Tokyo: Am I the only male tenant?

Ginjo tasted it as the women watched.

The ingredients purchased by Tomoko Matsumoto are always of high quality. The steaks are plump, juicy and have an excellent taste.

The temperature for baking was controlled just right, and Yincheng wanted to praise himself for that.

Apart from that, what impressed him most was the soul sauce wrapped on it.

The flavor of wasabi plays a wonderful role. It is refreshing and relieves greasiness while also highlighting the original aroma of the barbecue.

"what about the taste?"

After feeding Ginjō, Chie Hoshino did not rush back to her seat, but stood there with her head raised waiting for his answer.

"Yeah, it's delicious."

Ginjo said casually and naturally.

"Eh? Is that all? This is what I fed you myself."

Chie Hoshino asked him coquettishly, and seemed not satisfied with such a short answer.

"Okay, okay, Chie's thoughts are all concentrated in this piece of barbecue. The taste is really unforgettable."

The affair that lasted the entire afternoon put Yincheng in a very good mood, so he simply put on an exaggerated expression and cooperated with her performance.

"Hahaha, that's right. I know Sosuke is acting, but it doesn't matter. Even if it's like this, my kindness is worth it~"

A smug smile immediately appeared on Chie Hoshino's face, and she didn't care at all about the gazes of the other women.

Then again, she seemed to get even more excited when she was traveling than when she was usually at the apartment.

This time her behavior was particularly obvious. Not only did she arrogantly call herself a beauty, she also took the initiative to show her courtesy to Yincheng in front of so many people.

"Isn't Chie-sister too cunning?"

"What's wrong? Sachiko can go feed Sousuke if she wants."

After returning to her seat, Chie Hoshino started whispering with Sachiko Matsumoto again.

However, at such a close distance, Ginjo would still be able to hear them even if they spoke in a low voice.

"Eh?"

"I told you that you wouldn't dare."

"That's not the case. Just feed it. What's the big deal?"

Ginjo was curious as to why they were competing with each other over such matters; women's strange ideas were always hard to understand.

"Well, Sosuke, you've worked so hard today, both cleaning the lawn and taking care of the barbecue. I'll feed you a piece of meat as a thank you..."

Matsumoto Sachiko mustered up the courage to speak to Ginjo, saying that it was the first time she had such an intimate interaction with Ginjo in front of the Hoshino sisters.

It seems that at this point, girls are less and less willing to hide their feelings.

It might not be long before all the details of their relationship with Ginjo come to light.

"Okay, thank you Sachiko then."

There is no word like shyness in Ginjo Sosuke's dictionary. He accepts all the enthusiasm shown by women.

Looking at Ginjo's cheerful smile, Matsumoto Sachiko quickly picked up a large piece of meat from the plate and put it into his mouth.

Chie Hoshino deliberately whistled to make trouble, causing Matsumoto Sachiko's cheeks to turn red.

"Sister, you are such a fool. You were the one who started it. Why are you still making fun of Sachiko?"

Chiaki Hoshino couldn't help but feel sorry for Matsumoto Sachiko.

"Like my sister said just now, Sousuke has been busy grilling for everyone and has no time to eat, so it's normal for him to need someone to feed him."

As she spoke, she picked up the chopsticks and started feeding Yincheng.

The movements look so natural, not contrived at all.

It has to be said that ever since there was a considerable breakthrough in the relationship between Hoshino Chiaki and Ginjo, her attitude in this regard has become increasingly indifferent.

Yincheng had just fed her yogurt, so it was only natural for her to feed Yincheng some barbecue in return.

"Chiaki is right. It would be embarrassing to have Sousuke-kun just watch us eat."

Of course, Matsumoto Tomoko was not to be outdone, and she moved closer to Ginjō to keep him busy.

There is an intense sport waiting for him in the evening, so of course he has to replenish his energy in advance.

Ginjo Sosuke grilled the ingredients while enjoying the women taking turns feeding him.

About an hour later, several large bowls of food were finally empty, and the people, who had eaten and drunk their fill, were happily chatting in the evening breeze.

But as expected, Chie Hoshino was stroking her stomach back and forth because she ate too much, looking like she was suffering from indigestion.

"Chie-sister, are you okay?"

Matsumoto Sachiko asked her with concern.

"I'm fine. I should be fine as long as I eat some sweets."

Chie Hoshino slowly turned her head and said something unexpected.

"No way, can you still eat, sister?"

Chiaki Hoshino looked at her sister with a worried look on her face.

"It's nothing, it's nothing. If I ate as little as Qianqiu, I would starve to death."

Why there is such a big difference in the stomach capacity of twin sisters is really a big unsolved mystery.

"Sachiko, there are some Hagi mochi I bought at the supermarket in the refrigerator. Can you help me get them?"

"Got it. I'll get it right away."

Matsumoto Sachiko let Hoshino Chie eat the Hagi mochi she brought to her as if she was taking care of a patient.

So Chie Hoshino's condition gradually improved, and she recovered completely after eating the second piece.

I've seen this scene before, but seriously, what is her body structure like?

"Phew, now I'm finally full. I'm going to tell you about my great discovery."

After Chie Hoshino recovered, she started a new topic as if she had been waiting for this opportunity.

Her mysterious expression attracted everyone's attention.

"What major discovery?"

Ginjo Sousuke was the first to ask her.

"Ahem, I overheard a few local ladies chatting in the supermarket. They said there's a shrine nearby that's super effective for finding love~"

Chie Hoshino pretended to clear her throat and announced her answer.

"A shrine for seeking marriage?"

I don’t know if it was the word “marriage” that touched their nerves, but the women suddenly became excited.

As long as love, marriage, and romantic luck are mentioned, it is impossible for women not to be interested. Maybe it is something engraved in their genes.

"Yes, yes. It is said that if you pray there, you will be blessed with a good marriage."

Chie Hoshino's eyes lit up and she excitedly told everyone the information she had heard by chance.

"Really? What's the name of that shrine? Is it close? Should we go check it out?"

Matsumoto Sachiko asked a series of questions like a machine gun, and she seemed to be eager to set off right away.

"Well, I only heard a few words here and there, so I'm not too sure."

"Those ladies were chattering so fast, and they paid the bill and left while chatting."

According to Chie Hoshino's memory, the shrine famous for praying for marriage is about half an hour's drive from the villa.

There are hills and farmland on four sides, so it is most likely in the north or west of the county where there are more mountainous areas.

After hearing what she said, everyone realized that the amount of information was too little.

Since I don't know the specific name of the shrine, I can't find much useful information on the Internet.

Maybe that shrine is only famous among the locals?

"It seems that I can only look for it step by step, but it should be very hard..."

Even though the clues were so vague, the women were unwilling to give up.

Matsumoto Sachiko couldn't help but speak her true feelings, and no one said a word. Most likely, they had the same idea as her.

"Knowing this, it will probably be fine."

Only Chiaki Hoshino seemed to be thinking about something, and whispered after a few seconds.

"really?"

Everyone else turned to her to find out what was going on.

"Well, wait for me a moment."

Chiaki Hoshino left the wooden terrace and returned to the villa, and soon came back with something.

After everyone had cleaned up the messy tableware that was piled together, she spread out the things in her hands on the table bit by bit.

It turned out to be a map of the county blown up to poster size.

"Eh? Did Qianqiu bring a map?"

"Well, since this is a mountainous area and this is our first time here, it might be easy to get lost."

“Although you can use an app on your phone, I think a big map like this that everyone can gather around to look at might also be useful.”

"If we want to find a place, we can mark it on the map first and then enter it into the map app, which should make it easier to find it."

As Ginjo once again admired Chiaki Hoshino's thoughtfulness, she had already taken out her cell phone and started marking on the map with a black pen.

Chiaki Hoshino drew a star symbol on the villa where the group was staying, then circled an area on the map, and then drew a large number of triangle marks in the circle.

After a moment, she put down her pen and raised her face.

"Look, everyone."

Ginjo and the women thrust their upper bodies forward and looked at the map.
