Chapter 40 Maki's "Coldness"
"I have already made a reservation at the restaurant tonight."
Miyazawa Maki stared at Sawayama Haruno, pursed her lips and said, "It's almost time to go out, otherwise the store will cancel our seats if the reservation time is too long."
"Oh let's go then."
Maki Miyazawa's reminder brought Sawayama Haruno back from his trance.
He was simply stunned by Miyazawa Maki's look.
The other party is very different from Miyazawa Mana in terms of clothing style and makeup. If her sister Mana's image is an angel in a white dress with a pure and flawless appearance, then Miyazawa Maki is definitely more inclined to the image of a little devil.
She deliberately chose a white miniskirt with black stockings, and the same pure white top was tied up at the waist. Her seductive belly button was faintly visible in the swaying of the clothes, making it difficult to take your eyes off it.
Looking further up, you can see Miyazawa Maki's deliberately stern face, but her expression is obviously not right, her cheeks are slightly flushed, with a hint of inexplicable shyness.
The pair of eyes that usually appeared cold now seemed to be humble, constantly moving back and forth, not daring to look anyone in the eye.
"Is this the legendary cold and charming character?"
Sawayama Haruno thought.
I've been so used to seeing Maki Miyazawa in pajamas these past two days that I almost forgot that she looks better in other clothes.
When they were in the same high school, he had hardly seen her in casual clothes because they had to wear uniforms. Now, he felt that she was inexplicably tempted.
This is probably what I was thinking just now, the so-called "cold and delicate"?
Miyazawa Maki deliberately pretends to be very cold and indifferent, but her tsundere nature is still lingering, and the two characteristics complement each other very well.
Not to mention that the other party only looks like a little devil on the outside, but actually has zero experience. This kind of little devil with attractive appearance but pure heart seems to be more likely to attract others, right?
"No, it's not like I have no experience at all. After all, there was what happened last night."
While Sawayama Haruno was lost in thought, he followed Miyazawa Maki out of the house.
After taking the elevator downstairs, I didn't see Kazuki Takashima in the reception hall, but this also saved me unnecessary trouble.
Sawayama Haruno could imagine that if he met the other person when he went out to eat with Miyazawa Maki, Takashima Kazuki, who couldn't control his mouth, would come up and make some boring jokes.
She even said something like cousin. If I had known, I wouldn't have told her last time that Maki was her sister.
Sawayama Haruno shook his head, and when he looked at Miyazawa Maki who was walking in front of him, he couldn't help but ask: "Is the restaurant you booked close? Doesn't this road lead to the station?"
He thought that Miyazawa Maki would take this opportunity to go to Ginza and other high-end places for dinner, but he didn't expect that the other party seemed to be planning to choose a nearby place?
“No need to go to the station”
Without even turning around, Miyazawa Maki said, "I picked a restaurant not far from here. Can we just walk there? Or do you want to take a taxi?"
"It's fine if it's close, but there aren't many restaurants worth booking in these areas, right?" Sawayama Haruno asked in confusion, "Which restaurant did you book?"
"Ask questions here and there, can't you just follow me?"
Miyazawa Maki ended the topic impatiently.
She didn't want to explain too much to the other party. After all, it was he who suggested going out for dinner in the evening, and it was he who agreed to let her choose the restaurant. So wasn't it all right for him to just follow her?
This guy
If he knew that we were going to the restaurant where I often ate with my sister in high school, he might just turn around and leave?
Miyazawa Maki puffed up her cheeks, looking a little unhappy.
She didn't know why she was unhappy, but she was just unhappy, and she had to blame Zeshan Haruno.
Yes, that's right, it's all the other's fault. Miyazawa Maki, who was walking in front, complained in her heart for no apparent reason, but Sawayama Haruno, who was walking behind, was completely unaware and was still immersed in the night view not far away.
Tokyo is a city whose charm can only be appreciated at night.
This is Shinjuku, which is not the most developed area in Tokyo, but it is perhaps the place where people can feel the strongest atmosphere of different eras.
After passing the Dobashi Bridge, you can see Shinjuku's bustling commercial street. Many young women who are taking a weekend break put on heavy makeup, wear platform shoes that are thicker and taller than the other, and walk around the street arm in arm, laughing and joking.
Vehicles speeding past on the roadside honked from time to time, the red, blue and yellow neon lights on both sides of the street flickered, and the crowds of people surged, like a flowing music.
——This street scene is not unfamiliar to Sawayama Haruno.
No matter how careless he was, there was no way he couldn't have forgotten this road, because he had been here once yesterday. Not only yesterday, but he had been here many times before.
He knew where Miyazawa Maki's destination was without even having to think.
Sure enough, after walking for about ten minutes, the familiar restaurant sign appeared in front of me again.
Maki Miyazawa, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, glanced back at Sawayama Haruno, and snorted.
Obviously, she was secretly observing whether Sawayama Haruno would turn around and leave.
"So this is the restaurant, don't you want to go in?"
Sawayama Haruno narrowed his eyes and smiled, "I guess Mana has never brought you here before, right?"
“I’ve been here.”
Miyazawa Maki's attitude was a little cold, "But it wasn't delicious, I only ate a little and left."
If it doesn’t taste good, why did you choose this place again this time?
Sawayama Haruno couldn't help but complain in his heart. It seemed that the other party was mostly angry. It was rare for him to come out on his day off to relax. If he forced himself to eat in a restaurant he didn't like for such an excuse, wouldn't that be such a waste?
The other person doesn’t think that life can be restarted at any time, right?
Enjoy it when you should!
"If you insist, go in."
After expressing his impassioned thoughts in his heart, Sawayama Haruno looked at Miyazawa Maki and said with a smile, "You have been standing at the door the whole time. The waiter inside didn't know whether to open the door or not."
"I just haven't decided whether to eat here or not." Miyazawa Maki said stubbornly.
Fortunately, Sawayama Haruno had already seen through her thoughts and knew that she would not change places, so he gently pushed her shoulder and walked inside.
The waiter, who had been observing inside for half a day, immediately opened the door.
Although he was still a little puzzled as to why the "young couple" who seemed to have a good relationship yesterday suddenly became angry and quarreled today, he still forced a smile and greeted them with his professional spirit: "Dear guests, welcome again."
"again?"
Miyazawa Maki's face darkened instantly, and her eyes became more hostile.
