Watching Kushida Kikyo desperately explain herself to Hirata Yosuke and Karizawa Kei while Ike Koji and Yamauchi Haruki glared at him as if their eyes were about to spit fire, Fang Li felt not the delight of being favored by a cute girl, but pure confusion.
(What kind of game is Kushida Kikyo playing?)
That was Fang Li's only thought.
Because Fang Li believed that he and Kushida Kikyo had shown no signs of developing that sort of sweet romantic relationship.
Perhaps another boy, isolated as he was in class yet constantly approached by a cute girl, might more or less entertain fantasies like, "Does she like me?"
But Fang Li was not that naive.
He had been forced to discard such unrealistic fantasies not long after he was born.
So, in Fang Li's eyes, Kushida Kikyo's behavior made no sense at all.
It was not that Fang Li failed to understand a woman's heart.
He also knew that girls were truly unfathomable. Perhaps they really could fall for someone because of a particular reason or a particular moment.
From that perspective, the possibility that Kushida Kikyo was interested in him did exist.
However, Fang Li was certain that Kushida Kikyo had absolutely not fallen for him.
The reason was simple.
In that instant, the look Kushida Kikyo had cast at Fang Li was definitely not the look one gave someone of the opposite sex they cared about.
Rather than looking at someone she cared about, it was more like she was looking at...
Of course, that was only Fang Li's feeling.
But Fang Li had always trusted his instincts.
Therefore, he was certain that Kushida Kikyo had not fallen for him. She had some other purpose.
(Could this be why she has been approaching me all this time?)
