Zongman: I can modify the status bar

"Compared to a high-quality woman like you, I think we should have more common topics, right?"

Shizuka Hiratsuka had been feeling very unhappy since just now, but it was she who brought up this topic, so it was a bit unreasonable to turn hostile now. However, the other party's words were indeed becoming more and more excessive and more and more unreasonable. Shizuka Hiratsuka's professional ethics were on the verge of collapse.

"What? Are you scared? Are you afraid that you'll lose to a little girl like me?"

For some reason, Yukino's words suddenly became more extreme. Perhaps she still had some dissatisfaction with the other party in her heart that had not been vented, and she wanted to take this opportunity to express it.

Just when Shizuka Hiratsuka was about to show off her traditional skills and start cursing when she was unhappy, Haruki reached out and took the soda that Shizuka Hiratsuka had just taken a sip of, and drank it in one gulp without thinking.

And you drink it directly from mouth to mouth.

This silenced the two women again, and Shizuka Hiratsuka also dissipated her anger in stunned silence.

What should I do if Yukino on the opposite side is even taller than him?

"Indirect... kiss...?"

Haruki's move really showed off to all his teammates. You know, from the time they met yesterday to getting married today, apart from some necessary physical contact, they haven't even kissed!

This made Shizuka Hiratsuka's face turn red, and she turned into a steam engine and almost fainted. It was all because the weather was too hot.

"Ahem!" But when she realized that it was her husband who was helping her find trouble, Shizuka Hiratsuka's back straightened instantly. It was no use showing affection one-sidedly!

"If you're not convinced, you can try. I'm not the petty type. But let me be clear, now that I've won your request, shouldn't your [Service Club] work also be put on the agenda? My dear Minister, it would be difficult for me to handle this alone!"

Shizuka Hiratsuka changed the subject and talked about the [Service Club]. Yukino applied for this place just so that she could read quietly by herself. Shizuka Hiratsuka naturally helped here. Normally, the school would not allow a situation like Yukino being alone, so it was all Shizuka Hiratsuka's job.

Now that I've made concessions, it shouldn't be too much to ask the other party to carry out club activities properly, right?

"Okay, no problem. I'll find a way to deal with the club members, but don't get your hopes up too much. You know how popular I am."

"Okay, okay, I get it. Don't worry. Once things get lively here, my work will be a lot easier."

Yukino reached a rare consensus with Shizuka Hiratsuka in front of her, and the two of them stretched out their arms and shook hands at the same time.

"Well, may I know your name, sir? " Yukino looked at Haruki, and her originally sharp eyes became much softer.

"My name is Haruki..."

"It's Haruki Hiratsuka!" Shizuka Hiratsuka quickly corrected.

……

Chapter 273 She was the one who grabbed me

"Huh?" Yukino Maomao tilted her head, expressing confusion.

"Because his original last name was Hiratsuka, does that mean Hiratsuka-sensei's last name is Hiratsuka too?"

Yukinoshita Yukino's cognition is basically no different from that of ordinary people, and the same is true for such traditional things. She originally wanted to ask Haruki's name, and then change her address to Shizuka Hiratsuka as Haruki's surname + Shizuka + teacher, but she was still a little surprised to hear that Haruki's surname also was Hiratsuka.

“No, no, no…”

Shizuka Hiratsuka started to feel proud again, standing next to Haruki and pointing her index finger at Yukino.

"actually……"

Shizuka Hiratsuka was about to say something, but then she seemed to have thought of something and immediately swallowed her words.

"Don't worry about the details, it's not your concern!"

"Oh..." Seeing the change in the other person's expression, Yukino realized that she might have crossed the line. There was nothing wrong with being interested in other people's privacy, but asking questions like this would seem a bit impolite.

"My name is Yukinoshita Yukino, please give me your guidance."

Yukino stood up and gracefully extended her hand to Haruki.

"Yes! Please give me your guidance!"

Out of politeness, Haruki also stretched out his hand, but Yukino seemed to have her own little thoughts. As soon as Haruki stretched out his hand, Yukino held it tightly, and it seemed that she had no intention of letting go immediately.

The composition at this moment could be considered a famous scene from a certain photo album. Yukino and Haruki were standing in front, shaking hands, while his wife, Shizuka Hiratsuka, was glaring at them with displeasure.

"Hey! Have you had enough of holding it?"

Shizuka Hiratsuka finally couldn't bear it anymore. She wasn't angry with Haruki, but jealousy really made people change beyond recognition. What was wrong with this girl? How could she hold hands with a man she just met like this and not let go? You know, other male classmates would be labeled as "bugs" even if they secretly glanced at him, not to mention some normal contact. And now she is shaking hands with her husband like this. It seems that mine is quite tight?

"No, she was the one who grabbed me!"

Haruki was also innocent. He had done nothing wrong. As soon as he stretched out his hand, it was firmly grasped by the beautiful girl opposite him. However, he did not struggle or resist at all. That was indeed Haruki's fault...

Of course, this is just an excuse. Haruki felt that familiar feeling when his skin touched Yukino's. It was magic!

Originally, Haruki thought that he could absorb magic power as long as he got close to the other party, but now Haruki has a new understanding, that is, direct contact is actually more efficient. Through the contact of the palms, Haruki feels that his condition is better, which means that this is the right way to transmit magic power!

What Haruki didn't expect was that he didn't even realize he was the only one feeling comfortable. Because Haruki was able to replenish his magic power, his overall condition was naturally getting better and better. However, Yukino on the opposite side seemed to have changed as well. Her originally very cold expression gradually became much gentler while shaking hands with Haruki.

The snow-white face gradually turned crimson. In the quiet classroom, the only sounds were the breeze from the window and Yukino's panting...

"Okay! Have you touched enough? Let's stop here!" Shizuka Hiratsuka finally couldn't bear it anymore, and walked forward and fiercely split the hands of the two people who were in love.

"Really? Even I haven't been so wanton in physical contact with Haruki, and you, a little girl, are so reckless!"

Although Shizuka Hiratsuka did not express her thoughts directly, Haruki guessed it almost exactly. But to be honest, he really hasn't touched it yet, so he feels a little unsatisfied. Of course, he was talking about replenishing his magic, not anything else. He should compensate this "legitimate" wife later.

On the other hand, Yukino, after being separated from Hiratsuka Shizuka, slumped down on the chair, breathing heavily and her eyes were a little blurry, as if she had just finished running, and the snow-capped mountains that had been cold all year round seemed to have melted a little for some reason.

"What was that feeling just now? My head is still a little dizzy now. If possible, I want it again..." Yukino didn't understand what happened to her just now, but overall it felt pretty good?

When she looked up at Haruki in front of her again, her eyes had already taken on a different feeling. It might be a bit of an exaggeration to say that they were full of affection, but at least they were at a level that could be drawn to.

At first, Yukino just felt that Haruki was not a bad person, and she didn't feel any obvious discomfort even when he was alone with her. However, after the contact just now, Yukino found that she was extremely wrong.

How can this not be annoying or uncomfortable? If I can be with this person, I will feel very refreshed, as if the huge rock pressing on my chest has been smashed to pieces by the other person's punch. That feeling is fascinating.

"Okay, that's all for today. We're going home for dinner. You should go back early too!"

Shizuka Hiratsuka felt like she was going to explode if she stayed here for another second. She had originally thought this young lady was just a bit of a loner, but she was still okay...

But now Shizuka Hiratsuka's thoughts have changed. There must be something hateful about a pitiful person. She is a real beast. She doesn't even let go of her newlywed husband.

Shizuka Hiratsuka hurriedly pulled Haruki out.

But want to escape? Not that easy!

Seeing that the other party was about to leave, Xueno immediately ran in front of the two of them and blocked their way.

"Wait a moment!"

"? What's wrong? Do you have anything else to do?" Shizuka Hiratsuka said with a forced smile, even with a gritted teeth tone.

"Could you please leave your contact information? This is what everyone does when making friends, right?"

Yukino acted very cute and silly. The energy just now had passed. At least from the outside, she still looked like the cold and aloof young lady when they first met.

Shizuka Hiratsuka didn't say anything, but looked away, but the hand she was holding on Haruki was getting tighter and tighter. It was obvious what she was doing, as Haruki's EQ was not that low.

"Let's talk about it next time. We're in a hurry!" Haruki said to Yukino with a smile.

"Okay then..." Yukino was just getting carried away for a moment. She was the type of person who was very sensitive about relationships between people, so she just went along with the way Haruki gave her.

"See you!"

Haruki said goodbye to the beautiful girl in front of him and took Hiratsuka Shizuka's hand and left the activity room.

The two of them walked towards the underground parking lot, one in front and one behind, without saying a word on the way, as if they were having a quarrel, at least that's what it seemed like to outsiders.

But only they themselves know that it is not the case.

Actually, this is the first time that Shizuka Hiratsuka and Haruki have truly held hands.

Hiratsuka Shizuka's face had already turned red after being dragged all the way like this, and she seemed to have forgotten the farce just now.

……

Chapter 274 Shopping in the Supermarket

The two of them got into the car tacitly, fastened their seat belts and set off for home.

On the way, I remembered that there seemed to be nothing to eat at home, so I went to a large supermarket nearby.

Haruki pushed the shopping cart slowly and consciously, while Hiratsuka Shizuka acted as her wingman, putting the things she wanted to buy into the shopping cart as she passed by. If she saw something she was interested in, Hiratsuka Shizuka would take it and ask Haruki if he wanted it. Neither of them took the initiative to mention what had just happened.

Haruki was still a little uncomfortable with Hiratsuka Shizuka's aggressive shopping spree, where she only looked at the items and not the prices. However, when he thought of her mysterious identity and the luxury car now quietly parked in the supermarket parking lot, it suddenly made sense. This is what rich women do...

After a while, the huge shopping cart was full. As if she could see what Haruki was thinking, Shizuka Hiratsuka slightly restrained her thoughts of continuing shopping and took Haruki to the checkout counter to settle the bill.

There are also some self-service checkout machines nearby, but although you have to wait for a while if you use manual checkout here, at least you don’t have to do it yourself.

When it was Yaohui and the others' turn, they moved the food and drinks in the shopping cart to the checkout counter. The cashier would calculate the bill for them and pack them up, saving them a lot of trouble.

The cashier was also very efficient. Not long after I emptied the shopping cart, she had already calculated the bill and packed the items.

"Ma'am, if you spend over 1 yen, you can participate in a lottery. Today is membership day, so it's double the amount. Would you like to get anything else?" The cashier asked with a smile when Shizuka Hiratsuka took out her membership card to pay.

"..." Hiratsuka Shizuka, who was asked, searched the cash register, but after catching a glimpse of something that inspired her, she quickly turned her gaze back and said, "Or... forget it."

It's not that Shizuka Hiratsuka is used to spending lavishly and doesn't care about such small gifts, but her luck has always been very bad. No matter how many draws she wins, she will only get the minimum consolation prize.

But just as she was about to swipe her card to pay, a figure appeared in front of her.

"Get two more lighters!"

Yaohui casually took out two windproof lighters from the shelf nearby and handed them to the lady at the cashier counter. She smiled and nodded, and after calculating the bill, it was exactly 10,030 yen, which just met the standard for the lottery.

Shizuka Hiratsuka looked at Haruki with some surprise as he took the lighter, but she didn't say anything.

"Here are your lottery tickets. Turn right ahead and you can draw the prize!" The cashier packed the pile of goods into a shopping bag, and then handed two red lottery tickets to Shizuka Hiratsuka.

Shizuka Hiratsuka silently took the receipt and membership card, while Haruki picked up the packed shopping bag and walked towards the lottery area not far away.

"Why don't you come and draw the lottery... I always draw some useless things because I have bad luck." Shizuka Hiratsuka took the big bag and said.

"It's not that I have bad luck, it's that 95% of the prize pool are consolation prizes and thank you prizes for patronage." Yaohui is very experienced in these things. Although he doesn't buy lottery tickets very often, he has done this kind of thing of collecting points for lotteries many times.

"Then you should come. I haven't even gotten the remaining 5%..." Shizuka Hiratsuka thought back to the past 30 years. Forget it, I won't say more. It's all in the wine...

"Ah."

Even if the other party didn't say that, Yaohui would still go to draw the lottery. At least he heard the cashier say that members can get two chances to draw the lottery, so even if it is only one chance per person, it is actually fine. But since the other party doesn't want to verify his luck again, then he can do it for him.

Yaohui handed the lottery ticket to the staff, and then went to the lottery box to draw the lottery. The whole lottery process was also very simple. Some plastic balls like ping-pong balls would be put in the box, and there would be notes with words like second prize and third prize written on them. You would draw them out and hand the ball to the staff to open it on the spot. The prize would be the prize written on it.

Perhaps in order to make everyone more confident in the authenticity of the rewards, the signatures of lucky customers who won third prize or above will be recorded on the board next to it, which is authentic and verifiable, and there will be no such design that says there is no first or second prize at all.

Yaohui took a quick glance. Although he didn't see any first prize, there were still quite a few second and third prize winners. Besides, such a big supermarket wouldn't do anything fancy. The purpose was to give back to old customers. He believed that customers who won prizes would definitely be more willing to buy things here.

"Winning the third prize is pretty good! A small cooling cup means I don't have to keep my beer in the fridge. It's very practical." Seeing Haruki's serious expression, Hiratsuka Shizuka couldn't help but feel a little excited. Looking at the prizes on the stage, she envied the picture of a large watermelon on the second prize even more. "But as for the second prize..."

Although Shizuka Hiratsuka is not short of money, being rich does not mean she is not smart. She still believes in pragmatism in life. She will not consider things that are obviously a waste of money. This can be seen from the furnishings and decoration style of her home, which is simple and capable, without any fancy things.

She would not buy things like watermelon, which was expensive and unpalatable locally. For some reason, the watermelons in the supermarkets were not very tasty. She even needed to add some salt or sugar to eat them. They were far less delicious than those watermelon-flavored industrial products that were made with a lot of technology and hard work.

The consolation prize is a bag of classic "Fujiya" lollipops. Although I don't know how much it costs, it's acceptable to get a bag of candy for free. The third prize is the small cooling cup that Shizuka Hiratsuka just mentioned. It is a small appliance. You can pour wine or drinks into it and they will be chilled quickly. It is a must-have in the hot summer.

As for the second prize, it is a photo of a big watermelon, and there is nothing special about it at the moment.

As if noticing the two people's confusion, the staff began to tell the story of the "Watermelon Immortal" according to the picture. Although it was told in a very exaggerated way, it was just a story about a boss who, in order to grow delicious watermelons, imported high-quality soil and water to build a plantation to cultivate watermelons. These watermelons were different from the crooked and cracked ones produced locally. It was said that these watermelons were very delicious, very juicy and very sweet.

In short, it’s an old tradition to give you value before selling something to you.

However, it is said that it is not for sale because of limited production, so it is only used for activities to give back to old customers.

Good, good, this boss is still a loyal and honest person!

……

Chapter 275 Watermelon Immortal

In order to ensure that the watermelons eaten by customers are fresh enough, the boss has made special arrangements. That is, the watermelons will not be placed directly in the supermarket, but will be picked only after it is confirmed that someone has won the prize, and then delivered to the customer's home by an insured vehicle.

That’s why there is only one picture in the second prize.

After hearing this, Yaohui suddenly burst into tears. It seemed that he had been careless in mocking the boss in his heart just now. Now he was willing to sincerely call the boss "Watermelon Immortal"!

The first prize is a premium membership card for two people for a year-round free movie viewing at a well-known cinema.

With this card, two people can go to the co-branded cinema to watch movies for free. In theory, you can watch movies as many times as you want, but other things are not included. However, if you have this card, you can get a 20% discount on things like Coke and popcorn.

So they have done some calculations. No matter how well they calculate, you still have to spend money on these things. For example, sometimes when you buy a ticket, there will be activities like adding one dollar to get popcorn and Coke. In fact, the cost of those things is less than one dollar, but it is not a loss for customers to spend an extra dollar to get snacks and drinks. It is a win-win situation.

But if you really want to take advantage of this, then people will agree. It's not a big deal to invite you to watch a movie. Most of the screenings are not full, and the few that are are mostly empty. It's better to use it as a reward and promote it at the same time.

Before traveling through time, Yaohui worked as a security guard in a cinema. To put it bluntly, he was responsible for monitoring the surveillance cameras. His main job was to monitor whether there were any safety hazards or troublemakers in the cinema, as well as those who took advantage of the situation and sneaked in to watch movies without paying.

However, this kind of situation is generally ignored. There are only a few people here, and you are still chasing them away. They come here for free and haven't asked you for money yet!

After getting a rough idea of the prizes for the raffle, Haruki decided to try the whole watermelon to see if it was sweet. To be honest, he was a little tempted after hearing the staff's explanation just now. Of course, the more direct reason was that Shizuka Hiratsuka behind him also seemed to be interested in the watermelon. So, let's do it!
