"Huh? Izumi?" Yunyi was stunned for a moment, then looked down into the car and immediately saw Kasumi Saegusa hiding inside.
"What are you two doing here? Your school should be in the opposite direction, right?" Yunyi asked, puzzled.
"Yes, that's right. We were just a little worried about my sister, so we came to pick her up as soon as school was over," Izumi Saegusa explained.
"We didn't skip class; we obediently waited until after school to come!" Kasumi Saegusa added in defense.
"Honestly, I didn't blame you." Yunyi rubbed his temples helplessly.
He turned to Tatsuya Shiba and the others behind him and said, " Tatsuya, and everyone else, I'll be heading back with those two. See you all tomorrow!"
"Okay, see you tomorrow."
After saying goodbye to the others, Yunyi opened the car door and got in.
As soon as he got into the car, Kasumi Saegusa and Izumi Saegusa immediately tensed up. Yunyi was somewhat helpless about this, but he couldn't say anything at the moment, since there was also an outsider, Nagura, in the car.
Nagura also saw this scene in the back seat through the rearview mirror. He was also a little curious about what method Yunyi had used to make the two little devils from the Saegusa Family so obedient.
After dropping the three of them off at home, Nagura took his leave. His job was simply to pick up and drop off the twins; otherwise, he had to avoid appearing in Yunyi's sight as much as possible. This was Koichi Saegusa's instruction to him, but Koichi Saegusa didn't elaborate on why.
As soon as he entered, Yunyi looked at the two little ones following behind him.
"Tell me, what do you want for dinner tonight?"
Upon hearing Yunyi's question, the twins exchanged a glance. After a moment, Izumi Saegusa tentatively asked, "Mapo Tofu?"
Kasumi Saegusa added, "Lion's Head?"
Yunyi nodded. Since he had asked, he wouldn't mind the trouble. Besides, the two dishes the twins ordered were quite easy to make.
"I'll go prepare first. If there's anything else you'd like to eat, you can let me know. You don't need to be so reserved or cautious here. I won't harm Mayumi, and naturally, I won't hurt you either." Yunyi reached out and ruffled the two little ones' heads.
Sensing Yunyi's friendly attitude, the twins lowered their guard somewhat. Especially the feeling of being touched on the head by a member of the opposite sex; apart from their father doing this when they were very young, Yunyi was the first to do so.
Of the five children in the Saegusa Family, the eldest and second eldest are both male. However, they were born to Koichi Saegusa's ex-wife, while Mayumi Saegusa and her twins are the children of his current wife.
Their relationship was fairly harmonious, but the fact that they were half-siblings created some distance between them. Therefore, the two older brothers rarely stayed overnight at the mansion and spent most of their time living outside. In particular, Tomokazu Saegusa, as the next head of the Saegusa Family, had to handle many things personally, which naturally led to some neglect in his treatment of his younger siblings.
Yunyi's current attitude towards the two children made them feel somewhat unfamiliar, yet also somewhat longing. Perhaps, this person really wouldn't hurt them? Perhaps, this person genuinely cared for their older sister? With these thoughts in their minds, it was natural for the two children to develop some goodwill and anticipation towards Yunyi.
Yunyi quickly prepared dinner and urged the two little ones to eat first. After they had finished eating, Mayumi Saegusa returned home.
However, she seemed to be in good spirits and did not show any signs of fatigue, which reassured Yunyi and the twins somewhat.
"How's it going? Is the work almost done?" Yunyi asked after Mayumi Saegusa sat down.
"Yes, everything's almost arranged. Once the election is over in two weeks, I can step down as president," Mayumi Saegusa replied.
"By the way, Yunyi-kun, I heard that you refused Miyuki and the others' request to continue studying with you this afternoon? May I ask why you did that?" Mayumi Saegusa suddenly remembered this news she had overheard.
"Huh? This has reached your side?" Yunyi was taken aback for a moment before replying, "It's not a big deal. It's just that my relationship with them is just so-so. It's inevitable that they'll resist the physical contact during teaching. But I can only help them understand through that method, which can't be explained simply by stating the principles. So, since they resisted, I naturally didn't insist."
At this point, Yunyi paused slightly before continuing, "Anyway, they won't have much impact on the plan. Without their assistance, it'll just be a little more troublesome."
Mayumi Saegusa nodded slightly. She didn't know the full details of the plan Yunyi had mentioned. It wasn't that Yunyi didn't want to tell her, but rather that she didn't want to delve into it for the time being. She wanted to enjoy her life now, and it wouldn't be too late for her to find out more once the plan was actually implemented and exposed to everyone.
The twins listening to their conversation seemed a bit bewildered, especially Izumi, who seemed completely confused when she heard words like " Miyuki " and "study".
Having watched the Nine Schools Competition, she had become infatuated with the beautiful young lady Miyuki Shiba. Today, in front of the automated train station, if it weren't for her fear of Yunyi, she would have already gotten off the train and approached Miyuki Shiba to offer herself.
But now, what she's hearing is making it hard for her to process.
Does someone as capable and perfect as Miyuki Shiba need to learn from Yunyi? Isn't this person even more amazing?
Thinking of this, Izumi Saegusa decided to watch some videos of Yunyi in the Nine Schools Competition Tournament tonight. She wanted to see who was more outstanding and more capable between this girl in front of her and the girl she admired!
After dinner, Yunyi went back to his room first, Mayumi Saegusa and the twins tidied up together.
After tidying up, Mayumi Saegusa was about to go upstairs when she saw Izumi Saegusa sitting in the living room, with their Nine Schools Competition match playing on the TV.
This immediately piqued Mayumi Saegusa's interest. She went to the living room, sat down next to her sister, and asked, "What's Izumi? Are you interested in this Nine Schools Competition?"
"No, that's not it, sister. I just wanted to watch his match," Izumi Saegusa replied softly.
"Him?" Mayumi Saegusa was stunned for a moment before realizing who her younger sister was referring to as "him".
" Izumi, have you and Kasumi always called Yunyi-kun that?"
