Chapter 39: 36. Unexpectedly getting along well... no, never mind.

By the time midday break rolled around, the news had already spread.

The three from the Human Observation Department were called over by their advisor teacher, Xiaoquan Aonai.

This time, they didn’t meet in the office but in a reception room specifically designated for conversations. Normally, it’s where teachers and students have one-on-one interactions involving life, study, and future education goals.

Dubian Che guessed that Xiaoquan Aonai chose this place on purpose, fearing he would say something like "Teacher, you’re my favorite" in front of other teachers again.

The three sat in a row, face to face with Xiaoquan Aonai. Dubian Che sat away from the other two, almost in the corner.

Not going to lie, it’s quite reassuring.

"Can you tell the teacher what happened?" Xiaoquan Aonai asked.

Dubian Che and Jiutiao Meijie didn’t speak, letting Minister Kiyono Lin recount the morning’s events.

After listening, Xiaoquan Aonai revealed a bitter smile and looked at Dubian Che.

"Dubian, didn’t you tell me that the bet was over the position of minister of the Human Observation Department? How has it turned into anything goes now?"

"Mr. Xiaoquan, you should ask the news department and the Literary Department about this. Oh, and add the stubborn Minister Kiyono and Miss Jiutiao Meijie to that list," Dubian Che said indifferently, shrugging his shoulders.

Xiaoquan Aonai turned to Kiyono Lin and Jiutiao Meijie.

Kiyono Lin responded, "Please don’t worry, Teacher, we won’t lose."

"A rabble of no accounts, I could clean them up with my underlings, not to mention if I take action myself," Jiutiao Meijie confidently stated, crossing her legs, her missy disposition in full display.

Underlings? He’s not talking about me, is he?... Dubian Che wondered to himself.

"This... isn’t about whether you win or lose," an exasperated Xiaoquan Aonai patiently advised. "The school supports students competing academically, but a bet with the content ’anything goes’ is unacceptable."

"I agree," Dubian Che immediately responded.

Kiyono Lin turned away, her smile sincere and gentle: "Mr. Dubian, you’re my club member, I will protect you. After we win First Place, I won’t make you do anything difficult."

Dubian Che admitted Kiyono Lin was cute, just like no one could deny his handsomeness, but...

"Do you think I disagreed with ’anything goes’ to guard against whom?" He spoke irritably.

"Ah, my," Kiyono Lin rested her chin in her hand and feigned surprise extravagantly: "I’ve been so generous to you, and you’re actually guarding against me?"

"Generosity... Thanks," Dubian Che replied.

"Don’t mention it," Kiyono Lin said with a radiant smile, "Protecting my weaker club members is what I, as a strong person and minister, should do."

Dubian Che had nothing to say; he had enough of the Tokyo misses’ antics.

"Dubian," Miss Jiutiao Meijie glanced sideways with a murderous look, "If you dare to flirt and argue with that woman in front of me again, I’ll kill you."

"Flirt and argue? Huh?" Dubian Che looked toward Kiyono Lin.

Kiyono Lin crossed her arms and silently smiled.

"Hey, say something! Aren’t you one who never lies?!"

Kiyono Lin remained mute.

Damn it! This woman is too cunning!

Dubian Che had no choice but to turn to Xiaoquan Aonai, "Teacher, you’re an observer, you must have seen everything clearly, right?"

But Xiaoquan Aonai was very angry, and she scolded, "Dubian, what have I told you! You must be faithful in love! How could you be of two minds about both of them... like that!"

"Huh?"

"And you’re talking about the news department? I think your problem is your mentality, thinking of playing both sides, aren’t you? Write me a thousand-word reflection!"

"Teacher!" Dubian Che stood up, "Minister Kiyono, Miss Jiutiao, you two say something!"

Jiutiao Meijie snorted with a laugh, and the ever-truthful Minister Kiyono Lin kept her silence.

"Still trying to argue, still deceiving the teacher, Dubian, I’m very disappointed in you! Five thousand words!"

Those two women! Just you wait!... This time, Dubian Che truly set First Place as his target!

Although he didn’t have a uniform fetish, he would make these two women wear bunny suits on Mondays, pink nurse outfits on Tuesdays, maid costumes on Wednesdays, police uniforms on Thursdays, sailor outfits on Fridays.

They wouldn’t get any rest on Saturdays or Sundays either; they had to wear Lolita and shrine maiden outfits and send him selfies...

’Wait, shrine maiden outfit selfies...’ Dubian Che intertwined his fingers and placed them on his nose bridge, ’First Place, I, Dubian, will take it!’

After leaving the meeting room, Dubian Che’s mood would have been great if not for the five-thousand-word reflection he had to write.

It had nothing to do with whether to conform to the school uniform or not—that sort of thing was completely trivial; the main point was that this was a rare, perfectly legitimate opportunity to take revenge on two girls.

Jiutiao Meijie returned to the classroom.

For the sake of the uniform, no, for the sake of revenge, Dubian Che decided to go to the club room and study quietly.

Kiyono Lin naturally also headed to the club room, as it had always been her place of respite during lunch breaks.

"For someone who never lies, Ms. Kiyono, your actions just now were no different from lying, right?" Dubian Che said sarcastically as they walked.

"Did I lie?" Kiyono Lin tilted her head, a face full of confusion. After seeing Dubian Che’s angry expression, she laughed happily, "I just suddenly didn’t feel like talking, that’s all."

"...You’re too bad."

As if receiving a high compliment, Kiyono Lin nodded in satisfaction, "A woman has to be bad for a man to love her, after ’playing hard to get’, this is the fourth method to make you fall in love with me."

What were the two in between... If he asked outright, he would certainly invite more mockery.

Dubian Che changed his tune, "I like gentle and considerate girls, if you want me to fall in love with you, please work in that direction."

"No, Mr. Dubian, I intend to twist your will and make you fall in love with a me who is neither gentle nor considerate," Kiyono Lin said, then stared at Dubian Che and asked with a smile, "Am I bad enough?"

"I admit you’re very charming, but I’m not the type to value appearance that much; if your personality isn’t good, then none of it matters."

"Don’t be too confident in yourself, Mr. Dubian. Love is not governed by willpower; it’s like a mental illness. It’s not about what you want to do, but what it makes you do."

"If that’s the case, does that mean, Ms. Kiyono, that there might come a day when you too will uncontrollably fall in love with me?"

Kiyono Lin stopped walking, her hand resting under her immaculate chin, deep in thought.

Dubian Che also stopped and maliciously awaited her response, "You wouldn’t lie, right?"

Kiyono Lin’s face turned cold, reverting to the expression she had when they first met, her shiny, black hair swayed as she walked silently up to the elevated corridor of the club building.

"Hey, are you tacitly agreeing?" Dubian Che followed, mocking.

"I don’t want to talk right now."

"So you’re admitting it."

"Is your Mandarin bad, or is there a problem with your ears? I said it’s just that I don’t want to talk right now," Kiyono Lin quickened her pace.

"Falling in love with me isn’t anything shameful. I, Dubian, am smart and never slack off. I do calisthenics and swim every day, I’ve recently mastered conversational English and plan to learn Spanish next. I’m a young man on the rise, destined for greatness in the future."

In the center of the elevated corridor, Kiyono Lin stopped again, turned her head to look at Dubian Che, who was praising himself.

"Uncontrollably liking you in the future—I admit there’s a possibility, as I am an honest person and won’t deny anything in the future. But, as for my current genuine thoughts, only a pre-evolutionary female ape would fall for you."

That sentence sounded familiar... Dubian Che, with his good memory, recalled for a moment where he had heard it.

The day Jiutiao Mei joined the Human Observation Department, he had gone to report to the teacher’s office, where Akiko, who was eating snacks, asked him if he liked Kiyono or Jiutiao. At the time, he had thought the same thing:

Only a pre-evolutionary male ape would be so desperate to fall for them.

"Ms. Kiyono, maybe we unexpectedly get along well," Dubian Che said sincerely.

Kiyono Lin glanced at him with disdain and turned away.

"...I take back what I just said," Dubian Che muttered, regardless of whether she heard him or not.

Anyway, the more he interacted with these two women, the stronger his resolve to come out on top became!

’Dressed as a maid to serve me tea, in a police uniform handcuffed herself, nurse outfits must have short hemlines, and shrine maiden outfits should have slits!’

As Dubian Che thought of ways to get revenge on the two of them, he deliberately slowed his steps, strolling towards the club room.

There were many people heading to the club building at noon, some to study and others to seize the lunch break for club activities because they had to study after school.

The passing crowd, seeing him, whispered among themselves.

Dubian Che even heard rumors about him playing both sides.

He had to quicken his pace to catch up to Kiyono Lin.

As the two walked side by side, the whispers around them became bold and loud, completely indifferent to the fact that the people being talked about could hear them.

Dubian Che ignored the occasional disdainful glances from Kiyono Lin; at that moment, getting her to help share the heat was what mattered most.
