Fashionably dressed men and women went in and out of various shopping places, luxury stores, and entertainment centers, enjoying the bright lights and debauchery, spending money and wantonly enjoying the decadence of the peak of the bubble era.

Drunk men can be seen everywhere walking out of brothels and being helped into the car by one or several beautiful women.

Under the flashing neon billboards, mamasan and beauties are soliciting customers on the roadside. Their warm smiles can quickly welcome customers into the store.

Looking at all this, Kurata Himiri said a little embarrassedly: "I am really sorry to bother you, sir. Will this delay your socializing with friends?"

Normally, after get off work, for powerful people like the section chief, going out for a drink and some entertainment is a normal lifestyle.

It’s just that Nagano Nao is not yet accustomed to the current social culture. Compared to going out for drinks and fighting over girls, he prefers a purer relationship.

For example, emotional relationships, and then some changes occur.

For example, if a beautiful female employee is close to you, it should be easier to take action.

All right!

As a loser, I am used to being poor and hungry.

Although he has gained some status now, there is still a thrifty nature in him, and that strange thing still longs for love.

Although he knew very well that this kind of love was still just about lusting after someone's body.

"I rarely attend such social events. Would Ms. Kurata like to go for a drink?"

"Ah! No, I don't like this kind of socializing either, I just don't want to affect your daily activities."

"How could that be! Actually, I'm not as happy as I am now when I attend social events."

Is this a hint?

Kurata Himiri became nervous.

For a long time, rumors about unspoken rules in the workplace have been nothing new.

There are always some seniors or bosses who, relying on their power and seniority, take advantage of others by expressing their admiration.

Kurata had encountered such a situation before.

When she was working in the Osaka branch, her boss used the excuse of sending her home, said something similar, and then put his hands on her.

The result of her resistance was that she lost her salary increase, promotion and qualifications in the Osaka branch. She was transferred to the Tokyo Planning and Reception Department. If Nao Nagano had not suddenly arrived and needed a group of newcomers with no background, she would only be responsible for entertaining customers.

There is no reward if you do a good job, and if you do a bad job, you will be blamed.

Involuntarily, the muscles in Kurata Himiri's legs tensed up, and she held her breath in fear, afraid that a claw would suddenly reach out and she wouldn't know what to do.

She really wasn't sure if she had the courage to resist such harassment and coercion.

But after waiting for a long time, there was no molestation as she expected, which made her wonder whether she should relax and think that the adult was a gentleman, or be angry that the man in front of her was blind.

A strange thought flashed through my mind.

Kurata Himiri's eyes reflected the light under the lights, shining like gems, and rolled around as she secretly looked at this man who had become a big shot just after his internship.

What kind of injury did he suffer to leave such a terrible scar? He looks like a very gentleman!

But speaking of it, the adults do look very manly!

But if he didn't have any scars from the injuries, he would be a truly handsome man!

Too.

How could such a manly and handsome guy be that kind of lowly man!

"If you want to look at me, Ms. Kurata, you can do so openly. I know I'm very handsome and you won't mind." Sensing Kurata's gaze, Nagano Nao joked.

Ah! How can you say such shameless words! Kurata Himiri was caught again and felt ashamed, but after calming down, she felt that such adults were particularly interesting.

The tension gradually subsided.

It brought a sense of relaxation and also brought people closer together.

As a fellow young person, Kurata Himiri finally confirmed that the adult in front of her was really approachable: "Hate it! Nagano-kun, you are making fun of me! I'm just a little curious about you!"

"Oh, what are you curious about?"

"I'm curious why you dare to talk to the seniors like that. Don't you know that you must never offend the seniors in the company?"

"What's the big deal? I'm just expressing my opinion, can they eat me up?!"

"Of course it's amazing!!! You don't know how much Kyoko and Reino adore you."

"Worship me, why?"

"I see. So, Kurata, do you worship me?"

"This. That. This."

Kurata Himiri clenched her fingers and began to stammer. It was too embarrassing to say words like admiration.

Fortunately, there was a fork in the road ahead, so she quickly changed the subject and said, "Turn right!"

Following the instructions, Nagano Nao slowed down, turned left and right, and stopped in front of an old-looking house at Senju Station.

"Mr. Nagano, you have worked hard. Please come upstairs and have some water!" After getting off the car, Kurata Himiri quickly expressed her gratitude and said politely.

Nagano Nao asked with interest: "Won't your boyfriend misunderstand this time?"

Why is that the answer? Shouldn't you say, "No thanks" or something like that?

I was just being polite, but now it's become awkward.

Kurata Himiri had no choice but to say: "Well, I don't have a boyfriend yet!"

"Ms. Kurata is so beautiful, how come you don't have a boyfriend?"

"I just started working on this. I don't think it's the right time yet."

"It's Nagano who is being rude, but it's already very late, so it's inconvenient for me to disturb you!"

He is indeed a real gentleman! Kurata Himiri put down her last bit of guard and said politely: "It's okay!"

"It's really okay? Sorry to bother you then!"

“.”

Why did it turn out like this? Kurata Himiri looked at Nagano Nao in astonishment as he got off the bus, and felt that she seemed to be acting strange tonight.

I clearly didn't want to get in the car, but he sent me back. I was clearly just being polite, but now I have no choice but to take him home.

This guy, doesn't he understand that others are being polite? Or am I too polite? I mean, it's okay, sir, if you don't want to go up, you can go home now! ! ! ! How can you be so rude?

With such confusion, Kurata Himiri could only lead Nagano Nao upstairs.

The one-bedroom apartment has a very small living room, but it is tidy and looks very warm.

The most interesting thing is that there is a big doll on the bed, and on the bedding there is a set of brightly colored underwear, black with lace edges, which looks very sexy.

When she noticed Nagano Nao's eyes looking at her, Kurata Himiri's face turned red and she didn't know how to explain it.

He wouldn't think that I was seducing him, would he? She quickly poured some water to hide her embarrassment, but she became nervous in her heart. She blocked Nagano's sight, and said with a hot face, "Nagano-kun, please drink some water."

"Thank you for the hospitality." Nagano Nao took a sip of water and said casually: "Kurata, why do you live here? Isn't it inconvenient to go to work so far away?"

"The rent near the company is too expensive. It's much cheaper here. Although it's a little far, it's still very convenient to get to Senju with the subway."

"Is that so? Then you have to work hard, Kurata. If possible, after this project is completed, I will find a way to help you apply for some rent subsidies."

"Ah! That's great, I will definitely work hard!"

Kurata Himiri cheered. If there really was a rent subsidy, life would become a lot easier.

Seeing her happy look, Nagano Nao smiled and said, "I'm just talking, but I'm not sure whether the higher-ups will agree to it."

"Then I am very grateful to you, sir! There is always a chance, right!"

"Well, it's getting late and I should go home. Goodnight!"

The habit remains.

Kurata Himiri really wanted to be polite and keep him.

Just thinking of the embarrassing situation at the beginning of the night, she suppressed the twisted urge to be polite, bowed, and sent Nagano Nao out.

The figure walks away.

Only then did Kurata Himiri pat her chest which was full of sugar.

The situation just now was really embarrassing.

Fortunately, he is a very upright and responsible gentleman!

Help me apply for a rent subsidy! I am so lucky to be able to work with such an adult! At this moment, Nagano Nao suddenly lowered the car window and looked over and said, "Actually, Miss Kurata's temperament, black doesn't suit you. If it's blue or red, it must be very beautiful."
