Coin given by Miku

As they gave their respective assessments of the dessert, this gathering that could barely be considered a party, ended quickly.

After all, there were two creatures who basically didn't talk much. No matter how much Nino and Yotsuba found topics to talk about, they couldn't last long in this situation.

After Nino paid the bill, their group walked out of the dessert shop together.

"We will visit the dessert shop next. Do you want to come with us? "Nino invited the two of them with a smile.

Ren refused: "No."

He might agree to go somewhere interesting, but he won't agree to a dessert shop that he can go to alone and that's pretty boring.

"I'm not going either," Miku also refused.

"Then let us part ways here."

Nino didn't care at all about their rejection, the invitation was just an invitation she made out of politeness, she didn't care if she was rejected.

"Let's go this way."

Ren was about to turn around and leave, but Miku suddenly grabbed the hem of his clothes and forced him to walk in the same direction as her.

Seeing the two of them retreat, Yotsuba poked Nino gently with her elbow and asked curiously: "Nino, what kind of relationship do you think they have? Are they a couple? I feel a little different."

"They aren't really a couple," Nino straightened her hair and said casually, "How could there be a couple without saying a word?"

"Could it be that they are the legendary pair of lovers who were not yet lovers, but more than just friends?"

Yotsuba suddenly thought of this and became excited.

"I could, but they're both too shy to talk to each other." After thinking about it carefully, Nino agreed with Yotsuba's statement, "But if you really want to talk about it, Naoki and I are also that kind of relationship."

Yotsuba was silent for a moment, then continued: "Let's not talk about your problem for now. This is the first time I've seen Miku having sex with a man."

"This is also my first time seeing it," Nino changed the topic, "But it has nothing to do with us."

"You should say there is some kind of relationship?" Yotsuba wasn't too sure, "Miku is our sister."

"But the focus today is not to care about the relationship between Miku and that boy." Nino pinched Yotsuba's face and reminded, "You are here today to help me choose a date place for Naoki and I."

In the past, she might have been as curious about the two of them as Yotsuba, but now, it was better to consider herself first.

She didn't know when her business would be finished, so she didn't have time to care about other people.

"...I know." Yotsuba brushed Nino's hand away and gently stroked her cheek.

"Let's go, stop looking."

Realizing that Yotsuba was still staring at their departing figure, Nino had no choice but to pull Yotsuba's clothes and drag her away from here.

"Let me watch for a moment, I want to know where they will go next," Yotsuba protested.

"Since you're so curious, ask Miku yourself later."

"Miku definitely won't say anything."

Yotsuba still knows Miku quite well and knows what her character is like.

"Then it's no use looking at them now," Complained Nino, "As long as they turn the corner, you won't see anything. How do you know where they went."

"Eh? It seems like this," Yotsuba was stunned.

"You just realized it. Let's go."

"Yes."

······

She walked along the path until he turned around and entered the park. After making sure Nino and Yotsuba could no longer see here, Miku stopped and said to Ren, "Sorry."

She actually didn't want to do that, it felt like forcing others, but the problem was that the Collection of Anecdotes from the Warring States Period was still in Ren's hands, and she didn't want this book to disappear in front of her again.

"Does not matter."

Ren never cared about things like that.

"That... The book can be returned to me."

Looking at the book in his hand, Miku reminded weakly.

After hearing this, Ren handed over the Collection of Anecdotes from the Warring States Period.

"Thank you, I'll buy you a drink."

After picking up the book she had been thinking about for a long time, Miku found a vending machine not far away.

Although Nino and Yotsuba did not ask about this book, even so, gratitude was still necessary.

Not to mention, she wanted to treat him to a meal beforehand.

Now that she can't treat him to a meal, let's treat him to a drink.

Thinking like this, Miku walked while thinking about the vending machine.

After hesitating for a while, Ren followed her and passed together.

"For you."

Seeing him coming, Miku hesitated for a moment, then took out a five hundred yen coin from her purse, handed it to Ren, then pointed at the vending machine. The meaning is quite clear.

Last time she invited him to drink his favorite matcha soda, but Ren said it tasted good and bad, so Miku decided to let him make the choice this time.

Five hundred yen is enough to buy a bottle of any drink at this vending machine. She doesn't have to worry about not enough money. If you buy a cheap one, you can buy two or three bottles.

"Thank You."

Ren naturally understood what he meant, took the coin from his hand, put it into the vending machine, then pressed the matcha soda button twice.

"Eh?"

Miku stood beside him, just staring at his movements blankly.

After a while, two thumping sounds could be heard from the vending machine.

"Give."

Taking out two bottles of matcha soda, Ren handed one of them to Miku.

"Didn't you say matcha soda tastes bad?"

Miku asked in confusion. Until now, she was still reflecting on what happened that day.

"If it doesn't taste good, I can't drink it?"

Ren opened the matcha soda in his hand, took a sip, and asked naturally.

"That makes sense."

Miku was confident in his point of view.

Seeing that Ren had been drinking, Miku looked at the soda in her hand, because she was still holding a book in her other hand, one person couldn't open the drink bottle.

"Open it for me."

So, she handed him another bottle of matcha soda.
