After breaking up, my ex asked me to win her back Chapter 175 174: Let me cover up the scent of Kiryu Hina

Kiryu Hina stood behind the tree, staring blankly at them.

Like soone unrelated.

A third party.

She turned her back to lean against the maple tree, slowly crouched down, closed her eyes, and tears fell in large drops.

Why, why is it always like this.

Failed again.

Did she go too far, oppress too much, let her need to control get the better of her?

Or is it that Ayakoji Chiyoko is better than her?

Were they, after all, dood not to understand each other anymore?

Mister Hikaru, why.....

Unforgivable, whether it's herself for forcing him to beco like this, or Kagura Hikaru himself, they're both unforgivable!

Kiryu Hina trembled as she took out her phone.

All she needed now was to take one picture to ruin Ayakoji Chiyoko's reputation and make her lose completely in the election.

If anyone were to ntion her lifting the ban on romance, they would say she did it so she and her boyfriend could openly display affection on campus; how could soone with such a selfish nature beco Student Council President.

After all, this was Kiryu Hina's ultimate purpose for encouraging Kagura Hikaru to date her.

After Kohinata Motoyo's interference, given Ayakoji Chiyoko's nature, she would certainly beco impatient to define her relationship with Kagura Hikaru.

And Kagura Hikaru, just as she wished, dated the latter, exposing her weaknesses.

Ayakoji Chiyoko had no experience in love, and although she might have strong self-control, a girl in love knows nothing of rationality—Kiryu Hina, as soone who had been through it herself, was well aware of this fact.

This was the tender trap she had set for Ayakoji Chiyoko for the final success in the election.

Everything was going smoothly.

Everyone was acting just as Kiryu Hina had imagined.

But in the end, it was she who had changed.

What a foolish woman.

She had actually pushed the man she liked towards her rival.

Kiryu Hina gripped her phone tightly, but no matter what, she couldn't press the shutter button.

Eventually, she gave up in despair, wiped away her tears, and fled.

Not far away, the kissing couple slowly parted.

Ayakoji Chiyoko leaned her head on Kagura's shoulder, touched her moist lips with slim fingers, and showed a stunning, tender smile.

"So this is what it feels like to kiss a lover....."

She turned her head and nuzzled her boyfriend, whispering, "Kagura, do you know why I like you?"

"I don't know... face?"

"Am I that shallow!" Ayakoji Chiyoko said irritably, hugging him a bit tighter, "Do you rember the girl you saved in elentary school?"

Kagura Hikaru's eyes widened slightly.

He rembered the past deeds Ayakoji Chiyoko had talked about during her speech at the school auditorium.

"Wait, you an you are....."

"That's right, I'm the girl who was bullied and then you saved . In a way, I'm also to bla for your hospitalization. If it weren't for , you wouldn't have spent two years in the hospital."

"But you once said that you t Kiryu Hina for the first ti because of your stepmother's arrangents."

"How do you rember sothing from so long ago?" Ayakoji Chiyoko said with a chuckle, "We weren't close back then, how could I possibly tell so much to a stranger. Besides, if people knew I and Kiryu Hina were classmates in elentary school, they would definitely ask all sorts of questions, and I'm too lazy to explain."

"..."

She really was.....

The heart that had already been torn at the edges peeled away a little more.

Kagura Hikaru certainly rembered her, the elentary school girl who was bullied.

She was isolated by everyone, bullied by classmates every day; it was painful to watch, yet there was no reason to intervene.

At that ti, Kiryu Hina, who was already his friend, suggested that he confront those bad kids, and she would get Sakata Asahi, who was in the sa class, to befriend that girl.

Driven by a heart of justice, Kagura Hikaru impulsively agreed to the proposal.

Alone, he struggled against the class's nasty crowd; while the girls were happily laughing together, he was battling every day.

During that ti, he occasionally wondered if Kiryu Hina was too heartless for dumping all the hardest tasks on him.

One person cannot defeat a group.

The bad students proved this to him.

Kagura Hikaru was hospitalized.

And the girl who was bullied made two friends, Kiryu Hina and Sakata Asahi, and graduated without knowing anything.

The day Kagura Hikaru was discharged, Kiryu Hina visited him in the hospital and talked about that girl.

After making friends, she beca much more outgoing and confident and went on to study in Capital City after graduating.

This was probably the best outco, and Kagura Hikaru had no regrets.

He had used two years of his life to save a girl's childhood; was not that a worthwhile investnt?

Nobody expected that six years later, when he and the girl t again, it would be in such a scene, such a relationship.

He had saved her once.

But he would push her into the abyss again.

All of it was just too cruel.

Feeling the warmth from Ayakoji Chiyoko's body, Kagura Hikaru's heart grew colder.

In the future, when the day ca for a confession, could he really bring himself to say it?

To say it was all a deception, that he did not love her.

What kind of expression would Ayakoji Chiyoko wear at that ti?

"Kagura, can you forgive ?"

The girl's voice brought his attention back.

"What?" Kagura Hikaru asked.

"I, the thing about you being hospitalized..."

In front of him, Ayakoji Chiyoko unguardedly showed her vulnerability.

She pressed her face against the side of his neck and whispered softly, "If back then, I had been strong enough to resist, maybe you wouldn't have..."

"I didn't mind that."

"I know that's the kind of person you are, but this one thing I must say." Ayakoji Chiyoko stood up, looking into his eyes, "This thank you, I've owed you for six years—thank you for saving , you're my hero."

Hero, hero...?

"But don't get wrong, I'm not dating you because of that."

Ayakoji Chiyoko smiled, touching Kagura Hikaru's face, her eyes sparkling, "I fell for you first, and it was only after that I found out you were the person who saved in elentary school. The order is very important."

Her smile was beautiful.

Like pure white light, it left nowhere for the ugliness in Kagura Hikaru's heart to hide.

God, what had he done to this girl...

"One more question, was that just now your first kiss?"

"..."

"It was for ." Ayakoji Chiyoko laughed as she tucked a strand of long hair behind her ear and leaned in again, "Let override Kiryu Hina's taste."

Not just Kiryu Hina, there's also Suse, so you should have kissed for a long ti now.

Kagura Hikaru wasn't foolish enough to voice that thought.

He closed his eyes, cherishing the mont from the bottom of his heart.

Lips t.

The soft touch, along with Ayakoji Chiyoko's love, was conveyed.

Thank you.

And, sorry.
