They all have hidden attributes!

Uesugi Maya crossed her arms, her face cold, and stared directly at Tachibana Yuki with an imposing gaze: "He agreed, he'll spend the whole day with me."

"Is that so, Makoto?" Tachimi Yuki asked with a dangerous smile, his eyes narrowing slightly.

Their eyes met, and the atmosphere suddenly became terrifying, with a chilling sense of oppression filling the air.

An invisible, heavy pressure came from his shoulders. Makoto Takahashi swallowed hard, about to speak, when the elevator doors opened again.

As Shiraishi Junka entered the restaurant, her eyes lit up the moment she saw Takahashi Makoto, and she quickly walked over.

She was wearing a long white down jacket that covered her entire body, and she looked very cold. Her hair was not yet combed, so she must have just gotten up.

Upon seeing Makoto Takahashi, Junka Shiraishi's beautiful wine-red eyes instantly filled with tenderness, and disregarding the tense atmosphere, she came to his side.

"Greetings."

Amidst the greetings, she secretly slipped the watch that Makoto Takahashi had left behind the night before into his trouser pocket.

Such an action was too intimate, and Tachibana Yuki's expression became even more unpleasant. After all, Shiraishi Junka had never hidden her feelings, and Takahashi Seiya had mentioned it before.

Seeing his girlfriend's gloomy gaze, Makoto Takahashi quickly said, "I hunted a bear with my bare hands last night, and Yoru was there too."

This overly complicated situation must be resolved as soon as possible; they are far more terrifying than brown bears.

Chapter 153 A Date at the Aquarium

The current situation is more complicated than a battlefield; it's practically hell.

The three people must be separated first.

Amidst the suffocating dizziness, Makoto Takahashi's gaze lingered between Yuki Tachimi, Junka Shiraishi, and Maya Uesugi, racking his brains in desperate thought, before finally settling on Maya Uesugi's tall and slender figure.

She won't actually destroy her little garden, but if she starts arguing with Tachimi Yuki, it will definitely go on and on.

On the contrary, because of the bond with the band, Uesugi Maya would not deliberately offend Shiraishi Junka, and with her present, Shiraishi Junka would feel more at ease.

In terms of knowing how to maintain a proper balance, Maya Uesugi is quite like a cat.

Makoto Takahashi made up his mind and asked her, "Aren't you sleepy? Staying up late is bad for your skin."

"Ha, why didn't you say that when you invited me to a love hotel last night?"

Maya Uesugi's delicate face revealed a smile unlike her usual one, a smile that was both affectionate and expectant.

Makoto Takahashi didn't look at Yuki Tachimi's expression; she couldn't possibly believe such nonsense.

Having vaguely guessed Uesugi Maya's request, Takahashi Makoto rubbed his temples: "Junko has written a new song, and I'd like to discuss it with you."

The answer is correct, and the smile on Maya Uesugi's lips gradually faded.

Makoto Takahashi turned to face Yuki Tachimi and adopted a more consultative tone: "Yuki, I'll go arrange today's date first, and I'll come back to find you later."

Tachikawa Yuki propped his cheek on one hand, put the fried bacon into his mouth with a fork, and turned to look out the window.

Makoto Takahashi immediately put his arm around Junka Shiraishi's shoulder and headed for the elevator. Maya Uesugi stood there for a few seconds, looked at Yuki Tachimi, left a cold remark, and turned away decisively.

He said, "I am a very important person."

After seeing the night view of Mount Moiwa together in the early morning, Maya Uesugi was convinced of it and naturally wanted to show it off to Yuki Tatsumi to curb her arrogance.

The three of them took the elevator and left, arriving at Makoto Takahashi's double room.

Maya Uesugi and Junka Shiraishi sat facing each other on two single beds, looking at each other. Although the atmosphere was somewhat awkward, there was no sense of tension.

Makoto Takahashi drew back the curtains, walked to the water bar, unscrewed a bottle of mineral water, and swallowed a mouthful to moisten his throat.

“Ah Ye, Chun Ke has the right to remain silent. Don’t force her.”

"Senior Shiraishi, you can refuse to answer my question."

Maya Uesugi crossed her arms, her usual sharp-tongued speaking style appearing slightly milder.

"You are the most famous genius in the Shiraishi family, but you are not enough compared to the Tachimi family. Why do you have to lower yourself? Or are you just a frivolous woman?"

She was unaware of Shiraishi Junka's determination and the changes in the relationship between Takahashi Makoto and Shiraishi Junka, only deducing that Shiraishi Junka might not be able to obtain complete happiness.

“I’m not that kind of frivolous woman; I have my reasons.”

Shiraishi Junko is a bit tongue-tied at crucial moments, but the look in her eyes proves that she is full of confidence.

"What do you like about him? His artistic talent, his appearance? What's most important to you?" Uesugi Maya pressed.

"Most importantly... values."

"Values?"

"Ah."

For a fleeting moment, Shiraishi Junko stole a glance at Takahashi Makoto with her clear eyes, then revealed a gentle smile:

"I don't believe that people's values ​​can be completely the same. It's normal for them to be different. We should respect each other's different values."

Everyone has their quirks to some extent, and it's important to learn to respect that.

Although Shiraishi Junka is a coward, she does have her own social circle within the academy, such as the art club and the 3rd year A class.

People often advised her that "this won't work" or "it's best not to," but Makoto Takahashi never did, even when her feelings were too heavy.

"Cheng would never impose his views on others, would never try to change them, and would value my thoughts. It is easy and comfortable to be around him."

Uesugi Maya stared intently into Shiraishi Junka's wine-red eyes, and seeing the innocent expression on her charming face, she realized her own shallowness when it came to matters of the heart.

"My way of thinking is actually very mature, there's no need to worry."

Shiraishi Junka's gaze unconsciously drifted towards Takahashi Makoto's direction, her slightly hoarse voice as soft as if afraid of disturbing Renxin:

“I’m considering this as a step towards starting a family, not just something to have fun with.”

Sunlight streamed in through the clean, bright window, illuminating her. Her deep, wine-red eyes reflected Makoto Takahashi's figure, and her natural smile was even more dazzling than the sunlight.

After hearing Shiraishi Junka's answer, Uesugi Maya hurriedly looked away, got up and left: "I need to go back and catch up on my sleep."

"I'm going to find Leng Zi."

Makoto Takahashi gestured to Junka Shiraishi with his eyes to wait a moment, and then left with Maya Uesugi, going downstairs to her room.

Kashima Reiko and Hanakawa Kaori were studying a fashion magazine together when they saw the two of them return together. Hanakawa Kaori's eyes lit up and she excitedly jumped off the bed.

"Brother, is the aquarium fun tonight?"

"I didn't go to the aquarium, but the seafood at Nijo Market was indeed fresh."

Makoto Takahashi gently stroked her head and pleaded, "Junka is in my room. I'm going on a date with Sachi today. Can you take good care of her?"

"Sure! Leave it to me!" Hanakawa Kaori patted her chest confidently and ran out of the room.

She is very good at taking care of others and is happy to take his place in accompanying Shiraishi Junka.

Kashima Reiko closed the magazine, picked up the tablet computer from the bed, opened it, hugged it to her chest, and walked expressionlessly to Takahashi Makoto:

“Vacheron wants to create a custom-signed watch for you and hopes to collaborate by replicating your oil painting as the dial.”

As she spoke, she opened the image display.

His tone was completely businesslike and flat, and Takahashi Makoto put on a serious expression: "You can decide. I trust you."

"Hmm, is there anything I can help you with today?" Kashima Reiko pulled out a virtual keyboard, ready to take notes.

“I want to book the entire aquarium, which will arrive in about half an hour. I also want to reserve the hot spring at Jozankei and have someone from the branch family send my prey there. Also, I want to stay there and wait for Sachi and me. We’ll stay there tonight.”

"clear."

"I go first."

"The second volume of 'The Girls I Had a Crush Back Then Are Now My Classmates' is released today."

Kashima Reiko's voice drifted from behind him. Takahashi Makoto felt a surge of heat in his throat. He turned around and smiled happily at her: "Please buy it for me. I'll read it on the plane back to Tokyo. Thank you."

"...I just wanted to do my best for you." Kashima Reiko muttered to herself.

It's natural to feel a warmth in one's heart when someone cherishes their hobbies and interests.

Returning to the hotel restaurant with light steps, I found Tachibana Yuki had just finished breakfast and was wiping the grease from the corners of her mouth with a napkin.

"How about we go buy matching outfits later?"

Makoto Takahashi sat down next to her again, took out a watch from his pocket, and put it on his left wrist: "I've never been to an aquarium before, and I really want to go with you for the first time."

"Is that so?" Tachikami Yuki asked with a smile, tossing away the tissue.

"Isn't that what everyone says? Places like aquariums are meant to be visited with people you're close to, so it doesn't matter if you're not familiar with the fish."

Makoto Takahashi took her hand, stood up, and looked out the window at the sky: "The thought of going on a date with you makes me feel like there's no better weather than this."

"Chengjun, you're being very sweet-talking today."

With an angelic heart, Tachimi Yuki accepted his invitation to a date: "Although I was worried that you might be tired, this is just the right punishment."

Although she didn't know what had happened last night, Uesugi Maya suddenly felt confident that it must be Takahashi Makoto's fault.

The two walked downstairs hand in hand, left the hotel, and headed to a nearby shopping street.

Although it wasn't a clear blue sky, the weather was excellent for Sapporo at this time of year, and the sun felt warm on my face.

At a high-end fashion store, the two changed into matching sneakers and bought black knit hats.

Yuki Tachimi took off her dress and put on a light white long skirt and shirt that matched Makoto Takahashi better, which accentuated the rounded lines from her waist to her hips.

Recalling the young lady's figure, every part of it was exquisite.

Makoto Takahashi picked up a gray wool coat, helped her put it on, took off his own coat, and chose a coat for himself as well.

Do you know the key to enjoying an aquarium?

"what is it then?"

"It's like feeling happy just walking with you on an unfamiliar street."

These words were attached to the aquarium guide that Hanakawa Kaori sent last night, but most couples' date spots are like this.

"I see."

Yuki Tachibana stepped forward, her beautiful eyes looking tenderly at Makoto Takahashi, and used her hands to straighten the drape of his coat and the collar: "Makoto-kun, you're being too sweet-talking today. What mischief are you up to?"

"Of course, it's because of the pre-arranged actions last night..." Takahashi Makoto's expression remained unchanged, his gentle tone tinged with a hint of apology:

"I'm planning to go to the cat house tomorrow night, so I won't have time to spend with Reiko. So tonight—"
