He is an idol and a childhood sweetheart.

There was only one thing she could do at this time.

"No matter what...I will always be by your side."

Higuchi Enka's voice was as calm as ever, as if he was stating a natural fact.

"I will not disappear suddenly, nor will I leave you without a word... As long as you still need me, I will definitely be by your side."

"…………"

With the sound of fabric being rubbed, Higuchi Enka took the initiative to get close to Kento Watanabe, and stretched out her arms to hug his body.

Kento Watanabe did not put up any resistance at all, but was held in her arms very obediently, and quietly enjoyed his relaxation and indulgence at this moment.

(…That’s what growth is all about.)

The figure who was once tall, reliable, and mature enough to be almost out of reach was now so easily held in her arms.

His earnestness, hard work and tenderness were no lies, but behind that, there was vulnerability, one-sidedness and loneliness that she had never seen before.

He was no longer omnipotent, no longer indestructible, and no longer the "god" she once longed for.

She finally truly understood and got to know Kento Watanabe.

At the same time... she finally truly recognized her feelings for him.

The touch brought by the intimate contact made Higuchi Enka's desire begin to ache in the bottom of his heart.

The dependence and vulnerability shown by the person in her arms also made Higuchi Enka feel a more intense and charming impulse in her heart.

……

"Wise man."

"kindness?"

"Only tonight, only now... I hope you can put aside your role as 'producer' for a while."

"…………What are you still talking about now?"

Watanabe Kento smiled bitterly, looked up from Higuchi Enka's arms, and said:

"Producers will never be embraced by their idols."

"That means..."

"Tonight I am just 'Kento Watanabe', a worthless man who is acting coquettishly and complaining to his childhood sweetheart."

"…………This is what you said."

After hearing these words, the remaining reserve and defense in Higuchi Enka's heart finally collapsed.

So the next second, under the disbelieving gaze of Kento Watanabe, Higuchi Enka directly picked up the

touched Kento Watanabe’s cheek——

"Well!?"

This is revenge for the teasing just now, and it is also her complete farewell to her immature past.

From this day on, the man named Kento Watanabe will completely change from the object of Enka Higuchi's admiration... to the person she likes the most.

The specific duration of the fall is ten seconds in total.

Chapter 66: Which side is responsible?

When people are impulsive, they can easily take extreme and reckless actions.

Especially for a person who has suppressed herself for a long time, the emotional rebound caused by a momentary impulse may even cause a short-term change in her personality.

In contrast, people's reactions become very slow when they are depressed.

Sometimes, this dullness can even be so severe that the first kiss is taken away and the person cannot recover immediately.

Just like Kento Watanabe at this moment.

Obviously his consciousness was quite clear before this, but when the warm and moist touch came close, his brain immediately went into a state of panic.

And when he finally realized what happened, Higuchi Enka had already moved her lips away, turned her head and directly pressed the light switch on the bedside——

"……Good night."

After turning off the light, Higuchi Enka directly pulled the quilt upwards, and then the whole person shrank into the quilt.

Kento Watanabe, on the other hand, touched his lips with a blank expression in the darkness. It was not until he repeatedly confirmed with his fingers that the touch just now was not an illusion that he asked in a dull voice:

"Enka? What... that... happened just now?"

"........."

Higuchi Enka only trembled slightly when he heard this question and did not answer Kento Watanabe.

"Don't, don't stop talking!"

Kento Watanabe, who was eager for an explanation, quickly pushed Higuchi Enka's body gently.

"At least explain the reason! Huh? Enka?"

"........."

Even though her shoulders were shaken, Higuchi Enka still didn't intend to answer anything.

Faced with the "bulging" in front of him, who had no other reaction besides the ups and downs of his breathing, Kento Watanabe could only scratch his hair with a look of stupidity on his face, and then leaned on the bed again, using his only remaining brain. Capacity thought about the reason for this kiss.

……

…………

"What is there to think about? There is only one possibility..."

After a few seconds, Kento Watanabe, who gradually regained his consciousness, smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Higuchi Enka is not the kind of girl who lacks common sense. She must be well aware of what the act of kissing means.

So, a girl with basic common sense and an extremely calm and calm personality can take the initiative to offer her first kiss... No matter how you think about it, there is only one reason.

"Enxiang, you... really like me, right?"

"…………!"

After hearing this, Higuchi Enka couldn't help but tremble again under the quilt.

However, even though she was so shaken, she still closed her mouth firmly and didn't want to answer anything.

Kento Watanabe did not intend to continue to force him, but took a deep breath.

"Okay, next...you don't have to answer anything, just listen to me quietly."

"........."

The quilt moved up and down slightly, as if in agreement.

Immediately afterwards, after receiving a response from Higuchi Enka, Watanabe Kento said:

"Then, let me make a formal statement. Because I have just promised you well, everything I say next is said from the standpoint of 'Kento Watanabe' and the producer of Watanabe Agency. 'It doesn't matter."

Having said this, Kento Watanabe cleared his throat slightly, as if he wanted to symbolize the change in his identity in this way.

As for Kento Watanabe's pretentious behavior, Enka Higuchi bumped him lightly, as if urging him to speak quickly.

"First of all, I have to admit... I'm really happy."

Kento Watanabe explained his feelings very frankly:

"Being able to be liked by you, Enxiang, was something I never dared to think about in the past. After all... you know that, right? Until we solved the misunderstanding, I always thought you hated me. , so in my heart, you have always been the flower of the high mountains that I can't get close to... Wow!"

Before Kento Watanabe could finish speaking, a slender fist suddenly stretched out from the quilt and struck Kento Watanabe's side.

Obviously, Higuchi Enka was very dissatisfied with this description.

Kento Watanabe, who was attacked, quickly explained:

"But that's all in the past. Ever since we resolved the misunderstanding, I've never thought about it that way again!"

"........."

After Higuchi Enka heard this, he retracted his hand back into the quilt again.

Kento Watanabe continued:

"Since the day you decided to join the firm, you have become more than just a childhood sweetheart to me. You are the benefactor who saved me from the edge of despair, and the salvation that rekindled my hope. From then on After that, my feelings for you... were no longer limited to the feelings between childhood sweethearts or brothers and sisters, but became

It became something more complex. "

"Gratitude, trust, family affection, yearning... all kinds of emotions are intertwined together, turning into something that I can't describe at all. I don't know if this feeling can be defined as the so-called love... but anyway , you are undoubtedly the most special...and only existence in my heart."

"........."

Not only did Kento Watanabe feel very embarrassed when he said these words, but Enka Higuchi couldn't help but trembled when he heard this under the quilt.

Although his usual way of speaking is very frank and direct, what he just said is far more lethal than his usual straight shots.

But Higuchi Enka also knew naturally that after this blushing "reply", it would naturally be the reason for rejection.

Therefore, she was mentally prepared and quickly calmed down the throbbing in her heart, and continued to listen quietly——

"If I simply acted in accordance with this feeling, I would probably accept your confession without hesitation. But...as you know, I have never been in love since I was born, not even I haven’t even thought about it. In addition, my parents are very strange people, so I have never had a clear understanding of love and marriage.”

"Even if I don't have the identity of a producer, even if I don't consider your limitations as an idol, I don't dare to conclude my feelings so hastily... After all, you also know that Toru also confessed to me, and... I also Very happy and shaken at the same time.”

Having said this, Kento Watanabe showed a rather troubled expression.

"I don't know if this feeling is normal, and I don't know if this vain joy is correct... But anyway, I don't want to lie to you. I also hope that after listening to this, you can think about it again. .The person you like may be a scumbag who is ambiguous about feelings and even enjoys being 'pursued', so - hmm!?"

As soon as he heard the word "scum", Higuchi Enka immediately lifted the quilt, and very forcefully held up Kento Watanabe's cheek with his hands again, blocking Watanabe again with the exact same posture as before. The lips of a wise man.

However, this brief kiss seemed to be just to stop what he had not finished saying.

"This way of thinking that no matter what happens, you have to look for problems within yourself first...it's really annoying sometimes."

"円円円香?!"

"Don't be too self-righteous, Kento Watanabe. Asakura and I know better than anyone what kind of person you are! Otherwise, why do you think we would like you?"

Higuchi Enka stared fiercely at Kento Watanabe's eyes, her tone and eyes full of dissatisfaction with him:

"A virgin who even blames himself for rejecting someone's confession dares to call himself a scumbag? Stop joking. If you were really a scumbag, let alone the girls you met in high school and college, Asakura and I would have been I’ve already been eaten up and wiped clean by you, right? What’s the result? Even being kissed by a girl will make you so nervous that you can’t even speak properly. Calling you a scumbag is simply an insult to scumbags!”

"Eh……?"

"Also, it was clearly me who took the initiative to forcefully kiss you, so why are you starting to hate yourself now? Is there anything wrong with your brain?"

"…………"

Kento Watanabe, who was suddenly out of temper, was stunned on the spot.

At the same time, Higuchi Enka continued:

"I know you won't give me an answer right away, and I know you won't easily give up your current goals and our future as idols. I've known these things for a long time. The reason why I kissed you was just because I couldn't Just control your desires. I am the one who is responsible for this kiss, not you, do you understand?"

"That's what I said..."

Kento Watanabe muttered softly:

"But I always feel that I am the one taking advantage..."

"Heh, do you still want to take advantage of it?"

Higuchi Enka narrowed his eyes and asked:

"I'm always here to accompany you."

"Huh?! Ah... let's say goodbye for now..."

Kento Watanabe winced and said:

"If we continue to kiss you... I really won't be able to sleep tonight."

"……Humph."

After getting off Kento Watanabe with a blushing face, Higuchi Enka once again covered her body with the quilt.

"Anyway, I don't want to hear you say that kind of demeaning thing about yourself in the future. If you let me hear it again...you know the consequences, right?"

"How can you threaten others like this..."
