"Shinomiya-kun, it's your turn."
As his words fell.
Kaguya Shinomiya, frozen in mid-air, glanced at Lin Bai, then at Manabe Kazuya, and said calmly:
"My name is Kaguya Shinomiya, and I am in Class 1-A. I have been invited to serve as the vice president of the student council."
"It's my turn, it's my turn."
As soon as Kaguya Shinomiya finished introducing herself, Chika Fujiwara next to her raised her hand with a grin and said:
"My name is Fujiwara Chika, and I'm Kaguya's best friend."
"My class is Class G of the first year. I accepted Lin's invitation—no, I mean the president's invitation—to serve as the student council secretary."
"Your turn, Manabe."
After she finished speaking, she turned to Manabe.
His smile was full of energy.
Under the watchful eyes of Lin Bai and the other two, Manabe smiled slightly and said:
"Hello, my name is Kazumi Manabe, and I am in Class H of the first year. I have been invited to serve as the student council's accountant."
"Hello, Manabe-kun."
Fujiwara Chika looked at Manabe Kazuya and greeted him with a smile.
"Hello, Fujiwara-san."
Looking at the friendly Fujiwara Chika, Manabe Kazuya couldn't help but smile and respond to her in a friendly manner.
Then Manabe looked at Kaguya Shinomiya, who had a blank expression and seemed to want to keep everyone at arm's length.
Greet him with a smile:
"Hello, Shinomiya-kun."
"Hello, Manabe-kun."
Kaguya Shinomiya looked at Kazuya Manabe.
Although his facial expression remained unchanged and his tone was very calm, he still responded politely to the other party.
clap clap.
At this moment, Lin Bai clapped his hands and said:
"Alright, now that we've gotten to know each other a little, let's leave the rest for later."
"Now everyone is starting to get familiar with their jobs."
"Wow, so fast!"
Fujiwara Chika was a little surprised and couldn't help but look at Lin Bai:
"President, is it the first day of work? There shouldn't be anything else to do during this time, right?"
Chapter 030 The Promise with Kaguya Shinomiya
"You're right."
Lin Bai glanced at Fujiwara Chika, smiled, and said:
"How about this, to welcome you to the student council, I'll treat you to karaoke afterwards, how about it?"
"Really? I agree!"
"Thank you, President. You are very generous."
Fujiwara Chika, upon hearing this, raised her hand in agreement, her interest piqued.
Where is Manabe-kun?
Lin Bai smiled slightly and looked at Manabe Kazuya.
"Okay, thank you, Chairman."
Manabe hesitated for a moment, then agreed to Lin Bai's suggestion.
So everyone turned their attention to Kaguya Shinomiya.
Fujiwara Chika looked on expectantly:
"Kaguya-san, you're coming with us, right?"
"..."
Despite being watched by the three, Kaguya Shinomiya's expression remained seemingly unchanged.
She was about to refuse.
Just then, Lin Bai suddenly said with a smile:
"Perhaps Shinomiya wants to go back to her studies, after all, she still has a goal to surpass."
He just finished speaking.
Kaguya Shinomiya, whose expression had been blank, slightly moved her eyes.
Looking at Lin Bai, his calm gaze seemed to sharpen.
Was he deliberately provoking him?
"The goal to surpass?"
Fujiwara Chika blinked, a hint of confusion flashing in her eyes.
He glanced at Lin Bai, then at Kaguya Shinomiya, a look of intense curiosity creeping onto his face.
Manabe pushed up his glasses with his index finger and watched silently.
Although she didn't say anything, she seemed a little curious.
After all, mutual understanding is the foundation for improving relationships.
"May I?"
Lin Bai looked at Kaguya Shinomiya.
"can."
Shinomiya Kaguya nodded slightly.
So Lin Bai smiled and said, "The goal she wants to surpass is actually far away, but right in front of her."
"Far away, yet so close at hand?"
Fujiwara Chika and Manabe were slightly taken aback upon hearing this.
Then, as if struck by a sudden thought, the two looked at Lin Bai.
Fujiwara Chika: "President, this target isn't you, is it?"
"Yes, it's me."
Lin Bai smiled and nodded.
He then continued, "I made a promise with Shinomiya to get her to join the student council."
"What agreement?"
Chika Fujiwara expressed her curiosity.
Manabe didn't say anything, but her expression betrayed her.
Lin Bai smiled slightly:
"If Shinomiya can surpass me in next month's midterm exams, he will win the position of student council president."
"I will serve as the vice president to assist her."
"If it doesn't exceed the limit, then Shinomiya-kun must, as agreed, dedicate himself to assisting me during my term of office."
"So that's it."
Fujiwara Chika suddenly realized.
Then he said with a grin, "Although you're very handsome, President, I still want to support Kaguya-san."
"Besides, Kaguya is really strong. If you're careless, you might lose, President."
As a close friend she'd known since middle school, she knew exactly how talented Kaguya Shinomiya was.
Although Lin Bai took first place in the entrance exam.
But she believed that since Kaguya Shinomiya had made this promise, she would definitely win in the end.
Well, probably.
Looking at Lin Bai, she suddenly felt a little wavering.
Kaguya Shinomiya might lose this time.
I lost to the same person for the second time.
No, no, no, Shinomiya is so amazing, she definitely won't lose.
Yes, we'll win!!!
As a good friend, she undoubtedly supports Kaguya Shinomiya.
One thought after another flashed through Fujiwara Chika's mind.
He clenched his right fist, looked at Kaguya Shinomiya, and said encouragingly:
"Go Kaguya-san!"
"Mm." Kaguya Shinomiya looked at her and nodded gently.
His gaze seemed to soften a bit, and his icy, sculpted state diminished.
Then she looked at Lin Bai, her gaze seeming to sharpen again.
It's as if you can see a strong sense of self-confidence in it.
Clearly, she was confident that she would pass the midterm exam.
