Hayakawa took a big gulp and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. The effects of the iced milk were indeed immediate, making him recover as if he had taken a blood-boosting drug.

Chapter 524 Mapo Tofu

"It's definitely better."

Hayakawa put down his cup and said in a deep voice, "Thank you, May."

"It's okay, as long as you feel better."

May noticed that his complexion had improved significantly, so she sat down with peace of mind. After thinking for a moment, she looked at Hayakawa's bright red Mapo noodles and said worriedly, "Isn't this too spicy? Should we ask them to change it?"

"No need, let's not waste food."

Hayakawa thought for a moment, picked up the milk and took a sip; "Actually, it's quite delicious. If I drink more of this, I can eat it."

"OK then."

May nodded, and the two of them chatted and ate together.

"Hiss..."

Although this Mapo Tofu Ramen was very spicy, I have to say it tasted pretty good. With the iced milk, Hayakawa had a bit of a hard time eating it, but at least he was able to experience the unique joy of spiciness.

As Hayakawa was eating, he suddenly stopped and looked at May in front of him. The girl was eating happily. Her noodles with char siu pork were clearly a level above Hayakawa's, and this was her standard order.

However, that's not the main point. The main point is that you can vaguely see a piece of ginger in the flesh covering her face.

Ginger is something that looks like meat when added to meat, and looks just like potatoes when stir-fried with potatoes. When shredded, it looks like potato shreds, and when sliced, it looks like potato slices. It's impossible to tell the difference. It's good for seasoning, but when you actually eat it, most people, except for a few with very particular tastes, can't stand it.

Hayakawa possesses superhuman vision, so she recognized the ginger hidden inside the char siu pork, but May clearly didn't see it, happily stuffing the "meat" into her mouth.

"Don't eat this."

Without thinking much for a moment, Hayakawa subconsciously stopped her.

"what?"

Nakano Satsuki was a little stunned, her chopsticks stopped in mid-air, and the next moment, she looked aggrieved: "Why did you steal my jerky? If you want some, I'll give it to you."

After saying that, she looked somewhat unwilling that her precious piece of meat had been taken away, but she still put the piece of meat into Hayakawa's bowl. Then she put away her chopsticks, pouted, and showed the expression of a child who had been bullied.

"..."

Hayakawa stared blankly at the piece of "meat" in his bowl, and after a long silence, he picked it up and handed it back to May: "You eat it, I don't need it."

"Ok?"

May was a little confused, but since she had gotten her food back, she didn't think much of it. She picked it up and put it in her mouth, biting down hard. The next moment, her little face suddenly scrunched up.

"Slight nausea..."

Nakano Satsuki's face scrunched up as if she was about to vomit. She quickly took out a piece of paper from her bag and spat the ginger in her mouth onto it, which made her feel a little better.

"Why is it a piece of ginger?"

Nakano Satsuki looked at Hayakawa with a bitter expression and said irritably, "Did you already know? Why didn't you say so?"

"I'm sorry, I told you not to eat it, but you were quite reluctant, so I thought you liked ginger, so I didn't say anything."

Hayakawa spoke calmly, but was clearly being sarcastic.

"Well…"

Unable to refute the argument in the short term, May could only lower her head and eat to vent her anger, unlike the happy chat she had just shared.

Hayakawa gave a barely perceptible smile and then silently began to eat as well.

……

It turns out that you shouldn't chat while eating. Talking at the same time not only affects digestion but also wastes time. Eating quietly is much faster. Hayakawa finished eating quickly, and the glass of milk that May brought was almost gone.

When May saw that Hayakawa's glass was empty, she silently stood up and went to the front desk of the noodle shop, and soon returned with a new glass.

"Ah...thank you."

Hayakawa was taken aback, not expecting that she had been paying attention to her all along, and quickly thanked her.

"Humph"

May seemed to still be sulking about eating ginger earlier. After hearing Hayakawa's thanks, she haughtily snorted and completely ignored Hayakawa.

So vengeful!

Hayakawa had no choice but to keep eating. With the help of a new cup of milk to relieve the spiciness, Hayakawa quickly finished her meal.

"I've finished eating, May, you..."

After wiping his mouth, Hayakawa looked at May across from him and was immediately stunned. It turned out that May had already finished eating and had been quietly waiting for him for a long time.

They order more than me and eat faster than me. Is this what May is like?

So, which of us is the real guy?

"Have you finished eating?"

May blinked at Hayakawa: "Then I'll go pay the bill."

Hayakawa wanted to pay for it himself, but May walked much faster than him, so he had to give up.

Upon returning, neither of them immediately got up to leave. Instead, they sat down to rest. Having just finished their meal, they were both a little reluctant to move and planned to sit for a while before leaving.

"Oh, right, May."

Hayakawa glanced at May and said, "What do you think about your father inviting me to be your tutor, the five sisters?"

"Huh? Tutoring? When did Father tell you about this? Was it this morning? But we were all in the car at the time."

Upon hearing this, May's eyes widened in surprise, her reddish-brown pupils filled with astonishment. She then quickly realized, "Oh, you seemed to have disappeared for a while back then, so was that when you said it..."

"That's not the point."

Hayakawa was somewhat speechless: "The key point is how you view this matter, whether you support it or not."

"Of course I support it!"

May's eyes lit up: "If you ask me whether I support it or not, then I definitely support it! Hayakawa-san is willing to tutor the five of us sisters, which is a great thing no matter what, and I support it wholeheartedly."

"That's good."

Hayakawa breathed a slight sigh of relief. May was already the most studious of the Nakano Five Sisters, and if she was unwilling, then the others probably wouldn't be either.

"So, is that settled? From now on, every holiday... no, every night, Hayakawa-kun will come over to help with tutoring?"

May leaned forward, and Hayakawa's keen sense of smell immediately detected a sweet scent emanating from her. He couldn't help but take a step back and said, "How can it be settled like that? I've only asked you and Yotsuba so far. I haven't had a chance to ask anyone else yet. And even if we really become tutors, it's impossible for it to be as frequent as you say. Are you kidding me? Going over every night? I might as well just move into your house."

"You can stay at my place..."

May muttered something under her breath, then said, "By the way, you asked Yotsuba before, what was her answer?"

She said she was fine.

Hayakawa truthfully replied, "Let me ask the others first."

"That's a very Clover-style answer."

May nodded: "But she probably does want to."

Chapter 525 Hayakawa's Wrong Thoughts

May smiled and said, "It's okay, Hayakawa-san. Everyone here is a reasonable and kind person. They know how much tutoring can help us, so they will definitely agree."

Hayakawa said, "If that's the case, then things are going quite smoothly."

"That's definitely the case, don't worry."

May nodded first, then suddenly seemed to remember something and asked, "So how much salary does Father give you each month? Is it at the level of a normal, high-quality family education?"

"I didn't ask about that in detail. I didn't teach you this for the money."

Hayakawa recalled for a moment and said, "But your father said..."

"He wouldn't withhold your salary just because you're a high school student, would he? That would be too much!"

May suddenly had a strange idea on her mind and said to Hayakawa in solidarity, "Don't worry, Hayakawa-kun, I will definitely argue with my father. He doesn't know your level because he hasn't heard your lectures, but I do. So I will make sure you get the pay you deserve. It will definitely be no worse than other tutors."

As she spoke, she took out her phone to call her father.

"..."

What are you getting so worked up about for no reason? Can't you let people finish what they're saying...?

Moreover, how come a daughter doesn't side with her father at all? Instead, she's eager to take money out of his pocket to give to me. Isn't that betraying her own family?

"Stop right there, let me finish what I have to say."

Hayakawa quickly reached out to stop May from making the call, otherwise he really would have made the call. Then he explained, "I just remembered that your father said he would pay me more than the market price, so it's fine."

"Oh…"

Nakano Satsuki put down her phone, blinked, and said, "That's more like it."

Hayakawa thought to himself, "I'm afraid my little darling is leaking air. I wonder how heartbroken Nakano's father will be if he hears what you're saying." He said helplessly, "I didn't do anything. It's really not that bad. Just give me the normal market price. Anyway, I only came here for tutoring so that you could go to school normally."

"How could that be? Hayakawa-kun has done so much. Although no one has said it to your face, everyone is very grateful to you privately."

May blushed and said, "Today's exam was the same. A lot of the content was what you talked about last night. It's the first time I've been able to understand so many questions on the exam. I feel like I understood almost half of them."

"Uh…"

So you couldn't even understand half of the questions on your previous exams? Your foundation is really weak. What exactly did you learn from that seemingly attentive performance in class? Were you just doing it for show?

"After finishing my math exam today, I don't even know how I felt walking out of the exam room, I was just so happy..."

May lowered her head and said, "That's why I found you today and brought you to my favorite restaurant nearby."

Hayakawa was stunned. So today, he hadn't just run into May by chance; May had deliberately sought him out to invite him to dinner.

"Because I wanted to thank you..."

May turned her head, her cheeks flushed: "So I wanted to treat you... It's the first time I've ever treated a guy to a meal."

"...

Hayakawa paused for a moment, then scratched his head with mixed feelings: "That won't be necessary. Didn't you prepare some hot milk for me last night? This is enough."

"That definitely won't work,"

May looked at Hayakawa and spoke earnestly, "A drop of water in need is repaid with a spring of water; how can a cup of milk possibly repay such a debt?"

"There are two more cups left, that'll be about enough."

Hayakawa pointed to the two empty glasses on the table. These two glasses of milk were paid for by May and were also brought over by her.

"Stop worrying about the milk, okay?"

May was furious and patted her chest to calm herself down: "The important thing is that a person should be grateful!"

"……All right."

"Yes, that's the right reaction. Accept it with a clear conscience; it's what you deserve."

May looked at Hayakawa's reaction with satisfaction, thought for a moment and said, "But it seems that Hayakawa-kun quite likes my calming milk, so I'll make it for you tonight too."

"Oh, that's good."

Hayakawa was a little happy. He had to admit that the May Treasure had some effect. He had a rare good night's sleep after drinking it last night. He didn't have any nightmares or have to get up at night. He even felt energetic the next day, which was really rare.

"Um…"

May rested her chin on her hand and looked at Hayakawa, saying, "When will you be willing to drink all my milk?"

The girl's eyebrows curved, her eyes shining with a soft light. Her gentle face was cradled in her hands as she quietly looked at the person in front of her. Outside the window, people came and went on the street. The indoor lights gently illuminated the two of them, making everything seem tranquil and beautiful.

However, Hayakawa was oblivious to the atmosphere, so as soon as May finished speaking, he immediately misunderstood.

When~

That means it can be done right now!

Hayakawa's pupils constricted sharply as he subconsciously looked at May's chest. The curves of her breasts, encased in a tight black sweater, were astonishing, full and alluring, far beyond what a high school girl should have.

Could it be that May actually means...?

Hayakawa's mind raced, and he almost entered a fantasy phase, but thankfully he snapped back to reality.

No, it just means normal milk.
