Laid-Back Life in Tokyo: I Really Didn't Want to Work Hard Chapter 336 - 257 Tokyo University May Festival (3) ps: Happ

Wrong is wrong.

Uesugi Sakura wasn’t sure what he was thinking, but he kept buying food for her as they wandered around the school: dorayaki, wagashi, fried chicken, hand rolls, grilled chicken skewers...whatever he saw, he bought.

"The croquettes from the Agricultural Departnt are made with their own potatoes, they should be pretty good. I’ll get you another one."

"Sakura-kun."

Hanamaru Hanabi quickly reached out her small hand to tug at his sleeve and looked up, saying, "Hanabi can’t anymore...I can’t eat anymore..."

On the school path crowded with people, seeing the delicate-looking girl suddenly holding onto a man’s sleeve, many people sighed silently in their hearts.

Love always belongs to soone else, when will it be my turn!

Uesugi Sakura stopped, turned around to look at the girl holding onto his sleeve.

Her eyes were bright, a mix of cuteness and fragility, with short hair and two bunches hanging down to her chest, accented by a lily hairpin in the middle, giving her a graceful and gentle look.

"Wifey." Uesugi Sakura instinctively blurted out.

Hearing that address, Hanamaru Hanabi’s ears turned red, and she imdiately let go, twisting her fingers together, "N-now’s not the ti...."

Uesugi Sakura suddenly rembered his fiancée was still a shy girl; Hanabi had previously allowed him to hold her, trying to care for his feelings more.

When he cos ho later, she might also hold their child, smiling brightly and saying welco ho.

Watching her beauty, Uesugi Sakura also started smiling:

"If not now, then soon enough. It’s better to get used to it early, right?"

"No," Hanamaru Hanabi whispered, "if you say it too much, Sakura-kun will get tired of it later."

"How could I, wifey." Uesugi Sakura lifted the tone on the last word.

"Sakura-kun!" His call was so obvious that people around heard it. Hanamaru Hanabi was very angry, puffing up her cheeks.

"Alright, alright, I won’t say it." Uesugi Sakura knew she didn’t want to be the center of attention from passersby.

"Sakura-kun... always like this."

"Like what, teasing you on purpose?"

Hanamaru Hanabi nodded her little head at him.

Uesugi Sakura reached out to pat her head, "Because Hanabi rarely acts spoiled with , I can only make her seem cuter on purpose."

Hanamaru Hanabi shrank her neck, lightly clamping his hand, muttering softly:

"Sakura-kun just wants to bully Hanabi."

"Do you hate it?"

"Hate it! Hate it the most." Hanamaru Hanabi just said that.

Uesugi Sakura’s face showed a smile: "Saying one thing but aning another, it’s like how you clearly enjoy it but still refuse . Want to drink the coffee I made?"

"I do." Hanamaru Hanabi instinctively blurted out, then realized sothing was wrong, "No, I don’t want to."

She slowly lowered her head.

"If you want it, say so. Girls shouldn’t be so evasive; being overly cute sotis, you could get soone in trouble." Uesugi Sakura held her entwined hand, leading her towards the café on the second floor of the Central Cafeteria.

Her hand was small and cool, prompting him to squeeze it a bit more.

"Sakura-kun... just loves touching."

"It’s just holding hands; we’re engaged, after all."

"Sakura-kun still says that... even though last night while Hanabi was sleeping..."

"Did I?"

"Sakura-kun... so naughty..."

"Hanabi is naughty too. You clearly knew I was sneaky last night but didn’t open your eyes to stop ."

Last night Hanamaru Hanabi was actually too embarrassed to speak, and now she didn’t know how to refute him, so she just lowered her head and murmured softly: "Sakura-kun, H."

In the shade of the trees by Yasuda Lecture Hall, just after lunchti, Uesugi Sakura accepted the guitar handed over by Kyujuu Rika.

Kitagawa Sakisa, carrying a violin case: "Where did you two run off to this morning?"

"Playing around. Don’t you think there are lots of activities at the school festival? You can’t possibly see everything in one day." Uesugi Sakura said.

Not to ntion Hongo Campus, there’s also a tea ceremony and a rakugo performance by Sanshiro Pond, and the Engineering Departnt has large-scale science exhibitions; lots of kids are there.

"Today is our first ti performing together! How can you be so relaxed?"

From Kitagawa Sakisa’s subtle expressions and the faint breadcrumbs at the corner of her mouth, it was clear she had a fun morning.

Hanamaru Hanabi must have spent the morning with him, not paying attention to Kitagawa Sakisa, which made her a bit displeased.

Hanabi is her good friend, so she couldn’t say anything to her, so she only expressed her dissatisfaction to Uesugi Sakura.

All minor issues.

Uesugi Sakura looked at his watch, "There’s about two hours until our performance. Want to practice once now?"

Kyujuu Rika: "Are there any classrooms left?"

Uesugi Sakura: "There are, but you need to apply, or just use our classroom. Unfortunately, there’s no piano."

"Actually, I think there’s no need to rehearse again," Ayaka Rie interjected, then looked around at everyone, "Everyone worked hard enough last night and got ho in the middle of the night. The mory of the practice is still there, if we perform now it might disturb the state we had yesterday."

In the afternoon, the stage performance outside Yasuda Lecture Hall was about to start, and they decided to sit in the audience for now to enjoy others’ performances.

Guitar and violin are easy enough to manage, keeping them close by.

But things like pianos and drum kits are very cumberso to move, fortunately, the students of Tokyo University had prepared adequately.

Several commonly used instrunts were ready backstage, easy to grab and go.

And to show how prepared they were— they even had an upright piano ready; usually, an electronic one is sufficient for band performances.

This was an open-air stage with quite a variety of acts.

For instance, the first dance performance was by the girls from Nogizaka Research Institute.
