Chapter 551: Gift

While Yukinoshita’s words might hurt someone and make their lips twitch, Shishio had a well-endowed rod, which meant he also had a well-endowed heart. He decided to forgive this girl and thought having a small chest also made her heart small. Yet he didn’t say that out loud since he was afraid his car might crash into something if he dared to say that.

Yukinoshita wasn’t sure, but she kept staring at Shishio, feeling his expression was quite insulting.

Before long, they arrived at the department store that they had planned to visit.

Still, when they walked out of the car, Yukinoshita stared at him intently.

“What’s wrong?” Her gaze was so weird. It felt like she wanted to devour him somehow.

“What’s wrong with your pants? Do you want me to buy you pants later?” Yukinoshita asked while staring at his jeans pants.

“…It’s fashion.” Shishio was speechless.

“Really?” Yukinoshita was surprised.

“Well, do you think it is bad?” Shishio asked curiously.

“…No, it’s quite good.” Yukinoshita had never lied. No, she lied, but if possible, she didn’t want to lie. After all, even though Shishio’s ripped jeans quite surprised her, they looked good on him.

“Thanks.” Shishio smiled, then asked, “So what’s wrong with that scrutinized face? Do you have something on your mind?”

Yukinoshita stared at Shishio for a moment and said, “Shishio-kun, you can tell my taste is quite different from a normal high school girl. Do you think I can choose a good gift for Yuigama-san?”

“I don’t think so.”

“Huh?” Yukinoshita was confused.

“After all, the taste of your clothes is good. I think you look cute in that,” Shishio said.

“…I think this has nothing to do with Yuigamahama-san’s gift.” Yukinoshita quickly looked away, trying to hide the blush on her face. However, her expression started to change, and she said, “But Ebina-san or Miura-san will participate in the surprise party, right? What if they have a better gift?” Her expression showed a determination as if she didn’t want to lose.

“…..”

Shishio must admit that Yukinoshita was cute. Even her petty personality gave quite a nice gap. Still, he could only express his helplessness and said, “I understand. I’ll tell you about what the current high school likes.”

“Thank you.” Yukinoshita nodded with relief.

“However…”

“However?”

“I don’t think Yui-senpai is picky. As long as you give her a gift, I am sure that she’ll be happy to receive anything,” Shishio said.

“Do you think she’ll be happy if I give her an education book since we’re about to become 3rd-year in high school?” Yukinoshita asked. “Her score isn’t good after all. I’m afraid she might have trouble entering a university.”

“….How about I tell you how to choose a gift?” Shishio asked. After all, if Yukinoshita gave Yui an education book, he could imagine how Yui would cry.

“Please.” Even though Yukinoshita didn’t want to admit it, as a scumbag, Shishio was the best person she could talk to regarding this matter.

As they entered the department store, they could see the gaze of every person on the two of them.

Yukinoshita was, without a doubt, beautiful. If ten points were the most beautiful, then without a doubt, she would have nine points. Many people might disagree, and they would give her ten points, but most girls were around five points or six points, and by adding make-up, they would reach seven points.

On the other hand, Yukinoshita’s beauty was natural. She was a beautiful piece of work created by God. With that understanding, it could be seen how beautiful she was, right?

The only thing that made her not approached by the pick-up guy was because her expression had always been serious, and she had this frown on her face.

Shishio looked at Yukinoshita for a while and said, “Wait a moment, Senpai.”

“What’s wrong?” Yukinoshita frowned as she thought about what kind of gift she should give to Yui.

Shishio didn’t say anything and lightly rubbed her eyebrows and cheeks, loosening the muscle around them.

“…” Yukinoshita.

“Don’t frown, alright? We’re going to give Yui-senpai a gift. You should smile now,” Shishio said.

“…Do you think if I smile, I can give her a good gift?” Yukinoshita asked speechlessly.

“Of course!” Shishio nodded without hesitation.

“How?”

“Hmm… if I have to explain, then it is about our mindset.”

“Mindset?”

“Yeah.” Shishio nodded. “Now that you mentioned it, I haven’t told you how to choose a gift, right?”

“So, how did you choose a gift?”

“Frankly, there are no rules about choosing a gift, but as I have said previously, you need to set up a mindset.”

“What kind of mindset?”

“It’s about making the person that you want to give a gift to feel happy,” Shishio said. “I think as long as it is sincere and comes from the heart by thinking that this person will be happy by receiving this “gift.” Even if the gift is unique, I’m sure Yui-senpai will feel happy. Still, if you want to give a safe gift that anyone will like, I can also tell you how.”

Frankly, there were no rules to giving a gift.

As long as it was coming from the heart and thought about the opposite party, they would be happy.

Still, receiving a gift was something that made anyone happy, especially when that person had a feeling toward you.

Yukinoshita was in silence for a while, then looked at Shishio. “If it’s you, what’ll you give her?”

“Me?” Shishio was stunned, then he thought for a while. He thought about Yui’s stupid smile and said, “Maybe a hair tie?”

“Hair tie?” Yukinoshita was stunned for a moment before she nodded. “That’s a good choice.” It wasn’t that expensive and practical since Yui had always worn her hair in a bun, so it was quite a good choice.

After all, they were just friends, so it wasn’t good to choose an expensive gift.

Shishio thought a scrunchie or something similar was good.

“Or maybe glasses will be good,” Shishio said.

“Why glasses?” Yukinoshita asked.

“She’s kind of stupid, so she might appear smart if she wears one,” Shishio said.

“….” Yukinoshita.

“We’re not in a hurry anyway. How about we walk around the department store? You have a lot of time, right?” Shishio said.

“Well, that’s true.” Yukinoshita nodded since she knew that they didn’t need to be in a hurry.

“Alright, come on.” Shishio took Yukinoshita’s hand naturally and brought her to walk around.

Yukinoshita looked at her hand, which grabbed his strong hand helplessly, but she didn’t fight back and held it back with a blush on her face. “…Bastard.” She cursed in a low voice that could only be heard by her.

However, Shishio heard her voice, but he knew that this wasn’t the time yet.

Still, while they walked, many people let out depressed sighs.

The reason why they were stared at by many people wasn’t only because of Yukinoshita. Instead, it was because of Shishio.

If it wasn’t because of Yukinoshita, those hungry hyenas might have come and jumped into him.

Because of this, Yukinoshita moved closer and glanced at those people silently before she looked at Shishio again. He was like a fire, burnt like a purgatory, yet many women dared to jump out and were burnt by him.

‘Am I also one of them?’ Yukinoshita showed a depreciated smile before she shook her head since what was important was about Yui’s gift now.

The two walked together, looking at various things in the department store.

Still, out of all the stores, Yukinoshita stopped at the pet shop while staring at the cats intently.

Shishio squatted next to her and asked, “If you want to see a cat, I have one too, you know?” His cat, Hikari, which was given by Sorata in the past, was living happily under him. Even if Sorata appeared, she might not want to change the master now.

“…It’s not like I like a cat,” Yukinoshita murmured with a red face, denying reality.

“Yes, yes.” Shishio rolled his eyes but regretted his perfunctory reply since Yukinoshita tried to claw him like a cat. Still, if possible, instead of giving him a claw, he wanted to mate with her like a cat.

The two continued their journey until they stopped at one shop.

The shop sold various things from souvenirs, daily necessities, and even dolls.

Yukinoshita looked intently at the doll of the famous character Pan the Panda.

“…You’re not going to buy them?” Shishio asked.

“No, it’s not like I have an interest in it,” Yukinoshita said calmly, but her eyes kept looking at the doll.

Shishio looked at the doll for a while and said, “I have chosen my gifts. Wait a moment.”

“Okay.” Yukinoshita nodded while feeling slightly curious, but she didn’t intend to ask him since she was embarrassed. Instead, she picked an apron with a cat paw design and tried it on while looking at her appearance in the mirror.

“Sorry for the wait, Senpai.”

“Shishio-kun? Good timing. What do you think about this?” Yukinoshita turned and showed her appearance while wearing an apron.

“Cute.”

“…Thank you, but that’s not what I want to hear.” Yukinoshita sighed and felt her face was hot while wondering why this guy had always made her heart jump.

“Still, if you want to buy it for Yui-senpai, you should get the frilly one.”

“Hmm… that’s true.” Yukinoshita agreed and picked up the pink frilly apron. However, she didn’t let go of the cat paw apron and said, “I’ll pay it first. Wait here.”

“Okay.” Shishio didn’t mention how Yukinoshita was going to buy the cat paw apron since she knew this girl was tsundere. He waited for a while before Yukinoshita came. Still, he was quite speechless when Yukinoshita came since he saw many women quickly dispersed and walked away regretfully.

“Sorry for the wait.”

“You know? I should come with you,” Shishio said helplessly since he was about to be approached by women. He then held Yukinoshita’s hand naturally, causing them to move away.

“….” Yukinoshita was also speechless by what had happened before, so she naturally held his hand tighter, making many women sullenly walk away.

“Thanks.”

“…Is this always happening?”

“Well, yeah.” After he got the “Enhanced Charm,” his situation worsened.

Well, should it be better?

Anyway, the woman he should be focused on was Yukinoshita, not others.

“Should we eat something? I am hungry,” Shishio said.

“Okay.” Yukinoshita nodded and asked, “What do you want to eat? I’ll treat you.”

“Are you sure?”

“I have troubled you after all, so I’ll treat you,” Yukinoshita said.

Shishio was in silence for a moment and felt that it was really great to have a rich girlfriend.

“I have heard there is a good okonomiyaki store here,” Shishio said.

“Okonomiyaki? Alright.” Yukinoshita agreed.

The two walked toward the store while holding hands as usual, but suddenly…

“Eh? Huh? Is that you, Shishio-kun? Yukino-chan?”

“…….”

The two stopped and saw someone they didn’t want to see.

“What a coincidence,” Haruno said with a smile, but her eyes quickly squinted while looking at their hands that held against each other. “Are you two dating?” She stared at the two, waiting for the answer like a boa that was about to jump into its prey,

“……”
