Living in Tokyo, starting with a lifestyle-related job

However, she didn't rush to sleep today. Instead, she opened her phone and clicked on the class group chat.

Mizuno Maki looked at the class group chat and remained silent for a long time.

She scrolled through the chat history slightly.

Suddenly, it was discovered that someone had uploaded a video of Kamishiro catching the ball and saving someone.

Maki Mizuno clicked on the link, and seeing that familiar face, her dormant heart began to beat again.

But when she realized something was wrong with her, she immediately pressed the screen-off button and put her phone away to charge.

Then she pulled the blanket over her delicate face, which was already flushed with tears.

Even though I covered myself with a blanket.

She couldn't fall asleep immediately either.

Instead, he was thinking about something.

So, Kamishiro-kun and that girl are siblings.

No wonder that girl is so pretty.

He should be home by now, asleep like me.

No, why am I thinking about these things?

She clearly doesn't like Kamishiro-kun and has already rejected him.

Why am I still thinking about him?

By the way, I was just thinking about how to repay Kamishiro-kun for helping me increase my hourly wage.

Yes, it is like that!

After coming up with a legitimate reason for herself, Mizuno Maki began to toss and turn in bed, still lost in her own thoughts.

And without her noticing, she slowly drifted into a deep sleep.

She didn't even realize that while she was asleep today, a small, unexpected hint of joy appeared on her usually aloof face.

Let's go back a little bit.

The Mercedes sped along the road.

It quickly overtook the white car in front of it.

Nagasawa Yui, without turning her head, stared at the road ahead and asked curiously:

"Have you used up the one million yen I gave you last time?"

Sitting in the passenger seat of the Mercedes, Shiro Shiro shook his head and said:

"not yet."

Yui Nagasawa explained, "Actually, you don't have to be so frugal. Even if you run out of money, it's okay. If you need more money for cooking, you can tell me."

"No need, I have enough to spend now." After refusing, Shiro Shiro asked, "But didn't you say you didn't support me cooking? Why are you giving me money?"

Yui Nagasawa blushed, not daring to say that she was worried Bai Feng wouldn't have enough money to buy ingredients, which would prevent her from eating there.

"Ahem, I'm just worried you'll get into trouble for trying to save money."

"After all, when it comes to ingredients, you should buy the best ones. Otherwise, if you buy inferior products to save money, it's not good to get an upset stomach."

"The better the ingredients, the tastier the dishes will be, and the more repeat customers will come."

In short, I just really hope you succeed!

"Hehe, you better be." Kamishiro Shiro was amused. "But don't worry, I'm not some heartless boss. As for the ingredients, I always buy fresh ones. After all, if I make a big star sick, I don't have the money to pay for it."

"Hmph, it seems you know a lot, Kamishiro-kun!" Nagasawa Yui smiled with satisfaction.

The two then chatted for a while longer.

The Mercedes slowly drove up to the front of the house of Shiro Kaede.

Yui Nagasawa peered through the car window at his house:

"Wow, Kamishiro-kun's house is surprisingly big."

"It's just an old house." Shiro Shiro unbuckled his seatbelt, slowly got out of the car, then looked down at her and thanked her, "Thanks, remember to be careful on your way back."

"I already told you, don't thank me." Nagasawa Yui pouted, looking a little unhappy. She looked at the dimly lit house and suddenly said, "Also, I'm already downstairs at your place, aren't you going to invite me in for a drink of water?"

Yui Nagasawa suddenly suggested:

"I'm already downstairs at your place, won't you invite me in for a drink of water?"

Shiro Kaede hesitated for a moment, but did not refuse, and agreed:

"Of course."

"I remember there's another parking space in the back, you can park there."

When Yui Nagasawa heard that Bai Feng had actually agreed, her face flushed slightly, and her heart began to race.

A feeling of regret crept into her mind, and she suddenly felt a little timid, no longer daring to go into Kamishiro-kun's house.

After all, she had just said something offhand.

I thought Kamishiro-kun would complain about me as usual and urge me to hurry up and go.

But to my complete surprise, Kamishiro-kun decided to let her into the house without even thinking about it.

Doesn't this guy know that inviting a girl home alone so late is a very serious matter?

However, she really hadn't thought that way just now.

I really just wanted to see Kamishiro-kun's shy expression.

But what should we do now?

Do you want to go in by yourself?

Yui Nagasawa's eyes flickered with regret as she chuckled awkwardly:

"Ha ha.."

"Is Kamishiro-kun's family still at home?"

"Wouldn't going up now disturb them?"

"Or"

Before she could finish speaking, Shiro shook his head and said:

"No way, they're usually still awake at this hour, they're probably all in the living room."

"Ah, they're all in the living room?" Yui Nagasawa panicked even more after hearing that they were all in the living room.

If they're all asleep, I could just go upstairs for a drink of water and then slip back down.

But if they're all in the living room, they'll definitely notice me.

If I just go to get a glass of water and come down, what will they think?

Do you think you're some kind of weirdo?

After all, Kamishiro-kun took him back, and he just ran off to get a drink of water. That's really strange.

Just imagining that scene makes Yui Nagasawa so embarrassed she could practically dig out a three-bedroom apartment with her toes.

But if you asked her to actually go into Kamishiro-kun's room or something, she wouldn't really dare.

Nagasawa Yui, a little timid, coughed and said:

"Oh, I see. Then let's talk about it another time."

"I didn't prepare any gift for our meeting today."

Kamishiro Shirofumi said, both amused and exasperated:

"You're just going up for a glass of water, why do you need a gift?"

"No need to exaggerate, they won't say anything."

"Come up."

"No, no, I'm a polite person, I can't be so ambiguous!" Nagasawa Yui blushed and panicked. "I'll come back next time when I'm better prepared. I'm going home today."

Shirokaze frowned and said, "Didn't you say you were thirsty?"

"I suddenly remembered there was water in the car." Nagasawa Yui quickly took a bottle of water from the car's cabinet and waved it in front of Bai Feng.

"Alright then, be careful on your way back, and don't drive too fast."

"Hmm."

Seeing this, Shiro Shiro closed the door.

Meanwhile, Yui Nagasawa drove away from there at breakneck speed.

Without giving it much thought, Shiro Kaede walked straight back to his home.

"I am back."

"Welcome back."

Erina's little head slowly peeked out from the sofa in the living room, looking at Shiro Kaede on the other side of the door.

Since he hadn't heard his aunt's voice, Shiro Kaede asked curiously:

"Where's your aunt?"

"Is she already asleep in the room?"

Erina Kamishiro extended her slender finger and pointed at Ayaka Sato, who was lying on the ground.
