My girlfriend is actually myself.

Chapter 32 Airi Asakura is Not a Loser

Negotiations on the coffee shop agreement went relatively smoothly, progressing albeit with some setbacks, under the direction of Chihaya Asakura.

The treaty on the Tsukimiya side mainly consists of three clauses.

1. Yukimiya Natsune must spend two days each week at the Tsukimiya residence.

Second, Yukimiya Natsune must impersonate Tsukimiya Ruri and visit her grandmother at the nursing home. The time spent visiting her grandmother is counted within the time limit in item one, including preparation and commuting time.

3. For other events that require Yukimiya Natsune's attendance, Yukimiya Natsune should try to adjust her schedule to attend. The attendance time will also be counted within the time limit in item 1, including preparation and commuting.

Yukimiya Natsune can obtain three items as well.

First, the Moon Palace family will adopt her as their daughter, create an identity for her, and cover all her necessary expenses.

Second, depending on the completion rate of Natsumi Yukimiya's work, the Tsukimiya family will provide corresponding family property rewards.

Third, all the property that Yukimiya Natsune obtains during this process, including gifts from relatives, is at Yukimiya Natsune's free disposal.

"What do you think, Miss Yukimiya?" Asakura Chihaya asked, looking at the blonde girl in front of her.

To be honest, she didn't think the treaty was a good thing; it was too formal and too unfamiliar. But she couldn't do anything about it, since her wife had come up to her with a business-like demeanor.

You can't just turn around and talk about feelings after a business deal falls apart, can you?

Tsukimiya Aoi crossed her arms, feeling that the treaty was very tempting and that she had plenty of leverage, especially the second and third clauses that Yukimiya Natsune had obtained, which amounted to a large sum of money.

Seeing Yukimiya Natsune pick up a pen, Tsukimiya Aoi felt a surge of joy, followed by smugness. What 'no interest'? Under the lure of money, she obediently gave in, didn't she?

Instead of signing her name, Yukimiya Natsune's pen reached into her own entry, and under Tsukimiya Aoi's confused and incredulous gaze, she crossed out the most tempting two and three.

She rewrote two entries.

Second, apart from the three points on the previous page, Yukimiya Natsune has no obligations and enjoys the right to freedom and independence.

Third, if the rights to freedom and independence are violated, Yukimiya Natsune has the right to terminate the treaty.

She looked up at Aoi Tsukimiya and Chihaya Asakura, and after confirming that they had no objections, she signed her name.

This was a formal agreement with no legal binding force; it was merely a statement of intent. Yukimiya Natsune didn't take her share and left the coffee shop directly.

The shop door closed, and the bell rang crisply.

Asakura Chihaya put away the treaty and exclaimed, "Miss Yukimiya is such a good girl."

"Ignorant," Tsukimiya Aoi disagreed. "She doesn't understand what those two lines represent at all!"

Chihaya Asakura declined to comment and asked Aoi Tsukimiya if she wanted to go to the convenience store.

"I'm not going. I get angry just seeing her in that shop assistant uniform," Tsukimiya Aoi resolutely refused.

"However," she paused, "the oden over there is quite delicious, let's go try it later."

I can't go now, I have to wait a while. I have to wait for Yukimiya Natsune to put on her shop assistant uniform and start work. Tsukimiya Aoi doesn't want to just stand there waiting at the counter.

Chihaya Asakura sighed softly.

My wife is always saying one thing and meaning another, especially when it comes to my daughter.

The coffee on the table had gone cold, so she replaced it with a fresh one, her gaze drifting to Tsukimiya Aoi's fingers. Her pale fingertips tapped lightly on the coffee cup, a sign that the lady was in a very good mood.

……

As soon as Yukimiya Natsune entered the convenience store, Asakura Airi went to greet her.

A stylish girl dressed in a lively and energetic manner, with a smile matching her outfit, took Yukimiya Natsune's arm and said, "Welcome home!"

This is a line that often appears in Japanese dramas and anime. It is used when a loved one returns home. The convenience store is not Yukimiya Natsune's home. Asakura Airi is just being silly and trying to liven up the atmosphere.

Before Yukimiya Natsune could answer, she blurted out, "Yukimiya-chan's boyfriend is so handsome! I give him full marks! I'll always support you two!"

After a pause, she continued, "How is Lady Moon Palace doing? Did she frighten you?"

Recalling Tsukimiya Aoi's flustered and pitiful appearance, Yukimiya Natsune replied, "It went well; the conversation was very harmonious."

"That's good." Airi Asakura quickly replied, glancing down at her phone. "I have to go back now. We'll talk about this properly another time!"

After saying that, she gave Yukimiya Natsune a dramatic hug, quickly walked out of the convenience store, and disappeared into the crowd on the street.

Yukimiya Natsune watched her back for a while before heading towards the changing room.

Shiraishi Saku followed him to the changing room.

Yuko Takahashi grabbed the boy by the collar and forcibly detained him.

"Asakura-chan is such a good girl," Yuko Takahashi remarked to Saku Shiraishi.

More than half an hour ago, she told Asakura Airi the cruel truth. The girl did not sob, did not accuse, and did not even leave. She was silent for a while before she smiled again.

She waited until now, until Yukimiya Natsune returned to the convenience store, until she fulfilled her promise to wait, and until she completed the pretense that nothing had happened, before leaving this place of sorrow.

"Don't you have anything to say?" Yuko Takahashi stared into Saku Shiraishi's eyes.

"Natsune is still waiting for me." Shiraishi Saku pointed to Takahashi Yuko's finger, signaling her to let go quickly.

"You bastard!" Yuko Takahashi punched the boy and then let go.

Shiraishi Saku only found this class's most beautiful girl troublesome. He had no interest in her, and her approach caused him a lot of annoyance.

However, from the perspective of the young girl, Yukimiya Natsune, Asakura Airi is a good friend. Like Takahashi Yuko, she thinks Asakura Airi is a good girl.

It was precisely because of the girl's body's preference that Shiraishi Saku went to great lengths to pin the blame for revealing the truth on Takahashi Yuko, in order to avoid affecting Asakura Airi's relationship with the girl.

In his eyes, Asakura Airi's label is—Yukimiya Natsune's friend.

He and she are both a whole and individuals.

Shiraishi Saku has two partners, Tanaka and Inoue, and Yukimiya Natsune should also have one, while Asakura Airi would be quite good.

He was eager to see if, with Airi Asakura by her side, the girl's body could show more personality and get closer to the identity of Yukimiya Natsune.

The situation with Tsukimiya Aoi also involved some of these considerations.

As he approached the changing room, Shiraishi Saku placed his hand on the doorknob. A ticking sound came from inside, indicating that the girl had unlocked the door.

Shiraishi Saku pushed open the door and entered. Before he could even close it, the girl hugged him from behind.

Waves surged against his back.

"Asakura looks very sad," said Yukimiya Natsune.

Shiraishi Shuo closed the door, turned around and stroked her blonde hair: "She'll forget about it in a while, hurry up and change your clothes."

The girl stood up straight, opened her arms, and Shiraishi Saku took off her coat and put her in an employee uniform.

As the two walked out of the dressing room, a small line of customers had already formed at the counter. Yuko Takahashi posted the news of her couple's mascot returning to her fan group.
