Chapter 146: A Miscalculation-She Actually Agreed!

Chapter 146: A Miscalculation-She Actually Agreed!

Suzune returned holding the document envelope, her pretty face visibly downcast. It seemed Manabu's cold attitude toward her had left her rather disappointed.

Resting his cheek on one hand, Yuto watched her silently sit back down.

"What's wrong, Horikita? You look like some poor girl who just got dumped by a terrible boyfriend."

That instantly revived Suzune.

She glared at Yuto with her foxlike eyes.

"Shimizu Yuto! What nonsense are you saying?!"

"Hey, this is a library. Don't speak so loudly, Horikita. You'll disturb everyone studying," Yuto said with a smile.

"..."

Suzune angrily closed her mouth, though she continued glaring sharply at him.

"If you keep looking at me that frighteningly, I might decide not to tell you what your brother just said to me."

"I don't care." Suzune raised her chin proudly.

"Your brother talked to me about you."

"...Please tell me."

The proud snow fox immediately lowered her head.

"You care now?"

"Mm..."

Perhaps from embarrassment-or because Yuto had completely caught her weakness-a faint blush appeared on Suzune's cheeks.

Yuto enjoyed the adorable contrast for a moment before handing her his phone.

"Open the recording. I recorded my entire conversation with your brother."

"You actually did something like that?!" Suzune stared at him in disbelief.

What was wrong with this person?

Whenever her brother was involved, Yuto was either filming him or secretly recording him!

"Don't look at me like that. If you dislike it so much, don't listen," Yuto replied irritably.

"No, I don't dislike it. I'm simply shocked."

Suzune quickly accepted his phone, then opened the audio file with a mixture of nervousness and anticipation.

The recording was not particularly long and soon ended.

After hearing Manabu's evaluation of her, as well as his disappointment, Suzune stared blankly ahead.

"An unpolished gemstone..."

"I never imagined Nii-san thought so highly of me. Before this, he even said that being placed in Class D made me an embarrassment to him..."

"That's because your brother is an extreme tsundere," Yuto said with a smile.

"This school is also unlike ordinary schools, so he originally wanted you expelled and sent away from this strange competitive environment."

"In other words, his concern for you simply comes out in a twisted way."

"Mm..."

Suzune nodded gently.

Since she did not object, it appeared she had accepted that her brother was indeed an extreme tsundere.

She pressed play again.

She wanted to hear the recording one more time.

Manabu's usual treatment of her differed so greatly from what he had said in private that Suzune needed to listen several times before she could truly believe it.
