Chapter 527: You Shouldn’t Worry About Me, Right?
"..."
Fumino's response was a bit surprising.
She never thought Ren would bring up this reason.
"It's easy to solve. Just buy some gifts and don't worry too much." Nino suggested very considerately.
After all, it wasn't her receiving the gifts, so what Ren gave didn't concern her.
"In that case, I understand..." Ren nodded.
If so, then he didn't need to worry about buying gifts.
"No." Ichika denied without hesitation, "Ren-kun, you really can't listen to Nino about this matter."
They had worked hard to review because it was the gifts Ren chose himself. If he truly chose them randomly, wouldn't their efforts be in vain?
"What Nino said is wrong, the gifts should be chosen carefully."
Miku and Ichika were on the same side at the moment.
"If Ren doesn't know what gifts to give, I can help you choose them together." Yotsuba offered.
"We're all looking forward to the gifts prepared by Kamikawa-kun." Itsuki said.
In an instant, Nino was criticized by her sisters and became the target of public criticism.
Although Fumino and Rizu didn't speak, their gazes towards Nino softened slightly.
"I was just kidding. Important gifts like this shouldn't be taken lightly."
Realizing that the situation wasn't favorable for her, Nino changed her tone of speech firmly.
What a group of shameless people.
She complained inwardly.
"For the gift, Kamikawa doesn't need to worry too much. As long as it's chosen carefully, we'll all surely like it." Fumino said.
"Right." Rizu agreed.
No one else objected to Fumino's statement and agreed with this fact.
"I'll choose carefully."
After thinking for a moment, Ren agreed.
Choosing six gifts carefully for them, and then he could also receive six gifts from them.
This was very advantageous for him.
"In that case, it's settled. We look forward to your gifts."
Seeing him agree and not accepting Nino's suggestion to choose randomly, Ichika finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'll also look forward to the gift you give me."
Ren mimicked Ichika's tone and said this.
"Then let's each look forward to it." Fumino said gently.
"Why do you feel we're wasting our time in this atmosphere?" Asumi leaned towards Nino and couldn't help but complain.
"Seriously."
Nino also knew this, but didn't pay too much attention to it.
After continuing the conversation for a while, Ren looked at the time and was about to leave.
"Sorry, I have to go back."
He stood up and said to them.
"How about we go back too?"
Fumino looked at Rizu and Asumi and asked for their opinion.
"Yes."
Rizu and Asumi followed suit and stood up.
However, before leaving, there was one more thing she wanted to say, something she had been thinking about for a long time.
Ren walked towards the TV. Originally, there was a whiteboard here during the lessons, but since the lessons were over, the whiteboard was removed and not pulled.
Seeing Ichika, Nino, Miku, Yotsuba, Itsuki sitting on the sofa staring at him, as well as Fumino, Rizu, and Asumi who had just stood up, Ren bid farewell:
"The semester tutoring is over. Thank you for your cooperation."
······
On the way home, Ren and Asumi walked side by side.
"By the way, if the two of us want to meet again, we have to wait until next semester."
As they walked, Asumi suddenly asked this question.
Now Fumino and Rizu had gone home, and now only the two of them remained, so her way of speaking became bolder.
"Not sure."
Ren didn't want to hope for something like this.
"Boring answer."
Asumi was very dissatisfied with his answer. She sighed deeply and continued, "I've been thinking about asking you to tutor me during the summer vacation."
"What's your decision?" Ren asked.
"Let me confirm for the last time, are you sure you don't want to accept my money?"
Asumi didn't answer his question directly but confirmed it.
"I don't want to."
Ren's answer remained the same.
"Kouhai-kun, you're really stubborn about this." Asumi said helplessly, "If you're willing to accept that money, I won't think too long before making a decision."
"..."
Ren didn't say anything.
There was nothing wrong with helping a classmate, but as long as he accepted money, his nature changed.
Can someone who helps a classmate for money still be called helpful?
"So, my decision is to ask you to tutor me during the summer vacation." Asumi said her answer, "Is that okay?"
In fact, she had always been in a dilemma about this issue and didn't know what choice to make.
In the end, her desire for her dream outweighed her guilt.
Ren's tutoring ability was too strong, as evidenced by the fact that Ichika and the others were all in the top fifty. In this final exam, her grades weren't that good, and she was far from being able to freely choose between liberal arts and sciences.
In two semesters, she would enter her final year of high school and choose between liberal arts and sciences.
Therefore, she had to make use of those two semesters to improve her grades.
And Ren was her best choice.
"Okay." Ren agreed softly.
"Don't worry, I won't take your tutoring for granted." Asumi said, "I'll compensate you elsewhere, otherwise, I'll feel very sorry."
"Oh, where do you want your tutoring place to be?"
Ren didn't care about the compensation she mentioned.
"At my house."
After thinking for a moment, Ren gave this answer.
It did take quite a long time to go to places like the library, but there was no need to waste time at home.
"Kouhai-kun, you don't think about me, do you?"
Asumi took two steps back, away from Ren, and at the same time made a cross in front of her chest with her hands.
"In that case, I suggest you give up as soon as possible. I don't have any intention of falling in love right now."
"I don't."
Ren defended himself.
"Because my house is indeed the most comfortable place for me."
