Chương 45: Horikita Suzune, could she be a succubus?!

!

"If we're talking about pretending to be a couple, wouldn't Hirata-kun be a better fit?"

And given his kind-hearted nature, he probably won't refuse you, right?

Upon hearing what Yang Cheng said, Karuizawa Kei nervously twirled her hands and hesitated before expressing her concerns.

"I see. Indeed, Hirata-kun's personality can be quite troublesome at times."

But Karuizawa-kun, don't you trust me too much? Haven't you considered this?

What if I not only don't help, but I also expose your past, causing you to suffer from school bullying again?

Yang Cheng could clearly see that when he said those words, Karuizawa Kei's body trembled uncontrollably, and her face was filled with panic, completely losing her usual hot and spoiled demeanor.

Yes, before, she only thought of Yang Cheng, who was more assertive than Hirata and more suitable to protect her.

However, they completely overlooked the issue of character.

Hirata's kind-hearted nature goes without saying, and it's definitely a guarantee of good character.

But as for Yang Cheng... to be honest, Karuizawa doesn't know much about him.

Although the other person is not as aloof as Horikita-san, nor as inconspicuous as Ayanokouji-san, they also seem to be someone who exists on the fringes of the class.

If I had to put it into words, Harumaru Karuizawa's vibe is probably a combination of Horikita Suzune and Ayanokouji, with a touch of mystery along with it...

Looking at Karuizawa Megumi, whose body was trembling and whose face was turning pale, she saw her.

Yang Cheng understood that the other person was probably reminded of the psychological trauma of being bullied at school because of his words.

So after hesitating for a moment, he finally spoke up: "I was just joking. I won't talk to anyone else about your past."

And I've decided to help you with your request.

What does it mean to be in heaven or hell in a single thought? Karuizawa Kei is now experiencing it firsthand.

One second she was thinking, what if Yang Cheng is a scumbag? Will she have to face that unbearable past again?

But to everyone's surprise, Yang Cheng not only said he wouldn't reveal her secret, but also offered to help her.

Having experienced a rollercoaster of emotions, from hell to heaven, Karuizawa Megumi quickly looked at Yosei in front of her and said with gratitude, "Yosei-kun, thank you so much."

Don't worry, as long as we show our relationship in front of other classmates, I'll keep my distance from you in private.

"And I'll take responsibility for explaining things to Horikita-san; I'll make sure she doesn't misunderstand you."

Yang Cheng had been wondering why Karuizawa Kei kept mentioning Horikita Suzune.

Kikyo Kushida has a personal grudge against Suzune Horikita, so he talks about her all the time, which is understandable to Yosei.

Karuizawa Megumi and Horikita Suzune probably don't have much interaction, right?

What else could Horikita Suzune misunderstand? Could Karuizawa Megumi have some kind of connection with Horikita Suzune?

No, this world of the True Teachings is a little different from what he knows.

Could it be that Horikita Suzune is a succubus who is attractive to both men and women in this world?

"Karuizawa-san, are you and Horikita Suzune in that kind of relationship?"

Karuizawa Megumi: "(///▽///), Harumaru-kun, what nonsense are you talking about? How could I possibly be that kind of person!"

Seeing Yang Cheng's strange expression, Karuizawa Kei instantly understood the meaning behind Yang Cheng's words and retorted somewhat angrily.

Although Karuizawa Kei was bullied at school in the past, she would never be a lesbian!

"If we pretend to be a couple, what are you going to explain to Horikita Suzune?"

Karuizawa Megumi: "(´･Д･)" Isn't Harumaru in love with Horikita, and even pursuing her?

Yang Cheng: "(･_･; What the hell is this? Where did these rumors come from? I don't know anything about them!" Seeing Yang Cheng's genuinely surprised expression, Karuizawa Kei explained the origin of the rumor. After understanding the whole story, Yang Cheng was speechless and simply covered his face with his hands. He never expected that his outburst would be misinterpreted in this way by the people in Class D. And now he understands why he was targeted by Kikyo Kushida. So this guy also thought he was dating Suzune, and that's how he found out something from her. If everyone in Class D misunderstood, then surely Horikita Suzune wouldn't have misunderstood too, right? I doubt it. After all, Horikita Suzune is so oblivious, and besides chasing after her brother, she doesn't really care about anything else. So she probably won't overthink it... After achieving her goal, Karuizawa Kei and Harumasa were much more relaxed with each other than before. Since the other party already knew about her past, she didn't need to pretend in front of him. Furthermore, because Yang Cheng initially liked Horikita Suzune, and he had made that kind of request, she felt a certain sense of guilt. But now it's all good. It turns out it was all a misunderstanding, so I don't have to worry about letting Horikita Suzune down anymore. To thank Yang Cheng for his help, Karuizawa Kei insisted on paying the bill when it was time to settle the bill. But when she saw the bill, she was immediately embarrassed. Karuizawa Kei was also one of the people in Class D who initially squandered their personal points the most. To make ends meet on campus, she even borrowed some personal credits from a friend yesterday. Because she felt it was a bit much to ask Yang Cheng for help, she invited him to a rather upscale pastry shop. Having just finished getting things done, a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders, which led to a voracious appetite, resulting in the current bill..." Let me do it. Since you're in a relationship, the man should be a gentleman." Seemingly noticing Karuizawa Megumi's predicament, Yang Cheng smiled and readily completed the checkout process." Yang Cheng, I'm really sorry, I'll pay back the personal points I owe you as soon as possible by working part-time." When they parted, Karuizawa Kei had bowed to Harumaru countless times in apology. After all, today's situation was quite frustrating for her. When you ask someone for a favor and invite them to a high-end place, you find yourself short of money when it comes time to pay the bill, and end up paying for the person who asked you to. Karuizawa Kei knew very well that Harumasa had only said those things to give her face in front of the shop assistants. Even if they were a real couple, in Japan, dates usually involve splitting the bill (going Dutch)." Don't worry too much, Karuizawa-kun. Next time we go out together, you can treat us." Here's something else for you. I'd also like to ask Karuizawa-kun for a favor, and this matter would actually be beneficial to you as well. Looking at the notebook that Yang Cheng handed over, Karuizawa Kei also reached out and took it with a puzzled expression.
