I, Tomoya Aki, am not a bootlicker

I don't know when the night fell outside the window, but the night view of Tokyo is as bright as ever.

Many students who have finished their review have gradually come out of the cram schools scattered all over the city. Further study is not the only option, but there are really many people who choose this path. At night, what you can see in the city are not only the social animals coming out of the izakaya, but also the army of people preparing for the exam coming out of the cram schools, including many repeaters who failed the exam.

Of course, at this point in time, there are also students who do not need to consider their future or who have not chosen further education as a career path and are wandering around outside.

This city, which has one of the highest population densities in the world, does look very prosperous, but for most people in this city, the towering steel forests can make many people feel suffocated.

"knock off!"

In Qingfeng Academy, Amaki Tomoya closed his book and rubbed his sore neck.

I turned my head to look out the window, then looked at the time. The other students in the cram school had almost left.

It's about time.

"Thank you for today as well. See you the day after tomorrow, Mr. Tsubota."

After packing up his things, Tomoya Aki walked up to Mr. Tsubota and said goodbye.

Mr. Tsubota smiled, then stood up and replied, "See you next time, Amaki-san."

The last student left, and only Mr. Tsubota and the newly-joined Junko Harumi were left in the school.

As a senior, Mr. Tsubota came to Junko Harumi again and asked, "Harumi teacher, are you used to this place?"

It's the same problem as the previous president.

Harumi Junko nodded and replied politely: "It is an honor to be able to teach students here!"

Mr. Tsubota didn't care whether it was a polite remark or a sincere one. He just hoped that Junko Harumi could get into the state as soon as possible.

After all, even as a senior in the school, he didn't have much time to take care of Harumi Junko.

There are more than a dozen students in the cram school. Although it is not as big as those small places, one person is responsible for more than a dozen students and has to treat each student in a different way. He is often too busy to handle it.

Although there is a new tutor joining now, which seems to be able to share the pressure, to be honest, the Junko Harumi in front of him is quite worrying.

Mr. Tsubota has seen many frustrated people like this, but from what he has seen, he can also find that Junko Harumi's family background should be considered good.

At this age, she sometimes looks decadent and frustrated. She comes from a good family. If he guessed correctly, there is actually a little desire in Harumi Junko's heart.

If someone like Harumi Junko had completely given up on herself, she would have just married someone at random. Otherwise, she would not have seized this insignificant opportunity at Qingfeng Academy.

Mr. Tsubota's guess was almost the same as Junko Harumi's current situation, except that he didn't guess correctly that Junko Harumi had been going on blind dates before, but each of them ended in failure.

Junko Harumi is a complete pity type!

Chapter 37 The road ahead is bumpy

Junko Harumi walked out of Aomine Academy, and after walking two steps on the street with her head down, she couldn't help but look back at the window with the four Chinese characters "Aomine Academy" on it, which still retained a faint light.

Mr. Tsubota was not in a hurry to leave and it seemed that he still had a lot of things to do.

"I'm so envious of you. You have a goal to strive for..."

The corners of Harumi Junko's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a bitter smile.

The cool night breeze blew her long hair. Even with such an excellent appearance, it could not hide her decadent heart.

Now that she is over 30, does she look like the old lady that students tease about?

At least before getting close to Junko Harumi herself, there had been many little bastards who wanted to chat up her.

But the final result was probably that he changed his words after being shocked by the disappointed aura she exuded, and then ran away while laughing at her.

Life goal!

This is what Junko Harumi lacks now.

Even without the solemn prefix of "life", Junko Harumi has not achieved even a small goal in more than ten years.

After being expelled from her previous cram school, Junko Harumi was in despair.

A failed blind date, facing unemployment, and a life that can no longer be planned, how much of a failure is that!

“I still have a job after all!”

Junko Harumi patted her cheeks and thought, life wasn't too bad!

I have lived for 31 years and have never had a real relationship. Finally, I got a job when I was almost completely defeated in the workplace. Compared with before, I couldn't be luckier!

Although she is so optimistic now, Junko Harumi still has no intention of really planning the rest of her life.

I was unemployed during the Golden Week, and found a job again during the Golden Week. As a semi-independent woman, it’s not a complete failure!

Harumi Junko, be optimistic!

The situation couldn't be worse than this. In Aomine Academy, where the pressure was relatively small compared to her previous academy, Junko Harumi felt that she could still shine and show her value.

Of course, just don’t deal with the student who is preparing for the entrance exam to the University of Tokyo!

Thinking this way, Harumi Junko felt that she had fulfilled her responsibilities as a teacher by helping other students get into relatively good private universities.

At this moment, a boy in a stand-up collar school uniform walked out of the door of the 24-hour convenience store in front of him. He was holding an instant lunch box in his hand. As soon as he walked out of the door, he came into Junko Harumi's sight.

"Ah, a student from the University of Tokyo!"

Junko Harumi looked at the boy wearing glasses and blurted out subconsciously.

Aki Tomoya looked at Harumi Junko on his right with an expressionless face. When he heard the word "Tokyo University student", he coughed as if he was choked.

It is impossible for Aki Tomoya not to know Harumi Junko, the new tutor at his cram school. Especially when this teacher is compared with Mr. Tsubota, her decadence is even more prominent.

Although they didn't have much contact, Aki Tomoya still had a deep impression of her.

"Good evening Harumi-sensei."

Unconsciously, the teacher had added the nickname "Tokyo University student" in his mind, and Aki Tomoya couldn't help laughing at this time.

Facing this Harumi Junko, Aki Tomoya really couldn't treat her as an ordinary teacher.

If we use a typical example to describe Junko Harumi, a failed adult would be a very appropriate description.

"And my name is Tomoya Aki, not Todai-sensei. If Harumi-sensei is a blessing, then I really want to thank you!"

Aki Tomoya said as if he was joking about himself.

As for the new tutor at their cram school, Tomoya Aki no longer knew whether he should have any expectations for her. Beauty is one thing, but ability is another.

As it stands, before approaching her students, Junko Harumi should think about how to control the subtle feeling of frustration in her.

A depressed atmosphere like this will more or less affect the people around you.

"Good evening! Amaki-san!"

Junko Harumi realized that she had said something wrong in front of her students, and her expression suddenly became somewhat self-pitying.

Instead of calling out the other person's name in front of the students, you subconsciously shout out the complaints in your heart. Don't be so rude!

As a teacher, you should set a good example for your students.

Etiquette is essential!

"Todai students...don't let yourself be misunderstood!"

Junko Harumi felt a little depressed. The speaker might not have meant it, but the listener might have taken it seriously. If this name was taken as sarcasm, she really didn't know how to explain it.

It is not the first time that I have left a bad impression on students on the first day of meeting them, and it may not be the last.

In short, if you don’t pay attention, you may not even have the last chance to prove your worth.

Junko Harumi thought that Aomine Academy should not be as stressful as Sanno Academy where she had stayed before, and she had been thinking that maybe she could do well this time.

As a result, his true colors were revealed in front of his students after work on the first day. Just thinking about it, Junko Harumi felt like crying.

I accepted the president's kindness, hoping to seize the opportunity, but at the beginning there was no sign of being able to change my fate.

But in Tomoya Aki's eyes, Junko Harumi's appearance at this moment made him a little scared.

"Harumi-sensei?"

Aki Tomoya called out carefully.

"I'm here, Aki-san!"

Harumi Junko responded stiffly, not realizing that she was already scaring the student in front of her.

Amaki Tomoya looked carefully at Harumi Junko who was pretending to be calm, and asked seriously, "Is it really okay?"

Although she was suddenly cared for by her students, Junko Harumi couldn't be happy at all, because she had noticed that there was something wrong with Tomoya Aki's eyes.

She smiled bitterly and said, "I'm really fine!"

Even though Junko Harumi said this, the pessimism in her heart was already written all over her face!

Akitomo has seen many depressed people, but people like Harumi Junko are rare.

The other party's pessimism made Akito Tomoya couldn't help but wonder how much of a failure this teacher had been in the past.

"Let's not talk about me anymore. Aki-san, why don't you go back now? It's getting late!"

Unable to hide her flaws in front of her students, Junko Harumi could only choose to change the subject.

Being pitied by a student was like dealing a high-multiple critical hit to Junko Harumi.

Rather than asking students to care about teachers, it would be better for teachers to care about students. If he doesn’t go home so late, his family must be worried.

An Yilun raised his hand without hesitation: "I'm about to go back."

Only then did Junko Harumi notice that Tomoya Aki was holding an instant bento box in his hand.

After noticing this detail, Junko Harumi's mind started to work at the same speed as it did in her school days.

This is a great opportunity to demonstrate your good qualities as a teacher!

Chapter 38 Don’t Become Such an Adult! (Additional Update)

The elements are preparation for the exam and instant lunch!

Generally speaking, parents who care about their children will prepare midnight snacks for them to supplement their nutrition before they come home from their evening tutoring.

Take Junko Harumi as an example. When she was preparing and planning for admission to the University of Tokyo, her mother would smile and bring her some gifts to encourage her to keep working hard while she was reviewing at night.

So there are many possible reasons why Tomoya Aki took the instant lunch box home at this moment.

For example, his parents are very busy and have no time to take care of him!

In short, no matter what, it’s definitely right for a teacher to show some concern now.

Think about it carefully. As a teacher, if you see students taking instant lunch boxes home and can show concern for them, it can easily deepen the students' good impression.

The bonus option was right in front of her. Harumi Junko's eyes lit up, and the gloom on her body was swept away. She asked in a kind tone, "Do you want to eat instant bento?"

The subtext is, isn't there anyone at home who prepares a midnight snack for him? Isn't the instant lunch box a bit shabby for a student preparing for an exam?

Tomoya Aki looked at Junko Harumi in surprise. What's wrong with this woman? Why did she suddenly start to trick him?

Unprepared!

"My parents are currently on a business trip, and I'm the only one at home."

Tomoya Aki spoke slowly, following the direction that Junko Harumi was expecting. He wanted to see what this regretful female was up to.

Just as Junko Harumi knew, as a candidate for the entrance exam, Tomoya Aki's mother would prepare some comfort items for him in the evening if his parents were at home.

However, they went on a business trip not long after the Golden Week, so it was normal for Akito to buy a fast food bento to take home after tutoring.

"It's really inconvenient to have no one to take care of you. It's not easy for Amai-san, either!"

Junko Harumi looked as if she could empathize with Tomoya Aki.

Her clumsy concern made Akito Tomoya almost unable to hold back his laughter.

In order to act more like a teacher and a qualified member of society, Junko Harumi was a little clumsy at the moment.
