Chapter 221 Staying at Mikako's House

Jing Chen, Zhi Shu, and Icarus cleared a space and found the only good table left. Icarus brewed a pot of tea, Jing Chen leisurely drank his tea, and Zhi Shu fanned himself with a fan, saying, "Summer vacation is almost here, it's so hot, we need to buy an air conditioner."

"Zhishu, before we buy an air conditioner, shouldn't we think about where we'll live first?" Jingchen said, putting down his teacup.

Tomoki suddenly lowered his head and said dejectedly, "That's true. Because of those panties, the whole machine exploded."

It would have been better if Zhishu hadn't mentioned it, because the moment he did, Jingchen was reminded of the day the whole house was blown to bits. He sighed and said, "Don't bring that up. It's better not to. Now that you've mentioned it, I suddenly want to learn the Death Chop from Chuyuan."

"Jingchen, don't..." Zhishu said in a panic upon hearing this.

"Oh right, let's go stay at Morigata-senpai's place for a while longer," Tomoki said.

"Shouxing... there?" Jing Chen paused, looking at Zhi Shu with suspicion. "Could you really stay there?"

The three of them arrived at Morigata's place together. Tomoki said, "Morigata-senpai, although this is a bit sudden, could you take us in for a while?"

Shouge was still fishing, holding a fishing rod in one hand, and said to Tomoki and the other two, "I don't really care."

"Really? That's great!" Tomoki exclaimed in surprise.

Shouxing suddenly said at this moment, "I can't guarantee your safety."

"Huh?" Tomoki was taken aback.

Shougei exclaimed, "Danger, Tomoki!"

Tomoki glanced back and saw a bear standing behind the three of them, baring its teeth and roaring. Tomoki exclaimed in surprise, and at that moment, Shouge rushed over and started fighting with the bear.

While fighting the bear, he said, "Bears often appear around here at this time of year, so be careful."

Just as Shou Xing finished speaking, Jing Chen suddenly sensed malice behind him. Without turning his head, he kicked out and saw a bear, even larger than before, being kicked away.

Turning back, they found that Tomoki and Icarus were each being bitten on the head by a bear. Helpless, they rubbed their foreheads and saw one bear kick the two of them away.

"Wow, Jingchen, you're amazing!" Zhishu exclaimed in surprise.

Besides the bear, there was also a snake crawling not far from the three people.

If all else fails, Tomoki decides to look for someone else.

"No. Xiao Zhi will definitely look everywhere for underwear, and he will never let you live in my house," Chu Yuan said, his hands behind his back.

"Why don't you come to my house instead?" Shouxing asked.

Tomoki switched to a cute style, turned to Morigata, and said, "I hate bears!"

Chu Yuan said, "I might as well just get eaten."

Zhi Shu then turned to Chu Yuan and said, "How heartless of you, Chu Yuan! For the sake of our childhood friendship, please help me out at a time like this."

Chu Yuan looked at Zhi Shu and asked, "Can you guarantee you won't put underwear in my room?"

Tomoki was taken aback, his gaze darting around, blinking frantically. "Sure."

Chu Yuan looked at Zhi Shu and said, "How suspicious..."

"You guys seem to be having a good time. What are you doing?" Suddenly, a voice came from behind. Everyone turned around and saw that it was the student council president, Mikako.

After telling Mikako about it, Mikako smiled and said, "What? Is Sakurai-kun coming to our house?"

"Huh?" Tomoki exclaimed in surprise.

"The president will treat you well," Mikako said with a smile.

"Isn't the chairman's house the biggest mansion that everyone depends on you for?" Tomoki asked.

"Yes, super high-society!" Chu Yuan said excitedly.

"If you don't mind, how about Mizuki-kun, Morigata-kun, and Keishin-kun come along too?" Mikako asked.

"The life of the super-celebrity." Both Zhishu and Chuyuan looked on with longing.

Jing Chen facepalmed. That thing, isn't it just like a gang?

For some unknown reason, the two of them simultaneously raised their hands and exclaimed, "I'll go!"

"Then it's settled. Let's go now," Mikako said with a smile, turning to lead the way.

"Then I shall take my leave." Shouxing pushed up his glasses and turned around to say.

Tomoki turned around and hugged Shouge, saying, "Why are you being so polite? This is so unlike you, Shouge-senpai." Tomoki then dragged Shouge away.

Jing Chen sighed helplessly, rubbed his forehead, and followed behind with an expression that said, "I don't know this group of idiots."

Upon arriving at Mikako's house, Mikako's father sat in the seat of honor and said to the five people who had arrived, "I am Mikako's father. Please don't stand on ceremony."

The bodyguards on either side bowed in salute along with their master. Tomoki and Chuyuan looked tense. Shougai lowered his head, clenched his right fist in front of his mouth, and said, "The Satsuki-Tane family has been the ruling family of Sorabi Town since the Edo period, when this place was still a post station."

Tomoki exclaimed in shock, "So, that 'celebrity' is...?"

"Hmm, more or less," Shouxing said.

Sitting in the lower seat, Mikako smiled and said, "Everyone doesn't need to be so scared. Don't worry, as long as you don't do anything too outrageous..."

Jing Chen suddenly saw Icarus walk up to one of the fathers, holding a watermelon in his arms. He glanced at Mikako's father's bald head, then at the watermelon in his arms, and reached out to stroke Mikako's father's head.

Jing Chen was startled, as were Zhi Shu and Chu Yuan, and even the bodyguards on both sides were taken aback. Jing Chen quickly ran over, grabbed Icarus, and pinned him to the ground, pressing his head down with one hand. Zhi Shu hurriedly apologized, "I'm...I'm sorry."

Jing Chen also said, "This girl is an idiot, don't bother arguing with her."

Mikako's father walked solemnly to Tomoki and his group of five, surrounded by bodyguards. Jing Chen watched, his hands beginning to prepare. He wouldn't need to do any warm-up exercises if a fight broke out.

Just when Jing Chen thought a fight was about to break out, Mikako's father suddenly changed his tone and said kindly, "This is not bad either."

Jing Chen remained in the same position, not because he was overly cautious, but because he was stunned by this sudden reversal. What kind of move was this? This move... is quite novel.

"Alright, alright, what are you all standing there for? Hurry up and go serve the guests!" Mikako's father said to the bodyguards around him.

"Yes!" The bodyguards around him replied and turned to prepare to entertain the guests.

A short while later, Jing Chen and his group were invited to the dining table. Jing Chen sat in the spot where the bodyguard to their left had been. A table had been set up in front of him, laden with food. Because they were kneeling, the table wasn't very large.

One by one, dancers emerged from the central corridor and began to dance. Each of Jing Chen and the others had a maidservant standing by their side at all times.

Looking at the small white bottle on the table, Jing Chen poured himself a glass without hesitation, smelled it, and a unique aroma wafted out. Jing Chen took a sip and savored it carefully.

An indescribable flavor spread through Jing Chen's mouth. It wasn't that Jing Chen didn't understand; mainly because... he hadn't really researched Japanese sake. But just based on the taste and aroma, Jing Chen could tell that this was definitely a good sake.

"Hmm, not bad, good wine." Jing Chen nodded, looking at the half-full glass of wine.

"Oh? You know about alcohol too?" Mikako's father was somewhat surprised. This little child actually knows about alcohol?

Jing Chen nodded. "Just by the taste and aroma, you can tell it's a good wine. However, if you want me to tell you what kind of wine it is... well, I can't. I'm not very good at remembering wine names."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"Jingchen-kun, I never would have guessed you were so good at hiding it!" Mikako said with a smile.

Jing Chen suddenly shuddered, "No, no..."

"Jingchen, I saw you fight the bear before, you must have practiced, right?" Shouxing asked.

Jing Chen said, "I practiced it a bit, but I stopped practicing later for some reasons."

Shouxing nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

After dinner, the servants led Jing Chen and the others to their respective rooms, with Icarus naturally following Jing Chen. Icarus was tidying up in her room when Jing Chen went to the corridor, sat down, and looked at the moon in the sky.
