Tokyo: Love Begins with Controlling the Rich Girl

Shimada Sho sat in the middle, feeling extremely uncomfortable under their gaze.

He picked up his chopsticks and pretended to eat.

Yuki Ayase immediately and attentively picked out several pieces of food from her box and gave them to him.

While Shimada Sho was engrossed in eating, she would occasionally ask if it was delicious, and then eagerly explain how the dishes were made.

Her tone was natural, and her actions were intimate, like she was entertaining her boyfriend's first love.

Even so, Yukine Kamishiro, sitting opposite her, remained silent.

She watched this scene without any change in expression.

But Shimada Sho felt that the smile on her lips was getting stronger and stronger.

As a result, I also felt a little uneasy.

What does the young lady mean by this?

She wasn't angry or jealous; she just smiled at him, completely baffled as to what she was thinking.

He lowered his head to eat, trying to make his expression look natural.

At that moment, Yukine Kamishiro suddenly spoke up, "Shimada-kun."

"Hmm?" Shimada Sho looked up.

There's a grain of rice stuck to the corner of your mouth.

Shimada Sho instinctively reached out to touch it.

"To the right," Yukine Kamishiro reminded him.

Shimada Sho touched a grain of rice, took it off, and placed it on the table.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Yuki Ayase watched the interaction between the two from the side, her smile fading for a moment, but quickly returning.

"Sho-kun, the soup is getting cold, drink it while it's hot." She pushed the soup bowl in front of Shimada Sho.

Shimada Sho picked up the soup bowl and took a sip.

"Is it good?" Yuki Ayase asked expectantly.

"Delicious."

"Then drink more!"

She brought her own as well.

Shimada Sho drank a few more mouthfuls as a perfunctory gesture.

He appears calm on the surface, but his mind is full of questions.

The young lady's appearance is really strange.

He said he had something to do and needed to come to the activity room, but after we came together, he never said what it was about.

Yuki Ayase didn't seem inclined to ask any questions.

That would have been bad enough, but now that Yuki Ayase has openly provoked her, she remains completely calm.

It's really incomprehensible.

However, Shimada Sho's doubts did not last long.

Soon, there was a knock on the door of the activity room.

"Please come in," Yukine Kamishiro responded upon hearing the noise.

The door was pushed open, and the homeroom teacher, Natsumi Yonekura, walked in with a document in her hand.

She saw the three people sitting on the sofa, her gaze lingered on Yukine Kamishiro for a moment, and then looked away.

"They're all here, that's perfect." Natsumi Yonekura said to herself as she walked to the coffee table and opened the documents in her hand.

"The school has issued a new notice. The Kamishiro Foundation requires that the management of club activities be strengthened. Each floor must have a supervisor to oversee the implementation of club activities."

"Supervisor?" Ayase Yuki looked up, her face full of confusion. "What do you mean?"

"That means that from now on, all club activities and daily operations will have to be reported to the floor supervisor."

Natsumi Yonekura explained by taking a paper notice from the folder and placing it on the table.

Shimada Sho glanced at the document, then looked at Ayase Yuki.

She seems genuinely unaware of the situation.

As the daughter of a school board member, she should be informed of any arrangements made by the school's senior management as soon as possible.

"The supervisors from the other floors haven't arrived yet. Since you're here on this floor, Kamishiro-kun, you'll take on the responsibility of supervising club activities from now on."

When Natsumi Yonekura spoke again, it was to Yukine Kamishiro.

Upon hearing this, the young lady nodded gently, "I understand, teacher."

As soon as she said it, Ayase Yuki's smile froze on her face.

The atmosphere in the activity room froze.

Shimada Sho turned his head to observe Kamishiro Yukine.

The young lady sat on the sofa, her previously faint smile now fully revealed.

Her amber eyes looked at Yuki Ayase.

Although no emotion was immediately apparent, Shimada Sho clearly read a sense of composure and confidence in those eyes.

The Kamishiro Foundation's regulations on association reform, supervisors...

This is the young lady's counterattack!

She waited patiently for Ms. Yonekura to announce the arrangement.

I knew this step would come eventually.

Yuki Ayase disagreed with the young lady's application to join the company.

Shimada Sho thought she had given up.

But now it seems that the young lady has not given up at all.

She was just waiting for a legitimate reason that would allow her to walk into the activity room openly and irrefutably.

In retrospect, she succeeded.

Yuki Ayase put down the chopsticks she had picked up, and the smile on her face vanished completely.

"Supervisor?" She looked up at the person opposite her.

Yukine Kamishiro nodded. "Yes, it was arranged by the school. I just found out."

"Is that so?" Ayase Yuki sneered. "Then I'll have to trouble Yukine from now on."

“No trouble at all. I don’t participate in any clubs anyway, so I have time.” Yukine Kamishiro’s expression remained unchanged.

As she has always been, she remained calm and composed.

Even though it disrupted the school's future plans, it felt like accomplishing a trivial task.

Their eyes met in the air.

With Shimada Sho right in the middle of his line of sight, he felt uneasy for the first time.

"That's settled then, Kamishiro-kun, the club activities on this floor are now in your hands."

After closing the document and confirming the arrangements, Natsumi Yonekura turned and walked out of the activity room.

The moment the door closed, the activity room fell silent.

Yuki Ayase leaned back on the sofa, arms crossed, looking at Yukine Kamishiro across from her.

Yukine Kamishiro leaned back on the sofa, arms crossed, looking at Yuki Ayase across from her.

Shimada Sho sat in the middle, feeling like a piece of cloth being pulled by two forces.

“Sho-kun.” Ayase Yuki suddenly spoke.

"what happened?"

"You have class this afternoon, you should go back to the classroom first."

"Okay." Shimada Sho felt as if he had been granted a pardon and stood up from the sofa.

"Shimada-kun," Yukine Kamishiro said, "Let's go together. I need to check on the club activities on this floor."

Shimada Sho glanced at Ayase Yuki, then at Kamishiro Yukine.

"it is good."

The two walked out of the activity room and down the corridor.

The hallway was quiet, with only the sound of two people's footsteps echoing in the empty space.

“Kamishiro-kun,” Shimada Sho said.

"Ok?"

"Did you request to be the supervisor?"

Yukine Kamishiro walked forward with steady steps. "It was arranged by the school."

"Really?"

"Really." Her tone was flat, revealing no flaw.

Shimada Sho had no choice but to look away and continue downstairs. "Okay."

Although the young lady said it was the school's arrangement.

Even a fool would know that the school wouldn't be so idle as to assign supervisors to clubs.

It must be the major financial groups that have stepped in.

“Shimada-kun,” Yukine Kamishiro suddenly spoke.

Shimada Sho turned his head and noticed that she had slowed down.

"You said you came to the club for something, can you tell me what it is?"

As she spoke, she stopped and looked at Shimada Sho.

Their eyes met, and an undisguised mockery shone in them.

"...Let's eat." This time, Shimada Sho chose to confess honestly.

Chapter Eight: Is my sister still angry?

"It seems that Shimada-kun can be honest after all."

After admitting that she was there to have a meal, Yukine Kamishiro gave a faint smile.

When he spoke, his tone was, of course, playful.

Shimada Sho gave a wry smile.

He tried to fool them, but he got caught red-handed, which was quite embarrassing.

However, once it's admitted, there's not much to explain.

After leaving the activity building, he quickened his pace and headed towards the teaching building.

Yukine Kamishiro followed behind him with light steps.

"Shimada-kun."

She spoke again as she entered the teaching building.

Shimada Sho turned around and heard her ask, "Do you have time tomorrow?"

"What's wrong?" Shimada Sho didn't answer immediately.

Tomorrow is Friday, and he still has classes. If it's after school, he can ask for leave.

"Regarding the Sasaki family," Yukine Kamishiro's tone returned to calm as she explained, "the shop's paperwork has been completed, but there are still some property rights issues regarding the house that haven't been resolved. We need you to act as a witness."
