Chapter 934
Thus, Rin Tsukishima also suppressed the reluctance in her heart and said goodbye politely:
"Natsume-kun, see you at school tomorrow."
Natsume Chikage nodded to everyone.
"Mm, goodbye."
After Natsume Chikage's slender figure disappeared around the corner of the corridor.
Chizuru Ando suddenly seemed to remember something important, her eyes lit up, and a surge of excitement rose in her heart.
She knew where Natsume Chikage planned to go next.
At this time, she naturally didn't plan to stay at school anymore.
"That... Ruri-chan, Reisa-chan, I suddenly remembered I have something to do today, so I have to go back first!"
Natsume Ruri and Reisa Kaga did not notice anything unusual and responded as usual.
"Mm-hmm, take care on the road."
"Goodbye, Chizuru."
Thus, Chizuru Ando also turned and left quickly, following the direction Natsume Chikage left, quietly following behind, with a small plan of "creating a chance encounter" in her heart.
As for Rin Tsukishima, she turned her head to look at Natsume Ruri and Reisa Kaga beside her, a gentle and kind older-sister-style smile reappearing on her face, and suggested softly:
"Ruri-chan, Reisa-chan, do you have any other arrangements later?"
"If you have nothing to do, would you like to go around the neighborhood with me and have something to drink? I know there is a very good dessert shop nearby."
Natsume Ruri blinked, pretending not to see through the other's "sinister intention" of "approaching the sister to plot against the brother", and an innocent and happy smile appeared on her face.
"Mm-hmm! Okay!"
Reisa Kaga really didn't see anything, just felt that it was very happy to be able to play with this beautiful and amazing senior, and nodded shyly and excitedly.
"O-okay, Rin-nee-san."
After leaving Seishin Academy, the three walked on the tree-lined streets nearby.
Rin Tsukishima's gaze inadvertently fell on the two exquisite purple bracelets on Natsume Ruri's slender wrists.
She offered praise at the right time.
"Ruri-chan, the two purple bracelets you are wearing have a very unique style, and the color is also beautiful. Which shop did you buy them at?"
Natsume Ruri, upon hearing this, happily raised her wrists and shook them, and the small pendants on the bracelets made a faint, crisp sound.
"I bought them at a very large general supermarket! Brother specifically helped me pick them out at the time, both of them!"
Her tone was filled with the pride of being pampered by her brother.
Rin Tsukishima nodded with a smile, her tone sincere.
"It seems it's really just as others say. Natsume-kun, he really dotes on you, Ruri-chan."
Natsume Ruri's gaze also fell on Rin Tsukishima's fair wrists—she was wearing a white jasmine-style bracelet with a simple yet exceptionally elegant design.
She pointed at it curiously.
"Rin-nee-san, the one on your hand is also very beautiful, which jewelry store did you buy it at? The style is so special."
Rin Tsukishima subconsciously stroked the bracelet on her wrist gently with her other hand, and a warm smile mixed with sweetness and nostalgia appeared on her face involuntarily.
Her voice softened a bit involuntarily.
"This one... it was also bought at a jewelry store. However, what's special is that it was also your brother... Natsume-kun, who specifically picked it out for me back then."
The moment she heard this sentence.
Natsume Ruri's large eyes, which had been maintaining an innocent expression, suddenly widened.
Immediately after, she narrowed her eyes rapidly, her long eyelashes covering the sharp light that flashed across the bottom of her eyes.
She only felt that this Rin-nee-san... was indeed a "master" not to be underestimated.
To be able to "trick" her idiot brother, who was a bit slow in terms of feelings, into personally picking out and gifting a bracelet...
It seems that among all the older sisters who were "eyeing" her brother, this Rin-nee-san was probably the one running at the very front.
And Reisa Kaga, who was listening to Rin Tsukishima's words from the side, froze instantly.
She slowly lowered her head, her gaze fixed on the tips of her shoes, and a surge of indescribable sourness and disappointment welled up in her heart.
Now... she couldn't understand the relationship between Rin-nee-san and Natsume-niisan.
Were they... "more than friends, less than lovers"?
Or... were they actually already secretly dating?
Otherwise, how could Natsume-niisan... even give such an intimate gift as a bracelet?
Woo-woo~ It seems she is still too young; if only she were a few years older, that would be great...
