What a moving speech!

"Are you really leaving?" Mika Yuuki grabbed Matsuna Yuuki's arm and asked again.

She added, "Why don't you just give up being a sorcerer, Matsuna? Mommy will die of heartbreak if you leave her."

“Mommy, please don’t stop your child from moving forward.” Yuki Matsuna was already used to Yuki Mika’s exaggerated statements, and she wasn’t scared at all.

"Alright." Seeing that Yuki Matsuna's attitude was really firm, Yuki Mika stopped trying to stop her.

But then she suddenly put her arm around Yuuki Matsuna's shoulder, pulled her aside, and said, "Matsuna, remember what Mommy told you, next time you come back, if you don't bring five boyfriends back, Mommy won't open the door for you."

“…It wasn’t Mommy who opened the door for me; it was the authentication system at the door that automatically recognized me and opened the door,” Yuuki Matsuna said helplessly.

She perked up, patted Mika Yuuki on the shoulder, and said confidently, "Don't worry, Mommy, next time I come back I'll definitely bring back at least five boyfriends, and I'm going to win them all over!"

The sounds of their conspiracy are so loud we can hear them completely here!

Maki looked at the several people around her with different expressions on their faces and thought to herself.

“Then, I’ll leave Matsuna to you, Gojo-sensei.” Yuki Shunichi looked at Gojo Satoru earnestly and said, “Please don’t forget what I asked you to do.”

“Of course,” Gojo Satoru replied with a smile. “I am a responsible and mature teacher, and I take matters into my own hands when it comes to the safety of my students.”

He turned around and called out to Matsuna Yuuki, who was still loudly plotting with Mika Yuuki: "Hey—Yuuki, it's time to go, or we'll be left here and have to walk back to school on our own two legs."

"What?!" Yuki Matsuna hurriedly hugged Yuki Mika and Yuki Shunichi, said goodbye, "Daddy, Mommy, I'm leaving."

She turned around and hurriedly ran towards Gojo Satoru, saying, "Wait for me, Gojo-sensei!"

Springtime, when March and April alternate, is a season when people are prone to getting sick, catching colds, and fevers.

Fushiguro Megumi felt that Yuuki Matsuna seemed a little off.

He didn't rush to the second-year classroom early in the morning to pester Yuta Otsuki and Toshiki Inuyama, nor did he go to the office to personally hand over the prepared sweets to Satoru Gojo, nor did he keep a close eye on him as usual.

After the first class ended, Fushiguro Megumi noticed Yuuki Matsuna's unusual behavior.

"Hey," Fushiguro Megumi couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

Yuuki Matsuna slumped over her desk, burying her head in her arms, her voice weak: "What? I... I'm fine, Fushiguro-kun."

It's obvious that nothing's wrong with them.

He was just about to ask a question when Yuki Matsuna's bodyguard noticed something was wrong with her. The bodyguard suddenly appeared in the classroom and stood next to Yuki Matsuna.

The bodyguard lifted Yuuki Matsuna's forehead, and Fushiguro Megumi saw that Yuuki Matsuna's face was completely red. The bodyguard then stretched out another hand and placed it on her forehead to measure her temperature.

"Miss has a fever." The bodyguard frowned and picked up Yuki Matsuna in his arms. She was so feverish that her head was spinning and she didn't react at all to being picked up.

Without a doubt, it was a high fever.

"Oh dear, I'm so sorry." Matsuna Yuuki, having regained her senses, rubbed her hair.

She looked at Fushiguro Megumi sitting in the chair and said, "She probably got a fever because she went out to see the stars after soaking in the hot springs a couple of days ago and was exposed to the cold wind for too long."

Megumi Fushiguro sat in a chair with a book in his hand. He looked up at Matsuna Yuuki and asked, "If you're not feeling well, why are you coming to class?"

My head was so hot it was all foggy, how could I not feel any discomfort?

Because her other hand was connected to an IV drip, Yuuki Matsuna could only raise her left hand. She picked up a water glass and took a big gulp of water to replenish her body's fluids.

She placed the cup back on the table beside her and replied, "I didn't expect it to be this serious, and besides—"

Yuki Matsuna paused for a moment, then grinned at Fushiguro Megumi and said, "If I stay in the dorm and don't come to class, I won't see Fushiguro-kun, and I feel like I'm missing out."

"There are five more teachers, Etotsu-senpai and Inu-maki-senpai, right?" Fushiguro Megumi had already seen through her; he turned a page of his book.

"Yes, I do." Despite being caught red-handed, Yuuki Matsuna wasn't embarrassed. Her eyes darted around as she asked, "Doesn't Fushiguro-kun have to go to class?"

“Hmm.” Fushiguro Megumi put down his book, finally looked up at Yuuki Matsuna, met her gaze, and said, “Because some idiot has a high fever, and I’m afraid something might happen to him, I’ve also taken leave.”

"Mr. Gojo has already approved it, and he even told me to take good care of that idiot who insisted on coming to class even though he was feeling unwell just to see him," he added.

“Fu...Fukuro-kun.” Even illness cannot stop the heart from beating.

Yuki Matsuna's eyes filled with love again. If her right hand hadn't been hooked up to an IV drip, she would have held Fushiguro Megumi's hands with both of them.

"I'm so touched that you actually offered to take care of me." She sniffed and added, "As expected, male high school students are the best. Mr. Gojo can't be my first wife at all. I've decided—"

Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by a knock on the door.

"Excuse me, sorry to interrupt." Yuta Otsuko pushed open the door and walked in. He looked at Megumi Fushiguro and Matsuna Yuuki, who were both looking at him, smiled, and said, "Did I interrupt your conversation?"

“…No.” Fushiguro Megumi stood up and greeted Otsukoshi Yuuta, “Otsukoshi-senpai.”

Yuta nodded, walked to the bedside, looked at Matsuna Yuuki lying on the bed, and asked softly, "Are you still feeling unwell?"

“It’s much better now!” Yuuki Matsuna shook her head, blinked, and asked, “Why is Otoko-senpai here?”

“I heard Yuuki has a fever.” Yuta Otsukotsu sat down on another chair, a calming smile on his face. “I wonder if it’s because I took Yuuki out to see the stars that he got a fever?”

"Thinking about it this way, I feel that Yuuki's fever is all because of me." Yuuta paused for a moment, then said, "Since Yuuki's fever is all because of me, it wouldn't be right for me not to take responsibility and take care of Yuuki, would it?"

Look, what a moving speech!

As expected, compared to a mature 28-year-old man, a male high school student is more likely to make a girl's heart pound.

Both Eki-senpai and Fushiguro are so captivating!

I simply can't decide which one to choose as the larger room!
