Fumino Furuhashi glanced at Hayakawa, who looked energetic and refreshed beside him, then silently gathered his thoughts and looked at the last big question on the test paper.

"Given that the three sides of △ABC are all rational numbers, prove that cosA is a rational number; prove that for any positive integer n, cos-nA is a rational number."

Fumino Furuhashi: “…”

She didn't know who was right and who was wrong, but now she saw that this question really didn't make sense.

In an instant, the string that had been taut in my heart broke.

"Ah ah ah ah ah…"

Fumino Furuhashi covered his head and lay on the table with a painful look on his face, letting out a slight cry from his mouth, like a pitiful cat.

"Uh…"

Ogata Rizu and Komirami Asumi were both frightened by Furuno Furuno's sudden madness, and looked at her with strange expressions.

Hayakawa was also awakened. He raised his head and looked around blankly and asked, "Whose groundhog is this?"

Hayakawa's expression revealed confusion and dissatisfaction as if he had just woken up from a dream. He was a bit nervous because he stayed up late every day to study and over-motivated himself. Now that he was suddenly pulled out of his study state, he couldn't help but reveal a look of dissatisfaction.

Fumino Furuhashi saw the dissatisfaction on Hayakawa's face, and instantly felt aggrieved. Her nose felt sore and her eyes turned red uncontrollably. She stood up silently and walked straight towards the balcony.

"Hello? Gu Qiao."

Hayakawa looked at Furuno Furuma in confusion, without even turning his head, and his outstretched hand stopped in mid-air.

"What's up with her?"

Hayakawa touched his head and looked at Ogata Rizu.

"I do not know either."

Ogata Rizu shook her head and looked towards the balcony with some worry, as if she wanted to go over but didn't dare to.

"Younger generation..."

When Komi-kun Aisumi saw Furuhashi's reaction, she immediately reacted. She withdrew her gaze from the balcony with some distress. After hearing what Hayakawa said, she glanced at Hayakawa with some rebuke, pouted slightly and said, "You should go over and take a look. Furuhashi must be too tired from studying. She's not in a good mood. Just comfort her."

"this…"

Hayakawa was helpless, but still stood up and walked towards the balcony.

……

Hayakawa pushed the door open and entered the balcony, feeling somewhat mixed emotions.

He couldn't quite understand why Gu Qiao was like this, and he couldn't understand why Komi-kun Aisumi asked him to come and comfort Gu Qiao.

Do you need others to comfort you when you are tired of studying? I have worked much harder than Gu Qiao, but even so, I still can't pass the liberal arts exam, which she never worked hard on. If I were to be heartbroken and collapse, I should be the one, but Hayakawa has never longed for others' comfort.

Every time he failed, he just felt that he didn't work hard enough.

"..."

Hayakawa walked into the balcony and saw Furuno Fumino sitting in the corner of the balcony with her legs hugged, her head in her hands and her body trembling slightly.

The moment he saw her, the depression in Hayakawa's heart instantly disappeared. He walked forward and whispered, "Guqiao..."

Fumino Furuhashi poked her head out from her arms, a few tears hanging on her beautiful fair face, her slightly red eyes full of pity. When she saw Hayakawa, she showed a trace of panic on her face, and hurriedly whispered: "Don't come over..."

"Uh…"

Hayakawa stopped and asked: "Why?"

"Because you're going to blame me again."

Furuhashi Fumino pursed her lips, and seeing the familiar gloom on Hayakawa's face, she quickly explained: "I know I was wrong... but I just want to sit here and rest for a while, and then I will go back to study. Don't blame me..."

As she spoke, Fumino Furuhashi lowered her head slightly, showing an appearance of weakness and submissiveness.

"Ugh…"

Hayakawa sighed helplessly and walked over to Fumino Furuhashi and sat down: "I won't blame you."

Fumino Furuhashi looked at Hayakawa who was sitting very close to her, and her heart suddenly began beating violently. She closed her eyes and leaned her head on Hayakawa's shoulder without caring about anything.

Hayakawa: “…”

Do you want to escape too?

Hayakawa had a blank expression on his face, but his body did not move, allowing Guqiao to lean on him.

I'm only giving you a shoulder to lean on because you're sad now. If it were any other time, you would have flown off the balcony.

Hayakawa thought silently in his heart: That's all, if you push me further, I'll let you go.

"Hayakawa...I'm so tired,"

Furuhashi Fumino felt Hayakawa's aura lingering around her and said quietly, "I've tried my best, but my grades are still improving so slowly. My brain is going to break."

My grades haven't improved in half a year, and my ranking has even dropped.

Hayakawa's face was as gloomy as water, and his indignation was evident without words.

“You’re not trying hard enough.”

Hayakawa thought about it and said it was as it should be.

"I know I haven't worked hard enough in your eyes,"

Fumino Guqiao lowered her head in disappointment, and began to feel wronged again. With red eyes, she said, "I can't study like you. As long as I read for more than an hour, I can't concentrate. I can't stay up late every night to do the test papers. After doing one or two sets, I can't help but say to myself, "Ah, you have worked hard enough, go to rest quickly!" Then my hands will become more and more sore, and my head will become more and more heavy. Slowly, I can't help but take a rest. It's like this every time. I can't hold on at all."

Hayakawa: “Ancient bridge…”

"Tell me, Hayakawa,"

Furuhashi Fumino's head separated from Hayakawa's shoulders, and she turned around to look at Hayakawa with confused eyes, muttering, "How can I work as hard as you?"

Zaochuan was silent for a long time, then said, "Okay."

"Ah."

Furuno Fumino looked at Hayakawa seriously.

“Whenever you think you’ve worked hard enough, tell yourself…”

"No!"

Hayakawa said: "Then go study again."

Gu Qiao curled his lips when he heard this: "What's the use of this?"

"Very useful,"

Hayakawa looked at Guqiao and said seriously: "I do this every time."

"Whenever I feel extremely tired, my head feels heavy and I want to rest..."

“Whenever I think to myself, ‘I’ve tried my best’…”

“I would immediately say to myself…”

"No, you're wrong. I'm not trying hard enough."

Hayakawa looked at the moon hanging in the sky and said calmly, "Then cheer up and do another set of test papers."

Chapter 116: In the Future

Fumino Furuhashi was stunned. She looked at Hayakawa who was looking up in the moonlight pouring down like water. His profile was cold and lonely, and his expression was indifferent, like a stone pagoda standing alone in the cold snow, and his silence was filled with a Zen-like coldness.

At this moment, Fumino Furuhashi finally realized the fact that he had been ignoring.

In her eyes, Hayakawa was always so amazing. He studied almost obsessively and never slacked off. He never said he was tired, and she had never seen him lying lazily on the table like herself. He seemed like a tireless machine. Every time she saw him, he was either studying or on his way to study.

He seemed so at ease, but if he was so at ease, why did he work so hard?

Fumino Furuhashi recalled when she first met Hayakawa, she noticed the tiredness hidden between his brows and felt the confused yet persistent laziness in his heart. It was as if he didn't know whether his efforts would bear fruit, but he still maintained the feeling of working hard. She could clearly feel these emotions and felt concerned and distressed because of them.

However, after getting to know Hayakawa, I gradually turned a blind eye to all of this, because I had seen too much of Hayakawa's efforts, and I felt that all of this was as it should be. I also ignored Hayakawa's hard work. After all, he loves studying and reading so much, and for him, no matter how many sets of papers he writes or how long he studies, it is normal.

He should always be high-spirited, persevering, with his eyes filled with burning hope.

However, what Hayakawa said just now woke Gu Qiao up. She instantly realized a fact: in fact, Hayakawa is just like ordinary people, just like herself. He will feel tired and sleepy. His brain will feel dizzy if he does too many questions. He will feel lost and confused if his grades don't improve. He will also lie on the table to rest, but she just didn't realize it.

"Hayakawa..."

Fumino Furuhashi stretched out her hand toward Hayakawa, as if she wanted to touch his face through the cold moonlight.

"Ok?"

Hayakawa turned his head to look at her. His handsome and fair profile reflected the huge moon in the sky. The cold light of the night was obscured by the hazy and dazed colors in his eyes, coupled with a hint of weariness in his lonely expression, as if he was an elk exploring the unknown depths of the jungle.

"..."

Fumino Furuhashi's eyes suddenly widened, and her snow-white face suddenly turned blood red. For a moment, she felt that she was under great temptation. This temptation was different from the so-called sexiness or lust that made people's blood boil. It was a throbbing that made the soul tremble.

She turned around and covered her heart as if nothing had happened. The beating frequency of that heart was now alarming. Gu Qiao even felt that she should go to the hospital.

"Hayakawa..."

Gu Qiao was worried that the balcony was too quiet, and his heartbeat was too loud for Hayakawa to notice, so he asked in a cover-up: "Why are you studying so hard?"

Fumino Furuhashi blinked and observed Hayakawa's expression. This was also the question she wanted to ask in her heart.

"Eh?"

Hayakawa was stunned: "Just ordinary efforts."

"That's not what I meant."

Furuno Fumino was a little helpless. She moved closer to Hayakawa and looked at him without blinking. "The reason why I study science hard is because I like stars and want to study astronomy in the future. Li-chan changed to liberal arts because she wanted to understand people's hearts and wanted to study psychology. But what about you, Hayakawa?"

"I never heard you say whether you would study liberal arts or science, nor did I hear you say which university you were interested in."

Furuhashi Fumino looked at Hayakawa seriously and said, "With your grades, if they don't drop in the next two years, you should have a good chance of getting into any university other than the University of Tokyo. You should work harder every day."

"To be honest, if I had your current science scores, I would definitely relax. It has far exceeded my set goals, but you always feel it is not enough."

Fumino Furuhashi said frankly: "So I want to know why you work so hard?"

"..."

Hayakawa looked at Guqiao expressionlessly, thinking, is it black humor or a deliberate provocation that you asked this question? Isn't it because of you and Ogata, two chess pieces that jumped out of the ordinary, that I'm working so hard?

If you two hadn't insulted me time and again, I would have been the king of Ichinose Academy long ago. Why would I have to work so hard?

"Ugh…"

Hayakawa looked up and sighed, once again hating his decision to go to this school. There were so many high schools in this city, why did he choose this one so blindly? As a result, he was humiliated again and again.

Oh, fate, you are so unfair!

"why are you not speaking?"

Seeing that Hayakawa didn't say anything, Fumino Furuhashi couldn't help but puff up her cheeks. Her fingers slowly fell on Hayakawa's waist, her eyes dangerous.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Hayakawa is not the kind of slow-witted male protagonist who would sit there and wait for death to be manipulated by others. Feeling the threat at his waist, he immediately looked at Gu Qiao with an expressionless face, squinting his eyes and looking gloomy.

"Humph…"

Gu Qiao withdrew his hand angrily, and looked at Hayakawa with pitiful eyes, wanting an answer.

Hayakawa said nothing, holding the railing with both hands and pretending not to see it, but Furuno Fumino stared at him relentlessly.

"Ugh…"

Time passed by minute by minute for a long time. Hayakawa sighed slightly and was silent for a while before he said softly: "Maybe... it's because he is unwilling to give up."

"Ok?"

Fumino Furuhashi was stunned and was about to say something when she saw Hayakawa reaching out to grab her arm.

"gone back."

Hayakawa.

Furuno Fumino was grabbed by Hayakawa's arm, and her body softened immediately when she felt the warmth in the boy's hand. She forgot what she wanted to ask in an instant, and followed him back to the house with her head down and her face flushed.

It’s better to study first... Leave everything for later after learning, and for the future.
