Chapter 32 Hayasaka Ai Wants Him...
It's lunch break again, and Shuchiin University's requirements for student lunches are still quite lenient.
There is a dedicated cafeteria on campus, and there is also a supermarket on campus near the cafeteria. Of course, you can also bring your own lunch.
Ever since he tasted Shirogane Miyuki's cooking, Uchiha Ryo decided to have his good friend bring him an extra meal every day.
Of course, Uchiha Ryo generously offered to cover all the cost of the ingredients, saying that all you had to do was contribute your labor.
Shirogane Miyuki felt awkward refusing, mainly because... Uchiha Ryo had given him too much. The daily allowance was more than enough for him to make four bento boxes, which would be perfect for Kei and his dad.
"Silver? What are we having for dinner today! I can already smell the aroma~"
Miyuki Shirogane chuckled, "This is my masterpiece, the result of a long period of research. I've named it Shirogane Yakisoba!"
"Stir-fried noodles?"
Shirogane Miyuki looked at Uchiha Ryo with a puzzled expression.
"What's wrong? Don't you like fried noodles?"
Uchiha Ryo shook his head. "No, it's just that you actually did research yakisoba..."
A confident smile spread across Shirogane Miyuki's face. "Of course! This smooth and chewy texture is something that ordinary instant fried noodles can't compare to!"
"..."
"Uchiha-kun, wanna go grab some bento together?"
Just as Shirogane Miyuki continued to boast about his yakisoba, a blonde hottie suddenly ran into Class 1-B, holding her lunchbox and smiling at Uchiha Ryo.
Shirogane Miyuki fell silent.
Even the other students in the class looked on with curiosity. "That looks like Hayasaka from Class A, why is she inviting Uchiha?"
Could it be...?
Could it be that...?
Miyuki Shirogane turned to look out the window and silently began eating his yakisoba. "I made...it's delicious!"
Uchiha Ryo didn't understand why Hayasaka Ai would suddenly invite him to lunch. But it was just a meal, what was there for Uchiha Ryo to fear!
"Okay, Hayasaka-san, shall we eat here?"
Hayasaka Ai shook her head, grabbed Uchiha Rin, and ran outside. "Let's find a quiet place."
In a courtyard on campus, Hayasaka Ai slowly opened her bento box. Oh wow, as expected of a maid from the Shinomiya family. Putting aside the taste, the presentation alone is several times better than Shirogane Miyuki's yakisoba.
"So, why did Hayasaka-san choose to eat lunch with me?"
Hayasaka Ai blinked her cute big eyes and raised her right hand to make a slanted peace sign.
"Because I had something to do on the weekend, I could only come to you for tutoring at noon~"
Uchiha Ryo silently took a bite of the fried noodles. Hmm? To be fair, the Silver Fried Noodles were indeed quite delicious.
Hayasaka Ai glanced at her lavish lunch, then at the simple fried noodles in Uchiha Ryo's hand. "Is this all you eat for lunch? Isn't it lacking in nutrition?"
Uchiha Ryo looked down at his yakisoba. "Well... as long as it's edible."
"I see. Well, as a reward for you coming to tutor me, here, have this."
Hayasaka Ai naturally added a small piece of fried pork cutlet to Uchiha Ryo's yakisoba bento.
This lunch arrangement, which resembled that of a couple, didn't entice Uchiha Ryo in the slightest, because Hayasaka Ai's affection level hadn't changed at all; her behavior was entirely an act.
But who could resist delicious fried pork cutlets? Uchiha Ling accepted with pleasure.
"So, you've cancelled your plans to have tutoring with me this weekend? And you were thinking of coming over at noon instead."
"Uh-huh!"
Uchiha Ryo quickly finished half a bowl of fried noodles and a piece of fried pork cutlet, and Hayasaka Ai sensibly picked up another piece for him.
After finishing the two fried pork cutlets and the silver fried noodles, Uchiha Ryo put away the lunchbox, and Hayasaka Ai handed him a skewer of her own snacks.
"This is..."
Uchiha Ryo stared at the snack in his hand, lost in thought.
Hayasaka Ai patted her chest confidently, "These are three-color mochi balls that I made myself. I'm very confident in their taste."
Seeing that Uchiha Ryo had also eaten her snacks, Hayasaka Ai looked pitiful, like a cute little rabbit.
"So what's your answer?"
"Um, the pork chop is a bit salty. As for the tricolor dumplings, I personally prefer honey to caramel sauce."
Hayasaka Ai: "???"
Is this what I want you to answer?!
Uchiha Ryo stood up. "Anyway, thank you for the side dish. I'll treat you to dinner when I tutor you this weekend."
Hayasaka Ai secretly pursed her lips, but still maintained a smile on her face.
"Wait a minute, what I meant was that the weekend tutoring is canceled. You can come at noon these two days."
But what Hayasaka Ai saw was Uchiha Ryo's back as he was about to leave.
Just kidding, lunch break is a precious rest time, how could Uchiha Ryo possibly waste it on someone like Hayasaka Ai who doesn't provide the G-spot?
A sheep that can't be sheared isn't a good sheep. Professional shepherd Uchiha Ryo says, "Aren't Chitanda and Shirogane Miyuki in class good enough? Wouldn't it be better to go to the club and chat with Yukino about Enun-chan?"
.....
"Kaguya-sama, this guy is hopeless! Does anyone even like a guy like that? He's just smart, that's all. I begged him so much, and he didn't even offer a little bit of help!"
"Oh right, he said... he actually said my fried pork cutlet was a bit salty, and the tricolor meatballs didn't suit his taste either!"
Tonight, the Shinomiya family is far from peaceful for Hayasaka Ai.
Meanwhile, Kaguya Shinomiya listened to Ai Hayasaka's complaints while studying. Her ever-present smile now held a slight upturn.
"Hayasaka, it's been a long time since I've heard you talk this much..."
"Hmph, Kaguya-sama, why don't you give me the order to take action? I'll just throw that clueless blockhead into Tokyo Bay."
Kaguya Shinomiya closed the book.
"That won't do. It's rare to find a commoner who can make me feel defeated. I will defeat him with my own strength and then recruit him as a retainer of Kaguya Shinomiya."
"Kaguya-sama: Love Is War..."
Hayasaka Ai seemed to have thought of something.
"I understand. Since he doesn't want to see me at noon, I'll reschedule the tutoring session for the banquet. I'll definitely stand him up then!"
Hayasaka Ai revealed a sly smile. She could already imagine Uchiha Ryoji's expression when he finally broke down after waiting for her to appear.
Okay! Let's do it this way!
Hayasaka Ai acted on her idea immediately, taking out her phone and contacting Uchiha Ryo.
On the other side, Uchiha Ryo was entertaining Natsume and Nyanko-sensei above.
The cat teacher has been sealed away for nearly fifty years and is not very familiar with the current situation on the mystical side.
As for Natsume, Uchiha Ryo vowed that he would not allow his younger brother to delve into the world of yokai and onmyoji, even though Natsume was only his brother in name.
