Chapter 208 - 208. Soyo: Let’s Join Forces!

Losing heroine…

Even though she didn't like Kamijou Mutsuki, hearing Nagasaki Soyo say that still made Sakiko Togawa feel inexplicably uncomfortable.

"Leaving aside the fact that I don't have those kinds of feelings for Mutsuki, Mutsumi is his fiancée! How could you even think like that?!"

Mutsuki already had Wakaba Mutsumi as his fiancée—was Soyo planning to steal him from her?

Sakiko felt she needed to correct Soyo's unhealthy way of thinking!

"But there's also Sayaka, isn't there?"

Faced with Sakiko's questioning, Soyo simply showed a nonchalant expression.

"Well, since there's already one, I'm sure Mutsumi wouldn't mind adding two more."

Soyo naturally had no intention of stealing someone from Mutsumi. Setting aside their relationship, she simply couldn't bring herself to do something like that.

If Kamijou Mutsuki would abandon Mutsumi for her, then would he still be the Kamijou Mutsuki she knew?

Of course, no matter what he became, her feelings wouldn't change—but she didn't want to force him into such a choice.

"F-four people…"

However, Soyo's words completely exceeded Sakiko's ability to process.

As if imagining something, her eyes turned into spirals, and her face flushed bright red.

"H-how could that be… four people… together with Mutsuki… that's way too indecent!"

"That's still on the low side,"

Soyo didn't care about Sakiko's reaction at all, instead puffing up her cheeks.

"Saki-chan, let me tell you—there are a lot of bad women eyeing Mutsuki-kun!"

Just within MyGO!!!!! alone, aside from the unreadable "cat," who didn't have at least some thoughts about him?

"If we don't put in effort, we might end up being ignored by Mutsuki-kun."

"At that point, we might only be able to watch as those bad women do whatever they want to him right in front of us—while we can't do anything, not even say a word."

As she spoke, Soyo's expression suddenly turned aggrieved and indignant.

"They might not even let you watch—you'd only be able to hear the sounds… that's just too much!"

"…"

Looking at the girl grinding her teeth in frustration, Sakiko's expression turned subtle.

There was no trace of pretense—everything she said came straight from the heart.

However, why did she feel like everything Nagasaki Soyo was saying sounded as if she had personally experienced it?

But her words still made Sakiko Togawa unable to stop herself from imagining—if something like that really happened to her…

She absolutely wouldn't be able to accept it!

"Exactly!"

Seeing Sakiko's expression, Soyo thought she had finally understood her, and spoke excitedly.

"Even if Mutsumi is Mutsuki-kun's fiancée, she can't monopolize him!"

Not even giving her a spot, not even letting her take a position from behind—this was just too much!

She had no intention of taking Kamijou Mutsuki away from Wakaba Mutsumi, but there were still things she had to fight for.

That night, lying there like a defeated heroine—

Listening to the sounds from the other side of the wall where Mutsumi and Mutsuki were together, she silently swore in her heart:

She could replace her!

And since Sakiko was Mutsuki's maid, if she could win her over, her chances would increase greatly.

"Let's join forces and create a pincer attack on Mutsumi!"

"Even if Mutsumi's charm is equal to ours individually, together we're double!"

"Soyo…"

While Soyo was passionately "giving her speech," Sakiko had already noticed a small figure behind her and tried to warn her.

"What is it?"

However, Soyo completely failed to understand the meaning in Sakiko's eyes.

"Saki-chan, with our charm, if we join hands, even Mutsumi—"

"And then what?"

The cool, pleasant voice coming from behind made Soyo's body freeze instantly.

"Mutsumi…"

Looking at the expressionless "little cucumber" behind her, Soyo felt her mind go blank.

She had forgotten where she was. She had been a bit too bold today.

And now she had been caught red-handed by Mutsumi…

"Soyo, what are you trying to do?"

Wakaba Mutsumi tilted her head slightly, asking in a flat, emotionless tone.

She had known it—after admitting her feelings, Soyo would be the most troublesome one.

After all, everyone knew about Nagasaki Soyo's past obsession with Sakiko Togawa.

But it had only been a few days—had she already forgotten the lesson?

Was she not tied up enough that day?

"Mutsumi…"

After all, Wakaba Mutsumi was Kamijou Mutsuki's official fiancée. And since Soyo was in the wrong to begin with, she instinctively felt suppressed when facing her.

"…I was wrong."

Next time, I'll definitely avoid Mutsumi!

At the side, Sakiko was a bit speechless. She had been talking so passionately just now, but the moment she saw Mutsumi, she backed down?

She had even thought Soyo might actually—

No, wait. This kind of unhealthy behavior deserved to be suppressed!

"Soyo,"

Just as Soyo was panicking under Mutsumi's gaze, Kamijou Mutsuki's voice saved her.

"Someone's looking for you."

"Huh?"

The slightly flustered Soyo showed a puzzled expression.

Who would be looking for her at this time?

"It's Old Man Wakaba… I mean, Mutsumi's dad."

Kamijou Mutsuki held his phone, his expression toward Soyo somewhat strange.

"He's asking if you have any intention of becoming a comedian."

"He said that with your talent, in less than a year, you could surpass him as a comedian."

"Dominating the industry would be no problem."

Who would've thought—Anon's words had actually come true.

After being "sold off" to Kamijou Mutsuki for so long, Mutsumi had almost forgotten she even had such a father.

She had been curious why he was looking for Soyo, but after hearing this, she couldn't help but smile slightly.

Beside her, Sakiko also looked at Soyo with a strange expression.

A comedian…

"Pfft—"

For some reason, she suddenly couldn't hold back her laughter.

"I refuse! I have absolutely no intention of becoming a comedian!"

As for Soyo herself, her face flushed red with anger.

Old Man Wakaba—you've gone too far!

What exactly about her was funny?

Wasn't this just deliberately ruining her image?

What if Kamijou Mutsuki got misled too and started treating her like some kind of comic relief character?

On Mutsuki's side, he naturally chose to respect Soyo's wishes and rejected "Old Man Wakaba" through the phone.

Of course, Old Man Wakaba didn't want Soyo to waste her talent, but there was nothing he could do when facing Kamijou Mutsuki.

A rising sun of the comedy world had been extinguished before it could even rise.

With this little episode, the atmosphere among the girls became much more harmonious.

With Wakaba Mutsumi present, Nagasaki Soyo couldn't really do anything to Mutsuki, and eventually left.

"By the way, what were you just talking about with Saki-chan?"

Blushing, Sakiko Togawa also hurriedly ran off.

In the end, only Mutsumi remained by Kamijou Mutsuki's side.

And then…

The "little cucumber" bit him again!

Looking at Kamijou Mutsuki wiping the saliva off his face, Mutsumi's gaze carried a hint of resentment.

Even though she had already been mentally prepared, wasn't he just too good at attracting girls?

As for what she was thinking about tonight…

No one knew.

However, one thing was certain—Sakiko the maid did not sleep very peacefully that night.
