It's probably because she's annoying. It's probably because she's so damn persistent. It's probably because he's got better things to do than be pestered by some silly girl. It's probably for a majority of different reasons.

No. That's not the reason why he always says, in a very resigned manner, "I guess I'll think about it."

But he can't deny that she always does look so happy when he does figure it out...and that when she's happy, she does look incredibly cute.

But that's not why he does it. It can't be why he does it. It can't be, because that would mean that he cares about Chitanda Eru and caring means that he's using effort, which goes against everything he's ever known. And if anything's ever going to convince him to go against his motto, it sure as hell isn't going to be that dimmer-than-anything-but-incredibly-smart girl.

No. He always says yes because he's bored and got nothing else to do; that's all.

The look on her face is just a plus side; that's all.
