It was a good thing that the chat between Kazuya Kinoshita and Mami Nanami was just a simple text chat. If it were a phone call or video, he might accidentally slip up and reveal Chizuru Mizuhara.
But, it’s fine.
He and Chizuru Mizuhara.
They are just ordinary college students sharing a room. Even if it’s a room in a hotel, nothing will happen.
“Kazuya, what’s wrong?”
Mami Nanami saw that Kazuya Kinoshita didn’t reply to her message and directly asked him.
“Nothing, I’m busy now. I’ll chat with you later, Mami-chan.”
…
Kazuya put down his phone and looked at Chizuru Mizuhara.
She was wearing a pink, girly yukata, looking pure and adorable. Her lazy posture after her bath, the just-right blush on her skin, and the rosy glow made her look more beautiful than a peach blossom.
She was so beautiful.
“What’s wrong?”
Chizuru Mizuhara asked Kazuya, who was looking at her with a dazed expression, while she fixed her still damp long hair.
“Nothing. What are you going to do later? Are you going to play in your grandmother’s room or something?”
Kazuya’s heart was no longer calm, looking at the yukata that was even more appealing to him than the “Perfect Girlfriend” mode.
“No, dinner is coming soon, and there are too many people in grandma’s room. It’s better to enjoy the trip separately this time.”
Chizuru Mizuhara hadn’t noticed Kazuya’s slight infatuation with her.
“Kazuya-kun, what do you plan to eat for dinner? Do you want to eat together?”
Chizuru Mizuhara invited him.
“Don’t hotels usually deliver dinner to the room?” Kazuya Kinoshita asked back. “Alright, let’s contact grandma and the others first. If they ask us to eat with them, it would be a waste if we order here again.”
“Okay, I didn’t think of that.” Chizuru Mizuhara smiled with a hint of self-deprecation.
…
“Grandma, are we eating dinner together?”
Kazuya sent a message to his grandma.
“No, you and Chizuru can eat together.”
“Grandma ordered a couple’s set meal for you two. Enjoy your meal together, okay? Hehehe.”
Kazuya’s grandma turned to Sayuri Ichinose’s grandma and said, “If only Chizuru could really like my Kazuya, I really hope she could be my granddaughter!”
Sayuri Ichinose’s grandma smiled, “Your Kazuya is pretty good too, right? If you give them a chance to be alone, Chizuru will definitely like someone like him.”
“Really, I don’t even know what good points my Kazuya has. Although he seems to have grown up a bit recently.”
Kazuya’s grandma was complaining about her useless grandson, but her face was full of love for her child. That’s how family is, you can say bad things about him, but others can’t.
“Don’t say that. I think your Kazuya is a responsible good kid.” Sayuri Ichinose’s grandma looked very satisfied with Kazuya, “Before, when Chizuru was sick in the apartment, his behavior was very responsible and interesting.”
“Oh, what happened?” Kazuya’s grandma was very interested.
“Listen to me…...”
…
“Couple’s set meal, really…...”
Why would grandma want to match him up with Chizuru Mizuhara? He didn’t want to pursue her. His current goal should be Mami Nanami. Even if he didn’t like her yet, it wouldn’t stop him from making Mami Nanami his girlfriend.
Dating doesn’t have to start with liking someone. You start confessing because you care about someone, you start dating because you feel that you are both okay with it. Maybe most of the liking begins after dating.
Is love at first sight really common in reality?
“Chizuru Mizuhara, we will just eat in this room later.”
Kazuya Kinoshita didn’t want Chizuru Mizuhara to know that this was a couple’s set meal ordered by his grandmothers. This way, their interaction would be less awkward.
“Then let’s enjoy it properly, after all, we paid for it. It would be a waste if we didn’t relax during the trip.”
Chizuru Mizuhara planned to make a joke to lighten the mood.
“That’s true…...”
…
There were no suitable topics.
The air was silent.
Kazuya looked at Chizuru Mizuhara sitting across from him.
Chizuru Mizuhara was incredibly beautiful wearing the yukata. The young girl wore a pink yukata with cherry blossoms, and she wasn’t wearing any shoes in the room, making her usually hidden bare feet particularly alluring. A light red “Itakiss” (decorative knot) was tied around her waist, although her figure was plump, her waist was particularly slender, her skin was white and rosy, moist and alluring, like it could be broken by a light touch.
“By the way, Kazuya-kun, my phone is still in the room. Excuse me for a moment.”
Chizuru Mizuhara got up and excused herself, going back to her room to get her phone.
Kazuya watched Chizuru Mizuhara get up suddenly, the connection point of her yukata loosened for a moment. Kazuya Kinoshita’s attention was drawn to the bit of white and tender flesh exposed.
Chizuru Mizuhara saw Kazuya’s gaze shift downwards, her face flushed pink as she pulled up her yukata and turned around silently without saying a word.
Only four words appeared in Kazuya Kinoshita’s heart: Thank you for the hospitality.
…
Chizuru Mizuhara, Chizuru Ichinose, Chizuru Mizuhara, Chizuru Ichinose.
Chizuru Mizuhara, a rental girlfriend?
For the first time, Kazuya Kinoshita logged onto the diamond website where he originally rented Chizuru Mizuhara.
He wanted to know the other side of Chizuru Ichinose.
Rental Girlfriend?
A dream moment with an agency-affiliated artist
Girls are available by designation
The fee is ¥5,000 per hour
For those who are not used to women
For those who feel pressured and anxious about dating
Closed rooms are NG (physical contact is also prohibited in principle)
(They really said it nicely. But, upholding the principle of spiritual interaction…., someone who casually gives tenderness to others always feels more…., It’s better to say that all tenderness is an act. This kind of real bad girl, Kazuya might actually like even more. )
Rental girlfriend? If Chizuru Ichinose didn’t do this….
Could she be wholeheartedly committed to a relationship?
“Enough, really, I hate it…...”
Kazuya recalled his first date with Chizuru Mizuhara, feeling frustrated about the exchange of money. To make an inappropriate analogy, it’s like one day you discover that the goddess from the same neighborhood who greets you every morning works in a club….
…
Enough, he and Chizuru Mizuhara are just friends, Kazuya Kinoshita comforted himself in his heart.
“Ding-dong.”
The hotel delivery person arrived.
“Hello, two guests, your couple’s set meal hotpot is ready. Please enjoy.”
The staff member simply stated the truth. Although not all couples use the couple’s set meal.
“Hey, couple’s hotpot?”
Chizuru Mizuhara realized for the first time that Kazuya Kinoshita was not being considerate?
“It’s fine, it’s just a prank by grandma and the others. Don’t mind it.”
Kazuya was calm, not particularly caring about these little tricks of his grandmothers, after all, he’s a former social person.
“Really? There’s nothing to it.”
Chizuru Mizuhara saw that Kazuya didn’t mind. She thought about it carefully, it’s just a couple’s meal, isn’t it?
Just a meal, just a meal.
Dinner was special due to the mountain setting, featuring wild game specialties. The Pearwood Inn had its own ranch, and dinner included hotpot with their own raised pork, beef, and chicken, along with Matsutake and other mushrooms that were unique to the mountains, as well as creek fish sashimi that was rarely found outside, which looked particularly chewy.
