My transformation into a beautiful girl started with a hemorrhage.

Finally, Yamamura Jeff was initially happy that Fujiki Kouta had left, leaving only himself and Maeda-chan in the lounge.

Before he could even feel happy, Maeda Chie immediately followed him out, leaving him alone in the lounge.

A little caught off guard, Jeff Yamamura called out, "Maeda-chan, wait for me!"

As before, Maeda Chie ignored him, and he once again blamed Fujiki Kouta for it.

Finally, he gritted his teeth and followed them out.

Although it was his time to rest, he didn't care anymore; what was more important than a woman?

In the shop.

When Kouta came out from backstage, he found the store seemed to be quite lively.

When Nakamitsu Taisei, who was carrying a tray, saw him, he greeted him warmly: "Fujiki-kun, isn't your break time until six o'clock?"

“Well, it won’t make a difference if it’s just a few minutes,” Kouta replied.

Kouta's interpersonal relationships at this store are actually not bad.

Although they weren't particularly close, they maintained a level of familiarity with each other.

People like Jeff Yamamura who deliberately target others are a minority. After all, everyone is just out there to work, so who is better than whom?

Zhongguang Dacheng leaned closer and said in a slightly lewd tone, "Hey, you've come at just the right time. See those four beauties? Especially that one, the one sitting on the outside, I've never seen one so pretty!"

Kouta looked in the direction that Chung-Kuang Tai-Cheng was secretly pointing. Because it was quite far away and the angle was slanted, plus the obstruction from the store's decorations and seat backs, Kouta could only see the back of the head.

'This looks like Hui...'

'Oh right, Hui mentioned she was going to get some dessert with her friends today, so I should probably bring some back for myself.'

'Furthermore, the blonde girl next to Hui has a similar hair color to Shimazu Shoko.'

'Could this be the shop Hui mentioned yesterday?...'

While Kouta was still silent.

Zhongguang Dacheng didn't notice Gengtai's silence and continued, "You can't see clearly from this direction, but here, this iced Purple Water Chestnut Fairy is for the guests at the table next to those four top-notch ladies. I'll give you this chance to see the stunning beauties."

Finally, Zhongguang Dacheng added, "Remember, the key one is the one on the outside, not the blonde, but the one with black hair. She's absolutely stunning!"

After saying that, Zhongguang Dacheng handed the tray in his hand to Gengtai without saying another word.

On the tray was a glass of iced herbal jelly drink with ice, emitting a slight chill.

"Wait--"

Kouta was about to refuse, but Zhongguang Dacheng's hand was already moving away from the tray, so Kouta had no choice but to take the tray.

"Haha—, Fujiki-kun, go ahead, I guarantee you won't regret it after you see it." Nakamitsu Taisei patted Kouta on the back.

"Sigh~" Kouta could only accept Nakamitsu Daisei's "good intentions" and gritted his teeth to go along with it, already imagining the scene of meeting Hui later in his mind.

Geng Tai slowly walked towards Hui's table.

but,

Kouta was unaware that his conversation with Nakamitsu Taisei had reached the ears of Maeda Chie and Yamamura Jeff, who came out later.

However, they didn't hear clearly, only vaguely hearing "...top-quality...the one on the outermost edge...this cup...for you...hurry up and go see the beauty..."

After Kouta left.

Yamamura Jeff leaned close to Maeda Chie and said, "I never would have guessed that Fujiki Kouta was this kind of person. He rushes over whenever he hears there's a pretty girl. Doesn't he realize that no matter how pretty the other girls are, can they be half as pretty as you, Maeda-chan?"

Yamamura Jeff thought his words were very skillful, subtly belittling Kouta's character while praising Maeda Chie.

That's killing two birds with one stone.

However, Chie Maeda did not appreciate it.

"What does Fujiki-kun's business have to do with you?"

After finishing her speech, Maeda Chie immediately left the mountain village and joined the work.

Jeff Yamamura's expression changed. He gritted his teeth and looked at Kouta not far away, his eyes filled with resentment.

'It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, Maeda-chan wouldn't have been so cold to me!'

His heart was burning, and at that moment, he saw the plate that Kouta was holding and immediately had an idea.

'Hmph, I'll show you soon enough.'

For reasons unknown, Yamamura Jeff quickened his pace to follow Xiang Kouta.

the other side.

Kōta slowly approached.

As the distance closed, he became certain that it was indeed Hui.

The other three are Shimazu Shoko, Nakajima Sakurako, and Tachibana Akiko.

The four women were chatting and laughing, so engrossed in their conversation that even Shimazu Shoko and Nakajima Sakurako, who were facing him, didn't notice him.

However, seeing Huineng chatting easily and happily with his friends, Kouta's face was filled with a gentle smile.

He had noticed the problem before: Hui seemed to dislike communicating with outsiders, except for herself and her family, and didn't have a single female friend.

This scene has now put his mind at ease.

We were just a few steps away from passing Hui's spot.

Kōta also quickened his pace.

However, Kouta, who only had eyes for Kei, did not notice that just a few steps behind him, Yamamura Jeff was following closely, his thin lips already splitting into a malicious smile.

However,

Kouta had already appeared on Hui's right side behind him, and he was about to call out to Hui.

But in an instant, a sudden, powerful force struck him from the other side of his body.

Clang...

Kouta staggered, spilling a large glass of iced Purple Herbal Elixir from his tray directly onto Hui, who was sitting on the outside.

"ah!"

Hui was suddenly and thoroughly soaked by a blast of ice water; a large glass of iced drink was poured over almost her entire body, leaving her in a disheveled state.

Half of her dark hair was wet and stuck together, a few strands of hair stuck to her face with water, her dark blue school uniform jacket was stained black by the water, and the collar of her pure white shirt was open at her chest, visibly sticking tightly to Hui Xue's fair skin, her short skirt was also wet, and in the middle of the short skirt, where Hui's legs were recessed, there were two small unmelted ice cubes.

The school uniforms at Misaki High School were of very good quality, and Kei did not expose herself despite the uniform being soaked in water.

"K-chan, are you alright?"

This scene startled the four women. Shimazu Shoko, who was opposite Hui, was the first to react and got up to check on Hui's condition.

"I am fine."

Although Hui was soaked, after the initial chill, she was fine, except for a sticky and uncomfortable feeling all over her body.

“How can you say you’re fine! You could easily catch a cold!” Akiko Tachibana, sitting next to Kei, said worriedly.

“Yes, my wife, it’s easy to get sick if you catch a cold,” Nakajima Sakurako said with concern.

The two of them had already taken out their handkerchiefs and started wiping the water off Hui's face.

Seeing that Kei was alright, Shimazu Shoko began to blame the waiter who had caused all of this.

"Hey! How do you do things like this—"

just,

When Shimazu Shoko looked up and saw who the waiter was, she stopped mid-sentence.

It would be fine if it were anyone else, but this person is Kouta.

Given Hui's deep affection for Kōta, what's a cup of iced drink to her? She'd probably be happy to be splashed with a whole bucket of it, even if Kōta brought a whole bucket.

After regaining his balance, Kōta immediately became anxious and went forward to inquire about Hui's condition with concern.

"Hui, how are you? Are you alright?"

"Huh?! Kouta?! What are you doing here?" Hui's face was filled with the joy of seeing her lover, as if she hadn't just been splashed with iced drinks.

"Never mind all that for now. Come with me and change your wet clothes first."

"It's alright, it's alright, this little bit of water will dry up in a bit," Hui said truthfully.

Even Nakajima Sakura couldn't help but scold, "Watashi-san, how can you be so careless with your body! A girl's body is very delicate."

"Oh well."

"Hui, come with me." Kouta took Hui's hand and prepared to go to the staff's room in the store.

"and many more!"

A discordant voice rang out.

This is Jeff Yamamura, standing to the side with a livid face.

Originally, he only wanted to take revenge on Kouta by making Kouta neglect his work and be punished by the store manager, so as to vent his anger.

As for the girl affected by his retaliatory actions, he didn't care.

They're just ordinary girls, not even a fraction as beautiful as my Maeda-chan.

But when he bumped into Kouta, he saw the girl who had been splashed with iced drinks.

Suddenly, he was startled, his eyes widened, and he stared intently at Hui's appearance without blinking.

nice!

A stunningly beautiful girl, as if she had been banished to heaven!

He had never seen such a beautiful girl before, and he couldn't even believe that such a stunning beauty, like a fairy, existed in the world.

In particular, Hui's current disheveled state did not diminish her charm; on the contrary, it gave her a contradictory feeling of being trampled by the mortal world, making her an ethereal fairy who never ate earthly food, and giving people a profound beauty that pierces the soul.

However, what happened next was beyond his expectations.

He hadn't expected that Fujiki would seem to know such a stunning beauty.

Especially when he saw that despicable guy, Fujiki Kouta, take the opportunity to directly hold the girl's hand.
