I'm Taking Him Whether You Like It or Not-What Are You Going to Do About It?

"Would you betray Class D?"

"As long as Sae- chan is still the homeroom teacher of Class D, I won't."

Without hesitation, Shuichi Kanda immediately answered the question, leaving Chabashira Sae.

I'm not a teenage girl, what's the point of you saying that!

"Alright, I grant your request. This gift, along with a greeting card, will be given to Yui Ichinose at Christmas."

"Then I'll leave it to you, Sae- chan~"

As if impatient, Chabashira waved his hand, signaling Shuichi Kanda leave.

One minute he's Chabashira-sensei, the next he's calling himself Sae. What a sinful man!

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it's already mid-December.

During this period, Ryuen seemed to fall silent, making no moves whatsoever.

But Shuichi Kanda knew that the guy, having suffered such a huge loss, would definitely not let it go.

"It's so cold~"

After school, as soon as he stepped out of the warm indoors, even in the entrance hall of the building, Shuichi Kanda felt a chill in his face.

Although the winter uniforms issued by the school are thick enough, it is now that winter has fully arrived, and the uniforms are still a bit thin. Even with an overcoat over the uniform, one can still feel the biting cold.

After all, the face can't be completely covered, and Shuichi Kanda doesn't like wearing scarves.

"Really? I think it's fine."

Hasebe, standing to the side, tilted his head, carrying his schoolbag.

Oh right, you think it's okay? You're showing your bare legs, so you get to decide.

Not only Hasebe Haruka, but even Sakura was only wearing long stockings, which made Shuichi wonder how these guys grew up.

In contrast, Horikita, who had just changed her shoes at the entrance, was very careful to keep warm. Her smooth black leggings hugged her beautiful lower body and then disappeared under her skirt.

What are you looking at?

Horikita's expression turned somewhat displeased, seemingly noticing Shuichi Kanda's somewhat intense gaze.

"No, I was just thinking that there are still girls who are afraid of the cold." Then he turned to look at Hasebe Haruka and Sakura Airi, "You two should learn from this, or you'll both have rheumatism when you grow up."

"Here we go again, Shuichi's little knowledge lecture." Hasebe said casually, draping his scarf around his neck.

"I... I'll be careful!"

See, Sakura is more obedient.

Her relationship with Hasebe and Sakura didn't end even after the exams were over. After spending more time together, she discovered that Hasebe wasn't a cold goddess at all; she was just a chatterbox who liked to give people nicknames.

It's just that because he doesn't like interacting with strangers, coupled with his aloof eyebrows, he appears rather cold and distant to most people.

"You two seem to have a really good relationship."

After putting on his shoes, Horikita tapped his toes on the ground twice, then said with a cold expression.

"Envious? If you speak up now, you can join us!"

"Hmph, I'm going back."

After watching Horikita leave, Haruka looked at Shuichi Kanda curiously. "If Horikita really asks, are you really going to let her join?"

"Of course! I, Shuichi Kanda, keep my word. Anyway, she's not really going to say anything." Shuichi Kanda had already put on his shoes. "By the way, are we going to see a movie today?"

Ever since Haruka, she has frequently organized outings for a few people, and Shuichi Kanda, who doesn't have many entertainment options, naturally had no reason to refuse.

Moreover, going out more often is good for one's health, so Shuichi Kanda had no objection to this.

"By the way, Akito, are you still going to the Archery Club's event today, so you're not going?" Shuichi Kanda turned to look at Akito Miyake was standing next to him.

"Go away, you're skipping practice today."

Miyake answered Shuichi Kanda's question while putting her indoor shoes into the shoe cabinet.

"You skipped it?" Hasebe was a little surprised. "That's rare. San-san actually skipped his favorite club activity. Did he have a fight with his girlfriend?"

"No, that's not true!"

Seeing Hasebe's gossipy expression, Akito Miyake immediately denied it.

"It's just that things haven't been peaceful in the Archery Club lately. The people from Class C keep going to the Archery Club under the guise of observing, and then they watch me practice, which has made me lose my motivation to practice."

"I see." Haruka. "Speaking of which, it's surprising that no one dropped out of Class C this time, even though they weren't studying at all, and the questions we set were so difficult."

"Well, maybe Ryuen did something. Anyway, it's good that we won, right?"

Miyake shrugged and didn't delve any further, because he had seen Shuichi Kanda set questions during the assembly, and the questions were exactly the same as those submitted to Class C.

"I also think that winning the exam is enough, and even if someone from another class drops out, I'll still feel a little unhappy."

"Hmm—it would be ideal if we could get along peacefully, but that would probably be difficult within the school's system, right? After all, aiming for the top class means having to beat the other classes."

"Hey, let's go, let's go. I don't want to be exposed to the cold wind for too long."

Seeing the three of them chatting endlessly, Shuichi Kanda urged them on.

"They're here! By the way, what are we going to see today?"

"Want to see your Your Name? It's a new movie that just came out recently, I heard it's really good."

In response to Miyake's question, Hasebe offered a good suggestion.

"Your Name," an animated film directed by Makoto Shinkai, was seen by Shuichi Kanda and Kamuro; it's a very good movie.

"I've already seen that, and our group probably isn't suited to watching that kind of movie, right?"

"Hey? Has Shuichi seen it?"

"Ah, I went to see it with Masumi when it was released."

"Masumi? Ah, is that Kamuro from Class A?" Hasebe Haruka looked like she suddenly realized. "Speaking of which, most of Shuichi's friends are girls, and pretty girls at that."

"I see, that's certainly true." Shuichi Kanda wasn't embarrassed by Hasegawa's teasing at all; instead, he nodded with a serious expression. "But the most beautiful one among them should be you Haruka."

After spending more than a month with Hasebe, Shuichi Kanda had figured out how to deal with her.

"Huh?"

As expected, even Hasebe Haruka, who was quite bold within the small circle, blushed a little after Kanda Shuichi's words.

Not only her, but even Sakura Airi next to her suddenly became somewhat nervous.

"Hey, Kanda- kun."

Just as the atmosphere became slightly awkward, Ichinose from Class A came out of the room.

"Good afternoon, Ichinose." Shuichi Kanda responded to the greeting, "Are you alone?"

"Yes, I need to submit my withdrawal application to the Student Council later."

"I see." Shuichi Kanda nodded. "Then I'll go with you."

"Eh? No need, no need, I can go by myself." Ichinose quickly refused.

"It's better if we go together; who knows what that Nagumo guy might do." He then looked at Miyake, Hasebe, and Sakura. "That's it, I'm skipping today."

"Huh? Weren't you just saying you were a man of your word?" Hasebe Haruka was dumbfounded.

"Is that so?" Shuichi Kanda countered. "Did I say that, Akito?"

"Explain..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, Miyake saw the threatening look in Shuichi Kanda's eyes.

"Did they say it or not? I can't quite remember."

"Damn it! You two are in cahoots, I can't believe you, Airi, you tell me!" Hasebe Haruka looked at Sakura beside her.

"Well, Shuichi must have something on his mind, so we can't force him."

"Looks like it's my victory, Haruka," Shuichi Kanda said smugly.

"Damn it! Airi, you traitor!" Hasebe Haruka bitterly.

"Hehehe..."

Seeing Hasebe like this, Shuichi Kanda also found it amusing, and it seemed a bit inappropriate to continue bullying him.

"Alright, alright, don't be angry. I'll put all your expenses on my tab today. Is that okay?"

"Hmph, I won't stand on ceremony with you!" Hasebe turned around and grabbed Sakura's hand. "Airi, let's go!"

Seeing this, Miyake shrugged and followed.

Chapter 213 I'm going to take her away, what can you do about it?

After Miyake and the others left, Shuichi and Ichinose also left the school building and headed towards the Student Council.

"Um, actually, Kanda- san, you don't need to come with me," Ichinose somewhat embarrassedly. "Besides, you already told Hasebe and the others beforehand, right?"

"It's alright, they'll understand," Shuichi Kanda said dismissively.

Generally speaking, Shuichi Kanda wouldn't break a promise, but this time is different. Ichinose leaving the Student Council and then joining his side will definitely cause Nagumo's dissatisfaction.

Moreover, this was his own request, so Shuichi Kanda obligation to help Ichinose fight against Nagumo. As for Hasebe, there was nothing important going on.

They can distinguish between what is important and what is urgent, and so can they.

If you can't distinguish between people, then there's no need to take the relationship any further.

Ichinose felt embarrassed but also pleased with Shuichi Kanda's actions.

"By the way, the gift issue has been resolved. If all goes well, your sister will receive it around Christmas."

Upon hearing this, Ichinose immediately broke into a happy expression.

"Yui will be so happy to receive this gift."

"Yes, I think so too." Shuichi Kanda smiled. "Your sister will definitely be very happy."

"Thank you, Kanda. I don't know how to thank you enough for helping me like this." Ichinose gave me her familiar apologetic smile.

"It's nothing. Anyway, you've been doing all the work the Student Council assigned me, haven't you?"

"Well, actually..."

Ichinose wanted to say that these were all opportunities for practice, and rather than asking me to help her, she wanted me to do it.

However, Ichinose quickly shut up, because if she kept talking, she realized she wasn't helping Shuichi Kanda at all...

Then, the two chatted as they walked to the Student Council.

Since Horikita Manabu and other third-year students retired, and Nagumo took over the Student Council, the Student Council's style has changed drastically.

First, let's look at the interior design of the Student Council Office.

Previously, Horikita Manabu mainly focused on simplicity, but as soon as Nagumo took office, he immediately changed the layout of the Student Council Office.

Every corner was filled with all sorts of gaudy decorations, just like Nagumo himself, dressed in a flamboyant manner.

Shuichi Kanda had come once before and never wanted to come again. He was only here today with Ichinose, otherwise he wouldn't have bothered.

"Oh, look who's here! Isn't this our Vice President Kanda?"

Shuichi Kanda opened the door, Nagumo teased him with a mocking expression.

"Good afternoon, it's still as flashy and colorful as ever here."

After taking a look around, Shuichi Kanda couldn't help but make a comment.

Although Shuichi Kanda really wanted to teach Nagumo a lesson, he still had to put on a show. After all, he was Akito, not an uncivilized barbarian.

"So, Kanda, what brings you here? Are you getting ready to take over as Vice President of the Student Council?"

The speaker was a man wearing glasses, who was sitting at the desk next to Nagumo.
