All the Heroines are my Ex-girlfriends-Chapter 232: Hayasaka Ai Lights the Fire

"This is the voting result for the extracurricular trip."

Suou Yuki spoke while handing the data sheet to Shinomiya Kaguya and Yukima Azuma.

Shuchiin's extracurricular trip destination was decided by a class vote.

The compiled data would then be sent to the student council.

And finally, the student council would make the final decision.

In other words, the president had the authority to override the students' opinions and decide directly.

That was the power structure of Shuchiin.

The student council reigned supreme.

However, normally, the president wouldn't do such a thing.

Otherwise, the next student council election would be a nightmare.

Sitting in the president's seat, Shinomiya Kaguya carefully reviewed the data sheet.

A golden chain shimmered across her chest.

It was a special piece of jewelry reserved exclusively for the president of Shuchiin.

A solid gold chain, draped across the chest, connecting both sides of the winter uniform's collar.

It symbolized the weight of Shuchiin's thousand-year tradition.

Because of this accessory,

Shinomiya Kaguya was required to wear the winter uniform blazer year-round.

"How about Paris?"

Shinomiya Kaguya asked as she looked up at Yukima Azuma.

It was the fourth most-voted option.

Reasonable enough to be considered.

Yukima Azuma thought for a moment, then bluntly stated:

"Dirty, chaotic, rats, and the French."

( ,,⩌'︿'⩌,,)

Shinomiya Kaguya nodded.

It sounded prejudiced, but in reality, it wasn't far from the truth.

She also dismissed this choice, which had more reputation than actual merit.

"Hokkaido?"

The third-place option was a famous domestic travel destination.

A snowy wonderland.

Visiting in December wasn't a bad idea.

Yukima Azuma shrugged.

"Pros: beautiful scenery. Cons: too many tourists."

¯\\_(ツ)_/¯

In recent years, the number of travelers flooding Hokkaido during winter remained high.

"Then we'll keep it as a possibility." Shinomiya Kaguya nodded. "What about Iceland?"

Recently, Iceland tourism had become a hot trend on social media.

Many bloggers had jumped on the bandwagon, posting travel content.

The engagement numbers were high.

Even Shuchiin couldn't escape the influence of internet trends.

"Poor infrastructure, mediocre scenery, no cultural or culinary value—I don't see any reason to go there."

Yukima Azuma dismissed it outright.

Iceland's infrastructure was indeed underdeveloped.

Not to mention Tokyo.

Even compared to Japan's second-tier cities, Iceland fell short.

And Japan itself only ranked average in infrastructure development.

Hearing this, Shinomiya Kaguya decisively crossed Iceland off the list.

"That leaves only the top choice—Hawaii."

This time, before Yukima Azuma could say anything,

Fujiwara Chika immediately jumped in.

✧｡٩(ˊᗜˋ )و✧*｡

"Hawaii is amazing! I spent my spring break there last year!"

"It's never cold, and we can go to the beach—let's pick Hawaii!"

Shinomiya Kaguya nodded at Fujiwara Chika.

But then, she still turned to Yukima Azuma.

"Downsides: dirty public beaches, expensive costs—but all of that can be solved with money, so it's not a problem."

Hawaii had its minor flaws.

However, for Shuchiin Academy, none of them would ever be an issue.

"Umu, then let's settle on Hawaii."

Shinomiya Kaguya made the final decision.

"Yay, Hawaii!" Fujiwara Chika cheered with both hands raised.

(੭˃ᴗ˂)੭

"That means we'll need swimsuits."

Suou Yuki, who had been silent until now, finally spoke up.

Her eyes kept glancing toward Yukima Azuma.

(˵ ¬ᴗ¬˵)

A little evil smile on her face.

Fujiwara Chika nodded in agreement.

"Oh right, I think last year's swimsuit doesn't fit me anymore."

Hearing this, Shinomiya Kaguya's gaze unconsciously drifted toward Fujiwara Chika's chest.

Then she quickly glanced at Suou Yuki.

A few veins silently appeared on her forehead.

ʰᵘʰ (ꐦ○_○)

Somehow… in a certain aspect… it felt like she had already lost.

Especially to Fujiwara Chika, this girl truelly cancer of earth!

What the hell did she eat to develop like that? This was ridiculous!

૮₍ ˶>⤙<˶ ₎ა

But for now, the "Ice Princess" part of Kaguya still held dominance.

She had no major concerns about her figure.

Just a fleeting moment of regret before returning to normal.

After finalizing the destination for the extracurricular trip,

Shinomiya Kaguya promptly reported it to the school.

Shuchiin would soon complete the necessary procedures and make arrangements for the trip.

Transportation was a no-brainer—of course, they would charter a private jet.

As for accommodations, since this was a school trip, students would be staying together.

Most likely, they would rent out an entire hotel at the destination.

"Azuma-kun, are you free after school?"

(✿..◜ᴗ◝..) ⋆˚✿˖°

Suou Yuki approached Yukima Azuma with a gentle smile.

Fujiwara Chika's eyes widened in shock.

(´⊙ω⊙`)!

Could it be—!

An invitation to go swimsuit shopping together?!

After Yukima Azuma nodded, Suou Yuki confirmed her suspicion.

"Then, would you like to come to the shopping mall with me?"

Fujiwara Chika: ヾ(｡✪ω✪｡)ｼ Waku Waku!

Swimsuit shopping was an awkward affair for girls.

Typically, they would go with friends of the same gender.

Almost no one invited a boy.

Unless their relationship had already reached the stage of being lovers.

Or at the very least, if there was some ambiguity, and the girl wanted to take things a step further.

Shinomiya Kaguya's eyes widened in disbelief.

( ˶°ㅁ°) !!

With her limited understanding of love,

this kind of invitation was practically a confession!

The Suou family's young lady… so she was that kind of person?!

What the hell?!

Recalling the information she had on Suou Yuki,

Shinomiya Kaguya felt extremely suspicious!

Could it be that this girl was here to steal her person?!

Shinomiya Kaguya: (ง︡'-'︠)ง Red alert!

Suou Yuki, sensing the stares from the two beside her, merely smiled elegantly.

Suou Yuki: (✿..◜ᴗ◝..) ⋆˚✿˖° Hihi~

Meanwhile, deep inside: (≖ᴗ≖ ✿) Hehe~

"Sure."

Yukima Azuma, however, thought nothing of it and agreed casually.

He knew Suou Yuki's little devil personality all too well.

This invitation wasn't anything serious.

Besides, he had no plans after school today anyway.

"Yukima-san, Suou-san, are you two planning to go swimsuit shopping together?"

Shinomiya Kaguya couldn't hold back her question.

At this rate, Yukima Azuma was bound to get lured in by the Suou family sooner or later.

She had to do something!

"Umu, that was the idea."

Suou Yuki admitted it without hesitation.

"You two seem quite close, huh? Swimsuit shopping is a rather personal matter."

Shinomiya Kaguya tried to invoke a sense of embarrassment in Suou Yuki.

"Well, we're childhood friends, so this is completely normal."

(*ᴗ͈ˬᴗ͈)ꕤ*.ﾟ

Suou Yuki tilted her head, feigning innocence as if she didn't understand.

Completely normal, my ass!

⁽⁽(੭ꐦ •̀Д•́ )੭*⁾⁾

Shinomiya Kaguya was speechless.

Meanwhile, Fujiwara Chika had a look of "the couple I ship is about to get married, hooray!"

( • ̀ω•́ )✧

But then, a sharp pain hit her stomach.

She suddenly thought of "Hasaka."

That love that would never reach its destination.

A love triangle that brought nothing but suffering—yet was impossible to escape!

(*꒦ິ꒳꒦ີ)

...

And so, the school day finally came to an end.

Watching Yukima Azuma and Suou Yuki walk side by side as they left,

Shinomiya Kaguya pinched the bridge of her nose—she was getting a headache.

"Kaguya-sama, is something wrong?"

( ╹ -╹)?

Hayasaka Ai, having just finished her disguise and returned to her true self, saw the scene and asked in confusion.

"What kind of person is Suou Yuki, really?"

"Not only did she make up this childhood friend relationship, but now she's even using the swimsuit shopping trick to lure in Yukima Azuma."

Hearing that, the corner of Hayasaka Ai's mouth twitched.

Could it be… that it was just a normal friend interest?

But then again, even she found it a little strange.

That boy obviously liked her, didn't he?

And now, he was being dragged away by another girl?

Was she… being NTR-ed?

( ˶°ㅁ°) !!

An idea suddenly popped into Hayasaka Ai's mind.

"Kaguya-sama, that's just one of the advantages women have. It's only natural for her to use it."

"But the Shinomiya family isn't lacking in 'weapons' of their own, right?"

Hearing that, Shinomiya Kaguya nodded thoughtfully.

That made sense.

She had been trained in these skills before.

Knowing how to smile at just the right angle,

How to create the perfect expression to capture someone's heart.

It was the art of fully utilizing a woman's beauty.

Up until now, Shinomiya Kaguya had never had a reason to use these skills.

But now… it seemed like the time had come!

Seeing how easily her Ojou-sama was being swayed, Hayasaka Ai decided to fan the flames even more.

"The Shinomiya family doesn't let others take what they want, right?"

"And Kaguya-sama is a Shinomiya. You must have some pride—don't let yourself be humiliated!"

This time, the fire within Shinomiya Kaguya ignited completely.

ᕙ( ᗒᗣᗕ )ᕗ

"Hayasaka, you're absolutely right! What should I do now?"

"There are only a few shopping malls nearby that sell swimsuits. If Kaguya-sama also wants to shop for one, accidentally running into them would be completely normal, wouldn't it?"

"Brilliant! Alright, Hayasaka, let's go!"

Shinomiya Kaguya strode out of Shuchiin with determination.

Watching her Ojou-sama's unwavering resolve, Hayasaka Ai felt a bit uneasy.

Did I just add a little too much fuel to the fire?

But on second thought…

It didn't really matter.

She had already advised Kaguya-sama countless times before.

And yet, Kaguya-sama was so stubborn about her plan to lure in Yukima Azuma.

So… might as well let things play out.

Hayasaka Ai followed Shinomiya Kaguya out of Shuchiin.

She also wanted to enjoy the show a little.

He confessed to her, and now he's off swimsuit shopping with another girl?

Hayasaka Ai could understand…

Wait.

Could I really understand that?

Either way, Hayasaka Ai decided—

She was definitely going to stir up some trouble for Yukima Azuma.

Ai to Azuma: ╭∩╮( ˶ˆᗜˆ˵ )╭∩╮
