Chapter 118 Can'T Handle It
Asakawa Aki's eyes were on fire. Last night she and Akane drank out of anger, because with Li Xia, they didn't worry about getting drunk. Deep down, there are some crazy thoughts.
But her tangled character made it impossible for her to pass this test on her own, so she could only choose to get drunk and not think about what might happen.
When she woke up at night, she found that her underwear was still there. When she looked in the mirror, she saw that her face had been written with the word "straight" written on it. She knew it was Li Xia's prank, which made her feel ashamed and annoyed.
She also found that there was no other taste in her mouth except the smell of alcohol, and there was no soreness in her jaw. She instantly became even more angry.
"Auntie, I'm doing this for your own good." Li Xia looked at Asakawa Aki's angry face and knew that she was really angry this time. It was really impolite to write straight words on a woman's face.
"A sexy and beautiful woman like Ryou was out drinking. If I hadn't been there, I don't know what would have happened."
Asakawa Aki saw that he was speaking eloquently, and instantly she became angry again. She stepped hard on his shoes with high heels, turned around angrily, not wanting to talk to him, and went back to the laboratory building.
"Isn't it every month, not just these two days?" Li Xia rubbed his chin, watching Asakawa Aki angrily stomp away in high heels. He couldn't understand why his usually refined aunt was so angry today.
Anyway, Li Xia hurried into the classroom before class, squeezing into a seat in the back row. Kiyoura Mai had a notebook in her hand and when she saw him coming, she made room and pointed to the notebook.
"This was taken yesterday. I plan to film and edit at the same time, it's more efficient that way. What do you think?"
"So fast?" Li Xia glanced at Kiyoura Mai. Her golden hair was tied up in a simple ponytail, no makeup, and there were still eye boogers in the corners of her eyes. Obviously, she had rushed out of bed in the morning without any grooming.
It seems that this girl was editing all night after eating barbecue yesterday. She truly deserved the title of the top student at University of Tokyo. Even though she often drives, she's still a straight-A student.
"Do you always get so flirty with women early in the morning?" Kiyoura Mai, seeing Li Xia's gaze, felt a bit embarrassed about her current appearance and started to banter.
"You actually look pretty good if you don't talk," Li Xia replied, looking at the notebook, where a small video clip of the edited footage was playing.
The time wasn't long, just a minute, following the script, this part tells the mother-son relationship, and then he chooses to go far away for college after graduating from high school.
Videos like this, though they claim to be realistic, seem to make it easier for good-looking people to create a sense of identification. Asakawa Aki and Li Xia perfectly fit this requirement.
Thanks to the natural performances of the two, Asakawa Aki, in front of the camera, besides being mature and sexy, looks at Li Xia with more love, without too much of a taste of deteriorating affection.
Coupled with the obvious age difference between the two, there was no awkward situation, but it appeared quite beautiful, after all, who wouldn't like a young and sexy mother.
"Surprisingly good, worthy of being the editing king, the editing level is excellent," Li Xia didn't hesitate to praise Kiyoura Mai.
"Anyway, it's not really related to me," Kiyoura Mai shrugged, glancing at Li Xia. "But is Professor Asakawa fond of you?"
"Are you planning to say, even if the opponent is a professor, you won't lose?" Li Xia also glanced at her from the corner of his eye.
"It was just a dream last night," Kiyoura Mai said, her expression calm as she averted her gaze. "Maybe I was editing too late at night."
"A romance drama?" Li Xia asked casually.
"AV~" Kiyoura Mai yawned as she picked up her notebook. "It's the kind with catchy titles but no real plot."
As they chatted, Mizusawa Ryo walked in holding her lesson plan, wearing high heels. She exuded confidence, with a smile on her face and golden short hair cascading around her ears, adding a touch of elegance to her appearance.
Her presence instantly drew everyone's attention. This beautiful teacher, in just a few days, had already made the students forget who the previous teacher was, with her teaching skills, lively personality, and mature appearance.
"Teacher Ryo changed her hairstyle today," Kiyoura Mai propped her chin up. "Usually, girls only cut their hair short when something unexpected happens. Did the teacher get dumped?"
"That's just your romantic imagination," Li Xia knew that Mizusawa Ryo wasn't someone who would get dumped. She wasn't an ordinary woman. If her hair got a few scratches, she would just cut it all off.
And Mizusawa Ryo is such a straightforward woman, people might think of her as sexy and alluring, but she just see Li Xia as a brother.
Now, the class went by quickly, and Mizusawa Ryo explained some filming techniques in a simple and clear way, and also asked about the progress of the video shoot.
The class leader, the big-eyed beauty Katsura Manami, generously presented their group's work for everyone to watch.
The topic was quite artistic, telling the story of a craftsman making pottery, facing continuous failures and making continuous efforts.
It was obvious that there was someone in their group who really knew how to make pottery, and the whole filming process went smoothly. Although it wasn't finished, it gave a very good impression.
The more ordinary the subject matter, the harder it is to film without feeling awkward, which shows how deep their skills are.
After Katsura Manami finished playing the video, she turned to look at the back row where Kiyoura Mai and Li Xia were, then stopped the video.
As soon as the video finished playing, a round of applause immediately followed, showing that everyone really appreciated her filming.
"She's provoking us," Kiyoura Mai said with a smile, clapping and whispering with a voice that only Li Xia could hear, "That green tea witch is taunting us."
She finished speaking and saw Li Xia standing there in silence, with a defeated expression.
"Hey, what's with that expression? Although they did a good job, we're not bad either!" Kiyoura Mai looked puzzled and nudged Li Xia with her elbow.
"We lost, we underestimated them. I didn't expect them to bring out the weapon of craftsmanship." Li Xia looked disappointed. "They say the spirit of craftsmanship is ingrained in Tokyo's people. Even the smallest things, like making sausages, have to be done seven times until the water that comes out can be directly consumed. There was a foreign student who tried to take a shortcut and only did it five times. Someone tasted it and he was considered dishonest, even the landlord refused to rent a place to him."
"...?" Kiyoura Mai had a question mark above her head.
Ignoring Li Xia's rambling, the small video from Katsura Manami's group put a lot of pressure on Kiyoura Mai. After all, she was aiming for first place.
So right after class, she urged Akane and Asakawa Aki to finish filming the rest together.
Asakawa Aki was still angry with Li Xia, but it didn't affect the filming. They acted as opponents with Li Xia, but whenever their eyes met, she couldn't help but imagine the word "straight" on her face, which made her even more annoyed.
Li Xia watched in bewilderment as his aunt acted strangely today, as if she had eaten gunpowder.
Meanwhile, Komachi Kurenai truthfully conveyed her judgment to the captain, finding it difficult to determine who was better between the small videos taken by Li Xia and Katsura Manami.
As a result, Kirigiri Shimizu gave her a new command.
"Captain, are you unable to handle this?" Komachi Kurenai looked peculiar, but dared not argue.
