When Mr. Su Rui held Kaguya Shinomiya in his arms, they were originally chatting happily, but then the girls, who Mr. Su Rui thought wouldn't notice them there, all turned their heads to look in their direction as if an alarm had gone off.
Kaguya Shinomiya, held in Mr. Su Rui’s arms, immediately cowered in fright, and Mr. Su Rui gently soothed her by her waist.
Then, looking at the girls who were silently watching them, Mr. Su Rui asked in confusion:
“What’s wrong? Weren’t you all chatting happily? Did I interrupt you?”
“If you could focus your attention on other things, I could indeed chat in peace.”
Shirai Kuroko said irritably, glanced at Kiri Eda next to her, and instantly teleported to sit beside Mr. Su Rui.
“I just looked away for a moment, and you’re already hugging another girl.”
“It should have been my turn first, right? I’ve been waiting for you to come back for a long time. Now, you should hug me first.”
Kiri Eda also came in front of Mr. Su Rui, her golden eyes staring intently at Mr. Su Rui, seemingly not caring much about Kaguya Shinomiya in Mr. Su Rui’s arms.
Misaka Mikoto looked at the scene before her with some surprise and complexity, and asked Yotsuya Miko beside her:
“Is this how they usually interact with Mr. Su Rui?”
“…” But Yotsuya Miko beside her didn’t answer. Misaka Mikoto turned her head and saw that this girl was also looking at Mr. Su Rui, with envy in her eyes for the girls who could get close to Mr. Su Rui.
It seemed that getting along with Mr. Su Rui might not be so smooth in the future. Misaka Mikoto worried about what would happen if she invited Mr. Su Rui for a match and disturbed the other girls, especially with so many girls eyeing him.
However, seeing Mr. Su Rui’s somewhat troubled expression, though he didn’t show anything, Misaka Mikoto immediately recalled what she had agreed upon with Mr. Su Rui earlier and waved, greeting him:
“Mr. Su Rui! Didn’t we agree to have a good fight? Come over quickly!”
“I know.”
Mr. Su Rui nodded, got up from the girls’ encirclement, and secretly pinched Kaguya Shinomiya’s waist.
He had indeed neglected this girl, who was his fiancée from the very beginning, so Mr. Su Rui thought he should compensate Kaguya Shinomiya well.
Using spiritual power, he quietly transmitted his voice into Kaguya Shinomiya’s ear:
“I’ll come find you tonight. Don’t go to sleep too early.”
Then, without looking at the girl’s already flushed cheeks, Mr. Su Rui walked directly towards Misaka Mikoto below.
And Kaguya Shinomiya, noticing that the surrounding girls seemed to have not heard what Mr. Su Rui said to her, a look of understanding flashed in her eyes.
In other words, Mr. Su Rui used a method that only allowed her to hear the sound.
A hint of suppressed joy flashed in her eyes, but Kaguya Shinomiya did not immediately turn back to ask Hayasaka Ai for advice. Instead, she continued to sit in the spot where Mr. Su Rui had just been, watching Mr. Su Rui and Misaka Mikoto below.
At this moment, she had to act natural, otherwise, if the other girls noticed something amiss, she might not be able to spend time with Mr. Su Rui.
Suppressing her joy, Kaguya Shinomiya looked at the girls around her:
“Aren’t you going to sit down and enjoy Mr. Su Rui’s performance together?”
“What’s there to see? Mr. Su Rui will definitely win anyway.” This was Kiri Eda, but although the girl snorted arrogantly, she still sat down, intending to watch the upcoming match and get to know the new Misaka Mikoto.
“My sister is also very strong, though there should still be some gap between her and Mr. Su Rui.”
Shirai Kuroko mumbled softly, sitting down somewhat nervously, unsure for a moment who to support.
If Mr. Su Rui won, she could celebrate with him and have Mr. Su Rui treat them to a good meal with her sister… Of course, it wasn’t that Mr. Su Rui didn’t usually feed her well, it was just an excuse to celebrate.
If Mr. Su Rui lost… would he show a sad expression?
The thought of Mr. Su Rui’s handsome face possibly showing disappointment or even tears due to defeat made Shirai Kuroko’s heart skip a beat, as if someone had gripped her heart, making it temporarily difficult to breathe.
When she realized it, touching her burning cheeks, Shirai Kuroko murmured softly:
“I feel like Mr. Su Rui like that would also be quite nice.”
And she could also take advantage of the opportunity to comfort him and get closer to Mr. Su Rui.
Having weighed the pros and cons, Shirai Kuroko immediately staunchly supported Misaka Mikoto, waving her arms and cheering for Misaka Mikoto:
“Sister, go for it! You must win!”
“Oh~ I’ll win!”
Misaka Mikoto responded cheerfully, then gave Shirai Kuroko a thumbs-up from the stands.
And Mr. Su Rui looked at the interaction between Misaka Mikoto and Shirai Kuroko with a somewhat complex expression.
Overall, Mr. Su Rui was smiling, because the girls’ interactions were indeed very interesting and heartwarming.
But Misaka Mikoto’s “I’ll win” reminded Mr. Su Rui of some stories.
The last person who said something like “I’ll win” was directly cut in half at the waist.
Although Mr. Su Rui would certainly not do such a cruel thing to Misaka Mikoto, wasn't this a declaration of certain defeat?
Trying his best to control his smile so it wouldn’t look too bad, Mr. Su Rui looked at Misaka Mikoto opposite him, who had finished her victory declaration and was now looking at him:
“Are you ready? I’m going to start.”
“Of course, come at me head-on!”
Hearing Misaka Mikoto’s voice, Mr. Su Rui almost couldn’t help but laugh out loud, but he still gave Misaka Mikoto a serious response.
A golden Sun Spear appeared in his hand and was directly thrown by Mr. Su Rui towards Misaka Mikoto in front of him.
The girl, with rich combat experience, immediately rolled to dodge Mr. Su Rui’s Sun Spear, and then returned the favor with a thunderbolt towards Mr. Su Rui.
Because the training ground was made of a material similar to a rubber track, to prevent injuries during training, Misaka Mikoto couldn’t use her electromagnetic force to construct an iron sand sword here.
In Mr. Su Rui’s opinion, that was actually a modified chainsaw sword.
“Although the terrain isn’t very advantageous for me, I’m not easy to deal with!”
Watching Mr. Su Rui quickly approach her, Misaka Mikoto waved her hand, using electromagnetic force to directly lift herself into the air and land on a steel beam high up in the training ground.
“Standing here, you can’t do anything to me, right!”
A proud smile appeared on the girl’s lips as she stood high above, attacking Mr. Su Rui below.
She seemed to think that Mr. Su Rui’s descent from the sky earlier was just him happening to be at a high altitude?
It’s a good opportunity for her to see that I can fly.
