Tokyo life starting with painting

Chapter 108 is so popular (eighth update!)

Of course, this morning was an unusual one not only for Higashinoji, but also for Yumi Takahashi and Aoi Fujiwara.

The two of them felt extremely uncomfortable yesterday because of Higashinoji's "The Lonely Gourmet" poisoning late at night. When they came to school today, Takahashi Yumi even wanted to criticize Higashinoji's behavior.

But

"R-Ryuka?" Takahashi Yumi stared at Konoe Ryoka in front of her with dumbfounded eyes, trying her best to open her mouth wide, as if she had seen a ghost.

It wasn't that she was making a fuss, but that the Konoe Ryoka in front of her had changed so much after just one Saturday and Sunday.

No, it’s not a huge change.

Konoe Ryoka just trimmed her bangs that blocked her to the right, as if her whole person had changed.

With her thin eyebrows and big, clean eyes that are dark and bright, the face that Aoi Fujiwara has always praised is fully displayed.

The facial features that seemed ordinary before, now reveal a completely contrasting feeling when they are all displayed.

Yes, the usual Konoe Ryoka looks rustic, clumsy, and not good at talking, so she doesn't attract attention at all.

And it is precisely because of her usual sense of rusticity that she brings out her stunning look now.

Yes, stunning.

This is what Yumi Takahashi thinks.

Even she was a little envious of Konoe Ryoka's face.

You must know that Yumi Takahashi herself is not bad in appearance, and due to long-term kendo training, she has a vibrant youthful feeling. She has also been secretly stuffed with many love letters by boys since she was a child.

It's just that all these love letters were lost after being read by Fujiwara Aoi - you know that Takahashi Yumi is stupid and doesn't know what love is at all. She always knows how to be silly and happy there. When did she really get cheated by those boys? I don’t even know.

That's why Takahashi Yumi felt a little bit envious.

"Is it very, very strange? Yumi?" Konoe Ryoka's legs rubbed restlessly, a blush appeared on her fair white face, her eyes looked up, and she asked Takahashi Yumi anxiously.

Isn't it strange that she went to the barber shop with great determination and it was Higashino-san who said she looked good like this?

The more she thought about it, the more unsettled she became, her face turned red and she looked like she was going to cry.

"Huh? Weird?" Takahashi Yumi was stunned, and then commented cheerfully: "No, I think you look very good like this, Ryoka. It feels like you have changed your face and become a new person."

Before she could finish her words, Fujiwara Aoi pinched her mouth: "Don't use words randomly if you don't know how to use them."

After warning Takahashi Yumi, Fujiwara Aoi turned around and looked at Konoe Ryoka strangely.

"Lianghua, haven't you always been afraid of showing your face? Why today?"

Yes, Konoe Ryoka has always been afraid of new things. Even the skirt of her school uniform is still an old-style retro mid-length skirt - the kind that can cover her knees.

Did Konoe Ryoka change her image without saying a word?

Fujiwara Aoi found it incredible.

"It was Higashino-kun who told me that it looks good like this." Konoe Ryoka cautiously looked around, and then continued with a red face: "But it's my misunderstanding that I'm so shy? I always felt like everyone was so shy along the way. Staring at me.”

She lowered her head and looked at her toes, her voice frustrated: "Is it really still too ugly?"

""Fujiwara Aoi, Takahashi Yumi.

Stop, stop.

Are you calling this ugly? Then Yumi and I have to dig a hole and crawl in?

But Fujiwara Aoi also knew that the other party changed his image for Higashino Tsukasa.

For a moment, Fujiwara Aoi actually felt like 'someone finally recognized her piglet'.

"No, it's very beautiful." She replied hurriedly, calming the mood of Konoe Ryoka in front of her: "If you don't believe me, you can ask Higashino-san later."

As soon as she finished saying this, Takahashi Yumi on the other side stood up: "Huh? Ask Mr. Higashino? That's okay. I saw Mr. Higashino just now. I'll go over and call him."

After saying this, Takahashi Yumi immediately trotted a long distance ahead.

At this time, Fujiwara Aoi and Konoe Ryoka saw a young man standing not far in front. He had clean short hair, gentle eyes, and looked gentle.

Isn't that Higashinoji?

Higashinoji was obviously stunned by Yumi Takahashi who suddenly rushed over, but he didn't know what Yumi Takahashi said to him. He soon smiled and faced Aoi Fujiwara and Ryo Konoe in front of him. He waved to them to come over.

Woo——

The person they were discussing just now suddenly appeared in front of her, and Konoe Ryoka felt as if there were roots under her feet, unable to move at all.

Seeing this, Fujiwara Aoi shook her head helplessly and pulled the other person towards Higashinoji.

You can't just stand here all morning, right? There are still classes to attend.

"Konoe-san, Fujiwara-san, good morning." Higashinoji greeted the two of them.

"Good morning" Konoe Ryoka lowered her head and greeted Higashinoji tremblingly.

To this, Higashinoji just smiled and teased: "Is there something on your face? Konoe-san?"

"No, no!"

Konoe Ryoka reluctantly raised her head, feeling ashamed and angry to death

But while she was shy, she was also a little confused.

Obviously, there was no big problem when talking to Fujiwara Aoi and Takahashi Yumi just now.

But now when she talked to Higashinoji, she found that she couldn't seem to hold her tongue straight, and her words were stammered.

"It's actually pretty good-looking, Konoe-san, show some confidence."

Tonoji smiled and encouraged, but at the same time he also sighed.

Sure enough, preschool education still needs to be done well. The reason why Konoe Ryoka lacks self-confidence must be due to being bullied by Konoe Ryoto when she was a child.

But Higashinoji was right, Konoe Ryoka was really beautiful, and her whole person looked much cleaner after changing her image.

"Really?" After hearing Higashinoji's compliment, Konoe Ryoka pursed her lips and smiled quietly.

For some reason, the compliments I heard from Fujiwara Aoi and Takahashi Yumi were not as effective as Higashinoji's.

"I think so too." Takahashi Yumi on the side saw Konoe Ryoka shyly smiling, and said with some amusement, "No wonder Mr. Higashino likes Ryoka. If I were a boy, I would also like Ryoka."

"You are the only one who talks a lot." Fujiwara Aoi pinched Takahashi Yumi's mouth again.

Really.

Originally, the atmosphere between Higashinoji and Konoe Ryoka was pretty good, but when Takahashi Yumi said this, Konoe Ryoka's shyness came out again, and her face seemed to be burned through.

As red as a ripe crab.
