He did indeed follow the directions given by Miura Yumiko.
Why did we arrive at our destination?
But ahead was a conspicuously prominent love hotel?!
Chapter 287 The Falcon and the Quail Girl
"Yumiko?"
Is that hotel your home?
Left with no other choice, Luo Chen asked this question, which even he himself found utterly absurd.
Miura Yumiko's face turned pale and then purple, and she turned her head fiercely to glare at Luo Chen: "What are you thinking? How could this be!"
Luo Chen said speechlessly, "I followed your directions step by step, so..."
“If you walk a little further ahead, my house is right next to the hotel,” Miura Yumiko interrupted Luo Chen.
"is it?"
Luo Chen drove forward a little further.
Finally, we saw a courtyard that wasn't particularly bright, but at first glance, it definitely didn't look like the home of a poor family.
The Miura family!
"You must be disappointed, right? The home of the famous top ten beauties from the most prestigious university in Japan, the Fire Queen, is such a simple and humble little courtyard."
"Moreover, she wasn't actually a pure student at Xiuzhi Academy. Like most of the other students in Class F, she was just lucky enough to get in because of the relaxed policy and the nearby expansion of enrollment."
"I'm sitting in the passenger seat," Miura Yumiko said with a low, self-deprecating tone, her eyes filled with self-mockery, her delicate and pretty face mirroring the sentiment.
Luo Chen turned his head with amusement, just opening his mouth.
"Shut up!!"
Yumiko Miura suddenly gave a soft rebuke, quickly opened the car door, and walked out.
Click!
The car door was slammed shut.
Within Luo Chen's sight, Miura Yumiko hurriedly ran to her front door, opened it, and then slammed the gate shut behind her.
Luo Chen was dumbfounded.
Why did this girl suddenly get so angry? He didn't seem to have said anything too offensive that would hurt Miura Yumiko's self-esteem.
Even his eyes and expression didn't reveal the slightest hint of it.
After all, he wasn't impressed with the so-called aristocratic students at Xiuzhi Academy; he felt that these aristocratic students were no different from other students.
I was completely confused.
The gate to the Miura family's courtyard miraculously opened again.
With her head down, Miura Yumiko walked back to the front of the car step by step.
Luo Chen rolled down the car window and asked with amusement, "Hey~! Yumiko, what are you doing? Can't you be normal for once? Did my friend do something wrong and offend you? Then please accept my completely unfounded apology immediately."
Without looking up, Miura Yumiko stood in front of the car and said in an unusually low voice, "So, if I invited you in for a cup of tea, would you accept without hesitation?"
Fortunately, although the sound was soft, Luo Chen heard it!
Otherwise, if she were to ask, "What did you say? I didn't hear you," given Miura Yumiko's current state, she would definitely cover her face, unable to bear the humiliation, and leave in a huff.
Admittedly, even if he had asked that question, Luo Chen assured that he genuinely did not hear it, and it was not for any purpose of humiliation.
"Okay."
Luo Chen pushed open the car door and got out of the car. "Youyuko, I think you should change back. I think the Youyuko in school is quite cute. The way she looks now is really too weird."
“Strange?” Miura Yumiko looked up.
Because Luo Chen actually got out of the car, and didn't show the disgust she had been imagining, her eyes regained some brightness.
"how to say?"
As Luo Chen entered the house before Miura Yumiko, acting as if he were an outsider, he estimated and said, "It's almost like a fierce falcon suddenly turning into a timid little quail."
Miura Yumiko's expression suddenly turned grim. She raised her head, her eyes revealing a hint of murderous intent.
To her, neither the fierce falcon nor the cowardly quail sounded like good adjectives.
This bastard!
"Oh, that's how it is, it tastes just like before."
Luo Chen's eyes lit up with surprise. He reached out and ruffled Miura Yumiko's hair, showing his great appreciation for her condition.
"Baka! Baka!"
Yumiko Miura's pretty face flushed red instantly. She hurriedly slapped Luo Chen's hand away, turned around, and ran to the living room to open the door.
"Come in, the environment is terrible, please make do."
That being said, it is clear that Yumiko Miura takes great care of her home; she even takes off her shoes before entering the living room.
Luo Chen followed behind, also taking off his shoes before entering the house.
A very simple living room.
The floor is brown, and in the center is a square table surrounded by tatami mats.
Directly opposite is a standing tea cabinet, a television set, and a long row of storage cabinets.
Yumiko Miura was squatting in front of a small storage cabinet, fiddling with tea leaves and hot water.
After I finished, I brought it over.
"This is very cheap tea. Young Master Luo Chen may not be used to it. But I'm sorry, we don't have any better tea at home."
Yumiko Miura brought over the brewed tea, knelt directly in front of Luo Chen, and said expressionlessly.
Luo Chen felt helpless.
To be honest, Miura Yumiko's family background was not really that bad.
In the entire Adachi district, it even belongs to the upper-middle class.
Of course, if she were to compare herself to the aristocratic students at Xiuzhi Academy, then there would definitely be no way to compare them.
Luo Chen picked up his tea and took a small sip. He pondered repeatedly but couldn't come up with a good way to comfort Miura Yumiko, who was suddenly making all sorts of self-deprecating jokes.
Moreover, he didn't understand how Yumiko Miura had become like this.
The former Yumiko Miura was incredibly confident, known as the Queen of Fire, and had countless admirers.
Yumiko Miura also picked up her tea and took a small sip.
Boom!Boom!
In the living room, the sound of two teacups being put down echoed.
Luo Chen felt that the saying "the worst thing is when the air suddenly goes quiet" was true, so he made conversation: "By the way, Yumiko, do you live alone? Where's your brother? Where are your parents?"
“My parents are working away from home. Nissan is currently attending a large amateur shogi seminar in Kyoto, so I’ll be home alone the other day,” Miura Yumiko said.
"That's it."
Seeing that Miura Yumiko had lowered her head again, Luo Chen sighed inwardly, thinking that it was indeed better not to beat around the bush.
Keep it simple, be straightforward, hold it down and just ask!
So he turned around and sat right next to Yumiko Miura, sitting very close to her.
"What...are you doing?" Yumiko Miura was taken aback, caught off guard.
Luo Chen grabbed Miura Yumiko's arm first, ignoring her struggles, and frowned, saying, "Yumiko, tell me the truth, what's wrong with you today?"
Chapter 288 A Go Up
They were facing each other, quite close to each other.
Yumiko Miura's heart skipped a beat, but after realizing something, her brows furrowed immediately, and her facial expressions became much less expressive.
What could possibly be wrong with me?
You're overthinking it.
Yumiko Miura turned her face away and said calmly.
My emotions were incredibly complex.
If it were before, I would have been overjoyed to receive such care from Luo Chen.
But things are different now.
Even if she was happy for a moment because of Luo Chen's concern, what about tomorrow? The day after tomorrow? And the future?
"You definitely have a lot of problems."
Luo Chen cupped Miura Yumiko's cheeks in his hands, forcing her to look at him. As she flinched, he sighed softly, "No matter what, we're at least good friends, right? Didn't we say before that if we're good friends, we shouldn't have any big secrets between us?"
