"Why don't you, Minister, just ask the Vice President to go and buy the inflatable caterpillars we need for this fun activity? We can't do anything about it; all the interesting ideas we came up with have been rejected." A member said listlessly, having lost all enthusiasm.

"Although I don't know if you really want to help me or if you're just trying to make me look bad, you can't believe you call those methods interesting. But this method, though simple and unpretentious, is definitely worth a try."

"Minister, it's not that we're not trying to help you,"

A young girl stepped forward.

"Actually, we had already discussed this together, but we didn't know anything about what Vice President Shimizu liked. I asked the seniors who were in the same year as her, but none of them knew either,"

The girl paused, seemingly considering her words.

"Then, Vice President Shimizu can't be treated like an ordinary girl. We can't think of any good solutions. The only way is for you, Minister, to get to know her first and then come back and give us more information so we can continue to help you come up with ideas."

Taichi Oki touched his buzz cut. "That makes sense."

"Okay, then I'll invite Miko to go buy inflatable caterpillars with me this weekend, but..."

Taichi Oki is troubled again.

"What reason can I give to invite Miko to go shopping with me?"

"Do we need girls to pick out the pretty ones? The girls in our department would all put aside their urgent matters for this important event."

The girls present all nodded vigorously.

"Alright, I'm one step closer to winning Miko's heart. Now, which club member will come with me?"

Taiki first looked at the male members present.

Everyone silently looked away. Finally, a boy who had been stared at by Taichi Oki for a long time couldn't help but speak up: "No, Oki-senpai, it wouldn't be good for me to disturb your private time with Vice President Shimizu. Nobody wants to bother you!"

Everyone nodded in agreement. No one could withstand the pressure from Shimizu Yoshiko, except perhaps for Oki Taichi.

Taichi Oki finally fixed his gaze on Hideaki Shiraishi, who had been playing on his phone all afternoon.

"I can go, but you must bring Chairman Su along, otherwise don't even think about me going."

Taichi Oki looked shocked when he saw the text on his phone screen.

"No way, Shiraishi, are you going to pursue President Su?"

Everyone's attention turned to Shiraishi Sawahide.

Shiraishi Sawa began his serious yet nonsensical analysis:

"Well, if it's just Vice President Shimizu, I would never go, even if it meant my death. So, Captain Oki, you have to invite another girl along so I won't feel awkward. Who is the most convenient person for you to invite, Captain Oki? Naturally, it's the president. In fact, that way, your reason for inviting her will be more respectable. What good would it do for me and President Sue to go out? She won't say much anyway. I'm doing this all for you, Oki-kun."

Shiraishi Sawa Hide remained silent about wanting to hear Soga Kirei speak.

"Wow, Shiraishi-kun is amazing! I was wrong about you."

Taichi Oki sincerely apologized to Hideaki Shiraishi.

"Alright, it's decided then. I'll invite the two presidents to come with us to buy props this weekend at the general meeting on Friday! All plans have been perfectly completed today. Meeting adjourned!"

"Hi!"

It turns out that as long as a person is good at socializing, she can quickly become popular in the class.

Shiraishi Sawa witnessed it firsthand. In less than a day, Takanashi Yuuko seemed to have transformed from a transfer student into the most popular person in the class, with both boys and girls seemingly liking her.

The boys liked her beauty, gentleness, and cuteness.

Girls like her naturalness, her concern for their feelings, her extensive knowledge, and her humility.

Shiraishi Sawa liked that she never leaned back in her chair and bumped into his table.

Originally, because Shiraishi Sawa was in this location, the girls would try to avoid going to this area and feeling the low pressure. But now, as soon as get out of class is over, several girls will run up to Takanashi Yuuko and chat with her, and every now and then a group of them will burst into pleasant laughter.

Of course, the boys would also deliberately fool around or talk loudly around Takanashi Yuko, trying to get her attention. Takanashi would usually praise them or laugh and scold them without it being obvious. The boys would then feel that Takanashi was paying attention to them and would like her even more, and from time to time, a group of them would burst into noisy laughter.

At least that's what Hideaki Shiraishi thinks.

He missed the tranquility of this area before.

As the afternoon classes ended, a group of men and women surrounded Takanashi Yuuko and took her around Meikawa High School, sharing club information and hoping she would join their club.

After enjoying a moment of peace, Shiraishi Zexiu packed his things and left the school to go to work.

When I arrived at the store, I met Chiyo Ichiriki while changing into an apron among the staff.

Shiraishi Sawa's condition surprised Ichiro.

"Chef Shiraishi, you look so haggard after just two days. Young man, you need to be more careful."

"Once you enter the mulberry grove, if you sleep at three o'clock and get up at six, and don't even have time for a nap at noon, you'll become like this too."

"What are you doing? Why are you so busy?"

"I'm busy learning photography, I have to take a stunning photo of you." Shiraishi Zexiu lied through his teeth.

"Really?" Chiyo took off her trench coat and prepared to change into an apron.

"Of course it's true, why would I lie to you?"

"So what did you learn today?"

Shiraishi Sawashu hasn't started learning yet, so he can't answer.

After taking the trench coat that had hit him on the head and returning it to Ichiyo, Shiraishi Sawa started working after tying his apron.

--

"Today's work was really tiring. I have some things to do, so I'll be going now. Bye-bye."

It takes a maximum of 20 minutes to take the train from Ueno Supermarket back to Tahara's home, but Shiraishi Sawa still chose to pick out two boxed lunches to heat up at home and eat by himself.

Although the agreed time was 8 o'clock, there was still plenty of time to have a meal, but Shiraishi Sawah didn't like to be right on time, so he planned to go back early.

Nothing unexpected happened on the way, so Shiraishi Sawa was back downstairs at the apartment building before 7:20.

"Go back and enjoy your last forty minutes in your single apartment!"

Shiraishi Sawa's dream was shattered, because just as he peeked out from the second floor, he saw Takanashi Yuko leaning against the railing at her front door, diligently doing her homework.

Shiraishi Sawa pulled his head back in, then poked it out again.

It's confirmed, it's true.

Takanashi Yuuko just transferred schools today; she must be the 'other friend's child' that Uncle Hojo mentioned.

"I hope we can move in together after I get my communication permission card."

Points: 3296

Feeling the pinch of losing points, Shiraishi Sawa approached Takanashi Yuuko.

Good evening, Takanashi.

Chapter 14 The Agreement (Chapter 347)

"Ah, Shiraishi-kun? What are you doing here?" Takanashi Yuuko hurriedly grabbed her homework and bowed to Shiraishi Sawah after seeing him.

The spirit of bowing and scraping.

Shiraishi Sawah indicated that he would add her on Line and then talk to her on his phone.

"Hi! My LINE number is..." Takanashi Yuko, who already knew about Shiraishi Sawa's situation, immediately gave her LINE number.

"Well, Takanashi-kun, you should know Uncle Hojo, right?"

"Were you originally the tenant of this house?"

"It's like this, Takanashi-kun. If nothing unexpected happens, we might have to share an apartment for a long time. Come in with me first. Do you only have these two suitcases?"

“Yes,” Shiraishi Zexiu said, seeing that he had helped her lift the two boxes, one in each hand, and carried them inside. “Shiraishi-kun is so amazing, I couldn’t lift these at all.”

"Take the new slippers, the bottom pair is for the guests."

“The house is quite big. Uncle Hojo is a very kind person, which is why he gave us such a low rent. Your room is the one on the north side, the one whose door is still open right now.”

Shiraishi Sawa walked to the living room table, looking for something. "These are all new bedding in your room that I bought. You can use them directly."

Yuko Takanashi is also looking around at her new home.

"Wow, it's huge! I never imagined I could live in such a wonderful house."

"Ah, I found it," Shiraishi Sawa finally found a key that had just been made yesterday and tossed it to the girl. "Takanashi-san, this is the apartment key. Keep it safe. If you lose it, just let me know."

"Thank you very much!" Gongjiang continued to bow.

"The sliding track on the balcony door is quite old. Sometimes you need to push it forward with force before it can slide. Takanashi, please be careful."

After heating up the two boxed meals he had brought, Shiraishi Zexiu sat at the dining table and waited.

"Has Takanashi had dinner yet?"

"Ah, my classmates took me around the school this afternoon and I already ate at a restaurant. Shiraishi, you don't need to make me another lunchbox."

"No, I ate those two boxed meals myself. I was just asking politely."

"I'm sorry!" This time, Takanashi Yuuko's face was completely red as she bent over.

"Takashi, you really like bowing."

"sorry!"

"It's okay, I didn't mean anything bad. Takanashi, you can continue shopping. If you have any questions, just let me know. I'm going to eat now."

"Ok!"

Shiraishi Sawah ate very quickly. After finishing, he saw that Takanashi Yuko had already wandered into the shower room, so Shiraishi Sawah continued to send her messages on Line.

"This is the shower room. As instructed by Uncle Hojo, I've already bought you all the basic toiletries. The brand new, unopened items on the counter are all yours."

"Oh right, don't open the washing machine yet, there are still my clothes inside. I'll hang them up first."

As soon as the message was sent, Yuuko Takanashi rushed out, her face flushed.

"Sorry! I didn't check the messages and I even touched them." Takanashi continued to embody the spirit of bowing.

Shiraishi Sawahide waved his hand, indicating that it was alright.

“Those are all brand new, Takanashi, you don’t need to feel disgusted.”
