"She just discussed it with me and doesn't really want to repeat it a second time, so I'll tell it orally."
He pulled the band leader aside and talked about all the areas where their band could improve. His worry wasn't about saying something wrong, but about saying something that was too right. Sure enough, he gained a little fan and they even exchanged contact information to discuss band matters.
Chihaya Aine breathed a sigh of relief. He was sometimes a human being and actually helped her out.
When he came back, she saw that Asano Yushin was still holding a ticket in his hand, and couldn't help asking him, "What is this?"
"This is a couple's meal voucher he gave me. He said that with this voucher, I can dine at the famous restaurant on the cruise ship for free, and I can also get a special kaiseki meal."
"Huh? That's good."
Asano Yushin handed her the meal ticket. Chihaya Aine looked at the paper with various mini patterns printed on it. The two conspicuous hearts in the middle were pierced by an arrow.
She was so tempted. Although given her family's financial situation, her parents had taken her to eat Kaiseki cuisine many times, whether in Kyoto or Tokyo, but this was free. How could free be the same as paid!
"So, what are you going to do with this meal voucher?" Chihaya Aine asked curiously after returning it to him.
Asano Yushin put it in his pocket and said casually, "Of course I'll use it during dinner. After we get off the cruise ship, the meal voucher will be invalid. It's better to use it early."
Chihaya Aine's heart was pounding. She seemed to understand what he meant. He was inviting her, right? That's how TV dramas are played. They pretend to be a couple, then turn the fake into reality, and then a light comedy of love unfolds.
Alas, it's because Lady Aine is so charming that even Asano Yuunobu can't resist her beauty. Being captured by her is the development that fits the world view. He should be praised for being able to hold on for so long under her attack. It's not easy. He can give up struggling and enter the second stage of Aine's prisoner of war.
She took out her iPhone and roughly calculated the time. She had to reserve time for showering and putting on makeup. She had to dress up well for their private dinner together.
"I'll be leaving early tonight. Let me know when you're ready. I'll notify Mu and Nagasaki first so the teachers don't worry when we gather. Do you want to come pick me up or should I go and wait for you at your place?"
Asano Yushin was imagining having dinner with the cute doll girl in his mind. When he thought about starting a feeding play with Mu, who was as petite as a small animal, he couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
He was also glad that his relationship with Su Shi still had a layer of window paper, and had not broken through to the level of boyfriend and girlfriend. They just needed an opportunity. Ai Yin was at the starting line. The only one who got his big trophy was Mu, so he didn't need to worry too much about who to spend this couple's meal ticket with.
But Chihaya Aine's words left him bewildered, and he subconsciously asked her back, "Ah? You want to come too?"
"......"
She paused her light steps and looked straight at him. The smart light in her eyes slid to the lowest point and disappeared. Fatigue flowed into her body along her spine, and all the strength in her body was drained away at once.
Oh, did she misunderstand the other party again? It turned out that the other party had already decided who to go with.
That's right, how could a good-looking guy who plays in a band not have a girlfriend? A band often becomes famous not for releasing new songs or new commercial performances, but for its chaotic interpersonal relationships, which can be a topic of conversation that people enjoy. After entering the vortex of the band, it would be strange if Asano Yushin didn't have several girlfriends and hold concerts.
Not only a scumbag, but also a scumbag?
Chihaya Aine lowered her head and clenched her fists tightly. The values she had developed since childhood reminded her not to get too close to people like Asano Yushin, otherwise she would easily get hurt.
Asano Yushin sighed inwardly, thinking frantically of a remedy. In the simulation, the real person was operating. If the initial favorability was too low, he would likely be restricted in many ways, which would significantly slow down the progress of the simulation.
He had an idea, but it might damage his reputation. No matter what, he would never let Chihaya Aine go even if it meant risking his reputation as a scumbag!
"I mean, I'm planning on finding a guy to pretend to be my partner and have a nice meal together. After all, who says there's no true love between men? If the restaurant doesn't recognize love between men, I'll report them for discriminating against diverse relationships. That's the only way I can think of using it."
"If only a beautiful and kind lady could do me this little favor. That way I wouldn't have to choose between fame and a good meal. Then, who would be the holy angel who would save me?"
After hearing this, Chihaya Aine raised her head, and a new light appeared in her light gray eyes. However, she did not rush to agree, but was organizing her words.
She was really pstd, afraid that she would expect too much and then be disappointed too early. Three times the limit, she didn't want to be disappointed for the third time!
"Actually, as long as you are pious, that beautiful, kind, open-minded lady with unparalleled wisdom will appear by your side. It would be best if you call her name and become her believer. That would be perfect. If you pray to her, she will answer your wishes."
Chihaya Aine said this intentionally or unintentionally. If you want to invite her, you should lower your posture and call her name. You pull her around every day. Do you really think she has no temper at all?
Asano Yushin naturally understood what she meant, and without hesitation, he clasped his hands together and prayed: "Saint Aine, please respond to this poor believer of mine, so that I can have a full stomach, no longer suffer from poverty and hunger, and no longer bear the stigma of polyamory."
Chihaya Aine nodded, very satisfied with his attitude. Her tone soon softened: "Then I will reluctantly fulfill your wish. After all, I am kind-hearted and cannot bear to see Asano-kun suffer."
"Hmm, when are you planning on leaving, Aine-sama?"
"I'll chat with you privately on Line after I shower. Just pay attention to my messages. Let's go check out where the restaurant is first, so we don't have to spend time looking for it in the evening."
"Roger that!"
As they walked, the two discussed their plan to pretend to be a couple tonight. Asano Yushin glanced at the god he had just believed in, thinking that the god was not very serious and had some evil intentions towards him. Perhaps after he conquered him, the god who was as holy as before would want to believe in religion with the believer whose heart had long been turbid.
"I said, you said it was good, and the band leader agreed with your evaluation. I said it was very good, and he kept asking me what was good about it. Why didn't he ask you?"
Chihaya Aine didn't keep this question in her heart for too long and asked him directly.
Asano Yushin pondered for a moment before answering, "Because music is very subjective, everyone's listening experience is different. Whether it's good or bad isn't really important. What's important is how many people say it's good and how many say it's bad."
"A band isn't just for a small audience. If they want to be famous, they have to serve the majority. It's not just people who understand music who are qualified to judge whether a song is good or not. Positive feedback from ordinary people is actually more important to them."
"So, when you say it's good, it might sound like a perfunctory evaluation to them. Of course, it's also possible that you seem more like an expert, while I seem more like an outsider."
Chihaya Aine made a cute nasal sound. This guy could finally praise her even though he was a dog. She was secretly delighted but accepted his flattery calmly on her face.
"Asano-kun, do you have your own band? Do you want me to go and support you?" She was a little curious about what his band was like.
Asano Yushin coughed lightly and said, "I don't have a band. I'm just the band's backup, a universal plug-in. Wherever I'm needed, I'll go there to put out the fire and help out."
"Is that so? Then why don't you form a band with me? It's always a bit uncomfortable to be in someone else's band all the time, right? Why don't we form one together?"
Chihaya Aine became embarrassed and hesitantly made such a suggestion. She always felt that it was a bit shameless for a newbie who hadn't even bought a guitar to invite a band member who was supposed to be an expert to back her up.
Asano Yushin thought about it for a moment, then readily agreed: "No problem, but let's talk about the band thing after the school trip."
He already knew the remaining members of the band. Two of the three members of the light music club of Tsukinomori had defected to join him before they even became sworn brothers. As for Xiangzi, he could only wish her all the best in Tsukinomori.
"Okay!" Chihaya Aine smiled joyfully, her canine teeth very eye-catching.
The restaurant has put a lot of thought into its style and theme. The warm orange lighting creates an elegant atmosphere comparable to a concert hall. The artistic mural wallpaper behind it expresses the unique artistic taste through the form of connection. There are quite a few people eating inside, and under the influence of the atmosphere, everyone eats very dignifiedly.
Asano Yushin went up to ask the waiter about the authenticity of the meal voucher. The other party confirmed the feasibility of the voucher, and he felt relieved. If this thing was not usable, and Chihaya Aine was a big eater, then his wallet might be in trouble.
Upon learning that he was dealing with the waiter for something like this, Aine scratched her cheek and said, "Even if it's not free, I'll just pay. Let's just have a good meal together, don't worry about the bill."
She likes the kind of happiness that comes without any effort, and is also keen on the ambiguous relationship with Asano Yushin as a couple. Free is a good thing, but not free doesn't matter, she just pays for it.
What Chihaya Aine values most is the process of having dinner with Asano-kun; trivial matters like settling the bill are not her concern.
After leaving the western restaurant and returning to his room, Chihaya Aine stopped, waved at him, and whispered, "Remember not to be late tonight."
Asano Yushin made an OK gesture and watched the pink-haired girl leave.
He pushed open the door of his room and found it empty. There was only a messy quilt and a pair of small yellow socks with lace patterns on the bed.
What's going on? Could it be that Nagasaki Suyo found out about his affair with Cucumber and, enraged, chose to kill the defenseless Cucumber, and finally thoughtfully left a pair of holy relics for him to remember her by?
It’s not necessary to think of Su Shi as such a bad person. She is just a delicate and reputable JK, not an urban murderer.
He glanced at a piece of paper pressed by the cup on the table, moved the cup away, and took out the note. There was a line of beautiful small words written on it.
Xiao Mu was very seasick and was not suitable for strenuous exercise. I took her to my room to take care of her so as not to disturb Asano-kun's rest. - Nagasaki Suyo
He could understand every word in Japanese, even when put together, but he didn't quite understand the intense exercise. Was he the type of scum who would take advantage of others?
It seems that Nagasaki Suyo has a deep misunderstanding of him. It is obvious that most of the time the girls would take the initiative to ride on him while chatting, and every time he would be amazed at the girls' snake-like flexibility in their waists while lying down. Nagasaki Suyo even wanted to break his pelvis, and now she has the nerve to criticize him.
Really, girls' lips are amazing. Except when kissing, they are soft. At other times, they are harder than three-body water droplets.
That's great. Nagasaki Suyo took the initiative to help him solve the difficulties of meeting with Minato Fanmao in private. She is really a good wife and mother. She is thoughtful and considerate, like a queen!
I shared the seascape photos collected on my phone with Jiashu, who was very concerned about my school trip, and chatted with my stepsister for a while. Soon it was time to set off.
Asano Yushin changed into a Korean-style black inner suit that fitted his lean and strong figure very well. He unbuttoned the top two buttons in front of the small mirror, casually adjusted his hair, put a clean handkerchief into the pocket on his chest, and was almost ready to set off.
The classmates he met along the way didn't recognize him as the aloof and honest Asano Yushin, and thought he was some frivolous young man going on a sweet date.
When Chihaya Aine saw him, she rubbed her eyes, her eyes full of disbelief. She thought she had recognized the wrong person. How could he suddenly become so mature and bold? Compared with him, her dress seemed ordinary.
"Can we go now?" he invited her politely.
Chihaya Aine lifted her bangs that were a little messy due to the wind, "Of course! I mean, my makeup might not be suitable. I'll go touch up my makeup." A conflicted look appeared on her face.
A hand stopped her as she was about to go back to her room. She looked at the boy in front of her with a gentle smile.
"The makeup is perfect. You're already beautiful enough today, just like the Mona Lisa in the Louvre. Any more is too much, any less is too little. What I need to do now is to make Mona Lisa come alive from the painting and enjoy a sumptuous dinner."
Chihaya Aine's cheeks were burning hot. She turned her head away, not daring to meet his burning gaze. How could this guy be so smooth-talking and talkative? He was really good at coaxing girls.
"Well, let's go." She responded to his compliment in a mosquito-like voice.
Asano Yushin smiled. This guy is the type with high attack and low defense. After a few words of praise, white smoke is about to come out of his head. He has turned into a steam princess. He dare not imagine what Chihaya Aine will be like after being conquered.
At dinner time, they sat together at the edge of the restaurant. The huge crystal chandelier above the ceiling illuminated Chihaya Aine's charming face. It was quiet and romantic, the most suitable atmosphere for a date. Although they were just pretending to be a couple in name, they both knew that there was nothing false about their ongoing date.
"Sir, here is the menu." The waiter respectfully opened the menu so that the two distinguished guests could read the contents at a glance.
Asano Yushin raised his head and asked the girl's opinion: "Is there anything Aine would like to eat?"
"Salmon, right? But sashimi is usually made of giant squid and tuna. Can you make some slight adjustments?" Chihaya Aine said casually.
The waiter nodded and made a note in his notebook, indicating that it was completely fine.
Chihaya Aine looked at the boy in front of her curiously. She was just used to her parents arranging everything for her, but that didn't mean she was as pure as a blank sheet of paper. After experiencing the baptism of heavy rain in London, she understood that interpersonal relationships were not as simple as they seemed, so she specially investigated Asano Yunobu's family background.
Given his financial situation, he couldn't afford to spend money in a restaurant of this size frequently. But why did he seem more experienced than her, and there was a hint of annoyance in his eyes? Could he be tired of eating there?
Asano Yushin did eat a lot. His rich experience in the simulation made him almost resistant to these luxurious dishes. All he ate were white truffles, caviar, sea urchin and other things. The etiquette of dining was engraved in his bones, and it was no exaggeration to say that it was instinctive.
He looked at the girl opposite him. The light stained her makeup, making her look so gorgeous. The waist-cinching skirt showed off the girl's proud figure. The youthful vitality made her show off her beauty unscrupulously. Youth was the girl's most solid asset.
The gray crystal eyes hid a pool of spring water, and the eyelashes swept across gently like willow branches, creating ripples in the gray lake, which also moved his heart.
It can't be said that she appeared in formal attire, but this is a date. Clothes are for the sake of people. If a person is not good-looking, then even if she wears fancy clothes, she will look like a colorful rooster, not a peacock. If a person is good-looking, even if she wears coarse linen clothes, it cannot hide her natural beauty.
The dish that was originally tasteless now tasted a bit delicious. Asano Yushin finally realized the destructive power of the phrase "beauty is a feast to the eyes". He was eating the dish and tasting the beauty.
He remembered that during his school days, it was only Chihaya Aine who made him experience the life of a school bully in anime.
School bully does not refer to fighting, killing and worldly affairs, but it means that there must be a sufficiently good-looking deskmate to be the heroine of your campus love story, and it is better to have more than one. That would be a qualified school bully anime. Add some hot-blooded high school fighting, some sneaky battles of wits, and some daily reasoning that cannot be examined in detail, and you can embellish youth into a Roman love story.
As a galgame pastry maker, Asano Yushin naturally longed for a similar life, but beautiful encounters usually happened outside the school. There was no trace of love in the school. The system looked down on ordinary girls who called him out to confess their love.
The system is capital S, and he is M. He can't bear to see the host go smoothly, so he has to send some suffering girls with flawed original families to redeem him, otherwise it will be smooth sailing all the way, which will make the host too enjoyable.
However, when Chihaya Aine walked into his field of vision, he initially thought it was the system's hand, but later he dispelled this suspicion.
This girl has positive values and is kind-hearted. He also found out about her family situation. She has parents who love her. Under the influence of her parents, she is also willing to love her classmates. Even though her classmates are dismissive of her love, there is still Yushin Asano who cares about her who is being ostracized. Thus, the fate of the two intertwines.
There were no fights, reasoning, stealing or other incidents in the school, but there was a lively girl sitting at the back desk, and the simple love story had an underlying logic to operate.
If she doesn't look back, she can only look at you except the blackboard. If she looks back, she can look into the beautiful girl's eyes affectionately. The veteran lover and the naive girl start their daily flirting. Isn't this a classic love combination that has never changed from generation to generation?
Sitting at the back window of the classroom, enjoying the anime script, and welcoming the life of a school bully, Nagasaki Suyo's harmonious transfer to another school makes his love story even more polished.
Asano Yushin sneered sinisterly at his peers who did not know how to cherish Chihaya Aion. There were too many normal people in these classmates' circle, and they did not understand the value of Chihaya Aion at all.
She was like a bonus level sent by the always anthropomorphic system out of the blue, allowing him to relax in the high-pressure simulation.
It's great that Chihaya Aine has positive values, a happy family, and good looks. Putting her figure aside, she is simply the chosen heroine who reached the peak of her career as soon as she debuted. Unlike Xiangzi who had to evolve into Kami, Metis grew up from a naughty child, and Nagasaki Suyo's lack of love needed to be filled, which was a heavy blow to Mori Minami, the source of Mu's pain.
As the long piano music sounded, Asano Yushin broke free from his thoughts and subconsciously frowned, wanting to politely ask the pianist in the swallowtail suit, "Have you ever learned piano? You just play some random things as if it were your fault."
"Is the food not to your liking?" Chihaya Aine asked tentatively, thinking that it was because she didn't put on makeup well that annoyed him.
He shook his head. "Not really. It tastes pretty good. I just don't like the mustard."
She asked the question in her mind: "Asano-kun seems to be familiar with these dishes?"
"My friends took me to eat more." He answered without raising his head.
Chihaya Aine was at a loss for words. This was her first time having dinner with a boy, and wasn't the essence of pretending to be a couple just to be a couple? How did she grasp the key point of "pretending"?
The waiter who was observing secretly came to the colleague who was playing the piano and asked him to quickly switch to a love-themed song to promote the couple's passionate love and trigger the hotel plot.
It is true that Kaiseki cuisine is free, but their restaurant does not only provide this service. There are also a lot of sky-high priced dishes. Just waiting for the vain boys to impulsively place orders for those deceptive dishes that make their employees' eyelids twitch just to win the smile of the beautiful women.
However, the result seemed a little different from what they expected. The one who spent the huge sum of money was not the boy, but the girl with pink hair.
The most important skill for a waiter is to read people's expressions. If you don't have this ability, sooner or later you will get into trouble and the company will put you on unpaid annual leave with no specific duration.
The waiter seemed to be clearing the table near the two of them, but he was actually observing the small interactions between the two of them with his peripheral vision. It would not matter if he didn't look, but as soon as he did, he could see a lot of clues.
Fake couple, he quickly came to this conclusion, and it was different from what everyone expected.
At first, I thought that some young master was using the couple package activity to trick the naive girl into pretending to be a couple. After their relationship warmed up, he stopped pretending and turned into an evil big bad wolf to eat the pure white little lamb in one bite.
Then, something seemed to be wrong. It seemed that the rich woman had taken a fancy to the beloved big toy and started a little game of girl chasing boy.
Finally, he vaguely felt that the boy seemed to be an old hand in the world of women. He pretended to be a prey with many flaws, but was actually a hunter in disguise waiting for someone to take the bait. He coaxed the rich young woman into a trance, without making any promises, but maximized her emotional value. The girl was amused by his words from time to time.
The waiter was hanging around them, wiping the table until it was almost shiny, and he finally seized a good opportunity.
The young rich woman seemed to be troubled about how to find topics to continue to heat up the relationship, and she got into an awkward situation where she didn't know where to start. She seemed to lack experience in adjusting the mood.
It doesn’t matter, he will take action, and this is when the props team comes on stage. Yes, it’s him again.
It's not easy to be a restaurant waiter nowadays. Even a small waiter has performance requirements. If he doesn't put in some effort to get customers to spend more, his salary will not be enough. Fortunately, he watched a lot of dating variety shows and learned some skills.
