Riko's words made Fang Li's brow furrow slightly.

He turned his head and looked directly at Riko.

On Riko's usually cheerful and charming face, there was a faint hint of bitterness.

With such an expression, coupled with her words, Fang Li could only think of one thing.

"What's going on?"

The question came directly from Fang Li's lips.

But Riko answered with a blink and a surprised look.

"What's going on? Is there something happening to Riko?"

As she spoke, the hint of bitterness on Riko's face disappeared completely.

It was as if it was just an illusion.

However, Fang Li continued to stare at Riko and said, "You should know that it is pointless to hide things from me.

Indeed.

Hiding things from Fang Li was useless.

After all, Fang Li might not be exceptionally intelligent, but his constant calm and composure gave him keen observation and excellent judgment, allowing him to detect crucial details.

Thus, Fang Li could at least tell that Riko was hiding something from him.

What could it be?

As Fang Li began to analyze the situation as usual, Riko made a move.

"Pā!"

Once again, a clear sound echoed in the living room.

This time, however, it was Riko who made the sound by forcefully pinching Fang Li's face.

With that pinch, Fang Li's train of thought was interrupted and his gaze was fixed on Riko's face.

There, Riko lowered her head, making her expression unclear, and just said quietly, "No, Li Li."

When she said this, Riko's voice sounded as usual, without any noticeable problems.

However, what she said was:

"A girl's secrets are very important. If Li Li casually analyzes them, it will be very rude, so don't do it."

It sounded reasonable.

But in this context, there weren't many people who would agree.

Fang Li was one of them.

But Riko obviously didn't want Fang Li to think any further.

"Stop thinking about boring things. If you keep thinking, Riko will have to 'chu' you," Riko said with dissatisfaction. "If Li Li doesn't want to be 'chu'ed by Riko, then chat with Riko. You're not allowed to think alone."

This response was met with:

"Then go ahead and kiss me," Fang Li said without hesitation. "Afterwards, will you tell me what you're hiding?"

"Eh?" Riko was taken aback, and only after a moment did she react, saying with great surprise, "Li Li doesn't like being 'chu'ed by Riko, right?"

"That's a huge misunderstanding," Fang Li replied. "No man hates being kissed by a girl unless she's a monster woman!"

And is Riko a monster woman?

Clearly, she is not.

Not only is she not a monster woman, but she's also incredibly cute and beautiful, with a fantastic figure— she is an exceptionally beautiful girl that you wouldn't find even with a lantern. What man would hate being kissed by her?

"B-but…" Riko seemed genuinely surprised and said, "When Riko clings to Li Li, doesn't Li Li push Riko away? And when Aria, Yuki Chan, and Rekyu embrace you, you also seem uninterested?"

So, Riko probably thought that Fang Li didn't like these girls?

Of course, that was a misunderstanding.

"I only let you all have fun because you were enjoying yourselves so much," Fang Li replied with a look at Riko. "And besides, whether or not I accept embraces depends on the reason. If it's like Aria, who was dragged into it by you with no real intention, what's the point? If it's like Reki, who only hugs to achieve a goal, how can anyone like that?"

As for Shirayuki, she was too enthusiastic, which even made Fang Li a bit wary.

As for Riko, since this girl was so changeable, Fang Li didn't know what she was thinking and naturally wouldn't accept her advances easily.

On the other hand, girls like Sylvie, Amelie, and Rem, who clearly showed their affection for Fang Li, were not rejected by him. 

Although Fang Li only confirmed his relationship with Sylvie, having such pure affection from beautiful and cute girls like Amelie and Rem would make any man's imagination wander, right?

Thus, Fang Li let Riko and the others be.

And it was not because he hated these girls, but simply because he felt there was no need to get involved.

"Besides, you've forced a kiss on me before," Fang Li said to Riko. "At that time, did I show any dislike?"

The answer, of course, was no.

That was the best proof.

Realizing what Fang Li meant, Riko finally fell silent.

After a while, Riko's voice resumed.

"Let's play a game!"

As if to completely blow away the previous topic, Riko stood up with a sudden "hū."

In her hands, two handheld game consoles had appeared.

"I brought one for Li Li too!" 

Riko handed one of the consoles to Fang Li, or rather, directly shoved it into his hands.

Looking at the pink game console in his hand, Fang Li gave a wry smile and said, "This isn't my console; it's yours, isn't it?"

Since meeting Riko, she had often dragged Fang Li to play games with her and bought a handheld console specifically for him, which was usually kept in Riko's room and brought out whenever she wanted to play.

"It was originally bought for Li Li," Riko said eagerly.

"So hurry up and play! Play! Play! Play!"

As she said this, Riko started rolling around on the floor, looking more like a child than ever.

"Sigh…"

Fang Li sighed and stood up from the sofa.

Seeing Fang Li like this, Riko finally smiled.

That smile was more genuine than any previous ones.

For a while afterward, Fang Li and Riko played games together.

As if the previous topic was completely forgotten, they played games continuously until late into the night, even drinking beer, leaving a pile of empty cans on the surrounding floor.

So, at some point, Fang Li and Riko ended up lying together on the floor and fell asleep.

When Fang Li woke up, it was already the next morning.

As for Riko, she had disappeared.

All that was left was an SMS sent to Fang Li's cell phone.

"Going home now, love you, Riko."

Looking at the SMS, Fang Li couldn't help but wonder.

Could it be that Riko plans to suddenly disappear from school again, like last time?

It probably won't happen, right?
