Chapitre 82: Chapter 70.3
Originally, he had promised Horikita's older brother to teach this little sister of his how to behave.
Now that the girl in question had delivered herself to his doorstep, it was natural for him to 'teach' her well.
"You didn't call me by the wrong name this time. That is really surprising. I'll just say it straight then. I want to know what you have made of the school's rules, and about what you think of Class D in general. Why do you think people like us have been assigned to class D? If you have something you want from me in exchange, I can give you some points for your answers."
Horikita Suzune frowned upon asking that, as her eyebrows creased inwards a bit.
She knew there was no point in arguing over who had the worst personality between the two and just directly asked if he wanted points in exchange.
One after another, she had asked to learn secret information from him.
Horikita Suzune was like a book that asked the hundred thousand whys.
She clearly didn't know how to be polite at all when asking for such information.
The last thing she wanted to know the most was about having been assigned to Class D.
She was very unconvinced by the school's evaluation of her abilities.
She wanted to learn of the reason from Ying Ye Zhenshi.
Ying Ye Zhenshi stood where he was, looking at the cold girl in front of him, thinking about how to fulfil Horikita's request.
And when he heard the girl's final question, he smiled, as he realised she had really put him and herself in the same boat.
"Did you just say 'us'? Who are you to put me in the same boat as you? Horikita Suzune, you seem to have misunderstood something. You are you, and I am me. There is no 'us'. Just going by the number of private points we each have, do you think you and I can be counted in the same league in that sense? And, even if you can give me your points for my answers, do you think I should talk to you with just those few yen worth of points you have? You have so many questions. You are really not polite. But that's fine, I'll answer you when you beg me. Don't bother me if you don't plan to do so. I have something to do now, so I'll be leaving first."
'You are a beautiful girl who is not aware that your own personality is your greatest flaw.'
Ying Ye Zhenshi left out the answer to her question.
Then, he turned around and left without looking back.
He seemed to have no regard for beautiful girls.
He even played with his mobile phone while walking, and it appeared as though his mobile phone was more fun than talking to a beautiful girl.
He left her standing there with a rigid expression on her face, as she tried to catch up with what he had said in her head.
Horikita Suzune stood where he had left her, clenched her fists tightly, and wanted to rush up and hit him.
All she had done was ask him some questions.
'What a nasty guy.'
She was feeling an unquenchable resentment in her heart at having been spoken to in such a way, but Horikita Suzune didn't express her inner feelings.
"Horikita. What are you doing?"
While Horikita Suzune was standing there like an icicle, a person walked out of the school building.
He was her deskmate Ayanokoji Kiyotaka who sat near her in class.
"You've been peeping since earlier. Don't you know what just happened?"
Horikita Suzune spoke to him ambiguously.
The cold maiden was very angry now.
"I just came now and saw you talking to him. I wasn't close enough to have heard anything though. I don't know what he said. And I don't know him well enough to have approached.
Ayanokōji Kiyotaka said with a deadpan expression, as his eyes looked deadpan.
"I don't know you much either."
Horikita Suzune looked over at him strangely.
The expression on her face should have embarrassed Ayanokōji Kiyotaka, but the boy in question didn't seem to feel any embarrassment at all.
As if nothing had just happened, Ayanokōji Kiyotaka approached her, talked about what had happened during class today, and then wanted to discuss the class's current situation.
He brought up the topics so that they could both communicate their thoughts on the matter.
But regarding the conversation of the two individuals standing outside the school building, Ying Ye Zhenshi was not clear of the contents.
Now, he had an appointment with someone at a cafe.
"You actually invited me to a place like this. You are really extravagant."
It was a well-decorated beverage store or a upscale cafe.
This was usually where individuals would come along if they were out with girls, so Ying Ye wondered who Horikita Manabu had brought along here before to be familiar enough to arrange their appointment here.
Putting that aside, Ying Ye Zhenshi found Manabu and sat down.
"You're welcome. You can order whatever you want, I'll treat you."
Despite Ying Ye's praise, Horikita Manabu spoke in a very tempered tone.
Following his words, however, Ying Ye Zhenshi was not polite.
He looked through all kinds of things on the menu, like snacks such as shaved ice and cream puffs.
It looked like he was going to run the wallet of the boy who had invited him dry.
Horikita Manabu still remained expressionless and calm.
"There should have been a conflict in your class today."
After everything had been ordered and the waiter left, Horikita Manabu spoke.
"You really pay close attention. A sis-con can be quite scary. You didn't just watch her leave the classroom, did you?"
Ying Ye Zhenshi complained and then looked at him with a strange gaze.
He wondered if the boy had been paying attention to their class the entire time.
"I just saw her chasing you out. I found out while watching the surveillance footage."
Horikita looked at him seriously.
He didn't bother to argue over the comments about him being a sis-con.
Right now, there were more important things to discuss.
Ying Ye didn't know if the boy was pretending or really didn't care, but Ying Ye Zhenshi talked about the situation anyway.
"I don't know if you saw it on the footage, but she wanted to ask me about why she was assigned to class D. As for her personality flaws, I completely kept my mouth shut, and that's about it."
"She is still like this, not understanding the difference between isolation and independence."
Listening to his answer, Horikita also shook his head, feeling a little helpless.
"I am just asking you to teach her a lesson, but don't take it too far. If you do well, I will give you something as a reward before I graduate. Right now, given that I am responsible for my class, I cannot give you anything."
At first, he had wanted to say some harsh words toward his sister, but considering Ying Ye Zhenshi's personality, Horikita hesitated.
