Chapter 22 - Do you want to join my club?

"Well, since you don't care about that, neither do I. Just the fact that I'm an exchange student attracts a lot of attention." Wu Shen shrugged his shoulders.

"By the way, you are an exchange student." Yukinoshita Yukino nodded, looking deeply moved.

Remembering that, from the information Utaha told Wu Shen, Yukino spent high school studying abroad.

"What kind of place is China?" Xueno asked suddenly and coldly.

"Oh?" Wu Shen was stunned for a moment.

Why did the topic suddenly change to my home country? And why does Yukino seem to be very interested!? Wu Shen was a little confused.

"I'm sorry, it's nothing, I was a little rude. I was just a little curious because there is a slight possibility that I will go there in the future, so I want to know about it in advance." The feeling that Yukinoshita Yukino gave to Wu Shen was that of a cold person with few friends. He has a sharp tongue and a cold temper. But without knowing why, when she talks to Wu Shen, she always seems to be respectful and meticulous in some way.

How to describe this feeling? It's like two parts of a broken stone that don't fit together. To be honest, even if Yukino used her poisonous tongue to mercilessly injure Wu Shen, it would be much more comfortable and pleasant than this strange atmosphere now.

"I see, do you want to study in China when you go to university? This is actually very rare."

Yukinoshita Yukino's serious attitude caused Wu Shen to have to respond a little stiffly.

"It's just a small possibility, very, very, very small…" Yukino emphasized the word "very small" in her tone as she spoke.

"Well, it's a very small possibility, I understand." Wu Shen could only nod in agreement. But he became more and more confused in his heart. Yukino continued to be vague and evasive, as if he was trying his best to hide something.

Why the hell did she come looking for him despite the rumors spread?

"Actually, I have been watching you for a long time." Yukino seemed to realize that if she continued not to say why, she might be misunderstood, so she began to explain her reasons.

"Were you stalking me?" Wu Shen asked in confusion.

"Wu Shen, are you that bad at Japanese? Please use your brain more when answering." Yukino sighed softly, looking like she was looking at an idiot.

"Yukinoshita-san, I actually think that if you use 'Your Japanese was taught by your elementary school gym teacher', it will be even more ridiculous, and it will even be a little funny." Wu Shen taught seriously.

"Sure enough, you are exactly as Amane-chan said. Although you generally appear ordinary, you occasionally become particularly deviant." Yukinoshita Yukino raised her head and looked at Wu Shen speechlessly as she rubbed her forehead.

"Who is Amane-chan?" Wu Shen felt that he had understood a key point of this entire situation.

"Don't worry, she's just a friend." However, Yukino was still being evasive, "Actually, what I wanted to say is that I've opened a club now and I'm short on members, so I wanted to know if you would join it?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Shen finally understood, it turned out that Yukino came to see me twice to recruit me into the club she created. No wonder he said something like "barely passed the test" before leaving last time, which probably refers to the members' evaluation, right?

"But I'm already in the domestic department and I still have to work part-time." Wu Shen scratched his head.

If it had been earlier, Wu Shen might have agreed because he was bored. But now that he has to work and still take care of Mai when he comes home, he really doesn't want to join any clubs.

Classes end around three o'clock and club activities take place for an hour or two after he has to go to work. After returning home, Wu Shen has to take care of little Mai. Wu Shen will feel very tired after being busy all the time during the day.

"Really? Then forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything before." Hearing Wu Shen's response, Yukino didn't hold back much, her expression was neither sad nor happy, she bowed slightly, turned and left from the classroom door.

Wu Shen knew that based on his superficial understanding, Yukinoshita Yukino must be a proud girl. It's already difficult for her to take the initiative to invite other people, it's almost impossible for her to ask for anything else.

"Wu Shen-kun, are you gay? Who would refuse an invitation from such a cute girl?" Utaha's voice suddenly came through the classroom door. Although he couldn't see Utaha's expression, he felt that there was a hint of teasing in her voice.

"I'm so funny to you, just because I turned down a girl's invitation?" Wu Shen complained as he leaned against the wall.

"Just thinking that Wu Shen-kun will be alone for the rest of his life makes me extremely excited."

"Kasumigaoka-san, you are really evil." Wu Shen shook his head, he stood at the door to avoid being attacked by his classmates, until the bell rang, Wu Shen Then he walked to the back door and entered the class.

Although curious glances were turned towards Wu Shen's chair from time to time, because Hiratsuka Shizuka from the Japanese class had already entered the classroom, the students in the class didn't dare to move around much during class time, so the commotion decreased quickly.

Japanese language classes had always been Wu Shen's weakest subject. He already had difficulty reading novels, not to mention textbooks, which was completely different from the ease of math classes.

Wu Shen felt a small headache just ten minutes into class. While rubbing his temples with his hands, he also temporarily shifted his attention from the teaching content to observing the classroom to alleviate the discomfort.

Although he was observing the entire class, Wu Shen's eyes were subconsciously directed towards Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was located at the diagonal door.

Wu Shen himself could not explain why he made such a choice. If before he was distracted in class, he would usually choose to look out the window and admire the scenery.

At this moment, Utaha didn't take a nap in class as usual, but instead wrote something crazily with a pen and notebook. This familiar impulse reminded Wu Shen of yesterday's scene in the coffee shop when Utaha was suddenly inspired to write words without stopping.

"Could it be that Kasumigaoka had an inspiration during class and couldn't control it, so she was writing furiously?" Wu Shen dragged his cheeks and thought with some embarrassment.

He dared to interrupt his writing in Professor Shizuka Hiratsuka's class. This was worthy of Kasumigaoka Utaha.

"Kasumigaoka-san, please answer this question." But at this moment, Professor Hiratsuka directly asked Utaha to answer the question.

But Wu Shen, who had already experienced this once, knew the state of Utaha at the moment. If he didn't make a loud noise or directly use physical means to forcefully interrupt, Utaha probably wouldn't be able to hear what was going on around him for a while.

"Classmate Kasumigaoka?"

After receiving no response for a long time, Mr. Hiratsuka turned his gaze to Utaha, who was still writing furiously in surprise. At the same time, Wu Shen's heart was in his throat.
