His delicate, fair face, deep-blue eyes like the ocean, and silver hair braided into twin braids—if Dong Moxuan still couldn't recognize the identity of the girl beneath him, he wouldn't deserve to call himself a captain.

The moment he realized the girl's identity, Dong Moxuan understood one thing—he seemed to have gotten himself into serious trouble!

"Hey! Are you done touching me yet?"

After her initial confusion and embarrassment, the silver-haired girl—Kiana—quickly came to her senses, thanks to her extraordinary physical constitution and mental fortitude.

Looking at Dong Moxuan sitting on top of her in an extremely suggestive position, Kiana put on a fake smile that didn't reach her eyes and asked in a chilling tone.

"Done, done!"

Hearing Kiana's question, Dong Moxuan pulled away his right hand from a certain indescribable part of Kiana as if he had been shocked by electricity.

He looked at the silver-haired girl beneath him and gave her an awkward yet polite smile.

"Um, I still have something to do, so I'll be going!"

As he said this, Dong Moxuan raised the lunchbox in his hand and fled without waiting for Kiana to reply.

"Hey, you bastard, don't run!"

Seeing this, Kiana, who had just been taken advantage of so thoroughly, naturally refused to let him off. She immediately prepared to get up and chase after him.

However, perhaps the damage caused by that incident had been too severe. By the time Kiana shakily got to her feet, Dong Moxuan had already run out of sight.

"Damn it! Just wait until I catch you!"

Glaring in the direction Dong Moxuan had left, Kiana stomped her foot angrily and could only give up.

However, after venting her negative emotions, Kiana gently placed a hand over the spot Dong Moxuan had touched and revealed a puzzled, complicated expression.

"...This strange feeling..."

"...Just who is that guy...?"

Meanwhile, after running for several minutes and confirming that Kiana hadn't followed him, Dong Moxuan finally let out a sigh of relief.

That White-haired Ball wasn't as gentle as Mei. If she caught him, she would probably beat his head clean off!

Although he had encountered a small incident, Dong Moxuan hadn't forgotten his purpose and began searching for Mei.

It happened to be dismissal time. Perhaps he was particularly lucky today, because it only took him a few minutes to find Mei in the crowd. He immediately walked over with the lunchbox.

"...There are so many people..."

Looking at the convenience store packed with people, Mei furrowed her brows slightly and wore a troubled expression.

She usually ate the lunch she brought from home, so she had never known that the convenience store could be so crowded at noon.

Although this was a girls' school and there was no concern about being taken advantage of, with Lady Mei's reserve, she obviously couldn't squeeze in with a large crowd to fight over bread and milk.

"Forget it. I can only eat in the cafeteria..."

Mei had originally planned to conveniently buy some bread at the convenience store to make do with lunch, but after seeing its current state, she could only shake her head lightly and turn toward the cafeteria.

"Mei!"

Just as Mei turned around, Dong Moxuan's voice rang out beside her ears.

"M-Mr. Dong Moxuan, what are you doing here?"

Mei turned around and looked at Dong Moxuan's smiling face. Her surprise made her stammer slightly.

"Of course, it's because of this!"

Dong Moxuan raised the lunchbox in his hand and looked at Mei with a helpless expression.

"Mei, you're way too careless, aren't you? You even forgot to bring your lunch. Here!"

As he spoke, Dong Moxuan handed the lunchbox in his hand to Mei.

"..."

Mei accepted the lunchbox Dong Moxuan held out to her and stood there in a daze for several seconds before realizing what had happened.

She looked up at Dong Moxuan, her feelings somewhat complicated.

To be honest, in Mei's impression, Dong Moxuan was simply a freeloader who had latched onto her family for food.

She would make sure he had food, a place to stay, and everything else he needed, but the two of them probably wouldn't have much interaction beyond that.

She had never believed that Dong Moxuan could bring her any help.

Yet Dong Moxuan's actions at that moment made her feel as if she had truly gained a family member who cared about her.

"All right, Mei. I've delivered your lunch, so I'll be going now."

Seeing Mei take the lunchbox, Dong Moxuan, feeling that he had completed his task, prepared to leave.

Seeing this, Mei instinctively spoke up to stop him.

"Wait!"

"What is it? Is there something else?"

Dong Moxuan turned around, his expression a little puzzled.

"Th-That..."

Mei had been a young lady since childhood and had never had a truly close friend by her side.

On top of that, her father was an elusive man who was never home.

As a result, Mei had rarely felt the kindness and concern of others while growing up, and she was even less skilled at responding to it.

Therefore, Mei looked at Dong Moxuan and hesitated for quite a while before finally saying softly, her cheeks flushed, "Th-Thank you!"

Dong Moxuan "..."

Mei's adorable appearance, her cheeks flushed, left Dong Moxuan momentarily stunned. However, he quickly recovered, waved his hand, and replied with a smile, "It's what I should do."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Mei's expression just now was so adorable. This was absolutely worth it!"

After parting with Mei, Dong Moxuan recalled what had just happened and couldn't help sighing softly.

He could almost see the words "Affection +5" appearing above Mei's head. His choice this time had truly been the right one.

However, he didn't sigh for long. Afterward, Dong Moxuan began considering the problem of his own lunch.

He turned his head and looked around. When he saw the state of the convenience store, he couldn't help feeling speechless.

Even at Senba Academy, a girls' school filled entirely with beautiful girls, the convenience store was still bound to be crowded at noon...

But that was only natural. After all, if there were beautiful girls from the literature department, there would certainly be beautiful girls from the athletics department too.

Besides, when it came to women as a species, without men around, they might not necessarily be much more elegant than men.

Looking toward the convenience store, Dong Moxuan lightly stroked his chin.

Come to think of it, he had been in this world for quite some time, yet he had never eaten anything from the school's convenience store.

So why not try some convenience-store food this time?

It wasn't anything else. He simply wanted to taste what the food from the convenience store was like.

Having made up his mind, Dong Moxuan walked over. After performing a series of indescribable maneuvers, he snatched two pieces of bread and a bottle of yogurt.

Carrying the bag of bread, Dong Moxuan sat down on a nearby bench and took out a yakisoba bun. He sighed, "The convenience store's buns are so soft... Ah, no, I mean the bread is so round... No, that's not it. The bread smells so good!"

As he said this, Dong Moxuan prepared to take a bite of the yakisoba bun in his hand.

However...

"You bastard! I finally found you!"

Feeling the hand resting on his shoulder, along with the girl's voice filled with gritted teeth, Dong Moxuan's expression instantly froze.
