"It must be some kind of special fate. Why does everything I do at school today seem to be related to her?"
Luo Chen touched the tip of his nose.
Well, the shogi club has her. After school, Totsuka Saika asked him for help, also to deal with Miura Yumiko. Now, he's run into Miura Yumiko again.
Luo Chen took out his phone and checked the calendar.
10 month 28 day.
Great, today we can change our name to Miura Hibi.
Luo Chen wasn't a particularly curious person, but when he pretended not to see it and was about to turn around and leave...
Miura Yumiko, who was squatting down, raised her head.
She even reached out and wiped away her tears.
Luo Chen was taken aback.
Cried?
Just as he was dawdling, Miura Yumiko's gaze fell upon him. When she saw him, her expression froze, her pupils dilated, and she frantically smeared something on her face and eyes.
"Sigh, we can't leave now."
Luo Chen sighed softly.
Sure enough, the next moment, Miura Yumiko ran over quickly, glaring at him with some shame and indignation, and asked, "What did you see just now?"
"I didn't see anything." Luo Chen closed his eyes.
"Really?" Yumiko Miura didn't believe it.
Luo Chen nodded: "After all, I'm blind."
"you……"
Yumiko Miura was annoyed by Luo Chen's nonsense, but also found it somewhat amusing. She clenched her fist and muttered under her breath, "Transfer student, what a coincidence. You weren't following me on purpose, were you?"
"Hey~!"
Luo Chen opened his eyes helplessly and said, "What kind of daydream are you having? Why would I follow you if I had nothing better to do? As the student council president and the young master of the JS Research Institute, I'm very busy."
Hearing this, Miura Yumiko became even angrier, gritting her teeth and glaring resentfully at Luo Chen: "What do you mean? What do you mean? You're clearly a top-level professional eighth-dan Go player. You must have been secretly laughing at me for being so smug when you saw me provoking you, right? Laughing at my overestimation of myself?"
Luo Chen shrugged, asking instead of answering, "Is it my fault? For no reason at all, you made me bully a little seedling like you. I'm also very troubled, okay? Besides, why did you have to provoke me?"
"It's all your fault!"
Miura Yumiko didn't know why, but usually, she would only let go of her inner strength when she was alone, and become almost a completely different person.
However, he couldn't hold back at all in front of Luo Chen today.
She sneered angrily, "I clearly invited you to join the swimming club beforehand, but what did you do? First, you used the excuse that you had already joined the shogi club to refuse, and then you joined the service club. What do you mean by that? Are you insulting me? What I hate most is being deceived!!"
Luo Chen: "???"
So that was the trigger?
"This is the first time I've been so blatantly rejected, and then completely played for a fool! You bastard!" Miura Yumiko continued to vent her frustration.
Luo Chen took a half step back, carefully examined Miura Yumiko, and then the strange feeling in his heart disappeared.
If it were Yumiko Miura, it would seem quite normal for her to get angry over something like this.
"what are you doing?"
Suddenly being scrutinized, Miura Yumiko felt inexplicably uneasy. She hugged (Li Liaohao)'s shoulder and took two steps back, glaring fiercely at Luo Chen.
"It's nothing, it's just..." Luo Chen thought for a moment about how to say it, and after a moment of contemplation, he spoke again, "Perhaps you should learn more about interpersonal skills."
"What?" Miura Yumiko found the question ridiculous, turned her head away, and asked coldly, "Do you, a transfer student, really think you have more friends than I do?"
"Of course not, but are you really sure that all your friends are happy when they're dating you?"
"Miura-kun, you are too subjective in your interpersonal relationships, and you are too presumptuous. At least regarding the swimming club, I can tell you clearly that I just don't like that club. As for you, I still like you very much."
Luo Chen shrugged and said, "Level."
"Baka! Baka!"
Yumiko Miura shuddered, feeling a sudden, inexplicable panic. She snapped, her face hardening, "What do you mean, 'like'? What nonsense are you spouting, transfer student!"

P.S.: Here's an additional picture that should have been posted in the previous chapter. It features Iino Miko (up).
Chapter 144 As expected, Miura-kun is surprisingly cute!
"Oh, sorry, I misspoke."
Luo Chen shrugged, offered a perfunctory apology, and then changed his tune, "In short, I swear that my rejection of you and my decision to join the Service Department was not intended to insult or trick you."
"If you firmly believe that I am insulting you and playing you, fine, then so be it. There's no point in saying anything more to someone who is hopelessly narcissistic."
I thought that with Miura Yumiko's proud self-esteem, her arrogant personality, and most importantly, her social habits that she had been accustomed to for more than ten years and her irritable temper, I would understand why he said that.
She'll definitely explode on the spot!
Unexpectedly, Miura Yumiko did not react at all this time. She just glared at him fiercely with her cold eyes, filled with displeasure and gritted teeth.
Luo Chen smiled inwardly.
In that case, it seems there's still hope. If some things are discussed openly and Miura Yumiko changes her ways, she will definitely become an outstanding and attractive girl.
After all, she is already very beautiful and has a great figure, which are all big pluses.
"I'm sorry, some of what I said might have been a bit harsh, but Miura-kun, if I didn't say it, probably no one else would have said these things to you, right?"
"I don't think you'd like a life where all you do is flatter and fawn over me. Even if you feel a sense of novelty and accomplishment at first, won't you get tired of it after a while?"
Luo Chen took a handkerchief out of his pocket.
Actually, this handkerchief was prepared for me by my own apprentice, Hinatsuru.
Since Hinatsuru Ai moved into the JS Research Institute, the task of washing his clothes has become her responsibility. So every time Luo Chen puts on his new, dried school uniform, he finds an extra handkerchief in his pocket.
An extremely virtuous and kind apprentice.
I can't imagine how virtuous Lady Hinatsuru will become, given how well this girl, Ai, has been taught.
"what are you doing?"
Staring at the offered handkerchief, Yumiko Miura took a step back.
"Wipe your tears. Also, your face is almost covered in smears like a little kitten. If other people see Miura Yumiko like this, it will be very embarrassing, won't it?"
Luo Chen handed the handkerchief forward again.
Yumiko Miura remained silent for a moment, then did not refuse again. She took Luo Chen's handkerchief, wiped her tears, and then wiped her face.
"so cute."
Luo Chen gestured to Miura Yumiko with his hand, indicating a picture frame. After praising her, he smiled and said, "You don't need to return the handkerchief. I still need to go to the market to buy groceries. Goodbye."
Yumiko Miura clutched the used handkerchief tightly in her hand and called out as Luo Chen was about to walk out of the alley, "Hey! You bastard!"
Luo Chen: "?"
"Is what you said true?"
Yumiko Miura clenched her fists tightly.
"Of course!"
Luo Chen shrugged, unsuspecting.
Miura Yumiko's voice suddenly lowered as she said, "Then, can we be friends? Like you said, friends who only tell the truth..."
"what?"
To be honest, Luo Chen had heard clearly, but he found Miura Yumiko unexpectedly cute in this state, so he deliberately asked again.
"Idiot! It's so noisy!"
Yumiko Miura's face burned red, turning bright red. Given her proud and arrogant personality, this was already her limit. She turned around and hurriedly tried to escape this deadly place.
Luo Chen crossed his arms and couldn't help but chuckle, "Sure, since we're friends now, I'll just call you Yumiko from now on."
"Insanity!"
Yumiko Miura glared at Luo Chen, then turned and ran even faster, like a rabbit, looking utterly disheveled.
"As expected, Miura-san is surprisingly cute."
Luo Chen smiled, and without wasting any more time, quickly went to the market.
Grocery shopping!
