Becoming a life winner from infancy-Chapter 569 - 452 The Secret of Girls

"That place..."

As Xia Nuo gazed into the sky, a silver-white moon hung high, its radiant light casting a silvery sheen over the earth.

"Is it on the Moon?"

"Mhm." Xia Nuo nodded.

"Did you agree to confess your feelings on the Moon?"

"Ah, not really..."

Xia Nuo shook her head, "We just agreed to go to the Moon together. But that was a very long time ago."

"Then you can't say he forgot!"

Reina retorted, "You You had always been helping you to get to the Moon."

Xia Nuo tilted her head, "But do you think watching a meteor shower or going to the Moon, which one is more romantic?"

"Uh..."

"Such an important thing as a confession should definitely be done in the most romantic place, right?"

"That's... indisputable."

"To think that a once-in-30-years Leonid meteor shower would be more romantic than going to the Moon, I'm really angry about it. I feel that with You You's taste, he definitely wouldn't make such a basic mistake."

"Can't you focus on some normal things..."

However, if Asai Reina were to confess to Fang You, she'd probably choose a fireworks festival.

The sense of ceremony is extremely important to all girls.

Xia Nuo spoke as she started twiddling her fingers, "And... I have always been the proactive one from childhood, so confessing... it should naturally be me doing it, I'm really not used to You You taking initiatives."

"So, I had always planned the occasion for my confession, and I made a lot of efforts for it. We even agreed to design our own rocket and go together."

"But now all the plans are messed up, I was dumbfounded when You You asked me, so I instinctively refused."

Asai Reina sighed, "Then why don't you just tell You You now?"

"No, no, no..."

Xia Nuo waved her hands frantically, her expression serious, "It's already too late!"

"You're not shy, are you?"

"It's not that... it's for another reason!"

Xia Nuo covered her face, showing an embarrassed look, "Because I did something really, very unfair to You You, I'm actually so nervous now that I don't know how to face him..."

"What do you mean?"

"It's about those lies I told."

Xia Nuo released her hands, her eyes filled with remorse.

"I promised him I'd never lie to him, and I've failed to keep my promise."

So that's why you can't bring yourself to say it...

Asai Reina thought for a while, unsure of what to advise.

In the end, "never lying to someone" is almost impossible to achieve; Nuo Nuo had likely set such high standards for herself and her relationship with You You.

Asai Reina patted Xia Nuo's shoulder, "Just admit your mistake and apologize to him. You've known each other for so long, he won't hold it against you..."

"But, if I say it now, I won't be able to confess to him on the Moon!"

Xia Nuo rubbed her face, "You can't imagine how sad You You was then; I was also extremely heartbroken. Actually, if my dad had died, I think I'd feel just as devastated!"

...

...

Pfft—

Hahaha!

Listening to Xia Nuo's story, Asai Reina suddenly couldn't help but laugh loudly while holding her stomach.

Seeing her laugh, Xia Nuo wasn't annoyed; instead, she propped her chin and watched her intently, maintaining a stable mood:

"You seem very happy?"

"Of course, I'm happy!"

Asai Reina rubbed the tears from her laughter, "Seeing you be this silly suddenly makes me feel like you're just a 16-year-old girl too, and the distance between us doesn't seem so far anymore..."

Xia Nuo smiled and gave a salute, "It's an honor to entertain Lady Shinozaki!"

"Alright, don't say such embarrassing things..."

Asai Reina, already cracked up by Xia Nuo, grabbed her and asked, "So, what do you plan to do next?"

"I want to cool off for a while longer before I talk about confessing again."

"How long do you need to cool off?"

Xia Nuo said, "Until I finish building the rocket."

"Isn't that cooling-off period a bit too long? How many years will it take to build a rocket!"

Xia Nuo sighed, "I wish I could speed up the process, but there's nothing I can do; the road to science isn't built overnight."

Suddenly, Xia Nuo's expression turned melancholic, "But... it might all be pointless now."

"We can't... go back anymore."

"You You and I can no longer return to the innocent childhood friendship we once had."

"Why would you say that..."

Asai Reina was instantly puzzled, given Nuo Nuo's confidence in her relationship with You You, she would never show such a disheartened expression.

Unless...

Unless—

Unless You You did something that totally prohibits turning back.

Does that mean childhood friendship lost to an unforeseen love, has he fallen for another woman?

Judging from Nuo Nuo's behavior these past days, it might explain it...

Wait, wait a minute... No way...

Who could possibly break their bond?

Then what am I! I'm the unforeseen childhood friend!

That kind of thing... please don't let it be true!

Asai Reina waited anxiously for Xia Nuo's response, and at this moment, Xia Nuo also slowly began to speak:

"Actually, because I had made You You really sad back then, to comfort his feelings, I came up with a temporary romantic training program that allowed us to skip the confession phase."

"Romantic training? What... what is that?"

"Romantic training is—"

After Xia Nuo briefly explained some of her regular interactions with Fang You, Asai Reina, with her face flushed, interrupted Xia Nuo's rhetoric.

"Okay, you can stop talking! It's too much for me!"

I'm such an idiot...

And I was still worried about you...

I really deserve to die! Really deserve to die!

Asai Reina felt as if she were personally devastated.

"It's okay, this is just what normal couples do..."

Xia Nuo pouted and mumbled, "But indeed, this is something you'd do in a romantic relationship, so even if we confess later, we won't have the fluttering feelings that come with a fresh confession."

"Actually, I feel like there's a part of me that doesn't want to change, which is why I subconsciously refused at that time."

"For so many years, I always felt that I would be the one to confess; You You would never take the initiative to confess to me, and he knows that I will definitely confess to him."

Xia Nuo thought for a moment. "So, I can't say it was completely deceiving him."

"Yes, breaking past habits can be frightening..."

But it's not completely impossible, is it?

You were once a very decisive and brave person, Nuo Nuo.

What changed you?

But now is not the time to dwell on this...

If I can set an example.

Asai Reina mulled over everything she had experienced recently, her gaze becoming resolute.

Then she took Xia Nuo's hand.

"All right, Nuo Nuo, come with me now."

"Where to?"

Xia Nuo seemed resistant. "I told you all this because I consider you my best friend next to Ah Yu. You understand what I mean."

"Why can't you just lie to me for once... Okay, I'm not forcing you to confess to You You, it's not about him, you'll see when we get there."

Asai Reina dragged Xia Nuo to Class S's campsite, where they could hear the faint singing from afar.

Ever since Fang You discovered that singing could increase Spirit Value, Class S had used such bonfire sing-alongs to boost their Spirit Value at night.

At that moment, Fang You, clad in mythical gear, sat by the bonfire, enjoying the tranquil and serene night.

Asai Reina took a deep breath, then stepped forward and said to Ai Wei, who was organizing the singing:

"Class President, may I sing a bit? I'm quite confident in my singing."

"Sure, you're welcome to."

Ai Wei was well aware of Asai Reina's background, but she gracefully did not expose her.

At this time, Xia Nuo also voluntarily sat down next to Fang You.

Although she was the president of Class D, since Class S and Class D had now formed an alliance, it was no longer unusual.

"What is Reina planning to do?"

"I'm not sure..."

Xia Nuo looked at Fang You's hand, then unconsciously extended her right hand.

"Are you cold?"

Fang You naturally took Xia Nuo's hand.

You You's touch.

She still had it.

But...

It was a disgraceful possession.

Xia Nuo looked up at Fang You.

"Does it feel much different from holding hands in reality?"

Xia Nuo asked.

"Not really."

"Speaking of which, are all our actions and words in this virtual reality game recorded?"

"That wouldn't happen; these virtual reality games have privacy protection mechanisms, and you'd be alerted if you enter a monitored area."

"That's good."

Xia Nuo seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, piquing Fang You's curiosity.

"What were you discussing with Reina?"

"That... it's a girl's secret."

Xia Nuo made a shushing gesture, then spread out the hand she was holding with Fang You; he cooperated and intertwined his fingers tightly with hers.

"You You."

"Hmm?"

"If I say—"

At that moment, the stage burst with the song of Asai Reina.

"You are still as gentle"

"Offering me your warmest smile"

"In the sultry summer"

"Bringing a cool breeze"

Asai Reina's voice was naturally sweet and pure, but this time, it was distinctively recognizable.

Like a proud twin-tailed lady lowering her head, bashfully unable to look directly at you, softly conveying her tender affections, pretending nonchalance but eagerly awaiting your acceptance.

No—

Rather than saying it's Reina,

It would be more accurate to say—

Shiina Nao!
