In the end, Yinglili still couldn't escape the fate of tutoring.
"It's already great, great progress!" Hojo Kyosuke happily praised.
"Really?"
Looking at the big red check mark (error) on the exercise question, Yinglili couldn't believe it.
"Really! Although you still didn't do it right, you have perfectly avoided the wrong way last time. It can be seen that you have been thinking hard!"
Hojo Kyosuke categorically affirmed:
"You can't just see the mistakes, Ying Lili, learning is for progress, those things are what you should pay attention to! Do you really think that these mathematical knowledge will play a role in your future life? No! Most of them Ordinary people will never use them in their lives, so why should we learn it? It is to cultivate logical thinking and a rational way of thinking. And Yinglili, you have already done this now!
As long as you continue along your current thinking, you are not far away from mastering the solutions to this type of problem! Shall we do it again? "
"Um!"
The girl nodded vigorously, her mood of being tired of studying was at an all-time low.
"Ah... I seem to have written this word incorrectly several times in a row..."
The golden ponytail that had been untied fell down.
"Si Guoyi! You can actually remember it even after making mistakes several times. Aren't you very good at learning, Eiri-ri! No, I have to tell Aunt Sayuri about this immediately. This word will be used as the lucky word of the club from now on. !”
As he spoke, Hojo Kyosuke immediately took out his phone and quickly moved the screen to edit the email.
"Alas! Yada! I obviously didn't remember it, how embarrassing it is!"
Eiri immediately stood up and tried to grab the random guy across the table, but to no avail. Megumi Kato, who was sitting next to her, smiled and pulled her arm.
"This is really important. Just like me and Hui, we can never remember how many times we made a mistake! And since we can remember how many times we made a mistake, is it still far from fully mastering the word? This is exhaustive. The learning method is to go through all the mistakes. Whenever you encounter the same mistake in the future, you will immediately understand it!" Hojo Kyousuke clicked to send, his tone was encouraging.
"Really?"
Eiri turned to "good student" Kato Megumi for confirmation, and received an affirmative answer. Although Hui's expression was still calm and emotionless, Eirili could clearly read her admiration for herself!
Of course this is true, who could be wrong so many times with a word that only has six letters in total!
In short, the girl's dislike of studying was further eliminated.
Finally, after getting the simplest algebra question wrong three times in a row, Yinglili's defenses were on the verge of collapse again.
"Woo... Wuwu... Wuwu... Kyosuke has already said it three times, but when he does it, he always doubts whether he is doing it right. He just thinks about it and does it wrong. Isn't this learning completely in vain? !”
Sobbing, the girl took the green woolen hat and wiped her tears.
The calmness and calmness on Kato Megumi's face seemed to be unsustainable. She really didn't expect that "Miss Toyosaki"'s learning situation would be so bad. From this point of view, how much effort did she put in to maintain her grades in the middle of the grade?
"Yinglili! I'm going to criticize you!"
Hojo Kyosuke's always bright smile suddenly turned serious.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."
The girl's dislike of studying was at an all-time high. If she hadn't known that the person across from her who kept whispering to her about the topic was the one who had the hardest time, she would have shouted "I don't want to study anymore!"
"That's not the case!"
Hojo Kyousuke slapped the automatic pen on the table. It was stationery with his own laser signature...
"You who cry because you get a math problem wrong are very gentle and amazing in my eyes."
"It's not that I made a mistake on a math question, I made a mistake on a math question three times in a row. I'm not gentle, I'm a big idiot! Wuwuwu..." Yinglili still cried.
Megumi Kato subconsciously wanted to nod. This statement really made people agree. If it were in school, the math teacher would have collapsed, and one of the students and the teacher would definitely need psychological counseling. But now... the girl looked up at the boy opposite, expecting what he would say again.
"If a question is solved easily, how will the person who asked the question feel about it? He will think that he will fall into self-doubt and feel that his level is only this level. Have you? The purpose of asking this question is to test the students' mastery of relevant knowledge and to deepen their memory. He will be happy to see the students fall into deep thinking because he knows that the students really learned from this question. Learned knowledge.”
Hojo Kyousuke whispered, his tone gentle and persuasive.
The two female students listened very attentively, because all the questions they answered were composed by Hojo Kyosuke himself. He was the one who asked the question, and they were the students.
Yinglili's tears gradually stopped, but she was still sobbing.
"I feel that I must treat this question carefully so as not to let the questioner's thoughts go to waste. Gentle people do have such thoughts, and then they will become like you, Yinglili. I can completely understand that this is not the case. It’s not that you’re too stupid, it’s that your gentleness makes you think too much.”
The corners of Hojo Kyosuke's mouth curved slightly, and he looked at the idiot opposite him with great satisfaction.
"Is it really?"
Yinglili asked hesitantly, her big eyes full of confusion under her long eyelashes still stained with tears.
"That's right, Eiriri, you are always like this, saying tough words and doing gentle things." Hojo Kyosuke immediately confirmed.
"But, only if you solve this problem easily, I can come up with more problems for you to solve, so that my sense of accomplishment as a teacher will be more satisfying." He added.
"So if I just have to be a little gentler, I can get this question right right away?"
"necessary!"
After receiving the assurance from the person she trusted, Yingli Li raised her fighting spirit, picked up her hat and wiped her face carelessly, pressed the mechanical pencil to squeeze out a piece of lead, and went into battle again.
call--
Hojo Kyousuke exhaled heavily. If he hadn't been a writer and a cartoonist, he would have been stumped by this idiot Eri.
Snapped--
The mechanical pencil with Hojo Kyousuke's name written on it was slapped hard on the table.
"yeah!!"
Eiriri picked up the manuscript paper, held it with both hands, and unfolded it in front of Hojo Kyosuke.
"Kyosuke Kyousuke! This time, this time it's right!" The girl's clear voice was full of excitement and pride.
"Yeah! One hundred percent!" Hojo Kyosuke's eyebrows were filled with a smile.
"Humph! Sure enough! It's just a math problem. As long as someone takes back his gentleness and treats him a little roughly, he will immediately become as well-behaved as a puppy!"
Yinglili regained her proud look:
"Where are the other questions! Bring them up quickly, I will bully them severely! Hahahahahaha~~"
Then she even let out three laughs that she didn't know where she learned from, and you could still see the pitiful look when she collapsed and yelled that she was a fool.
"Yeah, don't worry, there are many, many more here!" Hojo Kyousuke's smile was also brilliant. He has made mistakes three times. If he can continue to make mistakes, he will be considered a genius of another kind.
Eiriri spins the pen handsomely. The stationery launched by Kyosuke after winning the Grand Prize this time is all made of metal. Although it will be a bit tiring to write for a long time, it feels great to play with!
"Where's Si Guoyi, Yinglili." A brisk voice came from the side.
"scare!!"
Eiri, who was immersed in the joy of being praised by Hojo Kyosuke and successfully solving the sexy math problem, was suddenly startled:
"Me, Megumi, are you still there?!"
The girl's voice was filled with fright and disbelief.
"Ah, yes, I have been listening to Kyosuke-kun's teaching and Eiriri's learning remarks."
Kato Megumi smiled slightly.
Teaching...Learning Remarks...
Eiri, who has always been thin-skinned, immediately blushed when she heard this. Unfortunately, she completely forgot about Kei, and just listened to Kyousuke's compliments and was happy...
Ah... so shameful...
It's not like Yinglili is really brainless, how could she not know that someone's words are extremely exaggerated. Only one of the ten sentences is a serious summary of my own mistakes, and the other nine sentences are all about praising myself in various ways.
In the past, when the two of them were studying alone, they only felt that the chores teaching method was the most suitable for them. This would be heard by outsiders, which instantly made the girl so embarrassed that she just wanted to hide in this woolen hat immediately.
"Woooo..."
She was so embarrassed that she sobbed softly again, then looked at the girl next to her with pouted lips and broken tears, and whispered in a sad tone:
"I'm sorry, Hui, for letting you see such an unseemly side..."
Eiriri still has a lot of idol baggage, and seeing her look so childish made her want to kill Hojo Kyousuke.
"Hmm~"
Kato Megumi shook his head, and the smile on his face actually showed a bit of doting similar to that of Hojo Kyosuke:
"That's not the case at all, but Yinglili, you are really full of emotions." She said with some emotion.
Although I have seen a completely different side of Yinglili from her gorgeous appearance, I never expected that she would cry in sadness because she couldn't solve a problem, and that she would be as happy as a puppy because she solved a problem.
Because if it were the eldest lady Ying Lili, she would probably just knock her head, stick out her little tongue, and put on a cute and playful expression, showing that she really has no academic acumen. Putting such a person who is not good at studying in a girl's circle is not only not a negative point, but also makes other people think that she is easier to get along with.
If it were Eiri-ri, a loser, she would have unreasonably pushed aside all the exercises and hid them, and started watching cartoons like a dead pig that was not afraid of being scalded by boiling water.
"Because, because..."
Eiriri looked even more embarrassed after being praised like this. Her eyes drifted uncontrollably to Hojo Kyosuke on the opposite side, and then she turned her face sharply towards the glass window, pouting her cartoon chick lips:
"Because the regular exams are coming soon. If you don't do well, you have to make up for it. My time is precious and I don't have time to waste it on that kind of thing!"
Yes, it's all because of that person.
The smile on Kato Megumi's face did not diminish, and her eyes were as bright as peach blossoms.
Besides Hojo Kyosuke, who else can do this for Eiri? Who else could understand her so well?
"Ah, okay, start studying quickly and don't get distracted, Megumi!"
Yingli yelled. She didn't know why, she just felt that Hui's eyes seemed to read all her thoughts.
"Hmm~~" Hui nodded slightly.
Unknowingly, Yinglili, who was dizzy when she saw the numbers at first, started clamoring to step on more small questions and train her carefully.
Although the addition of Ying Lili was a serious drag on the study progress, it was undeniable that the atmosphere and laughter of the study meeting were much greater than at the beginning.
At some point, the three people's seats changed from Hojo Kyosuke sitting on one side with two girls sitting opposite him, to three people sitting in a row, with Eiri and Megumi sandwiching him in the middle.
"Will it be a bit crowded?" This is Hui's question.
"It's easier to study this way!" This was Yinglili's answer.
This is all for learning! When it was cold last year, she and Kyousuke would get into the kotatsu to learn.
…
Ah~~I learned a lot of little things today that deserve a beating. It's all Kyousuke's fault. If it weren't for the fact that he worked so hard to explain, my gentle self wouldn't have solved it so violently!
Ying Lili let out a long sigh, then slumped down on the sofa, her hands hanging down weakly.
Although she is very powerful, Kyousuke has too many questions and keeps bringing them out. No matter how hard she tries, she can't accept so many! However, seeing that Megumi beside her was still solving the questions asked by Kyousuke, the girl still had to grit her teeth and persist. No matter what, I can't lose to Kei!
"Now when I go to your house again, I finally feel a little more confident when Aunt Sayuri scolds me."
Hojo Kyousuke wiped a drop of sweat from his forehead. Eiriri's physical strength was different from the past under his long-term training. He was able to persist in two hours of tutoring. Although Yue shared most of the time, it was just two people. When they met, Yinglili had already stuck out her tongue and pretended to be dead and never wanted to learn again. For her, studying is a hundred times more painful than running.
"Humph, that's not necessarily the case. If mom sees that you are so tired from just after-school tutoring, she will wonder if you are spending your time on other messy things and wasting your exercise."
Yinglili wrinkled her little nose and said.
Um?
Hojo Kyosuke was stunned. Eiri was not very good at yin and yang, so he could sense the meaning of her words as soon as she spoke.
"Let's study together the day after tomorrow, Ying Lili? You can come to my house then and I will prepare snacks."
Kato Megumi invited with a smile. She didn't ask Hojo Kyousuke because she knew that the other party had a lot going on during the previous chat.
"Eh?"
Eirili subconsciously wanted to refuse. She had just finished a hearty battle and her mood was at an all-time high. How could she accept the invitation to fight, not to mention that Kyousuke was not here yet.
Hmm... Just take the game with you when the time comes, and it will be beneficial to cultivate it well.
After thinking about it, Eiriri agreed. Anyway, it would be impossible to study without Kyosuke around!
The sun at the end of April has gradually warmed up. Even at dusk, it is still a bit warm. The three people walking out of the restaurant did not feel any discomfort due to the temperature.
"Then see you next time, bye, Kyousuke-kun, bye Eiri~~"
Kato Megumi waved with a smile. In comparison, her schoolbag was a lot heavier. It was full of study materials given by Hojo Kyosuke.
"Yeah~~See you tomorrow, Hui."
Ying Lili waved happily, without showing the aggressive look she had when she first arrived, and there was still a bit of reluctance on her face. It's even a pity that Sakura is not here, otherwise she would have directly invited Kei to live at home. Just use the excuse of continuing to study at night to lie to her!
Really, although I didn’t succeed in catching Kyosuke’s pigtails today and was forced to study for so long, I’m still very happy~~
Alas~ in the end it was really just learning, which was really an unfair favor.
Thoughts surged in the girl's heart.
"Bye, Megumi. If you have any questions, call me anytime. You're welcome to make a video call. I'm basically free in the evening." Hojo Kyosuke smiled and waved.
"Hmm~~" Hui smiled and nodded gently, then turned and walked towards her home.
Almost at the moment Hui turned around, an evil voice sounded.
"Hello!"
"Huh? What's wrong?"
Hojo Kyousuke looked at Eiri who was leaning on him in confusion. This guy seemed to have consumed all his energy due to studying, and he was supporting himself when he walked out of the restaurant.
"Why are you making a video call at night?" Ying Lili raised her little face and bared her little tiger teeth and asked in a bad tone.
"Because I have to go to school during the day." Hojo Kyosuke said matter-of-factly.
"Then why don't you make a video call with me!"
"Because there are only two walls separating us..."
"I think you just want to leave me and take Hui quietly to progress!"
"..."
Seeing the girl's angry look, Hojo Kyousuke smiled in his heart and shook his body gently, causing her to stagger:
"Okay, okay, I understand, I'll take you with me to start the video together."
"That's pretty much it!"
Yinglili finally nodded with satisfaction.
Although she seemed to be so oppressed by Hojo Kyosuke's problems that she even had to lean on him when walking, the girl stubbornly refused the offer of taking a taxi because it was too expensive. So the two of them walked to the station clinging to each other.
The twilight is gentle, and the sky and the earth blend into a blur of blue.
Hojo Kyosuke thought that the reason why dusk is called the devil's hour is probably because tourists go home at this time.
When walking towards the house, I can't help but miss my loved ones at home and those who don't know where they are.
And just like him, with the girl clinging to him in his arms, she seemed to be pulled into an unknown realm by the blue dusk.
The street lights turned on one after another. Hojo Kyosuke felt something and was about to speak, when he heard a clear voice:
"Don't move! Your shadow has been stepped on by me!" (End of Chapter)
