My deskmate is actually my yandere reader.

"morning……"

She instinctively greeted him and snuggled closer to Kurose Izumi's warm and reassuring chest.

"Good morning," Kurose Izumi replied gently, stroking her head tenderly.

"What time is it?"

"do not know."

"It seems like we've done a lot."

"You're only realizing it now?"

The two looked at each other, and as they talked, their lips met again, and they couldn't separate.

This time, Kurose Izumi took the initiative to press her body against Shiraishi Chire, possessing her to her heart's content, and biting her to leave marks where no one else could see.

Chire Shiraishi quite likes this.

Over time, he developed a habit of it.

Afterwards, Kurose Izumi got up and carried Shiraishi Chiren to the bathroom to bathe together.

After taking a shower, Kurose Izumi got out of the bathtub, went to the wardrobe, took out two bath towels, dried herself off first, and then wrapped them around her.

"Qianlian, get up."

Then, he returned to the bathtub, pulled up Shiraishi Chiren with one hand, and wiped her body clean.

Back in the Japanese-style room, he dried her hair and helped her put on the clothes she had just taken off.

Only then was the finishing touches complete.

After changing their clothes, the two rested together for a while before coming outside the villa.

The reason I came out was because I was hungry.

They strolled hand in hand, seemingly unconcerned.

On the streets, warm yellow lanterns have been lit, and men and women carrying cloth bags, wearing bathrobes and wooden clogs are walking around.

The shops are lined up one after another, with long queues on both sides that seem to stretch as far as the eye can see.

The shouts of vendors selling hot food were incessant.

The two walked and stopped frequently, eventually stopping in front of a ramen shop by the roadside.

Kurose Izumi asked softly, "Is ramen okay?"

“Yes, that’s fine.” Shiraishi Chiren nodded, without any objection.

So they lifted the curtain hanging in front of the shop and went inside.

Welcome!

After hearing the sound of the curtain being lifted, the shop owner looked up and politely greeted him.

The next moment, he lowered his head again and continued working.

In front of him was a stove from which a misty steam rose.

On the stove were two more pots, one containing thick, white broth, and the other containing boiling water.

The shop owner skillfully placed the noodles into a pot of bubbling, boiling water.

Then, he took a large bowl and put in the required seasonings one by one.

Finally, ladle in a spoonful of broth to dissolve the seasonings, add the noodles, sprinkle with a generous amount of chopped green onions, and top with a palm-sized piece of char siu!

Throughout the process, the shop owner's technique was orderly, his movements fluid and skillful, demonstrating exceptional expertise.

Since entering the shop, Izumi Kurose had been watching the owner's noodle-cooking technique.

'A ramen master...'

An idea suddenly arose in his mind.

Looks like we've come to the right place!

He firmly believed that the food at this restaurant must be delicious!

"Hey buddy, the menu's on the table. I don't have time to read it to you while you're looking at me."

The shop owner raised his head again, and while speaking, placed the ramen on the table.

"Ok."

Kurose Izumi nodded and sat down at an empty table with Shiraishi Chiren.

There was a menu on the table; it was only one page long.

It's only one page, and there are only three types of ramen to choose from.

These three types are: "Tenchō Ramen", "Tonkotsu Ramen", and "Signature Ramen"!

Izumi Kurose only knew what "tonkotsu ramen" was, and was clueless about other things.

"Tianchong? Is it where you throw noodles down from the sky and pound them?"

He couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing.

"Quan, what are you laughing at?"

Shiraishi Chiren noticed the slight curve at the corner of his mouth and couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

"Nothing... What would you like to eat? I'll have tonkotsu." Kurose Izumi shook her head, her smile fading as she asked softly.

Shiraishi Chiren glanced at the menu and said, "The same as yours is fine."

"it is good."

Kurose Izumi nodded and shouted to the shop owner, "Boss! Two bowls of tonkotsu ramen!"

"Oh! You're full of energy, buddy."

The shop owner responded loudly, his voice full of energy.

Then, he took out two lumps of flour and put them into two ladles in boiling water to cook.

Next, he took two large bowls and added sesame oil, miso, soy sauce, sesame seeds, and a drop of vinegar to each bowl to make sure the base flavor was sufficient.

After adding the seasonings, I casually ladled in a full spoonful of rich, white broth to mix the flavors evenly.

Finally, add ramen noodles, sprinkle with chopped green onions, and top with char siu.

"Alright, buddy, here are your two bowls of ramen!"

The shop owner shouted and slammed the two bowls of ramen onto the wooden counter.

Although his demeanor was unrestrained, it wasn't off-putting; instead, it made him seem very cheerful.

"Good, good."

Kurose Izumi scratched his head, got up, went to the table, and took the ramen.

He couldn't help but wonder about his boss's unusually loud voice, wondering if it was just part of the local customs.

The bowl for the noodles was huge, bigger than his face, so he had to hold it with both hands.

"Oh, it looks pretty good." Kurose Izumi's eyes lit up as she looked at the noodles in front of her.

The thick white broth is topped with large slices of brown char siu and garnished with bright green scallions.

He couldn't wait to pick up his chopsticks, grab a noodle, and slurp it up.

The noodles were very chewy and springy, quite delicious—

"good to eat!"

Kurose Izumi's eyes suddenly lit up, and she exclaimed in surprise.

As expected, true masters are often found among ordinary people!

The more inconspicuous something is, the more extraordinary its potential lies within it!

Shiraishi Chiren lowered her head slightly, holding chopsticks in one hand and smoothing her hair that fell across her forehead with the other.

She picked up a piece and ate it slowly and deliberately, unlike some people who eat in a rough and uncouth manner.

"Well, it's delicious."

After taking a bite, she gave her honest feedback.

Although the shop looks simple and inconspicuous, and the seasonings and ingredients are ordinary, the taste is surprisingly good.

"Right? Hmm..."

Kurose Izumi chuckled and continued slurping his noodles.

This time he finished quickly, finishing his meal in no time.

Amazingly, even though he ate very quickly, not a single drop of soup or oil spilled out of the bowl!

This is Kurose Izumi's unique skill—cooking rice!

Shiraishi Chiren had only eaten a third of her food when Kurose Izumi had already finished!

So she asked with concern, "Quan, is there enough to eat?"

"That's enough, this portion is more than enough."

Kurose Izumi patted her belly, looking satisfied and comfortable.

After that, he watched Shiraishi Chiren eat her noodles slowly and patiently.

Although it's not good to stare at other people's eating habits, he had nothing else to do, so he could only stare.

"I'm stuffed."

In the end, it took Shiraishi Chiren seventeen minutes to finish her ramen.

Seventeen minutes—that's Kurose Izumi's estimate.

Kurose Izumi propped herself up on the table and said, "Shall we go? Let's take a walk somewhere else and then head back."

"okay."

Shiraishi Chiren nodded, naturally came to his side, and took his hand.
