Fumino Furuhashi bit her pink lips, her pearly teeth trembling slightly, her entire face screaming a forced smile.

Calm down... Furuhashi, we can't be sure yet. If it's a misunderstanding, then it's incredibly embarrassing.

We need to confirm this.

"That Hayakawa-kun,"

Fumino Furuhashi mustered her courage and looked at Hayakawa seriously, asking, "What did you mean by what you just said to Tanaka-kun?"

"Uh…"

Hayakawa Haku looked confused: "Which sentence are you referring to?"

"Yes…"

Fumino Furuhashi's face was flushed red, and steam slowly rose from her head. She covered her face and whispered, "I am your...that sentence."

"Ah, that line."

Hayakawa Shiro scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "After all, the goal was to get rid of Tanaka and stop bothering you, so I said some embarrassing things."

"So this is ah…"

Fumino Furuhashi breathed a sigh of relief, but felt a sense of emptiness and confusion, as if a spice shop had been overturned.

That's good, now I can focus on my studies.

she thought.

"But I'm serious."

Hayakawa Shiro suddenly said.

"serious?!"

Fumino Furuhashi's voice suddenly rose three decibels, and she instinctively covered her chest with one hand, where her chest was heaving violently.

"Yes, I will not give up."

Hayakawa Shiro stared directly at Furuhashi Fumino in front of him, his sharp eyes reflecting the terrifying shadow of the liberal arts prodigy, his gaze burning with a fighting spirit like flames.

Yes, seriously.

Students and arch-rivals!

Whether I'm going to teach you science or beat you in the humanities, I'm serious.

Declaring war in front of others is indeed a bit shameful, but Hayakawa Shiro doesn't care about that.

It doesn't matter how many times you've been defeated and crushed; what matters is figuring out even more despicable and shameless tricks to win next time.

Come on, no matter how dark and vicious my methods are, let's have a fair and square competition!

This is Hayakawa Haku's challenge to Furuhashi Fumino—a struggle he will never give up no matter how many times he fails.

I am Hayakawa Shiro, the general of Lingling. You brat, Guqiao, do you dare to come out of the city and fight me?

Hayakawa Shiro stared intently at the ancient bridge in front of him, his eyes burning with a fierce fighting spirit that seemed to burst from their sockets.

Fumino Furuhashi: "..."

So domineering!

What's wrong with this man?! What he said was practically a confession! And he said it so bluntly and directly, right in front of me!!

"Well…"

Fumino Furuhashi's head was steaming like water boiling over. She didn't dare to look up and say another word. She was the worst at dealing with his domineering attitude, which reminded her of her father.

"Is there anything else?"

Hayakawa Shiro was somewhat disappointed that she didn't respond, but still asked.

"That's all, that's all,"

Fumino Furuhashi shook her head vigorously, waving her hands repeatedly, and said, "That's more than enough!"

There couldn't be anything more direct than what you just said; I completely understand your love now.

"Then I'm going back to class. You should go back and pay attention in class too."

Hayakawa Shiro wanted to leave, but then she remembered something and said, "You don't need to worry about Tanaka. He probably won't come looking for you again before Yue arrives."

Fumino Furuhashi, standing behind Hayakawa, whispered, "What if he comes again?"

"If he comes looking for you again, I'll be in real trouble."

Hayakawa Haku paused slightly, his brows furrowing as he said in a sinister voice, "If he dares to obstruct me, I'll eliminate him."

Fumino Furuhashi vaguely heard these words, and her body trembled instantly, her heart breaking.

Hayakawa-san really went too far; I can't accept it!

……

What should I do?

Hayakawa-kun actually has romantic feelings for me...

In the library, Fumino Furuhashi held her head in distress, looking extremely conflicted and unable to contain herself.

They're clearly teacher and student... They're clearly teacher and student...

Fumino Furuhashi collapsed weakly onto the table, covering her face as if she were about to cry.

If I were to refuse directly...

Inner Theater:

"This is just a brainless water flea, how dare it reject my passionate love..."

"How arrogant!"

NO! ! !

Hayakawa-kun is so serious about me, it would be so heartless of me to just reject her like that, it would be utterly ruthless!

But if you agree to it, that's fine.

Fumino Furuhashi blushed and lowered her head, silently thinking, "No."

This kind of irresponsible interaction is disrespectful to both myself and Hayakawa-kun; I can't do such a thing.

"Ancient bridge..."

Hayakawa, who was sitting next to her, suddenly called out to Fumino Furuhashi.

Hi! I'm here.

Fumino Furuhashi was startled and instinctively responded, but when she turned around, she found Hayakawa Shiro and Ogata Rizu both staring at her. Her confidence immediately vanished, and she shrank back, weakly saying, "What is it...?"

"Hmm...it's hard to explain in a short time,"

Hayakawa Shiro looked Furuhashi Fumino up and down, then pondered for a moment before saying something with a serious expression.

"But could you and Ogata stay at my house for the next few days?"

Chapter Ten [X]... Makes Genius Uneasy

"Hmm...it's hard to explain in a short time..."

Hayakawa Shiro looked at Furuhashi Fumino earnestly and said softly, "But could you and Ogata stay at my house for the next few days?"

Fumino Furuhashi: "..."

Why are you suddenly talking so seriously about something?

After a brief moment of shock, Guqiao smiled kindly: "Eh? What does that mean? I don't quite understand?"

This is the person, isn't it? This is the person right in front of me.

He said those things to me at noon, and then in the afternoon he started inviting me to live with him at his home?

And if I heard correctly, he said "you and Ogata"...

Hmm...S? Plural?

As Fumino Furuhashi thought of this, her smile became even gentler.

So that's how it is! All those words from this morning weren't a confession at all, but an invitation to join my harem? Hahaha, I got tricked!

I never imagined that such a shameless person, who could openly advocate having two relationships at the same time, would actually appear right next to me.

The literary girl's eyes gradually became vacant, containing a terrifying substance like dark matter.

A filthy existence in the universe...it's terrifying.

"Fumino,"

Ogata Rizu tilted her head, looked at Furuhashi with a puzzled expression, and said, "I've already agreed, now it's just a matter of you."

"what???"

Fumino Furuhashi's thoughts were instantly pulled back from outer space to her mind, and she looked at Ogata in disbelief: "Rizu-chan, what did you say?"

Rizu-chan actually agreed? Has she already been defiled by Hayakawa's scum? No! My pure Rizu-chan!

It's all your fault!

Fumino Furuhashi gave Hayakawa a killer look.

"Uh…"

Hayakawa was a little confused: "What kind of look is that? I'm just sincerely telling you this, I want to discuss it with you."

Is this something that can be discussed?

"Yes, Fumino,"

Ogata Rizu, standing to the side, said, "Think it over carefully."

You actually joined in trying to persuade me?

"Wait... my mind is a bit muddled,"

Fumino Furuhashi slumped onto the table, her brain overloaded, and said weakly, "Can I sort this out first?"

"Hmm...this is indeed a bit troublesome,"

Hayakawa Shiro nodded in agreement: "After all, the workload is heavier and there are troubles at home, so it's normal for you to think it over carefully."

"Hmm? Studying?"

Fumino Furuhashi was taken aback, and looked up at Hayakawa blankly: "What do you mean?"

Didn't you hear us talking?

Hayakawa was also stunned.

"No…"

Gu Qiao blushed slightly: "I was concentrating on...studying just now."

I'm really sorry for lying. Actually, I was just thinking about romance.

"Oh, is that so? Then it's my fault, I thought you heard me,"

Hayakawa Shiro scratched his head and looked at the blue-haired girl in front of him seriously, saying, "Furuhashi, actually, my role as an instructor is currently in crisis."

……

Hayakawa Shiro told Fumino what Kirisu-sensei had told him that morning: if they both failed the next monthly exam, his instructor status would be revoked.

"How could this be?"

After hearing this, Fumino Furuhashi's expression turned grim: "That teacher is still the same as before, showing no compassion whatsoever."

"Just saying,"

Hayakawa nodded sincerely and said frankly, "Simply put, given the current pace and speed of your studies, it's impossible for both of you to pass before the next monthly exam. You two know your learning situation better than I do, so you should know that I'm telling the truth."

Fumino Furuhashi and Rizu Ogata both lowered their heads simultaneously, their eyes darting around, clearly aware of their current skill level.
