I'll keep taking this chapter by chapter but I do think Nagi is going to shake things up one way or another, it's also important to remember that blondie and playboy STILL have not appeared in the present.
If Katsura wanted to truly seal the deal between Fumi and Shinobu and leave no chance for Sakura to reconcile with Shinobu then this chapter would have had a scene of Sakura having sex with playboy but it didn't, blondie is also strangely absent after her whole buddy thing with Sakura.
For all we know, Sakura might have distanced herself from them after the timeskip, maybe she's feeling shameful but we just don't know because that's another factor, Sakura's POV is still not being shown.
We also still don't know if this series will end soon or no, Nagi reappearing like this to interact with Sakura makes me think we're not quite done yet, that being said I have a few endings in mind for this series.
1). Sakura finds out the truth, seeks out Shinobu, they reconcile, "happy" ending which or may not include hints that Sakura will continue to get taken advantage of by other men or maybe she truly gets better and stays loyal.
2). Sakura finds out the truth, seeks out Shinobu, they reconcile but don't get back together as Shinobu has actually moved on with Fumi, Sakura tearfully accepts this and wishes Shinobu the best, cut to happy end with Fumi.
3). Sakura finds out the truth, seeks out Shinobu, they reconcile but don't get back together as Shinobu has actually moved on with Fumi, Sakura tearfully accepts this and wishes Shinobu the best but despite this, Shinobu can't move on from Sakura still, this starts to get to Fumi and eventually she gets fucked by another guy too, Shinobu breaks and spends the rest of his days watching Sakura's content while jerking off.
4). Sakura finds out the truth, seeks out Shinobu, they reconcile but don't get back together as Shinobu has actually moved on with Fumi, Sakura tearfully accepts this and wishes Shinobu the best, Fumi and Shinobu get together but after some nonsense happens (not necessarily NTR) they break up, we get a loner end where Shinobu is a successful director and the ending has him crossing paths with Sakura, leaving it open to the readers as to what happens next between them.
