“…What!” Wang Yuehua’s cheeks flushed slightly as she avoided the boy’s gaze.
She twisted her waist, crossed her arms, and looked at the sunlight on the windowsill, whether to dispel shyness or embarrassment, it was hard to tell.
"A composite mattress made of latex and foam, with an independent spring support layer—isn't that enough for you guys to keep messing around with?!"
"...That's not what I meant."
Jun Matsuoka stood up, and the woman immediately turned her head, her long, straight legs together and apart, disappearing out the door.
"I'm going to check my room!"
The sound of her aunt's boots, like the clatter of horses' hooves, quickly faded into the distance. The boy turned to look at the girl on the bed.
"Don't worry about her, Auntie doesn't have much experience with this kind of thing," Mochizuki Haruka replied casually.
"She's just like any other girl in school in this respect—she's very curious in front of her friends, asking all sorts of questions, but when she's with boys, she becomes extremely reserved, and she'll shout and criticize them when they talk about girls' bodies."
"By the way—" the girl patted the bed beneath her.
"This house is very soundproof; unless you shout really loudly, your aunt won't hear you."
"...What?" Jun Matsueda glanced at her. "Do you want to try it now?"
“I didn’t say that~” Mochizuki Haruka jumped up from the bed.
"Just to put Songzhi at ease."
"Let's go." She stood up and patted her skirt. "Let's go see Aunt's room too."
As a guest room in my aunt's room, it naturally doesn't have much stuff, just like the master bedroom, except for a bed that isn't much smaller.
It's worth mentioning that the girl pounced on it to feel it – and it was exactly the same model as the "durable" bed next door.
"This bed is for me to sleep in!" Auntie emphasized, blushing.
"You're not allowed to use it for anything shady, do you hear me!"
After trying out the two new beds, the women of the Mochizuki family took a quick look at the bathroom and washbasin, while Matsueda Jun tried out the stove—since they hadn't moved in yet, there wasn't much to see, and the three of them quickly returned to the living room.
The boy sat in the corner of the sofa, while Wangyue leaned against him and his aunt, basking in the sun and discussing where to go next.
Jun Matsuoka didn't need to speak, because he had no choice—just like the way the house was decorated was done without his input.
"Let's wander around Meguro and find a cafe or dessert shop to grab a drink!"
The aunt and niece quickly made a decision, neatly put on their coats, and drew the curtains. The boy followed behind them toward the entrance—but as soon as he stepped out the door, Matsueda Jun paused.
The boy's hand touched the electronic doorbell by the door, which reminded him of something.
Leaving the apartment and sitting in the warm back seat bathed in the riverside sun, Jun Matsueda took out his phone and sent a message to the parrot avatar in his contact list.
"Did you install an electronic doorbell later? You haven't mentioned it in your messages these past few days."
"Ah," Yami Maki replied quickly.
"It's installed! My landlady came to have it installed last weekend when I was working!"
The girl sent another picture, which was of an electronic doorbell installed by the door with the protective film still on.
"But I don't know if it's because of the sticker Matsueda-kun mentioned, no one has rung my doorbell these past few days, so I forgot about it and forgot to tell you..."
The boy looked at the picture carefully. Even on the small, dark screen, he could still make out the shadow of the senior girl in her pajamas, so it seemed to have been taken just now.
"Anyway, it's installed now, that's good."
He put his phone away for a moment because the car had stopped again.
My aunt opened the car door first, then quickly climbed back into the car.
"Let's not shop around here anymore, let's go home and have coffee!"
Mochizuki Haruka looked at her angry face, "What's wrong?"
"As soon as I got out of the car, I heard 'Happy End' playing in the store!" The woman closed the car door tightly and gestured for the driver to go straight back to the manor. "My good mood is completely ruined!"
Jun Matsue, who had been stretching his neck, pulled it back in, but the two gazes of the Mochizuki family were already fixed on him, so he could only smile nonchalantly.
"There are quite a few coffee shops around here, right? Should we go to another one?"
“We’ll hear it at any other store!” Wang Yuehua glared at him while holding her niece. “This song is so popular, everyone will definitely play it.”
"I hear it several times on the street after I leave the company—Matsueda-kun's songs for other women are really popular, aren't they?"
The woman's words were clearly sarcastic. Mochizuki Haruka didn't say anything. She blinked innocently and clung to her aunt like a delicate doll.
"This is a commercial song," the boy said humbly and sincerely.
"Actually, the prototype of this song is also a story between me and Xiaoyao."
"That was written for Laiqi Yangshi too!" Wang Yuehua continued relentlessly.
"Besides, it's not just her business. Isn't the youngest daughter of the Yamami family also involved in some ambiguous relationship with you?"
If it weren't for the fact that his aunt was just chatting with his niece, Jun Matsuoka would have really suspected that she had been peeking at his phone screen.
He coughed lightly twice. "Auntie, there's something wrong with what you're saying. Yamami-senpai and I broke up a long time ago. We have a completely innocent relationship now."
"The relationship between an ex-girlfriend and an ex-boyfriend can never be innocent!" Wang Yuehua made such a shocking statement.
Seeing a hint of helplessness finally appear in the boy's eyes, she straightened her chest even more forcefully.
"Matsueda Jun, let me remind you—"
"Xiaoyao's acceptance doesn't mean I accept it. You'd better clean up your own romantic relationships and cut ties with those that need to be cut off as soon as possible!"
She will protect Xiaoyao's happiness!
Of course, it's good to be prepared for both possibilities... The woman thought to herself as she looked at the road rolling ahead of the car.
In any case, Matsue has already agreed to work for the Mochizuki family and take over family affairs.
As long as his future life path is tied to the Mochizuki family, the Mochizuki family will definitely be the one to win in the end!
Chapter 803 The temperature is dropping, and waves are rising.
That afternoon, Jun Matsue had afternoon tea at the Mochizuki family's residence—until sunset, when his aunt reluctantly let him and Mochizuki return to their apartment.
As for the stance shown by his aunt, the boy's attitude was simple—
I understand and respect them, but I will never repent.
After all, he was dating Mochizuki Haruka, not Mochizuki Hana—no matter how much his aunt objected, it wouldn't make much difference.
As long as it doesn't affect his relationship with Mochizuki, he can object if he wants... Matsueda Jun can already see his future aunt getting even angrier.
Because his planned future doesn't just involve Tomatsu and Mochizuki.
So on Wednesday night, when Yosei Kurusu suddenly pushed open the door and excitedly jumped onto his bed, Jun Matsueda, who was about to go to sleep, did not push her away.
"What's going on?" The boy sat up, still wrapped in a blanket, and looked at the idol girl whose arms he had grabbed.
"Is Kurusu planning to honor the bet tonight?"
"No, no~" Kurusu Yosei chuckled and rolled over on the bed, breaking free from his grasp.
"Just now, Happy End has officially surpassed 20 million streams!"
"..." Jun Matsue blinked.
The idol's soft body was pressing against him through the blanket—the girl had just taken a bath, and her fragrant scent, along with her warmth, dispelled his sleepiness.
"...Is today the tenth day?" The boy nudged him, letting Kurusu sit on his lap—it felt less stimulating that way.
"It took a little longer than I expected. Didn't you break 10 million views in just five days?"
“The platforms are different, and there’s also the issue of ‘statistical methods’ that Sister Ju mentioned…” Kurosaki Yosei sat on the boy’s lap and happily twisted her body.
"Moreover, when the new song is released, my fans will definitely listen to it as soon as possible, so the growth rate will definitely be slower in the first few days."
"I originally thought it wouldn't reach 20 million until tomorrow, but today 'Tomorrow's Me, Yesterday's You' premiered! So the viewership has started to skyrocket again~"
“Congratulations…” Jun Matsue looked at the girl sitting like a duck on his lap.
The loose long sleeves of her pajamas slipped off her shoulders, revealing the delicate skin of her shoulders and collarbone.
How about we buy a cake to celebrate tomorrow?
"No rush~" Kurusu Yosei said, resting her hands on the boy's thighs, "Happy End hasn't reached its peak performance yet!"
"And Matsue's been pretty busy lately, hasn't he? I've seen you doing homework with Mochizuki at home all the time."
Matsueda Jun met her bright, misty eyes. "Because finals are coming up soon."
The girl's healthy thighs pressed against him—luckily it wasn't summer, and the blanket was thick enough that the sensation wasn't too noticeable.
When do pine branches get their holidays?
"The exam will be held for two days this weekend, and then we'll have a holiday."
"Hmm..." The girl looked up and thought for a moment.
"Let's go see a movie next Monday!"
"...'Tomorrow's Me and Yesterday's You'?" The boy blinked.
“Yes!” Miss Idol nudged his chest. “I checked the reviews for today’s premiere, and they were all pretty good.”
"So let's go see it then!"
Monday... Jun Matsue quickly thought it over. There were no reservations from the girls, nor any special arrangements.
"no problem."
"Then it's settled!" Kurusu Yosei got out of bed and gave him a seductive wink.
"Pine branches tonight, don't forget your date with me on Monday!"
She skipped and hopped out of the room. The boy stared at the door that had been closed again, and after two seconds he lay back down in bed, staring at the ceiling in front of him.
"...A date?"
He turned off the bedroom light.
The next day, Thursday at noon, Jun Matsue ate lunch alone in the cafeteria and returned to the teaching building with two bags of packed rice balls in his pocket.
As he stepped through the back door of the classroom, the dry warmth of the heater shone on his face, licking away the moisture from his cheeks.
Mochizuki Haruka and Tomatsu Yuka, who were originally sitting upright, both looked over. The boy blinked and took out the package he had hidden in his chest.
"Yuka's tuna mayonnaise rice ball and Mochizuki's grilled eel rice ball are still warm."
"Thank you, Jun-kun~" The girl closest to him smiled and took the bag that belonged to her.
"It's really cold today. I don't want to go to the cafeteria or the crowded convenience store."
"It's really cold, the lowest temperature is only one degree." The boy said as he walked towards the window.
"I heard it might snow in the Tama Mountains tonight."
"We can't see it anyway." Mochizuki Haruka pouted and took the rice ball that was handed to her.
"If you want to see it, you can wait until you have a holiday and go out to play." Jun Matsueda smiled. "Anyway, there aren't many days left."
He meant for Mochizuki to continue studying for a few more days. The girl gave a soft hum and took out the hot coffee she had just bought from the drawer.
The boy sat back down and watched for a while as the girls on either side enjoyed their lunch.
After enjoying the adorable eating habits of Mochizuki and Tomatsu, he glanced at the clock on the table, then got up and walked towards the back door.
Tomatsu Yuka put down her matcha milk and looked at the boy walking past her.
"Is Jun-kun going to see Imokawa-kun?"
"Hmm." Jun Matsue paused in his steps.
"Didn't I tell you about her situation last time? I think it would be better to ask her more questions."
"Understood." The girl waved her small hand holding the triangular rice ball.
"Go early and come back early!"
She turned around only after the boy closed the classroom door and the swirling cold air disappeared.
Sitting by the window, Mochizuki Haruka stopped chewing and met her gaze.
"what?"
