Tokyo's Most Affectionate - Chapter 32

Yuki-chan’s Swimsuit Photos

Friday, the day that was not only easygoing but also filled with great anticipation.

For both teachers and students, the approaching weekend was a welcomed relief.

As the afternoon arrived, signaling the end of classes, everyone felt liberated and light-hearted.

However, within the confines of the University of Tokyo, there was one person who didn’t share this sentiment.

In the faculty office of the University of Tokyo, Ninomiya Chizuru sat at a desk piled high with various books, files, and a laptop.

She worked diligently, occasionally glancing at her phone.

She was looking at something, naturally some kind of software.

Waiting was a very agonizing thing, and Ninomiya waited for a whole day without any signs of activity, feeling somewhat frustrated.

She disliked unplanned arrangements and actions. It was precisely because of this that the sooner plans and actions were set, the better.

Under the table, Ninomiya’s beautiful feet, clad in black stockings, swayed with high heels, left and right, mirroring her uneasy mood.

“This Kurosawa, after saying it, was supposed to send me a message on Line. Why hasn’t there been any activity?”

After another glance with no signs of activity, Ninomiya furrowed her brow, silently pondering.

This afternoon, he had no classes, and theoretically, he should have some free time. However, there was still no action.

In reality, what bothered her even more was that, after impulsively agreeing, she belatedly realized a problem.

Even if she considered herself upright and just agreed to accompany Kurosawa to the amusement park only to not waste his ticket and to supervise him, it was not a date at all.

But if the amusement park was too close to the school and other students saw her with Kurosawa on the weekend, it would be difficult to explain if rumors spread.

On the other hand, if the park was too far from the school, it might be even more challenging to explain if they are unexpectedly seen.

“I shouldn’t have agreed to this… If he wants to date, let him date. After all, his academic performance hasn’t suffered so far.”

Thinking about this dilemma of being caught between a rock and a hard place, Ninomiya couldn’t help but hold her head, feeling a headache coming on.

As for refusing or not going to the arrangement, that was simply not an option.

If she agreed to something but didn’t follow through, her credibility as a teacher would be completely undermined.

……

On Friday, Kurosawa had no classes in the afternoon and left school early.

Although he didn’t have a part-time job today, he still had some things to take care of.

For example, preparing for the weekend date by researching and choosing an amusement park and buying tickets online.

In this matter, he also took quite a long time.

Firstly, because he had never been to an amusement park, and secondly, because he had to consider which one to choose.

After sorting out this matter, he went to the mall to think about his outfit for the date and bought some new clothes.

The main purpose of the date mission was to give the girl the perfect date experience, and as one of the main characters in the date, Kurosawa naturally couldn’t afford to neglect it.

Around three in the afternoon, Kurosawa, with many bags hanging on his shoulder and a phone in one hand, walked into a swimsuit store.

“There’s also this matter…”

Talking with Ichinose over the phone, Kurosawa learned about what happened this morning and was somewhat surprised.

Honestly, he knew that the reward for entry-level singing skills was quite strong, allowing him to shine on stage at karaoke, but he never thought it could attract a professional talent agent.

“Hikaru-kun, do you want to meet her? Miss Itsuragi is willing to pay 50,000 just to have a detailed conversation with you.”

Ichinose confirmed the matter and asked timidly.

Although she didn’t upload the video, it was her best friend who did it, and that made her feel a sense of indirect responsibility.

“Forget it, you know I have no intention of becoming a singer.” After thinking for a moment, Kurosawa declined.

His current major focus was on his studies, followed by the system’s dating mission.

Being a singer would be too time-consuming, and if he became famous, it would bring a lot of trouble.

Even if the paparazzi from Neon weren’t as exaggerated as in his past life, they were still quite troublesome. 

“What should I tell her then?”

“Decline it. And about that 50,000, if you have a chance, return it to her. Don’t let her incur sunk costs; she’s not willing to give up easily.”

“Alright.” Ichinose wasn’t very concerned about the 50,000 yuan.

“Let’s end the conversation here; I have other things to attend to.”

“M-hm.” Ichinose was very obedient and didn’t dare to linger.

After hanging up the phone, Kurosawa started walking around the store.

“Sir, may I ask what you would like to buy?”

As he finished his call, the salesperson who had been waiting on the side approached.

“A swimsuit, and fetch me a few bottles of sunscreen,” Kurosawa said immediately upon seeing her approach.

“What style of swimsuit are you looking for, and for what purpose?”

“A swimsuit for a beach date with a girl,” Kurosawa, not having much knowledge about swimsuit styles, thought for a moment and replied.

Unlike buying clothes that require attention to coordination, this matter was quickly resolved.

…..

Kurosawa went to a laundromat and washed all his new clothes. After having dinner, he returned home around 8 p.m.

“Finally prepared.”

After putting down his things, Kurosawa sat directly on the cushion on the floor, taking a deep breath.

After resting for a while, he took out his phone, opened Line, found Ninomiya’s account, and began composing a message.

“Wu~” 

Just then, the sound of a message alert came from his phone. It was a message from Ichinose.

Kurosawa stopped what he was doing and opened the message.

As soon as the page opened, he was greeted by five photos.

These photos were all of Ichinose in the changing room, wearing a bikini, taking selfies from an upward angle.

Her figure was quite alluring, dressed in a cute and pink swimsuit, the revealing bikini making her look very eye-catching.

“This…” 

Kurosawa, upon seeing this, couldn’t focus on the swimsuit at all, feeling somewhat astonished and his heart beating faster.

During the karaoke party date, Ichinose was already showcasing her figure with an off-the-shoulder outfit, revealing that she had an appealing body.

But now, with the swimsuit resembling lingerie, it accentuated her sexy figure even more, with prominent curves.

What was most crucial was that, unlike in his past life when he looked at explicit images on the internet through a screen, this was a girl he knew, sending him private selfies.

This feeling was entirely different—stimulating and evoking various fantasies.

Just then, Ichinose sent another message.

“Hikaru-kun, which set do you think looks better?”

“People who look good look good in anything.” Kurosawa, enjoying the feast for his eyes, replied without hesitation.

Faced with this response, Ichinose wasn’t quite satisfied and said, “No, you choose a set. I don’t know what style you like.” 

“The fourth set.” Kurosawa thought for a moment and made a choice.

“Does Hikaru-kun like more conservative swimsuits?”

“I’ve seen enough of the revealing ones; I don’t want other guys to see.”

As these words were sent, before Kuroswa could receive a reply, a line of text appeared before him.

Mission progress updated. Ichinose Yuki, infatuation count: 1/3.

“This girl is too easily infatuated, isn’t she?” Seeing this, Kurosawa couldn’t help but think.

Before long, Ichinose finally replied.

“o(*////▽////*)q”

“Are you still in the swimsuit store?” Seeing her cute emoticon, Kurosawa suddenly thought of something.

“Yes, I’m in the changing room.”

“How about you pick a few more sets to see how they look?”

Ichinose took quite a while to reply, seeming to hesitate for a long time but finally making up her mind.

“Okay.”
