I save a pathological girl with a twisted love story.

"Xia Wuzhao, come out here too. Tell me what happened later."

She also brought Xia Wuzhao out, which made the others somewhat unhappy.

They all felt that Yokokawa-sensei was protecting Asakawa Yo, because Natsugiri Kai and Asakawa Yo were neighbors, so she would definitely say some nice things about her.

However, no one brought it up. They just watched silently as the two followed Yokokawa Jun toward the reception room, and then the classroom suddenly fell silent again.

Aoi Asahi watched this scene without saying a word.

Chiho asked her, "Aoi, why didn't you stop her just now?"

Aoi thought for a moment, then said in a low voice, "What reason do I have to stop it? Whether it's stopping others or stopping Asakawa Yo, it's not the right answer."

"Moreover, just by looking at Asakawa Yo's eyes just now, I understood her resolve."

"So, for better or for worse, I won't stop her."

Chiho just smiled when she heard that.

However, they didn't say anything.

As they headed towards the guest room, Jun Yokokawa sighed repeatedly. Yo Asakawa, however, walked in the early summer sunlight, completely oblivious to the noise.

She even seemed to enjoy the sunshine, and even brushed her bangs aside.

"Alright, Natsume, you wait outside." In front of the reception room, Yokokawa Jun said to Natsume Kai, "I'll ask you later."

Xia Wuzhao naturally didn't object; she simply stood leaning against the wall.

Asakawa Yo glanced at him, then walked into the reception room with Yokokawa Jun.

Sitting on the sofa, Jun Yokokawa pointed to the seat opposite him, gesturing for Yo Asakawa to sit down.

"Have you encountered any difficulties recently?"

She asked Asakawa Yo.

After Asakawa Yo sat up straight, she said, "No."

"Really not?" Jun Yokokawa covered his forehead. "If you have any difficulties, perhaps I can help you solve them."

—The important thing is that it can help you reduce your punishment.

Jun Yokokawa was thinking about these things, but he couldn't say them out loud.

"Then why would you deliberately try to annoy the teacher during class?"

"It wasn't intentional," Asakawa Yo said. "I just wanted to say those things, so I said them. I'm sorry if I made the teacher angry."

“But these words made the teacher very angry,” Jun Yokokawa said. “Back then, if you had just admitted your mistake and made up an excuse, this wouldn’t have happened.”

"I know."

Asakawa Yo used this sentence to shut Yokokawa Jun up.

So, wasn't this intentional?

But seeing the determined look on Asakawa Yo's face, Yokokawa Jun had no choice but to ask other questions: "What you just did was very dangerous. Whether it damaged the blackboard or injured someone else, it would be a lot of trouble."

"Ah."

Asakawa Yo did not defend herself or refute the argument.

He simply admitted it in a perfunctory manner.

Seeing this, Jun Yokokawa sighed helplessly and said, "Are you some kind of martyr preparing to die? You have such a determined expression."

“It’s not that I think there’s nothing wrong with it, it’s just that I feel I have to do it, I have no other choice.”

Asakawa Yo said those words.

“Then the punishment might be severe,” Yokokawa Jun said, but Asakawa Yo was not afraid at all and just listened quietly.

“You kids, really,” she said. “Back then, we were always terrified when we heard we were going to be punished, sigh.”

With a long sigh, Jun Yokokawa tapped the table.

"Then let's take a week off."

She said to Asakawa Yo, "I'll ask you for a sick leave so you can rest for a week. Go out and relax this week, and calm down."

“Okay.” Asakawa Yo agreed immediately. She said, “I’m not afraid of punishment. I don’t think children are afraid of punishment either. They’re just afraid of what’s behind the punishment.”

"But I'm not afraid."

After she finished speaking, she stood up and bowed slightly to Jun Yokokawa: "I'm sorry to have troubled you, teacher."

"Alright, go and call Xia Wuzhao in."

Jun Yokokawa waved his hand, signaling Yo Asakawa to leave.

After Xia Wuzhao came in, she closed the door again.

Jun Yokokawa said to Kai Natsugiri, "I've decided to suspend Asakawa Yo from classes for a week. What do you think?"

Chapter 448 Something as Silent as an Oil Painting

What should I do?

That's a good question.

"Teacher, what do you think I should think about this?"

Instead, Natsumi asked Yokokawa Jun a question.

Jun Yokokawa looked at Kai Natsugiri with a helpless expression: "You could have just said it directly."

"If I were to give a specific opinion, I would say that I have no opinion at all."

Xia Wuzhao seemed somewhat nonchalant: "Since you've already decided how to punish her, why should I defend her?"

Jun Yokokawa looked somewhat complicated and tapped the table: "Weren't you two on good terms? I thought you would plead for her and change the current punishment to something else."

"You know that if school punishments affect your family, the consequences can be quite severe."

She now appears to be the one pleading for mercy.

Xia Wuzhao said, "Do you think Asakawa Yo doesn't know about this, teacher? No, she does know."

"Even knowing that, she still did it. She had enough determination and will to bear the consequences; she was aware of that."

"Even knowing she would be punished like that, she still did it. That was her own choice, so why should I stop her?"

"There's no reason, teacher."

Xia Wuzhao was in a good mood, so she talked a lot.

"Eh--"

Jun Yokokawa sighed, somewhat annoyed: "What you're saying is all unrealistic. The reality is that if Yo Asakawa were tonight, she might be punished by her own mother."

"This has nothing to do with me."

Xia Wuzhao answered calmly.

—Yokokawa Jun finally stopped saying anything, only looking somewhat dejected.

Xia Wuzhao just watched for a while before saying, "If there's nothing else, I'll head back to the classroom now."

Jun Yokokawa waved casually and didn't look at Natsugiri Kai.

She just seemed a little melancholy.

When Xia Wuzhao returned to the classroom, everyone around him looked at him curiously.

Perhaps they were curious about Asakawa Yo's fate.

For some reason, Asakawa Yo left earlier, carrying her schoolbag.

"How is it?" Aoi Asahi asked Natsugiri Kai softly.

“She’s been suspended from school,” Xia Wuzhao said calmly. “Qianchuan Yao has been suspended for seven days.”

Aoi was a little worried, but there were many things she couldn't say right now.

So she sent a message to Xia Wuzhao on her phone.

"Let's go see Asakawa Yo tonight."

"If Asakawa's mother is really angry, then we can try to calm her down a bit."

Xia Wuzhao did not refuse, but simply replied with an "okay".

Chiho didn't care about Asakawa Yo's affairs; she only cared about Natsugiri Kai.

However, she doesn't have any good solutions right now.

"Do we have to start all over again?"

Chiho thought to herself helplessly.

After taking her schoolbag, Asakawa Yo didn't go straight home. Instead, she returned to the clubroom and sat down to continue eating the remaining cookies.

"I should be able to surprise people now, right?"

As the girl thought this, a sweet feeling welled up inside her.

She turned on the air conditioner and sat near the vent. Soon, the cool air made Asakawa Yo squint.

Even when you sit here, the sun can still shine through the glass and onto you, bringing a certain heat and warmth.

It mingled with the cool air blown out by the air conditioner.

"That's great."

Asakawa Yo squinted, feeling that there was nothing more comfortable in the world than this.

After finishing the cookies, she drank a little water.

With nothing to do, she could only take advantage of her sleepiness and lie down on the table.

"Take a nap."

Thinking this, she closed her eyes.

This is the scene that Xia Wuzhao saw when she pushed open the door after school.

Her long hair meandered like vines, and the girl slept peacefully and beautifully.

Apart from the sound of the air conditioner blowing air, the entire department was as quiet as an oil painting.

Even the sound of Xia Wuzhao opening the door didn't wake her.

Xia Wuzhao didn't take it to heart. She found a place to sit down and started flipping through the books.

Perhaps because of the excessive use of air conditioning, Asakawa Yo felt she hadn't rested well this time.

My arms felt numb and my head was a little dizzy.

I opened my eyes groggily, feeling as if a huge mountain was pressing down on me.

"Well--"

She slowly raised her head, rubbing her forehead, and looked to the side.

But I was startled.

"What are you doing here?" she asked, somewhat dazed.

"It's already time for school to let out." Xia Wuzhao pointed to the sky outside the window.

"Oh." Asakawa Yo then realized she had said something foolish.

She stood up and left the room, and as soon as she stepped out, she felt sweat pouring down her body.

He frowned and quickly walked to the sink.

After washing up briefly, I rinsed my numb arms and cheeks with cold water.

It took her a while before she felt her discomfort disappear.

Shaking her hands, Asakawa Yo returned to the clubroom. Once inside, she felt much more comfortable.

Sitting at the table, she secretly glanced at Xia Wuzhao.

She wanted to see how Xia Wuzhao would praise her, but Xia Wuzhao showed no intention of praising her at all.

He tapped on the table, making a "thump-thump" sound.
