I'm in Tokyo, caught in the clutches of the demon princess.

"Yuxiang, stop reading while you're eating."

Yuka Ikeda looked at Kazesawa with slightly oppressive eyes, then closed her book and quietly began to eat.

Chiba Ikeda looked at both sides and felt like she was the outsider.

After finishing their meal, Kazema chatted with Ikeda Chiba for a while before deciding to leave.

"Alright, that's enough, I should go now."

Chiba Ikeda stood up.

"I send you."

Feng Zejian did not refuse.

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey."

Stop being cheeky.

Kazema and Ikeda Chiba left.

Inside the car, Feng Zejian leaned back in the leather seats, enjoying the experience brought to him by the Burmester sound system.

"Headmaster."

"what happened?"

"It's nothing, I just wanted to call you."

"You really have nothing better to do."

Halfway through the drive, Chiba Ikeda's phone rang. Since it was connected to the car's Bluetooth, she answered the call directly through the speakerphone.

"Hello."

"Chiba... I miss you."

The Burmester sound system played those words very clearly, even bringing out the feeling of longing.

Looks like there's more juicy gossip to come.

Chiba Ikeda parked her car on the side of the road.

"Long Tianshui, you have your own girlfriend, why are you calling me?"

"Chiba, we've broken up. I've realized lately that she's not right for me, or rather, I can't forget you. I know it's shameless of me to do this, but I still can't let you go, so I'm forcing myself to call you. Can we meet? I have something I want to tell you."

Chiba Ikeda hung up the phone without thinking, muttering a curse under her breath.

"unlucky."

Feng Zejian pursed his lips, suppressing a laugh.

He really wanted to laugh, but he didn't dare.

"Laugh if you want."

Upon hearing this, Feng Zejian could no longer hold back.

"Ha ha ha ha."

Chiba Ikeda raised her hand and slapped Kazesawa's arm.

"You brat, I told you to laugh, and you actually did!"

Kaze looked at Ikeda Chiba with a meaningful gaze.

“Principal, that’s not fair of you.”

"I'm being polite, you can't actually laugh."

Just then, Chiba Ikeda's phone rang again. It was a message from Ryūten Mizusawa, containing a restaurant address and a message that made her seem pitiful.

Feng Zejian pointed to the text messages on his phone.

"What should we do now? Should I get off here and take a taxi back?"

"He comes looking for me, but who does he think I am?"

Silence fell over the wind and marshland.

"You'll definitely go."

"I shouldn't go."

Feng Zejian rested his chin on his hand and said with a playful tone, "You'll definitely go."

"You also think I'm the kind of woman who can be summoned and dismissed at will?"

"I didn't say you were that kind of woman. My conclusion stems from a woman's desire for revenge and competitiveness. Whatever your motives, you'll go."

"If you think I'm wrong, then watch my rebuttal."

Chiba Ikeda looked into Kazesawa's eyes, said nothing, and started the car, driving in the opposite direction.

"No, Headmaster, this is not the way home."

"Nonsense, I've changed my mind. You can have it."

"Then put me down."

"Can't let go."

Kazema was taken hostage by Chiba Ikeda and taken to the address of Ryuten Mizusawa.

She brought Kazesawa to this place, but Ikeda Chiba refused to go down.

"Hey Principal, you're already here, why don't you get off the bus?"

"I......"

Chiba Ikeda hesitated.

“Principal, there’s no need to hesitate about this. If you like it, continue; if you don’t, then goodbye. You’re an adult; you should have your own judgment and be responsible for yourself.”

Chiba Ikeda looked at Kazesawa and flicked his forehead.

"I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice, and you're lecturing me? Just wait obediently in the car."

"and many more."

Chiba Ikeda narrowed her eyes slightly.

"how."

"I'll connect to your car's Bluetooth so we can stay on the phone, and I can watch the show remotely."

Chiba Ikeda laughed in exasperation.

"You're really cunning, kid."

"You lured me here, so what's wrong with me eating some melon seeds?"

"Row."

Kazema connected to the car's Bluetooth to keep in touch with Chiba Ikeda's phone.

Chiba Ikeda got out of the car and checked her phone.

Looking at the French restaurant in front of him, Chiba Ikeda was somewhat dazed.

Back then, this was the place where Long Tianshui and I had our first date, and also the place where we first confirmed our relationship. At that time, I was glad that I had found love, and I thought that our love would blossom and bear fruit, but I didn't expect it to die in the womb.

Chiba Ikeda pushed open the door of the French restaurant. It was still that same corner. Chiba Ikeda knew very well that it was in that very spot that the two of them had established their relationship.

And that person was sitting there, and Chiba Ikeda went over and sat down opposite him.

The person opposite is still the same person, but they are no longer the same as before.

He used to be naive and didn't care much about his clothes or appearance. Now, he has grown out his hair in a way that doesn't suit him, wears carefully coordinated clothes, holds bright red roses, and pretends to be deeply affectionate.

Looking at Ryuten Mizusawa across from her, Chiba Ikeda realized then how ordinary he was without the filters.

"Judging from your appearance, you must have made plans with others. Let's not take up any more of your time and get straight to the point."

Long Tianshui shook his head.

"Chiba, you're the only one I've been waiting for today. These roses are specially prepared for you."

As he spoke, he took out a red gift box, which Long Tianshui opened without hesitation. Inside was a ring.

"And this is also a gift from me to you."

"A ring? It's not appropriate for an ex-boyfriend to give his ex-girlfriend that."

"It's really not appropriate, but I just wanted to give it to you."

Chiba Ikeda chuckled and said, "That's true. It's your business if you want to give it to me. I won't accept it."

Chiba Ikeda pushed the ring aside.

"Let's get to the point first."

"Chiba, you should know very well what my purpose is."

Chapter 296 Cheap Roses

Chiba Ikeda shook her head.

"I'm sorry, I don't know."

Long Tianshui clenched his fists, his face revealing deep resentment.

"Chiba, since you've gone this far, I'll just be shameless one more time and ask you to give me another chance."

Chiba Ikeda raised an eyebrow slightly, her expression quite calm.

"Longtian Shuize, weren't you quite decisive before? Why are you regretting it now?"

Longtian Shuize defended himself:

"In this vast world, there are too many temptations. I was bewitched back then. That was not my intention. The boy you brought kept tempting and forcing me to say that I was severing ties."

Chiba Ikeda interrupted:

"Didn't you take the initiative to confront him? How did it become that he seduced you? Or are you unwilling to lose the female college student you can sleep with, yet you still won't let go of the resources I have, wanting to have your cake and eat it too?"

Long Tianshui shook his head in denial.

"Chiba, it's not like that. Just like in the beginning, I liked you not because of your resources, but simply because I liked you. Now my regret is not because of the resources I lost, but because I realized that I was just being manipulated by desire. After that, I calmed down and realized that I have always loved you."

"I know I'm disgusting, but I'm just an ordinary person with a weak will. I make mistakes too. I think it's not too late for me to wake up. People learn from their failures. This time, I will definitely be a good boyfriend."

"Chiba, please give me a chance, just this once."

As he spoke, he reached out to take Chiba Ikeda's hand.

Chiba Ikeda didn't give him that chance and pulled her hand back immediately.

“Long Tian Shuize, you are right about a few things. First, you are indeed disgusting. Second, you are really ordinary. People do make mistakes, no matter who they are.”

Chiba Ikeda then changed the subject.

"But mistakes have consequences. People learn from their failures. I've learned enough from you. Whether you're genuinely repentant or have ulterior motives, it doesn't matter to me anymore. I won't stumble over you again."

Seeing that his gentle approach was ineffective, Long Tianshui also lost his composure.

"Chiba, is there really no chance for us? I don't think things should be like this between us. There must be someone with ill intentions interfering."

Chiba Ikeda couldn't help but laugh.

"Hehe, Long Tianshui, I don't know why you're intentionally or unintentionally shifting the blame and making someone else take the fall."

"You're the one who cheated, and you're the one who regrets it. Don't I understand? Who is the person you're calling malicious and causing trouble?"

"It was that person from that day. He ruined our relationship. He had ulterior motives and ill intentions."

Chiba Ikeda shook her head helplessly.

"Long Tian Shuize, you really should see a doctor. You've gotten to the point where you're biting people randomly."

"I don't know how I ever fell for you. You'd better watch yourself."

Chiba Ikeda got up to leave, but Ryūten Mizusawa rushed forward and grabbed her arm.

"Chiba, don't go. I love you. I really love you. Please give me a chance."
