Of course not!
Amamiya Natsuki had learned all too well how boring it was to soak in a hot spring alone. Obviously, it was much more fun together.
Amamiya Natsuki pretended he hadn't heard and changed the subject.
"By the way, why weren't you there just now?"
"I-I was in the bathroom..." Fujiwara Chika's breathing was slightly uneven as she stammered softly. "Moeha called me... I had my earphones on, so I didn't hear everyone talking..."
"I see."
People in the modern age had become inseparable from their earphones. Many wore them not only when they went out, but even kept them on all night while sleeping.
Amamiya Natsuki turned serious.
"You shouldn't wear earphones for too long, understand?"
"I haven't been wearing them for long." Fujiwara Chika puffed out her cheeks. "I only put them on when I listen to music or make calls... W-wait, President, don't change the subject!"
Fujiwara Chika finally realized what was happening and pressed down firmly on Amamiya Natsuki's right hand, her pretty face flushing red.
"I-I'm going over there!"
Amamiya Natsuki lowered his voice.
"Why don't we soak in the hot spring together?"
"I don't want to." Fujiwara Chika quickly shook her head. "If I keep not going over, everyone will get suspicious."
If it were just the two of them, then fine, they could soak together. But everyone else was there, and she didn't want to get caught!
Amamiya Natsuki settled for less and whispered,
"Then how about twenty minutes?"
Fujiwara Chika kept shaking her head.
"No, I refuse!"
"Then ten minutes."
"I'm not going to believe you, President!" Fujiwara Chika's pretty face flushed red as she couldn't help complaining. "You said the same thing before... and it didn't end after ten minutes at all!"
Amamiya Natsuki looked at her in surprise.
