Chapter 335

Natsume Chikage, walking in front, scanned the baseball field but did not find Zhongdao Wushi's figure.

This made him feel slightly surprised.

He thought he might encounter provocation again today.

But since there wasn't any, that was naturally for the best.

Not long after.

Natsume Chikage and Yukimura Lingyin returned to the classroom of Class 1-A.

Because Natsume Chikage had a good relationship with people, as soon as he entered the door, he attracted many classmates to greet him.

Along with him, Yukimura Lingyin, who was walking beside him, was also greeted by several people with nods.

She, who was cold by nature and didn't like this kind of small talk, just dealt with it simply and walked straight to her seat.

On the contrary, Natsume Chikage was surrounded by several classmates chatting for a long time before finally being able to break away and return to his seat.

"Good morning, Natsume-kun."

A sweet and moving greeting came from beside him.

Natsume Chikage turned his head, and what came into view was Xiyuanji Xiyuanji Qilai's cute and delicate face, as well as those bright eyes that seemed to be able to talk.

"Morning, Xiyuanji-san."

After Natsume Chikage finished speaking, he put away his school bag and prepared to get up and leave the classroom.

Xiyuanji Xiyuanji Qilai saw this and asked in surprise:

"Natsume-kun... didn't you just come back? Where are you going now?"

Natsume Chikage paused his steps slightly and explained:

"Going to the student council room."

Xiyuanji Xiyuanji Qilai blinked her big eyes and asked curiously:

"Why are you suddenly going there?"

Yukimura Lingyin turned her head, glanced at this curious baby, and substituted an explanation with slight helplessness:

"Because Senior Konoe is looking for him."

Xiyuanji Xiyuanji Qilai was even more confused:

"Senior Konoe looking for Natsume-kun early in the morning, this is..."

Natsume Chikage shook his head:

"I don't know the specific reason either."

"That's why I want to go over and see."

Xiyuanji Xiyuanji Qilai blinked:

"I see..."

And after Natsume Chikage finished speaking, he nodded slightly to indicate, and then left.

Xiyuanji Xiyuanji Qilai watched his retreating back, and couldn't help but rise a few points of curiosity and vague worry in her heart.

Yukimura Lingyin just glanced at him faintly, not thinking that anything special would happen on this trip, and then withdrew her gaze, took out draft paper from the table, and began to continue writing her new work prepared for submission, hoping to finish it as soon as possible.

Soon.

Natsume Chikage arrived at the door of the student council room and raised his hand to push open the heavy wooden door.

What came into view were seven or eight student council members inside the room.

Among those he knew, there were Vice President Hanyu Jianghui and Accountant Konoe Hitomi.

And the person who was not a student council member, besides himself, was one other person—Zhongdao Wushi.

Natsume Chikage didn't expect to see Zhongdao Wushi here.

But he had no intention of greeting him, and his gaze was cast directly toward the front of the room.

In the student council room, the main seat at the very front had always been vacant, with no one sitting there.

And on the left and right sides, Konoe Hitomi and Hanyu Jianghui were sitting respectively.

Natsume Chikage looked at Konoe Hitomi and asked:

"Hitomi, why did you call me here?"

Konoe Hitomi was still that expressionless look, her tone flat:

"Hanyu-kun, you explain it to Natsume-kun."

Hanyu Jianghui heard this, was silent for a moment, and then spoke slowly to explain:

"Because the students studying at this school mostly have extraordinary family backgrounds."

"Once a conflict arises between students, it is easy for the situation to slide toward an extreme that is difficult to control."

"This is a situation the school side is extremely unwilling to see."

"Therefore, there is an unwritten internal rule in this school."

"When both sides have a conflict that is difficult to reconcile on their own, a relatively civilized way must be adopted to solve it."

"That is, to unfold a 'gamble' that both sides recognize. The losing side must give up all pursuit of the previous incident."

"Of course, this gamble needs to be supervised and witnessed by our student council to ensure its fairness."

"And right now—it is precisely because Miss Konoe hopes that the two of you can solve the dispute in this way that you were summoned here."

Natsume Chikage was slightly surprised in his heart, clearly not expecting the school to have such hidden rules.

And Zhongdao Wushi, although he had been enrolled longer, had never heard of this rule either.

But this rule, for him at this moment, was simply a godsend opportunity!

Ever since he threatened Natsume Chikage yesterday, he felt that he was being constrained everywhere.

Those fanatical female supporters of Natsume Chikage were pointing at him in school, and even dug up his past dark history to spread!

As for the school teachers and the baseball club coach, it went without saying.

Early this morning, they jointly called him over, gave him a scolding, and warned him strictly: if he dared to threaten other students again, he would be expelled immediately.

He had been holding back a stuffy fire and resentment in his heart that had nowhere to vent.

Now, the opportunity had finally come!
