Tokyo: I took in a homeless girl

"Am I finally going to be a rich lady?"

Upon hearing this, Miyazawa Maki's eyes lit up.

She grabbed Sawayama Haruno's collar without any hesitation and said excitedly, "Can you buy the video game store? I want to be the boss of the store manager sister!"

“Ahem, this is still a bit difficult.”

Sawayama Haruno coughed several times to hide his embarrassment.

It's not that I can't afford it, but I've asked the store manager to do so many things for me, and now I'm coming back to buy her store. I have an indescribable weird feeling.

"Tsk, I was just joking."

Miyazawa Maki pursed her lips and whispered, "I don't want those things, as long as you can accompany me a little longer."

"Maki."

Hearing this, Sawayama Haruno subconsciously hugged the other person in his arms.

His movements were very gentle, as if he was afraid of accidentally hurting Maki. The two people who loved each other snuggled up to each other tightly until the text message alert sounded, causing them to reluctantly separate.

It was a reminder of the time and place sent by the sushi restaurant that I had just made a reservation for.

Looking at the contents of the text message on her mobile phone, Maki Miyazawa embarrassedly straightened her clothes that had become messy at some point.

She turned her gaze back to Sawayama Haruno and said hesitantly, "It's not possible during this period. You said it last time. If you really want it, go find Suguha."

After saying that, she jumped off Sawayama Haruno's body and walked quickly towards the bathroom without looking back.

Only Sawayama Haruno, who looked confused, was left sitting on the sofa.

“It’s just a normal reaction.”

He lowered his head hesitantly and said uncertainly: "I'm not the kind of person who doesn't care about the situation or the occasion."

You should be this kind of person, Maki!

But if you look for Zhiye.

No, it always feels a little weird.

And it felt even weirder when he thought about Maki sleeping alone in another room while he was being so close to Suguha.

Even though the window paper between them was completely broken after the threesome incident in Macau, he and Suguha were still a little embarrassed to act too intimate in front of Maki.

Especially since the indoor sound insulation of this house is not very good, and the two rooms are close to each other.

I'd better wait until I buy a new house.

Zeshan Haruno rubbed his eyebrows, his expression a little complicated.

Chapter 302 Do you want to come together?

At the same time, Sawayama Haruno and Miyazawa Maki were not the only ones who had made an appointment to go out for lunch together at noon.

In a Chinese restaurant in Shinjuku district, Miyazawa Mana pushed open the heavy glass door and subconsciously looked around the store.

It was the peak lunchtime, but luckily the person who asked her out was a lively girl who was not at all shy even in crowded places.

"This way, this way~"

Ayano Yui sat in a seat further inside and waved at her vigorously.

Even from a distance, one could clearly sense her slightly cunning expression, and it went without saying that this dinner date was definitely "with ill intentions."

However, Miyazawa Mana finally walked towards the other party's location.

"Sorry, you're not late, are you?"

"No."

Ayano Yui waved her hand and said casually, "I just sat down too, and the boss hasn't even brought me water yet."

After saying that, she took the plastic menu next to her and handed it over.

"Here's the menu, Mana, order first."

"Thanks."

Miyazawa Mana took the menu and glanced at it carefully.

There were Chinese characters on it, but she could understand them.

It is better to say that most Japanese people can actually understand it. Even if there are some words that they are not very familiar with, they can probably guess it by combining the previous and following words or the pictures of the dishes.

What's more, there are many Chinese restaurants opened by Chinese in places like Shinjuku and Ikebukuro, and people have long been accustomed to menus full of Chinese characters.

“I want one.”

Miyazawa Mana watched for a while and called the waiter to order food.

After both of them finished ordering, Miyazawa Mana hesitantly picked up the water on the table and took a sip.

"Why did you suddenly ask me out today?"

“It’s a normal social activity.”

Ayano Yui crossed her fingers in front of her, stretched vigorously, and asked in confusion, "Mana-sister, are you a stay-at-home type? Today is the weekend, and you usually invite friends out for dinner on weekends, right?"

".That being said, you must have something else to do, right?"

Miyazawa Mana pursed her lips and asked tentatively: "Did Haruno ask you to ask me out for dinner?"

"Of course not."

Ayano Yui said innocently, "He will be taking Maki back the day after tomorrow, so why should I go out of my way to help him arrange a date with you?"

"Then why?"

"Hey, I wanted to talk about it after dinner."

Seeing that Miyazawa Mana was determined to get to the bottom of the matter, Ayano Yui could only sigh helplessly.

"It is indeed related to Haruno, um. Generally speaking, when a few of us girls meet together, the things we want to talk about will only be related to this guy, right?" She spread her hands and said.

Miyazawa Mana nodded in agreement.

It's not just when I'm with Ayano Yui and a few other girls, even when I'm at school, I can't avoid hearing the name Sawayama Haruno.

All this is thanks to Reina Uemura, who accidentally let slip the fact that Haruno Sawayama was writing a novel.

A particularly curious girl asked Haruno what book he had written. Unable to withstand the questioning, Uemura Reina finally told the truth, which resulted in a strange phenomenon.

——That is, after the classmates in the class learned that the author of the latest best-selling book was a classmate of theirs, they started talking about it one after another.

These days, wherever Miyazawa Mana goes, she can hear people whispering the three names "Norwegian Wood", "Fog Mountain Winter Sea" and "Sawayama Haruno".

Of course, the other party probably doesn’t know what happened in the school since he hasn’t been to school.

Thinking of this, Miyazawa Mana hesitated for a moment and decided to be more direct with the other party.

"Are you trying to tell me about Haruno and Maki getting married, or about Maki being pregnant?"

"Hey, so you know everything?"

Ayano Yui looked at her in surprise.

"Did Haruno tell you, or did Suguha?"

"Haruno said so himself."

"Really?" Ayano Yui sighed, a little depressed, "I wanted to see Mana-san's surprised and disappointed look, but I didn't expect someone got there first."

It might be a bit rude to talk like that, but that's just the kind of person the other person is.

Miyazawa Mana was not annoyed, but said helplessly: "I don't know why, after hearing these things, I was just surprised for a moment, and then my heart quickly returned to its calm state."

"Maybe it's because I had this feeling early on. I always felt that the progress between the two of them would be very fast. After all, Maki is the type who is easily spoiled, and Haruno happens to be the type who is more susceptible to softness."

"No matter what, getting married is necessary for the sake of the baby in the future," she whispered.

"Okay, let's stop here." Ayano Yui raised her hand and made a big X in front of her.

"Mana-sister should have already seen the relationship between Haruno and I, so I won't hide it any longer."

Ayano Yui said seriously, "Just so you know, I won't give up on either marriage or having a baby, so I'll keep pestering Haruno."

".Why are you telling me this?"

Miyazawa Mana's expression became a little unnatural.

As she guessed, Ayano Yui, who had always been by Sawayama Haruno's side, also had different thoughts about him.

This was exactly what Mana had expected, but she didn't expect the other party to say so openly, "I will always stick with Haruno." After all, this was equivalent to being an underground lover.

No. I'm afraid they can't even be considered underground lovers, after all, the other party has not been recognized by Haruno.

Perhaps only Suguha Ezaki can be considered an underground lover.

"I tell you this because I want to ask you"

Ayano Yui deliberately dragged out her tone and said with a smile: "Do you want to come together?"

She deliberately emphasized the last few words, and with her sly yet innocent expression, she looked like a little devil.

Miyazawa Mana was slightly startled.

But she quickly came to her senses and shook her head slightly.

"If Xiaowei wants to do something, just go for it. As for me."

She paused, looked at the plastic menu on the table, and said slowly: "Is it true that I still prefer to fight for it alone?"

".Really? I thought you were going to say you were going to give up or something."

Ayano Yui blinked, obviously a little surprised by Mana's answer.

He didn't agree to join his team, but he also didn't hurt Haruno by saying he would give in or make things right like he did before.

By the way, what happened to Mana-san during this period? Why did she change like this?

Ayano Yui didn't quite understand what was going on, but the current situation was still favorable to her, so she only worried about it for a moment and soon stopped taking it to heart.

"Forget it. No matter what, at least there is one good news that is certain." Ayano Yui said with a smile.

"what?"

Miyazawa Mana looked at the other person hesitantly.

Is there any good news in this?

Are the two of them competitors now?

"You think so."

Ayano Yui patiently explained, "If we both succeed in getting promoted, or even if neither of us succeeds, it won't affect our friendship, right?"

"After all, that person named Suguha was able to stay by Haruno's side as her secret lover, and Maki-san didn't seem angry or chase her away. On the contrary, they are still good friends."

"From this perspective, even if we both like the same man, we can still get along harmoniously."

Ayano Yui smiled complacently: "That's why I say this good news is certain. After all, there is a precedent there."

"."

Miyazawa Mana took a deep breath to hide her slightly twitching facial expression.

It is really unheard of to be able to analyze from this angle.

But what the other party said actually made sense. After all, Maki didn't seem to mind this aspect, not to mention that she was about to marry Haruno.

After marriage, her status will definitely be even more unshakable.

This was also one of the "plans" that Haruno came up with, using marriage as a means to increase Maki's sense of security.

"Will I have that opportunity after my sense of security increases?" Miyazawa Mana thought absentmindedly.

She has decided to follow her true inner thoughts.

This was the inspiration I got from a remark that Shiori Mine blurted out accidentally after having dinner with her some time ago.

The problem that I have always ignored is how much pain my self-righteous "good intentions" have caused Maki.

If that's the case, then she might as well follow her own wishes and compete with her sister.
