A guide to survival in a heavy girl's world

Chihaya Tetsuya, realizing the true meaning of this invitation, nodded seriously before asking:

"Um, do I need to prepare a fancy suit or something in advance..."

"No, as long as it fits."

The agent said calmly:

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself. For our firm, you're the hero of this live performance. Aside from greeting others, just treat this as a normal party with Ai and Chuhua and enjoy it..."

Having said this, she paused for a moment before continuing:

"Just in case, let me ask you, have you ever had any alcohol before this?"

"Of course not!"

Chihaya Tetsuya denied it in a matter-of-fact tone:

"I'm not even twenty years old yet, how could I possibly have drunk alcohol?"

"Then you better be careful at the celebration party."

The agent said:

"There might be drinks that day that don't taste like alcohol at all, so remember to check with the waiter to see if they contain alcohol before drinking."

After she finished speaking, her cell phone suddenly started ringing.

When she saw the caller ID, she immediately waved to Chihaya Tetsuya and said:

"I still need to confirm the follow-up matters with the stage, so you can go back first. I will let Ai or Chuhua tell you the specific time and place of the celebration party. Just wait for their news."

"understood!"

After receiving Chihaya Tetsuya's reply, the agent immediately answered the phone and left the backstage in a hurry. Chihaya Tetsuya first bowed politely to the back figure before finally breathing a sigh of relief.

“…It’s great to have it all come to a successful conclusion.”

Although I haven't had time to search for reviews about this Live, judging from the reactions from all sides, the success of this Live seems to be self-evident.

With the end of this Live, he can now officially devote all his energy to the upcoming [TGC]——

Just as Chihaya Tetsuya was about to return to the VIP seats with a relaxed attitude that "everything is settled", a burst of approaching conversation suddenly interrupted his actions.

Soon, when the noise that was about to turn into an argument came to him, he finally realized that the so-called "end" was just his wishful thinking.

"Zhe (Brother)!"

As the two girls called out at the same time, the expression on Chihaya Tetsuya's face froze instantly.

"Who are you going to sleep with tonight?!"

Chapter 45: Just like a real family.

"So, my brother and I have already made an appointment in advance. We will sleep together today and go home together tomorrow!"

Chihaya Aine glared at Hoshino Ai in front of her.

However, facing Chihaya Aine's statement, Hoshino Ai's reaction was extremely calm:

"Really? But I heard that you decided to live with Tetsu on a whim after hearing that he was staying in Yokohama for one night."

"This is my privilege as your younger sister—wait…I haven't told anyone about this, how did you know?"

Chihaya Aine looked at Hoshino Ai in astonishment.

"You, you also installed a bug in my brother's phone?"

"Although this is a good idea, I can't use this method against you or me."

Hoshino Ai looked at Chihaya Aine with some contempt.

"Because such an obvious lie doesn't even require eavesdropping. It's clear that Zhe only booked the room before the concert, yet you insisted on saying it was a 'pre-arranged appointment'. Shouldn't you use your brain a little when lying?"

"elder brother!"

Realizing that it was Chihaya Tetsuya who "leaked the news", Chihaya Aine immediately looked at Chihaya Tetsuya with dissatisfaction.

"Why expose your itinerary to this dangerous guy?"

On the other side, Hoshino Ai also turned her face towards Chihaya Tetsuya:

"Zhe, you're such a fool! Your sister is already so old, but she still pesters you to sleep in the same bed with you. Surely it's because you usually indulge her too much, right?"

"You're the one being indulged, aren't you? I didn't even bother to investigate the fact that you'd touched my brother before, and now you're blaming me instead?!"

Chihaya Aine was very angry about this counter-attack.

"Ever since you reunited with your brother, you've been the most willful one!"

"Hehe, there's nothing I can do about it. After all, Zhe has always doted on me since we were in the orphanage."

Facing Chihaya Aine's counterattack, Hoshino Ai said with great pride:

"Like I said before, Zhe kissed me last week, right, Zhe?"

"Don't be so proud, my brother has always doted on me!"

As Chihaya Aine spoke, she came directly in front of Chihaya Tetsuya.

"Come on, brother, kiss me!"

"You two calm down for a moment..."

Chihaya Tetsu, who had been looking around since the beginning, fearing that someone else might pass by in the corridor, tried to mediate the argument between the two with sweat on his forehead.

"Some staff might come over later, and your quarrel here might turn into a huge riot."

"Just give me a kiss and I'll stop arguing with her!"

In the face of Chihaya Tetsuya's panic, Chihaya Aine's attitude was extremely tough.

"I have to let this guy see how much you love me!"

"Why do I have to prove it to others..."

Chihaya Tetsuya smiled bitterly and said:

"Also, let me make it clear first. When Ai mentioned kissing her first... it meant the cheek, so—"

"Whether it's my cheeks or my lips, it doesn't matter where!"

This was the first time that Chihaya Aine acted so tough in front of Chihaya Tetsuya.

"Whatever you do to Hoshino, you must do the same to me!"

"Ugh……"

Faced with Chihaya Aine's expression filled with jealousy and shame, Chihaya Tetsuya couldn't help but feel nervous.

Chihaya Aine had never been so angry with him before, nor had she ever made such a firm request to him. Chihaya Tetsuya really couldn't imagine what consequences would result from her unresolved anger if he rejected her like this.

And… that time, he had taken the initiative to kiss Aiben to soothe her emotions, and now, Aine was asking for a kiss from him to calm her anger. In a sense, their situations were basically the same.

Even if we take a step back and say that it is not common for a brother to kiss his adolescent sister on the cheek, it is definitely not a crime against humanity. So, in order to resolve the imminent crisis, even a slight kiss should be fine.

So, Chihaya Tetsuya, who had overcome his psychological barriers, took a deep breath, then leaned down and prepared to kiss Chihaya Aine on the cheek.

On the other hand, Hoshino Ai did not show any jealousy, but said meaningfully:

"Ah, so I didn't have time to take my makeup off after I got off the stage~"

"..."

Chihaya Aine, who was about to close her eyes and enjoy the moment, opened her eyes instantly after hearing this.

And then, Hoshino Ai's next words made her quickly use her fingers to stop Chihaya Tetsuya's lips from approaching -

"Besides, I just sweated a lot on stage. I really should wash my face first."

"Gu——!"

Realizing that she was being led by the nose, Chihaya Aine first grumbled unwillingly in her throat, then turned around and said to Chihaya Tetsuya who looked bewildered:

"Wait for me here for a moment...Brother..."

Chihaya Aine spoke with an extremely difficult voice, emphasizing each word:

"This kiss will be postponed until I come back after removing my makeup!"

After saying that, she glared at Hoshino Ai fiercely, then turned around and ran towards the bathroom...

"...Humph, so easy to deal with."

On the other side, Hoshino Ai, who had successfully sent Chihaya Aine away, snorted softly before speaking to Chihaya Tetsuya again:

"So, she really does like you, right, Zhe?"

The anxiety that felt like something precious had been taken away, and the need to find peace of mind through concrete results. No matter how you look at it, it's not just family affection.

"……kindness."

Although a little embarrassed, Chihaya Tetsuya nodded and admitted:

"Although she currently intends for our relationship to remain just that of brother and sister, Aine... does indeed like me as a member of the opposite sex."

"Knew it."

Hoshino Ai was not surprised at all.

As early as the first time she saw the photo of Chihaya Aion and Chihaya Tetsuya posted online, Hoshino Ai had already noticed this from the happy expression that she was so familiar with.

"If it were me before, I would never have wanted to care about this guy's feelings, but... after working so hard to put on a performance, the disparity of seeing my favorite person being snatched away by someone else is really hard to accept. Besides, she is Zhe's sister after all. Even if she is a rival in love, I can't really bully her too much."

The success of Live and the transformation in her mentality have made Hoshino Ai full of the composure of a winner.

Then, while untying the crown on her head, she said to Chihaya Tetsuya:

"In that case, I'll tolerate the willfulness of my future 'stepsister' a little tonight... Zhe."

"?"

"Tonight, let the three of us sleep together."

A rather peaceful smile appeared on Hoshino Ai's face, with her long hair draped like silk.

“Just like a real family.”

Chapter 46 The difference between containment and cooperation.

"Really? I understand."

Shoko Toyokawa, who was holding the cell phone, had a somewhat amusing and helpless expression.

"It's really hard work. Anyway, leave Mu to me."

[Well, thank you for your help...]

Chihaya Tetsuya's rather tired voice came from the microphone.

I will pick her up as early as possible tomorrow.

"It's okay, I'll take her back tomorrow. Tetsuya-kun should just focus on yourself."

Toyokawa Shoko shook her head.

"See you tomorrow, Tetsuya-kun, good luck."

After leaving a rather helpless blessing, Toyokawa Shoko put down her phone and turned to Wakaba Mutsu and said:

"Did you hear that, Mu? Tetsuya-kun has been captured by Chihaya Aine and Hoshino Ai, and won't be able to join us until tomorrow."

"..."

After hearing this, Wakaba Mutsu stared at Toyokawa Shoko's face for a long time, and then asked in a voice that was hard to tell whether it was sad or happy:

"Xiangzi...won't you feel jealous?"

"Well, it's definitely impossible to say there's absolutely no one. If Hoshino was the only one in love, I would definitely try to get Suyo and Hatsuka to mess things up, but after all, there's Chihaya Aine, so I'm not too worried."

Toyokawa Shoko said:
