Chapter 127 You want to cling to Ah Jian, don't you? (1st update)
The three stood outside the door. At first, the two girls looked at each other, but soon they both turned their gaze to Sakamoto Ken.

Seeing that look in his eyes, Ken Sakamoto felt as if it were yesterday all over again, and the muscles at the corners of his eyes twitched involuntarily.

"What are you standing there for? Let's go," Sakamoto Ken reminded him.

Natsume Mio stomped her foot. She hadn't even put her shoes on properly yet, so she squatted down and fiddled with the uppers of her shoes. Then she stood up and tugged at the white silk fabric on her legs, straightening it.

Mikazuki Haruna glanced sideways at Natsume Mio, her gaze sweeping over the girl's legs before settling on the girl's chest.

Ha... Big breasts must mean no brains.

She grabbed Sakamoto Ken's left arm and led him toward the side of the path: "Ken, let's go."

Seeing this, Natsume Mio immediately followed and wrapped her arms around Sakamoto Ken's right arm.

So, Ken Sakamoto was taken hostage by two girls, one on each side, and led towards the parking lot.

The parking lot is located not far to the left of the studio, and it's also right next to a convenience store.

Haruna Mikazuki took out her car keys and walked towards the eye-catching red Panamera.

Upon seeing this car, Natsume Mio paid special attention to the position of the front bumper.

"Tsk tsk," Natsume Mio remarked, "You fixed the damage so quickly?"

Haruna Mikazuki said, "Everyone bumps and scrapes their wheels when driving."

"It's just that your driving skills are terrible," Natsume Mio bluntly pointed out.

"Tch." Mikazuki Haruna scoffed, unconvinced. "You talk like you're a great driver. Why don't you try?"

“I’m evaluating your driving skills, but I don’t need to know how to drive myself,” Natsume Mio said matter-of-factly.

Haruna Mikazuki was taken aback, then turned to Ken Sakamoto: "Ken, can you drive?"

Ken Sakamoto smiled bitterly to himself.

It's more than just holding meetings.

Last week, he drove this Panamera more than Haruna herself.

After all, this guy's driving skills... are really hard to describe.

But his driving skills, all his driving skills, had been tested by the three girls.

However, at this point in 2015, he had not yet taken the driving test.

While driving the car away is certainly not a problem, it could be troublesome if the police conduct a stopover.

He calmly shook his head: "No."

"Look!" Mikazuki Haruna immediately became smug, raising her chin at Natsume Mio, "Among everyone here, I'm the only one who can drive!"

As she spoke, she walked to the passenger side, opened the car door, and smiled slightly at Ken Sakamoto, saying, "Ken, sit in the front~"

However, before Ken Sakamoto could respond, Mio Natsume had already grabbed his arm and pulled him to the back row: "Let's sit in the back."

"Hey!" Haruna Mikazuki immediately complained, "If you all sit in the back, won't I look like the driver?"

“You were a driver, weren’t you?” Natsume Mio said without turning her head.

"You???" Mikazuki Haruna was so angry that the veins on her forehead were throbbing.

As the two were about to argue over seating again, Ken Sakamoto felt a throbbing pain in his temples.

He gently patted Natsume Mio's hand, signaling her to let go, and said to her, "Mio, you can sit in the front."

Then, he opened the back door himself, bent down, and sat down.

Although Natsume Mio was somewhat reluctant, since it was Ken who spoke, she pouted and got into the passenger seat.

"Humph."

Haruna Mikazuki looked at the final result. Although it wasn't the most perfect solution, it was still acceptable, so she got into the driver's seat.

The car doors were closed, shutting out the outside noise.

Ken Sakamoto leaned back in the soft leather seats in the back, his gaze sweeping over the familiar layout of the car.

This was the first time he had sat in Haruna's car this time around. Everything was exactly as he remembered.

The burgundy interior is particularly striking, and a faint citrus fragrance permeates the air.

Last week, he did drive this car much more than Haruna.

They had driven this car to many places, from remote mountaintop viewpoints to deserted rural beaches...

In those undisturbed corners, the car becomes their space to let loose.

only……

Ken Sakamoto's gaze fell to his side, specifically to the control panel protruding from the middle of the back row.

The design of this executive car is indeed a nuisance.

Whether she was lying on it or sitting on it, she couldn't seem to find a position that satisfied her enough.

In the end, we decided to fold down the passenger seat, as it was more suitable for us.

That is, the seat where Mio is sitting now.

However, the space inside the car is ultimately limited, so it always feels a bit restrictive.

Ken Sakamoto also recalled that once Haruna got so into it that she moved too much and accidentally twisted her ankle in the car.

When he saw her wincing in pain, he said, "Never mind, we'll do it next time."

But this guy gritted his teeth, hissing in pain, and stubbornly insisted he was fine, determined to continue...

When he finally screamed in pain, it was unclear whether it was because of his ankle.

Those fragments of memory flooded his mind, leaving Sakamoto Ken with mixed feelings.

The vehicle started and drove out of the parking lot.

It's only a ten-minute drive from the studio to Kanzaki Art Academy.

The carriage remained silent throughout the journey.

Natsume Mio sat in the passenger seat, occasionally glancing at Sakamoto Ken in the back seat through the rearview mirror.

Haruna Mikazuki kept an eye on the movements around her and behind her as she drove.

No one took the initiative to start a conversation.

Soon, the gates of Kanzaki Art Academy came into view.

Today is the registration day for new students, and there are many people coming and going at the school gate, most of whom are new students.

Formal classes will begin a few days later, after the entrance ceremony.

Mikazuki Haruna did not stop at the school gate, but drove straight in.

The license plate recognition device captured her license plate number, and the barrier gate automatically lifted, indicating that she had registered for parking on campus.

Driving along the road around the school, the pedestrian area on the other side is noticeably more lively.

Various stalls were lined up in a row, covered with all sorts of flags and posters.

"Is that where clubs are recruiting new members?"

Natsume Mio looked out the window curiously. Although she seemed to have experienced university in that dream, everything was vague except for the part related to Ken, so it still felt very new to her.

"Do you want to go take a look?" Mikazuki Haruna stopped the car directly by the roadside and asked, turning her head. "If you want to go, you can get off here."

Natsume Mio turned around and glanced at Sakamoto Ken in the back row.

Ken Sakamoto shook his head: "I have no plans to join any clubs, and I don't have the time."

“Oh, oh,” Natsume Mio immediately turned around and said to Mikazuki Haruna, “I’m not going to go either. Clubs and stuff are boring.”

"Tch." Mikazuki Haruna pouted, slightly disappointed.

You just want to cling to Ah Jian, don't you!
