Li Wei led the girl to the parking lot. He put her down, and the two of them looked back. The huge cherry blossom tree on the mountainside emitted a fluorescent glow that could be seen from a distance. Moreover, a large number of cherry blossom petals were scattered everywhere, filling the sky with fluorescent cherry blossom petals.
Sakura Akino said, "Their voices can be heard even from this distance. They're really fanatical."
Li Wei laughed and said, "After all, this is a genuine miracle, not one of those hyped-up things from before. It's normal for the people here to be so enthusiastic."
With his excellent eyesight, Li Wei clearly saw that more and more people were climbing the steps, and that everyone nearby noticed the light emanating from the shrine and was heading towards it.
After this miraculous event, the shrine's incense offerings will become even more abundant. However, since such a miracle was secretly orchestrated by Li Wei, it will never happen again.
Li Wei was, after all, using someone else's property to indulge in romance, so he would let the shrine benefit a little and earn more money from incense offerings.
Sakura breathed a sigh of relief, but just then, her stomach rumbled loudly. A faint blush rose to her cheeks; she hadn't eaten dinner before leaving, so now she was hungry.
Li Wei laughed and said, "It's not embarrassing at all. Everyone gets hungry, and I'm no exception. It's too late to get to a restaurant in the bustling area at this point. Senior, do you have any recommendations for family-run restaurants nearby?"
·Requesting flowers·· ······
Akino Sakura said, "Li Weijun, if you don't mind a regular family restaurant, there are quite a few nice little shops around here."
Li Wei laughed and said, "I would never look down on a family-run shop. Senior, have you seen these two TV series, 'The Solitary Gourmet' and 'Midnight Diner'?"
Akino Sakura looked surprised and said, "I didn't expect you to watch TV dramas, Li Weijun. I thought that someone as busy as you would spend most of your time reviewing the work reports of your subordinates."
Li Wei laughed and said, "These kinds of things are usually done by lower-level managers. I don't usually manage the affairs of those below me directly. Besides, I'm just an ordinary person. I also need entertainment. Watching TV series is a very normal thing for me."
... ... ...
However, Li Wei is quite picky about TV dramas. The number of dramas he can finish watching is not very large. He gives up on most dramas after only a few episodes because he simply can't stand them, especially the various dramas starring popular young idols these days, which he finds nauseating.
Li Wei laughed and said, "I am a very good cook. I usually cook whatever I want to eat. Anyway, I rarely go to so-called Michelin-rated restaurants. Compared to those so-called high-end restaurants, I prefer small family shops on the streets. These small shops are more human and have more of a lively atmosphere."
When eating out, Li Wei isn't the kind of person who simply pursues good taste, and because of his own taste preferences, not all Michelin-starred restaurants can suit his palate.
If a Michelin-starred restaurant is like a jewelry box with all sorts of jewels neatly arranged inside, then the small shops on the streets and alleys are like digging for gold in the mountains. You might not find anything, or you might find a great treasure.
That's why Li Wei loves exploring restaurants, like a solitary gourmet searching for treasures in his own way.
Sakura Akino took Li Wei's hand and smiled, "Although the economy here isn't great, there are many family-run restaurants. If you want to eat delicious, affordable food, you can't go wrong coming here."
Chapter 1. Establishing Relationships
Sakura Akino naturally took Li Wei's hand. Now that the two had established a relationship, Sakura Akino no longer felt uncomfortable doing these intimate things. After all, she wasn't a girl who liked to take the initiative, but in order to keep Li Wei by her side, she overcame her shyness and acted so generously and proactively.
The two stopped at a nearby shopping street. Although the economy in Arakawa Ward is not advanced, the various commercial facilities are very complete. However, compared with the core area, they are a bit old. Moreover, the prices of the goods sold are very down-to-earth, and the cost of living here is much lower than that in the core area.
There were many family-run restaurants on the shopping street. Led by Akino Sakura, Li Wei entered one that looked quite ordinary and enjoyed a decent dinner. The chef's skills were only slightly above average, but the service was good. Moreover, Li Wei, through his mind-reading ability, could sense the chef's passion for cooking, which was why he gave the restaurant such a high rating.
After dinner, the two strolled along the commercial street. As night fell, people who had been busy all day finally had a chance to catch their breath. The family restaurants they passed were packed with diners, even from the outside. The traditional taverns were bustling with activity.
Li Wei held Akino Sakura's hand, their fingers intertwined. Akino Sakura, who was taller than most people her age, looked rather petite next to the towering Li Wei.
Li Wei laughed and said, "It's been a long time since I've gone shopping like this, and it feels surprisingly good. I guess it's because I'm shopping with a lovely girl like you, senior, that I'm in such a good mood."
Akino Sakura whispered, "Does everyone still call me senpai? Li Weijun, you can call me by a more intimate name."
Li Wei laughed and said, "Then I'll call you Sakura."
Sakura is a very common name in Japan, but different people give different feelings when they hear it. If it is a beauty like Akino Sakura, then she really lives up to her name. Ordinary people do not have the same feeling as "Sakura".
Akino Sakura nodded and gave a soft "hmm." Normally poised and confident, she became a delicate little woman when facing Li Wei. If her acquaintances saw her like this, they would be astonished.
Sakura Akino turned her head to look at Li Wei's profile. This excessively handsome young man had many secrets, and she wanted to uncover them. She wanted to know what kind of person he really was.
Women's curiosity is always so strong. However, when a woman becomes curious about a man, generally speaking, she is not far from falling in love.
Sakura Akino whispered, "This is the first time I've ever gone shopping with a boy like this. It feels completely different from shopping with female friends."
Li Wei laughed and said, "Of course it's different. When you go shopping with a female friend, you each carry your own things. But if you go shopping with your boyfriend, you can just hand the things to him to carry. Isn't that more convenient?"
Sakura Akino said, "It's wrong to use your boyfriend as a tool. Girls who think like that are going a bit too far."
Li Wei laughed and said, "I'm not familiar with things in Japan, but in my home country, there are quite a few girls who have this kind of thinking."
Sakura Akino looked surprised and said, "Would any boys like them?"
Li Wei laughed and said, "That depends on the person."
Beautiful women, even if they're just pretty faces with no substance, still have a ton of horny admirers following them around, wanting to lick their boots. But those who aren't good-looking are completely ignored by men. It has to be said, the world is cruel; outward appearance can often determine everything.
However, Li Wei has moved past the point of simply judging a girl by her looks. Now, he values a girl's personality and inner qualities more than her face. After all, a pretty face with no substance will quickly become tiresome if you keep her around.
Li Wei needs a girl who is intelligent, knowledgeable, and well-read. He doesn't want to talk to those idiots whose minds are filled with nothing but short videos, live streams, shopping, and eating, who spend all day watching dramas, exclaiming how handsome the male leads are, and claiming they can ovulate on the spot.
Even Mayama Ayaka and the others started reading books and learning all sorts of knowledge under Li Wei's influence, because they all knew that Li Wei hated empty vases without substance.
Sakura Akino said, "So, even if pretty girls do something wrong, they can be forgiven, but ordinary girls who aren't pretty enough don't have that privilege?"
Li Wei laughed and said, "That's right, most people, including myself, would think that way. Generally speaking, I would give a pretty girl three chances to make amends if she doesn't make any fundamental mistakes. Of course, there's no third chance. If she makes a mistake a fourth time, it means that the girl's ability is really problematic, and I don't want such a person in my company."
Sakura Akino said, "Three chances is already a lot. What about ordinary girls?"
Japanese society is far more demanding. Forget three chances; a single mistake could be catastrophic, condemning an individual to eternal damnation and preventing them from ever being trusted again. Li Wei's decision to give someone three chances was already considered remarkably lenient.
Li Wei smiled and said, "Two chances. I treat women and the elderly kindly, so even ordinary girls have room to make mistakes. Similarly, as long as it's not a matter of principle, she has two chances."
Sakura Akino was somewhat surprised. She had originally thought that ordinary girls didn't have any special privileges, but who knew that in Li Wei's place, ordinary girls did have privileges, just not as many as the pretty girls. The truly miserable ones were the adult men, who would be treated strictly and made to do whatever they were told.
Li Wei does indeed treat women well, but he didn't say that he would only treat women he considered normal. As for those who were clearly mentally unstable, he wouldn't tolerate them. Or rather, those girls he considered mentally unstable didn't even deserve to be near him, so naturally, he didn't need to consider such a matter.
Li Wei didn't think it was a problem that the girl wasn't pretty. Compared to outward beauty, inner kindness was more important. A girl who only had outward beauty but had a vicious heart was more disgusting to Li Wei, no matter how beautiful she was.
Therefore, Li Wei never showed any kindness to truly bad women.
Chapter 1. A Girl Like a Cherry Blossom
Just as the two were strolling along the shopping street, the distance suddenly brightened. Fireworks exploded in the night sky, their dazzling light illuminating the night, and colorful flowers bloomed. The light shone on Akino Sakura's face, making her appear even more beautiful.
Sakura Akino looked surprised and said, "This is really strange. I didn't expect to see fireworks now. Usually, fireworks are only set off here during the New Year."
Li Wei laughed and said, "Could it be that today is some kind of special holiday, the kind that only belongs to the Arakawa Ward?"
Akino Sakura lightly touched her lips with her index finger, thought for a moment, and shook her head, saying, "All the festivals and celebrations in Arakawa Ward are concentrated at the end of the year, so it's still a long way off."
At that moment, their conversation with the passersby caught the attention of the two people.
"Have you heard? A miracle happened at the shrine today. The giant cherry blossom tree appeared. Some people say they saw ancient people under the cherry blossom tree."
"Really? Are you having another episode?"
"I knew you wouldn't believe me. Someone recorded a video at the scene, but unfortunately, they couldn't capture those two ancient people in the video. It was just like a scene from 'Inuyasha'."
"Are you sure about this? Either you're crazy, or I'm crazy, or the world is crazy."
"Look, those fireworks over there are for the shrine's miracle. The shrine has decided to hold the Ancient Cherry Blossom Festival every year on this day. Hey? Look over there, the hillside is still lit up, and the petals from that giant cherry blossom tree are still falling. If you don't believe me, I'll take you over to see it, and then you'll believe me."
"Come on, come on! This kind of spectacular scenery may only be seen once in a lifetime, so don't miss it!"
Li Wei and Qiuye Ying watched the departing passersby and smiled at each other.
Akino Sakura laughed and said, "Now, that shrine will be famous all over the country. Maybe it will even attract many foreign tourists in the future and become a real 'Great Shrine'."
Li Wei just smiled. He only dared to cause trouble in this kind of world. If it were the real world, he wouldn't dare to be so high-profile. In this world, he could show off his abilities in public at will without worrying about the consequences. In the real world, once he left any clues, it would be easy for those high-ranking beings with divination abilities to follow the trail. Before he had enough strength, Li Wei planned to hide his existence to avoid ending up homeless.
The real world is Li Wei's foundation and the hub through which he positions himself in various worlds. The only thing he can do is to cultivate in a low-key manner and be the Sword God of Shilipo.
Sakura Akino whispered, "Tomorrow I'll be formally introducing you, Li Weijun, to everyone in the student council, and I'm a little nervous."
Li Wei gently traced lines in the girl's palm and smiled, "Then let's introduce him like this: This person is the student council president's man. I'm sure everyone will be quite surprised."
Akino Sakura gave Li Wei a charming glance. Only someone as shameless as Li Wei could come up with such an embarrassing introduction. If she were to introduce herself like that, her authority as the student council president would be completely undermined.
Akino Sakura said with some concern, "Li Weijun, you already have so many girls around you. Will my arrival make them feel disgusted?"
Li Wei put his arm around Akino Sakura's shoulder and laughed, "Leave this to me, I'll handle it."
What Akino Sakura didn't know was that Mayama Ayaka and the others were actually her little fans. Several girls had always tried to imitate her, but that seemingly strong personal style was actually a failed imitation.
They only learned Sakura Akino's decisiveness in doing things, but they failed to learn her composure and gentleness. That inclusive style is what makes Sakura Akino so great as the student council president.
Sakura Akino joining the family won't affect the other girls; Li Wei has a way of handling these things.
With his mind-reading ability, Li Wei has an absolute advantage when facing these situations.
Li Wei smiled and said, "You have school tomorrow, Ying, you can't stay out too late. It's time to take you home."
Akino Sakura laughed and said, "Today is the happiest day of my life."
Li Wei laughed and said, "That won't be the case for long, because your future life will be filled with happiness every day like this."
The two strolled under the lights, and the surrounding noise and bustle did not affect their mood at all. Even when they reached the end of the shopping street, Li Wei did not let go of the girl's slender hand.
..............................
Li Wei rode his motorcycle and took Akino Sakura back to her home. When the motorcycle arrived at the gate of the mansion, Akino Sakura got off the motorcycle, took off her helmet, and her cherry-colored long hair fell out of the helmet, carrying a faint fragrance.
Sakura Akino put her helmet into the box next to the motorcycle and whispered to Li Wei, "Li Wei-kun, can you take off your helmet? I have something important to tell you in private."
Li Wei, who possessed mind-reading abilities, naturally knew what the girl was planning, but he pretended not to know, removed his helmet, and said, "Sakura..."
Before Li Wei could finish speaking, Akino Sakura had already moved closer. Soon, he felt a warm softness on his lips. The girl's sudden attack was something Li Wei had anticipated, otherwise he would have been caught off guard.
After a long while, their lips finally parted. Akino Sakura felt a little breathless and dizzy, but it was a very happy feeling.
Sakura Akino, feeling a bit weak in the knees, took a few steps back. Her face flushed from lack of oxygen, she smiled and said, "Li Wei-kun, see you tomorrow."
Li Wei smiled and said, "I'll have a car pick you up tomorrow. Then you'll be able to get to know them. Don't worry, they're all your admirers, so there won't be any problems."
Sakura Akino said, "If there's any problem, I'll bite you."
