Let's do it again, Yukino.

Only then did I realize that I might have inadvertently said some things I shouldn't have while drunk, and I wanted to slap myself hard.

Having figured everything out, he had no other choice but to let Yukino-sensei hug him like this, as if giving him warmth.

This is one of the reasons why Haruhi refused to tell Koyuki about her childhood in her previous life.

Women's terrifying maternal instincts are evident even in Yukino-sensei.

If Xiaoxue finds out,

That would have nearly killed me.

Under the cover of night, the boy enjoyed Yukino-sensei's embrace with a bittersweet feeling, muttering a complaint as he did so.

(P.S.: Here's the first update of the day on time. Please recommend, favorite, and share! A new week has begun, thank you so much.)

PS2: This chapter mainly reveals the male protagonist's childhood in his previous life. If anyone dislikes this chapter because of the male protagonist's personality, you can skip it.

Chapter Thirty-Six: If I don't explain, what do you want?

Sitting in her seat, Chunri was scratching her head, staring at the physics test she had just finished. Many of the answers she had filled in were quite different from the correct ones. She gasped, and her glasses on the bridge of her nose shone with an indescribable light.

"As expected, physics and chemistry have always been my weak points."

Universal gravitation, Ampere, magnetic field, molecular force, nuclear force

Newton's first law, second law, third law, and that damn conservation of momentum...

The dense array of theorems and formulas presented to Chunri left her speechless for a long time. She then pounded her head on the test paper on her desk, as if she had gone mad from studying, chuckling to herself and muttering to herself.

Hahaha, hahaha, waaaaaaah, it's so hard to remember...

"Physics, oh my god, I need to find some time to get Xiaoxue to give me a proper tutoring."

Just as Chunri was wondering whether he should ask Xiaoxue to give him a good crash course that night, he saw the class monitor, Asakura Ryoko, who rarely interacted with him, walking towards him in the classroom.

"Could I bother you for a moment, Kasuga-kun?"

Class monitor Ryoko Asakura was holding an exercise book and stood quietly beside him.

"What's wrong? Tell me."

Hearing someone call his name, Chunri, who had stopped his irritable behavior, fell silent, lowered his glasses, and, imitating the old man on television, sized up the figure in front of him. He put down what he was doing.

Springtime silently observed the female class monitor, whose personality was fairly good, and asked, half-jokingly.

"Did some guy dump you? Do you need me to teach him a lesson?"

"That's not true at all. Besides, would a girl tell you such private things, Kasuga-kun?"

Asakura placed the workbook on Haruhi's desk, put his hands on his hips, and looked at the boy with a somewhat helpless expression.

"Kasuga-kun, it's commendable that you submit your homework on time for all subjects, but it seems you submitted the wrong English homework. You were teaching the Japanese homework assigned by Hiratsuka-sensei."

"Was there Chinese homework yesterday?"

Chunri doesn't seem to have any recollection of these things; these days, he completes his daily homework on time.

Although that amount of homework didn't take him very long.

However, Asakura is wrong, isn't she? Yesterday's spring diary clearly didn't mention Hiratsuka-sensei's Japanese literature class.

"Huh? Didn't Hiratsuka-sensei write the instructions on the blackboard? Didn't you see them?"

Oh, right, I remember now, I was knocked unconscious by Hiratsuka Shizuka's Bajiquan, and I missed all my afternoon classes.

Thinking of this, Chunri slapped her forehead and understood the reason.

"Ah, I remember I was lying in the infirmary around this time yesterday. I don't really remember it happening, and no one reminded me."

The only people in the entire class he could talk to were Nagato and the class monitor who occasionally reminded him of the materials and homework.

"Here's what we'll do: go and explain to Mr. Hiratsuka that I've already submitted the other students' assignments. We'll find some time later to finish the Japanese assignments, and then I'll submit them for you."

"I'll go now."

Nodding and not rejecting Asakura's suggestion, Kasuga put down the physics test papers that would give anyone else a headache, stretched lazily in her seat, and prepared to stand up and leave through the back door of the classroom.

"Um, if you really don't understand something in physics, you can ask Nagato, or you can ask me."

Ryoko Asakura, standing behind him, watched Haruhi leave, hesitated for a moment, and then added a sentence.

Recently, the boy has been much more well-behaved in class, especially after he started wearing those glasses. He can often be seen sitting alone in his corner of the classroom, writing something incessantly.

"No need, but thank you anyway."

Faced with the class monitor's kindness, Chunri gently waved her hand, feeling very touched, so she chose to refuse without hesitation.

Kasuga felt it was best not to enter into these completely unnecessary side quests that focused on increasing affection levels.

In his past life, he remembered that Asakura and Nagato should have ended up getting into the same university.

As for the name of the university, so much time has passed that he can't quite remember it.

……

…………

What a coincidence!

Haruhi watched as Koyuki emerged from Hiratsuka Shizuka's office. The girl, oblivious to Haruhi's presence, frowned and head bowed as she walked straight towards the Service Club.

Haruhi glanced around, and to make sure no one was watching, he completely forgot he had originally intended to find Hiratsuka Shizuka. A rather wicked smile crept across his lips as he watched Koyuki's departing figure. He tucked his glasses into his shirt and ran off in the opposite direction.

His speed is now three times that of before, hmm.

In just one minute, Haruhi was already squatting in the empty classroom that Koyuki would definitely pass by on her way back to the Service Club.

The moment he saw the girl pass by the classroom door, he, panting like a dog from the short burst of running, clutched his chest and without hesitation pulled the girl, who was still walking with her head down, back into the classroom.

Finally, the gate was closed.

…………

Snapped! !

The girl, who had only just regained her senses, easily knocked out Haruhi, who was panting and had a somewhat lewd expression, in the empty classroom with a single Aikido strike.

He reached out and grabbed the leg of a desk, then turned to look at Xiaoxue, a slender and frail girl who seemed frightened by his earlier actions. Yet, she once again performed an Aikido starting stance that Haruhi found incredibly unsettling.

"Please don't come any closer!!!!"

With a mournful face, Chunri, clutching the table, shook his head fiercely at Yukinoshita, who was walking towards him.

"It's me, Chunri. Xiaoxue, I just noticed you didn't look too well and wanted to give you a surprise."

He rolled over and sat up from the ground, as if remembering something. Seeing Xiaoxue about to continue attacking him, he immediately put his glasses back on, reverting to his scholarly demeanor. Pointing to his face, he said somewhat awkwardly to Xiaoxue...

I was injured yesterday, and if I get injured again, I really can forget about going out to find a job tonight.

"I think it's more of a shock than a surprise."

Xiaoxue lowered her hand, looked at Chunri with some displeasure, and said coldly.

Seeing that Xiaoxue was a little unhappy, Chunri stopped playing the victim and stood up from the ground.

"Um, are you in some kind of trouble? If you need my help, I'll be happy to assist you."

Xiaoxue glanced at the door that Chunri had locked from the inside, then stood there with her hands on her hips, seemingly having thought of something, and shook her head with amusement.

"It's not a troublesome matter."

"Totsuka, a student in Yui's class, asked me to improve his tennis skills, so I just borrowed the tennis court from Mr. Hiratsuka temporarily."

Upon hearing a rare surname from Xiaoxue, Chunri recalled some interesting things.

"Totsuka Saika, right? I think I vaguely remember her. I heard you mention her, Yuki, as one of the girls who was originally Hachiman's chosen wife, but because she didn't go to the same university as him, she ended up being dumped by Yui, right?"

"..."

For some reason, Xiaoxue, who was originally a bit aloof, suddenly turned her face away from Chunri and remained silent after hearing Chunri's question.

This inexplicably guilty expression made Chunri, who had been talking non-stop, seem to notice something was wrong.

He recalled the conversation he had just had and gasped.

"Um, wait a minute, Xiaoxue, you just used a really bad word, didn't you? Him? I remember at the class reunion, you kept telling me that Totsuka was a girl, and you kept telling me to stay away from her, didn't you?"

Is Totsuka Saika a man?

ex?

"..."

Yukinoshita remained with her back to the boy, no longer speaking, but the blush on her ears was spreading at a visible speed.

"Hey, explain yourself, hey, explain yourself. You're not hiding something from me again, are you?"

As Xiaoxue's initial assertiveness gradually weakened, Chunri seemed to have forgotten her earlier fear and burst out laughing triumphantly again, buzzing around the girl like a fly.

"Explain yourself, Yukinoshita! Tell me, why did you lie to me and say Totsuka was a girl? Hey, explain yourself! Give me a clear answer!!"

Snapped! !

A loud bang.

then,

The boy was struck hard by the enraged Yukino.

"What do you want if I don't explain?"

Bent over the snow, her slender waist concealing the spring scenery beneath her skirt, she coldly looked down at the boy lying on his back on the ground.

The atmosphere between the two was unusually tense in the empty classroom.

It's just a one-sided momentum.

Spring was the first to succumb.

"I was just asking, if you don't want to tell me, that's fine."

"Humph!"
