Anime Crossover: About How I Spoiled an Angel

Page 104

Because of Su Qing's sudden approach, Yukino's voice became softer, but she did not resist, after all, it was indeed difficult for her to deal with someone behind her...

She just thought to herself:

I should have known better than to wait for him here...

P.S.: This was a plot point I originally wanted to write, but when I was about to start writing it, I actually got confessed to...

Thank goodness I refused, I almost ended up in a relationship (sigh of relief).

Chapter 139 Yui's Abnormality & Haruno's Arrival

Because the island in this world belongs to the mainland, information exchange between people on both sides of the strait has become more convenient. In addition, with the development of social media technology, Yukino has recently come to understand that there are considerable differences between the campus culture on the mainland and that in Japan.

Putting aside her suffocating schedule, as far as she knew, even face-to-face confessions and writing love letters, typical of light novel romance plots, were not common in mainland China. As for persistent pursuit after a failed confession, it was even rarer.

Because Su Qing was a transfer student from the mainland, Yukino was initially worried that he would run into some strange people, after all, there were those self-righteous guys who confessed to her.

Well, this guy is also a member of my department, so as the department head, I have an obligation to help him out when he's being harassed.

Now it seems there's no need for that.

However... being able to hear the reason for the other party's refusal is still a good gain.

Yukino's lips curled slightly, while Su Qing continued what she was doing, asking:

"Not okay yet?"

"Remember not to lean against places like that next time, and remember to take a good shower when you get back."

Su Qing withdrew her hand, rubbed the remaining white ash between her palms, and reminded him.

"Yes, I know." After Yukino responded, she suddenly turned to look at Su Qing beside her and asked:

Are you free now?

"What, are you trying to drag me into doing hard labor?" Su Qing pointed to the materials in Yukino's hand and joked.

"What kind of strange statement is that? I meant I wanted you to help Yui with some of the work, or more accurately, to teach her when she encounters difficulties," Yukino explained softly.

"If I remember correctly, Yui didn't participate in the executive committee or as a volunteer, right?"

Although I did meet Yui last time and she said she would help Yukino get some materials, I didn't hear her mention any other work to do.

"She definitely didn't participate." Yukino shook her head, her eyes full of helplessness.

"She asked me from day one to help me with some of the work, but she was probably new to it and not very skilled, so I intentionally had her do some simple tasks or simply refused her request."

But...you probably know that, and she said you can't grow by doing simple jobs.

Yukino was saying that she couldn't resist Yui's cute and affectionate mode, which Su Qing knew. The only thing that puzzled him was why Yui suddenly wanted to "grow" herself.

No wonder I haven't seen Yui these past few days...

However, I can't understand it...

Su Qing, who thought she understood the girl, was completely unable to deduce her intentions at this moment.

"If it's just about providing guidance, you should be able to balance the two without affecting your own work, right?"

This was Su Qing's affirmation of Yukino's personal abilities; he believed the girl had the strength to back it up.

"At first, that's what I wanted to do, but... if I actually did it, Yui probably wouldn't be happy, after all... that's my job."

However, she seems to be getting used to handling it these past couple of days, but... she's not in a very good state.

Yukino's workload is relatively heavy compared to others, but after Yui took over the extra work, things became more balanced.

Moreover, although it was Yui's first time doing this kind of work, Yukino was surprised that she didn't hold her back or cause her any trouble, although she didn't care about those things.

"Not feeling well? I understand what you're trying to say. Take me to her in a bit."

After a moment of silence, Su Qing nodded and agreed.

Upon hearing this, Yukino finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She knew that Yui and Su Qing had a good relationship. Besides, in this situation, the only person she could ask for help was Su Qing.

Yukino only noticed the bloodshot in Yui's eyes today, and only then did she realize why the other woman was able to keep up with her work pace. She had been intending to discuss this matter with Su Qing today, and it just so happened that she bumped into her.

Those who lack talent can only compensate by working harder.

Effort itself is a talent.

Yukino once again recalled the scene when she first met Yui, that girl who only knew how to cater to others' moods, follow the crowd, and mocked herself for having no talent after a few failures in cooking, seemed to be getting further and further away in her black and white memories...

The only thing that remains unchanged is probably the girl's innocent smile.

And sometimes she even acts coquettishly.

Yes, both of these are good, and Yukino hopes the other party will continue to maintain them.

"Oh my, Yukino, I've finally found you."

Another extremely cheerful voice interrupted Yukino and Su Qing's conversation.

Following the sound, Su Qing quickly saw a stylishly dressed woman with a face similar to Yukino's but with a vibrant smile waving as she walked over.

Yukino's...cousin/older sister?

No, it's not impossible that the other party's mother is well-maintained and pregnant in her early stages.

The moment Su Qing saw Yang Nai, she had already begun to speculate about his identity.

After all, Yukino's expression changed noticeably when Yukino appeared, and Su Qing noticed it.

"Sister, what brings you here?"

"Oh dear, I finally managed to squeeze in some time out of my busy schedule to see my adorable little sister, and this is the cold reaction I get? It really hurts my feelings."

Yang grumbled to himself, but the smile on his face remained as bright as ever.

"If you're too busy, you don't need to come all the way to visit me," Yukino sighed softly, feeling helpless.

"No, this is completely wrong. Where did that cute little girl go?" Yukino looked frantic, while Yukino remained calm, seemingly used to the way this person acted.

Because Yukino had always been alone, Haruno's first reaction was to imagine Su Qing as a random passerby, but now it seems that she misunderstood and was impolite.

So Yang Nai bowed very formally and apologized to Su Qing:

"I'm sorry, I'm Yukino's older sister. You can call me Haruno."

Yang Nai?

That does somewhat match the image of the person in front of him, at least on the surface. Su Qing nodded and smiled as she commented.

"It's alright, hello, I'm Su Qing, a classmate of Yukinoshita."

"A mainland Chinese?" Yang's smile widened.

"Ah."

“I see… People from the mainland are great…” Yang Nai nodded to himself, seemingly lost in thought, then sighed:

"But are we really just classmates? There must be something deeper between us, right?"

For example... lovers or something?

No wonder Yukino was unusually cold today; it turns out—did you interrupt your date, sister?

However, be careful of security cameras when dating in places like this.

"Sister! We're not in that kind of relationship."

Seeing this, Yukino stepped forward to explain, crossing her arms and asking:

"If there's nothing else, we have work to do, so we won't keep you company any longer."

After saying that, Yukino prepared to leave.

"Hey, wait a minute, I'm here to deliver a message from my mother."

Seeing that Yukino was really leaving, and knowing her personality, Yang stopped joking and said seriously.

"Mother?" Yukino repeated inexplicably, her expression no longer calm. She took a deep breath before speaking in a low voice:

"Just tell me if you have anything."

Su Qing noticed that Yukino's expression was clearly off when she heard the word "mother".

"Don't be so nervous, it's really nothing." Seeing that Yukino was still the same as before, Yang Nai chuckled a few times, then said to Su Qing beside her:

"Sorry, I'll have to borrow Yukino for now. After all, as the 'older sister,' my priority is definitely higher, so there's nothing I can do about it~"

When Yang Nai said the word "older sister," her tone became noticeably stronger.

"You go ahead, I'll be there in a bit."

"Okay, I see."

After Su Qing nodded slightly, she gave the Yukinoshita sisters ample time to talk.

However, when he had walked a certain distance, he suddenly stopped, and without the two of them noticing, he turned around and stared at them thoughtfully for a while before quickly leaving.

……

Chapter 140 Let's rest for a while.

I heard from the people in my grade that Yukino Yukinoshita seems to come from a noble family called "Yukinoshita".

If I have the chance… I should do some research on this family and also learn about the various family forces in Tokyo and the surrounding area.

Su Qing's time on the island was ultimately too short, and besides, he had never had any interest in the so-called families on the island.

As far as Su Qing was concerned, nothing mattered as long as it didn't bother him.

However, after seeing Yukino's obviously strange reaction to the word "mother," and Haruno's consistently sunny smile that seemed somewhat insincere, Su Qing felt that an investigation was still necessary.

He was still waiting to see how far Yukino's overly stubborn "kindness" and "honesty" would go, and what path she would ultimately choose. He was also hoping to get a clue about the "real thing" from it.

If it gets ruined by some strange factor, that would be a real problem...

Speaking of family, Su Qing couldn't help but think of Mahiru, who had been spending a lot of time with her these past few days. Although she didn't know the specifics of Mahiru's family background, she would do some research to see if there was a family called "Shiina".

As for now, let's go visit that little pink bundle first.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

"Hmm...that's strange."

Why do tables appear correctly on one page when opened in Word, but in print preview, the last table jumps to the second page?

Yui stared at the computer screen, completely baffled. After trying several more steps, she reluctantly resorted to her old method—the search engine—and started it up!

"The reason for the pagination is the page break character..."

"The reason for the two pages is because double-sided printing was used..."

Yui opened the app, typed in her question, and started scrolling down from the top, muttering to herself. Even Yui knew that none of these methods were correct.

Moreover, the methods that appear as you scroll down become increasingly strange and have nothing to do with the question you are searching for.

"Is it because I didn't express myself well?"

Yui tilted her head, deleted the question from the search bar, and decided to rephrase her question more accurately.

"WORD documents usually have strict formatting requirements. Sometimes, during print preview, the printer settings or driver may automatically adjust the document format, resulting in unwanted page breaks."

"Then what should we do?"

That voice sounds so familiar.

However, because Yui had been staying up late for the past few days, her mind wasn't quite clear yet, not to mention that she was currently focused entirely on her work.

Therefore, she asked almost subconsciously.

"A direct and effective method is to right-click and select to convert the document to PDF format before printing, which ensures that the printed output is consistent with the original document format."

"Sigh... I'll give it a try."

Yui's fair face already showed signs of fatigue. Although she didn't have dark circles under her eyes, she did have heavy eye bags.

Even so, her voice still brimmed with undisguised excitement.

"Yes, that's how it's done."

Su Qing watched Yui's actions, nodded, and then added:

Alternatively, if formatting can be adjusted, page breaks can be avoided by adjusting margins, font size, etc., but for file transfer, converting to PDF is still recommended.
