Living in Tokyo, starting with a lifestyle-related job

She looked at Mizuno Maki beside her and asked:

"By the way, your name is Mizuno Maki, right?"

Maki Mizuno nodded and said:

"Yes, Nagasawa-senpai."

She knew that Nagasawa Yui was the former student council president of the private Shujin Academy.

Therefore, you must address someone as a senior.

Because Japan has a very high class system.

If a junior speaks disrespectfully to a senior, it can cause a lot of trouble if word gets out.

Yui Nagasawa was quite pleased with her juniors calling her "senpai" and had no intention of making them change their address.

"By the way, I remember you said yesterday that you were going to work for Kamishiro-kun?"

"So you've already resigned from Ichiran Ramen?"

Maki Mizuno nodded politely and said:

"Yes."

"I've already resigned, and I'm working for Kamishiro-kun today."

"Very good, very energetic! I have high hopes for you. Work hard, and when the store makes money, I'll give you a promotion and a raise!" Nagasawa Yui said, making empty promises, and then gently patted her shoulder.

"Okay," Mizuno Maki nodded, but she was still a little embarrassed. There were only three people in the store, and she was just a waitress. What kind of promotion could she expect?

Shiro Shiro pushed open the glass door, turned around and looked at her, complaining, "Alright, Nagasawa-senpai, stop teasing others and come in!"

"Didn't I tell you not to call me Nagasawa-senpai?!" Nagasawa Yui glared angrily at Bai Feng, clearly very unhappy with the way he addressed her.

Shiro Shiro smiled and said, "If Mizuno-san can call me that, why can't I? Besides, I saw that you were quite happy when she called you senpai, weren't you?"

"Kamishiro-kun, you idiot!" Nagasawa Yui looked at Bai Feng unhappily, then angrily walked into the bar and sat down with her arms crossed, clearly sulking.

Mizuno Maki noticed their conversation and also felt something was off.

Isn't their relationship like that of a talent scout looking for potential star candidates?

Why does it feel like there's something off about their relationship?

But maybe I'm overthinking it?

After all, it seems that Kamishiro-kun's attitude towards Nagasawa-senpai is quite ordinary.

Now they even address him as Nagasawa-senpai so politely?

Shiro Shiro looked at the sulking Nagasawa Yui without saying anything, but turned to Mizuno Maki and said:

"Come in, let me explain the opening process to you first."

"But before that, since our work clothes haven't arrived yet, let's wear aprons and work today."

Mizuno Maki nodded, and then, following Bai Feng's suggestion, put on an apron over her school uniform.

Next, Shiro Kaede explained the process of opening a shop to her.

Wiping the table, cooking rice in advance, receiving goods at 4:30, arranging cakes, washing ingredients, and other details are all part of the job.

In fact, the workflow is basically the same as that of Mizuno Maki at Ichiran Ramen.

After all, the essence of the catering industry remains the same, and there won't be much change.

After paying a little attention to some precautions for coffee shops, Maki Mizuno basically knew how to open one.

However, she was more concerned about Nagasawa Yui, who had been sitting at the bar sulking for quite some time.

I just felt that Kamishiro-kun kept talking to me about opening a shop. Didn't he notice that Nagasawa-senpai was angry?

Although it seems to her that she doesn't have a very good relationship with Kamishiro-kun, is it really okay not to try to make up with her now?

However, Shiro Shiro seemed oblivious to Nagasawa Yui's anger and continued dealing with the shop opening matters with Mizuno Maki.

However, it is also because of Mizuno Maki's presence.

Kamishiro Shirakaze saved a lot of time in opening her shop.

You could say that all those trivial little things can be left to Mizuno Maki.

He only needs to focus on the preparation work before cooking.

at this time.

Maki Mizuno was wiping down the booth area.

Meanwhile, Shiro Shiro had already finished the preparatory work.

Only then did he notice Nagasawa Yui, who was sulking and scrolling through her phone.

Kamidai Bai Feng smiled and asked:

What would you like to drink today?

Upon hearing this, Yui Nagasawa paused noticeably, but she didn't look up or reply, continuing to scroll through her phone.

Seeing this, Shiro Shiro didn't ask any more questions, but simply started making some kind of coffee at the coffee machine.

Yui Nagasawa glanced at Bai Feng furtively, expecting him to ask her something else, but instead found him running off to do something else.

Seeing this made her even angrier!

I'm going to ignore this guy all day!

This guy is really infuriating!

I've told him several times before to call me Yui-nee!

He actually called himself Nagasawa-senpai?

We already have such a good relationship, why be so polite?

You know, Mizuno-san and I aren't that close. What's wrong with me letting this junior call me senpai?

Mizuno-san calling himself "senpai" is a perfect way to address someone, isn't it?

But Kamishiro-kun, don't just follow suit and call me that because others seem happy about it!

Really!

What a complete idiot!!!

Although Nagasawa Yui kept swiping the screen, her mind wasn't on her phone at all. Instead, she was constantly fuming and ranting about Kamishiro Hakukaze.

If Shiro Shiro were to look over at this moment, she would definitely see an even angrier expression on her face.

However, at that moment, he actually walked over.

After pushing a cup of coffee in front of Nagasawa Yui, Shiro Shiro left and walked to the shop entrance, seemingly doing nothing.

While Yui Nagasawa was playing on her phone, her mind was on Shiro Kaede, and she noticed what he was doing immediately.

Even though I knew he made coffee for me.

But she hasn't even said what she wants to drink today, and he's already making her coffee like this?

Seriously, can't you ask yourself that question again?

If she makes coffee she doesn't like, she absolutely refuses to compromise or drink it this time!

Yui Nagasawa glared angrily at the coffee, about to say something.

But when her gaze fell on the coffee...

Her delicate, fair face, which had been angry, began to blush visibly, and even if she tried her best to suppress the upward curve of her lips, she couldn't stop them from turning up.

When Yui Nagasawa saw the word 'Yui' on the cappuccino, her anger vanished instantly, replaced by secret joy and a fluttering heart.

Kamishiro-kun is such a fool, an idiot, a complete moron!

Isn't it clear what you should call yourself?

That was definitely intentional!

This is so infuriating!

Although Yui Nagasawa thought this way, the smile on her face proved that she was very happy.

at this time.

Shiro Shiro carried the TV and PS4 cases from outside in and said to Nagasawa Yui standing next to her:

"I'll take these two up."

Yui Nagasawa gave a soft snort:

"Take it if you like!"

"Why are you asking me?"

"Oh, so the mute can finally speak?" Kamishiro Hakufeng couldn't help but chuckle.

"You're the one who's mute!" Yui Nagasawa turned around and retorted, feeling a mix of embarrassment, anger, annoyance, and amusement, thinking to herself that this guy was really annoying!

Shiro Kaede thought that there was still some time before the store officially opened at five o'clock, so he planned to carry the two suitcases up to the third floor to put them away.

"Then I'll take these two boxes upstairs first, and you guys watch the shop for me."

"Hmm." Mizuno Maki, who was wiping the table, nodded and then continued working.

Yui Nagasawa knew that the TV was a bit big, and thought that although Kamishiro-kun could carry the TV up by himself, it would be difficult to carry the PS4 box.

It will probably take two trips to get them all up there.

So she stepped forward and helped Shiro Kaede carry the PS4 box: "Let me help you carry it upstairs."

"Okay." Shiro Shiro didn't refuse and started carrying the TV box up to the third floor.

Yui Nagasawa followed closely behind.
