"Is it that simple? Isn't it said that she is very difficult to approach?" Natsume couldn't understand her thoughts.
"It is precisely because of the difficulties that we need Natsume's succubus physique. Anyway, I have high hopes for you." She took it upon herself to have high hopes for Natsume and entrusted him with the important task.
As for the actions after the date, Natsume has already made a rough guess based on the clues in the group chat.
Judging from Yukinoshita's superficial experience, the relationship between them was not broken, it was just that Kasumigaoka-senpai could not stand the ridicule and chose to resist the other party.
As long as Eriri takes the initiative to apologize and admits her mistake, she believes that the relationship between the two will definitely be restored to normal.
But will Eriri-senpai apologize?
Natsume is kept in the dark for the time being, and at the same time, feeling guilty, he is ready to sell his body to seduce Kasumigaoka Utaha.
"By the way, what excuse should I use to get out?"
Natsume suddenly asked when they were about to part.
Yukino looked at him helplessly, rubbing her hair, not knowing how to teach him a lesson: "Which of us is the boy? Why do you have to ask me for an excuse to ask a girl out?"
"It's my first time asking someone out. In the past, it was always others who asked me out."
"Well, it seems that you go out on dates quite frequently." Yukino laughed at him, "Just use the excuse that someone else asked you out. Anyway, with your succubus physique, there shouldn't be any accidents."
No matter how many times Natsume had to tell him, he was not a succubus, but when he thought of senior Kasumigaoka's expression just now, Natsume hesitated again.
Why do I feel like he can call the other person out with just any excuse?
……
On Thursday, the bell rang for the end of get out of class.
"Natsume." Teacher Hiratsuka glanced around the restless classroom and said, "Come to my office at noon."
"Oh, okay, teacher."
After the teacher left, Totsuka, who was sitting right behind him, poked him on the back, "Want to review after school? Let's go to the nearby family restaurant."
As the exam week approached, the study atmosphere in the class became more lively. Even when the students gathered together after class, the focus of discussion turned to study.
That's right. After all, it is a group of celebrities and not a group of gangsters. Even though the big sister Miura usually gives people the aura of a social person, they are surprisingly not bad in studying.
"You're treating?" Natsume glanced at Totsuka.
The family restaurant they were talking about was the place where Shizuka Hiratsuka had treated everyone to a meal in order to bring him and Yukino closer.
This is also the place with the largest number of students from Sobu High School. You only need to buy a drink and get a few hours of air conditioning to review your lessons. It is really cost-effective.
"I can only treat you to a drink. I don't have much pocket money this month." Totsuka looked at him eagerly.
He came from a well-off family and had plenty of pocket money. The fact that he became penniless in the middle of the month was probably because he spent money on buying expensive sports equipment.
Natsume was just talking casually, and seeing the young guy was satisfied with just getting a drink, he patted his chest and agreed.
"I'll ask for leave from the director right now. I'll have to take you to review even if you don't go to the club activities."
At noon, he rushed to Mr. Hiratsuka's office before the bell rang, ready to see what the older single woman was going to do.
"Natsume is here, come here." Shizuka Hiratsuka called him from her desk.
The office was particularly busy just after school. Teachers were preparing to go to the cafeteria in groups. When he met a teacher he knew, he would stop to say hello. When he squeezed in front of Shizuka Hiratsuka, he felt a little exhausted.
"That won't do. Remember to exercise more."
"Yes, teacher." Natsume responded weakly.
He felt that he had good physical strength when exercising, but when he really started to compete, he found that he was still a little weak. After all, his daily job was to stay on campus and type, so it was very difficult to maintain normal physical strength.
Do you really need to exercise?
That way you won't be able to sleep in.
Natsume, who had originally planned to live a retirement life during high school, fell into deep thought.
"How are you doing in the Service Club? Are you getting along well with Yukinoshita-san?"
Shizuka Hiratsuka didn't rush into the business and started talking to him about the club.
"They're all okay. As for Yukinoshita-san, I have a very good relationship with her." When talking about very good, Natsume's tone was filled with deep resentment.
He joined the Service Club because he was framed by the sisters. Moreover, after joining, Yukino showed no awareness of being a younger sister. Instead, she used her position as the club leader to stir up ripples in his peaceful retirement life.
"That's good." Shizuka Hiratsuka nodded with relief, thinking that bringing the two of them together was a very wise thing to do.
Not only did I fulfill the old students' request, but I also helped two lonely students find good friends. This is something that a gold medal teacher like me can accomplish.
"Eh?"
There's no subtext to be heard in this tone, no wonder Mr. Hiratsuka hasn't found a partner yet.
"But Natsume-san, you can't neglect your studies just because you're obsessed with club activities. The first semester is about to end, so remember to review well."
Chapter 43 is outrageous
"Teacher, but you were advising me not to be obsessed with studying some time ago and to allocate more time to club activities." Natsume reminded her.
"They are not the same thing!" Shizuka Hiratsuka knocked on the table with a strange smile on her face.
She pulled Natsume to her side and whispered to him, "The school has a reward for the homeroom teacher who ranks first in the exam. I heard the amount is not small. Natsume, don't you have the urge to get a bonus for the teacher?"
"Teacher, I really don't have that." Natsume looked at her sincerely.
Are you kidding? Why would he fight for the bonus for older single women? He won't get any of the money.
"I'll treat you to a big dinner when I get the bonus." Shizuka Hiratsuka had no intention of giving up. She looked around the office and after making sure there were no other colleagues around, she started to bribe her students.
Natsume raised an eyebrow and bargained, "It can't be a family restaurant at the school gate anymore."
"That's easy. You can choose any restaurant in Tokyo then." Teacher Hiratsuka agreed very readily, which also made Natsume sure that the reward from the school seemed to be quite a lot.
However, the treatment of teachers at Sobu High School is not bad, and Mr. Hiratsuka should not be short of money. How did he fall to the point of relying on students to make extra money?
He felt the need to satisfy his curiosity, and since Shizuka Hiratsuka probably had no ability to resist at this time, he asked directly, "Teacher, the salary of teachers at Sobu High School is not low, right?"
When talking about treatment, Shizuka Hiratsuka, who is usually quite dignified, immediately opened up and complained to him in the office where only two people were.
"Young man, do you know how expensive it is to live in Tokyo? Besides, I can't always rent an apartment in Tokyo. I just bought a car and I have to pay off the loan. There are places where I need money."
Finally, she concluded with deep disgust: "The biggest problem is still the house. If there is no such pressure, I can live very comfortably on my salary."
Natsume understood this deeply and rarely agreed with her.
The housing prices in Tokyo are so horrible.
"Teacher, I will try my best in the exam."
After expressing his determination, Natsume was stopped again before leaving, and Hiratsuka Shizuka told him a piece of news in advance.
"Parents' conference?"
"Well, starting next semester, try to find a related relative to come over. You can't really skip the exam and live in seclusion in the countryside like you said."
Knowing his situation, Shizuka Hiratsuka did not mention her parents and focused the conversation on the ideal that Natsume had expressed at the beginning.
"If there is really no other way, I will talk to the principal and ask you to fill out a form."
After leaving the office, Natsume actually felt that Mr. Hiratsuka was a kind person. Although he was particularly outstanding in martial arts, he was indeed a qualified teacher.
After school family restaurant.
Totsuka Ayaka found a seat by the window, reserved her seat with her bag and textbooks, and then took the initiative to run to the counter to order food.
Because the exams are approaching, there seem to be fewer people participating in club activities, and there is a constant stream of people coming here to review.
Natsume had just opened his math textbook when Totsuka sat down opposite him with two drinks in his hands. When he saw the part he had turned to, he showed an interested expression.
"Why do I feel like you and I are not in the same class? Here's a drink."
"Thank you." Natsume took the drink and flipped through the textbook slowly.
He also took out his Chinese textbook and prepared to review the parts he didn't know.
"Yukinoshita-san, there's no room left."
Just as they were immersed in their own world, an unfamiliar voice spoke out a familiar last name.
Looking up, I saw the blonde senior with tiger teeth standing at the door of the restaurant. The tall woman next to her was the department manager that Natsume had just asked for leave from.
Yukinoshita, with her bag slung over her shoulder, frowned at the bustling restaurant.
He glanced around and immediately found someone who could be bullied.
He walked up to Natsume carrying the senior who was trying to escape. Without saying a word, his aura of "keep away from strangers" was enough to scare Totsuka.
"Yue, Yukinoshita-san..."
Without needing to be reminded, he obediently gave up his seat and sat next to Natsume.
Yukinoshita sat down with Eriri, picked up the menu on the table, and ordered as if no one was around: "Two free drinks, thank you."
"Hey, we're not waiters, and why are you here, boss?" Natsume said.
Yukinoshita's grades are not bad, or rather, those in the international class all have good grades, and Yukinoshita is the best among them, and is also the biggest obstacle for Hiratsuka teacher to get the bonus.
"This is my problem." Eriri raised her hand with her fangs showing, and said embarrassedly: "I have an exam soon, but my English is not very good, so I would like to ask Yukinoshita to help me with my homework."
Yukino put down the menu, looking at Totsuka who was sitting inside and had the urge to run errands, and rolled her eyes at Natsume who was smiling across from her.
"I was planning to find time to review my lessons, so bringing my senior along shouldn't affect anything."
After saying that, she left her bag on the seat and got up and went to the counter.
Natsume pinched his chin and looked at the lovely senior Eriri, and a doubt arose in his mind.
"Um, Natsume-san..." Eriri felt embarrassed when he stared at her, but it was inconvenient for her to reveal her true self in front of other classmates, so she could only gently remind him.
"Oh sorry, Eriri-senpai, aren't you British?"
Under the urging of Minister Yukinoshita, Natsume is indeed trying to understand the basic information of other people in the school, although he doesn't know what the use of it is.
What is certain about Eriri is that she is of British and Japanese descent and her father is a diplomat.
However, she actually wanted Yukinoshita, a pure islander, to teach English.
Just outrageous.
"Yes, but I seldom go back to England."
