Asai Reina listened to Xia Nuo talking about her grand vision of designing rockets to land on the Moon, and while silently admiring her, she also shared many ideas about the future.
As they were talking, Asai Reina noticed Xu Lingyi continually making eye signals to her.
...
Suddenly, Asai Reina realized—
No, we are on a mission!
It was then that Asai Reina finally recognized the level of Xia Nuo’s topic-changing tactics were still of world-class standard.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Clearing her throat a few times, Asai Reina continued:
"Right, Nuo Nuo, let’s pause for a moment. We should get back on topic."
"What topic were we discussing just now?"
"It’s, it’s about Yu!"
Muttering, Asai Reina said, "We originally said we’d go out with you and You You today, but then Yu said that You You could only spend time with her."
No matter how you put it, it sounded like stirring up trouble!
Asai Reina didn’t want to do that—
But, it was also Yu’s own request, so...
"Yu doesn’t let us talk to You You, so we could only come, come chat with you."
After hearing this, Xia Nuo shrugged helplessly, "Then there’s really no helping it, Yu always had a strong possessive instinct; she’s been like that since she was a child."
Xia Nuo sighed, "Anyone who gets close to You You, even boys, won’t do. Just like Wang Zihan we’ve known since we were little, Yu won’t even allow—"
"Ah ah, okay, let’s not talk about You You anymore."
Xu Lingyi suddenly interrupted, "Since you’ve already worked so hard today, you must be tired, right? Take a rest, relax a bit..."

"Nope, I’m still quite energetic!"
Xia Nuo said, "I’ve got energy to spare!"
"Well, in that case, do you want to go shopping with us?"
"Yesterday... I already went shopping with You You."
When Xia Nuo mentioned this, she hesitated a bit, looking slightly troubled.
"Shopping with boys is so dull; real fun is shopping with close girlfriends."
"Right, right, exactly, Nuo Nuo—"
Asai Reina was already aware of Xu Lingyi’s purpose at this point—
She intended to use this method to lure Nuo Nuo out first and then create a chance to unexpectedly encounter "the confession scene" with Luo Xianyu and Fang You.
It was a good idea.
But the only problem now was:
Xia Nuo was completely not falling for it!
Not only that, but she had even begun to notice something was amiss.
"Goodness, why do you keep pestering me? I’m really busy today... Without You You, can’t the two of you just have fun together?"
Suddenly displaying a skeptical look, Xia Nuo asked, "By the way, how did you two meet? Aren’t you in different classes?"
"Ah... well, there are many reasons for that, anyway, we just got to know each other..."
Asai Reina and Xu Lingyi scratched their heads, showing a smiley expression.
"Weird... Anyway, go have fun."
Xia Nuo said, "Unless there’s a compelling reason, I won’t go out with you today no matter what."
...
Asai Reina and Xu Lingyi looked at each other, exchanging a glance, Xu Lingyi shrugged helplessly, with a look of having no further options.
...
Ah.
Is there really no way...
In this moment, Asai Reina’s emotions were complicated.
With things already like this, I can only—
"Actually... it’s like this!"
"We’ve come to find you today."
"Because, because—"
"Because of what?" Continue your journey on freewebnovel
Xia Nuo looked at Asai Reina curiously, "Do you have a reason that I absolutely can’t refuse to go out with you?"
"Because..."
"Actually—"
I never wanted to play this card unless it was the last resort.
But now, the moment has come.
If Yu can make such an enormous and ridiculous sacrifice for You You and Nuo Nuo’s relationship to move forward.
Then, then, me.
As someone who grew up together...
I also—
No longer have anything to fear!
"So then? What is it—"
"Conf... Conf... Conf..."
"Confess what?"
Biting her lip, when Asai Reina looked up again, her eyes were brimming with tears:
"I... I’ve already confessed to You You!"
"Huh?"
This time, not only was Xia Nuo astonished, but even Xu Lingyi next to her dropped her jaw in surprise.
"You confessed to You You?"
"How, how did that happen? Tell me everything—take a seat, take a seat!"
Xia Nuo pulled Asai Reina to a seat and filled up her cup with water, treating Asai Reina as if she were some sort of boss.
Of course, Asai Reina wasn’t foolish enough to have actually confessed directly to You You.
However, if there’s one thing Nuo Nuo would definitely be interested in, something that would elevate her to a higher priority,
It would have to be this!
"So then, were you rejected?"
"Do you even need to ask..."
With her signature defeated smile, Asai Reina said, "I thought it was embarrassing to talk about it, and I felt a bit sorry for you... But from the beginning, I had decided, no matter what, I wanted to tell you about the outcome."
"You have nothing to be sorry to me for, I’m actually quite impressed by you..."
Xia Nuo said blankly, "You knew for sure that You You would reject your confession, yet you went ahead and did it anyway."
"Reina, you must have wanted not to leave regrets in your youth..."
"Can, can we still be friends in the future?"
Asai Reina, overwhelmed with emotion, could not hold back, her voice choked and her tears began to fall freely.
As the Defeated Queen who had taken on countless classic loser roles, naturally immersing herself in a real-life loser’s emotions, she could quickly get into character.
