Is it a problem to have a harem in a stranger heroine?

"I kissed Byakuya-senpai indirectly... so, am I becoming a bit like his girlfriend..."

Chapter 651: When we meet again after a long separation, we become estranged because of love

In his heart, he was fantasizing about getting close to Bai Ye, but when he went out to sea, he was not controlled by this impulse.

Although she was very close to Bai Ye in reality, there was always a distance of a finger between them. Even though they could feel the warmth emanating from each other's skin, no one got any closer to feel each other more clearly.

"The universe at your fingertips..."

Bai Ye knew that Bo Dao Chu Hai definitely had a good impression of him, but at the same time he also had some resentment, so he did not refuse his head pat, but did not dare to take the initiative to break the last layer of thin gauze.

"The road ahead is long and arduous, but I will continue to search for it..."

It will be quite some time before I can go out to sea and throw myself into your arms without any scruples. Before that, I can use a little ambiguity to comfort myself.

"Come, go out to sea."

Bai Ye picked up a piece of shredded pig ears with chopsticks and handed it to Bodao Chuhai's mouth along with shredded cucumber, with his left hand still dragging underneath.

"what--"

"Senior, I'm not a child."

"I said I'd feed you, so feeding you counts as part of the process. Come on, open your mouth."

Podao Chuhai tilted his head, as if he felt helpless about his senior's playful nature. He raised his head like a hungry baby bird and opened his mouth to accept the fact of being fed.

The shredded pig ears are very crispy, and chewing the cartilage gives you a strange feeling like someone is beating drums and gongs in your head.

“Crunchy and porky!”

"Is it delicious? Even though I haven't cooked in a while, my cooking skills should still be good."

"It's delicious! But isn't it usually the seniors who are responsible for cooking?" Bodao Chukai asked curiously.

"Xiao Hui has been in charge of cooking all this time. If I take away her job as secretary, she'll definitely give me trouble later."

Bai Ye went to the kitchen to watch the fire, leaving Chu Hai alone to think about his words.

"Everyone has their own responsibilities, no...it should be about realizing their own value, so Kato-senpai is more willing to stay with Byakuya-senpai."

"Flash Girl" was taken away by Iori Hasima, and the art work she was responsible for came to an abrupt end. It was like two people who were in single-line communication during wartime, and one of them lost contact, leaving the other with great confusion and anxiety.

"I've been so bored lately... I have no goals... I'm not as motivated to draw as before..."

"Senior." She called towards the kitchen.

"what's up?"

"Has the manuscript for the Food Handbook been submitted?"

“It was rejected once, but I submitted it again after revising it.”

Bodao lost power again when he went out to sea. He half-paralyzed on the edge of the bed, staring at the snow-white ceiling in a daze.

She felt very sorry for everyone for missing the revision, and the lack of participation made her inner emptiness even greater, as if a gap that could not be ignored was cut between her and the White Night Society.

Bai Ye was putting the finishing touches on dinner in the kitchen. He tasted it and nodded in satisfaction.

"Let's go out to sea. We'll have stewed salmon tonight. The swim will be just the right amount of nourishment for you."

Seeing no response, Bai Ye brought dinner to the living room and saw her half-paralyzed on the ground in a daze.

"Going out to sea, going out to sea?"

"what--!"

Bodao woke up as if from a dream, shook his head, secretly blamed himself and couldn't help but let his thoughts run wild. He stood up to take the dinner and squatted down to put it on the table.

Bai Ye pursed his lips and smiled.

In his opinion, there was no need to stand up to take the plate and then squat down before going out to sea. It was like taking off your pants to fart - a waste of time.

If it were Eriri, she would definitely bang the table and shout "Hurry up!" The politeness about going out to sea made Bai Ye feel somewhat unfamiliar.

After a moment of silence, Hajima Chukai asked the question that had just been hidden in his heart.

"Senior, do you need me for any work?"

"Of course there is work."

Bai Ye paused deliberately, pretending to be thinking.

After the plan was finalized last Saturday, Shiyu and Eriri almost started slacking off on the spot due to the seemingly endless workload.

However, Bai Ye couldn't decide whether to tell Hajima Chukai about the plan.

The first item in the plan is a summary of the situation regarding "Flash Girl".

"I'm willing to trust Izumi, but if Iori Hatashima accidentally finds out... But Izumi looks like an abandoned little animal, and hiding it from her alone would be too cruel. No..."

Exchanging one person going out to sea for the favor of the other four is a sure-win deal no matter how you look at it.

However, the feelings between people are not pure commodities, and everything cannot be measured by price. The wounds in the heart cannot be healed by any amount of money.

Time did not allow Bai Ye to think too long. Chu Hai was staring at him, and every second of hesitation would increase Chu Hai's worries.

After a moment of thought, Bai Ye decided to compromise.

Because the news that "Flash Girls" was taken away by Iori Hasima was told to me by Chukai, it is worth giving her some trust.

"It depends on whether you are willing to go out to sea and do it."

"I'm willing!" Hashima Chukai's eyes lit up, and he softly grasped Bai Ye's arm, erasing the last bit of distance between them. "Is it a painting job? No, that's fine too. There must be a lot of miscellaneous jobs in the club, right?"

Bai Ye sighed in his heart: He accepts all kinds of jobs, so he must be crazy to realize his self-worth by going overseas.

"Someone else will take care of the miscellaneous work, and what you need to do is the painting work."

"What to draw?" Bo Island came closer to the sea.

Bai Ye didn't answer immediately. He was just trying to use the meal as a chance to think.

"No hurry, let's eat first."

"I want to know now."

"Talk while we eat."

Seeing that Bai Ye refused again, Bodao Chuhai could only put aside his curiosity temporarily and picked up the bowl to start eating.

Bai Ye relaxed his expression and picked up a piece of meaty salmon fillet and put it in her bowl.

"Don't worry, it's yours and it won't run away. Being too anxious might just backfire."

"Yeah." Bodao Chukai nodded.

She wasn't thinking about Bai Ye's sermons, she nodded because the stewed salmon was really delicious!

……

Halfway through the meal, Bai Ye continued the previous topic.

"I have the portrait rights for the heroines of the Food Handbook, and I plan to create a series of works based on them."

"That's a good idea!"

"When you go overseas, you'll be responsible for designing costumes for the heroines, drawing character illustrations, and uploading them to the work's website to gain popularity."

"Yeah." Hamima nodded while eating at the beach. She understood this.

"There's plenty of time, no need to rush. Now is the initial accumulation stage. If you don't have popularity, just treat it as practice."

“I’ll do my best(?o_o)?!”

Developing a harem club is a long-term plan. As Bai Ye said, there is no need to rush, but there is one thing that needs to be done urgently.

People are most relaxed when they are full, so Bai Ye chose to raise important questions now.

"Go to sea."

"I'm here."

As if sensing Bai Ye's mood, Hajima became serious about going out to sea.

She was not an ignorant girl. She understood that Senior Bai Ye had always been taking care of her feelings, and now it was time to repay him.

"Is there something that's hard to say, Senior? I know... My position has always been awkward, even more awkward than that of Senior Hyodou. I don't mind. Senior, you can say whatever you want. I really don't mind."

Chapter 652: Let’s use Bodao Chuhai as a pillow!

Do you really don't mind?

Looking at the resolute look in Bodao's eyes as he went out to sea, Bai Ye swallowed the refusal that was on the tip of his tongue.

It's not shameful to escape but it's useless.

Bai Ye not only wanted to say the above sentence to Chu Hai, but also to himself.

No one can live under the protection of others forever. Growth is a process of constant hurt and reap. Those who stand up grow, while those who lie down sink helplessly.

"It's time to be honest about going out to sea."

Just do it!

"Going out to sea, I won't ask too many questions to avoid making things difficult for you. But don't worry, I know quite a bit, and combined with your intelligence, I can analyze a lot of things."

"Yeah!" Chu Hai sat upright, supporting his knees with both hands to show that he was serious.

Bai Ye sat facing upright and responded with sufficient attention.

"Is your brother a member of rouge en rouge?"

"Yes, my brother joined rouge en rouge in junior high school." Hamajima Izumi nodded seriously.

"Is that so... How about you, Izumi?"

"As for me..." A look of doubt flashed across Hashima Chukai's eyes for a moment, and then he spoke slowly.

"My brother has officially joined rouge en rouge. I've been to rouge en rouge but it's not considered a formal membership. For example, when I designed the heroines for the Food Handbook this time, I asked everyone at rouge en rouge for advice."

Bai Ye nodded thoughtfully.

He also felt that the quality of the heroines designed for Overseas was very high, even exceeding his expectations, which made sense if he had consulted a rouge en rouge master.

"Have you known rouge en rouge for a long time when you went to sea?"

"I first learned about Rouge en Rouge in my first year of junior high, but I officially met them before the summer festival. I took over your mission, and I felt like I was stuck. So I asked my brother for help and asked him to take me to Rouge en Rouge."

The second half of Hatashima Chukai's sentence was an explanation. She also understood what Hatashima Iori was going to do after getting "Flash Girls", and it was important to explain clearly to Bai Ye the relationship between herself and Rouge en Rouge.

This is a rule of thumb.

Bai Ye naturally understood her good intentions and reached out to touch her little head.

"It's okay, it's okay. I'm different from Amai-san. At least I can understand what people say."

Hajima Chukai just smiled, and his smile was a little bitter, obviously he had suffered a loss at the hands of Aki Tomoya.

It was enough to tease Aki Tomoya occasionally, and Bai Ye immediately changed the subject.

"Do you know Akane Benizaka?"

"I know, but I've never met her. I heard she's very beautiful and rich." Hajima Chukai seemed to be lost in thought. Suddenly, he thought of something and his expression turned strange. "Senior, you... wouldn't you want to take Akane Benizaka into your harem?"

"What are you thinking?!"

Bai Ye raised his hand and slapped her hard, knocking her out of her love-struck mind.

"Your brother wants to complete 'Flash Girl', and he definitely needs the help of Akane Benizaka. I'm thinking if you know anything about her, please let me know."

"I don't know much. I feel that Hongzaka Akane is mysterious." Hajima Chuhai spread his hands.

"Ok."

After confirming from Demi that Iori Hasima was a member of Rouge en Rouge, Byakuya had nothing else to ask.

Things like going out to sea to take care of Tomoya Aki, it’s better not to ask so as not to hurt feelings.

"That's it, time to do homework."

. . . . . .

After finishing his homework and playing games with Chuhai for a while, Bai Ye felt a little sleepy, and Chuhai also yawned.

"I'm sleepy... I want to sleep, senior..."

Bai Ye looked at his watch and it was already half past ten.
