Anime Crossover: About How I Spoiled an Angel

Page 92

Hachiman thought for a while. If it were before, he might have found it troublesome and would have come up with an excuse, such as "my sister is still waiting for me at home," to escape.

Over the course of this month, he gradually became acquainted with the members of the Service Club. Even Yukinoshita, who had been sarcastic towards him the first time they met, spoke up for him when she met Orimoto Kaori.

"I'll help, too."

Cai Jia echoed.

"Thank you, everyone."

Looking at Yui and the others, Yukino suddenly felt a warm current flow through her heart, bringing an indescribable comfort and peace that she had never felt before.

At the same time, she felt a familiar gaze fixed on her, making her somewhat uncomfortable.

Yukino looked over and saw Su Qing.

Their eyes met briefly before Yukino, as if something had touched her, looked away first.

"Great idea! Let's name our club activity this afternoon 'The Great Cat House Battle'!"

Yui seemed very excited about building the cat house, her eyes shining with excitement.

"No, before that, I think we should go and buy some raw materials to build the cat house."

Su Qing interrupted Yui's excitement and spoke up.

And so, the Service Department members went to a shop near Sobu High School to buy raw materials.

"Speaking of which, have you thought about what kind of design you want for the cat house?"

Because of the club's limited funds, and because different cat houses require different types and quantities of raw materials, it is very important to plan the style of the cat house in advance.

"How about building a castle!"

In response to Hikigaya's question, Yui made a suggestion.

"That's a good suggestion, but please don't make the same suggestion again next time."

Su Qing swiped her phone screen, shattering Yui's castle dream in the process.

"Well, why do you think so, Xiaoxue?"

Yui's suggestion was ruthlessly rejected by Su Qing, so she went to Xiaoxue to cry and complain.

"As for the cat house... we should consider practicality first, since it's meant to provide a place for Xiaobai to shelter from the wind and rain."

"Hey, you're right."

Yui nodded, and then started looking on her phone for any better construction options.

"What do you guys think of this one?" Su Qing handed her phone to everyone and suggested, "This one should keep you warm quite well, and it's also relatively easy to make."

"I think it's pretty good."

"I think that's okay too."

Everyone nodded, then looked at Yukino, who was now the only one who hadn't answered.

"That's it."

Yukino nodded slightly, but her gaze remained fixed on Su Qing's phone until Su Qing put the phone away, at which point she looked away.

Su Qing noticed this and only realized it when she saw the phone screen.

It turns out that the cat house picture he showed contained an adorable little orange cat...

After Su Qing sent the tools and raw materials needed to build the cat house to the group chat, everyone arranged their purchasing tasks.

After finishing their shopping, Yukino led everyone to the same spot where they had met Shiro the day before.

Thus began Xiaobai's request—no, Xiaoxue's request!

……

Chapter 121 Xiaobai/Xiaoxue's Request in Progress

[Chapter 0 Prologue has been extensively revised these past two days; those interested can take a look.]

"This is it."

Yukino led Yui and the others to the place where they had met Shiro the day before, and stopped to speak. Her voice was calm and gentle, but her eyes revealed a hint of expectation and unease.

"Huh, there are kittens here? This is the first time I've ever heard of this."

Yui's mouth gaped slightly, a look of surprise on her face. Her bright eyes sparkled with curiosity, as if she were fascinated by this new discovery.

"Hmm...it's a white kitten with blue eyes, very cute."

Yukino answered softly, her eyes darting around, trying to find Shiro. Unfortunately, she couldn't find him anywhere. A sense of disappointment welled up inside her, but she maintained a calm expression.

"Um, can Yukino call Shiro out? I want to see him too." Yui blinked her big eyes, looking at Yukino expectantly. Her voice had a slightly coquettish tone, making one feel a surge of affection.

Yui was quite curious to hear Yukino praise a cat as cute. After all, she had loved adorable creatures like cats and dogs since she was a child. When she was little, her neighborhood didn't allow cats, so she secretly kept one, but it left her with some unpleasant memories.

"I can't get it to respond, and it doesn't really listen to me."

Yukino hesitated, a hint of helplessness flashing in her clear eyes. She then looked at Su Qing, who understood and called out Shiro's name as she had yesterday. But this time, Shiro did not come running happily as usual after hearing the call.

"They must have gone somewhere to have fun; they're not here now."

After waiting for a while, Xiaobai still didn't appear. Based on Su Qing's experience, Xiaobai must have gone somewhere to wander around or find something to eat.

"I see. But so, does Xiaobai actually listen to Xiaoqing?"

As Su Qing called for Xiaobai, Yui looked left and right but did not find the white-furred, blue-eyed kitten that Yukino had described. Feeling regretful, she asked in confusion.

Before Yukino could explain, Su Qing preemptively answered:

"I ran into Shiro by chance on my way home yesterday, and then I met Yukinoshita. And for some reason, Shiro was very obedient to me."

"What a coincidence! It seems that it really is true. My Sabre also seems to really like Xiaoqing."

Yui seemed to have discovered a common ground, and she punched her left palm with her right fist, saying with a grin.

"Since Xiaobai isn't here, let's finish building the cat house first."

Hachiman took out all the tools and materials he had bought and made a suggestion.

"That's good too. Building it before Little White comes back will prevent it from being accidentally damaged."

No wonder he's a devoted cat lover; even at a time like this, he's thinking about Xiaobai.

Su Qing had never considered this perspective before, and after hearing Yukino's concerns, she couldn't help but internally complain.

And so, Su Qing assigned relatively suitable jobs to the staff of the Service Department. As for why Su Qing was chosen...

"You're incredibly quick!"

Hachiman watched as Su Qing went through the entire process smoothly and effortlessly, and couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.

You should know that the tasks assigned to her by the other party were the most numerous and the most difficult. Even though Yukino told him that he didn't need to deliberately assign her easier tasks just because she was a girl, and that building the cat house was her idea after all.

But Su Qing simply said:

"The proposal was made by one person, but it was a club activity involving all members of the Service Club."

"Besides, Totsuka's workload is about the same as yours."

Faced with Su Qing's almost impeccable statement, Yukino stopped insisting and silently turned to begin her work.

"Hmm... even if you praise me like that, I still won't finish your workload."

Upon hearing Hachiman's words, Su Qing paused for a moment, then raised her head, extinguishing Hachiman's hopes.

"Am I that kind of person?"

Hikigaya actually had that thought in his heart.

Those who are capable should do more work, and helping the weak is a matter of course!

No, actually, that's all nonsense. Hachiman just wanted to trick Su Qing; it was just something he said offhand. But now that Su Qing has brought it up directly, he naturally can't admit it.

"If you finish early, you might be able to help Caijia."

Su Qing felt it necessary to give Hachiman some motivation, so he offered Hachiman an irresistible and highly suggestive bait.

"It's all for Shiro...it has nothing to do with Ayaka."

After Hachiman made that remark, the work progressed noticeably faster. Seeing his demeanor, Su Qing smiled and said nothing more.

After the previous request from Ayaka, although she didn't admit it, Su Qing was already fairly certain that Ayaka was female, so there was no need to worry about Hachiman's sexual orientation being problematic.

To put it another way, wouldn't it be even more romantic to see through the disguise of a man and still fall in love with her?

Although it was a cat house built from scratch, the cat was small, and everyone prioritized the practicality of the cat house, rather than making it look like a luxury villa like some online tutorials. In addition, there were four people on site and Su Qing, who was like an animal, so Xiaobai's new home was built quickly.

"Thank you for your hard work, everyone. What would you like to drink? I'll go buy it."

After the cat house was built, everyone was a little tired. Although it was just a small cat house, it was the first time they had made something like this by hand. They made quite a few mistakes along the way, but they were all successfully completed under Su Qing's guidance.

"Green tea, please."

Hachiman thought for a moment and then said.

"Here's some black tea, please."

Strawberry milk!

Yui, still full of energy, raised her hand and said.

After noting down the drinks that Saika and Yui wanted, only Yukino remained unanswered, so Su Qing shifted her gaze to her.

"Coffee. Also, I'll go with you."

"No need, you can just sit and rest."

Su Qing tried to refuse, having learned from the previous Totsuka request that physical strength was her weakness.

"There are five drinks for you, it's hard for you to carry them all by yourself, isn't it?"

"Ok."

Su Qing nodded helplessly; the other party's explanation left him with no reason to refuse.

"Then, then, I want to go too!"

Upon seeing Su Qing and Yukino team up, Yui tried to join them, but the two of them decisively refused when they saw Yui panting slightly.

During the construction of the cat house, although the other party was serious, she made the most mistakes, leaving the other party in a state of constant chaos. In the end, Yukino and Su Qing were the first to finish their work to help her.

"Thank you so much for today..."

As they walked, Yukino suddenly spoke, her voice carrying a rare gentleness.

"Don't say that. It's the result of everyone's hard work." Su Qing shook her head.

"I know, and I'm very grateful to them. But... thank you anyway."

The two walked side by side, but neither looked at the other, as if they were both enjoying this rare moment of tranquility.

"If you're really grateful, then buy me a glass of water."

"Okay, what would you like to drink?"

"I'm just kidding."

Su Qing didn't expect Yukino to take it seriously; he was just joking.

"You...you said that on purpose yesterday, didn't you?"

Yukino suddenly stopped, her eyes sparkling.

"What do you mean?"

When Su Qing saw Yukino stop, he thought she was going to insist on inviting him, but now it seems he was overthinking it.

"Actually, even if you're the only one, you can build it quickly."

"Well... putting aside the facts, that's true."

"I want to know your intention in doing this."

Yukino looked at Su Qing with an extremely serious expression.
