Does this mean that she feels that she will never get a "response"?
Responding is more than just answering.
And the meaning of the word "love".
atmosphere
The atmosphere on this rainy day.
It's a bit heavy.
Fujii Itsuki cleared his throat and said, "How about I go to your house today?"
".Isn't Xiaoyue still at the teacher's house?"
"Yue is in Sapporo. On the one hand, doesn't she have her modeling work? She has to go there occasionally to take photos. On the other hand, the dean is also in Sapporo. She doesn't have to go to school at the moment, so she can go see the dean."
"."
"Xinchun doesn't welcome me?"
"No, of course not!"
Matsumae Shinchun almost lifted her shoulder bag with both hands. Her eyes with teardrop moles were particularly bright, big and beautiful under the gray rain curtain.
"It's just that I don't have anything good prepared at home right now, and Xinchun doesn't think we can entertain the teacher well."
"Xinchun, do you think that Senior Brother would care about this? You are studying hard for your final exams, so I can help you with your homework."
"OK then."
"Why are you still reluctant?"
"Really do not have!"
Seeing that Matsumae Shinharu emphasized this point so seriously, Fujii Itsuki smiled and took her onto the bus.
After getting off the car, Fujii Itsuki returned to Matsumae Shinchun's temporary hut, which was very close to Kuka's house. He put away his umbrella, put on slippers, and walked into the living room.
As soon as I entered the living room, I saw a big-tailed fox lying lazily on the sofa and sleeping.
When it saw someone coming back, it didn't even blink.
"Is Baihua going to hibernate?"
"Ah?" Matsumae Xinchun took a look and explained, "No, Master Baihua is just resting."
"Why does it look so listless? It was so energetic before."
".Master Bai Hua said Xinchun was too stupid and didn't want to teach her."
"what is this?"
Fujii Itsuki could see that Xinchun was worried now, and her response to him was not as enthusiastic as before, but she was still somewhat happy about his arrival.
She quickly brought out the mousse cake she had made earlier, paired it with some tea that she had carefully prepared, and finally sat down obediently opposite.
Because the tea was different from what she had drunk before, Fujii Itsuki aroused her interest after chatting with her for a few words, and she kept covering her face with her hands to laugh.
". I still had the most fun chatting with Mr. Fujii."
"Really? Anyway, we've almost finished our tea, how about we start studying?"
"Okay!"
The girl went to get her exercise book quite briskly, then came and sat down next to Fujii Itsuki with a pile of textbooks, notebooks, workbooks, and test papers.
"Which subject do you find most difficult right now?"
"I don't quite understand some of the questions on Math Bar, such as the regression line equation and some variants of extreme value inequalities."
“Then learn mathematics first.”
"it is good!"
Matsumae Shinchun happily agreed, as if all the gloom of the past few days had been swept away.
She was very serious when studying, because Mr. Fujii also taught very seriously. He taught her carefully where the mistakes were, what logic to use, and where to guide her.
Matsumae Shinchun liked it most when he would lean close to her shoulder and point at the questions and explain them to her.
At this time, we are getting along the closest.
It's so embarrassing.
"Now Xinchun can tell me what's on your mind, right?"
Fujii Itsuki's sudden question prevented Matsumae Shinchun from reacting for the first two seconds, but then she immediately understood the cause and effect of it all.
"Then the teacher takes care of me so much because he noticed my mood?"
"Of course not," Fujii Itsuki replied casually, "You are just a kid whose face is almost covered with the word loneliness. If I don't keep you company, you will probably say something sad to me again."
"But. But"
The girl hesitated.
"Teacher Fujii noticed that Xinchun was sad, so he came to Xinchun's house to accompany her. Isn't that...not good...?"
Fujii Itsuki laughed: "You still feel that I haven't always taken care of you, so you are a little angry, right?"
"No. Xinchun doesn't dare."
"Xinchun, you don't have to hide anything when you talk to me. Just tell me what you really think."
When Matsumae Shinchun heard what he said, she felt relieved.
The girl puffed up her face slightly, raised her eyes slightly, and looked at him, muttering with a little complaint:
".Fujii-sensei has been hiding from Xinchun these days, Xinchun is very sad."
"How sad can it be?"
".The kind that would secretly wipe away tears when sleeping alone at night."
"Don't you have Bai Hua with you?"
"Master Bai Hua can't give me a hug like a brother."
"Ugh——!"
"Look, Bai Hua is jealous."
".But what Xinchun said is the truth."
When this kid is sad, he's really sad.
I feel like I'm in tears all day long, but I'm trying hard not to let anyone notice.
When she's happy, she's also kind of cute and straightforward.
Since the girl had just said those words, Fujii Itsuki naturally had to show some reaction, using a smile and some subtle gestures to indicate that she could come closer.
Matsumae Shinchun was very happy.
But I was a reserved child, so I moved towards him timidly, until they were almost close to each other, then I threw myself into his arms.
The girl seemed to be breathing in his arms.
"still."
"Call the teacher."
"Yeah," the girl agreed softly, closing her eyes, her voice sounding like she was enjoying it, "It's still warmer in the teacher's arms."
"Is that so?" Fujii Itsuki hugged her and could only feel the girl's close dependence on him.
This action of snuggling in my arms is so cute.
"Teacher wants to ask Matsumae-san something. Are you willing to answer?"
"Um"
"What's with all the exercise books in school? I don't remember that many homework assignments in school."
“I bought it at the bookstore myself.”
"What are you trying so hard for?"
"So that the teacher can see me."
"See you?"
"Hasn't the teacher been trying to stay away from Xinchun these days? Whenever Xinchun sends the teacher a cake, the teacher always refuses. Xinchun is often alone at home, so I keep wondering if the teacher is afraid of me and doesn't want to contact me anymore.
“I’m afraid of this.
"So I thought about the midterm exam. That time, I got the first place in the whole school. The teacher gave me a reward, encouragement and a cake. I have never thought that a cake can be so delicious.
"So, I want to maintain my No. 1 position this time and get praised again. Even just a little bit will do."
Do you try so hard to show yourself off just because you want attention and praise?
Spring in my heart.
How come you're becoming more and more like a child?
Fujii Itsuki felt a little touched. On the one hand, he really felt Xinchun's loneliness, and on the other hand, he felt that he had not cared enough about her these days and had even rejected her.
It was like she had been abandoned.
To be honest, Fujii Itsuki still thinks that he shouldn't have agreed to Xinchun.
But the reality is that he doesn't want to give up on her now.
Is it because he feels pity for her, loves her, or is he attracted by her youth and beauty?
Maybe a little bit of both.
In order to confirm this, Fujii Itsuki reached out and touched Matsumae Shinchun's face with his index finger.
She was caught off guard by this somewhat sudden movement.
The cool wind brought with it a drizzle of rain. Even though the window was not open, the rain seemed to blow in and touch the girl's increasingly shy face.
"teacher?"
The eyes were bright and clear, and the voice was weak and tiny.
