Tokyo Sick Girlfriend

Chapter 188 Jealousy and Competition (Seeking Monthly Tickets~)

"impossible!"

Hojo Suzune slammed her chopsticks on the table, stood up, and glared at Takahashi Mio with her almond-shaped eyes, like a little tiger.

I was upset to hear her say things like she was not as good as her in terms of figure and that I should ask her for help if I needed anything. But I was in the wrong, so I just had to put up with it.

But don't even think about moving out now.

She's supposed to be Kiyoya's girlfriend, but wasn't their relationship just about money from the start?

That shameless, gold-digging vixen doesn't really like Kiyoya at all. What right does she have to point fingers at him?
Mio Takahashi seemed to be intimidated by her imposing manner, her expression froze, and then she reacted, looking at Seiya Shiratori with teary eyes, pouting and remaining silent.

Seeing her start playing the victim again, Hojo Suzune was afraid that Seiya would actually soften his heart, so she couldn't help but point her finger at her nose and say:

"Stop acting! Why were you so quiet when your sister was around, but now you're putting on an act?!"

Upon hearing this, Mio Takahashi's bright eyes flashed, and she asked in confusion:
"Does your sister also do things like you... casually doing that kind of thing in Kiyoya's house?"

"you!"

Upon hearing Takahashi Mio's question, Shiratori Seiya's heart skipped a beat. Even though neither of them knew about his affair with Shione, he especially didn't want to steer the conversation in that direction. So, he frowned and became serious, saying:

"Alright! How long do you two intend to keep arguing?"

Seemingly sensing from his tone that he was indeed angry, both of them obediently shut their mouths and simultaneously shifted their gaze to him.

Shiratori Seiya rubbed his temples, hesitated for two seconds, and then said:

"I'll change the password. Saori will be back in two weeks. There's no need to go through all this trouble."

He didn't really want Rin to move in either. Although it was indeed quite shocking that she did this in her own home, if she moved in, he wouldn't be able to explain when Saori came back and asked what happened. Lying to Saori was one way, because she would believe whatever he said. But it was precisely because she would believe whatever he said that he didn't want to lie to Saori.

Moreover... Saori still has a wedding dress at home, and it would be difficult to explain when the two of them asked about it during the move.

It'll be another chaotic scene then...

This situation, involving four women, gave Shiratori Seiya a headache just thinking about it; it felt even more torturous than making money.

Hearing that Shiratori Seiya didn't say he wanted to move out on his own, Hojo Suzune breathed a sigh of relief.

It's good that I don't move there. As long as I'm still across from Kiyoya's house, there will be plenty of opportunities...

If all else fails, I can just knock on the door myself.

But if I just give in like this, Mio Takahashi will start making a scene again.

Thinking this, Hojo Suzune bit her lip, raised her watery eyes like a wet puppy, and looked at Seiya with a coquettish tone:

"Kiyo... Rinne knows she was wrong, please don't change the password... What if, what if something happens tonight, Rinne is scared..."

Upon hearing the word 'fear,' Takahashi Mio gave a cold laugh, tilted her head, and gave her a meaningful look, saying:

"Heh, you're scared? Scared of what? Scared of doing that kind of thing at Kiyoya's house again and getting caught by your sister? Or are you scared of Hasegawa Saori finding out? That is, me..."

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again, Shiratori Seiya quickly interjected:
"All right."

Mio Takahashi seemed to fall for his act and immediately shut her mouth.

If you're really obedient, then stop stirring up trouble.

I really don't know if it was intentional.

Shiratori Seiya glanced at her speechlessly, then looked at Rinne and said:
"I'm a light sleeper at night, so I'll turn my phone ringer up to the maximum volume. Just call me if you need anything."

Hearing him say that he was a light sleeper, Hojo Suzune recalled the night she called her sister. If she hadn't called him, her sister would have been on base that night, right?
You didn't wake up even though we were about to do it...

Although they were unable to stop it later, it would be tactless to say anything now.

Hojo Suzune picked up her chopsticks, lowered her head, pouted, and said "Oh." But the thought of her sister having slept with him, while she couldn't even have sex with him at Seiya's house...

She suddenly felt even more wronged, as if her heart had been stung by a bee, feeling sour, itchy, and painful.

My vision suddenly blurred, and then tears dripped onto the table in a "plop plop" sound.

Not wanting to show her vulnerable side in front of outsiders, Hojo Suzune stubbornly turned her head away, leaving only Takahashi Mio with the back of her head, and raised her hand to wipe away the tears from the corner of her eyes.

However, the tears seemed to be deliberately defying her; they kept flowing again as soon as she wiped them away.

Seeing Rin's appearance, Shiratori Seiya felt a little uneasy.

Rin rarely cries.

Not counting the car accident she had, when she was in junior high school, she once went to the beach and scraped her knee but didn't cry. When she was wronged at school, such as someone taking her spot in a violin competition, she didn't cry like a typical little girl. She didn't care about other people's opinions or the 'atmosphere' that most people cared about. She directly confronted the teacher and took back what was rightfully hers without showing any leniency...

She is petite and looks delicate, but she is more stubborn than anyone else at heart.

If Xiyin is the big fox, then Lingyin is the little tiger.

Because he understood her personality, Shiratori Seiya felt even more sorry for her.

He thought for a moment, gave Takahashi Mio a look, stood up, and brought the chopsticks with fish meat to Suzune's lips.

Suddenly, she felt a warm sensation on her lips. Although she couldn't smell anything from crying, Hojo Suzune turned her head and met Shiratori Seiya's gaze.

Shiratori Seiya smiled at her and said gently:

"Whose little kitten is this? Do you want some fish? I know you love fish, so I specially went to my usual place and bought some boiled fish fillets. No chili, no need to rinse..."

Looking at the boy's gentle smile, Hojo Suzune's eyes widened, her cherry lips trembled slightly, the corners of her lips first turned down and then up again.

The tears welled up in her eyes stopped, and her dark, moist eyes sparkled with happiness. She parted her red lips slightly to take in a slice of fish, bit down on the chopsticks with her teeth, and licked the tip of the chopsticks with her little tongue before reluctantly letting go.

She had just cried, and the warm fish slices were tasteless in her mouth, but she felt a sweet joy in her heart.

She didn't actually like boiled fish slices from the beginning; it was just that Shiratori Seiya took her to a Chinese restaurant once when she was in high school.

That was the first time Shiratori Seiya took her out to eat, and also the first time the two of them ate alone. They ordered boiled fish fillets, but Shiratori Seiya ordered spicy ones because he was worried that the restaurant chef wouldn't make them spicy enough. So he specifically told her that he was Chinese and didn't need any extra spice.

He had ordered the food for himself and hadn't intended for Lingyin to eat it. However, seeing how happily he was eating, Lingyin insisted on trying it, and ended up wiping her nose constantly because it was so spicy.

Speaking of which, it looked pretty much the same as it does now...

Whether it was the unforgettable spiciness or something else, Hojo Suzune has been constantly nagging about wanting to eat boiled fish slices ever since. Shione only knows that she likes to eat it, but doesn't know why she likes it...

Seeing Rinne stop crying and start laughing, Shiratori Seiya felt a little relieved. He picked up some food for her while saying:

"Alright, let's eat. Stop crying. What if you hurt yourself by crying?"

"Ok!"

Hojo Suzune nodded emphatically, glanced at Takahashi Mio beside her, and wrinkled her nose with a soft snort.

"Humph!"

【'Mio Takahashi' Affection Level: 89→88】

Mio Takahashi smiled slightly, her expression revealing nothing of her thoughts.

However, she then suddenly stood up and went into the kitchen on her own to get another pair of chopsticks.

She reached out and handed it to Shiratori Seiya, her eyes sparkling with a smile, and said:

"Change your shoes, Kiyoya. I think yours are dirty."
