"Miss Shimizu, you’ve arrived."
Hanai Ishishū walked out from the pavilion, greeting her with great respect.
"Mm." Chiba Shimizu nodded, then moved the little girl beside her to the front.
"Eh?!"
Misaki Saki blinked her eyes, the adorable little figure resembled a precision-wound puppet.
The little one was bewildered, as if she had been stuffed into a car.
Unwittingly brought over, all packaged up.
"Take her for a stroll through the estate, she is our most esteemed guest."
Chiba Shimizu spoke, each word deliberate.
"Certainly, Miss."
Hanai Ishishū promptly nodded and agreed.
He then led Misaki Saki down.
At this, the young maids couldn’t help but get starry-eyed.
Not only was the little one cute, but her status was surprisingly high, and she looked bewilderingly adorable, they loved it!!
Misaki Saki was thus led away in a daze, could someone tell her what on earth had happened?
What had transpired?
After arranging everything, Chiba Shimizu then proceeded to enter the cool pavilion below.
Without hesitation, under the slightly expectant gaze of Chiba Seiryo, the girl directly sat beside....Haruka Yuzan.
"Why did you bring Misaki too?"
Haruka Yuzan asked the person beside him with some curiosity.
That little one’s bewitching laughter, even from dozens of meters away, he could hear it clearly.
"I had intended to go to the café with Kazumi Misaki, but....…"
Chiba Shimizu reached out to rearrange a strand of hair that had fallen beside her ear and spoke softly.
The conversation wasn’t finished, but Haruka Yuzan could guess what came next.
It was just that Chiba-san didn’t feel at ease with Misaki Saki going to the café alone. Since there were not many pressing matters, she decided to bring her along.
Without saying a word, the girl picked up the tea brewed by the maid and took a gentle sip.
"However, why did you come over, Chiba-san?"

Haruka Yuzan was still somewhat puzzled.
In his view, the girl was utterly reluctant to engage with Chiba Seiryo, not to mention coming back.
"They said you were here."
Chiba Shimizu stated flatly.
A single sentence could signify many things.
This warm sense of safety made Haruka Yuzan feel a comforting warmth.
However, a certain sister nearly ground her molars to dust.
"If Haruka Yuzan weren’t here, wouldn’t you come back on your own?"
Chiba Seiryo bit her teeth in frustration.
Clearly, after being hurt, the tsundere sister became... impatient.
Haruka Yuzan felt a bit speechless as he massaged the corner of his eyes; with this attitude, expecting Chiba-san to forgive seemed unrealistic.
As a sister, shouldn’t she understand Chiba-san’s personality better than him?
As expected, upon hearing her sister’s words, Chiba Shimizu’s beautiful eyes immediately turned cold. "What do you think?"
The atmosphere became rather awkward for a moment.
Helpless, Haruka Yuzan could only step in to smooth things over, "Let’s talk about something else, shall we?"
"Hmph!"
Chiba Seiryo huffed, but nevertheless picked up the teacup and started to drink.
No, she couldn’t lose her temper, she had to restrain herself, just like the last time they met, just control it a bit.
Yes, restrain....
The young lady knew now wasn’t the moment for her possessiveness to flare up. Although it was hard to bear, it all paled in comparison to her sister not coming home, she could endure it all.
Meanwhile, Chiba Shimizu retracted her gaze, behaving as if nothing had happened, and continued to savor her tea.
"Chiba-san, have you lived in this estate since you were young?"
Haruka Yuzan attempted to change the subject.
Chiba Shimizu gave a nearly imperceptible nod.
"Then, if it’s not too much trouble, may I have a look around?"
Haruka Yuzan asked with a smile.
The three of them arrived at the third floor of the villa.
Along the way, numerous pretty girls dressed in black and white maid outfits greeted them with a bow.
The artful design left the neckline with little fabric, revealing a glimpse of smooth, fair skin with just a slight bend.
Of course.
Haruka Yuzan, who had already seen his fair share of the world, naturally wouldn’t react like those surprised anime protagonists.
In fact, he didn’t even take a second look.
Walk with integrity, sit upright!
The girl’s room was very clean and very simple.
So simple that it seemed mismatched with the grandeur of the estate.
When Haruka Yuzan entered, he could smell a faint scent of freshness; Chiba Seiryo walked ahead, introducing, "This is Chiba Shimizu’s room."
"Mm....."
Haruka Yuzan nodded, and then.....
He realized, this place bore no traces of Chiba-san’s life.
Having lived here her entire life, yet not even a hint of a milestone in her growth could be seen?
It was all too consistent with Chiba Shimizu’s personality.
Chiba Shimizu remained silent, simply standing at the doorway of the room; she didn’t even plan to go in for a look.
Obviously, there was nothing in this room that she felt nostalgia for.
At this moment, Hanai Ishishū approached.
"Miss, your movie tickets have been purchased."
As he spoke, he handed her three tickets for Starry Sky Cinema.
Chiba Seiryo furrowed her brows slightly, "When did I ask you to book them?"
"It was me."
Haruka Yuzan said with a smile, "Since there’s nothing much to do, why not go watch a movie together? We can also stroll through the mall afterward."
"We have a home theater, why go outside?"
Chiba Seiryo was truly baffled, and she was quite against going to such public venues.

"Watching at home, where’s the atmosphere of a movie theater?"
Haruka Yuzan shrugged, "Besides, is it really about watching the movie when you go to the cinema?"
