Megumi watched all of it coldly without saying anything. After all, she knew exactly what kind of person Ryunosuke was.
She puffed out her fragrant cheeks annoyed; she was clearly angry. Even though there was already her and Ai, Ryunosuke was still flirting...
Megumi sighed resignedly and didn't intend to interfere anymore; she couldn't control him. The main reason was because Ryunosuke had been straightforward with her, so she couldn't be excessively angry.
Ryunosuke was aware he couldn't lie to Megumi, so he told her everything honestly. He admitted that he liked Hiyori.
What could he do. With Megumi's terrifying ability that was almost like mind reading, Ryunosuke wasn't confident he could hide anything from her, so he chose honesty.
Megumi didn't blame him. Because Ryunosuke was already honest, if she threw a tantrum instead, she would look narrow-minded. She sighed deeply in her heart.
(Whatever, I don't want to care anymore.)
(Just tell Ai, let her cure Ryunosuke-kun's flirtatious disease.)
Megumi without further ado took out her phone and began complaining. The two had now become "sisters" sharing the same husband, so they became close friends who were open with each other.
At the same time, Megumi was also responsible for monitoring Ryunosuke's every move. If there was something suspicious (meaning a new love rival), she would immediately report to Ai.
Receiving a message from Megumi, Ai didn't explode in anger as imagined. She only replied calmly, "I understand," then turned off her phone.
It wasn't that Ai didn't want to be angry, but there was no use. Because Ryunosuke had already anticipated this would happen, he had already given a "vaccine" first by admitting his feelings for Hiyori to Ai.
Ryunosuke thought, since the two of them could be good friends, then adding one more person to become "three sisters" shouldn't be a big problem, right?
Especially because he really couldn't hide it anymore.
Not being honest meant death; being honest meant there was still a chance to live and an opportunity to have relationships with three people at once. So he chose the principle "confession will be lightened, resistance will be heavily punished," making Megumi and Ai unable to say anything.

On the other side.
As a student with grades equivalent to perfect scores in all subjects, Wang Mei-Yu patiently taught the quintuplets.
She had dark blue twin-tails hair, reddish-purple eyes, and a sweet and cute face like a neighbor's little sister. She was an exchange student from "a certain province" in China.
Currently, she was patiently teaching the quintuplets. Except for Itsuki, the other four sisters listened to Wang Mei-Yu's explanation with blank stares, as if listening to a spell they didn't understand at all.
Itsuki took out red-framed glasses from her bag, put them on, and began taking notes seriously. Although she also didn't understand, but taking notes first couldn't be wrong.
Her aspiration was to become a teacher, just like her mother. However, her grades were really bad. No matter how hard she tried, her test scores never exceeded 20 points at most. But she still didn't give up. She noted down all the problems she didn't understand in her notebook to study slowly later. The reddish ahoge hair on her head swayed back and forth, looking very adorable.
After finishing explaining, Wang Mei-Yu intended to give some problems to test them. However, surprisingly, even though she only gave the most basic problems, the quintuplets couldn't answer a single one.
She thought the problems were too difficult, so she lowered the standard to middle school level problems. The result was even more breathtaking: all five still couldn't answer.
Instantly, Wang Mei-Yu trembled, realizing how serious this problem was...
She raised her small hand hesitantly. "Um... what is 2017×215?"
The quintuplets immediately panicked, their hands moving wildly trying to calculate, but not a single one succeeded in solving it.
Wang Mei-Yu lowered her hand, as if already understanding everything. These five quintuplets might not even be able to solve elementary school problems.
◆━⊰✿✧✿⊱━◆
Meanwhile, after accompanying Hiyori for about two and a half hours, Ryunosuke intended to say goodbye. After all, chatting with someone from another class too long here felt inappropriate. He had to return soon.
Although Hiyori felt reluctant, she didn't stop him. Being accompanied for two and a half hours already made her very satisfied. For the rest of the time, she continued reading books alone, though there was a feeling of loneliness without that familiar figure beside her.
Ryunosuke walked back toward his classmates and asked about the situation. "How is it? Are there any whose grades are below the passing limit?"
"If there are, make a separate list for special tutoring. Don't let it ruin next month's exam scores because that will affect class points."
As class leader, Ryunosuke had to be responsible for them.
His friends glanced at each other and shook their heads, stating there was no problem for the next exam. However, Wang Mei-Yu raised her small hand with a difficult expression.
"Akasaka-kun, there are five people here who... seem like they won't pass..." She said it very delicately.
These five people weren't just not passing!
If they took the exam now, they would definitely be expelled!
Ryunosuke didn't overreact because he had already guessed their grades wouldn't be good. He told Wang Mei-Yu and Suzune to prepare middle school level problems for them to try—wanting to see if there was still hope...
The quintuplets then completed those problems in 20 minutes. Ryunosuke received their exam papers with a flat face and began checking them.
Nakano Ichika: 9 points.
Nakano Nino: 12 points.
Nakano Miku: 13 points.
Nakano Yotsuba: 8 points.
Nakano Itsuki: 15 points.
Total score: 57 points.
Ryunosuke laughed coldly, looking at the quintuplets with an unfriendly gaze, as if saying: (How did you get into Advanced Nurturing High School? Did you enter through the back door?)
He put down the exam papers and criticized mercilessly. "Can't even do middle school problems, are you joking with me? Want to toy with me?"
The quintuplets shrank their necks, not daring to make a sound.
Nino who couldn't accept it finally stood up, stomped her foot on the table, clearly showing her beautiful thighs wrapped in white stockings. She flipped her pink hair and snorted annoyed.
"What right do you have to lecture us? Bad grades so what? Does it bother you?"
Ryunosuke looked at Nino flatly without giving face at all. "You indeed don't bother me, but you bother all our classmates."
"Next month's exam concerns the entire class's interests. If you show grades like this, you definitely won't pass."
Ryunosuke waved the exam paper in his hand, especially Nino's which was placed on top so everyone could see—deliberately wanting to teach her a lesson for daring to oppose the class leader.
Nino's face turned bright red. She grabbed the paper, tore it into countless shreds in front of everyone, then threw it into the air like flower petals. She put her hands on her hips, challenging what Ryunosuke could do to her.
Ryunosuke propped his chin with his hand and said in a casual tone. "Don't forget to clean up those shreds on the floor, you're the one who tore it."
Instantly Nino hung her head dejectedly.
"Yes..." She answered unable to argue anymore because it was indeed her own doing.
