"Ah, so you're doing this for Momoka too..." Izare Nina turned her gaze to Kawaraki Momoka, suddenly realizing. "That's right, as expected of Momoka, you really are a very popular singer, even Mr. Talent is a fan of yours."

Momoka Kawara twitched the corners of her mouth, her face showing bitterness and embarrassment. How come she didn't know she was so popular before?

"Um! Mr. Talent!" Ishigami Rina mustered her courage, "Could you sell me a copy of Ms. Momoka's CD?"

"Sure, but I'm not selling it, I'll just give it to you." Sakurakoji handed her the CD he had just received from Kawara no Momoka.

"How can that be! This was also bought by you, Mr. Caihua!" Jing Qinrencai quickly refused and tried to take the money.

"Just accept it. Consider it a gift from me since we met again. What a coincidence that we've met again so soon."

"Hi, I didn't expect to meet you so soon. Kawasaki is so small." Izare Nina happily agreed. "And I didn't expect you to be a fan of Momoka-san just like me. That's such a pleasant surprise!"

"you do not say!"

"..." Watching the two chatting happily, Momoka Kawara felt a sense of detachment as an idol who couldn't even join in on her fans' conversation, and her eyelids trembled slightly.

Are these two people really his fans? Is it the kind of thing a fan should do to just leave him hanging like this?

"You two know each other?"

"Ah, yes! I missed my stop today and ended up in Tokyo. Thanks to Mr. Caicai for helping me, otherwise I would have missed my stop again, and my phone was also out of battery. It would have been a disaster!" Izare Nina explained the situation to her with great emotion.

"I see... I can't believe there are such coincidences." Momoka Kawahara was also surprised by her experience. She never thought that such a story-like development could actually happen in reality.

"And also, that talent, right? I can't accept so much money from you for no reason, please take it back." She handed back the large denomination banknotes in her hand.

"No, I told you, this is for the CD and to support Ms. Momoka's live performance today. It's fine if you don't give it back to me." Sakurakoji Sai waved his hand in refusal.

"Then what are you going to do next? You gave me all the money in your wallet, right?" Momoka Kawahara frowned. "Besides, I don't think my performance is worth that much."

“It’s alright, just get more when you’re done,” Sakurakoji said casually. “As for the value of the music and performance, that’s a matter of personal opinion, isn’t it? In my opinion, your moving voice is absolutely worth the price.”

"Just hearing your singing tonight makes me feel that this trip to Kawasaki was worthwhile."

"..." Upon hearing his words, the two fell silent.

"Thank you." A rare blush rose on Momoka Kawahara's face; she hadn't expected anyone to give her such high praise.

"...Could it be that Mr. Talent is actually quite wealthy?" Noticing the dozen or so large bills in Momoka Kawahara's hand, Nina Izare displayed an exaggerated jaw-dropping expression. Is this what Tokyo's fangirls are like? Tsukasa Kai...

“From a general perspective, he should be considered wealthy.” Sakurakoji Sai didn’t deny this.

Although it wasn't explicitly stated, the value of the jacket he was currently wearing was dozens of times greater than what he had given to Momoka Kawahara; anyone with eyes could see that. However, expecting the two girls from Kumamoto and Hokkaido opposite him to recognize it at a glance was really asking too much of them.

"Could you be the young master of some family?" Kawara Momoka asked curiously.

"Who knows?" Sakurakoji smiled simply, without responding to the question.

By the way, is this the first time he has flaunted his wealth in front of someone he has just met?

Although it was intentional, following Kawaharaki Momoka's teasing, and things naturally developed this way, it shouldn't cause any problems, right? Sakurakoji thought about the future development and thought, "Hmm, probably nothing will go wrong."

Volume 1: Daily Life of Attracting Bees and Butterflies: Chapter 62: Escaping, Eating, and Staying Overnight at the Kawaharagi House

"Well, it seems we can't continue the performance tonight." Momoka Kawara sighed, speechless at this unexpected turn of events.

Before tonight, she never imagined that something like this would happen, that the final concert would end after only one song.

"That's enough, let's go somewhere else to talk."

Just as they were preparing to move away from the battlefield, an unexpected turn of events occurred.

"I said……"

"Hmm?"

All three looked in that direction at the same time. Was there another expert?

A man and a woman, dressed in a very unconventional style, stood not far from them. The woman, with short white hair and many earrings, licked her pink lipstick lips and spoke first:

"This has always been our territory. Could you please sing somewhere else?"

Huh? Sakurakoji Sai was dumbfounded by the two who were so insistent on taking the role. He was very surprised by their appearance and couldn't understand it at all.

Wait, how come the timeline has changed? How can you two still appear? The "Phoenix Legend" duo!

A fixed NPC, right?

His brain raced, searching through his clear memories for a reason why the two of them would be here, and he actually found some clues.

Because the phrase "as mentioned before" is missing from the original woman's words, it's clear that the two had already come to remind Kawara Momoka, but she hadn't paid attention. This should be the first time they've come to remind her, so their appearance here is perfectly reasonable... what a load of rubbish!

Why do they always appear just when they're about to leave?

While he was lost in thought, Momoka Kawahara spoke up, clearly annoyed. Although she had originally planned to leave, the feeling of being chased away still made her unhappy.

"Huh? Then why don't you write your names here!"

"So you're telling me to go sing somewhere else?" The male of the two stepped forward and said to her in a hoarse voice, clearly annoyed.

"Huh?" Momoka Kawahara's eyes sharpened, her beautiful brows furrowing as she prepared to retaliate.

But glancing at the two people beside him, in order not to involve them, he quickly turned around and packed his things, then said to Sakurakoji Saiki and Iori Nina, "Let's go."

"Uh, okay..." Jingqin Rencai hurriedly put away her wallet and took a few quick steps to catch up with her.

Knowing what was about to happen, Sakurakoji gave the duo a meaningful look, then stepped forward and said to Kawara Momoka, "Let me help you get one. This megaphone isn't light, is it?"

He then took the package containing the megaphone and microphone from her hands, freeing her hands.

"Oh, thank you."

The three of them crossed the zebra crossing. Kawara Momoka turned around and looked at the band members who were also watching them from the other side of the road. Just as Izare Jinna walked over and the traffic light turned from green to red, she suddenly stretched out her hands, raised her middle fingers at them, and stuck out her tongue and shook it up and down rapidly.

"You guy!!"

"Go to hell!!"

From across the street came the excited shouts of two people. Kawara Momoka turned and ran, giving the order: "Give me some oil!"

"Huh?" Jingqin Rencai looked blankly at him, then quickly followed after glancing back and forth a few times.

Why am I running away too?!

"Thinking about it carefully, it's true. You have nothing to do with me. As long as I say you're a stranger, they'll let me off the hook..."

She slowed down and looked back, seeing the two people sprinting after her.

"Stop!"

“…We won’t let them go.” Together with Sakurakoji Sai, who had given up thinking, they each grabbed Iori Jinna with one hand and pulled her into a nearby alley to hide.

“Hey~~~!”

After the pursuers got out of sight, the group continued running until they reached a pedestrian overpass where they stopped.

"Idiot!" Momoka Kawaharaki once again extended her middle finger towards the distant night sky.

"What does that gesture mean?" Jingqin Rencai asked, puzzled, wondering why a simple gesture could elicit such a strong reaction from others.

"Thank you!" Momoka Kawara awkwardly crossed her arms and explained earnestly.

"Then why are they so angry?"

Kawahara Momoka didn't reply, but turned around and asked with a smile, "What are your names?"

"Rencai, Jingqin Rencai." Amidst the torrent of car headlights rushing past below, Jingqin Rencai introduced itself in this way.

Thank you for remembering me. Sakurakoji Sai interrupted the plot and intervened: "Sakurakoji Sai, please take care of me in the future."

"Oh, nice to meet you," Momoka Kawara replied with a smile, then added, "This isn't the place to talk, let's go somewhere else—have you eaten yet?"

"Huh??" Sakurakoji Saiki's expression froze, as if he had made a mistake.

……

A dozen minutes later, the three of them stood in front of the familiar yellow and green restaurant. Sakurakoji Sai swallowed hard.

No, are we eating again?

His face was slightly bitter. It had only been three hours since he had finished dinner, which was a bit early even if it was for a late-night snack. But Jing Qinren said she hadn't eaten, so he had no choice but to follow them into the restaurant again to satisfy her appetite.

"Hey, so that's what happened?" Kawara Momoka exclaimed after listening to Izana's account of her day's events.

"You're really unlucky to have run into an uncle like this."

"But I do really like Kawasaki."

“You can argue with that.” Izayoi sighed, but quickly brightened up: “But it’s also great that I got to meet Momoka-san because of this!”

"I still have the tickets for Diamond Star's performance in my hometown. If possible, please sign them here!"

She took out a rectangular receipt and handed it to Momoka Kawaragi.

"Hey~" Kawara Momoka was a little surprised to receive it.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, here's your large beef rice bowl." The waitress's deep voice came through her mask as she placed the dish in front of Jing Qinrencai.

"This is... beef rice bowl?!" Jing Qinrencai looked at the rice bowl covered with a lot of beef and was shocked.

"What? First time eating this? What planet are you from?" Seeing her surprise, Momoka Kawara teased her.

“Kumamoto desu……”

"Aren't there any beef bowl chain restaurants in that area?"

"Yes! But... my family rules state that we must eat dinner at home."

"Could it be... that you are the young lady?" This time it was Momoka Kawahara's turn to be surprised.

"Not really... Besides, when it comes to family background, Mr. Caihua is clearly more like a young master or young lady from a wealthy family, isn't he?"

Glancing at Sakurakoji Saiki, who was standing to the side in a daze, Kawara Momoka nodded in agreement, "That's true."

"So delicious! What is this? What is this?!" Jing Qinrencai exclaimed loudly after taking a bite of the rice bowl.

"Is it really that delicious?" Momoka Kawahara asked gently, and received an affirmative answer.

"Yes!"

A few minutes later, a large bowl that had been completely emptied appeared in front of Izanagi Serenai, and Kawara Momoka glanced at the time.

"It's come to this point, what are you planning to do? Nina's things haven't been moved into her room yet, have they?"

"What about your talent? Have you prepared a place to stay?"

"Uh, yes, the luggage won't be delivered until tomorrow. Right now, there's just an empty bed board inside," Izanagi groaned, admitting it.

"Absolutely not, because I came to see Momoka's performance right after I finished dinner and my walk! And..." Sakurakoji Sai also shook his head, giving a cute little smile.

"And you gave me all the money, right?" Momoka Kawaharaki was speechless. "I'm telling you, why don't you take this money back? You're making me feel really guilty."

"No, no, no, a man's promise is worth a thousand pieces of gold. This is my family motto. Please don't put me in a difficult position." Sakura Koji made an "X" shape in front of him, resolutely refusing.

Just kidding. If he takes the money back now and goes out to find a hotel to stay in for the night, wouldn't he have worked for nothing?

"I really can't do anything with you... By the way, your family actually has family rules, you really are the young master, right?" Kawara Momoka said helplessly with a hint of suspicion.

"Who knows?" Sakurakoji Saiki replied with his usual smile, brushing it off.

There are family precepts, of course, but whether or not the one he just mentioned exists is unknown.

"Ah! Speaking of family precepts, my family has one too!" Izare Nina looked at Sakurakoji Saiki with the same excitement as if she were looking at a comrade.

"Huh, really? Is my family the only one without family rules? Or are families without family rules just a minority?" Kawara Momoka was somewhat taken aback, feeling a bit isolated.

"I don't think so, because I've never met any classmates with family rules at school before."

"I knew it!" Momoka Kawara breathed a sigh of relief, having retained her status as a normal person.

"There's no other way, come with me." Momoka Kawara stood up and walked towards the door. "The money for three people is on the table."

“Thank you for your patronage!”

As she reached the door, she turned to the two of them and smiled, saying, "Don't let my appearance fool you, I cherish my fans very much."

"Ah, hi!"
