Even with chuunibyou, let's learn together!

Hayakawa rolled his eyes and sneered.

Yotsuba blushed instantly, looking hurt and aggrieved. She picked up the towel and muttered softly, "I'll go first, okay..."

No, I must ask Nino for cooking lessons when I get back. I need to know at least the simplest cooking techniques. Otherwise, it would be too lame of me to be laughed at by Hayakawa just for going into the kitchen.

"Or we could shower together,"

Hayakawa suddenly said, "This is the most time-efficient way."

Yotsuba's body stiffened instantly, her pretty face turning bright red. She opened her mouth but could only manage a gurgling sound as her stomach was being squeezed. Her throat bobbed violently, and after a long while, she finally said, embarrassed and annoyed, "Who...who wants to shower with you! I don't want to!"

Hayakawa didn't turn around. He washed his hands in the kitchen and prepared to chop vegetables and cook, while Yotsuba watched him warily from behind.

What will he say...?

Yotsuba's mind went blank as she recalled her shameless act of comforting him last night.

What should I do if Hayakawa sneers at me and says something like, "After what happened last night, why are you still pretending to be an innocent girl?"

They must be really hurt.

But he couldn't refute it, because what Hayakawa said was true.

Chapter 437 Newlywed Life

Yotsuba couldn't refute Hayakawa, because it was all true.

After careful consideration, Yotsuba even felt that Hayakawa was more right than she was.

Even under those circumstances, Hayakawa considered the safety issue and forced himself to release her.

Hayakawa was genuinely thinking of herself and didn't want to hurt herself, but she only wanted to give herself away completely, and even after being released, she was still tempting others.

In contrast, Hayakawa is more like a mature adult, while I am just a child with only emotions of joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, doing what I like without considering the consequences.

"Um…"

Yotsuba pressed her lips tightly together. At this moment, she couldn't help but start fantasizing, imagining what would have happened if Hayakawa hadn't refused her last night and the two of them had gone all the way.

First of all, this morning will definitely be more troublesome, and the worst-case scenario is that she is indeed pregnant. In that case, she will definitely be expelled from school, both sets of parents will meet, and then the issue of marriage will be discussed...

Hmm, it seems pretty good.

Yotsuba blinked and suddenly noticed a blind spot.

Anyway, there's no point in continuing high school with my grades; I'll never get into university anyway, so I might as well drop out.

And she can even marry Hayakawa... It seems like there are only advantages and no disadvantages.

No, no, no…

Yotsuba shook her head vigorously: Isn't this forcing Hayakawa to get married? How is this any different from those bad women online?

My grades are indeed very poor, and dropping out won't have much of an impact. Hayakawa is one of the top students in his grade and a future candidate for Tokyo University. Should I ruin his future for my own selfish reasons?

And she couldn't face her father, sisters, Fumino, and Rizu...

Thinking of Fumino Furuhashi and Rizu Ogata, a strange glint flashed in Yotsuba's eyes.

"What's wrong? Aren't you going to wash up?"

Hayakawa turned to look at Yotsuba and urged, "If you don't go wash up soon, there won't be enough time. Don't wait until I've finished cooking before you've finished washing up."

"Oh okay, I know."

Yotsuba nodded quickly and went into the bathroom. She took off her clothes first and then looked at herself in the mirror.

On her snow-white, delicate skin, her slender body adorned with plump fruit, the youthful and beautiful form of a young girl.

Yotsuba looked at herself in the mirror and remained silent.

There are so many red marks on it...

"oops…"

Yotsuba couldn't help but sigh with worry. As expected, the mark was still left. It seemed that she wouldn't be able to change clothes in front of Ichika and the others for a while. Otherwise, if so many strawberries were discovered, she would be doomed. They would definitely connect it to today and interrogate her to death.

Ah, Ichika!

Yotsuba suddenly remembered something and quickly took out her phone from her clothes to open the chat interface.

I had promised myself I would go back last night and even asked Ichika to keep it a secret, but Hayakawa insisted I stay, and then I forgot to tell her!

Upon opening the chat interface, Ichika indeed sent a message, but it contained only one character and was sent an hour after I finished my phone call with her.

Ichika:?

"..."

A single character can contain so many emotions: confusion, anger, and mockery.

When I type a question mark, it's not that I have a problem, it's that you have a problem!

"never mind…"

Yotsuba put down her phone helplessly, intending to explain to Ichika in person at school.

Anyway, Ichika will probably help me fool the other sisters, after all, she's the mature eldest sister.

Yotsuba comforted herself, since none of her other sisters had sent messages to question her, so she must have passed the test.

She turned on the tap, and water sprayed out from the showerhead. Yotsuba closed her eyes, feeling the warm touch that soothed away the fatigue and inner turmoil of the night.

……

Hayakawa made fish porridge, fried eggs, and bacon sandwiches, along with some seasoned pickles and two cups of hot milk, and laid them out on the table in a large spread.

This is a bit much for breakfast, but since Yotsuba takes breakfast so seriously, Hayakawa doesn't mind making a little more.

He had done many outrageous things to her last night, so Hayakawa felt a rare pang of guilt and wanted to make amends.

As soon as she finished setting out breakfast, Yotsuba came out drying her hair, much faster than when she took a shower last night. After all, time was tight, and she only took a quick shower.

"So many!"

Yotsuba arrived at the dining table and couldn't help but ask, "Can we finish this?"

"Yes, you can give me what you can't finish."

Hayakawa said succinctly, then added, "You keep eating, I'm going to take a shower."

"Oh well."

Yotsuba blushed slightly and nodded gently.

Watching Hayakawa enter the bathroom, Yotsuba looked at the lavish Hayakawa in front of her and felt her face burning.

It feels like we're interacting like newlyweds, but when I think about it, I'm being really unreasonable. I shower first, and Hayakawa cooks the meal first, then I eat first, and he does all the dishes afterward. This is definitely not how a typical newlywed couple interacts.

I always need to do something...

Yotsuba picked up a spoon, gently scooped up some porridge, blew on it lightly, and then put it in her mouth.

"Delicious…"

……

On the path in front of the tram station, boys and girls ran swiftly, speeding along the way.

"Yotsuba, it's all your fault,"

Hayakawa, panting heavily with his schoolbag on his back, finally couldn't help but scold Yotsuba: "If you hadn't insisted on causing trouble, why would we be in such a rush!"

"Well…"

Yotsuba felt as if an arrow had struck her heart, and she lowered her head, feeling wronged and speechless.

"Really."

Hayakawa was furious. He had just finished showering and was planning to eat breakfast quickly and head to the train station, but Yotsuba suddenly did something and moved a chair next to him, insisting on feeding him porridge. As a result, the ample time they had was now stretched thin, and the two of them had to run to the train station to catch the train.

Yotsuba followed beside him with her head down, reaching out to help Hayakawa with his schoolbag, but then putting it down.

She fed Hayakawa because she wanted to do something, but things didn't go as she expected, and it ended up having the opposite effect.

As expected, that idiot Wu Qi is just good at messing things up...

Yotsuba lowered her head and arrived at the tram stop. Just as she stood down, the tram arrived.

"Very good, safe."

Hayakawa breathed a sigh of relief as the train approached. Seeing Yotsuba still looking dejected, he reached out and patted her head, comforting her, "It's okay, we made it, didn't we?"

"Um…"

Yotsuba nodded gently, and the two of them boarded the tram one after the other.

There were no seats on the tram during the morning rush hour, so the two found a corner to huddle together to avoid the crowds inside.

Yotsuba's back was against the wall of the train, while Hayakawa's arms were protecting her in front, making her feel very safe.

Chapter 438 You're here to learn, right?

Even with Hayakawa protecting her, Yotsuba still felt stuffy and crowded; that's how it is on the trains during Japan's morning rush hour.

"Well…"

The tram swayed, and Yotsuba lost her balance, accidentally bumping her head against the wall behind her, letting out a groan of pain and pouting.

Hayakawa reached out and rubbed the spot where she had bumped her head, then placed his hand behind her head.

Yotsuba looked up and glanced at him. Their eyes met briefly. Hayakawa's gaze was calm and indifferent, while Yotsuba's eyes were wandering and evasive. She only glanced at him once before quickly lowering her head and burying her chin in it.

Two seconds later, she rested her head on Hayakawa's chest, looking relieved.

This kind of time is wonderful; I wish it could last forever…

However, it is not possible.

Once they arrived at school, the two of them had to separate.

Yotsuba pursed her lips, tiptoed, and whispered in Hayakawa's ear, "Hayakwa, listen to me..."

"Don't let anyone else know about our relationship."

Hayakawa turned to look at her in surprise, and although he didn't say anything, his eyes said it all.

After a long silence, Hayakawa frowned and said, "What are you talking about? The time you came here pretending to be Nino? The time I tutored you, or last night in my room…"

"Shut up!"

Yotsuba instantly lost her composure and quickly covered Hayakawa's mouth with both hands, glancing nervously around as she did so, afraid that some of Ichinose students she knew might hear.

Seeing that no one had noticed anything amiss on her side, Yotsuba breathed a sigh of relief. She first glared at Hayakawa resentfully, then bit her pink lips and said, "All of them."

"what?"

Hayakawa frowned: "I can't understand why you don't want to talk about what happened in my room. I can also help you cover up the fact that you pretended to be Nino, but you don't need to hide the fact that you came here for tutoring. If you're going to hide it, are you going to make up another excuse every time you study?"

"Uh…"

Yotsuba hadn't expected this and was immediately stunned.

Oh right, I was ordered by Hayakawa to improve my grades, so I definitely need Hayakawa to tutor me during school hours or on weekends. But I can't always make excuses, so I should tell my friends about Hayakawa's tutoring.

"Um…"

After thinking for a long time, Yotsuba looked at Hayakawa and tentatively suggested, "How about we get some extra lessons?"

Hayakawa's face instantly turned ugly, and he crossed his arms, his eyes gradually turning cold. He said in a chilling voice, "Do you want to graduate with a single-digit grade? Oh, you won't graduate at all, because you'll repeat a year."

"..."

I really don't want to repeat a grade. It's already painful enough to have gone through this once, and I don't want to go through it a second time. I also want to help my classmates improve their studies and pass the exams.

"Okay, I'll talk to my sisters about this."

Yotsuba hesitated for a moment before nodding, then immediately realized what she meant and said angrily, "Hey, don't change the subject! That's not the point. The point is you're trying to hide that..."

Before Hayakawa could even ask what that matter was, Yotsuba revealed it herself.

"It's just that I like you,"

Yotsuba blushed and whispered, "And then you... about me... too."

"..."

The way it was spoken was so vague that no one else could understand it at all.
