Chapter 21
You Have a House, I Have a Car, We're a Perfect Match!

Lin Xi registered Shiina Mahiru and then asked her to fill out a form.

Then, after doing that, he took Shiina Mahiru to see the rooms.

First was the first floor.

Besides the administrator’s room where Senishiki Chihiro lived, there were two other rooms and a shared kitchen on the first floor.

Shiina Mahiru looked at it and decisively shook her head, she didn’t want to live there.

Then they went to the second floor.

“The one by the window is mine, and the next one is a girl named Ogiwara Sayu’s room.”

“There are 3 rooms on the second floor.”

“The one in the corner, 205, is a recluse named Akasaka Ryuunosuke, a genius programmer, he’s basically in charge of the network for Sakura Mansion.”

Shiina Mahiru realized that besides Ogiwara Sayu’s room, the room opposite Lin Xi’s and the one next to it were also nice.

It was very well ventilated, and you could see the branches of the cherry blossom tree when you opened the window, with a burst of floral fragrance coming in.

She even saw a cat napping in a fork in the branches.

It looked very cozy.

After showing her the second floor, they went to the third floor.

“There are also 5 rooms on the third floor, 201 is occupied by Uenokusa Misaki-senpai, she is a genius animation director, her personality is very outgoing, she’s very easy to get along with.”

“205 is a playboy, Mitaka Jin-senpai, it is said that he is dating 6 girlfriends at the same time, partying all night, he seems to have been out of Sakura Mansion for the past few days.”

Hearing this, Shiina Mahiru frowned.

He was stepping on six boats at the same time, partying all night, how could Sakura Mansion have someone like that living here?

She looked at Lin Xi in confusion.

Lin Xi shrugged helplessly.

“I know you want to ask why Sakura Mansion would accept such a guest, but actually, I only inherited Sakura Mansion not long ago, these people were already living here before.”

“So, have you decided where you want to live?”

“Um, I want to live in the room next to yours, it feels like a nice view.”

Shiina Mahiru immediately made a decision.

She didn’t want to live on the same floor as the playboy.

“Oh, next to me, are you sure? Aren’t you afraid of me…”

Facing his teasing words, Shiina Mahiru glanced at his crotch and said coldly:

“I’m not some easy-to-bully girl, if you dare to attack me, I will use physical methods to ensure you can’t use that thing anymore.”

Lin Xi twitched at the corner of his mouth, “That’s really scary, but don’t worry, I won’t just attack a cute girl.”

“After all, my dream is to make the girl I like happy, forcing someone is definitely not going to make them happy.”

“Alright, Shiina-san, this room will be yours from now on, here is the key.”

Lin Xi said, quickly finished the registration, and handed her a key chain.

“Go ahead and tidy up the room, we all have dinner in the living room on the first floor tonight, it’s a tradition at Sakura Mansion to welcome new residents, so we’re having a gathering.”

“I understand.”

Shiina Mahiru nodded with a smile.

A gathering, that sounded kind of new to her.

“Then I won’t bother you anymore.”

Lin Xi quickly turned around and left.

As soon as he got back to his room, he saw Ogiwara Sayu’s resentful gaze.

“What’s wrong? Why are you pouting like that?”

Ogiwara Sayu looked at him pitifully.

“Lin Xi, who was that super beautiful girl?”

“You guys seem to be wearing the same uniform.”

Actually, she wanted to ask if that girl was his girlfriend.

“She’s the new resident, of course, her name is Shiina Mahiru, she’s Senishiki Chihiro-sensei’s cousin, and also my classmate, that’s about it.”

“Is that so…”

Ogiwara Sayu breathed a sigh of relief, but soon frowned again.

“Alright, don’t worry, we have to prepare the welcome party for the new resident.”

“No problem, leave it to me! I will conquer her stomach!”

Ogiwara Sayu immediately became ambitious.

She held her head high, put on an apron, and started busying herself in the kitchen.

Senishiki Chihiro, who had just finished washing the dishes and had woken up from her nap, was smiling from ear to ear, she would have another late-night snack tonight.

Lin Xi came to the first floor and rolled his eyes at Senishiki Chihiro.

“Isn’t this the forever-29-year-old beautiful girl, Senishiki Chihiro-sensei? You’re awake?”

Senishiki Chihiro snorted, hooked her arm around his neck, “You little rascal, you’re taking advantage of the situation, what, you don’t like me, sensei?”

“How could I?”

Lin Xi smiled and took advantage of the situation to put his arms around her waist and picked her up.

“Senishiki Chihiro-sensei, did you mean what you said about going to bed earlier?”

Senishiki Chihiro’s head was buzzing.

Her pretty face flushed red.

“You little rascal, you’re teasing me!”

“You’ve become like Mitaka that guy after you got Sayu, you’ve become bad!”

Lin Xi smiled and put her down.

“It seems like you’re the one teasing me, you almost made Shiina-san misunderstand.”

Senishiki Chihiro pretended to be calm and adjusted her skirt, sat down.

“You’re lying, you’re just a pervert!”

Then, she hooked her finger at him, playing playfully, “So, you have a crush on Mahiru? My cousin is not easy to chase, though I do know some things about her, do you want to know?”

“Buy me a beer, and I’ll tell you!”

Lin Xi waved his hand in disgust.

“You’ve been drinking all afternoon, why are you still drinking? I’m going to have a big cleaning and hygiene inspection in a few days, if your room still smells like beer, I’ll make Senishiki-sensei responsible for Sakura Mansion’s hygiene for a month!”

Senishiki Chihiro’s eyes widened, she had been thinking about being a lazy bum.

“That’s too harsh! Kid, do you still want to know about my cousin?”

“I don’t care, I’m not like I don’t have a girlfriend.”

He had Sayu, he wasn’t really craving other girls.

Okay.

He was actually still craving it.

But he couldn’t be too hasty.

Anyway, he couldn’t let Senishiki Chihiro know that he craved Shiina Mahiru.

Seeing his nonchalant expression, Senishiki Chihiro looked dejected.

“What’s wrong with just drinking a little bit? You little rascal, when you reach my age, you’ll know that all you need in life is another can of beer!”

“Sorry, I don’t think I’ll ever understand the feeling of having only beer in my life.”

Lin Xi said, and sat down as well, carefully looking at the mature woman in front of him.

“I don’t understand, Senishiki-sensei, you’re so pretty, why would you fail to get a date?”

Senishiki Chihiro’s cheeks flushed red, and she couldn’t help but give him a look with her eyes.

“Who knows what you men are thinking!”

“It’s really hard to marry a successful person, isn’t it?”

Lin Xi twitched at the corner of his mouth.

“No wonder you failed, I said Senishiki-sensei, there are so many salarymen now, most successful people are married men, you know?”

“And if you don’t change your habit of drinking beer, potential guys will stay away from you.”

“Shirayama Haru-sensei can at least act cute, you always have a deadbeat look, who would marry a drunkard as their wife?”

Lin Xi was talking to himself.

Senishiki Chihiro was already clutching her chest, her eyes welling up.

Lin Xi scratched his cheek.

Did he go too far?

Senishiki Chihiro barely calmed down, suddenly pounced on him, sitting on his waist.

“You little rascal, you dare say that about me… woo woo, am I that bad?”

“I don’t care, the reason I can’t find someone must be your fault, you have to take responsibility and marry me!”

“Hmm, thinking about it, you kid are actually pretty good looking, a lot better than Mitaka Jin.”

“You have a house, I have a car, we’re a perfect match!”

Lin Xi was speechless.

Have some shame!

We’re still high school students!

And it’s really okay to force me to be your husband like this?
