T/N: First 1 star review for this story. I hope that loser sucks my d!ck haha. Anyway, I dont delete reviews which is probably why this story's review section is so mixed. Thanks everyone for the reviews thus far. And if you're enjoying the story, please drop a review! I don't mind honesty.

—————

Kushida's ability to so forwardly ask Ying Ye made Karuizawa standing beside her feel a little jealous.

She didn't want Kushida Kikyo to be able to have such a good relationship with him.

It seemed that he didn't mind that Kei had come over, but he had rejected her when she had asked to be his girlfriend.

But what could she do?

Now, she could only hope that the unruly boy would accept the invitation, and then she would find some excuse to study alone with him during the study session.

'It doesn't seem like he'll need to join the study session though.'

Karuizawa Kei thought back to their shared time together when Ying Ye Zhenshi had asked her to look for other students with good grades in class to study with when he was out of the wards.

Now she could confirm that Ying Ye Zhenshi was on top of his studies as he had seemed to be during those days.

Anyway, since Kushida had already started the conversation with Ying Ye, it wouldn't be unnatural for Kei to join in.

"I really didn't expect that you would be so on top of your studies. So then, can I come to you next time if I have any questions about the lesson?"

Karuizawa took the opportunity to ask what she wished inside in front of her classmates, as Ying Ye Zhenshi looked over at her unexpectedly.

All of a sudden, she seemed to be on the same level as Kushida.

And this happy scene made Ike grit his teeth beside the group.

Putting aside the nasty, hot bitch, he just wanted Ying Ye to leave his goddess Kushida Kikyo alone.

He so wished he could chop off the arm Kushida had touched of Ying Ye's earlier.

Now that someone else had been sent an invitation, he hoped that the boy in question would directly refuse.

'Ah, I didn't expect things to be like this.'

Hirata Yosuke took advantage of the situation.

It seemed he also knew how to take advantage of the cute girls around him.

Besides, it wasn't as though he was truly taking advantage of them since both Kushida and Karuizawa were obviously interested in Ying Ye.

If they could get closer to him, Ying Ye Zhenshi might have a more amicable relationship with his classmates in the future.

If his thoughts were actualised, the class atmosphere would definitely get better.

"If possible, can you help identify some of the more important content to revise, as well as some revision methods and the like that you might use? It seems that you have a lot of experience in self-studying Ying Ye-kun, so if it is possible, it would really help a lot... You are still welcome to join us at the study session too. You see that Kushida-san and Karuizawa-san would both like to have you there."

Mother Hen Hirata's heart was poured into his request as he pleaded for the entire class.

If things went successfully now, and if he managed to reintegrate Sudou Ken into the class as well as establish communication with Kouenji, then the atmosphere in the class would gradually become perfect.

Fantasy was beautiful, however, the reality was cruel, and Hirata received an answer that he obviously didn't want to hear.

"Let's talk about it when we have the chance some other time. For now, forget it. Being around idiots for too long will make one stupid. I would advise that you don't do so either, Hirata-san, for your own good."

Ying Ye Zhenshi refused, reminding Hirata to keep away from the idiot trio, before choosing to leave.

In such a situation, Hirata Yosuke was a little at a loss as to what to say.

"What?! Who is he calling an idiot? Hirata, if you even think about inviting him to the session, we will not be participating in it anymore."

In front of Ying Ye Zhenshi, Ike and Yamauchi did not say anything, but after he had left, they spoke pompously.

Indeed, if Ying Ye Zhenshi had joined, and even if they weren't allowed to quit, they would have run away and quit without informing the others.

They had already developed a psychological shadow of this devious classmate of theirs.

They didn't want to get into as miserable a situation as Sudou had found himself earlier that day.

They were also worried that their secrets would be exposed by this menace.

Hirata Yosuke looked at the both of them while a headache started to come on, as he thought that there was still a long way to go before he could realise his fantasy.

"You don't have to be so hostile to Ying Ye-kun. Everyone here is a classmate."

He wanted to make peace between the two groups, but given the individual they were talking about, it was pretty obvious that Ike and his ilk would not accept Hirata's attempts at making peace with Ying Ye.

"Hirata-san, since Ying Ye has already said so, you shouldn't worry about his grades anymore. You should just start the study group without him for now."

Having noticed the strange atmosphere, Kushida Kikyo next to him spoke frankly. If things continued like this, their hard-earned efforts in bringing Ike and Yamauchi to the study group may vanish too.

"Yes, yes, I understand."

Hirata came back to his senses and wooed the boys to walk with him.

On the other hand, Karuizawa was left quite angry and very upset at these two idiots who were indeed as much the scum she thought they were.

She wished to get rid of them as soon as possible, otherwise, they would make her stupid just being around them.

'I don't want to be around stupid!'

Karuizawa thought in her cute little head that she had indirectly been told by Ying Ye Zhenshi that she didn't need to be around the idiots.

Doing so would directly deplete every last brain cell in her head.

So, she looked somewhat resentfully at the boy who was already heading for the library with the pack.

"Karuizawa-san, what's the matter?"

Hirata felt a chill course down his spine as he felt a gaze on his back, making him turn his head to take a look.

He found Karuizawa was staring at him.

"It's nothing. I'll come with you."

Karuizawa also reacted and fixed her expression, before walking forward.

Looking at Yosuke Hirata, she always felt that this boy was actually very strange.

Although he was a very sunny and kind individual, she always felt he was unconfident and somewhat vulnerable when he was facing other people, where he should have been confident and emotionally stable.

These were necessary qualities of a leader, as Hirata seemed to be hailed as, which he had to have in order to successfully control the class.

If he was tough inside, when there was another issue with Sudo, or related to Ike Kanji and Yamauchi Haruki, he would easily be able to thwart their idiocy.

It seemed that after making contact with Ying Ye Zhenshi, Karuizawa had also allowed her violent side to come out.

But for now, the situation was fine, and she thought that the study session would go on to run successfully.

There were only a few eccentric students who were quite good at studying but didn't want to join, and there was also the 'smart', dung-head Sudou who didn't join.

Besides them, everyone that should have been there was present.

And on Sudou's end, he also happened to encounter some troubles after having left the classroom after school to participate in his club.

He had been in a hurry to get to training, planning to put in a lot of sweat into today's training to show his value, but this idea of his

was over before it could even be implemented.

In a side room of the school, designated for the basketball club.

As soon as he arrived at the basketball club, Sudou had been called to follow one of his senpais and managers of the club to this room.

And in this room, his senpai, who had been the one most optimistic about him since the beginning, told him that he should immediately leave the basketball club.

Sudou Ken couldn't help roaring out his frustrations—

"Senpai, why?!"
