Seeing the happiness on the face of idiot Chifuyu, Sasaki's smile became even brighter and he also told her something.
Despite their current relationship allowing him to play the role of a green tea b*tch between her and Takagi, stirring up potential conflicts between the two, due to their different views on him.
The most classic example being, "Wow, Chifuyu, your boyfriend seems so fierce.
If he knew you were secretly chatting with me here, he won't blame you, right? If that's the case, we should reduce our contact in the future. I don't want you two to have conflicts because of me."
Such words could be very effective in creating a rift between Takagi and Tsukimi, accelerating the speed at which their relationship fractured.
But such a thing goes against Sasaki's original plan.
It went against his initial wishes and ideas.
Moreover, once this kind of action becomes public, it would not reflect well on Sasaki or idiot Chifuyu's reputation..
If it was directed at Sasaki alone, that would be one thing.
After all, for a guy, being bold, meticulous, and thick-skinned are basic elements.
Mere rumors could even enhance his status in Chifuyu's heart.
But involving her means this method was absolutely not an option.
His previous approach was to leave the choice to Takagi alone.
His actions alone could determine the direction of their relationship.
While the green tea tactic might be faster and more effective,
It shifts the reason and responsibility for the breakup onto Tsukimi.
After all, it was because Tsukimi and Sasaki were friends that the relationship between her and Takagi broke.
Even if they break up by then, the damage to Chifuyu Tsukimi would be huge.
And with the fragile and sensitive look of idiot, whether she could withstand this hurt was questionable.
Thus, Sasaki must absolutely not take on the role of a green tea bitch.
Not only must he not play this role, but he must also avoid letting Takagi find out about his friendship with Chifuyu as much as possible.
In public, when they talk and interact, if asked by others, they should just say they are ordinary classmates.
Because they sit near each other, some communication is normal.
But in front of Takagi, the stranger the two of them appear, the better.
If Takagi were the type to be extremely possessive and develops a dislike for Sasaki,
Then Sasaki won't be able to play the green tea role.
So, from the beginning, he had no intention of talking to or getting to know Takagi.
"Eh? Why?" Faced with his request, the idiot Chifuyu frowned, a little confused.
One was her boyfriend, and the other was her most important friend; even if they meet, it shouldn't be a problem, right?
Takagi-san is not an unreasonable person.
Seeing the thoughts clearly expressed in idiot Chifuyu's eyes, Sasaki looked around, then stretched out his hand, smiling as he gently rubbed her soft cheek.
"How do you think I look?"
"Hm?"
Not understanding why Fuyumi would ask this, but committed to responding to his questions, Chifuyu Tsukimi stared straight at him, seriously examining his face
Beneath the light brown short hair, a handsome face with sharp yet gentle features, pure and delicate as white jade.
His smiling face, with thick eyebrows, also showed gentle ripples.
Speaking of which, Fuyumi seems to always wear a smile when facing her.
Curved gently, like a bright and clear crescent moon in the dark night sky.
Though not very conspicuous, extremely gentle and pure.
Illuminating everything dark around, lighting up her lonely self.
Just like the smile at the convenience store yesterday, light but warm.
Recalling yesterday's blushing and heart-pounding scene in her mind, Chifuyu Tsukimi's originally peaceful eyes gradually became hazy, and even her soft and fair face took on a soft pink color.
Unable to bear another glance at that intoxicating face,
Chifuyu Tsukimi blinked quickly, turned her face to the side slightly shyly, and responded softly.
"Good-looking..."
"Isn't that a bit perfunctory?"
Faced with her simple two-word response, Sasaki Fuyumi tapped her forehead in dissatisfaction but didn't dwell on it too much.
After receiving the answer, he leaned forward, slightly bent his index finger, pressed down with his thumb, and gently pinched the round, small and tender chin of idiot Chifuyu, making her face him.
"So what if you compare with Takagi?"
He didn't get too close.
With a slight smile on his lips and a twinkle in his eyes, Sasaki looked at her, who was awkward and uneasy, her cheeks as tenderly flushed as if they were brushed with rouge.
Looking at Sasaki, who occupied most of her field of vision,
Tsukimi Chifuyu held her small white fleshy hand on her watermelons, her gaze flickering away as she stuttered her response.
"This kind of... thing..."
"Just tell the truth~ Or am I too ugly to embarrass Tsukimi?" Gently rubbing the idiot Chifuyu's chin, Sasaki had a smile in his eyes, but his expression was pretending to be lost. .
"No, it's not that..." Looking at the boy's disappointed expression, the girl hurriedly pulled her little hands out of her melons and swung it quickly.
Then she blinked and murmured softly in a soft voice.
"Um... handsome..."
"Who is handsome?" The smile in Sasaki's eyes became even wider, and his voice was soft.
Chifuyu Tsukimi, who was still hesitant in her heart, pursed her lips:
"that..."
The left hand that was placed on the table stretched out and gently pulled back the slender bangs hanging down from her forehead.
After tucking her hair behind her ear, Sasaki gently pinched her delicate and lovely earlobe.
"Quick, tell me~ Otherwise, it's hard for me to explain why we need to hide our friendship in front of Takagi."
Feeling the gentle rubbing of her left ear, Chifuyu Tsukimi squinted her left eye with some itch.
Then, spurred by his prompting and her own curiosity, her hesitation slowly dissolved, and she chose to speak the truth.
"More... more handsome than Takagi-san..."
"Say it again."
"Um... more handsome than Takagi-san."
"Chifuyu is awesome!"
Releasing the hand holding her chin, the boy praised her with a smile.
Then, leaning back, supporting his cheek, he explained why it was best not for the two of them to meet.
"Although Chifuyu can't say it directly, I am indeed more...well...attractive than Takagi."
"A boy who sees a boy who is more 'excellent' than him suddenly appears next to his girlfriend, no matter what the reason is, he will definitely feel flustered."
"Although he knows that the two may not have anything to do with each other, when he thinks that they are in the same class and are good friends and get along with each other every day, he will subconsciously reject this boy."
"It's nothing to be ashamed of; possessiveness is something every guy has."
"Once Chifuyu wants us to meet and admit our relationship as friends, Takagi may ask you to stay away from me for this reason."
"Would you agree to that? Or do you want to see that happen?"
Talking about the reason why it was not suitable for the two of them to meet.
He saw the idiot Chifuyu opening her mouth to say something, so Sasaki reached out and pinched her mouth.
"Mm~"
"Let me finish first."
"You might have a lot of confidence in Takagi, but I understand men's thoughts far better than you."
"Considering this very likely outcome, do you want to bet on Takagi's tolerance to prove his magnanimity, but at the cost of distancing you and me?"
Withdrawing his hand back.
Having finished speaking, Sasaki leaned back, his arms resting on the table, the water-like tenderness in his eyes gradually solidifying into a bone-chilling indifference.
Although he was sure that the little fool in front of him wouldn't gamble.
But too much confidence is arrogance.
And arrogant people often do not end well.
So, just in case this little fool really decides to stubbornly take that bet,
He felt it necessary to show his stance and the consequences of her choice to be a gambling dog.
And when Sasaki's indifference, as if looking at a stranger, was cast upon Chifuyu Tsukimi, the reaction she had was far greater than he expected.
