Anime Crossover: About How I Spoiled an Angel

It seemed that even if you didn't hear clearly, you could still see something in her eyes.

"What I just said... was that I like you~"

Looking directly into Su Qing's eyes without any hesitation, Mahiru's heart was pounding fiercely against her chest.

Wind can fuel a fire.

Therefore, even the smallest flame will eventually turn into a raging fire.

"Didn't I say I'd answer again? Well, look me in the eye, you should have guessed it beforehand, right?"

Shining a mischievous smile at Su Qing, Mahiru took several steps forward as if fleeing.

He took a few breaths, slightly out of breath.

The girl suddenly turned around and flashed a bright smile.

The orange-yellow painting naturally became her backdrop at this moment.

Just don't know why.

Su Qing suddenly found the painting beautiful again.

Now he has realized it.

Some things, even with his extraordinary memory.

It is also destined to be impossible to fully back up.

"What are you standing there for? Let's go home!"

Jingle bell——

Jingle bell——

A crisp, melodious sound lingered in the wind.

That's—[the wind chimes of home]

Take a deep breath.

Su Qing strode forward, skillfully placing the soft hand in hers. Her voice, like the orange-red sunset, was calm and serene yet bright, "The wind is picking up again... I'll have to hold your hand on the way back."

"Of course."

Suppressing the flutter in her heart, Mahiru nodded.

The two of them continued walking.

at the same time.

The clouds drifted across the orange sky.

The ground is covered with their shadows.

and so.

The shadows of the two were stretched very long in that instant.

……

PS:

After the Ministry of Revenue's commission is completed, they will try to arrange for Mahiru and Su Qing to be together.

I'll start writing Yukino's storyline tomorrow.

If you have any questions, you can turn to Chapter 207 for comments or join the group to ask.

Chapter 233 The Skilled Hunter

?

Monday, sunny.

As agreed with Mahiru, Su Qing finished her morning run early this morning and sat at home waiting for her arrival.

Unsurprisingly.

Mahiru brought him a mainland-style breakfast again today—meat buns, sesame balls, and soy milk.

Although Su Qing told Zhen Zhou that there was no need to think about these things.

In fact, he could eat anything she made with a smile.

Mahiru simply nodded perfunctorily, then asked expectantly, "Is it good?"

If the answer wasn't good, based on Su Qing's understanding of Mahiru, the girl probably wouldn't show anything unusual on her face, but would just try again in private where he couldn't see her.

But if the answer is "delicious," Mahiru will probably show a childlike joyful smile and then start thinking about a new breakfast.

"delicious."

The rich aroma of meat blends with the fragrance of scallions and the subtle wheat scent of the dough. Especially when it's fresh out of the oven, the steaming hot air accelerates the random movement of molecules, making the aroma even more enticing.

and so.

Su Qing answered while chewing the meat bun in her mouth.

"It's still early, no rush to go to school. So swallow this before you speak, or I won't cook for you again."

Upon discovering that Su Qing had such a bad habit, Zhen Zhou straightened her back, tightened her little face, and seriously criticized Su Qing for this bad behavior.

"Will doing these things take a lot of time?"

After swallowing the meat bun in her mouth completely, Su Qing asked again.

"It might be a little difficult the first time you learn it. But many things on the island are actually similar to those on the mainland, so I pick it up very quickly."

[Are you worried about me?]

Hearing the implied meaning in her words, Mahiru couldn't help but feel a sweet warmth in her heart.

She knew what Su Qing was worried about, and with a smile, she patiently explained.

"I see." After finishing the last few bites of the meat bun, Su Qing finally chose to believe Mahiru's explanation. "I understand. But you have to take back what you just said."

"What are you talking about?"

Mahiru asked the question knowingly, her voice somewhat cheerful.

Su Qing glanced helplessly at Mahiru, "'I won't cook for you anymore'."

"Huh? Oh, that's what it is."

Mahiru made a sound of sudden realization, then put her index finger to her lips, half-closed one eye, and gave a cute expression.

"Well then...we'll see how you do!"

"Another performance?" Su Qing asked with a smile.

"Who gave you the bad habit of talking while eating? You need to change it if you don't want something terrible to happen."

Noticing that Su Qing had almost finished eating the breakfast she brought, Mahiru, out of concern, asked her every day.

"You should be full, right? If you're not full... I actually have some more."

"Don't you know my appetite?" Su Qing shook her head. "But if you're not going to eat it, I can take it to school and eat it there."

"Lunch?" Mahiru immediately became wary.

"No. I eat during the morning break if I get hungry."

Mahiru's current wary expression really makes her look like a little hedgehog.

—A cute little hedgehog with a soft belly.

Noticing the smile in Su Qing's eyes, Mahiru could roughly tell what he was thinking.

[They're definitely comparing me to some weird thing again!]

"That's good. But I'd like to know what you usually eat for lunch?"

Mahiru gave me a look that seemed to say, "You absolutely have to tell me the truth." She really seemed to want to know.

"Bread from the cafeteria or the school convenience store. Those are probably the only options."

Su Qing told him the truth.

"Really? That makes sense."

Mahiru nodded, pretending not to care.

In reality, he had already started a grand scheme in his mind.

[There's more than one option, you idiot.]

[Soon, I'll add the "bento" option to your menu...]

The bento boxes for islanders are usually prepared by their mothers or wives/girlfriends, so they are generally considered to have special significance.

Of course, Mahiru had considered it.

If I had taken the opportunity to suggest that I take charge of Su Qing's lunchboxes from now on, he would most likely have readily agreed.

But Mahiru didn't want that.

This is a despicable tactic.

She prefers to see it as the fruit of victory.

Yes.

Mahiru finally made up her mind to confess.

If happiness truly exists in this world, then it has already appeared beside me.

If I don't hold on tight with all my might, it will eventually leave me.

This is the girl's "story of happiness".

A confession shouldn't be a hasty charge; that will only lead to a clumsy fall.

The true essence of confessing one's feelings lies in letting things flow naturally.

Therefore, she still needs some time to prepare.

A cunning glint flashed in Mahiru's eyes.

Poor Su Qing was still cleaning up the mess after breakfast, completely unaware that he had quietly fallen into the trap of a little fox named [Mahiru].

"There's still plenty of time before school starts. You've just finished eating, so sit down and rest for a while. I'll pack the rest of the buns for you in a box when we leave."

After glancing at the time, the little fox said this to its prey.

"Okay, whatever you say."

After nodding slightly in agreement, Su Qing suddenly slapped her thigh, looked at Mahiru with a smile, and invited, "So... how about lying down for a while like last time?"

"Hey...but I'm not sleepy today..."

She blinked rapidly and spoke instinctively.

"Didn't you want me to do my best? Look, when it comes to actually doing well, you don't give me a chance."

Su Qing made a helpless expression that said, "See? I knew it," which made Mahiru's heart itch with envy.

That's a terrible attempt to provoke me!

Prey is prey!

How could the clever and witty little fox, Mahiru, fall for such an obvious scheme?

The voice just fell.

"Since you've put it that way... I'll definitely give you a chance..."

Mahiru put on an expression that said, "Okay, you're the one who said it, I didn't," as if everything was perfectly natural.

It would have been even more convincing if she hadn't been lying on Su Qing's lap while talking.

"By the way, didn't you say a few days ago that you wanted to try whether girls could replenish their energy with a lap pillow? What happened?"

After sensing the oppressive feeling coming from somewhere, Su Qing suddenly asked.

"Aido...Aido...."

What kind of girl uses a lap pillow to replenish her energy?
