With her beautiful figure, she wore a mature-style halter-neck lace-trimmed satin jacket, paired with a pure black bodycon skirt that accentuated her curves. Her fair shoulders, radiating a delicate pink glow, were faintly visible beneath the thick, pure white fleece jacket.
The moment he saw the other person, Kazami's expression turned strange.
"Miss Meow Dream, don't you feel cold?"
It's now the twelfth lunar month, approaching the harsh winter.
Even in this season, the legendary creature 'high school girl' still wears short skirts and sailor uniforms, showing off her smooth, snow-white long legs; it's hard to imagine how Meow Dream can endure wearing such a slightly revealing outfit and only relying on a snow-white fur coat for warmth.
"Hmph~ So Naruko is still just a complete kid~"
"For mature adults, outward appearance is a higher priority."
Yutenji Wakana reached out and gently pulled down her brown sunglasses, which covered half of her face, revealing her beautiful, crystal-clear eyes, like pink diamonds. Her already excellent natural features, combined with her perfectly applied makeup, showcased her mature charm.
Even from a great distance, Ke Jianming could see the faint hint of mockery in her eyes.
It was as if a wildcat was toying with its prey, gently licking its gleaming claws before striking.
"That's true, I am indeed just a child."
Kazami Mei simply rolled her eyes, having no intention of refuting the other party at all.
"What's Miss Meowmu doing in Ikebukuro today? Is she here to film some video material, or is she just strolling around?"
"It's Meow Dream Kiss!"
Yutenji Wakana seemed quite bothered by the issue of 'address'; her face, which had been all smiles just moments before, immediately puffed out her cheeks in dissatisfaction.
Her deliberately cute act was indeed quite adorable, but it had no deterrent effect on Mr. Kazami at the moment.
"Okay, okay~ Meow Dream."
His perfunctory attitude made Yutenji Wakana raise an eyebrow slightly, making her suddenly feel like she was the child who had just been casually dealt with.
But thinking about it carefully—
Although the guy in front of me is physically old, his personality and way of handling things are completely unlike that of a sixteen-year-old high school student. Not only that, even I, as an 'adult,' have no experience in love, while this guy's relationships are a mess.
Putting aside the strange thoughts in her mind for the time being, Yutenji Wakana gently clasped her hands together, a sweet smile returning to her face.
"Actually, MeowDream isn't here to shoot video footage today; she's just wandering around Ikebukuro! But as a great blogger, if she sees suitable footage, she has to seize the opportunity immediately~ So MeowDream is planning to check out a few shops later~"
At this point, Yutenji Wakana glanced at him almost imperceptibly, but this seemingly casual look was extremely noticeable to Kazami Mei.
"Let me make this clear first, I'm planning to go home for dinner tonight."
As expected, upon hearing these words from Kazami Naruto, Yutenji Wakana's face immediately showed a hint of disappointment and loneliness. She quickly stepped forward and spoke in a pitiful tone—
"Huh?! Naruko and I are good friends, right? Most importantly, we're bandmates!"
"We ate together last time, so why does Naruko insist on going home to eat by herself today?"
咱?
Upon hearing this strange dialect, a strange light flashed in Kazami Mei's eyes.
Perhaps Yutenji Wakana herself noticed this unintentional 'loophole', for a moment's hesitation flashed across her face, but she quickly regained her pitiful expression, placing her hands together earnestly in a pleading manner—
"Hey~ I'll have Miaomeng treat you to dinner this time~ Please have dinner with me, okay?"
When faced with a request like a cat's dream, most men, even if they verbally refuse, will eventually agree despite their reluctance.
However, Kazami's inner defenses had long been toughened up by his girlfriend to the point of being practically made of steel, and this level of cuteness and pitifulness couldn't move him in the slightest.
Kazami Mei rolled her eyes and replied with a meaningful tone, "I have a reason for going home for dinner. If you insist on eating with me, then you'll probably have to come home with me tonight."
How could he not see what this woman was thinking?
No matter how hard Miaomeng Teacher tries now, she's just a beauty blogger with some fame. Even if she includes drum practice videos, it won't attract much traffic. Her follower count and popularity have already reached a saturation point for her as a blogger.
Not only did its popularity fail to rise, it actually started to decline little by little.
But no matter when, the so-called 'ambiguity' always has an exaggerated attraction.
The last 'store visit' video generated unprecedented popularity and a huge number of views.
The reason for this outcome is that Miaomeng intentionally or unintentionally implied to the audience that she was not eating alone. This perfect combination of attracting traffic and hype naturally allowed this beautiful blogger to gain a lot of attention.
A single video brought her immense popularity, but the subsequent sudden drop in "normal traffic" made her feel like she had been crashed to the ground, a shock that was hard for Yutenji Wakana to accept.
She naturally longed to go further.
"Will you accompany Naruko home?"
Yutenji Wakana's expression was slightly strange. She hadn't expected Kazami Naru to invite her home so naturally. Although their relationship had indeed improved a lot since the last time she was 'greedy', she thought they were just ordinary friends at most.
Does this mean I'll have to go to his house and have dinner alone with him?
However, Yutenji Wakana did not immediately refuse, and even her idea of brushing it off came to a halt, because she knew that she really wanted to take advantage of Kazami Mei. His outstanding abilities and 'fair' face were extremely rare.
Just hinting that someone is having dinner with you generates this much buzz, so what about revealing that the other person is male? Or revealing that they are a genius composer? Or revealing their succubus-like true face, with a little ambiguity, could generate a terrifying amount of buzz, and even create a 'couple' pairing to portray them as a model couple?
The scope for maneuver was simply too vast, making it extremely difficult for Yutenji Wakami to relinquish it.
"Inviting a girl home alone, is Naruko planning to hit on me?"
Yutenji Wakame's lips curled into a beautiful smile as she playfully teased the other person.
But Kazami Mei just shrugged and said in a somewhat subtle tone, "Actually, what I just said was just a joke, but I really do have to go home for dinner today."
With his lovely fiancée waiting at home, Kazami Mei naturally couldn't abandon the little wooden boy.
Upon seeing this, a strange glint flashed in Yutenji Wakana's eyes, and she spoke in a deliberately coy tone: "Eh! But Nyanmu-chan was originally planning to have a good talk with Naruko about the band today~ AveMujica has also had quite a few problems lately."
It was precisely because he understood how much Kazami Mei valued Ave Mujica and every part of the band that Yutenji Wakana deliberately seized on this point to blackmail him; he certainly wouldn't turn a blind eye to the band's problems.
Of course, Yutenji Wakami wasn't lying.
"Is it about Xiangzi?"
"...Sometimes, being too perceptive can make girls dislike you, right?"
Yutenji Wakame puffed out her cheeks slightly, then spoke slowly and deliberately: "Naruko probably knows too, right? Mujica's performance was really successful~ They might become the fastest band to reach the Budokan after their debut, isn't that amazing?"
"What's the fastest way to get to the Budokan?"
Kazami Mei narrowed his dark eyes meaningfully, naturally acknowledging Yutenji Wakana's statement.
They made headlines and topped the trending charts right from their debut, and within a few months they will be qualified to perform at the Budokan. Every member of the band has the skill to match, and in everyone's eyes, Mujica is an extremely powerful band.
Seeing Kazami Mei nod in agreement, a faint smile gradually appeared on Yutenji Wakana's face.
"Hey Naruko, when do you think we should reveal our true selves to the public?"
Kazami Mei raised an eyebrow, choosing not to answer directly but instead asking, "Why would you suddenly ask that?"
Seeing that she couldn't get any opinions on the 'stance' out of the black-haired boy, Yutenji Wakana, who was secretly amazed, narrowed her eyes and said in a light and lively tone, "Because you think it's about time, right?"
"We're the number one trending band right now. If we can take advantage of this current popularity to reveal our true selves, maybe we can become an even more amazing band in one fell swoop? We might even be able to perform on the 'Red and White Song Battle'!"
As Kazami Mei looked at the smile on Yutenji Wakana's face, he gradually recalled Shoko's expression at that time.
On the surface, he merely nodded thoughtfully, then spoke seriously: "Has Miaomeng discussed this matter with Xiangzi? As the team leader, she should know when it's most appropriate to reveal her true identity, right?"
"Of course I've done that before, but—"
Yutenji Wakana blinked with a smile, then deliberately feigned exhaustion and complained, "Nyanmu-chan has been standing here with Naruko for ages, and we haven't even had dinner. We're so cold and hungry~"
Kazami Mei's lips twitched.
"I absolutely have to go home for dinner, but there's still some time before dinner... If you don't mind, how about we find a coffee shop nearby to continue our chat?"
"Great!"
Yutenji Wakame secretly made a peace sign, and the smile on her face became even more obvious.

Chapter Ninety-Four: I Want to Be a Meow High!
Kazami Mei wasn't sure if this woman had planned this all along, or if she had simply settled for second best after hearing him say "we can't have dinner together."
As if she had known the exact location of the café beforehand, she led him to BLUEBOTTLE in the Ikebukuro shopping street in the blink of an eye.
This is a popular cafe located in the bustling city center. Even as dusk approaches, it's still filled with customers of all ages. Its simple yet trendy style makes it a must-visit for social media influencers.
It's not surprising that Miaomeng, a blogger, chose this place.
However, for Kazami Mei, who prefers quiet and seclusion, this fashionable atmosphere is somewhat out of place.
"How about it? Isn't the place MeowDream personally chose great? This cafe is super popular online right now!"
"Most importantly, this store also has private booths, so Miaomeng doesn't have to dress so warmly."
As she spoke, Yutenji Wakana slowly removed the straw hat with ribbons from her head, letting her light purple hair, which looked as airy as spring under the warm light, spread out. After taking off her sunglasses, her beautiful face was naturally revealed, and her delicate, snow-white skin seemed to shimmer with a moist glow.
Even when wearing sunglasses and a straw hat, she meticulously combs every strand of her hair, and her light yet exquisite makeup seems to be a pre-planned appearance for her moment of debut.
Is this to prevent being recognized, so they cover their appearance and put on makeup beforehand?
Kazami Mei noticed this and raised her eyebrows meaningfully, but wisely refrained from saying it aloud.
"Dear Miaomeng, I want to drink Blue Mountain coffee."
"...Naruko, are you planning to make me, Nyanko, pay the bill?"
Teacher Da Miao, whose eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, was clearly stunned for a few seconds upon hearing those words.
Kazami Mei seemed to have anticipated her response, and said in a casual and matter-of-fact tone, "Didn't Meow-chan just say she'd rather treat me to a meal? Well, drinking coffee is pretty much the same thing, isn't it?"
"Hey! But in situations like this, it's usually the boys who offer to pay, right?"
"Don't make baseless accusations. I'm a complete kid. As the 'big sister,' would Teacher Miao let a child pay the bill?"
Instead, Kazami Mei looked at Yutenji Wakana with a questioning gaze, and that look of looking at a 'weirdo' gave Nyanmu the illusion that the other person was the one who was right.
For Kazami Mei, "being rich" and "spending money recklessly" are two different concepts.
"Meow—"
"Okay, I'll go pay the bill!"
Feeling inexplicably unwilling, Yutenji Wakame pouted, but in the end, she had no choice but to take out Fukuzawa Yukichi from her wallet.
When the two steaming cups of Blue Mountain coffee were gently placed in front of them, Yutenji Wakana, sitting opposite them, finally showed her cute smile again and stretched out her right hand in a cat paw gesture.
"Speaking of which, Miaomeng has never been to this BLUE BOTTLE before, so this is a good opportunity to film a store visit video!"
Kazami Mei simply reached out, picked up the steaming hot Blue Mountain coffee, and took a small sip. A balanced fruity aroma and a slight sourness passed over his tongue. He watched expressionlessly as the cat across from him, Nyanko, maliciously acted cute and said "Goodnight Nyanko" into the phone.
It has to be said that this kind of cute behavior does have a market.
"Phew, that should solve the problem."
She finally smiled with satisfaction after filming the same scene several times. Then she picked up the slightly cooled coffee and took a sip. At that moment, she noticed Kazami Mei sitting silently across from her, and a meaningful thought crossed her mind.
After a moment, she spoke with a slight smile—
"I thought Naruko would say something like 'Don't record me' like last time, but surprisingly she didn't say anything today?"
Since she wouldn't do it anyway, Kazami Mei was too lazy to emphasize it to her properly.
Moreover, Kazami Mei and Nyanmu-sensei are indeed friends, so helping to record a video is really nothing to him.
"In fact, Miaomeng didn't record me, did she?"
"Hmph~ Of course!"
Yutenji Wakame deliberately put her hands on her hips, revealing a smug and cute expression.
It has to be said that her mature figure, resembling that of a female college student, combined with her deliberately cute and childlike personality, always creates a strange sense of contrast. After spending a little more time with her, you'll find that this woman is actually quite interesting.
However, Kazami Mei was of course aware of how much truth and how much falsehood was in Nyanmu-sensei's words.
It was indeed 'sensible' of her not to include Kazami Naru in the shot, but she intentionally or unintentionally flashed a 'coffee cup' at the edge of the frame. If viewers look closely, they can immediately discover that she was not alone while exploring the coffee shop.
"Ah—sorry, sorry! I was so engrossed in filming that I almost forgot about Naruko's question earlier!"
"At the time, Naruko asked me if I had discussed this with Shoko, right? Of course, Meowme had already discussed this with Shoko~ But no matter what I said... she still opposes it, which I find very puzzling and strange."
Yutenji Wakana feigned a troubled expression as she lifted her smooth, delicate chin, while secretly glancing at Kazami Mei's expression out of the corner of her eye.
She discovered that the handsome, black-haired boy had maintained a composed demeanor throughout, and a hint of disappointment inevitably flashed through her mind.
"Ave Mujica is currently riding a wave of popularity. If they could drop another bombshell while everyone's in the spotlight—"
