Chapter 168 Stick, Hug!
"It's a couple's challenge event, sir."
The waitress repeated her answer with patience,
"I believe, if the two of you participate, you will definitely succeed in completing it."
"Uh... okay, we'll think about it."
Haruka Yuzan chuckled; he had never imagined that the event would be a couple's challenge.
In that case...
"I'll have a cappuccino, thank you."
Chiba Shimizu's reaction was still indifferent, not a ripple on her youthful and pretty face. After ordering a coffee for herself, she handed the menu back to the waitress.
It's like... couple's events have nothing to do with her? Read new chapters at empire
???
Hey, hey, hey, you're reacting this indifferently to a couple's event? Didn't you just say that there's nothing between us?
"Chiba, you..."
Before the boy could finish his sentence, Chiba Shimizu looked up and added,
"Aren't you ordering?"
In the young lady's eyes, he couldn't see the emotion he was hoping for. Seeing this, Haruka Yuzan also sighed helplessly and ordered an orange juice for himself.
"All right, please wait a moment."
The waitress seemed very happy after seeing the two of them, took the menus, and walked away, murmuring as she left,
"With such good looks, you really might win in the end!"
Clear eyes, a fair complexion, and a white blouse puffed out with a perfectly tied bowtie.
The sheer presence of the clean and tidy beauty was enough to offer a purification from the depths of one's soul.
"Ah, it's just a shame we're not a couple; otherwise participating in the event and experiencing it firsthand would probably make future events even better," Haruka Yuzan shrugged and said somewhat helplessly.
If he had come with Sister Reiko, Misaki, or Otome today, he could have experienced the couple's event. Unfortunately, today's companion was a perfect beauty whose affection was not yet fully won over.
To his surprise, this time, the young lady actually gave her own response.
"It's not a pity."
"Hm?"
Chiba Shimizu raised her head, ran her fingers through her hair, and looked at Haruka Yuzan with a hint of a teasing smile in her eyes,
"After all, all of this is just pretend..."
"Are you... sure?"
Haruka Yuzan glanced uncertainly at the girl, whose clear eyes reflected only the figure of a boy.
"If we win first place, we can make a request and then go meet with the manager or store owner to ask about their management experience," Chiba Shimizu said seriously.
A very rational and thoughtful plan, even now, the young lady still had the shop's matters in mind,
Such earnest efforts were embarrassingly overshadowed!!!
"But..."
The truth was, Haruka wanted to say that there would definitely be some close physical contact during the event, but then he thought that if the young lady wasn't worried about such things, why should he be concerned?
"What's the matter, classmate Haruka, you don't have confidence in yourself?" Chiba Shimizu looked at the boy, her gaze full of confidence and playfulness.
Perhaps because they had broken through some barriers that night, now, her usually cold face showed many more intriguing expressions.
Of course... this was all limited to when she was with Haruka Yuzan. In front of others, she remained the unapproachable Gao Ling Zhi Hua.
