Chapter 86: Please Pay the Bill

  The day Akane Motomiya arrived in China, she was taken out for a big meal by Gaofei Heng, who claimed to be helping her get settled, accompanied by Hanamiya, who had been annoyed for a long time and finally lost his temper.

  Although I had a lot of Chinese food in Tokyo, eating Chinese food in China is another experience.

  The university is very free, with not too many courses. It's been a while since Kō Fūkōji arrived here, and he still can't keep up with the pace of others. However, with the arrival of Shirakawa Akane, he has made time to accompany her. Kō Fūkōji hasn't actually been to too many places because he's busy keeping up with others, but now in order to accompany Shirakawa Akane, he really has gone to a lot of places and found out that China is indeed a country that can't help but be liked.

  Ryoga Hibiki suggested that Akane Tendo buy a DV to record her trip to China, and everyone including Akane herself agreed. However, after buying the DV, it was always being held by Ranma Saotome who helped take many shots of the three, leaving him complaining that he never got to be in front of the camera.

  "Cut, didn't you take enough photos for Ko Yomi-chan earlier?" Hanae Ike gave a resentful Kō Fukuji an disdainful look, after all, it was her, the great photographer, who took them!

  Haname is a familiar name, and Chiriko's nickname sounds very smooth.

  "That's the same..." Gao Fuyuan retorted, this time it was Lin Xiangru who went out with him! How can we not take a photo together?! And besides, this is a DV recording, it's different!"

  Ryoma Echizen looked at Takeshi Momoshiro, who was trying to get into the shot, and turned his gaze to Kaido instead, "Kaido-kun, can I ask for your help in filming for a bit?"

  Koshiro Ryoko glanced at Takafumi Hibino, still with an unchanged smile. However, Takafumi Hibino inexplicably shrank back, feeling a strange, chilly sensation. Was it just his imagination?

  Ryōga's eyes flashed with an unclear meaning, and he turned back to face Kiriya Aoi, saying "As a condition, call me Ryōga..."

  "Huh? Long Ya..."

  Echizen Ryoma was like a cat that had gently scratched his heart, and for some reason, he felt an urge to reach out and touch her face, the feeling in her eyes.

  With a faint smile, Koshiro Ryōga calmed down the inexplicable turmoil in his heart and walked up to Takashi Hōjō, taking the DVD from his hand. Still smiling, he watched as Takashi eagerly ran over to Akane Motomiya's side, her bright and radiant smile, her eyes sparkling, her smile deepening.

  "Let's go, let's go, Xiao Ying, don't mind this lazybones who thinks taking pictures is tiring! " Hua Ming Chi expressed his disdain for the silly and smiling Gao Fuhongzhi, who had run over to them, and pulled Xiao Ying away, leaving Gao Fuhongzhi standing there in a daze!

  Damn it! It's not that I'm tired of him! He just wants to get in the shot, play and take pictures with Yuriko! And yet they say he's a pretty boy! He's just delicate-looking, that's all! When it's time to be masculine, he's absolutely got the presence!

  "Whoa! Xiao Bai Lian~~" Koshiro Ryuzaki was holding a DV and blowing air on it as he passed by, making the petrified Hongo Yui almost turn to dust! Indeed, they're all soulless!"

  Gao Fu Hong rushed up to catch his breath, "What the...?! Isn't that guy's master just a pretty boy?!"

  A strong gust of dark wind blew up, and Gao Fu Heng suddenly stopped in his tracks, looking at the pond that had suddenly turned black with a horrified expression, swallowing hard.

  "My god! You're the one who's a pretty boy! Looking for death!" Hua Mingchi scowled, his hair standing on end. At this moment, coincidentally, there was a small shop selling daily necessities next to him. Hua Mingchi looked at the familiar broom and picked it up without saying another word.

  Gao Fu Hong was so scared by Hua Ming Chi's nickname "Sweeping Broom" that he ran away without even checking if there was any feces on it, and a menacing yet furious shout came from behind him, "Damn it! Don't run!!"

  Not running is stupid!

  Kōfuku no ōji ga namida o nagashite iru no wa, sono Akatsuki no Ryūga ni tsutawaru shita koto da! Kare wa mada nazo no Shujin o mienu mono da! Sore wa Akatsuki no Ryūga ga kare ni tsutaeta no da! Aitsu ni korosareru no da!

  Oh no! Why did he have to provoke the main character?! Hua Mingchi is not someone to be trifled with!

  Watching the two people running away with the wind, Akane Shinomiya stood in place blinking her azure eyes, as if a hint of helplessness floated by.

  "Never mind them, they won't get lost......" Koshiro Ryuuya looked at the backs of those two people and suddenly felt that the two gusts of wind had taken away his heavy heart. He now inexplicably felt lighthearted and turned around to walk with Akane Motomiya, why bother about those two people who were running very happily.

  Akane nodded slightly, and just as she was about to leave with Echizen Ryoma, the owner of a nearby small shop called out to her, "Excuse me, miss, are you friends with that girl from earlier? Can you help pay for that broom?"

  The boss's wife didn't know if the two foreigners, Kashiwagi Nene and Zaizen Naomi, could speak Chinese or not, because they were communicating in Japanese. She could only ask cautiously and hesitantly: "Just now that black-haired girl took her broom without paying, are these two people with that little girl?"

  Lin Mu Xiang: "......"

  Ryōga Kamoe: “……”

  "......I'll pay," said Ryoga Kamata, his mouth twitching slightly, as Akane Tsukino probably didn't have any Chinese yuan, and besides, he was a guy, so it was fine for him to pay.

  Akane Momo rubbed her nose, nodded, and looked at Yuzuru Hanyu who was about to pay the bill. She opened her mouth lightly, "I think I'll exchange some RMB first..." Can't use yen here after all.

  "Good..."

  On the other side, two people ran and chased each other without knowing how many streets they had run. Gao Fu Hongzhi was not very athletic, but he was quite good at running. Hua Mingchi couldn't catch up with him no matter what, so he jumped in anger, "Damn it! Dare to say that the master is a pretty boy again! I'll cut off your balls!"

  The words that came from behind made Gao Fuhong's head ache, he was wrong, and he would never say anything to his master again! Neither good nor bad words would be spoken! He was afraid!

  When the two of them were exhausted from running, neither of them had the energy to escape or settle accounts anymore. Only then did they remember the two people they had abandoned. Gao Fuxi thought of calling Lin Mu Xuan, but why wasn't anyone answering?

  While Ryoma Echizen was in class, he stared at the two words "Honzuki" on the screen, narrowed his eyes and thought to himself... It can't be another wolf by Konomi's side, can it? Honzuki... just hearing the name makes me know it's a person. Why doesn't she call him Ryoma? Next time I'll definitely make her change her ways...

  No one answered the phone, and Gao Fuhe was very depressed. He looked at Huamingchi and said, "You call Longya! Ask them where they are." It seemed that he didn't have Longya's phone number before, tsk, why hadn't he thought of getting it earlier?

  "Why should I call that soulless guy?" Hua Mingchi flicked her black long hair, clicking her tongue, she needed to wash her hair tonight, today's exercise was really a lot. She was sweating profusely.

  Gao Fu Hong's eyebrows furrowed, "Then give me his phone number..."

  Huaming Chi curled her lip, playing with the broom in her hand, looking at Gao Fuhong's shriveled appearance, and disdainfully rolled her eyes. "That guy doesn't even have a cell phone!" He's basically just a guy without a cell phone!

  Gao Fu Rong Zhi: "......"

  Damn it! He really wants to yell! Why didn't he say it earlier! The girls in this world just don't get it if you don't explain it clearly! It's not right to play with people like that!

  But the guy who didn't have a phone took advantage of her going to the restroom and went next door to buy a new phone. When she came out, he had already made the purchase and handed it to her with a hint of a smile on his lips, "Leave me your contact info..."

  This was the first time he wanted to leave someone's contact information, before that he just thought he was drifting around everywhere, didn't need anyone else's entanglement, unrestricted, even if it was Minamoto no Tsunemori, he wouldn't know how to get in touch with him, but this time, he didn't know why he wanted her contact information, and didn't want to only be able to reach her through Kōshi Hyōji.

  ...He suddenly became a bit strange, but he didn't mind.

  She looked at the phone handed over to her, didn't say anything, and inputted her new number. Her fingers suddenly stopped, she seemed to have not told Gao Fuyuan her new number yet. After helping him finish inputting, she sent a text message to Gao Fuyuan with her own phone.

  She had already bought the album and frame, so as not to receive Hoshiumi's resentful gaze again. However, she had previously been dragged by Koshiro Ryōma to take photos too, so there were two frames. One for a photo of Hoshiumi, and one for a joint photo with Koshiro Ryōma.

  Xu Mu was a bit puzzled, why did it seem like her desk would become a photo frame in the future? Did everyone in this space like to put out other people's photos? She herself had put them out because she always displayed the people she cared about, but being asked by others to do so was strange.

  On the other side, Gao Fu Heng saw a strange text message. Although most people would delete it upon seeing such messages, he still wanted to confirm whether it was spam before deleting it, so as not to miss out on anything. As it turned out, his habit was correct - he saw Lin Mu Yan's name!

  So it's a new number? Hmm, but I just got through and no one answered, what's going on?

  Forget it, I won't bother with this anymore, as long as I have her phone number that's all that matters!

  One side of the flower pool took his mobile phone and input that number into his own mobile phone, then threw it back to Gao Fuhongzhi. He made a call back to Linmu Xiangfu, asking where she was, and only after getting the specific location did he take the somewhat sulky Gao Fuhongzhi away.

  Huaming Chi put the broom on his shoulder, looking very pleased with himself, but suddenly remembered a problem, "Hey! Huaming, you took someone's broom without paying for it!" That's stealing!

  The back of Huamingchi stiffened, and he let out a soft "hmm", his expression seeming to say... indeed.

  It's really true!

  "Haha... " Hua Mingchi sneered, but suddenly remembered that this guy was the mastermind behind it all. Otherwise, would she have dared to not pay and snatch things from others?

  "Damn it! It's all your fault!" Hua Mingchi fiercely kicked Gao Fuyuanzhi and ran back to the original boss, while Gao Fuyuanzhi shouted behind her, "Hey! Tell me where Xiangfu is first!" Was he going to make him call again?

  In fact, Huamingchi just replied like that, "Call and ask yourself! Stupid!" The girl doesn't have the obligation to tell you! Little white face!

  Gao Fu Hongzhi: "......" What was that Chinese Confucius saying? Only petty people and women are difficult to raise. That guy is absolutely retaliating against him hehehe!

  He didn't tell her that there was Yan Fu there, he must have already helped her pay, letting her run an errand herself, and she had taught him to be slow on the uptake too. Although now he's already several beats behind.

  Kao Fu Hongzhi made a helpless phone call to ask where Akane Motomiya was, and after a pause on the other end, she told him the address.

  It's strange that Hakuto Mokuren put down his phone. Weren't he and Haname Kusuri supposed to be together? She had clearly told Haname, so hadn't they gotten separated? No, if they had gotten separated, how could Haname possibly have her phone number.

  After much difficulty, I finally found the original boss's flower name Chi, but was told that it had already been paid for. With a slightly stiff face, I waved goodbye to the boss and hurriedly went to Lin Mu Xiang's side.

  It's really unbelievable that she didn't think of this possibility. Which boss wouldn't find friends to help pay the bill, and just watch as their unpaid goods are taken away? Even if it's just a small supermarket owner, she's still a businessperson!

  Hanaming Pond and Takafumi Katsuragi were already exhausted from chasing each other, and when the two of them arrived at Akane Matsu's place one after another, they ended up in an ice cream shop. They plopped themselves down to take a break. Takafumi didn't like eating ice cream, but Hanaming was dying for something cold - she was burning up!

  "Thanks for paying for me just now, little Akane-chan!" Haname said with a mouthful of ice cream, blinking at Kiriya Akane.

  Qingmu Xiangfeng smiled faintly and shook her head, "It wasn't me who paid, it was Long Ya who paid..."

  "Huh?!" Haname Chi looked at Koshiro Ryuuya as if she had seen a ghost, but he was also someone who didn't like to eat ice cream, leaning back in his chair with a smile on the corner of his lips, making her feel that for the first time, he wasn't so rough and untamed, but gentle!

  My god!

  Huamingchi thought to himself, what's so great about watching DVDs? Aren't they just people? Or did he capture something good on camera?

  Hanami-ike is about to go up, and Ryōga looks very absorbed in it, without even noticing her. When she approaches, all she sees is a figure. Every shot of the scene has Kusakabe Yuka! It's like they're only filming Kusakabe Yuka! There's no scenery at all, just one person's shadow moving around... What's so great about it?... Okay, although little Yuka-chan is a beauty and has her good points, can't he be a bit less absorbed in the scene?

  A delicate white hand passed in front of Ryōga's eyes, blocking that captivating smile. Ryōga subconsciously furrowed his brow and looked at the owner of the hand. Seeing Haname's scornful expression, he slightly twitched the corner of his mouth. One finger aimed at her forehead and poked it, moving her head away. "Nothing, just go cool off somewhere!"

  "Isn't this place cool everywhere?" Hua Mingchi's disdainful expression grew thicker. Is it because there is air conditioning?!

  "...Echizen Ryoma silently put away the DVD, ignoring her and turned to Kawamura Akane, "While there's still time, want to go somewhere else?"

  Just after finishing her own ice cream, Kishinuma Akane looked up and agreed.

  Koshi Ryo didn't say another word and paid the bill, then pulled Kakinomoto Hitomi out of there.

  Gao Fu Hongzhi and Hua Mingchi also wanted to follow, but were stopped by the waiter, "Please pay the bill for the two guests first..."

  "......!!!!!" Haname Chi took a deep breath, damn it! It must be that Ryoma Echizen didn't pay them the money! For such a small thing, he actually... stingy! Fine, just consider it as paying him back for the broom she borrowed from him! She doesn't owe him anything! ...But that guy is really despicable!

  Whatever, she paid for her own ice cream... That guy is still so cheap! She doesn't owe him anything!

  Gao Fu Hong was also speechless, and seeing Hua Ming Chi only paying for himself and leaving made him even more speechless, his mouth twitching slightly. But did she have the right to complain? She was just paying for herself too! And that scoundrel Yue Qian Long Ya would still help Lin Mu Xiang pay!

  "Alright, he's a guy, so it doesn't matter, right? Although he only had one drink."

  Gao Fu Heng treated the flowing noodles and paid for them, then chased after him.

  These people played around, and even though the DV was not let go of by Yalun Ya, Gao Fucheng was happy to take turns taking pictures. The several people played until it got dark before going back. Gao Fucheng didn't want to go back to school either, anyway he had asked for leave, so he stayed in the small house at Huamingchi, anyway there were plenty of rooms.

  Takafumi Kōji came out after taking a bath and saw that the door to his neighbor, Ryōga Echizen's room was open. He saw the DVD lying on top of it. There were sounds of water coming from inside the room, so he should be taking a bath. Takafumi Kōji originally wanted to go find Akane Motomiya to chat with her, but instead turned his footsteps to take a look at the DVDs they played all day.

  ……

  Gao Fuhe said: "......"

  He silently put down the DV, turned his head and shed noodle-like tears. Why, why, why except for the one he took at first, all the others were just dynamic DVs of Xiang Yun?! Did Ryoma Echizen throw him and Hana no Nami to the ends of the earth?! That guy is really heartless!
