"...Actually, our relationship has returned to normal." Natsume Rinno opened her mouth in confusion.
No, their current relationship isn't normal. How can a sibling relationship turn into a romantic relationship?
Yukino stood up, smiled like an angel, and stroked his head lovingly.
"No need to explain or quibble. I have seen through your lies, Rinno. Don't worry, I will save you from the abyss of the cold war."
Relying on her imagination and her ability to disobey others, Yukino walked out of the activity room and signaled to him with her eyes.
'Come out quickly, or the door will be locked.'
The Sobu High School campus is exceptionally quiet at dusk. Homebodies leave school early and club activities are mostly concentrated inside the buildings. Only from the direction of the playground can lively sounds be heard.
After locking the door of the activity room, Yukino walked in front with her bag, the bright red sunlight falling on her beautiful school uniform.
I don’t know why, even though it’s the same school uniform, it looks more beautiful on her than on others, just like he looks more handsome than other boys.
"Is the club activity over?"
After she turned the corner and coughed to remind him, Natsume slowly followed her.
"No."
Yukino said simply, "We have to go put up flyers now. We won't be done until we're done."
The speed of action is really enviable. As soon as the plan is made, flyers are made and put into action.
"How do you live these days?"
When they arrived at the bulletin board and were looking for an empty space to post things, Yukino suddenly asked.
"Ah?" Natsume Rinno instinctively started to talk nonsense: "Begging, and picking up trash, you know Tokyo is an international metropolis, as long as you are good at discovering, you will never starve to death..."
From the moment she heard him begging, Yukino stood on tiptoe to stick the flyer in a higher place, and after he finished talking nonsense, she smiled.
"So you're begging. I thought you survived by selling your beauty, Rinno."
"Hehe, I haven't fallen to that level yet, don't slander me." Natsume Rinno was quite serious and put the blame on Yukino.
"And sticking it in this position can really have an effect."
Yukino, who was a little angry at first, had her attention diverted. She took a few steps back, looked at the billboard, pinched her chin and remained silent for a few minutes.
"I'm not sure, but I've made an effort. It's better than just sitting in the activity room and reading books stupidly."
"Have you finished reading all the books?" Natsume Rinno asked curiously.
"No."
"Oh~"
The deliberately prolonged tone made Yukino glare at him again. She felt like he was mocking her, but she couldn't find any evidence.
When they arrived at the place where they were going to say goodbye, Yukinoshita Yukino suddenly said, "If you are short of money, I still have some here. After renting the house, there will be no major expenses. If you need anything, just ask."
"Even though you don't seem to want to admit it, we are family after all."
Chapter 22 You guys really have an affair
The back of Yukinoshita Yukino as she left alone looked particularly desolate. Natsume rubbed his forehead and felt that he still could not accept Yukino's money.
It was his skill to get money from Haruno, but taking Yukino's money was a bit deceptive.
He is not short of money.
"Oh, she looks very sad. How about buying her a gift later?"
A few days after Yukino confirmed her club activities, as expected, she was not idle enough to look for the school club to resolve the conflict.
Natsume Rinno enjoys her leisure time. These days, she stays in the activity room to read after school, and she even plans to bring her computer to write.
Yukino was not in a hurry and remained calm. Except for a teacher who was still confused, the world seemed so harmonious.
"So, Mr. Hiratsuka, is there something you want to ask me?"
During lunch break, Natsume Rinno was standing in the office yawning.
He wouldn't be so casual if it were any other teacher. After spending a long time with Shizuka Hiratsuka, in addition to the impression of a violent person, he could also roughly see that her personality was the type that didn't like to make the teacher-student relationship too serious.
"You've joined the Service Club?" After grading the last test paper in her hand, Shizuka Hiratsuka turned around and looked at him. There was both confusion and understanding in her round eyes.
"Ah."
"I urged you so much at the beginning, but you didn't do anything. Why did you suddenly change your attitude after a few days?" Turning the pen in her hand, Shizuka Hiratsuka was very suspicious that someone was behind it.
"It's impossible that you suddenly wanted to pursue Yukinoshita-san in just these few days."
"Maybe." Natsume Rinno sighed and took the test paper from her.
He is indeed a gentle boy, as he can satisfy the teacher's fantasy in this way!
"Really? Be careful or her sister might kill you. Don't forget to take your test paper. There are no mistakes. I spent so much time looking for it." Shizuka Hiratsuka jokingly handed over the last test paper.
Yukinoshita Haruno does have the urge to kill, but it is hard to judge who the target will be.
A scumbag who cheated on his sister-in-law, or a younger sister who seduced her brother-in-law?
Or maybe it was the evil brother who attacked his sister!
Bah! It was something that hadn't happened yet, yet he had the time to think about it so much.
"Are you free after school tonight? You've been helping me for so long, so I'll treat you to a meal."
When he walked to the door with the test paper in his arms, Shizuka Hiratsuka suddenly said.
"Teacher, is it the family restaurant in front of the school?" Natsume Rinno was still a little picky.
"If you think it's inappropriate, then pay for it yourself. How about Ginza? I want to go in and sit down every time I pass by. Natsume, do you want to fulfill your teacher's wish?" Shizuka Hiratsuka narrowed her eyes, revealing her sharp teeth.
"Let's go to the family restaurant. Goodbye, Mr. Hiratsuka." Natsume Rinno disappeared from the office swiftly.
Even if he was tired of the meals served at the school gate, there was no need for him to use his hard-earned money to treat teachers with stable incomes to a meal.
Besides, we went to a high-end consumption place.
However, these days, Yukinoshita Haruno seemed to have forgotten the existence of her boyfriend. Not to mention going out to meet him, she didn't even send him many messages, which made him feel like she was being kept by a cloud.
That’s great, life is getting better and better.
I hope that in the next three years, Yukinoshita Haruno will be able to forget about him in this way, so that everyone can spend this time in peace.
Obviously, this is just Natsume's wishful thinking.
"Another perfect score? How did you do that?"
After handing out the test papers, Totsuka Ayaka sat next to Natsume, picked up his test paper and checked the answers.
"It's not that difficult. As long as I allocate a little time to Chinese, I can satisfy Mr. Hiratsuka."
He recalled the experience of reviewing in Yangno's room that day.
It seems that in dangerous moments, the brain becomes extra developed.
"It's easy to say, but we have an exam soon. Shall we have a study session together?" Totsuka Ayaka said after correcting the wrong questions.
"I have something to do tonight, let's talk about it later when we are free."
Natsume lay on the table, supporting the center of a circle with his palms, and looked at the dazzling sun in the sky through the window.
Summer has arrived in Tokyo.
……
Mr. Hiratsuka made an appointment with him for after the club activities ended, but Natsume Rinno asked for leave in advance and left school after class.
I sat leisurely at home for nearly two hours before I slowly rushed over.
Because he felt he was outside the school, he dressed very casually, and when he walked to the restaurant, it was the busiest time, with many classmates who had finished their club activities coming in and out in front of the door.
"Natsume, this way!"
As soon as he opened the door, he heard a cheerful call from the window. Hiratsuka Shizuka, who was wearing casual clothes like him, was sitting there and was particularly conspicuous.
Although she is a new teacher, Shizuka Hiratsuka's reputation in the school has long been established through her martial arts skills, but it is not as exaggerated as Yukino said.
When Natsume Rinno walked to her seat and found that it was the most expensive yakiniku set meal in the store, she felt that the trip was worth it.
"Wait a moment, some people haven't arrived yet."
"Huh?" Natsume Rinno, who had sat down, greeted and was about to start eating, asked in confusion.
Shizuka Hiratsuka had no intention of explaining. She glanced at the time, then raised her head to look towards the restaurant door. When she saw the people waiting, she smiled happily.
"This way, this way!"
Yukino, who was carrying a bag on her shoulder, saw the active Hiratsuka-sensei and walked over with a sigh.
"Hiratsuka-sensei, is there something you want me to do?"
The conversation continued until she noticed Natsume Rinno sitting there. She was originally helpless, but now she was burning with fighting spirit and said in a cold voice: "Is this what you told me about the important thing tonight?"
"Eating is indeed very important." Natsume Rinno didn't expect that Mr. Hiratsuka would call her out.
“Ah, aha…”
Yukino was about to continue speaking when Shizuka Hiratsuka couldn't stand it anymore. Making such a fuss in front of the teacher was simply ignoring her existence.
"Both of you, sit down and be quiet."
Hiratsuka Shizuka, who usually doesn't look very majestic but can still scare people when she's serious, spoke. The two looked at each other, and everything was hidden in their eyes.
She was about to move to the window seat to make way for Yukino, but she had already pushed Natsume to the wall and sat down on her own.
This level of proficiency really shows that they have a relationship.
"Teacher Hiratsuka, why did you call us out?" After putting her bag down, Yukino took the tissue from Natsume and wiped the table again.
"I had something to say, but now I feel like there's no need to say it." Shizuka Hiratsuka picked up a piece of barbecue and put it in her mouth.
She had seen that the two of them had a tacit understanding, but seemed to be having a quarrel, so she planned to find an opportunity to help ease the situation. But now it seems completely unnecessary.
"Teacher Hiratsuka, you also like to leave things unsaid, right?" Natsume said dissatisfiedly.
"I just want you to have a better relationship, that's all."
"That girl from the international class, Yukinoshita..."
