Hearing someone suddenly calling her, Qingyou looked in the direction of the voice and saw the pure and beautiful Gui Yanyue standing gracefully at the door of the classroom.
"Can you come here for a moment?" She gave the boy a dignified smile, "I have something to ask of you."
"understood."
After putting the books in order, Qingyou left his seat and walked towards the girl.
"Um..." Biting her lower lip with pearly teeth, Gui Yanyue hesitated, "Can we go to my activity room to talk? I..."
It seems like there is something hidden.
Qingyou pretended to understand and said, "Okay, let's go."
Gui Yanyue breathed a sigh of relief, bowed to him and said gratefully, "Thank you very much."
...
"Brother-in-law, you must help me!"
As soon as he arrived at the student council room, Qingyou was shocked by the girl's address.
"Student Gui Yan, what are you doing? Don't talk nonsense."
"But... you are not with my elder sister..." She blushed and spoke intermittently
Before she finished speaking, Qingyou already understood what she meant.
The corners of his mouth twitched, and he explained helplessly, "It was a show for the freshmen to see, just to block their bad peach blossoms."
Gui Yanyue pursed her lips, clearly not believing it, "There are other ways to act, there's no need..."
The rest of the words were not spoken, but everyone knew what she was talking about.
"So it was an accident." Qingyou patted his forehead and sighed, feeling very upset. "Anyway, there is really nothing between the young lady and me. Please don't think too much about it, classmate Guiyan."
Seeing that he had no intention of continuing the conversation, Gui Yanyue hesitated for a moment before slowly nodding, "Well... okay..."
"So, what exactly do you want to ask of me, Gui Yan?" Qingyou quickly got back to the point and asked simply and straightforwardly.
Gui Yanyue was stunned for a moment, then suddenly reacted and replied softly, "Well, it's like this, brother-in-law, I..."
"Ahem." Qingyou suddenly coughed and interrupted her.
Gui Yanyue understood instantly, and the redness on her face that had just faded appeared again, "No, sorry, Tadoda-kun..."
She stumbled as she apologized.
Qingyou waved her hand, signaling her to continue
Bending over to the boy, Gui Yanyue lifted her hair and said softly, "I'd like to ask Tada-kun to help me with my homework, is that okay?"
Qingyou was stunned, "Me?"
"Ah."
Gui Yanyue pinched the corner of her clothes, looking a little embarrassed, "Because the results of the recent small test were not ideal, my family members are very concerned about this kind of thing, so..."
After saying that, she turned her face away, her ears red, "No, is it not possible..."
The girl's tone was mixed with expectation and trepidation, coupled with her innocent and youthful appearance at this moment, it was really hard to refuse.
"This is not a question of whether it is possible or not." Qingyou frowned, "Can't you ask your sister to help you with your homework? Her learning ability and grades are almost the same as mine."
"My elder sister is too troublesome. She has to worry about the family's affairs all the time. It's hard to say whether she can have a normal rest." Thinking of something, the girl's dark green eyes became dim, and her tone began to become a little depressed. "I don't want to trouble her anymore."
Seeing her like this, Qingyou couldn't help but sigh.
I didn't expect that she cared so much about her sister. In the previous nine lives, I had never seen her care so much about anyone of the same sex.
The change before he turned dark is really huge.
He suppressed the turmoil in his mind and kept a calm face, "Since the eldest lady is not capable, you can also go to Senior Sister Hanyu. Aren't her grades also very good? She is always in the top ten in the grade. She should be more than capable of teaching you."
But no matter how much he has changed, the shadows of his previous lives have made him resistant to girls. If he has to be alone with them for a long time, he will feel uncomfortable.
"But Sister Lianyue is busy preparing for the college entrance examination." Gui Yanyue lowered her eyes, her voice getting lower and lower, "The support you applied for is the University of Tokyo, and how difficult it is. Tadoda-kun himself knows it, I don't really want to disturb..."
Kind, innocent, and considerate
These moments emerged from Qingyou's mind. Looking at the girl at this moment, he was a little dazed and began to search for fragments from his distant memories.
Was Gui Yanyue in her first life also kind and introverted before she turned evil?
There were too many intertwined fragments, and he could no longer remember clearly.
"Tada-kun..."
The girl's gentle voice brought him back to his senses. "If it's too much trouble, forget it. I can go find a teacher to help me."
"I'm so sorry to have disturbed you so much."
She clenched her hands tightly together, her bangs fell down to cover most of her face, and her back was against the sun, leaving a shadow. Her feeling of loss was obvious.
Qingyou pursed her lips and said nothing.
After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "Every day after lunch, I will tutor you for an hour, because that's the only time I'm free. If it doesn't work out, forget it."
Forget it, I'll help if I can. After all, those grudges are from the previous life. The girl has not turned evil in this life. She is still the innocent girl, and the eldest lady treats her as her own daughter.
It's reasonable to help.
"Really?!" Gui Yanyue raised her eyes to look at him, a smile of surprise blooming on her face. She couldn't hide her joy no matter how hard she tried, "Thank you, Tada-kun."
This cute and adorable look doesn't show the crazy and paranoid shadow of the past.
So, it’s just tutoring, nothing unexpected will happen...right?
"It's my duty. After all, we are classmates." He smiled politely and muttered to himself.
----
Time passed slowly, and soon it was time to go home from school in the afternoon.
"Then see you tomorrow, Lianyue."
"Well, see you tomorrow, Xinmei."
Waving goodbye to her good friend and watching him get in the car and leave, the gentle smile on Hanyu Reizuki's face slowly faded.
Looking up at the orange-yellow clouds floating in the sky, she exhaled gently.
[It's said that this girl is very cunning, and it's impossible for you to get her to say this.] The female voice in my heart sounded faintly, [Let's start with the boy. Whether they are lovers or not, why not just find a reason to ask.]
"Forget it, God, there's no need to ask."
[Um? ]
In response to the god's doubts, Hanyu Reizuki just smiled softly, "Because, I already know that Tada-kun and Kokomi are not that close yet."
"If you knew that, why did you go and test that girl today?" the god asked in confusion.
Hanyu Reizuki looked at the trees in the distance, her voice was soft, and the look in her eyes was like a cloud, making it hard to see clearly. "Maybe, there is some reluctance and envy..."
She was unwilling to let the boy she loved and admired be imprisoned by her in such a domineering manner, and she also envied her for being able to do whatever she wanted.
As for me, I can do nothing but look up at them humbly from the audience.
But think about it, the other party is far superior to his peers in terms of appearance, figure, and family background, and he does have the capital to be domineering and willful.
Covering her cheek with one hand, Hanyu Reizuki lowered her eyes. Under her beautiful long eyelashes, a flash of bitterness flashed in her amber eyes.
There is no comparison. The gap is so big that it makes her breathless.
How could I have the confidence to compete with such a perfect person for the shining boy?
She walked to a bench and sat down, thinking blankly
If one walks in the dark for a long time, he will get used to it.
The gloomy life of more than ten years has made her experience countless despairs. She thought that being able to live to see her brother go to college would be the end of her life, but the appearance of the boy gave her new hope.
The gray world was entered by him for the first time with kindness and tenderness, giving it bright colors.
As expected, she fell in love with this boy who seemed to be shining all over, and couldn't help falling into him. She couldn't get out of it anymore, and she didn't want to get out of it.
She really doesn't want to give up, she really doesn't want to give up at all
But what can I use to compare with Gui Yanxinmei, and what qualifications do I have to compare?
Thinking bitterly, the inferiority complex was like a needle piercing her heart, stirring her up so much that she was almost drowned by it.
It hurts, but there's nothing I can do.
The girl bent down, wrapped her arms around her bent knees, and buried her face in them. In the cold afterglow of the setting sun, only her lowered head was exposed.
The evening wind blew up her hair, making her petite figure look even thinner.
"You'll catch a cold if you sleep here, Hanyu-senpai."
My face suddenly felt cold, and an orange can of soda was pressed against my cheek.
Hanyu Reizuki raised her little head and looked, only to find that the young man was standing in front of her without her noticing.
The orange sunlight shines on the boy, making him look even more slender.
She was momentarily distracted
"Hmm? What are you daydreaming about again?" Qingyou came closer to look at her.
A breeze blew over, carrying a fresh fragrance. Hanyu Reizuki blinked and gradually came back to her senses.
"Why are you here, Tadoda-kun?" She put on a smile and asked in a soft voice pretending to be natural, "Shouldn't you have gone home by now?"
"Don't mention it. The principal asked me to stay here." Qingyou pouted and said unhappily, "He asked me to help him clean up some messes, and he has only just finished it now."
Hanyu Reizuki curved her eyebrows and smiled slightly, "This shows that the principal values you very much."
"Come on."
He snorted disdainfully, then handed her the orange juice in his hand, "By the way, this is for you, please drink it."
He stuffed the tea into the girl's hand quite "forcefully" to prevent her from refusing, and finally drank the oolong tea in his hand slowly, not forgetting to remind her.
"It's a bit cold, drink it slowly."
The coldness of her fingertips brought a tingling sensation like an electric current. It was very cold, but she did not let go. Instead, she squeezed it a little tighter.
Seeing that the pull ring had been opened by the boy, she leaned forward and took a sip.
"tasty?"
A young boy's voice came from above my head
Hanyu Reizuki held the drink and nodded, "It's quite sweet."
"That's good."
Compared to the girl's art, Qingyou seemed much more "generous" when drinking the beverage. She drank the beverage in the can, burped lightly, and then crushed it and threw it into the trash can next to her.
"Do you want to sit here and enjoy the cool breeze, Hanyu-senpai?" He sat down next to the girl and asked casually, "You didn't move just now. You must be thinking about something, right?"
The tone was calm, but anyone could hear the concern in it.
A soft look flashed across Hanyu Rei's eyes, and she admitted openly, "Yes, I'm worried about the exam."
Just a little lie.
"The college entrance examination?"
"Yeah." She held the tea tightly in both hands and looked up at the horizon. "Tohoku University is too difficult to get into. I don't know if I can get in with my grades."
After being covered by my palm for so long, the coldness on the aluminum alloy surface has faded a lot.
"There's nothing to worry about." The young man next to him said confidently, "With your grades, it won't be a piece of cake for her to get into the University of Tokyo."
Hanyu Reizuki didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I'm not as good as Tada-kun says."
"Don't be so modest, Hanyu-senpai."
Qingyou chuckled, his brows looking handsome and clean in the sunset, "You have a solid foundation and a smart mind. As long as you review well during this period, you can easily reach the admission score of the University of Tokyo."
Hanyu Reizuki curled her lips and said, "Do you think so highly of me?"
"Of course!"
"But...."
"Ok?"
