Chapter 63 Seven Days Under the Stars: One Day Under the Stars

"I am back."

Upon entering the room and hearing Xingge call out, Mingze Feng instinctively followed behind her.

This isn't home, but it's not far off. The room nestled deep within the starry sky of Shimokitazawa has become their secret hideout.

Or rather, a brothel is still a house.

Let's set aside its practical attributes for now.

For both Ijichi Hoshika and Narusawa Kaede, holding a key, having a room to live in, and having an unusual relationship with each other, it's understandable that they would consider this place their home.

The only unusual thing was that a girl's voice responded from backstage.

"Good morning, store manager... no, it's evening now... oh dear?"

It seems that Ichiji Hoshika forgot to introduce her newly hired employee to Naruzawa Kaede. She had mentioned it briefly in the communications before, but Naruzawa Kaede hadn't asked for details.

But the girl's voice coming from the basement hall was so familiar. This made Mingze Feng's heart tighten. Could it be a girl he knew, or even dated?

What if another chaotic scene unfolds?

Will I wear Ichiji Hoshika's Japanese outfit on the spot?

He quickened his pace and took two more steps inside, and then Mingze Feng saw a figure walking out.

She had long, straight black hair, a mole at the corner of her eye, and wore an apron draped with stars. Her pretty face and bright eyes trembled when she saw Narusawa Kaede behind Ichiji Hoshika.

It was Shiina Tatsuki wearing a work uniform and apron.

She instinctively covered her buttocks and took a half step back, but didn't make a sound immediately.

Naruzawa Kaede thought to himself, "If it's Shiina Ritsuki, then there's no problem. If it were Shiina Maki, then I'd need to explain further, but with Ritsuki, there really is nothing between the two of them."

If it exists, it exists; if it doesn't, it doesn't. Only at times like this does Mingze Feng feel truly at peace.

As Naruzawa Kaede breathed a sigh of relief, Iji Tomoko's introduction, though belated, finally arrived. She whispered in Naruzawa Kaede's ear...

"...Hmm, what do you think? Aren't all the items in the store aesthetically pleasing—"

Ichika was only halfway through her sentence when she saw Narusawa Kaede's gaze. Looking at Shiina Tatsuki, there was no trace of unfamiliarity in her eyes as she looked at Narusawa Kaede.

She even seemed a little shy?

Iji Tomoka isn't good at reading people's expressions. When she saw Shiina Tatsuki blushing, she subconsciously attributed it to yet another scumbag act by Narusawa Kaede.

Ijichi Hoshika never imagined that for Shiina Tatsuki, most of the time when she blushed, it was when her face was warm red.

Saying things like, "She's a professional clerk who worked at Ring, and she's very capable," Ijichi Hoshika swallowed them down.

She thought to herself, "These two are probably an adulterous couple."

Just from that fleeting glance across their eyes, Ichiji Hoshika knew that the two of them definitely knew each other. Even the way she looked at Narusawa Kaede became unfriendly again.

The joke in online movies and TV shows that you can run into your ex-girlfriend by hiring any shop assistant seems to have become a reality.

Ijichi Hoshika was also a little confused. It couldn't be such a coincidence, but it seemed so normal that this happened to Narusawa Kaede.

After all, just now, she and her sister were shopping when they ran into his girlfriend.

Thinking about it this way, in just one afternoon, I encountered two women who had connections with Mingze Feng...

Ichika touched her head and shook it. No, she had put hats on them. Hmm, thinking about it that way made things much clearer.

Mingze Feng explained, "...I have no relationship with her. I've worked with her sister twice, but I'm innocent with her sister."

The empty basement echoed with Narusawa Kaede's voice. Shiina Tatsuki's face flushed even more, but seemingly mindful of something, she didn't directly retort as she usually did.

Seeing that Xingge didn't speak, Naruzawa Kaede took her hand and turned to face Shiina Tatsuki.

"I'm not pursuing your sister, I already made that clear last time. Also, I should tell you that I've been dating Xingge for six months."

"If you don't mind, call out to the boss? I'll ask his wife to give you a raise~"

"Who gave you the right to be the boss...?"

Ijichi Hoshika muttered to herself, not breaking free from Naruzawa Kaede's grasp. Her thoughts were complicated, yet she was also happy because of Naruzawa Kaede's actions.

Breaking free from her inner turmoil, Ichiji Hoshika couldn't help but think of... the girl next to Narusawa Kaede in the Circle earlier, who seemed to be facing a similar situation.

Her name is...Mu... right? I wonder if that girl feels the same way I do.

Ichika glanced at Narusawa Kaede.

"You bad guy..." she muttered to herself, then lightly kicked Mingze Feng's leg, tacitly allowing him to introduce himself that way.

He's truly an unabashed scumbag. She both hates and loves him.

Naruzawa Kaede and Shiina Tatsuki exchanged a few more words, their conversation shifting from the aftermath of what happened a few days ago to her older sister.

Shiina Riki's expression was complicated, but she finally nodded, indicating that she was wrong a few days ago.

It seems that Shiina Maki really did give her a good scolding later. To be honest, Narusawa Kaede preferred Shiina Tatsuki's unruly attitude back then; it felt especially good to spank her backside then.

Ijichi Hoshika went to get two drinks halfway through the conversation. Listening to Narusawa Kaede and Shiina Tatsuki's words, she raised an eyebrow and looked at Narusawa Kaede.

"...Hmm? That sounds familiar. Is it the tabloid news about you from a few days ago?"

Mingze Feng nodded helplessly.

With that, the issues that needed explaining have been clarified.

Ichi Seika's expression remained unchanged, with a pensive look on her face, as if she were deep in thought.

Several bands have booked tonight, so I can't close the shop. It's such a hassle...

Mingze Feng realized that she wanted to do it all night...

"Should we just open as usual? I'll stay and help out."

"...Hmm."

Ichi Seika nodded; that was the only way.

......

The venue isn't very big; after all, it mainly provides drinks and a place for a few bands to perform.

Unlike bars in Shinjuku, this place, despite being in Shimokitazawa, doesn't let rock stars like Kikusato Hiroi, who smash bottles on the ground, take the stage.

Because it's near Shimokitazawa High School, and Ijichi Seika is a guy who supports dreams, many light music and girl bands come over to put on music shows.

Technology is only one aspect. Watching young girls jumping and dancing on stage can indeed be quite enjoyable.

Mingze Feng works as a receptionist at the beverage window and also acts as a waiter among the customers.

As Naruzawa Kaede handed over the drink again, he turned around and saw Shiina Tatsuki making it. In addition to the machine-made drinks, the Starry Night Shop now had several handmade beverages, the recipes of which Shiina Tatsuki had brought from Ring.

As for whether it works in increasing sales, Mingze Feng doesn't know.

However, when he saw Naruzawa Kaede's gaze again, Shiina Tatsuki made no attempt to hide his sullen face, looking fierce, but he didn't dare to step forward. His timidity turned into a strange look of grievance at that moment.

It seems that for this girl, working in the same room as Mingze Feng was like being forced to have sex with him repeatedly.

Taking a break from his busy schedule, Mingze Feng said without any hesitation:

"If you smiled even a little at the customers, I wouldn't be here. If you keep wearing that long face, I'm going to ask Xingge to deduct your salary!"

"whispering sound..."

Shiina Tatsuki smiled reluctantly.

Naruzawa Kaede shook his head. Seeing Naruzawa Kaede's expression, Shiina Tatsuki's face darkened even more.

Mingze Feng thought to herself, "That forced smile really doesn't look good on her. It's better for her to stay silent and be an ice queen."

Shiina Ritsuki was furious, but she suppressed it. Because of what happened last time, her older sister had cut off her allowance, and she had to work part-time to make ends meet.

Ijichi Hoshika, who also started as a working-class person, did not become a boss after becoming one. Just as she said when she opened the shop, she would not mistreat her employees.

She's doing well working at both Ring and Starry Night stores, and the hours don't overlap, so she doesn't plan to look for other stores.

Moreover, Shiina Maki repeatedly warned her not to mess around anymore.

If her salary is really reduced because of Mingze Feng's words, she will have to find another job.

I might get another scolding from my sister who always sides with outsiders.

Thinking this, Shiina Tatsuki, feeling wronged, smashed the juice with much more force.

thump -- thump -- thump --

Of course, she couldn't smash the beverage counter. In the end, she could only sheepishly hand the drinks to the customer.

However, she remembered Mingze Feng's parting words.

She managed to force a smile.

"Give."

She thought she heard whispers as the guests left.

'That shop assistant's smile is so creepy.' 'Yeah, she looks pretty good,' 'She's like a complete idiot.'

Shiina Riki was speechless.

But I still have to do this job.

Shiina Tatsuki continues working, while Narusawa Kaede has already escaped.

Halfway through his stint as a waiter, the arrival of the night shift staff greatly relieved the workload. From 10 PM to 4 AM the next day, Mingze Feng no longer needed to stay at the front of the shop.

But since I'm just a temporary employee, I might as well do the job to the end.

The only difference is that the clients have changed to the bosses who are behind the scenes.

It was no burden for Ijichi Hoshika to summon Narusawa Kaede.

She was half-nestled on the edge of the bed, scrolling through videos on her tablet. This was the scene Mingze Feng saw when he arrived at their little apartment.

He's practically a hands-off manager.

After Naruzawa Kaede came to her side, Ijichi Hoshika pouted; she suddenly felt thirsty.

"drinks..."

Mingze Feng brought over cooled boiled water.

Ichiji Hoshika smacked her lips, just about to say it was boring.

The next moment, Mingze Feng's face blocked her view as she continued watching videos, and then they were pressed together.

Liquid was poured into Ijichi Seika's mouth.

Naruzawa Kaede still fed the water into Ijichi Hoshika's mouth.

congratulations.

Ijichi Hoshika's cheeks flushed red, and her steel-like fist slammed into Narusawa Kaede's chest.

Fortunately, Naruzawa Kaede was a bit tougher.

Half-lying on the bed, Ichiji Hoshika exhaled softly and sat up. The water that hadn't reached her lips flowed down her chin and neck and even into her chest.

A cool touch came from her chest, and Ijichi Hoshika's face flushed even more. She reached for some tissues. Narusawa Kaede had already pulled out a few tissues and slipped them inside her clothes to wipe herself.

"So you're trying to take advantage of me?"

Ijichi Hoshika gritted her teeth and lay flat on the bed to facilitate Narusawa Kaede's penetration.

"How could that be?" Mingze Feng explained, after all, this was the first time he had used this method of feeding water, so there were bound to be some mistakes.

"How about we practice a little more?" Mingze Feng suggested.

"I don't want to..."

Although that's what Ichi Seika said.

But as a temporary employee at Fanxing, Mingze Feng felt that he had a responsibility and obligation to help his boss replenish his water levels.

So, while Ichika Hoshika was lying flat on the bed...

Naruzawa Kaede sat on her lap, took a sip of water but didn't swallow it. Instead, he held onto Ijichi Hoshika's shoulders and lowered his head.

"Cough-cough-"

This action ended abruptly with Ijichi Seika choking on water.
