The coffee here is quite good,\" Ash said.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Mm!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Haruka picked up the coffee and took a sip.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Wow, it's delicious!\" Haruka exclaimed.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"As long as you like it,\" Ash said.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After Haruka finished, Ash asked, \"Haruka, do you want to keep looking around? Let's go somewhere else to wander.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Okay!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Haruka agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Then let's go, Haruka,\" Ash called out.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Alrighty~\" Haruka replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Thus, the two left the café, preparing to continue playing nearby. However, they hadn't walked many steps before they saw two familiar figures.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Ash, it's so lively over there, let's go take a look.\" Haruka pulled Ash and ran toward that direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Ouch, that hurts like hell! Boss lady, what are you doing!\" a roar came from ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"I'm sorry, sir, you were the one who bumped into me first,\" a lady wearing a work uniform said.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Hmph, I don't care. You must compensate me for my mental distress, and also, you dirtied my clothes, so you have to help me wash them clean.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"This...\" the waitress said hesitantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Hmph, what kind of attitude is that? Do you believe I'll report you? Do you know how much these clothes cost?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"I'm sorry, sir, our shop does private custom work, so the prices are relatively high,\" the waitress explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Hehe, private custom? Isn't it just a dollar a piece? Does this kind of dump count as private custom?\" the man said disdainfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"This... sir, our shop truly belongs to the private custom category, so the price is not cheap,\" the woman said.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Hmph, isn't it just a hundred yuan? Look at what I'm wearing! This is a limited edition casual outfit!\" As the man spoke, he took off his jacket, revealing a white tracksuit underneath.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Wow, so handsome!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"So cool!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"This guy is so handsome, I've decided to pursue him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"I've decided to pursue him too!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The passersby around them began to whisper.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Sir, I will wash your clothes for you,\" the waitress said, gritting her teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Hehe, that's more like it. This time I'll be merciful and won't hold it against you. Remember, this is the last time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Yes!\" the waitress nodded hurriedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Alright, let's go,\" the boy said.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Mm!\" his female companion also nodded hurriedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Huh, sir, we've met again,\" Ash said.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Hm? Brother Ash, why are you here?\" the man asked in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Brother Ash?\" the female companion next to him asked, puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Hehe, Xiao Ming, what a coincidence. I didn't expect to run into you here. Are you here for a trip too?\" Ash said.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Haha, that's right, I'm here for a trip too. Brother Ash, why are you here?\" Xiao Ming asked curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"I'm here for a trip as well,\" Ash said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Then let's go together!\" Xiao Ming said happily.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Sure!\" Ash said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Mm, by the way, Brother Ash, what are you doing here?\" Xiao Ming asked curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Uh~ we're here to play ball,\" Ash said, stunned for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Wow~~~ Brother Ash, you can actually play basketball?\" Xiao Ming said exaggeratedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Hehe, it's just an amateur hobby,\" Ash said modestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Heehee, then Brother Ash, I want to join your team too. I want to learn your techniques,\" Haruka said.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Alright, Haruka, then you stay here and wait for me,\" Ash said.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Mm~\" Haruka nodded obediently.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Soon, after Ash and Xiao Ming finished playing, they came to Haruka's side.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Haruka, finished playing?\" Ash asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Mm, Brother Ash, you're so amazing. Every time you win the quarter!\" Haruka said with admiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Hehe, Haruka isn't bad either. What was your score for the quarter?\" Ash asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"My score for the quarter was 17 points! Five points more than you, heehee,\" Haruka said proudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Wow, worthy of being my little sister, Haruka is the best!\" Ash praised.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Heehee, thank you for the praise, Brother Ash,\" Haruka said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Let's go! Xiao Ming, let's go buy some ice cream,\" Haruka suggested.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Alright!\" Xiao Ming said happily.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"By the way, Brother Ash, Haruka, have you eaten yet?\" Xiao Ming asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Not yet. Brother Ash, I'm hungry. Can you take us to get a meal?\" Haruka asked, looking at him expectantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Of course I can!\" Ash said dotingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Thus, the three of them came to a restaurant.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Xiao Ming, Haruka, my treat today. Order whatever you want,\" Ash said generously.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Wow~ Brother Ash is the best,\" Haruka said.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Brother Ash, you're so domineering!\" Xiao Ming said with envy.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Xiao Ming, you're not bad either, having a girlfriend at such a young age,\" Ash teased.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Uh~~~ that, she's not my girlfriend,\" Xiao Ming said awkwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>0 . 0\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Hehe, alright, since she isn't, then let's eat,\" Ash said helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Afterward, the four of them finished dinner and went their separate ways.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Xiao Ming, where are you staying? Let me take you there,\" Ash asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Alright, thank you, Brother Ash,\" Xiao Ming said gratefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"It's nothing,\" Ash said, waving his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Afterward, Ash and Xiao Ming drove Xiao Ming and Haruka home.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After Ash and Haruka said goodbye to Xiao Ming, they arrived at Shirona's house.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Haruka, you're finally back. Why didn't you answer when I called you earlier? You worried Mommy to death,\" Shirona said, blaming them.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Mommy, we were just playing basketball, we didn't hear it,\" Haruka said, acting spoiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Chr\u002F>\u003Cp>\u003Cem>— Author's Notes —\u003C\u002Fem>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>· 0 Seeking flowers··· ····\u003C\u002Fp>",1053,"2026-06-16T23:59:02.585Z","2026-06-17T08:58:05.219Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","1e00df7bef3cd8fdf0986f3b3dd624ad4544440fb1650c8cb3f451fa7367d13c","dual-ash-comparison-serena-is-too-blessed-chapter-359","dual-ash-comparison-serena-is-too-blessed-chapter-357",367,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdual-ash-comparison-serena-is-too-blessed-cover.jpg"]
