Chapter 299
299 – New Semester
Tweet! Tweet!
Early morning.
I slowly opened my eyes to the sound of sparrows in my ear.
“…”
It’s an unfamiliar ceiling.
That’s because this isn’t our house, but a Western-style mansion that the chairman uses when he lives in Tokyo.
“Uhm…”
I raised my upper body at an angle and glanced at the face of the chairman who was lying naked next to me.
Perhaps because I suffered a lot the night before, long, sweat-soaked hair was sticking to various parts of my body.
After carefully removing the hair from my cheek, I got out of bed by myself.
Crack! Crack!
Let’s do a light stretch and feel the sound of bones all over the body.
Afterwards, I approached the slightly open window to ventilate the room filled with the smell of chestnut flowers.
Shake!
When I open the window wide enough to cover my upper body, what comes into view is a garden filled with the scent of spring and the bright blue sky of the city stretching behind it.
“The weather is nice today.”
I somehow had a feeling that it would be a good day.
***
On the day of the chairman’s graduation ceremony, I accepted the chairman’s marriage proposal, and from then on, I started sleeping at the chairman’s house once a week.
Since the president had to go down to Kyoto and go to school alone when the new semester started, it started with the idea that we should live together at least for the weekend.
Since my parents, who had already fallen in love with the president’s charm, agreed, it soon became natural for me to sleep in this mansion.
Knock!
“Yes, please come in.”
Sweet!
“Did you cough, Mr. Kim Yu-seong?”
The person who carefully opened the door and came in was Minami, the president’s exclusive secretary.
She entered the room with the maids working in the mansion, pushing a hanger full of clothes.
“You woke up earlier than usual.”
“Uh, yes. Minami, you said you could speak informally to me?”
To be honest, it’s awkward.
To suddenly hear a respectful treatment from someone you were just talking to not long ago.
But Minami’s attitude toward her was firm.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t think that’s possible. Mr. Kim Yu-seong is our lady’s fiancé, so it would be absurd for me, a mere employee, to say anything in a place other than a private setting. So, please withdraw my order.”＜ Br＞
The maids repeat in unison following Minami.
“”Please take it away.””
“Yes, yes.”
In the end, it was always me who gave in first.
Perhaps because I am a commoner by nature, I cannot get used to the life of the upper class.
“Ugh… “
At that time, the chairman, who had been sleeping soundly probably because he was so noisy, woke up and rubbed his eyes.
“Meteor… ?”
It’s always cute how he just woke up and looks for me like he’s goofing off.
“Yes, Kumiko.”
As I approached him and called his name, the chairman smiled brightly and slightly leaned his upper body against my body
“Is it morning already?”
“Yes. I think you should get up soon. It’s a new semester starting today.”
“… What time is it now?”
I glanced at the wall clock.
“It’s 7 o’clock in the morning?”
“Wow, it’s a big deal!”
As soon as he hears the time, the chairman jumps out of my arms in shock.
As a result, his naked body he was clearly exposed, and the chairman hurriedly covered his upper body with a blanket and asked me, puffing out his cheeks.
“Why didn’t you wake me up earlier? I told you I couldn’t be late because today is the first day of school.”
“I saw you sleeping soundly and I felt sorry for waking you up.”
“Yuseong Island Cha-am… “
As I said that and gently stroked his cheek, the chairman, who had shown his usual stoic demeanor, looked like he had never done that before.
At that time, Minami, who was quietly listening to our conversation, cleared her throat and said.
“Keuhum! It’s good that you two are showing affection, but if you don’t get ready now, you’ll be late for school.”
“”Ah.””
Only then did the Chairman and I escape from our own world and began to hastily change our clothes.

April 2nd.
After a short spring break of about a month, it is time for pink cherry blossoms, symbolizing the new semester, to bloom in full bloom.
Unlike the president, who took a private limousine and headed toward Tokyo Station to catch the Shinkansen, I took the subway to school as usual.
I feel this way every time I ride the subway in Tokyo, but it is also crowded with people.
I managed to squeeze myself into the train just before the door closed and moved to the window seat, receiving glares from the people around me.
What is waiting there
“Ryu-chan!”
“Yuseong! It’s been a while!”
“Hello, Yoosung.”
This is Rika, my other girlfriend, and Ryuji, the main character of this cartoon world.
“Good morning. Kim Yu-seong.”
And next to it, there was also a brown-skinned Egyptian ghost floating in the air and waving its hands.
“I was indebted to you last time.”
While saying that, he lowered his head, but since it was a bit awkward to react in front of others who couldn’t see the ghost, I replaced it with a moderate nod of the head.
Ryuji and I went to Egypt during spring break with his parents, who are archaeologists.
It was to find the tomb of Mahes, a pharaoh not recorded in history, and what was waiting there were descendants of those who worshiped Set, the god of war, commonly known as the ‘Clan of Darkness’.
The tomb of Mahes was finally found again after a breathtaking battle with them in the Valley of the Kings.
There we learned Mahes’ real name
“Hello, Yoosung oppa.”
“Ah, Yuika. You were there too.”
As I said that and went to shake Yuika’s hand, I realized that something had changed in her appearance.
“That school uniform…”
“Hey hey! I’m also a high school student at Ichijou Academy starting today!”
Yuika said and gently lifted her skirt with both hands.
It may be because the original version is so excellent, but the high school sailor uniform also matches quite well.
“Now shall I call you sunbae instead of oppa?”
“Do whatever you want.”
Anyway, oppa or senior are both unfamiliar titles.
“Then I’ll just call you oppa.”
It was the moment when the conversation was over and she turned her head.
“Hey-“
Rika, who was sitting in the seat right in front of her, was looking at me with her narrowed eyes.
“As expected, you like children even if they’re just one year old, right? Ryu-chan?”
“What?”
“Otherwise, there’s no way she would show off her friendship with another girl when her girlfriend is right in front of her, right?”
“…”
I was suddenly cornered and hurriedly looked to Ryuji for help.
But Ryuji broke out in a cold sweat and desperately avoided my gaze.
You! This guy! I helped you like that in Egypt!
When I looked at Ryuji with the look of a traitor, Yaguchi who was next to him stepped forward instead.
“Honestly, isn’t this Kim’s fault, even though he has a girlfriend?”
“That’s right, that’s right.”
Rika cleverly agrees with that.
“Ugh!”
The moment I realized that I was no longer on my side and was about to declare surrender-
“Oppa, have you been looking at me like that this whole time?”
Yuika, who had been quiet, suddenly closed to my arm and said that with her innocent face.
Munch!
When I, embarrassed by the sudden physical contact with her, tried to pull her arms away with her, Yuika put more pressure on both of her hands as if she would not let go.
And then, as if declaring to everyone, he said something.
“I don’t mind though. If it’s Yoosung oppa.”
Ah, it’s ruined.
***
“Hmph!”
After getting off the subway, while walking to school, whenever Rika made eye contact with me, she would make that noise and turn her head.
Anyone can see that he is very upset.
Yuika, the main culprit of this whole situation, was walking down the school road with a sad expression, and Ryuji, who heard her younger sister’s shocking remarks from her, was walking like a zombie with a distraught expression.
From noble mtl dot come
Next to him, she said, “Yuika is all grown up now, so it’s natural for her to like someone.” Even Yaguchi fans the burning house.
It was a total mess.
“You are a man as sinful as Ryuji.”
“It’s noisy.”
After saying that and shooing away Mahes, who was teasing me with a sly expression, I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw the school gate that was just a stone’s throw away.
‘Have we finally arrived?’
I feel like my commute to school was twice as long as usual.
“Welcome! Guys!”
Mr. Matsuda greets us with a lively face, perhaps because it is not just the students who have recharged their energy during spring break.
I said my usual “Hello.” After saying that, I was about to pass the teacher, but suddenly I noticed the heart-shaped necklace hanging around Mr. Matsuda’s neck.
“Teacher, that can’t be a couple’s neck… “
“Ah! I see you recognize me! Actually, my teacher got a girlfriend during spring break!”
Perhaps because she was already itching to brag, the story of how she first met her girlfriend flowed out of her mouth without even asking.
“Good luck.”
Of course, I didn’t intend to listen to the end, so I just ignored it and crossed the school gate, and before I knew it, I was shaking my head when I saw Ms. Matsuda bragging about her girlfriend while holding on to the other kids.
Spring has come to Mr. Matsuda, who thought he would live his whole life as an old bachelor. It is something he will live to see for a long time.
So now Satoru is the only one left as a soloist…
