Chapter 15

Baihuang Academy truly lives up to its reputation as a prestigious noble school in this world. Even if we ignore its ridiculously large area and the buildings that look more like villas than classrooms, it is still far from ordinary...

Not to mention the extremely high admission threshold, which is enough to deter most students who come here with high hopes. This can be seen from the entrance examination papers of Baihuang Academy.

Even Yugen, who had memorized all the content of the textbooks, did not dare to say he could score above average, let alone others. Yugen wondered if it was because he had offended that neurotic big sister that he received such a difficult test paper, but it was indeed very challenging.

Despite this, Yugen was still confident about getting a passing score, which made him reflect on his past self who viewed exams as fierce beasts. With the 'perfect memory' ability, exams were nothing but a trivial matter...

Next, he just needed to wait for the admission notice from Baihuang Academy...

However, another difficulty now faced Yugen, due to a single sentence from Katsuragi Yuki.

"Leave your address, and the admission notice will be delivered by a dedicated person."

Yes, this is a normal procedure, leaving an address is a common thing. After all, Baihuang Academy wouldn't send someone to review your test just for you, and preparing the admission notice also takes time, about two to three days.

And during these two to three days, could you wait at the school?

So, leaving an address is just a formality.

The problem was, Yugen didn't have an address!

He had been in this world for less than a day, where could he possibly have a place to stay...

Just write down a random address? It wasn't impossible, but Yugen didn't know when the admission notice would be sent, and he couldn't stay in one place to wait for it...

Thus, Yugen fell into a not-so-big but not-so-small dilemma.

It's just an address... Is it really necessary to worry about it...

"What's wrong? Another problem?" Chrysanthemum had already gotten used to Yugen's occasional issues.

Yugen looked at the beautiful president, his eyes twinkling as a plan formed in his mind.

He suddenly knelt down in front of Chrysanthemum, startling the fearless president who was only afraid of tall people and small chests. Before Chrysanthemum could react, Yugen bowed and said with a serious face.

"Do you need a butler?"

"Huh?" Chrysanthemum was completely lost, what was he up to now?

"Chrysanthemum, let me be your butler." Indeed, Yugen couldn't stay serious for long, and within a second, he was back to his usual carefree self, spreading his hands and grinning.

"Be my butler?" Chrysanthemum pointed to her nose, surprised. Although she was in a noble school like Baihuang Academy, where most students came from wealthy families, she was just from a slightly well-off family, and had no need for a butler.

Moreover, the president was known for her capability, and had never thought about hiring a butler.

Suddenly having someone wanting to be her butler, when she didn't need one, made Chrysanthemum suspect that Yugen had ulterior motives.

"Yes! Be your butler!" Yugen said seriously, "How can the president of a noble school like Baihuang Academy not have her own butler? So I want to be your butler!"

"But... I don't need a butler, and I can't afford one. Don't look at me like that, my family can't compare to those super-rich ones, I'm not a lady..." Chrysanthemum said with a headache, honestly, she still couldn't keep up with Yugen's sudden actions, they were just talking about admission a moment ago.

"That's fine, I don't need a salary, so you can be completely at ease!"

No, you saying that makes me even more uneasy...

Chrysanthemum wanted to say, a free worker, and a voluntary one at that, claiming to have no ulterior motives, no one would believe it.

"How can that be! Not needing a salary..." Chrysanthemum said with a bit of caution, as if guarding against a wolf.

"That's not important, what's important is..." Yugen looked up at Chrysanthemum, his serious face suddenly filled with tears, looking like an abandoned child, pitiful and unwanted.

"I have nowhere to go!"

"..." Watching Yugen's quick change of expression, combined with his dramatic words, Chrysanthemum's mouth twitched uncontrollably.

"Your point is, you have nowhere to stay, so you want to be my butler and live in my house?" Finally, Chrysanthemum understood the cause and effect of the series of events, but after understanding, she felt a bit helpless.

"Yes, as you know, I'm from Huaguo, and I just arrived here, not knowing anyone, so of course I have nowhere to stay. So, Chrysanthemum, please be kind and take me in." Yugen spoke with such confidence, and Chrysanthemum had never seen anyone who could talk about freeloading so straightforwardly.

Of course, Yugen didn't think he was freeloading. Freeloading is when a woman supports a man, but I'm different. I'm here to protect the president, I'm a butler, I have a purpose, I'm pure...

Because he had nowhere to go, he wanted to be a free butler, just needing food and shelter. It was a good reason, at least the kind-hearted president couldn't think of a reason to refuse.

Sighing, Chrysanthemum said helplessly, "Alright, my house has an extra room, you can stay there, but no need for a butler."

"How can that be!" Yugen stood up, speaking with righteousness, "Wouldn't that make me a freeloader?"

Actually, even if you become a butler, you still have the suspicion of freeloading...

"Alright, alright, I understand, do as you please." Chrysanthemum had no way to deal with Yugen's eccentricity, but in fact, she didn't dislike it. After all, such a Yugen was easy to get along with, although a bit headache-inducing...

'Ding! Congratulations, user has obtained the title: President's Butler!'

Yugen automatically imagined the system's notification, and secretly smiled.

Being the president's butler... living together day and night... being close to the water makes the moon seem closer... the plan begins...

Alright, Yugen's true purpose was revealed.

"Then, Miss, would you like some tea?"

"Don't call me Miss!"

"How can that be, I'm your butler."

"But I'm not used to it..."

"Right, what would you like for dinner, Miss?"

"Stop calling me Miss!"

The two of them bantered as they walked away, completely forgetting about the other person present.

"That brat, he became Chrysanthemum's butler." This was the neurotic big sister who had watched the whole scene but only now reacted.

...

Very smoothly, Yugen moved into the president's house and was warmly welcomed by the mother-in-law (?). Not only that, Chrysanthemum's mother kept asking Yugen what he wanted to eat, how he wanted to sleep, if he needed clothes, and a series of questions, making Yugen feel quite embarrassed.

Yugen wanted to ask, who is the butler here, me or Chrysanthemum? The neurotic big sister must have been influenced by you...

Originally, Yugen thought that as the mother of a beautiful and excellent daughter, she should be very cautious about boys her daughter brought home, at least that's how it was in melodramatic movies and TV shows.

In the original story, although Aizaki Sora also stayed at Chrysanthemum's house and was treated the same as Yugen, it was because Sora looked so much like a girl that it greatly triggered Chrysanthemum's mother's maternal instincts, and she used Sora as a perfect human model to try on Chrysanthemum's clothes...

Because of this, even though Yugen knew that Chrysanthemum's mother was quite neurotic, he thought he would be treated differently.

However, completely unexpectedly, Chrysanthemum's mother treated him the same as she did Sora in the original story. Although he wasn't used as a human model, she didn't seem to worry about Chrysanthemum being deceived, and even seemed to hope that someone would take Chrysanthemum away.

Yugen knew that Chrysanthemum's mother was just their adoptive mother, and Chrysanthemum's real parents had abandoned her and her sister when they were young due to an 80 million yen debt.

But this didn't mean that Chrysanthemum's adoptive parents would reject her. On the contrary, from the conversation between Chrysanthemum and her mother, Yugen could see that their relationship was actually very good...

But thinking about it, Yugen understood. Chrysanthemum's mother really cared for her, treating her like a real daughter despite being an adoptive mother. The reason for this was not only her personality but also because Chrysanthemum was very capable and smart, and didn't need her to worry.

Having such a daughter, any normal parents would be especially proud, and having a butler would make them even more proud. Since Chrysanthemum wasn't a real lady, being treated like one would be a surprise to her mother, so the neurotic Chrysanthemum's mother being nice to Yugen was understandable.

Although, when Yugen shyly introduced himself as Chrysanthemum's butler, her mother's face was quite strange...

Yugen suspected that Chrysanthemum's mother might actually be the neurotic big sister's real mother, which was why she adopted Chrysanthemum. After all, they were both quite neurotic, and the big sister was even more so, unlike Chrysanthemum at all.

Because of work, Yugen hadn't met Chrysanthemum's father yet, but it seemed that in the original story, he was also quite neurotic...

So, Yugen imagined that due to some melodramatic event, they entrusted their daughter, the neurotic big sister, to Chrysanthemum's parents to take care of. Thus, the neurotic big sister and Chrysanthemum became sisters. When Chrysanthemum's parents fled with their debt, abandoning the two of them, they took Chrysanthemum and her sister back. Due to some other melodramatic event, they didn't admit to being the neurotic big sister's real parents, and instead claimed to have adopted her!

The truth was: Chrysanthemum and the neurotic big sister were not real sisters! Chrysanthemum was the one who was adopted!

As for whether this imagined truth was real or not, Yugen didn't know, but he knew that when he told Chrysanthemum his analysis, she was smiling but really wanted to beat him up...
