"Yes, what have you been busy with lately?"

Haruko asked.

"It's the same as always, I'm quite busy with work."

Kitahara Makoto smiled.

"But I can finally relax today."

"That's good. I've prepared a seat for you, please take a seat and I'll serve you the new dishes shortly."

As Haruko spoke, she led Kitahara Makoto to a window seat. Through the window, they admired the city lights gradually illuminating the night sky.

While waiting for Haruko to prepare the new cocktail for him, he chatted with Evelyn, the receptionist at Starlight Bar.

Evelyn was a young girl whose smile was as bright as the stars, giving people a warm and friendly feeling.

She noticed that Kitahara Makoto was sitting there alone, so she went up to him and started talking to him.

"Mr. Kitahara, are you here alone tonight?"

Evelyn asked with a smile.

"Yes, Evelyn."

Kitahara Makoto responded,

"Haruko invited me to try their new cocktail, so I came."

"Oh, Manager Haruko's new cocktail? I'm sure you'll be satisfied."

Evelyn spoke, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.

"The tavern is almost ready. When will it open?"

"I think it should be soon, just wait a little longer."

Kitahara Shin said with a smile.

The two hit it off immediately, discussing everything from the decor of the Starry Night Tavern to recent hot topics and their own hobbies, with the conversation constantly expanding.

Evelyn's wit and humor delighted Kitahara Makoto, while Kitahara Makoto's gentlemanly manners and extensive knowledge aroused Evelyn's great interest in him.

Soon after, Haruko walked over carrying a brightly colored cocktail...

Seeing Kitahara Makoto and Evelyn chatting happily, she couldn't help but join their conversation.

"Mr. Kitahara, this is a new cocktail for you, 'Starry Dream'."

Haruko placed the cocktail in front of Kitahara Makoto and introduced it,

"It combines the refreshing taste of various fruits with the rich aroma of wine. I hope you will like it."

"It looks beautiful, I will definitely taste it carefully."

Kitahara Makoto said, picking up his cocktail and taking a small sip, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.

Kitahara Makoto felt happy after sharing a specially made cocktail with Haruko at the Starlight Bar.

He also realized that his movie date with Mai Sakurajima was approaching. He glanced at his watch, stood up, and thanked Haruko before saying goodbye.

"Haruko, thank you so much for your hospitality. This drink is really wonderful."

Kitahara Makoto smiled and said,

"However, I have to go now, I have a movie date with Mai."

Haruko responded with a smile:

"You're welcome, Mr. Kitahara. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Since you have an appointment, I won't keep you any longer. I hope you and Ms. Mai have a pleasant evening."

Chapter 190 Kitahara Makoto: Mai's Going to the Movies

Kitahara nodded, turned, and walked towards the door. He took out his phone, found the contact information for the designated driver service in his contacts, and dialed the number.

"Hello, I need to call a designated driver," Kitahara Makoto said succinctly.

How long will it take to get to the Starlight Tavern?

The polite voice of the designated driver came from the other end of the phone:

"Hello, sir. We will arrange a driver for you shortly, and he should arrive in about ten minutes."

"OK, thanks."

Kitahara Shin hung up the phone and waited a short while.

Soon, he heard a car horn at the door, and he knew that the designated driver had arrived.

The designated driver arrived at the Starry Night Bar on time. He politely opened door 24, and Kitahara Makoto then got into the driver's seat of his Maserati.

The car interior exudes a faint scent of leather and the unique fragrance of a new car, giving it a comfortable and luxurious feel.

The designated driver was a middle-aged man in a neat uniform. He greeted Kitahara Makoto with a smile and asked for his destination.

Kitahara gave his home address, and the driver skillfully started the car.

As the roar of the engine gradually subsided, the Maserati slowly drove out of the Starry Night Tavern parking lot.

In the night, the light and shadow of the streetlights flowed across the car, adding a touch of mystery and prestige to this luxury sedan.

The car was quiet, with only a slight engine sound and the occasional sound of tires rolling.

Kitahara Makoto sat in the passenger seat, admiring the scenery along the way through the car window. The city's neon lights flickered in the night, like a flowing painting.

The designated driver was skilled, and the vehicle moved smoothly and quickly.

Soon, Kitahara Makoto's house came into view. It was a villa located in an upscale residential area, surrounded by green trees and in an elegant environment.

The chauffeur parked the car steadily in front of the villa, then got out and opened the car door for Kitahara Makoto.

Kitahara Makoto smiled and thanked the driver, then took out a few bills from his wallet as a reward.

"Thank you, you've worked hard."

Kitahara handed the money to the driver and expressed his gratitude.

The driver took the money, a satisfied smile spreading across his face.

You're welcome. Have a pleasant evening.

Kitahara Makoto nodded and said goodbye to the designated driver.

He stepped through the villa's gate, feeling a sense of ease and joy.

Kitahara Makoto pushed open the door to his home, and a familiar, warm atmosphere greeted him.

He looked around and noticed that the living room lighting was soft and warm, creating a comfortable atmosphere. His gaze naturally turned to the sofa, where Sakurajima Mai had already changed her clothes and was sitting quietly waiting for him.

Mai Sakurajima wore an elegant dress, the hem of which swayed gently, exuding an graceful and refreshing aura.

Her hair was carefully tied into a low ponytail, making her look both neat and gentle. A faint smile graced her face, and her eyes sparkled with anticipation.

When Kitahara Makoto saw Sakurajima Mai, a warm feeling welled up in his heart.

He strode to the sofa and sat down next to Mai Sakurajima.

347 Their eyes met in the air, as if an invisible bond was tightly connecting them.

"Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Kitahara asked softly, his tone full of apology and concern.

Mai Sakurajima shook her head and answered with a smile:

"No, I just arrived recently. You look tired, why don't you rest for a bit?"

Kitahara Shin shook his head, indicating that he wasn't tired.

He reached out and took Sakurajima Mai's hand, feeling its warmth and softness.

The two looked at each other and smiled, as if all their fatigue and worries had vanished in that moment.

"Let's go, the movie is about to start."

Kitahara Makoto suggested.

Chapter 191 Mai, You Drive

Kitahara Makoto sat on the sofa, looking at Sakurajima Mai, and suddenly realized that although he had a good grasp of the alcohol content, it was still not advisable to drive for safety reasons.

He looked apologetically at Mai Sakurajima, about to suggest finding a designated driver, but Mai Sakurajima had already stood up, walked to the door, and picked up her car keys.

"I'll drive. You've been drinking; you're not fit to drive."

Mai Sakurajima's voice was gentle yet firm. She turned to look at Makoto Kitahara, her eyes shining with concern.

A warm feeling washed over Kitahara Shinichi. He smiled, nodded, and got up to walk toward the door.

The two walked out of their house together and arrived at Mai Sakurajima's BMW Mini.

The little car looked particularly playful and cute in the night, its white body contrasting sharply with the surrounding darkness, like a bright pearl in the city.

Mai Sakurajima skillfully opened the car door and got into the driver's seat.

Kitahara Masanori walked around to the passenger seat and gently closed the car door.

The car was filled with a faint fragrance that blended with Mai Sakurajima's scent, creating a very comfortable atmosphere.

Mai Sakurajima started the car, and the BMW Mini slowly drove out of the residential area, heading towards the movie theater.

Kitahara Makoto leaned back in his seat, admiring the night view outside the window, his heart filled with gratitude and happiness.

As the BMW Mini slowly drove out of the residential area, Mai Sakurajima held the steering wheel firmly, her eyes focused intently on the road ahead.

Night gently enveloped the city, and the streetlights cast dappled shadows on the car windows, their shapes constantly changing as the vehicles moved.

Kitahara Makoto sat in the passenger seat, occasionally glancing out the window, but more often, he chose to quietly watch Sakurajima Mai's profile.

Her face looked exceptionally serene under the soft lighting, her eyes revealing her focus on the road conditions and her anticipation for the upcoming movie.

A faint fragrance filled the car, a blend of Mai Sakurajima's unique scent and the fresh air inside, making Kitahara Makoto feel comfortable and relaxed.

He gently adjusted his posture, leaning back in his seat to make himself more comfortable.

The scenery outside the car window kept receding, and the city's neon lights shimmered charmingly under the night sky, as if adding a touch of romance to their date.

Mai Sakurajima's driving skills were very proficient. The vehicle navigated the congested roads with ease, and she never felt any bumps or discomfort.

Finally, the vehicle slowly drove into the movie theater's parking lot.

Mai Sakurajima skillfully parked the car in an empty space and then turned off the engine.

She turned her head and gave Kitahara Makoto a gentle smile, as if to say:

"We've arrived."

Kitahara Shinya returned a smile.

The two walked hand in hand into the movie theater, where a faint aroma of popcorn and the unique atmosphere of the film greeted them.

The cinema was dimly lit, and trailers were playing on the big screen as audience members gradually found their seats.

They chose to sit in the back, surrounded by audience members who were either whispering or waiting for the movie (okay, Zhao) to start.

Kitahara Makoto and Sakurajima Mai exchanged a smile and chatted quietly about the upcoming movie.

Suddenly, the sound of pattering rain came from outside. They looked up at the window and saw that it had started to rain.

Raindrops pattered against the window, making a crisp sound, as if providing accompaniment for the movie that was about to begin.

The rain intensified, blurring the view of the streets outside the movie theater. Streetlights flickered in the rain, casting a soft, warm glow.

Chapter 192 "The Restaurant Boy and the Naive Girl"

Raindrops hit the ground, splashing up in tiny sprays before quickly disappearing into the darkness.

The movie theater was well soundproofed; although the sound of rain outside was clearly audible, it did not affect the audience's viewing experience.

On the contrary, the sound of the rain added a peaceful and comfortable atmosphere to the entire movie theater.

Kitahara Makoto and Sakurajima Mai leaned back in their seats, quietly waiting for the movie to begin.

As the lights in the movie theater gradually dimmed, the film "Restaurant Boy and Naïve Girl" began playing on the big screen.

Kitahara Makoto and Sakurajima Mai sat in their seats, holding their breath as they waited for the story to unfold.

The story takes place on a hot summer day. In the restaurant in the picture, the boy Ke Shouchun is busy shuttling between the tables.
