Chương 34: Page 34

'While occasional indulgence is nice, everyday life is definitely the best!'

After thinking for a moment, Xiangsheng Youzi's eyes suddenly lit up. He stretched his index finger toward his chest, smiled and chuckled.

"Mio Alien... something... hehe."

"Hey, what the hell!"

"Snapped!"

"Ouch (that hurts)... Mio-chan is so violent..."

"Yuko is so strange, and what is Mio Alien? Don't just use other people's names to assume they're an alien race!"

"Hey... it sounds really good."

"Thank you... Did you think I would say that, you idiot Yuko!"

"What? All you do is call others idiots. Mio-chan likes Eri too... Ugh!"

Seeing Naganohara Mio hurriedly covering Yuko's mouth, her face flushed and her eyes darting around, she couldn't help but turn around to see if she had heard.

Jiang Yuan smiled and didn't hide her feelings; if she liked someone, she liked them!

"Haha, I'm so happy to hear Yuko say that. I like Mio and Yuko a lot too."

"Hmm..." x2 As soon as Jiang Yuan finished speaking, Mio, whose body suddenly felt weak, couldn't help but loosen her grip on Yuko's hand.

My cheeks started to feel hot.

'Which one is Jiangyuan-chan (kun) referring to...? I'm so curious...'

Looking at Mio and Yuko, whose cute little faces were flushed, Jiang Yuan ignored the surprised looks from the other students in the class.

He doesn't care what others think of his interactions with the girl he likes.

He reached out and ruffled Yuko and Mio's little heads.

The soft strands of hair brushed against my fingers, carrying a faint, pleasant fragrance—it felt so comforting.

Feeling the warm hand on their heads, Yuko and Mio, despite their hearts pounding like deer, couldn't help but squint their eyes in comfort.

'Jiangyuan-chan (Kami)'s head pat feels so good...'

Seeing the two girls' adorable rubbing against each other like kittens, Jiang Yuan smiled gently and then removed her hand after a while.

'I'm getting addicted to touching myself...'

"Jiangyuan-chan (kun)..."

Feeling their minds suddenly go blank, Yuko and Mio felt a mix of shyness and disappointment.

But she was too shy to ask Jiang Yuan to continue touching her head.

Wouldn't that make her a crazy woman?

Even the optimistic and energetic Yuko is ultimately a girl who gets shy in front of the boy she likes.

Jiang Yuan smiled and turned to look at Mizukami Mai, who, despite having interacted with him much more over the past two months, always managed to elicit a response that made him exclaim, "As expected of the great Mai!"

As usual, Ma Shen had her eyes half-open, her fair and lovely face calm, and she was carefully reading a book of unknown type in her hand.

He didn't seem to care much about his interaction with the two women.

but……

Is it really?

........................

P. S.: New author, new book, please give me some flowers and votes!

but……

Is that really the case?

Looking at the upside-down text in the book in Ma Shen's hand, and the pages that hadn't been turned since they started chatting, Jiang Yuan felt a surge of affection for the girl in front of him.

Mai's concerns are always reflected in things that ordinary people rarely pay attention to, and are quite strange.

Mai Mizukami is using her own unique way to remind the boy to pay more attention to her.

Even as a young girl, Mai Mizukami cares about the boy who pays attention to the details of her life, makes her laugh, respects her hobbies, and likes her.

"What are Mai's thoughts on that incident?"

As soon as Jiang Yuan finished speaking, it was almost visible to the naked eye.

Under Jiang Yuan's careful observation, she noticed a faint glimmer in Mai's cute and calm eyes. Her small lips curved into a slight smile.

The boy she cared about had always cared about her too, and he rediscovered her unique way of showing his care.

'It seems... I really have fallen for Jiang Yuan.'

"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have gained favor with Mizukami Mai. Favorability value +1, current favorability value 79!"

Before Jiang Yuan could even feel excited, he found himself once again receiving the same affection from the girl he loved.

Turning her head, Mai Mizukami's cute voice, which seemed to rise slightly, rang out as calmly as usual, almost blankly.

"That big pit."

She ignored Mio and Yuko, who were watching her warily, having already discovered her feelings.

At this moment, Mai Mizukami just wanted the boy's gaze to linger on her a little longer.

"It is the ability of a hero."

With only half an eye open and a calm expression, Mai said this.

"Chirp (dumb) —"

'What could be the reason...' x2 The familiar Hiyori face involuntarily appeared on Yuko and Mio's faces again.

His intense coolness and incomprehensible words and actions are very much in Mai's style.

However, even if their opponent is Mai, they will never admit defeat!

Having made up my mind, I'm brimming with fighting spirit!

"Maybe Mai is right."

'After all, the hero is human, and so am I; what I used was indeed my ability. Indeed, Mai-sama is still Mai-sama!'

Unlike others, he wasn't amused by her; the boy simply enjoyed and tolerated the girl's fun and adorable personality.

The little sprout that had never stirred in Mai's heart before the boy's arrival had grown stronger.

"Jiang Yuan is a hero."

Following her heart, Mai uttered words that she herself did not know what she meant, yet which made the boy freeze in shock.

'Perhaps… Jiang Yuan really is like a hero…'

The surging, hazy emotions expressed to Mizukami Mai in this way.

'Phew, as expected of the God of Pain! Even a casual remark came true. Is this what "everyday" Kami is like?'

…………

"Jingle Bell!"

"Everyone, class is starting!"

Suddenly, the school bell rang.

A familiar, slightly childlike, soft and cute voice came through.

As I walked into the classroom, Izumi Sakurai was delighted to see everyone obediently returning to their seats.

'I'm getting closer and closer to my ideal of becoming a teacher.'

'But……'

Feel the gentle gaze that makes my body involuntarily soften slightly.

She looked at Jiang Yuan with the same gentle gaze he always gave her.

Sakurai Izumi couldn't help but think of the past two months, from when they first met to how he had been subtly and overtly helping her build good relationships with her classmates.

At the same time, some embarrassing incidents occurred that made her blush and her heart race.

He held her hand under the pretext of helping her with homework, brewed her some really delicious tea, praised her for being cute, and liked to pat her head, all while making up excuses that it was to build a good relationship with her...

Various events flashed through my heart, which had become shy without me even realizing it.

'As expected, does Jiang Yuan really like...?'

As if she had thought of something, Sakurai Izumi blushed and immediately covered her face with her textbook, hiding her charming blush like an apple.

Even if Sakurai Izumi had never been in a relationship, she would have noticed it by now, no matter how slow she was to tell.

'But I'm a teacher, and Jiang Yuan is my student. I can't accept Jiang Yuan's...'

Sakurai Izumi's thoughts became increasingly complicated. She secretly pulled down the notebook, revealing her lovely eyes filled with shyness and confusion.

He was still the same, gentle yet with a kind of affection that made her incredibly shy.

But the more this happened, the more distressed Izumi Sakurai felt.

She had never been in a relationship, and had never even held a boy's hand.

However, Jiang Yuan's proactive encouragement and help over the past two months, along with the undisguised affection in his eyes, made her realize that her student liked her.

It includes both students' affection for their teachers and romantic feelings between men and women.

Therefore, Sakurai Izumi was in turmoil. If she had no feelings at all, it would have been fine, but the faint, hazy flutter that had risen in her heart at some unknown time made it impossible for her to deceive herself.

She actually had feelings for one of her students.

Confused, she wanted to avoid the boy, unable to bear seeing the affection in his eyes that made her face burn.

but…………

There's no escaping it.

No matter how she tried to avoid the boy, he would always find her immediately, make her delicious tea, help her with her homework, and let her taste the dishes he cooked...

The boy was gently entering her heart, a place that had never been entered by anyone before.

For more than two months, it has been like this.

Therefore, Sakurai Izumi had very mixed feelings.

She wanted to meet the boy's expectations, and she didn't care about the difference in status or income.

The cute and kind-hearted girl never cared about the boy she already had feelings for.

but……

He was her teacher, her elder, and Jiang Yuan was her student. She was twenty-four years old, while Jiang Yuan was only seventeen.

She can't act like a child.

If they fall in love, it will be a teacher-student relationship, which will be condemned by society.

Moreover, there was a seven-year age gap between them, and she knew that the affection in the boy's eyes told her that he didn't care about the age difference.

But she couldn't ruin the young man's youth...

The more Sakurai Izumi thought about it, the more complicated and distressed she felt, and she suddenly didn't know what to do.

'If I were Mr. Nakamura, what would I do in this situation...?'

Without thinking, Sakurai Izumi thought of that female teacher who was very clever and had great inventions.

Unlike her, who panics and doesn't know what to do when something happens, if it weren't for Jiang Yuanjun helping her...

Suddenly, Sakurai Izumi thought of Jiang Yuan again, and her shyness increased even more.

'Jiang Yuanjun is appearing more and more often...'
