Girl idols are meant to be exploited!

Hiroi Kikuri angrily pulled Hoshikawa Taku over and said, "I meant that if you do something like this at night, you should notify me! Last time, you didn't even say hello and didn't come back to sleep at night. Do you know how much psychological damage this caused me when I was alone in the empty room?"

"But if I tell you, you won't be able to sleep at night."

Hoshikawa Taku shrugged.

"Don't bother me with your feelings! If you really want to take my feelings into consideration, you should go home on time at night and pay your dues to me!"

After saying this, Hiroi Kikuri sighed deeply, looked up at Hoshikawa Taku, and said with a face full of resentment, "Forget it, after all, I'm not your girlfriend. I'm just a vent for you living with me. Even if you're holding hands with other girls, I have no right to ask..."

These words made Taku Hoshikawa feel a little guilty.

"Don't say that. I care about you too... I admit that I was wrong this time."

A sly look flashed in Hiroi Kikuri's eyes: "Well, if you want me not to be angry, then you have to make it up to me once!"

So this was her purpose... Why did she, who is usually so carefree, suddenly start complaining?

Hoshikawa Taku sighed helplessly: "I know, I will compensate you..."

After hearing the satisfactory answer, Hiroi Kikuri's "anger level" finally subsided.

But she immediately returned to gossiping with great interest:

"Hey, Xingchuan, when did you start dating Xiao Ai? I haven't heard you talk about this before."

"We had only been together for a short time. I didn't come home that night and just stayed with her. That was the day we started dating."

Hiroi Kikuri has seen everything now, and Hoshikawa Taku no longer hides it from her.

"Huh? It's been half a month?"

Kikuri's eyes widened, her tone filled with surprise. "You're amazing! I thought you guys were just drunk yesterday and acted on impulse... Aren't you moving too fast?"

After expressing her feelings, Kikuri Hiroi quickly became worried about Taku Hoshikawa.

"You've been dating for so long, does Miss Hasegawa know about this? If she knew, wouldn't she be furious?"

Hasegawa has always treated Mizuno Ai as her own sister. She had previously exposed the unfair treatment that Ai had received to her former agency. Now if she knew that Hoshikawa Taku and Mizuno Ai were secretly dating, her reaction might be even greater.

"In fact, Hasegawa knew about this matter, and she agreed to it."

Hoshikawa Tuodao.

"……Eh?"

Guang Jing almost couldn't help but scream.

She stared at Xingchuan Taku with an incredible look on her face: "She cares about Xiao Ai so much, but she actually allows Xiao Ai to date a philandering man like you?"

"Wait...does she think you're loyal and that Xiao Ai is the only person you're dating?"

Hiroi Kikuri quickly realized the reason.

"……Um."

Hoshikawa Taku nodded.

"So that's why you want me to keep it a secret and not tell me about our relationship?"

Hiroi Kikuri suddenly realized.

"Yes, that's it..."

Hoshikawa Taku sighed helplessly, "But now, I'm afraid this matter can't be concealed anymore..."

"How can I not hide it? Didn't I not expose myself just now?"

Hiroi asked in confusion.

Xingchuan Taku rubbed his temples and said with a headache: "You haven't exposed yourself, but Xiao Ai has already started to test me. I suspect that Xiao Ai already knows about our relationship, but just hasn't pointed it out."

Although Xiao Ai didn't say anything, Xingchuan Taku felt that she had already seen it, but just didn't dwell on this issue for the time being.

If this matter is not resolved, it will become a big hidden danger. Hoshikawa Taku doesn't know whether Xiao Ai will suddenly become a "yandere" and use a "hatchet" on himself.

But how should he solve this matter?

Should he break up with Xiao Ai or with Hiroi Kikuri? Neither of these was the outcome he wanted.

Hiroi Kikuri also touched her chin and began to think about Hoshikawa Taku.

After a moment, a meaningful smile appeared on her face: "Actually, I don't think this is necessarily a bad thing."

"Ok?"

"Look."

Kikuri moved closer and lowered her voice as she analyzed, "Xiao Ai didn't get angry, nor did she question you. This shows that she actually cares about you and doesn't want to fall out with you because of another girl."

"Since she values ​​this relationship, does that mean...she might be able to accept that you're not 'just her'?"

Hoshikawa Taku smiled bitterly: "Don't be too optimistic... maybe she's just trying to save my face and wants me to take the initiative to break up with you."

"As long as you change your mind, she'll let bygones be bygones? Doesn't that just prove she doesn't want to be separated from you?"

Hiroi patted his chest confidently and said, "How about this, since you're not sure what she's thinking, why don't you let me test her? Maybe I can even get her to agree to a threesome with us!"

"Are you sure you can handle this?"

Hoshikawa Taku looked at her doubtfully.

"Don't worry, I was the one who successfully persuaded Shima and Eliza!"

She raised her chin with a confident look, "Just a little Mizuno Ai, watch me take her for granted!"

"Okay... I'll leave it to you then."

Hoshikawa Taku nodded.

Although Hoshikawa Taku didn't really expect Hiroi Kikuri to be able to "convince" Mizuno Ai to accept the absurd reality of multiple parties coexisting, he also knew that some words would be inappropriate no matter how he worded them.

It would be better to let Hiroi give it a try.

So, when breakfast was ready, he did not go to wake up Mizuno Ai himself, but put on his coat while telling Hiroi:

"I've made breakfast. Go wake Xiao Ai up. I'll go straight to the office. If Xiao Ai asks, tell her I have something urgent to deal with. Tell her not to worry. If she feels tired, just rest at home."

"I understand, just leave it to me!"

Kikuri Hiroi is ready to fight and can't wait to "fight" with Ai Mizuno.

"please."

Taku Hoshikawa said nothing more, closed the door and left home.

Hiroi Kikuri walked to the door of the master bedroom, took a deep breath, knocked gently, and said softly: "Xiao Ai, wake up, breakfast is ready."

"……coming."

A soft response came from inside the house.

After a slight movement, the door slowly opened.

Mizuno Ai was wearing a white shirt by Taku Hoshikawa, the sleeves of which were too long and hung loosely to her wrists.

Her hair was still a little messy, and her cheeks were rosy from just waking up. She looked like a soft and fluffy kitten, very pitiful.

"Good morning, Ms. Hiroi."

With a hint of smile in the corner of her eyes, she asked naturally as if nothing had happened, "Has Mr. Xingchuan left yet?"

"Well, he has some urgent matters to attend to at the office, and he told you to rest a little longer today."

Hiroi Kikuri also smiled, revealing the gentle expression of a caring sister, and asked with concern, "By the way, why are you wearing Xingchuan's clothes? Don't you have anything else to wear?"

"My clothes are still in the bathroom, so I have to borrow Mr. Hoshikawa's clothes. How about it? Do they fit?"

Xiao Ai even walked around with a smile on her face.

"It fits quite well, but this outfit is not suitable for wearing outside. I'll lend you some of mine later."

Hiroi Kikuri is genuinely warm-hearted.

The conversation between the two seemed normal, like that of good sisters, but in fact they had already had a secret confrontation.

The two walked to the dining table, one in front and one behind, and sat down. There was breakfast for two on the table. Hoshikawa Taku specially made tamagoyaki, which was Mizuno's favorite.

When Xiao Ai saw it, a smile flashed in her eyes.

Hiroi noticed the smile and pretended to say casually, "This tamagoyaki is what Ai Ai likes, right? Xingchuan cares about you very much. When he cooks for me, he always makes some clean and fat-reducing meals. He doesn't care what I like to eat at all."

Hiroi Kikuri seems to be expressing her "envy", but between the lines she implies the intimacy of her and Hoshikawa "living together" for a long time.

Mizuno Ai took a light bite of her tamagoyaki and responded calmly, "Mr. Hoshikawa has always been considerate of others. Not just me, he helps many people unconditionally... Just like when I first met him, he was willing to save me even though he had nothing to do with me."

She paused and added, "I heard from Mr. Xingchuan that you, Ms. Hiroi, are alcoholic. He probably doesn't want to see you get into trouble in your prime, so he's helping you out of kindness."

Hiroi Kikuri raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect Mizuno Ai to be so eloquent. Although she spoke gently, she was actually hinting to her not to be self-indulgent and misunderstand her kindness.

She smiled and said, "Yes, so we are the same. He saved our lives and is our benefactor, right?"

Mizuno Ai seriously corrected: "Not only is he a benefactor, Mr. Xingchuan is also my lover now."

Hiroi acted envious and sighed, "Yeah, I really envy you. You're actually able to date Hoshikawa Taku... I wanted to date him, but he didn't want to. He insisted that I quit drinking completely before he agreed."

Mizuno Ai was stunned for a moment: "...You two are not dating?"

Hiroi Kikuri smiled and shook her head.

"Of course not. At the beginning, he was just like you said, with a look of disgust on his face, saying that he was worried that if I dated him, I might suddenly die one day. So he made a deal with me that if I could really quit drinking, he would date me then."

"But... maybe he was just talking."

Hiroi pretended to be melancholy and complained, "Look, now he already has you. He might have forgotten all the 'promises' he made before."

Hiroi Kikuri played a little trick - who said you can't sleep in the same bed if you're not dating?

Although she was not officially dating Taku Hoshikawa, they had already done everything that should and should not be done between two people, and they had a very "thorough" understanding of each other's bodies.

Kikuri Hiroi also learned bad things from Taku Hoshikawa. Although she said the truth, she concealed key information, causing Ai Mizuno to misjudge their relationship.

So that’s how it is… Mizuno Ai suddenly realized.

No wonder Taku Hoshikawa lives with Miss Hiroi. It turns out that they have an agreement that if she really quits drinking, then the two of them will be together.

However, before this happened, I showed up and confessed my love for Mr. Hoshikawa.

This answer can fully explain why two people live together and seem to have an ambiguous relationship.

Mizuno Ai's hostility towards Hiroi Kikuri disappeared, and instead she felt a little guilty.

Although I am not the "third party", my appearance has indeed affected their future development.

Seeing the slight uneasiness on Xiao Ai's face, Hiroi Kikuri immediately took advantage of the situation:

"Xiao Ai, I like Xingchuan Taku just as much as you do. I know you are his girlfriend now, and I don't expect to date him, but can you let me stay with him and continue to live with him?"

She looked into Mizuno Ai's eyes and spoke sincerely.

"Let you live together..."

Mizuno Ai showed a bit of embarrassment on her face.

No girl would want her boyfriend to live with a member of the opposite sex who has a crush on him. Who knows if the two of them will suddenly have a falling out one day?

However, Xiao Ai couldn't say no at this moment.

Because she had snatched away Hiroi Kikuri's chance to date Hoshikawa Taku, it would be too cruel for him to drive her away...

Seeing Mizuno Ai's indecisive look, Hiroi Kikuri suddenly said meaningfully:

"Xiao Ai, I understand what you're thinking right now. You don't want to share your boyfriend with anyone else. But... do you really think I'm the only one who's thieving?"

Chapter 311: The damn tax thief.

Mizuno Ai's eyes suddenly became sharp: "Ms. Hiroi, what do you mean by this?"

Seeing that she took the bait as expected, Hiroi Kikuri's mouth corners curled up slightly.

"Xiao Ai, you've also met the other female artists at the agency, right? Xingchuan is so nice to everyone. Do you think those people really just admire him?"

"Among them, there are quite a few who have fallen in love with him. Some even... launched their pursuit of him before you did."

"I'm not sure whether Hoshikawa Taku accepted their confessions. Maybe he did, maybe not."

Hiroi Kikuri feigned kindness and said, "But... I have to warn you, you're surrounded by enemies. Be careful not to let someone else snatch him away, okay?"
