Young Lady Orders Kiyoharu to Accompany Her into the Fitting Room

Is it possible that after being engaged to Airi for three years, Kiyoharu's youthful deep affection has been worn away by her temper, and he's started to long for a gentler girl?

Dreams are amplifiers of a person's inner desires. Kiyoharu reaching out his demonic claws to her in the dream proves that he has feelings for her!

If that's the case, Shimaura Hitomi should try harder to give Kiyoharu the wonderful experiences he desires in his dreams.

Honestly, Shimaura Hitomi has always felt that Kiyoharu and Airi haven't been living very comfortably. The so-called model couple is more about Kiyoharu's tolerance and indulgence towards Airi. But no matter how mature a man is, doesn't he also want to be cherished?

Humble as she is, she also hopes to help the man she secretly adores.

With this thought, Shimaura Hitomi put her mind to work, carefully considering how to steal a catalyst for entering Kiyoharu's dreams without alerting Airi.

The higher the privacy attribute of an item, the higher its level as a catalyst.

While shopping earlier, Shimaura Hitomi quietly opened the "Dream Wanderer" app and scanned all of Kiyoharu's belongings from head to toe.

That carbon pen is a Level 1 catalyst, Kiyoharu's shirt is a Level 2 catalyst, and his watch is a Level 3 catalyst—likely because he habitually wears it every day.

And the highest-level catalyst on him is actually the one inside... cough cough, that's absolutely impossible to steal!

Even Shimaura Hitomi, a seasoned offender, instantly dismissed the highest difficulty option.

The watch is too valuable; losing it would also alert Kiyoharu, which is not ideal.

Ultimately, Shimaura Hitomi set her sights on Kiyoharu's phone... case.

Kiyoharu's phone case looks a bit worn out; he seems too lazy to replace it. Kiyoharu has always been simple when it comes to daily necessities, and in that regard, he and Shimaura Hitomi are quite compatible.

However, Shimaura Hitomi still needed to style her hair after washing it, meaning she'd have to wait a long time before making her move.

After enduring this period, Shimaura Hitomi discovered that the long wait was not in vain.

When Tony the hair stylist finished styling her hair, Shimaura Hitomi was stunned as she looked at the unfamiliar beautiful girl in the mirror.

"Is... is this still me?!"

They say a girl's appearance is half determined by her hairstyle. The saying might be exaggerated, but it does greatly affect the overall impression.

Tony, an internationally top-tier master stylist, perfectly solved Shimaura Hitomi's problem of having thick, dense hair that made her look listless, instantly making her cute, round face radiant.

At the same time, Kiyoharu glanced at the system; Shimaura Hitomi's charm had soared directly from 65 to 75 points.

As expected, he wasn't wrong; women with good foundations are indeed amazing!

"Little Hitomi looks so much prettier after her hairstyle! And it doesn't feel abrupt at all, like you imagined!" Airi was even happier than Shimaura Hitomi, acting like a little girl playing with a doll.

"Really...?"

Shimaura Hitomi cast a slightly hesitant glance at Kiyoharu, who gave her a thumbs-up: "Young Lady is right!"

To Shimaura Hitomi, this purely tactful remark carried immense weight. A blush spread across her cheeks, and she shyly nodded, agreeing to Airi's suggestion to pick out clothes for her while the mood was right.

Kitahara Ayano, who witnessed Shimaura Hitomi's emotional change from the side, secretly let out a mocking chuckle.

Airi, Airi, do you really think Shimaura Hitomi is a harmless little rabbit?

You've unknowingly raised a tiger that could threaten you, hehe~

Kitahara Ayano doesn't mind Shimaura Hitomi also coveting Kiyoharu. As a pure entertainment seeker, the more factors that tempt Kiyoharu into betraying Airi, the more pleasure it brings her... of course, it also provides her with more material for her creations.

In this regard, Ayano believes she is far more tolerant than Airi. Airi clearly doesn't like her fiancé, yet she strictly controls Kiyoharu's interactions with other women, which is quite consistent with Airi's possessive nature since childhood.

The three best friends walked side-by-side in the front. Even in a luxurious mall frequented by handsome men and beautiful women, they formed a scene that drew frequent glances.

Kiyoharu followed behind them, the blood surging within him not yet subsided. He even felt a slight soreness, and a restless agitation from his "dragon rising" that couldn't be released.

Damn Kitahara Ayano!

Don't worry, once I master the art of hacking, I'll firmly grasp the handle of you, the Canvas Devil, and bully you relentlessly.

Kiyoharu figured Ayano had played enough and wouldn't cause any more trouble, but in reality, Ayano had merely switched targets temporarily.

She observed Shimaura Hitomi's eyes constantly drifting towards Kiyoharu and the nervous expression that appeared on her face from time to time. This led her to boldly guess that Shimaura Hitomi was plotting something mischievous.

Shimaura Hitomi still didn't dare to wear overly flamboyant cross-dressing styles. In the end, the three of them chose a sportswear brand, which was more mature compared to Shimaura Hitomi's usual "student attire."

I wonder if this will be enough to reach the remaining 5 charm points needed... Kiyoharu stared blankly at the wall, bored, when he saw Airi approach him while Shimaura Hitomi went to the fitting room.

"Speaking of which, I should thank you for little Hitomi. When I took her out alone before, it was always hard to persuade her to change. It seems she really values your opinion as an elder!"

"It's not that much, I just offered a small suggestion. It's more because you guys support her, right?"

"But according to the controlled variable method, you are the truly effective variable, Kiyoharu-kun~ It seems you've gained an unusual standing in Hitomi's heart without me knowing."

A jealous glint appeared in Airi's peach blossom eyes. However, Kiyoharu was very sure that this wasn't ordinary jealousy, but rather dissatisfaction that her plaything had escaped her control and was acting unexpectedly!

Kiyoharu knew from the beginning that the Red-Eyed Devil's possessiveness was quite twisted, which is why he insisted on signing a thick Agreement before the engagement to protect his own rights.

Hahaha, I'm not your real fiancé, so it's not strange that I'm important in Shimaura Hitomi's heart, right? After all, they've been in a senior-junior relationship from high school to work, just pure good friends.

"You're overthinking it. Do you want to buy a pair of yoga pants?"

"Huh?"

"These sharkskin pants from this brand are nice and suit your temperament very well. Plus, they offer support and compression, which provides protection during exercise."

Kiyoharu stood on tiptoe and took down a pair in her size from a higher rack behind Airi.

His arm went over the woman's head. Because they were a bit close, Airi could hear his breathing. The familiar, slightly bitter scent wafted into Airi's nostrils again. Airi was certain this was Kiyoharu's natural scent, as it had barely changed even after she had ordered him to switch his toiletries several times after they got married.

This scent easily stirred up that strange feeling within Airi. Just like now, when Kiyoharu brought the shark-patterned shorts in front of her, Airi was almost stunned.

"Young Lady, why don't you try them on? They're definitely reliable."

"Tsk... that makes a bit of sense. But since it's Kiyoharu-kun's suggestion, I'd like Kiyoharu-kun to accompany me to the fitting room together."

Though she said "like," she actually dragged Kiyoharu along unreasonably, leaving him speechless.

This wasn't even fishing anymore; it was a straight hook with bait already out. He didn't know what possessed the Young Lady lately, always using him to test her charm.

Kiyoharu had only intended to distract Airi, but he hadn't expected to fall into an even more awkward situation.

Sigh, after just being played with by Ayano, now Airi was coming at him too. Life was truly hard!
