May stammered, "I was just joking. Miku is in my room too, so I can't let you sleep there."

Hayakawa was immediately puzzled, thinking, "If I really go to sleep in your room, then won't you and Miku both have to go to Miku's original room to sleep? The way you're talking makes it sound like you'll stay in the room to sleep too."

That's obviously not right.

Hayakawa didn't dwell on the issue too much. He just wanted to go to bed early and get enough rest for tomorrow's exam. Before that, he needed to figure out why he had been sighing and complaining before May.

"I've been lying here for a while, and I've been hearing you sighing the whole time. What's wrong?"

Hayakawa considered his words for a moment, then asked, "May, is something bothering you?"

"You've been here since just now. You didn't say anything to warn me when I came over. You were just eavesdropping the whole time?"

May looked up at Hayakawa, her tone carrying a hint of anger: "Hayakawa-kun, that's going too far."

"Ahem..." May's plaintive voice made her sound like a lewd pervert eavesdropping on girls' private conversations, which made Hayakawa a little embarrassed. He made up an excuse and said, "I thought you just wanted to look at the night view, so I didn't make a sound to disturb you. Didn't I call you later?"

"Yeah, it almost scared my heart out."

In May, the expressionless chatter of Ling Lin and Shan Liu Zhou in the authentic group chat clearly conveyed a sense of accusation.

"That's not the point. The point is why you sighed."

Hayakawa said seriously, "Let me be frank with you, tomorrow is the final exam, and I have two subjects. If there are any unresolved issues now, I definitely won't perform well tomorrow, and all my efforts tonight will be wasted. I don't want that, and I don't think you want that either."

"..."

May remained silent, head bowed, not uttering a word.

Hayakawa thought for a moment, then tried to make her tone gentle: "Tell me whatever it is, I'll listen carefully to whatever it is."

After saying this, Hayakawa looked at May expectantly.

He's already been a pretty good guy by his own words, and he's been trying his best to imitate the kind and gentle male protagonist that's so popular among high school girls these days. It's about time he voiced his girlish worries.

However, things didn't go as planned. May kept her head down, her lips tightly pressed together like a stubborn white clam.

Upon witnessing this scene, Hayakawa's heart sank to the deepest part of his body.

This reaction most likely indicates heartbreak...

"May…"

Hayakawa hesitated for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Have you broken up with your boyfriend?"

"Huh?! What are you talking about?"

May, who had been silent just moments before, seemed to have regained the ability to use her vocal cords. She looked up at Hayakawa in disbelief and exclaimed, "I've never even had a boyfriend, how could I possibly be dumped so easily?"

"Ah, is that so?"

Hearing May say that she had never had a boyfriend, Hayakawa breathed a huge sigh of relief. The cabbage he had been longing for was back in the garden, which made him feel extremely gratified.

It's true that people who love learning shouldn't get involved in romantic relationships.

"Then why are you sighing?"

Hayakawa thought for a moment and said, "Since it has nothing to do with feelings, it's okay to tell me, I can comfort you."

May looked at Hayakawa somewhat reluctantly and whispered, "Why do I have to tell you? We're the same age..."

"Don't think of us as the same age. I also have another role: your tutor. There's a saying that a teacher is like a father, meaning you should respect your teacher as you would your own father."

Hayakawa stared at May with wide eyes, her expression serious and expectant, her eyes shining as she said, "So you can treat me like your father!"

Nakano Satsuki: "..."

If May hadn't known Hayakawa's personality beforehand, she would have definitely punched him. It's not fair to bully an honest person like that.

"How about it?"

Seeing that May remained silent, Hayakawa pressed on, "Is it not allowed?"

Looking into Hayakawa's pure, sincere, and seemingly radiant eyes, May became even angrier.

The fact that someone says something with such a sincere look in their eyes is even more infuriating!

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you then,"

In May, feeling helpless, all she could say was, "Actually, I've been very anxious lately..."

Hayakawa listened attentively, genuinely wanting to comfort the girl, but it was to no avail.

It's very simple; May didn't reveal the real reason.

The real reason... is something I absolutely cannot tell Hayakawa.

Chapter 534 The Discovery in May

Rewinding time, the five girls and Hayakawa had just finished studying and were about to go upstairs to sleep when May suddenly noticed that Hayakawa hadn't returned to his room. Thinking he was still studying in the living room, she went downstairs to look for him out of concern.

But when he saw him talking to Ichika, he quickly hid by the stairs and secretly eavesdropped.

May didn't dare to get too close, and Hayakawa and the others deliberately kept their voices down, so May couldn't hear their conversation, but she could at least see what they were doing.

Then... she saw Hayakawa pin Ichika against the wall.

"??? Ling Meng'er Cu Ling Wushan Yan Qi Ying"

What happened?

For a moment, May even thought the two were arguing, or that Hayakawa was bullying Ichika because of his strength as a boy. She hesitated whether she should go down and stop them, but before she could say a few words, Ichika forcibly kissed Hayakawa.

"..."

At that moment, May understood everything.

It wasn't an argument or bullying at all; it was just a young couple flirting and being affectionate in private.

How could this be? Wasn't Hayakawa being pursued by Nino? How could she suddenly be with Ichika? How heartbroken Nino must be if she knew this... So, the hotel booking records she saw at that inn were indeed real?

May had a million questions in her heart, and a strange bitterness slowly welled up from the bottom of her heart. It seemed to be because of Nino's grievances, but it also seemed to hide other emotions. It was a mixture of feelings, as if she had smashed up a spice shop.

Later, Ichika escaped, and May could only hurry upstairs to her room to avoid being discovered.

May lay in bed for a long time in her room, wanting to sleep but tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, her mind replaying the scene she had just witnessed at the stairwell.

No, I won't be able to sleep no matter what I do.

May sat up, her freshly washed and dried, fluffy hair falling messily over her shoulders and face, making her look somewhat disheveled. Her mood was also somewhat chaotic, with an inexplicable urge to run outside and shout.

I'm so disappointed...

Nakano Satsuki sat on the bed for a long time, then suddenly remembered what she had said to Hayakawa at the ramen shop, and murmured, "I still have to bring Hayakawa some hot milk."

As if she had suddenly found a suitable reason, May sat up abruptly and quickly made hot milk. However, although her movements were very gentle, they still woke up another girl in the room.

"What's wrong, May?"

Miku, who had been fast asleep without her noticing, groggily opened her eyes and asked May a question.

"No...nothing."

May didn't know how to answer, so she could only say, "I'm a little thirsty and want to drink something. Miku, you should go to sleep."

"Oh, okay, May, you should go to bed early too, you have to get up early tomorrow morning..."

Miku mumbled something, it was hard to tell if she was talking in her sleep or truly awake, but after saying that, she lay down and drifted back to sleep.

It's so nice to be a person without worries...

May glanced at Miku, who was already fast asleep, pursed her lips slightly, then quietly opened the door and carefully went to Hayakawa's room next door. She then reached out and turned the doorknob.

The door wasn't locked...

May was overjoyed. She suddenly felt a strange sense of guilt, like a thief, so she was reluctant to knock. Now that the door was unlocked, it was best to just go in.

creak

May opened the door quietly, entered the room, closed the door, looked at the bed, and whispered, "Hayakawa-san, are you asleep?"

There was no response from the room.

May paused for a moment, then walked a few steps to the bedside. There was no Hayakawa on the bed, not even a shadow of him.

really…

Wu Qiyue, holding the plate, suddenly felt weak, bit her pink lips, and looked dejected.

As expected, Hayakawa isn't in Miku's room...

If he's not in Miku's room, then it can only be in Ichika's room.

Nakano Satsuki felt even more disappointed when she recalled the shocking scene from earlier. In fact, one of the reasons she couldn't sleep in her room was that she thought Hayakawa might have gone to Ichika's room to sleep.

When you arrive at your lover's house, of course you should sleep with them.

But what about the milk I just made? Who will drink it?

Looking at the steaming milk on the plate she was holding, May felt no desire to drink it, nor did she feel sleepy at all.

Knowing she wouldn't be able to sleep anytime soon, she simply placed the plate on Hayakawa's bedside table, planning to go downstairs to the living room to get some fresh air and enjoy the night view before taking it back upstairs to sleep.

And so the scene just now unfolded: the girl May was standing by the window sighing, when Hayakawa, lying on the sofa, inexplicably called out to her. The girl was shocked, and then he questioned her.

……

How could I tell Hayakawa about these things!

So May remained silent, refusing to say anything no matter how Hayakawa threatened or tempted her. In the end, she made up an excuse about being anxious about exams, which Hayakawa believed and stopped asking questions.

Just then, May suddenly remembered the hot milk she had left in Miku's room, and her eyes lit up as she said to Hayakawa, "Hayakawa-san, wait for me."

After saying that, she turned around and went upstairs without waiting for Hayakawa's reaction.

"Ok?"

Hayakawa looked in the direction she left with a puzzled expression, but less than a minute later, she came down the stairs again, carefully carrying a plate in her hand.

"What are you doing?"

Hayakawa looked at the plate that Kozuki was holding, with a steaming glass in the middle.

"Hot milk."

May presented the glass to Hayakawa with the air of a treasure, then said with some regret, "I'm sorry, it's gotten a little cold after a while. Shall I go heat it up now?"

"No, no, no need to trouble yourself."

Hayakawa quickly reached out and took it, then sincerely thanked her, saying, "You even made milk for me, thank you so much, May."

"hey-hey…

May blushed slightly, chuckled, and said, "I just finished making it, and then I went to your room to look for you, but you weren't there, so..."

May suddenly stopped talking. In the morning, she looked at him in confusion and asked, "And then? What happened to you?"

"And then I..."

May stammered and couldn't say anything; she couldn't very well say she suspected you had gone to sleep in Ichika's room.

"That means you went downstairs to the restroom."

May had a sudden inspiration: "That's why I came down to look for you. I found you weren't in the bathroom, so I looked at the night view. I didn't expect to find you here."

"I'm used to sleeping here."

Hayakawa finished the milk in a few gulps, then glanced at May and asked, "Is there anything else?"

"…there is none left."

May paused slightly upon hearing this, then bit her lip and said.

Chapter 535 Questioning

May knew that Hayakawa meant to see her off. In fact, it was already very late, and it had been time to go to bed long ago. However, she had stayed up too late, and if she continued to chat like this, she would not only disturb Hayakawa's rest, but she would also not be able to get enough sleep herself.

"It's getting late, I'm going back to sleep."

Although May felt a little regretful, she still whispered goodbye to Hayakawa: "Goodnight, Hayakawa."

"OK, good night."

Hayakawa nodded to May, then raised his empty glass to him: "Thank you, May."

May turned her head and smiled politely at Hayakawa: "It's nothing."

After saying that, she turned around and walked back up the stairs.
