Even those who are mediocre in talent will certainly have good judgment and won't do anything reckless.

This is why the world is always dominated by large families. Their descendants always have a high starting point, work exceptionally hard, and have countless predecessors paving the way and guiding them.

How could such a family not produce talented individuals who could support it?

Okay, after saying all that, what I really wanted to say is...

Given Arima Kento's current personality and other characteristics, if he were placed in the Arima clan's stronghold, the capital, he would be considered a vulgar person.

Why not just acquire a publishing house and then conduct business operations behind the scenes? Why not write about the internet? Or light novels?

If they are great writers, then there's not much to say.

After all, everyone who can be called a 'literary giant' is a highly influential public figure.

Furthermore, it will become well-known both domestically and internationally, and will be admired by a large number of people.

Arima Kento's current actions will definitely be seen as a farcical trick by the family's higher-ups.

Perhaps he will only be valued by those people when Arima Kento finally "writes" the masterpiece they want!

On the contrary, it is Arima Kento's older brother, Arima Kosei.

However, he is regarded by many as an outstanding person because of Kousei's unparalleled piano talent.

Whether it's mechanically recording compositions or movingly performing them, it's something that countless people envy and marvel at.

If Kousei can become a world-class pianist, then he will also receive attention and support from his family.

If he knew his family's opinion of Arima Sento, he would simply dismiss it with disdain.

I'm just trying my best in my own way. If those old fogies still refuse to budge, I'll just pull out a few classic books and throw them in their faces.

Let's see if you value me or not!

However, at this moment, Ma Xiandong couldn't care less about these things.

Because he's still in the midst of a chaotic situation!

Damn it...

Arima Kenji was puzzled by the girls' harmonious relationship earlier, but when they arrived at the restaurant...

Arima Sento realized then that he really had... guessed right!!

The restaurant is a large shop with tatami rooms and many small cubicles, where people can enter and enjoy their meals.

A small cubicle can seat a maximum of four people, and if you squeeze in, five people can barely fit.

So, Izumi Masamune, Izumi Sagiri, Senju Muramasa, and Takasago Chie were assigned to one small cubicle. Arima Kousei, Sawabe Tsubaki, Watari Ryota, and Aota Keiko were assigned to another small cubicle.

Arima Kento shared a cubicle with four girls with whom he had complicated entanglements.

This was not something Ma Xiandong requested to allocate; rather, it was the result of others spontaneously forming the group.

On the Izumi Masamune side, they all knew each other very well, so they were most comfortable sitting together for a meal.

Kousei felt the same way; he actually felt very uncomfortable when he was with Izumi Masamune and the others.

So, only five people are left.

Arima Kento and his 'friends'.

The three small cubicles are close together, and the partitions between them can be lowered.

So, Takasago Chie mischievously put down the barrier between them and Arima Kenjiro's side, and then looked at Arima Kenjiro's side with excitement, hoping for a happy outcome.

As if they were telepathically connected, Tsubaki Sawabe's mischievous spirit was also ignited, and she lowered her guard almost simultaneously with Chie Takasago.

Then, imitating Takasago Chie, she kept staring at Arima Kenjiro's spot.

Arima Kento was quite helpless about this.

He wanted the two to pull the block back, but Kousei and Izumi Masamune stopped him.

"Since we're all out eating together, isn't it a good thing that we can see each other? Why do we have to cover it up? Is there something shameful about it?" x2

Therefore, Arima Sen-dong felt that he had made a fake friend and had a fake brother.

You guys definitely want to see what happens, don't you?! Seriously, enough is enough...

Just you wait, when this happens to you in the future, I will repay you tenfold! Not only will I watch openly, but I will also invite a troupe to perform monkey shows and play songs!

Let's play "Little Apple"!

Forcibly turning his gaze away from the onlookers, Arima Kento took his seat.

Then, an even more serious situation arose.

The table was square, and five people could barely sit down. But who would sit on either side of Arima Kento?

Arima Kenjiro scanned the four girls and noticed that they all had expectations in their eyes and none of them showed any humility.

If this isn't handled properly, it could end up like a woodcutter's axe!

Arima Sento was terrified, but he still had to come up with a solution.

Because everyone is watching him!

Aya, Ame, Fairy, and Eriri—these four girls hold different positions in Arima Kento's heart, but he cannot choose them based on his feelings at this moment.

We need to approach it from other angles...

Ayako, Ame...

Hey, I've got an idea!

Arima Kenji sat up straight, met the girls' gazes, and slowly began to speak:

"Ako, Megumi, you two sit on either side of me. Eriri and Fairy, sit opposite me! This is the most suitable way to sit at this table."

Chapter 239 I can't write this kind of thing, am I crazy?

"Why?! I wanted to sit next to you too..." Eriri said, her heart pounding as she heard Arima Kento's words.

Although Yamada Elf did not speak, her eyes revealed a strong sense of dissatisfaction.

"Ahem, I have considered it."

Arima Kenjiro looked at the girls in front of him and stated his reasoning, "Ayako and Ahui are my sisters. Is it wrong for a sister to sit next to her brother?"

"So everyone, relax and get ready! The food will be served shortly. Ayako, sit down quickly, your favorite dishes will be served first! Ahui, you two, hurry up and take your seats!"

This explanation is somewhat far-fetched, but it's not entirely unacceptable.

It seems that Ayako and Megumi Kanno are getting closer to Arima Kento, but they are being called younger sisters, which makes them seem further away from Arima Kento.

On the contrary, Yamada Elf and Sawamura Eriri are not burdened by such titles, and are therefore able to be more uninhibited and express their own thoughts.

"Arima-kun! Try this sushi, it's delicious! Come on, ah!"

"Arima-kun! You should try this sashimi! It tastes really good! Here, let me dip it in the sauce for you, ah!"

Looking at the two blonde girls in front of him, each holding out chopsticks to feed him, Arima Kenji could only think, 'Why do they have to squeeze together like this?!'

Wouldn't it be better to do it one at a time?

The girl he liked also liked him and was even willing to feed him and serve him food.

These two wonderful things coming together should have brought double the joy, but why did it turn out like this?

It's not good to feed someone from just one person right now.

So Arima Kento had no choice but to reach out and grab the two girls' slender wrists, then put the sushi and sashimi together, open his mouth and eat it all.

How does it taste when slightly sweet sushi is mixed with sashimi?

You know what, it actually tastes pretty good...

At this moment, it was as if Arima Kento had developed a new menu.

So he kept picking up a slice of sashimi, adding a piece of sushi, putting them together, and eating them in one bite.

And they kept repeating the above actions.

However, the two girls who caused this situation seemed a little shy at the moment.

With her cheeks flushed, she picked up food with her chopsticks, slowly put it into her mouth, and very slowly pulled the chopsticks out of her mouth.

Both Yamada Elf and Sawamura Eriri acted in this way.

Megumi Kanno and Ako's eyes also flickered; they also wanted to feed Arima Kento.

However, their resentment dissipated the next moment.

Because Ma Xiandong served them food.

Of course, this action naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of Yamada Elf and Sawamura Eriri.

So, Ma Xiandong also served food to the two of them.

In the end, Arima Kento didn't even have time to eat.

He spent the entire time serving food to the four girls, and even with his best efforts, he still couldn't keep up with everyone.

The girls naturally wouldn't ignore Ma Xiandong's hunger.

They took turns feeding Arima Kento with their own chopsticks, and none of them complained about the saliva that might remain on the chopsticks.

They all ate like Yamada Elf and Sawamura Eriri did before...

*Smack! Smack!*

Arima Kousei and Izumi Masamune closed the partitions of the small cubicle.

They suddenly couldn't handle the shock...

Finally, when they left the restaurant, Arima Kenji looked completely satisfied, which only fueled the resentment of the other guys.

Well, excluding Kousei, he and Tsubaki are also very sweet together.

Ryota Watari really wanted his girlfriend to feed him like that, but Keiko was surprisingly shy and didn't do anything.

The same applies to Izumi Masamune.

Izumi Sagiri was shy, as was Senju Muramasa; in fact, the two were even hostile towards each other, and neither of them felt any enjoyment whatsoever.
