Chapter 426: Sakurajima Mai’s Confusion!
Chapter 426: Sakurajima Mai’s Confusion! The Shinomiyas’ Dinner Party!
"This is Sakurajima Mai. And this is Kato Megumi, my girlfriend from the same class," Ren naturally introduced them.
"Nice to meet you." The two simply shook hands.
"Megumi, I’ll briefly explain the situation..." After his summary, Megumi understood. "It’s very similar to my situation, but hers is a superpower, while mine is just a kind of talent."
Her summary was very accurate. Her presence talent didn’t affect her normal life, unlike Mai’s ability, which was closer to an active ’Presence Concealment’ that she just couldn’t control yet.
"That’s right. I brought you here because I want you to talk to her, to help her quickly gain control," Ren looked at Shizuka. "I’ll trouble you with Megumi too, Sensei."
"Don’t worry. These are minor matters." Her house was usually quiet; one or two more people wouldn’t be a problem.
Her gaze shifted downwards, seeing Ren and Megumi’s hands intertwined. She figured they must be quite passionate. She smacked her lips and said, "Mai, I’ll go with you to buy some daily necessities."
"Mm, thank you, Shizuka-sensei."
The two left. Only Ren and Megumi remained. Looking at each other, Megumi spoke first. "Ren, I showered before I came, you know."
"!!!" This statement, paired with her cute, calm face... how could he possibly resist? He scooped her up and rushed towards Shizuka’s bedroom.
An hour later, Shizuka, who had finished shopping, took out her phone and called him.
"Mm, Shizuka, what’s up~?"
Listening to the voice, she rolled her eyes, turned slightly, and whispered, "When are you going to finish?"
"Hmm... three hours?"
"Are you kidding me? How do you expect me to tell Mai we’re staying out for three more hours?" she said, her voice unconsciously rising. Next to her, Mai awkwardly twitched the corner of her mouth, pretending not to hear. But inside, a storm raged. What are they doing? And three more hours? Is that something a person can do?
"Then it’s fine if you two come back; I’ve already soundproofed the room."
It was that line again. Shizuka was smarter this time. "Is the door locked too?"
"Tsk, you’ve learned, huh? Don’t worry, it’s locked. (Ren! Keep going!) Hmm, that’s it." He hung up.
Shizuka’s face was full of black lines. That must have been Megumi’s voice, very loud. "Is Kato Megumi that wild too?" she muttered.
Hearing her, Mai wanted to retort, "You’re all crazy!"
Putting away her phone, Shizuka said, "Let’s go back."
"Huh? N-now?" Mai was flustered; she really didn’t want to see a live broadcast.
Seeing her posture, Shizuka realized she probably understood. She coughed. "It’s fine. Let’s go."
She entered the house with a nervous heart. Quiet. There were no strange sounds at all. This made Mai breathe a sigh of relief.
"Um... don’t go into my room," Shizuka still reminded her, just in case.
"Mm... okay..." Mai lowered her head, drinking tea.
By the time the two walked out of the bedroom, it was already afternoon. Mai had already hidden in her room.
Shizuka came before them. Megumi’s serene face now gave her a subtle sense of charm and allure. Four hours. She really didn’t know how this girl endured it.
"Shizuka, I’ll leave them to you for now. I’m leaving."
"Something came up?" she asked.
"Yes, the Shinomiya Family has a banquet tonight and invited me." Just a few minutes ago, Kaguya had sent him a message.
"The Shinomiya Family?" Shizuka thought of Kaguya Shinomiya. "You really are a troublemaker, kid."
"Heh heh, I have the ability. Others who want to cause trouble can’t. Didn’t you say you liked it very much?" Ren said, his hands already unbuttoning Megumi’s blouse as they spoke. He leaned in, his tongue tracing the shell of her ear, making her gasp and arch into him. He didn’t care that Shizuka was watching; in fact, he enjoyed it.
"Pfft," Shizuka blushed and spat at him. Ren indeed had the ability. Not only was he strong, but he also had invincible stamina. Easily five or six hours. Who else could do that? And each time was the highest quality. Even she would lose herself within half an hour, becoming an animal driven purely by instinct. How embarrassing!
"Go on, go on. As for Megumi, why don’t you two chat with Mai?"
The Shinomiya Family’s banquet came suddenly. The financial magnates, families, and even some forces from the underworld all attended. They also wanted to see what Shinomiya Gan’an was up to. They all had their sources; he was almost dying, yet he had the mood to hold a banquet?
When Ren arrived, many people were being welcomed inside. Kaguya, in a red gown, stood at the entrance with a cold expression, only giving faint responses to those who greeted her.
Until she saw his figure in a black suit. "President!"
Her sudden action attracted the attention of many. Following her gaze, they saw a young man they hadn’t seen in their circle. It was impossible for someone from their circle not to remember him; his appearance and demeanor were too outstanding.
Some ladies had the idea of going up to talk to him. However, after seeing Kaguya walk over, they all dismissed the thought.
