Chapter 41: The Black Forest Cake Passed Without Major Mishaps
Fortunately, after two weeks of intensive tutoring, Miya Yu and Miya Osamu both barely passed their exams.
As expected, Akina Amaho came in first place, and after the list was posted, many people were discussing this.
Gong You also saw the list.
At lunchtime, they sat together on the rooftop again. Gong You sighed, "How did Mingna manage to get such good grades?"
It's really incomprehensible, and because she did so well on the exam, it even feels like she's abandoned them.
"Because I study very hard all the time," said Akina Amami as she opened her lunchbox.
The final exams are over, and after their last day of classes, they will be going home for the holidays.
“Just by looking at Mina’s notebook, you can tell how hard she works in class,” Miyaji said.
Otherwise, how could Akina Amaho have gotten first place so easily?
"What's so fun about studying? I just can't concentrate on studying." Gong You pouted.
The thing he couldn't understand the most was why Mina was able to enjoy learning so much.
"Yeah, it feels the same as when you play volleyball." Akina Amami shrugged.
Gong You let out a long sigh.
"Today, as a reward for your success in passing the final exams, I'll treat you to an extra pudding, which I made myself," said Akina Amami, handing two small boxes to the two of them.
Gong Zhi's eyes lit up, he said "thank you" and took the box.
He opened the box, took a careful bite, and found it to be just as delicious as the one he had eaten before.
"By the way, how about we go out together for Christmas?"
Gong You also took the box, but he didn't eat it right away. He planned to wait until the end to savor this delicious food, so he simply opened his own lunchbox.
"If it's Christmas, we can still make it to the last day of the art exhibition." Akina Amamiya suddenly remembered that she had missed the art exhibition for two weeks because she was tutoring them.
If we don't go now, this art exhibition will really be over.
Well... although there are some Impressionist paintings among them, which she wanted to see, there are also some Picasso paintings, but most likely these two people wouldn't understand them.
After all, Picasso's paintings are too abstract at first glance.
“Then let’s go to the art exhibition together.” Miyaji took another bite of pudding, his voice a little muffled.
"Let's buy something else to celebrate tomorrow! It'll be a way of thanking Mina for tutoring us." Miya Yu had already decided that they could probably buy something to eat together tomorrow.
Of course, I hope everything won't be sold out because of Christmas.
"Well, we should still have time to have dinner together after we get back from the art exhibition tomorrow. As for the art exhibition, let's go together tomorrow afternoon." Akina Amami nodded.
"It won't take that long to see the art exhibition, so let's take a good rest in the morning."
Tomorrow is Christmas Day, time really flies!
Akina Amane sighed.
"Can't we come over to play with you in the morning?" Gong You asked.
I don't know why, but I always felt that his expression at this moment was a little pitiful.
Akina Amako sighed, "Sure, if you want to come, just come over, as long as it's not too early."
Gong You let out a soft "Yay!" as he secretly celebrated.
Miyaji could tell at a glance that this guy was planning to harass Amaho Akina first thing in the morning.
He sighed, thinking that he should try to stop Gong You from going too early tomorrow.
Of course, he will go there with Gong You when the time is right.
"Well then, to celebrate passing the final exams, let's have lunch together tomorrow. We'll treat you to a meal," Gong Zhi said.
He's accumulated a lot of coupons, so this time he can eat at a different restaurant instead of the barbecue place he went to last time.
It's another sushi restaurant; I don't know how it tastes, but I've heard the reviews are very good. However, I haven't tried it yet.
After thinking about it, Akina Amane thought the suggestion was good. She was also very tired and didn't want to cook lunch tomorrow.
So she nodded: "Okay, let's go eat together tomorrow."
After that was settled, after school, Akina Amaho was still dragged to the volleyball club by the twins.
During this period, she didn't care whether she went home or came to the volleyball club. After confirming that her presence here wouldn't have any impact on them, Amamiya completely relaxed.
Kita Shinsuke walked over to her again, and after relaxing, Amaho Akina sat down on a bench in the rest area.
She looked up and glanced at Kita Shinsuke, who was standing next to her.
"Senior Kita, are you really not going to consider letting those two focus more on their studies?" She raised her hand and pointed at Miya Yu and Miyaji, who were in the room.
Yes, when playing volleyball, his eyes sparkle and he's very focused.
If only they could put some of the energy they have for playing volleyball into their studies.
Nobusuke Kita: "This is probably very difficult to do."
He glanced at Akina Amaho.
"Thank you for tutoring them anyway."
Akina Amane shook her head: "It's okay. I'm just a little worried. I'll be transferring schools next year. What will they do about their exams then?"
Akina Amane sighed.
This was the first time Kita Shinsuke had heard from Amaho Akina about her transferring schools. He looked at Miya Yu and Miyaji in the room and asked, "Do they already know about this?"
If they don't know yet, and only find out later, they'll definitely make a scene.
Akina Amane nodded: "Yes, I've already told them about it."
After the brief conversation ended, they fell silent, and Kita Shinsuke also got up and joined the training.
During the break, Miyako and Miyaji came over, a little curious, because they had just seen Akina Amaho talking to Shinsuke Kita.
They didn't necessarily think there was anything between the two; they were simply curious about what they were talking about.
"What were you talking about just now?" Miyaji asked.
“I saw Senior Bei standing next to you for a while,” Gong You added.
Akina Tensui looked at them with a forced smile.
"Speaking of your studies, I'm transferring schools next year, so I'll have to find someone else to help you with your exam results."
Otherwise, she wouldn't have taken the initiative to talk to Kita Shinsuke.
"Ah... As for this matter, Mina doesn't need to worry anymore, hahaha." Miyako laughed awkwardly a few times, never expecting to hear such words from Minako.
He was aware, however, that their results were truly worrying.
But I never expected that I would be so worried about their grades!
Gong You was a little touched: "Minnai, you actually care about us this much?"
Akina Ama rubbed her temples.
"It's just normal level of worry."
She was a little uncomfortable with Gong You's gaze and turned her head away.
"Probably because if you fail, they'll definitely bombard Mina with messages," Miyaji shrugged.
Just imagining it is enough to picture this scene.
Even though she passed this time, Miyako grabbed Amako Akina's arm and cheered several times.
Akina Amane shook her head: "I'm not bothered by the barrage of news."
She had gotten used to the frequency with which Gong You sent her messages, and could barely accept it.
"I'm still worried that if you fail the test, you won't be able to participate in the training as usual." Such a result must be hard for them to accept.
Gong Zhi: "Actually, it's not that serious."
Gong You: "If you really want to participate in the training, you just need to skip the make-up classes for the ones you failed!"
Miyaji: "Anyway, as long as we get good grades, the teachers won't say anything to us."
Gong You nodded seriously.
Akina Amane was stunned for a moment, feeling both annoyed and amused.
It's truly baffling what they're thinking to make skipping tutoring classes sound so natural.
She crossed her arms and said, "So, does that mean I don't have to tutor you this time?"
Akina Amaho raised an eyebrow, but she hadn't heard anything about the volleyball team having any training during the holiday.
Gong You immediately deflated: "No, no, we are extremely grateful that Mina can help us with our studies."
Gong Zhi's head drooped as well: "Well, after all, we have no reason to avoid remedial classes and make-up exams this time."
"If we fail, we won't get our holiday!" they said in unison.
Akina Amazu scratched her head, not knowing what to say.
Seriously, those two.
However, it's also a lot of fun.
She smiled slightly, her eyes crinkling: "Alright, but such good things won't happen again in the future."
After all, once I transfer to a school in Tokyo, I won't have this kind of opportunity again.
Gong You and Gong Zhi exchanged a glance.
They couldn't possibly persuade Akina Amaho not to transfer schools. Although it was regrettable and they would be heartbroken by her departure, going to Tokyo would be more beneficial for her development.
So Miya Yu said, "We will definitely come to Tokyo to see you again."
Anyway, as long as they make it to the national competition, they can go to Tokyo, and they are very confident about it.
"Besides, even if you go to Tokyo, we can still keep in touch. If there are any problems, we'll send you messages on social media or call you," Miyaji added.
Akina Amane thought, it seems that even if she goes to Tokyo, she still can't escape the fate of tutoring them.
She shook her head helplessly: "Yes, I will contact you too."
As she spoke, she extended her two little fingers: "Come on, let's pinky swear, our connection will never be broken."
Gong You extended his left hand, while Gong Zhi extended his right hand. Their little fingers touched, and at that moment, they made a promise.
