I save a pathological girl with a twisted love story.

"She worked almost the most part-time jobs in Midori High School. This was one of the key factors that led her to get the library job."

Jun Yokokawa's words conveyed the same message: this matter was almost beyond change.

Natsugiri Kai said, "I will tell Asahi Aoi about this."

“It’s not about telling, Natsugiri,” Yokokawa Jun said. “It’s about persuading. Only you can easily persuade Asahi Aoi, after all, she likes you a lot, doesn’t she?”

"Teacher Chun, you're saying that Asahi is like an appendage to me."

Xia Wuzhao shook her head; "Even if you say so, I don't have the confidence to persuade Asahi Aoi. So, I can only tell her about it. As for what decision Asahi Aoi will make, no one knows."

"Then I'll leave it to you, Xia Wu."

Jun Yokokawa was smoking a cigarette, looking very melancholy.

Xia Wuzhao, however, said to her, "Jun-sensei, do you know what Tokisaka Chiharu has been doing lately?"

"I don't know," Jun Yokokawa said, shaking his head. "I'm not very familiar with Chiharu Tokisaka."

"She recently started a firm to help other students by doing small things for them and earning a fee."

Natsugiri Kai said, "If Tokisaka Chiharu can make money from this, will the situation change?"

"How could a firm like this possibly make money, Xia Wu?"

Jun Yokokawa said helplessly, "Basically, you can't make any money."

"Then, what if?"

Xia Wuzhao looked at her teacher.

Jun Yokokawa thought for a moment, then said to Kai Natsugiri, "How about a week? If Chiharu Tokisaka's agency can do a great job before the school festival ends, then the school might change its mind."

Xia Wuzhao asked, "What exactly does 'vivid and colorful' mean?"

"I probably get four or five requests a week," Jun Yokokawa thought. "At least enough to support myself."

Xia Wuzhao thought for a moment: "For one request, Tokisaka Chiharu charges a maximum of 3,000 yen. With 45 requests a week, that's a maximum of 20 a month. That's 60,000 yen. That's not enough to make a living, Jun-sensei."

Jun Yokokawa looked at Kai Natsugiri and said, "Yes, I know about this. But it's probably impossible to have four or five requests in one day."

"That's why I relaxed the restrictions. No matter what you do, how many jobs you accept, or how much you charge for each job, as long as you can make a living, that's fine."

Xia Wuzhao thought for a moment: "Then, how about giving the library's staff dormitory to Tokisaka Chiharu? That way, Tokisaka's pressure will be greatly reduced."

"No."

Jun Yokokawa shook his head: "The library's staff dormitory must be linked to the position of librarian. Otherwise, others will take advantage of this precedent to do things."

"I'm so sorry, Natsugiri."

“I understand.” Xia Wuzhao nodded. “Then, Ms. Chun, could you apply for an activity room? That would make things easier for her agency.”

“No problem,” Jun Yokokawa said with a smile. “Isn’t there an empty classroom next to your literature club? That classroom will do. All you need to do is have Chiharu Tokisaka fill out an application form.”

Xia Wuzhao nodded and said, "I'll take my leave now."

Jun Yokokawa waved his hand: "Goodbye, Natsugiri."

After Xia Wuzhao left the reception room, Yokokawa Junsai sighed softly again.

"This is such a hassle."

Back in the classroom, Xia Wuzhao didn't tell Asahi Aoi about it right away.

He was still thinking about how to say it.

He wasn't just thinking about talking to Aoi Asahi; he was also considering how to get Chiharu Tokisaka to accept his and others' help.

"But Tokisaka is someone who is very confident in front of others. If I were to say it directly, she would probably refuse without hesitation."

When it was lunchtime, all three of them were in the literary society.

After thinking for a moment, Xia Wuzhao said to Asahi Aoi, "Today, there's something the teacher wants me to tell you."

"What is it, Natsugiri?" Asahi Aoi looked at Natsugiri Kai curiously.

"Was it after the second period today?" Chiho wondered. "I remember you stayed there for a long time after Yokokawa-sensei called you out."

"Yes, it's what Yokokawa-sensei told me."

Xia Wuzhao nodded.

"Oh, is it about the cultural festival?" Aoi Asahi looked at Kai Natsugiri with a hint of confusion.

"No, it's about you."

"About me?" Aoi Asahi was a little confused; "Did I get into some trouble? Or do they want me to do something?"

"It's about the librarian position," Xia Wuzhao said softly, looking at the curious Asahi Aoi in front of her. "The school wants to give this position to someone else."

"Give it to someone else?"

Aoi Asahi was taken aback, and her heart sank considerably.

Did I do something wrong?

The girl looked at Xia Wuzhao: "Where is my job located? Am I not doing it well enough?"

"No."

Xia Wuzhao said, "You did a very good job as a librarian. There were no problems. This incident was due to other reasons."

"What is it?"

Asahi Aoi said softly, "Don't hesitate like this, Natsugiri. I'm not a fragile girl. Just tell me, I can handle it."

Xia Wuzhao looked at the girl, whose hair shimmered in the sunlight.

And something flickered in those pupils.

“Because the school thinks you no longer need this job,” Xia Wuzhao said. “They think you’ve already escaped poverty. So, this job should be given to someone who needs it more.”

"Me? Have I escaped poverty?"

Aoi was taken aback for a moment, but she wasn't angry.

Xia Wuzhao looked at Asahi Aoi and said to her, "Because you've always lived in my house, not in the staff dormitory, that's why people think you've escaped poverty and started pursuing a better quality of life."

Aoi couldn't help but smile.

"If that's how it is, then maybe I really have escaped poverty."

"When exactly did I escape poverty? Those days of poverty and suffering seem like they were so long ago, so long that my memory is already a bit blurry."

"I can accept that."

Aoi smiled slightly: "If there really is someone who needs it more than I do, then it seems I'll have to live in your house forever from now on."

Xia Wuzhao said, "It doesn't matter, it's just empty anyway."

Aoi Asahi could only smile helplessly at this.

Chiho, resting her chin on her fingers beside her, said with a smile, "Aoi, what you're saying sounds like you're going to become Natsugiri Kai's wife. — Living in his house forever and all that, it's just too ambiguous."

"Actually, my house is also very big, you can live in my house too."

Despite saying that, Aoi Asahi just rolled her eyes at Chiho.

“Living at Natsugiri’s house makes it easier for me to find a job. After all, it’s near the mountain area. If I were to stay at your house, Chiho, I would always feel embarrassed. After all, your house is just too luxurious, and anyone would feel uncomfortable there.”

"Hehe. Aoi, do you also feel reserved?"

Chiho asked with great interest.

“Yes, that’s right. I also feel awkward.” Aoi nodded without hesitation.

"I don't believe it." Chiho gave a mischievous smile. "I think you just want to live in Natsugiri's house."

This time, Aoi finally ignored Chiho and instead asked Natsugiri Kai, "Who is going to become the new librarian? Perhaps I can share my experience with her."

"It's Chiharu."

Natsugiri Kai said to Asahi Aoi, "Chiharu is going to become the new librarian, but it's not certain yet."

"Chiharu?" Aoi Asahi was somewhat surprised, so Chiharu took her place, but then she heard Natsugiri Kai's last words.

She asked again, "Uncertain? What do you mean?"

After glancing at the bright sunshine outside, Xia Wuzhao told them everything in detail.

After listening, Aoi Asahi fell silent for a moment.

She shook her head and said to Xia Wuzhao, "Xia Wu, thank you. But I feel okay. Even if I lost my job, I should be able to find other jobs."

"Tokisaka-senpai hasn't been able to find a job lately. If she could get this job, it would be a great help to her."

"So, I'll give this position to Tokisaka-senpai."

The girl said this.

"Although I really don't want to lose my job, I'm willing to do it if I can help Tokisaka-senpai."

"After all, Tokisaka-senpai has been in a lot of pain lately, a lot of pain."

That's what Aoi Asahi was thinking.

Chiho, standing to the side, seemed to enjoy the spectacle and said, "I can talk to the school and let Aoi continue as the librarian."

"Chiho!"

Aoi suddenly called out Chiho's name seriously, and she shook her head firmly but slowly: "Don't do that, Chiho."

“I am not greedy for the librarian’s pay. I don’t need Chiho, and there’s no need for you to help me this way.”

Xia Wuzhao watched this scene silently and took a sip of juice.

"Do you think you're great, Asahi?"

Xia Wuzhao said this suddenly, his voice somewhat cold.

What are you talking about to yourself?

Asahi looked at Natsugiri Kai in front of her and pursed her lips.

“I will not change my mind, Xiawu.”

The girl was very determined.

Looking at the trees swaying in the wind outside the window, Xia Wuzhao said, "That's just your opinion. Haven't you considered Chiharu Tokisaka's feelings?"

"Tokisaka-senpai should be very happy."

“How arrogant! Are you pitying Chiharu Tokisaka?” Natsugiri Kai looked at Aoi Asahi and said, “You know what? A philosopher once said that so-called pity is nothing but looking down from a high place.”

"Tokisaka Chiharu is a very proud person. If you really just give up this librarian job to Tokisaka on your own initiative..."

"Chiharu Tokisaka won't thank you; instead, she'll find it troublesome."

Xia Wuzhao said, "Because she also has self-respect. She wants to rely on her own abilities to find her way to the future."

"Your humility is just an unconscious way of treating Chiharu Tokisaka as a poor and pitiful person."

Hearing Xia Wuzhao's words, Asahi Aoi fell silent for a moment.

She looked at Xia Wuzhao: "So, was it wrong of me to help like this?"

"Yes, I was wrong."

Xia Wuzhao said without hesitation.

Aoi smiled for no apparent reason.

"Natsumori, you did this to me before too."

Smoothing her hair, Aoi Asahi said softly, "Then, shall we ask Tokisaka-senpai after school?"

"I think she won't refuse."

At this moment, Xia Wuzhao suddenly looked at Chiho and asked, "What do you think?"

Chiho smiled and said, "I won't join your argument."

Chapter 258 That indescribable thing of happiness and sorrow [4k]

When school was over, the group stopped Chiharu Tokisaka.

"Ok?"
