Anime: Desolate Darkness

......

After asking that question, Liuyin lowered her head again, clutching the hem of her skirt tightly with both hands, looking extremely uneasy.

Kimura Takumi saw it all.

"Literally." He said in a very calm tone.

"Can...can you explain it more clearly?" Liuyin choked.

Kimura Takumi did not refuse and said straightforwardly: "I have..."

"Wait a minute!" Liuyin covered his chest with both hands and screamed heartbreakingly.

After being interrupted, Kimura Takumi hesitated for a moment before closing his half-open mouth.

"..."

The scene fell silent. The atmosphere was subtly strange. The only sound in the quiet office could be heard except for Ryūin's heavy breathing.

Not long after, Liuyin took the lead in breaking the deadlock.

"Teacher Kimura, can you listen to me for a moment?" She raised her head, her eyes were red and tears kept falling.

Kimura Takumi didn't say anything, but nodded.

Seeing this, Liuyin took two deep breaths and adjusted his state.

The next moment, her eyes suddenly became firm, and she said with an extremely serious expression: "I like Mr. Kimura!"

"..."

Kimura Takumi waited quietly for two seconds and found that the other party did not follow up.

It seems that these few words are the other party's limit... simple and clear, without any lyricism.

"I..."

As soon as Kimura Takumi started to speak, Ryune interrupted him again.

"No need for an answer!" She closed her eyes and yelled, then suddenly opened them, staring straight at the other person, and said excitedly: "I just... I just want to express that I like Mr. Kimura!"

"Answer or something..."

"unnecessary......"

"I see." Kimura Takumi sighed.

Liuyin's expression changed constantly, as if she was struggling internally, but she didn't say anything in the end. She just nodded slightly and responded, "Yeah."

Kimura Takumi calmly said: "Thank you for your love, Ryune-san."

Liuyin didn't want the other party to see her ugly face, so she turned her head and said, "You're welcome..."

If I had known...I should have said it earlier...

She was filled with resentment, but dared not show it.

After a few seconds of silence, Kimura Takumi stood up, turned around and looked behind him. His sight passed through the open window and fell on the students walking on the campus.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly and he chuckled: "If possible, I really hope that Liuyin-san can save this sentence for me after graduation."

"Eh?" Ryune was stunned, her tearful face facing Kimura Takumi's back.

"Mr. Kimura, what do you mean by this?"

"It's nothing. This is the literal meaning." Kimura Takumi turned around, walked around the office, raised his right hand, and used his index finger to gently wipe away the tears from the corners of the other person's eyes.

His movements were gentle and there was a faint smile on his face.

This situation made Liuyin temporarily ignore her sadness, and her little face blushed again.

But she also realized that the other person was a gentle person. Now that she was crying, the other person's behavior towards her might just be normal and didn't mean anything...

"Mr. Kimura, please don't do this... I will... misunderstand."

She said this but did not move her face away, allowing Kimura Takumi to touch her.

"is it?"

……

More than ten minutes later, when Ryune came out of Kimura Takumi's office, the look on her face was not sadness, but a smile?

And her smile was not a forced smile, but a smile that came from the joy in her heart.

Kitagawa, Umi and the other two who were waiting for the result at the corner outside were all confused when they saw this scene.

They were waiting here with a nervous mood, and were even prepared to comfort each other and ask them not to be sad, but what was the situation at the moment?

Accepted?

Then why do Liuyin's eyes have obvious signs of crying?

Refused?

Then why can Liuyin laugh so happily?

Unable to come up with an answer, Kitagawa Umi simply asked the person involved, "Well... now, what's going on?"

"Yes, yes! Did you reject or accept it?" Compared to her euphemism, Dakong was very straightforward.

Facing the curious gazes of the three, Liu Yin smiled and wiped away the remaining tears on her face, and replied mysteriously, "I don't know."

"Huh~?" Kitagawa, Umi and the other two were stunned.

I do not know what that means?

Rejection is rejection, acceptance is acceptance, how can you not know the result?

"Ryune, you are so mean!" Kitagawa Umi pretended to be angry and began to blame the other party, "We have waited for you for so long, and you didn't even want to tell us the result!"

Her expression looked very serious, as if she was really angry with Ryune.

Understanding what she meant, Ozora and Sugaya Noha beside her quickly agreed.

"That's right!" said Dakong.

"Not good!" Noha Sugaya nodded vigorously.

"Eh? How can you be like this?" Seeing the three people looking like they were united in hatred of the enemy, Liuyin couldn't help but widen her eyes, "Maybe I was rejected, and I was afraid that you would worry, so I didn't want to tell you."

"If that's the case, you should have said it out loud." Kitagawa Umi crossed her arms and complained, "If you don't say it, we won't even know whether we should comfort you or not."

Liuyin had nothing to say about this and could not refute the other party at all.

"Okay then, but you have to be mentally prepared." Liu Yin showed a trace of helplessness on his face, and without waiting for the three people to respond, he continued: "I was rejected."

"What?" Kitagawa Umi and others showed surprise on their faces when they heard this.

"How could this happen?" Dakong couldn't help but ask, "If you were rejected, then why are you laughing?"

"Didn't I say that just now? I'm afraid you'd worry." Liuyin chuckled.

What she said made sense, but the three of them felt that something was wrong. However, they couldn't answer exactly what was wrong.

Noticing the suspicion in their eyes, which clearly showed that they didn't believe him, Liu Yin quickly changed the subject, "Let's not talk about this anymore, shall we go to KTV?! This time I want to show off my singing skills!"

After saying that, she took Kitagawa Umi's arm and strode towards the stairs.

Her current actions undoubtedly confirmed the doubts in the hearts of the three people.

Ryuin is lying!

The three of them got the answer at the same time and looked at each other tacitly, but Liuyin, who was walking in front, was completely unaware of the situation behind.
