God Invasion: It's awesome to save the world with five problematic girls!

A chill crept up her spine instantly, making her quickly look up at the figure in front of her.

In front of her, Ye Shiyu stood expressionless, holding her phone, looking down at Bai Yi.

"Eek!"

Bai Yi was so frightened that she jumped up, hurriedly hiding behind a tree and pointing at Ye Shiyu, saying,

"Are you a ghost? Walking without a sound!"

"..."

Although Ye Shiyu’s expression remained calm, a hint of pity towards the foolish exuded from her deep eyes.

In the next instant, she raised her hand to point at Bai Yi’s ear.

Bai Yi was momentarily stunned before realizing she was still wearing her Bluetooth earphones.

Her face flushed slightly, embarrassed as she quickly removed the earphones...

Yet she still did not apologize for her earlier rudeness.

"Ahem..."

Ye Shiyu didn’t mind, for she had always viewed Bai Yi with an inhuman gaze, simply asking,

"Why are you looking for me?"

"...Don’t worry, there’s one more person who hasn’t arrived yet."

"..."

Another person?

Ye Shiyu didn’t have time to wonder who that might be before a faint panting came from behind her,

"Ha...ha...ha..."

Hearing the sound, Ye Shiyu and Bai Yi both turned to look in the direction of the noise.

They saw Sakuragi Hitomi leaning against the tree trunk, sweating on her forehead, her face pale.

She opened her mouth, gasping, while wiping her sweat off on a branch, and asked Bai Yi with an unpleasant expression,

"Why couldn’t we...ha...just talk in the school building? Why must we come to this faraway park...ha...ha..."

"...Maybe your stamina is just too weak?"

Upon seeing Sakuragi Hitomi, Ye Shiyu withdrew her gaze, turning to look at Bai Yi beside her.

Bai Yi was unnerved by her gaze, and hesitantly moved closer to Sakuragi Hitomi.

Though her frame was slim, Bai Yi somehow felt slightly warmer near her, enough to let her words flow smoothly.

So, Bai Yi gestured slightly towards Sakuragi Hitomi, taking the initiative to say,

"Hold on... don’t be in a rush. I invited both of you here to discuss the same matter."

Ye Shiyu remained silent, merely staring at her quietly.

However, Sakuragi Hitomi glanced at Ye Shiyu, analyzed the trio present, and combined it with what Bai Yi said about Spencer...

The next moment, Sakuragi Hitomi understood.

She shot a glance at Bai Yi and suddenly said,

"The topic you called us here for, besides Spencer, involves the President, doesn’t it?"

Bai Yi was a bit surprised at Sakuragi Hitomi’s keen perception. After a brief pause, she laughed and openly admitted,

"Yes, that’s right."

"..."

"And I can also straightforwardly admit, I indeed have feelings for Yan Huan."

Sakuragi Hitomi frowned, while behind her, Ye Shiyu remained expressionless, gripping her phone a bit tighter.

A formidable pressure emanated from both sides, causing Bai Yi, caught between them, to break into goosebumps and cold sweat.

From her chest, her pocket watch seemed to sense danger, revealing itself quietly.

But as soon as it emerged, before even ticking a second, it felt the displeased faces of Sakuragi Hitomi in front and the icy expression of Ye Shiyu behind...

In the next instant, the pocket watch silently faded away, disappearing completely.

At this crucial moment, it was Sakuragi Hitomi who elegantly smiled and said,

"Far Moon isn’t short of those who admire the President. Wasting our lunch break for this is really..."

"However, I dare say the three of us here are the ones closest to Yan Huan, with the best hope, don’t you think?"

Interrupted, Sakuragi Hitomi was taken aback, and then looked up at Bai Yi in front of her.

She saw Bai Yi turn around to point at Ye Shiyu behind her, introducing on her behalf,

"Senior Sister Ye, the only daughter of President Ye of Ye International.

"When I was filming an MV with Yan Huan at the Golden Lion Building, I realized that President Ye is akin to Yan Huan’s adopted mother, right?

"In other words, Senior Sister Ye, you’re one of the few family members Yan Huan has had at Linmen all these years, without any blood relation.

"So, it’s fair to say you’re the closest person to Yan Huan, isn’t it?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Shiyu did not respond but relaxed her grip on her phone slightly.

Sakuragi Hitomi felt puzzled.

She was aware of the President and Bai Yi filming the MV, but she didn’t know they met Ye Shiyu there as well.

She hadn’t dismantled the cameras at that time either.

Even with the cameras in place, she was unaware of certain things, and now, without a single camera, she had no idea what the President was up to...

That desire to spy on Yan Huan resurfaced, compelling Sakuragi Hitomi to prick her palm with her nails, trying to suppress the urge with pain.

At that moment, Bai Yi turned to look at Sakuragi Hitomi and said,

"Vice President Sakuragi, the only Inner Court student in the student council. You’ve been assisting Yan Huan since he became the student council president.

"From entering school to the end of the first year, for a whole year, you can say Yan Huan’s high school life has been entirely intertwined with you, right?

"So, it’s fair to say you’re the person who’s been with Yan Huan the longest, isn’t it?"

Just about to lash out, Sakuragi Hitomi was startled and then awkwardly averted her gaze.

"Well, this..."

But the feeling barely lasted a second before she realized something, looking suspiciously at the smiling Bai Yi,

"Hang on, you mean... we’re the three closest and most hopeful to the President?"

"Uh-huh~"

"...Senior Sister Ye and I are easy to understand, but may I ask, in what way are you close to the President and most hopeful?"
