Even with chuunibyou, let's learn together!

After saying that, Ichika sent several more dog emojis in a row, trying to look cute.

Hayakawa frowned as he watched. He couldn't get used to this high-intensity emoji-filled chat style at all. If you're going to talk, just talk. Why send emojis so frequently?

Hayakawa typed a reply with a blank expression.

"It's too early to talk about this, and it's very impolite to say that on our first meeting."

"We are still high school students. You should know what a high school student's primary responsibility is, right?"

"It's about learning..."

One Flower: Stop, stop.

Ichika sent several emojis of someone covering their mouth, and then sent a cat covering its ears in a distressed state.

Ichika: Hayakawa-kun is too serious. He was just joking with you. Besides, you always bring up study-related things in just a few sentences. I know what you're going to say without even thinking.

Ichika: I feel like I can even mimic Hayakawa-kun's way of speaking: Studying is an important primary task. What is the meaning of youth? It's an old cliché.

Then at least listen to what I'm saying.

You remember everything I say, but you don't listen to a word I say, right?

Hayakawa's face was as black as coal. He decided to turn off his phone and end the chat, out of sight, out of mind.

Just then, Yihua sent several more messages.

"Besides, how can this be too late? Japan allows university students to get married, so there aren't many years left. You should get closer to your father-in-law as soon as possible. Don't you understand this principle?"

"Could it be that Hayakawa-kun, who appears to be deeply devoted to Nino and Yotsuba, is actually just lusting after their bodies and planning to use them and then abandon them like a scumbag?!"

"How could this happen! A guy I've known for so long has such a dark side. My favorite little sister is about to be cheated on!"

The tone of the text was both shocked and playful, and you could almost see the mischievous smile on Ichika's face as she typed, even through the screen.

"..."

Chapter 516 The Shaking Car

The chat didn't last long, maybe five minutes at most, but in the morning I felt like I had wasted incredibly precious time, to the point of feeling heartbroken.

Chatting with girls is such a waste of my life.

Hayakawa painfully grasped this truth and coldly replied, "If that's what you think, then so be it."

With such a strong intention to keep people at arm's length, shouldn't we end this conversation now?

Just as Hayakawa was thinking, Ichika's next message arrived at lightning speed.

Ichika: I knew it! Hayakawa-kun looks like the kind of guy who seems serious on the surface but is actually a bit of a pervert inside.

Ichika: But it's okay. Even without Nino and Yotsuba, I'm still here. You can still call Daddy your father.

"???"

What's it to you?

Hayakawa frowned, unsure what to say, but Ichika said, "I remember last night Hayakawa-kun promised to take Nino to the movies during the holiday..."

Hayakawa: Yes, how so?

一VIIIIII灵霖焐花: Then you have to promise me that you'll go to the movies with me during the holidays too.

Hayakawa was taken aback at first, then sneered and replied with a single word with a slight twitch of his finger.

"Do not."

Cold and resolute, it can keep all hidden malice outside the city walls.

"So indifferent."

Ichika's resentment can be felt just from reading her words: "We are all Hayakawa's tutors, so why can you agree to Nino's request but not mine? What else can this be but favoritism?"

Hayakawa was completely unaffected by Ichika and responded in a text message.

"First of all, I can't be considered a tutor you hired. I'm just here at your invitation to help you with your studies. Even if I were your tutor, the favoritism would only apply to the scope of academic learning. Does accompanying you to the movies have anything to do with studying?"

Ichika retorted: How is this not favoritism? Studying is bound to be tiring, and when you're tired, you need to rest and balance work and rest. Going to the movies together during the holidays is also part of rest and relaxation, so how is it not part of work? You don't spend time with me but you spend time with Nino, that's just unfair.

Not content with just one sentence, Ichika added a second: "And if you don't consider yourself a tutor I hired, then I can pay you double the market rate. Consider it me sponsoring you, how about that?"

The word "sugar baby" instantly stung Hayakawa's heart, making his breathing become heavy.

Do I, the mighty emperor, need your sugar daddy?

Having been so insulted, Hayakawa finally stopped hiding his anger, and his tone and words became more intense.

"Are you kidding me? If not going to the movies with you is considered favoritism, then wouldn't it mean I have to go with all five sisters to be fair?"

"Whether you accompany others or not is your business. I don't know if they need you to come along, but I'm really looking forward to it. Come with me to the movies, or you can ask them to treat you to dinner or something."

The text message from Ichika seemed to contain a subtle hint, but Hayakawa, blinded by anger, naturally didn't notice and decisively rejected it.

"Don't go!"

"Why? I've already said that you're tired from studying during the holidays and need to relax. Don't you know the importance of balancing work and rest for better efficiency?"

Ichika questioned him somewhat unwillingly.

Hayakawa sneered: "Excuse me, but in my opinion, people who get single-digit grades don't really work hard. It's all about work-life balance. You're not working hard at all, so you don't need to relax."

Ichika's face flushed crimson with shame and indignation. Her fingers flew so fast they were practically blurring as she typed: What did you say?! I'm telling you, what you're saying isn't just hurting me; you're attacking all five of us sisters!

Hayakawa: I'm only targeting you.

Ichika: I hate you!

The two engaged in a heated online exchange, insulting each other. However, Hayakawa clearly had the upper hand. After all, Hayakawa seemed to have almost no weaknesses. Unless someone exploited his inferiority complex due to not being able to get first place, he was basically unbeatable in the field of language. On the other hand, Ichika was much worse in terms of hard skills. Hayakawa mocked him for his poor grades, and Hayakawa could easily manipulate him by saying that Ichika was not smart enough.

Just as things were getting out of hand, the car suddenly stopped abruptly, then shook violently, and Hayakawa fell to the side due to inertia.

Oh no~

Hayakawa was startled and tried to control his body, but it was too late.

If it were just now, there would definitely be no problem. After all, he had been sitting upright and fully focused, so he wouldn't have lost control of his body because of the car suddenly shaking. However, because of the message from Yihua, his attention was now on his phone, so he was naturally unable to react in time to the sudden situation.

"what!"

The other passengers on the bus swayed and staggered. The three people in the second row, Ichika, Yotsuba, and Mayu, let out a small gasp. Hayakawa's body also swayed and fell directly onto Nino next to him, crashing into something.

"Well"

Hayakawa felt his face touch something soft and elastic like a cloud. The rich fragrance instantly filled his nostrils, making him want to sneeze. The smooth elasticity lifted his face slightly into a subtle groove.

Hayakawa was somewhat bewildered, unsure of her situation. Instinctively, she stretched out her arms to try and support herself, but instead bumped into another slender, smooth, silky object.

"What are you doing?!"

Nino's trembling voice rang in his ears. Hayakawa opened his eyes and found Nino's pretty face right above him, staring at him in disbelief, her small, blood-red face filled with unbearable shame.

From this angle, coupled with the soft and sweet feeling on her face, Hayakawa realized that because of the car's swaying, she had actually rested her head on Nino's chest, and her hands, which were trying to prop herself up, were touching her legs covered in black cotton stockings.

"..."

Isn't this just touching her chest and legs...? What's the difference between this and directly engaging in perverted behavior?

In an instant, Hayakawa's mind was filled with all sorts of terrifying fantasies, including the sudden sound of police sirens and the scene of him being expelled from school.

"...Get up quickly."

Seeing that Hayakawa not only didn't get up but was even in a daze, Nino finally couldn't bear it any longer and bit her pink lips, saying in shame and indignation.

Even at this moment, she consciously kept her voice as low as possible, clearly not wanting the other people in the car to notice what was going on. In fact, to prevent Miku sitting next to her from noticing anything unusual, she didn't push Hayakawa with her hands, but only verbally reminded Hayakawa to get up quickly.

Hayakawa reacted instantly, sitting up straight as if electrocuted.

Chapter 517 Become a Real Private Tutor

"I'm sorry everyone."

Mr. Jiang Duan, sitting in the driver's seat, said apologetically, "Just as I got out of the car, a car suddenly drove up illegally, and I didn't react for a moment."

"no problem, no problem."

"That's the car's responsibility, it has nothing to do with you, Mr. Jiang Duan."

"Don't worry."

The five sisters' voices rose and fell, none of them paying attention to this trivial matter, but this naturally did not include Nino, whose chest was still aching slightly.

"call…"

As soon as Hayakawa got up, Nino breathed a sigh of relief, but instead of straightening her clothes or glaring angrily at Hayakawa, she immediately looked to the side.

It wasn't just me and Hayakawa sitting in the back seat; Miku was there too.

If she saw what just happened... especially on this crowded bus, that would be so embarrassing.

Nino was hesitant to think about it and quickly observed Miku's expression. Fortunately, Miku wasn't looking in that direction at all. At that moment, she was covering her head and looked like she was in pain. It seemed that when the car was shaking, her head had accidentally hit the car window next to her. Naturally, she didn't notice anything unusual between Nino and Miku.

Faced with this predicament, even Hayakawa, who is usually calm and collected, was caught off guard and her face showed an unusual expression. Not to mention Nino, who appears generous on the surface but is actually very girlish at heart, she lowered her head and stared at the bottom of the car, not daring to look at Hayakawa even once.

Nino quietly raised her head, her face flushed with complex emotions. She bit her pink lips tightly, and her beautiful eyes flowed with a beautiful and dreamy amber color.

She seemed angry, yet not quite angry; rather, her gaze was filled with other emotions. Her raised eyes seemed to be scrutinizing Hayakawa, as if trying to see through his heart.

Hayakawa's heart skipped a beat. He silently looked away and glanced ahead, only to meet Ichika's indifferent face.

"..."

Having just escaped one wolf's den, they've fallen into another.

Ichika stared blankly at Hayakawa. Clearly, she had seen everything that had happened in the back seat. Just a second before, she was texting Hayakawa and occasionally leaning out of the front seat to peek back. When the car started to shake, she immediately looked back to check on Hayakawa, only to see such an "unbearable" scene.

No wonder she looked like that; it was as if she were frozen in ice.

Hayakawa frowned slightly as he was being stared at like that. He felt that he had no reason to be subjected to such a accusatory gaze. Nino, who was next to him, followed his gaze and naturally met Ichika's eyes. She immediately felt flustered.

Did Ichika see everything just now?!

Nino looked at Ichika with a hint of embarrassment, only to find that Ichika didn't show her usual cheerful and teasing smile at all. Instead, she was staring at her intently with a strange look.

This gaze left Nino somewhat bewildered. It contained an unusual indifference, hostility, and even stubbornness and determination. For a moment, Nino felt that Ichika resembled the face of the iconic building of that country across the distant coastline—the huge metal goddess statue, with its bronze-carved face frozen in stiffness and coldness.

Why...why do you see me that way?

Nino was somewhat bewildered, yet also wary of being discovered by a natural enemy. At that moment, Ichika calmly turned back, and the two cold gazes disappeared.

"..."

Nino remained silent, her mind filled with mixed emotions as she pondered what had just happened, and she didn't interact with Hayakawa again.

Hayakawa was naturally happy to have some peace and quiet and quietly read his book.

And so the time on the train passed.

……

It has to be said that in a modern city with an incredibly fast pace of life, even in Ichinose City, which is far smaller than a metropolis like Tokyo, the traffic congestion during the morning rush hour is still quite severe. Even though Hayakawa and his friends had left home very early and taken the bus to school as soon as possible, they still wasted a lot of time due to traffic jams. By the time they arrived at school, it was almost the same time as their usual school start time. In the end, it might have been better to just take the train, even though it would have been uncomfortable due to the crowds, at least it wouldn't have wasted their time.

It's no wonder that trams have become the most popular and widely used mode of transportation in Japan.

"We're leaving now. Goodbye, Mr. Jiang Duan, and Father."

As soon as the car stopped, the five sisters immediately got out and ran outside.

Hayakawa initially intended to get off the bus, but then seemed to remember something and chose to sit back down, planning to wait until the five sisters had walked a distance before getting off herself.

We're already very close to the school. If I get off the bus with the five sisters, people I know at the school might see me, and that could lead to rumors.

Hayakawa has encountered some trouble because of rumors in the past, and there are still some lingering connections. People come to him from time to time, whether with good intentions or malice, to ask him about his relationship with so-and-so, which is really not an easy thing to deal with.

He could naturally ignore the rumors, but Hayakawa didn't want the five sisters to be affected by the rumors, as it would impact their studies.

"Hayakawa-kun."

Sitting in the passenger seat, Nakano Maruo noticed Hayakawa getting out and then back into the car, and after a quick glance, he said.

"I am here."

Hayakawa replied, her clear eyes fixed on the middle-aged man.

"You seem to have a very good relationship with my daughter."

Nakano Maruo said meaningfully, "I've raised those kids since they were little, and this is the first time I've ever seen them bring boys to stay overnight at their house."

"I see." Hayakawa's expression remained unchanged as he calmly said, "I was just teaching them; I didn't think too much about it."
