It looked like both of them had suffered some setbacks.

Tamamonomae couldn't help but be a little surprised.

This... She just went to make a cup of tea, what on earth happened?

"Nothing, just talking about some depressing topics. Sorry for bringing up such unpleasant things and making you uncomfortable, Senior."

Bai Yingui shook his head, then calmed down and said.

Well, as expected, her brother is an outlier.

Even Kasumigaoka Utaha, who had excellent grades, showed the same autistic expression after hearing her words.

In this way, Bai Yingui felt relieved, not because she was too weak, but because Takenaka Shiraha was too strong!

Even Kasumigaoka Utaha was shocked by Takenaka Shiraha's situation, so there is nothing to be afraid of!

The problem is... the influence that Takenaka Shiraha had on her is still there...

Even if Takenaka Shiraha graduates in the future, Shirogane Kei may continue to be influenced by Takenaka Shiraha.

After all, all the students in the first year of high school knew the name of Takenaka Shiraha.

"Perhaps... repeating a grade is a good option?"

Bai Yingui couldn't help but think to himself, but then he rejected the idea.

It's okay to joke about it, but it would be so embarrassing if I really failed a grade.

Moreover, Shuchiin Academy is very concerned about the admission rate. High school is compulsory education, and repeating a grade is only a last resort.

The rate of admission to higher education is still very important for schools. It affects the quality of teaching and the teaching environment, which in turn affects parents' choices.

"Well, let's change the subject."

Kasumigaoka Utaha coughed dryly and then spoke.

Fortunately, Bai Yingui did not have any resentment towards her because if she hadn't mentioned Bai Yingui's grades, Bai Yingui would not have thought of this despairing topic.

"This is the black tea I brewed. Just let me know when you're done."

Tamamonomae felt that she didn't quite understand the topic the two were talking about, so she simply decided not to participate and handed the teacup in her hand to Kasumigaoka Utaha.

"Thank you."

Kasumigaoka Utaha slowly took the tea and said with a smile.

Tamamonomae did not leave, but looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha with anticipation.

It seems that he is waiting for Kasumigaoka Utaha's evaluation.

Noticing Tamamonomae's gaze, Kasumigaoka Utaha was stunned for a moment, then quickly understood what was happening. She brought the teacup in her hand to her lips and took a sip.

"The taste is rich and mellow, and the water temperature and tea leaves are controlled just right. Xiaoyu's tea-making skills are really admirable. I want to learn from her."

Kasumigaoka Utaha licked her lips, slowly placed the teacup on the coffee table, and spoke to Tamamonomae beside her with a tone of amazement and admiration.

These words were not meant to compliment Tamamonomae, but rather to express her feeling that Tamamonomae's tea art was indeed quite amazing.

Unlike his horrible cooking skills, Tamamonomae was very disciplined when it came to tea art, and he followed the procedures honestly.

Therefore, Tamamonomae's tea art is indeed outstanding.

If she could cook honestly, her cooking skills wouldn't necessarily be bad.

Unfortunately, when Tamamonomae was cooking, she would always instinctively come up with a lot of ideas that were incredible.

"Thank you... Thank you for your affirmation! I will continue to work hard! Then I won't bother you anymore."

After hearing the high affirmation and praise from Kasumigaoka Utaha, Tamamonomae said excitedly.

I wanted to address Kasumigaoka Utaha, but found it a little difficult to do so. I could only skip the address, say hello, and then turned and left the living room.

"Although Sister Xiaoyu's cooking skills are a little... hard to describe, she is indeed very talented in making tea. Now my brother doesn't let me make tea anymore. He always asks Sister Xiaoyu to do it."

Bai Yingui said somewhat depressed, with a hint of uncontrollable disappointment in his words.

In the past, Takenaka Shiraha would often ask Shirogane Kei to help him make tea.

However, since Tamamonomae came into being, one reason was that Tamamonomae's tea art was better than Shirogane Kei's, and the other was that Tamamonomae was always very proactive, so Takenaka Shiraha gradually stopped asking Shirogane Kei for help and always asked Tamamonomae to make tea.

“Hmm…I see…”

Kasumigaoka Utaha couldn't help but smile awkwardly, and felt a little depressed inside.

Why does this sister-in-law always give her problems?

Kasumigaoka Utaha naturally hopes to have a good relationship with Shirogane Kei, but the problem is that Shirogane Kei doesn't give her this opportunity at all!

Every time Shirogane Kei says something like this, it makes Kasumigaoka Utaha a little difficult.

The key point is that she had no idea that her words would have such a huge impact on Bai Yingui's emotions.

Who could have imagined that just making tea would bring such a blow to Bai Yingui!

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't say such spoiling words, it's just that stupid brother always makes me feel frustrated and makes the seniors laugh at me."

Noticing Kasumigaoka Utaha's embarrassment, Shirogane Kei said with a smile, a hint of melancholy on his face.

"No, Xiaogui is very cute."

Kasumigaoka Utaha shook her head and said with a smile.

It was not simply to please her sister-in-law. In Kasumigaoka Utaha's opinion, Shirogane Kei was indeed very cute.

But unfortunately, she couldn't completely empathize with Bai Yingui's feelings.

Apart from being a little depressed about the evilness of Takenaka Baiyu, she couldn't feel anything else.

Because generally speaking, she is the child of other people's families and is used as an object of comparison.

After all, she is very outstanding in both literary attainments and academic performance.

As a high school student, it is very difficult to become a novelist. Even though she is a novelist... her novel is not very popular. It is with the help of Takenaka Shiraha that she has successfully become a novelist without having to worry too much about being cancelled.

However, she is a novelist after all, and compared to many of her peers, she is an outstanding person.

"is it?"

Hearing the praise from Kasumigaoka Utaha, Shirogane Kei asked with some joy.

"um, yes."

Seeing that Shirogane Kei was so easily satisfied, a smile appeared on Kasumigaoka Utaha's face, and she nodded slightly and said.

"Speaking of which, how is Senpai's relationship with my brother? This is the first time he has taken the initiative to bring a girl to his house, except for Kirisu-sensei."

Immediately, Shirogane Kei looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha with some curiosity and asked.

Strictly speaking, apart from the teacher Madoka Kirisu, Kasumigaoka Utaha was the first girl that Shiraha Takenaka brought home.

Of course, Kei Shirogane was not very clear whether it was Takenaka Shiraha or Kasumigaoka Utaha who took the initiative.

Because given Takenaka Shiraha's personality, he probably wouldn't refuse if Kasumigaoka Utaha proposed it.

However, under normal circumstances and historical circumstances, this was indeed the first time that Takenaka Shiraha took the initiative to bring a girl home.

The last time Kaguya Shinomiya and Chika Fujiwara came was only because of an agreement between Kei Shirogane and Moe Fujiwara, and Kaguya Shinomiya came uninvited.

"Really? It seems I am still very honored. The relationship between Takenaka-kun and I is that of a senior and a junior. If I must say, the relationship between us is more complicated than that between ordinary seniors and juniors."

Hearing what Shirogane Kei said, Kasumigaoka Utaha's face showed a very bright smile, and she said with a hint of joy.

Unexpectedly, she was the first person to be invited to Takenaka Shiraha's home as a guest.

Of course, it cannot be said that it was entirely Takenaka Shiraha who took the initiative. It was Kasumigaoka Utaha who mentioned to Takenaka Shiraha that she was about to go on a school trip.

Then Takenaka Shiraha took advantage of the situation and asked if he wanted to invite her to be his guest as a farewell gift.

Of course, the person who took the initiative to invite and determine the location was Takenaka Shiraha himself.

"What kind of complicated relationship?"

After hearing what Kasumigaoka Utaha said, Shirogane Kei asked with a little nervousness.

Takenaka Shiraha never mentioned Kasumigaoka Utaha's name or anything like that in front of Shirogane Kei, he just mentioned some things, but Shirogane Kei couldn't just take it for granted.

Now that Kasumigaoka Utaha said that the relationship between the two of them is a bit complicated, Shirogane Kei can't help but feel a little worried.

[Could it be that the two of them are actually in that kind of relationship?! Doesn’t that mean…that the times when my brother didn’t come home at night, he was doing that with this senior?! Impossible, impossible, this is absolutely impossible!]

For a moment, Bai Yingui was very panicked.

This was the person that Takenaka Shiraha had actively invited to his home. If he said that there was something very special between the two of them, a relationship that had reached that level, although Shirogane Kei could not accept it, he was not unbelievable.

"Besides that, we are colleagues because we work in the same cafe. And in my secondary job, Takenaka-kun has also provided me with a lot of help. He can be considered as both a teacher and a friend. So in general, although we are seniors and juniors in the academy, we are actually equals."

Kasumigaoka Utaha said with a smile, a hint of satisfaction on her face.

If Bai Yinggui hadn't asked, she would never have thought that the bond between her and Takenaka Shiraha was so deep.

It seems that the fate and relationship between her and Takenaka Shirayuki are very strong, and the chances of the two of them getting married in the future are very high!

In this case, it is even more necessary to establish a good relationship with my sister-in-law.

"That's it? That's it?"

Shirogane Kei, who was originally worried, couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief and widened his eyes after hearing Kasumigaoka Utaha's explanation...

Chapter 319: As long as you are brave enough, the teacher will take maternity leave!

Well~! I've made myself worry for nothing again.

Bai Yingui felt a little relieved.

It seems that the relationship between Takenaka Shiraha and Kasumigaoka Utaha is just a little closer than expected.

But strictly speaking, it is still far from the point where the dust has settled and people have to accept their fate.

Firstly, the two of them did not establish a romantic relationship, and secondly, they did not develop a deeper bond.

"Huh? What happened?"

Seeing that Shirogane Kei breathed a sigh of relief and his expression became much more natural, Kasumigaoka Utaha asked with some confusion.

She vaguely felt that there was some change in Bai Yingui's aura.

If she had to say something, it was that before, she felt that Bai Yingui seemed a little worried and nervous, but now Bai Yingui seemed to have relaxed all of a sudden.

"Nothing, it turns out that my brother and Senior have such a relationship, no wonder he took the initiative to invite Senior to his home as a guest."

Bai Yingui shook his head and said with a smile.

[I found that my worry about you was in vain. I thought it was the final boss, but it turned out to be just an elite monster. ]

Bai Yingui naturally couldn't say such sincere words.

If that were the case, it would seem that I was really impolite.

What's more, this is not a real game. What if the elite monster really becomes the final boss in the future?

Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled but didn't say anything, but the smile on her face was brighter than before.

She did not see Bai Yingui's true thoughts, but mistakenly thought that she had gained recognition from her sister-in-law, and her heart was filled with joy.

"What are you two talking about? You look so happy."

Takenaka Shiraha's voice came from the side.

Looking at Kei Shirogane and Utaha Kasumigaoka getting along happily on the sofa, Shiraha Takenaka couldn't help but feel relieved.

It seems that Kei Shirogane and Utaha Kasumigaoka get along pretty well. He was a little worried just now. It would be a headache if the senior was too sharp-tongued and couldn't get along well with Kei Shirogane.

"Nothing, just talking about some happy things."

Bai Yingui shook his head and said calmly.

However, there was a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes when he looked at Takenaka Baiyu.

Kei Shirogane doesn't mind Takenaka Shiraha bringing back someone else - provided that he is a male.

Bai Yingui was still very dissatisfied that his father brought back a girl, especially such a beautiful girl.

"Is that so? Then continue."

Seeing this, Takenaka Baiyu did not ask any further questions, but sat directly next to Baiyingui.
