Life therapy—Haruto had been developing it from a young age.
The first time he used it was on Sora's body. However, it was still in the early stages of development at that time, and he could only achieve the desired effect through massage.
Now, with just a touch of his finger, he can achieve remarkable results.
This was the second time he used it on Shouko.
Even though Haruto knew that using this ability would make the patient feel incredibly comfortable.
It was like a weak person slowly feeling their body becoming strong and energized; like someone dying of thirst in the desert suddenly drinking a cold and delicious beverage.
Overall, it would be incredibly soothing.
But wasn't Shouko's reaction a bit too intense?
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became strange.
Nowadays, with social media being so widespread, people of this age understand almost everything.
Yuigahama blushed and turned her head away. Really, Haruto had just taken Shouko's hand, so why did she react so strongly!
This is too embarrassing.
Could it be that Shouko really liked Haruto, and as soon as he touched her, she got so excited that she couldn't control herself?
Is she a flirt?
Yuigahama quickly restrained her thoughts, feeling a bit embarrassed inside. She actually thought her friend was a flirt; that was outrageous.
Unlike the anxious and confused Yuigahama, Yukino was very calm and even looked at Haruto with disdain.
But she couldn't help but feel her face getting a little warm.
Fortunately, they all saw with their own eyes that Haruto was very honest and didn't do anything inappropriate. Otherwise, she wouldn't have stayed so calm and would have immediately pulled out her phone to call the police!
As for Yuzuru, she was straightforward, glaring at Haruto suspiciously, wondering if he had secretly done something bad to her sister.
Haruto stopped abruptly: "The examination is complete."
If he continued, it would be too embarrassing if any inappropriate noises occurred!
When that happens, he would be seen as a pervert or something, and he didn't want to lose face!
And it was almost done.
Shouko's physical condition was actually quite good; she was just weak and uncomfortable due to illness.
After a while of contact, her coldness almost completely disappeared.
Haruto broke the strange atmosphere and said indifferently, "There's nothing wrong with her health. She's just a bit weak. Get plenty of rest."
With that, he wanted to pull his hand back.
However, Shouko, not knowing what she was doing, moved first and grabbed his hand.
Seeing everyone looking at her, Shouko realized what she was doing, quickly withdrew her hand, and covered her flushed face with her hands.
"Ha ha ha…"
A dry laugh escaped from Yuigahama, and she quickly bid farewell: "Shouko-chan, make sure to get plenty of rest. We'll be leaving now and will come see you next time."
So embarrassing!
If they stayed any longer, everyone would be mortified.
And just in case, what if Shouko confessed to Haruto?
Haruto had said he didn't like Shouko, so he would reject her, right?
When that happens, things will only get worse.
In this situation, no matter how Yuigahama looked at it, it wasn't wise to stay.
Yukino stood up, pursed her lips, and said, "Nishimiya-san, rest well, we're leaving now."
Yuzuru stood up: "See you."
After leaving the Nishimiya house and walking toward the train station, the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so the three of them quickly split up and went their separate ways. Haruto checked the time and saw that it wasn't yet 5 PM.
However, he didn't plan to go to the Nakano household. Even though he was a tutor, according to the contract, he wasn't required to go every day.
The Nakano family was indeed wealthy, and their tutoring fees were three times the market rate!
The only issue was that the contract was time-limited.
In a month, if the quintuplets didn't pass their exams, their tutoring contract would officially be terminated.
This was almost an impossible task.
Without him, after this period of understanding, Haruto clearly recognized the fact that Itsuki was an idiot. The only thing that made people admire her was how serious and hardworking she was.
As for the others, Yotsuba was very cooperative, but unfortunately, she was still dumb and couldn't learn.
Nino was always looking to cause trouble.
Ichika refused to study.
The same went for Miku.
One could say this was quite challenging for any tutor who understood the situation with the Nakano quintuplets.
No wonder there were so many different tutors before him.
Haruto didn't say anything about this.
As a parent, it's only natural that their father would want to find a good teacher for his daughters.
Even if it was a bit of a hassle.
Haruto knew his way around and planned to walk back and do some shopping after a long time.
The sun was setting.
Tired birds were returning to their nests.
Walking toward the overpass, Haruto saw Nino shopping with two of her friends.
He didn't greet them and pretended not to notice.
Yesterday, Nino had caused trouble and had just been punished by him. Now that he ran into her, it would be troublesome no matter how he looked at it.
Haruto turned and left.
Nino accidentally turned around, glanced at the crowd, and then spotted Haruto's back.
Was that him?
Nino bit her lip silently, still feeling sore and uncomfortable from yesterday. Even though Yotsuba and the others assured her that Haruto didn't do anything to her, she still had doubts.
She vaguely remembered lying in bed and Haruto bending over to touch her head… Why did he bend over?
It must have been for something, right?
Facing such a super cute, defenseless girl, Nino didn't believe that Haruto would remain indifferent.
Maybe her first kiss…
Noticing Nino's strange expression, the girl next to her asked curiously, "Nino, are you okay? Did you see someone you know?"
She looked around, but unfortunately, didn't find anyone.
"Nino, your face is really red. Are you feeling sick?"
The other girl said worriedly, "How about you go back and get some rest today so you don't fall ill?"
