Tokyo: Becoming the Perfect Male God Starting with a Rented Boyfriend.

"Miss Qingchi, do you live here alone?"

"Hmm? Of course not. This property was purchased jointly by the three of us as a place to rest."

In other words, the other two idols could arrive at any time.

"So, Miss Qingchi, your two companions..."

"The two of them went out, and it's uncertain when they'll be back."

At this point, Aochi Akane paused, her eyes quickly sharpening.

"Are you interested in them, sir? Well, they are all quite beautiful girls. If you'd like, I can let you meet them."

"...No, I don't want to."

Miyazawa Itsuki sensed a murderous aura.

"I'm just a fan of Akane Aoike," he emphasized, finally managing to appease Miss Aoike.

"I just feel that since Miss Qingchi's companions may return at any time, it's not appropriate for me to stay here any longer. It's time to say goodbye."

Aochi Akane remained silent for a moment, seemingly recalling the scene of her companions catching her bringing a boy back to the villa, and her face quickly turned guilty.

“So…” Miyazawa Itsuki prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute," Qingchi Qian quickly called out to him.

"Before you leave, I... have one last favor to ask of you."

……

Inside the kitchen of the villa.

Miyazawa Itsuki stared at the chaotic kitchen, deeply shocked.

How did they manage to create such battlefield-like chaos?

It's just making food, not making gunpowder.

"I... have always wanted to replicate the desserts from that guy, but I've never succeeded."

Aochi Akane turned her face away, somewhat embarrassed.

"So, I want to see for myself how the guy actually does it."

"I see."

Miyazawa Itsuki checked the time.

There was still an hour and a half to go before the agreed time with Naomi.

"What kind of dessert would Miss Qingchi like?"

Caramel pudding.

"This feels like the kind of answer Ms. Aoike would give."

Since it's caramel pudding...

The main processes aren't particularly time-consuming. The bulk of the time is spent on the final condensation stage.

If it's just about completing the preceding teaching demonstrations, the time is still manageable.

"Then I'll demonstrate for Miss Qing."

Miyazawa looked at the materials.

He selected and prepared the ingredients for making crème brûlée and placed them on the table.

"So first, let's talk about the preparation of the pudding mixture..."

In the kitchen, the boy's patient voice could be heard.

"...Then add the heavy cream, being careful not to boil it."

He and the girl were locked in a deep gaze.

"...Finally, it is time to unmold and refrigerate. If you don't have special equipment, you can put it in the refrigerator for about four hours."

Even after it ended, it was never moved.

……

Due to time constraints, Miyazawa Itsuki was unable to eat the final product.

But considering that it was made using my own professional skills, it certainly won't be bad.

Since it was made for three people, Ms. Aoike could share it with her companions. She could simply say she made it herself.

Anyway, she should have learned it by now, judging from her serious attitude.

Miyazawa Itsuki embarked on his return journey, leaving the mansion and then passing through the gate of the villa complex.

As I turned the corner, I brushed past a luxury car.

Inside the car, a girl named Akanishi Yuuka was fast asleep, leaning on another person's shoulder.

Beside her, a girl with unparalleled beauty suddenly opened her eyes, her heart seemingly clenching for a moment.

"A-Shu...?"

Chapter 37 Unexpected Turn of Events

Inside a large karaoke room in Shibuya.

It was a noisy scene, with young men and women singing their hearts out.

A small number of students were still wearing Sakura Ridge's uniform and hadn't had time to change out after school.

This is a follow-up to Sato He's birthday party.

After the banquet, classmates who were close to Sato He came here together.

The five-colored rotating light ball refracted fragments of light, sweeping across the girl's face again and again.

Asahina Omi, dressed appropriately, sat quietly in a corner of the sofa.

Her usually radiant face now appeared somewhat lonely.

Miyazawa Itsuki did not come.

He was not seen when the birthday party started.

Naomi comforted herself, saying that perhaps Miyazawa-kun would arrive a little later.

But even after only scraps remained on the table and some classmates had said goodbye and left, there was still no news of him.

It's like they vanished into thin air.

Sato He looked at Asahina with a meaningful gaze, while Nakano Chinatsu also watched her with a worried expression.

Where did Asahi's so-called boyfriend go?

—Does it really exist?

—Maybe I've been scammed.

Among the crowd, there were many eyes cast at her with malice and mockery.

Naomi knew, but pretended not to.

She didn't want Miyazawa Itsuki to think of her as a troublesome, aggressive girlfriend.

So in the early stages of the banquet, I refrained from sending him messages to inquire about the situation.

But it wasn't until the banquet was over, and even halfway through the karaoke session, that things started to change.

Unable to suppress her unease any longer, Naomi cautiously probed:

[nao_nao: Miyazawa-kun, is something wrong?]

[nao_nao: I saved some cake for you, I wonder if Miyazawa-kun likes kiwi flavor]

[nao_nao: I really didn't mean to rush Miyazawa-kun, but if I can't attend due to unforeseen circumstances, I will tell them.]

[nao_nao: It's okay if you don't want to come, can you reply to me? Just one sentence is fine.]

The message remains unread.

A shadow fell over Naomi Asahina's beautiful face.

Why are you ignoring me, Miyazawa-kun?

Did I do something wrong?

How could this happen...? This scene... again...

Naomi's eyes gradually dimmed.

"Nana, are you alright?"

Chinatsu Nakano put down the microphone and sat back down next to Naomi Asahina.

His tone betrayed his unconcealed worry.

"Chika-chan, I'm fine."

Naomi Asahina forced a smile, trying to appear cheerful.

But that smile was already shattered. She had completely lost her acting skills.

Nakano Chinatsu stopped talking.

She wanted to say, "Is it because of your boyfriend?", but seeing her friend's depressed state, she ultimately didn't bring up that word.

"It's okay, Nana. If you're feeling down, go sing. It'll help you vent." Chinatsu Nakano placed the microphone in Naomi's palm.

"You have to be happy. Naomi is everyone's little sun. If the sun is dim, everyone will be listless."

Naomi Asahina forced a smile and nodded.

I stood up and walked towards the karaoke machine.

All eyes turned to her.

As the most beautiful girl in the room, Naomi Asahina was always the focus of attention.

Previously, because of the rumors that Asahi Meika was already taken, no one dared to approach her.

But that rumor...

Sato He's eyes flickered.

Naomi Asahina has chosen the song she wants to sing.

It's a song by the currently most popular girl idol group, STAR COLOS. Naomi is a huge fan of theirs.

The title is "Childhood Sweethearts".

This is the signature song of the group's lead singer, the super cute idol who debuted under the stage name [Shiri Hoshimiya].

"Nana's requesting a song, does anyone know how to sing it?" Chinatsu Nakano waved her hand.

Actually, she was just being polite; the song was incredibly popular.

Everyone at the event had heard it before; the melody is simple and pleasant to listen to, and it's not difficult to cover.

So Chinatsu Nakano originally planned to sing with Naomi by herself.

But then, someone raised their hand.

"I know a little bit, how about I give it a try?"

Chinatsu Nakano's expression froze.

It's Sato He, today's birthday celebrant and host of the gathering.

If he were to express his opinion, no one present would have a reason to refuse.

"Hehe, then let's have Ahe..."

Chinatsu Nakano's eyelashes trembled. After hesitating for a few seconds, she finally handed over the microphone.

"Thank you, Chinatsu-chan."

Sato He accepted it with a smile. He looked at Asahina Naomi.
