Tokyo: Love Begins with Controlling the Rich Girl

On Wednesday, Shimada Sho went to school as usual.

As he entered the school gate, he glanced in the direction of the rain pavilion.

Ayase Yuki was not seen.

Shimada Sho was somewhat surprised.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. She's only on duty in shifts; she can't possibly stand guard at the gate every day.

I habitually slowed my pace as I walked through the school gate, but I always felt like something was missing.

It feels a bit strange without her sarcastic, almost mocking way of greeting me every day.

"Shimada-kun!"

Takada Kenta's voice came from behind. Shimada Sho turned around and saw him and Murakami Yosuke jogging after him.

"What are you doing here?" Shimada Sho slowed down to wait for them.

"I saw you at the school gate just now. You were walking too fast." Kenta Takada was panting, but his excitement hadn't diminished at all. "Shimada-kun! Did you hear?!"

"What did you hear?"

"Chizuru-chan! Chizuru-chan is transferring to our school!" Kenta Takada pulled out his phone, the screen lit up, showing a push notification for an entertainment news article.

Popular idol Chizuru Amami announces her transfer to Dongli High School, adding another major topic to campus reforms.

Shimada Sho glanced at the title and asked without changing his expression, "And then?"

"And then?! Aren't you excited at all?!" Yosuke Murakami's glasses practically slipped down to the tip of his nose. "That's Chizuru-chan! A real idol! She's going to be our classmate!"

"Wasn't this already rumored?"

"That's different! This time it's an official announcement!" Kenta Takada shoved his phone in Sho Shimada's face. "Look, look, it was posted last night, by the agency's official account, and Chizuru-chan's own account also reposted it!"

Shimada Sho pushed the phone away, saying, "Okay, okay."

"What kind of reaction is this!" Kenta Takada exclaimed in anguish. "Our Chizuru-chan fan club is already planning our welcome activities, and you, Shimada-kun, as the honorary president and face of the club..."

"How come I have another job?"

"Because you're handsome," Murakami Yosuke replied matter-of-factly.

Shimada Sho shook his head speechlessly.

These guys really love to act on their own.

But being recognized as handsome is a good feeling.

Chatting casually, the three of them walked into the teaching building.

Many students in the corridor were also discussing the transfer of Tenkai Chizuru, and the atmosphere was much more lively than usual.

Even in the classrooms we passed, discussions were taking place.

But Shimada Sho noticed something.

It seems no one is discussing Yukine Kamishiro.

The news that the young lady had transferred to Dongli High School was completely unheard of outside.

It's likely that the Kamishiro family deliberately suppressed the news.

After all, the young lady is a chaebol heiress and doesn't need to rely on her fame to create hype like an idol.

Her safety is more important than anything else, and enrolling in school discreetly is the safest approach.

Sho Shimada walked into Class A classroom, his thoughts wandering.

Hoshino Yuuki had arrived, her familiar ponytail tied high, and she was looking down at a book.

Hearing footsteps, she looked up at Shimada Sho, then lowered her head again expressionlessly.

"Good morning," Shimada Sho greeted him.

“…Good morning.” Hoshino Yuuki replied without looking up.

Shimada Sho walked to his seat and took out his textbook from his bag, only to find that there was something extra in his desk drawer.

It is a bento box wrapped in cloth.

He took it out and glanced at it; it was filled to the brim with food.

“Mom asked me to bring this to you,” Hoshino Yuzuki explained without turning her head. “She said convenience store food isn’t nutritious and that you should eat what’s at home.”

The lunchbox was still slightly warm.

"Please thank Auntie for me."

"Thank me yourself."

Shimada Sho smiled gently and put the bento box back on the table.

Just then, the homeroom teacher, Ms. Yonekura, walked into the classroom in high heels.

"Quiet down, everyone, return to your seats."

She stepped onto the podium, her expression unusually solemn.

After all the students were seated, he announced, "We have a new student transferring to our class today."

As soon as he finished speaking, a cacophony of whispers erupted from below.

"A transfer student?"

"Is that Chizuru-chan?!"

"No, Chizuru-chan's official announcement said it won't arrive until next week."

Who is that?

Yonekura Natsumi pushed up her glasses and glanced at the whole class.

"Come in."

Following her voice, footsteps led a slender figure into the classroom.

Her long, silvery-white hair gleamed with a cool sheen in the morning light.

Her amber eyes were like deep pools, and her graceful movements made her seem like a fairy stepping out of a painting.

The dark blue school uniform she wore gave her an air of otherworldly elegance.

Upon seeing her, all the students in the class held their breath.

The classroom instantly became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

In the back row, Shimada Sho looked on with an incredulous expression.

"How could this be!"

He knew the young lady would transfer schools, but he never expected her to appear directly in his class.

Because of Ayase Yuki's presence, he instinctively assumed that the young lady would go to Class C.

But she cleverly walked into Class A.

This was quite unexpected.

"Kamishiro, please introduce yourself to everyone."

On the stage, Natsumi Yonekura waited for Yukine Kamishiro to come up and then gently guided her to introduce herself.

The silver-haired girl walked to the front of the classroom, picked up the chalk, and wrote her name on the blackboard.

Kamishiro Yukine.

Her handwriting was neat and elegant, just like her personality, which exuded a cool and aloof air.

"Kamishiro Yukine." After writing it, she turned around, placed her hands together in front of her, and opened her mouth without any expression on her face.

Her voice was ethereal and flat, without a single inflection: "Please take care of me."

There was no unnecessary self-introduction, nor any polite words.

After saying that, he put down the chalk, his amber eyes calmly looking ahead.

The classroom was quiet for a moment.

Immediately—

Wow!

"The Age of Gods?"

"Is it that chaebol's Kamishiro!?"

"How is that possible! Why would the Kamishiro Zaibatsu send their descendants here?"

Whispers rose like a tide, impossible to suppress.

Chapter 133 Shimada-kun, you don't want your family to be sunk in Tokyo Bay, do you?

Shimada Sho's seat was in the back row by the window.

Because of the distance, it was possible to observe from afar.

The silver-haired girl on the podium looked exactly like the one he saw in the mirror when he logged in last night.

The only difference was that she seemed a bit more genuine than she had been the night before.

Long eyelashes cast faint shadows in the dim morning light.

Her fingers were slightly curled at the hem of her skirt, and her chest rose and fell slightly with each breath.

She was standing right in front of me, separated only by a few desks.

This face-to-face interaction in a real sense far surpasses any previous login.

Even the physical exploration that took place last night, which went completely beyond a normal relationship, cannot compare.

"Quiet." Natsumi Yonekura tapped on the podium.

Once the noise in the classroom subsided.

She glanced at the classroom, then turned and said, "Kamishiro-kun, please sit down..."

Yonekura Natsumi's gaze swept across the classroom.

Because of yesterday's exam, several students who did not perform well were removed from Class A, and since no new students were added to fill the vacancies, there are quite a few empty seats.

The first thing she looked at was the front of the classroom, the area closest to the podium.

Shimada Sho noticed Yonekura-sensei's gaze and breathed a sigh of relief.

The seat behind him was also empty.

But given the young lady's grades and the importance that teacher Yonekura places on her, she definitely won't be allowed to sit here.

That's good; it will make things much easier for him.

"Please sit here."

Sure enough, Natsumi Yonekura pointed to the empty desk in the front row near the door.

But after she finished speaking, Yukine Kamishiro did not move.

Her gaze swept across the classroom, lingered for a moment on that empty seat, and then turned to Natsumi Yonekura.

"Teacher," she asked slowly, her voice still calm, "may I sit in the back?"

She didn't specify which location.

But when the students heard this, they all looked back and their eyes fell on Shimada Sho.

The only empty seat in the back row was the one behind Shimada Sho.

Yonekura Natsumi paused for a moment.

However, she didn't say much, just smiled and nodded, "Of course, you can sit behind Shimada Sho."

The board of directors specifically instructed that the eldest daughter of the Kamishiro family must be taken good care of.

Let alone changing seats, she would agree without hesitation to rearrange the entire classroom.

Yukine Kamishiro nodded slightly in thanks, then stepped down from the podium.

All eyes followed her from front to back, until she sat down, then looked at Shimada Sho in front of her, filled with envy.
