Mingmei usually goes out without makeup in her apartment.
She only dresses up deliberately when she's going out.
In order to contrast with her gentle temperament, she always wore mature and sophisticated makeup.
She's putting on makeup today because she's meeting Shuichi Akai; she's not a stranger.
She was wearing the same light makeup she used to have.
Looking at Akemi with admiration, Kōyū smiled and said:
"Sis, you're so pretty."
"You're beautiful even without makeup, but now you're even more beautiful with makeup that suits you so well."
"If I walked down the street, I guarantee I'd get 100% attention."
At this moment, Akemi was not in the mood to joke with Kousuke.
She glanced towards the door and said somewhat embarrassedly:
"It's not that exaggerated."
Since last week, when Kōyū told her that he had arranged for her to meet with Akai Shuichi this weekend.
When she's at home during the day and has nothing to do, this kind of situation always pops into her mind.
She was nervous at the time as well.

As the two spent more and more time together, she gradually guessed Shuichi Akai's true identity.
Undercover agent.
He was an undercover agent.
Before Shuichi Akai confessed, she continued to interact with him in her usual manner.
Occasionally, when someone noticed something was amiss, she would brush it off.
She didn't say anything, as if that would make it seem like nothing had happened.
When she was alone, her heart was filled with sorrow whenever she thought about this.
Shuichi Akai is usually very cold and rarely smiles.
Unlike Kwang-yu, who would express his feelings.
She could clearly sense Shuichi Akai's feelings for her at times.
But when she thought about his undercover identity, a question popped into her mind:
"Was he faking it on purpose?"
"Actually, he had no feelings for me at all."
"He just wanted to use me to get into the organization."
Another reason that made her nervous was:
Was his affection for her genuine?
