Tokyo Girlfriend Guide

Chapter 956 Hui longs to be praised

Toshima Ward

As one of Tokyo's 23 special wards, its livability ranks among the top 20 in the entire Tokyo metropolis. It is also a ward with district trees and district flowers, which is more advantageous than other wards.

Private Toyonosaki Academy

For a private school that uses a free and open school spirit as its main selling point, this is natural. After all, the school was established too recently, and it cannot showcase its heritage like Dongcheng does, so it can only be free and open.

The school pays great attention to the all-round and diversified development of students, and the club activities are very well developed. There is not only the talented painter Ms. Sawamura Spencer Eriri who participated in the Tokyo Youth Exhibition and won the award in her first year of high school, but also the talented girl Kasumigaoka Utaha who can win the college drama competition with her casual scripts.

This year, there is a fashion designer named Naoka Ueno who can be featured in American Vogue magazine. How good will this year's annual report be? Principal Toyonosaki would wake up laughing just thinking about it. It is simply like a dream.

If I have to say anything I regret, it would probably be that man.

Kyosuke! Kyosuke! Wuwuwu, my Kyosuke——my proudest Kyosuke!! Why did you abandon me? I can have everything that Sobu High School has!!

As long as you come to my school, I will do anything!

On the sixth floor of the main teaching building, Hirate Daisuke looked at the students pouring in from the school gate below, laughing and crying at the same time, seeming both sad and happy.

The assistant principal stood behind and opened and closed his mouth several times. He didn't want to persuade the principal to take care of himself, but wanted the principal to join the drama club. It would be a pity if he didn't act in a drama with such excellent emotional expression ability. Plus, Kasumigaoka-san's script might win an Oscar.

It was only half past seven and the Hojo family was still enjoying their breakfast leisurely at home, but the principal had already come to work. It was so tearful.

In fact, as the principal of a private school, Hirate Daisuke doesn't need to work so hard. The reason why he came so early today was because of that man.

As the principal, he knew much more than the average person. For example, the two princesses in the school lived in Hojo Kyosuke's house, Hojo Kyosuke would occasionally send Miss Spencer to school, and...

Today he just wanted to try his luck and see if the man would send Miss Spencer to school again. After all, as far as he knew, the art genius was actually a poor student, and not the kind of poor student who gave up, but the kind who had the will but not the ability.

This group is the most pitiful. They are not like the top students who can easily get good grades and so laugh happily every day, nor are they like the poor students who don't care at all and so are also happy.

This kind of arrogant poor student has his head full of beautiful fantasies. He thinks he can definitely get good grades, but he has little confidence in his abilities, so he usually can't sleep well before the exam.

To sum up, there is a 99% chance that Miss Spencer will be late today.

For this purpose, Principal Hirate even specially adjusted the order of examination subjects, putting English, which was the most difficult subject for the noble lady of the Daying Empire, as the first subject, in order to maximize the psychological pressure.

After doing so many things, Principal Dazhu has only one humble wish - to have a good talk with that man at the school gate.

Be my son... ahem, no, be my student!!

Bring your girlfriend who has already made her debut as a voice actress with you. We are the most open-minded in Fengzhizaki. You are the freest person here! This is your paradise! Hojo-kun!!

This old man is over sixty years old. Most things in the world are familiar to him and cannot bring him any surprise, except for miracles like Hojo Kyosuke.

He believed that if Hojo Kyosuke could graduate during the period when he was the principal, he would surely be remembered forever!

This has almost become the deepest obsession of this old man who is over fifty years old. If he had never had it, he would at most feel envious and lost. However, he almost got it but lost it. He experienced all the eight sufferings of Buddhism. This made Principal Big Pig so angry that he wanted to smash the earth with his head and destroy the world.

As he thought about it, tears blurred his vision again, but he immediately raised his hand and wiped it away with a handkerchief. He had to use the geographical advantage to keep a close eye on the school gate, because he knew that Hojo Kyosuke would not usually send Miss Spencer directly to the school gate.

Those deep-set and somewhat cloudy eyes stared motionlessly at the campus road outside Toyosaki Academy.

Suddenly, a wet white handkerchief fell to the ground.

Bakana!

That damn poor student! No, that dear art genius!

Why did this guy come so early! ?

Principal Big Pig looked at the school gate in disbelief, his eyes almost popping out.

At the school gate, a group of girls were talking and laughing as they walked into the school.

In the middle of the crowd, there was a girl who seemed to be glowing.

Her golden twin ponytails sparkled with noble brilliance under the morning sun, her delicate face was full of cheerful smiles, and her legs wrapped in black cotton stockings were light and relaxed...

In short, this is the princess of Toyonosaki, Her Highness Sawamura Spencer Eriri.

Surrounded by her friends, she seemed to be emitting endless light, illuminating the classmates around her who were worried about exams.

What happened? Why could this student... this distinguished lady laugh so easily?

Principal Dazhu seemed to be blinded by the dazzling light and couldn't help but take two steps back.

Could it be that she has activated the English ability in her blood?

The principal's head was about to explode. He didn't want to be happy for the students' all-round development of morality, intelligence and physique. He was only indignant inside and angry that the poor students were no longer sad.

What he didn't know was that Eriri never doubted her own abilities, because she simply didn't have the ability to evaluate herself objectively (pride.JPG).

If you don’t know that you are actually weak, there will be no tension!

Not to mention that during the previous several tutoring sessions, Hojo Kyosuke, that damn gentle man, brainwashed the poor princess in all aspects.

"Even though you tried your best and still couldn't do it, you were brave enough to challenge the scary unfamiliar knowledge! That's really amazing!"

"what?"

"Ordinary people don't have this kind of awareness. Don't you think you are great? That won't do! The essence of learning is progress. If you can't maturely see your own excellence, then what's the point of this tutoring?"

"that……"

"Lily! Are you going to make my efforts go to waste?!"

"Alright! Why are you nagging me? Do I need you to remind me that I'm so great? It's just a chore. Don't act like you're so great. I'm getting angry!"

in this way.

"You're too tired to study today? Oh... Is that so... I thought you really wanted to study today..."

"Why do you think so? Because what you are wearing today looks like someone who loves learning, and the kind of genius who can learn things quickly."

"Just an ordinary school uniform? Wrong, wrong, wrong! Do you think I didn't notice? The wrinkles on your skirt were all calculated using the most rigorous mathematical formulas... Did you ask Naoka to iron it for you? Hahaha, that's because Naoka can see that Lily, you really want to study today!"

"And the schoolbag. Today's pendant is also very energetic. Puppy, you want Momotaro to encourage you, right? I understand, I understand."

"Your hands are so clean. Are you ready to use the pencil? If you use a mechanical pencil with such beautiful hands, you will definitely be able to write beautiful words!"

"Haha, look, you've already opened the exercise book without even noticing. Your body is very honest, Lily! I was right. You're very eager to learn today. You're the kind of genius who's both hardworking and smart!"

Such.

Kato Megumi, who was sitting next to her, often felt sad because she was too self-disciplined. If she was as averse to studying as Eriri, would Kyosuke also praise herself like this?

Although from the perspective of an outsider, Eriri would seem silly, being coaxed into studying obediently by just a few words, but...

If you are the one being praised, you should feel very happy, right?

The girl Kato Megumi is very sure of this, after all, her classmate Sawamura who hates studying has already proved this very well.

She wasn't worried that Eriri would be devastated and lose interest in life after the test results came out. After all, Kyousuke was so strong that he would definitely praise Lili and make her come back to life immediately.

Eh... Even though I said that and although I'm very tempted, Hui still can't do anything that doesn't fit in with her personality.

At table 16 in class B, Hui was holding a notebook in both hands and reading, but her eyes were a little dazed and her mind was in a mess.

The events of the past month kept replaying in her mind. Although the time was not long, it felt as if they weighed more than the past seventeen years.

There is a real difference between a life that is ignored and a life that is valued.

The girl's hand had reached into the drawer at some point and touched the wooden lunch box.

Although Naoka said it was breakfast, Hui was reluctant to eat it so hastily and casually. Instead, she wanted to enjoy it while chatting with friends at noon after finishing the exam.

She put the notebook back on the table. Although it had been open for a while, she hadn't actually read it. She had memorized all the knowledge points written on it. Now Hui could hold her head high and call herself a good student.

“…Really, Ebi needs to apologize to me! Whether you were going to the baseball game the day before yesterday or the performance yesterday, you didn’t even invite me! I’m really, really, really disappointed in you!”

Ohashi Junko, who had moved to the front row of Hui, denounced her friend's brutality in tears. It would have been fine if she had stayed there on Saturday, but she wasn't even invited to come on Sunday!

Really, just because I completely forgot about you as a friend and didn’t send you any messages, can you ignore me too?

It wasn't intentional!

Ohashi Junko's words were justified and confident. After all, it was not her fault. Being able to find Kei in the classroom was already worthy of praise, okay?

"Hmm, hm~~"

Hui nodded briskly, but actually wasn't listening at all. Due to the characteristics of her class, Ohashi didn't notice her perfunctory attitude at all. On the contrary, he accepted his friend's "apology" with satisfaction, and then went on to talk about other things.

"It seems that Hojo-sensei's school is also going to have an exam today, right? Ah, it would be great if I could take the exam in the same classroom with him, then I could stare at him openly."

Hearing this, Kato Megumi couldn't help but retract her wandering thoughts and looked at her friend in confusion.

Why can you stare at Kyousuke openly during the exam? Isn't this right?

"Think about it, during the exam, I just need to not cheat, right? So it's okay for me to keep staring at Mr. Hojo. So, although I seem to be imprisoned in the exam room, I am actually the freest at this time!"

Although they are friends, Ohashi Junko is not able to see through Hui's "calm doubts", but it does not prevent her from proudly expressing her thoughts:

"Ah~ freedom—"

she groaned.

Hui calmly withdrew her gaze and skillfully drove her friend's nonsense out of her mind. This was her special skill. After all, if she wanted to keep a calm mind, she had to think less and remember less. If she didn't listen to or remember some messy words, she wouldn't have any random thoughts.

Although she said so, she found that she was spending more and more time daydreaming.

Just now, she actually recalled all the words that Hojo Kyosuke had said to coax Eriri when he was tutoring her, and now she was recalling them again.

Really...

Should I deliberately do poorly on this exam?

Such a thought suddenly jumped out of the water and hung in Kato Megumi's head like a morning star.

In this way, Kyousuke-kun's after-school tutoring will continue, and he may even comfort himself like he comforted Eriri, saying those cute compliments to himself...

What will it be like?

"Megumi, just cry if you're sad. Even though you can't see it on your face, you're actually very sad, right? It's okay, you've been working hard. When Eriri was fooling around, you were studying hard. I saw it all. You really, really tried your best!"

"Don't hide your sadness in your heart. It will only make it deeper like wine. You should learn from Eriri. Sometimes it's good to be a happy idiot."

"It's okay. You've improved by thirty places this time! That's equivalent to surpassing the entire class. This is simply a miracle. Can't you see that Eriri is so envious that she's already autistic?"

"..."

I don't know why the frequency of "英梨里" appearing is a bit high.

Hui is confident that she can act "calmly sad", and is also confident that she will not be seen through.

It's just... um...

Ah, we can’t do this~~ Kyousuke will be sad. After all, he is the one who works the hardest...

Kato Megumi was very clear about this. Although she had not seen Hojo Kyosuke preparing lessons with her own eyes, those 600 sets of exercises were really terrifying.

Hui, you can't be so mean! (End of this chapter)
