Zongman: Dream with me

Chapter 146 Questioning the Heart

Can Mu You make any other expressions besides smiling?

If it were in the past, Kasugano Sora might not have even noticed this problem.

Because of her health, she was separated from You for a period of time when she was very young. When they met again later, You seemed to have always been the same.

Although the other person was born just a little earlier than me, he is like a little adult, mature and steady, and loves to laugh.

Yes, he was always smiling. Even after his parents passed away, he would hold her in his arms and comfort her sensitive and fragile heart with his smile.

He is his own eternally clear blue sky, so beautiful and ethereal that one cannot help wanting to sink into it.

You is always like this, so much so that she and the people around her have become accustomed to him like this... He is never angry, never sad, and only smiles with joy.

But maybe people shouldn't be like this.

Breaking away from Yu's embrace, he slowly pushed her out of the room and into the outer world, where she met many people: Miyazono Kaoru and Arima Kousei, who were always arguing but had a good relationship; Yukinoshita, who appeared aloof but was actually gentle; Goto Ichiri, who was extremely socially anxious both in real life and online...

The closer she gets to someone, the more she can be infected by them and feel their joys, sorrows, anger and happiness. Even Mashiro Shiina, who has always been considered to have no extra expressions, will feel down sometimes.

But what about You? She didn't know.

She didn't know whether the other person really thought that he didn't feel sad because he suppressed his emotions, or whether he really did feel sad, but she had never seen it.

But no matter which one it is, I am a failure, right?

"So you want to get to know him better?"

"Yeah, I found myself always immersed in Yu's gentleness, but I never actually understood him."

"Then why don't you take the initiative to ask? You said that as long as you have doubts, he will definitely give you answers."

"I can not."

"..."

So you're letting me take this risk, right?! Yukinoshita Yukino glared at the other person unhappily.

"So can you give me your advice?"

"You've plotted against me like this, and you still want me to give you advice?" Yukinoshita Yukino frowned and snorted coldly.

"But you did get the answer you wanted, didn't you? I believe Yuu wouldn't hide this. Besides, you are Yukinoshita Yukino!"

"Yukinoshita Yukino, who is always right and disdains to lie." Yukinoshita Yukino seemed to hear the voice in her mind laughing at her madly.

"But why should I tell you that I am equally free to remain silent."

"I beg you."

"what?"

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at Kasugano Sora in shock. She didn't expect such words to come out of the other person's mouth. Was she really not possessed by another person?

"Are you OK?"

"I'm fine, Yukino, so could you give me a piece of advice? Please."

"..."

Yukinoshita Yukino was silent for a while and gave a negative answer.

"Thank you, Yukino."

"Haven't you considered that I might still refuse?"

"Yes, but..." Kasugano Sora put her index finger to her lips, thoughtfully saying, "But I saved you after all, so the worst that can happen is I'll just repay the favor."

"..."

You two really are siblings. The abacus beads hit her in the face, but Yukinoshita Yukino felt something was wrong. She seemed to have seen this inexplicable temperament of the other person somewhere.

"Are you okay..." Yukinoshita Yukino looked at Kasugano Sora with a hint of worry in her eyes.

"Ah, you finally figured it out, but this is hard to explain. Why don't you just experience it for yourself?"

As Kasugano Sora said this, she stretched out her jade finger and lightly touched Yukinoshita Yukino's forehead.

A cold feeling spread through her mind, like the feeling of waking up. Yukinoshita Yukino felt more awake than ever before, and all the previous inner conflicts and anxieties disappeared at this moment.

"This is……"

"A way to maintain rationality and not be affected by emotions. How about that? Very interesting, right?"

"Is that so?"

Yukinoshita Yukino silently felt herself and found that this method did not suppress the generation of emotions, but only suppressed her judgment of things.

Simply put, it is like adding water cooling to her brain so that she will not get carried away and do something that she will regret.

"No wonder he was like that at that time..." Yukinoshita Yukino couldn't help but recall Mu You who remained calm when facing her questioning.

Has he always been like this?

"what happened?"

After Yukinoshita Yukino told everything she had seen and heard, she found that although the girl opposite her was also smiling, for some reason she felt that the girl was becoming more and more dangerous.

"He promised me that he would never use this method again." Kasugano Sora explained the whole incident in detail to Yukinoshita Yukino.

Yukinoshita Yukino: "..."

There is no need to be so detailed, and why do you have to start by pushing the other person down and riding on him?

There were a lot of complaints at once, and Yukinoshita didn't know where to start, but seeing that the other party was eager to settle the score with Mu You, Yukinoshita Yukino felt that she still had to explain.

"Wait, I think I might have seen it wrong, he might really not have cared at the time."

"Does this matter?" Kasugano Sora asked back.

"Isn't that important?"

"Does it matter?"

"...Then can you please not let me take the blame?"

"But I saved you?"

"..." Although she knew that the other party was joking, Yukinoshita Yukino herself couldn't refute it. She also realized that the so-called "settling of accounts" might just be the hobby of the young couple.

She once again became a part of the other party's play, and was the scapegoat.

"I will feed you for the rest of my life for this kindness."

Kasugano Sora looked at Yukinoshita Yukino, who was holding her forehead with an expressionless face, and felt the change in her mood. A new emotion called joy was born from her heart and was captured by her.

"What if it's true?" Yukinoshita Yukino tried to make a last-ditch effort.

"Children who lie will be eaten~"

"You won't suffer any loss anyway."

"Of course, You is very fond of me."

Seeing the girl say such words with great certainty, and thinking about her indifferent attitude in front of her, Yukinoshita Yukino felt mixed emotions.

Two parts envy, one part jealousy, and seven parts reluctance.

At this time, her clear mind can not only clearly distinguish these emotions, but also point out the source of these emotions very objectively.

There was no attempt to hide or conceal anything. The answer that came to her mind was: it was over between her and Mu You.

Then, an even greater sadness ensued.

These emotions swept towards Yukinoshita Yukino like a black tide, trying to overwhelm her, but at the last moment they were separated by an invisible piece of glass, and their efforts were in vain.

Yukinoshita stood quietly on the other side of the glass, watching silently. She could sense these emotions but was not overly affected by them.

"You still seem confused?"

Yukinoshita Yukino nodded. Why did Mu You do this? Was it just to hide his true thoughts? But that guy had been showing it all along, so he hadn't been hiding anything at all. Why did it come to this?

"Actually, this is very simple, Yukino, let me ask you a question," Kasugano Sora looked at the girl in front of her with a loving smile.

"Yukinoshita Yukino, do you like Yuu?"
