Just as Ye Shanming was about to refuse, he saw the door open. A woman who looked somewhat similar to Azusa Azusa but had a different natural figure walked out. She saw Ye Shanming at a glance, her eyes lit up, and a happy and gossipy smile appeared on her face.

"Hey, classmate, you are the one who brought my troubled daughter back home, right? Come in and have a cup of tea."

Ye Shanming immediately understood what he was facing. To avoid trouble, he refused outright:

"I'm sorry, Auntie. It's too late. Xiaodouzi and I are just ordinary colleagues, so we'll go back first."

By the way, he glanced at Azusa, who hadn't figured out the situation yet, with a pathetic look, and secretly complained in his heart:

You're only in the first year of high school and I'm already worried that you won't be able to get married. How bad must your popularity be that your aunt has no confidence in you at all? Certain groups of people will go crazy when they see you.

But it’s also good. The focus of high school students is to study. Don’t think about dating all the time.

After watching Ye Shanming leave, Xiaodouzi, who had just returned home, put the dessert bag and small shoulder bag on the coffee table when she heard her mother's serious voice:

"Mom, I'm very satisfied with this boy. Since he's just an ordinary colleague, you have to seize the opportunity to make a move, okay?"

"what?"

Azusa Azusa looked bewildered.

After sending Azuki Azusa home, it was already past eight o'clock. The tweet about [Magical Girl Merry] had not been posted yet, so he quickly took the time to draw on his notebook.

With strong body control ability, he sketched out the cute little Mary in a maid outfit in just a few strokes. The style of the maid outfit was inspired by the one that Azusa Azusa wore to work. Then, as usual, he took a photo, posted a tweet, and selected a few lucky otakus to interact with his comments.

"Ding dong."

The special reminder message alert sounded, and Ye Shanming clicked it out of curiosity. He remembered that this account did not pay special attention to anyone.

[Akino Shiki]: It’s a bit late to post today. Did something happen to you?

Ye Shanming raised his eyebrows. It turned out to be you. I saw this person draw a fan art of Meili before. Although the lines were a bit immature, the standard was good, so I paid attention to it.

[Magical Girl Meili]: Meili went to learn how to make hand-ground coffee today, so I haven't posted it yet. I'm so sorry [crying]

After replying casually, Ye Shanming turned off the software, finished the dessert sent by the store manager, and prepared to take a shower and go to bed without caring about whether the calories would explode.

At the Shinomiya residence, Hayasaka Ai was the culprit who first posted Hayama Akira's photo on Twitter and used a network of internet trolls to spread it, which ultimately led to the afternoon's traffic hell. After finally coaxing Shinomiya Kaguya to sleep, she did not lie down on her own bed. Instead, she went to a secret room, where her real owner was already sitting behind the large table waiting for her.

"Report, what has my lovely sister been doing recently?"

Chapter 8 Then only the old mother can take action.

"Miss Kaguya hasn't been doing anything special these days. She's just been attending classes and preparing for next semester's student council election. She's currently trying to build her prestige among the pure academy students, winning over some and suppressing others."

Hayasaka Ai reported to Shinomiya Huangguang calmly. Although she was Shinomiya Kaguya's attendant on the surface, she was a spy planted by Shinomiya Huangguang next to Shinomiya Kaguya from the very beginning, responsible for monitoring and reporting Shinomiya Kaguya's behavior.

"Also, in this high school entrance exam, a student from a mixed-up college took first place. Miss Kaguya thought this person was a threat and asked me to investigate him and expel him according to the rules."

"Huh, my sister is still so narrow-minded."

Sigong Huangguang sneered, a hint of sarcasm on his lips: "She's just a bastard from the same courtyard, yet you actually regard her as a formidable enemy? This is a disgrace to our Sigong family. An illegitimate daughter is an illegitimate daughter, and she cannot be seen in public."

Hayasaka Ai still stood there, not saying a word. Her hands hidden under her sleeves couldn't help but clenched, her knuckles turning white, but on the surface she showed no emotion at all.

Shinomiya Huangguang didn't care about Hayasaka Ai. She was just a servant. What could she do to him even if she had the courage? He was the eldest son of the Shinomiya family and would definitely be in charge of this huge family in the future.

"In that case, it's time to give my good sister another blow."

Shinomiya Huangguang sneered and knocked on the table: "Hayasaka Nao!"

A mature woman walked out from the shadows of the room. She had the same blonde hair and blue eyes as Hayasaka Ai, but her temperament was much more mature. She also stood respectfully beside Shinomiya Huangguang.

When she saw this person, Hayasaka Ai's calm expression was instantly broken. She became a little excited, but she suppressed it forcefully.

"Go inform the principal of Shuchiin High School and tell them that the chairman will personally award a 50 yen scholarship to the top scorer in this midterm exam."

"Yes."

Hayasaka Nao received the order and left the room directly, leaving Hayasaka Ai alone to face Shinomiya Huangguang.

"You should go out too."

Shinomiya Huangguang waved his hand, signaling Hayasaka Ai to leave, and the latter hurriedly followed suit, but Hayasaka Nao was no longer visible.

"My dear sister, a man of courage will always be rewarded. Since you value that mixed-up student so much, if they beat you head-on in the area that you value most, will you still be able to maintain that annoying attitude?"

Then Sigong Huangguang's triumphant laughter rang out in the room.

After the report was completed, Hayasaka Ai, who had finally finished a whole day's work, finally had her rest time. After taking a shower, she let her soft golden long hair hang down casually, got into bed, opened the video website, and clicked on her favorite video.

Watching the slime in the video being smashed in various ways, the stress that had been pent up for a day was released, and I fell asleep with the video playing.

In the morning, Xiaodouzi looked at the insulated lunch box on the table in confusion. Her mother didn't know what had happened to her, but she forced her out of bed at 5 o'clock in the morning and taught her how to make breakfast. After almost burning down the kitchen, she managed to make a decent fried egg.

Then the mother sighed, "Why did I give birth to such a stupid daughter like you?" and fried another piece of tempura and put it in the lunch box, finally completing a normal lunch box.

"Ye Shanjun and I are just ordinary colleagues. Isn't it a bad idea to send lunch boxes?"

"You stupid daughter!"

Azuki's mother couldn't help but knock her head, but after considering her daughter's mood, she finally changed her words:

"Ye Shanjun sent you home last night, but he left without even a cup of tea. This bento is a thank you gift. Do you want the neighbors to laugh at us for our lack of etiquette?!"

"Ok."

Azusa finally put the wrapped insulated lunch box into her small bag and said, "Then I'll go out."

"Go, go, go!"

Xiaodouzi's mother urged impatiently. Looking at her daughter's back, she couldn't help but sigh: "Really, my daughter is useless and I have to take action."

Along the way, Xiaodouzi was very nervous, not knowing how to give the lunch box to Ye Shanming. The two of them had already added each other as Line friends last night. She wanted to open the Line avatar, but she didn't know what to say, so she had to give up.

It was not until she arrived at the store and did not see Ye Shanming that she breathed a sigh of relief. She hurried to the dressing room, changed into a maid outfit, and started working.

It was a little after one in the afternoon when Ye Shanming leisurely came into the store and greeted Xiao Douzi who was drowsy sitting at the bar.

"Good afternoon, Azusa."

When Xiaodouzi, who was woken up, saw that it was Ye Shanming, she was immediately filled with resentment. She was originally worried about how to give him the lunch box, but who knew that this guy didn't come all morning, making her nervous for so long in vain.

"Why did you come?"

After complaining a bit, she was no longer nervous and only had resentment. She directly took out the lunch box that she had prepared in the morning from her bag and stuffed it into Ye Shanming's hand in a bad mood.

"Here, my mom said it's a thank you gift for taking me home last night."

Ye Shanming took it speechlessly, not knowing what to say.

Auntie, you are so cunning that you can even come up with such an excuse, especially since your daughter actually believed it!

Xiaodouzi looked at Ye Shanming holding the lunch box without moving, as if he was disgusted, and was inexplicably angry: "If you have eaten at noon, just throw this away. My mother forced me to make it anyway."

Seeing the uncontaminated stupidity in Azusa Azusa's eyes, Ye Shanming could only heat up the lunch box in the microwave in the store. It happened that he had not eaten lunch at noon.

But I have to say that the bento tasted really good. Feeling thirsty, Ye Shanming secretly made himself a latte.

"what about the taste?"

Looking at Ye Shanming who was eating heartily, Xiaodouzi, whose resentment had almost dissipated, asked nervously for his opinion. Ye Shanming, who had no opinion of her at all, answered truthfully:

"The rice balls and tempura were delicious, but the omelet was a bit dark and tasted like charcoal and bitter."

Then he raised his head and offered his suggestion to Xiaodouzi, who looked unhappy: "You can ask Auntie to try frying eggs in a hot pan with cold oil. Frying in 40% hot oil for one minute is enough."

"Just eat your meal, why are you talking so much?"

After working hard for the whole morning, Xiaodouzi received such an evaluation. She angrily slammed the lid of the lunch box on the table, ignored Ye Shanming and went back to the bar to wipe the coffee cups.

Ye Shanming shrugged his shoulders. Well, it seems that the fried egg was made by her. Without saying anything more, he quickly finished all the food, washed the lunch box and returned it to Xiaodouzi. The latter took it with a dark face and was obviously still angry.

With no one behind the scenes causing trouble today, the number of customers in the coffee shop has obviously decreased. Only some customers who were slow to get the news come here. The two of them are fully capable of taking care of it according to the division of labor from yesterday.

At closing time, Ye Shanming received today's salary from the store manager. Seeing that he had earned almost 2 yen for working ten hours in two days, he wanted to work full-time. Unfortunately, the punishment of not being able to graduate from Shuchiin was too terrible, and he didn't want to experience it at all.

He still sent Azuki Azuki home, then pretended to be stupid and refused the invitation from Azuki Azuki's mother. Without hesitation, he sent a tweet using the account of "Magical Girl Merry" and then Akira Yeshan prepared to rest.

Tomorrow is Monday, and he doesn't know whether Jieyoushe can receive new love commissions. He can't help but want to save the high school students who have gone astray in love.

Chapter 9: This kind of atmosphere where I’m the only one who’s failing.

Early in the morning, because his part-time job paid a relatively high salary, Ye Shanming indulged himself for a rare luxury. He bought soy milk and fried dough sticks at a nearby Chinese breakfast shop and ate while walking towards the tram stop. Now that he had money, he naturally didn't have to take the No. 11 bus and spend more than an hour to go to school. He didn't like to make things difficult for himself.

"People in front, get out of the way!"

A loud shout came from behind Ye Shanming. Ye Shanming slightly turned sideways, and a bicycle passed by him with a strong airflow. The boy with blond hair did not forget to turn around and apologize to him.

"Sorry, I'm in a hurry."

But that murderous look didn't look like an apology at all. Looking at the boy's uniform, which was exactly the same as his own, Ye Shanming drank the last sip of soy milk and sighed inwardly:

As expected of Shuchiin, even the bikers are extraordinary, pedaling their bikes like will-o'-the-wisp. If I were to become the Discipline Committee member, I would definitely promote the Five Legitimate Behaviors and Four Beauties!

Ignoring the minor incident on the way to school, after arriving at school and singing the school song every day, the homeroom teacher came into the class leisurely and announced a very important news for Ye Shanming:

"The chairman of the board feels that the learning atmosphere at Shuchiin High School is too lax, so he has decided that the top scorer in this midterm exam will receive a scholarship of 500,000 yen, sponsored by the chairman. I hope that all students will study hard during this month..."

When Ye Shanming, who was originally drawing with his head down, heard this, he immediately raised his head. If he could get this scholarship of 500,000 yen, he would have a computer and it could even alleviate his precarious financial situation.

So, today's teachers saw a strange sight. Ye Shanming, who usually never listened to the class, was actually studying seriously and even lowered his head to take notes.

Seeing this, the teacher in class couldn't help but work harder, wishing to use all his skills. However, this made it difficult for other students. They just felt that the teacher was particularly serious today, and they couldn't understand what he was saying if they were distracted for a moment. They could only cheer up and devote themselves to learning.

As the bell rang, the whole class couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Some of them even lay down on the table. Tanuma Tsubasa looked at his densely written notebook, thinking about a few questions he didn't understand, and turned to look for Shijo Shinki who was sitting behind him.

"Four..."

When Shijo Maki saw that Tanuma Tsubasa was looking for her, she was secretly happy. She was thinking that if Tanuma Tsubasa invited her to play together after school, how should she say it so that she would not refuse but still remain reserved.

Tanuma Tsubasa opened his notebook, pointed at the writing on it and asked:

"The teacher here speaks too fast. You're a better student than me. Can you help me explain it?"

"Although I don't have time today, if you really want me to go, Tanuma, it's not impossible. Hmm?"

Shijo Maki spoke almost at the same time as Tanuma Tsubasa, and then found that what Tanuma Tsubasa said was not what she thought. Her face immediately blushed with shame, and she wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into. Fortunately, she quickly adjusted her mentality and turned to look at Tanuma Tsubasa's notebook seriously.

"Oh, sorry, I was thinking about something else just now. Here, I should do this first..."

Shijo Shinki concentrated on explaining to Tanuma Tsubasa, who absorbed the knowledge very attentively. After Shijo Shinki finished speaking, Tanuma Tsubasa thanked him, then turned around and began to seriously preview the content of the next class. Even when Kashiwagi Nagisa wanted to chat with him, he postponed it to after school.

Ye Shanming also noticed them and was very pleased. If a young man could be taught, then he couldn't fall behind. He opened his textbook and began to prepare for the exam. Since he had decided to win the scholarship, his usual study attitude would definitely not be good. Xiuzhiyuan was full of talented people. If he didn't work hard, he might not be able to defeat this group with just his enhanced memory and comprehension skills.

As if infected by the attitudes of the two, the classmates who were originally exhausted also forced themselves to cheer up. Tanuma Tsubasa, who usually had average grades, and Hayama Akira, who never studied, both started to work hard. What right did they have to rest?

Everyone started to prepare for class. The enthusiastic learning atmosphere in the class was in sharp contrast to the relaxation in other classes after class.

"What the hell is going on with these guys?!"

Shijo Shinki was a little dumbfounded and couldn't help but look at her good friend Kashiwagi Nagisa, only to see that the latter was also following the preview.

"Nagisa, why are you also..."

"Ya is also studying. I don't want to lose to him in this midterm exam."

Kashiwagi Nagisa answered Shijo Shinki without turning her head.

Shijo Shinki looked at the scene in front of her blankly, feeling that she was somewhat out of place.

What's going on? This atmosphere makes me feel like I'm the only one who's failing...

When her eyes swept over Ye Shanming, a light bulb went off in her head, as if she had finally caught the culprit. Memories flashed through her mind, connecting everything together.

It was this guy. Something had been wrong with him ever since Tanuma Tsubasa came to him for relationship consultation. Not only did he go home directly after school, but even when Kashiwagi Nagisa asked him out on the weekend, he was rejected on the grounds of tutoring. Today's strange phenomenon was definitely related to him.

Is this guy going to turn the entire class into students who only care about studying?! Shijo Shinki felt a chill run down her spine, feeling like she'd uncovered a hidden conspiracy.

Ye Shanming glanced at her strangely. Shijo Zhenfei quickly avoided his gaze and pretended to be studying, fearing that she would also become a person with only studying in her mind.

"Strange, why do I always feel like someone is slandering me?"

Ye Shanming was puzzled.

At the class meeting before school was over, the head teacher emphasized praising everyone's enthusiastic attitude towards learning today, and publicly expressed how pleased he was with Ye Shanming's change. He even shed tears when he was moved, which made Ye Shanming very embarrassed. He just didn't pay attention in class for the past month, right?

After school, Shijo Shinki wanted to find Hayama Akira, but found that the latter had left the house and was nowhere to be found. She could only walk towards the place where he set up his stall, hoping to catch him.

However, the Ye Shanming she was looking for was not at the stall at this time, and went directly to Class B of the first year where Ji Karen was.

Hayasaka Ai was leaning against the door, pretending to play with her cell phone, watching out of the corner of her eyes to see if Hayama Akira was passing by so that she could track him. However, she saw her target walking out of Class C of the first year and heading straight towards her.

Thinking this was a good opportunity for close contact, Hayasaka Ai put on a sweet smile, jumped up and down, and took the initiative to greet Ye Shanming:
