"Come on, answer quickly. As a teacher, it is necessary to know the situation of the students in the class." Hiratsuka Shizuka's face was full of curiosity.
"Hiratsuka-sensei, are you curious about this matter?" Wu Shen complained.
This was the first time he had seen a teacher with such a casual attitude.
"You can say that. I think you know Yukinoshita's character very well, right?" Hiratsuka Shizuka flicked the ash off her cigarette and took another drag, "Obviously, she has a cold temper that can repel people thousands of miles away. But still he has a cold temper. I took the initiative to invite him to join to the club and has always maintained a close relationship. It's hard to let people ignore you."
"I'm really curious as to what qualities in you, Wu Shen, make you so attractive to her. Or is it you, Wu Shen? Do you know any masking techniques?"
"Yes, yes? Yukino and I are just acquaintances, not even friends." Wu Shen's eyes were a little wandering.
"Yukino? You called her very affectionately. Did you call her by her first name and say there is nothing suspicious?" Hiratsuka Shizuka caught the details in Wu Shen's words and asked anxiously.
Oops! It's smooth again!
"Ahem, I'm an international student, so I don't know much about the customs here in Japan. Is there any special meaning in calling me by my first name?" Wu Shen found a perfect excuse for himself by pretending to be stupid!
"Do you always call the other party, Yukino? The other party didn't say anything?"
"No." Wu Shen shook his head. It was Yukino who took the initiative to call me by name.
"Hahaha, I really admire you. But Yukinoshita didn't correct her title, which shows that she really cares about you. I'm becoming more and more curious about you." Hiratsuka Shizuka laughed heartily a few times.
"Hiratsuka-sensei, please look like a teacher." Several black lines appeared on Wu Shen's forehead. Fortunately, there is no one else in the office except Shizuka Hiratsuka. Otherwise, he felt that he would definitely be baptized by the vision of many teachers.
"Don't worry about the details. The teacher-student relationship should not be tied to trivial matters." Shizuka Hiratsuka exhaled a cloud of smoke and put out her cigarette in the ashtray.
"Yukinoshita is actually a girl with a very strange personality. If you can get into her heart, give her more support and help. You finished?"
"What kind of request is this?" Wu Shen sighed, but feeling Hiratsuka Shizuka's gaze, whether he understood the meaning of this commission or not, Wu Shen finally nodded.
"As a man, you can't not keep your word, right?" Shizuka Hiratsuka stood up and carelessly patted Wu Shen on the shoulder, "Okay, sensei's lecture is over, go do what you should do"
Leaving Shizuka's office, Wu Shen was happy that she didn't chase him and asked about the two skipping classes together. He was sure that Hiratsuka had definitely discovered some clues, but she didn't say anything explicitly. Instead, he asked her to pay more attention to Yukino's situation. Wu Shen had to admit that this was actually a very good teacher.
And just when Wu Shen was about to go to the club, the door of another office opened at the same time and Yukino walked out.
"Yukino, are you coming to the office too?" Wu Shen sometimes doubted whether he and Yukino were truly destined. There are many such chance encounters.
"Well, since top students rarely miss classes in the morning, the principal asked me to speak to her after class."
"Didn't you say you wanted to contact your parents?" Wu Shen asked worriedly. He probably had a vague understanding of Yukino's life experience. Tutors from famous families were generally not strict.
"Don't worry, I just lectured for a while. And Saito-san is fine."
Being able to get Yukino's "ok" rating proves that he is a teacher worthy of recognition in Yukino's eyes.
"Compared to that, what are you doing in the office?" Yukino obviously also deduced that Wu Shen came to the office. After all, if there is nothing wrong, there are usually no students in the office area.
"Just like you, I came to Hiratsuka-sensei to tell him about my absence from class in the morning." The two entered the club's activity room while chatting.
Yukino was still sitting on the chair by the window, taking the library book out of her backpack and placing it on the table. Then, she starts making tea using the utensils placed in the activity room.
Wu Shen also sat next to the chair near the door as usual. There was usually no sign of anyone coming to the service department. With nothing to do, he was about to find something to kill time, when Yukino suddenly walked over and handed him a disposable paper cup filled with tea.
"Thanks." Wu Shen was stunned for a moment, then immediately reached out and picked up the cup. In his impression, Yukino usually prepared and drank it for himself, so why did he suddenly have his share today?
And he remembered that Yukino used to make black tea, but today it was a rare choice to make green tea.
But Wu Shen didn't pay much attention. Normally he just didn't ask. If he asked, Yukino definitely wouldn't mind giving him some tea.
Wu Shen was a little thirsty, so he took a sip and put it down, wondering if he should do his homework now.
"How does it taste?" Yukino's ethereal and cold voice suddenly came.
"Ah... not bad. Yukino, you're quite skilled at making tea." Wu Shen was taken aback by the sudden question, but he quickly recovered and responded.
"That is good." After receiving a satisfactory answer, Yukino returned to her seat and continued reading the book as if nothing was wrong.
But this series of things, combined with what Mai said before, made Wu Shen very worried.
What happened to Yukino today? Was that really what Mai said? But what about the opportunity? Wu Shen doesn't believe he has the charm to make people fall in love with him at first sight.
Wu Shen always felt like he had forgotten some important details. As long as he could figure this out, all mysteries would be revealed.
"Yu…" Just when Wu Shen was about to test Yukino first, he only heard a "loud" knock on the door.
Knock~ Knock~ Knock~
"Hey, is there anyone from the service department?" Wu Shen was a little surprised. It's been almost a week since he joined the service club, and this is the first time he's seen anyone other than himself and Yukino appear.
"Please come in, the door is unlocked." Yukino put down the book and said calmly.
"This is a service department that can help other people solve their problems... Huh? Wu Shen? Yukinoshita-san?"
After Yukino responded, the door was quickly opened by someone outside. At first her voice sounded shy and she seemed reluctant to face strangers, but when she shifted her gaze towards the interior of the activity room, her tone instantly changed to one of surprise.
Wu Shen looked at the door and then realized that the person who entered the door was Aoyama Nanami, who worked together with him at the supermarket.
If I remember correctly, she seemed to be from the same school as me.
