Chapter 51 Ten Thousand Lies
“Bartender, I’ll have a whiskey on the rocks, and some dark chocolate too.”
Shizuka Hiratsuka waved at Saki Kawasaki.
Looking at the suit she was wearing, Shizuka Hiratsuka thought it fit her quite well.
“Ma’am, are you sure you want to drink whiskey in a rocks glass?” Saki Kawasaki asked with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
Why is my teacher here?
And she’s ordering such a strong drink right off the bat, in a large glass too!
“Shizuka-chan, your drinking style is so…unladylike,” Kojima Kana said to Kawasaki: “I’ll have a margarita, thanks.”
“When you’re at a bar, you’ve got to drink something strong. Whiskey is my lifeblood,” Shizuka Hiratsuka shared her thoughts.
Asakura Yuu walked over at that moment.
“Drink less.”
“…” Shizuka Hiratsuka regretted coming here for comfort.
Her student…
Apart from restricting her from smoking, now he’s even limiting her drinking?..
[If you’re craving a smoke, just suck on a nicotine gum, Hiratsuka-sensei, think about your health for once, okay?]
The thought is nice, but nicotine gum can’t replace cigarettes, you annoying little brat!
“I…” Shizuka Hiratsuka smiled wryly at him: “Just one drink, okay?”
Kojima Kana overheard the conversation between the two and turned to look at Asakura Yuu, and then she was stunned.
When did Shizuka Hiratsuka become acquainted with such a handsome young…man?
He should be an adult since he’s working at a bar, probably a recent college graduate?
‘Shizuka-chan, you…’
Kojima Kana turned to look at Shizuka Hiratsuka.
Does she still need to go on blind dates?
Knowing a handsome guy like him, she should make her move quickly.
Is she afraid of the age gap?
She’s worrying too much!
[46]…In this day and age, there are people who like older women, the “older sister” type.
If you don’t make a move, I’ll have to take action (physically) myself.
Kojima Kana had thought since her student days that Shizuka Hiratsuka would never find a boyfriend in her life.
Femininity?
That’s something Shizuka Hiratsuka is completely immune to.
If she ever develops a femi9 side, the world will probably be on the brink of destruction.
Not an exaggeration at all.
Kojima Kana even felt that this description was an understatement.
“Miss, is there anything I should note about the margarita? Like the proportion of tequila…”
“No need, I rarely come to bars, don’t really understand this stuff,” Kojima Kana’s face turned slightly red under the soft lighting.
This is bad, he’s really handsome.
This is going to be a big problem.
“Alright.”
Asakura Yuu, while mixing drinks, looked at Shizuka Hiratsuka and said, “A single woman not going home at midnight, coming to a bar to drown her sorrows, what’s on your mind, Shizuka-sama?..I’ll send you home later, okay?”
“…” Shizuka Hiratsuka gripped her wine glass tightly.
This little brat, taking advantage of his friend being here, dares to drop the honorifics, quite bold.
He’s got guts, daring to flirt with a teacher!
But soon, Shizuka Hiratsuka’s thoughts took a turn.
‘Kana always says I’m not femi9, thinks I’ll never get married…now’s the perfect chance to prove I’m actually popular, right?’
Although Asakura’s a bit annoying, his looks are top-notch, and he doesn’t seem as immature as a high school student!
Having thought it through.
Shizuka Hiratsuka looked up at him with a hint of sadness, “I had a failed blind date, can’t I even drown my sorrows?”
After saying that, she gave Asakura Yuu a glance.
‘You get what I mean, kid?’
Asakura Yuu quickly blinked.
‘No idea.’
‘…I can pay more.’
‘Deal!’
The eye contact ended, and Asakura Yuu started speaking with ulterior motives:
“It’s all because you rejected me back then, or you wouldn’t be worrying about this now.”
Shizuka Hiratsuka: “…?”
This little brat’s going too far!
Who rejected him?
Kojima Kana chimed in with a surprised tone, “Shizuka-chan, you’ve actually rejected a man’s confession?”
“Hey, that’s hurtful, I do have men chasing after me, you know?”
“Look at that suit you’re wearing…what woman wears a suit on a blind date? You clearly didn’t take it seriously.”
“The school’s been a hassle, parents complaining, mock lessons, and endless staff meetings every week. I’m already giving face by taking time off for blind dates.”
Asakura Yuu had never seen Shizuka Hiratsuka complain before.
It seems this person won’t always maintain a mature status and adult demeanor, but when she’s being childish, it’s also kind of charming…mainly because her face is pretty.
“I get it, I really do. The students at Kawanuma West High are way more troublesome than those at Soubu High School, all problem children, it’s exhausting.” Kojima Kana empathized as a fellow teacher.
“Why didn’t you come to Soubu High School with me back then?”
“I watched ‘Hot-Blooded Teacher’ and really idealized the plot of using love to reform problem students…”
“And then?”
“Heh, ended up using my fists to subdue most of them…”
“Jeez, physical persuasion, even Buddha and Guanyin would shake their heads.”
“Shizuka Hiratsuka does enjoy using physical methods with students, but not as excessively as you.”
“Miss, your Margarita.”
Asakura Yuu pushed the prepared cocktail over.
“Thank you.”
Kojima Kana took the drink, sipped it delicately, and then looked at Asakura Yuu with a gossipy expression, glancing at his chest nametag before asking:
“How did Asakura-sama and Shizuka-chan meet?”
“To think someone would actually pursue Shizuka Hiratsuka and get rejected… how intriguing.”
“A company event, a year ago, a gathering. I remember it clearly.”
Asakura Yuu fabricated the story: “All the women who attended that event were dressed beautifully, and their eyes kept stealing glances at me. She was the only one who remained unmoved.”
“And then? Beguiled? What attracted you to her?” Kojima Kana’s expression was filled with anticipation.
“…Mostly her aura, a unique quality that sets her apart from other women. It was captivating.”
“Yeah, Shizuka-chan is very cool.If she were a guy, she’d definitely be a heartthrob…”
“But unfortunately, she’s a woman.”
“Also, the kind of person who finds even changing clothes for a blind date a hassle.”
“But in the end, she rejected me.Just goes to show, fate wasn’t meant to be.” Asakura Yuu shook his head.
a possibility.’
But there should be no chance for the time being?
This is such a bad start.
Shizuka Hiratsuka regretted her decision just now.
As the saying goes, one lie requires ten thousand lies to cover it up, and Shizuka Hiratsuka couldn’t help but start worrying.
What if.
Of course, just in case.
What if one day I fail at matchmaking again, and that guy Kana won’t make me accept Asakura’s confession…
“Don’t say it, it’s actually possible.”
‘I can’t do it when talking to students about Romance no matter how I think about it.’
