Chapter 96.1

Tempura Donburi And A New Stage

In a cramped kitchen, Ezuki was busily preparing a meal. Watching his back as she had finished cutting vegetables, Machi gazed absentmindedly.

Ezuki Nakihito was a mysterious person to Machi, even to this day. To understand a person, one could often glean much by looking at their living space. However, despite searching Ezuki's familiar room with that in mind, it was as barren as it could be.Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

There was nothing on the walls, just a simple wall clock, a steel computer desk, and a television. Additionally, there were some small storage cases and a low glass table. Apart from these, there was really nothing else.

Nevertheless, based on Ezuki's words and actions up to this point, Machi could barely discern that he likely had a passion for motorcycles and physical training.

As evidence, within the storage cases placed the room's corner, Ezuki stored what seemed to be motorcycle parts, all carefully wrapped and stored as if they were precious.

"I'll try frying a little, so please wait, Serai-san."

Ezuki said without turning around, and Machi immediately heard the sizzling sound of oil.

His personality seemed extremely mild, far from what one would imagine given his robust appearance. Regardless of his imposing exterior, Ezuki always maintained a humble posture towards younger people like Machi and never assumed a condescending attitude.

Moreover, he never sought anything in return. That was the key difference Machi had observed compared to the boys she was familiar with. The boys she knew treated her kindly as well. But their kindness was always accompanied by an underlying motive and hidden agenda. Underneath their kindness, they were always calculating and seeking closer relationships.

Of course, Machi was aware of her own physical beauty, and she had understood from a young age that [beautiful people have an advantage]. She knew how to use iher advantage and manipulate those around her. However, she hadn't realized until recently that [excessive beauty can also be a poison].

Diving into dangerous dungeons, Machi tried to get the men she sought cooperation from more motivated. She sometimes relied on these men and even struck seductive poses.

"Sounds good! Seki-san, you try frying next!"

After receiving instructions from Ezuki, Machi stood in the kitchen. Ezuki called the aluminum foil-covered dome "Gullwing" for some reason, which was a bit mysterious, but other than that, there was no problem.

"Hehe, frying is easy! (Sizzle sizzle sizzle)"

"(Sizzle sizzle sizzle)"

The thoroughly drained tempura prawns were placed in the hot oil and produced a pleasant melody. The delicious aroma of the prawns floated up with the heat. Yes, they looked very delicious.

"When the overall color turns red, you can take them out in about a minute. Keep the Gullwing closed, and be careful not to burn yourself."

"Yes, leave it to me, Master!"

(I don't intend to take Ezuki-san away from Ruu.)

Besides, I've already earned a bad reputation for supposedly tempting a friend's boyfriend.

I never want to act in a way that would confirm that. But if Ruu and Ezuki-san were to become closer than they are now, I'm sure I'd lose my comfortable place.

(So, for now, let me enjoy this time, Ruu)
