Chapter 54

"Almost, I understand it all," Kitakami Yoru nodded, still quite confident.

"Then wait a moment, I'll write two problems, and you come up and solve them," Yukinoshita Yukino said without another word, turned around, and started writing furiously on the blackboard with chalk.

Tap tap tap!

The sound of chalk hitting the blackboard kept ringing.

A few minutes later, Yukinoshita Yukino signaled for Kitakami Yoru to come up and answer the questions.

Taking a deep breath, Kitakami Yoru picked up a piece of chalk from the long table, stood in front of the blackboard, and carefully observed the problems.

His brain spun rapidly, and he already had a train of thought.

"Use the problem-solving method I just taught you," Yukinoshita Yukino reminded him calmly.

Taking advantage of the short moment while Kitakami Yoru was solving the problems, she walked down to drink some water and looked at Yuigahama Yui again.

"Yuigahama-san, if you're interested, you can join too?"

"I remember Yuigahama-san's grades are also in the middle of the grade, right?"

Yukinoshita Yukino said.

"No need, Yukinoshita-chan~"

Yuigahama Yui hurriedly waved her hand with a smile.

A while later, Kitakami Yoru walked down quite confidently.

Before he could speak, Yukinoshita Yukino glanced at the answer and knew the result.

"It seems Kitakami-kun is working harder than I imagined; he's still teachable."

Yukinoshita Yukino praised him rarely, and then said:

"That's all for today's lesson; since you're learning well, try this test paper."

"Test paper?"

Kitakami Yoru showed a puzzled expression.

Yukinoshita Yukino took out a large white A4 paper from her school bag, filled with neat problems, looking just like a test paper.

"Yukinoshita-chan, these problems, you didn't handwrite them, did you?" Yuigahama Yui exclaimed after seeing it.

"Answer them, let me see your level," Yukinoshita Yukino didn't answer Yuigahama Yui's question.

Kitakami Yoru took this neat test paper handwritten by Yukinoshita Yukino and read it seriously.

"Yukinoshita really put her heart into it..." Kitakami Yoru muttered.

The problems on it covered all subjects, all corresponding to his current level.

The handwriting was neat, the page was clear and clean, and the ink hadn't even dried completely.

"Answer them, it's getting late," Yukinoshita Yukino urged coldly.

Immediately, Kitakami Yoru started answering the questions.

It wasn't until the club activity time was almost over that Kitakami Yoru finished writing.

Yukinoshita Yukino graded them on the spot; these problems were all handwritten by her, and for her, there was no difference in difficulty from 1+1.

In less than a minute, after scanning the answers, she knew the result.

"How... how is it?" Kitakami Yoru's nervous emotion infected Yuigahama Yui beside him.

"It's okay, barely passing, keep it up," Yukinoshita Yukino nodded gently toward Kitakami Yoru.

"Whew~"

Someone in the Service Club felt their heart drop to the ground.

"Congratulations, Kitakami-kun, and Yukinoshita-chan, can we start now?" Yuigahama Yui said to Yukinoshita Yukino with a smile.

Hearing this, Kitakami Yoru looked at the two curiously.

What was going on that he didn't know about?

"Yukinoshita-chan is going to teach me how to bake cookies because my mother's birthday is coming up, and I want to give her a unique gift."

"Kitakami-kun, do you want to join? It's Friday anyway, and it's still early."

Yuigahama Yui explained.

"This... it is indeed still early."

"Can I come?"

Kitakami Yoru replied hesitantly.

"Of course you can, I also want one more person to help me taste them and give me opinions!" Yuigahama Yui nodded vigorously.

She had secretly tried it at home by herself before, looking at a recipe, but it was a complete failure.

She hadn't even mixed the cookie batter well, and what she baked just turned into a lump of something that looked very disgusting.

Holding onto the expectation that it might look ugly but taste okay.

She tried a little bit, and as a result, she had no appetite for dinner.

After simply tidying up the Service Club, the three of them went to the home economics classroom.

The weekly home economics class teaches cooking, sewing, simple hygiene care, and so on.

After preparing everything, Yukinoshita Yukino started teaching.

They were making very simple cookies.

The ingredients were butter, white sugar, eggs, low-gluten flour, and salt.

Kitakami Yoru would absolutely not eat this kind of high-calorie baked food.

However, taking a bite to try the taste was fine.

It was impossible for a few grams of cookies to affect his weight loss, right?

Trying to make them himself wouldn't make him gain weight either.

"First soften the butter, add white sugar..."

"Stir, and depending on the hardness and moisture of the dough, put it into a piping bag or knead it into a dough, and use a mold to press out the shape you like..."

"Brush a little oil and egg wash, and put it into the baking tray."

In just five or six minutes, a baking tray in front of Yukinoshita Yukino was covered with a dozen semi-finished cookies.

She didn't make many, just a little bit.

This wasn't made for eating, just for teaching.

"Wow, you're so amazing, Yukinoshita-chan," Yuigahama Yui exclaimed in admiration.

"Alright, next, you try it yourselves; I'll teach you from the side, Yuigahama-san," Yukinoshita Yukino didn't show the slightest joy from being praised.

After speaking, Yukinoshita Yukino had already put on heat-resistant gloves and put the baking tray into the oven.

"Ah, that fast..." Yuigahama Yui exclaimed in surprise; she hadn't understood yet.

"I'll try it too."

Kitakami Yoru picked up a bowl and started trying it himself.

It looked very simple.

He usually looked at recipes and cooked for himself, so he just had to follow the instructions.

Yukinoshita Yukino was also on the side reminding him of the proportions of the ingredients.

Seeing Kitakami Yoru start acting, Yuigahama Yui looked at Yukinoshita Yukino for help and started hesitantly.

Kitakami Yoru did it very seriously, discovering that he seemed to have a talent for cooking; maybe he could become a famous chef in the future?

Recalling Yukinoshita Yukino's operation process.

His movements were a bit slow, but Kitakami Yoru successfully made the dough, put it into the piping bag, and squeezed it into the baking tray.

51: Miura Who Wants to Act

"You're already done, Kitakami-kun..."

Yuigahama Yui, who had been scolded countless times by Yukinoshita Yukino, was still stuck at the ratio of butter and flour.

Every time, either there was too much butter, or she put the wrong flour.

"Alright, keep it up," Kitakami Yoru replied calmly.

"Am I an idiot with absolutely no femininity?" Yuigahama Yui was about to fall into self-doubt.

Kitakami Yoru put on heat-resistant gloves and put the cookies he made into the oven.

Taking this opportunity, Yukinoshita Yukino flipped her own cookies and taught the clumsy Yuigahama Yui hand-in-hand.

Kitakami Yoru took out his phone and started reading the news.

It was still a long time before the time he had agreed with Gabriel.
