Even with chuunibyou, let's learn together!

I always feel like they're the kind of baby that can't be taught, crying all the time and it's so annoying.

At this moment, Nino, wearing a home apron, came out of the kitchen, put one hand on her hip and said to Ichika, "Ichika, stop dawdling and hurry up and call Miku and Satsuki to sit down at the table. Breakfast will be ready soon, let's eat and go to school quickly."

“Okay, it’s great to have Nino.”

Ichika cheered and went upstairs to call Satsuki and Miku.

"You two,"

Nino glanced at the breakfast table and Yotsuba sitting in a row on a sofa, paused for a moment, and said, "Come and have breakfast too."

"I won't need it."

Hayakawa instinctively wanted to refuse him, as she didn't have the habit of eating breakfast at other people's homes.

"Come over here quickly, it's just to add another set of chopsticks and a bowl."

Nino raised an eyebrow: "And you want to go to school for the exam on an empty stomach."

Hayakawa thought to herself that she had skipped breakfast countless times before taking exams, and even if she was really hungry, she would probably just buy a small bread roll on the street, so it didn't matter to her. However, looking at Nino's proud yet concerned expression, Hayakawa still didn't refuse.

"Then excuse me."

Hayakawa Road.

"Okay, come over quickly."

Nino nodded in satisfaction.

Chapter 514 Meeting the Father-in-Law

Nino nodded in satisfaction, but then her gaze inadvertently fell on Yotsuba beside her, a hint of suspicion flashing in her eyes.

Yotsuba noticed the gaze and her heart skipped a beat. She tried to act nonchalant, but couldn't help feeling guilty and avoided the gaze.

Seeing Yotsuba like this, Nino's suspicion deepened. The seemingly proud and generous girl, but actually sensitive and delicate, keenly sensed that something was wrong. She hesitated but didn't say anything, only saying, "Let's go over there quickly."

So Hayakawa and Yotsuba had breakfast with the five sisters, then got ready and went out to go to school.

……

Nino's cooking skills are quite good; at least Hayakawa thinks they're better than his own, or even much better.

This girl may have channeled her talent into cooking; she's practically got the skills to open her own restaurant.

"Um…"

Hayakawa rarely eats a proper breakfast, and he's actually a little unaccustomed to it.

With her schoolbag on her back, she followed the five sisters downstairs. But when they reached the first floor, the five sisters suddenly stopped at the doorway, looking as if they had seen something terrifying.

"What are you doing? Why aren't you leaving?"

Hayakawa glanced outside, puzzled, but didn't find anything scary; it was just like yesterday.

"What's wrong?" Hayakawa asked, somewhat confused, and couldn't help but lean closer to Ichika, who was closest to him.

"Doesn't that black car look familiar?" Yihua pointed with a strange expression to a black minivan parked in a parking space downstairs in the residential area not far away.

"Uh... I don't remember."

Hayakawa thought for a moment, then shook his head.

“I do have a vague recollection of it. You’ve ridden in this car before,” Ichika said irritably. “Mr. Jiang Duan drove you back before.”

"Oh, is that so?"

Hayakawa was taken aback: "So?"

"You idiot, Hayakawa, how can you be so slow to react? Mr. Ebata is Dad's secretary. He's driving here now, which means Dad is in the car too!"

Ichika explained through gritted teeth.

"..."

Oh, I see.

"What should we do... Dad must know that we have our final exams today, so he came all the way here to take us."

Ichika stammered, "In the end, we were blocked at the door. If he sees you here, he'll definitely misunderstand."

"hiss…"

Hayakawa immediately understood, and a hint of embarrassment crossed his face.

This is troublesome. I was blocked at the door by the girl's father. I guess I'll have to explain again. But it's normal. After all, it's the home of five girls, and I stayed there overnight. Any normal father would question me severely. Even questioning would be considered lenient. If it were the father of a ramen chef from an udon noodle shop, he would probably interrogate me with a rolling pin.

"no solution anymore."

Hayakawa thought for a moment and said to the five sisters, "You all go out. I'll stay here and leave after you all leave."

The five sisters, who had initially been hesitant, became more determined upon hearing this.

"What's the point of hiding it? Just come along with us."

Without hesitation, Nina said, "An explanation will suffice. We haven't done anything wrong."

That's why I want to keep it hidden—because I don't want to explain.

"I also think it's not good to hide it like this."

May thought for a moment and said seriously, "There aren't many people in our neighborhood, and most of us know each other. It's fine if we hide and aren't discovered, but if Dad finds out about Hayakawa, it will be even more troublesome, not to mention Mr. Ebata."

May's words made the Nakano Five Sisters even more hesitant, and after exchanging glances, they made up their minds.

"I said so."

"There's nothing more to say, let's just go."

Hayakawa wanted to say something, but Nino acted swiftly and decisively, giving him no chance to refuse. She pulled him out the door, and then the rest of the group came to the car together.

The car window slowly rolled down, and a middle-aged man dressed in a sharp black suit, with a somewhat gloomy and serious expression, looked out. His expression did not change when he saw the five sisters, but the next moment he saw Hayakawa standing next to the five sisters, and his expression changed.

"You are…"

The five sisters' father, a man named Nakano Maruo, finally revealed his true colors. He frowned slightly as he looked at Hayakawa, a boy he had never met before. His voice carried the cold, magnetic quality unique to mature men, and his expression was serious to the point of being harsh. His unsmiling attitude naturally made the high school student nervous. You could tell without even looking at him that he was a difficult person to get along with.

Hayakawa, however, didn't care. He actually liked people with this kind of serious personality because he was that kind of person himself. He hated people who seemed unreliable and had a frivolous and casual personality (in sports clubs).

The more serious people there are in the world, the better, so that there will be less trouble and stability can be maintained.

"Hurry up, call someone, Hayakawa-kun."

Seeing her father seem a little nervous, Yotsuba kept poking Hayakawa's waist and stammered in a low voice, "Call him 'Dad'..."

Call you sister!

Hayakawa's face immediately darkened: Do you know what you're saying? You're asking me to acknowledge you as my father-in-law right off the bat?

That's why I hate unreliable people like that.

Hayakawa kept his composure and said calmly, "It's nice to meet you, Uncle Nakano. I'm Hayakawa Shiro. I'm a classmate of your daughter and the others at the same school. I was tutoring them last night and forgot the time, so I'm asking to stay the night. I hope you can forgive me."

Ying Ling San Wa Ling Si (8) "You must be Hayakawa-kun."

Hayakawa's words were very clear, and Nakano Maruo understood as well, nodding slightly: "Nino mentioned you to me and said many good things about you."

Did Nino mention me?

Hayakawa looked to the side with slight surprise, only to find Nino with a barely perceptible blush on her face, looking down at the ants on the ground.

"I'm so sorry about the tutoring last night. I'm sorry to have troubled you with these good-for-nothing daughters."

Nakano Maruo first thanked Hayakawa, then said in a somewhat cold tone, "However, you are a boy of the same age, and it is really inappropriate for you to stay overnight. It would be troublesome if word got out, so you should do it less often in the future."

"The group of phosphorus wings I know is eight."

Hayakawa responded calmly.

He wasn't angry. From a father's perspective, seeing several of his high school daughters having a boy of similar age stay at his house, he had already restrained himself by reminding himself of this. The boy had expressed his gratitude and politely reminded him; there was no need for him to have any emotional reaction.

"That's good."

Nakano Maruo nodded: "I just happened to drive here today, so I'll give you all a ride to school. Getting to school early and being prepared will help you perform better on the exam."

After saying that, Mr. Jiang Duan, whom they had met that morning, got out of the passenger seat and opened the car door for the group.

Chapter 515: Tan Man Hayakawa

"That would be troublesome."

Hayakawa didn't hold back this time, after all, Nakano Maruo was his classmate's father and thus an elder, so he had no reason to refuse.

All six people got into the car together. Hayakawa naturally went to the back seat last, but suddenly stopped.

The Nakano family's car is a large black business van. It drives very smoothly and has a grand appearance. Since it is used to pick up and drop off the five sisters, it naturally has many seats. There are three rows in total, with two rows behind the driver and front passenger seats that can each seat two people.

The five sisters rarely go out together. Even when they do, Mr. Ebata picks them up and drops them off, leaving the passenger seat empty. With one person in the passenger seat and two people in each of the two rows of seats, all five sisters can sit. Even if Nakano Maruo comes occasionally, three of the five sisters can squeeze in. But now that Hayakawa is also here, it means that no matter how the seats are arranged, Hayakawa will have to squeeze into two seats with the two girls.

Anyone who has ridden in a car knows that this kind of seating arrangement is very uncomfortable. You have to squeeze together with other people, with your legs touching your legs and your shoulders touching your shoulders. It's also inevitable that you'll bump into each other when the car shakes occasionally.

So Hayakawa hesitated for a moment and stopped in his tracks. He didn't want to have any misunderstandings with the girl in front of his parents, and he had never encountered such a thing before. Given his personality, he didn't like to have too much contact with people.

"Excuse me, my car seems a bit small."

Nakano Maruo immediately noticed Hayakawa's predicament and casually said, "I'll trouble you, Hayakawa-kun, to squeeze in a little bit. You guys don't have any objections, right?"

After saying that, he looked at Lu Ling II umbrella (four) and stopped talking to the five sisters.

Before the others could react, Nino was the first to cross her arms and say, "It's okay, it won't take long anyway, we can just squeeze through."

"Just sit next to me."

After saying that, Nino, who was sitting in her seat, pulled Hayakawa into the car.

"It seems that Nino and Hayakawa-kun have a good relationship."

Upon seeing this, Nakano Maruo's eyes flickered, and he spoke meaningfully.

Hayakawa was speechless, unsure of what to say. Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed that Nino had lowered her head at some point, her translucent earlobes tinged with pink, and her face flushed red all the way to her neck.

She was clearly extremely embarrassed when her father pointed out her relationship with a boy in public.

Hayakawa felt a pang of guilt upon seeing this: even in front of her family, Nino made no attempt to hide her feelings for him; she openly and bravely displayed her affection.

Looking at herself... she neither hoped to reciprocate this feeling, nor could she avoid hurting her.

Hayakawa sighed slightly, feeling a little disappointed, and thought about what he should do.

But what can I do for them? At most, I can be a tutor.

At the very least, we should help them get through next year's final exams and successfully advance to the next level of education.

Hayakawa thought to herself: If before she only taught the five sisters as a side benefit because she wanted to help Yotsuba, now she has another reason to teach Nino.

Perhaps I cannot avoid hurting this girl's feelings, but at least I can offer her some insignificant help in her strongest area: her studies.

……

Hayakawa avoided looking at the girl next to her, trying to avoid her gaze. Fortunately, perhaps because Nakano Maruo was there, Nino didn't try to start a conversation as usual, which relieved Hayakawa.

Hayakawa sat upright, trying her best not to sway her body as the car moved, so as to avoid bumping into Nino next to her.

If he could choose who sat next to him before getting on the bus, he would definitely choose Yotsuba. That way, he could relax more while riding the bus and it wouldn't matter if he accidentally bumped into the person next to him. But now it's Nino, so Hayakawa can only try to sit up straight and look straight ahead without glancing to the side.

Just then, Ichika, who was in the front row, suddenly turned around quietly and then gave Hayakawa a charming smile. In her happy eyes, there was a hint of ill intent.

"?"

What is this for?

Ichika flashed her phone through the gap in the car seat and then pointed at it, clearly indicating that Hayakawa should look at the phone.

Hayakawa frowned and opened his phone, and sure enough, he found a message from Ichika.

Ichika: Hayakawa-kun, Yotsuba told you to call him "Dad" just now, why didn't you?

Ichika: ()

Hayakawa's face darkened immediately upon seeing these two messages, and his fists hardened.

Call me sister, are you deliberately picking a fight? You even sent a cute emoji, but instead of improving my mood, it made me even angrier.

"I have no reason to call him father."

Hayakawa silently typed a reply.

Ichika replied in a flash: Yes, yes, Nino likes you, right? And Yotsuba likes you too. Maybe you two will get together in the future, and then Daddy will be your father-in-law. So what's wrong with calling me Daddy now?
