People are teaching, my love stock market just wants to be full

Chapter 138: Ichinose's Possessiveness

Although the uninvited guest Ibuki Mio appeared in the quiet library, Hashima Hikaru was not affected by her. After all, being a book friend can increase Shiina's stock price. The more immersed he is in books, the more he can show off his attitude. What's more, he himself likes reading, so it's just killing two birds with one stone.

Ibuki Mio, who was sitting opposite, originally thought that Hashima Hikaru was just pretending, but as time passed, she found that this guy was actually reading seriously. Not only did he not take the initiative to talk to Shiina, even his body movements did not change much.

Looking carefully at Hikaru Hashima's face, although Ibuki was very reluctant to admit that she was wrong, looking at the boy's serious expression, the vigilance she had just shown suddenly became untenable.

As the class leader of Class D, which is currently ranked last in the class sequence, the short-haired girl certainly did not give up. She wanted to work hard to defeat other opponents, otherwise she would have to maintain this embarrassing ranking in the future.

Even without mentioning the possibility of not being able to graduate successfully in the future, if her personal points remain so low, it will affect her authority in the class. Although Ryuuen is quiet now, it does not mean that he has really given up the idea of ​​​​competing for the class leader. This is Ibuki's intuition.

That's why she reacted so strongly when she saw that Hikaru Hashima was the book friend who had an appointment with Shiina. Now that she found out that the other party was not here to gather information, the girl's mood changed again.

In fact, Ibuki Mio has no interest in reading. Because she has been exposed to martial arts since she was a child, she is more inclined to sports and is only average in studying.

Therefore, after sitting next to Shiina for more than an hour, she was almost at the limit of her patience. She couldn't even read the book in front of her. The girl was just pretending.

However, the other two people were extremely involved. Shiina Hikaru and Hashima Hikaru were each holding a mystery novel in their hands, completely immersed in the story, and didn't even notice Ibuki's various little movements.

"Well, why don't I go back first, Shiina-san."

Ibuki's eyes swept over the two of them several times. After confirming that Hashima Hikaru was indeed not a spy, she was ready to leave.

Instead of continuing to stay here and waste time, it is better to do some exercise, which can make the short-haired girl feel more relaxed.

"Hmm? Ibuki-san, are you ready to leave?" Shiina Hiyori placed her slender little hand on the pages of the book and looked up at the short-haired girl beside her.

"Yeah, it's just a waste of time for me to stay here any longer," Ibuki's gaze fell on Hashima Hikaru, who was still reading across from him. "But I still need to ask Shiina-san to be more careful. This guy is very cunning, so you must not take it lightly when interacting with him."

"Okay, okay, I understand."

Shiina Hiyori looked at the seriousness in Ibuki's eyes and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She had actually considered this issue before she and Hashima Hikaru came into contact.

As students from two different classes, they need to be careful when interacting closely. After all, there is an obvious competitive relationship between the classes, and intelligence may be leaked if they are not careful.

Although she was well aware of these considerations, Shiina Hikaru still wanted to take the initiative to talk to Hashima Hikaru. She had finally found such a suitable like-minded person, and the other party's ideas were so consistent with her own.

Shiina Hiyori felt that she would regret it later if she refused to be friends with the boy just because he was a member of another class.

Anyway, as far as I can see now, Hashima-san hasn't found out any information, so I don't need to be too nervous. Normal contact is fine.

However, just as Ibuki Mio returned the book to Shiina and was about to stand up, she saw a familiar figure in front of her.

The other person had long pink hair, a well-proportioned figure, and a gentle smile on her delicate face. As soon as she stepped into the library door, she immediately attracted the attention of many people.

It’s Ichinose Honami.

Hikaru Hashima, who was reading a book, saw Ibuki Mio suddenly stand up across from him. He looked a little puzzled and asked quickly, "Did Ibuki-san discover something new?"

"No, I just saw someone I know. Maybe he's here to see you."

Ibuki Mio looked at Ichinose Honami who walked into the library. It was obvious that she was looking around, probably looking for someone.

From the short-haired girl's understanding, this candidate could only be Hashima on the opposite side.

"An acquaintance? Who is it?"

After putting the bookmark in the book, Hikaru Hashima turned around and looked behind him. As soon as he turned his head, his eyes met the pink-haired girl.

"Ichinose-san?" The boy looked a little bewildered. Shouldn't she be working in the student union? Why was she here?

"Hashima-san."

After saying hello, an expression of joy appeared on Ichinose's pretty face, and she quickly walked towards Hashima Hikaru.

When she came closer, she saw the two girls sitting opposite Hashima Hikaru, who happened to be people she knew.

"Ibuki-san...and Shiina-san?"

Ichinose Honami stood next to Hashima Hikaru. Since she had already seen the other person, it was necessary to say hello out of courtesy.

"Good afternoon, Ichinose-san."

Although Ibuki dislikes Hashima Hikaru, he has a good impression of Ichinose, so he greets her in a friendly manner.

Shiina Hiyori, who was standing next to her, also knew Ichinose, and followed Ibuki to give her a simple greeting.

"Good afternoon, Ichinose-san. I didn't expect to meet you here. What a coincidence."

"Yeah, what a coincidence."

Ichinose Honami's eyes and brain are very useful, so she immediately discovered that Hashima Hikaru and Shiina Hiyori were originally sitting here, and Ibuki must have added the stool later. Moreover, both of them were holding books in their hands. Judging from the thickness of the books when they were spread out, they have probably been together for quite some time.

"I didn't expect Shiina-san to be reading here with Hashima-san from our class. Did you make an appointment in advance?"

Although she still had a gentle smile on her face, the temperature in Ichinose Honami's eyes suddenly dropped, and her gaze was fixed on Hashima Hikaru's face.

"Well... Shiina-san and I are both mystery novel fans, so sometimes we read here together." Facing Ichinose's gaze, Hikari Hashima suddenly felt a chill on his back, and he forced a smile and said, "But why did Ichinose-san come here so suddenly? Have you finished your work?"

"Because there are fewer things to do today, the seniors asked me to come back first."

Ichinose Honami took a deep look at the two girls sitting opposite Hashima Hikaru. She inexplicably felt a sense of possession in her heart and didn't want the other party to get too close to other girls, especially without her knowledge.

Ibuki looked confused as if she had no idea what was going on, and Shiina Hiyori immediately felt a sense of hostility. However, she knew that Ichinose was not Hashima Hikaru's girlfriend, so her expression remained gentle and she even smiled slightly at the pink-haired girl.

"I see, that's good."

When Hashima Hikaru saw Ichinose Honami who suddenly appeared here, he was a little nervous at first, but he soon felt relieved. This was not something shameful, and there were so many people in the library, so it was easy to explain.

There is no need to worry about entering any special plot.

Shura Field? It doesn't exist, okay?

"Yeah, since today ends so early, let's go back to the dormitory together." Ichinose Honami stared at Hashima Hikaru's face and gently made her suggestion. In order to declare her sovereignty, she almost said this while sticking to the boy's body.

"Oh, it is indeed. It is almost time for dinner now."

Hashima Hikaru quickly agreed. It didn't matter if Ibuki came, but now that Ichinose was here, it would not be appropriate to continue reading with Shiina.

So he closed the book "Magpie Murders" in his hand and said to Shiina Hiyori across from him, "Hey, Shiina-san, can you lend me this book for now? I'll return it to you after I finish reading it, okay?"

"Well, you can finish watching it anytime, Hashima-san. We can discuss the plot then."

Shiina Hiyori smiled gently at the boy, then looked up at Ichinose Honami's pretty face and asked calmly, "Ichinose-san, do you like reading too? I'm quite familiar with this place, maybe I can help you find it."

"Thank you, Shiina-san, but I have too many things to do right now, so I can't devote myself to reading for the time being," the pink-haired girl pursed her lips and said with a smile, "Then we'll be leaving first. See you next time, Shiina-san and Ibuki-san."

After saying this, Ichinose Honami didn't hesitate at all. She stretched out her white and soft hand and grasped Hashima Hikaru's hand, and quickly interlocked their fingers.

"Um...Shiina-san, Ibuki-san, see you next time." Hashima Hikaru nodded at them.

Shiina Hiyori calmly glanced at the two people's hands that were now tightly pressed together, and said lightly: "Goodbye, Hashima-san."

After saying goodbye, Hikaru Hashima let Ichinose Honami hold his hand and walk out. At this time, he could only cooperate with the other party's ideas and not take the initiative to explain unless the other party asked. The more he explained, the more trouble he would cause.

After the two figures completely disappeared in the library, the gentle smile on Shiina Hiwa's face suddenly disappeared. Although her expression was still very gentle, it seemed as if there was something different in it.

"Shiina, do you want to continue reading here?"

Ibuki Mio was still in a state of uncertainty. Although she was a little surprised by the intimate state of Ichinose Honami and Hashima Hikaru holding hands, after all, the two were in the same class, and there were rumors that they were dating, so she did not react much.

"Well, I'm going to keep watching for a while. Ibuki-san, do you want to go back first?"

"Forget it, I'll stay here with you." Ibuki Mio observed Shiina's expression, sat back down beside him, and said with a smile, "How about we go have dinner together later?"

"it is good."

Shiina Hiyori nodded. She could feel Ibuki's concern for her, and a warm feeling flowed through her heart.

But the next moment, she heard the short-haired girl mumbling to herself.

"Do you think this guy Hashima is really dating Ichinose? He really made a fortune."

"No, Hashima-san is not dating Ichinose-san." Shiina shook his head and explained to Ibuki Mio seriously, "He's still single."

"how do you know?"

"Hashima-san told me that, and I believe it's the truth."

"..."

Chapter 139 The upcoming summer vacation

After leaving the library, the two returned to the student dormitory hand in hand. The girl's hand never let go along the way, so Hashima Hikaru had no choice but to let her do as she pleased.

After entering the room, Ichinose Honami stood in front of the stove and skillfully began to take off her apron, while Hashima Hikaru stood behind her ready to lend a hand at any time.

"Hashima-san, have you been reading books with Shiina-san often lately?"

Just as the boy reached out to tie the apron for Ichinose Honami, Hashima Hikaru finally waited for the other party to ask a question. Although she didn't say anything all the way, it didn't mean that the matter was over.

"It's okay. Shiina and I met by chance in the library. Later we found out that we both like to read mystery novels, so we became book friends."

Hashima Hikaru's tone was calm, and he skillfully tied the apron for the girl with a warm smile on his face.

"Is that so? That's quite a coincidence. It's not easy to find someone who shares the same interests as you at school."

Ichinose Honami turned on the fauce and began to wash her hands, feeling the comfortable touch of the water sliding across her palms, but there was no expression on the girl's face.

"It's just a coincidence. If Ichinose-san has any hobbies or interests, maybe he can find someone who shares the same interests." The boy's tone was very gentle, and he wanted to change the subject. What happened today was indeed an accident. Normally, Ichinose Honami's activities in the student union would last until around six or seven o'clock, and he and Shiina Hiyori would also disband before dinner, so they had never run into each other.

"I don't have any particular hobbies at the moment. After all, I have too many things to do and no time at all."

"Really? Well, if you have any interest, please let me know, Ichinose-san."

It seemed that Hikaru Hashima didn't take today's encounter seriously at all. She stood beside Ichinose Honami and washed her hands. Her expression and movements were quite natural, without a single flaw.

Staring at the boy's expression, Ichinose Honami did feel a little uncomfortable, but since he had already declared his sovereignty, there was no need to continue to hold on to it.

Only in this way can she show her magnanimity and make Hashima Hikaru trust her more.

The pink-haired girl silently convinced herself that he was just a book friend after all, so she just needed to pay more attention.

Ichinose Honami didn't think that the other party could threaten her relationship with Hashima Hikaru, so she quickly suppressed her dissatisfaction and the two began to cook dinner together.

In the following time, they all tacitly did not bring up the previous topic again, and the atmosphere between them remained extremely harmonious.

--------

In the following July, time passed very quickly. Since the final exams would be held at the end of the month, everyone in Class A returned to the previous group review mode.

Although Ichinose Honami still had student council matters to deal with, the members of their group decided to bend the rules for her and postponed their study time until after dinner so that the five of them could review together.

Because of this, the number of times these classmates appeared in Hashima Hikaru's dormitory began to increase again, and the boy had no choice but to shorten his operation time.

Hashima Hikaru's operating mode has become to rely mainly on mobile phones to communicate, including Sakura Airi and Shiina Hiyori, and the opportunity to meet has become once a week.

As for Kikyo Kushida, with the final exams approaching, she fully demonstrated the image of a class angel that she had worked hard to maintain, and was very active in organizing various study sessions in Class C.

With this high-sounding excuse, she could pester Horikita Suzune better, and would actively invite her to join the study group almost every day to tutor her classmates together.

Although Horikita Suzune was unwilling to get along with Kushida Kikyo, she had already made the decision to change herself, so when it came to helping everyone learn, she did her best.

So for a long time, Kushida Kikyo did not come to find Hashima Hikaru, which made the young man very relieved. After all, compared with the other three people, this guy's problem was the most troublesome.

Soon it was the end of the month and the day of the final exam.

"Good morning, Hashima-san."

"Good morning, Ichinose-san."

Hikaru Hashima greeted the pink-haired girl with a smile. They did not buy test papers for this final exam like they did last time. After all, after the midterm exam, everyone fully understood the rules and operation mode of the exam. After actively asking Hoshinomiya Chie about the scope of the exam and asking for some details, Class A organized a class meeting with the theme of a detailed review plan.

The knowledge points and exclusive difficult questions of various subjects are organized in a step-by-step manner, so that all students can face this exam more confidently. Without the test papers of the previous year, everyone can take the exam more perfectly.

"Let's work hard together today, classmates."

Before Mr. Hoshinomiya arrived, Hikaru Hashima stood on the podium and gave everyone a final pep talk: "Summer vacation is coming. Everyone has worked hard this month. I believe we can achieve even better results."

“Is everyone confident?”

"Have!"

The students responded in unison. After maintaining the ranking of Class A for several months, the students in the class have developed a more persistent belief in exams and scores. No one wants to be caught up again, so everyone has completed their learning tasks seriously in order to achieve better results in this exam.

Ten minutes later, Chie Hoshinomiya walked into the classroom with the test paper. After today's final exam, the specific scores will be announced next Monday. At that time, she will announce the specific plan for the summer cruise trip. There are many things she needs to explain to everyone.

"Well, the final exam starts now!"

The young female teacher distributed the test papers with a serious expression.

During the four months of the first semester, the class she taught maintained the A ranking for three months, so Xing Zhigong was very happy. Not only did she suppress that woman, but her salary also increased a lot, which was really killing two birds with one stone.
