My daily life in love is too contrary to my character.

"Let's go with this newbie package. He has trouble making decisions, so just ignore him."

"Yes, Miss, what would you like to order your main course and drink?"

Teriyaki chicken rice, mango juice.

"Where are you, Master?"

"Barbecued pork rice, and mango juice too, please."

"Okay, please wait a moment, everything will be served shortly."

After the maid and waitress walked away with the menu, Chiyo looked at Shiraishi Sawa with a teasing expression and said, "Shiraishi-kun, were you hesitating just now because you were thinking about the 4500 yen?"

"How could that be~" Shiraishi Zexiu retorted decisively. How could this woman have figured out his mind so easily?

"Oh, I see. I originally applied for funds to go out and have some fun today, and I was going to treat you to this meal, but I guess we can skip it."

His integrity couldn't be bought off for 2250 yen again; it would cost at least 3000 yen. So, Shiraishi Sawa waved his hand dismissively and said:

"It's alright, we can just split the bill once we get to the sauna. We're not short of 2250 yen."

Soon, two maids brought over their meals and placed them in front of them.

The two then began to cast their own 'magic', taking the one in front of Shiraishi Sawa as an example:

"Master, now it's time to cast the magic to make the food taste better."

Shiraishi Sawah rested his chin on the back of one hand, looking at the maid. Having never truly experienced a maid café before, he said, "We'll see."

The maid was a little shy under Shiraishi Sawa's gaze, but she still began her 'magic':

First, he pointed at Shiraishi Sawa with his index finger raised high, then drew a large circle in front of him while muttering various syllables and particles. Finally, he spun around while drawing the circle, and then pointed his finger at the char siu rice on the table.

"Ding! It's gotten so delicious!"

He picked up the ketchup next to him and drew another heart on it.

"Master, the magic has been completed. Please enjoy it to your heart's content."

"Okay, thank you," Shiraishi Sawa replied with a smile.

After the two maids had left, Shiraishi Sawa looked at Ichiri Chiyo, who was also maintaining a polite smile across from him:

"Have you been here before, Yi-Chou-Sang?"

"there has never been."

"Me too, what do you think?"

It's a long story.

The two nodded to each other.

Upon entering, Chiyo observed the people around her. Some clapped after the maids performed their actions, while others even imitated the maids' movements. She then showed this to Shiraishizawa Hide.

"Why are they so happy? Are all men this unreasonable?"

"Didn't you notice that one of the men in front of you also doesn't understand? There's a saying that goes, 'Human joys and sorrows are not shared.' I just find them a bit noisy."

"That's well said." Chiyo took a bite of teriyaki chicken.

Shiraishi Zexiu glanced at his watch; it was only a little past three. "Ichiru-san, didn't you have lunch?"

"I ate less at noon to keep my figure, so I probably won't be able to finish this. I'll probably only eat half of it. Why can't you eat any more, Shiraishi-kun?"

Shiraishi Sawa took a big bite of rice.

"This is such a small portion, two servings wouldn't be enough. I ate lunch at 11:30."

"That's perfect, I'll give it to you if I can't eat anymore later."

"Welcome home, young lady!"

All the male eyes in the room were once again drawn to the entrance.

Another new customer arrived. Shiraishi Sawa looked up and glanced at the door, only to find that the customer at the door was actually Soga Kirei. The girl quietly scanned the entire maid café, seemingly looking for a seat.

Until their eyes met.

Chapter 28 The Maid's Magic Cannot Defeat the Iceberg Girl

Upon seeing Shiraishi Sawa, Soga Kiriren ignored the maid's greeting and walked straight towards Shiraishi Sawa's table. Seeing this, Shiraishi Sawa also stood up and walked towards Soga Kiriren.

"What a coincidence, President! You're here too? But why are you alone? Where's Vice President Shimizu?"

"I came out to have fun by myself today. I wanted to try a maid cafe, but I've never been before." Soga Kirei didn't speak, and continued to communicate with Shiraishi Sawa on her phone.

"Are you out having fun alone? It must be really inconvenient for you not to say anything, President. Wait a minute, President, let me ask first."

Shiraishi Sawa went to Ichiryu Chiyo's side and said something to her. Upon hearing this, Ichiryu Chiyo glanced at Soga Kirei and then nodded indifferently.

"Oh, President, would you mind sitting at our table? We're a four-person table, and we still have seats available."

Seeing that Soga Kirei nodded, Shiraishi Sawa led her to his table.

"Please sit next to Ichisō, Chairman."

Soga Kirei sat down next to Shiraishi Sawa as if she hadn't heard him. Seeing this, Shiraishi Sawa had no choice but to return to his own seat.

Shiraishi Sawa noticed that the men around him were glaring at him with the same look they had on their father's killer.

"Let me introduce you. This is the president of the student council that I temporarily joined. She doesn't talk much, so she usually uses her phone to communicate. Oh, by the way, once you enter Sang, President Su always has a blank expression, so please don't mind."

“Oh~” Chiyo nodded meaningfully. “I know, my friends who used to work with me had the same problem. I can understand.”

Shiraishi Sawa's face darkened. "The student council president is real!"

She then introduced Ichiyo to Soga Kirei, saying, "This is a friend of mine. We met while working together. The 'friend' she just mentioned is me."

"Hello, Soga-san."

After both Shiraishi and Sawa Hide finished their introductions, Ichiyo greeted Soga Kiri Ren and extended her hand.

Soga Kirei seemed to pause for a few seconds. Just as Shiraishi Sawa was about to step forward to warm up the atmosphere, Soga Kirei grasped that hand, nodded expressionlessly, and then showed Ichiryu Chiyo the message on her phone: "Nice to meet you, Ichiryu-kun."

"Shiraishi-kun, your classmate is quite interesting," Chiyo Ichigo said with a smile after reading the message.

The maid followed and gave Soga Kirei a menu. Soga Kirei ordered a set meal that included an hour's time and a tiramisu.

"Shiraishi-kun, what did you mean by temporarily joining the student council?" Soga Kiriren showed her phone to Shiraishi Sawa, thought for a moment, and then put the phone back on the table so that Chiyo could also see the message.

"Huh? When Captain Oki introduced me to the club, he said that I was only replacing someone for a month, and I would quit after a month. I just need to finish the sports festival I'm in charge of."

Why not stay?

“The student council is really great and you can learn a lot from it…” Shiraishi Sawa Hide could already feel Ichiyo Chiyo’s mischievous gaze. He had indeed complained to her about how boring the student council was. Giving her a fierce look that said ‘don’t let it slip,’ Shiraishi Sawa Hide continued, “But I don’t like troublesome things, so I left the student council after the sports festival.”

"Oh, I see." After typing this and showing it, Soga Kirei put her phone away and stared blankly at it.

Shiraishi Sawa had learned from Oki Taichi that this situation was quite common, so he continued eating his meal and chatting with Ichiriki Chiyo from time to time.

Soon, Suga Muren's tiramisu was also brought up by the maid. As usual, everything had to be 'magically' prepared.

"Young lady, now it's time to cast the magic to make the food taste better."

Soga Kirei stared at her expressionlessly.

Although the maid was at a loss, she continued to perform the 'magic' action.

"Ding! It's gotten so delicious!"

"Young Miss, the magic has been completed. Please enjoy it to your heart's content, Master."

The maid looked at Suga Wulian with a sincere expression.

Soga Kirei stared at her expressionlessly.

When Shiraishi Sawa saw that the maid was about to cry from being stared at by Soga Kirei, he quickly stepped in to save the day, saying, "Alright, alright, Miss Maid, it's alright, you can go now. My friend is just like this, it's his nature, please don't mind."

The maid gave Shiraishi Sawa a grateful look, then took the tray and went back.

Shiraishi Sawa moved the tiramisu in front of Soga Kirei, saying, "Eat up, Soga Kirei."

Then he asked Chiyo, "Chiyo, have you decided where to go later? There's basically no natural scenery here, so we can only take pictures with anime characters and the like."

Chiyo put the spoon in her mouth, pondered, and then asked:

"How many photos have you taken today?"

“I looked at the number of photos and it was over a hundred, but there were only about a dozen different types, and there were a few that you weren’t satisfied with after taking the photos.”

"Let's go take some photos on the street later. I can lean against a pillar with the Akihabara buildings in the background. I also want to take a picture of myself in a phone booth making a call. When you come to Akihabara, the phone booth background should ideally be anime or arcade games."

"My two weeks of studying weren't wasted. These types of cases are all taught in the book, so feel free to leave them to me." Then she turned to look at Suga Wulian, "President, what about you? What are your plans for later?"

"I didn't know, Akihabara isn't that fun."

"President, do you watch anime? Do you play arcade games?"

"I won't watch or play."

"Hey, who tricked you into coming to Akihabara? If you don't like either of these, this place is just a very crowded shopping mall."

Soga Kirei did not respond to Shiraishi Sawa's question.

Seeing that Shiraishi Sawa was still discussing with Ichiyo Ichiryu how to take photos later, without any intention of inviting her, Soga Kiriren lowered her head and tightly gripped the hem of her skirt, but she couldn't bring herself to say it.

For a fleeting moment, she wished that her boring Tokyo persona would be exposed.

Shiraishi Sawa and Soga Kirei were sitting in a row, so Shiraishi Sawa didn't notice Soga Kirei's change. It was Chiyo who felt that the two of them seemed to be neglecting Soga Kirei, so she asked:

"Souga-san, would you like to take some photos together later? Maybe the two of you can come up with some more original ideas."

Upon hearing this, Shiraishi Sawa Hideya turned to look at Soga Kirei, "Yeah, President Soga, do you want to come along? My photography skills are barely passable now."

Chiyo immediately added to help Shiraishi Sawa, "It's not just barely passable, Shiraishi-kun is too modest. He said he was some kind of camera king before?"

"Haha..." Shiraishi Sawa chose to interrupt Ichiyo with laughter. He and Soga Kirei were not very familiar with each other, so there was no need to make these jokes. Besides, Soga Kirei had said that she did not read manga and could not understand it.

Soga Kirei loosened her grip on the hem of her skirt.

"I'm willing, thank you, Yiru."

"You're welcome."

Upon entering Chiyo's room and seeing that Shiraishi Sawa had already finished his portion, she pushed her half-portion in front of him as well.
