Yogurt Senpai

Hayato Hayama didn't bring up the topic again.

He turned to look at his friends who were excitedly huddled together discussing something, his eyes sparkling.

At that moment, Fushimi Makoto's voice rang out. "You've changed a lot."

Hayato Hayama laughed generously, "It's probably because you're so outstanding that I'm unwilling to fall behind others."

"Is that really true?"

"..."

This time, the other person paused for a second, the smile remained, but the tone changed. "Fushimi, you're really... too perceptive, aren't you? My mindset has indeed changed. I used to think that high school life was just like that, everyone would just joke around and it would pass by."

"And then?" Fushimi Makoto played the role of a listener.

"And then, I met you."

"Your comment is a bit like Nan Tong's."

Hayato Hayama smiled and looked into the distance, "After meeting you, I realized that there are many things I thought high school students couldn't do, you can not only do, but you can also lead everyone to do their best."

Fushimi Makoto joked, "Does this count as me helping you find the meaning of life?"

Hayato Hayama was taken aback. "When did you become so good at reading people's minds?"

"I'm improving too."

"That's true, you've been making progress."

Hayato Hayama's heart softened considerably, and for the first time, he opened his heart to someone.

Just then, a classmate that Fushimi Makoto knew ran over. "Fushimi, the principal is looking for you. I heard that a reporter wants to interview you, and it's a major media outlet!"

Everyone turned to look at Fushimi Makoto.

Fushimi Makoto, however, remained calm. "Let's all go together."

"Huh? Didn't he say the principal wanted to see you?" the friends asked instinctively.

Fushimi Makoto said jokingly, "We filmed this short film together. Don't you understand the saying that we're all part of a team?"

Everyone immediately became excited.

Fushimi Makoto originally planned to invite Yukino and the others as well, since they had contributed a lot.

The student who had spoken to him earlier told him, "You go ahead and register; I'll notify the others for you."

"Then I'll leave it to you, Taiga -kun." Fushimi Makoto knew his name.

"It's no big deal, leave it to me!" The other person was immediately motivated by being treated so seriously by a school celebrity.

When Fushimi Makoto and his friends arrived at the principal's office, they found a large crowd standing at the door.

They weren't students, but teachers.

Hiratsuka Shizuka and Matsukaze Mayu were also among them.

They Fushimi Makoto almost simultaneously, then looked at each other and blushed slightly.

Fushimi Makoto's extraordinary senses instantly made a discovery: they were hiding something from him.

In fact, he didn't need to be confused for long.

Because these two beautiful teachers have already planned to start their holiday tomorrow, everyone will have plenty of time.

With the two of them joining forces, given Hiratsuka Shizuka's ability to always win twice, and Matsukaze Mayu's allure, they were confident they would have a chance to Fushimi Makoto to hand over his defeat CG.

The two exchanged a knowing glance in the crowd: Who wants to go first tonight?

Matsukaze Mayu, blushing, decided to take the lead.

After all, she knew how much Fushimi Makoto liked her body.

I would always help him by holding onto the bed or sofa.

That's when she's at her most lethal.

I did get drunk yesterday, went to bed early, and woke up in the early hours of the morning. Coincidentally, I didn't need to submit a sick leave request.

Chapter 241 Yogurt Senior

"Fushimi-kun, you've finally arrived! Please have a seat."

The principal was visibly taken aback when he saw Fushimi Makoto; he hadn't expected the latter to bring so many students.

But the principal, true to his word, reacted in a second and then enthusiastically greeted the other students.

Fortunately, the students who came this time were all key members of the film crew. If the extras had been called over, the principal's office would definitely not have been able to accommodate everyone.

The principal was a shrewd person; Fushimi Makoto's entourage, he immediately guessed that the other party wanted to help the students get ahead.

Excellent. Not greedy for credit, has a broad perspective, and can constantly make headlines to generate buzz for the school.

This is simply the best student in my mind!

The principal's thoughts shifted rapidly, but he greeted Fushimi Makoto and the others, saying, "This is Mr. Fukuda from the Asahi Shimbun."

"Asahi Shimbun?"

Apart from Hiratsuka Shizuka Fushimi Makoto and Shizuka Hiratsuka's group, who already knew the truth, Hayato Hayama were taken aback.

"Have we done something that caught the attention of the Asahi Shimbun? And we even got a solo interview?" Fushimi Makoto's friends were incredibly excited, their faces flushed.

Even the Hayato Hayama was emotionally agitated. No matter how outstanding he was, he would never get an exclusive interview with a major media outlet.

Fushimi Makoto calmly greeted the reporters, which made the adults present look at him with even greater respect.

"So composed, so neither humble nor arrogant, this guy is really steady." Hiratsuka Shizuka couldn't help but smile. She was also very happy to see Fushimi Makoto become so outstanding.

Matsukaze Mayu remained silent, her gaze fixed intently on Fushimi Makoto, the constant rise and fall of her full chest proving that her heart was far from at peace.

"Fushimi-kun, you don't seem surprised at all?" Before the interview even started, the reporter used casual conversation as a common way to ease the tension.

"Yes, because reporters have visited the school before." Fushimi Makoto nodded.

"Oh right, I've heard the principal mention it too, but in the past, it was mostly self-media accounts that came, and even a lot of marketing accounts that were just trying to ride the wave of popularity."

Fushimi Makoto chatted calmly with the reporter, showing no signs of stage fright whatsoever.

He had anticipated this interview.

The short film they made was of high quality and generated considerable buzz within the industry.

Most importantly, Fushimi Makoto and Nakano Ichika are practically "bound" together.

Back then, Nakano Ichika used a fake account to promote a romantic pairing, leading many onlookers to believe that the two were a perfect match.

Until the emergence of fans shipping Yukino and Fushimi Makoto, Nakano Ichika's position remained very stable.

The short film's popularity has long since faded, but the production team that Nakano Ichika was part of wasn't going to sit idly by. As soon as they saw that these two high school students were gaining attention, they immediately started working on them online.

Just then, Nakano Ichika was cast as the female lead in a movie, and when her name was mentioned again, Fushimi Makoto, who was associated with her, also gained attention once more.

Soon after, Yukino and the others arrived.

Since Yukino and Ichika were the main contributors to the previous short film, Nino and the others just watched from the outside and didn't come in.

Hayato Hayama and the others tacitly sat further away, leaving empty seats on either side of Fushimi Makoto.

As Yukino and Nakano Ichika sat on either side of Fushimi Makoto, a reporter named Fukuda's eyes lit up.

"You two are just as well-matched as the internet says," he couldn't help but compliment.

Nakano Ichika smile, while Yukino remained indifferent.

Furthermore, when they thanked him, Fushimi Makoto could sense that their gratitude wasn't entirely genuine.

Because the reporter used the word "you" without specifically pointing out who was a better match for whom.

This will undoubtedly leave the two young women feeling uneasy.

Yukino is no longer the stubborn person she used to be.

She and Fushimi Makoto achieved the feat of hitting a "home run," so how could she not feel possessive?

As for Nakano Ichika, her feelings in this regard were even stronger.

Her willingness to "share" with Nino does not mean she will accept Yukino.

Nino her best friend, Yukino an outsider and a rival in love.

So even if she and Yukino friends and work well together on important matters, it doesn't mean she's willing to share with Yukino.

The interview began quickly.

Facing reporters and cameras, Fushimi Makoto and his two companions remained as steady as ever.

Hayato Hayama seemed a bit reserved.

During the interview, the reporter would professionally ask the principal for his opinion, and the camera would also move accordingly. This could be used as a sudden interlude in the later video production to supplement the details about Fushimi Makoto and his group.

"Fushimi has always been a good kid. He is always sensible, serious, hardworking, brave, and able to unite his classmates without being greedy for credit or showing off."

The principal showered the camera with compliments.

Judging from his utterly satisfied expression, Fushimi Makoto had a feeling that his next words might very well be, "A son should be like Fushimi Makoto!"

Nakano Ichika tried her best to suppress her laughter, and almost burst out laughing several times.

She was naturally pleased to see Fushimi Makoto praised.

The problem is, with the principal praising her so much, it's really hard for her to keep up appearances.

Even Yukino's lips curled up slightly, but quickly relaxed.

After asking the principal, the reporter turned to Fushimi Makoto again. "I've watched your short film many times; it's of very high quality, truly excellent."

"Thank you," Fushimi Makoto replied cooperatively.

"Fushimi-kun, as a director, screenwriter, and production assistant, you still managed to produce such an excellent short film. You must have had many unique experiences before, right? I mean, things like lifestyle habits that are different from ordinary people."

Upon hearing the reporter's question, everyone present perked up their ears.

Especially the girls Yukino, who Fushimi Makoto, were completely focused.

However, Fushimi Makoto shook his head and said, "I really don't have that."

The reporter winked, her eyes full of suggestion. "That's a possibility."

Fushimi Makoto couldn't help but laugh and said, "Do you want me to make it up?"

Reporter: "How can this be called fabrication? You're a screenwriter, so you should understand that this is called 'artistic embellishment'."

This time, Yukino was having a hard time keeping up.

She understood the reporter's reason for making such a suggestion; it was simply to make the interview more interesting.

Just like the variety shows that Fushimi Makoto had talked to her about before, many contestants would pretend to unintentionally play the victim.

For example, that perfect formula: a gambling father, a sick mother, a young brother, and a broken home.

It was precisely because she remembered these things that she felt so tense.

In the end, the reporter still couldn't get a big story out of Fushimi Makoto, but he wasn't disappointed. The school was so big, and so many students knew Fushimi Makoto; how could he be afraid of not getting a worthwhile story to interview?

As soon as the lunch break ended, the others reluctantly left, and the interview with Fushimi Makoto and his group also came to a successful conclusion.

On their way back to the classroom, Fushimi Makoto teased the two beautiful girls beside him, "Yukino, your answer was too formal, too stiff. It gives people the impression that you're an 'iceberg serious type' beauty."

Yukino said nonchalantly, "I don't care what others think."

"What about me? How did I do?" Nakano Ichika, her eyes sparkling as if she wanted to claim credit.

Fushimi Makoto gave him a thumbs up. "Very impressive. You know how to advance and retreat gracefully, without causing any controversy. It's obvious you've studied in private."

"Yes, I'm going to be the best actress, so I definitely need to work hard to learn how to do interviews in front of the camera." Nakano Ichika happily.

Yukino could tell that Nakano Ichika was showing off, but she couldn't be bothered to pay attention. Instead, she casually remarked, "After this interview, I'll probably have to wear a mask to school again."

Fushimi Makoto and Nakano Ichika thought the same thing.

After school, Nakano Ichika went straight to the film set, Fushimi Makoto took the opportunity to bring her a Powerful Red Bull.

Yukino waited for him on the way.
