Chapter 299

I advise you, stay away from Senior Yue Dao!

Private Moonlight Academy.

Cherry blossom path.

Pink and white cherry petals fell rustling in the morning breeze.

Kondo Miki with golden hair and Akita Sana with a cute appearance and twin tails were walking side by side.

Akita Sana's gaze soon caught the slender figure walking alone ahead.

Her eyes lit up, and she immediately grabbed her friend's arm excitedly.

"Miki, it's Natsume-kun!"

"Let's go over and say hello."

Kondo Miki had no intention of talking to Natsume Chikage, but couldn't resist Akita Sana's dragging, and stumbled over.

"Natsume-kun, good morning!" Akita Sana bloomed with a bright smile, revealing her iconic small tiger teeth.

"Morning." Kondo Miki turned her gaze away and spat out the greeting in a flat tone.

Natsume Chikage was slightly startled, then nodded politely.

"Morning, classmate Kondo, Ms. Akita."

Getting a response, Akita Sana was even happier, jumping with joy:

"Natsume-kun, congratulations on winning your shogi match!"

Natsume Chikage nodded.

"Thank you."

Akita Sana pressed her advantage, hands clasped together, eyes shining with anticipation:

"Since you won the match, how about we find some time today to celebrate together?"

Kondo Miki frowned slightly and immediately interrupted:

"Natsume-kun still has to work part-time, don't bother others!"

Akita Sana was stunned and turned to look at Natsume Chikage:

"Eh? Natsume-kun, are you working part-time today?"

Natsume Chikage confirmed:

"Yes."

Akita Sana's shoulders slumped, feeling very regretful:

"I see..."

But she quickly cheered up again, her eyes rolled, and she asked with a giggle:

"Since this time doesn't work, how about next time?"

Kondo Miki glanced at her speechlessly, too lazy to pay attention to this infatuated behavior.

However, deep down, she didn't want her best friend to have too much involvement with Natsume Chikage, who had no future.

So she didn't give Natsume Chikage a chance to reply.

Instead, she took this opportunity to turn the topic to what she was concerned about.

"Natsume-kun," Kondo Miki's tone became serious, "I remember that Senior Yue Dao confessed to you recently, and after that, it seems she hasn't kept her distance from you, right?"

Natsume Chikage was silent for a moment.

He knew that both he and Yue Dao Lin were quite noticeable in school, and if they were often together, they would inevitably attract attention.

"Yes," he admitted frankly, "what's wrong?"

Kondo Miki's voice lowered a bit, her cold and proud face carrying a clear warning:

"I advise you, stay away from Senior Yue Dao."

"You were right to refuse her confession before."

"Because she has... many 'excellent' pursuers around her. If you have too much contact with her, those people will never give you a good look."

"If you want to spend your high school life peacefully, you'd better remember these words!"

Akita Sana heard this topic and immediately got spirited, thinking her best friend was assisting her, and nodded repeatedly:

"Yes, yes, yes! Senior Yue Dao has many pursuers, Natsume-kun, if you get too close, you will really play with fire~"

"And, compared to Senior Yue Dao who will bring you trouble, it's better to pay more attention to those around you... After all, there are many excellent girls around you too~"

She said, winking her left eye playfully, giving a wink full of suggestive meaning.

Kondo Miki looked at her like this, her brows furrowed even tighter.

She didn't say anything more, reached out and grabbed the infatuated girl who was still winking, and forcibly dragged her away from the scene.

Natsume Chikage didn't take the two's words to heart too much.

Before the manuscript fee was in hand, life was still tight.

His sister's longing for the future yesterday made him more determined to focus on "making money".

Moreover, he still had the goal of "collecting special equipment".

He really didn't have extra energy to put into these adolescent entanglements.

As for Yue Dao Lin's pursuers...

Currently, the only one he clearly perceived seemed to be Senior Yasui?

But Senior Yasui looked quite rational and didn't have the aggressiveness described by Kondo Miki.

Just at this moment—

From the left, a sharp whistle that tore through the air suddenly came!

Thanks to his enhanced physique, Natsume Chikage's five senses were far beyond ordinary people.

The moment the sound entered his ears, he had already turned his head sharply.

In his line of sight, a baseball was flying straight towards his face at an astonishing speed!
