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

Shiraishi Sawa and Nakano Sake were sitting in the back of the car, so Takanashi Yuko sat in the front passenger seat.

Because the driver and Nakano Sake in the back of the car exuded an aura that kept strangers at bay, Takanashi Yuuko remained silent after getting on the bus.

Shiraishi Sawa didn't respond, leaning back in his car seat and looking out the window, processing the psychedelic experience of the day.

The four of them drove in silence all the way to the apartment.

Yuuko Takanashi watched the car drive away, then noticed Hideaki Shiraishi's movements beside her, and asked him with a hint of confusion:

"Shiraishi-kun, what are you doing?"

After getting off the bus, Shiraishi Sawa Hide, who had taken off his coat and was shaking it constantly, replied:

"Ah, I'm removing the smell of smoke from my clothes right now; it smells really unpleasant."

"Shiraishi-kun, why are you smoking? What happened?" Takanashi Yuuko's eyes were full of worry.

"Of course it wasn't me who smoked. I would never smoke. It was my friend's father who smoked, and I picked up the smell."

It's expensive and harmful to your health, so let's skip it. Shiraishi Zexiu brought his nose close to the clothes and smelled them.

"It still has a slight smell. Oh well, let's just let it air out overnight. Let's go upstairs."

"What did you do tonight? You just left without saying a word?"

"Well, I'm not entirely sure myself... I went to act in an idol drama, but filming wrapped up halfway through?"

Reflecting on that inexplicable evening, Shiraishi Sawa came to this conclusion.

Chapter 62 Please Never Apologize to Me

"How was your chat with Kuramochi Sakura? It must have been pretty good. I saw you two talking the whole time before I left, even though I didn't understand a lot of it."

"sorry!"

"Stop, Takanashi! How about this, don't you feel bad for me tonight?"

"Yes."

"Alright then," Shiraishi Sawah opened the apartment door and went inside, glancing back at the Takanashi Yuuko who was left outside.

"As an apology, you're not allowed to say 'I'm sorry' or 'excuse me' to me anymore, okay? If I need your apology, I'll definitely ask you for it, alright?"

“This…” Takanashi Yuuko looked at Shiraishi Sawa's face and then at the doorknob next to her, but did not respond for a long time.

"You didn't do anything wrong, Takanashi. Tonight, my task was just to prevent Kuramochi Sakura from being a burly man, basically a bodyguard. But it turns out she's a little loli, and I didn't even get the job done."

Think about those two people who drove us back today. They were bodyguards. Do you think they'd complain to my friend that I neglected them because we didn't talk the whole way? No.

"But Shiraishi-kun, you're my friend..."

"Agree or disagree, or I'll close the door. Don't forget you're wearing a formal dress so you didn't bring your keys."

Shiraishi Sawa deliberately closed the door, revealing only the width of his face as he looked at Takanashi Yuko.

Takanashi Yuuko felt a mix of helplessness and emotion.

"Thank you, Shiraishi-kun, I promise you."

Upon opening the door and seeing Yuuko Takanashi bowing deeply, Hideaki Shiraishi considered whether to ban bowing altogether.

--

"Shiraishi-kun? Are you in your own room?"

After changing into pajamas and emerging from her room, Takanashi Yuuko looked around but didn't see Shiraishi Sawa Hide and asked...

"Yeah, what's wrong? Is there anything I can help you with?"

Shiraishi Sawa opened the door and poked his head out.

"No, I came to ask if you want me to wash your clothes from today. They got a little stain from eating something. I just finished looking at how to clean these kinds of expensive clothes. I remember yours is also a big brand, right? I'll wash it for you too."

"Oh, this is really unnecessary. This isn't a big brand; it's a knock-off. I can just throw it in the washing machine."

Shiraishi Sawa came out, still wearing his clothes, and tugged at his hand in front of Takanashi Yuuko, saying with a smile:

"Haha, but I'd be happy to take it easy if you wash it properly for me. Otherwise, I'm afraid the washing machine will ruin it. This is the first time I've worn this, and I haven't washed it before."

"Eh~" Takanashi Yuko said with a hint of surprise, "Shiraishi-kun, why did you buy a pirated copy? I think it's... it's not good."

"You've misunderstood me. I didn't buy this dress. My mom bought it for me before she sent me to Tokyo. She was probably scammed at the time. She was especially happy when she gave the dress to me when she got home."

Shiraishi Sawa stroked his chin as he recalled, saying:

“My hometown is more rural, surrounded by mountains. My parents are also genuine country folk and haven’t seen much of the world.”

When I was going to study here, my mom immediately started arranging new clothes for me. Later, she heard that formal attire was needed for banquets in big cities like Tokyo, so she bought me this outfit.

"My mom is really cute,"

Shiraishi Sawa Hide laughed happily as he said this.

"When they handed me this dress, they put their hands on their hips and told me how much it cost, and that I shouldn't wear it unless it was a special occasion."

What can I do? Rather than making her regret being scammed, I'd rather she just cry her eyes out and cooperate with my mom, hahaha...

Besides, who cares if it's a big brand or not? I don't care, they're just clothes. With my handsome face, anything I wear looks high-end.

After saying that, Shiraishi Sawah flicked the hair on his forehead with his finger.

“I’m sorry…” Seeing Shiraishi Sawa suddenly staring at her, Takanashi Yuuko swallowed the word “I’m sorry” again.

"By the way, Shiraishi-kun, where do you live?"

"Aomori Prefecture is quite far from here. Takanashi, do you live in Kyoto?"

“No,” Yuko Takanashi shook her head. “I live in Nara Prefecture, which is quite close to Kyoto, but also quite far from Tokyo.”

"I see. Speaking of which, Takanashi, why did you transfer from Kyoto to here?"

Takanashi Yuuko's smile gradually faded. She didn't answer, but after a few seconds she said, "Shiraishi-kun, take off your clothes and give them to me. The fake needs to be dealt with properly."

The topic was abruptly changed, but Shiraishi Sawa Hideya didn't seem inclined to delve deeper. Everyone has their own secrets, and dwelling on them is pointless.

"Wait a moment, I'll go in and take my clothes off."

After changing into casual clothes, Shiraishizawa Hide handed the clothes to Takanashi Yuko.

"Thank you for your hard work, Takanashi-sama!"

The bathroom was temporarily occupied and he couldn't take a shower. After changing into his washed clothes, he didn't want to exercise or sweat. Shiraishi Sawa was at a loss for what to do.

I picked up a notebook and a fountain pen, and began to write down the information I had gathered that evening in a calligraphic style:

1. Upon entering Chiyo, it turns out she really is a young lady from a wealthy family; this woman actually occasionally speaks the truth.

2. It seems that Yumi is afraid of his wife and is afraid that Chiyo will find out about this. Could it be that he is also afraid of his daughter?

Shiraishi Sawa added a mocking smiley face to the back of the image.

3. I will have to see you again sometime in the future.

4. Whether or not it is possible to obtain a large-sum bank card with the password 123456 is currently uncertain.

5. Unsure whether the people monitoring them in the vicinity have been removed.

6. She borrowed 120 yen from Chiyo Ichii to buy water when she was thirsty at her last part-time job and hasn't paid it back. Her family is so rich, they wouldn't be so stingy.

That's about all the information I got tonight. After filling the fountain pen with ink, Shiraishi Sawah closed the cap and put it away.

He crumpled the paper into a ball and threw it into the trash can from a distance. To his surprise, it went in on the first try. He exclaimed that he was "Curry's second machine." After that, Shi Zexiu started being bored again.

In the bathroom, Takanashi Yuko was focused on wiping the dirty parts of her dress with a towel, and it looked like she wouldn't be able to finish anytime soon.

Hideaki Shiraishi took a cushion and sat down at the bathroom door, starting a conversation with Yuko Takanashi.

"Takayuki, are you going home for summer vacation?"

"I probably won't go back. What about you?"

"Me? I'm not going back either. It's too time-consuming and tiring to travel. I'll probably wait until Chinese New Year to go home. So what are you doing during the summer vacation?"

"I'll either go out to work or learn something during the summer vacation, but I haven't decided yet."

"Me too..."

……

After chatting for a while, Shiraishi Sawah noticed that Takanashi Yuko was still working on the same part of the dress she had just finished, and he didn't know when it would ever end.

He picked up his clothes that were lying next to him, and while asking Yuko Takanashi for tips, he began to take care of them himself.

--

After finishing everything, Shiraishi Sawa, who was lying in bed preparing to sleep, felt like he had forgotten something, but no matter what he did, he couldn't remember it. So he simply stopped thinking about it and went to sleep.

So Shiraishi Sawa was woken up by a phone call in the middle of the night.

Takagi Ryo's voice on the other end of the phone was filled with anxiety:

"So, Shiraishi, are you still alive? If you really fell for a honey trap, I'm calling the police!"

I finally remembered who I had forgotten.

Chapter 63 Bored Guy Is Less Reliable Than the President This Time

"Hey, are you there, Bored Guy?"

On Sunday morning, Shiraishi Sawa, with a piece of bread in his mouth, thought about how boring Tokyo was.

About ten minutes later, the other party replied to the message.

"Yes, what's wrong? I have to tell you, my cat was so naughty yesterday. It broke the glass vase my mom just bought so she could put a flower in. My mom said it's going to be punished by having to stand facing the wall today. Right now, the kitten is stuck in a plastic bag hanging on the doorknob, meowing at me the whole time. And..."

Tokyo is so boring. She started talking about the things that had been happening around her lately.

Indeed, it seems like the two haven't spoken for almost a week. No wonder Tokyo is so boring and there's so much to talk about.

Hideaki Shiraishizawa responded to everything Tokyo is boring about, and the conversation turned into Tokyo being the one talking and him listening.

However, this is the norm, and Shiraishi Sawa is used to it.

"...That's all the interesting stuff that's happened lately. What brings you here, Shiraishi-kun?"
