofa resting.
Seeing Shiina Mahiru come out, she asked.
"How is Lin Xi?"
Shiina Mahiru honestly replied, "He had a fever again just now, but he's fine now."
Hagiwara Sayu was nervous when she heard that he had a fever again, but she breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that the fever had subsided.
Shiina Mahiru took her expression into her eyes, and hesitating, she still asked:
"Sayu, did you run away from home?"
"Eh, how did you know?"
Hagiwara Sayu had a surprised expression.
Shiina Mahiru took the opportunity to sit next to her and said with a complicated mood:
"Lin-san was talking in his sleep just now, and I accidentally heard it."
"He told you not to go, saying that Sakura Dormitory will always be your home."
Hagiwara Sayu was stunned, then the corners of her mouth curved into a sweet arc.
"I won't leave, this is my home."
Shiina Mahiru frowned, "But taking in a high school girl without permission is against the law. What if your family comes looking for you? What will we do then?"
Hagiwara Sayu showed a disappointed expression.
"He won't look for me. If he really cared about me, why hasn't he come looking for me even now? Hey, Shiina, do you know why I ran away from home?"
Shiina Mahiru shook her head, "I don't want to know. If you're willing to tell me, I'll be the best listener."
"Also, I'm about the same as you. My mother doesn't want me to leave that [home], because I moved to Sakura Dormitory without permission, and she scolded me."
"It's ridiculous, I've been working hard to become excellent, to stay excellent, wanting to gain my parents' approval, but yesterday I was told that no matter what I do, my birth was a mistake from the beginning."
"So I'm also in a runaway state."
Hagiwara Sayu's eyes lit up when she heard this.
No wonder she always felt that Shiina Mahiru's perfect smile hid an unknown secret. It turned out that she was also a child who wasn't liked by her family.
Calming herself, Hagiwara Sayu took a deep breath.
"Hey, can you listen to my story, Shiina-san?"
"Of course, I'm willing to listen."
Hagiwara Sayu smiled, "Then you have to promise not to tell Lin Xi, okay? I'm not ready to tell him yet."
Shiina Mahiru nodded vigorously, "As a reward, I'll also tell you my story. You also can't tell him."
Then, the two exchanged their backgrounds and current situations.
After speaking, the way the two looked at each other changed.
Although the situations were different.
But the two had very similar experiences.
But there were still differences.
Sayu had experienced the betrayal of her best friend, who committed suicide in front of her, making Sayu bear all the blame. Later, she was hurt by her mother's distrust.
Her brother also didn't care about her, only giving her 300,000 yen to relax.
As a brother, he completely didn't notice that what she needed wasn't money at all, but just a little bit of care would have satisfied her. Otherwise, she wouldn't have run away from home.
Shiina Mahiru was more excellent. She wasn't cold because she was beautiful and was isolated.
On the contrary, because of her approachable attitude, she gained many "friends."
But all of this effort turned into meaningless things under her mother's truth yesterday.
Her mother clearly told her that she was a child who wasn't expected to be born.
Her mother and father didn't care about her.
Because of her existence, her mother and father couldn't divorce.
As long as she used the money her parents gave her, lived in that "home", finished high school, went to college, and gained the ability to live alone.
Those two people would divorce immediately.
At that time, she would have nothing to do with those two people at all.
After telling her story, Shiina Mahiru's tears couldn't stop falling.
Hagiwara Sayu couldn't help but open her arms and hug this girl who was quite similar to herself.
Her own eyes were also full of tears.
It was embarrassing to cry.
However, after telling someone about it, she felt a sense of relief in her heart, inexplicably comfortable.
Mainly because Shiina Mahiru recognized her and felt that things would develop that way, and it wasn't her fault.
