Riko Ebisawa looked at Jōichirō and said seriously, like a caring older sister:
"I think Saiba-senpai should find someone to date before graduation. Otherwise, spending time with Dōjima-senpai will cause misunderstandings. There are already rumors spreading in the academy that Saiba-senpai doesn't like girls, and that Dōjima-senpai is probably your favorite..."
As soon as Riko Ebisawa said this, the members of the Polar Star Dormitory burst out laughing.
Dōjima Gin's head was filled with black lines,
And Jōichirō said angrily:
"How dare you ruin my reputation, Riko? Tell me who started this rumor, or I'll beat him to death... Even if I were blind, I would never choose Gin!"
Gin Dōjima slapped Jōichirō on the back of the head immediately.
"Seiichirō, what are you talking about? Do you think I'm interested in you?"
"Riko, next time you hear someone talking about this, let me know and I'll show you how to deal with it..."
When Riko Ebisawa saw how angry both of them were, she laughed even more wildly.
"Alright, seniors, please stop blaming the rumor spreaders!"
"In the end, this happened for a reason!"
"Every year, Dōjima-senpai and Saiba-senpai receive love letters from girls, but you never respond. Instead, you're always seen together... It's natural for others to misunderstand..."
Jōichirō looked at Riko and suddenly said:
"Hey, Riko, weren't you the one who spread these rumors?"
"How could that be? How could I dare to make up stories about the two great seniors? I'm a very discreet person, and I wouldn't spread rumors..."
Dinner finally ended in a joyful atmosphere.
After Ryūga washed the dishes, he entered Azami Nakamura's room as they had agreed.
As soon as he entered, Azami Nakamura pulled him to the sofa.
"Ryūga-san, there's something I want to ask you..."
"Nakamura-san, what is it?"
Azami Nakamura's face turned red. He hesitated for a long time before finally mustering his courage...
He took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Ryūga.
"Ryūga, can you please give this to Mana Nakiri on my behalf?"
"Give it to Mana Nakiri?"
When Ryūga heard what Azami Nakamura said, a beautiful figure suddenly appeared in his mind.
..........
Mana Nakiri is a third-year middle school student at Totsuki Academy.
It's worth mentioning that she and Ryūga are classmates.
Compared to the former Ryūga, who had little presence, Mana Nakiri can be said to be a well-known figure at Totsuki Academy.
First, Mana Nakiri's father is the current head of Totsuki Academy, a man known as the Great Demon of the culinary world, Nakiri Senzaemon.
In addition to her family background, Mana Nakiri causes a stir in the school—and even in the culinary world—purely on her own merit.
Mana Nakiri possesses a unique talent called the "God Tongue." It can be said that from birth, she attracted the attention of the entire Japanese culinary world.
Moreover, Mana Nakiri's appearance is refined.
In academies of that era, there wasn't a strong concept of beauty rankings, but Ryūga could clearly sense that if Mana Nakiri ranked second in the beauty rankings of Totsuki Academy girls, no one would dare to claim first place.
Mana Nakiri has a beautiful face and a slim figure, along with her natural talent and wealthy family background... at the academy, she can be described as the goddess of goddesses.
Mana Nakiri and Azami Nakamura are not in the same class, but due to her wide fame—let alone Azami Nakamura—even Dōjima and Saiba know her...
ِAlso, Azami Nakamura is one year older than Mana Nakiri. Although they had heard each other's names, they had never communicated or interacted closely.
But a month ago, the academy organized an exchange meeting between high school and middle school students. The goal was to give outstanding high school students a chance to share their experiences with middle school students...
The class that Azami Nakamura was responsible for communicating with happened to be the one Ryūga was in.
Since then, Azami Nakamura and Mana Nakiri had the opportunity to interact face-to-face.
So Azami Nakamura fell into one-sided love!
Ever since he met Mana Nakiri in the class exchange, he completely fell for her.
Nakamura was deeply affected by every aspect of Mana Nakiri—her kindness, elegance, nobility, and cheerfulness.
Although Nakamura admires Mana Nakiri greatly, the latter currently only sees Nakamura as an ordinary student.
Although they interacted during the class exchange, it was just interaction between the students and they did not even talk to each other.
So they don't know each other.
Then Nakamura hasn't mustered the courage to confess to Mana Nakiri, so he came to see Ryūga today for that reason only.
The letter that Azami Nakamura handed to Ryūga was actually a love letter he had carefully thought about all night before finally writing it... And since Ryūga and Mana Nakiri were classmates, Nakamura thought of asking Ryūga to pass this letter to Mana Nakiri.
After understanding the whole story, Ryūga was also confused...
You want me to help deliver a love letter to Mana Nakiri?
Are you kidding me?
