The warm breeze caressed the skin.

Raven hair danced in the wind, and Haruka Yuzan just quietly watched the two engaging in the handshake of the century.
It was incredible!
He could understand Sister Reiko, but who would have thought that Miss Otome would also choose to shake hands?
Was it... that she had never taken the threat of a beautiful woman to heart?
Well, indeed, the thought process of a tsundere was something he couldn’t understand.
...
The lunch break was brief, and after savoring the delicious food, Reiko Onodera left the school with two empty lunchboxes.
Today’s visit to the campus was very fulfilling for Reiko Onodera.
Not only did she resolve little Haruka’s hunger, but she also took the chance to get to know the new tenant, which improved her mood considerably.
Of course, Haruka Yuzan was equally relieved.
Although the lady’s demeanor was somewhat haughty, the fact that Otome Mizuko could meet Sister Reiko cordially was a stroke of great fortune amidst misfortune, and the harmony of the moment even made Haruka wonder if he was dreaming.
No, he wouldn’t even dare to dream of this.
However, Haruka Yuzan had some guesses about why Miss Otome was acting this way, and with that thought, his gaze involuntarily shifted to the gracefully sitting girl in front of him who was listening attentively to the lesson.
Was it really because Chiba-san was present? Having a greater enemy could have diverted the lady’s attention away.
"Classmate Haruka, please translate this short passage."

The gentle voice laced with a hint of mischief interrupted Haruka Yuzan’s thoughts. He looked up and saw Teacher Mizutani Nozomi standing at the lectern, dressed in an OL-style outfit complete with black tights.
However, her pretty face now wore a hint of grievance. Damn it, this guy was daydreaming again during her lesson!!
Is my class that boring!!
There was hardly a class that she could teach without worry, yet Haruka Yuzan’s English grades were always perfect, which left Teacher Mizutani without any excuse to keep him for extra lessons as punishment after school!!
That accursed genius, relying on his intelligence to do whatever he wanted!!
Seeing that he was called out, Haruka Yuzan shrugged his shoulders helplessly. Why did Teacher Mizutani always pick on him!
And there, not far away, Heisuke Yonchu was still playing games!
But for Haruka Yuzan, translating a short passage of this level posed no difficulty.
"This passage narrates the life of an international superstar, cai so-and-so, who is driven and passionate about basketball, with a huge fanbase internationally, especially dominated by male fans...."
While translating, Haruka Yuzan felt something was amiss, not with his translation but with the short passage – the person it introduced seemed so familiar....
"Alright, take your seat, and make sure to pay attention in class! Don’t you daydream."
Teacher Mizutani Nozomi, unable to catch Haruka’s slip-up, pouted unhappily. Alas, it was always the same; she had selected the passage specifically because it was entertainment news filled with words they hadn’t learned yet, and still, it wasn’t a challenge for Haruka Yuzan. Hmph! It was so infuriating!!
"Sure, thank you, Teacher."
Haruka Yuzan grinned and, under the watchful eyes of the whole class, sat back down in his chair.
Resting his chin on his hand, it seemed as if he was already accustomed to the events of the day.
The afternoon weather gradually cooled down, and the air conditioning in the classroom was turned off; they opened the windows to let in the fresh fragrance gifted by nature.
He felt more relaxed...
Basking in comfort, the final bell signaling the end of the last period rang on time.
The moment Chiba Shimizu heard the bell, she began packing her things to head back to the villa; there was a new staff member coming for an interview, and as the secretary, she had to be there to oversee operations.
As for Haruka Yuzan?
He dutifully stayed in the classroom, preparing to start his cleaning duties.
"Do you have any specific requirements for the criteria for hiring staff?"
Chiba Shimizu slung her backpack over her shoulder, her cool and beautiful eyes possessing a captivating beauty.
"Hm? You’re asking for my opinion?"
Originally intending to respond casually with something like "anything is fine," Haruka Yuzan propped himself up on the desk and, staring at the stunning face in front of him, smiled and said, "If I were in charge, I would definitely put character first. Of course, while considering character, I pay more attention to appearance. Beauty in its entirety – if our waitstaff are attractive, it adds to our competitiveness, right, Chiba-san?"
Chiba Shimizu didn’t respond, but her cold gaze already gave Haruka the answer, "Such a reply was a waste to ask."
Leaving a trail of cool air in her wake, Chiba Shimizu turned and left the classroom.
"She’s really cold, huh."
Haruka Yuzan muttered to himself.
"Classmate Haruka, could you, um, wipe the blackboard later, and I, I’ll sweep the floor, is that okay?"
When the classroom had mostly emptied, a soft voice suddenly reached his ears. Looking down, he saw a cute girl with delicate features who became even shyer when she noticed his gaze and lowered her head.
"Of course, that’s no problem at all, Classmate Natsuko." Haruka Yuzan said with a smile.
"Haruka, Haruka Classmate, you, you actually remember my name?"
When she heard him call out her name, Kuroiwa Natsuko looked up even more joyfully.
