I Became a Spirit in Date A Live, but Refuse to Date

Lingmeng merely scratched her cheek nonchalantly.

"Oh, come on~ It's called a couples' drink, so of course two people share one glass~"

There were indeed two straws in the glass, intertwined to form a heart.

"Mm... so that really is how it works...?"

"Hehe, why else would I have picked it~?"

Lingmeng stuck out her tongue playfully as she spoke, looking rather cute.

Then she gently closed her lips around one straw, her eyes sparkling as she gazed expectantly at Shiori across from her.

Ah... I'll just have to bite the bullet...!

With that thought, Shiori-chan unhesitatingly closed her lips around the other straw.

They both sipped gently, and the drink in the glass slowly dwindled.

The transparent, heart-shaped straws also turned a rosy red as the drink flowed through them.

This was their first time drinking something this way.

Both Lingmeng and Shiori felt at least a little embarrassed.

Perhaps it was all in their heads, but the drink tasted especially sweet, and surprisingly delicious.

Lingmeng and Shiori continued sipping their drink while gazing shyly at each other.

Before long, the once-full glass was empty.

They released their straws at the same time and shyly turned their heads away.

A few seconds later, Lingmeng spoke first to ease the awkward atmosphere.

"Are you hungry...? Should we order something to eat?"

"Mm-hmm... anything's fine."

"Here, Shiori~ Say ah~"

Lingmeng scooped up a spoonful of omelet rice and held it to Shiori's lips.

Shiori hesitated at first, but still opened her mouth and took a small bite of the food Lingmeng offered.

"How is it? Is it good?"

Lingmeng drew back her spoon and propped her cheek on her hand, asking with an adoring expression.

"Mm... it's really good."

Shiori swallowed the food
