CHAPTER 69: 63. YOU CAN’T GRADUATE IN A CEMETERY!_2

"..."

Kasahara Asuka tilted her forehead to one side, showing a puzzled expression.

After a few seconds, she reacted, tugging on Fujiwara Reya’s sleeve: "Is Senpai really angry?"

"Really." Fujiwara Reya gave a firm answer.

"Uh... hard to understand," Kasahara Asuka lowered her head slightly embarrassed, her slender eyelashes drooping along with it, "Senpai didn’t get angry when Asuka got him into trouble, but he got angry because of the way Asuka commented on Miss Hasegawa. Senpai... is a strange person."

"There’s still time to leave." Fujiwara Reya continued walking downstairs.

"But it’s interesting~~" Kasahara Asuka held onto his sleeve without letting go, smiling adorably while admitting her mistake, "Asuka knows she was wrong, Senpai please forgive me okay~~ smile, don’t keep a straight face!"

Walking at the back, Inspector Suzuki suddenly let out a burp.

From his perspective, these two really looked like a couple, and not just any couple but like a young mistress with money and looks bringing a dowry along. For a moment, Inspector Suzuki felt a sourness in his mouth, like he had eaten several lemons.

At noon, the two returned to Kagurazaka.

They entered Shankoku Temple, bypassed the front yard and courtyard, and arrived at the cemetery area at the back.

The cemetery was built on a high terrace, quite spacious, with fine sand paving the crisscrossing paths between graves, making it soft to walk on, and neatly trimmed azaleas and forget-me-nots were interspersed throughout.

"Fujiwara, over here!" Ikeda Aoshu, dressed in monk attire, waved in front of a grave.

"Thanks, Mr. Ikeda." Fujiwara Reya walked over and took a photo from a cardboard box, handing it to him.

"I’ll go work on the tombstone now." Ikeda Aoshu gave him a mischievous smile, then glanced at Kasahara Asuka beside him, "Would Kasahara like to rest in the meditation room? I’ll have someone prepare tea for you."

"Nope!" Kasahara Asuka shrugged indifferently, "Unless Senpai goes too."

"Darn it!" Ikeda Aoshu looked at the couple before him, "We agreed to be single together, and here you are secretly slipping away, Fujiwara, it really makes me..."

Kasahara Asuka smiled kindly: "Hmm?"

"It really makes me happy for him..." Ikeda Aoshu forced a smile.

"Let’s go, let’s go," Kasahara Asuka waved her little hand like shooing away a mosquito, "Don’t disturb me here, or I’ll have Koike dump you today."

Ikeda Aoshu looked to Fujiwara Reya for help.

"..."

Fujiwara Reya didn’t know what to say.

"Fujiwara," Ikeda Aoshu took a step forward, staring at him sincerely, "Remember what you promised me, I can’t live without Koike..."

"I’ll do my best..." Fujiwara Reya sighed.

Kasahara Asuka’s eyes lit up.

Instantly, a mischievous and sensual smile appeared on her crystal-like lips.

Fujiwara Reya instinctively felt something was off, but before he could run away, his junior grabbed his collar with one hand and pressed the back of his head with the other, lowering his head.

She used force, her little hand trembling slightly.

Fujiwara Reya looked down, unable to shift his gaze, landing on her pursed sweet lips.

Faced with her mischievous smile, the Mountain God could only open his mouth and take a deep breath.

"Ikeda, why are you still standing there?" Kasahara Asuka scolded with a sense of superiority.

The little monk obediently shrank and left.

With only two people left in the cemetery, Kasahara Asuka pressed Fujiwara Reya, proudly puffing out her chest: "Senpai has a favor to ask, right?"

"..." Fujiwara Reya really wanted to deny it.

Unfortunately, he had taken advantage of the little monk, and it’d weigh on his conscience if he refused to help.

"You want me to put in a good word with Koike, right?" Kasahara Asuka asked with a triumphant smile.

"...Yes." Fujiwara Reya couldn’t help but swallow.

Their faces were very close, her moist lips slightly parted, and her smile shone with a seductive gloss.

"I’ll help!" Kasahara Asuka nodded contently and then... she seemed to realize they were too close, blushed, and quickly released her hold, shifting her gaze elsewhere.

Having such weak defense, she’s a disgrace to little devils... Fujiwara Reya internally critiqued her.

"Senpai..." Kasahara Asuka cautiously turned her gaze slightly towards him, revealing an innocent smile as if to hide her shyness, "You’ll go with Asuka to get nails done in the future, right?"

"Sure."

"You have to accompany Asuka to get her ears pierced."

"Sure."

"Senpai has to get pierced too."

"Sure... wait, not happening!"

"No way!" Kasahara Asuka suddenly stood on tiptoes, pulling on his collar, shaking her head to issue a command, "You have to, and we must get matching earrings!"

Each shake of her head sent her lovely orange hair playfully bouncing around, like a mischievous paw of an orange tabby cat, making Fujiwara Reya feel relaxed and he couldn’t help but laugh.

Kasahara Asuka laughed too: "That means Senpai agreed!"

"We’ll see..." Fujiwara Reya thought about stalling as long as he could.

"Senpai can’t escape!" Kasahara Asuka made a gun gesture, fired an imaginary bullet at his chest, and wore a triumphant smile.

"You can’t conquer me!"

Fujiwara Reya also revealed a confident smile.

Honestly, the junior’s face was indeed cute, and although her actions were somewhat deliberate, since she only struck such poses in front of him, it was hard to dislike her. Due to her pampered upbringing, some aspects were a bit of a headache, but not beyond saving, as long as slowly guided...
