My anime/manga fandom can't be that lazy.

Honestly, if Dongfang Bai had actually proposed to her directly just now, she wouldn't know how to answer...

"Idiot, you already gave me a better birthday present."

Yamada Elf rolled her eyes, put her hands on her hips, and sighed. She hadn't expected it to just be a birthday celebration. She had clearly been overthinking things.

"That……"

Before Dongfang Bai could answer, she suddenly grabbed the small box and carefully took off the necklace, as if afraid he would change his mind.

"However, if you insist on celebrating my birthday, then I'll mercifully accept it~"

Joy made the fairy's eyes crinkle into slits with laughter, and for some reason, the three people beside her breathed a sigh of relief. But how did Dongfang Bai know the fairy's birthday?

"Mr. Chris told me," Dongfang Bai replied immediately, seemingly noticing their confusion.

"I knew it." Yamada Elf covered her head with one hand. It was all her stupid brother's fault. She had been so excited that her heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was going to jump out of her chest.

"Seriously, let's go back to sleep..." Ruri Gokou suddenly felt a little tired. What the hell was the point of being forced to follow along all this way?

"What a wasted trip..."

Chapter Four: I hope everyone is alright. [Please subscribe automatically]

After returning from the fairy's deserted island, Dongfang Bai immediately began his academy life. After a few lazy days of vacation, he was still a little out of sorts and yawned several times during class.

There was nothing he could do; he had too much fun on the deserted island the other day and didn't even get to work. If it were yesterday at this time, he'd still be lying in bed right now.

Whoosh!

A piece of chalk suddenly shot from the podium. Dongfang Bai didn't even glance at it, but caught it with his hand. The teacher with long, cherry-blossom-colored hair on the podium, with a serious and indifferent face, said, "Dongfang, what is the answer to this question...?"

"It's zero."

"Very good, pay more attention in class."

Kirisu Mafuyu frowned slightly. This guy was alright last year, at least he was relatively attentive in his own class. This year, he's even too lazy to listen to his own class. He just stares blankly or daydreams during class.

The problem is that every time I ask him a question, he can answer it correctly, so I have no way to get answers out of him.

"Bai-kun, how could you know the answer without even listening to the lecture...?"

Sitting to the side, Fumino Furuhashi couldn't help but ask out of curiosity. She had seen this situation many times before. Dongfang Bailian was always looking out the window, so how could he possibly know what the teacher was saying?

"Oh, I knew that just by glancing at the question."

"Huh??" Fumino Furuhashi was taken aback. What did that mean?

Whoosh! Snap!

A white piece of chalk struck Fumino Furuhashi precisely on the forehead. On the stage, Mafuyu Kirisu, her face dark, said softly, "Fumino-kun, please answer this question."

"what?!"

Fumino Furuhashi had a pained look on her face. How did she end up being called on by Kirisu-sensei to answer a question? Unfortunately, she couldn't understand the question on the blackboard at all, so she could only look to Dongfang Bai for help.

"Ok?"

Just as Dongfang Bai was about to help her, he noticed that Kirisu Mafuyu on the stage had a dark expression on her face and glanced at him. The dark aura around her seemed to solidify, causing fine sweat to break out on Dongfang Bai's forehead.

Sorry, Fumino, you'd better pray for yourself.

"Waaah..."

When Fumino saw Dongfang Bai's expression change and he immediately turn away, she immediately understood that it was because Kirisu-sensei had intimidated him, making him afraid to help her.

Ruined.

“Guqiao, you can’t even do this kind of question and you still dare to chat down there? Come to my office later.”

Upon hearing Kirisu Mafuyu's words, Furuhashi Fumino sat down with a pale face. If she had known it would turn out like this, she would never have asked Dongfang Bai out of curiosity.

Curiosity really killed the cat.

At the end of the school term, Fumino Furuhashi was called to the office by Mafuyu Kirisu. She looked utterly miserable, on the verge of tears, but Dongfang Bai was powerless to help and could only mourn for her in his heart.

"Alright, I'm leaving now, Hui."

"Did Bai Jun go back so soon today?"

Kato Megumi was taken aback. Usually, Dongfang Bai would visit the Light Music Club, at least to have a cup of tea and some dessert. Today, however, he unusually instinctively went home.

"Well, I have something to do today."

Dongfang Bai reached out and scratched his cheek. Just as he was about to send a message to Akiyama Mio and the others, Hirasawa Yui had already sent a message.

[Shiro-chan! Tsumugi brought a delicious honey yuzu cake today! Hurry up and yours will be eaten by Sawa!]

Honey grapefruit cake...!?

Dongfang Bai was taken aback. Why at this particular time?

He stood there hesitating for a few seconds, then sighed, sent a message, and left the school with a dark expression.

……

Has Senior Dongfang replied?

Nakano Azusa, with her twin ponytails, peeked over, while Hirasawa Yui opened the message from Dongfang Bai and read it slowly and deliberately: "I'm not coming today..."

"How strange, Bai Sang isn't coming to eat cake." Tian Zhongli was a little surprised. Dongfang Bai, who usually would come over for a cup of tea no matter what, had chosen not to come today.

"It must be something very important, Yui. Did Shiro-kun say what it is?" Akiyama Mio put down her teacup and asked. At that moment, Hirasawa Yui stared blankly at her phone screen.

He said he had to go to a parent-teacher conference.

"……what?"

……

"I feel so bad that I didn't get to eat the cake. I'll go get some later to make up for it."

Dongfang Bai was carrying a bag. Luckily, she wasn't wearing her school uniform today, but rather a decent casual outfit; otherwise, it would have been quite embarrassing to attend the parent-teacher conference later.

The reason he had to attend the parent-teacher conference was mainly because Kanna was now in his 'cousin' situation, and no one else in the Dongfang family could attend the parent-teacher conference for Kanna, so only he could go.

Because the teacher emphasized that only family members could go.

"Come to think of it, I've never even been to Teitan Elementary School..."

As Dongfang Bai muttered to himself, walking down the street, a small white dog suddenly darted out from around the corner, carrying a pale yellow pineapple bun in its mouth. How familiar this scene was!

The man and the dog exchanged a glance, seemingly understanding each other's thoughts, and then turned their heads to walk in their respective directions.

I hope Sataniya is alright.

It took Dongfang Bai about twenty minutes to get to Teitan Elementary School. Since the parent-teacher meeting at Teitan Elementary School didn't officially start until 4 p.m., Dongfang Bai arrived just in time, with only about twenty minutes left before it officially started.

"There are quite a lot of people..."

Dongfang Bai sighed, noticing that quite a few parents were heading into the school, mostly mothers attending parent-teacher conferences. He figured he was the only exception...

"Hmm? A black cat!"

Dongfang Bai suddenly called out softly into the distance, and the long-haired woman in front of him immediately turned around. It was Gokou Ruri. Since she was here, she must also be here for the parent-teacher conference, right?

4.8

"Senior Dongfang...?"

"Are you here for a parent-teacher conference too?" Dongfang Bai was a little amused and exasperated. She hadn't expected that there would be someone else like her. She must also be here for Hinata's parent-teacher conference.

"Yes, I'm here for Hinata's parent-teacher conference because my parents are always working and usually don't get back until around 11 p.m., so I'm always the one who comes to the parent-teacher conference."

"You've really had a hard time..."

Dongfang Bai smiled slightly. Wugeng Liuli was only sixteen years old and was already a virtuous wife and loving mother. With her parents gone, she, as the eldest sister, was responsible for all the affairs at home.

"Let's go in together. I'm also here to help Kanna with her parent-teacher conference."

"Is it the same for you, senior?"

[PS: I've gotten addicted to playing 300 games lately...]

Chapter Five: Seize the Opportunity! [Please Subscribe Automatically]

Ruri Gokou was wearing a gray coat and a black skirt today. She was quite proper in public and usually wore her school uniform at school. After all, it was impossible to wear the 'Dark Cloth' at school, right?

"I never expected that Senior Dongfang would come to the parent-teacher conference. What's more, Kanna and Hinata are in the same class."

"That's good, at least we can look out for each other."

As Dongfang Bai and Wugeng Liuli walked and talked, the parents who passed by looked at them with special eyes. Dongfang Bai was very familiar with this kind of look, as he often felt this kind of look from the landlady at the bottom of the slope and in the fruit shop.

"Oh my, these two kids are so cute, they must still be high school students, right?"

"Are they here for a parent-teacher conference too? They look like siblings~ It's so harmonious."

"Yeah, my two kids fight every day. If only I could be half as well-behaved as those two."

You can see parents passing by the school from time to time, and usually it is the mothers who come to the parent-teacher conference. As the saying goes, even an older woman can talk to you for an hour, so three older women would be even more incredible.

"Waaah..."

Ruri Gokou blushed, probably because she wasn't wearing the 'Black Cloth' today, so she was a little concerned about the stares from those around her, whereas she could remain calm and composed even when wearing those chuunibyou-ish clothes in Akihabara.

"You'll get used to it; the older women are all quite kind."

Seeing Gokou Ruri's expression reminded Dongfang Bai of his own past, and he sighed, recalling how he had been approached by a group of unfamiliar middle-aged women who tried to engage him in casual conversation, and yet he had actually managed to keep the conversation going...

Could it be that I have the potential to be a stay-at-home husband?

"Let me see, it's Class 5-B. Kanna and Hinata are in this class, right?"

Dongfang Bai glanced at the classroom number and remembered Kanna's classroom, while Gokou Ruri nodded beside him and said, "That's right, it should be here."

The two exchanged a glance and went straight in. They immediately saw Kanna in the classroom and a long row of parents standing at the back. This was what Japan called a 'teaching visit'.
