Didn’t you say you were just using me as a substitute?

He finally understood why the heroines in action movies kept silent.

I have so much pain that I can’t express it in words.

Kitahara Takashi originally thought those films were otaku fantasies, but he didn't expect them to be realistic?

But if possible, he wished he was the one who said such words.

Kashiwagi Nagisa shifted her gaze to Shijo Maki: "Maki, is this okay?"

I didn’t know before that Kashiwagi Nagisa liked Shijo Mana.

Now that I know that Kashiwagi Nagisa might be a lily, looking closely, the more I look at Kitahara Takashi, the more I feel that her eyes seem to be almost thread-like.

"I'll listen to you."

Although she was afraid, Shijo Shinki didn't want to lose face in front of outsiders.

As the daughter of the Shijo family, how can she be afraid of ghosts in the future of the country?

So she threw the problem to Kitahara Tsuyoshi.

She believed that given the level of understanding between her and Watanabe Takashi, he would definitely not agree.

When Shijo Shinki was confident that Kitahara Takashi would definitely refuse for her, unexpectedly—

Kitahara Takashi: "Okay."

Shijo Maki: “???”

Shijo Shinki widened her eyes in disbelief and stared at Kitahara Tsutomu.

Her expression now was the same as that of Tohsaka Tokitoki before his death. She seemed unable to believe that the person she had always trusted would one day stab her in the back.

'Your Excellency, why?'

Shijo Shinki didn't move her mouth, but her accusing look seemed to say it all.

"I'm sorry, Mami."

Kitahara Takashi avoided the sight of Shijo Shinki.

He didn't want to either.

Please forgive me, Zhenfei, this is the last time!

At this moment, Kitahara Tsutomu suddenly felt a strong sympathy for Uchiha Itachi.

"Let's go then."

Kashiwagi Nagisa immediately stood up and urged everyone on.

Tanuma Tsubasa was the first to respond and stood up.

"I haven't had my cappuccino yet." Kitahara Takashi still wanted to delay time.

"Next time I'll treat you, Watanabe-kun~"

When Kitahara Tsutomu heard this, he didn't care whether it was hot or not, he drank it all in one gulp and wiped his mouth: "That's totally unnecessary!"

Now he just wanted to stay as far away from this woman as possible and didn't want to have any involvement with her at all.

If you can avoid meeting, then don’t meet.

Kashiwagi Nagisa understood and narrowed her eyes, which made Kitahara Takashi feel a chill and goose bumps all over his body.

"Let's go."

Only when Kitahara Takashi's scalp was numbed did Kashiwagi Nagisa withdraw his gaze, smiled, took the arm of Shijo Shinki, who looked like she had lost all hope in life, and walked away first.

The two women walked in front, while Kitahara Takanori and Tanuma Tsubasa walked behind.

Walking alone together, Tanuma Tsubasa seemed to have not forgotten Kitahara Takashi's joke and spoke again: "Watanabe-kun, I think we really need to go to the hospital for a blood test. I think there is a high possibility that we are brothers."

"It's a big deal!"

A group of four people walked to the haunted house with a lot of noise.

Kitahara Tsuyoshi looked up and saw the haunted house called "House of Horrors". He suddenly wanted to turn around and leave.

This boss’s surname shouldn’t be Chen, right?

90. Why you again? (Please vote)

When he pushed open the door of the haunted house, the cool air that hit him almost instantly dispelled the heat from Kitahara Tsutomu's body.

The temperature in the haunted house is very low.

It was so low that when Kitahara Tsutomu walked in, he couldn't help but shiver, and every hair on his body stood up.

He felt like pork being put into the freezer.

"It's so cold."

It seemed that not only Beiyuan Zun felt cold, but even the four real concubines shivered from the cold.

When Kitahara Tsuyoshi heard this, he almost instinctively wanted to take off his coat and put it on her.

Eriri had always been in poor health since she was little, often catching a cold or fever, and taking a leave of absence almost every month. Therefore, when she was a student at Shimamura Junior High School, she was nicknamed "Shimamura Junior High School Jade Girl."

As she grew older, her health wasn't as bad, but she still felt cold and afraid of the cold. She was one of those people who couldn't stand the air conditioning in the summer.

The coat that Kitahara Tada wears in the summer was prepared for her.

Every time she says she is cold, if Kitahara Takashi doesn’t put his coat on her immediately, she will probably get upset again.

It can be said that Shijo Maki's words "It's so cold!" triggered Kitahara Tsutomu's passive ability.

Fortunately, Kitahara Tsutomu reacted in time and stopped immediately.

Shijo Mane is Shijo Mane, and Eriri is Eriri. Their situations are different.

Moreover, Shijo Shinki's sweetheart, Tanuma Tsubasa, is right here. What would Tanuma Tsubasa think if he did this?

What if people mistakenly think that he and Shijo Shinki are a couple?

Aren't you just making things worse?

Thinking of this, Kitahara Tsutomu immediately put his clothes back on.

"Welcome to the house of horrors."

The four of them came to the front desk, and they were greeted by none other than Nanami Aoyama.

'Why you again?'

This is already the second time.

Tokyo is so small, and he has already run into her on two dates in a row.

"How many jobs have you been working behind my back?"

Kitahara Takashi was actually very curious about how she managed to work two jobs while working only six hours a day at her own place.

Aren't there 24 hours in a day?

Why does he feel that Nanami Aoyama has more than 30 hours in a day?

Compared with Nanami Aoyama, Kitahara Takashi felt that he was a shitty time management master.

'Strange, why is he staring at me? Have we met somewhere before?'

Because she was wearing makeup, Nanami Aoyama noticed that Kitahara Takashi was staring at her, but she didn't recognize him.

Nanami thought Kitahara Takashi was a little strange, but she worked several jobs every day and met many strange customers, so she didn't care.

"Give us four tickets."

Tanuma Tsubasa took the initiative to buy four tickets.

"Four, huh? Here."

Nanami Aoyama quickly handed over the ticket.

When Tanuma Tsubasa came back, the three of them gave him the money.

Forget about Kitahara Takashi and Shijo Shinki, but Tanuma Tsubasa felt that Kashiwagi Nagisa was his girlfriend and he didn't want to marry her.

But Kashiwagi Nagisa insisted on giving it and was firm in his attitude, so Tanuma Tsubasa had no choice but to accept it.

"Guest, before we start, I suggest you go to the toilet first. Our haunted house is very scary." Nanami Aoyama kindly reminded.

"Many tourists were so frightened that they became incontinent during the tour."

Kitahara Takashi and Shijo Shinki looked at each other, asked where the toilet was, and went there together.

Kitahara Tsutomu was the first to finish his work. He did not leave immediately, but waited at the sink for Shijo Shinki to come out.

After waiting for about five or six minutes, Shijo Shinki finally came out.

"Zun, what's wrong with you? Why didn't you refuse?" "Mahiru, why was Tanuma Tsubasa's girlfriend present on your date?"

Without anyone else around, the two of them started blaming each other as soon as they met.

After saying this, Kitahara Takashi and Shijo Shinki were stunned at the same time.

Then, they both said in unison: "It's because..."

Perhaps they didn't expect the other person to be so in sync with them, they stared at each other, as if waiting for the other to speak first, but strangely, no one spoke.

"I'll go first."

Seeing that the other party was about to speak again, Kitahara Takashi raised his hand first, just like an elementary school student raising his hand to answer a question, causing Shijo Shinki to close her mouth again after it had just opened.

"I think if a man and a woman go to a haunted house together, the atmosphere will definitely be great!"

Kitahara Takashi knew that Shijo Shinki would ask.

He had already thought of his words.

The four concubines raised their eyebrows, said nothing, and gestured for him to elaborate.

"If it's a haunted house, it must be dark inside, right?"

"It was pitch black, and because they were so scared, they accidentally held hands and even hugged each other. This is reasonable, right?"

"Even if Miss Kashiwagi saw it, she couldn't blame you for anything."

"I will be responsible for leading Miss Kashiwagi away when the time comes. As for the rest, you know what to do, right, Zhenfei?"

The scene described by Kitahara Takashi was too beautiful, and Shijo Shinki was already imagining it was beautiful.

The corners of her mouth that unconsciously turned up were harder to suppress than an AK on the battlefield.

However, Shijo Zhenfei reacted, she crossed her arms again, turned her head away proudly: "Humph! You make me look like I'm afraid of ghosts, I'm a dignified" "Zhenfei!"

Without waiting for Shijo Shinki to finish her words, Kitahara Tsutomu imitated Uchiha Itachi and tapped her forehead hard with his finger.

"what!"

Shijo Zhenfei rubbed her forehead and glared at him in dissatisfaction.

"You, it's because you're so hesitant that the person you like gets snatched away from you."

"Love is something you earn, not wait for."

Shijo Shinki retorted quietly, "How can a girl take the initiative?"

"Why can't girls take the initiative?"

Really, I don’t know when it started, but all the voices are telling girls that taking the initiative will make them lose value.

Girls should be more reserved and wait for boys to take the initiative.

"When it comes to love, sooner or later someone will take the initiative to bow their head."

"There's no shame in expressing your love bravely."

“To meet someone you like or to buy something you like, you must run.”

“If you meet someone you like but don’t take the initiative and just watch them, you’ll get nothing.”

"You like Tanuma Tsubasa so much, how could you bear to hand him over to someone unknown?"

Kitahara Takashi has always believed that it is more regrettable that they didn't end up together than that they had never been together at all.

Because the most painful discomfort in life is never having it, but being almost there.
