Before Watanabe Toru could respond, the system suddenly flashed.
You have a new email
[Temporary event: On February 14th, you receive an invitation to a dance party from Ooka Momiji]
[Activity content: Dance with the red leaves of Ooka]
[Event time: before May 17]
[Activity Reward: Master - Waltz, 1 points]
Seeing that Watanabe Toru suddenly stopped moving, Ooka Hongye lowered her voice: "If you don't have time, then... then forget it..."
Watanabe Toru came back to his senses and said with a smile, "Saturday? Okay, I'll keep the appointment."
Now that he is short of points, he naturally cannot miss the temporary activities.
Hearing Watanabe Toru's agreement, Ooka Hongye's tone became excited again: "Then it's settled. I will help you prepare the dress."
"it is good."
At this time, footsteps were heard from outside the door, and Watanabe Toru ended the call: "That's it for now, I have something else to do, I'll contact you when I get to Kyoto."
"Okay, see you on Saturday."
"See you on Saturday."
After hanging up the phone, Xiaolan pushed the door open and walked in, saying to Watanabe Toru: "Xiao Toru, do you want to take a shower together?"
"Okay..." Watanabe Toru replied happily, "By the way, Sister Xiaolan, my aunt just called me and told me to go to her place to play this weekend."
……
Saturday, April 2.
Kyoto Station.
When Toru Watanabe came out of the station, he immediately saw Ooka Momiji and her housekeeper Iori Muga standing at the exit and waving at him.
Watanabe Toru walked towards them: "Ms. Ooka, Mr. Iori."
Iori Muga smiled and said, "It's been a long time since we last met, Mr. Marui. Thank you for accepting the young lady's willfulness and making you come all the way here."
Watanabe Toru glanced at Ooka Momiji, whose eyes sparkled. "Ms. Ooka is my friend, so I'll do my best to help her with her request."
"Excuse me, Mr. Marui."
"Okay, let's go." Ooka Hongye interrupted their conversation: "Let's talk about the past when we get home."
"That's right, young lady." Iori Muga made a gesture of invitation: "Mr. Marui, please."
Watanabe Toru nodded slightly: "Okay."
The Ooka family's mansion.
Watanabe Toru didn't see Ooka Takuma, Ooka Momiji's father, so he asked, "Is President Ooka not at home?"
"Dad has an important meeting today, but knowing you'd be coming, I told him I'd be back early." Ooka Hongye pushed Watanabe Toru 1.4 upstairs. "I've prepared a dress for you. Come up and try it on to see if it fits."
"Hey, don't push me, I have legs."
Ooka Momiji's room.
Toru Watanabe was looking at a full-length mirror, adjusting his cuffs.
The man in the mirror was dressed in a suit, handsome and tall, with a faint smile on his lips.
Ooka Hongye was dazed for a moment, but quickly came to her senses and said with a smile, "It's just the right size. It seems my vision is pretty good after all."
"That's great indeed." Watanabe Toru nodded. "When does the dance start?"
Ooka Hongye looked at her watch: "There are still two hours left. Are you nervous?"
"Huh?" Watanabe Toru scoffed. "Haven't seen you for a while, are your eyesight not as good anymore?"
321. A Misunderstood Relationship
Ooka Hongye wrinkled her nose and said dissatisfiedly, "You are the one with poor eyesight. Your kindness is taken for granted."
Watanabe Toru looked at her pure and flawless face and said, "By the way, how did you come up with the idea of asking me to be your dance partner?"
Ooka Hongye said as a matter of course: "Because I don't have any other friends of the opposite sex."
"What about your dance partner from the previous dance?"
"I didn't have a dance partner at the time."
Watanabe Toru raised his eyebrows.
Ooka Momiji explained, "At that time, I thought Heiji was my fiancé, so every time I went to a dance, I went alone. Even if someone invited me, I would refuse. But you also know that the relationship between Heiji and me was just a misunderstanding, so now, I can find a dance partner without any burden."
Watanabe Toru suddenly realized: "It sounds like a feeling of being reborn."
"I gave you a first time in my life." Ooka Hongye blinked her bright eyes and said shyly.
Watanabe Toru glanced at her and said, "In exchange, I'll give you my first time. 15"
Ooka Hongye's pretty face flushed: "Disgusting."
Watanabe Toru: "I'm talking about dancing with the opposite sex."
Ooka Hongye rolled her eyes and said, "Don't explain. Men only have those things in their heads."
Watanabe Toru: “…”
……
An hour later, Ooka Hongye also changed her clothes.
She wore a burgundy, long-sleeved shirt with beautiful, intricate pleats on the chest and cuffs. The shirt was tucked into a long, puffy black skirt that swayed lightly as she moved. The black skirt had a built-in belt that cinched Ooka Momiji's waist tightly, perfectly outlining her bust.
Even though Watanabe Toru had seen many beauties, he was still stunned by Ooka Momiji's outfit.
"How is it? Does it look good?" Ooka Hongye turned around in front of Watanabe Toru, raised her head, and looked at Watanabe Toru who was in a trance with a smile.
Watanabe Toru coughed dryly to hide his embarrassment: "Yes, it is easy to attract bees and butterflies. You know, I have a bad temper. If someone provokes me, I will not be polite."
Ooka Hongye chuckled: "Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you."
"Miss, Mr. Marui, it's almost time." Iori Muga walked over and said to the two of them.
Ooka Hongye nodded: "Thank you for your help, Iori."
……
Iori Muga drove Ooka Momiji and Watanabe Toru to the dance party.
On the way, Ooka Momiji and Watanabe Toru briefly talked about the nature of the dance.
"Those attending the ball were the children of entrepreneurs and high-ranking government officials. Ostensibly, they were there to connect with each other, but in reality, they were trying to maintain potential relationships that could develop over the years."
Watanabe Toru smiled and said, "I understand. In the upper class, business and politics form a powerful alliance, which is the only way to control the vast majority of wealth in one's own hands."
Ooka Hongye pursed her lips and did not refute.
The car stopped in front of a high-end mansion. Iori Muga got out first and helped Watanabe Toru and Ooka Momiji open the door.
"Iori, thank you for your hard work." said Ooka Momiji.
"It's my duty." Iori Muga said respectfully, and then said to Watanabe Toru, "Mr. Marui, I'll leave the young lady in your care."
"Don't worry." Watanabe Toru nodded.
After saying goodbye to Iori Muga, the two walked into the magnificent living room. Through the large and bright floor-to-ceiling windows on the left, they could see a yacht docked at the pier. Another group of guests had just disembarked and entered the living room.
The large lamps are hung from the four-story high ceiling, providing bright light without being glaring.
The guests were toasting each other, and elegant waiters carrying drinks were walking around.
When Watanabe Toru and Ooka Momiji walked into the venue together, everyone subconsciously looked at them, perhaps because of the power of the Ooka family in Kyoto, or perhaps because of their outstanding appearance.
"Ms. Hongye, long time no see." A girl who was also dressed gorgeously came over and greeted Ooka Hongye with a smile.
"Ms. Machi," Ooka Momiji replied with a smile. "We haven't seen each other since we parted in Osaka last year. Are uncle and auntie doing well?"
"Not bad." The girl named Zhenzhi smiled and looked at Watanabe Toru: "Is this your boyfriend? So handsome."
"he……"
Without waiting for Ooka Momiji to explain, the girl extended her right hand to Watanabe Toru in a friendly manner: "Hello, I am Shimizu Machi. Please give me your guidance."
"Hello, Marui Toru."
The two shook hands.
"When did Mr. Marui meet Miss Momiji?" asked Shimizu Machi curiously.
"Last May."
"So we've known each other for so long." Shimizu Machi was surprised for a moment, then smiled and said, "Ms. Hongye does a really good job of keeping secrets."
"No...we..." Ooka Hongye opened her mouth, wanting to explain.
"When you get married, please send me an invitation." Qingshui Zhenzhi said with a smile: "Okay, I won't bother you anymore. I hope you have fun."
After Shimizu Machi left, Ooka Momiji finally had the chance to speak: "Why don't you explain to Miss Machi?"
"What's there to explain?" Watanabe Toru spread his hands. "Saying I'm not your boyfriend? That requires people to believe it."
"So, will this lead to 627 people misunderstanding me?"
"It's just a misunderstanding." Watanabe Toru said nonchalantly, "After this dance, who knows how long it will take for you to meet again? You haven't been in touch with Miss Sadako for a year."
"It's Miss Machi." Ooka Momiji corrected.
"Don't worry about these details. She doesn't care whether you have a boyfriend or not. She's just being polite." Watanabe Toru looked at the dazzling array of food on the long table. "Compared to that, the food here looks pretty delicious."
Ooka Momiji rolled her eyes.
The entrance time is from 7:30 to 8:00, and the formal dance is from 8:00 to 10:00.
Before eight o'clock, Ooka Hongye greeted various people in turn, and the topics of conversation were rather boring, nothing more than asking some polite questions such as how have you been doing recently, whether your parents are healthy, etc.
Until ten o'clock, the lights slowly dimmed and the melody of waltz accompaniment sounded.
In the venue, the male partner and his female partner smiled knowingly, hugged each other, and danced the waltz.
Watanabe Toru turned his head and looked into Ooka Momiji's eyes.
"Dance to a song?"
Watanabe Toru made a gesture of invitation, and Ooka Momiji blushed slightly and placed her hand in his palm.
Watanabe Toru put his arm around her slender waist, held her hand, and took the basic steps of the waltz.
322. Ooka Momiji's First Kiss
After dancing two dances in a row, Ooka Hongye began to breathe slightly, so she suggested going out for some fresh air.
The two came to the private dock on the other side of the mansion.
Many guests also chat here, look out at the sea view and breathe fresh air.
There is also a bonfire here, with a chef grilling food next to it. Guests can also take their own food and grill it over the charcoal fire.
The ground leading to the dock is covered with lantern-shaped lights, and the shadows of the trees dance among the bright yellow lights.
"Do you want to take a boat ride to enjoy the night breeze?" Ooka Momiji turned and asked Watanabe Toru.
Watanabe Toru looked at her expectant eyes and couldn't help but laugh.
It was obvious that he wanted to take a boat ride, but he deliberately asked himself what he thought.
"Then sit down for a while." Watanabe Toru gave her face.
Ooka Hongye asked the servant standing at the dock for a wooden boat.
Away from the dock and away from the lights of the dance party, you can see tall buildings on the shore, brightly lit, and cars flowing like water on the bridge.
The small boat the two were on was hidden in the night, with only a light on the bow proving that there were people here.
Watanabe Toru let go of the oar, supported the hull with both hands, and leaned his body backward. The bright starry sky was reflected in the cold water, like a painting in the water, ethereal and ethereal.
He suddenly remembered a line from a poem: "After being drunk, I didn't realize that the sky was under the water, and the boat was full of clear dreams that overwhelmed the starry sky."
