Chapter 450

Isami Suzuka was excited.

She carefully took out her phone and pressed the camera button.

"Very good, this way Ren won't be able to deny it. Heh heh, dressing up so beautifully to go out on a date with a man, isn't this a couple? Heh heh."

She hummed twice.

Isami Suzuka held her fork, twirled some noodles, and put them into her mouth. As she chewed, the noodles, which were usually quite tasty, suddenly felt like they had unexpectedly lost their flavor.

She was in no mood.

At this moment, Isami Suzuka only wanted to know how far the relationship between Nanase Ren and that man had progressed.

"Right, let me send Muku a message. I can also take the opportunity to ask about how Muku is getting along with that mysterious man on her end."

This was a good opportunity.

Isami Suzuka immediately edited a message and chose to send it.

——Muku, do you know who I ran into while eating at the Italian restaurant? I have explosive news!

A minute later, Isami Suzuka received a reply.

——Who? A celebrity?

——No, it's Ren. Ren is secretly out on a date with her mysterious boyfriend at the Italian restaurant, and I happened to bump into them, hahaha.

After sending it, Isami Suzuka felt it wasn't enough, so she edited another one.

——I'm sending you the photo I snuck. Ren looks so beautiful today. It's the first time I've seen her dressed up so nicely; there's no problem saying she's a female celebrity. Even Sakurajima Mai isn't as good as Ren right now.

The photo she took was also sent over.

But Isami Suzuka waited a long time without receiving a reply.

She was puzzled.

Why isn't Muku replying?

She thought for a moment and edited another message.

——Muku, what about you! Confess honestly, did you also secretly start dating a boyfriend behind my back? Both of you found boyfriends, leaving me as the only one still single. That's too much!

Two minutes later, she received a reply.

——No.

The reply was very cold.

Isami Suzuka felt it.

——Suzuka will find a partner! Sorry, my sister is calling me. I'll go first, let's talk later.

So that's how it is!

She had thought Muku was dissatisfied with her!

Isami Suzuka looked again at Nanase Ren, who was smiling like a flower at a distant table.

"Tsk tsk tsk..."

"Very pretty, smiling so brightly. Dating a man really is different."

She shook her head.

She was thinking about whether she should go over and disturb them, give Ren a huge surprise, and incidentally see her good friend's boyfriend!

Fujibayashi Kyou, who was playing in Odaiba with her younger sister, clearly felt the change in her sister's mood.

The dejected appearance was as if she had suffered some major shock.

"Muku, what's wrong?"

But her sister didn't respond, which made Fujibayashi Kyou walk to her sister's side, place a hand on her sister's shoulder, shake her, and say,

"Muku,"

"Eh! Sister, what's wrong? Is something the matter?"

"I should be the one asking you. Absent-minded, looking so miserable, what happened?"

"No, nothing..."

Fujibayashi Muku shook her head repeatedly to deny it, but Fujibayashi Kyou didn't believe her. How could she not see her sister's dejected and unhappy look!

"Speak, I am your sister after all,"

"Really nothing,"

Fujibayashi Kyou recalled, her eyes looking down, her gaze falling on the phone in Fujibayashi Muku's right hand.

"Give me the phone."

"No,"

"As expected, there's a problem. Did Lin Ye contact you to ask you out to play today?"

Because they were already here in Tokyo Odaiba, her sister definitely couldn't keep the appointment, unless she chose to abandon her sister, but Muku clearly couldn't do that yet.

"It's not that, Sister. Lin-kun didn't send me a message."

Fujibayashi Muku said as she stuffed the phone into her crossbody bag, "Let's go! Sister, we haven't eaten yet! I want to eat pork cutlet rice."

"Fine!"

There were quite a few people in Odaiba on the weekend.

But at this time of day, the number of tourists dining at the restaurant wasn't high.

Fujibayashi Kyou quickly brought her sister to a restaurant, sat down, and ordered two portions of pork cutlet rice.

While waiting, Fujibayashi Muku got up first to go to the restroom.

Fujibayashi Kyou thought for a moment and made a decision. She took advantage of her sister going to the restroom to take her sister's phone.

Facial recognition, unlock successful.

There was absolutely no privacy between the sisters.

Before long, Fujibayashi Kyou knew the situation.

The man sitting opposite Nanase Ren was Lin Ye. Although there was only a back view, she recognized him at a glance, and since she recognized him, let alone her sister.

"Sister..."

The returning Fujibayashi Muku stared blankly at her sister, "How could you do this."

She ran back quickly, snatched the phone, looking angry, yet forcefully holding back from exploding.

"I apologize to you, sorry, for looking at your phone without permission,"

Fujibayashi Kyou didn't argue. Her calm eyes watched her angry sister, her red lips moving slightly as she said, "Muku, give up!"

One sentence revealed Fujibayashi Kyou's inner thoughts.

Give up!

Give up on Lin Ye!

"Nanase Ren likes him, your friend likes him."

Sentence after sentence struck Fujibayashi Muku's heart, causing the girl, whose face had turned slightly pale, to 'thump' down onto the chair.

She felt somewhat powerless.

"End it here! It's a good thing for you and for Miss Nanase."

"..." Fujibayashi Muku bit her red lip tightly, her eyes revealing a trace of stubborn unwillingness.

She couldn't let go.

"They are just friends going out to play, just like the weekend before."

Upon hearing this, the helplessness between Fujibayashi Kyou's brows became even more obvious.

Her sister was now deceiving herself.

"It's fine to lie to me with those words, but don't deceive yourself."

Fujibayashi Muku could deceive others, but she couldn't deceive her own heart.

"If you really think so, why are you so absent-minded, distracted, and miserable after receiving this photo? I am your sister, your twin sister who grew up with you from childhood, how could I not understand you."

Fujibayashi Muku lowered her head, looking at the tabletop, her right hand fiddling unintentionally.

Fujibayashi Kyou didn't urge her either.

A few minutes later, the waiter brought two portions of pork cutlet rice to the table.

The pork cutlet was fried golden, crispy, and fragrant, dotted with red ketchup, pickled ginger strips and cucumber as side dishes, white rice with a little black sesame, and a bowl of miso soup emitting hot steam.

Fujibayashi Kyou's appetite was whetted; having walked all morning, she was already hungry.

"Eat first, Muku."
