Didn’t you say you were just using me as a substitute?

If being nice enough to women makes them want you forever, then every bootlicker can get what he wants.

In fact, brothers who have been bootlickers know that your goddess will not fall in love with you just because you give enough.

What makes Kasumigaoka Utaha and Sawamura Spencer Eriri unable to let go is that they haven't found anyone better than Watanabe Takashi.

At least not yet.

It is true that Kitahara Takashi is very outstanding, but he is too rational. He will constantly weigh the pros and cons and think about the gains and losses at every stage of the relationship.

Maybe one day, he will suddenly break up with you and leave without hesitation.

When it comes to dating with Takashi Kitahara, Utaha Kasumigaoka and Eriri Sawamura are her precedents.

Moreover, Kato Megumi didn't know whether Kitahara Takashi would abandon her if he met a better and more beautiful girl who could take him further while she was in love with him.

This is why Kato Megumi will never fall in love with Kitahara Takashi.

"I understand."

Kitahara Takashi nodded with a smile.

"It looks like the rain is about to stop."

The heavy rain came quickly and went away quickly.

The heavy rain has turned into drizzle without us noticing.

If you don't move the umbrella away, you won't notice it at all.

I guess it might stop raining in a few minutes.

Kato Megumi held out her umbrella and said with some regret, "It's a pity that the fireworks display has been cancelled. It would be great if the rain could stop sooner."

Kitahara Takashi felt that it was too rainy to hold an umbrella, so he folded it up and asked, "Do you want to watch the fireworks?"

"think."

Kato Megumi nodded slightly.

"Let's go set off the fireworks."

Just do it if you think of it.

“Those who only think but don’t act are destined to accomplish nothing.”

——This is what Kitahara Takashi’s father told him.

Many people are only one step away from success.

"Now? Fireworks?"

Even Kato Megumi, who is usually calm, was unable to remain calm at this moment because of Kitahara Takashi.

Beiyuan Zun tilted his head slightly and looked at her: "Yes, what's wrong?"

"But you will be arrested if you set off fireworks without permission in the city."

Kato Megumi kindly reminded.

Whether setting off fireworks is illegal in the island nation depends on the circumstances.

In some specific occasions and activities, such as fireworks festivals, setting off fireworks is allowed, but it is illegal to set off fireworks at non-designated times and places.

"I'll take care of that. All I'm asking you now is: Do you want to see the fireworks?"

Under the quiet street lights, the raindrops were like swarms of silver insects dancing in the mist.

Looking at the drizzle under the dim street lights, standing in the rainy night, the boy's eyes are burning, like two leaping and burning sparks.

Kato Megumi pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly, following her heart: "...I do."

"Let's go then."

Without giving Kato Megumi a chance to regret, Kitahara Takashi grabbed her hand and turned to run towards Makuhari Seaside Park.

Kato Megumi was being led and had to run after him.

The calves extending from under the yukata are long and beautiful, and their pure white color is dazzling.

The muddy water splashed by the wooden clogs when they stepped into the puddle danced on the calves.

Bathed in the drizzle, among the rising and falling water droplets, the boy and girl ran hand in hand, as if they were on a grand escape.

The scene of two people running on the road is very similar to the ending of a movie story.

It attracted many passers-by to stop and watch.

The streets are crowded with traffic during the evening rush hour.

On streets where traffic control has been implemented, it is very difficult to drive a car, which is far slower than walking.

"Can it fit in? Just stuff it in?"

Spencer Sawamura lowered his window and shouted as he tried to squeeze in.

Sayuri Sawamura advised: "Okay, husband, safety comes first, don't get into a conflict with others."

Sayuri Sawamura had already moved the passenger seat to the back seat.

She pulled Eriri into her arms and patted her shoulders gently.

With her mother's comfort, Eriri's mood gradually calmed down.

But her eyes seemed to be broken, without any luster in them, like an empty shell.

When Spencer Sawamura saw his daughter like this through the rearview mirror, he felt uncomfortable. He had to bring the bastard Kitahara Tsutomu over for a samurai duel.

"Okay, Eriri, don't be sad. It's just a man, right? With our family background, we can have any man we want."

Li's father comforted him.

Eriri said in a hoarse voice: "I only want Watanabe Takashi, I don't want anyone else."

She cried for so long that her voice became hoarse.

Her voice was now raspy and saw-like.

"You like Watanabe Takashi's type, right? Okay, Daddy will find one for you."

"I don't want Watanabe Takashi's type, I only want Watanabe Takashi!"

Eriri raised her head, her eyes red.

The little pearls began to slide down her cheeks again, falling to the ground with a plop.

But she still said clearly: "Respecting him is unique."

In Eriri's heart, no one can compare to Watanabe-sama.

Because Watanabe Takashi chose to leave when Eriri loved him the most.

In Eriri's heart, Watanabe Takashi is perfect, no one can compare to him. Even if Aki Tomoya comes, it won't help.

The highest point of romanticism is that if this love is destined to decline or become dull, let it die at the highest point.

"What's so good about him?" "Shut up."

Li's father was halfway through his words when Sayuri Sawamura interrupted him with a scolding.

Mr. Li still didn't understand why his wife suddenly scolded him. He turned around and was about to say something when he suddenly found that Ying Lili was looking at him steadily. He immediately understood everything.

I can only say that Kitahara Tsuyoshi is pretending to be too good. In Eriri's heart, even her old father's status is not as high as his.

If he continued talking, Eriri would probably start arguing with him.

This is also the reason why Sayuri Sawamura scolded him.

"You damned little thief Kitahara, if you show up in front of us next time, I will definitely..."

Spencer Sawamura turned his head depressedly and saw a boy and a girl running hand in hand out of the car window.

"Sh*T"

He punched the steering wheel in anger.

Drop drop-!

The car honked sharply.

"What's wrong with you?"

Sayuri Sawamura glared at her husband angrily.

Can’t you see that I’m coaxing my daughter?

"look!"

Spencer Sawamura gritted his teeth and pointed in a certain direction.

Sayuri Sawamura followed the line of sight.

When she saw clearly the reason why Li's father was angry, Sayuri Sawamura's face turned cold.

My daughter is still sad, and you turned around and held another girl's hand.

You're seamless and quick.

"very nice."

Eriri also glanced sideways.

She recognized Kato Megumi, but did not recognize Kitahara Takashi.

Just watching the two of them running hand in hand, a hint of envy flashed in her dead blue eyes.

If she and Watanabe Tsuyoshi hadn't broken up today, maybe they would have been able to do the same.

"Fireworks now? Are you kidding me?"

When the organizer of the Makuhari Seaside Park Fireworks Festival heard Kitahara Takashi's request to launch fireworks, he shook his head and refused without hesitation.

It’s not that we can’t set off fireworks. Now that the rain has stopped, we can set off fireworks.

It’s okay to set off fireworks, but almost all the tourists have left, so who are they launching them for?

"Kitahara-kun, why don't we just forget about it?"

Kato Megumi pulled Kitahara Takashi's sleeve and advised in a low voice.

She didn't have high expectations.

Kitahara Takashi ignored Kato Megumi. He didn't give up and continued to ask: "Uncle, which company are you from?"

Whoever is able to secure the rights to host a fireworks display must have a big boss behind the scenes.

Kitahara Tsuyoshi wanted to see if it was someone he knew, or if he knew a friend who knew him.

He's not bragging, he knows a lot of people and has a wide network of contacts.

"Kashiwagi family! Did you know?"

Da Wangxiang lit a cigarette for himself and looked at Beiyuan Zun with amusement.

"The Kashiwagi family that built the ship?"

Isn't this a coincidence?

"if not?"

Da Wangxiang asked back.

"Hold on."

Kitahara Takashi walked a distance away and called Kashiwagi Nagisa.

No one knew what he said, but the next moment, Da Wangxiang received a call from his immediate superior, asking him to launch the fireworks.

Da Wangxiang didn't know what Kitahara Tsutomu said, but there was a hint of respect in his eyes as he looked at him.

Soon, the host's excited voice came over the radio: "Sorry to have kept you waiting! Now, please enjoy the last bit of summer's excitement. 80 rapid-fire No. 5 fireworks, bursts. Begin!"

Suddenly, the rocket rose up instantly, and a huge waterfall of fireworks exploded in the night sky like a curtain.

The crowd returned home disappointed because they didn't see any fireworks and were stunned for a moment as they watched the dazzling fireworks exploding in the sky.
