There are so many geniuses in crossover anime! What's wrong with adding me?

What is this for? It's really hard to guess... The parents didn't want to think about it too much.

"..."

"..."

Seeing Sakurakoji's talented appearance, Ogiso's parents fell silent, exchanged a glance, and then looked back at Ogiso Setsuna.

"Yukina, is this child really a boy?" The mother looked away awkwardly, asking softly with an unnatural smile.

"Really?! Do you think I can't tell the other person's gender?"

“But, right?” The mother looked at the father beside her.

“…Hmm.” The usually serious father’s expression also became somewhat unnatural, and he only gave a brief word of agreement.

“But this child is really good-looking, no wonder Takahiro…” She stopped herself at the right moment, then suggested to Setsuna, “His name is Sakurakoji-kun, right? Setsuna, why don’t you invite him over next time?”

"How did things get to this point? I never said I wanted to invite Sakurakoji-kun to my house." Ogiso Setsuna's expression was complicated.

"You've already exchanged contact information with him, so what's the big deal?" Kogiso's mother waved her hand in the air and smiled as she asked, "What's his full name?"

"Sakurakoji's talent..."

"Oh, it's Caihua Jun! What a nice name!"

"Why are you so satisfied?" Ogiso Setsuna couldn't help but think to herself as she looked at her mother.

"Do you know about his family situation?" The father seemed to value this point more.

“Well, although I don’t know much about him, his parents are currently living in New York for work. He and his sister returned to Tokyo two months ago, but it seems that for some reason, he and his sister don’t live together, but they see each other almost every day,” Ogiso Setsuna said carefully.

"Huh? He has a younger sister, does she look a lot like him? Sister! Please!" Xiaohong, standing next to him, clasped his hands together and pleaded.

"Shut up!" Setsuna Ogiso covered her forehead in exasperation, feeling heartbroken to have such a younger brother.

"There don't seem to be any problems with family relationships or economic conditions..." the father muttered softly, stroking his chin.

"And this child seems to have a lot of class and is very polite. If Setsuna wants to date him, Mom and Dad won't object, right, Dad?" the mother added softly from the side.

“That’s a different matter!” The father’s expression immediately turned solemn, and he replied in a deep voice.

"mom!"

Ogiso Setsuna stared at her mother with shame and anger, feeling utterly exhausted.

This night is far too long.

Volume 1: A Daily Life of Attracting Bees and Butterflies: Chapter 74 The Cat Cafe and an Unexpected Guest

The morning after singing karaoke with Setsuna Ogiso, Sakurakoji Sai woke up at the same time as usual. After breakfast, he sat in the chair in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, flipping through the latest financial and fashion magazines.

Although he doesn't participate in these things much anymore, he still practices them as a good way to pass the time, as a habit he has developed over the years.

Although he left work halfway through last night, he still spent a lot of time outside, and Fanxing's usual off-duty time wasn't very late, so he didn't wake up earlier than usual.

He took a sip of fragrant tea, thus beginning his wonderful morning.

When he didn't need to cultivate goodwill or make plans, he was quite relaxed, only occasionally glancing up at the maids busy inside.

Thinking of this, he asked the other person in the room, "Nanami, have the school procedures been completed?"

Aoyama Nanami has been working here for almost half a month. Although he said he would help her with the transfer procedures to Philia Academy, he didn't have time to do it himself. He just asked his younger sister and great-aunt—who are also about to enroll at Philia Academy—to help her.

He's been unusually busy these past few days, running around everywhere, and hasn't asked the two of them about this matter. Now that he's remembered, he might as well ask Aoyama Nanami.

Upon hearing his question, Aoyama Nanami, who had been meticulously wiping the corners of the furniture while lying on the floor, stopped, stood up, faced him, and cheerfully replied, "Yes! Miss Asuri and Miss Rumion have already resolved this matter for me, and I have received my acceptance letter. I am truly grateful!"

"That's good." Sakurakoji walked to the window and looked at the two buildings next door that were connected by a skybridge.

The buildings of Philia Academy and the Heavenly Residence are practically next to each other, just a five-minute walk away. As a result, many wealthy students choose to rent apartments in the newly opened Heavenly Residence, and many people have already moved in.

Aoyama Nanami walked to his side, her expression serene as she looked at the nearby buildings with him. She had only learned a few days ago that the renowned Philia Academy was actually so close to here, requiring virtually no commuting time. She was quite taken aback when she heard this.

"School's about to start, how are you feeling?" Sakurakoji asked with concern.

"I'm a little excited, but also a little nervous about not being able to keep up. After all, I joined the class midway through, and I don't know if I'll be able to keep up..." Aoyama Nanami's eyebrows furrowed slightly as she expressed her concerns.

Compared to students who enrolled there in their first year of high school, students like her who transferred there in their second year of high school will definitely have some academic shortcomings.

“That’s true, but I believe you’ll be fine.” Sakura Koji smiled. “After all, you’ve always been at the top of your class in regular subjects, and you’ve also trained hard in your professional courses by working part-time and attending extracurricular training. I think even if you’re a little behind, there shouldn’t be much of a difference, since the first year is basically all about foundational learning.”

"However, even so, Philia's class progress is indeed much faster than outside. I'll still talk to someone to help you prepare their three years' worth of textbooks and daily tasks. You can study on your own for the remaining two weeks."

"You're probably still taking those extracurricular training courses, right? If you have any questions, ask the teachers there first."

"Hey! The classes over there are still going on." Aoyama Nanami smiled and confirmed.

Although she had long since stopped attending the school where she had already completed her attendance, she had never given up on her professional courses outside of school.

"Um... thank you so much, young master Caihua, thank you for preparing so much for me." She looked a little shy, avoiding his gaze, and said embarrassedly while fiddling with her maid outfit.

Although she sometimes couldn't figure out what the young master was thinking, and was often bothered by his jokes, she was certain that Sakurakoji Sai was a good person.

And he's an incorrigible, wonderful person!

If that weren't the case, he wouldn't have helped her so much unconditionally just because he saw her in trouble, someone he'd only met a few times.

Although the jokes often made her blush, they never crossed her bottom line.

Although he was undoubtedly a young master from a wealthy family, he had none of the bad habits of a privileged child. He was always polite and courteous, and he never acted arrogantly towards the maids, even though it seemed that the young ladies were the same. It must be thanks to his good upbringing.

What she found most unbelievable was that, unlike the boys in her class, Sakura Koji, despite having a face that could make anyone look down on him, never used that advantage to go around flirting or chasing after women. He didn't even have a single magazine of that kind in his room—he was hardly like a boy in the prime of his youth.

Could it be...? Although she didn't want to believe it, this dangerous thought sometimes couldn't help but arise in her mind.

No way! Absolutely not!

Since the young master and young lady are both so good to me, for the sake of the Sakurakoji family's future, I absolutely cannot let this happen!

Aoyama Nanami made up her mind. That's right, the young master's interest in this area has just not yet awakened because he has seen too many beauties since he was a child. It's definitely not what I imagined!

So, my task is to assist the young master in completing this stage of his life transformation, to help him discover his instincts and honestly face his desires. Aoyama Nanami's expression unconsciously turned serious.

But what should I do?

Does it mean that, like the senior maids in the mansion say, a qualified maid must learn from the practices of ancient European maids and serve wholeheartedly...?! Ta-da! Absolutely not! There must be another way!

Thinking of this, Aoyama Nanami's face turned exceptionally rosy, and her eyes welled up with tears, making her already lovely face even more adorable.

Staring blankly out of the building, Sakura Koji was completely unaware of the complex and ever-changing thoughts of the person next to him. If he knew that she had not only given him the "friend zone" card but also questioned his sexual orientation, he might take some overstepping actions against her in a fit of anger!

After pondering for a while, he suddenly brought up a topic that Aoyama Nanami had never even considered.

"Nanami, do you think it would be better for me to open a cat cafe?"

"Huh?" Aoyama Nanami was stunned, completely unaware of what he was talking about or why the conversation had suddenly turned to this topic.

"I'm so sorry, could you please say it again? I didn't hear you clearly." To be sure she hadn't misheard, she could only ask again, carefully considering her words.

"I said, do you think I should open a cat cafe right now?"

"...Could you please explain why this topic was suddenly brought up? I'm very curious."

"Nothing special, it's just that I feel there are a lot of young people who like cats and dogs these days, especially cats."

"So what? This has nothing to do with Young Master Cai, right? Or do you like him too?" Aoyama Nanami looked confused, completely unable to understand his thought process.

Just because others like it, you want to open a cat cafe? Is it because you don't have enough pocket money and want to start a business to make money?

If that's the case, I advise you to stop now—lest you squander what little you have left.

"No, I neither like it nor hate it. But... never mind, I know the answer." Only after saying it did he realize that there was no need to discuss this kind of question with her at all, and he couldn't possibly reveal all his thoughts to her.

"Ha, that's good..." Aoyama Nanami still looked confused, but since he had said so, she wouldn't ask any further questions.

After making his judgment, Sakurakoji stopped talking.

Cat cafes, they must be somewhat useful, right?

Better safe than sorry, let's open one first. We'll prepare a few cats of all kinds, keep the decor quiet, and open it in the underground shopping mall below. Even if we don't use them, it won't cost much.

There should be people who like it; in fact, he already had a few cat lovers in mind.

If we follow his steps, even if it's only slightly helpful, then his efforts won't have been in vain.

Things seemed to be getting interesting. Sakurakoji's smile twitched into an arc in the air.

……

"Good morning." After the usual greeting, Sakurakoji walked into the starry sky.

"Oh~ We have a rare guest today." Sakurakoji Saiko looked at the person who appeared by the bar with a surprised expression.

"Shut up! You have a problem with that?" Hiratsuka Shizuka, who had just arrived, took out a cigarette with a white pack, turned around and retorted to Sakurakoji Sai.

"Not at all. On the contrary, your presence is a great honor to our humble establishment." Sakurakoji Sai naturally had no aversion to her attitude; on the contrary, he was very welcoming of her arrival.

Unfortunately, this time the other party wasn't looking for me; in fact, most of the time they aren't.

Ever since Hiratsuka Shizuka and Yukinoshita Haruno came to Fanxing last time and he half-dragged them onto the stage to perform a piece, the two seem to have fallen in love with this place and occasionally come here to relax when they have time.

Surprisingly, the person with whom Shizuka Hiratsuka got along best was not Sakurakoji Takayuki, but rather Iji Tomoka.

Perhaps because they had both been hurt by the age issue last time, the two unexpectedly hit it off. After learning that the other was also an older "beautiful girl" and that they were close in age, they seemed to have found common ground, and their relationship has now become quite sympathetic.

Therefore, Shizuka Hiratsuka received the special privilege of being able to enter the venue before the opening time without having to wait for the opening date—as the boss's new best friend.

Sakurakoji was somewhat envious of this, but there was nothing he could do. No matter how talented he was, he couldn't change his age.

Unless he proposes to Hiratsuka Shizuka on the spot, his status in her heart may not be comparable to that of Ijichi Seika for a while.

"It's good that you know." She was quite satisfied with Sakurakoji's sensible understanding.

Or rather, having such a high-caliber character suffer defeat at her hands greatly satisfies her desire to win and conquer.

She sighed. "If only all the kids in school could be as sensible as him."

Volume 1: Daily Life of Attracting Bees and Butterflies: Chapter 75 Three Teasing of Jing'er

The thought of those annoying guys made her feel incredibly irritated.

Although she hasn't been teaching for many years, she feels like she's already approaching middle age.

"Work is so annoying, I don't want to work~" She pressed her broad mind on the table and let out a wail, then tried to take out a cigarette for a puff.

"Huh?" Rouyi reached out and found nothing. After searching for a while without success, she had no choice but to look up.

The result was that she met the serious face of Ijichi Nijika, who had experience dealing with this kind of smoker.

“Smoking indoors, damn it!” She still made an X and refused.

"Eh~~~!" Hiratsuka Shizuka switched to her spoiled child mode and said willfully, "What does it matter, Nijika-chan!"

Far from Chiba, where no one knows her, she can freely express herself in ways she wouldn't normally show, which is one of the reasons she likes coming to Fanxing.

"No, Miss Shizuka, this is for everyone's sake." Ichiji Nijika was completely unresponsive to her coquettishness. She had seen this kind of scene too many times with her older sister and was basically immune to it.

"mean!"

"Being stingy is unacceptable!"

Seeing that she couldn't persuade her, Hiratsuka Shizuka turned to look at Iji Tomoka sitting next to her and nudged her.

"Hey, do something about your sister! Look how badly I've been bullied!"

"Heh, you think you're the only one who'll get bullied?" Ichiji Hoshika glanced at her sideways and said with a faint, bitter smile, "If you mess with her, at most you'll get your cigarettes confiscated. But if I mess with her, I might not even have food to eat every day!"

"...Tsk, you useless siscon." Hiratsuka Shizuka clicked her tongue, complaining about her new best friend's incompetence.

“…You’re so long-winded.” Ijichi Hoshika’s pretty face flushed slightly, but she was unwilling to admit it and turned her head to the side.

Taking in this harmonious scene, Sakurakoji smiled and joined the conversation: "Ms. Shizuka came very early today, did you come right after school?"

"Don't you dare call me Shizuka! You bastard!" Hiratsuka Shizuka slammed her fist on the table, glaring at him fiercely.

"Eh~ Do you prefer to be called 'Shizukakui' (meaning 'cool' or 'handsome') teacher rather than 'Shizukakui' (meaning 'cute')? That doesn't sound very nice, does it?" Sakurakoji Sai asked hesitantly. "Besides, Shizukakui (meaning 'cute') looks younger no matter how you look at it."

"Call me Miss Hiratsuka properly, you brat!" A dangerous smile appeared on Hiratsuka Shizuka's face, her temples bulging like a grid.
