Reborn in a reconstituted family in Tokyo, Junichi Sai becomes fatherless right from the start, inheriting a substantial 'legacy'.
As the only male in the household, he must stand tal...
Is Chapter 119 here? Or here... or here?
"Mr. Sei, the young ladies are still here..."
At the dining table, Konagi sat respectfully, leaning on her skirt, her expression awkward.
"Um?"
"Owner……"
"Hmm, you've been standing for most of the day, you must be tired. I'm not that kind of heartless woman. Massage can help relieve the fatigue in your leg muscles quickly."
"No, no need, I'm just a servant..."
So, are you rejecting me?
Nagi, turning the room around, bit her lip lightly, her voice timid: "I, I didn't..."
She knew very well how skilled Sei-san was at understanding acupoints, since the other party had treated her foot injury before, so she dared not be careless.
I made preparations early in the morning.
Because of her years of exercise, Konagi's legs are more elastic and slender than the average person's, and her acupoints are easier to find.
With just a little pressure applied to the acupoints, you can quickly stimulate the nerves in your legs and relieve fatigue with twice the result.
Upon hearing what Junichi Sei said, Nagi Utatane immediately loosened her fist and placed it on the table.
If I get caught, I'll definitely embarrass myself.
"Relax and start eating yourself, otherwise it will only make people think it's even stranger."
Junichi saw through the other person's subtle movements, but the pressure he applied to the pressure points did not lessen in the slightest.
This young girl's perseverance is astonishing. Even so, she was still able to steadily pick up her chopsticks and carefully place the sashimi into her bowl.
It seems that Chizuru Goryuin really has been training him quite a bit.
If it were an ordinary woman, she would probably have lost in the first round.
For example, early guidance, and even starting to actively cater to it, cough cough...
Of course, none of this could fool Junichi's eyes, and the jade-like neck and earlobes that were unseen by outsiders were already covered in crimson.
Then let's be more serious!
For a master of advanced massage skills, the inability to quickly locate acupoints and defeat an enemy with a single blow is an absolute disgrace.
At that moment, Junichi Sei's voice rang out again: "It seems we still haven't found the right acupoint."
Nagi felt a jolt of fear as she turned to the next room, as if she knew what was about to happen.
Is this the place?
"Still here!"
"Or perhaps here?"
Junichi's voice was very soft; from a distance, it looked like he was simply moving his lips, as if he were chewing eel rice.
"Eek~"
"What's wrong?"
This time, the little maid's voice was quite loud, immediately attracting everyone's attention.
It was Saori Hayami who spoke; after all, being kind-hearted was her consistent personality trait.
Did you swallow a fish bone?
Junichi turned to look at her as well, and his bright eyes made Nagi Utatane feel flustered.
But where do fish bones come from in sashimi?
Sei-san is really too mean...
Nagi's face turned bright red, but she was helpless because she could tell that Se-san was really angry this time.
If they don't listen, given their personality, who knows what even more outrageous things they might do...
"I... I have a slight seafood allergy."
Nagi lowered her head timidly as she turned to the next room.
"Why didn't you say so earlier? Let's skip this and order something else."
Seeing Nagi looking so pitiful, Saori Hayate's maternal instincts kicked in again, and she glanced slightly at her best friend.
Seeing this, Chizuru Goryuin frowned, her eyes revealing a mixture of thought and confusion.
Does Nagi have a seafood allergy?
I have no recollection of this!
Seeing the unusual blush on Konagi's cheeks and the slight tremor in her voice, she finally nodded: "Then you can ask the chef to prepare some other things yourself."
"Hmm~" Utatane Nagi kept her head down, most of her face was covered by her short hair hanging down, but the chopsticks in her hand were gripped tightly, so tightly that her knuckles turned white.
From an angle just within someone's sight, he shook his head slightly, as if begging for mercy.
Junichi, however, calmly scooped up his eel bento box, as if nothing had happened.
What was supposed to be a unique technique to relieve muscle fatigue felt like a death knell at this moment, causing Nagi Utatane unbearable pain due to the opponent's deliberate exertion.
Why punish yourself when you just don't want the other person to be implicated?
Actually, I'm already used to standing for long periods of time, so this soreness is nothing to worry about.
Creak!
Just then, Konagi, who had been looking down, suddenly raised her head. The noise was so loud that even the chair protested, leaving tiny marks on the floor.
"I...I need to go to the restroom!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the little maid pushed away the stool and fled in panic.
She, who always adhered to proper etiquette, didn't even have time to greet the group this time.
"Is her allergy severe? I think I saw her crying."
Saori Hayami was a little worried and looked curiously at Junichi Sei, who was closest to Nagi Utatane.
Junichi subtly slipped his hand behind his back and secretly wiped his sweaty hands on the tablecloth.
"I don't know, I'll go check now."
Junichi Sei acted quickly, giving the others no time to react.
Only after his figure completely disappeared around the corner did a strange thought pop into their minds.
Nagi went to the girls' restroom. What could Junichi Se have been doing there?
...
Inside the bathroom, Nagi leaned against the door, panting heavily, her legs bent inwards, barely managing to keep from collapsing.
That's outrageous!
That's really too much, Mr. Sei! The young lady and the madam were right there, and yet he still did this...
Squeak~
Suddenly, the sound of a door opening caught Nagi's attention.
Who would it be in this situation?
Her heart skipped a beat, and for some reason, a bold conjecture suddenly popped into her head, making her unable to resist opening the door a crack.
"Why are you hiding? Am I that scary?!"
As the face of the culprit suddenly appeared, along with the familiar smile on his lips, her heart began to pound uncontrollably.
"This, this is the girls' restroom..."
"Have you forgotten? Madam has booked the entire venue today, so there won't be any outsiders."
As he spoke, Sei Junichi instinctively locked the door and slowly approached.
Seeing this, Konagi's heart was pounding in her throat. She instinctively wanted to back away, but realized that there was no way out except for the blocked wall behind her.
Hearing the increasingly clear footsteps of the other person, her heart pounded even harder, and the look in their eyes, which seemed to want to devour her whole, made her even more afraid to look directly at them.
"I...I want to go back." Nagi's voice trembled.
"What are you afraid of? I'm just here to apologize to you, and we have plenty of time."
"No, the ladies will find out."
"Don't want to? Then why don't you lock the door?"
"I... Waaah~"
Nagi wanted to explain, but her mouth... was completely gagged.
