The heroines want love

"Sorry, I was just kidding. As an apology, I'll buy you a drink tomorrow."

Yu Asakura chose to apologize.

Is this kid too gullible? He seems stupid.

"I knew you were joking." Yuigahama Yui intertwined her fingers to ease the embarrassment in her heart.

She was really surprised by the sudden confession from someone who was usually her friend.

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at her shy appearance and reminded her: "Yuigahama-san, it is not a good idea to choose a partner based on a man's appearance. You should be more careful in choosing a lover."

"I didn't want to agree just now." Yui's face flushed slightly and said: "Xiaoyou has many advantages, for example, he is very gentle."

"Gentleness. If a man has no other advantages, people usually use [gentleness] to praise him." Yukinoshita Yukino smiled and said, "Asakura, you are very gentle."

It's more of a sarcasm than a compliment.

"In an island country where male chauvinism is prevalent, men like me are rare."

He countered the opponent's moves, but was still at a disadvantage.

"Only feudal society would have such a deformed product as the harem. Objectifying women is a way of oppressing them. This is also male chauvinism."

She pressed on to win.

"Minister Yukinoshita, you are the one oppressing me right now. Your sharp tongue is not a virtue."

He fought back reluctantly.

"If you want me to like you, you should be able to accept this level of shortcomings, right?"

Attacking the city is the next step, attacking the heart is the top step.

"I can accept it, but as the saying goes, you get what you pay for. Minister, you should give me some sweetness, right?"

At this point, offense and defense have changed!

"Sweetness? Being able to stay in the same club with a beautiful girl like me is already the biggest sweetness for you."

Does she seem a little narcissistic?

After a battle, the two sides barely ended in a draw!

"How interesting! Is this how the club's activities are conducted?"

Yuigahama Yui's eyes sparkled as she gossiped, "Why did Xiaoyou want Xiaoxue to like him?"

"He refused to accept it," Yukino explained simply.

"She doesn't want to." Asakura Yu was equally concise.

"For a boy like you, there will always be at least one girl on earth who likes you. You can rest assured about that."

"Time will tell. There won't be just one person who likes me."

Yuigahama Yui looked at the two of them.

One look to the left, one look to the right.

"You two have such a good relationship~"

She always subconsciously caters to others, which makes me a little envious.

Chapter 10 Achilles’ Heel

In the cooking class, the first commission of the service club is going smoothly.

"So, why did you teach her to cook like this?"

Yukinoshita Yukino seemed not to be used to this sudden commission.

"I'm not good at cooking and I'm afraid of making a fool of myself in the cooking class, so we came here to teach Yui how to cook. Director Yukinoshita, you clearly agreed very readily just now, what's wrong, are you going back on your word?"

Yukino held her temple with her right hand, looking at Asakura Yuu who was holding Yuigahama Yui in his arms and teaching her how to cook, and she felt like cursing.

Have you ever seen people taught like this?

Yuigahama-san, you too blushed when your wrist was held. I admit that he can indeed be called handsome, but isn't your reaction too exaggerated?

At this moment, in Yukinoshita's eyes, Yuigahama Yui has become a superficial woman who only makes friends based on looks.

"This isn't the way to teach cooking, right?"

"It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. Minister Yukinoshita, I am following your instructions."

Yukino glanced at the two bodies entangled together.

You call this teaching a man to fish?

“There is no shortcut to cooking. Only through repeated practice and hard work can you achieve progress.”

"I don't deny that, but tomorrow is the cooking class. Can you make a satisfactory dish just by your own efforts?" Asakura Yu whispered in Yuigahama Yui's ear, "Yes, you should use the cat's claw-like gesture when cutting vegetables, so that you won't get hurt..."

"I don't think these basic knowledge are necessary..." Yukinoshita Yukino said halfway, looking at Yuigahama Yui's unfamiliar movements, and approved of his approach.

This is no longer a cooking novice, this is a cooking idiot!

"Yuigahama-san, can I ask how you spent your home economics class in junior high school?"

“…Stand aside and watch, and sometimes help wash the vegetables.”

She gave the answer that Yukino expected.

"But I did study hard in sewing classes, but I don't have confidence in cooking," Yuigahama Yui added.

She makes some small accessories at home.

"I can do everything else, but I'm not confident in cooking." Yukinoshita Yukino put her right hand on her chin and thought, "Have you practiced at home?"

"Yes. But it hasn't been going well."

“It’s like a congenital defect.”

What she said was excessive.

"But it doesn't matter."

Yukino continued, "I have always believed that hard work can make up for the difference in talent. Yuigahama-san, what you lack is the time to work hard."

“Have you ever heard of the 1-hour rule?”

Asakura Yuu took over her words:

“The reason why geniuses are considered extraordinary is not because they are born with extraordinary talents, but because they have made continuous efforts. 1 hours of hard work is necessary for anyone to go from ordinary to world-class masters.”

"Although Asakura talks nonsense every day, he does know a lot."

Yukinoshita Yukino affirmed, "Ten thousand hours, judging by eight hours a day, five years is enough for you to go from a cooking novice to a cooking expert."

Yuigahama Yui was stunned after hearing this.

"really?"

"Really." Yukinoshita Yukino nodded.

"But ten thousand hours is too many." Yuigahama Yui felt the warmth of Asakura Yu's palm and her heart beat fast.

She couldn't think about cooking anymore.

[Yuigahama Yui's favorability +2, points +2000]

"Tomorrow's class will be about stewing. The process is not complicated and will not require ten thousand hours of effort." Asakura Yu let go of Yuigahama Yui's hand.

He was not prepared to teach step by step.

Moreover, the favorability increased so quickly that he was a little scared.

The other girls increased their favorability points little by little, but Yuigahama Yui was different. She increased it by two points each time.

If it was just this, then Asakura could still accept it, but the most important point! She would not lower her favorability!

Even though Asakura just said that he was a man who wanted to have a harem, and even did such a scumbag thing as falsely confessing his love to Yui, her favorability towards him did not decrease.

First of all, excluding the possibility that the other party has a physiological defect in the brain, there is basically no one with a bad brain who can enter Sobu High School. Regardless of emotional intelligence, the IQ must be up to standard. After all, this is a key high school in Chiba Prefecture.

What is the reason?

Best answer: I don’t know.

Asakura Yu himself didn't know why her favorability increased so quickly, even though he thought he was pretty and ranked among the best in the island country. But such a sudden gift also caught him off guard.

Anyway, let's put a stop to the plan of earning points from Yuigahama Yui for now.

"Yes, it doesn't need to be cut too small. But this piece is a bit big, and it's not easy to absorb the flavor." Asakura Yu stood beside her and continued to give instructions.

Yukinoshita Yukino watched the two people distance themselves from each other and felt that this commission was much more normal.

However, she was still a little confused about the reason why Yuigahama Yui asked her to do this.

"Yuigahama-san, why are you so afraid of making a fool of yourself in cooking class?"

“…Eh? Because if I don’t know how to do something that everyone else does… I’ll seem like a loner, right?” Yuigahama Yui had no idea why or why she asked this question.

It's normal to be afraid of making a fool of yourself, right?

Does anyone want to be teased and laughed at by others?

"I'm not denying your current efforts, but I think it's meaningless to be afraid of your shortcomings being exposed." Yukino looked at Asakura Yuu: "A person's attractiveness is not judged by his or her strengths and weaknesses, but by his or her personality charm."

“Even Achilles, the hero in Greek mythology, had a heel weakness, but this did not hinder his charm as a hero.”

“If you care too much about what people around you think, you will become timid and unable to show your personal charm.”

If Achilles had always been concerned about and protected his heel, and had been distracted even on the battlefield, would he still be so brave?

Yukinoshita Yukino's meaning was very clear, at least Asakura Yu understood it.

'Don't worry about other people, just be yourself.'

She was telling Yuigahama Yui in a roundabout way not to deal with people by trying to please others.

It can be said that he has a very high emotional intelligence.

"I know. I always try to please others subconsciously. I can't change it after observing their expressions for a long time." Yui put down the kitchen knife and looked at Yukino, with envy in her tone: "Xiaoxue can do what she wants, just like the white lotus on the snowy mountain, super handsome, but I really can't do it."

Asakura Yuu interrupted the topic: "In fact, moderate observation of people's expressions is a very good skill. It can be used as a lubricant to prevent the atmosphere from becoming cold during a conversation."

But if you always watch other people's actions and do things according to other people's instructions, that is not high emotional intelligence, but flattery...

After being in the current group for more than half a month, Asakura Yu discovered that Yuigahama Yui never refused others.

Even if they refuse, they will probably do so in an extremely humble manner.

"If you can't change it by yourself, then let's entrust it to the Service Club." Asakura Yuu said and looked at Yukino: "Captain Yukinoshita, what do you think?"

Yukinoshita Yukino nodded, resting her right hand on her chin.

I thought: "Let's take this commission as the ultimate goal of this semester."

"Oh, does it take a whole semester?" Yuigahama Yui also wanted to change her personality, so she didn't refuse. She was just curious why it would take a whole semester.

That’s a full 4 months!

"Please have a certain understanding of your own situation. I don't ask you to be clear and thorough, but at least don't be confused."

To sum up Yukinoshita Yukino's words, it can be said that - [You really have no idea].

"Xiaoxue's words are so hard to understand."

Yuigahama Yui covered her head.

Is this really the island language?

Chapter 11 A Promise Between Two of Us

Half an hour later.

The stew, which was the first test dish, was ready. Simple dishes like potato stew and meat are just like curry. Basically, as long as you know how to wash and cut the vegetables, they won’t be that difficult to eat.

Asakura Yu originally thought so, until he tasted a bite of Yuigahama Yui's cooking——

“The taste still has a lot of room for improvement.”

Euphemisms can avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble. Taking a detour can reduce trouble and is a very clever social skill.
