Chapter 182: The Woman Who Was Ruthlessly Abandoned by Azuma
"Are you okay?"
Yukima Azuma still kept his hand supporting Fujiwara Chika's waist, preventing her from falling to the ground.
Even so, her condition wasn't much better.
Her bright blue eyes were now welling up with tears, looking unusually pitiful.
Her tiny hands covered her nose, letting out a faint whimper.
Clearly, when they collided, Fujiwara Chika had hit her nose.
"I'm okay, I'm really sorry... huhuhu..."
(˚ ˃̣̣̥⌓˂̣̣̥ )
At first, Fujiwara Chika intended to apologize.
After all, she was the one who suddenly opened the door and rushed out.
But halfway through her sentence, she suddenly burst into tears.
After all, getting hit on the nose naturally makes tears flow.
Yukima Azuma took a tissue from his pocket and handed it to Fujiwara Chika so she could wipe her tears.
He gently pulled her hands down, revealing the nose she had been covering.
( ´・・)ノ(._.`)
He carefully observed it.
"It's okay, it doesn't seem broken, and there's no nosebleed. Do you want to go to the hospital?"
Fujiwara Chika shook her head vigorously.
Tears scattered with the movement, sparkling like scattered pearls.
She didn't want to go to the hospital, and besides, this wasn't exactly a serious injury.
"Then let me take you to get some ice, it can help reduce the pain."
As he spoke, Yukima Azuma took Fujiwara Chika's hand and led her toward the counter.
Once they had left—
Shinomiya Kaguya and Hayasaka Ai (in Hasaka mode) peeked their heads out.
"The plan is going even more smoothly than expected. Is that man... really that gentle? Or do you think this is just acting, Hayasaka?"
Shinomiya Kaguya watched the two walk away, a scrutinizing look in her eyes.
(≖_≖ )
But she didn't receive an answer for a while.
This made her puzzled.
"Hayasaka?" Kaguya turned to look at her super-pro maid.
Hayasaka Ai snapped back to reality, forcing down the slightly sour feeling in her heart.
(。•́︿•̀。)
"Kaguya-sama, did you call me?"
"I was asking... never mind." Shinomiya Kaguya paused, choosing not to continue the question.
She felt that Hayasaka Ai was acting a little strange when it came to this man.
Previously, Kaguya had thought Hayasaka was being bullied by him.
But upon investigating again, she discovered that it was actually her maid who had taken the initiative to disguise herself and meet that man.
What exactly had happened? Kaguya still couldn't understand.
But one thing was certain—Hayasaka's unusual behavior was definitely related to that man!
So, Kaguya, who had already intended to recruit Yukima Azuma, was now even more determined to carry out this plan.
She had to speed things up!
Thinking it over, Shinomiya Kaguya felt that just using the exchange student invitation from Shuchiin might not be enough.
That man wasn't an ordinary person, and he probably wasn't too enamored with this so-called prestigious noble academy.
So, Kaguya thought of Fujiwara Chika.
The daughter of a political family.
Even Shinomiya Kaguya had to admit that Chika was someone extremely difficult to deal with.
Chaotic actions, completely unpredictable, and an energy level that ordinary people could never match.
Shinomiya Kaguya often secretly complained that Fujiwara Chika was like a "cancer" to this planet.
All she had to do was arrange for Fujiwara Chika to meet that man.
Then become friends.
And at the right moment, reveal his identity.
Fujiwara Chika would definitely do everything in her power to make him accept the exchange student invitation!
Everything Just According to Keikaku!
(≖⩊≖)
...
The staff brought over ice and clean tissues.
Yukima Azuma wrapped it up a little, then gently applied it to Fujiwara Chika's nose.
"Uwaa~!" Fujiwara Chika let out a startled cry.
(˚ ˃̣̣̥⌓˂̣̣̥ )
The surrounding customers immediately turned to look at her.
Chika quickly lowered her head.
(>/////< " )
The ice pack quickly took effect.
The nose that had been throbbing in pain gradually lost the sensation of pain, and even the swelling reduced.
"Thank you so much! I'm Fujiwara Chika, what's your name?"
Fujiwara Chika wiped away the last tear lingering at the corner of her eye, her mood shifting in an instant, her eyes shining as she looked at Yukima Azuma.
Someone with a personality full of energy like hers was easily moved by acts of kindness.
"I'm Yukima Azuma, nice to meet you."
Yukima Azuma introduced himself.
Updat𝓮d from freewēbnoveℓ.com.
"Ehh? So you're that Yukima-kun!" Fujiwara Chika's eyes sparkled even brighter.
ヾ(。✪ω✪。)シ
"Fujiwara-san has heard about me?"
"Umu! I'm a student at Shuchiin, my friend told me about you! Top 1 in the inter-school exam, that's really amazing!"
"I see. I'm a student at Toyogasaki Private Academy. Who's your friend?"
"It's Kaguya-chan! Her full name is Shinomiya Kaguya. This is the first time I've ever seen someone smarter than Kaguya-chan!"
"So it's Shinomiya-san."
"Eh? Yukima-kun, you know Kaguya-chan? We're out together today!"
Saying that, Fujiwara Chika immediately grabbed Yukima Azuma's hand, enthusiastically pulling him toward the room she had come from earlier.
٩( ᐖ )人( ᐛ )و
Being dragged along like this, Yukima Azuma could only smile helplessly.
She really was full of energy.
.....
Before long, the two had returned to the room where Shinomiya Kaguya was.
Fujiwara Chika pushed the door open and shouted inside:
"Kaguya-chan! Look who I ran into!"
₊·*◟(˶╹̆ꇴ╹̆˵)◜‧*・
Shinomiya Kaguya faintly smiled.
ヾ( ˃ᴗ˂ )◞ • *✰ Keikaku Doori!
After Yukima Azuma was pulled into the room,
Shinomiya Kaguya immediately put on a sufficiently surprised expression:
"Yukima-onii-san, I didn't expect to see you here."
"Nani? Onii-san?" Fujiwara Chika widened her eyes in surprise.
(´⊙ω⊙`)ᵒᵐᵍᵎᵎᵎ
Yukima Azuma simply nodded slightly at Shinomiya Kaguya.
Then, his gaze shifted to Hayasaka Ai.
At this moment, Hayasaka Ai was in the form of "Hasaka."
Speaking of which, the identity of "Hasaka" was originally created just to deal with Fujiwara Chika.
Because the two of them were extremely incompatible.
But that was something to discuss later.
Right now—
"This is the Shinomiya family's maid, Hasaka-chan!"
Fujiwara Chika naturally introduced her.
"Hasaka... You're still working as a maid at the Shinomiya household?"
Yukima Azuma looked at Hayasaka Ai, curling his lips into a knowing smile.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Hayasaka Ai's heart skipped a beat.
(ó﹏ò。)
Damn it! She had forgotten about this!
When Kaguya-sama was discussing the plan, she had been too focused on Yukima Azuma.
She completely forgot about the flaw in her identity setup!
She had told Yukima Azuma that she was a student at the prestigious all-girls academy, Felis.
And that she studied diligently every day, having to study for a full twelve hours.
She never once mentioned working as a maid for the Shinomiya family.
And in Yukima Azuma's understanding, the only maid at the Shinomiya household was—Hayasaka Ai!
Hayasaka Ai's brain instantly went into overdrive.
Finally, she came up with a barely acceptable excuse.
"I... work part-time as a maid outside of school to earn some... pocket money."
This excuse was full of holes.
A student who could attend the prestigious Felis Academy—there were extremely few who actually needed money.
Moreover, "Hasaka's" setup was that she was busy studying every single day, so where would she even find the time to work as a maid?
┬─┬ノ( º _ ºノ) ( L º _ º) L ┬─┬
┻━┻ ︵ヽ(`Д´)ノ︵ ┻━┻
'AAAAAAAAAAAA!!! Watashi no aho-baka!!! AAAAAAAAA!!!!'
Under Yukima Azuma's meaningful gaze,
Hayasaka Ai's heartbeat kept accelerating.
Was she about to be exposed?
But if she really was exposed, how would she face Yukima Azuma?
That day, when she pretended to be asleep, Yukima Azuma's deep confession echoed once again in her ears.
The usual calm and composed Hayasaka Ai had completely vanished.
"Oh, I see."
After teasing Hayasaka Ai for a bit, Yukima Azuma finally gave a slight nod, appearing to accept this flimsy excuse.
After all, Hayasaka Ai already knew she had been caught.
Even if he pretended to believe such a poorly crafted lie, it wouldn't ruin the persona she had established.
Hearing that, Hayasaka Ai let out a relieved sigh.
But at the same time, she shot a resentful glance at Yukima Azuma.
He obviously knew everything.
Yet, even though he had no intention of exposing her, he still deliberately stared at her with that thoughtful look.
He was clearly just messing with her!
(¬‿¬)
Just how much did he enjoy watching her panic?
"Oh? Yukima-kun, you know Hasaka-chan too?"
Fujiwara Chika blinked her big round eyes in curiosity.
Yukima Azuma gave a small nod.
But before he could even open his mouth—
Hayasaka Ai spoke up first.
At this moment, she looked as if her spirits had completely plummeted, lowering her head with her vacant gaze fixed on some invisible point on the floor.
Pushed to the limit by his teasing, Hayasaka Ai decided it was time for her counterattack.
"Yes, we know each other. I'm someone who was once cruelly abandoned by Azuma-kun."
Hayasaka Ai: (ಥ﹏ಥ) ...inside: (๑>•̀๑)
Fujiwara Chika: (´⊙ω⊙`)ᵒᵐᵍᵎᵎᵎ!
Shinomiya Kaguya: (⊙ _ ⊙ )!?! NANI
Yukima Azuma: (≖_≖ )
The two girls instantly froze in shock.
Yukima Azuma's lips twitched.
Alright, alright, so this was how she wanted to play it.
Seeing that no one spoke up,
Hayasaka Ai secretly chuckled to herself, then decided to twist the knife a little deeper.
(˵ ¬ᴗ¬˵)
"Having to see the person who once cast me aside... it must be awkward for you, right?"
Her voice was heavy with sorrow.
As she spoke, her tone turned more choked with emotion.
"I'm right here beside you..." A silent tear rolled down her cheek as Hayasaka Ai hastily wiped it away. "And yet, the pain still cuts deep into my heart..."
Fujiwara Chika: (∩˃o˂∩)♡!!!
Shinomiya Kaguya: ( ˶°ㅁ°) !!???
Watching Hayasaka Ai cry so tragically, like a delicate flower drenched in the rain,
The two girls were utterly stunned.
So there was such a tangled romantic past between them!?
Both of them simultaneously turned their eyes toward Yukima Azuma, eager to see how he would respond.
And then—
The moment they saw him, they gasped in alarm.
At this moment, Yukima Azuma's entire presence had plummeted to an all-time low.
He didn't shed a single tear, but just standing there, he looked like a shattered fragment that could never be whole again.
The young man bowed his head, emotions swirling in his eyes.
"There... was no other choice." His voice trembled slightly, making the air around them tense in an instant.
Like a discarded puppet, his pain wasn't overtly displayed, but just looking at him made one's heart ache.
"Because Hasaka cheating on me, we could never be together."
Following Yukima Azuma's words—
The two girls simultaneously turned their gazes toward Hayasaka Ai.
(o.O)!!!
So in the end, you were that kind of person. We wrongly placed our trust in you, Hasaka!
Hayasaka Ai: Huh??
Hayasaka Ai: ∘ ∘ ∘ ( °ヮ° ) ????
