Although being interrupted while courting a girl left Wu Yan thoroughly annoyed, there was nothing he could do. If it came to fighting, Wu Yan did not mind, but while the original protagonist Ayasaki Hayate had been plagued by misfortune all his life, he was still a good person. Even if it had not been entirely unprovoked, Wu Yan could not just beat him up.
But if he did not fight... Wu Yan still felt unhappy.
In the end, helpless as he was, he figured he should say hello first. After all, this was the original protagonist...
Watching Ayasaki Hayate, who was still absorbed in attacking, and Hinagiku, who looked utterly embarrassed, Wu Yan forced a smile and looked at Hayate. "Hello, I'm Wu Yan, Chinese. Although I'm a student at Hakuhou Academy, I currently work as a butler. Please take care of me!"
Only after hearing Wu Yan's words did Hinagiku come to her senses. Smiling, she said, "Hello, I'm Katsura Hinagiku."
Pressing down the troublesome cat in his hands, Ayasaki Hayate, his face covered in red scratches, forced out a smile. "I'm Ayasaki Hayate, the Sanjouin family's butler. Hello. So you're a butler too?"
The last sentence was clearly directed at Wu Yan. Perhaps because it was his first time seeing a butler his own age, Hayate's eyes were full of surprise and curiosity.
"Yep, I'm Miss Hinagiku's butler." Wu Yan shot Hinagiku a glance and said with a wicked grin.
Ayasaki Hayate was even more surprised. He was that beautiful pink-haired girl's butler?
No wonder Hayate was so surprised. Up in the tree just now, he had clearly seen the two of them hugging intimately. He had thought they were a couple...
Perhaps understanding the meaning in Hayate's eyes, Hinagiku blushed and shot Wu Yan an annoyed glare. It was unclear whether she was dissatisfied with him forcibly hugging her or with the way he had introduced her.
"So, Ayasaki, what are you doing here? You don't seem to be a student of the academy..."
After Ayasaki Hayate's disruptive antics, Hinagiku's embarrassment finally eased a little. Still, she showed the full curiosity expected of a girl toward Hayate, who had made such a "brilliant entrance."
Ayasaki Hayate hurriedly "released" the cat in his hands before saying somewhat awkwardly to Hinagiku and Wu Yan, "Actually, my Young Miss forgot to bring her lunch this morning, so I brought it here for her..."
Hearing Hayate say that, Wu Yan suddenly remembered. It seemed that such a thing had indeed happened in the original story.
In the original story, because that Sanjouin Nagi had forgotten her lunch, Ayasaki Hayate came to Hakuhou Academy. However, the process was rather tortuous. Just like Wu Yan back then, as soon as Hayate arrived at Hakuhou Academy, he was inexplicably attacked by that crazy older sister.
Unfortunately, he did not possess Wu Yan's abilities. His strength was only one level below Katsura Yukiji's, so naturally, entering Hakuhou Academy had not been so easy for him.
In the end, with the Idiot Trio's help, Ayasaki Hayate had managed to sneak into Hakuhou Academy.
And in the original story, the cat Ayasaki Hayate had just saved was rescued by Hinagiku. However, because Hinagiku was afraid of heights and did not dare climb down, she landed safely with Hayate's "help." Hinagiku then took him to the student council room, where a whole series of events unfolded around him.
Now, due to Wu Yan's interference, the event that had originally allowed Ayasaki Hayate and Hinagiku to build an initial fondness for each other had simply vanished. Wu Yan could not help feeling immensely relieved, and the way he looked at Hayate became much friendlier.
Although the other man had extraordinarily good luck with women, Wu Yan did not believe that, with advantages like striking first and being close at hand, he would lose to this unlucky bastard...
