Hayakawa's face immediately turned as black as charcoal and as hard as a brick. He immediately pointed out three things he disliked.
Beautiful girls are basically vixens; they exude an allure that tempts men to depravity, and I must stay away from them. As for those with good grades, it goes without saying that Hayakawa hates people who are better than him academically.
This kind of person is also good at video games... He deserves to go to hell.
"Honestly, why do you guys always think about romance in everything?"
Hayakawa remarked with a hint of exasperation, "What Doma was trying to say just now was 'dating,' wasn't it? I'm speechless. They're all like that."
Xiao Meilang Aicheng's expression changed: "So you knew!"
"Otherwise what?"
Hayakawa rolled his eyes: "Otherwise, what did you think I was going to say I'd have to hand over?"
"pay…"
Xiao Mei blushed and said, "Of course it's dating, that's what I mean."
"hehe."
Hayakawa looked at the purple-haired girl and sneered, too lazy to speak. His sharp eyes had long seen through the fact that Mimi Aizawa was lewd by nature, but as the Great Emperor, he didn't care about such a small matter. So he said, "You always see what happens between a man and a woman. No matter what it is, you always think of it as gossip, as if there is nothing between men and women except love."
"Then...what else?"
Xiao Meilang Aicheng said weakly, "Isn't this all that can happen between boys and girls in high school? It's all about liking each other."
"But actually, this is a mistake,"
Hayakawa spoke eloquently and calmly: "In the end, what is liking someone? From a scientific point of view, it's just that the brain produces hormones. When you see someone of the opposite sex who is attractive enough to your body, your brain produces dopamine and adrenaline increases. Under the influence of these two hormones, your attention will unconsciously focus on the other person, and you will derive pleasure from the details of the interaction and the growing closeness of the relationship. The increase in dopamine will reduce your need for food and sleep, which is what is called losing your appetite, while adrenaline will make your heart beat faster, your palms sweat, and you will be more prone to nervousness... The essence of all this is just that the brain wants you to mate and pass on your DNA, so it produces hormones to make you go up and have sex with that person of the opposite sex... that's all."
"Ah...this...this..."
Xiao Meilang Aicheng was stunned, her mouth slightly agape: "I...you say that too?"
In fact, as a medical student, she was aware of these things, but seeing them firsthand and having someone her own age bluntly say them were completely different experiences.
"Hmph, in the end, the chemicals in the emotion of 'liking' don't actually bring me any benefits. On the contrary, they might induce me to do a lot of irrational or even crazy things, so of course I'll refuse."
Hayakawa coldly replied, "And can you accept being controlled by some inexplicable hormones? I don't know about others, but I will never allow myself to be controlled by some chemical substances. It's fine if it's for studying, but absolutely not for anything else."
Xiao Meilang Aicheng: "..."
After a long silence, she opened her eyes wide and entered the living room. Then, as if nothing had happened, she picked up a pen and notebook and said blankly, "In short, let's study first."
Hayakawa: "Oh."
Silent all night.
Chapter 159 Let's Go Buy a Smartphone
As the new day dawned, sunlight streamed into the living room through the window, falling on Hayakawa's face and causing him to furrow his brow slightly.
Hayakawa opened his eyes and found himself lying on the sofa in the living room, with something pressing down on him. Looking down, he realized it was the petite body of Mimi Aizawa.
Her adorable sleeping face was resting peacefully against his chest. The curves of her body were incredibly alluring. Her face was round and even, with a sharp, delicate shape. Her long eyelashes were like those of a porcelain doll, exuding a princess-like noble air. In the middle was a straight, delicate nose. Her purple hair, instead of being braided as usual, hung down to her shoulders. Hayakawa then realized that Misaki's hair was actually quite long, not the cool short haircut, but waist-length hair.
"..."
Hayakawa scratched his head expressionlessly. Lately, Xiaomei Lang seemed to be getting lazier and lazier. She would often finish studying late at night and then stay overnight instead of going home. Hayakawa never cared about this. He would just go to sleep after studying. He didn't care whether Xiaomei Lang went home or not.
But they didn't sleep directly on me.
Hayakawa frowned slightly, only then remembering that she hadn't been feeling well yesterday and didn't remember what time it was when she studied. She probably fell asleep by then, and Minami Aizami probably fell asleep after studying for a while as well.
Everyone is working very hard, whether it's yourself or the senior students who are repeating a year.
Hayakawa felt a surge of emotion; the slight dissatisfaction he had felt moments before vanished instantly.
In this world, he only has two people he can barely consider as companions: one is Azumi Minami, who poses no threat to him and with whom he studies, and the other is Ichika Nakano, who seems to be a fellow Go player. He can improve together with the former and share some experience in controlling the pieces with the latter.
"Well…"
Seemingly sensing her movement, Ayame Kominami slightly turned over, lying on her side. A faint blush rose to her cheeks, like the color of flower petals, and her pink lips were slightly pouting, as if she were letting out a joyful cheer. Her delicate, petite body exuded a sweet fragrance, constantly wafting into Hayakawa's nose. Her slightly disheveled clothes were wrinkled, revealing her snow-white, milky-white shoulders. From Hayakawa's superior vantage point, looking down along the collar, one could see even more...
Hayakawa: "..."
Get up right now.
If you don't get up...
Hayakawa's face stiffened, and a math problem instantly popped into his mind.
Do you know the principle of leverage? As long as the lever arm is long enough, you can lift anything, no matter how heavy it is. That's why there's the famous saying, "Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world."
And now a lever arm is getting longer and longer, if Minami Aizami doesn't get up soon... Hayakawa is going to kick her away.
"Well…"
Hayakawa frowned, took out his hands and carefully lifted Mimi Aizawa off his body, placing her aside.
Although he can control his physical desires in many ways with his strong will, there are some physiological reactions that he really can't control.
I guess I really need to go to a temple to practice meditation. Letting the waterfall wash over me every morning should fix it.
Hayakawa stood up, stretched slightly in the morning sunlight, took a deep breath, and then smiled faintly.
It's another hopeful day.
……
Wash up, change clothes, tidy up the house, a new day, a new beginning.
"Ahhh, junior!"
Hayakawa was making breakfast in the kitchen, her hair still messy from sleeping. She ran out of the living room with Minami Aizawa, who looked like a little purple-haired lion, yelling and screaming, "I accidentally fell asleep on the sofa yesterday!"
It's so noisy so early in the morning.
Hayakawa rolled his eyes, continuing to flip the frying pan in his hands, and said nonchalantly, "Yeah, and then what?"
“Last night…I remember you fell asleep first, didn’t you?”
Komi Aizawa blushed, lowered her head, and unconsciously crossed her hands together, whispering, "Could it be that the two of us..."
"Last night, oh, speaking of last night,"
Hayakawa felt a chill run down his spine, but remained calm and said, "I slept for a while last night and then my back started to hurt, so I got up and went back to my room to sleep. You had fallen to the floor by then, and I was the one who picked you up and put you on the sofa."
"Liar!"
Xiao Mei Nami Aizumi was incredulous and puffed up her cheeks in anger. She pointed at Hayakawa and shouted, "I sleep the most peacefully, how could I possibly roll onto the floor?"
Really?
Hayakawa, with his back to Misaki, said calmly, "Would I lie to you?"
"Well…"
Komi Aizami pursed her lips slightly, half believing and half doubting as she left the kitchen. Instead of going back to the living room, she turned around and went straight into Hayakawa's room, immediately lying down on Hayakawa's bed and sniffing around, especially the scent on Hayakawa's pillow.
"Something's definitely not right,"
Xiao Mei narrowed her eyes slightly. Perhaps it was a girl's sixth sense, or perhaps it was a case of suspecting something amiss, but she felt that the smell on Hayakawa's bed was rather faint, unlike what one would expect after sleeping there all night.
So he really did sleep on the sofa last night?! And with me…
Xiao Meilang Aicheng's face flushed as she thought about this, and she silently left the room to go back to the living room to wash up.
I should mind my own business. Even if I find evidence to prove it, it won't do me any good.
……
Hayakawa made simple egg white porridge and pickled wood ear mushrooms this morning. He even added plums to the porridge, making it simple yet appetizing. This is something he learned from Nino.
Learning and then evolving—that's Hayakawa.
"Speaking of which, juniors,"
As Ayame Komi was taking a big gulp of tea, she suddenly wiped her mouth and said to Hayakawa, "I'm thinking of getting a new phone."
"Oh, you're still using that old phone?"
Upon hearing this, Hayakawa put down his chopsticks and listened attentively to what Mimi Aizawa was saying.
"Yes, there's not enough memory. It's extremely laggy now and unusable."
Aimi Nami nodded: "So even though I'm a little reluctant, I still have to buy a new phone."
"Isn't this nice?"
Hayakawa nodded: "Then let's change it. Do you plan to buy it online or go to a mobile phone store?"
"Of course we'll go to the phone store!"
Without hesitation, Ayame Komi replied, "How can I feel at ease if I don't touch the phone myself?"
"Even if you touched it, you wouldn't understand."
Hayakawa said helplessly, "You don't understand the ins and outs of smartphones, such as the CPU, screen, camera, and operating system. How can you tell them apart?"
"You talk as if you know a lot about this stuff."
Komi Nami Aizumi said irritably.
"I'm still okay,"
Hayakawa calmly said, "My family told me before that the new era of smartphones is still in the blue ocean stage, but in two years, all kinds of new phones will start to explode, and international market regulation will gradually be relaxed. So if we can persist in doing this during this period and seize the opportunity, we will be able to get a share of the electronics market in the future."
"...This seems like important information that would be very useful to some older men, but is completely useless to me."
Xiao Meilang Aicheng said expressionlessly, "Do you usually talk about this kind of thing at home?"
Chapter 160 Family Throne
"Not really. I rarely talk to my family, and I generally don't pay much attention to the topics they discuss."
Hayakawa explained, "I overheard that by accident."
"Is that so?"
Xiao Meilang Aicheng was slightly taken aback and asked in confusion, "You rarely talk to your family? Why? Is it because you don't get along?"
"Not at all."
Hayakawa said expressionlessly, "I just find what they're saying boring, and I don't have anything in common with them, that's all."
Xiao Meilang Aicheng: "..."
"Speaking of it,"
Komi Nami Aizumi squinted and said, "I've never seen you call home, junior. Normally, it's reasonable for a student who goes to school in another city to call home every day off to let them know they're safe."
"for…"
Hayakawa's expression was somewhat unpleasant: "Why...why do I have to call home?"
Xiao Meilang's expression froze: "Uh... isn't this common sense?"
"Sorry, I don't follow that logic,"
Hayakawa sneered: "Usually, my parents call me every day off to say hello and such."
Xiao Meilang Aicheng: "..."
What family imperial throne?
Komi Nami Aizumi sighed and said, "Junior, are you an only child?"
"Is there even a question?!"
Hayakawa frowned and said loudly, "I am the eldest son, and I am the only one."
"I said yes,"
Xiao Meilang shook her head and spread her hands, saying, "Many families are too good to their only child, to the point of spoiling them."
Why don't I think so?
Hayakawa glanced at Mimi Nami, looked her up and down, and said in a strange tone, "Senpai, I remember you're also an only child, right?"
"So what if it is...?"
