I don’t know whether it was because Baiyunshan’s previous reminder came true and Takayama Yinan fell asleep after eating too much, or because this UNO was too energy-consuming. After the game, the girl became the first one to choose to rest in the car tonight. candidate.
This UNO ended with the victory of the comprehensive and serious Nishino Nanase, and finally came to an end. Facts have proved that a certain mayonnaise star really doesn't have the upper hand in this kind of game that requires brain use. Even if UNO actually has a lot of luck, and she has the advantage of formulating additional rules in advance, she still can't win in the end. girl.
Not only did his original plan to take the opportunity to target Na-chan fail, but he himself did not get any good results. After Nishino Nanase finally triumphed in the game with great satisfaction, he did not forget the doubts he had been concerned about before and took a closer look. Baiyunshan and Hashimoto Nana glanced at each other and said to the girl: "Mai, can you come with me? I have something to say to you -"
"Eh? What are you talking about?"
Mai Shiraishi was still upset about tonight's failure, staring at the lights at the foot of the mountain in a daze. When she suddenly heard the other party say these words, she couldn't help but feel guilty and her eyes flickered slightly.
"Anyway...some very important words."
Nishino Nanase hesitated to speak. Of course it was difficult to explain this kind of thing openly, especially if Baiyun-sang knew about it, otherwise it would be really bad. So after saying that, he turned around and went straight to the side.
Shiraishi Mai was startled when she saw this. After glancing at the remaining two people hesitantly, she could only bite the bullet and follow. After all, although she didn't know what Na-chan was suddenly going to say to her at this time, if she didn't go If so, the problem is obviously bigger. If it is really related to something, then you are just asking for it——
The two stopped at one side, and after making sure that the two people on the other side of Baiyun Mountain could not hear the conversation, Nishino Nanase finally spoke in a deep voice.
As soon as she opened her mouth, Shiraishi Mai almost screamed in shock.
"Ma Yiyan, do you hate me?"
"Eh? Huh? This -"
Shiraishi Mai's expression was shocked, and panic suddenly surged in her heart. It turned out that Na-chan had noticed what she had just done! She already knows! What to do now?
He was thinking about countermeasures in his mind crazily, and he pretended to be surprised and said: "No... Na-chan? Why do you think so? Isn't this too strange?"
However, despite her frail appearance and soft and cute voice, a certain Osaka pigeon looks like an introverted girl who likes to read comics and play games, but her personality is almost better than that of the carefree-looking Sara Rei. direct.
He could see at a glance that the other party was trying to delay time so that he could think of an explanation, so he went straight in without giving any room for retreat.
"It must have something to do with Baiyun Sang."
Nishino Nanase said firmly, staring at her eyes.
"I......"
Mai Shiraishi looked at her blankly, as if she was speechless.
"Although I don't know 100% why, it definitely has something to do with Baiyun-san. In other words, since you said you don't hate me, Maiyang, you did it for Baiyun-san, right?"
Seeing her look like this, Nishino Nanase no longer needed to ask any more questions. He already knew that he had guessed correctly, so he lowered his head slightly and looked at the scattered lights that the other party had been looking at before. His soft voice spoke at this moment. Sounding unusually calm: "Unless you were lying earlier, you actually really hate Nana and me. Otherwise, what is the reason? Can you tell me? Mai-like?"
"I...I have never hated you, Na-chan. I can guarantee that I have never..."
After a long and difficult silence, Shiraishi Mai still whispered these words. This is indeed the case. Regardless of how strongly hostile she seemed to be towards the other party in the game just now, it was at best a woman's jealousy and feeling that she had been challenged. Once the game was over, she returned to reality.
Dislike is definitely not the case. To put it bluntly, she has never had any ill feelings toward the girl in front of her. She just simply doesn't want her to be with a certain guy.
Everything I did before was because of this.
Even from the perspective of friends and members, girls are obviously a very good choice. They usually like to rely on the backs of other members and act like a spoiled brat. It can be said that they are loved by everyone.
But now, this sentence obviously does not have much convincing power, especially after Nishino Nanase's speech, it feels even more obvious.
If you say you don't hate it, then it's because of Baiyun Sang. But you refuse to tell the reason. Doesn't this make it even more unclear?
Nishino Nanase stared at her without saying a word, silently waiting for her answer.
After the ordeal, Shiraishi Mai could only bite the bullet and choose to respond again. Her eyes were slightly firm, and she let out a long sigh. She seemed to have finally made up her mind. She said with a complex expression: "Okay, I'll tell you frankly, but I hope you won't be sad, Na-chan. Don’t even tell others—”
"Um."
Nishino Nanase also felt inexplicably nervous and nodded vigorously.
Mai Shiraishi said sincerely: "I did do this because of Baiyun-san, actually..."
"Actually, Baiyun-sang hates you!"
...
...
"What?!"
After hearing the whole story, Baiyunshan was dumbfounded and almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. Ten thousand horses and mud horses rushed through his heart. He scolded a certain mayonnaise star hundreds of times before he felt a little relieved to vent his depression.
Damn it! Why did you put the blame on me again? When did I become the one who took the blame? It's obvious that you came up with the rules and you were the one causing the trouble, yet I tried every possible means to stop it. But in the end, when the secret was exposed, you just dumped the blame on me and that's it? Is there any mistake?
Baiyunshan only felt his scalp numb. Ever since he found out that the girl liked him, he felt a little weird every time they met, especially after he learned that the other person was the boss who played "Monster Hunter" very well. , this feeling is even stronger. But now that he directly told her that he actually hated her, he simply didn't dare to think about the consequences of this -
"Baiyun-san, do you really hate me, Nana?"
The girl's soft Osaka accent sounded in my ears. I lowered my head and saw that it was Nishino Nanase who was biting her lip and looking at him aggrievedly. Her red eyes were full of tears, as if all he wanted was to say yes or nod. His movements immediately poured out like a flood from a floodgate, which made me feel pity for him.
Faced with this situation, any normal person would know how to answer, let alone Baiyun Mountain, so he decisively shook his head vigorously and said firmly: "Of course not! How could I hate you?"
"But, that's what Mai said. She said it was all because you told her about it, that she just now——"
A black line slowly crawled out of Baiyunshan's forehead, but he also knew that this was not the time to care about it, so he quickly said: "If you think about it carefully, why do I hate you? Frankly speaking, judging from my usual performance, even if Is it because I am more likely to hate Akimoto than you are? Of course, I don’t mean to hate her - after all, you are so cute and your voice is so nice, everyone must have liked it before it was too late... ..”
After coaxing and lying, and saying all the good things he could think of, he discovered that the expression on the girl's face gradually changed from gloomy to clear. Not only did she smile, but her face also became slightly shy, as if she felt that someone had praised her. A little too much.
But he still couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes.
Baiyunshan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, thinking that he would have to settle the score with Baishi after the sunrise this time. Otherwise, he would throw the blame on himself every time. How could he cope with this?
But before he could completely relax, he heard Nishino Nanase questioning again: "But, if Baiyun-san really doesn't hate me, does that mean Mai is lying? She lied to me -"
"Uh, this-"
Bai Yunshan's face froze, and he met the girl's suspicious gaze. He shouted in his heart that something was wrong. In order to prevent the situation that had finally been stabilized from collapsing again, he could only think quickly and said: "Okay! I'd better confess! In fact, the truth is That’s right, Shiraishi didn’t lie, and I really don’t hate you—”
"Because the person who hates you is Nanamine."
...
...
"Okay, let me tell you frankly, Mai did not lie, Baiyun Sang did not lie, and I do not hate you. The person who really hates you is actually Xiao Ming..."
Hashimoto Nana looked at her calmly and spoke slowly. Suddenly her face fell, and she had no choice but to recognize the fact: "...Well, it's impossible for Xiao Ming to hate you."
"Then what's the reason?"
Nishino Nanase opened his eyes in confusion. The two of them were sitting on the grass a little far away from the tent. The street lights next to them were slightly brighter, and the sound of Baiyunshan seeming to be complaining about something was almost inaudible, as if they were in a In a strange space, there were only two of them left in the whole world.
She couldn't blame her for making a fuss, she really couldn't figure out why Nanamin hated her. If Mayiyan and Baiyunsang had not lied, Nanamin, who he could call a friend in his mind, not only hated him, but also told Baiyunsang about this matter, and Baiyunsang told Mayiyang again, so Things like those before will appear, but how is this possible?
Hashimoto Nana was speechless for a while. Faced with this situation, she really didn't know what to say.
These two guys are better at blaming each other than the other, just like playing Russian Roulette. Now that the bomb is in their hands, there is no unlucky guy to take it for them.
After a long silence, she decided to tell him something.
It was very quiet on the mountainside late at night. It seemed that I could only hear my own heartbeat and breathing. When I raised my head, Hashimoto Nana looked into the other person's eyes and said calmly: "You like Baiyun-san, don't you?"
"Eh? I, this -"
The original offensive and defensive situation was suddenly reversed, and the girl became the passive one. Nishino Nanase's face suddenly turned red, his pupils dilated instantly, and he didn't know where to put his hands, so he could only slowly put them. He lowered his head, never expecting that Nanamin would suddenly say this.
Unprepared, he spoke incoherently, and various ways of coping flashed through his mind. Some pretend not to have heard, just pretending that the other party never said this, or deny it outright and refuse to admit it anyway, or pretend to be laughing and get away with it, or pretend to be calm, and nothing happened——
But after mumbling for a while, he still asked quietly in a low voice.
"...How did you know?"
"Does it matter?"
Facing the girl who lowered her head as if she didn't even dare to look at herself, Hashimoto Nanami's pupils flashed with a hint of complexity. She could feel the tension, confusion, and uneasy mood of the other girl at the moment. But faced with such a rare opportunity, she did not pursue the victory and took the initiative completely into her own hands.
Instead, he recalled how he felt when he realized he had fallen in love with someone in the past. He recalled the nervousness and uneasiness at that time, the anxious emotions in the conflict, and asked softly: "Have you ever thought about the consequences of doing this? ?”
"Nanamin?"
Nishino Nanase's body trembled slightly, and he understood the hidden meaning of her words. He raised his head carefully, but met a pair of soft and gentle eyes.
After a moment of confusion, he remembered what the other party had just asked. His expression flashed with anxiety and nervousness, but in the end he gradually became firmer and nodded lightly.
"Have you really thought about it?"
Hashimoto Nanami asked back: "It's true that you like him, but have you ever thought about what if he doesn't like you? Taking a step back, even if you like him, he also happens to like you. He is obviously an agent. But you fall in love with a little idol that you know you shouldn't like. Can you guarantee that he will really be someone worthy of your liking? And he doesn't have ulterior motives?"
"In other words, someone who falls in love with an idol who knows that dating is forbidden and confesses to him or accepts his confession is a scumbag, right?"
"If he really cares about you, he should reject you, because this is obviously the best choice for everyone. And in this case, the outcome will most likely be rejection. What's the point of your liking?"
A thorough analysis of the speech.
Nishino Nanase's face gradually turned from red to white, and the firmness in her eyes began to waver a little bit. Her white teeth bit the corners of her lips, and her fingers holding the corner of her skirt unconsciously turned white with force.
This is indeed the case. These problems have always existed, but the girl has ignored them intentionally or unintentionally. But when this moment was brought up again and he had to face this reality that was so heavy that it was hard to breathe, Nishino Nanase could no longer blurt out those words of affirmation unswervingly.
Because this is not a simple love between a man and a woman, but an idol who is forbidden to fall in love with his manager. No matter how you look at it, it is difficult to have a happy ending that has the best of both worlds. The ending of the story has been explained at the beginning of the story. It doesn't matter if you like it or not.
The air fell into a dead silence.
After a while, what made Hashimoto Nana a little at a loss was that Nishino Nanase, who had just tried not to cry when she heard Shiraishi Mai say that a certain guy hated her, could no longer suppress the tears in her eyes at this moment. Drops of water fell to the ground, and he lowered his head and sobbed silently.
Hashimoto Nana's heart softened and she felt a little regretful, feeling that she shouldn't have said it so bluntly. The feelings of girls are always poetry. The girl in front of you at this age may not necessarily consider so many factors when she likes you. Many times it is just a simple liking, and liking this kind of thing cannot be explained clearly.
Even if you know that this is wrong, even if you know the consequences, do you need a reason to like someone? Maybe you need it, but that's only before you like it. Do you need it after you like it?
Just when she was slightly lost in thought, she heard the girl's voice again.
"Nanamin—"
"Um?"
Hashimoto Nana quickly took a closer look. Nishino Nanase reached out to wipe the tears on her cheeks and spoke. Her soft voice sounded slightly hoarse, but her words shocked her.
"Nanamin, I still like him."
Nishino Nanase wiped her tears gently, but a smile appeared on her pale face little by little, as if she was embarrassed, but also seemed to be speaking to her heart, she whispered: "I will like the manager of my little idol." You may be a scumbag, but someone like me who falls in love with my agent is probably not a good person. In that case, even if he is really a scumbag, what if he has other motives? I am like this People don’t have the right to hate him—"
"And I really like him. Just knowing this is enough. No matter what kind of person he is, whether he is a good person or a bad person. Since I like him, let me continue to like him before I change my mind one day in the future. Bar."
Hashimoto Nana remained silent. After Nishino Nanase carefully wiped the tears on her face, her nose was still a little red. She sniffed and smiled at her sheepishly: "Thank you, Nanamin."
Hashimoto Nana didn't look at her, she only saw a shimmering light in her twinkling eyes, which made her feel a little hard to look directly. She said in a soft voice sincerely: "Thank you for telling me this today. , and took the initiative to help me and worry about me. However, maybe I am really hopeless, I'm sorry."
Also, don’t tell Baiyun Sang, okay? Not for now, please
