"Looks cool, but actually a bit clueless?" the shop manager pressed, not giving up. What if it was a misunderstanding? What if?
"You're absolutely right, store manager. You have a good eye for people."
I almost wish it weren't that accurate, the shop manager sighed, and continued, "Are there many obstacles between you two?"
"That's absolutely right." Iori nodded repeatedly. "Why would the shopkeeper ask these questions?"
The store manager awkwardly raised his hand: "No, it's okay, everyone has their own way of showing love."
He felt his sanity pounding wildly. He needed to watch something normal to regain his composure, but the Dragon Lord was busy again. Since things had come to this, he could only... Lu Nan Jun!
The store manager looked at Lu Nan, only to find that Lu Nan was sitting opposite Banami, raising his glass and saying softly, "Cheers to your eyes."
Meanwhile, Hamaoka Azusa was watching with a smile, not offering any resistance whatsoever.
No, wait, that can't be right! Isn't he your boyfriend? Could it be that there's actually another expert here?!
Is the relationship in your entertainment industry really this messy?!
But actually, Lu Nan was just complaining to Banami about why there were such crazy lines.
Lu Nan shrugged: "Don't you think this is embarrassing?"
Seeing that the tips of her ears were slightly red, Banai turned her head away: "Indeed, they are somewhat red."
Hamaoka Azusa squinted: "But I actually think it's quite romantic."
Lu Nan nodded: "Then Sister Zi, you should watch more TV dramas."
Hamaoka Azusa laughed. How come he's still such a clueless straight man?
The store manager had already turned his head away. He felt he was about to lose his perfect professional smile and desperately needed to rehydrate.
Then he saw Kohei holding up a cup and looking at Yoshihara Mana: "Would you like a cup of oolong tea? PaB Special Edition."
Yoshihara Aina knew exactly what this was and immediately refused: "I won't drink this kind of oolong tea."
The shop manager assumed the young girl simply didn't like the drink, and since he was thirsty, he immediately stepped forward and took the cup of oolong tea: "If you don't want it, give it to me; I'm a little thirsty."
Those who knew what it was were stunned, but the store manager simply picked it up and poured it into his mouth, and they couldn't stop him.
Of course, the result was quite obvious: the manager collapsed onto the bar, his face flushed, completely drunk.
"Oh dear, it seems something terrible has happened." Hamaoka Azusa looked at the collapsed store manager with some distress.
"Is the manager such a poor drinker?" Lu Nan asked in confusion.
"Do you think everyone is like you monsters?" Banai rolled her eyes in annoyance. "It's normal to get drunk immediately after drinking this stuff, isn't it?"
Senior Ashou also came over at this moment: "This is a bit troublesome. The shop manager won't be able to get up like this."
"If we don't find a way to sober up, then whatever happens later we might..." Kohei said. Relying on these few temporary workers was definitely not enough, including Senior Shou, who had only been working for less than a few days.
The manager was still acting drunk at the bar, raising his arm and saying, "I'm not drunk! I can still drink!"—the kind of talk typical of a middle-aged office worker.
"Is there any way to do that?" Yoshihara Aina asked.
Lu Nan held up his index finger: "My suggestion is to have Geng Ping perform artificial respiration."
"No way!!!" Even more dissatisfied than Kohei was Yoshihara Mana, who jumped three feet high and repeatedly refused.
"That Iori..."
Iori gave him a look that said, "If you dare say that, I'll die," which made Lu Nan too embarrassed to continue.
Iori sighed, "This can't go on forever. Anyway, I'll try to wake him up first."
As she spoke, Iori began to gently rock the shopkeeper's back while calling out "Shopkeeper."
Unfortunately, the store manager still didn't wake up.
Iori reluctantly righted the vase he had bumped into, removed the roses from his head, and wiped the water stains from the shopkeeper's face with a towel.
"Manager, let's be clear beforehand, if we just keep sleeping like this..."
The rose petals slowly fell, and Iori whispered, "I have no idea what will happen next."
The store manager suddenly opened his eyes, staring intently at Iori behind him with a look of terror on his face.
Damn! It's covered!
And it's right behind me!!!
......
Under the streetlights, the Peek a Boo members were walking towards the station. Yoshihara Aina was drunk and was babbling incoherently. It took both Hanami and Chisa to support her.
Kohei looked at Iori with suspicion: "What exactly did you say to the manager? He's completely sober now."
Iori scratched her cheek: "It's nothing, I just gave you some advice."
Lu Nan curled his lip: "I don't think so. The store manager's expression was like someone who had just woken up from a drunken stupor and found a lid standing behind him about to be put inside him, looking terrified."
"Isn't it a bit too much?" Senior Ah Shou said with a smile. "Let's not worry about that for now. Are you guys going straight back? Ah Shi and I have another drink to have. Anyone want to join us?"
Everyone shook their heads in unison. Are you kidding me? If they attend these two's party, will they even be able to get up tomorrow? They'll probably just sleep their heads off.
"Chisa and I took Mana back to Grand Blue first," Hanami said helplessly. "She's so drunk she probably can't get back on her own."
"Kouhei and I are going to visit some classmates, we're off now." With that, the two of them put their arms around each other's shoulders and ran off.
Lu Nan scratched his head, and was about to suggest that he should go along too, when Hamaoka Azusa grabbed his hand.
Hamaoka Azusa hugged the doe-chan like she was holding a hostage, giving off a feeling that she was going to kidnap the doe-chan if it didn't come with her.
Since someone had issued a challenge, Lu Nan was naturally not afraid. If she wanted to fight, then so be it!
Did they think I was weakened in this battle? That's quite a clever plan!
......
"Hmm, fine... never mind, I won't ask anymore, it's pointless anyway."
"..."
"Oops, I was wrong, I was wrong!"
Chapter 159 May I visit your club?
"Lunan? Lunan?"
It seemed like someone was calling my name.
Lu Nan looked up groggily, and then saw Iori's big, ugly face, which instantly sobered him up.
"What are you doing?" Lu Nan asked, scratching his head.
"You're still sleeping after class? Don't you usually wake up as soon as the bell rings?" Iori said helplessly. "It wouldn't have been my problem if you were sleeping, but someone outside is looking for you. It's that girl you met at the arcade."
Lu Nan yawned: "Kid, don't ask so many questions. I understand, I'll go right away."
Iori pouted: "You really don't know what's good for you."
After saying that, he went to continue playing cards with Kohei, Yamamoto, and the others.
Lu Nan pulled the dazed and confused Dai Miao out of the classroom and immediately spotted the familiar cherry blossom-colored hair.
"Fujiwara-senpai? What do you need me for?" Lu Nan asked curiously.
Fujiwara Chika, who was looking out the window, paused for a moment, then turned around and said somewhat embarrassedly, "I saw the approval slip for your club's activities at the student council. Are you planning to go on a training camp?"
Lu Nan was taken aback: "Yeah, what's wrong? Does the student council have some kind of requirement? But shouldn't we just go to Senior Shi and the others?"
Fujiwara Chika shook her head repeatedly: "No, there's nothing wrong with the approval document, it's already signed, it's just..."
She seemed a little distracted, looking around and fiddling with the bow on her chest.
She suddenly became serious, then coughed twice to cover her slight unease, and said earnestly, "May I visit your club?"
Lu Nan's face stiffened, and he immediately felt guilty. His hand unconsciously began to stroke the silly cat against its fur, making the little guy roll its eyes: "It's possible... are you sure?"
Fujiwara Chika tilted her head in confusion: "What's wrong? The president said the seniors are all very nice people."
Lu Nan sighed: "I do agree that he's a good person, but that's not the point... Anyway, I just wanted to say that you shouldn't be surprised by anything you see, okay?"
Fujiwara Chika nodded subconsciously, but then suddenly felt something was wrong. Could Lu Nan's hesitant expression mean... he was being bullied in the club?!
I've heard that some clubs at Yiqing University have this problem, with seniors bullying juniors and using pressure to force people to do errands and other forms of soft violence. Could it be that Lu Nan has also encountered this situation?
So now, isn't he the only one who can save him?!
Yes, that must be it! Maybe Lu Nan gets bullied and pinned down by his seniors in the club every day!
Fujiwara Chika! Her sense of justice explodes!
"I will go! Don't worry about me!"
At this moment, Fujiwara Chika felt as if she was about to embark on a tale of a damsel in distress rescuing a hero and winning the heart of a handsome man, and her whole being became elated.
Seeing Fujiwara Chika suddenly full of energy, Lu Nan, though unaware of what had happened, decided to go along with her: "Okay, how about tonight? There's a club activity tonight too. I'll send you the address later, and we can come over for a big meal."
Fujiwara Chika fell into deep thought. Evening? Her family is a bit strict, so it's not good to go out at night. But if it's to go to Kaguya's house, that should be fine... Okay! That's settled!
"Alright, then see you there!"
"See you there!"
I just hope that the girl won't think this place is hell or something and run home crying, only to be told by the student council the next day that the club has been disbanded.
Inside the classroom behind Lu Nan, several heads poked out looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Hey, why don't you guys teach Lu Nan a lesson for being so arrogant?" Iori started stirring things up with a sidelong glance.
Nojima adjusted his glasses: "I think I have to correct a misconception of yours. I don't think we are criminals."
Iori looked doubtful: "Isn't that right? I think what happened to me is enough to prove that you are criminals."
Yamamoto said, "Like I said, Lu Nan is handsome and has a great physique. I heard he's also pretty good at fighting, has high emotional intelligence, and has an adorable kitten by his side. It doesn't matter to us how many girlfriends he has. We just can't stand that you, this pervert, have a girlfriend."
Iori and Kohei were practically grinning from ear to ear.
"I've developed a condition where I want to laugh whenever I hear that Lu Nan has high emotional intelligence. Iori, do you have any ideas?"
"No, but I think I have this disease too. I really don't know how you guys spread this around. It's amazing."
Nojima snapped, "Stop with the nonsense. How's the thing we discussed last night? We'll each contribute two hundred yuan, and you'll be in charge of the social event, understand?"
