Chapter 249
Everyone on this hot spring trip sat down in the hot spring, enjoying the water while looking with gossiping eyes at Ren Amamiya, who was sitting between Kaguya Shinomiya and Sonoko Suzuki.
The cool breeze on the mountainside blew past, dispersing some of the mist in the hot spring, making everyone soaking in it feel a hint of coolness, so they wouldn't feel uncomfortable from soaking for too long.
"Amamiya, the person you liked the most in the story you mentioned earlier is Hayasaka? Is it because of her maid attribute?"
Nagi Sanzenin asked directly with a face full of curiosity and gossip.
"I don't deny that there are many people who like the identity of a maid when watching stories, but I don't think it's entirely because of this reason."
Ren Amamiya didn't deny that the maid setting was still very attractive, but when he watched the story, liking the character Ai Hayasaka wasn't just because of her identity as a maid.
"Actually, the story Kaguya and the others are in is actually biased toward a daily comedy story. Mm, I mean the initial story that held the concept of 'whoever confesses first loses' was quite comedic."
"The story is a very cliché 'the young lady falls in love with me' story. However, because both the male and female leads were using different tricks to force the other to confess first, the comedic atmosphere of the whole story was quite strong."
"And Hayasaka was the executor caught in the middle of Kaguya's various troublesome plans, playing the role of a viewer who was always tired and always speechless. Her whole face was written with the expression 'how are these two still dating' every day, and then she worked hard to complete the various tasks assigned by Kaguya."
As he spoke, Ren Amamiya couldn't help but laugh.
"In school, she showed a gal image that was very good at socializing, while in front of Kaguya, she was a standard 'three-no' maid. Occasionally she took on the job of a tsukkomi, accumulating a lot of pressure every day because of work, and her only joy was watching videos of a hydraulic press crushing various things."
"The confrontation between the male and female leads in the story is very interesting, but sure enough, Hayasaka's story is also quite full."
Everyone listening to Ren's words looked at Ai Hayasaka at this moment; inexplicably, they developed a great interest in this maid.
At this moment, even Kaguya Shinomiya couldn't help but look at Hayasaka.
"Hayasaka, what Ren said is almost no different from your situation. But I haven't seen you watch videos of a hydraulic press crushing things for a long time recently."
"Kaguya-sama, have you forgotten? Young Master Koh has already gone to retire? Without him causing me so much pressure, the pressure I accumulate every day is not as great as it was in the past."
Ai Hayasaka reminded Kaguya-sama that there was also the matter of Koh Shinomiya.
Her biggest source of pressure in the past came from the betrayal of Kaguya-sama, and then the pressure from Koh Shinomiya's side; these reasons were the biggest causes of her daily pressure doubling.
"Plus, Kaguya-sama's personality isn't one that would like President Shirogane, so I don't have to be responsible for Kaguya-sama's tasks like in the story. Naturally, the pressure accumulated every day is within a controllable range."
"Koh Shinomiya... it was indeed the right choice to trample on his self-esteem so hard back then."
Kaguya Shinomiya only now felt how correct her actions were back then.
With one kick, all of her eldest brother's pride and self-esteem were trampled underfoot, letting him completely experience the feeling of being unable to turn things around.
One by one, she pulled out the nails her eldest brother had planted in the Shinomiya Zaibatsu, completely reused the Hayasaka family, sent all the moths within the Shinomiya Zaibatsu to prison, and completely cut off the possibility of the Shinomiya family regaining power within the Shinomiya Zaibatsu.
Ai Hayasaka also agreed with this very much.
"Young Master Koh is the synonym for rigid and stubborn in his bones. His way of doing things and style are also mainly based on unscrupulous means, seizing others' weaknesses, and stepping hard on the other party's pain points, making people unable to develop a heart of resistance against him."
"I think the psychological shadow Kaguya-sama caused him that day should make him remember that day for the rest of his life."
Every time she thought of Koh Shinomiya's back as he left, even now, Ai Hayasaka couldn't help but want to laugh.
Nagi Sanzenin, watching from the side, could roughly understand why Ren would like Hayasaka through a simple description.
Maid + dry + face + tsukkomi + hair + love, it is indeed possible to like her.
As a pure otaku, Nagi Sanzenin also felt that she would like such an interesting and cute character.
But then Nagi Sanzenin also developed a great interest in her own story.
"Then, in my story, who do you like the most?"
0 Please give flowers
"Saginomiya, I guess."
Eh?
Isumi Saginomiya, who was also curious, was stunned for a moment, and then her whole face turned red.
Relatively conservative, she was also wearing a two-piece swimsuit like Nagi Sanzenin; after all, she was a child, so it was better to wear something that looked a bit more like a child.
The light purple swimsuit made Isumi Saginomiya look like a violet, especially that shy look with a bit of happiness, like a flower bud waiting to bloom.
"Cuteness is one aspect. Even though she is afraid herself, she can bravely face it for her friends; she is always muddled, but at critical moments, she is not ambiguous at all. She can do many things for Sanzenin, and the pure friendship with Sanzenin is also a point that makes people like her."
Ren Amamiya did not spare his words in stating the reasons why he liked her.
But the more she listened, the more shy Isumi Saginomiya became, especially when she heard Ren seemed to be praising her to the heavens.
"Actually, it's not just Saginomiya."
"When Sanzenin faces temptation, she can choose to give up for her butler; her personality is a bit willful, but many times she is just putting on a brave front; she has a bit of a sharp tongue, but she is a very kind girl."
"Miss Aizawa is also the same, always taking good care of her younger siblings. When Sanzenin is feeling down, she can always notice it at the first moment, and then use her own way to help Sanzenin walk out of her low mood. She is a very good sister."
"Ran and Sonoko are also the same, always able to see each other's thoughts, and that friendship is also very pure. When Ran has a problem, Sonoko can always stand behind Ran, and the same goes for Ran."
"Fujiwara also values her relationship with Kaguya very much, and she will speak out directly when facing unfair things. Although she is always smiling and likes to cheat when playing games, she is still a senior who takes good care of her juniors."
"And Miss Maria. In order to let Sanzenin grow up better, she actively chose to leave, a sacrificial love completely for Sanzenin, and her usual care for Sanzenin. It should be said, she is simply Mother Maria."
"Facing all of you like this, actually, I have always liked you."
