Am I being simulated by their love affair.

Chapter 524 "Deception" and Auditions
So the next day at noon, Jun Matsue stood in front of the girl who was focused on her studies.

"Mochizuki, haven't you gone out to play in a long time?"

Mochizuki Haruka looked up at him with a strange expression. "With grades as bad as mine, where would I find the time to go out and play?"

“If failing the University of Tokyo means you have bad grades, then there aren’t many good students at Haneoka High School.” Jun Matsue sat in the empty seat in front of the girl, staring at her.

"I overheard Rion and the others chatting in the cafeteria at noon. They were saying they were planning to go shopping in Shibuya after school."

"It has nothing to do with me." The girl lowered her head, the pen in her hand making a scratching sound on the paper. "There are still two self-study periods after school."

"That's an elective course, you should go out and relax once in a while."

The boy's voice was exceptionally gentle, and Mochizuki Haruka stopped writing. "What about the progress I've fallen behind on?"

"Anyway, you feel like you haven't improved much lately, right? Why don't you work a little less hard today and go shopping with them?" Jun Matsue looked at the girl with sincere eyes.

"When you're stuck in a rut, just trying your best might not be very effective. Instead, try changing your mindset and doing something else. When you come back, the problem might just be solved."

"Really?" Mochizuki Haruka blinked.

"Anyway, it will definitely help your studies. You're just too tense right now, you know?"

The boy felt like the Big Bad Wolf in a fairy tale, trying to lure the innocent and naive Little Red Riding Hood in front of him.

“…Then I’ll go ask Rion.” The girl got up from her seat and walked towards the glamorous girl by the window in front of her.

Jun Matsue finally breathed a sigh of relief. He returned to his seat and looked at Rion, who nodded with a look of surprise on her face.

A few minutes later, Mochizuki Haruka walked back to the back row, holding the ice cream that the girl had given her. Her complexion looked much better.

"Rion said she'd go to Shibuya 109 after school because the shops there have recently stocked a lot of new clothes."

The boy nodded. He actually had no idea what Shibuya 109 was. "Just have fun."

"Hmm~" The girl made a reserved sound. Slightly relaxed, she looked at the boy's other seat, which was empty.

"Where did Tomatsu go?" Mochizuki Haruka had been focused on her studies lately and hadn't paid much attention to her rival's affairs.

"It seems like he had lunch with Mizushima."

The girl raised an eyebrow in surprise. "You two broke up?"

"not yet."

So she pouted again, "That's boring."

Since we agreed to go shopping after school, we couldn't rest at noon, so today Jun Matsue once again lay on her exclusive black cat body pillow.

When he woke up, the sunlight outside the window was just right, and the wind blew the off-white curtains, which complemented the girl's black hair hanging down.

As Mochizuki was still pondering the problem, the boy stared quietly into her eyes, the depths of which rippled slightly.

After his drowsiness completely dissipated, Jun Matsuoka looked away and glanced at his phone in the drawer.

Natsumi Imokawa sent me a message: "Matsue, Mochizuki's aunt said she's coming to audition for me today, what should I do?"

"Auntie?" the boy replied, "What audition? The fiancée you mentioned before?"

"That's right, Mochizuki said before that her aunt would come to see me if she had time, I didn't expect it to be so soon..."

The girl sent a trembling penguin emoji, which made Jun Matsueda almost laugh.

"You auditioned for her, not the other way around. What's there for Imokawa to panic about?"

"She's an adult... and a super powerful one at that."

The timid face of Imokawa Natsumi was vividly displayed in his mind. Matsueda Jun raised his head and waved his hand in front of Mochizuki Haruka.

"What are you doing?" The girl looked over; she had already noticed that Songzhi was observing her after waking up.

"Did Auntie say we're going to have an audition with Imokawa today?"

"Really?" Mochizuki Haruka took out her cell phone from the pocket of her school uniform skirt.

"That's true. My aunt said she was free today and planned to come and visit the school."

"Are you still going shopping?" The boy asked, glancing at the other seat, which was still empty.

Where did Tomatsu go?
“Of course I’m going,” the girl said without hesitation. “She’s here to see Natsumi Imokawa, not me.”

“But Matsueda would be better off accompanying Imokawa to see his aunt.” Matsueda Jun was a little surprised. “That doesn’t sound like something you would say.”

Mochizuki Haruka rolled her eyes at him. "I just think that with Imokawa's personality, he might be manipulated like a toy by his aunt after they meet. It's better if you stay with her."

Moreover, with her aunt present, she certainly wouldn't give Imokawa Natsumi any chance, so the girl felt quite at ease.

"That makes a lot of sense." The boy nodded and picked up his phone to send a message.

"When are you two meeting? I'll go with you."

“Pine branch!” Natsumi Imokawa sent a bowing penguin emoji. “Right after school.”

"See you after school then."

When the bell rang to end the lunch break, Tomatsu Yuka finally entered the classroom. As soon as the girl returned to her seat, she noticed the questioning look from the boy.

"I went to help Ms. Kominato organize materials at noon, so I didn't go back to the classroom."

"Thank you for your hard work." Jun Matsue nodded. "Don't forget I'm the class monitor. If you have any tasks, you can ask me to help you."

"Because I didn't want to disturb Jun-kun's afternoon nap~" The girl smiled happily.

At 3:20 p.m., the school bell rang.

Mochizuki Haruka and the gal Rion walked out of the classroom together. The girls' laughter and chatter came from the corridor. Tomatsu Yuka packed her schoolbag and looked at the boy sitting in his seat.

"Matsueda-kun didn't go to work today, right?"

Jun Matsue nodded, and the girl waved to him in a cute and gentle gesture.

"I'll be going now, see you tomorrow~"

The remaining students in the class moved towards the study room. The boy followed the crowd out the back door, and as he passed the neighboring Class 3-5, Natsumi Imokawa just came out of there.

"Matsueda!" The girl with a camera hanging around her neck excitedly approached, and Jun Matsueda pushed through the crowd for her as the two walked down the stairs together.

"Did she tell you where to meet?" the boy asked casually.

“She’s right at the door.” Natsumi Imokawa looked at the message on her phone. “She said you would find her.”

Did you tell her I'd go with you?

"Hmm, isn't this more polite?" The girl walked out of the school building, silently swallowing. "Wang Yue told me that her aunt manages the family..."

That's true.

"That must be very dignified, right? Although I'd like a more mature actor, I can't handle someone too powerful..."

"Hmm..." Jun Matsue sketched out the image of his aunt in his mind, "No matter what you think of her, she is definitely not the same as you imagine."

They walked towards the school gate, and Natsumi Imokawa became increasingly curious about the person she was going to meet.

"Isn't he a manager at a large company?"

"Indeed."

"Aren't there many servants attending to you?"

“That’s right, the despicable upper class.”

"Isn't she supposed to have a strong presence and never show her emotions?"

"She does have a certain air about her, but she's not the kind of person who has a poker face."

After the girl finished asking her series of questions, the two had already walked out of the school gate. A low-key yet luxurious black sedan was parked not far across the street, and Jun Matsueda waved to it.

Natsumi Imokawa watched as the car window rolled down, and the woman in the driver's seat took off her sunglasses and smiled at them.

"Matsueda-kun, long time no see! I've come to visit you guys~"

Matsueda Jun sighed, "Please, Aunt, take care of today's important matters first."

Eh?
Natsumi Imokawa paused for a moment. She glanced at the boy next to her, and after confirming that he hadn't said anything wrong, she looked at the beautiful woman she thought was the driver.

The aunt I was promised looks as young as my older sister!
