Chapter 518: Taste
Kishimoto Masayoshi took a sip of beer and a bite of ramen, making him feel something else. No matter what kind of food, if you eat it too many times, it will become average. Average food, less sometimes eaten or eaten for the first time, will feel delicious.
Sakai Mirei suddenly appeared and sat directly to Masayoshi Kishimoto’s right. She still had the World’s Greatest Brand on her from head to toe.
“I was passing by and unintentionally glanced towards this. At first, I thought I was looking at the wrong person. After I stopped down for a closer look, it was really you.” Sakai Meiling turned sideways towards him and said with a smiling face with her left hand resting on her cheek.
“You’re a girl, how come you’re sitting in the middle of two men?” Masayoshi Kishimoto knew that it was quite taboo for Japanese girls to go to a ramen store alone.
They did so in order to eliminate themselves from sitting sandwiched between two men. According to Japanese customs and traditions, this was not good for a girl’s perception.
Sakai Meiling’s smile grew wider as she said, “Brother Justice, why is your head so stubborn? What era is this? However, I’m especially happy that you’re able to care about me.”
Justice Kishimoto didn’t reply and just buried his head in his food. It wasn’t like he wasn’t aware that he was being pestered by the other party, and it was bound to be nothing good.
“Seeing as how you’re eating so well, I’m suddenly craving it too.” Sakai Meiling looked at the clerk with a sideways glance, her left index finger was pointing to his bowl and said, “I’ll have the same Tonkotsu Ramen as him. Oh yeah, and a beer too.”
The clerk not only answered in the affirmative, but also couldn’t help but look at her twice. The number of Japanese girls who came into the store to eat ramen was already low.
It was even rarer to have a cute-looking girl come in. To be precise, it was an existence that tended to zero.
Sakai Meiling turned back and once again put her eyes on Kishimoto Masayoshi’s body and said: ”In fact, as a girl, I don’t want too much. It’s not like I’m asking too much from a man.”
“You really don’t want much, and you really don’t have any excessive requirements. All that is required is for a man to be rich.” Justice Kishimoto blurted out without holding back a single word.
“It’s still you who knows me best.” Sakai Meiling said without a hint of unhappiness at all.
“It’s been so many years, I’m definitely one of the people who know you.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said without haste.
“Brother Justice, can you give my sister a good talking to and give me some more living expenses. The little she gives is just too little, it’s completely insufficient.”
Sakai Meiling stretched out her hands to pull on one of his arms, and without any qualms, she started to pout in public, saying.
“Just be satisfied! Even my monthly allowance is given to me by your sister. Do you know how much my monthly allowance is? Thirty thousand yen.” Masayoshi Kishimoto held out three fingers on his left hand and said.
“Che, who are you kidding?” Sakai Mirei wouldn’t believe him at all. She believed that the other party was able to spend as much as he wanted, and would not be constrained by any of them at all.
“Japanese men generally have that much pocket money a month. Your rent, your sister is paying for you. School fees, utilities, etc., are also being paid for you.
The money you have, after deducting three meals a day, is not 100,000 yen, but several tens of thousands of yen! It’s enough to cover your expenses.
If you buy your own food and cook, you can save even more. In this way, you’re even richer than I am.” Kishimoto Masayoshi laughed as he said that.
“What, you’ve also learned to start bullying me?” Sakai Meiling pouted like a little girl who had been wronged.
“This time, I’m definitely on your sister’s side. If you mess up again, no one will really step forward to clean up your mess.” Masayoshi Kishimoto put away his smile and said in a serious manner.
Sakai Meiling let go of her hands, her face full of unhappiness. She really felt that the money on hand was not enough to spend said, “And saving money? I can barely afford to even eat. If I starve to death, remember to come and collect my corpse.”
“If you really get to the point where you can’t afford to eat, then you can come inside our house to rub your nose in it.” Masayoshi Kishimoto knew that she was used to spending money lavishly.
It was a drastic change all of a sudden, completely inferior to the good old days when she had tens of millions of yen in cash on hand. She wanted to buy this and that.
With only expenses and no income, it’s no wonder she can afford to spend money. If she spends it all, she’ll still have to eat. Pushing her too hard, there was no lack of worry that she would get confused and borrow from loan sharks.
“Don’t.” Sakai Meiling huffed.
“Then that’s all I can help you with.” Masayoshi Kishimoto calmly said.
At the same time, the people inside the store all directed their two-eyed gaze towards Sakai Meiling in convergence. On the one hand, they were envious and jealous of Masayoshi Kishimoto being able to talk to the goddess, on the other hand, they were restless inside, thinking of striking up a conversation, and then they were directly scared off by the line of clothing she was wearing.
With a high fashion outfit like Sakai Meiling’s, no normal man would take the initiative to go up to her and hit on her. All they could do was to stay inside this one store for a longer period of time to satiate their eyes.
Even if the food is good, don’t leave. In order to cover up this kind of small mind and small attempt of the individual, so they ordered a little bit more to eat.
On top of that, they all knew in their hearts that such a cute girl was definitely not theirs, and there was no chance of a romantic encounter or anything like that.
The clerk brought up the Tonkotsu Ramen and beer that Sakai Misuzu had ordered one by one. He took the opportunity to take a closer look at her again, she was really too cute.
Sakai Misuzu picked up the beer and tilted her head back and took a big gulp. She drank half of it in one gulp. She put down the beer glass and picked up a pair of chopsticks that were placed horizontally on the ramen bowl with her right hand.
Sakai Mirei separated the disposable chopsticks with a little bit of forceful division between her right and left hands. She was about to start eating with the pair of chopsticks in her right hand.
“Aren’t you afraid of gaining weight?” Justice Kishimoto asked in a cloudy voice.
“Even if I gain weight, it’s still my own business. Don’t want you to care.” Sakai Meiling gambled.
“It’s not like I’m minding you, I’m just asking.” Masayoshi Kishimoto replied nonchalantly.
“If you really care about me, then raise my allowance.” Without hesitation, Sakai Meiling extended her left palm towards him and said.
“Raising my allowance is something impossible, so you should stop harboring this one unrealistic fantasy. If you really don’t have enough money to spend, you can consider using your spare time to go out and work to earn money.
With your good looks going to a part-time job at a maid caf茅, for example, is definitely popular.” Masayoshi Kishimoto really wasn’t completely joking.
