My wife believes me; how could I be a cuckold?

Looking at the message "Asano-kun, see you tonight" sent by Risa Kanno on the left side of his phone screen, Makoto Asano replied "Okay" and began to think about how to win her over.

Unlike Eriko Miyajima and Yuna Kanno, he and Risa Kanno did not have enough time to spend together, nor could he coerce her in the same way he had coerced her daughter at the beginning.

So after much thought, Makoto Asano decided that she should focus on her husband and daughter.

In any case, at least we should get her to divorce Hiroki Kamino first, right?

Just as Makoto Asano was thinking this and preparing to go back to sleep, his phone suddenly vibrated again.

He didn't think much of it, assuming it was just another message from Risa Kanno.

When he picked up his phone, he found that the person who sent the message was someone else.

However, because the names in the notes were very similar, he almost mistook them.

"You're such a pervert! My mom is going out to dinner with clients tonight."

Yes, the person who sent the message was Yuna Kanno.

Having learned his lesson from almost being discovered by Eriko Miyajima last time, Makoto Asano is much more obedient now and won't make up any random notes.

However, upon seeing Yuna Kanno's somewhat nonsensical words, he almost burst out laughing.

His fingers flew across the phone screen as he replied, "Got it, so what?"

There was no response from the other end of the phone.

However, seeing the "read" notification on his phone, he knew that Yuna Kanno must have seen it.

On the other end of the phone, Yuna Kanno felt conflicted and deeply regretful.

Just after class, she checked her phone as usual and received a message from her mother saying, "I have to have dinner with clients tonight and will be home late, so take care of dinner yourself."

She didn't know what she was thinking, but she impulsively told Asano Makoto the news.

Did I want that pervert to come looking for me?

How could I be so stupid!

If that pervert found out what I was thinking, he would definitely be secretly laughing to himself.

No, maybe he's already figured it out and is secretly laughing!

Thinking of this, Yuna Kanno felt even more regretful, and a flush of heat rose on her face.

As for Makoto Asano's counter-question, she had absolutely no idea how to respond.

【Nothing much, just wanted to let you know. Don't overthink it, you pervert! I didn't mean for you to come over and keep me company!】

Looking at the message that had already been typed into the chat box on her phone, she hesitated for a moment before deleting the last sentence.

After thinking for a while, she shook her head again and deleted all the messages in the chat box.

She still felt that saying it like that was too embarrassing and too direct, and that the other party would definitely see through it.

So after thinking it over, she edited a new message and sent it out.

"It's nothing, I just wanted you to treat me to dinner, is that not allowed?"

Upon seeing this message, Makoto Asano burst out laughing.

He knew perfectly well why the little pet had taken the initiative to contact him this time.

Unfortunately, I have a date tonight, and it's with her mother, so I really don't have time to go see her this time.

Thinking this through, Makoto Asano didn't expose the little pet's idea to tease her. He just made up an excuse and sent it: "I have to have dinner with a client tonight, so I don't have time."

"I'll transfer you some money, go eat by yourself."

After thinking for a moment, Makoto Asano replied with this message, and then transferred some money to the other party's card using his mobile phone.

Not much, only 20,000 yen.

However, after doing so, he suddenly felt a sense of immorality about keeping a female student as a mistress.

I have to say, this feeling is actually quite enjoyable.

Haha, no wonder so many rich people in their past lives liked to keep schoolgirls as mistresses, it must be for that kind of pleasure!

That must be right, isn't it?

Thinking this, Makoto Asano switched his phone back to his chat with Yuna Kanno.

However, this time I waited a long time and still didn't see a reply from Yuna Kanno, even though I had read her message.

Makoto Asano simply shrugged indifferently at this.

He knew that the little pet was probably feeling both relieved and regretful because he had rejected her advances.

However, he didn't say anything more and went back to his room to take a nap.

He woke up in the afternoon and spent the rest of the afternoon playing games, watching anime, and reading novels, occasionally chatting with Lilith and a group of silly netizens he didn't know.

These days felt like a return to his leisurely life before he awakened the system.

However, after 6 p.m., he started working on it again.

Take a shower, tidy yourself up, and make yourself look less sloppy.

After all, this job, which was exclusively his, was about to begin, and he had to make a good impression.

Chapter 115 Mature Charm (1/2)

Following the navigation, Makoto Asano drove for about half an hour before arriving at the restaurant that Risa Kanno had booked.

The restaurant is located not far east of Shinjuku Station, actually in the Shinjuku 3-chome area where Makoto Asano bought his car last time.

Although the distance wasn't far, it was rush hour, so he was stuck in traffic for ages.

Before setting off, he searched for information about the restaurant on his phone.

This is a multi-functional restaurant specializing in French cuisine and steak, with an average cost of around $70 or $80 per person, which is roughly over 10,000 yen.

Logically speaking, someone from a family with similar financial means should be reluctant to eat at a restaurant like this.

It seems Ms. Jinno is a rather generous person? Or is she simply more concerned with saving face?

Makoto Asano didn't dwell on the issue too much.

After parking his car in the underground garage, he went up to the seventh floor of the office building, found the restaurant, and then, led by a waiter, went to the table that Risa Kanno had reserved.

However, before he even got there, he noticed Risa Kamino with her long black hair tied up.

Her face was adorned with exquisite makeup, and her mature and charming figure was dressed in a relatively conservative black dress, making her look elegant and dignified.

Perhaps it was because of her voluptuous figure, but even though the long dress she was wearing was loose and conservative, Makoto Asano still felt that the outfit made her look a little timid.

Of course, it's also possible that someone who is insecure inside will see everything as insecure.

In short, because she was so beautiful and eye-catching, Makoto Asano spotted Risa Kanno sitting in the corner at a glance.

However, it was precisely because of her somewhat conspicuous outfit that she seemed a little out of place in the restaurant.

The people sitting around her, including Makoto Asano, were almost all dressed in very casual everyday clothes, while she was the only one dressed as if she were attending a banquet.

Right now, quite a few people are secretly watching her from the side, and then turning to whisper something to their companions who are eating with her.

Perhaps because his physical attribute has been raised to 7, Makoto Asano's hearing is now quite good, and he has even overheard some conversations.

It's usually something like "So pretty," "So beautiful," or "I'd like to get to know you."

Risa Kanno herself must have realized this, as her slightly lowered head, the nervous expression on her face, and her slightly blushing cheeks clearly showed her current state of mind.

Actually, Risa Kanno regretted it as soon as she entered the restaurant.

Because she had never eaten at a restaurant like this before, her impression of Western restaurants was based on the movies, TV shows, and comics she had watched in the past.

This led her to believe that almost everyone who ate there was dressed in a suit and tie, looking more and more elegant than the last.

Therefore, after deciding to invite Makoto Asano to dinner last night, she even dug out this dress that she hadn't worn in a long time from her closet.

This is her best piece of clothing.

On the other side, after asking the waiter to leave, Makoto Asano stood there quietly for a while, then walked straight toward Risa Kanno.

Amidst the constant whispers of "warrior," "awesome," and "keep it up," Makoto Asano sat down directly opposite Risa Kanno.

Noticing the commotion, Risa Kanno subconsciously looked up and saw Makoto Asano's familiar face.

She paused for a moment, then a relieved expression appeared on her face.

From that moment on, the voices in Asano Makoto's ears began to change.

"Shit!" "Lucky brat!" "Is it really that easy?" "I should have gone for it!" "It must be someone I know, right?"

Ignoring the voices of impotent rage—whether from jealousy or rationality—Asano Makoto smiled and greeted Kanno Risa with a smile: "Good evening, Aunt Kanno."

Good evening, Asano-kun.

It was clear that even though the presence of acquaintances made her slightly more relaxed, Risa Kanno was still very nervous.

After exchanging greetings, it took her two seconds before she seemed to suddenly realize something and handed the menu to Makoto Asano, then beckoned to the waiter: "You must be hungry, right? Let's order first."

Makoto Asano didn't stand on ceremony and simply nodded to accept the menu.

He opened the menu and flipped through it casually, but didn't find anything he particularly liked.

Although he ate many of these things out of curiosity after becoming rich, things he had little chance to eat in his previous life, he didn't actually like Western food very much.

Compared to Western food that is ridiculously expensive because of its exquisite appearance or high-end ingredients, but whose taste is only slightly better, he prefers fast food and ramen that cost less than 1000 yen.

So after casually ordering two appetizers and a steak as a main course, he handed the menu back to Risa Kanno.

Seeing that he hadn't ordered anything expensive and had only spent less than 10,000 yen, Risa Kanno visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

After some deliberation, she gritted her teeth and ordered a standard set meal from the waiter.

It's not the most expensive, but it's not the cheapest either; the price is around 9000 yen.

Makoto Asano, who had been observing her, finally understood the answer to the question that had been on his mind before he came, and nodded as if he had a sudden realization.

After ordering, a long wait ensued.
