Tuesday, October 4th.

Today was another uneventful day.

"Alright, the blessing is now complete."

Dongfang Chen loosened Nishimiya Shoko's ears; this was the third time he had treated her ears.

After the first two treatments, she has clearly noticed the changes in her hearing and can hear many sounds even without hearing aids.

Especially after this incident, she was able to hear her classmates' conversations, although not very clearly, but she could definitely hear them!

"Dong, Dongfang, thank you..."

She has also realized that these changes are thanks to Dongfang Chen's so-called blessing.

"You know it yourself, there's no need to say it out loud. I'll send you a few more blessings these next few days, and you should be almost better."

He extended two fingers and placed them on her pink lips.

Nishimiya Shoko paused for a moment, her face quickly flushing red. She leaned back slightly and then bowed deeply to him: "Thank you!"

Her exaggerated actions instantly attracted the attention of the other students, who all turned their gazes toward them.

"What catches your eyes?"

Dongfang Chen scanned the classroom expressionlessly.

Thanks to his less-than-stellar reputation and behavior, coupled with his cold tone, the students quickly averted their attention.

Nishimiya Shoko looked up and around, then said somewhat awkwardly to him, "I'm...I'm sorry..."

"It's nothing." He smiled and shook his head.

"The atmosphere in the classroom feels a bit strange. Did something just happen?"

Nakano Satsuki, who had just returned from using the restroom, walked up to the two of them and asked.

He replied casually, "Nothing's wrong."

"Okay, okay."

She didn't think much of it.

Then, somewhat hesitantly, she asked, "Hey, Dongfang-kun, do you have time this afternoon? I'd like to ask you to help me with some of my previous lessons, could you? The monthly exam is next week, but I really don't have much confidence, so..."

Seeing Nakano Satsuki's blushing face, filled with both anticipation and shyness, Dongfang Chen swallowed hard. Is this how you test me?

He pretended to ponder for a moment, and finally nodded slightly: "Emm, I can tutor you for up to an hour!"

383 hours isn't a long time.

"That's great, thank you Dongfang-jun! If I get good results in this monthly exam, I'll definitely treat you to a big meal."

Nakano Satsuki happily held his hand.

"Well, whether it's a big meal or not doesn't really matter."

He wasn't interested in that so-called feast; he thought it might not even taste as good as a meal he cooked himself.

Nishimiya Shoko, standing beside them, looked at the two still holding hands, her pupils dimming slightly, but she still managed a forced smile.

She has few friends, or even none at all.

It was rare that she met Dongfang Chen and Zhongye Wuyue after coming to this school this year. Unlike other students, they did not distance themselves from her after the novelty wore off.

Nakano Satsuki: "If Higashikata-kun tutors me, I definitely have to repay him properly, right?"

"Whatever you want. But don't blame me if the tutoring doesn't work!"

"No, with Dongfang Jun tutoring me, I'll definitely get great results."

"That's settled then, shall we start this afternoon?"

"Yes, please. There are quite a few topics I don't know how to cover before, so if I start earlier, I can learn more."

"Okay, got it."

The two had agreed on what to do, and just then, the school bell rang...

Chapter 73 A man is most handsome when he's serious!

After school, Dongfang Chen and Zhongye Wuyue planned to go to a public library near the school together.

If you're going to get tutoring, you'll naturally need a better environment.

After leaving the classroom, Dongfang Chen and Nakano May walked along the school road. Dongfang Chen asked, "Nakano, which subject are you good at right now?"

"Huh!? Shouldn't you be asking about the subjects you're weak in?" Nakano Satsuki asked, puzzled.

"Compared to improving your weak subjects from scratch in a short period of time, I feel it's easier to improve your strong subjects first."

Dongfang Chen knew that at this time, Nakano May's highest score in her strongest subject was only around 30 points.

It's far more efficient to prioritize improving her strong subjects than to spend a lot of time tutoring her in her weaker subjects from scratch.

People are more likely to perform exceptionally well in their areas of expertise.

"I see. Well then, let's start with the sciences. I'm quite confident in my science skills!"

She nodded understandingly, then said confidently.

"Okay, I'll review the textbook with you first, and then I'll give you some basic questions to try and see how you are now."

"Mmm, Dongfang is really reliable!"

As the two walked out of the school gate together, neither of them noticed that two pairs of eyes were fixed on them.

"That was in May, right? She just texted us saying she had something to do and we didn't need to wait for her. Was it because of the man she was with?"

Nakano Miku watched the receding figure and said calmly.

Nino Nakano, who was standing next to her, nodded.

"It's probably true. Judging from how they're chatting and laughing, they seem to have a good relationship. But we've only been at this school for less than a month, and we're already being targeted in May?"

As the older sister, I can't just stand by and do nothing. If that guy is a jerk, May will be in danger! Miku, let's go after him and see."

Nakano Miku tilted her head slightly and said, "But, wouldn't it be a bad idea for us to follow them?"

"Now is not the time to talk about this. Let's hurry and catch up, they've already gone far ahead!"

With that, Nino Nakano grabbed Miku Nakano's hand and chased after them.

……

Inside the public library.

Dongfang Chen and Zhongye Wuyue found a quiet corner to sit down. Then, Zhongye Wuyue took out her textbook and started talking about the parts she hadn't understood in class...

In a corner not far from them, Nakano Nino and Nakano Miku hid behind a bookshelf, secretly observing the two's every move.

"Isn't this a date? Why are you taking out your textbooks?" Nino Nakano asked, puzzled.

Miku Nakano retorted, "That's just your own guess. May never said she was going on a date, right? Maybe that guy was just tutoring May?"

“Anyway, I don’t believe it. That boy definitely had ill intentions when he approached May,” Nakano Nino said with certainty.

She is quite clear about the basic conditions of her sisters, and it's no problem for her to call herself a beautiful girl.

In their previous schools, there were quite a few boys who were attracted to their looks and confessed their feelings to them, although none of them succeeded.

Of course, Nino Nakano does not object to her sisters dating.

However, as the second oldest in the family, her sisters would definitely have to get past her first if they wanted to date!

Just to protect my sisters and prevent them from being scammed.

Miku Nakano: "You'll find out soon enough."

Nino Nakano: "I'll send a message to Ichika and Yotsuba."

So the two sisters hid behind the bookshelf, observing Dongfang Chen and Zhongye Wuyue's every move.

As for Dongfang Chen and Nakano May, it took Dongfang Chen nearly twenty minutes to basically figure out Nakano May's learning level.

"Your foundation is a bit weak, but that also means you have a lot of room for improvement. I'll prioritize tutoring you on topics that are easy to get tested on, such as elementary functions and solid geometry in math; basic formulas in physics; and basic principles of chemistry, etc..."

Since he was going to make up for it, Dongfang Chen would naturally explain it to Nakano Satsuki seriously. As for whether she could understand it, he could only say that he would do his best.

As Nakano Satsuki listened to Dongfang Chen's simple tutoring plan, she felt that she had found the right person.

Unconsciously, he looked at Dongfang Chen's serious and handsome face and couldn't help but fall into a brief daze.

A man is most handsome when he's serious!

"Boom!"

Dongfang Chen raised his hand and tapped her forehead: "Although I know I'm handsome, we're having a remedial lesson right now, so please pay attention, Nakano-kun."

"Um, sorry~"

Coming to her senses, Nakano Satsuki blushed, turned around, patted her cheeks, took two deep breaths, and then turned back: "Teacher Higashikata, please take care of me!"

"Okay, let's start with elementary functions, beginning with the basic concepts of functions..."

The tutoring session lasted another half hour. After Nakano May finished the basic questions that Dongfang Chen had given her, he checked and corrected her mistakes, and that was the end of today's tutoring session.

"Alright, keep up the good work, and there's still hope that you can at least get a passing grade in math on the monthly exam."
