Is This What It Means to Be a Big Shot?
While the milk was being boiled, Koushu started work on three sides.
In no time, a simple yet nutritious breakfast set was laid out on the table.
Glancing at the time on the table, Mayumi still hadn't come downstairs, so Koushu decided to go upstairs and wake her up.
Because Mayumi has more to do than just eat breakfast, and considering the time needed for washing up and showering, she's already a little rushed.
Pushing open the door again, he found his lover fast asleep on the bed, just as he had expected. His petite body was curled up in a ball under the covers, which Koushu found quite adorable.
He chuckled and shook his head. This time, he didn't care about the footsteps. He walked to the bedside and pulled back the blanket that the girl had pulled down.
The perfect, delicate body that could only be covered by holy light in the anime was presented before Koushu's eyes.
He felt that the anger that had subsided last night was starting to surge back up again.
He used to think he had pretty good self-control, after all, he had faced quite a few temptations in the past.
He still had no interest in those things; otherwise, he wouldn't have remained so childlike until just a few days ago.
But ever since he broke his vow of celibacy, he found that his self-control, which he was so proud of, was getting worse and worse, especially when he was with Mayumi, he couldn't control his impulses.
He silently recited the Heart-Cleansing Mantra to forcibly suppress his urges, then reached out and patted Mayumi's butt.
The sudden attack on my buttocks, coupled with the cool sensation from the absence of the blanket, made me feel a sudden chill.
Mayumi first frowned slightly, then twitched her delicate nose before slowly opening her eyes.
"Is breakfast ready?"
The soft, sweet voice sounded like a weak little animal to Koushu, arousing his desire.
That's what I thought, but unfortunately, time didn't allow it; after all, he wasn't someone's quick-draw expert!
He covered that alluring body back with the blanket to prevent himself from losing control of his impulses.
"It's done, hurry up and come downstairs!"
After quickly leaving those words behind, Koushu headed straight for the toilet downstairs; he needed to relieve himself.
About ten minutes later, Mayumi, looking dazed and confused, came downstairs with her messy hair and yawning.
"It smells so good!"
Perhaps it was the aroma of the food that made Mayumi's eyes, which had been half-closed, open slightly, and her nose twitched slightly.
"It's not that exaggerated, it's just a regular fried egg and jam toast."
Upon hearing Mayumi's exaggerated description, Koushu couldn't help but chuckle.
"It's no exaggeration! There's a saying, 'Beauty is food for the eyes.'"
"Just looking at you makes even a simple breakfast taste much better!"
Saegusa Mayumi Nanakusa rested her chin on her hands, gazing at the man busily preparing breakfast for her in the kitchen.
This is the scene she has always longed for.
As the eldest daughter of the Saegusa Family, she could be said to have everything she wanted from the moment she was born.
But the one thing she never had was the selfless care and love from her family.
She knew, of course, that her father loved her, but ultimately, she would be weighed against his interests.
Therefore, what she has always fantasized about is someone who has no ulterior motives or selfish desires towards her.
They didn't care about her family background, her qualifications, or her abilities; they were simply demanding of her as an individual Saegusa Mayumi.
As the daughter of the Saegusa Family, she had already given up on this unrealistic idea.
She had long been prepared to wear a mask for the rest of her life, to treat a man she might never love with the respect due to a man she could never love.
However, she was still lucky.
Mayumi's gaze softened as she looked at Koushu's busy figure.
"What's wrong!"
"Look at me like that!"
Because it took too long to go upstairs, and Mayumi, the milk that had been warmed up cooled down.
When he finished heating the milk and turned around, he saw Mayumi looking at him with a tender, sedative gaze.
"Kindness-----!"
Mayumi gently shook her head, picked up a slice of toast from the table, spread jam on it, and started eating.
Since Mayumi didn't want to talk about it, he naturally wouldn't ask any more questions. He was just worried that she might choke if she ate too fast, so he pushed the milk in front of him toward Mayumi.
"After you finish breakfast, go take a shower right away!"
I've already prepared your bath water.
"Um!"

After seeing Mayumi off, Koushu finished washing up at home and went out. He was going to his company, FIRE, today.
Because it wasn't a weekday, Koushu arrived in Nara a little faster than usual today.
The person in charge of welcoming him was, of course, Kuki Uichi, the head of FIRE.
However, when he greeted Koushu today, he had a strong sense of guilt on his face.
"Uichi, what are you doing?!"
Sitting on the sofa in the conference room, Koushu looked at Kuki Uichi, who was bowing deeply at a 90-degree angle, and said with a headache.
"I'm so sorry, Young Master Koushu!"
"You've given me so much time, yet I haven't made any progress at all. I truly feel ashamed of the trust you placed in me."
