Chapter 786

Even though she knew Ryuji was joking, Mai still felt amused.

　　"What kind of reason is that?" Mai hummed.

　　"Let's talk about it first. I can pretend not to see what happened to the other girls, but you have to accompany me when I rest!"

　　Mai made such a request because her time with Ryuji was very short due to work reasons.

　　"Does not matter!"

　　Ryuji feels guilty towards Mai, and usually does not refuse her requests.

　　"It doesn't matter. Go shopping with me in the afternoon. Now let's cook..." Mai waved her hand and asked Ryuji to cook.

　　"You really want me to do it?" Ryuji was stunned.

　　Mai frowned, "Didn't you say you were going to cook? I want to eat chicken wings, there must be some ingredients in the refrigerator."

　　"Yes!" Ryuji shrugged and turned to the kitchen to prepare lunch.

　　Mai flipped through a fashion magazine containing the 15th cover, turned her peripheral gaze towards Ryuji who was busy in the kitchen, and slightly raised the corners of her mouth.

　　It's nice to live in a world of two people like this once in a while.

　　It wasn't just about letting Ryuji go shopping with her , but also the time they both spent at home.

　　"Are you ready?" Mai urged.

　　"Don't rush people who are waiting for passengers," Ryuji rolled his eyes.

　　Ryuji brought the prepared lunch to the table. Apart from the chicken wings that Mai ordered, there was also fried meat and vegetables.

　　There is meat and vegetables, a balanced combination.

　　After eating lunch prepared by Ryuji, Mai's eyes lit up.

　　She vaguely remembered that Ryuji said he knew how to cook, but she didn't expect his skills to be so good.

　　"Why, it feels so good I can't speak?" Ryuji looked at Mai with a smile.

　　"To be honest, my boyfriend is very skilled at his craft, and as a girl friend, I feel a lot of pressure," Mai sighed.

　　"Don't worry about that. I'm very lazy and don't want to compete with you for kitchen work."

　　"No one can accept laziness naturally except you," Mai hummed.

　　After lunch, as punishment for Ryuji, he was also given plates and chopsticks to wash after eating.

　　After everything was settled, Mai asked Ryuji on a date.

　　Even though it was nice to be at home like that, Mai didn't want to waste her rare rest time.

　　Because she is a public figure, Mai wears a mask and hat.

　　"I thought this would arouse suspicion more easily," Ryuji complained.

　　Forget it if it was winter, how could anyone cover themselves so tightly when going out in summer?

　　Mai thought for a moment and nodded.

　　"Then don't take it."

　　Mai took off her hat and mask.

　　Ryuji was stunned, "Is it okay?"

　　Mai's agency agreed to the fact that the girl was dating her boyfriend, but stipulated that it should be kept secret.

　　"It doesn't matter even if you are photographed by paparazzi. This kind of thing should have been announced a long time ago," Mai suddenly became firm.

　　Ryuji was slightly moved.

　　He held Mai's hand, smiled at her and said, "Let's go, I'll help you if anything happens!"

　　This is the responsibility as a man!

　　Every girl wants a sense of security.

　　Mai's potential as a national idol is gradually revealed, and more and more people recognize her on the streets.

　　"Is this Mai-san?" The girl who looked like a high school student asked timidly.

　　"Yes," Mai answered with a smile.

　　"Is it true?! Can you sign your name for me? I'm your fan!" The girl blushed happily.

　　"Of course." Mai smiled and wrote her name in the girl's notebook.

　　In general, agencies will restrict their artists from signing personally.

　　Autographs are essentially worthless, what is truly valuable is the celebrity's reputation.

　　"Thank you very much!"

　　The girl who received Mai's autograph expressed her gratitude excitedly.

　　"Um, who is this?"

　　Only then did the girl notice Ryuji next to Mai.

　　Mai did not shy away from suspicion, holding Ryuji's hand and introducing: "My boyfriend."

　　"What?!" The girl was shocked.

　　"Mai-san actually has a boyfriend? "

　　"This is big news!"

　　The girl remained where she was, while Mai and Ryuji quietly left.

　　"I suddenly regretted not letting you wear a mask when you went out," Ryuji said helplessly, "Including the girl just now, 13 fans came to ask for autographs along the way."

　　"Didn't I refuse the male fan's request for a handshake? Are you still dissatisfied?" Mai raised her eyebrows and looked at Ryuji provocatively.

"So after you told them that I was your boyfriend, those people looked at me with envy and jealousy." Ryuji was helpless.

　　"Does that bother you?"

　　"No, I feel fine!"

　　"Hmph!" Mai hummed, very satisfied with Ryuji's words.
