But Kagura Manki still did not react.

With a sigh, Kagura Chizuru seemed to understand something, then lay down on her side on the tatami mat and rested her head on her sister's lap.

Missing Shen Jun?

Kagura Maki's eyelashes trembled slightly.

"Looks like I was right." Kagura Chizuru sighed again, but this time it was for herself. She then forced a smile and said, "Oh well, he'll be back in a few days anyway, don't worry."

At this moment, Kagura Maki's gaze finally focused on her younger sister, but she said something that stunned her sister.

"Chizuru, do you prefer a white kimono, a wedding dress, or a floral wedding gown?"

"what???"

……

Just as the morning sun was peeking out, a phone call woke Shen Ye from his sleep.

Thinking it was his phone ringing, Shen Ye picked up the phone from the bedside table without even opening his eyes. But when he opened his eyes a crack, he realized it wasn't his phone at all; it was the hotel landline in the room that was ringing.

Shen Ye tossed his phone aside, sat up with a sigh, picked up the landline receiver, and said weakly into the phone, "I didn't order room service, I don't accept sales pitches, and I'm not planning to write a complaint. Please let me sleep in peacefully; I have things to do tonight!"

Then, he was about to put the microphone back when a familiar voice came through the microphone, speaking in a weak tone: "Shen, it's me, Helena. I'm here to call you for breakfast... Did I disturb your sleep?"

"Of course... um! Miss Helena, it's you?" Shen Ye, suddenly snapping out of his daze, immediately sat up, his voice becoming much louder.

He never expected that the person who called him so early in the morning would be Helena, and that she would call directly into his room.

"Pfft, Shen, you seem to be scared!" As if imagining Shen Ye's reaction, Helena's suppressed laughter came from the other end of the phone.

"How can it be……"

Shen Ye immediately began to defend himself, then asked, "How did you break in?"

“I got transferred here from the hotel reception!” Helena said matter-of-factly. “The hotel you’re staying at is my family’s property.”

Very well, no wonder her tone sounds similar to that of the Kagura sisters.

Besides, I'm really lucky; the hotels I stay at are all related to important female characters.

It seems that the goddess has been in a good mood lately.

Thinking this to himself, Shen Ye casually said, "So you're a rich young lady, Miss Helena."

"Don't be so formal, and don't treat me like some kind of rich lady. Just call me Helena." Helena's tone was clearly displeased.

"Alright then, Helena." Shen Ye shrugged. The girl was easy to get along with and didn't have any of the temperament of a young lady.

“That’s right.” Helena’s tone suddenly became more joyful.

"By the way, did you not sleep well? Why don't you sleep a little longer, and I'll call you for breakfast when you wake up," Helena said again.

"You've already called, it would be impolite for me to keep sleeping. Wait a minute, I'll wash up and come down."

"Okay, see you later."

"see you later."

Shortly after, Shen Yeqing went out looking refreshed, preparing to take the elevator down for dinner.

As soon as he stepped out, the bodyguard standing guard at the door was stunned. He hadn't expected Shen Ye to be there so early.

After thinking for a moment, the bodyguard took out his phone and dialed a number. Then, just as Shen Ye walked to the elevator door, the door of the suite closest to the elevator suddenly opened, and Shinichiro, wearing pajamas, rushed out, holding a cell phone in his hand.

"Mr. Shen, where are you going?"

"Have a meal."

"Then I'll go arrange it right away." Shinichiro raised his phone to dial a number.

Shen Ye immediately shook his head: "No need, someone has prepared it for me."

"Someone... is ready?" Shinichiro was stunned for a moment, and only after Shen Ye entered the elevator did he react, and then he dialed the young lady's number...

……

"Shen!"

The hotel restaurant was on the third floor. As soon as Shen Ye stepped out of the elevator, he saw the mature young woman Helena waving vigorously at him from a distance.

Shen Ye looked at her, his eyes narrowing slightly, and asked, "You're not going to wait for me here the whole time, are you?"

"Yes!" the girl answered readily.

"You're being too polite."

"You're a guest!" the girl said nonchalantly, then reached out and grabbed Shen Ye's arm. "Let's go, breakfast is ready, just waiting for us to come and eat."

Upon entering the restaurant, Helena led Shen Ye to a window seat, where the small table was already laden with exquisite food.

"Shen Ye, would you like some wine?" Helena asked after Shen Ye sat down.

"Who drinks first thing in the morning?"

Shen Ye said this with a bit of unease. His hometown had a tradition of drinking early morning wine, but drinking early morning wine also required the right atmosphere. Besides, no matter how exquisite a French breakfast was, it didn't seem to be a good match for drinking alcohol.

“That seems to make sense.” Helena nodded, her long golden hair tied into a ponytail, which swayed happily with her movements, making the girl look more lively and cute.

Then, the mature young woman pushed a plate of white mousse cake in front of Shen Ye.

"Shen, try this. This flavor of mousse is especially delicious."

Seeing the enthusiastic girl, Shen Ye felt embarrassed to say that he didn't really like this kind of sweet and cloying Western pastry, so he picked up a fork, took a small piece, and ate a bite.

"How is it?" Helena suddenly asked nervously.

The girl suddenly looked nervous, and Shen Ye knew the reason without even thinking. He nodded and said, "It tastes good."

The girl immediately burst into laughter.

……

(Okay, adding a new character is like adding another romantic subplot, which makes it a bit wordy, but if I don't write it this way, it seems like there's nothing else to write about...)

(Hmm, it seems the only way to speed things up is by increasing the quantity.)

Chapter 648! Car Accident and Misunderstanding

……

To be fair, French breakfast is much better than English breakfast. Of course, it would be even better if it didn't have that sickeningly sweet mousse cake. Unfortunately, it was a gift from a mature young woman, and Shen Ye could only force himself to eat it all.

After Shen Ye finished eating the mousse cake, breakfast was basically over. Helena waved her hand, and a waiter came over to clear the table and then brought two cups of black tea.

However, Shen Ye's cup was hot, while Helena's cup was emitting cold air.

Mature young women like to drink iced tea.

Seeing Helena's satisfied smile after taking a big gulp of iced tea, Shen Ye couldn't help but think that the girl's period probably hadn't come these past few days.

Okay, he admits that a young girl's figure can easily lead to all sorts of wild thoughts.

After inwardly condemning his inappropriate thoughts, Shen Ye took a sip of tea. He was quite satisfied with the unsweetened tea.

Letting out a long breath, Shen Ye turned his gaze back to Helena, only to find that Helena was also looking at him. Their eyes met briefly in the air, and the girl immediately lowered her head, a blush appearing on her face.

It seems that girls are becoming more easily embarrassed these days.

Seeing Helena with her head down and silent, Shen Ye put down his teacup. Since she had treated him to breakfast, he couldn't appear too distant or cold, so he asked, "Speaking of which, Helena, you must be quite young. Don't you have to go to school?"

With a topic of conversation, the atmosphere wouldn't be so silent... or rather, it would be a little ambiguous. The mature girl immediately raised her head and said in a slightly cool voice, "Today is Friday."

"So you only have classes four days a week here?" Shen Ye asked curiously.

"No, it's just that Friday morning class wasn't important, so I didn't go," Helena said somewhat embarrassedly.

"Oh, you skipped class." Shen Ye laughed. It was surprising that a girl who looked like a well-behaved girl would skip class.

The mature girl didn't speak, but lowered her head again. After a while, she looked up and asked, "Shen, have you ever skipped class?"

That's a good question. It hit Shen Ye's sore spot. Shrugging, Shen Ye said, "I basically didn't attend university for more than a few days."

"Huh?" Helena looked surprised.

"I signed up for the army after only a few days of freshman year." There was nothing to be ashamed of, so Shen Ye just said it directly.

“That’s a shame, but university life is still quite good,” Helena said, speaking with the mindset of a French person.

Upon hearing this, Shen Ye shook his head: "Actually, I miss the time I spent in the military. If it weren't for special reasons, I don't think I would have retired so early."

“Okay, but I still don’t understand.” Helena shook her head.

"That's normal, because I'm from China," Shen Ye said with a smile. It's likely that people from most countries around the world, except for those from China, have a negative view of military service.

Helena naturally couldn't fully understand the patriotism of the people of Z country, but seeing Shen Ye smiling, she smiled along with him.

"Shen, what are you planning to do later?" Helena asked, taking another sip of tea.

"I was planning to go back to my room for a nap." Although he could go without sleep for a few days, he didn't sleep well last night.

“I’m sorry to bother you,” Helena said immediately.

"fine."
