The proprietress of the Ryori-tei, just like the proprietress of a Ginza bar, keeps chatting and drinking with the guests.
"Alright, please enjoy." The proprietress elegantly retreated a few steps, then turned and left the private room.
During dinner, Kiyono Lin asked Dubian Che what he did on his trip.
Since there was plenty of time, Dubian Che described everything in more detail, even mentioning how the air in Hokkaido felt better than in Tokyo.
As he spoke, he suddenly realized something.
This kind of "checking in," does it mean it will continue for a lifetime? And with four people—no, maybe Mayi Asuka wouldn't care where he goes or what he does.
Thinking of this, Dubian Che looked at Kiyono Lin, who was chatting with Jiutiao Meijie about the differences between Kantou and Capital City cuisine.
To match the pastoral style of the private room, the food served was also rustic, with main dishes like grilled mackerel, fried tofu, and potatoes stewed with butterbur.
