Tokyo Love Story

"Then..." Tsugumi Seina paused, put away her relaxed look, straightened her expression, and mentioned another question quite seriously, "About the division of subjects.

“I talked about this specifically last semester. Since it is the first semester of the entrance exam, there is no need to consider this. Or rather, you can consider it, but don’t be too anxious.

“But right now, it’s already the second semester of the first year of high school.

"It is customary for Shirakawa High School to have students choose their majors in the first semester of their second year of high school, so for now, everyone can start thinking seriously about it."

When it comes to issues that will determine the future of students, Tsugumi Serina is always serious and never laughs.

She chose science in high school and was admitted to her ideal university, but she did encounter many difficulties in the learning process.

"As someone who has been through this, there's not a lot I can tell you, and I can't cover every detail." Tsugumi Makina paused, "But the monthly exam results and your own intuitive feelings when taking the corresponding courses can help you decide how to choose when you divide your subjects."

"Teacher Tsugumi Makoto, is our Class A a science class?"

Hearing this, a boy with good grades raised his hand and asked.

"Yes." Tsugumi Seina nodded, "However, the liberal arts class is not far from us. Class B next door is the liberal arts class."

"Thank you, Mr. Tsugumi Makoto. I understand."

The boy nodded thoughtfully, lowered his eyebrows, and began to think seriously.

"From a practical point of view, I hope everyone will choose what they are interested in, but if you consider it from the perspective of further studies..." Tsugumi Seina paused, "In short, everyone should be cautious."

Interest is the best teacher, but it does not rule out the type of students who don't particularly like something but are particularly talented in a certain area. She has seen such students, and quite a few of them.

To be more precise, there are three of them in Class A of Grade 1.

Thinking of this, Tsugumi Serina subconsciously glanced at the three people sitting by the window, and a sense of frustration suddenly arose in her heart for no reason.

She thought she had good grades, but compared to the other three, she was far behind.

"We have almost finished what we need to say. Let's stop here for today. The rest of the time is left to you." Tsugumi Seina patted the chalk dust on her hands, raised her eyebrows, glanced around the podium, and emphasized again, "But remember to keep quiet."

"Also, today's first class is..." Tsugumi Seina turned around and glanced at the class schedule she had posted on the wall yesterday, "Physics, everyone remember to prepare the textbooks."

After saying this, Tsugumi Seina hurriedly left the classroom.

Next, she had to go to the principal's office, where the old man who had watched her grow up was waiting for her.

According to him, he had something important to tell her.

In the corridor, Tsugumi Seina recalled the principal's tone on the phone and thought about what he said.

After thinking for a moment, she frowned instinctively.

She had a strong feeling that the principal was looking for her this time not for work matters.

See you tomorrow~!

Chapter 173 Troubles

Maybe it's just like the old saying goes, the more you fear something, the more likely it is to happen.

Tsugumi Seina's worries finally became a reality.

The old man who watched her grow up did not talk to her about work, but about her personal emotional problems.

Inside the principal's office, the not-so-bright early morning sunlight streamed into the room through the half-opened blinds, falling on the leaves of the two green potted plants by the window, emitting bursts of warm light.

Tsugumi Seina sat upright on the leather sofa, her eyes fixed on the principal who was sitting across from the coffee table.

The face of this weather-beaten old man is full of wrinkles left by time.

From the other party's brief description just now, she roughly understood what her family meant.

They felt that she was indeed old. If she didn't hurry up, three or four years would pass in a flash and she would be thirty in the blink of an eye. The daughters of their friends got married early at her age, and some of them were more active and even had children.

Rubbing her swollen temples, Tsugumi Seina sighed, "So, is this considered an ultimatum?"

"According to what he conveyed to me..." The principal sighed, a complex expression flashed across his eyes, and he nodded, "Yes."

"he?"

Tsugumi Seina raised her eyebrows, keenly catching the key word.

According to her understanding of the old man in front of her, there are basically only a few people who can be addressed by him like this.

"This call is not from your parents." The principal looked at Tsugumi Seina, hesitated for a moment, and finally chose not to hide it from her, "It's from your grandfather, my old friend."

On the phone, the old friend repeatedly emphasized that as half-grandfather of Tsugumi Serina, he should at least not continue to be biased, even if he couldn't help with her ideological work.

From his personal point of view, he would rather Tsugumi Seina pursue her own happiness.

Just as Tsugumi Seina herself said, there is no suitable age for marriage, only the right person.

But on the phone, facing his old friend's earnest request, he could only swallow the words and couldn't say them out loud.

Was this girl Li Nai wrong? She was not wrong; was my old friend wrong? No.

In the era they lived in, girls of this age were indeed supposed to get married.

"Then..." Tsugumi Seina suddenly became depressed. She sighed and changed to honorifics. "How did you answer?"

"I didn't answer." The principal sighed and raised his eyebrows, his expression was a little subtle, "I don't know how I should answer."

"So...what do you think?"

Tsugumi Serina bit her lip, and there was a hint of stubbornness in her eyes.

On this issue, she has no intention of backing down, and she is even less willing to force herself to spend the rest of her life with a random man she likes.

"To be honest, I hope you can have your own happiness."

The principal's expression was very serious, not joking at all, "But..."

He changed the subject, lowered his head, and looked more apologetic. "Now that Tsugumi Makoto has spoken like that, I really can't continue to favor you. You may have to handle subsequent calls from that end by yourself."

"That's enough, thank you."

Tsugumi Seirina lowered her head and thanked him sincerely.

Put yourself in his shoes. He has done the best he can.

From the past to now, the old man has been very good to her. He has taken care of her in every way he could, and he has also tried to cover for her in areas where he could not.

"That's boring." The principal waved his hand. "It's too distant."

Hearing this, Tsugumi Seirina smiled knowingly and nodded.

"But, then again." The principal coughed softly, "If you really meet someone you think is suitable, you can still boldly try to talk to him/her. There is no need to always close yourself off. Our Rina is not bad either, so be more confident."

This is not a question of whether one is a lobbyist or not. Strictly speaking, this is Tsugumi Seina's own statement.

One day at the end of last month, when Tsugumi Serina was complaining to him, she mentioned someone of the opposite sex.

Even when he was in a bad mood, he said a few impulsive words.

Although he said it was just an act of impulse, he could tell that behind this so-called "acting on impulse", there was probably half, or even most, of the truth.

"If I were still a student, I would definitely try to get closer to him and have a relationship with him, but unfortunately, the age gap between us is too big."

"When I saw him celebrating someone's birthday, I had an indescribable mixed feeling, feeling both gratified and a little envious."

"It's not that easy."

Tsugumi Seirina shook her head, a hint of sadness flashing across her eyes.

How easy is it to find the destined person?

"Calm down and look around you, maybe."

The principal gave Tsuchiya Seina a meaningful look and added this slowly.

Sometimes the difference between having destiny but no destiny and having destiny and destiny may just be a matter of one word.

"Then we'll talk about it later." Tsugumi Seina scratched her long hair and changed the subject. "By the way, is this school festival the same as in previous years?"

"Yes." The principal looked at her strangely, "Why are you asking this suddenly?"

"A girl in our class said she wanted to open a maid cafe." Speaking of this, Tsugumi Seina's irritability suddenly subsided a lot. She thought about it, smiled, and added, "She's a very cute girl."

"Isn't this great?" The principal was stunned for half a second. "However, there are many maid cafes every year. It's a bit difficult to stand out."

"Yeah, so I told her that we need to come up with something new and different."

Tsugumi Seina gave the principal a look that said 'I understand, don't worry'.

Ok……

The principal looked at Tsugumi Seina, then at the coffee table, and his mood became heavier. Compared to before, he was even more nervous.

Considering what Tsugumi Serina had done before, it would be impossible for him to really let it go!

The principal carefully considered his words and coughed softly, adding a dose of precaution in his tone, "Of course, don't be too novel!"

The high EQ version is that Tsugumi Makina has always been very creative, while the low EQ version is that Tsugumi Makina can always find something for him to do.

"I understand!"

Tsugumi Seirina nodded in agreement.

Seeing her like this, his uneasiness became even stronger.

But he couldn't say anything else.

In short, believe it first.

call.

The principal patted his trouser legs, stood up and walked to the blinds.

The early morning light fell on his face, causing him to squint subconsciously.

He reached out and fiddled with the blades of the blinds, was silent for a while, and couldn't help but give another instruction to Tsugumi Seina behind him.

"Anyway, don't go too far!"

I would like to thank the three teachers Yimengrushingyun, Mengjingzhishui and Wanyecongzhongguopiancaobushanshen for their monthly tickets. Your support is my motivation for writing.

Chapter 174 Linyin, can I borrow your Che?

In fact, the first day of school is not as difficult as most students imagine.

Familiar teachers, familiar textbooks, familiar deskmates, the morning passed by in a flash.

As the bell rang for the fourth class in the morning, Shirakawa High School officially welcomed the lunch break on the first day of school after the end of summer vacation.

"get out of class is over."

After leaving these words, the world history teacher, who had no intention of keeping the class after class, picked up the lesson plan and left the classroom in a clean and neat manner.

As soon as the teacher left, the students who had already taken out their lunch boxes followed him out of the classroom and lined up at the lunch box heating area at the end of the corridor.

Takuya Kiriyama invited three or two boys who usually didn't bring lunch boxes to go to the school cafeteria.

What surprised Kitagawa Che was that Yukisa Morishima, who was a frequent customer of the cafeteria convenience store last semester, was acting out of character today.

The girl took out a small lunch box from her schoolbag and went to the heating area to queue up.

Before leaving her seat, the girl even turned around and looked at him, raised her eyebrows at him, and looked like "I'm not lying to you, I really have been practicing all the time."

That expression made Kitagawa Che couldn't help laughing. To be honest, at this moment, this icy-looking girl like Morishima Yukisa was indeed quite cute.

When the people in the classroom had finally dispersed, Ejima Myo said hello to Kitagawa Che and Kitaen Rin, then took out lunch boxes for three people from a large lunch box, carried them, walked out of the classroom, and went to line up in the heating room.

Suddenly, there were only a few people left in the classroom.

"What would you like to eat tonight?"

Beiyuan Linyin raised her eyebrows, looked around, and made sure that no one was paying attention to them. Then she took out a small notebook, raised her eyebrows, and looked at Beichuan Che with anticipation.

This was the solution she and Ejima Myo came up with - to solve the problem of what the Kitagawa family wanted to eat.

Instead of guessing yourself, it is better to ask the person involved directly, which is both convenient and faster.

"As for tonight..." Kitagawa Che was a little confused by Kitaen Rin's question, but he quickly came to his senses, "Personally, I want to eat fried pork cutlet."

Low-temperature aged fried pork cutlets are very popular at the Kitagawa family, but due to some special reasons, the two chefs, Ejima Tadashi and Kitaen Rin, have too many cards in their hands, so the chances of fried pork cutlets being served on the table are not very high.

"Pork cutlet?"

Kitaen Rin wrote this dish in a small notebook and marked it with a red circle.
