"You look very handsome in this outfit."
"You mean I'm not handsome at other times?"
"He looks even more handsome now."
Kawasaki Saki smiled softly.
Su Yu looked out the window.
It was almost dark by then.
"Next week, I will act like I'm very close to Yui Yuigahama."
Where is Yumiko Miura?
"My plan is to take the afternoon off this day for Yumiko Miura."
"plan?"
"I just hugged her. The plan was to make Hayama Hayato think I was terrible, so that I could see if Hayama Hayato would save Miura Yumiko."
"I see. No wonder I felt that you and Miura-kun didn't get along very well."
"My real target is Yui Yuigahama; I plan to make her and Yukino Yukinoshita good friends."
Do you like Yukino Yukinoshita?
Saki Kawasaki asked curiously.
Su Yu withdrew his gaze and looked her over.
"I like her, but not in the way that I want to be with her."
Do you want to be friends with her?
"I don't want to make her angry right now. I find it interesting to see her angry."
"Does this count as liking someone?"
Saki Kawasaki blinked.
……
Dinner is finished.
It's already dark outside.
Su Yu and Kawasaki Saki took the elevator to the floor where the bar was located.
The bar is called Angel's Ladder.
There are certain requirements for attire; it's considered a somewhat upscale bar.
There was nothing wrong with their clothing.
Step inside the bar.
An elegant piano piece.
The other guests around me were either in suits or long skirts.
The man was very gentlemanly, and the woman was very elegant.
Su Yu and Kawasaki Saki arrived at the bar.
The woman behind the bar saw Kawasaki Saki and was immediately stunned.
Saki Kawasaki smiled at her.
"Hanada-nee, it's been a long time."
"Saki, what's wrong with you...?"
"This is my boyfriend."
"I see. Congratulations."
The woman behind the bar glanced at Su Yu.
"Two drinks," Saki Kawasaki said softly.
"Just a moment." Ms. Hanada smiled and began to prepare the drink.
Two drinks were quickly finished.
Su Yu and Kawasaki Saki picked up their glasses, clinked them together in perfect unison, and then began to drink.
"How does it taste?" Miss Hanada asked.
"Not bad." Su Yu thought it tasted great.
"Ms. Hanada's drinks are still so delicious. I haven't even mastered half of what you've made," Saki Kawasaki commented.
“I’ve been a bartender for ten years. If you want to learn all my skills, you’ll have to spend ten years,” Ms. Hanada joked.
“My boyfriend signed me up for tutoring classes, and I plan to work hard from now on, just like you said before, to get into a good university and make my life smoother.”
"Go for it, Saki."
Ms. Hanada encouraged him.
Saki Kawasaki nodded.
As Su Yu sipped his drink, he thought of Kawasaki Saki from the anime.
If I hadn't met myself.
She should be standing behind the bar right now.
Thinking about it.
A hand landed on his shoulder.
"Good evening, Su Yujun."
This voice…
Su Yu and Kawasaki Saki were both stunned.
They turned to look at Hiratsuka Shizuka and Yukinoshita Haruno, who had a smile on her face.
"Teacher Jing, what are you doing here?" Su Yu asked, puzzled.
"I treated Xiaojing to barbecue, and then we came here for drinks."
Yukinoshita replied.
"That's quite a coincidence." Su Yu looked at the hand on his shoulder.
"Why are you two here?" Hiratsuka Shizuka sized up Su Yu, her grip on his hand quite strong.
“We ate at the restaurant, and since Saki used to work here, I suggested we come here for a look around,” Su Yu said honestly.
"What are they drinking?" Hiratsuka Shizuka asked.
“It’s a drink,” Ms. Hanada quickly replied.
"That's good." Hiratsuka Shizuka withdrew her hand.
Su Yu felt a bit of pain in his shoulder.
Hiratsuka Shizuka glanced at the two of them.
"After you finish your drinks, are you going straight home?"
"I've booked a room and will rest at the hotel tonight."
"A room?"
"One room."
Hiratsuka Shizuka's eyes darkened upon hearing this answer.
"Come on, let's go over there and talk."
"it is good."
Su Yu, carrying a drink, followed Hiratsuka Shizuka to a quiet place.
She turned around and looked at Su Yu.
"First it was Yukino Yukinoshita, then Yumiko Miura, and now it's Saki Kawasaki. Su Yu-kun, are you trying to juggle multiple relationships at once?"
Chapter 25 Basic Constitution Potions
"Ms. Shizuka, what does it mean that 'first was Yukino Yukinoshita'?"
"Didn't you join the Service Club for Yukino Yukinoshita?"
"You've misunderstood me. Although Yukino is indeed very beautiful, I'm not that kind of person."
"Do you think I believe it?"
Su Yu sighed and looked at Hiratsuka Shizuka.
"Okay, I admit it, I'm juggling several relationships."
"It's good that you admit it. Now make a choice. You have to choose one of the three of them."
Hiratsuka Shizuka said earnestly.
Su Yu shook his head and looked directly at her.
"Excuse me, Ms. Jing, I want them all."
"Oh? You mean you want to be a jerk? Do you know what kind of person I hate the most?"
"Please don't rush, let me explain your reasons."
"You have another reason? Okay, tell me."
Hiratsuka Shizuka frowned.
Su Yu looked in the direction of Kawasaki Saki.
“Before Saki met me, she worked here and would go back at five o’clock every morning. During her lunch break, she would always sleep on the roof of the storage room on the roof.”
"She was working incredibly hard to get into university."
“I hired Saki for 3,000 yen an hour, just to help her at the time.”
"However, as we spent time together, I found myself falling in love with Saki."
“Saki knew about my affairs with other girls, but she tacitly approved of it. All I could do was offer her material compensation.”
"I will give the house I live in now to Saki after graduation. In addition, I will give her at least 100 million yen, or make her a shareholder in my company."
After listening, Hiratsuka Shizuka couldn't help but say something.
"Then you should choose her, is that alright?"
"Xiaoxue is called a high-class beauty by everyone, but she's actually just a clumsy girl who doesn't know how to make friends. I'll introduce her to some new friends next week, and I'll try my best to win her heart."
"What about Yumiko Miura?"
"We have broken up."
"Can't you and Yukinoshita just be friends?"
"Ms. Shizuka, if you were Yukino, and a boy kept helping you, would you just be friends with him?"
Su Yu responded to the question with a question.
Hiratsuka Shizuka looked at Su Yu without saying a word.
Su Yu picked up the drink and drank it all in one gulp.
"Ms. Jing, thank you for your concern, but you've never even been in a relationship, so please don't worry about me."
"I...I've never been in a relationship, but I have the right perspective on relationships."
“I know you’re right, all the men you’ve met so far have had problems.”
"you…"
"Alright, I won't disturb your drinking, and don't even think about taking us home." After saying that, Su Yu turned and left.
Hiratsuka Shizuka was very angry, but she also knew very well that it was basically impossible to persuade Su Yu.
