Chapter 154: There Are A Lot Of Clever Ones Indeed
After the bonfire party ended, the summer camp in the forest also came to an end.
And after solving the委托 from Kamihiriue Ruumi, this trip for the Service Club could be considered a successful conclusion.
The morning sun was not glaring, but soft and warm, its rays passing through the treetops, throwing speckled shadows on the ground.
The bus for transporting elementary school students stopped in an open area, waiting for passengers to board.
“Alright, before we go home, let us express our gratitude to the brothers and sisters who have been working hard these past few days!” The person in charge stood on the flag-raising platform, holding a megaphone and said to everyone.
“Brothers and sisters, thank you so much~!” The小学生 in elementary school uniforms stretched their voices in unison.
“Hope this summer camp would leave you with unforgettable memories,” said Hayama Hayato and his acquaintances with smiles as they bid farewell to the children.
After the elementary school kids boarded the bus and left, Hayama Hayato and others also got into the minivan they arrived in and left, while Hiratsuka Shizuka drove over, rolling down her window to call to everyone: “Pack your belongings and get in.”
However, just as Hayama’s car left, a red Aston Martin pulled up slowly in front of them.
Hiratsuka Shizuka, hearing the engine sound, curiously poked her head out of the car window. Upon seeing the familiar sports car, she suddenly wore a surprised expression.
The car window opened, revealing Yukinoshita Yono’s coquettish face, “Hello~ Lin Qi, are you happy to see me?”
Yukinoshita Yono actually ignored her younger sister and wanted to talk to that Lin Qi first!
While seeing Yuno was only a surprise for Hiratsuka Shizuka, what she saw next quickly turned her surprise to shock.
One must know, Yukinoshita Yono is thoroughly doting over her little sister, but there was something a bit perverse about it.
Not greeting her sister first, but instead flirting with another man!
“Happy, of course.”
Lin Qi nodding dismissively, then gestured for her to open the trunk, placing both his luggage and Yukinoshita Yukino’s.
“Why is my sister here?” Yukinoshita Yukino frowned slightly as she asked, standing by the car door.
“Just came to pick you up, of course.” Yukinoshita Yono smiled, eyes squinted, “You know Mom’s personality. Even if I try my hardest, I can’t make you spend your whole summer break at home.”
“And after that incident, she became even more worried about you living alone. It took quite some effort for me to persuade her.”
Realizing she couldn’t put it off any longer, Yukinoshita Yukino sighed helplessly and then turned to Hachiman Hikigaya and company, saying, “Sorry, I cannot go back with you all. Let’s part ways here.”
“Greetings to Snow乃’s friends too.” Recognizing this group of friends, Yukinoshita Yono waved at them.
“…Snow, are you okay?” Yui Yuigahama noticed her friend wasn’t looking well.
“Of course I am.” The black-haired girl immediately displayed a faint smile, “Goodbye.”
With that, Yukinoshita Yukino approached the front passenger car door, finding Lin Qi already seated inside, staring silently for a second before getting in through the back door.
The engine roared, dust swirled up, and the car zoomed out of sight.
Watching the red Aston Martin disappear in envy, Hiratsuka Shizuka looked back and beckoned to everyone else in.
…
“Even if it’s to pick me up, Sister didn’t need to go out of her way especially to pick me up in Chiba Village, did she?”
From the back seat, looking at the two in front happily conversing, Yukinoshita Yukino questioned in puzzlement, seemingly with a covert hint of dissatisfaction. It was unclear to whom this feeling was directed.
“Because I missed you so much~” laughed Yukinoshita Yono.
“But we met just the other night.”
“So what? Longings know no time frame.”
“Heh heh.”
The black-haired girl laughed emotionlessly. She didn’t believe a word coming from her elder sister. Yuno must be plotting something unpleasant.
“How cold it is~” the short-haired beauty innocently added, “don’t you think so, Lin Qi?”
“Huh? What’s that got to do with me?” Lin Qi was puzzled being called out.
“Well, would 小雪乃 be cold to Lin Qi?”
“Eh, average.”
“Hold on, this has nothing to do with Lin Qi! Don’t drag the outsider into this!”
Their voices rang out almost simultaneously, and it seemed to touch a nerve with Yuno, making her laugh so hard she nearly lost her balance. Her chest jiggled with each breath.
Yuno was wearing a simple today, an oversized white shirt paired with a light brown blazer. The shirt stretched over the curves of her chest, outlining her perfect figure.
Unaffected, Lin Qi continued without diverting his gaze, “Drive properly.”
“Oh!” Yuno seemed to have a sudden recollection after calming down a bit, “why not introduce Lin Qi to Mother during this opportunity?”
“What?”
A big question mark slowly appeared on top of Yukinoshita Yukino’s head. She had to wonder if the wind at high altitude broke her sister’s mind last night, otherwise why would she suggest such a thing.
“Sister, what do you plan? Bringing Lin Qi back home? Under what pretext?” The black-haired girl fired three rapid-fire questions in succession.
“As Yukino’s housemate, obviously!” Yuno replied naturally, a teasing smile spreading across her face.
“Sister!”
Seeing her sister seemed genuinely upset, Yukinoshita Yono apologized quickly. After all, this Snow乃 isn’t as malleable as before.
Physically, she was still the one easily manipulated.
If this Snow乃 truly got angry and decided to play hardball, things wouldn’t be fun at all.
Yuno enjoyed seeing things, but not being in it.
Listening to the banter between the sisters, Lin Qi in the front passenger seat shook his head helplessly and sighed inwardly—compared to Yuno, Snow乃是 still too innocent, completely missing the traps set by her sister.
Her every reaction was controlled by Yuno, maybe in a few more rounds, the color of her underwear would be revealed.
