After breaking up, my ex asked me to win her back-Chapter 355 - 354 What are you guys doing!

Noon, lunch break.

Kagura Hikaru was picking locks with Kohinata Motoyo, his hands deftly maneuvering a paperclip.

Click, click, thud.

It took merely two seconds to pick the lock on the old school building's rooftop. Kagura Hikaru pushed open the door and showed his girlfriend the expansive view from the top.

"Wow~ The view is so wide, the higher places are indeed better."

Kohinata Motoyo walked onto the rooftop with her hands behind her back, smiling. She looked out at the distant cityscape from the edge, where there was no protective netting, her skirt fluttering in the wind, as if she could see something, yet as if she couldn't.

She didn't mind and just quietly stood and gazed into the distance.

"How did you find this place?"

Kohinata Motoyo asked without turning her head when she heard Kagura Hikaru close the door and walk over.

"Once when I was feeling down, Ai Cheng brought me here. Originally, it was a secret spot occupied by the Astronomy Club. Don't tell anyone, okay?"

"Of course not." Motoyo tilted her head, "I was just thinking, when I become the Student Council President next year, whether I should develop this place a bit. But since it's a secret hideout, maybe not."

"The election for the next term hasn't even started yet and you already think you've won?"

"Just confidence, don't you like it?"

"That question is a bit complicated."

Kagura Hikaru embraced her from behind, wrapping his arms around her waist.

Motoyo placed her hands over his, cooing, "After all this, you still won't say you like me?"

"If you'll let me move into your house, I'll say it."

"Eh? Wouldn't that be cohabitation?"

"Is that okay?"

"But what about your aunt and uncle....."

"They'll agree. After all, it's just next door. We can have dinner at my place, and then go over to sleep."

"Mm, okay." Motoyo quietly agreed.

Things were moving somewhat fast.

But it wasn't like it was not okay—in fact, it was exactly what Motoyo had wanted.

After all, they had already crossed that line; were these matters not just a matter of time?

"Thank you, I love you," Kagura Hikaru said, lowering his head to kiss her cheek, then patted her shoulder, signaling Motoyo to turn around and pointed towards the top of the stairs on the rooftop: "You can go up there, it's the highest point of the old school building."

With her hand touching her slightly flushed cheek, Kohinata Motoyo's lips curved into a blissful smile, "Then I must experience it."

Climbing up the somewhat rusty ladder, they reached the highest spot. Kagura Hikaru leaned over and stretched out his hand to pull Motoyo up.

"Wow, it's really high up here," Motoyo exclaimed.

This place felt like the very tip of Tokyo Tower's lightning rod, a not-so-large platform with an unobstructed view of the surrounding scenery, yet also with a keen sense of danger as if one could fall at any moment.

Both of them had good balance and didn't show any signs of weak knees, naturally sitting down and dangling their legs over the edge.

"No wonder Mister Hikaru recommended this place to me, I kind of get it now." Motoyo gently swung her slender feet back and forth and softly brushed her hair behind her ear, looking up at the blue sky.

The breeze blew her long hair, bringing with it a whisper of fragrance.

Kagura Hikaru reached out to catch a strand of her hair, feeling serene.

Motoyo had never dyed her hair, but it naturally bore a tint of brown, which was very pretty. Coupled with her gentle temperament, it gave her a maternal feel.

Virgin Mary.

For some reason, this phrase popped into Kagura Hikaru's mind.

In modern times, 'Virgin Mary' had become warped into a derogatory term, but at its core, it symbolized a pure and kind mother.

Perhaps the first woman ever to be called by such a name was someone like Kohinata Motoyo.

"Let's eat, I made you the grilled meat you like."

Kohinata Motoyo smiled as she took out a slightly luxurious lunchbox and handed it over with a show-off flair.

She had woken up early in the morning to make it herself!

The Virgin Mary's pure aura was immediately disrupted by the worldly atmosphere.

However, Kagura Hikaru was not disappointed. He found his girlfriend's daughter-like behavior quite amusing, nodded as he accepted the lunchbox and chopsticks, opened the lid, and shared the meal with Suse.

They were both very well-mannered while eating, without any feeding each other scenes.

Suse was rather particular about etiquette. Her upbringing had ensured that she would never behave as wildly as modern high school girls.

As for the behavior of secretly rubbing legs under the table at the wedding banquet... it could only be said that the thought processes of women in love can be somewhat different.

But now that she had secured her boyfriend, Suse wasn't in a rush anymore. She began to show her more reserved side.

In front of Kagura Hikaru, she was still quite conscious of her image. She couldn't let him think she was desperate; that would be disastrous.

Her mother had always told her that people are greedy and will not cherish things that come too easily. The same applied to love; one shouldn't always be too eager to please. It's important to show a proper amount of self-respect so that a relationship can last longer.

She selectively forgot her past outrageous deeds, otherwise, she would have realized that her goody-two-shoes image had long since crumbled in the eyes of Kagura Hikaru. It was just that he no longer minded.

Suse had not only prepared the meal but also a thermos of tea.

Kagura Hikaru knew after one sip that it was the most expensive Hua Xia Pu'er tea. A small packet could equal a middle-class family's monthly salary, yet here it was being used for a lunch drink in a thermos... Well, it's not abnormal, provided you're as wealthy as the Kohinata family.

Speaking of which, wealthy families tend to care a lot about saving face. As a commoner dating Kohinata Motoyo, he figured that winning over her parents might not be easy.

Kagura Hikaru sipped the tea thoughtfully.

"What are you thinking about?" Seeing him lost in thought for a while, Suse leaned over and asked curiously.

"I'm thinking of expanding my business."

"What business?"

"You've probably heard that I've been writing songs for Ai Cheng and the others."

Kagura Hikaru was referring to his previous signing with a music company to become a songwriter.

During that time, while he was troubled by side effects of his Foresight ability, he occasionally wrote songs and sent them over. Each brought him a sizable income, and his fame was growing day by day.

As someone close to Kagura Hikaru, Suse was well aware of this, and she felt proud of his status as a nationally known songwriter. She looked up and said, "The business expansion you mentioned, does it mean you want to collaborate with more bands? If so, I can help you with contacts."

"Relying only on songwriting is still too slow," Kagura Hikaru pondered, "Going into business? No, stock trading is obviously faster..."

"Mister Hikaru?"

"Sorry, I was talking about making money."

"Do you really need money, Mister Hikaru? I still have three hundred million in savings; is that enough?"

"It's not just about the money. What I want is social status," Kagura Hikaru turned and looked at her. "Otherwise, I'm afraid your aunt and uncle might have objections, worried that I won't be able to take good care of you."

"What are you talking about?" Suse chuckled.

She hadn't expected her boyfriend, looking so solemn, to be thinking about such matters. She found it both funny and reassuring.

Patiently, she explained to Kagura Hikaru, "Our family doesn't care about these things. In fact, if you, Mister Hikaru, are willing to marry into our family, it wouldn't matter if you don't work at all. My wishes are what matter the most."

So, the Kohinata family was rather progressive?

After seeing too many messy stories about wealthy families, Kagura Hikaru thought he would have to go through some drama like 'take five million and leave my daughter.'

"Moreover, I wouldn't be fond of someone without talent. My family knows this well, so they've always been reassuring in this regard," Kohinata Motoyo said with a laugh, covering her mouth, her eyes curving into crescents with amusement.

What initially attracted Suse to Kagura Hikaru was his talent in acting. As he entered high school, he began to exhibit a kind of versatility in his talents comparable to that of Da Vinci, which tickled Suse's fancy even more, made her increasingly like him, and spurred her desire to possess him. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

For her, Kagura Hikaru was like the treasure guarded by an Evil Dragon—a pursuit in life.

As the couple exchanged their affections and discussed going to see her parents that evening, the rooftop door suddenly creaked open, pushed by a girl in a school uniform.

She noticed a few legs protruding above and looked up to see their faces.

It was none other than Ai Cheng Karen, who had intended to sneak up for a meal.

"Eh?!" She saw Kagura Hikaru and Kohinata Motoyo sitting side by side, with a lunchbox and a thermos beside them, and her eyes widened with a hint of gloom, "Kagura? Kohinata?"
