The black pantyhose had a slight yellowish tint under the bright yellow light.
The girl walked briskly to the door.
Open the door.
A mountain hibiscus was quietly leaning against the door frame.
A gentle breeze stirs.
The delicate fragrance of mountain hibiscus then wafted into the small shop.
"smell good!"
Kasumigaoka was pleasantly surprised to pick up a mountain bloom.
"Manager, it's Yamabuki Hana!"
Girls have a natural love for flowers.
This mountain hibiscus was blooming exceptionally brightly and was extremely fragrant.
Even Kasumigaoka, once acquired, is reluctant to let go.
Aoba, who was in the kitchen, was slightly taken aback.
Upon smelling the delicate floral fragrance wafting in, he thought the 'fox spirit' girl had returned.
It turns out it was just a wild hibiscus flower.
"That's a guest's thing. Can you help me get it in?"
Aoba's words caused Kasumigaoka to visibly pause in surprise.
Does this flower have an owner?
And it was even secretly placed at the shop manager's door.
That really raises suspicions.
Kasumigaoka Utaha walked in and handed the Yamabuki Hana to Aoba.
At the same time, I was also very curious, and even felt a little jealous.
"Manager, could it be that you've taken advantage of some girl and then dumped her, and now she's come knocking on your door?"
Aoba paused subconsciously.
Then flick your finger lightly.
Snapped!
A faint red mark appeared on the girl's smooth forehead.
"Don't talk nonsense. If it's a monster and it takes you away, I won't be responsible."
"oops!"
Kasumigaoka Utaha covered her forehead, looking at Aoba with a resentful gaze:
"The store manager looks guilty. It really is a girl."
Aoba smiled helplessly.
"That's right, she's a very elegant girl."
He recalled the girl who came to the store early this morning. She was about the same age as Kasumigaoka, but she always gave him a mature Yamato Nadeshiko vibe.
That kind of charm is really captivating.
Seeing that Aoba's gaze seemed to be reminiscing, the girl couldn't help but feel jealous.
"Hmm—what kind of girl could win over the shop manager's charm?"
His tone was somewhat sarcastic, subtly hinting at an unclear purpose.
Regarding Kasumigaoka's sour tone.
Aoba understood this very clearly.
"Haha, what if I said she was the most elegant girl I've ever met?"
Many guests come here.
That girl left a very special impression on Aoba.
As one of the few women who had close contact with Aoba, her temperament was truly unique and extremely attractive.
Hearing Aoba's words, Kasumigaoka gritted his teeth secretly.
The hand placed below was also clenched tightly.
A little unhappy.
Just a little bit.
"Also, will Qiu be jealous?"
Aoba turned around and asked Kasumigaoka with a mischievous smirk.
"Tsk!"
"How can it be!!"
Kasumigaoka first refuted Aoba's doubts in a slightly high-pitched voice.
Then, with her usual mischievous look, she asked:
"It's rare to hear the store manager speak so highly of other girls. Could it be that something happened between him and her..."
Even though the girl didn't say it aloud, the meaning behind her words was very clear.
boom!
The familiar hand chop fell once again.
Aoba stared speechlessly at Kasumigaoka, who was clutching his head: "Are you an idiot?"
It's not good to talk about others behind their backs.
"Besides, I might actually prefer certain people to others..."
same.
Before Aoba could finish speaking, his gaze lingered excessively on Kasumigaoka.
Even Kasumigaoka, who had never had that kind of experience before.
After feeling Aoba's burning gaze, her face involuntarily turned bright red.
Weiwei hugged herself tightly, hiding under the table, and said coquettishly:
"Damn it!!"
"Manager, it's illegal to lay a hand on a high school student!"
"Really? But a lot of people get married after graduating from high school! And isn't Kasumigaoka already a third-year student?"
"Absolutely not!"
The girl seemed to be hearing Aoba speak so boldly for the first time, her face turning red all the way to her neck.
Those eyes, which had always pretended to be mature, were now slightly lowered.
The whispered murmurs seemed to be audible only to the girl herself.
"He's really good at it. The shop manager really knows how to bully girls."
"I can hear you!"
Aoba's voice came from the kitchen.
Before the girl could reorganize her thoughts, Aoba had already placed a covered dish in front of her.
He leaned forward slightly, his captivating eyes seeming to capture the girl in an instant.
The distance between the two also shortened at this moment.
"and..."
The boy's voice sounded very ambiguous.
He gently brushed aside the girl's blushing hair, revealing the hair clip that he had taken from her some time ago.
"I only bully Kasumigaoka-kun!"
Chapter 32 Glowing Cuisine?! Matsu, behave yourself!!!
Aoba was just teasing Kasumigaoka in a prank.
Then he turned around and went back to the kitchen.
This mountain hibiscus plant must be carefully preserved.
Regardless of why that 'fox spirit' girl sent it here.
But as an outstanding man of the new era.
He would treat the mountain hibiscus flower just as he had done before, by placing the girl on the bench to rest.
"Also, fried rice doesn't taste good if it gets cold."
Aoba placed the pale yellow mountain hibiscus in a tall bottle in the back kitchen and added a little water.
This way it won't wither too quickly.
If you have time, you should buy a real vase and grow this Yamabuki bonsai.
After all, it was a gift from a 'fox demon'.
Maybe it will never wither, just like a monster with a very long lifespan.
Inside the lobby.
Kasumigaoka remained discreet until Aoba returned to the kitchen, at which point she revealed her shy gaze.
Under bright yellow light.
