"Well...if Kasuga-senpai likes it, I can buy it again~"
Zaijian Liuli asked happily, it was great to be recognized by others for what she had done.
"..." Kasuga Chinatsu shook her head slightly and wanted to say something, but no sound came out.
Her expression returned to its usual cold expression, and she read the library book again, but she stared at that page for a long time without turning the page.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the activity room fell silent.
Hayajian Liuli's hands were tightly placed on her knees, as if she was twisting her skirt out of the water, and the chair was only sitting a little.
She was a little worried that she had said the wrong thing, causing the cute and happy senior Kasuga to suddenly become cold.
Her eyes wandered around the small activity room, trying hard to find something to talk about, but she was afraid of the backlash, and her body became a little stiff.
"Um, meet my classmates soon..."
With a deep breath, Kasuga Chinatsu closed the book in her hand, but as soon as she and Hayami Ruri met their eyes, she turned aside awkwardly and said in a voice that only they could hear:
"Thank...thank you~"
"You can read the club's books...after all, after all, you are also...an official member."
Kasuga Chinatsu was a little clumsy in expressing her gratitude, and her cheeks turned redder than before.
"It's much better than that guy anyway!" She murmured again in a low voice.
Seeing her embarrassed look, Zao Jian Liuli finally let go of her worries and said with a slight smile on her face:
"So...Senior, can I come here after school?"
Kasuga Chinatsu nodded, her back also stiffened due to excessive tension, "Okay, okay~"
"That's great!"
Zao Jian Liuli finally let go of her hand happily, and then she realized that her palms were wet with sweat.
"Emmm..." She wanted to say something, but she couldn't find a topic. She was afraid that the topic she found was too superficial and would be disliked by senior Kasuga.
"Why hasn't Senior Kuriyama come back yet~" Zao saw Liuli holding her head as if she was troubled and sighed in her heart.
Kasuga Chinatsu tried her best to focus on the book, but when she heard Hayami's groaning voice, her eyes still couldn't help but glance at her.
However, she didn't know what to say to this somewhat slow and naturally stupid school girl. If she said something she didn't understand, she would be misunderstood as being pretentious.
"Why is that guy so slow to buy a drink?" She complained silently in her heart, turning the pages of the book louder than before.
A rapid knock on the door finally broke the somewhat awkward atmosphere in the activity room.
"Have a drink."
Kuriyama Mai smiled relaxedly, showing a row of neat teeth.
"Here, here's your 'don't bother'. This is the minister's iced coffee. This damn place is so remote. It takes so long to walk just to buy a drink. It makes me exhausted."
Kuriyama Mai didn't care at all about the awkward atmosphere in the activity room. He casually sat in the seat closest to the door and talked a lot to himself.
But the two beautiful girls let out a long sigh of relief.
"Thank you, senior~"
Only then did Zao Jian Liuli notice his angular jawline, the slight beads of sweat on his neck, and his profile that looked even more handsome in the sunset. It turned out that the senior was quite handsome too.
Her eyes couldn't help but sparkle.

[Your current heartbeat balance is 52 points]
When he saw the message that suddenly popped up in the system, he was so surprised that he bought a drink, and the school girl fell in love with me.
But his eyes still stayed on Kasuga Chinatsu, who was sipping coffee, and asked in a joking tone:
"Minister, why don't you consider moving to a place closer to the core area of the school?"
"Reject!" There was no room for negotiation in Kasuga Chinatsu's voice. She took a closer look at the playful Kuriyama Mai, and frowned and asked:
"Why didn't you buy yourself a drink?"
"I finished my Coke on the way. The spring sun is so bright that it almost makes me unable to open my eyes." Kuriyama Mai also pretended to cover his eyes with his hands.
"You smooth-talking guy." Kasuga Chinatsu stared at her fiercely, "You're lying again!"
Kuriyama Mai helplessly spread his hands and said with an aggrieved look:
"No way! Does the minister still want to see how many bottles of drinks are in my stomach? Woohoo~"
"Please put away your disgusting expression." Kasuga Chinatsu did not hide the disgust on her face, "Your teeth that have no traces of carbonated drinks have been exposed, hum!" Kasuga Chinatsu was so angry that her cheeks bulged.
"Oh, have you been discovered?" Kuriyama Mai smiled slightly, picked up the teacup on the table, and drank the rest of the tea in one gulp, "Actually, I prefer the tea you made to the drinks~"
"Don't you like hot tea? You are indeed a hypocrite!" Kasuga Chinatsu said rudely, holding her hands.
"So the temperature has cooled down just right now~ It's just..." Kuriyama Mai looked at the kettle that was still being kept warm with a regretful look on his face, "It's a pity that we only have this one cup this afternoon."
"Idiot!" Kasuga Chinatsu quickly looked away from him, her cheeks already feeling slightly hot.
"Idiot!! Idiot! Idiot~"
She kept cursing in her heart, but her head gradually lowered, but she suddenly remembered something, turned her head, and pushed a small box towards Kuriyama Mai.
"Hey~ Good morning, classmate... I sent you the donuts."
Kuriyama Mai picked it up and swallowed it wholeheartedly. Although he didn't really like the greasy chocolate shell, the soft texture still made people feel good about it.
"It's delicious~" He smiled at Hayami Ruri, "Thank you!"
Kasuga Chinatsu glanced at him secretly, but as soon as their eyes met, she immediately moved her eyes back to the book.
Seeing Liuli looking around blankly, she thought to herself, it would be great if one day she could chat with them so casually.
Seeing that Hayao Ruri was a little outside the club atmosphere, Kuriyama Mai said to her:
"Meet your classmates early, don't put too much pressure on yourself because of this 'god of study'. When there are no other entrustments in the future, she will read her extracurricular books and we will do our homework."
He winked at Hayami again, "If you don't understand, just ask her. Maybe she can explain it better than the teacher."
Although the learning ability may be improved in the [Mall] in the future, Kuriyama Mai still enjoys the feeling of doing homework together after school. The classmates ask each other questions again, which is like returning to the high school days in the previous life.
And now it doesn’t matter which university I go to, I just enjoy the wonderful process.
"Is it really possible?" Zaijian Liuli's face was filled with disbelief.
"Of course. After you integrate into us better, it will be easier for you to make friends outside." He raised his eyebrows in the direction of Kasuga Chinatsu, "Isn't this arrangement right, Mr. Buchou?"
After a while, she slowly raised her head, first with a somewhat embarrassed expression, then glared at Kuriyama Mai with displeasure, and finally smiled lightly at Hayami Ruri:
"If you have any questions about your classmates' homework, just ask me~"
"Thank you, senior, I will work hard!"
Hayajian Liuli pursed her lips and nodded firmly, her face seeming to reveal the determination of a girl with vitality.
Only then did Kuriyama Mai notice that the time was almost half past five, and said quickly:
"I'm going back to cooking first. That's it for today's club activities. See you all tomorrow~"
After saying that, he packed up his schoolbag quickly and disappeared from the sight of the two of them.
Kasuga Chinatsu watched him leave. When her eyes returned to the library book, she couldn't read a single word.
She had no choice but to quickly put the library book into her schoolbag, glanced at Hayami Ruri who was staring blankly at the door, and then she mustered up the courage to say:
"I'm also... going back first, and then... goodbye~"
Hayao Jian Liuli only thought that the senior was busy going home and cooking instead of going out to fight. It seemed that he was not as fierce as he looked on the outside, and was even a little gentle.
The girl couldn't help but smile. She was in a person's activity room.
