Raiden Mei, who had been paying attention to the situation, naturally noticed Kiana's gaze.
"...Damn it! What does this white-haired girl mean by that?!"
What kind of matter was inconvenient to discuss in front of her?
At this moment, Mei, who was trying to calm herself down, found her heart even more unsettled.
Simultaneously, an ominous premonition suddenly struck Raiden Mei's mind. Could it be that Kiana was going to ask Su Moqian out to confess her feelings?
"Wait, that's not right. Su Moqian definitely wouldn't agree to her..."
"That's right, as long as I'm still sitting here, he definitely won't go out with another girl!"
Just as Raiden Mei was thinking this, Su Moqian, who understood Kiana's intention, nodded without hesitation:
"Okay, wait for me."
With that, Su Moqian returned to his seat, picked up a gift box, and came back to Kiana's front.
"Let's go, where are we going?" Su Moqian said with a smile.
Kiana glanced at Raiden Mei again. Noticing that the other girl was staring at her, she couldn't help but feel a little shy.
It seems Mei has noticed me too. And she's staring at me like this, clearly my charm is effective on girls too!
And with Su Moqian's help, making friends with her will be very smooth from now on, right?
Thinking this, a hint of joy appeared on Kiana's face, and she said softly:
"Hmm, how about behind the teaching building?"
"No problem." Su Moqian nodded and then walked out with Kiana.
Raiden Mei: "!!!"
Moqian actually agreed? And right in front of me?
At this moment, Raiden Mei was completely stunned.
She realized that the scene she least wanted to see was likely about to happen!
Although Kiana's shyness and joy just now were both because of Raiden Mei.
From Mei's perspective, this was just a love-struck girl who had gotten Su Moqian's approval!
Recalling the smile on Kiana's face when she turned to look at her, Raiden Mei's body trembled uncontrollably.
This is a provocation against me! This is a provocation against me!
Chapter 21: Kiana: Does he like me?
Behind the teaching building.
Kiana and Su Moqian walked to this place one after another.
After confirming that there was no one around, Kiana grabbed Su Moqian and said:
"What should I do, Moqian? I, this young lady, have absolutely no experience in actively making friends with people."
"Although it's not a big deal, the thought of actively approaching someone makes me feel a bit tongue-tied..."
"Huh? No way, it's just simple friend-making, isn't it?" Su Moqian asked with a confused expression.
"Then tell me, what do you plan to say when you meet Mei?"
"As for greetings, I've already thought of it." Kiana nodded, then cleared her throat and said:
"Hello, please date me with the premise of marriage!"
"What nonsense are you spouting, you idiot?" Su Moqian pinched Kiana's face and shouted:
"You'll definitely scare Mei away like this! Forget Mei, no girl would accept that!"
"Who talks like that? Kiana, do you have a misunderstanding about making friends?"
Because Su Moqian was pinching her face, Kiana could only pout and say:
"What does it matter? I'll have to say that to Mei sooner or later anyway."
Su Moqian: "..."
This white-haired furball is really persistent! It seems I can't let my guard down for even a moment!
Thinking this, Su Moqian turned around directly and said:
"Forget it, I think you'll cause Mei more trouble. Let's abandon this plan."
"Don't, Moqian, I was wrong, okay!" Kiana quickly grabbed Su Moqian's hand, preventing him from leaving.
"I'll definitely make friends with her properly this time! Hurry up and give me a plan."
Su Moqian turned his head: "Are you sure it's making friends, not girlfriends?"
Kiana turned her face away, unable to meet his gaze: "Ehehe~"
"Goodbye." Su Moqian turned and left without hesitation.
"Ah, friends, friends, friends! It's really just making friends!"
Kiana clung tightly to Su Moqian's arm this time, absolutely refusing to let him leave.
"Remember what you said, okay?"
Su Moqian stopped and turned back to face Kiana, asking, "You asked me here just to ask how to befriend Mei? Is that it?"
"That's right," Kiana nodded and explained, "Because I don't want Mei to think we're befriending her out of pity or anything. It would be even better if we could become friends more naturally."
"I see," Su Moqian nodded thoughtfully.
"I didn't expect you, you dummy, to actually consider others like this."
"Hmph, of course! This young lady is the best to her friends!"
Kiana put her hands on her hips, looking smug.
"Hmm... While your concerns are valid, I actually don't think Mei is that fragile a person," Su Moqian said, thinking.
"As the saying goes, analyze specific problems specifically. Mei's biggest concern right now is her innocence. All we need to do is show that we trust her and are willing to be her friend."
Upon hearing this, Kiana clapped her hands together, suddenly enlightened.
"That makes sense! How could I not have thought of that?"
Su Moqian's lips curled up, and he thought smugly to himself, In terms of understanding Mei, you fluffy white ball are merely gravel compared to me!
At this moment, Kiana also exclaimed in surprise, "I really didn't expect you to understand Mei so well, Moqian."
Hearing her words, Su Moqian, though smug internally, replied humbly, "Just a little bit, not worth mentioning."
As he spoke, Su Moqian suddenly remembered something and handed Kiana a gift box he had specifically brought out.
"Oh, right, this is for you."
This was the flower Su Moqian had prepared yesterday, originally intending to secretly put it on Mei's desk.
But after hearing that Kiana wanted to befriend Mei, he changed his mind.
He decided to give some of it to Kiana, so that the two of them could appear more sincere when befriending Mei.
However, when Kiana saw the framed flowers in the gift box Su Moqian handed her, she was completely stunned.
Kiana began to reconnect to the Kaslana family's shared network and started calculating furiously.
This high-intensity thinking put an even greater strain on Kiana's already not-so-bright cerebellum, leading her to a bold conclusion.
"So Moqian has fallen in love with me!"
At this moment, Kiana looked at Su Moqian with a look of sudden realization.
No wonder Su Moqian had seemed so angry at her behavior just now, it was because of this!
As expected, someone like herself, beautiful and intelligent, would be liked by anyone, wouldn't they?
But unfortunately, Kiana knew that no matter what, she wouldn't get together with Su Moqian, so she quickly spoke out.
"Are you giving me flowers because you want to pursue me? I'm sorry, although I was almost moved, after calming down, I still feel I can't accept it!"
"After all, this young lady doesn't like men. Although I admire you, it's really not going to work!"
Listening to Kiana's long speech, Su Moqian's mouth twitched.
What is this silly girl thinking? How could she possibly interpret this as a confession?!
Su Moqian sighed helplessly and explained, "Can you stop saying silly things? This is obviously for Mei, what does it have to do with you?"
"Huh? For Mei?" Kiana blinked.
"That's right," Su Moqian nodded.
"Look at the flowers in this gift box, they are Chrysanthemums and Plum Blossoms. Their flower language signifies strength. There's no way this would be used for a confession, right?"
"Is... is that so..."
Realizing she had misunderstood Su Moqian, Kiana's face instantly turned red.
She hadn't been exposed to flowers much since she was little and knew even less about flower language.
She had just assumed that any gift of flowers meant a romantic confession between a man and a woman, how incredibly stupid!
Kiana covered her flushed face with both hands and shouted internally, Kiana, what on earth did you just sayyyyyyyy!
Seeing Kiana's extreme embarrassment, Su Moqian suddenly leaned closer, a smile on his face.
"They're just ordinary flowers, and someone actually misunderstood them like that? Tsk, what a love-struck girl."
"Uwah! Stop talking about it!"
In this clash, Kiana, utterly defeated, could no longer hold on.
She snatched the gift box from Su Moqian's hand and took off running towards the school building.
Watching the white-haired young lady flee in disarray, Su Moqian chuckled:
"That's it? I really don't understand how my future self lost to this white-haired fluffball."
"It couldn't be that my future self died, could it?"
Chapter 22: My Best Friend Kiana is Pure and Untainted!
Senba Academy, classroom.
Students sat in small groups, chatting amongst themselves. However, they all gathered at the back of the classroom, none daring to approach Raiden Mei in the front row.
This wasn't because they wanted to give her the cold shoulder; they simply didn't dare to provoke Raiden Mei.
Not only was the school cracking down on bullying, but Raiden Mei's aura was inexplicably oppressive, making the students too afraid to get close.
"Hey, isn't Mei acting a bit strange today?"
"Yeah, she seems really scary right now."
"This resentment... it looks like she lost her boyfriend!"
As if hearing the students' whispers, Raiden Mei suddenly stood up from her seat.
Instantly, the girls who had been secretly discussing Mei at the back of the classroom fell silent.
It was like a classroom after the teacher opens the door – dead silent, as they were afraid Raiden Mei would cause trouble for them.
"Hmph."
Raiden Mei scanned the students in the classroom, her eyes revealing disdain.
