"This one is pretty good."
Looking at Shinohiru, who was wearing a light green dress and exuding youthful vitality, Hoshino Sora stroked his chin and commented, his face full of satisfaction.
"I'll go in and change into another one."
Seeing Hoshino Sora's approving expression, Shinohiru's lips unconsciously curved upwards. She excitedly ran into the fitting room again. She had chosen more than one outfit.
"This one is also good, super cute!"
Ten minutes later, looking at Shinohiru confidently posing in front of him, radiating endless girlish charm, Hoshino Sora couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praise her.
As he spoke, Hoshino Sora pressed the shutter of his phone, permanently recording this scene in his electronic device.
"Indeed, Miyu is still suited for this pure type of dressing. At your age, you should dress a bit purely, after all, you are a young high school girl."
Nodding, Hoshino Sora said with satisfaction as he looked at the photos on his phone. Shinohiru's style leaned towards cuteness, so purity was her ultimate weapon compared to sexiness and charm.
However, hidden beneath her purity, the bulging chest truly caught his eye. Before unveiling the mystery, Hoshino Sora would never have thought that Shinohiru was a hidden gem.
Thinking of the grandeur in his sight last night, Hoshino Sora's smile deepened. As he spoke, he reached out and touched Shinohiru's cheek. Her skin was like white jade, and the feel was exquisite!
"Why do I feel like you're thinking about perverted things?"
Seeing some abnormality in Hoshino Sora's eyes, Shinohiru couldn't help but pout and complain, with a hint of helplessness and expectation in her eyes.
Although she liked Hoshino Sora very much, he was truly a pervert. At night, he used various methods to constantly challenge her bottom line of shame.
"What, don't you like me like this?"
Habitually wrapping his arm around Shinohiru's soft waist, Hoshino Sora lowered his head and whispered into her ear, immediately making her blush and lower her head.
"I like it, there's no reason to dislike it..."
Her voice was almost squeezed from deep within her throat. It was clear that saying this sentence had exhausted all of Shinohiru's strength.
However, despite being extremely shy, she articulated her words very clearly when saying this, apparently very serious.
"Kiss me~"
Hearing Shinohiru's answer, Hoshino Sora immediately smiled, then, like a child, sought a kiss.
"We're still in the mall, there are so many people around. Let's talk about it when we go out."
Although the two were in a less crowded clothing store, in the changing area, kissing in public like this was too shameful.
To be honest, as a girl who was a bit conservative at heart, Shinohiru couldn't really accept it, especially when people occasionally walked by from behind, giving her a strange feeling of impropriety.
"I can't wait. Let's go in here."
Pulling open the curtain of the fitting room, Hoshino Sora pushed Shinohiru inside, then pulled it shut...
It wasn't until ten minutes later that the two came out. Shinohiru's face was flushed and her breathing was a little rapid, while Hoshino Sora's face was as usual, with a mischievous smile.
Seeing this, Shinohiru immediately pounded his chest with her small fists. However, with that soft strength and affected posture, it was more like acting cute than scolding.
"Let's go, I'll take you to eat something delicious."
Not at all annoyed by being punched in the chest, Hoshino Sora laughed and put his arm around Shinohiru's shoulder, then walked side by side with her under the envious gazes of the people in the mall.
The envy here was not only for Hoshino Sora but also for Shinohiru, because Hoshino Sora was truly handsome, and there were many fans. Many people on the scene even took out their phones to secretly photograph this golden couple.
"Holy cow, I just saw a super compatible couple! I'll send you the photo, you'll know when you see it."
Similar messages spread rapidly on people's LINE accounts, and it was estimated that it wouldn't be long before they appeared on trending topics. Hoshino Sora was already used to this, while Shinohiru was a little unaccustomed to it.
In the past, although she would also be secretly looked at, people would never look at her so brazenly. Those fervent gazes almost made her skin burn.
Her toes slightly gripped the ground, and a faint strange feeling arose from the depths of her heart. This feeling of being watched, some people could accept it calmly and even greet everyone, while others just felt embarrassed.
Undoubtedly, Shinohiru belonged to the second type of person.
At this time, she tightly held Hoshino Sora's arm, her face full of the words 'Hurry up and go'.
To this, Hoshino Sora just looked at her dotingly, then left the mall with Shinohiru.
And then the two went to many places: high-end restaurants, cat cafes, parks, as well as arcades, billiards halls, all the way to the foot of Far Moon Mountain.
During this time, Hoshino Sora discovered that Shinohiru hadn't been out for a long time and was very curious about everything in the outside world, making him give her a good deal of popular science education.
"I still have some things to deal with here. Tonight, take a picture of the cooking theme provided by the competition management and send it to me, and also tell me who your opponent is."
Patting Shinohiru's butt, Hoshino Sora stepped back while waving his hand, telling her to go back and text him. To this, Shinohiru couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, but still nodded.
She didn't know why, but after they started dating, she felt that Hoshino Sora was like a child, often doing immature things.
This was completely different from the previous Hoshino Sora. He used to be gentle and serene, with the demeanor of a handsome young master, exuding a mature aura.
But he was still as perverted as ever, spit!
On the way up the mountain, Shinohiru's mind was filled with various things Hoshino Sora had done to her. Her face visibly brightened with joy, and even her steps became much lighter!
At the fork in the road between Yōbi Dormitory and Polar Star Dormitory, Shinohiru didn't choose to go back to Yōbi Dormitory, but instead rushed towards Polar Star Dormitory. She urgently wanted to share her good news with Tadokoro Megumi.
She, too, would be Hoshino Sora's favored concubine from now on~
She was truly on the same boat as Tadokoro Megumi in every sense!
——————
"Wait, stop knocking, who is it?"
A hurried running sound came from inside the house, with a hint of impatience in the voice. Kitagawa Marin came out to open the door with one foot still wearing stockings and the other bare, looking a bit tired.
"Manager?!"
Seeing who was at the door, Kitagawa Marin's impatience instantly turned into surprise. Then she leaped up and very naturally hugged Hoshino Sora's neck, hanging on him like a little koala.
"Yes, I'm here."
Very naturally supporting Kitagawa Marin's body, the soft touch made Hoshino Sora's expression pleasant. Then he carried her into the house like that.
"Why did you come? I heard you've been busy with a competition, aren't you supposed to be very busy?"
Before leaving last time, Kitagawa Marin and Alice Nakiri exchanged LINE contacts and would harass each other from time to time to inquire about Hoshino Sora's information.
At first, Alice Nakiri didn't really want to respond, but because Kitagawa kept pestering her, not replying meant she wouldn't stop sending messages. Helplessly, Alice Nakiri could only be forced to respond.
In the beginning, because they were rivals, she was unwilling to tell Kitagawa much useful information, but as their chats increased, Alice revealed more and more information, and they chatted more and more, from all over the world, from casual talk to ideals, and finally, they ended up becoming good sisters.
For example, when they went out for special training some time ago, and the competition after they returned, Kitagawa had a certain degree of understanding due to Alice's intentional disclosure.
It was precisely because she knew Hoshino Sora was busy with the competition that she thoughtfully didn't disturb him too much, only chatting with him for about ten minutes each night, telling him what happened that day.
Even with just that, she was already very satisfied.
"What, you don't welcome me? Then I'm leaving~"
Hearing Kitagawa Marin's words, Hoshino Sora feigned displeasure, then prepared to put her down and leave.
"Warmly welcome, I missed you so much! I'm just a little curious why you suddenly came over." Kitagawa said anxiously, tightly hugging Hoshino Sora's neck to prevent herself from being put down.
"Isn't it because a certain little silly girl said she wanted to see me? Here, I brought you some snacks. Is there anything you want to eat tonight? I can make anything for you. Haven't you always been talking about wanting to eat my cooking?"
He thought of two nights ago when Kitagawa Marin suddenly sent him a message saying she missed him so much, but then retracted it a few seconds later, changing it to asking what he was doing recently.
And because he had his phone with him, he happened to see that message, which was one of the reasons he specifically came today.
After all, they were all his wives, he couldn't possibly favor one over the other, being intimate with wives who were close by, and just playing 'idle game' with those further away, right?
Because his next opponent wasn't strong, Hoshino Sora didn't take it too seriously. He planned to make good use of these three 'holiday' days to take Hayama and Yuigahama to experience Tokyo's cuisine.
And coincidentally, tomorrow was the weekend!
"Fried rice~"
Hearing Hoshino Sora's words, Kitagawa Marin said in a cutesy, drawn-out voice that she would never use at school.
Then, feeling that he was about to put her down, she added: "Just hold me like this and go directly to the bathroom. Compared to cooking, I want to taste you first."
As she spoke, Kitagawa directly kissed him, and the black stockings she was holding fell to the ground. Seeing this, Hoshino Sora was not polite and generously gave her a lesson.
The content of the direct lesson, being too difficult to understand, is not suitable for broadcast here.
"Delicious! As expected, your cooking is the best, Manager! Even I, a woman who has been frying rice for several years and has a unique understanding of fried rice, am far inferior to you!"
In the early hours of the morning, Kitagawa Marin enjoyed Hoshino Sora's hair-drying service while savoring the delicious Golden Fried Rice, exclaiming praises from time to time, radiating an astonishing aura.
This was the Gourmet Cell advancing, and it was also one of Hoshino Sora's purposes for being here: to enable his wives to protect themselves.
Although there aren't many dangers in this world, as the number of people he offends increases, it's not out of the question that someone might target those close to him, something Hoshino Sora is very unwilling to see.
"You can always trust your husband's cooking, and if I couldn't even beat a little girl like you, why would I go to a culinary school? I'd just learn from you."
Feeling the slight trembling of the delicate body in his arms, Hoshino Sora said teasingly. The advancement of the Gourmet Cell is from the inside out; it's a process of body modification that grants unparalleled pleasure.
Therefore, strictly speaking, a large part of the enjoyment on Kitagawa Marin's face came from the Gourmet Cell.
"Hmph, you're right, but if I were to teach you, we wouldn't have to be so far apart. That way, I could enjoy Manager's warm embrace every day."
Hayama rubbed her head against Hoshino Sora's chest, her golden hair like a waterfall flowing down his chest. Looking at the handsome and charming face before him, Hoshino Sora lowered his head and kissed her again.
"Mm, what are you doing? I haven't even swallowed my food yet."
Hayama pouted, moving her body in dissatisfaction, but her expression showed no anger, only happiness.
Her beauty being able to attract Hoshino Sora was something she was very proud of.
"Where do you want to go tomorrow? There are still a few days until the competition, so I can help you relax until then."
Looking at the golden-haired kitten in front of him with gentle eyes, and seeing the blissful expression on her face as she ate, Hoshino Sora felt incredibly happy, a gentle warmth filling his heart.
This was the kind of life Hoshino Sora yearned for.
Ideally, he could live with his wives in a large villa, working during the day and having fun at night, occasionally taking a short vacation to travel and see the world.
Such a life, though uninteresting and lacking excitement, was very pleasant, a peaceful daily routine he greatly desired.
Just like now, holding Kitagawa Marin in his arms, he could clearly feel her warmth. That was enough; no scheming, no conflicts of interest.
No need to deal with others, allowing him to focus on culinary research.
"Let's sleep."
"Mm."
Nodding, Kitagawa Marin wiped her mouth after finishing the fried rice, then lay on Hoshino Sora's chest. His heartbeat was clear, echoing in her ears.
To be precise, it should be bone conduction after their bodies were pressed together, which is why the sound was so clear.
Seeing this, Hoshino Sora bent down, picked her up, carried her to the bed, and holding her, fell asleep.
Although some desires remained unvented, Kitagawa had clearly reached her limit, and Hoshino Sora was not an animal; he still knew how to cherish his wife.
The next day, Hoshino Sora and Kitagawa Marin spent another day shopping and eating. In the afternoon, they switched, and he called Yuigahama out for another date, which then became a three-person date on the second day.
Because Kitagawa and Yuigahama had a good relationship, the three-person date went smoother than expected. With Hoshino Sora paying, they visited various famous restaurants in Tokyo, sampling dishes they normally couldn't eat.
However, not a single one truly satisfied Hoshino Sora.
