"You really have too much free time."
"You even help the neighborhood auntie buy things."
Deli section.
The aroma of meat products filled the air.
The crisp sound of high heels clacking on the floor suggested that the owner of the high heels was likely a beautiful woman with a good figure.
And that was indeed the case.
Hoshino Jun turned to look at Asu Mei, who clearly had 'unhappy' written all over her face, wanting to remind her that she should pay attention to neighborly relations, but he didn't quite dare to speak.
After all, Hoshino Jun had just done something that would make Asu Mei sad.
For now, it was best not to talk back.
However, Asu Mei, dressed in an OL suit, embodying the term 'urban beauty' in every way, did not calm down because of Hoshino Jun's initiative retreat.
Instead, she raised her slender, black-stockinged leg and lightly kicked Hoshino Jun's calf.
'That idiot pig-headed Hoshino Jun, why is he getting along so well with Yuki-nee every day? Lately, I keep hearing Yuki-nee praise him.'
'Today, he even helped Yuki-nee buy groceries, that unforgivable fellow.'
Seeing the auntie with her arms crossed below her ample chest, pouting, Hoshino Jun realized that the area around her was no longer safe, so he slipped a few steps away.
To avoid being kicked again.
Even if the auntie didn't kick hard, it was still the tip of a high heel.
"Auntie, it's working hours now, you should go back to your post."
Asu Mei raised her wrist and checked the time. She had already spent twenty minutes because of Hoshino Jun, and it would indeed be hard to explain if she didn't go back to her work post soon.
With a cold snort and a glare at her troublesome little darling, who both made her happy and angry, Asu Mei left with a 'da da da' of her high heels.
After getting away from Hoshino Jun, she truly began to worry.
Judging from her new superior Takasaki Muneki's recent behavior towards her, he would definitely use this incident as an excuse to ask her out.
If she didn't agree, Takasaki Muneki would probably try to cause her trouble.
"I hope this superior isn't as bad as I imagine."
Asu Mei rubbed her temples, and a smile unconsciously appeared on her face as she thought about it.
Why did Hoshino Jun suddenly jump out earlier?
Asu Mei wasn't stupid; she knew he was jealous.
Her Little Piglet couldn't stand seeing her with other men.
Asu Mei was very happy with Hoshino Jun's jealousy, the only slight dissatisfaction she had was that she felt Hoshino Jun's method was too clumsy.
"Hugging and embracing Auntie in public, using such an aggressive way to declare sovereignty, how can that be? It affects Auntie's work."
"Even if you don't do anything, Auntie will definitely protect you, you idiot."
Perhaps there's some truth to the saying.
Women are fickle.
Asu Mei's good mood vanished when she saw two trembling, plump fruits.
Takayanagi Yuki, also wearing an OL uniform skirt, high heels, and black stockings, had an incredibly explosive figure, especially when she jogged; those huge 'fruits' were particularly dizzying.
Actually, Asu Mei and Takayanagi Yuki had a very good relationship. Whether at work or at home, they got along like true sisters.
At work, Asu Mei often helped the somewhat slow Takayanagi Yuki, and Takayanagi Yuki, in turn, repaid Asu Mei's kindness in caring for her to the best of her ability.
But recently, Asu Mei always felt that her pig...
Seemed...
There was something a little off between him and this plump 'cabbage' next door.
She didn't know exactly what was off, but based on a woman's intuition, Asu Mei felt that the way Hoshino Jun and Takayanagi Yuki interacted...
Seemed to be no longer a normal interaction between elder and junior.
So, subconsciously, she had some intention of cutting off Hoshino Jun's interactions with Takayanagi Yuki.
Recently, when they walked home together, she also started complaining to Takayanagi Yuki about Hoshino Jun's various shortcomings in life, hoping that Takayanagi Yuki would dislike Hoshino Jun because of it.
But it didn't seem to work.
Hoshino Jun even helped Takayanagi Yuki buy groceries today.
Hmph!
Even though she was annoyed, when Takayanagi Yuki ran up to her, Asu Mei still smiled to greet Takayanagi Yuki.
"Yuki-nee, why did you run over here? Is there no work at the front desk right now?"
Takayanagi Yuki also smiled, looking at this young and beautiful woman.
Um.
What should she call her now?
Friend?
But, she and Mei's Hoshino Jun had already done so many embarrassing things together.
Elder?
Even less appropriate.
Takayanagi Yuki was seven whole years older than Asu Mei, so for her to treat Asu Mei as an elder was truly too shameful.
It felt a bit shameless.
As she thought about it, Takayanagi Yuki suddenly felt a bit guilty. She couldn't stand up straight in front of Asu Mei and timidly lowered her head.
"There's still work at the front desk, but Takasaki Minister asked me to go to his office, and I don't know what for."
Hearing her words, Asu Mei thought she was afraid of Takasaki Muneki and rubbed her forehead, a little headache-inducing.
That damned pervert, did he even notice a grassroots employee like Yuki-nee?
"Yuki-nee, don't be afraid. I'm here. I'll go with you. He can't do anything to you, don't worry."
"Mm-hmm, thank you, Mei."
Clearly, Asu Mei misunderstood what Takayanagi Yuki was afraid of.
And this was exactly what Takayanagi Yuki wanted.
Because she had chatted with Hoshino Jun for quite a while, Asu Mei still didn't know that Takasaki Muneki was actually looking for not only Takayanagi Yuki but also her.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
"Come in."
Asu Mei led Takayanagi Yuki and pushed open the office door, walking in together.
At this moment, Takasaki Muneki was on the phone, and even through the phone, he was fawning and obsequious, which showed that the person he was talking to was certainly not simple.
"Minister, may I ask if there's something you need with the company's cashier?"
After Takasaki Muneki finished his call, Asu Mei stepped forward first. Her tone was humble, but it also showed her intention to protect Takayanagi Yuki.
But now, Asu Mei didn't need to protect her.
Takasaki Muneki dared not even think about it anymore. He feared that if he dared to harass these two women today, he would appear on the company's dismissal list tomorrow.
He might even be sued by the company, which would want to prove its innocence for harassing female subordinates, thus becoming a criminal and going to prison for reform.
The most urgent task was to quickly send these two troublemakers away. For this, Takasaki Muneki even went so far as to call his benefactor.
That benefactor was no different from Takasaki Muneki; he was also a master of unspoken rules.
However, the benefactor was not only male, but his preferences were also...
Otherwise...
With Takasaki Muneki's abilities, he wouldn't have become a Minister.
"Please turn on your phones and place them on the table first."
Once bitten, twice shy.
Takasaki Muneki was very afraid of another piece of evidence being recorded; that would be a real pain in the ass.
"Why?"
"No nonsense, just listen to me. This is for work."
A superior was a superior after all. Asu Mei had no reason to refuse such a request that didn't endanger herself.
After the two women placed their phones on the table, Takasaki Muneki directly pulled out two documents and placed them in front of Asu Mei and Takayanagi Yuki respectively.
"These are the compensation for dismissal. Please take a look."
"Miss Asu Mei, your position is manager, and you've worked for seven years. According to the company's highest standard, you will receive five million yen in compensation."
"Miss Takayanagi Yuki, your position is cashier, and you've worked for six years. Also according to the highest standard, you will receive three point five million yen in compensation."
"If there are no problems, you can stop coming to work tomorrow, and the compensation will be deposited into your accounts before tomorrow."
To quickly get rid of these two troublesome women, Takasaki Muneki directly spoke, cutting off all their attempts to argue:
"You don't need to say anything more to me. This is the company's decision, and it's also your best option right now. If you continue to drag it out, I cannot guarantee that you will still receive such a high amount of compensation."
"Know when to quit."
To satisfy Hoshino Jun's appetite, Takasaki Muneki had even agreed to spend a whole week accompanying his benefactor.
Heaven knew how much he had sacrificed. He estimated that after a week, he would have to see a proctologist and a dentist for a while.
'That bastard, if you have the guts, don't let me catch you.'
'Otherwise, I'll take your life.'
'Damn it!'
---Will I encounter that kind of sweet love from TV dramas around the corner?
If it's with ulterior motives, I suppose it's possible.
Hoshino Jun lay on the ground, quietly looking at the bags fallen on either side, and the trench coat wearing older sister who was sprawled on him. He hadn't expected the figure beneath the trench coat to be surprisingly well-endowed.
Especially the 'meat patty' pressing against Hoshino Jun's chin, which was not only full and firm, but also emitted a strong, rich Nana fragrance that wafted into his nose and mouth.
A slight movement.
And Hoshino Jun received a face wash.
Name: Takasaki Tamako

"Gomen nasai!"
Shaking her head, Takasaki Tamako slowly sat up, bowed her head, clasped her hands together, and immediately gave a quick bow of apology:
"I was too hasty, I accidentally bumped into you, I'm very sorry."
Was it an accident?
Probably not.
To this day, Hoshino Jun still couldn't forget that morning when he first interacted with Kato Nana, there was a 'Tiger Tank' named Akemi who tried to run Hoshino Jun over.
That 'Tiger Tank'…
No.
The unit is wrong.
That woman was, to this day, the person who made Hoshino Jun angry, yet he didn't have the mind to retaliate against her.
And today, Hoshino Jun, inspired by Akemi, used a very similar move to hers.
After paying and walking to the exit, seeing Takasaki Tamako rushing towards him, Hoshino Jun suddenly feigned a move, stopping in front of Takasaki Tamako, who was about to brush past him.
The boy who had been bullied by a wicked dragon, eventually became a new wicked dragon.
"Ow ow ow, hiss~!"
As a strong man with 9 stamina points, Hoshino Jun, though perfectly fine, still feigned a dizzy appearance and slowly got up.
Then, ignoring Takasaki Tamako's outstretched hand, he grabbed her fair, snow-white ankle, then held a smooth, delicate leg, feeling the suppleness of the woman's leg skin, and slowly climbed up.
"Ah, this sir."
Because she was a moral woman.
Takasaki Tamako was very resistant to being touched by the opposite sex, but since she was the one who bumped into him first, she couldn't think of a reason to stop him from continuing to climb up her leg.
Those hands, still unhurried, moved from her ankle to her calf, then from her calf to her knee, and then from her knee…
Over her skirt…
Strongly grabbed her thigh…
And…
There was a tendency to continue upwards.
!!!
Facing the man's repeated advances, Takasaki Tamako completely lost her composure. With strength from who knows where, she backed away, pulling her leg out of the man's hand.
Then she raised her palm, ready to swing it at the man's face.
However.
It was at this moment.
Takasaki Tamako no longer bent over to apologize, and Hoshino Jun also raised his head to look at her.
'How could it be him!'
Seeing this picturesque young face, Takasaki Tamako finally slammed on the brakes, not letting her slap land on this incomparably handsome face.
Hitting a hooligan was fine.
But hitting such a perfect handsome man was a bit 'dame' (no good).
She couldn't bear it.
She really couldn't bring herself to do it.
"Sister, why are you here?"
The wind in the passageway was always strong; every summer, architectural passages were a summer retreat.
The black hair of the boy sitting on the ground fluttered along with the skirt of the beautiful woman in front of him.
It was white.
After a careful glance, Hoshino Jun said, "What a coincidence."
Noticing where Hoshino Jun's gaze was focused, Takasaki Tamako blushed and hurriedly pressed down her skirt, exclaiming, "Don't look there!"
With that kind of perverted gaze.
If Hoshino Jun wasn't so handsome, Takasaki Tamako would really have rewarded his face with a slap.
Looking at the flustered Takasaki, Hoshino Jun slowly got up from the ground: "Sister, you're really impolite. You bumped into me, didn't help me up, and then you wanted to hit me."
Takasaki Tamako opened her mouth, wanting to say something to explain, but couldn't.
Suddenly.
She remembered the suspense Hoshino Jun had left earlier.
"So, that 'destiny' you mentioned before, what exactly is it?"
"Is Sister changing the subject?"
Hoshino Jun unceremoniously exposed Takasaki Tamako's thoughts.
The air solidified for a moment.
After a while…
Hoshino Jun suddenly beamed, his eyes filled with a gentle light:
"You're a bit dense, Sister."
"What are you talking about? I'm sincerely asking."
"If you can, Sister, help me pick up the ingredients that fell on the ground, and I will tell you the destiny I spoke of."
Perhaps he deliberately lowered his voice.
The boy's voice was like a gentle breeze, blowing into Takasaki Tamako's heart, making her forget Hoshino Jun's rude actions just now.
Instead, she rekindled the guilt she had initially felt for bumping into the boy.
"I understand, Gomen nasai!"
After apologizing again, Takasaki Tamako bent over, her rear end raised, to pick up the food items that had fallen on the ground for Hoshino Jun. Fortunately, they all had relatively exquisite packaging, otherwise, they would probably have gotten dirty.
What she didn't notice was that while she was focused on picking them up, Hoshino Jun's gaze was also intently observing her.
Her long, black hair fell naturally, obscuring the 'mountains'.
The 'mountains' were faintly visible, and under the pull of gravity, their curves could be clearly seen.
It was a sizable mound.
If he could, Hoshino Jun really wanted to emulate the Foolish Old Man and move the 'mound'.
"I've picked them up. Check if anything is missing. If the count isn't accurate, I'll compensate you."
"Compensation? There's no need for that!" Hoshino Jun smiled: "How about you, Sister, walk out with me? We can chat as we go, and I'll tell you about destiny."
With that, Hoshino Jun picked up one shopping bag from beside Takasaki Tamako, while the other was left to her without question.
Right now, Takasaki Muneki was most likely trying to find a way to fire Hoshino Jun's two aunts.
Both aunts, who were very important to Hoshino Jun, would be sad if they were fired, so Hoshino Jun naturally had to get revenge for his aunts.
He would bully Takasaki Muneki's wife.
And Yusuke-kun…
What are you and Yamada Tsukasa doing right now?
Do you know that your mother has already met a man named Hoshino Jun?
"Hey, your things."
"Sister, help me carry them!"
To be honest, although she really wanted to know what Hoshino Jun was hiding, for Takasaki Tamako right now…
The most important thing, of course, was to buy groceries for the family.
But she had first misunderstood Hoshino Jun, then bumped into Hoshino Jun, causing him harm twice.
He left a bag for her to carry, and she couldn't very well refuse.
Besides…
It was really hard to say no to such a handsome boy's request.
"Ugh, so heavy!"
Takasaki Tamako hadn't expected that the things Hoshino Jun carried with one hand, she could barely lift with two.
Was his strength really that great?
Following the boy's footsteps, the beautiful woman Takasaki Tamako walked a very difficult path.
Finally…
After leaving the exit and stepping into the sunlight, Hoshino Jun's footsteps finally stopped.
Takasaki Tamako didn't stop and bumped into Hoshino Jun's back again.
"Gomen nasai!"
This was her third apology of the day.
Because she had been doing manual labor, this time, her voice was a little reluctant.
"Sister, stop apologizing, listen to me."
"Hm?"
Under the dazzling sunlight, the boy turned around and met the gaze of the tired Takasaki Tamako.
With their backs to the passing crowd.
In broad daylight, as Takasaki Tamako put down the items he had purchased, Hoshino Jun suddenly grabbed Takasaki Tamako's wrist and pushed his classmate's beautiful mother against the wall.
This should be called a 'kabedon', right!
