Chapter 187 Do you like me?
"Speaking of which, are you the only one in this room?"
Noticing that there were also some documents and daily necessities placed on the table opposite, Kiritani Tetsu couldn't help but ask.
"of course not."
The girl glanced up and answered.
"So that table is actually occupied."
In response, Hoshino Aihime nodded slightly, paused for a while and then continued.
"I asked her to go out and do other things. She won't be able to come back for a while."
"If there are too many people here, I'm afraid you will get nervous."
"I'm not that socially anxious."
Regarding Hoshino Aihime's explanation, Kiritani Tetsuya retorted with a slightly strange expression.
"If you asked her to leave for this reason, then I think you can definitely call her back now."
After thinking for a while, Kiritani Tetsuya then suggested.
From the bottom of my heart, Kiritani Tetsuya would feel better if more people could come here.
At least in front of other people, Hoshino Aihime will restrain some of her prejudice and bad taste towards herself, and she will become relatively relaxed here.
Nervous? There is no such thing at all. It would be better to say that I only feel a little nervous when I am alone with this divine girl.
"What, you like her?"
Hearing Kiritani Tetsuya repeatedly mention his work partner, Hoshino Aiki finally raised his head from the documents on the desk, raised his beautiful eyebrows and asked.
"Falling in love with someone whose name and appearance you don't even know?"
Kiritani Tetsuya didn't answer the question.
"Even if you say it's you that I like, it's more reliable than what you just said."
"So you like me?"
This time, the color in Hoshino Aihime's eyes seemed to be more intense, and a small hint of interest appeared on her delicate face.
"I just want to express how ridiculous what you just said is, that's all."
Kiritani Tetsuya shrugged and said, but his heart did not fluctuate much because of the other party's words.
"Really, but I don't think it's impossible."
Hoshino Aiji dragged her pink chin with one hand and responded with a pretty face pretending to be thinking.
"From an objective point of view, I am born with a beautiful face. Not only do I have strong learning ability, but my athletic ability is also good. I can also cook well outside school. I am considered a near-perfect model among girls.
"
The girl described it word by word in an orderly manner, her face still looking extremely calm as she spoke, as if she was describing an objective fact.
Of course, we can’t blame Hoshino Aihime for feeling this way.
Faced with the girl's boast, even Kiritani Tetsu didn't feel even the slightest sense of disobedience or shame in it. Instead, he felt that the girl's words were relatively conservative.
Especially after taking a look at the scenery under the table and on the table, his view became more obvious.
"more importantly......"
Having said this, the girl slowly put down her little hand holding her chin, and the corners of her crystal mouth slightly raised in a playful and graceful arc.
"You were always staring at my legs from time to time, which makes it hard for me not to believe that you are not interested in me."
"cough."
As soon as he heard Hoshino Aihime's words, Kiritani Tetsuya subconsciously looked away from the girl, and for a moment he felt embarrassed that he had been caught doing bad things.
But in retrospect, he only glanced at it for two or three seconds.
Kiritani Tetsuya really didn't expect that Hoshino Aihime would notice this.
Could it be that the girl's extremely focused look just now was just an act?
With embarrassment and confusion, Kiritani Tetsuya tried to steal a glance at Hoshino Aihime's expression at the moment.
After asking him until he was speechless, the girl seemed to be in a good mood at the moment. The pair of calves that could make everyone fall in were swaying, without any intention of pursuing him. This made Kiritani Tetsuya feel somewhat relaxed.
Some.
"It seems that what I said is indeed correct."
Even this inadvertent peek was noticed by Hoshino Aihime, and the girl pursued her victory with a slightly proud tone.
At this moment Kiritani Tetsuya couldn't find any reason to refute.
"Then do you want to come here and touch it?"
Sitting on the sofa, Kiritani Tetsuya breathed a sigh of relief and was almost speechless, so he had no choice but to speak.
"Huh?" Hoshino Aiji couldn't help but frown.
"If I really like you, maybe my heartbeat will speed up involuntarily when I'm alone in a room with you."
Kiritani Tetsuya pointed to the area near his chest and said.
"This is what I heard from a friend I just met recently."
"friend?"
Seeing the other party's words and actions, Hoshino Aiji was confused.
But soon the girl suddenly realized something. She suddenly recalled the scene of having dinner with her on the rooftop last week, and the love words she said to Tetsuya Kiritani at that time all came to mind.
In an instant, a different kind of shame and awkwardness immediately surged into the girl's heart, and even the pride on her face faded a bit because of this.
“Boring point of view.”
Hoshino Aiji curled her lips and said, her original intention of teasing her was immediately reduced by half.
After this, the girl was not interested in continuing to ask Tetsuya Kiritani about whether he liked her.
With a renewed mood, Hoshino Aihime glanced at Kiritani Tetsuya with one last meaningful look, and then re-engaged in the work in front of her.
Seeing the other party's reaction, Kiritani Tetsuya suddenly felt like he had the upper hand.
Although casually teasing Hoshino Aihime was not a safe move in his opinion, he still felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction when he actually saw the other person's frustrated side revealed due to his words.
With this secretly satisfying feeling, Kiritani Tetsuya withdrew his eyes and concentrated on completing the only two or three remaining questions.
...
With an unobstructed train of thought, Kiritani Tetsuya once again finished the test paper given to him by Hoshino Aihime within an hour.
Bring the completed test paper to the girl as soon as possible.
After a general inspection, Hoshino Aihime looked at Kiritani Tetsuya with a scrutinizing gaze and asked.
"Did you take tutoring secretly?"
"There is no need for me to attend another tutoring session just to avoid the one in front of me."
