Chapter 99

"Rest assured, Lin Ye wouldn't dare to do something like assaulting a girl, no matter how bold he is. I can guarantee that much; at his core, he is still a good person."

She patted Lin Ye on the shoulder, laughing with a "hehehe."

Yukinoshita Yukino realized something, her brows furrowing slightly as she pondered for a moment.

Could it be that Hiratsuka Shizuka hadn't noticed Lin Ye's naked abnormality?

Was he actually wearing clothes?

Was the problem not with Lin Ye, but with herself?

Yukinoshita Yukino endured the awkwardness and looked at Lin Ye again, once more scanning his entire body.

Indeed, there were no clothes.

Could it be that she had developed a clairvoyant superpower?

"So, Teacher, is there something you need here?"

Suppressing the turbulent emotions within, Yukinoshita Yukino maintained her usual composure and spoke slowly.

"I've brought him to join the Service Club, to add a member to your club."

Yukinoshita Yukino's hand trembled slightly again.

"Refused."

"Ah! At least listen to my reasons!"

"Refused. It is inappropriate. As a male who has rejected me multiple times, I would truly feel my chastity is in danger. My apologies, Teacher Hiratsuka."

Upon hearing this, Hiratsuka Shizuka immediately glared at Lin Ye.

"Why did you confess so many times in the past, you brat?"

"That has nothing to do with the current me."

Lin Ye shrugged.

Those were the confessions of the original body; they had nothing to do with him.

"I need to tell you some things. Yukinoshita is still worth trusting."

"Oh!"

Lin Ye nodded, half-understanding.

Hiratsuka Shizuka immediately organized her thoughts.

"It’s like this, Yukinoshita. Last Monday, he encountered an unexpected incident and lost his memory."

Yukinoshita Yukino sat upright, her gaze meeting Hiratsuka Shizuka's.

"He can't remember many things, he has no friends at school, and he has always been alone in class. Today, he collapsed in his apartment, and no one knew until Haruna and I rushed over to find him."

*I... strictly speaking, that wasn't a collapse.*

But since Hiratsuka Shizuka had said so, he felt embarrassed to intentionally undermine her.

"So, I hope he can join the Service Club, and you can help guide him to establish a new, positive outlook on life. With his memory loss, he will surely walk the right path under your guidance."

"..."

"This is my request. Please, Yukinoshita."

Hiratsuka Shizuka pleaded aloud.

"Teacher, you are putting me in a very difficult position."

Her tone held a hint of hesitation and annoyance.

"Please."

Yukinoshita Yukino pursed her lips, conflicted. She wanted to refuse, but Hiratsuka Shizuka had pleaded to this extent.

However, facing the fact that she could see through things, she actually had an idea—letting Lin Ye stay in the Service Club might allow her to uncover something.

Although she absolutely did not want to look at a naked man and pollute her eyes.

Still, this guy's physique was decent, and that... that... was it a bit...?

Yukinoshita Yukino immediately suppressed the soaring thoughts in her heart.

Seeing this, Lin Ye took the initiative to speak.

"Teacher, since Yukinoshita-san feels troubled, let's just forget it! There's no need to force anyone. I will definitely do what I promised you. As for my studies, you don't need to worry; I will get good grades on the next exam."

Right here,

Lin Ye looked at Yukinoshita; she was a beautiful, pleasing sight.

Art, a perfect work of art.

But Lin Ye felt that if he stayed too long, he might actually have a reaction.

So, rather than staying and fighting his own will and physiological reactions, it was better to leave! In any case, Yukinoshita Yukino was unwilling to accept him.

"Yukinoshita, this is my request as your supervising teacher. If he harasses you in the club in the future or causes you trouble, tell me directly, and I will immediately take him away from the Service Club."

Outside the window, the sunlight grew more crimson, a breeze blew, and a few cherry blossoms drifted down.

She made her decision.

The black-haired girl, bathed in the gentle breeze, spoke slowly.

...

Hiratsuka Shizuka was a good teacher—earnest and responsible. She wouldn't choose to ignore failing students, which made her different from many other teachers at Sobu High.

In this fast-paced era, a teacher who genuinely cares about her students is rare.

Yukinoshita Yukino also understood that Hiratsuka Shizuka bringing Lin Ye to the Service Club today to make a request was based on the fact that she had already talked to Lin Ye many times, and finally chose to send him to the Service Club, hoping she could help change him.

As Lin Ye's classmate, she was aware of his performance over the past half-year. He was frequently late and skipped classes; his attendance rate was at the bottom of Class J, and his grades were poor—at the bottom of Class J, and among the lowest in the entire second year.

If it weren't for the fact that Lin Ye didn't engage in fighting or other malicious behavior, he would likely have been expelled from Sobu High long ago.

Yukinoshita Yukino suspected that Lin Ye hadn't been expelled because Hiratsuka Shizuka had negotiated with the school many times. Facing such a sincere teacher, Lin Ye had been letting her down the whole time.

To be honest, Yukinoshita Yukino really didn't have a good impression of such a boy.

"Since the teacher has requested it, I accept."

The cold, black-haired girl gave her answer with a hint of helplessness.

This was also a decision she had made with great determination.

Putting a naked man in her Service Club made her truly feel that her chastity was in constant danger.

*I hope things can return to normal tomorrow!*

She couldn't help but think.

"I knew you would agree, Yukinoshita."

Hiratsuka Shizuka let out a sigh of relief.

Yukinoshita had already refused twice; if she had refused a third time, she really would have been too embarrassed to ask again.

"Then I will leave him to you. Teach him well and change him, so he can become a good student who loves to learn."

Patting Lin Ye on the shoulder, Hiratsuka Shizuka pushed him gently toward Yukinoshita.

The distance was even closer now.

Yukinoshita sat in her chair, fighting the urge to flee.

"I cannot guarantee that."

"I believe you can. You are Yukinoshita, after all."

"Teacher, I feel like 'Yukinoshita' has been given some special meaning by you."

"Haha."

Hiratsuka Shizuka laughed, her gaze falling on Lin Ye.

"Brat, you better remember this: I let you join the Service Club to change your current lifestyle, to integrate into the group, to study hard, and to improve your grades. Don't you dare think about anything else!"

She warned him.

"I have promised Yukinoshita; if you dare to harass or pester her, don't blame me for being unkind."

*Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...*

Hiratsuka Shizuka swung her right fist, the wind whistling.

"The Iron Fist of Justice."

"Teacher,"

Lin Ye raised his hand.
