Yukinoshita's Correction Method
"Yeah, that's right. I haven't done my morning exercise in a long time, so I thought I'd get back into it." Saika Totsuka smiled sheepishly. "But because I haven't done it in so long, I accidentally forgot the time and almost was late."
"That's only natural," Dong Yunshan replied with a smile. "How's the club doing now?"
"I was just about to tell you that. Didn't I send an email to the Service Club before? After receiving your reply, I started..." Saika Totsuka excitedly talked about the Tennis Club's recent activities, recounting his efforts and the support of everyone in the club, until the school bell rang, at which point he reluctantly stopped.
After the morning classes ended, Dong Yunshan brought her lunch to the activity room and had lunch with Yukino Yukinoshita.
"Election..." Yukino Yukinoshita, who had finished eating first, swiped her phone screen and murmured softly.
"Hmm?" Dong Yunshan looked up. "My father-in-law? Now is not the time."
"I'm talking about the father-in-law at school... what father-in-law?" Yukino Yukinoshita glared at Dong Yunshan. "Not yet."
"I'll get used to it beforehand." Dong Yunshan finished her meal in a few bites. "The school elections... the Student Council?"
"Yes, the Student Council council elections are coming up soon. The announcement has already been issued, listing the current candidates." Yukino Yukinoshita flipped through the announcement. "Except for the secretary position, which has no candidates, all the other positions have been announced."
"At this time..." Dong Yunshan silently calculated in her mind, "Isn't it a bit late?"
"Probably because there have been so many activities before, everyone didn't pay attention to the Student Council council election, and it's only now that we've gathered all the candidates." Yukino Yukinoshita rested her knuckles on her chin, her voice slightly hesitant.
Dong Yunshan noticed her hesitation. "You want to run for Student Council council... to be the Student Council?"
Given Yukino Yukinoshita's personality, if she were to participate in the Student Council election, her goal would inevitably be the Student Council, who wields the most power.
"Hmm." Yukino Yukinoshita nodded slightly. "To be precise, I want to further improve my problem-solving skills by taking on the role of Student Council."
Dong Yunshan sighed softly, "It will be very tough."
"That's why there was an improvement." Yukino Yukinoshita pursed her lips. "What are your thoughts?"
"Don't you understand my thoughts?" Dong Yunshan smiled helplessly. "Wanting to make changes is a good thing, especially knowing how difficult it is, but is it too late now? It's already been made public."
"Additional candidates can register, as long as they prepare their application materials and a list of signatories."
"List of Signatories?"
"A candidate must have the endorsement of at least thirty people," Yukino Yukinoshita explained. "Therefore, a list of at least thirty signatories is required."
"That's not difficult; you can basically gather enough by finding a few friends..." Dong Yunshan paused, "Do you want to try it yourself?"
"... Um."
Dong Yunshan chuckled, "Don't want my help?"
"No."
"Isn't that right?"
"No, no~" Yukino Yukinoshita put Dong Yunshan's legs together and sat on them skillfully. "It's probably... something like this?"
Dong Yunshan put his arm around her waist and honestly expressed his thoughts. "I didn't understand."
"I appreciate your help, and I hope you will help me in return." Yukino Yukinoshita gently poked his chest. "So we can't waste your help on things that aren't needed."
"I understand, but not completely." Dong Yunshan supported her legs. "What were you referring to as that feeling you were talking about?"
"That's the feeling." Yukino Yukinoshita held his shoulders, leaned close to his ear, and gently breathed warm air into his ear. "The same thing, done here, can only go so far. But if we did it at home..."
The same help, if used where it is not needed, can only have a very limited effect.
If used properly, it can create even more value.
Dong Yunshan's eyes lit up. "Actually, it's here..."
"No." Yukino Yukinoshita bit his ear as a warning. "This is school, this is the club room, you can't do this... ugh!"
Unable to finish her sentence, Yukino Yukinoshita clenched her small fists and pounded on his chest as he warmed her.
My strength is getting weaker and weaker.
What started as hitting gradually turned into gentle caresses.
Then, following the contours of his body, she wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Mmm... Huff~" Yukino Yukinoshita's moist cherry lips parted slightly, her breath coming out in hot air as she breathed heavily. "I... I can only do this much... I can't go any further..."
"Anything else?"
"Put your hand down again..." Yukino Yukinoshita stopped abruptly halfway through her sentence, then placed her small hand on Dong Yunshan's waist. "I'm warning you, not reminding you. Did you take what I said about prohibitions as a hint?"
"Uh..." Dong Yunshan blinked her innocent big eyes, "Wasn't it a hint?"
"Awooo!" Unable to bear it any longer, Yukino Yukinoshita pounced on his shoulder, tore open his collar, and bit him.
"Hiss--~" Dong Yunshan's body stiffened, then gradually relaxed. "Yes, yes, that's it. Hold on a little longer, you can push a little harder... Whew~"
Chapter 574 Next Topic
"The atmosphere is still the same as before, it doesn't feel any different..." In the activity room after class, Yui Yuigahama glanced to the side, "Komachi, did you notice?"
"It's indeed as harmonious as before." Komachi Hikigaya held up a stewed pear and looked up. "At least I haven't found any problems. The request should be considered resolved satisfactorily."
"Wasn't it already resolved? We still need to monitor it..." Saki Kawasaki paused, then said, "Sorry, I wasn't paying attention."
Dong Yunshan waved the new flavor in her hand, "Everyone has their own expertise."
"In terms of the process, we did provide assistance," Yukino Yukinoshita, turning the pages of her book. "In terms of the result, the status quo was indeed maintained."
"So... the commission is finished." Dong Yunshan clapped his hands. "Let's move on to the next topic."
"Next topic?" Yui Yuigahama's eyes lit up. "Where are we going to go for fun?"
"It's not playing, it's..." Yukino Yukinoshita started to say, but stopped when she heard the knock on the door. She replied, "Come in."
"Excuse me~" Shizuka Hiratsuka flung open the door, letting the wind rush in and making her long hair fly wildly. "I need your help with something."
"I was wondering why the teacher remembered to knock..." Yukino Yukinoshita sighed softly, "Did you forget to finish some work?"
"I sometimes knock on doors... right?" Shizuka Hiratsuka herself wasn't quite sure. "It's not my job—come in."
Shizuka Hiratsuka called out, and someone outside the door gently said, "Excuse me," before entering.
The familiar double braids, the bangs secured with hair clips, the gentle smile... it was none other than Student Council Meguri Shiromeguri.
"We have something we'd like to ask you..." Meguri Shiromeguri looked at the girl behind him.
The girl obediently took a step forward, her flaxen medium-length hair swaying in the breeze.
Her flowing hair paired with bright, large eyes and a slightly shy smile on her face, along with the overly long sleeves of her cardigan held gently in her palms, made her appear delicate and adorable.
"Ah, Iroha!" Yui Yuigahama recognized her instantly.
Dong Yunshan recalled the previous judo competition.
At that time, the first-year student who was serving as the Soccer Club manager— Iroha Isshiki —straightforwarded into the event...
"Yui Yuigahama- senpai~" Iroha Isshiki raised her hand and waved gently, her smile growing even brighter. "Hello~~~"
"So you two know each other." Seeing the interaction between the two, Meguri Shiromeguri nodded in satisfaction. "Then I don't need to introduce you anymore. Let's get straight to the point—as you all know, the Student Council council elections are coming up soon, right?"
Komachi Hikigaya & Yui Yuigahama & Saki Kawasaki: "?"
"Uh... yeah..." Meguri Shiromeguri instantly darkened. "That's how the Student Council is... nobody cares... no matter how much they promote it..."
"I know," Yukino Yukinoshita said. "An announcement has already been made."
"As expected of Yukinoshita- kun, you're right, the candidate list has already been announced." Meguri Shiromeguri clapped his hands happily. "Actually, the vote should have been held earlier. But because we couldn't gather enough candidates, we decided to postpone it. If the successor isn't chosen soon, I won't be able to hand over the reins... Waaaaah~"
She jokingly pretended to cry twice.
"The school is relying on you too much." Shizuka Hiratsuka clicked her tongue, expressing her dissatisfaction bluntly. "Personally, I hoped to complete the handover during the sports meet, but those guys are worried about something going wrong, so they insist on dragging it out... What if it delays your graduation?"
"No, no, not at all!" Meguri Shiromeguri waved his hand with a smile, "Besides, I've already recommended you for admission, so you don't need to prepare for the university entrance exam."
In conclusion, the entire Student Council union leadership formed an election management committee, treating the leadership transition as their final task.
Then a problem arose.
Meguri Shiromeguri glanced at Iroha Isshiki and said, "Iroha Isshiki is running for Student Council this year."
Yukino Yukinoshita narrowed her eyes slightly, then her expression returned to normal.
An opponent...? Dong Yunshan looked at Iroha Isshiki.
Hmm, it's not difficult.
"Ah!" Iroha Isshiki noticed Dong Yunshan's gaze, raised her hand to cover her smile, "Don't you think I look completely inappropriate?"
Dong Yunshan shook his head. "You can't judge a book by its cover."
"People often say I'm slow-witted and a step behind, so I know very well..." Iroha Isshiki her hands on her hips, looking a little unhappy. "I really don't fit in with the Student Council."
"Oh?" Dong Yunshan raised one eyebrow. "You mean...?"
"Ah! Right, right, I forgot to mention the most important thing," Meguri Shiromeguri added. "Iroha Isshiki is running for Student Council... but, how should I put it... I hope you can help her prevent her from being elected."
"Hmm..." Yui Yuigahama, then suddenly looked up, "Hmm?"
Komachi Hikigaya looked at Iroha Isshiki: "So, even though you're a candidate, you don't want to be the Student Council."
"Yes, yes." Iroha Isshiki nodded vigorously. "That's right."
Yukino Yukinoshita frowned slightly. "... Then why are you even running for election?"
"Actually, I didn't register to run; someone else used my name." Iroha Isshiki said, a perfectly timed hint of shyness and embarrassment appearing on her face. "Hmm... I wonder if it's because I attract attention? This kind of thing happens all the time... I'm also the manager of the Soccer Club, and I'm very close to Hayato Hayama- senpai and the other upperclassmen... They probably think I'm very suitable to be the Student Council because of my personality."
Yui Yuigahama her hand and asked, just like in class, "But can a student register to run for office on behalf of someone else?"
"Generally speaking, that wouldn't work," Teacher Hiratsuka sighed. "But... when the application documents were submitted, it wasn't confirmed that it was really you."
"Waaah..." Meguri Shiromeguri lowered his head in shame, "It's all our election committee's fault for being so negligent..."
"There's nothing we can do. Nobody would have expected someone to play a prank and impersonate someone else to register for the election." Teacher Hiratsuka patted her shoulder. "It's too harsh to say it's your fault."
Meguri Shiromeguri murmured, "We carefully checked the list of signatories..."
"If I remember correctly, the threshold for a petition was thirty people." Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes narrowed dangerously. "So, there are... thirty people involved?"
Yui Yuigahama was startled. "This... so much?"
Chapter 575 Killing Two Birds with One Stone
Although Iroha Isshiki lighthearted tone, saying, "I'm so sorry I'm so cute."
But it's hard to determine whether this kind of behavior of [making a smug person look bad] is teasing, bullying, or... bullying.
Especially when it involves thirty people.
"Don't worry, I'll handle these pranksters." Shizuka Hiratsuka's expression was complicated. "The thirty people on the signatory list all provided genuine information."
Dong Yunshan clicked his tongue. "A little brat."
"The kind that lacks critical thinking skills," Shizuka Hiratsuka, waving her finger beside her head. "Completely unaware of the seriousness of the problem."
In schools like Sobu High School, which emphasizes college entrance exams, if a large-scale bullying incident involving 30 people occurs, everyone involved, including teachers, will face punishment.
Yukino Yukinoshita frowned slightly. "Seeking self-affirmation and social connection through extreme means...?"
"Ah... um?" Yui Yuigahama's expression froze. "What?"
"Like those people, right? These days, don't young people often post about the bad things they've done online? They don't even hide their real names or faces." Komachi Hikigaya shook her head helplessly. "To attract attention and gain the illusion of success."
8396
"Because they can't gain recognition through positive behavior, they resort to negative behavior to gain attention. Revealing their true identity is also a way to achieve this distorted self-identity." Yukino Yukinoshita icy. "Because the goal is to be seen, they won't hide anything."
"Would young people these days act like this?" Saki Kawasaki suddenly became nervous.
"Don't worry about your brother, he's studying hard," Komachi Hikigaya reassured him with a smile. "I don't need to worry about my brother either, he uses incognito mode when he goes online."
"You yourselves are young people, yet you're worried about other young people?" Shizuka Hiratsuka glanced at Dong Yunshan. "I have been worried though..."
Dong Yunshan smiled and said, "No matter what I say, I would never be that childish."
"Don't worry," Yukino Yukinoshita said with a hint of pride, "I'll correct him."
"You two are having a good chat, don't stop now," Shizuka Hiratsuka said with a disapproving look. "Anyway, now it's Iroha Isshiki's problem that needs to be solved."
"Let's talk a little longer~" Iroha Isshiki's eyes sparkled. "How did you correct it?"
"Let's solve your problem first," Meguri Shiromeguri gently reminded him. "There will be plenty of opportunities later; they'll show off on their own."
Yukino Yukinoshita blushed, pursed her lips, and glared angrily at Dong Yunshan.
Dong Yunshan nodded. "Please stay tuned for the next episode."
"Um~" Yui Yuigahama raised her hand, "Can't we disqualify Iroha from the competition? Is there a way to withdraw... like asking the teacher?"
