My Youth Romantic Comedy Is Wrong, As Expected

Yukino: "..."

She sighed at this world, where even the wicked system liked beautiful girls, a world for LSPs.

"How about we make a bet?" Yukino said before stepping into the classroom. "If I rank in the top ten this time, you'll try hard to pass next week's retake exam."

Yui was stunned for a moment, then grinned and ran up to catch up with her.

"It's a deal!"

She naturally didn't have much enthusiasm for studying, but she was extremely, extremely, extremely interested in having a shared secret and memory with Yukino again.

She wanted to become friends with Yukino again!

Entering the noisy classroom, Yukino glanced at Miura's seat and found she had already arrived. As soon as Miura saw Yui, she came over dissatisfied and pinched her cheek.

"Yui, why are you so late!"

Yui quickly pleaded, "I met Yukino-san at the school gate and we chatted for a bit."

Miura's gaze, which she had deliberately avoided, now fell squarely on Yukino. "What could you two have to talk about..."

Perhaps even she didn't realize how full of sourness her tone was. This sourness even made her immediately cast aside the awkwardness she had felt in her heart towards Yukino just moments ago.

Yui smiled and said, "We were talking about the mock exam results that will be announced this week. They should be posted on the school bulletin board at lunchtime."

The results were going to be announced?

Oh, Sobu High School had always been like this. Exams from last week were announced the following week. Miura had always been a consistently good student and had never bothered to pay attention to this before.

Wait?!

Miura suddenly thought of a problem!

Yukino had been working so hard this month, but what if her grades were still not good? Wouldn't she be very sad!!!!

Miura instantly sat back down in her seat and took out her phone.

[Junko, Junko, is there any way to dismantle the school bulletin board?]

Junko Kamizawa: ??????????

Junko was discussing with Ono the photo editing styles for the pictures they took during their outing last week. Suddenly, Miura's abrupt and shocking message almost made her jump out of her skin.

Although she didn't understand what Yumiko was up to, anything that made her so passionately act foolishly was definitely related to Yukino.

Yumiko was usually very strong-willed. Even among her close friends and in small groups, she was accustomed to being the big sister type who took care of others.

But since becoming friends with Yukino... cough, cough, since becoming friends, Yumiko had asked for their help and shown weakness many times.

Even though it was already very clear and obvious that Yumiko was completely clueless about relationship problems, Junko Kamizawa couldn't help but sigh.

Perhaps Yukino Yukinoshita was truly too difficult a problem for Yumiko to solve.

Junko: [... What do you think about tearing down the school bulletin board????]

Your youth romance story is just too problematic?!

Miura: [Junko, please help me...]

Junko: [... If you absolutely must do it, it shouldn't be too difficult to achieve. Just anonymously report the school bulletin board and other issues of disrepair to the Guardian Committee, and the accountability call should reach the school by tomorrow.]

Miura: [Can Junko make the bulletin board disappear before school ends in the morning!]

Hey, I'm Junko Kamizawa, not Doraemon!

Junko: [So why do you want to do something so stupid???]

Miura hesitated for a long time before replying.

[The school bulletin board is supposed to be posted with grades when school ends in the morning. If Yukino doesn't do well, a lot of people will laugh at her.]

Junko was taken aback.

Although Yumiko's tendency to tear down the school at the slightest disagreement was truly bizarre, she was right about this point.

During this period, many people were indeed waiting to see Yukino make a fool of herself.

For the past month, she had been studying hard and focusing on herself, no longer "giving hats" to others. With Miura around at school and in class, there weren't many foolish people who would provoke Yukino.

However, those people had not completely abandoned their animosity towards Yukino. After all, Yukino's past reputation as the "[Sobu High School Early Romance Crusher]" was not undeserved.

Many people were just waiting for her grades to come out so they could sarcastically mock her.

Junko guessed that the ice-cold beauty probably wouldn't pay attention to these utterly boring taunts, which held no power over her.

But Miura certainly didn't have such a calm demeanor.

Junko: [... Forget about tearing down the school, that's too stupid. I'll go probe Teacher Hiratsuka for information later.]

Junko's counter-suggestion: [If Yukino fails this exam, you can invite Yukino over to your place for a study session later~]

Invite... invite Yukino to her own home...?

Just Yukino and herself?

In her own familiar room?

Then, then, then!

Doesn't that count as living together if you round up?!!!

In that instant, Miura's heart fluttered.

But she quickly shook her head, blushing.

Miura: "No, no, no, Yukino's feelings are more important!"

Still thinking about tearing down the school?

Sobu High School is truly unlucky.

Kamizawa sighed, "Even if you tear down the bulletin board, it's useless. When the bulletin board is gone, the school will probably post the grades in each class, and the situation will be even worse then."

Miura: "Can't tear it down at all..."

Kamizawa: "First, do as I say. Take three deep breaths."

Although Miura was confused, she did as she was told.

Miura: "Then what?"

Kamizawa: "Then let your mind go blank, go blank, go blank."

Miura: "Then what?"

Kamizawa: "Do you feel your mind is a little more relaxed and calm now?"

Miura: "I think so, Junko, then what, then what?"

Kamizawa: "Are you still going to tear down the school?"

Miura: "...I won't tear it down."

After her passionate response, Miura, who had calmed down, finally realized how foolish she had almost been.

Although she was usually opinionated and strong, she was, after all, just a seventeen-year-old high school student.

Miura bit her lower lip and slumped onto her desk.

She thought, Yukino is such a good girl, why can't everyone just like her properly?

Yukino felt that Miura was exceptionally gentle today.

Although she usually had a maternal air, today she was practically a model twenty-four- filial-piety good mother.

"Yukino."

After the first class ended, Miura poured all the snacks and candy from her bag onto the desk and held them out to Yukino.

"Here, it's all for you."

She didn't like these things, what was Miura doing?

Miura, however, said earnestly, "Candy and snacks are good for improving mood."

Yukino:?

Did she look like she was in a bad mood today?

But seeing Miura pile all her candy and snacks in front of her, Yukino couldn't help but think of when she was very young, the first time she met Haruno.

Haruno was just like that back then, piling all her good things over.

Yukino had to admit that she was a stubborn and terrible person.

She had previously thought that Haruno didn't recognize her, and she got stuck in a rut, thinking that if Haruno never recognized her, she would never speak to her again.

But from the Exorcism Charm Haruno carried with her, Yukino suddenly realized that the more than a year she had lost, Haruno had probably gone through much more hardship than she had imagined.

Just like when she learned Haruno's true feelings back then, Yukino's heart had softened.

She opened her textbook and said, "I don't like sweets, they're too sweet."

Miura panicked, "These are chocolate candies, slightly bitter, not too cloying."

"Really? Try one for me?"

Miura quickly unwrapped a candy, popped it into her mouth, and swallowed it in a few bites, "See, it's really sweet."

Because she was afraid of getting fat, Miura kept these candies in her bag, but rarely ate them.

Even though she really, really loved sweets.

Yukino, however, said, "You ate it on purpose so quickly, does it really taste bad?"

She handed another unwrapped candy to Miura, "Try another one?"

Miura obediently ate it and quietly defended herself, "It's really delicious..."

Midway through her sentence, she finally realized.

She looked up and saw Yukino had opened her textbook to cover her face, revealing only her eyes.

Her eyes, which usually seemed to hold the shattered snow of an entire winter, were now full of teasing.

"Miura is such an idiot..."

Junko Kamizawa returned after inquiring for information at Teacher Hiratsuka's office and saw Yumiko looking at her expectantly.

She shook her head silently.

Teacher Hiratsuka was tight-lipped, only chatting with her about random things with a smile.

Although Miura was extremely worried about this, wishing the days would pass faster, the school bell still rang on time.

At this time, usually, a few close friends would move their desks and chairs together to eat their bento boxes, but today, as soon as the teacher announced dismissal, many students rushed downstairs.

Yukino also wanted to go down, but Miura stopped her immediately.

"Uh, well, there are too many people at the bulletin board right now, and we can't squeeze in, so let's go later, haha..."

Yukino looked confused, "We don't need to go in, we can just ask the classmates who did squeeze in."

"Yukino, do you have any classmates in the class you can talk to?"

Damn it, this is a personal attack!

Yukino glared at Miura, "Didn't you see Ono and Yui Yuigahama rush down immediately?"

Kaho Yui, why are you running so fast!

Usually, you both look pained during exams and only glance at it at the very end, right?

Damn it, a miscalculation!

Miura could no longer refute.
