Chapter 28 Chapter 28 What Taste
Two servings of fluffy shaved ice had been waiting obediently on the table for a long time.
After taking the photos and teasing Jinpei Matsuda.
Very perfect, hehe.
Just as the satisfied Airi Momozawa was about to use a spoon to scoop out a mouthful of the mouth-watering shaved ice, a sudden idea flashed through her mind.
She put down the spoon and snapped Matsuda Jinpei's hand, which was holding up the spoon. "What the hell! Keep the ice under your mouth, Matsuda-senpai!"
Jinpei Matsuda, who had been patiently waiting for the other party to take a photo for a long time, said: "..."
Tonight, he felt that he had lost his temper because of all the novel behaviors that Momozawa Airi came up with.
Momozawa Airi was like a cunning and lazy cat, teasing him sincerely from time to time, and she exuded the innocent temperament of a little animal.
When he came over, she would scratch him with her paw without hesitation, without any pain.
There is an invisible sense of bewitching, making people want to see her next move.
Matsuda Jinpei: “…”
Oops.
He seemed to be enjoying it a bit.
Matsuda Jinpei paused, dismissing his dangerous thoughts. He lowered his eyes to look at the other person's hand holding his wrist: "Hey, what are you going to do now?"
After waiting for a while without receiving a reply from Momozawa Airi, Matsuda Jinpei looked up with some confusion and found that Momozawa Airi's expression looked a little subtle.
Matsuda Jinpei: “?”
Momozawa Airi's eyes curved as her fingers slowly rubbed Matsuda Jinpei's hand, starting from the wrist and moving to the palm area.
Then, she gently scratched the palm of Jinpei Matsuda's hand with the nails of her index and middle fingers.
Momozawa Airi's nails were neatly trimmed and of moderate length, and her rounded curves rubbed slowly and methodically back and forth on Matsuda Jinpei's soft palm several times.
...Although Mr. Matsuda's fingers look stiff and there are thin calluses on his fingertips, his palms are surprisingly soft.
She thought silently, staring at Matsuda Jinpei's increasingly unnatural expression for a while, and suddenly said something in a low voice without any context.
"Matsuda-senpai, this is a joke."
The ending sound is light and airy.
…
After perfectly carrying out "I don't know how many times I've played this prank tonight", Momozawa Airi rolled her eyes and was about to withdraw her hand to achieve a perfect prank ending, but her fingers were fixed in place by Matsuda Jinpei's sudden fist.
Matsuda Jinpei placed his thumb on the base of her fingers and slowly wrapped his whole hand around her two fingers.
“I can’t scratch it now.”
His ears felt hot, and he subconsciously continued her nonsense.
Momozawa Airi was caught off guard and didn't expect that the other party still had the energy to fight back despite being embarrassed, so she froze for a moment.
...What, what should I do? She has always only dared to tease shy people.
If someone fights back, she will be helpless.
“…”
Just as they were looking at each other and maintaining this inexplicable finger-holding posture on the table, a strange voice suddenly sounded beside them.
"Good evening, my two guests."
The tall waiter stood by the table with an expressionless face, pointing to the two bowls of shaved ice on their table.
"The store manager asked me to inform you that if you don't eat it now, it will melt and we will not be responsible."
The ambiguous atmosphere was instantly broken by his ruthless remarks.
The waiter, having successfully completed the notification task, walked away, leaving behind Momozawa Airi and Matsuda Jinpei, both blushing.
Momozawa Airi: "..."
Matsuda Jinpei: “…”
*
They quickly separated their hands as if they had been electrocuted.
Momozawa Airi's face flushed: "Senior Xuexue, please eat quickly, wait wait wait, it will melt soon."
Matsuda Jinpei's ears burned: "...I was about to eat, but you, an idiot, interrupted me!"
There was still a slight tingling sensation in the palm of his hand, and Matsuda Jinpei clenched his fist somewhat unnaturally, placing his hand on the table with the back of his hand facing upwards.
"..." Momozawa Airi pursed her lips, thinking of something cool in her mind, trying to quickly restore her flushed cheeks to normal. "I, I, I, I just interrupted you for a reason!"
Ice cream popsicles air-conditioned refrigerator snowball snowman sea water watermelon——
She lowered her head and continued to mutter something cold to herself as she fumbled out a Polaroid camera from her bag: "... Let's take a picture together."
Momozawa Airi paused and waved the camera at Matsuda Jinpei.
"I haven't taken a photo with my senior yet. Today is our first day together. How meaningful."
She pointed to the shaved ice in front of her.
"Use this as decoration... I also want to take a solo photo, hehe."
First day.
group photo.
Matsuda Jinpei repeated these words silently in his mind, and suddenly felt a subtle throbbing in his heart.
He feigned composure as he glanced at the Polaroid camera: "Shall I take a picture for you first?"
"Let's take a photo first." Momozawa Airi shook her head while holding the camera and suggested seriously, "Let's ask that waiter from earlier to take the photo for us. He's very handsome and you can tell he's a good photographer."
Jinpei Matsuda, who was suddenly accused of not being able to take photos, said: "..."
Momozawa Airi turned her head and looked at the bar: "I just caught a glimpse of his ID card, it seems his name is Kinomoto..."
Suddenly, she felt her hands were empty.
Momozawa Airi: "?"
She turned her head in a daze and only heard the sound of the shutter.
Click.
A photo slowly emerged from the Polaroid camera.
Matsuda Jinpei peeked out from behind the camera, his eyebrows raised with an expression that said, "I'm a great photographer." "It's a very natural shot."
He added: "Snapshot."
Momozawa Airi: "..."
She quietly picked up the photo and waited for the image to slowly appear.
Eyes wide open in confusion, hands clenching the air in the air, hair flying and blocking the face, slightly open mouth, and red cheeks and ears.
Before I even had time to look at the camera.
I can't find any appropriate adjectives other than words like "dumb", "silly" and "silly".
Like a silly dog.
Momozawa Airi: "..."
Matsuda Jinpei leaned over with a hint of pride. "How's it? Nice and natural shots, right?"
When he saw the photo, he was silent for a moment, then tried to smooth things over: "...very natural stupidity."
Momozawa Airi: "…………"
Momozawa Airi, who exuded a melancholic air, was silent for a moment, then suddenly snatched the camera from him when he wasn't paying attention and pressed the shutter button.
Click.
A nonchalant look, slightly raised eyebrows, blushed cheeks, and a loose neckline.
A photo of Jinpei Matsuda that could be described as "maybe, maybe, maybe 80% likely, a little sexy" was ejected from the Polaroid camera.
Momozawa Airi: "..."
Momozawa Airi: "…………"
Airi Momozawa was furious at the camera: "Why?! Whose camera is this?!"
She angrily grabbed Matsuda Jinpei's waist and said, "Senior Matsuda, what was that thing you just filmed for me?"
Matsuda Jinpei dodged nimbly while sarcastically complaining, "If I find bruises all over my waist when I get back, it's probably all from you."
Momozawa Airi: "Who told you that your waist is the softest and easiest to pinch, while other places have a lot of muscles——"
The customers around turned their heads to look over.
Someone said, "Hey, stop looking at them, young people will be shy," and they all turned back.
Momozawa Airi: "..."
Matsuda Jinpei: “…”
Momozawa Airi suddenly fell silent.
It sounded like she had pinched many other places before.
…It’s all Jinpei Matsuda’s fault!!
*
Finally, they called the waiter to take a photo with them.
Momozawa Airi secretly glanced at the other person's work badge and found that the waiter's full name was Toya Kinomoto.
She raised two fingers towards Touya Kinomoto: "Please take two pictures for us, thank you~"
She planned to share one with Jinpei Matsuda and take one home.
Kinomoto Touya nodded casually and raised his camera: "Let's start."
Momozawa Airi sat next to Matsuda Jinpei, a little distance away from him.
This was her first time taking a couple photo, and she couldn't figure out what pose to strike.
...So I compared it to the omnipotent one.
Kinomoto Touya commented calmly, "It seems as if you two don't know each other."
Momozawa Airi: "..."
Matsuda Jinpei: “…”
Matsuda Jinpei tilted his head to look at her and said coldly, "Why are you making the 'yeah' sign to him again?"
Momozawa Airi: "?"
Momozawa Airi argued: "The gesture I just made was two! It was two!!"
She gritted her teeth, put down the "yeah" sign she had just made, and was quickly recalling the "complete list of couple photo poses" she had seen on Instagram when she suddenly felt her shoulders sink.
Matsuda Jinpei raised his arms and put his arms around her neck, pulling her closer to him: "Sorry for the trouble."
These words were said to Touya Kinomoto.
Momozawa Airi was stunned for a moment.
Her face was leaning against the side of Matsuda Jinpei's neck, and she could almost...
Kiss the other person's Adam's apple.
“…”
She quickly dismissed the thought, adjusted her expression, and smiled at the camera.
My expression should be very natural.
The hand position should be natural.
Hearing the voice in her head, Momozawa Airi, who had been putting on a business smile, couldn't help but want to laugh out loud.
The curve of her lips deepened.
Click.
Click.
"Thank you~"
Taking the camera and photos from Touya Kinomoto, Airi Momozawa thanked him obediently.
Before she had time to look at the photo, the photo in her hand was taken away by Jinpei Matsuda with his fingers.
He quickly glanced at the two photos and picked out one: "I want this one."
Then he stuffed the other one into Momozawa Airi's hand.
Momozawa Airi: "?"
Momozawa Airi: "Let me see, let me see."
Jinpei Matsuda pursed his lips, turned sideways, and deliberately moved the photo away.
No matter how softly Airi Momozawa begged, he refused to give it to her.
Momozawa Airi: "..."
Momozawa Airi exuded an air of resentment: "Matsuda-senpai, can you make me even angrier?"
able.
Matsuda Jinpei's next move was to take away the silly candid photo of Momozawa Airi.
Momozawa Airi: "..."
Momozawa Airi: "…………"
Momozawa Airi: "Ahhhh you can't take me home——ah, I was wrong, it's my photo——"
*
The candid photo was eventually snatched away.
“…Senior is so cunning!!”
"Who told you to be short-handed, little one?"
"Matsuda-senpai, are yours really long? You just have the advantage of being tall!! I have good proportions!"
“…”
After all the fighting and playing, the shaved ice did melt a little.
But Momozawa Airi still enjoyed her meal happily.
Because Matsuda Jinpei gave her his share =v=, and she hit and pulled his waist several times.
…Even though it was her treat, I somehow felt like I ate too much!
Momozawa Airi took a bite of the soft shaved ice, blinked her eyes, and looked at Matsuda Jinpei who was propping up his chin beside her: "Matsuda-senpai, guess what the shaved ice I'm eating now tastes like~"
Matsuda Jinpei was looking down at the photo in his hand. Upon hearing this, he stuffed the photo into his pocket, glanced up, and concluded, "Strawberry."
Momozawa Airi curled her lips, not knowing why the other party didn't let her take a look at the photo.
stingy person.
She paused, then hummed and replied, "Correct."
Before Matsuda Jinpei could react, Momozawa Airi continued slowly, "What a shame! If you say you don't know, you can find out by kissing me."
Matsuda Jinpei: “…”
Momozawa Airi blinked and scooped up another spoonful of Matsuda Jinpei's shaved ice: "Then guess what this shaved ice tastes like~"
Matsuda Jinpei leaned back in his chair and raised an eyebrow: "I don't know."
Momozawa Airi nodded, looking serious. "You don't even know this? It's obviously chocolate, Jinpei-chan, you're so good."
Matsuda Jinpei: “…………”
*
Jinpei Matsuda walked Momozawa Airi to her doorstep.
He watched Momozawa Airi mutter things like "Stingy guy, let me see the photo" and "Damn, that's obviously my photo paper" as she walked into the house, looking back every few steps.
Finally, Momozawa Airi's shoulders slumped, and she waved her hand resignedly: "Goodbye, stingy Matsuda-senpai."
"..." Matsuda Jinpei couldn't help but chuckle, "Goodbye, childish ghost."
When walking back alone, Matsuda Jinpei took out the photo that he had hidden well.
Momozawa Airi smiled sweetly at the camera and was held in his arms.
And he himself——
Jinpei Matsuda stared at his own figure for a while.
In the photo, he was not looking at the camera, but slightly tilting his head to look at Momozawa Airi.
There was a hint of tenderness in his usually careless eyes.
...In another group photo, he was looking at the camera carefully.
“…”
The street lights cast a warm filter on the two people in the photo.
He took out another photo.
A personal photo of Momozawa Airi.
She looks silly in the photo.
Jinpei Matsuda's fingertips gently stroked Momozawa Airi's face in the photo.
He stared at the photo for a while and felt that what Momozawa Airi said was quite right.
If you receive a gift, it can really help you recall what happened before and after.
Matsuda Jinpei's first reaction was—
Just now in the dessert shop, why did Momozawa Airi suddenly think of "scratching".
This isn't a very common idea.
It was like I could read his mind.
...telepathy?
Combined with the many subtle coincidences that had occurred before, Jinpei Matsuda felt something was not right.
Momozawa Airi seems to be a little too considerate.
...but he wasn't sure.
Matsuda Jinpei's second reaction was—
...The first day of official dating.
Jinpei Matsuda put the photo away and walked forward with his hands in his pockets.
...What does it smell like?
The words of Momozawa Airi flashed through his mind involuntarily.
"What a shame. If you say you don't know, just kiss me and you'll know."
When she said this, her eyes sparkled with a cunning gleam.
The soft and rising ending tone has a bewitching feeling.
Really looks like a cat.
“…”
Jinpei Matsuda lowered his eyes, and a somewhat excessive idea came to his mind.
A cat that plays tricks on people all day long...
It makes people want to grab it and rub it hard from top to bottom.
