"Alright, Senior, let's talk about school matters when we're at school. You don't want these official matters to ruin our mood, do you?"
Ayanokoji Kiyotaka stopped Miharu Taki Sakura from speaking further, feeling that if she continued, they would part on bad terms.
"...Alright then."
Miharu Taki Sakura noticed Ayanokoji's slightly displeased expression and stopped bringing up those topics, instead finding a new one.
"Ayanokoji, didn't you say there's a light show? When does it start?"
Ayanokoji Kiyotaka glanced at his phone; there were still over ten minutes until the lights turned on.
"It's about to start soon," Ayanokoji Kiyotaka thought for a moment and said, "However, it's not dark yet. If we just watch the light show directly, the effect won't be as good. How about we find an Amusement Park ride to play for a while first?"
As Ayanokoji Kiyotaka spoke, he pointed to an indoor Amusement Park ride.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Miharu Taki Sakura had no objection to this; she was also looking forward to the moment the lights twinkled.
The two participated in a cooperative game for two players. During the game, Ayanokoji Kiyotaka intentionally found topics to chat about. The two had been a bit distant due to their previous conversation, but after playing, they at least superficially restored their relationship.
When they walked out of the indoor area, it was already dark, but this Amusement Park didn't darken; instead, it became even more dazzling under the lights.
The moment they emerged from indoors, all the light decorations had already lit up, and the dazzling lights made it seem as if they had entered a fairy tale world.
Yomiuri Land seemed to be covered in a glass curtain, enveloped by the radiance of jewels.
Diamonds, rubies, amber, topaz, emeralds, sapphires, amethysts... various jewel-colored lights were everywhere—in the air, on trees, on the exterior walls of buildings—in every corner, there were colorful lights, appearing exceptionally luxurious.
The entire park, from the moment dusk began to fall, had no dark spots; it was all adorned with dazzling lights, becoming a dreamlike kingdom.
The lights on the adjacent triangular-shaped metasequoia trees emitted a brilliant glow in three different color combinations, with soft light spiraling upwards, adding embellishment to the scene.
"These lights are amazing..." Miharu Taki Sakura was stunned, murmuring.
This dreamlike setting is very popular with girls, and Miharu Taki Sakura was no exception.
The lights in the Amusement Park greatly attracted her attention. Miharu Taki Sakura looked around excitedly, like a child.
"Senior, do you understand now why I stopped you from riding the Mochiyasha?" Ayanokoji said with a smile, "Riding the Mochiyasha on a night like this would be even more interesting."
"You mean we should go ride the Mochiyasha now?" Miharu Taki Sakura realized the meaning in Ayanokoji's words, her face full of anticipation, and looked up at the large Mochiyasha.
If a roller coaster is the most popular attraction in an Amusement Park, then the Mochiyasha is the symbol of an Amusement Park.
The Mochiyasha in the Amusement Park can be seen from anywhere within the park. Illuminated by golden light symbolizing hope and life, and emerald green light symbolizing the radiance of life, it becomes a very prominent, glowing giant object at night.
Miharu Taki Sakura had long wanted to ride it. Now that Ayanokoji nodded, she eagerly walked towards it, and Ayanokoji followed behind her with a smile.
It seems Miharu Taki Sakura really likes the night view of the Amusement Park; the 'date' spot he chose was indeed excellent.
The night view of Yomiuri Land is clearly much better than during the day, but most children had already been taken home by their parents at this time, so the number of people was half of what it was in the morning. They didn't need to queue and got on the Mochiyasha.
At night, the Amusement Park was divided into different areas by different colored lights.
Riding the Mochiyasha, they could see that every Amusement Park ride they had visited during the day was also surrounded by these colorful lights, presenting a different charm from the daytime and adding a touch of fantasy to the place.
From the Mochiyasha, in addition to enjoying the night view of the Amusement Park, one can also admire the Tokyo tourist attractions [Skytree] and [Tokyo Tower] from high above, making it a rare and spectacular viewpoint.
The Tokyo night view before them merged with the jewel-toned light show, creating an extremely dreamy atmosphere.
Especially in the plaza in front of the LanLan area, decorated with a jewel concept, the hexagonal lights themed as jewel crystals. From above, the entire area transformed into a giant diamond ring, sparkling on the floor. Walking through it felt like being immersed in jewels.
"So beautiful, truly worthy of that Designer Ishii..." Miharu Taki Sakura gazed out the window, her expression dazed.
She was moved by that giant diamond.
If someone were to confess to her here, she would surely be moved to tears...
Unfortunately, the person who brought her here today was not her "fiancé" but Ayanokoji Kiyotaka.
Miharu Taki Sakura secretly glanced at Ayanokoji, finding that he too was staring blankly out the window, seemingly with no intention of making a move.
In fact, Miharu Taki Sakura had a vague feeling that perhaps Ayanokoji Kiyotaka liked her, which was why he cared about her so much and brought her to the Amusement Park to relax.
When she stepped onto the Mochiyasha with Ayanokoji and saw that giant diamond made of lights, her heart inexplicably tightened.
She worried whether Ayanokoji Kiyotaka would take advantage of such an opportune moment to confess to her.
If he confessed, would her refusal make Ayanokoji very awkward? But she had no choice but to refuse, after all, she carried the burden of an "engagement"...
Thankfully, Ayanokoji Kiyotaka made no move, otherwise she really wouldn't know how to face him.
Miharu Taki Sakura let out a sigh of relief and continued to look at the night view.
Confess to Miharu Taki Sakura while the atmosphere is just right? Ayanokoji Kiyotaka had no such intention whatsoever.
Miharu Taki Sakura is a very traditional person, adhering to the wishes of her parents and the words of a matchmaker. She has an engagement, so even if she had some good feelings for him, she would not be willing to accept his "confession."
She isn't without feelings for Mibusakaomi. Unless he truly used those "scum" tactics, threatening her with Mibusakaomi's affairs, she certainly wouldn't be willing to cross the "line."
But Ayanokoji isn't that kind of person. Confessing to her now would be a waste of effort. The reason he brought her to the Amusement Park now was just to get them more familiar and deepen his impression in her heart.
It's not time to make a move yet.
However, Ayanokoji Kiyotaka was also thinking at this moment.
If one were to propose or confess to someone on the Mochiyasha at night, it would be very romantic... Should I bring Meari here?
Even though Miharu Taki Sakura was sitting directly opposite him, Ayanokoji's mind was contemplating whether to find an opportunity to bring Saotome Meari, or some other girl, here.
If he didn't confess to someone, it would simply be a waste of the Designer's painstaking efforts.
