Girl idols are meant to be exploited!

Seeing that she had almost finished the box and had no intention of paying, the stall owner had no choice but to ask, "Madam... the total is 500 yen, can you please pay?"

"Ask him for the money to pay the bill!"

Hiroi pointed at Hoshikawa Taku without hesitation while holding a toothpick, "He and I are together!"

"You pay for what you buy yourself. I won't bother you."

Hoshikawa Taku said lightly.

The stall owner looked at Guangjing again, but Guangjing said confidently: "Why are you looking at me? I told him to pay!"

Seeing Hiroi's rogue look, the owner could only look to Hoshikawa Taku for help.

He thought that Hoshikawa Taku and Hiroi were a couple having conflicts, and this was just their way of showing affection and showing off their love.

"That gentleman..."

Hoshikawa Taku sighed speechlessly.

This guy Hiroi...if I don't pay, she's going to eat and dine for free, right?

Taku Hoshikawa didn't want to pay at first, but in order to avoid causing trouble, he came over and paid the money.

Seeing that Hoshikawa Taku looked unhappy, Hiroi directly poked a meatball and stuffed it into Hoshikawa Taku's mouth.

"Okay, now you've eaten, don't be angry!"

Hiroi smiled, as if she had already calculated that Hoshikawa Taku would pay for her.

Of course, because Hoshikawa Taku still has some dignity.

When the stall owner saw Guangjing feeding the fish, he was even more certain that they were a young couple.

Hiroi Kikuri quickly finished her meatballs and headed towards other stalls, looking as if she would not stop until she had filled her stomach.

Xingchuan Taku had no choice but to look at Lupa: "Lupa, please keep an eye on this girl and don't let her get into trouble. Whatever she spends will be mine."

Taku Hoshikawa put a ten thousand yuan bill in Lupa's hand.

Taku Hoshikawa really doesn't want to bother with Hiroi, but he is now in Pochi's school and he still has to pay attention to the impact. He can only accommodate her temporarily and settle the score with her later.

Aine and Satoshi weren't very interested in the food, so the two groups separated.

Hoshikawa Taku, Aine, and Satoshi followed the crowd and walked towards the teaching building; while Lupa and Hiroi stayed near the snack stalls, browsing the dazzling array of food stalls.

They walked through the crowd and came to a teaching building that was decorated in an exceptionally exquisite way.

Elaborately crafted colorful flags and handwritten slogans are hung on both sides of the corridor, and the entire teaching building is immersed in a strong festive atmosphere.

Walking along the corridor, you will find that the decorations at the entrances of each classroom are unique - some are decorated as haunted houses, some simulate escape rooms, and some are designed as dessert houses.

Aine looked at these classrooms that were decorated in a novel and creative way with a curious expression on her face, and Xiaozhi's eyes were also full of novelty.

As a dropout who never attended high school, Xiaozhi still finds such a lively cultural festival full of novelty.

Hoshikawa Taku noticed the two's excitement and said with a smile, "Aine, you and Xiaozhi go for a walk and meet up later."

"Mr. Xingchuan, aren't you going with us?"

Aine asked.

"I'll forget it."

Hoshikawa Taku shook his head.

Whether it is a cafe, a haunted house, an escape room or a board game room, they are basically simplified activities designed by students in a hurry.

Taku Hoshikawa is not interested in this simplified version. If he wants to go, he will go to a special store to have fun.

Only people of Aine, Satoshi and the others' age would find these activities novel. Hoshikawa Taku has become a boring adult who only cares about making money and playing with women.

No...he's a mature adult who's focused on his career and life.

After leaving Xiaozhi and Aine for a while, Hoshikawa Taku walked alone in the teaching building, listening to the lively sounds in each classroom and feeling the youthful atmosphere around him, feeling quite out of place.

It's only been a few years since I left school, whether in my previous life or this one. How come my heart has changed so much? I already feel like I'm not suited to this youthful environment...

The young bird really flew away without us noticing.

Just as Hoshikawa Taku was sighing, he noticed a golden-haired woman not far away who was looking out the window quietly, with her chin on one hand, watching the lively atmosphere downstairs, her eyes full of nostalgia.

Like Hoshikawa Taku, she seemed to feel that she did not belong here and missed the enthusiasm of her youth.

The other party is an old acquaintance of Hoshikawa Taku - Ijichi Hoshika, who is also Hongxia's sister.

The first time he saw her, Taku Hoshikawa felt a little guilty.

After all, he secretly signed Pochi without telling her, his caregiver, and used her as a shield, saying that she was the object of his admiration.

Hoshikawa Taku wanted to pretend not to see her and hurried past in the crowd, but Idichi Xingge had already noticed him, looked up, gave him a warm smile, and waved.

"Xingchuan, you came to see the performance of the Ending Band too."

Her voice was gentle, and the soft sunlight slanted down, gently outlining her elegant figure. Every strand of golden hair shimmered in the morning light, like fine gold powder dancing in the air.

She leaned slightly to the side, her face appearing soft and bright in the interweaving of light and shadow. This scene was like the smile of the Muse, which was heart-warming.

Hoshikawa Taku looked at her in a daze for a second and missed the best opportunity to escape.

There was no choice but to go over. Hoshikawa Taku gritted his teeth and greeted her as if nothing had happened.

Seeing that Ijichi Hoshige was still talking to him with a smile on her face as usual, Hoshikawa Taku finally felt relieved and secretly glad that she didn't hear from Iwashita Shima that he had a crush on her.

After a few pleasantries, Xingchuan Taku asked, "Xingge, are you here alone? Hongxia isn't with you?"

"Hongxia was having her final rehearsal with Pochi and the others in the gym, so I didn't bother them."

Ijichi Xingge came here with Hongxia, and since Hongxia was not around, she was naturally alone.

Hoshikawa Taku is also alone at this moment.

After thinking for a moment, Yidizhi Xingge gently lifted the strands of hair on her forehead and asked with a smile: "Xingchuan, are you alone too? Do you want to walk around here with me?"

Is this a date?

Originally, Taku Hoshikawa was not interested in visiting the cultural festival, but when he heard Ijichi Hoshika's invitation, he agreed for some unknown reason.

Chapter 129: Ichichi Xingge’s sense of crisis.

This time, accompanied by his companion, Ijichi Hoshika, Taku Hoshikawa visited the cultural festival again.

But even with a female companion by his side, Hoshikawa Taku still couldn't fit in, and the same was true for Ijichi Seika.

The two of them just hurried through every room they entered, taking a quick look and feeling bored.

Perhaps some people could let go of their burdens and return to being seventeen or eighteen years old, enjoying the festival, but Hoshikawa Taku and Ijichi Seika both carried too much and could not laugh and have fun like the young boys and girls in the room.

When Hoshikawa Taku asked Ijichi Hoshige how she felt about these activities, she shrugged helplessly, with a hint of loss in her eyes.

"This is a grand youth carnival, very lively, but this liveliness doesn't belong to me. I can't fit in with this atmosphere at all."

"I feel the same way. I feel like campus life has become a completely unrelated world to me since graduation."

Hoshikawa Taku smiled and felt the same way.

Hearing this, Yidizhi Xingge laughed and teased: "Aren't you only 24 years old and just graduated from school two years ago? How come you have changed so much?"

"As I've experienced so much, I've lost the sense of reality of school. Things that seemed interesting back then now seem boring to me."

Hoshikawa Taku shrugged, expressing his true feelings, and turned to ask Ichichi Hoshige.

"Xingge, when was the last time you participated in a school festival like this?"

"It's already seven... No, not long ago, just a few years ago."

Ijichi Hoshika quickly revised the original number and said somewhat sadly, "When I was in college, I was a member of the school's light music club. We formed a band and were quite famous at the time. Whether it was the school festival or any other large-scale event, the school would let us perform on stage."

"I miss it so much. I didn't expect so many years have passed..."

Speaking of Ijichi Hoshika's university, Hoshikawa Taku remembered that Hiroi and she were in the same school.

"I heard from Hiroi that she went to the same school as you, and she chose that school just because of you. But you guys graduated right after she enrolled, and you've never performed together."

Ichichi Hoshige smiled.

"It's her fault for coming so late. If she had come earlier, maybe she would have had a chance. But isn't their band doing pretty well now? I envy the atmosphere they have in their band now."

"By the way, Hiroi is here with me today."

"Oh, where is she?"

Xingge asked curiously.

"As soon as she entered the school gate, she was attracted by the snack stalls and couldn't move. After she finished eating, she insisted that I pay for her..."

Hoshikawa Taku complained helplessly, "She obviously has money, but she insisted that it was for wine money and asked me to treat her. I'm really fed up with her shamelessness..."

"That's just her personality. You can't spoil her, otherwise she'll get ahead of you."

Ijichi Hoshige was also merciless when evaluating this junior.

Although Hiroi is very talented in acting, other than that, she is a complete rubbish.

Listening to Hoshikawa Taku talking about Hiroi's affairs, Ichichi Xingge's heart moved, and she asked casually: "Hoshikawa, you and Hiroi have suddenly become so familiar with each other, are you two boyfriend and girlfriend now?"

This is something that Yidizhi Xingge has to pay attention to.

She is now almost 30 years old, but has never been in a relationship. Does this mean that her junior Hiroi Kikuri already has a boyfriend before her?

Why would Ichichi Xingge suddenly ask this?

Taku Hoshikawa thought for a few seconds, shook his head and decisively rejected it.

"No, Hiroki and I are not in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, and we can't be now. Unless she quits drinking, I can't stand her lifestyle at all."

When Taku Hoshikawa rejected the proposal, he also left himself some room, so that if he really started dating Hiroi one day, he would have something to say.

Ijichi Xingge had no idea what Hoshikawa Taku was thinking. When she heard that they were not boyfriend and girlfriend, she breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.

Don’t be afraid of not being single, just be afraid that your friends will be single before you.

If a guy with a bad personality like Hiroi could have a boyfriend, then her sense of crisis would really be maximized.

"Xingge, do you have a boyfriend?"

Hoshikawa Takuya asked.

"I haven't either..."

When this was mentioned, Ichichi Xingge almost sighed.

"I've been so busy taking care of Hongxia these past few years that I haven't had time for a relationship. I thought it was still early, but before I knew it, I'm almost thirty..."

When Ichichi Xingge was worried, he finally subconsciously told her age.

"thirty?"

It was clearly a slip of the tongue, but she glared at Hoshikawa Taku in anger and said, "Yeah, I'm almost thirty. After my birthday this year, I'll be twenty-nine!"

Now that she had said it, she stopped pretending and said in a self-deprecating tone, "I'm already an old woman in the marriage market now. I feel like it's hard for me to find the right person to date..."

Although she doesn't usually show it, Ijichi Xingge has always been anxious about her age, and whenever she thinks about her age, she drinks to relieve her worries.

Hoshikawa Taku suppressed his laughter and consoled her, "29 is still very young. Don't you see on TV that many heroines of this age end up with wealthy bosses and younger men?"

Yidizhi Xingge snorted coldly, her tone full of sarcasm: "How can we be young! Those TV shows are just to satisfy the fantasies of women our age, to make them spend more money on clothes and makeup, to make them dress up and spend more money!"

"This is all a conspiracy by the government propaganda department!"

"Actually, men like girls who are 17 or 18 years old, young and energetic, right? You're the same, right?"

Hoshikawa Taku didn't expect that Ijichi Hoshige was complaining when the topic suddenly turned to himself.

He coughed lightly and quickly clarified, "I don't have any particular requirements regarding age. I'm open to any girl, whether she's a few years younger than me or a few years older than me. What's important is whether we get along well with each other!"

Taku Hoshikawa meant what he said, he didn't care about age.

Not to mention being just a few years older, even if they are ten years older or more than a thousand years older, as long as they look young and meet his aesthetic standards, they are within his acceptable range.

In his opinion, Ichichi Xingge is now the most suitable candidate for a wife he has ever seen.

She has a mature body, the gentleness of an older sister, and the shyness of a young girl.

What Hoshikawa Taku said to Iwashita Shima at that time was not false. If Ijichi Hoshika could be his girlfriend, he would be willing to do it even if his girlfriend worked outside and he was idle all day and had affairs with other women!

However, Hoshikawa Takuya knew that this was just his own thought. After all, he and Ijichi Hoshige had not known each other for too long, and they had no dates or contacts other than work.
