Tokyo: I took in a homeless girl

"I see."

Knowing that the other party was implicitly ordering him to leave, Sawayama Haruno smiled bitterly and had no choice but to leave with the other party.

Fortunately, on the way back, Miyazawa's father did not continue to make things difficult for him, but just told him some interesting things that happened during the business trip from time to time.

After being sent back to the apartment, Sawayama Haruno did not forget to thank the other party after getting off the car, and then slowly went home.

"It's a world for two"

Sawayama Haruno touched his face and couldn't help but smile.

Not only do they get a chance to be alone together, but they can also see Maki slowly reconcile with her family. This can be said to be a win-win situation.

It would be great if I could completely resolve the knot between Maki and her family this time, and I would just have to find a way to slowly win Mana back.

"Things have gone around in circles for so long, and finally have come to this point." Sawayama Haruno said to himself with emotion.

"What's going around in circles?"

The sudden voice interrupted Sawayama Haruno who was about to take the elevator. He turned back in a daze and found that the person who had just spoken to him was one of the managers of the apartment, Kazuki Takashima.

"Mr. Takashima, long time no see." Sawayama Haruno greeted him subconsciously.

"Oh, it's been a while." Takashima Ikki scratched his head and chuckled, "I went back to my hometown a while ago and got scolded by my family. They forced me to get married soon."

"Get married soon? With that girl from last time?"

Hearing this, Zeshan Haruno immediately became interested.

He joked, "When I was in Macau earlier, I saw a photo of you with another young-looking girl. That must be Mr. Takashima's girlfriend, right?"

"Well, that one is already an ex-girlfriend."

Takashima Kazuki looked a little embarrassed.

"Huh? Has she become my ex-girlfriend so quickly?"

"She said that the star player of the school's baseball club suddenly confessed to her. I never expected something like this to happen."

Takashima Kazuki sighed, looking a little hopeless.

But after noticing Zeshan Haruno's slightly sympathetic look, he straightened his back instantly and said as if nothing had happened: "It's nothing, I wasn't serious in the first place. To be honest, I've wanted to break up for a long time, and it just so happens that the other party brought it up now."

"Let's not talk about this anymore. I have something for you."

Takashima Kazuki casually changed the subject, fumbled around his body for a while, and then took out three more pieces of paper.

"what is this?"

Sawayama Haruno took it with a confused look and saw that it said "hot spring hotel invitation ticket".

"How should I put it? This is one of the benefits given to us by the group."

Takashima Ikki scratched his head and explained, "But I took leave to go back home, so I can't take any more time off. And these coupons are only valid this week, so I just thought I'd give them away."

"Don't you have two girls at home? Take them with you when the time comes. This is a luxurious hotel that offers mixed bathing and private hot spring baths."

"If the hotel wasn't one of our group's businesses, I wouldn't have been able to get such a luxurious experience voucher." He said somewhat proudly.

"Hey, are you really giving it to me?"

Looking at the invitation ticket in his hand, Sawayama Haruno suddenly felt excited.

Although the weather is getting colder now, hot spring bathing is not limited to winter or summer.

Moreover, the above location didn't seem to be very far away. Sawayama Haruno estimated in his mind that he didn't even need to take the Shinkansen, and could probably get there by just transferring to the train.

"really."

Takashima Kazuki waved his hand and added, "I heard from that girl last time that you and Miss Miyazawa are planning to get married, right? Just don't forget to invite me to the wedding."

"It's still early for the wedding."

After putting away the invitation ticket, Zeshan Haruno said with a smile: "The earliest I can expect is next year, but I will definitely treat you then."

Although Takashima Kazuki's mouth is a bit unbearable, it is undeniable that this guy is quite generous and enthusiastic most of the time.

He has lived here for more than half a year. The other party is the apartment manager that Sawayama Haruno is most familiar with. He has also received a lot of help from the other party. Therefore, when holding the wedding, Sawayama Haruno also plans to invite the other party to attend.

Chapter 308: Secretly Embracing Shiori

After chatting with Kazuki Takashima for a while downstairs, Sawayama Haruno slowly went upstairs.

The first thing that rushed to greet him when he opened the door and returned home was, as expected, the cute white kitten.

For some reason, Salmon Maru has been particularly excited these days, and he became even more excited after seeing Sawayama Haruno.

He had just entered the door and had not had time to take off his shoes when the kitten was already pulling up his pants and trying to climb up, obviously hoping that Sawayama Haruno could pick it up.

"Good~"

Seeing that the other party was so clingy, Sawayama Haruno had no choice but to pick it up after taking off his shoes.

After holding her in his arms for a while, he explained with a smile: "Your mother will stay in her own home for a few days. I guess she won't be back for the time being."

"Meow~"

Salmon Maru found a comfortable position in Sawayama Haruno's arms and lay down, calling out lazily as if to say that he didn't really care about this matter.

Although he didn't know whether the other party understood what he meant, seeing how cute the salmon balls were, Sawayama Haruno couldn't help but RUA a few times.

After sucking enough, he held the other person and walked towards the living room with some curiosity.

"Suguha, are you home?"

Sawayama Haruno called out, but received no response.

After turning the corner, he saw the other person taking a nap on the sofa.

Suguha Esaki's sleeping face was very peaceful, her long, soft hair spread out on the sofa, revealing her perfect and delicate face. Her slightly open mouth gave her a delicate look that was inconsistent with her usual temperament.

It was at this moment that Sawayama Haruno suddenly realized that the other party's actual age seemed to be the youngest among the few people.

However, due to the other party's usual calm appearance, it is difficult for people to notice this.

"Um"

As if she noticed someone staring at her, Ezaki Suguha, who was still sleeping soundly, frowned subconsciously. After a cold snort, she opened her eyes in a daze.

"Haruno."

His voice was a little hoarse, but since he had just woken up, hoarseness was normal.

Suguha Ezaki leaned on the sofa, sat up and looked at Sawayama Haruno in confusion, as if she didn't realize why the other party came back so soon.

"Is things going more smoothly than expected?"

Sawayama Haruno thought for a moment and said in a somewhat uncertain tone, "But we have discussed it for the time being because Maki seems to have something to say to her family, so we decided not to come back for the next few days."

He paused, then added: "Then because of an unexpected incident, I was also sent back early."

If it was really an accident, he would say don't kiss secretly at Miyazawa's house.

As a result, he was caught red-handed by Miyazawa's father and was sent back without even having lunch.

Sure enough, the other party must still be a little angry in his heart. After all, he had raped his two daughters, and one of them was pregnant.

But anyway, I might as well come back early. It just so happens that Takashima Kazuki gave me a gift ticket.

"Here, the person in charge of the apartment downstairs just gave it to me."

Thinking of this, Sawayama Haruno simply took out the invitation ticket.

He handed it to the still confused Ezaki Suguha and said with a smile, "It's valid only this week. I happen to be free during this period. How about we go together?"

".Eh?"

Suguha Ezaki took the invitation ticket, smoothed her messy hair with her hand, and looked at the contents on the ticket.

"Is it okay? Can't you take Maki with you?"

"It shouldn't matter. That guy said he wanted to have a good chat with his family and Mana, and I don't want to interfere with their family's affairs."

Sawayama Haruno stroked his chin and said casually, "Besides, she herself agreed to our relationship. She even encouraged it before she came back."

".Like something she would do."

Ezaki Suguha rubbed her brows and regained some consciousness. She smiled and said, "Of course, I don't have anything special to do next. My driving lessons won't start until the next two weeks."

"But the problem is, there are three coupons here."

Ezaki Suguha shook the invitation ticket in his hand and asked curiously, "There is one more ticket. What are you going to do with it, Haruno?"

"This one"

Speaking of this, Sawayama Haruno also started to have a headache.

He originally planned to go alone with Suguha, but the invitation ticket looked very valuable, which made him a little hesitant.

Should I continue to forward it to others? But who should I forward it to?

It seems that Ayano Yui is not free recently. The fact that she didn't come to visit means that she must be busy recently.

After thinking for a while, Sawayama Haruno still couldn't think of an answer, so he simply asked, "What do you think, should we go alone, leave a ticket for someone else, or find someone else to go with us?"

“Give to others”

Suguha Esaki fell into deep thought for a moment.

The figure of a person almost flashed through her mind.

She easily remembered that she and the other party had agreed to go shopping and have dinner together in the afternoon.

"Can I give it to Master?" Ezaki Suguha looked at the invitation ticket in her hand and said softly, "She should have time, right?"

"Shiori? That's fine too, as long as she doesn't have any extra work to do at school or Kodansha."

Sawayama Haruno agreed readily.

As long as Ezaki Suguha agrees, it will be fine. After all, this "date" is to make up for the fact that he did not accompany her enough in the past period of time.

Since Ezaki Suguha chose to use up all three tickets, then let's go together. Shiori has helped me a lot, so it's necessary to treat her occasionally.

After finalizing the three candidates, Sawayama Haruno put the salmon ball back on the ground, sat next to Ezaki Suguha, and hugged her gently.

"You guys are going out shopping this afternoon?"

"Well, Haruno, do you want to join us?"

"I'll forget it."

Zeshan Haruno shook his head and said gently, "You two can go. I'll just be at home preparing for the book."

The girls are shopping in groups, so why should a grown man like me join in the fun? I might as well stay at home and continue thinking about the book "Kafka on the Shore".

After all, the plan to create the second book is imminent. If possible, Sawayama Haruno hopes to write part of the book before the end of the year.

"If you don't come with us, you'll have to eat alone at home."

Seeing Sawayama Haruno's refusal, Ezaki Suguha seemed a little worried.

"Xiao Wei doesn't seem to be at home either. I heard that she went to school to take care of other things these days. Are you okay alone?"

"I lived alone before, too." Sawayama Haruno looked at her helplessly and added, "After all, I've lived alone for so many years. I shouldn't feel lonely just because of a few hours in the afternoon and evening."

"Yeah."

Ezaki Suguha pursed her lips and smiled.

"I also want to say that if Haruno feels uncomfortable being alone, he should come back earlier."

"There's still plenty of time, there's no need to rush."

Haruno Sawayama hugged Suguha Ezaki with a little force and lifted her onto his lap.

He leaned back on the sofa, looked at the voucher in the other person's hand, and smiled, "If you're really sorry, you can make it up to me when we go to the hot springs. I heard that the hotel rooms even have their own outdoor hot spring baths."

The group to which this apartment building belongs is engaged in a chain of industrial chains, and the hot spring hotel developed here is naturally extremely high-end. Not only are there separate bathing pools for men and women, there are also shared mixed bathing pools, and even the high-end rooms have independent ones.

The invitation ticket he received naturally also included the privilege of experiencing the independent hot spring bath.

"Haruno."

As if she understood what he said, Ezaki Suguha's face turned slightly red.
