Chapter 45: Chapter 45: Kei Karuizawa Asks Ying Ye Zhenshi Straight-Up
Sae looked at the pair of boy and girl in front of her.
"..."
Standing beside the duo, she was left speechless.
Single dogs shouldn't have had to see such a sight.
Kei was meant to be a high school gal, so young and virile.
'Karuizawa Kei, aren't you a little gyaru? Why are you being so gentle?'
"Then, I'll wait to hear their conditions. Oh, it really is too sad to have suffered such a serious injury."
Karuizawa Kei let him call the shots, so Ying Ye Zhenshi would not be polite about her favour.
He looked like he would never get out of bed if the seniors didn't give him enough benefits.
Chabashira Sae had a look as though she expected it.
The boy in front of her didn't seem to care about whether or not they had fought him.
She now suspected that the sophomores were the ones being framed.
"Then, we can wait for them to come and talk about it."
"Chabashira sensei looks very busy. There must be something important to do in class, right? If you have some free time, why don't you go take care of your students?"
Looking at the troublesome Sae sticking beside him, Ying Ye Zhenshi thought about driving the woman away.
"Your character is indeed very problematic."
Chabashira Sae had already experienced the bad character of the boy.
Whether it was other students or even the teacher, he completely ignored them.
Even the school seemed to be dispensable to him.
She didn't know where to start with what she had come for.
"Karuizawa-san, I have something to speak to him about. Please allow us to have a moment alone."
Chabashira Sae glanced at Karuizawa.
She wanted the girl to leave first.
"Huh? Is there something I can't know? I was also involved in this matter."
Frowning whilst glancing at Chabashira Sae, Karuizawa Kei instinctively became dissatisfied.
"It's not related to this matter. It's a personal matter."
Chabashira Sae spoke frankly.
"Personal matter…?"
Karuizawa had also wanted to talk about some personal matters, so she didn't want to leave.
This was a womanly instinct of hers, so how could she allow someone else to snatch her prey?
However, the words she wanted to say would not come out.
The relationship between them was not yet clear.
Yesterday, the events had been too hasty, so she was looking forward to finding Ying Ye Zhenshi early in the morning to confirm their relationship.
After all, she had confessed her love, and with the experience they had been through together, she felt that there was a high probability of her being successful in her confession.
And yet, she couldn't even get a word about the matter in, as this annoying female teacher came looking for him for something.
"Chabashira Sensei, I'm not interested in hearing what you have to say."
While Kei Karuizawa found herself in such a dilemma, Ying Ye Zhenshi spoke out.
He probably already knew what the older woman was going to say.
"You..."
Chabashira Sae became a little annoyed.
"If you just think about it all day but don't do anything, you won't receive anything, and you can't give anything. As a person, you must rely on yourself, sensei. This is a piece of advice someone gave me before, so now I will pass it on to you."
Ying Ye Zhenshi looked at the female teacher who looked to be going through menopause.
And then, she opened her mouth slowly.
"Do everything on your own? no wonder you have such awkward behaviour. It's hard for me to comprehend your understanding of this sentence. But, let me tell you something. People live in groups, and everyone has to support and be supported each other. There will always be something one cannot accomplish alone, so I look forward to seeing the day you fail."
Hearing Ying Ye Zhenshi's words, Chabashira Sae stared at him firmly, wondering what kind of things he had experienced to think as he did.
Finally, she left such a message before leaving.
"Wow."
After the door was pushed open, it closed shut on its own, and Sae Chabashira's figure disappeared.
Only Ying Ye Zhenshi and Karuizawa Kei were left in the ward.
"Well, what happened between you and sensei?"
Karuizawa asked worriedly.
The way the teacher had left made it seem like she was angry with him.
And what Ying Ye Zhenshi had said about relying on himself made her a little worried too.
"Ah, maybe it's menopause. If that's all, why don't you go back and rest?"
Ying Ye Zhenshi did not answer her sincerely.
"..."
But this was obviously not what Karuizawa Megumi wanted to hear.
"Well…"
There was a little silence as she was slowly mustering up the courage to speak.
"Speak directly if you have something to say."
Under Ying Ye Zhenshi's gaze, she decided to say what was on her mind.
"About what happened last night, I just wanted to ask about the confession. You haven't answered me yet."
Not wanting Ying Ye Zhenshi to give her some messy excuses, Karuizawa Kei asked him straight up.
Hearing this, even Ying Ye Zhenshi scratched his head as a little headache sprouted within.
It never occurred to him that someone would confess to him knowing his character.
"Well, how about it?"
Sitting beside the bed devotedly, Karuizawa felt a little embarrassed when she didn't get an answer right away.
This was her first confession.
But for her safe future, this was truly the best choice.
"Hmm? Well, can you tell me why first? I don't think there is anything attractive about me per se. Even if you have heard those things about me from outside of school, that's not a good enough reason to ask me out, is it?"
Ying Ye Zhenshi remembered her fanboy attitude and became a little speechless.
'Do I accept it? Or not accept it? I am feeling a little complicated inside. This is quite a novel experience, and I feel a little bit happy in my heart. But at the same time, I don't know how to deal with this situation. Is the girl in front of me cute? She is really cute. But do I like her? That's not the case.'
His love was not that cheap anymore.
After all, it had been 'sold' at a low price before.
'Ah, that was the part of my youth I lost.'
Recalling a specific girl from his memory, he felt a stomachache coming on.
