I am a voice actor, not your emotional support

"Ah."

Sakura Ayane became more and more curious, but he was unwilling to say more.

So he could only snort.

Miss Sakura's car is a Soul Red Atez, which is very popular among women for its dynamic appearance. Unfortunately, this model was discontinued in April this year, so Miss Sakura's car can be said to be a limited edition to some extent.

After getting in the car, Miss Sakura began to adjust the position of her seat, while Toru Uehara sat in the passenger seat and watched her busying around, and couldn't help but feel more alert.

"...Are you sure you have a driver's license?" he asked doubtfully.

"Of course! I'm an experienced driver!" Miss Sakura was full of confidence, but she seemed to be still looking for something.

"That's weird. I clearly put the keychain here just now... I found it."

"Well, then start the engine and remember to hold the brake..."

"Wait." Toru Uehara really couldn't help it. He was extremely sleepy, but now he suddenly became energetic.

Because he didn't really want to just "send it" like that.

"Get up and let me open the door."

"No, my skills are really good. My parents even praise me."♀３'０〃!

"…So what were you doing just now, reciting the steps?"

"Of course I have to carry you on my back. I don't drive much, so there's nothing wrong with being more cautious, right?" Miss Sakura was dissatisfied with Uehara Toru's distrust, but she still smiled: "Don't worry, Xiao Toru, trust your sister Sakura, I promise to take you to your destination safely~"

Listening to her deliberately queenly voice, Uehara Toru was too tired to complain. In the end, he could only resign himself to his fate, fastened his seat belt, and spread his hands.

"If you die, even as a ghost I won't let you go."

"Pah, pah, pah, you are really prejudiced against me, senior."

When Sakura Ayane saw that he simply closed his eyes and refused to look, she chuckled, then continued to recite the steps and officially started driving.

……

Unexpectedly, Miss Sakura's driving skills are really good. Although she has some ridiculous little movements while driving, such as accidentally triggering the wiper, but overall her speed control is very stable, and people will not feel uncomfortable with sudden braking or acceleration. Uehara Toru actually took a nap in the car and did not feel any urge to vomit.

After getting off the car, Uehara Toru thanked Sakura Ayane and admitted, "Thank you, you did drive very well. I misunderstood you just now."

"Well, goodbye." Toru Uehara prepared to leave.

"Hmm? See you later, senior. I also want to see you buy a suit!" Sakura Ayane quickly parked the car and followed Uehara Toru.

Toru Uehara didn't say much and took her to the suit shop recommended by Saori Hayami.

As soon as they entered, they saw a store filled with all kinds of suits and an old grandfather who looked very old. He greeted Toru Uehara and Ayane Sakura with a smile.

The old man was obviously stunned when he saw Sakura Ayane, but Sakura Ayane blinked at him and made a hushing gesture.

The old man understood immediately, and then asked Uehara Toru kindly: "Are you here to buy a suit, or do you need to rent one?"

Uehara Toru smiled and nodded, thought for a moment and said, "I'll rent one for emergency use first, and then customize one."

"Okay, then what occasion are you attending?" asked the old man.

"At a banquet, there may be many elders present." Toru Uehara replied.

"Is that so? Then I recommend you try this style." The old man picked up a black suit. Although the suits look similar, the different fabrics and craftsmanship will give you completely different effects when you put them on.

Some suits are baggy, others are too tight. A tailored fit that is tailored to your body and meticulously designed for your individual needs is the right choice for a suit.

Sakura Ayane stood by and enjoyed watching Uehara Toru try on different suits. He looked much better in them than her father did.

Although her father's figure was also good, there was still a clear gap compared to someone like Toru Uehara who had exercised his entire body.

At least for now, every suit that Toru Uehara tries on flatters his figure well.

Uehara Toru stood in front of the mirror, feeling a little undecided. He turned to Sakura Ayane and asked for her opinion: "Which one do you think suits me better?"

Sakura Ayane paused. She wanted to say that she liked him wearing...

But then she thought that there were many elders at the banquet that Uehara Toru was going to attend, and his handsome appearance would easily attract attention. In order to prevent him from attracting too much attention and attracting attention, she decided to choose a relatively ordinary suit.

"Let's go with the fourth set." Sakura Ayane stated her choice.

Uehara Toru looked at the suit and asked in confusion, "Why did you choose this one?"

"Senior, don't you want to be moderate? Why dress too nicely? We should be low-key, low-key." Sakura Ayane explained.

“…That’s right, let’s use this approach.” Uehara Toru agreed.

"And then customize a set..." he continued.

"We need to measure your body data." The old man said, looking at Sakura Ayane, as if asking her if she needed to leave.

Sakura Ayane raised her head and chest and said confidently: "Measure it, I want to see your body data. Oh, by the way, my waist circumference is 58 cm, are you envious?"

Uehara Toru glanced at her, as if to indicate that it was no big deal.

Sakura Ayane is indeed very proud of her figure, which is well-proportioned and has slender legs.

Uehara Toru asked the old man: "Do I need to take off my clothes?"

"It's better to take it off." replied the old man.

"Okay." Uehara Toru said and walked into the locker room.

Although Sakura Ayane felt a little regretful, she was also satisfied to know the physical data of Uehara Toru.

A few dozen seconds later, Uehara Toru came out dressed. The old man smiled and nodded: "Your figure is very perfect, it can be said to be in line with the golden ratio. It is not difficult to customize a suit for this figure."

Uehara Toru smiled and responded: "Thank you."

"So what's your waist, hips and chest circumference?" Sakura Ayane put down her phone, tangled a hand in her hair, and asked with a smile.

Uehara Toru replied: "What does this have to do with you?"

"Tsk, I'm just asking. If you don't want to tell me, forget it." Sakura Ayane said pretending not to care.

Afterwards, all the data was collected and the rented suits were packed. When Uehara Toru was about to check out, he found that the price was much cheaper than expected, and he was a little confused.

The price of renting a suit is 100,000 yen for three days, but now it is 50% off. The first set of custom-made suits is 400,000 yen, and if additional materials are needed later, you may have to pay more. Don't doubt it, I went there to see it last time, and the prices ranged from a few thousand to tens of thousands, and most of them were rented and returned on the same day)

But even so, it was still much cheaper than he expected. After all, the quality of the suits in this store was obvious to all.

Toru Uehara confirmed the price with the old man before completing the payment.

Uehara Toru noticed that Sakura Ayane had suddenly disappeared, and felt a little confused, so he decided to leave the store first.

Not long after he left, Sakura Ayane returned to the store. She quickly walked up to the old man and asked mysteriously, "Grandpa Matsumoto, what was his data just now?"

The old man seemed a little helpless and embarrassed: "Well...Ayane-chan..."

"Grandpa Matsumoto, I'm just curious and I have no other thoughts about him." Sakura Ayane assured.

Grandpa Matsumoto finally told her Uehara Toru's physical data.

After hearing this, Sakura Ayane was stunned for a moment and blinked her eyes slightly: "Is it so exaggerated..."

"By the way, Grandpa Matsumoto, did you give him a discount?"

"Yes, he is your friend after all, Ayane-chan."

"Hehe, I will bring my father to your place more often in the future to buy a few more suits."

"Then I'll leave first~" Sakura Ayane said, and left the store.

-

After Sakura Ayane sent Uehara Toru home, she looked at him with a chuckle and asked, "Senior, should you say something to me?"

Uehara Toru glanced at her and peeled off the sticker on his face. He had noticed it when he was putting on his suit, but he had never bothered to mention it.

Now I can give it back to her.

"You tricked me, but you also helped me, so let's write it off."

"Huh?" Sakura Ayane looked at him tearing off the sticker and handing it to her, slightly surprised: "Senior, why do you have something like this on your face?"

Uehara Toru rolled his eyes and didn't want to talk to her.

Sakura Ayane laughed happily: "Then I'll go first, senior, I wish you a successful party~"

"Got it." As Toru Uehara turned around, he waved his hand with his back to her as a farewell.

Sakura Ayane's mouth corners slightly raised. She stuck the sticker on the side of her door handle, then found a similar sticker and stuck it on the left side of her cheek.

Just now, she applied the paste to Toru Uehara on the right side of his cheek.

This makes it symmetrical.

Humming a cheerful tune, Ayane happily drove away from Kawasaki.

Volume 99: Chapter Chapter Mom, I'm Broken-Hearted

After putting on an adult suit, Toru Uehara skillfully tied his tie in front of the mirror. The venue for tonight's banquet was set on the 39th floor of the Four Seasons Hotel in Otemachi, Chiyoda-ku.

It is said that the entire terrace restaurant has been booked, and there is also an open-air swimming pool on top, which can be said to be a place specifically for enjoyment.

Toru Uehara checked the official website and found that the price per night for this hotel's superior city view room (2 adults) is about 21 yen.

You can imagine how staggering the cost would be to book a restaurant like this for a night.

He drove his Honda and arrived at the hotel half an hour early, at seven o'clock. He took the elevator and went straight to the thirty-ninth floor.

The elevator door slowly opened, and what came into view was a bar with retro decoration. The dim lights created an ambiguous atmosphere, and the ears heard classic jazz music that could soothe the nerves.

At the bar, a young and handsome bartender was greeting him with a smile. On the bar were rows of crystal clear glasses, which were carefully stacked like an exquisite glass pyramid.

Toru Uehara glanced around and continued walking forward.

After a while, he saw about ten people gathered in front of him, including young girls dressed exquisitely and middle-aged men in suits with elegant temperament.

He didn't know them, but he smiled politely anyway.

"dad!"

"What's wrong, baby girl?"

“I think I’ve found true love.”

"?"

Uehara Toru did not hear the bold words of the girl behind him. He searched the crowd and finally found familiar faces at the front - Sumire Uesaka, Mrs. Uesaka, and Mr. Uesaka. They were talking to two white-haired old men.

Not far away, several young-looking scholars who didn’t care much about their appearance were sitting there. They seemed to be not quite used to this kind of occasion and looked a little reserved.

The bag in Uehara Toru's hand contained a scroll, which immediately attracted their attention, as well as the attention of others.

"Ah, Mr. Uehara, you're here."

When Mrs. Uesaka saw Toru Uehara, she immediately came up to him with a smile.

"This is Mr. Uehara, the teacher I have been learning from. His painting skills are so amazing that I can only look up to him but cannot learn his essence. To be honest, I am quite ashamed."

Toru Uehara was wearing a black suit today, which highlighted his figure and made him look energetic. His top-notch looks were good enough to appear on TV and immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

Uehara Toru smiled and nodded at everyone, and at the same time observed the scene. There were about 11 or 12 people at the party, so it was not a large gathering. Everyone was surprised that Uehara Toru was so handsome.

There were also female scholars who did not pay much attention to their appearance. When they saw Uehara Toru, they did not even dare to look him in the face. Although he was not young, they felt a long-lost shyness.

"Teacher Uehara, let me introduce you one by one. This is Professor Toshihide Nishida. He recently held an art exhibition called 'Phoenix' at Musashino University, which was very popular." Mrs. Uesaka said.

"And then there is Professor Hiramatsu Reiji, who is a visiting professor at Juntendo University, a director of the Japan Artists Federation, and a reviewer of the Japan Art Promotion Association. He skillfully combines the styles of Impressionism and traditional Japanese painting, and can be regarded as a master of Japanese painting."

When the two professors heard this introduction, they seemed a little embarrassed and responded modestly.

"Ma'am, you are too kind. It is not as great as you say."

"Yeah, I'm just an ordinary painter."

"If even you can only be considered a painter, then I really don't know how to paint in the future." Mrs. Uesaka complimented.

"The people here are teachers from Musashino University, Yamada, Akino, Kurokawa..." Mrs. Uesaka continued to introduce.

As Toru Uehara listened to Mrs. Uesaka's introduction, he couldn't help but be surprised at the identities and achievements of these people.

Professor Toshihide Nishida and Professor Reiji Hiramatsu are both heavyweights in the art world, and their achievements and status are obvious to all in the industry.

Under the guidance of Mrs. Uesaka, everyone at the scene was introduced. Although Toru Uehara did not change his expression, he was actually very surprised that these people could be invited.

Since they can invite big names of this level, does the Uesaka family really need this favor from me?
