It's Okay, Anon. Small Is Cute Too... Don't Hit Me!

I'm not like that anymore.

However, it was indeed very satisfying to make Rokko and the others envious and jealous.

"Rose, please. I'm a very loving girl," Chihaya Anon said with a smile.

The meaning of roses is passion, love, and beauty.

The next day, Riki set off for the concert hall to prepare for the competition. Before leaving, he saw that Aine was still fast asleep, so he didn't disturb her. He just left her some steamed buns and soy milk for breakfast.

When Riki was halfway through her journey, she heard rumbling thunder. Soon, large raindrops began to patter against the car window, filling it completely in less than five seconds so she couldn't see outside.

It's raining heavily.

Riki thought to himself, and after getting out of the car, he ran into the music hall in the rain. He shook off the raindrops and went into the lounge. He checked his phone and didn't receive any messages from Aine. He sent her a message telling her not to come. He didn't know if she was awake yet. With such heavy rain, she probably couldn't come even if she wanted to. She was probably resting at home.

Riki sat for a while until it was their turn to go on stage. He stood up with a serious look in his eyes.

Riki, with her twenty fingers, is going all out!

After the performance, Riki saw the regretful expressions on the faces of the other contestants who were already eliminated.

That's how cruel the world of competition is.

Riki suddenly realized that Aine might also be someone she couldn't make it through in her heart, which was why she was running away.

"Riki, the rain is getting heavier outside. Let's sit down for a while," Rokko said.

Riki nodded, but for some reason, he felt a little restless thinking about what Aine had told him yesterday.

Probably not. Aine is a very outgoing person; she wouldn't do something so embarrassing.

She loves being clean and pretty; she looks terrible when she gets wet in the rain.

But...

For some reason, Riki had a feeling that Chihaya Anon might really come.

Riki walked out of the concert hall. The heavy rain outside soaked him instantly. He looked around, but he didn't see the familiar pink-haired figure at the entrance of the concert hall, which was shrouded in white rain and mist.

Riki breathed a sigh of relief.

That's true, Aine isn't stupid.

The rain is beating down on me so hard it hurts; who could stand it?

"Riki!"

Riki heard the sound and turned around. Chihaya Anon's hair was wet and stuck to her fair face. She was soaked to the bone, but her eyes were unusually bright. She ran over, holding a bunch of wet roses.

"I'm so sorry, this place is too big, I didn't know where to look for you!" Chihaya Anon quickly apologized. "Also, I left a little late, and the roses I bought were a bit wilted and damaged by the rain. The rain was so heavy, I searched for you for ten minutes before finally finding you. My phone screen is so wet I can't even turn it on. I've had so many unlucky things happen to me today."

She was soaked to the bone, but her eyes were smiling as she looked at Riki with a bright smile, offering her roses in the rain. "But Riki won, right? I knew without you saying it, because Riki is a very capable person... Riki, congratulations!"

Chihaya Anon smiled gently, then awkwardly brushed back the pink strands of hair that were stuck to her face by the rain.

"Um, do you mind if the flowers aren't pretty?" Chihaya Anon asked cautiously.

Riki stared blankly at Chihaya Anon in front of her.

Isn't she the one who loves to make herself look beautiful?

But she braved the rain to come all the way here just to deliver the flowers, and even took a ten-minute detour.

No, what Riki should be saying now is...

Riki reached out and took the roses from Chihaya Anon's hand, looking at Aine earnestly and saying, "These are the most beautiful flowers I've ever received. Thank you, Aine."

Chihaya Anon blinked her beautiful eyes and chuckled softly, "Of course!"

"There's one more thing..." Riki said.

Chihaya Anon saw Riki take off his coat and drape it over her shoulders.

"Let's go home right away!" Riki said.

Chihaya Anon clutched her warm coat, nodded, and smiled, "Mm!"

She smiled gently at Riki, her face as bright as a flower.

Chapter 207 It's okay Aine, she's so small... Don't hit her!

The heavy rain pounded on the stone pavement. Riki, holding Chihaya Anon's hand, ran into the subway station amidst the astonished gazes of passersby. Both of them were soaked through, their clothes clinging to their bodies, and the chill of the rain made them feel slightly cold.

Chihaya Anon tightened Riki's coat around her, careful not to let others see her beautiful figure. She looked around warily and noticed two girls staring blankly at the wet Riki beside her, drooling, and already unconsciously taking out their phones to take pictures.

Girls aren't allowed to peek!

Chihaya Anon quickly pushed Riki, saying, "Let's go wipe the rain off on the chairs at the subway station entrance next door, so no one can peek at us."

Chihaya Anon glared at the two girls, annoyed. "Don't give the boy I went out with such a creepy look!"

Chinese "real-life" girls are so immature.

Japanese girls would definitely understand this unspoken rule.

Chihaya Anon was a little angry. Although she and Riki were not in a romantic relationship, and she had no right to tell other girls not to get close to Riki, she was still Riki's bandmate. These two girls seemed to be the kind of people who only cared about appearances. She felt that Riki definitely wouldn't like girls like that, even though they were both pretty, but not as pretty as her.

Riki and Chihaya Anon sat down on the chairs. Riki said, "We should check their phones to see if they've taken any secret photos."

Forget T0, I'm playing T0!

"Don't worry, their cameras aren't pointed at us." Chihaya Anon was very happy to see that Riki didn't seem to care about the two girls.

Before her was a curtain of rain, white mist swirling on the ground, the sound of rain never ceasing. Suddenly, Riki saw Rokko standing at the entrance of the concert hall across the street. She could vaguely see his serious expression as he looked over. Come to think of it, he had seen Riki run out, and he had also seen Aine giving roses in the rain, and in the distance, he had seen him holding a cell phone and making a call.

"Ring ring--"

Riki's phone rang, but he hung up immediately.

"Aren't you going to answer the phone?" Chihaya Anon asked curiously.

"No need to answer, it's just a nuisance call," Riki said hastily. He saw Rokko on the other end of the line angrily start punching the air. "But why didn't you bring an umbrella in this heavy rain?"

"It wasn't raining when I went out. I wanted to pick out some fresh flowers, but then it suddenly started pouring. If I went home to get an umbrella, I wouldn't be able to deliver the flowers to Riki in time. Hard work deserves reward, and Riki is no exception, so I definitely have to deliver the flowers to Riki," Chihaya Anon with a gentle smile.

Aine, do you also want to become a saint?

The battle for sainthood is fraught with terror. Are you sure you can defeat Saint Sakiko and Holy Donut?

"Here, a tissue." Riki handed over a tissue. Chihaya Anon thanked him and used the tissue to wipe the raindrops off her face before taking off her shoes.

No, why are you taking off your shoes?

Do you really think I'm a fellow porridge enthusiast?

Riki noticed that Aine was wearing ankle boots today. She took them off, emptied the rainwater, wiggled her smooth, jade-like toes, and sighed, "I should have known better than to wear these. My feet are so uncomfortable being all wet."

I'll call my fellow porridge lovers right away.

It will be clean in no time.

"Then you shouldn't wear it," Riki said.

"Um... ah?" Chihaya Anon paused, blushing as she looked at Riki and quickly covered her feet with her hands. "Wait, Riki, what do you mean?"

Could it be that Riki has her eye on my feet?!

What's that Japanese girl down there thinking about?

"What I mean is, I'll carry you on my back. You even brought me flowers in the rain, so it's no problem for me to carry you back." Riki gave an OK sign.

"Oh, I see." Chihaya Anon awkwardly.

What else do you think?

"Let's go," Riki said, standing up.

Chihaya Anon tied the shoelaces of her ankle boots together and held them in her hand. Standing on the chair, she hugged Riki's neck and was carried on Riku's back.

"Will it be too heavy?" Aine couldn't help but ask.

"Light as a feather," Riki said.

Aine smiled with satisfaction.

His leg strength was far inferior to Rikki's.

Just as Aine said, she does have long, slender legs like a model.

Chihaya Anon, being carried on Riki's back, noticed that many passersby were looking at her. Feeling a little embarrassed, she buried her face in Riki's shoulder.

But... it's very heartwarming.

It felt just as reassuring as when my grandma carried me on her back when I was a child.

Chihaya Anon's face was flushed, her ears were also red, and there was a slight smile on her lips.

It's a little inappropriate to be carried on someone's back by a boy you've never dated.

However, Riki has a crush on her, so this isn't necessarily inappropriate.

Confess your feelings to me soon.

Otherwise, I'll become someone else's girlfriend.

"What are you laughing at?" Riki asked curiously, hearing Aine's soft laughter from behind.

"I'm so happy for Riki's advancement," Chihaya Anon with a soft smile.

"What's the big deal? It's only natural!" Riki said smugly.

Chihaya Anon wrapped her arms around Riki's neck, lowered her eyes, and chuckled softly, "Well, after all, Riki is very capable."

But that's not the case for her.

Failure is to be expected.

Back home, Riki told Chihaya Anon to take a shower first, and then drink it after she finished... before going in to shower herself.

After taking a shower, Chihaya Anon felt the sticky feeling on her rain-soaked skin disappear. She picked up Riki's laptop and browsed the internet. After watching Bilibili for a while, she found it uninteresting and instead opened Weibo in her favorites. Seeing the bloggers and celebrities on it, her eyes lit up.

"What is this Xiaohongshu?" Chihaya Anon looked curiously at another page that Riki had saved. It looked like it was for girls, but why would Riki save it?

She ignored it at first, then realized that the Weibo account she had opened was Riki's account page, and his latest message was 10 seconds ago.

Haicheng University - Riki: [Barely qualified, learned and diligent, still need to work hard on the road ahead, let's encourage each other (muscles)(muscles)(muscles)].

Chihaya Anon recalled what Riki had just said to her, and he said smugly that it was only natural.

That's pretentious.

Chihaya Anon stuck out her tongue and smiled, but she found it quite amusing.

And wasn't Riki posting this while taking a shower 10 seconds ago?

Chihaya Anon's eyes suddenly narrowed as she saw comments in the comments section such as "It's just a customized victory" and "Facing the Kyoto team is a sure way to fulfill filial piety"...

Chihaya Anon and immediately logged in with the alternate account Riki had registered for her. She started attacking right there below, frantically translating with translation software while battling the little black monster.

Aine: [The competition was fair and just, there was no behind-the-scenes manipulation. So who do you think has the real talent?]

Kuroko: [Chihaya Anon.]

Chihaya Anon's fingers froze. This... is she a fan?

But no, we still have to criticize!

Chihaya Anon continued the online battle for a week.

When Riki came out of the shower, she saw Aine focused on the computer. What was she doing?

Riki felt that Chihaya Anon was really suited to China. In the past few days, she had already learned how to buy cosmetics on Taobao and could skillfully leave negative reviews and request refunds from merchants. Even when Riki was sometimes scammed, she could help Riki get a refund.

The streamer is Chinese, but was born in Japan.
